The Player Hides His Past

Chapter 108: Ego (3)

2nd place in the guild ranking. Union.

Guild Master Liu Jinchun had a goal.

Well take this opportunity to usurp Shining.

The opportunity was, of course, the newly created rupture with a new update.

His goal to overthrow Shining never changed.

However, he couldnt help but take it more seriously this time.

Because Shining was currently staggering like never before.

Rox, you must have suffered great damage in your force.

Jesse Heinness, who was called the second-in-command of Shining after Rox.

[Breaking News] Jessie Heinness officially withdrew from Shining!

She ran away from the fence called Shining.

He didnt know her reason, but he could tell that statement was not a dream.

Shinings stock price plummeted. The fact that Unions stock price conversely rose was the proof.

There is no time to waste in Muon.

The Holy Land of the Goddess Church, Muon.

At first, he assessed its usefulness.

There were many factors that would help the guild in many ways if they had a friendly relationship with the Goddess Church.

However, now that he knew Muon harbored hostile feelings toward humanity.

There was no reason to cling to Muon anymore.

[Mantra Mine Block 2]

[Recommended level: Lv.550]

[Collapse rate 0.8%]

Everyone, enter the rupture!

In the face of a golden opportunity to stand on top of Shining.

Liu Jinchun didnt hesitate.

He entered the rupture with Unions most elite force.

Dont back down!

Clench your teeth and hold on!!

What are you doing, cast magic!

The raid wasnt easy.

Above all, all the monsters appearing in the rupture had ghost attribute.

In preparation for this, they took a potion that gave properties to weapons and made them capable of attacking ghosts.

Theyre too fast!

Damn it, theyre hiding in the wall.

Its not easy to swing a sword because it flies over their head!

Sss

They were moving as if they were toying with a large army.

However, Liu Liu Jinchun had numerous experiences.

From the days when Arcana was just a game until now.

He had experiences that helped Union stand tall as a top-tier guild.

Dont chase them. Stay in line.

It was a tricky pattern.

But hed seen a lot of monsters with much more despairing patterns.

And since this was a great opportunity, he had prepared thoroughly.

We wont do what they want us to do.

Liu Jinchun was confident in a drawn-out war.

Under his leadership, Union calmly attacked the rupture.

And now.

All troops on standby.

To identify the topography of the mine.

Dozens of explorers scattered throughout.

Soon, they returned to the main road holding something.

Ive completed the map.

No matter how complex the structure of the mine was, it was impossible to overcome quantities.

Liu Jinchun looked at the maps that the explorers created by using their skills.

He found a passage that particularly caught his eye among dozens of maps.

There are unusually a lot of weeds that have grown.

Of course, Liu Jinchun didnt think long.

Because he had plenty of hands and feet to suffer on his behalf.

He gestured and a few groups moved quickly.

Ill be back with the information.

They disappeared over the mine with the explorers map.

Soon, good news came to Liu Jinchun.

It was news that the [Iron Master] had been discovered.

It could be said to be the boss monster of the rupture.

All forward!

[Iron Master].

If he knocked that monster down, the rupture would be cleared. If he cleared the new rupture perfectly in a short time, the expectation for guild ranking to change wouldnt be in vain.

There is so much useless trash.

A giant clad in iron armor.

The size and voice.

It was exuding a sense of intimidation.

All forces charge!

Liu Jinchun.

He and other Union players didnt step down.

It was thanks to the special effect of Liu Jinchuns class, [sovereign].

Chief: After the battle begins, the skill Morale Boost is activated on players who serve the sovereign until the sovereign receives the first damage. The effect of Morale Boost is proportional to the sovereigns level.

A huge guild.

The reason why Union could rally around Liu Jinchun.

It was thanks to Liu Jinchuns class called [sovereign].

Liu Jinchun looked at the guild members rushing to the giant.

They are my swords and shields.

It wasnt just all talk.

The experience points they earned.

They were actually coming to him at a certain rate.

Yes, this was the power of the rare class [sovereign]!

That was why Liu Jinchun received full support from China. Of course, Lin Jinchun was also well aware of its weight. So he made a cool judgment.

Argh!

Guild members were falling down.

Liu Jinchun didnt blink an eye.

Swords and shields could be replaced as many times as possible.

But there was only one [sovereign].

No one can replace me.

Liu Jinchun swung his sword and shield.

Never back off!

Thanks to the skill effect of [Chief].

The guild members moved in unison under his direction.

The Iron Master opened his mouth.

Youre the kind of people I hate.

What was the monster talking about?

Despite the bitter words, Liu Jinchuns eyes were not shaken.

Agitated in front of the enemy?

It was impossible for a sovereign.

Even if it destroys me, I wont give in.

What he wished for.

Liu Junchun constantly overwhelmed the Iron Master.

Its durability in getting up again every time it fall down was amazing.

But as he had emphasized many times, it was impossible to overcome quantity.

Crash!

Soon, he heard a sound.

At the same time, the wall of the mine glowed.

It was only then that Liu Jinchun realized.

Was its body a rock?

If he had destroyed the main body from the beginning.

Would he have been able to knock it down faster?

But it didnt matter.

Its fine.

He had plenty of swords and shields anyway.

The fact that [Mantra Mine Block 2] was conquered with the power of Union didnt change.

A message came up.

[Your level has gone up.]

[Your level has gone up.]

[Youve cleared Mantra Mine Block 2 rupture.]

Liu Jinchun smiled with great satisfaction.

Its time to enjoy the air at the top.

*

Its scary. Really.

Lets imagine if I didnt have the [Pentagram of Pure Knowledge].

Of course, I wouldnt have known what ethereal grass was like, right? Then, it would have been hard just to knock down the Iron Master.

I guess I was lucky enough to find out that the ethereal iron was the main body.

Attacking the ethereal iron directly.

Lets imagine I had knocked down the Iron Master.

By destroying the ethereal iron.

It was so terrible that I couldnt help but groan! It was the ethereal iron that could make ego equipment, including an ego sword. It was like smashing it with my own hands.

Just imagining it

It gave me goosebumps. Seriously.

What you dont know wont kill you.

If you dont know until the end, you wont know.

If I ever found out later.

I would have insomnia from that day on.

Of course, I couldnt even guess the ethereal grass monetary value.

Because that information was unknown, like the Ego Sword.

But I could guess this.

[Ethereal Iron]

[Grade: Epic]

[Restriction: None]

[Effect: When crafting, give an Ego to the crafted item.]

[Description: A mineral containing a soul. Its rarity is worthy of being treated as a legend, and its value cannot be dared to be evaluated.]

Indeed.

That great ethereal iron came into my hands.

Yes, it was all thanks to the sword aura.

As I said before.

There were two ways to acquire the ethereal iron.

Either you subdue the ethereal iron.

Or got recognized by the ethereal iron

This was the latter, I was recognized by the ethereal iron.

Even now, your sword aura is as noble as ever Nevertheless, you still have endless possibilities for development.

It was the ethereal irons evaluation of me.

While I was listening to it, I thought it felt familiar somehow.

Come to think of it, it was similar to what Harkon said, right?

I was sure of it before, but only today can I say it with confidence. Sir Hoyeol! You must walk the path of the sword. Talented people like you can be counted on one hand.  No, on three fingers within the continent!

The ethereal iron continued like that.

I have been waiting for someone like you here. Could you please take me to the level of the sword that you will pursue? I will also burn my body so that you can reach the state!

Just as magic had its state.

Swordsmanship must have its own state.

Of course, there was nothing I couldnt do.

Because I have no intention of wasting Granfels talent.

In addition.

Even if it was a waste of the well that had been dug steadily in its own way.

I would have to struggle as hard as I can.

That was how I got the ethereal iron.

Well, I didnt get the experience point.

Breaking the ethereal iron just for the experience point?

What kind of crazy person in the world could do such a thing?

Of course, the results of Iron Masters disappearance remained unchanged.

[Youve cleared the Mantra Mine Block 1 rupture.]

Soon, a message appeared.

The landscape of the rupture collapsed immediately.

Perhaps because it wasnt the first time.

The nymph bowed to me formally.

Then, I hope you are at peace until our next meeting.

Somehow, I felt like her tone of voice was becoming more refined.

I couldnt find fault with the way she spoke.

I summoned the nymph back and found Klee.

Oh, is it over, Chief Lee Hoyeol?

As expected.

Klee was shaken by the collapsing rupture.

Even if she was a skilled mage of the Mage Tower, she must be surprised to see it for the first time. I calmly spoke to Klee.

There is nothing to be afraid of.

Yeah, close your eyes and open them.

Youll be back to reality.

Well, like now.

Amidst the buildings.

I saw the players when I first opened my eyes.

When I looked around, they looked puzzled.

What, its already cleared?

It was surprising.

I was surprised too.

Well, lets just say that thanks to the nymph, I found a shortcut to the place where the ethereal iron was buried. The process to acquire the ethereal iron was much shorter than expected.

Wait, silver hair and that outfit Thats Lee Hoyeol, right?!

Damn it, no wonder.

Lee Hoyeol? When did he enter the rupture again?

The players buzzed.

This didnt happen just once or twice for me.

I didnt have to pay attention to those gazes.

But whos lowering her head next to him?

It wasnt the same for Klee.

No, not only Klee, if the world knew that the Mage Tower had moved. It was obvious that the mages of the Mage Tower would get a lot of attention.

Yeah, therefore.

Is she with Lee Hoyeol-ssi?

I dont know, but shall we get an interview?

Wait a minute, lets take a look

Didnt I accompany her to the towers exit?

Tap tap

I headed straight for the portal.

Lets go.

As soon as I dropped my words, Klee followed suit.

That was enough. Players and reporters, who were interested in Klee, immediately turned around while swallowing their mouths in regret.

Silence.

Keep your formalities and manners.

I wont answer your rude questions.

It was thanks to the consistent attitude Id shown.

Of course, Klee couldnt know that.

Klee seemed puzzled even when we arrived at the Mage Tower through the portal.

But I was the chief, and Klee was a skilled mage. In other words, I didnt have to explain the specific reasons.

Thats what society is like.

In class society, if I say get it done, then you have to get it done.

I shamelessly opened my mouth as I climbed the stairs.

All the schedules were finished in time.

Oh, yes!

I hope this towers exit will be helpful for your research.

No, I hope so.

The state of magic wasnt enough, so now I had to reach the state of the sword.

As my goal was getting bigger, medicine was essential for me

*

The towers exit.

Questions poured out for Klee, who just returned from her schedule.

Skilled mages surrounded Klee.

Their eyes sparkled with curiosity.

How was the world out there, Klee?

What about the rupture? How was the rupture?

No, everyone. Wait a minute. Everyone, please be quiet.

Silence

The one who calmed the commotion was Jibril, who had her hair braided into two pigtails.

From a prestigious family in the empire.

Jibril always had a strong presence among skilled mages.

She cleared her throat and opened her mouth.

Hmm, no matter how curious you are, you have to keep the order.

She continued speaking kindly.

Did everything go well, Miss Klee?

The voice continued as Klee nodded.

You didnt have any problems with Chief Lee Hoyeol?

Ah, thats right!

Then sighs erupted everywhere.

They completely forgot it because they focused on the towers exit itself.

The fact that Klee went to the tower alone with Chief Lee Hoyeol.

Finicky No, the chief is very feisty.

Right? Hes very direct.

Honestly, hes a little scary?

Conversations poured out rapidly.

Shake

Klee, who was silent, inadvertently shook her head.

Miss Klee?

She did it so vigorously that the crowd was shocked.

Everyone had a big misunderstanding.

Chief Lee Hoyeol is not that kind of person!

Klee recalled the towers exit.

He kindly taught her the knowledge of bi-herbs.

He warned her of the attack of the vengeful ghosts.

How many times had she received direct help from the chief?

Not only that, my research

Except for Belliere.

No one was interested in the How to grow bi-herb.

He was thinking about it more seriously than she was.

Jibril sensed something unusual.

What was that reaction, Miss Klee? As expected, did something happen?

Tell me quickly. What is it? Did something happen to you two~?

Klee! Are you really going to keep your mouth shut?

But Klee closed her lips tightly.

It was because she didnt forget what Hoyeol said.

You just have to act formally.

Formally.

I will not talk about anything related to the chief.

However, people misunderstanding Hoyeol.

She couldnt sit back and watch it happen.

Determined, Klee opened her mouth.

Chief Lee Hoyeol.

Yeah, lets just tell the truth.

This wasnt just her imagination.

Klee had watched it intelligently.

The moment she got out of the rupture.

For some reason.

A tremendous amount of attention and gaze was directed at them.

In the midst of confusion, she heard his voice.

Lets go.

Sure enough.

At Hoyeols words, the large crowd split.

It was a sight that had never been seen in the Arcana continent.

It might be different if there was an emperors order

At least Klee had never seen the emperor.

Klee seriously pondered.

Chief Lee Hoyeol was perhaps an aristocrat of this world.

No, he probably wasnt just an aristocrat either.

Wasnt he a high-ranking aristocrat?

With that in mind.

Hoyeols personality, which valued formality, also began to make sense.

Klee continued meaningfully.

Maybe he is a much greater person outside the Mage Tower than inside the Mage Tower!
