Episode 29. half body (2)

‘Come to think of it, this inspiration… It’s strange that he’s been wandering around for the past 15 days.’

It wasn’t easy to look at Yohan’s face to see what he was doing for the past few days.

I didn’t pay much attention to it then, so why am I so anxious now?

Ignoring Yuri’s frowning expression, Yohan shouted toward the forest.

“Ralph, since you’ve been there, bring some of that!”

Yuri wondered if Ralph would understand this, but to his surprise, the voice came back from the forest.

“Damn, did I come here because I wanted to come? Sending people away and even running errands!”

After a while, I heard an angry voice.

thump-thump-.

The forest shook with a heavy sound.

rustle rustle-.

A huge shadow appeared with him.

“Wouldn’t it be okay for the senior to bring it in the first place?”

“I was going to do that, but I heard some bastard swear at me.”

“Sniff!”

Ralph grumbles but does everything he says.

On his shoulder was a gigantic 5m tall something.

Yuri, who saw that, was troubled.

‘what?’

What is that?

‘ferry?’

Its appearance was clearly that of a ferry.

But the problem is, what is the meaning of a ferry in the midst of these mountains?

also… … .

‘Why is there a handle on the ferry?’

A handle attached to the front of the ferry.

It looked like a handle on a cart.

‘no way… no way?!’

The moment when Yuri kicked off the match with a realization that flashed through his mind.

thud-.

Ralph set down the boat with a handle.

Johann, who quickly climbed on top of it, shouted with a smirk.

“Now, say hello after a long time. This is our newly born Bungbung!”

“… … .”

“What are you staring at? Aren’t you going to crawl into your reserved seat?”

John pointed at the handle with his prosthetic leg.

Yuuri’s expression softened even more.

“… … .”

About half a year ago, Boong-Bung, who had fulfilled his duties and passed away.

And now, looking at Boongboong, who was reincarnated like a dog on a ferry with a handle, Yuri had only one thing to say.

“… f*ck this.”

* * *

It was a bizarre word, but the ferry was going down the mountain.

That too at a fairly quick pace.

While staring at the ‘reincarnated Boongboongi’ who is getting farther and farther away, Muchi blinked her eyes and opened her mouth.

“Yes, Grandpa.”

“huh?”

“How long do I have to go into the cradle?”

“The entry date of the cradle is usually around November 20th. It has always been that way.”

“By the way, isn’t it September 20th now?”

“yes?”

“then… How do you get to the cradle after two months here? hehehehe?! Yu, aren’t you not able to enter Yuri hyung’s cradle?”

From nob le mt l dot com

Muchi’s concerns and doubts were valid.

Even if they moved in a straight line from where they were, it would take eight months to reach the cradle.

That is, assuming that you are riding a horse and running at full speed.

Thus, it seemed physically impossible for John and Yuri to reach the cradle in time.

Ralph smiled as he stroked the head of his grandson, who was constantly tilting his head.

“Muchi.”

“yes?”

“You will go through a lot in your life from now on. hard work, happy work, sad work, etc. There are so many incidents and accidents that happen in the world.”

“yes!”

“But under no circumstances, under any circumstances! There is one thing you must never forget.”

“What is it?”

“Worrying about John Redner and that guy named Yuri is wasting your precious time in the sh*t!”

“… … .”

“It is a thousand times better for your mental health to sleep after washing your feet than to worry about those types of people, ah! By the way! So you must too! Whoops! Be mindful!”

Seeing Grandpa’s strong gaze telling me not to forget anything no matter what happens, Moo Chi nodded his head involuntarily.

* * *

Chow-.

The ferryboat, which was moving quickly through the current, slowly slowed down and reached the riverbank.

Inside, Johan Redner, a one-legged old man with a prosthetic leg, lay with his legs crossed.

Place a fluffy blanket by your head, arms clasped behind your head.

hehehehe-.

Yohan holds a long blade of grass in his mouth and even hums.

The long blades of grass rustled to the sound of his hum.

Chow ah- Tak!

The moment the ferry finally reached the soft sandy beach.

John’s eyes opened.

“Is today over?”

As soon as he finished his question, a white hand came up from the back of the ferry.

chin-.

Hands swollen with water.

The hand holding the boat trembled, and the owner appeared behind him.

“Okay… … .”

The glass, which was as wet as a blown hand, staggered out onto the shore with a groaning sound.

Sabachsabak – He collapsed while walking on the sand.

“Ha-ja-ha-.”

Yuri sprawled out and exhaled a rough breath.

It was November when the cold wind blew, and it had just come out of the cold water, but I didn’t mind Yuri in my underwear.

Yuri’s body, which was strengthened by muscles, was constantly radiating heat, so steam was rising.

‘Go round and round… The sky goes round and round.’

Is it a simple illusion that the clear blue sky without a single cloud looks yellow?

[Since you’ve been tired of dragging on land, shouldn’t you try dragging in the water?]

Bung-Bung dragging in the water started at John’s request.

Of course, this wasn’t just to annoy Yuri.

It was also an extension of training.

[A castle built on the fly is easily destroyed. Even if it’s a bit frustrating, building a solid foundation will enable you to leap higher in the future. It’s a bit old-fashioned, but it’s also said that it’s close to orthodoxy that it’s been passed on for that long.]

Yuri has just started learning the magic.

With his amazing talent, he was already able to capture the flow of mana, but Yohan emphasized the basics and gave homework.

[A place where there is always a flow, and the flow is confused. Also, a place where it is easier to perceive changes in flow than anywhere else. Where would you be? Of course it’s underwater.]

The homework given by John was simple.

Read the rapidly changing flow of water and try to use it.

It was a fairly vague assignment, but Yuri accepted it without saying anything.

But the problem is… … .

[thinking about it… I don’t know how to swim?]

It was that Yuri had never been born to swim.

Yuri’s ordeal began like that.

At first he practiced dog paddles with a rope tied around his waist.

That was the best Yuri could do at the time.

Even that almost drowned in the water, and John rescued him dozens of times.

As the situation was, the distance Yuri had dragged Boong-Bungi for a day was only a few hundred meters.

But Yuri did not give up.

I vomited up the water I drank until my stomach was full.

If you vomit it, you fall into the water again and fill it up.

Yuri kept jumping into the water as if she wasn’t afraid of drowning, and each time she did so, her swimming skills improved dramatically.

After a week like that, the dog swimmer was nowhere to be found, and Yuri became more proficient at swimming than the fisherman who had worked hard for decades.

By the time another week had passed since then.

Yuri vaguely realized.

It was a flow that had been regarded as resistance, but in reality, it was oneself that was interfering with the natural flow.

When two weeks passed again after gaining a small realization.

Glass could naturally melt into the flow of water.

‘Ah, this is it…’ … !’

Yuri could finally feel it.

The true water path created by the flow of water and the change of mana flowing in it.

From the moment he realized this, Yuri’s swimming skills transcended the realm of humans.

No longer was the flow of water obstructing the glass.

Rather, it was a helper that helped me move forward faster, safer, and more.

Yuri swam freely in the water like a mermaid in a legend.

However, for this, mana had to be operated at all times, and that was a difficult task.

Therefore, once in a while, I was exhausted and had to take a break from the shore.

Just like now.

‘I’m going to die, I’m going to die. this… What would a human do?’

It was hard, but Yuri was happy.

‘But sure… I can feel that the basic foundation is being built up.’

It wasn’t just swimming that he was doing.

Repetition of the work of always operating the magic stream and capturing the rapidly changing flow.

So it was only natural that the sense of detecting the flow would increase by leaps and bounds.

I was able to endure this level of difficulty in a change that I could clearly feel.

When Yuri’s lips draw small arcs.

There was a sound that erased his smile all at once.

“Huh!”

Seeing Yohan lying on the ferryboat and yawning, Yuri groaned.

“You’ve grown a lot, haven’t you?”

Yohan spends most of the day lying down as if he became one with Boongboong.

It looked familiar by now, but… … .

‘I can’t get used to that nasty feeling at all.’

Yohan snorted at Yuri’s mumbling.

“What do you not know? Isn’t it easy to just lie still? While you fight the water, this body fights boredom.”

“… … .”

“So push a little harder. Whoosh – Make the wind sound! Isn’t there no fun at all! After all, the instinct to run is dormant in the heart of a man! Awaken the instinct to run that is dormant in my heart!”

“… Do you know if I am doing this for fun?”

“Aww, you boring bastard. At what age will you arrive at the cradle after going there like a slug?”

Yohan muttered, and Yuri threw a question as if it had just come to mind.

“Come to think of it, how long does the cradle have to be in?”

“I ask very quickly. Tsk tsk.”

“So when is it?”

“When is it, the 20th of this month?”

“aha! It’s the 20th of this month. this month… … .”

The glass, which had been nodding indifferently, hardened.

He blinked and looked back at John.

“… When?”

“Okay? When did I say that?”

“You said it was the 20th of this month!”

“You understand well, but what are you looking for?”

“Ah sh*t, what’s so hard about saying that again… ! Oh no… Isn’t that important now?! On the 20th of this month… … .”

Yuri’s eyes shook violently.

Finishing his calculations in an instant, he vomited in astonishment.

“Only… A fortnight left, right?!”

John cleared his ears at Yuri’s scream.

“Why are you screaming and f*cking?”

“You don’t look like you’re screaming right now? No, why are you saying that now!”

“Didn’t you ask?”

This time, Yuri’s fists trembled at the sight of Yohan clearing his nose.

Yuri, barely suppressing his anger, gnashed his teeth and asked a question.

“So we… Can you get to the cradle by next month?”

“If you go quickly, you will arrive.”

“… … .”

“If you go as slowly as you do now, like a slug crawling, you won’t be able to arrive.”

“If you don’t arrive on time on the entrance day… How is it?”

“What’s going on? Of course you can’t enter the cradle.”

Seeing Yohan answer as if he were a stranger, Yu-Ri asked, feeling anxious.

“excuse me… Can I not go into the cradle?”

“Heh heh heh, are you crazy? You’re just going to blow that golden opportunity? If you do, you know that you will die in my hands.”

In the end, Yuri’s outfit burst.

“No, but why are you talking like everyone else, you crazy person!”

“Excuse me,” Yuri shouted and hurriedly jumped into the water.

The golden eyes of Yuri, who was seated behind Boong-Bungi, flashed.

‘He’s a sick old man!’

I don’t know if it was before, but now I’m vaguely aware of it.

The cradle is a place you must go through if you want to be strong.

Because of this, Yuri herself wanted to enter the cradle rather than John.

‘I can’t give up like this!’

If you have little time left, you can move faster and sleep less at night.

I couldn’t give up without even trying.

Yuri shouted at this.

“Hold tight! I will awaken the dormant instinct to run in the heart of inspiration!”

With those words, Yuri’s legs violently pushed the water out.

Fuhuaa-.

Huge spray of water rose from behind the glass.

The bow jerked up at the sudden acceleration.

Fuhuahahahahahang-.

Soon, the boom-boong jumped forward with tremendous speed.

Shuhuaang-.

John’s eyes widened at the sound of the strong wind brushing his ears, and he smiled broadly.

“Ooh! Yes, this is it, this is it! Run, Bung-Bung-ah!”

John’s exasperated cry echoed for a long time.

* * *

Located in the northern part of Niger’s administrative region, Lake Argo is known as the second largest lake on the continent.

In addition, the river stem that came out of Lake Argo flowed south and led to the Dale River, which is called the lifeline of the continent.

The Dale River, the central axis of global logistics movement.

As a result, the waterway coming out of Lake Argo was bound to be crowded with merchant ships headed for the Dale River.

and another one.

The fact that the ship at the top was moving meant that the amount of money was moving, and inevitably it meant that the pirates aiming for it were infested.

The brigands roaming along the river were no different from a nuisance to security officers in each administrative district.

On the water, the pirates act as if they are not afraid of anything.

But they also had something to fear.

“Huh?!”

“Bae, it’s a white whale!”

The captain of the bandits with 100 men gritted his teeth as he saw his men confused.

‘Damn it, the white whale of the Spero family!’

The moment the flag of the ‘Belgium Crest’ was raised from one ship that I thought was a merchant ship, and two submersibles soared on either side, my heart almost fell.

Haydn Spero, who was a legendary pirate but crossed the river with his back to the sea.

He came up from the shadows to the light and established the Spero family, claiming to be the guardian of the Dale River and repulsing the enemies.

The elite troops of the Spero family who have mastered the martial arts specialized in underwater warfare.

Even the enemies who were not afraid of the navy had no choice but to fear the Spero family.

Furthermore, the submersible that moves underwater, not on the water, was a terror to the pirates.

It was no different than being a captain.

“Move quickly! If you don’t want to become fish food here!”

“Ha, but the captain… Bae, Baekkyung! trillion!”

“I know, so shut up and move! Once you get out of here, ahead is the spinning rapids! Not even a hundred whales will be able to chase us through the rapids!”

“… … ?!”

“If you know, move right away! I can get away with it!”

“Ah, I see!”

At the shout of the leader, the subordinates began to move, and the enemy ship quickly turned around and began to run away.

The captain of the 1st 100th Police Officer, Rachel Spero, who was watching the scene, sighed.

“under? Look at these?”

It was obvious what these guys were thinking.

You would think that a submersible would be able to get away with fast-spinning rapids.

Of course, it was not wrong.

If it were a normal submersible.

Baekkyung, a submersible independently developed by the Spero family, was not an ordinary submersible.

“Follow me. Don’t let even one of them live.”

ridge-.

With a short drumbeat, the two white whales began moving forward.

Two ships that do not even submerge and advance with wild spray.

Chow-.

Gradually accelerating, Rachel’s red hair fluttered wildly.

She smiled coldly as she looked at the number line.

“How dare you think of running away with the white whale behind you.”

Rachel’s eyes were full of confidence.

He had to do that too.

Baek Kyung, synonymous with fear among bandits.

Another modifier to refer to it was ‘the fastest ship in the world’.

Chow-.

A white spray rose behind the two white whales, finally reaching full speed.

At the same time, the fleeing enemy ships were getting closer moment by moment.

1,000 m.

900 m.

800 m.

Rachel’s ridicule deepened as the distance from the number line grew closer.

“There can be no ship faster than a hundred whales.”

That’s why those stupid brutes who believed they could escape from the white whale were just funny.

Finally, the distance between the two white whales and the enemy ship was reduced to 500m.

“Ready for Doha.”

At the command of the captain, the elite crew members of the Baek Kyung raised their lives.

The moment the distance was reduced to 400m again.

Whoop whoop whoop-.

A strange sound came from somewhere.

‘… What is this sound?’

Rachel frowned slightly and turned her head in the direction the sound came from.
