Chapter 351: Kim Hyuna (1)
This was the moment where I could finally hear the words that Kim Hyunsung had returned from his mouth. He must have worked very hard.
It was evident that he was trying to unlock the treasure chest impulsively without even knowing it in a subtle atmosphere. This short break would give Kim Hyunsung time to think again.
While I was driving him into the wall, an obstruction came out. Of course, it was not the time to say that it was too late.
‘It’s still possible.’
Naturally, I opened my mouth while looking at Kim Hyunsung immediately.
“What you were trying to tell me…?”
“…”
“…”
“No, it’s nothing.”
‘Damn.’
“I think it’s better to tell you later. Others seem to be waiting, too, and some problems need to be solved right now.”
‘I knew it. Fuck, I knew it.’
I wanted to ask one more time. However, I couldn’t just ask too openly. It was unfortunate, but…
‘I guess I could be satisfied with this much?’
In fact, just having thought about revealing the truth at least once was a big achievement to me. I think I knew how he trusted me just by trying to reveal a secret that would be too difficult to tell anyone.
The first attempt was made, so the second and third attempts would appear a little easier. There was still a feeling of stickiness around my mouth, but I had to let the train go for now.
“Yes. Then next time…”
“…”
I noticed a slight nod. As Kim Hyunsung opened the door, I saw the guild members looking at this side, turning their heads.
Of course, the most noticeable person was Park Deokgu, who had shouted loudly. He looked happy for some reason, but it was a face that I wanted to smack.
Jung Hayan, Sun Hee-young, and Cho Hyejin, who had also been hanging around, also had smiles blooming.
“What’s going on, Deokgu?”
“It would be faster to hear from Elios than me. Ahem. It’s good news.”
Despite Park Deokgu’s words, Kim Hyunsung looked quite nervous. It was then that Elios, who was talking with other elves from behind us, opened his mouth.
“I think I have a few things to tell you. First, I would like to apologize again and again for the rudeness from before.”
‘How many times is he going to apologize?’
It seemed like he was really sorry. Well, it was understandable since the elves were known to have a soft personality, but at this point, I was a little tired of it. Anyway, he started opening his mouth with a rather serious expression. There was no need to explain that everyone’s eyes were focused on him. From now on, his answers would determine the path to our party.
“I just received an edict from my father.”
“…”
“To start with the conclusion…”
“…”
“My father decided to accept the Blue Guild’s proposal positively.”
‘Whoa…’
“It was a message to mobilize everything Eberia can do to support the Blue Guild… I think you have to agree to a few terms.”
‘That’s it.’
“It doesn’t matter. You can tell us right away.”
“Ah… Yes. First, it seems that the elves, including me, should move together. To get you guys to move, it’s… I’m sorry.”
“It’s okay. Rather, I want to thank you.”
“Thank you for your understanding.”
“Because it is natural to be nervous.”
“Then… another thing is that there is a clause that we won’t talk about this outside. Of course, this document has no effect, but it would be nice if you checked it at least once. The committee’s position is that they want to be assured even in a formal way… I hope you understand.”
“Of course, I can.”
“And finally…”
“…”
“I would like you to tell the State about what you heard from the shaman. About what Kasugano-nim saw… It may be uncomfortable, but please.”
‘Our Hyunsung is not that good at lying…’
When I turned my head and looked at Kim Hyunsung, I could see him clearly contemplating. The thing he heard about the future through Yuno Kasugano was a lie that I roughly put together.
It was very likely that he hadn’t even spoken with her. It was a moment when I thought it would be better for me to come forward. Kim Hyunsung opened his mouth with a small voice.
“It is the destruction of Eberia.”
“What?”
I could instinctively know. This bastard was not lying now.
‘Was it the first round?’
Perhaps it didn’t matter if I thought so. Elios felt the sincerity in his face, too. I could see him immediately responding.
“Is that true?”
“I am just telling you what I heard. I also didn’t hear the exact timing, but I was told that the Kingdom of Eberia was caught in a war disaster. There will be a great war unimaginable, and everyone, including humanity and these races, will struggle with this place as their final stronghold. However, I have heard that in the end, it will not be able to withstand and collapse.”
At first glance, it sounded like a cult leader shouting about the apocalypse and hurling curses, but his serious expression was making this absurd remark sound convincing.
“Can you explain in more detail?”
“I haven’t heard of the cause or anything else. That’s exactly what I heard.”
“Then the World Tree…”
“It won’t rot because we are here. The future may change, Elios. What she can see with her eyes is not the exact future. Even small actions can certainly change. Just like now.”
‘Is it okay to think that he has grown?’
He was a bit different from the past that used to act by relying on the information from the first round. He was confident that he could step forward and change the future.
I had to nod in satisfaction because Kim Hyunsung’s growth was always helping me. Of course, personal development was also important, but the information he had revealed was also interesting.
‘The last resistance? Union?’
This was not a war between the Republic and the State as it was now. It may probably be about Jin Qing, the masked trash, or an enemy who had not yet appeared.
‘If it really is… is it okay to assume that the rotten World Tree has been resolved before that?’
Of course, it was speculation. However, it was hard to believe that the Kingdom of Eberia, where the barriers sustained by the World Tree, fell and became the place of final resistance. Of course, it cannot be said that the defense here was weak, but it did not feel like Castle Rock or the State, made of high walls.
If the World Tree had completely collapsed yet chose this place as the last place, the first round commanders were indeed sh*theaded.
‘Hyunsung knows how to solve it, and…’
In the context of the situation, it was unknown whether he had been directly involved, but it was correct to think that the World Tree had gotten cured before Kim Hyunsung’s final resistance.
He has at least heard of it. In a nutshell, after the World Tree was healed, there was a fight here, and in the end, humanity had gotten destroyed.
I didn’t know if there were other battles afterward, but the time when Kim Hyunsung returned would not be too far.
There were many interesting things to think about, but there was no time. This was because the atmosphere felt unusual.
‘Sh*t…’
“I see… I got what you mean. I think it’s better to discuss this matter slowly.”
“No. I think it would be nice to talk while moving.”
“What? That means…”
“We will move right now. Elios-nim, I would like you to prepare an elven expedition right away.”
“That’s fine, but… it must have been overwhelming for you to come a long way… if you can just rest for a little bit…”
“We don’t have time to delay. I’ll give you short explanations and briefings while we’re on the move.”
‘You can take a break.’
“Of course, after that, we will give you enough time to rest. All the guild members, please get ready to leave right now.”
“Hyunsung, I understand, but… everyone is very tired now…”
“No. We’re okay.”
“We’re okay, too. We still have enough strength.”
“Well, Ki-mo, Hyung-ssi, and I have plenty of physical strength. Ahyoung and other people are fine, too, right? Rather, I think you’re the one that needs a little rest, wouldn’t it be better to sleep a little? If it feels a little uncomfortable, I can carry you and move. Or I think it’s not bad to put you to sleep with sleep magic and take you. After you wake up, everything will be resolved. Ah! Come to think of it, does Hyung-nim even have to go?”
This was another problem I didn’t think of. As I naturally turned my head, I could see Kim Hyunsung nodding.
“Yes. It may be hard, but I think it would be better to move with Kiyoung. I’ll give everyone just 30 minutes.”
“I’m glad I didn’t unpack. I didn’t think we would move this fast. It’s all because of Hyunsung.”
“I’m ready.”
“I’m ready, too.”
“Me, too.”
In fact, there was nothing to get ready for. This was because, as Park Deokgu said, we literally didn’t have time to unpack our luggage properly. I always thought that Kim Hyunsung was moving in a hurry, but I did not know that this would proceed so fast. I needed time to think, so I opened my mouth, but even that was a futile resistance.
“What about the supplies?”
“You don’t have to worry. My father told me that Eberia would give all the support needed. Maybe my brother is arranging everything.”
“Are you coming with us?”
“Yes. Although I’m weak, I’m thinking of helping. It would be terrible if something happens with the Honorary Cardinal while I’m away. Since there is no one else to treat him except me… I can’t help it.”
“Thank you for your hard work.”
“No. We are very sorry and grateful. But where are we going…”
“I’ll start investigating the fairy forest first.”
“You mean the fairy forest?”
“Yes.”
“We’ll have to brace ourselves and go.”
I spoke to her as I saw her strange face, and I immediately heard an answer.
“Is it a dangerous place?”
“It’s not, but…”
“Yes.”
“Because the fairies love to play around.”
“I’m sorry?”
“Come to think of it, you don’t know much about fairies. Well… they must have been forgotten by the continental people… Of course, you won’t have to worry too much. Although the power of the fairies is special, it does not harm the human body… For example, it’s all about changing the body’s appearance or changing gender for a while. Among them, some do little nasty pranks, but they’re all basically nice.”
This had gotten a bit interesting.
