The Player Hides His Past

Chapter 180: Everything Is ripe (3)

Elf.

Elsidore didnt move.

To be exact, he couldnt.

Because he couldnt go against the [Hierarchy of Blessing].

Elsidore radiated his murderous intent as if venting his anger.

U-Uaaa!

His heart wanted to slaughter the two squirming bugs, but his body didnt listen. He could only watch in silence as they cried and took a step back.

I-I will never come near you again!!

I-If you could spare me just once!!

Hiiiek!

After a while, silence came.

They shed tears and eventually ended up crawling on all fours with runny noses.

It was only after the two bugs were extinguished that the surroundings became calm.

Nevertheless, Elsidore couldnt live an easy life.

Why was an elf like him.

Why was he being manipulated by humans and suffering this kind of humiliation?

You want me to grow flowers like this?

I will definitely kill you, Lee Hoyeol.

Elsidore went beyond complaining and cursed in his mind.

However, despite his determination, mana flowed from his body.

Since he was not a human, his mana exceeded the level of a human.

Twinkle

The bi-herbs that absorbed Elsidores magic showed off their refreshing presence even in the darkness.

Elsidore recalled Hoyeols voice.

Theres a saying in this world.

?

-Those who dont work, dont eat.

!

Since the day Elsidore fell into the reality.

He couldnt leave Golden Palaces annex.

But had he been receiving harsh treatment?

If someone asked, he couldnt just nod his head.

I will grant you limited freedom.

He could go anywhere in the Yusra Kingdom.

However, causing harm to others was strictly prohibited.

Naturally, Elsidore was not really free.

Even when he looked around outside, all he could see was trash-like humans.

The fact that he couldnt kill them was frustrating.

A meal, you said.

Elsidore locked himself in the annex and pondered.

How to escape this [Hierarchy of Blessing] situation?

But no matter how much he racked his brain, he couldnt come up with a solution.

Damn you, Mother.

This was the blessing of the World Tree, which gave them the power of eternal life.

Furthermore, Elsidore came to realize.

Shouldnt there be a limit to favoritism?

The blessing of the Great Mother was only for one human being.

It resided in Hoyeol.

After being caught by such a man, it was safe to say that he no longer had the option to run away.

However.

Who did you say is running away?

Until he got his blessing back.

Elsidore had no intention of drawing back.

Therefore, he couldnt ignore Hoyeols words.

Hoyeol definitely had said this.

Why dont you take it if you want?

Take it if you can.

Like how I was chosen by the World Tree, you too must prove your pride in front of the World Tree.

Elsidores concerns were inevitably directed to the word pride.

In the meantime, Hoyeol had been coming to visit.

And now.

If you dont work, you cant eat?

Indeed.

Elsidore was paying for his meal now.

No one in the Golden Palace ate for free, and Elsidore was no exception.

Elsidore looked at the flowers in the garden.

Sisley, the land of the elves, was full of beautiful flowers and grass.

It couldnt be compared to anything like this.

He couldnt believe he was tending to such flowers.

Hn.

It was so trivial and ridiculous that he snorted.

He felt like he had won against Hoyeol for the first time.

Soon, Elsidore recited in a solemn tone.

However, this humiliation will be over once I regain my pride.

It was a solemn declaration.

Thanks to this, Elsidore imbued magic into the garden with a lighter heart.

Shining magic and recovery magic illuminated the garden of bi-herbs throughout the night

*

Even a slug had a talent for rolling^[1]Even a slug has a talent for rolling = Even people who seem to have no ability have one thing they are good at. .

I entrusted Elsidore with managing the flower garden.

Actually, in Lee Hoyeols mind.

I wanted to use Elsidore a little bit more vigorously.

Some people almost died from hardship, but he was disgustingly eating and playing around.

Should I just let him participate in the battle against the demon kings?

I seriously thought about it.

Well, as long as the [Hierarchy of Blessing] existed.

Elsidore couldnt do any nonsense.

The strongest force.

Including me.

From the Yusra Kingdom to the entire Mage Tower, no one was confident that they were stronger than Elsidore. Well, it might be a different case for the Tower Master who was floating in the mana sphere

But could Grandfels pride approve of my cunning plan?

Too bad.

The battle for the demon king was also part of the Holy War.

There were conditions to participate in the Holy War.

It was about proving your pride.

I have no intention of giving the honor of participating in the Holy War to someone who doesnt realize their pride.

Participating in a quest full of hardships like the Holy War was not an honor!

Really.

I think I finally understand why I always have such a hard time, Grandfel.

[Oasis in the Yurihara Desert]

[Recommended level: Lv.150]

[Collapse rate: 0.7%]

As I entered the portal.

My vision changed in an instant. contemporary romance

The rupture was formed next to the sea.

Thanks to this, it looked like a sandy beach floating on the sea.

It was such a great spectacle.

If I were being honest, I would also have issued a leave of absence.

I wanted to take off my jacket and shirt and enjoy a sunbath.

Haiel.

Vacation my ass.

Contrary to how relaxed I looked on the outside.

My heart was creaking, no, it was rumbling.

Soon, Haiel appeared.

I, Haiel, have answered your call.

You always look overly elegant, Haiel.

I spoke with Haiel, who lifted the bottom hem of her clothes in both hands and bowed her head politely.

First, we should start with the situation on the Arcana Continent.

There was no movement of the force units.

Of course.

The demons who participated in the Battle for the Demon King were the ones who were powerful enough to take over the throne. Now that such strong demons had disappeared from the Arcana Continent.

The only remaining forces would be the existing demon kings.

Have they finally known their place?

The reason why the activities of demon kings had quietened down?

Since they were the demon kings, they probably knew better than anyone else.

What kind of being was the high-ranking demon king.

An evil so different that you couldnt communicate with it using language.

Gamigin of the fourth throne had been thrown into hell.

Gamigins eyes looked just like the evil eyes.

Maybe the demon kings shared his vision.

In that case, it definitely made sense.

-Be afraid. Akshan is back.

Akshan is back.

I had clearly declared it in front of Gamigin.

Wait a minute, I didnt think much about it at the time.

Now that I thought about it, my mouth did a good job.

I guess the bluff worked?

Now that the Gate of Hell was closed.

There were no Akshan or demon hunters on the Arcana Continent.

But I was the only one who knew that, right?

Besides, if they were the demon kings, they must have remembered.

The fact that I had died on the Arcana Continent.

Shall we change our perspective?

The demons must be really afraid.

I died without leaving a body behind,

Then I appeared leading the demon hunters who had been annihilated in the Holy War.

It was like declaring that Akshan itself had come back, right?

Haiel bowed her head once more.

I, Haiel, apologize for not being able to join you on that journey.

Haiel, who always overestimated me, even reacted like this.

Iron Castle.

I could guess the dwarves reaction without having to ask.

Seeing the scared demons, the atmosphere there must have felt like a festival.

Of course, contrary to my overwhelming feelings, I spoke as usual.

It is not a journey, a hardship, or an ordeal. Its just a breeze passing by. So hold your head up high, Haiel.

!

I was just indebted to my sunbaenims, I should tell her the truth.

What do you mean by a breeze?

Your ability to wrap it up in a grand way is improving day by day, Grandfel.

You have nothing to be sorry about, Haiel.

This is the moment when your abilities are needed.

Even back when she was just a nameless low-level spirit, Haiels {nature} abilities were quite effective. It was difficult even for me to guess its effect now that her status had been raised to that of a unique spirit.

This was true even in London.

I thought it was just a brilliant Aquariu oak tree on the outside, but it had a vitality recovery effect. So, in order to grow bi-herb plants into elixir

Maybe its not just a pipe dream.

As long as it succeeded.

Wouldnt this be a greater achievement than turning a rock into gold?

Considering the effectiveness and rarity of elixirs reported in books

Not just [unique], it would be at the level of [epic].

Its an infinite cultivation of epic-grade items!

For a moment, I was filled with a golden dream.

I wiped my thoughts out of my head before this mouth could snuff out the candle.

Yeah.

I know without you telling me, Grandfel.

I couldnt pursue a material life because of his integrity.

Im glad you still need my ability.

You dont have to be so happy, Haiel.

I might continue to need it in the future.

Soon, Haiels blessing came to the oasis.

Good.

Moving the blessed water out of the rupture was not really difficult.

Because magic existed, not skill.

Lets see, if you cast the Space Expansion spell on a suitable water bottle like I was doing now

Sss

As you can see, water was constantly being sucked into the water bottle.

Anyway, I couldnt really call this a proper water bottle.

At least, use this tea-time item.

An item that was essential for tea time, a teapot.

I took a moment to scoop up the water from the oasis in an old-fashioned way.

This should be enough.

As I put the teapot in the inventory.

Haiel handed over something.

And I have regained another sense of pride.

Youve regained your pride?

Just listening to it made me feel tired!

My heart pounded.

Looking closely, I saw that it was the remains of the Qirnberg Machine Tower.

Yes, level is important, of course.

As you could tell just by looking at the fact that I entered a level-150 rupture.

Currently, it was difficult for me to level up through standard rupture strategies.

It might be a different case if there were a lot of demon-type monsters.

Now that the demons activities had slowed down.

It would be hard to expect a level-up even in the next regular update rupture. In that regard, the experience accumulated in the Qirnberg Machine Tower was more than just rain in a drought.

I wish you peace. My lord.

After an overly loyal greeting, Haiel returned to the Arcana Continent. I also immediately exited the rupture and manifested a portal leading to the Yusra Kingdom.

I learned from experience.

The remains of the machine tower consumed quite a bit of mana, considering that it was using reversal magic.

Instead of wearing a circle, I was in a state of being shackled. I needed to manifest reversal magic in a relaxed state as much as possible.

Clink

I realize that the sun has set.

Youre saying that tea is delicious in a grand way.

Anyway.

There is nothing that can give you peace of mind more than the green tea bag, Grandfel.

I slowly raised my mana.

Goo

Once again, I felt thankful for the title system.

If the circle wasnt sealed by the effect of [Trascendent].

It wouldnt be possible to manifest magic like I did now.

This was why prior learning was useless.

Whir

Cogwheels that were messing together began to turn.

The mana stone regained its light once again.

A massive amount of energy radiated from the machine device.

This was already the second time.

Nevertheless, it was so powerful that it was hard to get used to it!

It was so powerful my hair fluttered around without mercy and the neatly arranged desk became disorganized.

To put it in Grandfels terms.

Yeah.

The pride of the machine tower began to seep into my body.

A message appeared dizzyingly.

[Youve acquired the experience accumulated in the decisive battle weapon, Qirnberg Machine Tower.]

[Youve acquired the experience accumulated in the decisive battle weapon, Qirnberg Machine Tower.]

[Your level has gone up.]

[Your level has gone up.]

[Your level has gone up.].

Would I be able to reach the 50-level limit again this time?

I wouldnt know until I opened the status window.

But before that.

I had to check something first.

I must witness the end of the Qirnberg Machine Tower, a member of Akshan.

[Youve acquired the memories accumulated in the Qirnberg Machine Tower.]

Soon, the memory of the machine tower unfolded before my eyes.

!

But it was strange.

I had a 10-year gap.

Just like how the Dredsen village I witnessed in my last memory was unfamiliar.

I wasnt familiar with most of the cities and villages of Arcana either.

At this moment, the scenery that appeared before my eyes was strangely familiar.

The magnificent wall.

The pattern of fluttering flags.

Even the lonely mans face on the castle wall.

It was all so familiar that I felt a sense of deja vu.

I soon realized why.

I see, are you also thirsty for the throne?

So, that was what happened.

The demons werent the only ones who had a battle.

The Empire.

Capital city, Antonium.

A blade of treason was aimed at the neck of the man on the castle wall, the Emperor.

At that moment, a message appeared in front of my eyes.
