Attack – Variable (2)

On Beatrice’s side, me, Aiden, and Arwell. In this way, it was made up of a total of 4 people and moved.

As anyone can see, there were many people who moved with the layer, but it was possible because they were not searching for battle anyway.

First of all, it’s me and Castell who have the means to resist erosion.

Needless to say, I had the Holy Sword, and Castel was absorbing the erosion with the magic of the water attribute just as it had just been. The prince, who realized this method, was happy that he had other things to do besides the battle that was actually excluded.

On the other side, we had Black Hawk’s equipment, and on our side, where we had fewer people, we had a weapon man and Arwell, so the exploration was balanced.

I want to say .

I don’t know if Layette knows about Beatrice’s family history, but anyway, it was clear that this was decided through conversations with the instructors.

Preliminary planning is simple. Divide into two teams, and if you find a corrupted hero, the plan is to prioritize joining rather than fighting.

Soon, they wished each other good luck and dispersed. The layer team moved in the other direction first, so we had a conversation before moving.

I coughed and told Aiden and Arwell that I had to tell them.

“Hmmm. First, I told Instructor Beatrice about the situation to some extent. So you don’t have to be so nervous.”

Then Aiden panicked and looked at Beatrice.

I was surprised that I told Beatrice that I had not told anyone.

“I know you met a fallen hero.”

As Beatrice further reassured me, Aiden turned to me.

“…Uh, so the team was formed like this?”

“yes. It was the instructor’s intention. There is no need to move with such a small number, is there?”

Meanwhile, Arwell had a nervous expression on his face without saying a word. Beatrice smiled and waved her hand.

“There is nothing to be so nervous about. Because she understood why she hid the fact that she had contact with the fallen hero. Still, I also felt that there were a lot of questionable parts, and above all, the aspiring hero Aiden also cooperated. ”

He says he thought it was a well-grounded decision because ‘Tower’ and Ellen Aiden, the granddaughter of the 50th floor manager, also collaborated.

‘Well, even if you say that, it’s actually because of Drakhan.’

From Beatrice’s point of view, she must have wanted to contact Drakhan first.

The question is how things will go next…

It was certain that at least one battle had taken place. Worst of all, as soon as we come into contact with Drakhan, he recognizes us as enemies and a battle ensues.

Since he has reason and even Beatrice, I wondered if that would be the case, but I couldn’t be sure that there was no chance of that because he was a Drakhan who had something to protect.

Beatrice was talking while I was thinking.

“So you were saying that if you follow me, you can meet Drakhan?”

“Yes···. To be precise, it’s a village guarded by a fallen hero. To be honest, I didn’t think things would turn out like this, I guess I’ll have to call it luck.”

Seeing Aiden speaking shakily, Beatrice raised her hand as if declaring it.

“Then, before that, I have something important to tell you.”

important facts? what are you trying to say Before long, Beatrice coughed and opened his mouth.

“First of all, the fallen hero, Drakhan, comes from the same ‘Beatris’ family as me.”

I shut my mouth at the sudden declaration, and Aiden and Arwell closed their eyes. It seems that it takes time to understand what the story you just heard is about.

Beatrice smiled more bitterly at the reaction.

“So, in a nutshell, it’s my family.”

“That, uh….”

Arwell, who first regained his composure while Aiden stuttered, asked.

“Instructor, are you saying that the fallen hero is your brother?”

“…do you know Jihan?”

Aiden turns his head and looks at me. …No, of course I knew. I can’t say I knew.

If he found out what happened to Aiden that he didn’t know, he seemed convinced that I knew. Hmm, considering the experiences so far, is this a natural reaction?

“Ah, that’s good for me too…”

“It is a fact that the aspiring hero of Jihan did not know. It’s a fact that only a few of my acquaintances know about it.”

Since Beatrice was strong, fortunately, she was able to get over it easily.

By the way, it is surprising that Beatrice confided like this. There was no mention of it in the original.

“But, Master. May I know why you said that?”

“Well, I want to talk to Drakhan first.”

Hearing Beatrice’s words, he seemed to understand the reason.

In the original, Beatrice had thought that killing Drakhan was the only responsibility she had. So there was no need to tell other people about it.

‘I confessed it because I need other people’s understanding now.’

When no one answered, Beatrice continued speaking in a crawling voice.

“I have always thought that ending Drakhan with my own hands is a follow-up to past events. . . . But after listening to the story of the aspiring hero Jihan, I changed my mind.”

Beatrice glanced at me. It seems to be reminiscent of the story about Drakhan I told you.

“I heard that Drakhan, who until now had thought it had been engulfed in erosion, had come to his senses and was guarding a certain village. In retrospect, it would be right not to talk about it now that it has been declared publicly, but I want to talk with him.”

“You mean you don’t want to fight?”

“no. I don’t mean that, aspiring Aiden hero. If things go wrong, I’m ready to point my sword at Drakhan at any time. .

“Um, no. I will follow the instructor’s judgment.”

“So do I.”

Arwell and Aiden nodded their heads as if waiting for those words.

At that moment, Beatrice breathed a sigh of relief.

‘I’m glad.’

I also exhaled inward. Arwell and Aiden also seemed hesitant in subjugating the fallen hero. Maybe it’s because of the town where there are ordinary people.

…then it’s time to check the easter eggs?

The place where Noah Park took the wizards was the forest.

Growing up in the Nether, the tree was so dry that it looked like it was going to die any moment, but on the contrary, it showed a will not to die somehow.

“Hey, it’s inside this forest. Surprisingly close? It’s hard to understand why we haven’t found it yet.”

Noah Park heard the voice and realized one thing.

‘The manager knew about the village’s existence.’

I thought it was deliberately left unattended, but did you not know its location? Or maybe he didn’t tell the wizards even though he knew the location.

Noah Park looked back before moving into the forest. The old man was still walking, supported by his disciple.

“Before that, I have something to do.”

When Noah Park tried to approach the old man, the wizards around him stopped him. He even showed the mana rod drawn by rolling his forearm.

There was an intention to protect the old man, but since he came to the forest, he threatened to attack him if he did.

If it was a wizard who was docile before but quickly changed his attitude, he was like a wizard. And this appearance once again reassured Noah Park’s decision.

Noah Park shrugged and said.

“I just want to make a formal apology for my work. I couldn’t control my emotions.”

“no! Don’t be silly, just do what you have to do.”

A wizard looked at the window that Noah Park was holding with fearful eyes.

Everyone here watched in real time the old man had just been subdued. So, if Noah Park made up her mind, he was aware that he could kill someone in an instant.

‘Is it because of this?’

Park Noah burst out laughing out loud. That smile gave the wizards even more repulsion.

‘Once the school is different…’

When the old man fell, the wizards who came to support him came not from one school, but from several schools. He didn’t know his face, so he wasn’t a mage, but he was definitely a well-known and well-respected wizard among wizards.

‘So you must have come to me as a representative earlier.’

If the old man responds, the wizards here will follow his will.

“Is it because of the window?”

Noah Park said so and threw the spear aside.

Tuoung! The spear fell into the space where the wizards rushed to avoid reaching the spear.

“Is it now?”

And when he raised his empty hands, all the wizards’ impressions were frowned upon.

“I just want to apologize for what happened. Seriously.”

After that, it was the wizards who lost their looks.

The wizards who stood in front of Noah Park made their way out one by one. Of course, the blue-lined forearm was still there.

“Top child…”

The old man muttered in a gloomy voice.

“I want to apologize for what happened. I’m really serious about what I just did…”

Noah Park approached the old man in front of him and slowly bowed his head.

…and at the same time the arm moved.

grasp! Pushing the wizard supporting the old man, he quickly turns behind the old man and wraps his neck.

“That bastard…!”

Together with the cry that they knew it would, they all tried to manifest their magic. No, I meant to.

“Are you all quitting?”

Noah Park, who held the old man hostage, said calmly.

Obviously, Noah Park was empty-handed. So I thought there was nothing to threaten…

At some point, in Noah Park’s hand, a dagger was held.

The wizards stiffened. After this, the only thing that moved was the old man who was caught by Noah Park. The old man struggled to get out, but Park Noah’s strength could not overcome him.

“Top child. What the hell have you been doing…!”

“What are you doing…? How do I trust you?”

“This cheeky…!”

The old man couldn’t let out a voice full of anger.

⎯Fuck.

It was because the chill of the metal that suddenly pierced through his throat gave him goosebumps.

‘Ji, stabbed…?’

The tip of the dagger had already pierced the old man’s neck. Blood trickled down the gap between them.

Noah Park had no intention of threatening with a dagger to her neck.

There are many strange things about magic. I couldn’t afford to give it any chance, so I planned to move with the sword stuck around the old man’s neck.

“Magic has a lot of things I don’t know, so I can’t be vigilant. I’m not sure if I just put it on my neck. It’s not that deep, don’t you worry?”

The wizards couldn’t utter a word.

Rather than harm the old man, it was because he felt a sense of alienation that could not be explained by Park Noah, who did not hesitate to do such a thing.

“It’s been very delayed. So shall we go now?”

“Uhhh…!”

The old man trembles and moves. Following him, Noah Park stepped into the forest with a friendly smile.

We headed straight for the village. It was difficult to find the village hidden in the forest, but I followed the traces left while moving.

Although it was a very subtle trace, it was not difficult to find it in Arwell’s sense.

Beatrice followed behind her and spoke in a long, hoarse voice.

“You mean it was hidden in a place like this and you haven’t found it yet?”

“Iknow, right···.”

Actually, I know why.

I didn’t ask, but there was something Drakhan told me as if passing by. It is the work of Seo Ji-han’s parents that can hide the village like this.

Because it was ‘magic that did not use mana’, he made a strange noise that it was not easy to find a hidden village here.

Well, I think it might be something like ‘magic’ or ‘jinbeop’. conjecture though.

“Isn’t it dark under the lamp?”

“Hmm, indeed. He must have been killed by Drakhan before he even entered a place like this and searched it. By the way, it’s amazing, huh?!”

Whoops! At that time, Arwell, who was leading the way, suddenly stopped, and Beatrice, who was right behind, bumped into Arwell.

Arwell stood and rather Beatrice stepped back. I felt strange and approached Arwell.

“Arwell? what’s the matter.”

“Hey, Seo Ji-Han…”

Arwell’s face was pale for some reason. She couldn’t move, her eyes shocked, as if she had seen something.

“What’s going on? Why all of a sudden···.”

At that moment, a smell that shouldn’t be sniffed hit my nostrils.

Despite the distance from the village, a thick bloody smell lingered in the forest.
