The Player Hides His Past

Chapter 607 – Revealed (3)

World Message.

[The ‘Claudi Territory’ appears on the Arcana continent].
[All of creation bows before the ‘Claudi Territory’].
[The power of the Seven Deadly Sins, ‘Arrogance’, explodes].

“Huh?”

All the players in the imperial capital of Antonium witnessed the message.

Some could only shake their heads.

Wasn’t Claudi Territory a place that had already revealed itself?

“Just now? What a joke.”

“Tsk, tsk, read the message straight.”

“Read it straight? How can I read it straight? It’s clear as day.”

However, veteran players who do not read anything lightly understood the exact meaning. Why, [Hidden Piece] is not called Hidden for nothing.

“The Claudi Territory was a Hidden Piece, you’ve been there, you know, you had to go through a portal to get in or out of it.”

“Aha, so it’s not a Hidden Peace anymore?”

“That’s what it means, though I don’t know why.”

Like cities like Antonium, this means that Claudi Territory is now fully visible on the Arcana continent. So the question naturally turned to the second message.

“But why does everything bow before Claud?”

“Hey, if you pretend, you’re not pretending. Who is the owner of the Claudi Territory? It’s Lee Hoyeol, and considering his influence on the Arcana Continent.”

“That’s right. It’s not surprising.”

“……??”

Suddenly, a mysterious Arcanian interrupted their conversation.

The mysterious Arcanian.

No, it was a man dressed as an Arcanians, who was also a player. By the way, wait a minute, I may or may not remember the man’s face……?

The veteran player rubs his chin, trying to recall.

“There he is, haven’t we met somewhere before?”

“Well, I don’t really want to think about the past.”

“No, look at me.”

It wasn’t a player life to brag about.

A man who swallowed his words.

Baek Seongryun walked over to Antonium’s guards.

“Prepare for battle, all of you.”

Long Shenglac working for the Empire in Antonium.

After Long Shenglac’s death

Baek Seongryun stayed in Antonium to fill Long Shenglac’s shoes.

If anyone knew his identity, they might laugh at him.

Five Stars.

‘Five Stars of Heavenly Unity.’

Even if Liu Zunqun and his companion were to point fingers at him for being so shameless, Baek Seongryun didn’t feel like arguing back. Because even if he thought about it, it wasn’t wrong.

He just said.

“The past is the past.”

“What matters is always your own pride.”

“You too can stay where your heart leads you.”

Yes.

Baek Seongryun only moved as his heart led him.

The player who managed to recognize Baek Seongryun continued speaking.

“It’s you, isn’t it? I don’t know your name, but you’re an executive of the Heavenly Unity, right? I recognized you by the weapon at your waist, even though your face was covered with a mask.”

“The Heavenly Unity? Those bastards are really bad guys!”

“What the hell, what’s going on? Where did I hear the name of the Heavenly Unity?! ”

Public enemy number one.

The Heavenly Unity.

The players swarmed around him like a crowd.

“Just hearing the sound of Heavenly Unity makes me sick.”

Baek Seongryun didn’t react particularly well.

As he said, it’s okay to acknowledge the past and live in the present.

He had permission to do so.

‘Just out of pride.’

So Baek Seongryun spoke up.

“Soon, Antonium will be closed.”

“Closed? What kind of bullshit is happening all of a sudden?”

“You’re just saying anything to change the subject.”

“How the hell would an asshole like you know that…….”

I communicated the situation to the players.

“Because the evil dragons, the evil dragons, are coming.”

“……!!!”

The sneering players froze. Any other monster would have been laughed off, but the weight of a dragon was not normal. It meant that there was a one-in-one possibility.

“Hurry up, everyone!”

“Hurry to the portal.”

“Everyone, starting with children, follow the procedures!”

Moreover, from earlier, Antonium’s guardians shouted. They were evacuating the elderly and infirm, who were likely to be caught in the battle and lose their lives, to the portal leading to the Magic Tower.

Someone stuttered.

“……This, this isn’t real?”

The stuttering reply came back.

“I mean, you did get a message, didn’t you?”

“Strange malice, is that what you mean?”

“If you think that malice is what’s been affecting the dragons, then……!”

There’s a chance this guy is telling the truth.

The players glanced over at Baek Seongryun.

Baek Seongryun raised his weapon and said.

“You have only one chance to leave Antonium.”

The players knew what he meant.

If true, a siege would soon be underway to defend Antonium. The moment the siege system starts, the portal to Antonium will not be activated until the battle is over.

“Does this mean I can’t return to Seoul?”

But.

“A siege against a dragon? That’s crazy on the scale, man.”

“Crazy. My legs are shaking already.”

“The shaman said he’d sell me a house, and I guess he was serious.”

Like I said, everyone was a veteran.

“I don’t know if it’s real or not, but the Five Stars of the Heavenly Unity are not leaving, so how can I leave? I just laughed at them, and my pride won’t allow me to do so!”

It meant that everyone was thinking the same thing.

Indeed.

Not a single player had left Antonium.

Baek Seongryun was once again moved.

‘ ……Surely you could have foreseen this?’

Commander in Chief Lee Hoyeol.

You’re using me, an insignificant player, to unite the players? Baek Seongryun, who was unknowingly thinking back to the days of the Heavenly Unification, shook his head.

“No, I didn’t put myself forward, you just truly believed in me.”

It was his pride, not brainwashing or orders, that made him step forward. He wasn’t the only one. At this moment, all the players who remained in Antonium followed their pride and didn’t retreat from the battlefield to face the dragon.

And.

“Good momentum.”

Antonium had enough big names to lead their determined soldiers.

Leader of the Knights of Lionheart, Harkon Kingsguard.

He emerges from the palace.

“Good, then you have my back.”

The Red-Eyed Dune Clan.

They also appear with the Knights of the Lionheart.

One more person to mention.

Udangtang.

The door to the tavern opens with a loud bang.

“Huaam, is there a fight, then I can’t miss it!”

And of course, the last seat of the Mercenary Corps, Rockid.

With that, Antonium was ready to face the evil dragon.

And so it was.

It may have been because of the intimidation of having to face a dragon.

What they overlooked was that.

*

AAU,

“Huaam, are you okay, senior?”

“Are you shooting? Thank you. Anyway, what is it?”

“No, the air is different!”

Two people returning from a business trip in the United States.

Sung Hyunjoon was fully immersed in the so-called American culture. His chin is slightly bulging from inhaling three or four hamburgers for every meal. His gaze sweeps over the AAU Korea branch.

“If you think about it, it’s unfair. I get the same salary under the same AAU, but the working environment is so different! I’m so surprised! Oh my God, they don’t work overtime, and they have flexible hours.”

“Yeah, I was definitely jealous of that.”

“And the worst part is that…….”

Sung whispered in a low voice.

“You don’t even have our branch manager Park there!”

“I knew you were going to say that.”

“No, he said that working overtime as soon as he got back was too much. Sure, there’s something strange going on in the Arcana Continent, but no matter what, it’s not like this is……!”

It was the moment when Sung Hyunjoon spoke passionately about the work-life balance of developed countries.

“Mr. Soogyeom, Mr. Hyunjoon. What are you doing here?”

There was a coworker talking to me from behind.

Did he hear what you said to Mr. Park?

Sung Hyunjoon hesitated for a moment.

Yoon noticed a hint of suspicion in his coworkers’ expressions.

“Did something happen?”

“That’s right, at the Magic Tower.”

“Magic Tower? What Magic Tower?”

It was the Magic Tower, where a special conference was being held.

The previous generation of senior mages had emerged from the unknown space that was Amethyst Hall. The AAU had no choice but to focus their attention on the Magic Tower, which had become a mass of variables.

So he immediately asked.

“Are the seniors of the previous generation planning a rebellion? Why, according to the players in Magic Tower, there’s even one former elder mage in the group, so they’re quite capable……!”

But they were wrong.

shaking head.

The woman shook her head.

“Hyunjoon-ssi, try to calm down. It’s the Magic Tower, but it’s not there.”

“No, then what’s wrong with you?”

“The Arcanians warped out of the Magic Tower portal.”

“……What?”

“You don’t mean the Knights of the Lionheart, do you?”

As expected, shaking head.

“I’d rather it was the Lionheart Knights, because it would be reassuring in many ways if the Lionheart Knights appeared in Seoul, which is often in chaos due to special conferences. But…….”

The woman’s pupils fluttered as she spoke.

“They’re just regular people.”

“What? Commoners? What’s that…..?”

“To be exact, they say they are the elderly and infirm people of Antonium?”

The two people, who were quick to notice the woman’s words, exchanged glances.

“You mean, Antonium is in danger of falling?”

The imperial capital was in danger of falling, and the elderly and infirm were the first to be evacuated. That was the only possibility that came to mind. Sung said impatiently.

“No, I’m sure the players know more than that, they must have witnessed it in Antonium, so what did they say when they came back together, seniors?! ”

But what came back was a sigh.

“Huu, if they did, I wouldn’t have gotten into such trouble.”

“What? What do you mean?”

“Nobody’s warped in.”

“……!!”

Sung and Yoon’s eyes widened at the same time.

“Not a single player has returned to the real world.”

“Then you still don’t know why?”

“So, a few players are preparing to enter the Arcana Continent.”

Leading the charge was the Great Alliance that was the foundation of Seoul.

Except for Gaon, who was the first to enter the Arcana continent.

Two guilds, Inazuma and Berserker, are heading to the Magic Tower.

Sung nodded.

“Hisagi and Leonie-ssi, if it’s them, you don’t have to worry!”

But the AAU had also been overlooked.

Seoul has become a land of anomalies.

Dragons that could travel between dimensions at will.

That they could appear in the skies above Seoul at any time.

…

Hisagi and Leonie have entered the Anomaly realm.

The two stop in the street.

Their gazes meet briefly.

From the sky.

Krrrrraaaaa-!!

A resounding Dragon Fear strikes Seoul.

[Status Abnormality, ‘Confusion’ occurs].

“What the fuck……!”

Because we have entered the realm of strangeness. Even with Dragon Fear filled with murderous intent, Leonie was able to pass over to the status abnormality [Confusion]. But other people, no, ordinary people walking on the streets are definitely…!!

“!”

Leonie reflexively turned her head away, and then gasped.

Gooooooo.

Leoni and Hisagi’s gazes turned toward the source of the uncontrollable magic that was protecting Seoul.

There was the Magic Tower.

It was as if all restraints had been lifted.

The Magic Tower emits an overwhelming radiance.

Tower Master, Marcelo.

“Your will be done, my lord.”

Marcelo declared before the assembled senior mages.

“As of this time, we will begin the Dragon & Mage War.”

The suppressed magical power fluctuates as if running wild.

“Everything.”

This is my last request.

“For Chief Lee Hoyeol.”
