Chapter 392: Flameless Land (6)

Kiriel decided to go even deeper into the memory .

‘Let’s see what happened . ’

Kiriel focused as she started to read the memory after Clementine’s forces had left .

……………………………

Erunheim’s memories continued .

After Clementine’s forces had gone up .

This place was at peace for a short while .

Sangjin had succeeded in controlling the territory of Reyunion with his abilities .

And none of the Transcendents could do anything while he was there .

But one day .

After going into the place where Clementine’s forces had been digging at .

The peaceful days had ended .

<Gather up . There’s something we need to discuss . >

At Sangjin’s words, all the aliens had gathered for a meeting .

Erunheim didn’t know about the contents of that meeting .

But one thing was clear .

Everything changed after that day .

<We will leave . We all have different opinions and… we need to respect that . >

And Sangjin left after that .

Towards the Pompeion Empire to the south of Reyunion’s territory .

And Erunheim couldn’t figure out the reason behind Sangjin’s parting words .

After that meeting .

Some stayed .

Some went to the Pompeion Empire with Sangjin .

Some went to the Neropa Union .

Erunheim didn’t know what they were all thinking, but one thing was clear .

They each had different plans and had decided to split up .

The Transcendents had all left .

And she never saw them again .

……………………………………………………

‘Mmm . . . This is how things happened? Mmm… I wondered how someone like this had taken over this place . ’

—kiiiiing— 

Kiriel nodded as she returned from the memories .

Of course, John Stone wasn’t weak in any sense .

John Stone was by far the strongest out of everyone who had decided to stay, and he was a decent leader .

If not, he wouldn’t have been able to reach this level .

After all, Kiriel didn’t have any confidence that she could beat John Stone in a fight .

‘He’s strong… He’s strong indeed . ’

Kiriel mumbled as she looked at the aura John Stone was radiating .

He was strong .

Although they were all at the 3-Star level, John Stone had stayed here and continued to increase his strength after all .

Of course, he was still lacking in comparison to those who had left .

From Erunheim’s memories, there were at least twenty people who looked stronger than John Stone right now .

And this was only what Erunheim saw .

If they hadn’t all left, John Stone would’ve never been able to take over this place .

“ . . . That is what happened . ”

“Ugh…”

John Stone gritted his teeth at Kiriel who bluntly explained everything she saw to Hansoo .

It was all true, but it made him seem very incompetent .

‘Damned b****…’

Who was it that prettied up this place like this?

Of course, Hansoo didn’t care for John Stone’s thoughts as he made his decision .

‘I should go check inside . ’

The thing that Clementine’s forces had wanted to dig out was definitely the controller he was looking for .

The object that was the reason this place was called the Flameless Land .

But there was something strange .

Two years was not a short time .

No matter how well-hidden the External Flame Divine Tool, or whether other things had gotten in their way of digging it out, two years was more than enough time to accomplish their goals .

But Clementine’s forces had relinquished it and gone up instead .

And an even stranger thing was Sangjin and the other people’s actions .

Sangjin had checked the insides and had left afterwards .

There was a reason for this .

And he needed to check it out .

“Which direction?”

“This way . ”

As Hansoo looked to the direction Kiriel pointed to— 

—John Stone knew instinctively .

That these people were aiming for the same thing as him .

These guys shouldn’t know anything since they’d just come up, but every single one of John Stone’s instinct was crying out in danger .

He sensed it .

That these people were going for the object hidden deep within this place .

The object that was supposed to be his .

“No!”

—boooom!— 

John Stone’s aura exploded outwards along with a shout .

His entire body burned up in dark red flames .

‘No! Do you know how much I’ve struggled for that?!’

Flames spewed out from John Stone’s eyes .

John Stone’s trait .

Berserk Mode .

It was a very simple trait, but there was nothing as good as a trait like this when it came to a battle .

A rage that burned the second he felt danger from his opponent .

It was similar to Enbi Arin’s Tainted Emotion, but there were clear differences .

Unlike Enbi Arin’s trait, which only raised two stats depending on the emotion, John Stone’s trait increased all his stats through either rage or fear .

The downside was… his decision-making skills and sanity became very clouded .

‘No!’

As his Berserk Mode activated— 

—the fear he felt towards Hansoo started to wash away .

And rage replaced it all .

“Kuaaaaap!”

—whoooosh!— 

The giant axe on John Stone’s back rose up along with his Berserk Mode .

The monster that appeared on the 6th Zone .

An axe created from a monster that was famous for its hard exoskeleton, the Atantael .

The blade was created by sharpening its exoskeleton and its handle was made from its bones .

The axe, which played a huge part in helping John Stone rise up to his current position, flew towards Hansoo’s neck .

—swoooosh!— 

Kiriel looked at the axe and thought to herself:

‘ . . . Brute . ’

Her trait, Psychometry, was amazing in a sense that it allowed her to quickly become stronger and gave her a lot of answers .

But it was still lacking in a battle .

In the end, she felt that it would be difficult for her to deal with this brute currently charging towards Hansoo .

But Kiriel just looked around in boredom .

‘I guess everyone has their own job . ’

She just needed to do her own .

But Hansoo acted outside her expectations .

The moment Hansoo saw John Stone charging towards him, he spoke to Kiriel .

“Let’s go . ”

“Huh?”

‘You aren’t going to kill him off?’

Kiriel was confused, but her actions were still very quick .

Even before the axe got anywhere close to them .

—kiiiing!—  

Clouds appeared from Kiriel’s body and covered their bodies .

Then— 

—whoooosh!— 

—the axe started to cut apart the clouds .

“Hahahahaha…hah?”

John Stone’s expression turned dark as he cut through the clouds .

‘I don’t feel like anything got cut…?’

And then—

—John Stone focused on the insides of the cloud where Hansoo and the woman should’ve been at .

“What the… Where did they go? Uaaaahh!”

John Stone, who was still in his Berserk Mode, shouted in rage as he looked at the empty land before him .

…………………………………………

—charrrrk— 

Above the depths .

White clouds started to appear above the hole .

Then— 

—whooosh— 

The clouds disappeared, revealing the figures of Hansoo and Kiriel .

“Nice… We really arrived!”

Kiriel exclaimed out loud at her newly learned skill .

She had read about the skill’s explanations but using it was a whole other sensation .

The depths that she’d seen in Erunheim’s memories was in front of them .

Hansoo asked Kiriel:

“How are you?”

He was asking about her status .

Kiriel looked at her body and replied:

“There seems to be a lot of limitations . It drains a lot of my stamina and… I don’t think we can use it as a means of escape . ”

A new skill .

<Cloudy Movement> .

She realized after using it .

One could move with no restrictions to distance, and once the skill was activated, they would become untargetable until it ended .

But there were a lot of limitations .

The biggest one was the user’s beliefs during a battle .

If one used the skill because they decided they couldn’t win in the battle, then the skill would not activate .

It only activated because she believed Hansoo could still win .

If she were alone, the skill would’ve never activated .

‘What a petty fairy . Should at least allow me to run away with it . ’

Of course, running away wasn’t the best option, but knowing that one had a means of escape would allow them to fight with more confidence .

But Hansoo chuckled .

“Well, it has a good synergy with your trait . ”

“ . . . Right . ”

Kiriel nodded .

Cloudy Movement .

<Moving anywhere within one’s memories . >

This meant that to Kiriel, who could read memories, it had a great deal of synergy .

She had brought herself and Hansoo here using the memories of Erunheim .

‘It’ll be very useful . ’

Kiriel then asked Hansoo:

“Anyway, why did you want to come here right away?”

‘Instead of beating him . ’

Kiriel didn’t voice her whole opinion .

It made her sound too blunt .

Hansoo looked down into the depths and said:

“I felt like we needed to come here quickly . ”

When he heard the memories that Kiriel read… 

Hansoo felt that something was amiss .

A feeling that urged him to hurry .

If he had engaged in battle, then he would’ve had to fight John Stone and everyone else who followed afterward .

‘It . . . It doesn’t feel quite right . ’

And he realized it as he looked down .

As to what was making him feel this uneasy .

The darkness that had almost separated from the crystal .

The adventurers who had been cutting away the darkness then shouted at Hansoo .

“Huh? Who are you guys?”

“This place is off-limits?”

Hansoo looked around the crystal, the people around it and then turned towards Kiriel .

“Let’s go in . ”

“Yes . ”

His goal was right before his eyes .

These brats weren’t his opponents at all .

After speaking to Kiriel, Hansoo jumped into the depths .

Towards the crystal that was being tied down by the darkness .
