Chapter 262

The moment Forest's eyes were gouged out.

Swish!

The golden stigmata dug deep into Fores's vision, which was bathed in pitch-black darkness.

Both Suho and Silad already knew that it was a foreign stone.

The problem was Fores' soul.

Crack! Crack!

As the stigmata dug in, the shock began to crack Fores' previously darkened vision.

and.

Zzz!

In the end, Fores' soul shattered and burst like a broken glass window.

[The soul is broken.]

Ugh.

Silad ground his teeth with a fearful expression.

Fores's soul began to fall apart.

In that moment, Forest's memories also began to flicker countless times.

The illusion of ice flowers itself is crumbling like snow powder.

Silad clicked his tongue as he watched the figures of those who had given him the stigmata melt away like a mirage.

[Somehow, the soul size of a guy as big as a high elf was too small. It seems that Fores's vessel was not enough to accept

the power they gave him.]

'No, maybe that was their intention from the beginning. Look at that.'

As soon as Suho finished speaking.

Swish!

Hungry spirits were surging in like a tidal wave through the cracks in Forest's shattered soul in the distance.

If it had been a normal forest, he would have struggled to escape as well.

But now it was different.

-Ahhh... ... ! This power... ... !

He was already blind.

I found new light in the darkness.

-Ahh! Thank you! Thank you! God of the Elves! With this power, I can finally become a monarch... ... !

He welcomed all the spirits with open arms, his expression filled with joy.

They willingly chose to become fallen spirits of their own free will.

[Tsk. I lost my sense of reason and got completely bewitched.]

Silad clicked his tongue in regret.

Fores heard the laughter of the spirits, shaking with joy, but he did not realize what it was.

And when so many spirits were mixed together that Fores' soul could not distinguish them.

-What a good boy. He's quite an interesting creature.

A voice like a ray of light whispered to Fores.

-Are there any other kids like you?

-It is there! It is there!

The jubilant voice of Fores, bowing down to that solemn command, echoed through the air.

-Even if it's not there, I'll find it somehow and bring it back to you... ...

Then stand tall.

Suddenly, the voice of Fores, which seemed to last forever, stopped.

Then his head creaked and turned to the side like a soulless doll.

[Okay, wait a minute.]

Silad's expression hardened.

[no way?]

The gaze that had lost its light moved slowly, passing by Suho and Silad who were watching him, and then next to him... ...

I found Sirka.

-Found it.

... ... ?!

A bright smile suddenly appeared on Fores's lips as he lost his sight.

Hehe.

To his surprise, Fores's welcome looked straight at Sirka, who was trapped in the ice, and screamed.

-Found it!

Flash!

Dazzling stigmata!

Suddenly, a golden light burst out from Fores's welcome, rapidly growing and extending towards Sirka.

[This is crazy! There's no way something like this is possible... ... !]

A terrified Silad hurriedly tried to take away the illusion of the ice flower.

Then a strong backlash came back.

Your own spirit magic is out of control!

[Hey, stop it... ... !]

Silad shouted desperately, clenching his hands and pulling the illusion of ice flowers towards him.

grasp!

Before he could finish his words, Suho had already leapt forward.

Holding Kamish's Wrath in both hands.

That moment.

Jjeong!

The golden stigmata emitted by Fores pierced through the ice that was protecting Sirka.

And then, slam into Sirka's chest!

'Where!'

Flash!

The guardian sword managed to cut through the gold by a hair's breadth.

Hurrruk!

The stigmata were burned away in the crimson flames.

'Surprise.'

Fortunately, Sirka was unharmed.

But this was just the beginning.

Ugh!

Silad vented his anger.

[Don't hide, come out! Who dares to covet my descendants!]

WHEEWWW!

A bitterly cold blizzard blew over the out-of-control ice flower illusion.

The strong wind revealed the beings that had been hidden beyond the dark abyss.

Countless eyeballs.

Smile.

The strange eyeballs hidden in the abyss spin around as if playing a joke.

Even smiling with his eyes.

Suho realized their true identity.

'Spirit.'

[Yeah, it was my mistake.]

Silad gritted his teeth.

I let my guard down.

Even if this is the world of the dead monarch and time has stopped.

For Sylhard himself, this was still unknown territory.

Because he was simply called out for a moment by Suho's unknown power.

But one thing I realized clearly.

The fact that you can use spirit magic here means that, at least for this moment, the spirits are also free from the flow of ti

me.

[While we were spying on Fores' memories, they were spying on us too.]

-Hehehehe!

-Kihihihihi-

The spirits' eyes were spinning around Sirka, growing bigger and smaller repeatedly.

The entire heavens and earth were covered with strange eyeballs, equal to the number of spirits that Fores had held in his a

rms.

It was clear what they were aiming for.

Silad blocked Sirka's path with a determined expression and spoke to Suho.

[Sirka's vessel is not yet complete. If you give up Sirka, your soul will burst like Fores.]

Even though Shilad had chosen Sirka as his successor, Sirka was still young and weak.

Even compared to the high elf Fores, he was far from being competent.

Damn it!

As Silad grabbed the blizzard with both hands, a long trident formed, frozen in frost.

[Guardian. You guard Sirka here. I am much more comfortable dealing with spirits.]

And without waiting for an answer, he leapt forward without hesitation and swung his spear.

[I will take this opportunity to teach you how to hunt spirits.]

Chuwaaaaak!

The two spears swung and attacked the spirits without hesitation.

The spirits were frozen and shattered by the attack.

But Suho had no intention of just standing still and watching.

'The power of the ruler!'

Shwaak-

Chomp chomp chomp chomp chomp!

Suho defended Sirka's front, while also attacking the spirits that were approaching in circles, blowing away Kamish's anger.

But there were too many numbers.

Even if I wanted to use Breath of Destruction, it was ineffective against these reckless guys because it was a straight-line

attack.

I've never felt more sorry than today about not being able to summon shadow soldiers in this space.

But it wasn't just shadow soldiers that could be summoned.

Gray, who is tied to the pet system, has never been summoned from the world of the dead Quresha.

'Gray! Summon!'

[Crunch!]

Gray, a fanged wolf engulfed in divine light, appeared before Suho.

There was no need to even bother going through the trouble of having a spirit being sacrificed.

Nowadays, the more hands the better.

'gray.'

Whoosh.

Gray's gaze is intense as he turns his head to meet Sooho's call and looks into his eyes.

Seeing that sight gave me a new feeling.

It seems like only yesterday that I was a weak, lanky puppy held captive by the Hyena Guild, but when did I grow up so mu

ch?

Suho nodded his head and gave orders to Gray, who was waiting only for his orders.

'Eat.'

Hehe.

The corners of Gray's mouth grew longer, revealing his fangs.

and.

[Crunch!]

Flash-

The moment Gray's four feet hit the floor.

Gray was literally a breath of fresh air.

Crunch!

Crunch! Crunch!

-Keeeeeek!

-Heeeeeeek!

He started to devour the spirits he came across like a wild beast released into a sheep pasture.

Of course, the spirits fought back against Gray with ferocious force, but didn't Gray have dentures(?) that Suho had specially

put in?

[Crunch!]

Gray's roar echoed through the air, and an incredible killing intent shook the spirits.

[Gray uses 'Skill: Contempt for the Weak'.]

['Effect: Fear' is activated.]

[All abilities of targets are reduced by 50% for 1 minute.]

Not all spirits will be weaker than Gray.

But to the spirits who were relatively weaker than Gray, Gray was a true predator.

[Crock!]

Crunch! Crunch!

[Gray uses 'Skill: Fatal Wound'.]

[Gray uses 'Skill: Paralysis'.]

Gray was a true hunter, growing stronger by finding and killing spirits weaker than himself.

[The spirit has been defeated.]

[The spirit has been defeated.]

[The spirit has been defeated.]

[The spirit has been defeated.]

... ...

['Pet: Gray' offers 50% of its experience points as a sacrifice to its owner.]

'They say spirits don't die, but you can still eat them.'

[The king of beasts, the fang monarch, says that the world is a dog-eat-dog world, and that if you have teeth, there is nothi

ng you cannot eat.]

[The King of Beasts, the Fang Lord, says that elves and spirits, who have a high affinity for spirits, are eaten by spirits.]

Lakan's pride in seeing the grown-up Gray was conveyed here.

'Okay. Then while we're at it, should we solve this one too?'

Suho turned his head and looked at Sirka.

Sirka was sleeping quietly in the broken ice.

Crunch.

Suho reached into the ice without hesitation and pulled Sirka out.

[What, what are you doing! I told you to guard it well!]

Silad, who was fighting the spirits, was terrified when he saw this sight.

But Suho responded without flinching.

'What are you doing? I don't have enough free time to wait until this guy is fully grown.'

Bam.

'Sirka.'

Suho woke up Sirka who was sleeping forcibly.

'How long do you plan on sleeping?'

Suho shook Sirka awake and said.

'I've been thinking about it, and I can see why Silad chose you as his descendant, despite having so many high elves.'

Suho watched over Shilad's life from beginning to end.

So I could be sure.

'You are already qualified enough.'

Sirka was an ice elf who was born and raised in a harsh land where there were no adults.

He was a guardian who fought against spirits to protect his friends even though he was young.

'Get up. Get up and take control of those spirits yourself.'

... ... Flash!

Sirka's eyes opened.

Time in Sirka, which had stopped, began to move again.
