Chapter 139 – Crimson Balrog (1)
One.
Luminous’ collection.
The moment he heard that, El Palm’s eyes narrowed.
‘There is nothing lacking to replace Fried’s legacy.’
It was something that even the phantom thief Phantom could lie about.
‘Or more.’
No, maybe it was something even greater.
That would be the case, since El Palm already had one of Luminous’s collections and was feeling how great it was.
Moreover, Luminous’ collection was a little different from Fried’s legacy.
‘Because they were dangerous things to begin with.’
As the name suggests, Fried’s Legacy was the items that Fried used during his lifetime.
They were great items, but in a way, they were items that only Fried could use.
There were also items that were not special in any way.
On the other hand, Luminous’ collection was different.
He was not just a wizard.
He was a star child born to fight against the Black Wizard from the very beginning, and his fate was set to fight against the Black Wizard.
For that, Luminous has gathered everything needed.
Even items that are not for your own use, but are judged to be dangerous if passed on to the Black Mage.
In other words, this means that only items that Luminous considers to be powerful become the objects of his collection.
Whatever it was, its power was indescribable.
“Pick one of the three.”
Of course, the phantom thief didn’t give El Palm a proper choice.
“I have a ring, I have gloves, and I have a bracelet.”
I don’t know what it is.
There is only choice.
It was a choice that could only be agonizing.
That’s why, in these situations, it’s common to protest rather than make a choice.
Or negotiated.
To get some information.
To find something that is more beneficial to you.
But El Palm was different.
“I’ll do it with a ring.”
He chose his option without a moment’s hesitation.
It wasn’t really a problem to worry about.
‘There’s no point in arguing with the thief Phantom.’
Even if you ask questions here and kill time, there’s no way Phantom Thief will give you a hint.
‘Because lies don’t work on him.’
Also, it was impossible to get anything out of a conversation with the Phantom Thief.
On the contrary, the longer the conversation goes on, the more likely it is that El Palm’s hidden truth will be revealed.
That’s why El Palm only had one meaning.
‘The ring is comfortable.’
Compared to bracelets and gloves, which are difficult to wear in multiples, you can wear as many rings as you want. freēwebnovel.com
“You make quick choices.”
At El Palm’s answer, the thief Phantom smiled and said.
“Anyway, it was you who chose.”
With those words, the phantom thief lightly tapped his waist.
At that gesture, El Palm put his hand on his waist and was immediately caught.
A pocket that wasn’t there before.
When I opened the pocket, a ring came out.
“This concludes the deal.”
Even the phantom thief knew.
What choice will El Palm make?
“As promised, I will take the Onyx Dragon’s Jewel. Tell me when you get it. I will take it as I please.”
“yes.”
At those words, El Palm put on the ring without hesitation.
It’s all over now.
Now, there is only one thing left to do, which is to check the skills of the item you have in your hands.
The moment he injected magic power into it, El Palm’s eyes narrowed.
‘This?’
And a deep smile appeared on the lips of the thief Phantom when he saw El Palm’s expression.
“It’s the magic of light. Can you handle it?”
The magic of light.
It was a magic that only a very select few in the world could use.
That very small number meant a number that was enough to remember all their names even if you searched through Maple World.
“yes.”
El Palm was one of those very few.
Because he had the talent of an All-Master, he had the talent to use magic of all attributes.
“You can use it.”
Of course, being able to write and writing properly are two completely different things.
Moreover, the magic of light was a magic that was infinitely more difficult to use than any other magic.
Those who have the talent to use that light magic are very few in number.
Even after the massacre of the Aurora Temple in order to study light magic, in fact, the only person left in Maple World history who could properly use light magic was Luminous.
The same was true for El Palm.
‘I’ve never used it.’
As the last adventurer, he had used countless magics, but none of them contained the magic of light or darkness.
This was because finding items that contained the magic of light was virtually impossible.
He only thought so because Heinz, who saw his talent before he went back in time, told him that he could use light magic.
‘I only heard the story.’
In the process, I also learned some information about the magic of light.
‘Even if you can use the magic of light, most people can’t maintain that light.’
The information that using that light magic is incredibly difficult is not at all positive.
But El Palm did not disappoint.
This was not a disappointment.
‘But if you can use it, the common sense of battle changes.’
Rather, it was something to be happy about, because before returning to the past, I had received something I could not have even dared to imagine.
Of course El Palm knew.
“Well, try to write it well.”
Originally, the thief Phantom had intended to give this ring, the magic of light, to El Palm.
Of course, if El Palm were to use 120% of Allmaster’s talent, he might be able to use light magic.
And if you do get to deal with it, El Palm will be a huge help.
That didn’t help either.
“For your information, the skill name is Twinkle Flash. It’s a magic that shoots arrows of light. Usually, the distance the arrows fly varies depending on your skill level, but my friend was able to shoot them so far that they couldn’t be seen.”
Because light attribute magic couldn’t be stopped by any simple means.
“thank you.”
That is why El Palm expressed his sincere gratitude to the thief Phantom.
“I am grateful.”
That was it.
“Oh, and don’t forget that the second deal we made is still in progress. Time is running out, so do your best.”
“yes.”
Now it’s time to go back to the original negotiations.
“We will move right away.”
El Palm also had no intention of wasting time.
To be exact, I didn’t have the luxury of that.
The Knights of Signus had already organized a party to find Aran’s items and were just waiting for the El Palm party to join.
Besides, the waiting time has been quite some time.
This means that now you can act independently without waiting any longer and without joining the El Palm Party.
“Then I’ll see you next time.”
That’s why El Palm turns around and says hello.
“Do you have a snail?”
The thief Phantom gave a gift to El Palm.
“Give him Elijah’s horn. He’ll see something a lot more interesting than you might think.”
2.
Elnas Market.
The only place in the Elnas Mountains where law exists, now a world of outlaws.
Of course, that law was by no means particularly powerful or anything like that.
There was always a commotion.
It was not uncommon to see blood, and it was not uncommon to hear stories of someone dying in a fight.
It means a place where you can never relax.
Moreover, since Aran’s items appeared, the atmosphere in the Elnas market has become extremely tense.
“Boss, did you finish your work well?”
But the colleagues waiting for El Palm there looked relaxed.
“How have you been?”
“Of course, what could be the problem?”
It was natural.
“It’s circle 5.”
Everyone is an adventurer of the 5th circle.
Of course, there were quite a few 5th circle adventurers in the Elnas market, and there were also 6th circle adventurers, but even so, 5th circle adventurers were unlikely to get involved in any trouble.
No one would pick a fight unless they were stupid, and even if they did, there was no need to feel anxious or embarrassed.
Just as a lion is not flustered when challenged by a lynx.
Anyway, El Palm’s companions, who had become 5th circle adventurers, waited for El Palm more leisurely than ever.
“Are you just starting now?”
In other words, that leisure was now over.
“Yes.”
Now it’s time to start the adventure again.
It was not an easy adventure, either.
“Supporting the Knights of Signus is not an easy task in many ways.”
To conquer the Mystic Gate together with the Knights of Signus.
If someone heard it, they would think it was an easy task.
There can be no more trustworthy partner than the Knights of Signus.
But everyone at El Palmar knew.
The fact that they are being put on this stage means that it is a difficult stage.
“What about that thing?”
“You mean the plastic surgery potion? It’s arrived. I’ve only received 10 for now.”
Moreover, this time the El Palm Party had to hide their identity.
It means that it is difficult to fully utilize one’s abilities.
Especially in the case of El Palm, it was decided to use only fire attribute magic in front of the Knights of Signus.
Otherwise, there would be no point in creating a fake identity if you were acting like El Palm.
Anyway, all preparations are now complete.
“So who are you?”
The only thing left is who from the Knights of Signus will come.
“You still haven’t told me?”
“I heard it yesterday.”
It was the most important part, and that is why El Palm also only recently heard the report about it.
“Tiger Eye, he is the leader.”
And then the nickname of the leader of this party was mentioned, and at that moment, everyone looked surprised.
“Tiger Eye? Is that the Tiger Eye I know?”
It had to be that way.
“The fourth disciple of that damned Lightning Knight, Hawkeye?”
3.
“hello?”
The woman who greeted me was a very lively beauty with short hair.
Above all, she was a very attractive beauty with golden eyes.
Of course, her most famous was her nickname.
“It’s called Viola. It’s also called Tiger Eye.”
Tiger Eye Viola.
He was the fourth disciple of the Commander of Lightning, one of the commanders of the Knights of the Signus Order, and was a 5th circle.
Moreover, his skills were so outstanding that he was ranked among the top five knights of the 5th Circle of the Signus Knights.
What made her particularly famous was the nickname Tiger Eyes.
Tiger’s Eye, she was given that nickname because she was so aggressive and belligerent that she rivaled a wild beast.
“I heard the story from the Commander of the Knights of Oz.”
However, contrary to his aggressive style, his personality itself was very generous and sociable.
The same was true of the personality of her master, Hawkeye, the Commander of the Lightning Knights.
He could be friends with even a horntail, that was Hawkeye’s personality.
“You said your name was Elle, right?”
“yes.”
“What about your colleagues?”
“In that order, L, D, K, R, M.”
“That’s easy to remember. That’s fortunate, I’m good at remembering people’s faces, but not so good at remembering names.”
It was the same even then.
“Anyway, I ask for your help in the future. I will do my best to follow your lead in this campaign.”
She didn’t engage in pointless fights.
That was quite surprising.
The Knights of Signus have always been very bossy when dealing with adventurers.
It wasn’t because they were ignoring adventurers.
It’s just that I don’t trust adventurers.
And that couldn’t be helped, because the role of the Knights of Signus was to maintain order in Maple World, and most of those who ruined that order were adventurers.
But why is he so cooperative when dealing with the adventurer El Palm?
Of course, that’s what Oz would say.
Trust and follow El Palm.
Since he had paid a considerable price to hire El Palm, he must have emphasized countless times that you should follow him.
Still, the viola was a very special case.
‘Still the same.’
Seeing Viola like that brought back to El Palm several memories associated with her.
But I didn’t ruminate on that memory.
“What is the exact purpose?”
Because what was important now was the mission.
“The objective itself is simple. After entering the Mystic Gate, you must retrieve one necklace from there. And you will never leave until you retrieve it.”
And Viola told him the mission.
“Even if everyone dies.”
