    Episode 223

    ‘Peter Pan and his sister?’

    Bill who had found his lost memories spoke urgently.

    “I remember now. The captain clearly caused the waves to sink the ship and fought that pretty but scary knight.”

    “Where are they now?”

    “Over there… it went inside.”

    “Inside the ruins?”

    “Yes. That’s right. Since the captain couldn’t handle you at sea the silver knight escaped to that side. The captain went to catch you and told us to wait here and block any guys who came in.”

    Zeke heard Bill’s words and realized that Carly was being chased by Peter Pan.

    ‘If we delay any longer Sister Carly may be killed by Peter Pan like in her previous life.’

    Zeke said to Bill.

    “Bill help me. Then I can save you and your captain.”

    If Peter Pan kills Carly there will be no turning back.

    Abel was sure to kill all the people and cover up what happened here saying he would avenge Kali.

    Bill’s face turned pale at Zeke’s words.

    “We have to save the captain. Can you do that sir?”

    “Yes your leader must be cooperating because your people are being held hostage by the Empire.”

    Then Bill nodded vigorously.

    “That’s right. That’s right.”

    “Take me to the captain and I will help you rescue the captured fishermen.”

    Bill hesitated at Zeke’s words and then got up from his seat.

    “Okay. I’ll take you to where the captain is so follow me. Do you know how to swim?”

    As Zeke nodded Bill led him into the seawater of the circular space they had entered earlier and pointed to one side with only his upper body exposed.

    “There’s a road this way!”

    And then he went straight into the water.

    Zeke followed Bill into the water and dove.

    But when I dived my newly acquired skill ‘underwater breathing’ started working.

    ‘It’s amazing that you can breathe in water.’

    Zeke followed Bill swimming through the water with much greater ease.

    The space created under the sea was much larger than the temple seen from above.

    But this place too had been destroyed by someone and had become a ruin.

    Zeke followed Bill inside the ruined underwater temple.

    At that moment a large entrance appeared below. As soon as he confirmed the entrance a message appeared before Zeke’s eyes.

    [Enter the Deep Sea Tribe’s haven.]

    ‘Deep sea tribe?’

    In context it seemed to refer to ancient fishermen.

    ‘Are the ancient Jo-in tribe the Sky tribe and the ancient Fish tribe the Deep Sea tribe?’

    Zeke followed Bill into the depths of the Deep Sea Tribe’s haven.

    Bill gestured to Zeke and pointed above the water.

    The two people went straight up to the water.

    “Phuha!”

    Just as when they entered the two emerged into a huge circular space filled with seawater.

    Zig ascended to the ground temple and used his mana to blow away the sea water.

    Thud!

    Dried salt crystals fell down.

    Bill looked at that Zig with curiosity.

    “You’re a very capable knight. I’ve never seen anyone stay underwater for as long as we have.”

    “It’s nothing special. But Bill do you know where this place is?”

    Bill shook his head at Zeke’s question.

    “We don’t know that either. They must have been taken in by the drug. It seems like they brought us here because it’s hard for people to get in here so they brought us in to see what’s inside.”

    “Do you remember what I asked you to find?”

    “It’s faint but… I think he told me to come and tell him if there was anything dangerous or rare.”

    As Zeke had expected it seemed that they had ordered the fishermen to explore this ruins site.

    ‘I don’t think you know that this is the site of the Haesin’s relics.’

    Zeke had always wondered how the Empire knew where the ancient ruins were.

    I don’t know exactly what or where the ruins are but I think I know that there is something nearby.

    ‘Is there a magical artifact specialized for navigation like a compass in the Abyss?’

    It was difficult to make any conclusions about them because they were people who practiced such bizarre magic and sorcery.

    Zeke followed Bill further into the ruins.

    At that moment Bill who was going inside the ruins looked at the floor and made a puzzled expression.

    “Huh? What is this?”

    “But why.”

    Bill said pointing to the floor.

    “There are footprints I’ve never seen before.”

    Zeke approached and checked and it was traces of the Imperial Army.

    ‘I see that he is digging deep and he is wearing armor and his stride is even but something feels unnatural.’

    Zeke realized that these footprints were mine’s.

    In an instant Zeke pushed Bill away and pushed him against the wall.

    He pointed to one side and motioned for Bill to be quiet.

    There were mines wandering around in the hallway across the street.

    Zeke whispered softly to Bill.

    “Is there another way in this direction?”

    “That could be true. It’s a very large ruins site. The captain and the silver knight might have come through different entrances.”

    It seemed that the imperial army had advanced to an area deemed safe.

    Zeke left Bill and approached the mines.

    First he took out the ghost bottle and looked around.

    ‘Is it because it’s so big? There are only three people here.’

    If things got noisy there was a chance that Carly and Peter Pan would run away to somewhere else.

    Since he would miss it again Zeke decided to handle it as quietly as possible.

    He secretly exercised his shadowy power.

    Tsk tsk tsk―

    As Zeke’s shadow widened it came into contact with the shadows of the mines.

    Kukuku-

    As Zeke’s shadow caught the shadows of the minions they stopped moving.

    At the same time Zeke moved the ghost soldier to grab the bodies of the minions.

    Then he quickly jumped out and cut off its head with the dragon’s claw.

    The ghost soldier grabbed the fallen neck by the chin.

    In that way Zig eliminated three mines in an instant.

    He swallowed the mines with gluttony so as not to leave a trace.

    Tsk tsk tsk―

    The mines wrapped in shadows soon disappeared without a trace.

    [I gorged on the corrupted mines that had been eroded by magic.]

    [The consumed stamina and mental power mana replenishes.]

    [300 Karma Points will be awarded as compensation.]

    Each person received 100 points.

    ‘That’s pretty substantial.’

    The mines eroded by magic had high karma points and could also binge eat so they were effective when defeated.

    After dealing with the mines neatly Zeke turned to Bill and gestured but Bill was trembling as he looked at him.

    “Sir are you a monster? Even if you eat me it won’t taste good…”

    He seemed surprised to see Mine killed in one breath and eaten by his shadow.

    “If you were a real monster why would I have left you alone until now? Stop worrying about useless things and just show me the way. That was just magic.”

    Bill who had been taken aback by the words brushed aside his surprised chest and went back inside the temple.

    He entered through a hole in one corner of the temple wall.

    “I waited here and when the captain came I moved according to their orders.”

    I followed him into the hole and saw a makeshift camp.

    Bill shouted as he went further in.

    “Sir! You’re here! Bill!”

    That was when.

    Zig sensed something strange for a moment and grabbed the back of his neck.

    WHEEK!

    A sharp sword protruded from the wall.

    “Eek! What what!”

    Zeke threw Bill back pulled out Bahamut and activated Hersion.

    Clang!

    The reason he equipped Hersion was because the enemy’s aura felt behind the wall was formidable.

    ‘What is this energy?’

    It had a ferocious aura like a mine but it seemed more refined.

    A similar feeling of energy came to Zeke’s mind.

    ‘Demon?’

    thud!

    Suddenly an armored knight appeared from behind the wall.

    It was impossible to identify him because he was wearing full plate armor covering his entire body and his face was covered by a helmet.

    Zeke recognized the armor the mysterious knight was wearing as Hersion.

    ‘Are you a knight of the empire?’

    Then the knight moved.

    bang!

    He was quite far away but with just one step he flew all the way to where Zeke was.

    As soon as the knight flew in he swung his sword at Zeke.

    Boom!

    Zeke lifted Bahamut and blocked the knight’s sword.

    But it felt like the knight’s sword strike was seeping into Zeke’s body.

    ‘What is this?’

    Zeke took a hasty step back.

    He became aware of the identity of the energy that passed through his body.

    ‘Gangpa resonance? No it’s a bit different from that. Is it a different type of speculative technique?’

    If it had been a normal knight the attack just now would have scattered his aura and he wouldn’t have been able to stand properly.

    Zeke held Bahamut and caused a strong resonance.

    Woohoo!

    The waves spread out around him.

    The knight flinched as he felt the waves emanating from Zeke.

    He took up his sword again and aimed it at Zeke.

    ‘The swordsmanship is imperial style but the techniques used are the fighting techniques of the Demon Tribe.’

    It was an opponent whose identity was difficult to guess.

    Zeke also aimed his sword and called out to Arataso in his mind.

    ‘What is it?’

    ‘Arataso look at the speculation technique that the article is using right now.’

    ‘Do you think speculation is some kind of child’s play? Humans can’t use it…’

    Pachin!

    ‘…is there?’

    Arataso was perplexed when he saw the speculative skills of the article that contained the wave.

    The knight swung his sword repeatedly this time.

    Pachin! Pachin! Pachin!

    Even simple sword strikes contained waves making them quite difficult to deal with.

    But that was only the case for ordinary knights.

    Zeke gradually began to read the wave pattern that the knight was loading onto his sword and neutralized it with strong resonance thus canceling out the knight’s sword strike.

    Pachin!

    Before he knew it Zeke’s sword had pushed away the knight’s sword and struck back.

    thud!

    The knight whose swordsmanship was delayed took a big step back.

    Zik who had caught the feeling nodded and smiled.

    “Okay I’ll make you tell me who you are in no time.”

    At Zeke’s words the knight took up his position again.

    But surprisingly the posture he had fixed was none other than the rider form of the Yongsal method.

    ‘This kid? No way?’

    Boom!

    The knight stomped hard and unleashed his dragon-slaying technique on Zeke.

    An advanced dragon killing technique that is only taught to the official Drake knights not even the basic dragon killing technique was revealed.

    Advanced Dragon Slaughter Technique

    The third type

    Thunder Sword

    The sword fell towards Zigg as quickly as a bolt of lightning.

    Zeke stepped forward towards the knight and used his dragon killing technique as well.

    Dragon’s Sword Technique

    Chapter 1 Section 2

    pierce the sky

    Zeke’s sword pierced the lightning and shot straight forward.

    Kwakwakwang!

    The sword that had strayed completely scorched the place where Zig had been.

    Zeke took advantage of the gap and swung his sword.

    Kkwadduk!

    Bahamut hit the knight’s armor.

    Ziggy loaded the Sky Stab sword strike with a wave of strong resonance.

    Kwakwakwakwa!

    The waves penetrated the knight’s body and vibrated his circuits.

    Kkwaddudduk!

    The knight was thrown back against the wall by the powerful impact.

    Kwakwakwang!

    The article crashed straight through the wall.

    Thud thud thud!

    Stones rolled down from the broken wall.

    Zeke slowly approached the fallen knight.

    When I got closer to check the knight’s breathing seemed to be almost stopped.

    Zeke quickly used his Shadow Mastery to read the knight’s memories.

    As he was on the verge of death only fragmented and piecemeal information flowed into his head.

    Zig frowned as he read the information.

    The fallen knight was none other than one of the knights belonging to the Silver Knights.

    Zeke quickly read more information.

    ‘The information is too fragmented. Baptism? That word keeps repeating. And another word keeps repeating…’

    Zeke clenched his teeth as he looked at the fallen knight.

    “Hail Siemens.”

    It was something I heard clearly when I looked into Aaron’s memories.

    Zeke’s expression turned cold.

    “This kid was raised by Siemens.”

    Just like Night Killer he was brainwashed from a young age and raised as a knight then made into a knight of Draker and then had him join the Knights of Baek.

    Sieg was appalled by Siemens’ tricks.

    ‘Aren’t they completely crazy?’

    He had been preparing step by step for over a decade to strike Kali from behind at the crucial moment.

    Soon the knight fell to his death breathless.

    At that moment Bill’s urgent voice burst out from inside the room.

    “Sir! We’re in big trouble! Our leader is dead!”
