The ring of fire centered around the heart rotates fiercely. The seven rings resonated as if they were one, and I felt a hot sensation like fire flowing down my spine.
The swamp’s tidal wave slows, and the screaming and breathing of the people on the castle walls stop.
A time of extreme concentration where everything seems to have stopped.
Raon stepped into that world and called Ras.
-To be able to talk to you during this time, you’ve grown quite a bit.
Lars’ eyes widened as if he was a little surprised. As expected, they entered this world together as soul-connected beings.
‘Help me use your skills.’
-technology? Are you really talking about what was shown in the world of images?
‘okay.’
Raon quickly lowered his eyelids.
That’s all there is to it.
I felt it a little while ago when I stretched out my hand. Even if you pour out all of Glacia’s cold energy in this state, the tsunami in that swamp cannot be frozen. Even more people will die if the clumsily frozen pieces of ice fall.
‘Tell me the technique by which you froze space itself in my mental world.’
In the world of hyper-focus, time feels like it passes slowly, but it does not actually slow down. We had to move quickly because the swamp tsunami was getting closer.
-You seem like a shameless guy.
Lars snorted.
-I don’t want to tell you, but even if I did, it would be too much for you right now.
‘what?’
-That technique can only be used if you have a genius cold management ability like King Bon. Even a sloppy person like you would end up making an icicle.
The guy waved his round hand, saying it was meaningless.
-What the King recommends is to gather only the mad dog kids and put a stop to the river. Then only those guys can live… .
‘I’ll buy you everything you want from today until the day you return.’
-uh… ?
‘If this place breaks down, you won’t be able to eat the grapes and blueberries specialties.’
-Uh… ?
Lars’ worries were short-lived.
-Run Glacia immediately according to the flow caused by the main king!
Its cold energy penetrates the mana circuit. She went with the flow, bringing Glacia to the pole.
‘Ugh… .’
As I used too much cold energy at once, my mana circuit felt like it was going to burst, but I gritted my teeth and held it in.
-This time it’s anger.
Anger seeps from Lars. She chased the great current created by Ras, a rage clinging to the bottom of her soul.
‘Ugh… .’
Raon gritted his molars so hard that they broke. It feels like my body is creaking like it’s going to break. I stretched out my hand again, enduring the pain that felt like my mana circuit was torn and my bones were crushed.
-Release all anger and coldness at once! The name of this technology is… .
The moment the swamp’s tidal wave created a huge shadow on the castle wall, the dam that had been sealed was opened.
Chii Iik.
Silver-white frost blooms from my grasp, along with a cold sensation as if the blood flowing through my veins is freezing.
‘Lastly and most importantly… .’
image.
I drew the image that Lars always talked about. He twisted his wrist, imagining freezing all the waves in the swamp. The ring of fire circling the heart resonates with the coldness spreading across the heavens and earth.
It contained the entire flow of Glacia and poured it all out without leaving a single trace of cold.
Quaaaaa!
A brilliant white silver flash rose from the center of the right hand and covered the tidal wave of the swamp.
The final battle of the Lord of Fury.
Silver Aurora.
The waves of the swamp, which were steeply sloping as if they were about to fall, turned silvery white and stopped flowing. It’s not because of hyper concentration. The swamp itself froze and completely solidified.
Goooooh.
The tsunami of a huge frozen swamp without even a little mud flowing down was alien, as if it was out of balance in this world.
‘This is the silver aurora… .’
Aurora is called the heavenly curtain that covers the sky. It was a majesty worthy of its name.
“Uh… .”
“You’re freezing this? “Are you human?”
“Mud ice cream… .”
Burren, Marta, and Runaan swallowed dryly as they looked at the shadow of the huge tsunami blocking the sun.
“Huh!”
“Bu, Lord Budan!”
“It’s really crazy… .”
“I knew it was a monster, but… .”
Gwangpungdan, who was standing on the castle wall, also fell backwards and his eyes trembled as if he had been hit by the blue.
Goooooh.
Raon continued to use the ring of fire without even hearing people’s surprise.
‘Damn… .’
It hurts so bad.
Even though I was spinning the ring of fire and raising the level of my soul, my whole body felt like it was being torn apart. So much energy all at once. That was because it was the first time it was used.
“Huh… .”
I raised my head, letting out a breath filled with pain. It was still hard to believe that she had created a tsunami of silver-white frozen mud with her own hands. But now there was something more important than that.
‘What created this tsunami… .’
It must be him, after all.
A tsunami of this scale cannot occur naturally in a swamp. It was clear that the wizard who summoned the Death Knight had done this. He didn’t know where the bastard was watching, so he kept a calm expression, pretending nothing was wrong.
Pop!
Lars gritted his teeth as he looked at Raon, who had a calm expression.
-You crazy guy! How did you do it!
‘Why are you doing this after you told me about it?’
-that is… .
I was told the flow of technology, but I didn’t know how to actually do it. He thought it would freeze and crush properly, but this crazy guy really froze the whole swamp wave.
-Because I really didn’t think I could do it!
‘I imagined it.’
-what?’
‘You said it every time. The most important thing when managing mana is image. As I thought back to the you I saw in my mind, I thought about freezing that swamp entirely.’
-Okay, I won’t tell you again!
Lars gritted his teeth as if gritted.
‘are you okay.’
Raon nodded slowly.
‘Because I already memorized it.’
I used the silver aurora while resonating the ring of fire, so I was familiar with the flow of cold air. Of course, it would be difficult to use this alone.
-There really isn’t a single thing I don’t like!
‘It’s a shame. I kind of like you now.’
-Close that mouth!
Raon smiled slightly and held the sword of Jecheon Sword. Using Manga Ball, I calmed down the cold that had built up in my body and drew my sword.
Sigh!
The river, shot in a red line, cuts through the waves of the frozen swamp. Pieces of waves as large as this castle tilted and poured down.
Wow!
Because it was a huge piece of ice, the floor sank as if it would collapse.
“after… .”
When Raon slowly caught his breath and sharpened his sword, Wendy Arian, the Hwangjeon Sword Team, and the Ranger Leaders came up on the castle wall.
“Raon!”
Wendy’s lips trembled with a bluish complexion.
“Hey, how on earth did this happen? Why did the swamp suddenly become waves… .”
“It’s like a wave from the edge of a swamp of death.”
“ah… .”
She let out a thick breath as she looked at the white, frozen waves of cut mud.
“So is it over now?”
Wendy put her hands together as if asking her to please tell them it was over. The others also moistened their dry lips as if they wanted to hear the same answer.
“… … .”
Raon approached the end of the castle wall without answering.
Coo coo coo coo!
The frozen mud melts in the black energy rising from the floor. The piles of mud that had to go up to the top of the castle walls turned to dust and disappeared, revealing the land that had turned black for the first time in hundreds of years.
‘The energy of death.’
-It’s a dirty smell no matter when you smell it.
The morale in the land that had been suppressed by the wide, deep swamp began to slowly bloom.
Look up and see the end of the swamp of death. No, I was sent to the end of what can now be called the Land of the Dead. A huge presence is felt in a faraway place that cannot even be felt through the senses. The guy was exposing himself on purpose.
“after… .”
Raon let out an exasperated breath and looked back. He shook his head as he looked at the people looking this way with trembling eyes.
“Now is the start. Prepare for war.”
If you look at the morale blooming from the ground getting stronger, it won’t be long before this place will be filled with undead. We had to engage in a siege with them over this castle.
‘The good news is… .’
The point is that I’m a little ready.
As soon as Wendy Arian took over as the temporary head of the family, the first thing she did was replenish war supplies and train people, so she was at least ready to fight.
“Um, war?”
Wendy covered her mouth and trembled her shoulders.
“War… .”
“It will start soon.”
“War… .”
Her cheeks and neck turned red as if she, too, felt the energy of death rising from the earth.
“Well, what should I do first? First, get ready. No, contact me… .”
“Wendy.”
Raon approached Wendy, who seemed to be panicking.
“We don’t have much time. Aryan family. “In order to save those people, you, who know this place best, must take action.”
“ah… .”
As he said that, he pointed to the people of the Arian family who were looking up at the top of the castle wall. When she saw the eyes shaking without any proper pillars, Wendy’s trembling stopped.
“Okay… “Yes.”
Wendy clenched her fist until it bled and nodded.
“From now on, we are going into war mode! Swordsmen and rangers, prepare for siege!”
“All right!”
Perhaps because she had disciplined herself, not only the swordsman but also the rangers began to tremble and move quickly.
Ding ding ding!
For the first time in hundreds of years, an emergency bell rang and everyone in the family began preparing for war.
After checking the busy people, Raon turned around.
“set.”
The Gwangpungdan seemed to realize that this was not the time to play around, so they lined up on the castle wall and straightened their backs.
“As I said a little while ago, the war against the undead will soon begin. “Go to your accommodation, practice, and then come back.”
“Woman, do you want me to do exercises?”
“Can’t I stay here?”
“Budanlord, you’ve lost your strength too.”
“that’s right. “The practice should be done by Budanju.”
Perhaps because they had been together for such a long time, Gwangpungdan also noticed that Raon was tired.
“I can do it here too.”
Raon shook his head. Since the Ring of Fire is still in use, recovering from this level of internal injury was not that difficult.
“You guys have been sparring all morning. Go quickly and recover your body and mind to full health and then come back.”
I looked back at the land where fraud was blooming and twisted my mouth.
“Because if it’s not now, there won’t be time to practice.”
“Ugh… .”
“I’m shaking… .”
“All right.”
Gwangpungdan no longer hesitated, nodded and ran down the castle wall.
“Dorian. for a moment.”
“yes?”
“if… .”
Raon called Dorian, who was about to go down last time, and asked if he had one item.
“Oh, of course there is. It’s a necessity. Take it out now… uh?”
He stopped, putting his hand in his stomach pocket.
“But won’t our mission fail if we use that?”
“are you okay.”
Raon shook his head with a faint smile.
“Because that is also my power, the power of the Gwangpungdan.”
* * *
Even after everyone left, Raon remained on the wall and watched the land of the dead. Thanks to the ring of fire, my internal injuries subsided, and even though there were people of the Aryan family clad in courage and preparing for war, my anxiety did not go away when I looked at the ground.
‘It’s getting to the point where it’s toxic now.’
The morale rising from the land beneath the swamp grew stronger without end. An ordinary person without mana would not be able to breathe the moment he stepped outside these walls and would collapse.
-That’s not the only problem.
‘yes.’
Raon nodded and looked at the end of the Land of Death. From that end, an incredible number of undead were being summoned.
The energy of the monsters, strengthened by the power of terrible morale, was almost palpable.
‘Very dangerous… .’
-No, not that one! Why not eat a grape sandwich and blueberry pie?
‘Now is not the time to eat.’
-The King doesn’t know about that! Keep your promise!
‘The store is closed.’
-Then open it!
When Raon was pushing Lars, who was sticking to him like a swamp, Wendy Arian came running.
“Well, there’s a problem.”
“If it’s a problem… .”
“The emergency communication network is not connected!”
Wendy scratched her arm with her fingernails, saying that emergency communication had not been connected for several hours.
“I thought so.”
Raon nodded calmly. He didn’t think that the monster that summoned the growing Death Knight and made waves through the swamp would leave no emergency contacts anywhere else to contact him.
“then… .”
“For now, we have to fight like this.”
Raon took out two rings from his arms and put them on his fingers. One was the Blue and Red Pill that I received from the Yonan family, and the second was the ring that I received from the Grand Wizard Chamber in the movie.
“Whoa… .”
Wendy slapped her forehead and clenched her fist.
“You’re saying that we have to survive on our own somehow.”
She gripped the sword tightly as if she was gathering her will.
“you’re right.”
When Raon nodded, a wind chime came up on the castle wall. After returning from the exercises, everyone’s complexion was brighter than before.
“We are done.”
“We will protect this place. This time you… .”
As Martha was about to tell me to come back after practicing, I felt the ground shaking behind me.
Everyone, including Raon, ran to the castle wall and saw the land of the dead.
Puddeuddeuk!
With a strange sound like a flower made of bones blooming, gray skeletons and green zombies dug out of the ground and stood up. As if sprouts sprouted from seeds sown throughout the land of the dead, undead began to sprout everywhere except in front of the Arian family’s castle.
“ah… .”
“Wow, crazy… .”
“They’re all undead?”
“Can I survive this?”
As countless numbers of undead stood up, the rangers waiting on the castle wall trembled.
“Is this a bit much?”
Buren chewed his lip as he watched the endlessly rising skeletons.
“How come there are more undead heads than on the ground!”
Marta clenched her fists and her eyes lit up as she looked at the zombies.
The two people also frowned, swallowing dry saliva as if they had not expected the number to be this large.
“It’s like beaded ice cream.”
Runaan licked his lips as he looked at the skeleton’s head. Even during this time, he was thinking like that. He was truly an unusual child.
“Whoa… .”
“Well, the castle won’t collapse, right?”
“Then it all falls apart.”
“Be loud, be prepared. “It’s coming soon.”
While everyone was tense at the overwhelming volume, the undead lined up like an army and turned around.
They knelt down, not at the Arian family’s castle, but toward the three pillars in the land of the dead, and let out grotesque cries.
Ugh!
Grrrr!
It’s a hymn of darkness. The undead bowed their heads and sang songs of worship to their master who had summoned them for the first time in hundreds of years.
Just as a priest worships a god and gains divine power, the energy of death in them grows thicker.
Aaaah!
Kyaaaaa!
As countless undead sang about death, even the sun hid itself in the clouds as if it was frightened.
The sky turned gray, and the atmosphere of the castle walls, where the fighting spirit had been strengthened, became gloomy, as if a portrait had taken place.
There wasn’t even a sound of breathing, as if no one was there.
“W-what is this!”
“What are they doing!”
“So, my hands and feet are shaking… .”
“Are you getting your power from the devil?”
Not only the Rangers and the Hwangjeon Swords, but also the Gwangpungdan’s faces turned pale and tired of the undead’s song.
“You’re being damned.”
Raon sneered and pulled out his sword. He lifted his right arm back, spinning into a cartoon ball. He held out a sword filled with flames in a bow-shooting stance.
Quaaaaaaa!
A firestorm rose from the entire sword body and swept away the horde of undead crying out for darkness.
Hundreds of undead melted away without leaving even a single bone fragment behind.
The endless chanting of their hymns stopped, and the subdued sunlight came back to life and shone on the castle walls.
“Rad dogs.”
Raon turned around. I smiled when I saw the people’s eyes whose fighting spirit was starting to burn like a residual fire.
“The meat attached to the bones is the most delicious.”
He raised his sword and pointed at the countless undead that still remained.
“Eat everything.”
