Chapter 111 – Floating Island Battle
In an interior reminiscent of a Korean office, a woman rubs her hands with a very friendly expression.
“Oh ho ho ho! Welcome~ The president of the clan ‘straight’ clan. My name is Hye-mi Yoon!”
“Hello yes.”
Kang Gum-il’s colleague and boss, Yoon Hye-mi, literally rubbed her hands together so that her hands became her feet.
The tall man in front of me was dispatched directly from the ‘main store’, and he was a top-tier stranger. This is because it was a supernova that might soon enter the ‘transcendent world’.
His name is Shin Jin-pae.
He has great skills, but he is not arrogant and is a person who is well-received for being frugal.
Of course rumors and reality are different.
‘I have to make a solid connection here!’
Shin Jin-pae, whether aware of her promise or not, entered the main topic with a soft smile.
“How was the preparation?”
“I’m already fully prepared!”
“Hmm. I’m looking forward to it. Up until now, transmitters would go off immediately when they hit magic power.”
He came to manage and supervise the operation of the transmitter made by Yoon Hye-mi’s clan.
“If it’s the right thing, our president will definitely pay the clan back straight away.”
“Oh ho ho ho! It’s not like that~ Everyone started doing something good, so what about the reward?”
Yoon Seok-il, who was listening to that, thought, “I’m fucking crazy without even realizing it.”
When I think of how much Yoon Hye-mi usually sang, her head throbbed.
Yoon Hye-mi, who was laughing ho-ho-ho, opened her mouth as she noticed Shin Jin-pae.
“But are you sure you’re okay?”
“What do you mean?”
“That. The transmitter we developed is being revealed to the entire community, not just to the head office.”
Haha. It’s all advertisements, right?”
“But the users will find it on their own anyway, and the harder it is, the more rare it is…”
Yoon Hye-mi, who was expressing her opinion, smiled silently at Shin Jin-pae, then shut her mouth when she realized that she was looking at her.
She seemed satisfied with the way she looked, she said in a softer voice.
“Even I can’t help it. It’s the President’s will.”
“Ahaha. Yes! If it’s the president’s will, I’ll follow anything!”
It’s not just flattering words.
Because the chairman of the ‘main store’ was famous for making any business successful. If it’s his discernment and instructions, you have no choice but to follow.
“Now. Come here,”
She said she had prepared, but in fact there was nothing special about it.
All you have to do is operate the transmitters that have already been planted in the world in this place.
Yoon Hye-mi saw the transmitter that Yoon Seok-il had polished.
The size of the machine itself is quite large, about a table, but it is easy to operate.
“I thought the sending place was a floating island, right?”
The head office thankfully saved the prestige of the straight clan and entrusted them with choosing the sending location.
And the place the straight clan has taken is the place where their aces are now. Floating island.
“Yes. Our users. Strangers are reluctant to go there. The perks are also sealed. The persecution is severe… I can understand the feeling of wanting to see it in a safe place.”
“…”
Once again, knowing that Shin Jin-pae was watching her silently, Yoon Hye-mi stopped her chattering mouth.
On the inside, she cursed at her because she was a bummer, but on the outside she kept a smile as much as possible.
‘Actually, someone on the floating island wanted to buy transmitters in large quantities, so I decided to make it a floating island.’
Since it was an offer she had nothing to lose, she accepted it, and as a result, the store was well received, so it was the right decision.
“And… Also, there are many people who want to watch the video of the hero festival that takes place every year on the Floating Island. That’s why I chose Floating Island.”
“Good job. Let’s begin.”
“Yes, yes. Now, everyone. Let’s start!!”
Employees were displeased with Shin Jin-pae, who treated their boss as if he were a subordinate while responding to Yoon Hye-mi’s words.
It was the same with Yoon Seok-il.
Even though she usually longs for them, in the end, she was the one who took good care of them.
‘If there was only sword work, a guy like that gisaeng brother wouldn’t have come out…’
Yoon Seok-il sighs and operates the machine according to Yoon Hye-mi’s signature.
Eventually, all procedures were completed and the machine started working.
There were two huge screens in front, one broadcasting community conversations and the other broadcasting scenes of floating islands.
Chatting was in full swing in the community.
[Wow hahathis works? A transmitter that can’t be affected by magic?]
[Can you? It’s bluff again.]
[If it’s a straight clan, there’s a strong sword. They must have been excellent producers. It’s worth looking forward to.]
[They say it shows a floating island, has anyone ever been there?]
[Hey. Breaking news came in, but I heard that Almiraj is over there?]
[The news is fucking slow.
Shin Jin-pae, who sneered hysterically while watching the community conversation, watched the screen being broadcast.
Soon, the screen lights up.
[Fuck things. Got it? There are loads of heirs to your proud teenage family here. There are many more students of your noble academy. Think carefully?]
As soon as the video started, everyone made dumbfounded faces at the voice they heard.
The sky in the screen was reflecting a human hologram that looked like a giant embroidered giant.
Shin Jin-pae, who was the first to come to his senses, laughed.
“That’s what she said.”
“Uh, yes?”
“No. The mothers have already infiltrated the Floating Island.”
“Yes, yes?!”
Didn’t Kang Geom-il say he would come back in a week?
However, after listening to it, the hooded man seemed to be a very famous man among the mothers.
I can’t see his face, but he’s probably a top-level stranger.
One of the transcendents of this world… Dark All. Veil.
‘Why is such a giant over there?! No, are you crazy?!’
The floating island is not called the tomb of strangers for nothing.
Privilege seals are basically inhabited by a large number of insanely powerful people.
Instructors.
There are less than 20 Egulas in the world, five. There are comparable swordsmen and fighters, and there are also teenage families with artifacts that are so good that they slap both cheeks on the perks of strangers.
It wouldn’t be an easy place to do something like that even for a top-tier stranger, right?
“Look closely.”
“Uh, yes?”
A soft, gentle voice. Yoon Hye-mi looked at Shin Jin-pae with eyes of surprise.
“Perhaps you can have an interesting viewing.”
“…Do you know something?”
“About the river.”
What if you know roughly I gnashed my teeth at Shin Jin-pae, who seemed unwilling to explain.
And Shin Jin-pae said as if he knew her heart.
Haha. I’ll explain, so don’t stare at me like that. The boss and our main store seem to be going for a long time, so I want to be close.”
You want to be friends?
Shin Jin-pae, who grinned, no longer looked unlucky.
[And the important thing. Hey bunny! Are you here?! You said you came to kill Ganggeomil? Why don’t we kill one too? Ok?!]
Shin Jinpae grinned at the man killing Lee.
“Let’s see how the floating island responds and explain.”
***
“Let’s go.”
Gold follows me without hesitation.
“Oh, now, wait a minute! We must move according to Kitz-sama’s orders…!”
It’s not the time to listen to Marie.
Among the things they ask for is Almiraz.
Once we’ve got him, we’ll have some room to negotiate.
“Please wait. Mr. Yeodere.”
“…”
I looked at Kitz without a word.
But, you know.
If you’re trying to stop me for an insignificant reason in this situation, then our deal ends here.
“Please wait a little longer to secure Almiraj.”
“How long will it last? Until the captives are all gone?”
“Look at you, eight strangers!”
Mary’s voice was weak this time.
She, she, and she know very well that now she has no reason to stop me.
“I didn’t ask you, Cardinal.”
Marie, dazed for a moment, tried to answer, but Kitz stopped her.
“The first reason is that we want to know the number of their people. There is a good chance that the number is much higher than previously thought.”
I said, “Otherwise, there is no reason to make such a fuss on the floating islands of the world.” At Kaitsu’s words, she nodded.
“Also?”
“The second is to fight on the battlefield that is advantageous to us. As you know, Yeodere-nim, among the perks of the strangers, there are a lot of things that change the field to your advantage.”
“I heard that on the floating island there is a privilege seal for strangers?”
I asked in half-spoken words, but Kaitsu answered smoothly.
“I think they came up with a way to use the perk.”
“Rosario?”
“…I don’t know that.”
Let’s talk about what Kitz mentioned before. What do you mean by Mari and Raeband? Made a face.
Katz is also an unbelievable guy.
Hiding the truth from people who must be old colleagues.
Does this guy have anyone he trusts?
Is there any guarantee that the information you tell me is true?
“If you wait a little longer, I risk my honor…”
Closed the distance to Kitz.
Then I put my mouth close to his ear and whispered.
“…”
Katz replied, and I nodded.
“Okay, Kitz. Wait.”
The boy’s eyes widened.
Be cool.
Because I’m different from back then.
Think and think.
What you can do now
***
[Yapleno-kun! It’s dangerous alone!]
“I have to go anyway.”
The man who answered Blut’s worried cry.
Yapleno, who is also an instructor at Pryunar Academy and also holds the title of Captain of the Floating Island Defense.
His martial arts rank is Black Mountain.
In terms of magicians, that rank is similar to that of Egula.
He was confident in his ability to play Yaple.
[All camera screens on the Floating Island are now turned off. The situation is dire. Maybe… There is a possibility that they took some of the authority of the floating island.]
Blurt said intimidatingly to Yapleno, who didn’t answer.
[In other words. It means that they may be able to use the privilege by invading the privilege sealing authority.]
Perks.
A power that makes strangers special.
When you think of what the strangers did and the power they showed when there was no concept of sealing special privileges in the past, it is truly a power like a nightmare.
If you can use that huge power that is easy to handle without much effort, whether it’s magic, fighting, or weapons, it will bring you power equal to that of the best in that field.
Among them, there are those who show off their overwhelming power with very special effects.
It’s a situation where such people came in as a group.
[Only the number of confirmed intruders is over ten. I know your skills well. At least Mullin and Gulkyun are heading there, so join them…]
“Trust me, Chief Instructor Juiso.”
[Look!]
“Students are in danger, but we can’t just leave them alone. How scared they must be.”
[Yapleno-kun…]
Hearing the moving voice, Yapleno turned off the communicator.
By this, Blut will think that Yapleno has made up his mind and is going to rescue the students.
“Ah~ giggly giggling. It’s terribly funny.”
A frivolous male voice.
Yapleno didn’t run alone.
Six people were moving around him.
All of them were dubious figures wearing robes.
“Are the camera guys off?”
“Eh? What are you asking for the obvious? Giggly giggly.”
“…”
“Are you blaming me? The one who sent our mothers in?”
Yes.
They are mothers
And Yapleno was cooperating with them.
“I don’t know what the purpose is, but you let us in and even release the special seal in your area. Thank you very much.”
The voice this time was that of a woman.
Yapleno ignored and asked.
“I ask again, but the camera is dead. You guys have one? How?”
“There is such a perk.”
“Other zones still have perk seals active. What do you mean by perks? If you’re going to lie, hit it right.”
“That bastard’s perk is secret, so it seems that it won’t even take a seal.”
“…”
I have no idea how to properly explain it.
Yapleno swears inwardly.
Trash!
About a month ago.
Someone had approached Yapleno and suggested it.
Wouldn’t it be nice if you could release the perks of the floating island?
Then I will give you an unimaginable reward.
At that time, of course, I ignored it. Because I thought it was a joke.
However, I became interested in them when I learned that their scale was beyond my imagination.
That interest, of course, is craving for a share, how to live happily in old age…
Was not
‘Now they’re laughing, trash.’
When you arrive at the destination, the great mage’s rest, you will activate the special seal again.
And all this trash was going to be swept away.
Okay. What Yapleno wants is honor.
The honor of punishing dirty motherers!
Quite a long time ago, doubts were raised about the ability of Yapleno.
I admit that he is strong, but who is qualified as an instructor to teach, to the level of qualification to belong to Prunar Academy?
The suspicion that started once continued.
I tried hard to get rid of the bridle of doubt in this lecturer qualification, but I couldn’t get any results.
If he continued on like this, he would soon be expelled from his teaching position.
That’s not right.
I liked the benefits of this position, but I didn’t want to part with the girl I had a crush on.
In the meantime, not only himself, but other instructors. Even Egula has done what he couldn’t do, and that bastard who hangs out with her unrequited love.
Thinking about it makes me jealous.
‘Honestly, I didn’t expect things to grow this big…’
At most, I expected a commotion to occur in the area of Yapleno, but the mothers are working on a larger scale than I thought.
‘I won’t spare a single guy.’
It was difficult for these trash to make fun of their mouths somewhere.
I don’t like murder, but all of these motherfuckers were nothing but bastards who were cheap even if they died. Cleaning up the trash is not murder.
If this mother kills them, he will become a hero who saved the floating island from danger.
Reputation and popularity will rise.
And… And the cute and beautiful girl might look after her too.
‘Eight days! I’ll show you that I’m superior to your son…!’
It’s not that I don’t get stabbed by my conscience.
It’s not even without guilt.
However, you need to recover from now. Turn around.
Eventually, Yapleno and Madderers arrived at the plaza where the Grand Mage was resting.
It seems that the evacuation of residents has already been completed, and there are no people around.
“Are the other four of your colleagues here?”
“Eh. Yes.”
Yapleno looked up at the great mage’s rest a little further away.
A gigantic building that looks a bit old but has an antique atmosphere and is larger in height and width than other buildings.
His love and cute students are caught there.
‘Dare…’
I didn’t know how to hold students hostage.
I was sorry that the children were caught up in their own interests.
Come on in. With a special seal, and…
Perong!
“Huh!”
He hit the fist that flew beside him with his elbow.
“Ah fuck. It’s fucking ari.”
It was the flirtatious man they had been talking about until recently.
The robe pulled down, revealing his golden hair and shiny eyes. He is a man full of freckles with the looks of the western world.
“What are you doing?”
“Huh? No, let’s play~ You’re our friend now, don’t you know your skills?”
“…”
Yapleno looks around at the robes.
There was quite a distance, but if you look closely, you’ll find a yaffle girl and a blonde man surrounding you.
But the shape is so sloppy that it makes me laugh.
This is a stranger
Without perks, nothing.
“Are you guys crazy? I’m going to seal the privilege again, and the little things you do…”
“Shuk!”
Before Yapleno could finish his words, a punch came and Yapleno responded with a kick.
Kwurrrring!
The waves caused by his kick echoed through the sky.
The clouds in the night sky are dispersing.
The yaffle nod swung his leg, which had bounced upward from the collision with his fist, down again and slapped the blonde haired girl in a defensive posture.
Kwak!
“…?”
The sound was a bit different than usual.
No, isn’t it normal for the head to fly off?
Even if the stranger’s level rises quickly and his physical ability is strong, Yapleno’s attack will be difficult to withstand unless he is a top-tier player…
Upon closer inspection, his body had become like metal.
Reading Yapleno’s gaze, he giggled.
“Ah giggly giggly. What is this?”
“What?”
“It’s a diamond body of steel, son of a bitch!”
Whoo!
It’s just a swing of his fist, and the air trembles.
The guy made a funny pose and it was hot! And shouted the government.
Aww!
“?!”
The floor behind Yapleno was ground up and a crater well over three meters was formed.
The posture was lame, but the specs were enormous.
‘Yes, I mean the privilege of changing the structure of the body.’
It’s quite good, but it’s a level that can be overpowered with a little time.
But there was no reason to do so.
“You guys, since when did you notice?”
“Notice? Lying down?! You blind idiot giggle gigg gigg. Hey. I don’t know what you mean, but I’m killing you because I don’t need you~”
“What?”
Didn’t they notice that the Yaplenos were trying to kill them?
The blond mother, who was surprised, said with a smile.
“I already have a useful ally, you idiot~”
“…”
“Why? Did you think you were the instructor collaborator we call you? You stupid bastard who might be kicked out soon?”
Does that mean, besides Yapleno, collaborators… That is, other instructors are collaborators of the mothers?
“…I can’t.”
Dig!
The ring Yapleno was wearing lit up.
The light becomes a magic circle, and eventually activates the effect, the special seal…
Pachaang!
“…?”
A magic circle that shatters like shards of glass.
“What. What. You want to use a special seal?”
“…”
“In the first place, you idiot. Wouldn’t it be okay if you unlocked the privilege seal and gave me the ring with on/off rights?”
Huung.
“…Kuh!”
Not good.
This guy was annoying too, but the guys around him wouldn’t be worse than him.
To deal with these six at the same time…
“Ah~ I’m afraid you’ll attack me at the same time? I’m alone enough for a crap like you. Hey~ Did you hear me? Don’t interfere?”
The mudders giggled.
I felt dirty.
“Uryaryat!”
Puffer puffer
The ground dug into the ground every time the blonde mother threw a fist.
All of a sudden, the surroundings were in ruins.
But… Yapleno had no damage.
It’s not just being an instructor.
Caang! Kang!
“Kuh?!”
Yapleno’s swift punch hit him in the jaw.
Originally, it wouldn’t be strange if she fainted, but the body that was changed to metal seemed to be okay, perhaps because it was different from the normal physical structure.
However, as if it was painful, the movement of the blonde haireder became stronger.
“Fuck you!”
“Hmm!”
Pupper puck.
Kwon and Gak, who were momentarily close to ten, hit the blonde mother.
Gagging… Murderer moaning and staggering.
The surrounding mudderers booed.
“Hey! You’re going to lose? Giggling!”
“You said you were a loser, did you lose?”
“Oh shut up!”
The man who shouted nervously attacked again…
Blah blah!
This time, he was hit on the elbow in the pit of the stomach.
It hit so hard that the wind pressure through its body blew away everything around it.
‘First one…!’
The moment he lifted his foot to completely end the coughing guy on his knees.
Shukak.
Hearing an ominous sound in his ears, Yapleno hurriedly jumped.
The sword spirit was endlessly digging into the place where Yapleno had been.
The bizarre sight and power made him feel cold… He suddenly realized that the surroundings were too dark.
“Ah?”
I turned my head and saw a huge rock filling the sky.
“Ah, uh. Aaaaa!”
He tried to throw his fist out in a hurry, but suddenly his body didn’t budge.
Suddenly, I looked down and saw a person on the ground reaching out to Yapleno.
It was the woman I was talking to earlier.
While she was caught by the green aura that radiated from her hand, she was unable to move.
A huge rock reinforced with magical power slams Yapleno to the ground.
“Uh, ah! Aaaaa!”
Yapleno, screaming involuntarily, fell to the ground.
Woo woo woo…
The rock miraculously disappeared as it fell to the ground and turned into Pararak powder.
However, the damage commensurate with the fall of that weight was left on Yapleno’s body.
Holding on to his shivering spirit, Yapleno thought.
‘…I have to retreat.’
Received too much damage.
I hate to admit it, but I can’t beat these guys on my own right now
‘I was too careless…’
Quack!
“Kuk!”
Before he could finish his judgment, the green aura of courtesy caught him.
Yaple No tried to release the restraint with all his strength.
“What’s up?”
The pressure intensifies with the voice of a woman laughing.
Not only Yapleno, but also the devastated land itself cracks apart and the ground shakes like an earthquake.
‘…This, does this make sense?!’
I didn’t use any spells, so it’s possible to create a phenomenon of this scale without consuming too much mana?
Chew!
This time the sound of a whip.
But the result is too unconventional.
It wasn’t enough to leave a long scar on Yapleno’s chest, and the wind pressure that passed through his body flew away and blew away dozens of houses behind him.
Yaple Noh opened his mouth and let out a moan of pain.
“Turn it off…”
“Kyahahaha!
A loud, shrill voice awakened Yapleno’s spirit.
Realize at the same time
This is the stranger.
The strength of an outsider who can freely exercise privileges!
‘I should have thought.’
He should have assumed the possibility that he would be defeated.
However, it was too late, and Yapleno, whose strength was further weakened by the whip attack, was held still by the green energy.
“Turn it off…”
Two people approached the moaning Yapleno.
One is a blonde mother. A shaggy-haired man holding another sword.
“Ah. Fuck. Fuck. Fucking sick?”
“Ah, idiot Kiki Kiki. Would you like to stop interfering?”
“Shut the fuck up!”
The blonde Madderer hit Yapleno on the head as if to vent her anger.
Tinnitus rang in his ears as his body lost strength.
‘Danger…!’
He thought he shouldn’t lose consciousness.
Did you even read his thoughts?
The green aura did not lose consciousness and rather helped me to become clearer.
By twisting his limbs.
“Kiaaaaa!!”
The green aura further tightens Yapleno, who is shedding tears and saliva in pain.
“Kyahahahahaha!”
“Crazy bitch giggle kick kick. Haap!”
The prosecutor cut Yapleno’s chest, and the blonde mother started to destroy Yapleno’s body thoroughly while swearing.
“Kwaaaaak! Kaaaaagh!”
Oh oh
“Huh? What are those?”
Fish floating in the sky.
It was a thousand fish, the defense system of the floating island.
“Keuhihi. I was relieved of my stress, but it went well.”
The mothers who threw away the already rags and smirked.
It was a living creature with the skills of a ‘magic machine’ with strength that was evaluated to exert as much power as a normal knight and a magician combined.
At least two hundred such individuals.
The heavenly fish rushed at the humans.
5 minutes later.
With the exception of ‘The Great Mage’s Rest’, the village literally disappeared.
The mountain collapsed, the floor was dug several meters lower than before, and many of the trout were broken into pieces and rolled across the floor.
The inhabitants of the floating island were watching the whole scene.
Because the mothers were broadcasting directly.
The hooded man, who was presumed to be the leader of the example, grinned.
[Teacher. Isn’t it a big deal?]
