A genius gamer is reincarnated into a famous hero episode 173

Silveria Mountain (2)

Harang set a goal for each day. No matter how much you think about it, climbing Mount Silveria in one go is impossible. However, I had the idea that if I progressed little by little every day, I would be able to adapt to the pressure of my mana becoming stronger and eventually rise to the top.

On the first day, I collapsed before I could take a few steps, but on the second day, I endured for a whopping 10 minutes, and on the third day, I was able to do proper climbing.

Of course, it wasn’t all smooth sailing.

It seemed like I was making steady progress until the third day, but by the end of the week, strangely enough, I couldn’t get any further. As I challenged myself every day, I reached my physical limit quickly, so there were times when my progress slowed down compared to the previous day.

Harang learned the importance of rest, but he did not stop because he knew well how short a break can weaken the mind.

Even if he stumbled and fell while moving forward, he did not turn back and continued to advance until he reached his limit. Darnell, who was watching, was anxious at the thought that the master could really die like that, but he could not bear to stop him every time he saw his eyes filled with passion.

‘Young Master’s climbing speed is very fast.’

Harang seemed to be dissatisfied with himself, but Darnell saw it differently.

‘Did you say that His Highness the Duke succeeded in climbing the summit in three months? … .’

Duke Kal-El conquered Mount Silveria with a climbing speed unprecedented in history. It was a completely different pace from Darnell, which took over two years. However, it should be noted that Darnell’s two years are also very fast. There have been people who have been trying to climb here for decades… … .

After a month, Harang finally reached the ‘halfway’ of Mount Silveria.

Coogung!!

Harang, who fell to his knees under the pressure that became even stronger, gritted his teeth and stared ahead, feeling the weight as if his bones were about to break. In this place, where there was nothing but a steep cliff, several experts wearing worn-out uniforms were sitting and meditating.

Not everyone was alive.

Some people were lying on the ground, skinny, and others were dead as they tried to crawl down the cliff to get back. Most of the bodies were mummified and left untouched for hundreds of years.

“These are the people who did not return in time.”

“… … .”

This was something Darnell always emphasized.

Be sure to return and rest before you use up all your mana. Climbing will be enough after that… … .

However, Harang had different thoughts.

Even though he was almost at his limit, he didn’t come back and slumped down in his seat. Even under pressure that threatened to crush his bones, Harang broke out in a cold sweat and persevered.

“… … “If we have a fortune-telling breakfast here, won’t we be able to replenish the mana we lack?”

“Because most of the mana is being used to withstand the pressure, it is nearly impossible to take advantage of the fortune right away. I have a few more months to get used to the pressure here… … her!”

However, even before Darnell finished speaking, Harang began to eat fortune telling.

What is fortune telling? When the martial arts level reaches 5 stars, you will naturally realize it, and isn’t it possible to use energy only by concentrating your mind completely in a situation where there is no interference?

Since this was not an ordinary natural environment, it would not have been easy to even absorb the natural energy, but to withstand the pressure and perform so well… … .

As the bold young boy began to practice fortune telling, other experts here also began to take interest.

“… … Calla Dawn? “Are you a Kaladun blood relative?”

“oh my god. How could that little child… … .”

“Are you saying we are having fortune-telling breakfast here?”

The experts all looked in disbelief. Even for experts who had been here for decades to gain enlightenment, it was not easy to withstand the pressure on the ‘mountainside’ and enjoy the fortune.

But how could such a young child do something like that?

“How the world is changing… … Or maybe that kid is the only one who is unique.”

Despite their attention, Harang was completely focused on Ungi Josik, like a person who was detached from the world.

trance.

It is a commonly used word among ordinary people, but experts never easily say that word.

Even if you were the best expert in the world, it would be extremely difficult to completely fall into consciousness and concentrate while forgetting your own existence.

However, the story seemed a little different for that boy. Even under this terrible pressure, I was completely falling into unconsciousness and absorbing the energy of nature.

A day passed like that.

Because the pressure was even stronger on the mountainside, Darnell, who had thought he would not be able to hold out for a few more minutes before descending, was already in for a long time.

In the meantime, some of the masters who were training on the mid-slope were replaced as some descended and some climbed, but Harang still stayed here and had a fortune-telling breakfast.

Two days passed, then three days.

Just as it seemed like the energy emanating from Harang was becoming more and more intense, Darnell witnessed an unbelievable phenomenon.

“Unbelievable… … !”

Harang’s body began to rise, albeit slightly, into the air!

“Bukong Samadhi (浮空三昧)!”

This is a phenomenon that occurs when a large amount of energy is absorbed in an instant, and it was only possible when a certain enlightenment was achieved during the fortune-telling ceremony.

“Even under this pressure, is something like that possible? … ?”

Gradually, gradually.

Harang, who had risen completely into the air, suddenly opened his eyes.

Flash! With his eyes shining, he slowly landed on the ground, took out the Cheongwolheun that he always carried on his back, and held it.

“no way… … .”

No expert here wields a sword under pressure. Although it may be solid training, he does not go to that extent because his life is in danger.

However, Harang was different.

Wedge!

Even though it was slow and dull due to pressure, he was swinging his sword desperately.

Wood clatter!!

The sound of bones twisting and muscles screaming reached Darnell’s ears.

Harang continued to swing his sword with his expression unchanged.

Every time I swing, swing, swing again.

His sword, which was slow and dull, became faster, heavier, and faster, and eventually became sharper.

Chakang-!

When he finally finished one sword dance, pure white energy was clearly visible on his sword.

It was not an ordinary 5-star powerhouse. A further step forward… … .

There is probably no one here who does not know what that means.

“haha… … .”

When Harang, breathing heavily despite having only danced one sword dance, sat down on the floor, Darnel approached him and said.

“Congratulations on becoming a 6-star swordsman, master.”

Harang smiled at him and nodded.

“I feel like I’m finally at the starting line.”

When I know little, I don’t know how high the world is. However, the moment you go up even a little, you realize it. The sky is actually higher and farther away than I ever thought, so it’s not easy at all… … .

Harang closed his eyes again, fell into a trance, and took a nap.

The other masters who were watching this must have thought something and started to descend the mountain to get their swords.

Until now, I had not even thought of swinging a sword for fear of death, but how could the old masters tolerate it when they saw that young boy doing it?

“… … “You can’t believe that the stubbornness of the masters who have been practicing here for decades is being moved.”

Darnell had many thoughts.

Maybe, if it’s Harang.

I wonder if we can break Duke Kal-El’s three-month record and become the first to achieve great mastery of time and space since the second head of the family… … .

‘I don’t know yet. ‘We’re only halfway there now.’

But, if it continues like this. There is no doubt that Harang will break the records of previous Caladerns and clearly realize the Great Law of Time and Space. Darnell was sure of that.

“… … “What did you say just now?”

“I guess I should go back to my hometown.”

A few days later.

Harang, who heard the news from his home, looked somewhat urgent and prepared to go back.

“young master. Think carefully. You can never enter this place again. That’s Calathon’s rule. You haven’t yet realized the Great Law of Time and Space, right? There will never be a chance.”

“… … I know.”

However, the urgent news from the family broke Harang’s concentration.

[Soirin, the caretaker of the Green White Palace and the exclusive maid of Harang Paul Kaladan, will be hanged on the gallows on charges of assassinating a blood relative… … .]

It is undoubtedly true that Soirin tried to poison Harang some time ago. But at that time, her husband forgave her, and he knew full well that she was still working on her remorse.

but.

An image that is fixed in people’s eyes cannot be easily erased.

If a maid who had already tried to assassinate a blood relative once said that she did it again, anyone would believe it.

Who would know that Soirin has changed a lot since coming to the Green and White Palace? This is something that only Harang knows.

Of course, such a slander would be quickly resolved if Soirin’s owner personally comes forward and explains it. Even though it may not erase her immediate image, it will at least prevent her maid from being executed.

If there’s a problem.

It was said that Harang had to come down from Mount Silveria.

If Harang were to descend from here, not only would she not have learned the Great Technique of Time and Space, but Soirin would not be able to endure it mentally any longer, thinking that the master had suffered great damage because of her alone.

“young master! She’s just a maid. “Would it be okay for a young master who wants to become the world’s best swordsman to be swayed by one maid?”

“… … “He is someone I cherish.”

“The one who will become king must not be swayed by one vassal. young master. I thought you had the potential to become a king. “If you really want to come down to save a maid, then I won’t be able to teach you any more.”

Harang clenched his fists.

It was even more painful because there was nothing wrong with what Darnel said.

If he ran out of Silveria Mountain to save Soirin, that in itself would already be an act that would raise doubts about his ‘qualities as a king.’

Caladorn does not want a king who embraces his people warmly.

I want a king who is like a sharply forged sword, without blood or tears, who cold-heartedly cuts off people who make mistakes, even if they are his own.

“young master. “Give up.”

Darnell’s words kept ringing in his ears, but Harang did not want to give up on Soirin. If he threw away the first person in this world who opened his heart and accepted him, it would in itself be like giving up the personality he had built up from his previous life.

‘What should I do… … ?’

He closed his eyes tightly.

* * *

… … Meanwhile.

Green White Palace.

The wolf spirit Avalanche enjoyed quietly meditating while standing on top of the Green and White Palace. The palace of Calambrinho was not a place I liked as a spiritual object because it was a city where so many people lived, but it was very quiet.

Doo doo doo doo!!

But it’s a bit noisy today.

“What?”

When I glanced down, I saw a bunch of knights rushing in, grabbing a woman and kneeling her.

It was a familiar face.

“Hmm, you’re the maid, right?”

So Yi-rin, the maid who always helped Ha-rang.

She was assisting Avalanche at Harang’s request, and this wasn’t a bad thing.

They make you coffee when you want, cook delicious meals (I especially liked the fact that they focus on vegetables), know how to play music, decorate the place you stay in darkly to give it a cave feel, and invite a wizard to make it feel like you’re walking in the snow. When they made the ice, I really wanted to hug it.

This means that Soirin’s image as a ‘good person’ was enough to stick in Avalanche’s mind. As he held her and made her kneel, I couldn’t help but feel aroused by her, no matter how much of a spirit she was.

Wow!!

“W-what!”

“you are… … !”

So, Avalanche jumped to the ground and stood in front of Soirin, blocking the knights.

“Whoa, humans. Calm down. “I don’t know what’s going on, but can I hear the story first?”

The knights hesitated and retreated with stiff expressions. Unlike them, Avalanche smiled and said.

“Even if you don’t want to hear it, you have to. Otherwise… … “I think I will be very angry.”
