Chapter 616 Night Of Beginning. =========================================================================

Giant.

What a giant is.

What kind of people are giants?

Perhaps if you were born in this world, you’d have heard of it at least once. It’s the myth of the Dragon-Sleeping Mountains, the Last War.

For example, there was a time when dragons and humans coexisted, or we drove them out through a long war over the initiative of the world.

In fact, these are quite incredible stories. It may not be an objective fact, and perhaps it was made up on purpose to secure legitimacy in human domination of the world.

Of course, that’s why it’s called a myth.

Let’s make a point.

If there was a myth recorded before the Dragon Sleeped Mountains, the Last War, it would be the Colossus War.

a war of hands

The War of Residence is a record of giants and gods waging a war over heavenly initiative.(I mean, it’s the same.) The war of communication can be regarded as the world’s first battle for leadership, and therefore the final war can be regarded as the second war.)

Unfortunately, there is no detailed record of the giant during the war of call.

Just look at the giant and describe it.

“Not allowing all the powers of viability.”

“He was very big, muscular enough to lift a mountain.”

“Once you hit the ground with Mölnir, there will be an earthquake, and your voice is like thunder.”

“Nature is pure and loving, but on the other hand, a belligerent race who enjoys battle.”

“In particular, when a giant with the last name of ‘Kushan’ cried loudly once and leaned back, all the monsters around him ran to his head.”

“Kushan Thor, the king of giants, has the qualities to be the king of all monsters on earth.”

This is how much it records.

Additionally, Kushan Road, called the Lord of the Giants, was said to have had power almost to the point of becoming a demigod.

Anyway, as a result, the victory of the war went to the gods. The giants were defeated.

One interesting thing is that you can get a glimpse of the cause of the outbreak of the war in a story shared by God and the giant right after the war.

– A transcript.

Aryan Lord, the goddess of sadness who led the gods during the war of the Residence, asked.

“Why does the envious race that already dominates the earth go beyond heaven?”

“Is there any reason to fight us?”

Then Kushan Thor, the king of giants, said.

“There is nothing more to be achieved on earth, so I turned to heaven.”

“There is no reason to fight.”

“However, we fight.”

“We are a race that lives for fighting. That’s why we fight.”

At that time, Kushan Thor’s words were delightful and giant.

But in common sense, it’s hard to say that it’s the justification for a huge war to be called the “Ghost War.”

Even those who write feel this way, how wonderful must the gods have been to listen to the words of those days.

Aryan Road, who was deeply grieved at the death of countless relatives, is said to have been greatly angered by what Kushan Road said.

“Is it because of your strength?” People who live by their natural abilities are arrogant.”

“Come on, then fight as much as you want. But you will never rule the earth again. Now feel the pain you have to suffer, not the ruler. That’s how I will reflect on myself.”

The curse of Aryan Road did not stop talking. He visited the surviving gods in person and considered cursing the giants, and with the full support of the gods, he was able to finders.

That way is.

“Leave courage behind, but it will take away the strategy.”

Athena, too.

“Leave love behind, but there will be no peace.”

Hestita, too.

“I will leave my intelligence, but I will not allow my wisdom to evolve.”

Ganeshado.

“Leave your nature behind, but you will take away your eccentricity.”

At least Indra.

“Leave a place to live, but take away the awe of the monsters.”

The game.

“It will create insanity beyond control.”

Cali, too.

“You will be faithful to your heart.”

And Parvati.

Seven gods put a curse on Aryan Road for the giant.

Aryan Road, a collection of seven curses.

“I will deprive you of your grief.”

The giant can no longer feel the feeling of sadness.On condition of ‘, we put a seal on the giant.

So God limited his power to seven curses against giants (eight, including the terms of Aryanrod).

There is nothing left about what happened to the giants, except for what was recorded in “The Ancient Lady and the Giant.” Or it hasn’t been discovered yet.

However, some predictions are possible. The curses show that the gods do not want the extinction of giants. It’s more of a revenge than that’s it.

‘You will never rule the earth again. Now feel the pain you have to suffer, not the ruler.’

In other words, from the curse of Aryan Road, the life of the giant that followed must have been very bleak. Not only did we limit the source of control of the earth anymore, but we also limited the future.

The best race, once engaged in a war of initiative with heavenly gods, is now in a position to live the same life as other monsters.

I finally arrived at the place where the giant is.

The place where the giant was located was quiet. Ten users wary of giants tied to columns and such giants. There is a strange tension between them.

The problem was, it was the giant’s attitude.

If a monster is held captive, it is normal to make a fuss. You have to show yourself trying to escape somehow. Although it is impossible because it is tied to a pillar, shouldn’t it be necessary to show a hostile side like a baby’s weirder?

But now that giant, no. Rather, he is looking around his head with his eyes wide open and innocent face. In addition, people who stand on the perimeter and sometimes look at passers-by with curiosity. It’s kind of like looking around.

Are you sure you’re honest and naive by nature. Or….’

“Brain, come on.. It doesn’t last long.”

While analyzing the giant for a moment, Yang Ki-deok muttered in a slightly urgent voice. Kim Yu-hyun, who nodded his head to say yes, slowly moved toward the giant. The users who were on alert were surprised and tried to stop them, but Yang Ki-deok slowly stepped down when he noticed.

Soon after, as the distance was reduced to about a meter or so, the giant’s eyes naturally turned to Kim Yu-hyun. So far, no matter how much they talk to each other (although they say they don’t understand it), they have not come close. But for the first time, humans came close.

Despite being tied to a pillar and sitting on the lower body, the giant still looks down on the human body. Kim Yu-hyun, who calmly accepted the gaze, quietly opened her mouth.

“Can you hear me?”

Can you hear me?)

(Vos Legere?)

Then the giant’s eyes grow to tear apart. Kim Yu-hyun instinctively felt successful.

“Quod, Quod?”

(Oh, oh?)

(Quod, Quod?)

I really succeeded. Yang Ki-deok clenched his fists and sent a signal to the users who opened their eyes wide to be quiet. As long as that crystal ball forcibly translates every word, I can’t allow a feeble sound. Because it interferes with the conversation.

(Dh, I can you hear me? Then can you hear Hoc there too?)

(I can hear you. I think you’ve made it. I think we can talk now.)

Kim Yu-hyun doesn’t know what Hoc means, but in the context, she felt that she was a personal pronoun. No, should I call it a hoax?

…Anyway.

Two crystal balls were speaking at the same time, but you only have to listen to what you need.

But before that, strangely enough, the conversation is awkward.

(Wow, that’s amazing.) That Crystal has a voice, right?)

However, as soon as the giant continued to speak, Kim Yu-hyun was able to realize the identity of the awkwardness. It was the way of speaking.

Users’ first impression of giants is fear. In the previous battle, the giant cruelly killed the Gozo, exuding the spirit of a barbarian warrior.

Then, you need to have a tone that looks a bit cool to match your impression, but if you listen to what you’re saying now, the tone doesn’t match very well. His body is distracting and his upper body is muscular, but his way of speaking is as if he’s talking to a young child. Would you feel this way if a scary-looking guy with a tattoo on his whole body suddenly shrugs his shoulders?

The audience was surprised, but they decided to give up thinking. It’s easier to think that there’s a problem with translation magic.

However, Kim Yu-hyun looked at the giant with deep eyes.

Round eyes, round nose, and fluffy hair all over the face. The shaggy beard is invisible. Excluding the impression of the battle as much as possible, you can see things that you have not seen before.

On the contrary, when I open each one, I can see the young and younger look everywhere.

Looking back, Kim Soo-hyun said giants are at least 5 meters tall. But the giant in front of him was not up to five meters, but over four meters.

Is he a little boy?’

That’s a possibility. Kim Yoo-hyun broke the silence and opened her mouth.

Yeah, I used this crystal ball. That’s why I can talk to you.

(Gasp) That’s amazing. I heard that humans lack innate power, but use Apocrypha to supplement them, and I think my father is right.)

Human? Father?

(Do you know a human being human being?

(Yes! I’ve heard it from my father often!)

The giant laughed, saying vigorously. Then, whether they can no longer overcome the awkwardness, a couple of users turn around sighing.

(Well, it’s my first time seeing it, too. So it’s really fascinating!)

But the giant, completely indifferent, still spoke in an excited voice.

(If it’s a father…)

As the word “father” came out, Kim Yu-hyun quickly continued. Just out of the blue, we’re here to hunt this forest!Rather than asking straightforwardly, “Do you know why you are here?” I thought it would be better to continue this atmosphere.

(Oh, he’s not here right now.)

The giant replied immediately, and Kim Yu-hyun had to feel a little embarrassed. It’s a story that can be quite sensitive, but I have no qualms about it.

He’s not here?

Yeah, there was a big fight in Litura a few years ago. He was forced to leave the group because he was pushed out of the fight.)

At that moment, Lee Chae brushed Kim Yu-hyun’s eyes, which had become as thin as possible. It’s just back to normal.

(That’s too bad.)

(It’s okay, everyone says it’s wrong, but I still believe he’s right.)

Unexpected words are heard. However, Kim Yu-hyun nodded, remembering in his head that he would miss even one.

(Well, that doesn’t sound bad.)

(Hehe.)

The giant smiles brightly to see if the compliment was delivered properly.

It was then.

Sniffles!

Suddenly the sound of the stomach boiling rang quite loudly around. The giant blinked and opened his eyes and slowly lowered his gaze and stared at his stomach. Come to think of it, the giant hasn’t eaten since he was caught.

(We….)

In time.

Shall we eat something and talk a little bit more?)

Suddenly, Kim Yu-hyun’s voice softened.

*

The next day, I started marching as soon as the morning dawned. Because as far as I remember, I had to cross a mountain range today.

Clan members had recovered some strength as they had rested well yesterday. However, it was expected to be exhausting again in the afternoon, so it was necessary to cross the mountain range diligently before sunset. From now on, we’re really in the third region and it’s a great opportunity for monsters to go up and down the mountain range.

But my prediction was a good miss.

As a result of my diligent walk, I was able to cross the mountain range faster than I thought, but I haven’t been attacked a single time. Of course, it’s not a bad phenomenon, but I felt like I was being overshadowed by a firm warning to Clan members before climbing the mountain range.

So we, who quickly crossed the mountain range, were able to enter a somewhat deserted area by the time the sun was high.

After a short break, when he resumed his march, he could hear the humming that sounded like talking to himself in between. Rather than slackening, it’s probably a hum of relief that he was attacked when he climbed the mountain range in the old two areas, and this time he got over it safely.

As we crossed the plain a little further, a wide open space opened up in front of our eyes at some point. I slowly looked around.

You camped out here.’

Although it is a flaw that there is no valley, there should be enough drinking water since it is the first day of the march. For a brother who has to command 5,000 people, there would be no better campsite. Above all, the most obvious evidence was that there were still signs of camping.

“Pause for a moment.”

I took a break earlier, but I ordered a stop once again. Of course it wasn’t to rest.

“Probably…. It looks like the first camp here.”

Ko, a quick-witted performer, looked around and said. Then, he slowly bent his knees and swept the ground as if to look at the traces left on the ground. I waited for words that would quietly follow. The tracking ability itself is better than me.

“It was early this morning that I left…What?”

Soon, a feeble question arose from Ko’s mouth.

“What’s wrong?”

“That’s weird, I’m sure I camped….”

“I did.”

“There are traces of yesterday and the day before yesterday.”

So we’ve reduced the distance by at least half a day.No, wait a minute.

“Already?”

Reflectively, the eyes narrowed. That is because the Northern expedition stayed here for two days.

It was not something to pass lightly that he had two days on the first day of the march, if he had a target point ahead of him. There must be something.

“I think we need to look into it.”

As soon as I shook my hand lightly, I could feel the Clan members scattering in all directions.

However, less than five minutes later, I heard a languid voice calling for me. It was a high performance again.

As I approached the place where the sound came from, I saw Ko Yeon-ju squatting down and looking a little blank.

“Did you find it already?”

“No…, nothing to discover….”

Ko pointed to the ground, blurring the end of her words.

The moment you look down.

“……!”

A very large trail, left on the ground, caught my eye.

Two footprints.

People or monsters, basically, leave a mark on the ground. Also, a man’s monster has a monster’s own. From that point of view, the footprints you see now had a shape similar to that of a human foot. No, it’s pretty much the same.

But the problem is the size of the trail is enormous. You might think it could be just twice as big, but it’s different in size, width, and average human feet.

‘This must be…’

“One thing is for sure.”

Suddenly, the performance of Ko got up.

“This trail is never a person, it’s a monster.”

Then he lifted his foot and tapped a spot.

“There’s a sign of a pillar standing here. Probably tied up.”

“Hmm….”

So you’ve already met a giant?’

If it’s tied up, it’s most likely to be the purpose of securing the samples.

Immediately after a moment of thought, clan members scattered all over the place slowly converge.

I’ve already known the traces, so I’m in agony for a dilemma.

Ko Yeon-joo gave me a pretty accurate deduction, so should I just reveal it here? I think that would be more comfortable.’

“Well, maybe, a giant?”

It was then. Im Han-na, who was looking around along Ko Yeon-joo, carefully opened her mouth.

“A giant? Is there a giant in the world?”

When Cha Sa-rim turned her head and asked, Im Han-na smiled kindly and opened her mouth.

“Yes, I do. In the last war with the Allies, Clan Lord fought a monster believed to be a giant.”

Only then did I think of it? There were exclamations everywhere.

I’m sure that’s the case. Was the name of the giant I was with at the time Kushan Thor?

Maybe it’s not a real name. This is because there is no doubt a leader in the tribe of giants, and in mythology, the king of giants was described as “Thor.” All the giants who were called kings were called Kushan Thor.

Other than that, the king’s place is said to have been handed down directly between blood and blood, and has long been occupied by giants with the last name “Kushan.”Well, actually, that’s none of my business.

“If it’s a war with the Allies…So you’re saying it’s related to them?”

“Well, I don’t know. I’m not sure about that.?”

As if she didn’t know that, Im Han-na shook her head and shrugged.

Anyway, I was thinking about whether to reveal it or not, but thanks to Im Hanna, a good opportunity came.

“Maybe….”

It was a moment when I tried to open my mouth by expressing my gratitude inside.

“Hey, Sol, have we ever fought a giant?”

Suddenly, Lee Yu-jung’s voice came from the side. All the Clan members’ eyes are on the left. I could also see Ansol nodding his head as he turned away.

“You guys? Where?”

When asked quickly, Ansol tilts his head.

“Uh-huh? You don’t remember? We had a fight there.”

“So where.”

“There.”

“…….”

When I saw Ansol responding like a parrot, I clenched my fist. Ansol shakes his head, covering the top of his head.

“He, I mean…At that time, my brother, my brother, Hayeon, and my sister….”

“Why am I a cat!”

Then, Ansol, who was counting with his hands, suddenly jumped up.

“Oh, my God! When did I ever?”

“That’s what you just now.

“Rain, you said Vivienne!”

“That’s funny! Stuttering!”

“Yikes!”

“And why can’t you remember that?” You met one on the first floor and one on the third floor!”

When Vivienne shouted back, Ansol stepped back with a face that had nothing to say.

Anyway, one on the first floor and one on the third floor by the way. Anyway, you’re sure you remember Vivienne?

“Vivien, where were you? Where did we fight the giant?”

Then Vivien, who turned his head to the pack, poked out his mouth.

“Well, well, I don’t know.

“…….”

“And why do you ask me that?”

“…what?”

A little later.

The silence sank with a slight breath from the surrounding area. At the same time, I felt as if my mood had subsided.

“…….”

What’s wrong with them today?’

I’m in a hurry, but I can just say I saw you on the first and third floors of the research center in the ruins.

But why do you keep scratching my nerves?

“Lab of Ruins.”

I stuttered as I quickly put my mouth in to see if you read my expression.

It’s the first and third floors of the ruins..

Yeah. Come to think of it, there was a giant there, too. I forgot because it was the beginning of the second play, but now I remember.

“Suhyun, Suhyun. First of all….”

Suddenly, I could feel Hayeon gently winding her arms, but I immediately took it out and pointed at them.

“You two.”

Ansol and Vivien shuddered.

“Thank you for following me.Where are we now?”

“…….”

“If you’re going to mess up like this, why don’t you just go back.”

“…….”

Soon after, Ansol said, “I’m sorry…”I look down,” he said.

Vivienne showed signs of something very sad.

Maybe everyone knows as long as they’ve been with me. What is my least favorite behavior when I come out?

However, they are now doing the things that Lee Yu-jung used to do often.

There was a little uncomfortable silence.

I stared at the two for a while and turned my back on the word warning once.

“Let’s go.”

============================ Review of the work ============================

The giant has appeared three times so far. In the ruins lab, 2 (89 – 5 meter giant, 96 – giant (upper body) + basilisk (lower body) = gigas (animal in mythology), and 365 – giant sublet “Kushan Thor”). Like this, it’s a total of three times. You can think of the 3rd region’s target part as the one that retrieves the bait.

When I say you might be disappointed with Kim Yoo-hyun, I don’t mean that I suddenly become a pushover. You can think of it as the opposite. In other words, we’re going to show you a different side of us.

In fact, I’m Kim Yoo-hyun, who can be a generous tree to my younger brother Kim Soo-hyun, and I’ve shown that side of me a lot. But he is also a ruthless character for others, especially enemies.

Kim Soo-hyun bailed until his second year in the first round, and after meeting his brother, he achieved a lot of growth. If you think about who Kim Soo-hyun was most influenced by, you can guess what Kim Yoo-hyun is doing this time.

I read the comments well yesterday.

I thought hard before I wrote today, and I thought that changing my ideas is the right answer. I’m tired of the longer parts in the second region, and I think that you must be tired of it. Furthermore, Kim Yoo-hyun, who is now the main player, is one of the reasons.

Of course, it is impossible to change Kim Yoo-hyun to Kim Soo-hyun now. But I’ll try to squeeze it out as much as I can.(Kim Yoo-hyun’s past part is deleted, Vivien’s reconciliation part is deleted, reminiscing and recording is compressed from 6 times to 4 times, etc.) And in a way, increase the amount of each episode. I can’t guarantee that the pace of development you feel will be faster, but I won’t put it in unless it’s necessary for this three areas or future parts to development.

Thank you. _(__)_

PS. Ko Yeonjoo, Nam Daeun, Kim Hanbyul, Lee Yoojung, etc. I’ll write the scene until I get sick of it when I go to Atlanta later. 🙂
