The Last Adventurer

Chapter 134 – Elnas Mountains (2)

3.

“Let’s go to the Elnas Mountains! To find Aran’s relics!”

Aran, the hero of the polearm who moved all the adventurers in Maple World.

“Boss, let’s go to the Elnas Mountains immediately!”

Debo and his colleagues at El Palm were also excited by the name.

To them El Palm said:

“We have no choice.”

“yes?”

“We are still under contract with the Knights of Signus. The choice of our next destination is not up to us.”

At those words, El Palm’s colleagues grew cold.

Because it was a situation where the client was none other than the Knights of Signus, it was impossible to move on one’s own.

“And this is a trap.”

“yes?”

“An item from Aran that we didn’t even know existed has appeared, and that’s questionable. But it’s being revealed to the world like this? One thing is certain.”

El Palm made the reasoning of such colleagues colder.

“It was intentional to spread this rumor.”

Only after hearing those words did his colleagues show their cold faces.

“That’s true, from what the boss said. If something as incredible as Aran’s item had appeared, I would have kept it to myself, but it’s been revealed like this. The item is probably fake, too.”

If you think about it, it’s a situation where you have to question the authenticity of that item.

“It can’t be fake.”

“yes?”

“There’s no point in putting fake fish in a trap. You have to put real fish in it for the bait to catch.”

“Really?”

But everyone was surprised by El Palm’s words.

I was surprised that it was real, but what surprised me the most was that part.

“Boss, did you know then? That Aran’s item exists?”

El Palm knows about Aran’s items.

It was quite surprising. Everyone in Maple World knew the story of the six heroes, but only a few people actually knew about their traces.

There are only a few people who know why, how, and when they disappeared.

Naturally, no one knew about the items they left behind, that is, the relics.

This means that we don’t even know what items they left behind, let alone where they are.

“Aran’s boots, one of Aran’s armors.”

However, El Palm not only knew of its existence, but also specified what item it was.

Although I knew of the existence of more items than these, the reason I chose these two was simple.

‘Because the Lion King owns it.’

The place where this incident is taking place is none other than the El Nas Mountains.

‘And the Lion King joined hands with the followers of the Black Wizard.’

That’s why El Palm was convinced that this was a trap.

‘The intention is… to find Aran.’

Even that intention.

In any case, El Palm had no choice but to be cautious in many ways.

El Palm in particular knew.

“It’s a shame that it’s a trap. It’s not often that you get a chance to get such a great item.”

“You don’t have to worry about that.”

“yes?”

“The next mission the Knights of Signus will give you will be to the Elnas Mountains.”

“What is that… … .”

“All adventurers will flock to this event. If the Knights of Signus reveal that they are the Knights of Signus and get involved in such an event, they will never hear anything good. This is an event that requires the help of someone who is not a knight, but someone with trustworthy abilities.”

“ah!”

Everyone nodded at El Palm’s words.

There was no need to think too much about who the adventurer would be who best fit El Palm’s words.

That’s why Devo smiled.

“So the Commander of the Fire Knights will call us soon.”

“Of course! Of course it would be like that.”

A smile on my face at the thought of being able to participate in this incredible event.

“I will make a proposal related to the Elnas Mountains on the spot.”

El Palm said with that smile.

“And then I’ll say I can’t do it right there.”

4.

“yes?”

Oz, she looked surprised at what El Palm said in the suddenly arranged place.

El Palm said at that expression.

“I can’t.”

Oz frowned slightly at those words.

It wasn’t just because I was rejected.

“I haven’t said anything yet?”

It was quite frown-worthy to hear such a response before the conversation had even properly begun.

“Aren’t you going to give me a mission related to the Aran item that appeared in the Elnas Mountains?”

But Oz couldn’t help but frown at El Palm’s subsequent words.

“How did you know?”

“Aran’s item has appeared. Given how quickly the rumor is spreading, it’s unlikely that this is just a simple happening. Naturally, adventurers will flock to it. And they’ll engage in a bloody fight over it.”

Oz didn’t say anything in response to that.

“This is something the Knights of Signus cannot just sit back and watch. However, if the Knights of Signus directly intervene, there is a high possibility that a greater backlash will occur.”

The explanation was sufficient.

So El Palm didn’t say anything.

‘Considering the relationship between the Knights of Signus and the Lion King, the moment the Knights of Signus intervene, it is war.’

What is the most crucial reason why the Knights of Signus cannot intervene in this matter?

‘Van Leon, it was the anti-Black Mage Alliance that took everything from him.’

It was a long time ago.

Before the six heroes sealed the Black Wizard, hundreds of years ago.

At that time, the Black Mage was rapidly expanding his power, and the Anti-Black Mage League was created to fight against him.

And at that time, the Black Magic Alliance reached out to the Lion King Van Leon, who was in the coldest place in the Elnas Mountains, that harsh land.

Let’s fight the black magician together.

However, King Van Leon of the Lion King refused the offer.

Up to this point, these were facts that any adventurer with a deep interest in Maple World history would know.

However, not many people knew that the Black Magic League did not only express regret for being rejected, but also carried out a bloody massacre and a very brutal punishment by accusing the Lion King of being a follower of the Black Magician.

‘That’s why I became a follower of the Black Wizard.’

That is why the Lion King drew his sword of vengeance.

I didn’t even know about El Palm.

It was a fact I only learned after the world had collapsed. fгeewebnovёl.com

Anyway, after the six heroes sealed the Black Mage, the Anti-Black Mage Alliance was disbanded, and it was only recently that the Maple Alliance emerged to fight against the Black Mage’s followers.

It would be strange if Lion King Van Leon and the Maple Alliance were on good terms.

So, during that time, the two forces did not face each other at all.

The Maple Union did not go to the Elnas Mountains unless there was something special, and the Lion King also stayed deep in the Elnas Mountains and did not engage in any external activities as much as possible.

Eliminated any possibility of conflict.

But here the Knights of Signus enter the Elnas Mountains?

It was never a pleasant experience.

In fact, it would have been better not to come forward unless absolutely necessary.

Even if you were to step forward, it would have been right to do so only after a real problem arose, and at least have some justification for doing so.

“More than anything, there will be a bloody storm there. I don’t want to expose myself to that bloody storm.”

“I will pay you.”

“What’s the price?”

“I don’t have the confidence to bring Aran’s items on behalf of the Knights of Signus.”

“You don’t have to do it alone. The Knights of Signus will move. They just need your help.”

Nevertheless, saying this meant that the Knights of Signus were confident.

“You’re deploying the Signus Knights?”

“yes.”

“… … You know something.”

It means that Aran’s item is real and that you are sure where Aran’s item is.

“There is a Mystic Gate. Inside it is a clue to Aran’s item.”

proviso.

El Palm’s eyes narrowed at those words.

It’s not just Aran’s item, it’s just a clue related to him, and the Knights of Signus are moving?

One thing was clear.

The fact that Oz, the commander of the Knights of Fire, trusted the person who brought the clue so much was incredible.

‘He could be someone you can trust, or he could be a traitor.’

Of course, El Palm could not view his intentions positively.

“I guess the rating is green.”

“How do you know that?”

“Otherwise, there would be no reason to hire me.”

“So what are you going to do?”

Here El Palm pondered for a moment.

And answered.

“1 million mesos per circle.”

“yes?”

“I will receive compensation equal to the number of knights’ circles that survived with my help.”

Oz looked dumbfounded at that answer.

I expected that they would ask for something great, but El Palm’s request was truly out of the ordinary.

It wasn’t just the method that was out of the ordinary.

“If I bring back 100 knights from the 5th Circle, I’ll receive 500 million mesos, is that it?”

“you’re right.”

The amount was also far beyond common sense.

In fact, at this point, any person with common sense would have to think this way.

El Palm, he makes such ridiculous suggestions just to get rejected.

Oz thought the same thing.

El Palm’s proposal was out of the ordinary in many ways.

Moreover, the Knights of Signus were a group that had a harder time accepting such an outrageous proposal.

Nevertheless, Oz said,

“great.”

I gladly accepted El Palm’s offer.

“I’ll pay.”

El Palm looked surprised at that answer.

“Are you serious?”

“I can promise you my loyalty to Empress Signus.”

El Palm was left speechless at the words that followed.

For the Knights of Signus, there was no oath more certain than that.

That’s why El Palm looks even more surprised.

Of course El Palm knew.

‘As expected.’

If he came out like this, Oz, the commander of the Knights of Fire, would gladly accept the offer.

In other words, El Palm had intended to accept this offer from the beginning.

There was no reason not to accept it, exactly.

‘It’s something that has to be done anyway.’

First of all, El Palm had no intention of avoiding this danger.

‘I have a deal with the thief Phantom.’

You wanted to create a fake identity to secure Aran’s items, but you’re giving up that opportunity?

Something that can’t be happening.

‘In situations where we don’t know what danger there might be, it is advantageous to move together with the Knights of Signus.’

In that situation, being able to form a party with the powerful force of the Knights of Signus was a huge merit.

‘But there is a lion king.’

Of course, the danger also increased. The Lion King, the ruler of the Elnas Mountains, would not just sit back and watch the Knights of Signus.

‘They’re going to try to take my life anyway. Since I’ve become a follower of the Black Wizard.’

However, El Palm was already being chased by the followers of the Black Wizard.

There was nothing more dangerous or dangerous than that.

In the first place, El Palm accepted Oz’s offer, as he had no other choice.

That’s why El Palm acted.

In order to gain a little more profit.

And the attempt worked.

“There are 79 Mystic Gates to conquer.”

“79 people.”

“There are 70 knights who will participate. The number may change, but you can think of it as around that. There will be around 19 knights from the 5th Circle.”

“Are the rest all 4 circles?”

“There may be a few people in the 3rd circle, but you can think of it as an average of 4th circle.”

There are 70 people in an average of 4 circles, so roughly speaking, there are 280 circles.

If El Palm took them all out, he would have made 280 million mesos on the spot.

It was a huge sum of money.

Of course, El Palm did not smile at that huge sum.

In the first place, his goal was not to make money. Money was simply a means to achieve what he wanted to do.

Above all, El Palm did not forget.

This huge sum of money is something that can only be received by saving more people.

That’s why.

El Palm’s expression hardened.

’79 people, no way.’

Even in El Palm’s memory, there was a 79-person Mystic Gate in the Elnas Mountains in the green grade.

“Can you give me some information about the Mystic Gate?”

Oz nodded to El Palm’s question.

“External leaks are absolutely prohibited.”

Then he gave her the document, and the moment he saw it, El Palm was convinced.

‘There it is.’

The 79-person Mystic Gate that he remembered and the Mystic Gate that he had to conquer this time were in the same place.

In other words, it meant that it was there.

‘Where Crimson Balrog appears as a boss monster.’

El Palm, the one who can make his expression harden.
