The Player Hides His Past

Chapter 125: Infinitely Deep Darkness (1)

The war of nerves between Union and Shining.

Although the tension was cut off by Hoyeols unexpected appearance.

Rox, the guild master of the Shining, didnt feel too bad.

It makes me understand my place in many ways.

He realized it once again.

He felt comfortable being an underdog forever.

Once he bit down, he wouldnt let go.

The position of underdog showed his true nature the best.

In contrast, Dmitry was full of discontent.

Lee Hoyeol, why are you doing this to me?

This was too much!

The angry voice continued.

The demon race must have disappeared too. There is nothing to worry about. Im trying to raise my stock price for the first time in a while. Why did such a monster chase us into the crack where we play?!

Twirl.

Camilla, who was twirling her hair with her fingers, snorted.

Raising your stock price? You were trying to seduce a girl~

What?

Why, did you make a promise? Are you going to say her name in an interview~?

Y-You, how did you know that?

Is it because youre jealous that youre complaining to Hoyeol-ssi?

J-Jealous? Who? Me? Toward Lee Hoyeol? No, not at all.

Pfft

Even though Jessie left the group, things hadnt improved between the two.

He knew there was no point in stopping them.

Instead of mediating them, Rox pointed to Hoyeol.

Hes probably maintaining his sense of battle.

His sense of battle? Him? In a rupture like this?

Hes trying to use as many skills as possible, isnt he?

Is that so?

Open your eyes wide, Dmitry. Dont just look at women~

Hey, you.

[Thefern Fence].

Compared to Hoyeols estimated level, its recommended level was ridiculously low. However, it was the highest level of rupture currently created.

Instead of blaming Lee Hoyeol, I should blame the small container.

Now that the threat of demons had disappeared.

Like [Demon Kings Castle] or [Cracked Dimension Gap] rupture.

There was no rupture to contain Lee Hoyeol.

Rox thought so.

In contrast.

Its unpleasant.

Feeling uncomfortable.

Liu Jinchuns eyebrows twitched.

With the appearance of Hoyeol, all the topics shifted in Hoyeols direction.

This isnt the first time.

Unions achievement.

No, the achievements he made as the sovereign of Union.

Didnt he beat Shining and take the top spot in the guild rankings?

Even if he received attention from the world beyond his home country, it wasnt enough.

The interest in him didnt last long.

Lee Hoyeol.

Indeed.

Every time he accomplished something, Hoyeol was there.

During the [Mantra Mine] rupture, which he was sure he got the first clear of, Hoyeol was ahead of him. Not to mention the [Demon Kings Castle] rupture.

Only ten minutes or so.

Even before Liu Jinchun could leave the guild house.

The [Demon Kings Castle] rupture was cleared and disappeared.

Stare

Liu Jinchun looked at Hoyeol.

Not from a players perspective.

But from his class, a sovereigns perspective.

How on earth did you move the Mage Tower?

If Hoyeols class was [sovereign] like Liu Jinchuns was, it could make sense.

Hoyeols level was estimated to be at least 900.

If he was a 900-level sovereign.

Wielding the Mage Tower as he wished wouldnt be a dream.

However, Liu Jinchun knew.

A sovereign cant do that.

A sovereigns weapon was their servants.

It was neither magic nor sword.

But just look at Hoyeol over there.

What the hell?

He broke through that siege?

How many attack skills does he have? Youre verifying it, arent you?

What? Yes! Im doing that, but its hard to keep up with that speed

Wasnt he dealing with a large army by himself?

Liu Jinchuns mind became confused.

In the past, he didnt think much of Lee Hoyeol.

Individuals, after all, were only individuals.

Liu Jinchun knew his individual limitations.

But before he knew it, the Mage Tower accompanied Hoyeol in his movements.

Not to mention his close relationship with the king of the Yusra Kingdom, Hakuna. The Goddess Church, the Knights of Lionheart, and even the Shadow Mercenary Corps.

Now Liu Jinchun couldnt help but admit it.

Theres Lee Hoyeol on top of Shining.

The sky above the sky.

Wasnt it what they called being the strongest among the strongs?

Now he could understand Roxs attitude.

The reason why a man like Rox evaluated Lee Hoyeol so highly.

Liu Jinchuns eyes burned.

I cant believe I cant even guess the class of such an opponent.

Clench

Liu Jinchun clenched his fist in frustration.

He shouted to the guild members.

There is no time to stay still. Lets go for the attack.

Rumble

Tsk.

Now that he was out of luck, it was going to rain now?

The sky of the rupture was darkening.

Soon, Hoyeol defeated all the scarecrows and collected his weapon.

It seemed he was going to leave now.

Liu Jinchun inadvertently felt relieved.

!

It was only a moment but he thought he was relieved to see Hoyeol leaving.

And he felt a sense of distortion with himself.

Indeed.

Rox and Liu Jinchun.

In the same situation, with Hoyeol in front of them.

Although the two peoples thoughts were completely different.

Soon, their thought became exactly the same.

!

In front of the two people.

No, right in front of every player who entered [Thefern Fence].

A message appeared.

[A dark spirit appears]

A dark spirit?

At the same time, everyones eyes turned to one place.

Towards Hoyeol.

Dont tell me, he came to Thefern Fence for this?

.

.

.

Why was everyone making such serious expressions?

I was concerned.

Did I look too ugly?

Anyway, to them, I was the chief mage just like Marcelo. It must have looked like a fight to the death with scarecrows that I couldnt wipe out in one go.

However.

[A dark spirit appears.]

I swallowed my relief at the message that appeared.

I got surprised for no reason.

Like this, it was a relief.

By the way.

Even if it exploded, it exploded too much.

Peiyans eyes looking at me were quite grim.

Peiyan spoke to me in a very wary voice.

Its a dark spirit.

A dark spirit.

Unfortunately, my knowledge of spiritology was still at a superficial level.

Of course, I didnt know what a dark spirit was.

But I responded brazenly.

I know.

?

This damn brazen face.

But again, it was not wrong.

I knew from the message that a dark spirit had appeared.

I wasnt just rationalizing it.

Because I also noticed it.

No.

My body instinctively reacted first.

To be precise, the mana flowing through my body did.

Right mana.

Yeah, I knew this sensation.

First meeting with Matis.

It felt similar to that time.

if there was any difference.

At that time, if Matis magic tool had responded to my right mana.

Now, in the environment of the rupture, it was the dark spirit that was responding to my right mana.

If you already know, I have nothing to say

Peiyan bit her lips and continued.

As the senior of spirit school, I am entirely responsible for not thinking of this possibility. I will take action regarding this after the situation has been resolved.

Taking responsibility was important.

But who was responsible for this?

Appropriate procedures were needed to determine it accurately.

I followed the procedure and asked Peiyan.

Ill take a look at the situation, Peiyan.

I will tell you as briefly as possible.

Listening to Peiyans story

It wasnt anyones fault, we were just unlucky.

The problem was that the difficult conditions for the dark spirit to appear were met.

I spoke calmly.

There is nothing you should be responsible for. Senior Peiyan.

?

Peiyan was silent for a moment.

It seemed she finally realized what I meant.

She asked me back.

What do you mean by that?

What do I mean?

It was simple.

That meant it was okay since no one was at fault.

Gooo

The right mana that my body responded to.

Just like when I manifested black magic.

I controlled the right mana that was overflowing.

Its not a difficult thing.

Befitting of its name.

Right mana was a completely different concept from mana.

The first meeting with Matis.

Black magic can be manifested even in the state of mana exhaustion.

And after the first meeting.

I grasped the potential of using black magic.

Yeah, black magic was also one of the wells I had dug out.

Of course, black magic was a field whose concept had only recently been established.

But thanks to that, I had read all the books on black magic.

So I didnt move a step.

W-What is that?

The sky darkened.

A black figure rose from the air under the sky.

Was that the dark spirit?

Im sure the message said it was a dark spirit!

Yes?! You want me to get closer and take a picture? No, I dont know how you feel, but Im really scared, okay? Its getting bigger and bigger!

Everyone, check your status abnormality resistance first!

Understanding the situation.

Players started to move around in a commotion.

Players who were quick to turn their heads were prepared for battle.

For example, Union and Shining.

It was not an overreaction.

[A dark spirit appears.]

Since the days when Arcana was just a game.

[Appearance message] existed.

There was a condition for the message to come up.

If you look at the appearance message, its a named mob! Hyungnims and noonims.  From Union to Shining to Hoyeol to spirits to the appearance of named mobs. I thought I was extremely lucky today Dont tell me, today isnt my funeral day, is it?

As the Nettuber player said.

It was a message that appeared when monsters that exceeded the recommended level appeared in the area.

It was not for no reason that the senior of Mage Tower, Peiyan, had a grim look.

But I still didnt move.

Was it because I was feeling confident after hunting the Thefern Scarecrow?

I didnt know about Grandfel but I wasnt that bad at knowing my place.

I stretched both my legs straight to the ground.

There was a separate reason I felt stiff from the waist to my neck.

Therefore, unless you possess the right mana, it is impossible to communicate with the dark spirit. And among the people I know, the only person who possesses that level of right mana is the senior mage of black magic, Matis-nim

Indeed.

Although Peiyan might not know.

I was a gemstone of black magic recognized by the senior mage of black magic, Matis Dean Carl.

Where that right mana come from

I didnt know, and I had no desire to know.

Whatever it is, lets be thankful right now.

Thanks to this, it seemed the battle with the dark spirit could be avoided.

I stopped in my tracks and stared at the dark spirit.

Chief Lee Hoyeol! Its better to widen your distance!

I heard Peiyans voice full of concern.

It was understandable that she was worried.

As Peiyan said.

Very little is known about the dark spirit.

Furthermore, the dark spirit was a unique existence that appeared only when the conditions were met.

You could tell just by looking at the situation.

Ordinary people couldnt even witness spirits in their natural state.

The dark spirit was revealing itself as if to show off.

It means we dont know what kind of danger it is.

But I was confident.

I was certain that I could communicate with this guy.

My right mana responding to it was the proof.

Moreover, I was well aware of the nature of the right mana.

Black magic is simple.

In the private tutoring masquerading as a conversation I had with Matis.

Matis had briefly explained the black magic.

As the darkness is being encroached in deeper darkness. Black magic also pursues more suitable mana. Like what youre seeing right now.

To explain that nature, Matis took out a magic tool.

A compass that responded to the right mana.

Spin

The needle that was rotating between me and Matis eventually turned towards me.

The emotions at that time were real.

It was as if my dark history had been recognized by the black magic, so I felt bitter.

Im glad I didnt show my feelings.

Among attribute magic, it can be said that its properties are similar to fire magic. I even had a conversation with Karimjeva about it. Therefore, I cant tolerate his atrocities even more.

Because of Karimjeva, it seemed only the senior mage of fire magic, Bensch William, seemed pitiful

Anyway, there was a reason for my confidence.

Whether it was because of my dark history.

He was the heir to a great family, but that family was ruined by the demons.

The only survivor of the family, Grandfel Claudie Arpheus Romeo, hereinafter referred to as Grandfel, walked the path of a demon hunter to take revenge on the demons.

Or whether it was because of Grandfels devastating setting.

I possessed a level of right mana that surpassed that of Matis.

Then I opened my mouth to the dark spirit.

Are you the dark spirit?

If communication was impossible.

Like the deeper darkness that swallowed up another darkness.

All I had to was subdue the dark spirit.

I raised my right mana for that purpose.

Ssu?

Did my words reach it?

I could feel the gaze of the black figure.

It wasnt looking at me.

It was looking at the right mana I drew out.

The distance between me and that guy was getting closer.

Wait, is it okay to just watch?

Lee Hoyeol, what is he thinking?

Even if its Hoyeol-nim, the distance is too close?!

Only Haiel was unperturbed among those watching.

But the precarious situation didnt last long.

I heard his voice in my ear.

I obey you.

Wait, what?

I could understand the obedience.

As I said, I knew the nature of black magic.

But what?

Infinitely Deep Darkness.

I-Infinitely Deep Darkness!?

Making me embarrassedly falter,

What else is that weird term?

But I couldnt show it.

There were more than one or two eyes watching.

Infinitely Deep Darkness!

The dark spirit obeys Hoyeol-nim!

As expected, he didnt look for this shabby rupture for nothing.

Indeed.

It was a miscellaneous spirit.

Even without a contract, not only the shape but also the voice.

Even players who lacked communion could perceive it.

Therefore.

C-Chief Lee Hoyeol?

T-The Chief communicated with the dark spirit?

No way!

Needless to say, I didnt have to mention the reaction of the mages, including Peiyan.

I felt like I was really going to die from embarrassment.

The moment I managed to compose myself.

The dark spirit made fun of me again.

Infinitely Deep Darkness.

No, how should I address this guy!!

Only you can unravel the Thefern Labyrinth.

What? Thefern Labyrinth?

Do I have to listen to this spirit until the end?

The moment I was startled by the unexpected comment.

A message came up before my eyes.
