79. Chapter 79

“Thanks for the guidance, Sharks.”

“It was nothing. For those who want to climb the tower for us, we are sorry that we have nothing else to offer.”

‘For the sake of the fisherman… … .’

Sewoon nodded without saying a word.

From the point of view of fishermen, it is a fact that can be misunderstood.

In fact, the only thing Sewoon asked for from Leviathan was the ‘Power of Jealousy’. No other treasures or support were requested.

However, from Sewoon’s point of view, it was only one of the things he did to prepare for the Shinma War. To put it bluntly, the interests just overlapped.

“Go back. I’ll take care of myself from here.”

“Then, I hope to see you in the tower.”

with a plop!

Sharks dived into the sea, sharpening their blue fins.

From his appearance, he did not show any vigilance towards Sewoon.

Rather than vigilance, an appearance closer to respect.

After Leviathan recognized Sewoon and bestowed his powers, his appearance became clearer.

“after… … under… … .”

Sewoon opened his arms wide and exhaled.

As it got out of the sea, the gills on the nape of its neck, as well as the fins and webbed feet all over its body, were gone.

It didn’t feel bad to breathe through the gills, but the fresh air I breathed from the ground was the best.

Looking around, the only thing that seems to be expected is the traces of the tutorial. No players or monsters were visible.

“Soon, shall we go?”

A reward for sweeping various hidden pieces in the tutorial so far. Finally, it was time to go and claim the reward for being number one in the personal achievement ranking.

* * *

It’s already been a while since the tutorial ended.

All the players who successfully passed the fifth chapter climbed the tower, earning their own rewards.

Seun’s clan also climbed the tower under the command of Yoo Seo-ah after waiting for the night.

Rather than waiting blindly, he said it was the right thing to follow his instructions.

In the place where all the players disappeared like that.

“I’m bored!”

“Riel, won’t you come in?”

“Aren’t you going in?”

“Who are you waiting for?”

An elf was sitting against a tree.

Soft green hair resembling a blade of grass, and emerald eyes shining through it.

An elf who reached 2nd place in the personal achievement ranking in this tutorial and signed a contract with the constellation ‘Fifth Day’.

It was Riel Refrain.

“I remember? The human I met when dealing with Drake.”

“of course!”

“I remember!”

“He was a human with a good scent!”

“Bad dragon!”

“I am waiting for that human.”

Sewoon Jeong.

She remembered the three letters of the name clearly, but she didn’t say Seun’s name.

It was because he did not want the spirits to find out that he cared about him.

No, maybe he didn’t want to admit it himself.

“I like it!”

“I like it too!”

“Riel, do you like that person?”

“no it’s not!”

“Riel, you’re mad!”

“You’re mad!”

“cute!”

“Ugh, bad dragon!”

Fortunately, the spirits didn’t hate Seun either. No, on the contrary, until now only humans had appeared, hiding behind Riel or showing hostility, but this was the first time that a wolf showed such a liking.

It was a very awkward situation for her.

That will be too.

‘Before I climb the tower, I’ll pay a duel.’

The reason why Riel was waiting for Sewoon in this place was to cross swords with him.

The number one spot in the rankings that you thought was yours. Because it was Sewoon who stole it.

As soon as the tutorial was over, Seun hid in the sea without a chance to speak.

With the power of his people in the seed of the world tree, he trampled on his goal of always maintaining the top spot.

Of course, it wasn’t just waiting at the entrance of the tower without doing anything.

In the meantime, he communicated with the spirits and improved his spirit power, as well as continuing to train himself in martial arts to fight against Seun.

The purity of mana became more pure, and spirit magic became more dazzling.

More than anything… … .

‘With this, I can’t lose.’

A cane in her hand.

Thanks to the ‘Branch of Yggdrasil’, which was a reward for achieving 2nd place in the rankings in the tutorial, her fighting power was stronger than before.

At first, he suffered a lot to deal with that power, but now he was completely used to Yggdrasil’s power.

-The constellation, ‘The Fifth Day’, comforts you by saying that you don’t have to see him as an enemy.

“… … thank you. Goddess. However, I definitely want to check it out. Is he really stronger than me? Do you really deserve to be number one in the rankings?”

In fact, rationally, I already knew.

The boss monster of Chapter 5. The way Sewoon showed when facing Sea Drake and Darakan was already a level of skill that was impossible to see as a player in the tutorial.

However, she couldn’t admit it. No, I couldn’t admit it.

As the last survivor who crossed over from a destroyed world with the expectations and hopes of his people.

From the start, I couldn’t settle for second place and move on.

Today, after the training was over, I was sitting with my back against a wooden pole and feeling the cool breeze.

“What, you haven’t entered yet?”

“… … I was waiting for you.”

“me?”

“yes.”

Fooling the elf’s sensitive ears, he looked at Sewoon who appeared in front of him like a ghost.

Riel Refrain. She quietly picked up her cane and rose from her seat.

* * *

‘You said you waited for me?’

Quite a bit of time must have passed, I thought there would be no players left in the tutorial. As soon as I arrived at the entrance of the tower, I saw an elf resting under the shade of a tree.

Her pale green hair swaying in the breeze, giving off a picturesque appearance, changed completely as soon as she saw Seun.

Even though he was only holding a staff, it was as if a knight was aiming a sword and requesting a sparring.

‘Could it be because the second place was upset?’

Before returning, I hadn’t run into her much, so I didn’t know much about the player named Riel.

I had only heard rumors that she was climbing the tower to find the ‘Eternal Garden’.

Unfortunately, before Seun’s return, she couldn’t find the Garden of Eternity after all. Along with vicious rumors, it just disappeared at some point.

However, there was only one reason to wait for Sewoon because of her personality, which she felt while fighting against Darakan.

not being able to get 1st place.

I don’t know if it’s competitive or jealous, but it’s probably because of that reason.

-Constellation, the ‘snake surrounding envy’ shakes his head, saying that his eyes are too clear to be called jealousy.

A snake around envy.

It was ‘Leviathan’, the demon of jealousy, the constellation that made the contract in the depths of the sea.

Originally, in the deep sea, it is impossible to receive help from the system, so it is impossible to share sight or send messages like this.

Thanks to the orb imbued with Leviathan’s power, it is possible to share sight and communicate in a limited way.

‘So, is it a competitive spirit?’

First of all, he tried to see the clan members who were worried about him as soon as possible, but an unexpected difficulty arose.

I thought about reprimanding him with words, but judging from her attitude, I didn’t think he would back down easily.

Most of all, I’ve been waiting here since the tutorial was over to wait for myself.

“I understand the situation roughly, but should I ask why?”

Sewoon asked, pulling out a plain-looking sword from his waist.

Thanks to the exhaustion of weapons in several battles, there were not many weapons left.

On the other hand, the weapon she was holding seemed to have tremendous power at first glance.

It is impossible to obtain a wand like that in the tutorial. Besides, it’s a staff I’ve never seen from her when dealing with Darakan.

that means that.

‘It’s the reward for ranking second.’

In other words, she has already obtained the rewards of the tutorial.

Well, it’s only natural that time has passed. Besides simply acquiring a weapon, he must be familiar with how to use it.

“Prove that you deserve to be number one in the rankings.”

“why me?”

“Because you used me to attack the boss monster.”

“It is cooperation rather than exploitation. Didn’t you also receive a share of public merit?”

“If I had caught it by myself, I would have reached the top of the rankings, not you.”

“Is it really so? Do you think you could have caught it alone in the first place?”

“that… … .”

Riel was speechless.

Even if she didn’t answer, Sewoon knew.

Before returning, it was true that she defeated Darakan and reached number one in the rankings, but at that time, thanks to the cooperation of numerous players using the wall as a shield, she was able to deliver a blow to Darakan.

If she was alone, it would be too much for her to hunt Darakan.

“Yeah, it doesn’t matter.”

He knew full well that she was being pushed.

However, thinking about it, there was no reason to reject Dalian. Sewoon had a power he wanted to test before entering the tower.

“Apply for Dalian, I will accept it.”

“Sylph.”

“huh!”

A white wind blew through her legs.

Sewoon seems familiar too. It was the spirit possessed that he had seen while dealing with Darakan.

Taat!

With him, she leaped swiftly forward.

I didn’t expect her as a spirit sage to rush in first, but I had no intention of pulling back.

Sewoon also boldly advanced and blocked her cane with his sword.

Perong!

“Sorry!”

“Let’s play! Let’s play!”

“long time no see!”

However, her attacks were not simply swinging her staff.

It attacked Seun with bursts of flame from the staff, and at the same time, the ground collapsed due to the earth spirit.

If I was even a little late to take my foot off, I would have almost fallen into the hole.

“This is more than I thought.”

Even until she dealt with Darakan, she wasn’t this strong.

She was well aware of her potential through her knowledge before returning, but at this point, it wasn’t the power she was capable of.

Chow ah!

Water spray swirled around Seun, obstructing movement and vision. In the meantime, rocks shot out in all directions in the shape of sharp awls.

It wasn’t just a shot, it was a tremendous speed, perhaps borrowing the power of the fire spirit’s explosion.

Kang, Caang!

Seun skillfully broke his sword and blocked her attack, but there was a problem.

Right, weapons.

Sewoon’s weapon was in poor condition because it was able to block the rock imbued with the spirit’s power.

However, he did not open Mamon’s warehouse.

The goal right now is not to use a Noble Phantasm to blow her away in one blow, but to experiment with new powers.

“I can’t stop this!”

Koo Goo Goo!

When I looked up from the shadows that suddenly cast around me, I saw a huge rock that filled my field of vision.

Apparently, the attacks so far were just a trick to prepare for that attack.

As he moved out of the attack range, sharp rocks were still flying around him.

As soon as she slashed the rocks and escaped the spray, her staff burst into flames and flew into the air.

The moment when a huge rock fell on Sewoon without a chance to do anything.

Wow-

“This is too dangerous.”

The huge rock split in two and boasted a sharp cross section.

In Se-Won’s hand, who slowly escaped from the dust, was a sword with a golden hilt.

– The constellation ‘Crow with its Head Down’ can’t hide its sad expression.

The sword that split the rock, Durandal.

Finally, after finishing the work, Mamon returned Durandal to Seun.

“That black… … .”

“You wouldn’t call it a foul, would you? You’re using that weapon too.”

After saying that, Sewoon held out his other hand toward Riel.

Then, the orb in his bosom vibrated, and blue energy rushed into Seun’s grasp.

-The eyes of envy begin to stare at ‘Liel Refrain’.

The demon of jealousy, Leviathan’s authority.

This is where the real battle begins.
