107.

“hehehe. Sup. Heck.”

Sweat flows like rain.

Leather armor worn for outdoor activities.

Ventilation cannot be expected as much as the sleek exterior.

The material that took care of the convenience gives a cool feeling, but it was not enough in this environment.

“Hot, hot… .”

I couldn’t stand it any longer and backed off.

Seira frowned at the distant lava.

It is openness that can be reached even from a distance.

Even if you look around, all you see is sediment.

Even his teeth did not cool down, and he was constantly spitting out toxic fumes.

‘Climbing this place? It deserves to be called one of the five forbidden regions.’

At this level, it is no inferior at all compared to the Crimson Land, one of the northern roughlands.

It was a land where Auras could not survive without always protecting themselves with magical powers.

Even now, only a handful of advanced warriors can be active.

‘It’s the same here.’

Even the middle-class himself is only in the middle.

A gigantic active volcano spitting lava at all times did not allow life to approach.

‘Fire spirits in the form. I only see them.’

Take out your notebook and draw a simple schematic.

This is the last one.

I looked around all the inaccessible entrances.

I’ve looked around all possible climbing locations for Lokram.

All that came out was a sigh.

‘Unless I become a spirit, climbing is impossible.’

You can go up while taking damage with your last words.

One person protects many with an aura and climbs the way, taking turns.

In the meantime, if others work hard to recover, it should be theoretically possible.

The problem was that if it did, it would not be able to deal with other threats.

‘I should tell you.’

Seira’s shoulders drooped unconsciously.

Despair overtook him at the fact that Rokram could not help him with what he had hoped for.

There’s a last move left, but he won’t want this either.

She eventually turned away.

I headed to the only village near Geum Station that I had looked at in advance.

‘For now, let’s tell you everything we know.’

As a scout, that’s all there is to do.

The rest was left to his discretion.

the town I arrived at.

My eyes widened in the unusually busy atmosphere.

“What is the situation?”

So I caught a villager who was moving urgently and asked, and the man pointed to the center of the village.

The center of the village seems to be set in a crater.

A huge cart stood out between the buildings.

“I’ve been piling up all the tributes I’ve collected in one place.”

It tells the reason why he does this without being wary of himself as an outsider.

For a while, I felt suspicious about that action.

Seeing a familiar face near the cart, Seira kicked the ground.

“lock!”

The face he saw in a few days was the same.

The best warrior among the candidates he taught.

Just looking at it is reassuring.

At the same time, it was a good stimulant.

Even now, I look back at my grown-up self.

Although his skills are still at the intermediate level, he did not stop meditating.

The day will come when you know

reasons for growth. The moment you realize that, you will rise to a higher level.

Seira had a hunch.

“I’m here.”

As I approached him, he turned his head only then.

His expression was still indifferent, but his eyes were warm.

“Are there any injuries?”

“As you can see. Other than a little tanned, I’m fine.”

The greased armor is hardened.

Seira patted the nape of her tanned neck and smiled lightly.

“Other than that, what is all this? With this peculiar village atmosphere, what else is the offering?”

It can’t be a very defenseless town.

There seems to be a corner where you believe in something, but you should be able to know that.

So, when asked, Lokram gave a brief explanation.

“It’s a sea dragon.”

“A sea dragon?”

“Yes, the dragon has blessed this village. This is an offering to wake him up.”

“aha.”

understood.

Then why did Lokram seem to intervene in the village situation?

There is a slight ominousness.

That intuition paid off.

“I’m thinking of going out to sea and waking up the sea dragon. I also found helpers, and I decided that was the only way to climb the Geumyeok.”

“Are you planning to receive the protection of this village as well as Lokram?”

“What was the result of touring Geumyeok?”

Instead of answering the question, he gave the notebook to him.

The brows of Lokram, who had been handed over, slowly gathered.

In this case, the reaction was expected.

“What the village chief said was true.”

“What do you mean?”

“Gelea Volcano will explode sooner or later.”

“Ter, it explodes?”

Ignoring Seira’s astonishment, Lokram continued.

“They say it causes a big explosion at regular intervals. This is the reason why the sediment formed by solidified lava reached here.”

“Then shouldn’t we leave immediately? They wouldn’t have survived an explosion like that!”

In the face of the wrath of nature, even superhumans cannot withstand it.

Seira knew that very well.

It was because he personally experienced the unreasonable damage caused by the environment in the northern battlefield.

“No, they would have lived.”

“how?”

“That kind of space is hidden somewhere in the volcano. We must seek the protection of the sea dragon and find it before the big explosion.”

The conclusion does not change.

Seira held her breath and stood beside him.

“Then it doesn’t matter. let’s go together. It’s okay if you can’t stop them, right?”

It’s been a long time since I’ve heard the explanation.

A fragment of the demon king hidden in the golden region.

As a warrior, this is an issue that can never be overlooked.

If you can’t catch it even with a natural disaster, you have no choice but to go in and deal with it yourself.

“Saira. You cannot go with me.”

It felt like a thunderbolt struck in my head at every word he said.

It’s such a shock.

did i do something wrong?

Nothing made Lokram uncomfortable.

Or maybe I’m weak… I wonder if he’s saying this because he’s grabbing his ankles from now on.

“Calm down.”

“Isn’t it? I thought it was a lot of help, but it’s not that Locke was inferior to the monsters he tamed. Right?”

“I told you to stay here because I have something else to ask of you.”

“… yes?”

I’m going to ask you separately.

Blinking in bewilderment, Lokram continued.

“God bless you, there are limits. Even more so, it is a divine protection given to the whole of this wide space. It gives me a similar power, but will the protection of this place be fine?”

“If that is the case, then the Divine Protection will be resolved.”

“Yes, the debris is nearby. Still, the town is fine. That must mean a strong protection. But what if it weakens?”

At Lokram’s words, Seira finally realized what she had to do.

“It means to protect this place. all right.”

“Please. I’ll attach a monster, so just block any unexpected attacks.”

“Just stop it? I’ll kick them all out, so please come back safely. Rather, when will the helper come?”

“You’re coming just in time.”

Seira turned around at Lokram’s chin.

widely. The stick hits the ground.

An impressive iron cane with ruby as red as hair.

The smooth jawline is sharp.

Even the impression was like a knife, and a cold-hearted atmosphere flowed.

“hmm? lock. Is that woman the colleague you spoke of before?”

“I decided to protect this place.”

“Good. I wasn’t at ease either, but if there was a gatekeeper, things would be different.”

He grinned and scratched his chin.

“It’s awkward to have a beard and not have it. Daron. Daron Ledley.”

“I’m Seira.”

Unlike Lokram, who pretended to be a mercenary, Seira did not use a pseudonym.

“Saira. nice name Keuheum, a normal mind is more awkward.”

Shaking hands, Daron brushed back his long hair that reached his shoulders.

He rummages through his pockets and pulls out something.

It was an old hair tie, heavily colored.

“Even tying your hair. long time no see.”

once, twice. Tie your hair in a ponytail as if you were determined.

After completing such a simple preparation, his eyes stared at Lokram.

“Then shall we go? If you say no, you’ll have to beat him to receive protection.”

Do we have a reason for that?

Seira looked at Lokram, completely unable to relate to his last words.

He was nodding quietly.

“reason… It should be.”

The two lead the cart loaded with offerings to the nearby beach.

Before long, the demons and doppelgangers King and Luke who would assist Seira stood by her side.

It is the appearance of monsters and other outsiders.

Still, the villagers were calm.

He was working hard to prepare, as if he had received a word from Lokram in advance.

‘What did the sea dragon say to them… .’

Even though the safety of the village may disappear, they dream of the sea dragon’s resurrection.

Seira couldn’t guess why.

He was just working hard to prepare to protect the village as requested by Lokram.

“Turn it off. Ooh, pick it up.”

The man stretches.

He came out of the lava lake as if nothing happened.

I stick my finger through the hole in my worn-out pants.

Scratching the itchy spot, he moved on.

Soon they arrived at a cave next to a river flowing with lava.

“Is everyone awake?”

“That’s right.”

The answer and appearance happened simultaneously.

A group of people standing in front of him.

They shed thick auras made from black magic.

The man looked at the scene with satisfaction and examined their faces.

“As I said, you are strong. you said Even if you endure here, you can change.”

“Carrian-sama was right.”

“I’m glad that’s the case. this is coming soon too How well the firelord bastard hid and blocked it. It will take a little longer to break through the seal.”

“What can we do in the meantime?”

These were the words of Carian, the archbishop of the Amtheist Church, who grasped his intentions at once.

He scratched the top of his head at his subordinate’s question.

“You know what? The only village left in Geumyeok. I was annoyed that it served as a bridgehead with the neighboring kingdom, but there will be an opportunity to push it away soon.”

“Are you saying that the sea dragon’s protection is weakening?”

“okay. Just because it’s a sea dragon doesn’t mean it’s immortal. He couldn’t escape the demon king’s curse either. They need regular nourishment, and that’s when offerings are made. At that time, the protection will be weak, so you will be able to push the village away.”

Cararian remembered a guy who was uncharacteristically doing evil.

A filthy strong guy who looks like a parasitic brother.

I just remembered what the guy said.

‘We have to push that miner’s village away. The sea dragon’s protection only invites troublesome beings. So let’s hit the players before that. Like those without protection. Because you won’t be able to set foot in the golden area. Above all else, you have to get rid of that place to make the plan perfect?’

The guy is right.

It is a heat that only Black Kanir, a group of dark fighters led by himself, can withstand.

Climbing such a heavenly fortress without protection was an act of suicide.

It was right to cut off the guests who were planning to come here in advance.

“Shard-nim said that a necromancer would come. But he said to go ahead with the plan whether he comes or not? So, we just have to do it.”

“Do you intend to focus on breaking through the seal, Carrian-sama?”

“Shouldn’t we prepare shelters before a major explosion? So please suffer a little bit. It’s just a town anyway. As long as you pierce the protection, there is nothing.”

The leader of Black Kanir bowed his head.

“All right. Then we will move right away.”

“Suffer. Even if there is a hero stationed in the village… There will be no problem with you.”

Carian smiled at the level of the subordinates he cared about.

The flowing prayer is unusual.

It was worthwhile to receive special training here.

Even a party of intermediate warriors is not enough to deal with these groups.

‘Least advanced. That much is enough to stop them.’

Why would such a warrior be at the southern end?

This plan will go smoothly.

No worries.

Cararian looked at the back of Black Kanir as he left, then turned around.

Now that the break was over, I was thinking of starting to break through the seal again.

coogg… .

The mighty aura that flowed from his body made the surrounding ground tremble in fear.
