Sword Pilgrim

Episode 247

One of the three famous forests in the north.

A forest of white giant trees that seemed to hide even the figure of a giant.

white forest.

A group of pilgrims seated there were secretly chasing the Witchbeast.

“Shh.”

Holding a sword with both hands, he took a deep breath and ran out.

“Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!”

Chew!

Ben Chris on the back of the demon.

Led by him, the hiding pilgrims come out with swords and shields.

Kyaaaaaaaaaaa!!

pure white snow.

The Yeti who jumped swiftly over it and wielded huge feet and fists.

Bloodshot red eyes and ugly teeth are proof that they are dangerous guys who threaten the North and slaughter innocent citizens.

Chris, along with other pilgrims, was subjugating the witches in the north.

Pooh!!

“Be careful, Chris.”

“thanks. Leone.”

Torret’s owner, Leone, killed the yeti who tried to ambush Chris’ back.

The two formed a friendship together and were in the process of subjugating the beasts by leading pilgrims heading to the north.

“charge!!”

“Oohhhhh!!”

Chris and Leone, who led the people called players to the north, were happy to see them growing up.

“The two captains have run away!”

“Shall we follow him?”

“No. We are also quite tired, and this is enough achievement. If you chase after me and get hurt, I have to lose. Time is ours, so we can take a good rest and deal with it again.”

There is a saying in the North.

‘Don’t chase the escaping demon.’

I couldn’t exterminate the monsters in the north anyway. Just as the word “cartwheel” did not come out of nowhere, it means that the demon will always appear again, so don’t overdo it.

Chris and Leone were satisfied looking at the corpses of the demon beasts who had fallen around them.

The number was well over twenty.

Since he caught this many yeti, twice the size of a normal person, fewer villages would be affected for a while.

“Yeti’s fur sells expensive. If you sell it to the villagers, they will give you a fair price.”

“Oh yea.”

“It looks really warm. Those with a lot of scars won’t sell, so I wonder if I can use them. I’m secretly sensitive to the cold.”

“Do whatever you like. It’s late at night, so we need to sleep at base camp, so the yeti’s hide will come in handy.”

“yep!!”

A total of eight pilgrims.

He was leading six new recruits, led by Chris and Leone, to gain experience in the North.

“But Chris. Originally, pilgrims didn’t have a senior-junior relationship like this?”

“It was like that. It was to the point where they said that meeting the same pilgrims on the roadside was more frightening than witch beasts.”

“why?”

“There was a superstition that if you made a pilgrim into a sword, a stronger sword would come out.”

At Chris’ words, Leone also shook his head.

“Even if that were true, it shouldn’t have been. Let’s fight among those who worship the same god.”

“But how did you change like this?”

“Because of ‘him’.”

“Is he him?”

“I know. Are you talking about Colius…?”

“He always changed a lot. It is said that the death rate of pilgrims has been greatly reduced thanks to this.”

a word from him.

That changed the pilgrims who were overflowing with individualistic ideas. It was Colius who changed the sect, which had kept fighting each other as a tradition.

Of course, it would have been impossible without the full support of the saint and the pope.

“Come to think of it, I heard that Chris and Leone have a pretty good relationship with him, is that true?”

“right. I used up all the luck of my life then.”

“I wonder!”

“Listen!”

A starry northern night sky.

I lit a bonfire in the snow-covered forest and warmed myself up with strong alcohol, slowly unraveling the story.

his appearance. The smile of a burnt rose.

mother’s death. And the imperial army appeared.

The saga of Colius, who slashed them all with a single blow, was so hot that it made us forget the cold of the North.

“Wow, you cut a hundred people at once?”

“Does that make sense?”

“Well, after hearing about it a while ago, it doesn’t seem impossible.”

The number of views of the video of Colius, who intruded into the Dragon Horse War and slaughtered them all in one fell swoop, exceeded 10 million in an hour.

A man who shows such a powerful impact, how big is it to cut off hundreds of heads with a single sword?

For all men, the desire for strength burns like a flame in their hearts.

It is up to you to decide when the flower will burn brightly or cool down.

Listening to his story together, Leone de Torrett recalled what happened in Torrett and was also sentimental.

It reminded him of Colius, who had saved him when he was young by turning his mother’s disintegrated body into a sword.

The conversation at that time, Leone, is still not forgotten.

your mother

‘I hoped to return to you.’

The reason is probably.

‘Looks like he was trying to protect you.’

Like a knight in a fairy tale, Colius appeared out of nowhere to protect himself and finally let him meet his mother. freewebnoveℓ.com

Leone couldn’t help but be grateful for the rest of his life.

Chris and Leone, whom I met when I was young.

But now, both of them have grown up and become Balterus’ faithful servants and paladins, leading a group of pilgrims.

Giving priority to pilgrims who wanted to head north was also not without his influence.

The symbol of the North is no longer there, but the people of Carpe think of him when they think of the North.

“I hope… I want to meet you at least once.”

“Arthur, there is not a 10% chance that a low-level person like us will meet him. It’s not easy to meet Lord Paladins.”

No matter how much I listened to it, I couldn’t get used to that unique tone. Leone and Chris thought so and pulled their capes.

“Go to sleep. Have you decided on a night watch?”

“Yes, I did. Lord Paladins, you just need to rest.”

“Haha, you can’t do that. The smell of yeti’s blood still lingers, so there might be strangers appearing. You must never let your guard down.”

“Oh, I hope so.”

“The witches in the north are different from other places. It’s frustrating because we can’t eat each other.”

The North is uniquely different.

There is no place other than the northern part where the war between demons and mankind has been so fierce for a century.

“Why is it that only the witches in the north are like that? Any other reasons?”

Chris shook his head.

He also doesn’t know why.

“The North is such a place. I don’t know the other reason. I heard it’s better than before.”

“Was it worse than now?”

The pilgrims were amazed.

Even at this level, it seems that the level of the monsters is high enough, but was it originally stronger than this?

“They said it was. However, I heard that it has calmed down a lot since the Thunder Dragon was attached to the north.”

“Oh, I know. The Thunder Dragon of the North! It’s very famous.”

Guardian of the North.

A spiritual creature that protects the North.

Brain Dragon.

“I heard that you are considered the guardian deity of the north, is that true?”

“Yes. They say that the Thunder Dragon is drastically reducing the number of monsters.”

“How amazing. Aren’t dragons inherently hostile to humans?”

“Because he raised a dragon.”

now i get goosebumps

Is there a place in the North untouched by him?

It was even creepy that the Brain Dragon was also an existence he created.

“Wow… that’s right. Really great. How did you tame the dragon?”

The more you listen, the more you will be surprised by the story of Callius.

From the player’s point of view, honestly, since it is a game, there is no choice but to think that there is no choice but to have full favoritism from the developer.

There was a time when users had a strong backlash against the existence of a name that was too powerful.

At that time, the head of the development team said:

[We have no right to take away his power. Because that power was obtained by oneself.]

Callius von Zervan.

He was originally the eldest son of the Zervan family, but he was a character with many flaws in terms of personality and talent.

However, he survived several deaths and later broke the wall himself.

Users were delighted with the story of the developer and were enthusiastic about the sound that anyone could become like Colius.

The ripple effect of Pilgrim’s Road was soaring soaring to the extent that 1 billion people simultaneously accessed it for a month after its release.

It confused reality and virtuality to the extent that it was called another world.

This is because everyone, from the elderly who are sick to those with disabilities, will have a common physical ability once they enter the capsule.

Something I couldn’t do because I was uncomfortable.

Since you can do all the things that you have left in your heart like a lump in your heart and have not been able to challenge, who will say no?

In reality, everyone becomes the main character when they enter this place, even if it is a worker who is overworked or a head of household who is treated like an invisible person in the house.

Already among the students, the status here used to be like the status in reality.

In such a world, the mysterious existence of Colius, who does not belong anywhere and is at the top, is something that everyone can’t help but cherish.

While laughing and talking like that.

The time has come for sleep.

Tutuk. When the firewood is put in, the flame coils around the firewood and eats it. Embers popped up and a quiet night came.

A new pilgrim in charge of the first night watch.

He stuck a sword into the ground, put his arms into his armpits, and covered himself in yeti fur, blowing white breath.

“It’s freezing cold.”

“Would you like to drink this?”

“What is it?”

“Chris told me to drink it when I was standing on the nightstand and it was cold. It is said to be a northern shipper, but it is similar to vodka. If you drink it, your body will be warmed up, so it will help a little.”

“Oh thank you.”

gulp gulp. I grimaced at the alcohol that seemed to burn my throat.

“It’s very bitter.”

“You’ve gotten a little warmer though, haven’t you?”

“Yes, it is. It’s really amazing. How did you manage to achieve such a perfect taste and temperature change? Aren’t you curious?”

gulp gulp. Big.

It’s amazing to taste it again.

How did you make it look so real?

It is impossible to refute even if you insist that it is real, not virtual.

“It’s really amazing. So many people confuse whether it is real or virtual. It’s so perfect that it reminds me of the military right now. My toes are cold, so I’m putting my toes on top of each other.”

“You too? I’m doing that too. It’s cold though. They say it’s less cold if you have artifacts. When will I try something like that?”

“I heard that if you have money to buy it, you can increase the size of your house in reality. Don’t think like that, and don’t freeze your toes. If it freezes, you have to cut it, but you can’t recover it. It would be such a waste to come all this way and recreate an account.”

Amputation is also a game notorious for not recovering.

Is the reality test too thorough?

Even if a limb is cut off, it interferes with the game play, so it was in the news that there was a massive protest against the game company, but the result remains the same.

The pilgrim’s road is another world.

Perhaps because of the concept of a world other than a game, the development team ignored the complaints from users.

“Actually, these are things I don’t know much about, but my relatives are related to the pure road, right? The soon-to-be-updated content is a deal to restore amputated limbs.”

“Oh really? It will be very comfortable.”

“They say it’s a million won instead of you, but it’s better than creating a new account.”

“But it is very sudden. Wouldn’t that go against the concept of reality?”

“I don’t know. Did you have to do that because of another update?”

“Do you want to increase the difficulty of the game?”

“Maybe.”

silence for a while.

The small talk that tried to forget the cold stopped.

Without speaking, the cold chills to the bone again.

And it was then.

Woo-woo-!

A strong wind blows and crashes.

The quiet forest shakes.

The snow that was on top of the leaves falls off, and footsteps can be heard from various places.

“Isn’t this a big deal!?”

“Wake me up first!!”

While waking up others.

Tadak! Tadadak!!

“what.”

The monsters that seemed to attack at once passed by them.

I was dumbfounded to see them start running away as if frightened by something.

They’re not attacking themselves, they’re just running away.

Anxiety sets in.

The bright moonlight is covered by clouds and darkness descends with fear.

in between.

A light flashes. Kaaang-!!

The darkness that can’t be seen even an inch ahead.

Red sparks splatter.

Red sparks flashed along with the noise of iron clashing.

“Kuk!”

“Chris!!”

“Who are those guys!”

At the same time, the clouds that covered the moon lifted.

What you see in the white forest soon.

A red-edged axe.

green skin. Barbaric warriors with reddish hair.

“Hunting humans.”

“Reclaim our land.”

A large body and muscles that were one inch taller than humans.

and a swinging axe.

They are long-forgotten nemesis of the north.

Greenskin.

“It’s an orc.”

It was an orc. The number is quite large.

“The number of orcs must have decreased, but what are you guys doing here?”

After the Beasts settled in the North, the number of Orcs was gradually decreasing.

At the same time, it’s a famous story that the Thunder Dragon is roaming all over the North and hunting Orcs and Witch Beasts.

But the orcs suddenly attacked.

That too in great numbers.

“God’s messengers are not given only to you humans.”

“I think the Orcs have been unlocked?”

“I heard that they are updating it somehow.”

However, Chris laughed at them with a fishy smile.

“Anyway, Orcs. No matter how many of them increase, an orc is an orc.”

The North has already endured two crises.

Thanks to this, the momentum of the Orcs was terribly broken, while the momentum of the North rose sharply.

Orcs were no longer a threat to the North.

“Kreuk! We are not stupid.”

“If it was only us, we wouldn’t have come so openly!”

Koo Goo Goo.

A tree falls.

The trees in White Forest are petrified.

It is a huge tree that has turned into stone.

An enormously huge tree that could cover even a giant.

It falls and something comes.

Whoops-!

coo-!

Before long, a gigantic being that even covered the moonlight in the night sky stared at Chris and the others.

“You…”

Chris’s pupils twitched aimlessly.

The group of pilgrims are also tensed by his unexpected agitation.

Even if it wasn’t him, it had to be.

presence in front of your eyes.

[Where is the scabbard?]

A giant that only appeared in legends.

Because he was a warrior of the giants.
