The yojo soars through clear skies, rapidly flying through the air.

The target is a magnificent tree on the hillside.

It was a tree thousands of feet away from me, looking up at the mountain, but the jojojojo blew off its torso with precise passing.

Looking at the sagging, rough-looking giant, Old Cloud recites in a small voice.

“You've become quite adept at flying swords. ”

I hold my head back, catching the rising tide at the same speed as a flash.

“I've been practicing a lot. ”

“It looks like you can now operate two bags · · · · · · ·. ”

It was a question of whether you were unwilling to rise to the rank of a mind master.

Humans are judged by the number of celestial swords they run when they divide the rank of mind masters.

One's a novice. Two's a minor. Three to four are intermediate. Beyond that, the number of swords in the sky is evaluated in this way.

I turned the tide and shoved it into the sword.

“I need a pair of yo-yos. ”

“But two is better than one. ”

“But there are two that are less than one. Discord.”

“Isn't that what you need to do to create harmony through training? ”

Of course, if they were in harmony, they could be stronger than three or four, creating a large synergy.

However, harmony and dissonance can only mean that everyone's strength is strengthened and weakened, but if they dig into their essence, they are the same.

the interaction between one and the other.

I walked to Grandpa Cloud's mansion and said,

“If I can make it work, like Grandpa said, I'll be stronger. But one more sword of mine will never defeat my enemy with that much strength. ”

“You mean Kronos? ”

“Yes. You need more intrinsic strength to beat them. I need to take my landscape to the next level. ”

Old Cloud followed me.

“But do you really need to fight them? ”

“They've killed hundreds of thousands of people in the last few years. What the hell are you gonna do with the blood? ”

“But when war breaks out against them, more blood will flow. ”

I know, but if we don't drive them out, humanity will perish.

“But there's less blood to be spilled for them in the future. ”

“Is that how much damage Kronos has done? ”

“Yes. How many countries have perished because of them, and how many innocent victims have died in between? ”

“But the country that is doomed is doomed. ”

“Of course, it's written in history. But it's just history, and we don't know the truth about living in the present. It was a long time ago. The same thing happened to the victim. If our empire and the kingdom of Bastein had not revolted, history would have judged him to be a fugitive. ”

“You're absolutely right. ”

Grandpa Cloud agreed to my wishes. But I wasn't convinced.

He used to be as wary of the heavenly city of Kronos as Cloud.

Nevertheless, Kronos has not been able to turn his hatred of Kronos into an act because Kronos was so powerful that Humans could not touch it.

“Forget it. Let's just eat. ”

I entered the mansion and lit a fire in the garden.

I put the meat on the hook I brought and said again, putting it on the fire.

“Grandpa, how are you doing here? ”

Old Cloud looked at the mansion with a subtle gaze.

“Far enough from it. ”

“Why? Is the house too small? ”

“The narrow is too wide a problem. What the hell kind of mansion is this deep mountain? Even if you try to clean it, you have to waste a day. ”

I smiled bitterly.

“Grandpa understands. Other than that, he's a big Imperial man, so I'll entertain him. ”

“It's not entertainment, it's Jim. ”

“There are also political reasons. ”

“Why? ”

“Sir Refent. The head of the Cloud family, the seven grandchildren. ”

“What about him? ”

“The last civil war scares the hell out of me, and I'm trying to be nice to Grandpa now. Maybe if I ignore him, he'll raise his voice to impress me. Other than that, he's the head of the Grand Duke, which is a burden on me. ”

Old Cloud frowns a lot.

It seemed frustrating that the fate of the bloodline was interfering with his freedom.

“Anyway, even though he's old enough to die, he never grows up. Pathetic. Pathetic. ”

“Still, I'm the next noun in the Reich. The power of the Cloud family itself is enormous, and it rests on the back of an old man. ”

“When did I support him? ”

“Even if Grandpa doesn't support it, others think so. The Duke of Cloud is a grandfather. ”

Grandpa left everything behind, but it was Duke Cloud.

No matter the name, the head of the Cloud family was an old man.

Lord Refent was most unfortunate, but he could say he carried Old Cloud on his back while ruling the Cloud family on his behalf.

The Duke of Cloud is, in fact, the head of the Duke of Cloud.

Old Cloud sighs for a long time.

“I think I'll pass it on to you soon. ”

I waved my hand.

“It's pointless. I'm just confused by the title. Lord Refent will be torn to pieces, of course, but nothing will change. ”

“Well, I'm still alive. ”

That said, I stopped grilling and looked at Old Cloud.

Gramps was a voice devoted to the fact that he could not break the world because he simply inherited the blood of the cloud, but it came to me in a different way.

Old Cloud should have died in mourning years ago if it had been the way it was.

“So you should be thanking me. ”

“What do you mean? ”

“No, nothing. ”

“Freshman. ”

I started grilling again, smiling bloody.

It wasn't even something to be thankful for. Thanks to you, Grandpa might even have to live in the age of destruction.

In a way, I did something terrible.

Instead of giving her a short life, she added the life of hell as an appendix.

At that moment, Grandpa suddenly grabbed his knife and looked up at the northern sky.

He suddenly opened his eyes, looking in the same direction.

It's because a powerful energy was approaching here from afar.

“Valkyrie?”

At Grandpa's words, I shook my head.

The coming entity was somewhat weaker than Grandpa Cloud, but was emitting an energy that was superior to me.

He must be more powerful than a regular Valkyrie.

“No.”

“Then who is it? ”

“You must be a runaway Orc. There's more power out there than that old hag? ”

I loosened my guard and began to relax again, but old Cloud looked up to the northern sky, where enormous energy was approaching as he increased his life.

He seemed nervous about the fact that the only rival was coming.

Immediately, an old oak carrying a double-edged axe landed in front of us.

It was just a Grolmog.

He gave me his eye only after a long fight with Old Cloud.

“Humans. Were you there? ”

I tackled the grilled meat and threw it at Grolmog.

“You must be hungry for the long haul. Eat that. ”

Grolmog stares at Old Cloud with a slice of roasted meat.

“I don't know. Maybe this old man got me right down the throat. ”

I sighed deeply at the two old legs looking at each other as if they were still killing each other.

“Hey, old Orc. Come and sit down. You didn't come all this way to fight Old Cloud, did you? ”

Grolmog approaches me with the sound of an Orc snoring.

“Humans. Do you come here often? ”

“Often. Though we're on our way alone, Grandpa Cloud and I have the same goal to help each other." ”

Grolmog looks at Grandpa Cloud approaching me.

“I was alive, by the way. If you live that long, maybe it's time to end your life and go back. ”

“You're the one who's lived long enough. Now that you have a strong successor named Zenbe, you don't seem foolish in your life. Why don't you leave? ”

“But as long as you're alive, you can't be foolish. As long as you're alive, our Orcs have no rest. ”

“So am I. You're alive. I can't give up on you. ”

They were still two old men who stood up to me.

When I decided to clean up, I clapped my hands and said,

“Then we can both die here with knives. It's a clean, clean way to go, isn't it? ”

“You!”

At the same time, old age erupted from Old Cloud and Gromlog's mouths.

With his mouth, he talked about not being foolish in the world, but he didn't want to die.

“Be honest with yourself. There's nothing more detrimental to training than deceiving yourself. ”

“Hmmm · · · · · · · ·. ”

Like the circle of humanity, the two grandfathers quickly understood my words and sat down.

The Mind Master was a creature that explored the human mind.

So I knew very well how dangerous it was to deceive myself.

Deceiving yourself is like finding a path with the wrong compass for the mind master.

Heaven never opens the way for these people.

I peered at Grolmovg as I grabbed the ripe meat.

“But how did you know Grandpa Cloud was here? ”

“I came across him by chance, and I felt his energy. So I stopped by once. ”

It was in the mountains deep within the Drewin Mountains.

And because the Dwight Mountains face Orc meadows with rare human traces, Orcs are often heard.

So it could be a coincidence, but I didn't believe it.

“How many times do I have to tell you? Don't kid yourself. ”

Grolmog clears his throat and corrects himself.

“Rumor has it he lives around here. Anyway, you live in a good place. The flowing water is clear and the landscape is not too bad. ”

It seemed to have a special purpose.

I'm being ridiculous because of my pride, but I'm sure he's up to something, so he must have come to me.

And it became roughly predictable. It got stuck somewhere along the way.

“Don't you know where the soul is? ”

At that moment, Grolmog's eyes tremble.

It was probably a good shot.

“Well, that's ambiguous. If our souls are the energy of chaos and emptiness, we should feel the disparate nature of the party, but not at all. ”

“Yes, it is. ”

“If so, it's clear he's not staying with us, and I can't shake the idea that there isn't. ”

“Oh, so you've come to ask me that? ”

“Hmmm · · · · · · · ·. ”

Grolmog stares at the distant mountains, his eyes distant.

Seems like it's been a difficult march, but unfortunately we didn't have much to say either.

“What should I do if I'm sorry? Wrong number. ”

“Why?”

“We don't know. I know it's nowhere, and I know it's somewhere, but I don't know what it is. ”

Grolmog looks greatly disappointed.

Perhaps we expected to know.

“I see. I had no idea. So it's the ultimate reason no one in the world knows? ”

I scratched my nose.

“Well, not at all. If knowing the location of the soul is the path you must take to reach the Soul Master, one must know it. ”

“Who? ”

“Yes. It's a Valkyrie called Savondia, and she joined the Soul Master herself. ”

Grolmog's eyes widen.

“Then why aren't you looking for him? ”

“I'm being chased by Kronos. That's not why it's so difficult to meet. ”

Old Cloud chants to me, putting dry branches in the campfire.

“Does being difficult mean that it's not just impossible? ”

“Of course I know the connection, but it's not easy. ”

“Is that connection a person? ”

“Yeah, but why? ”

Grandpa Cloud is awake.

“Then that's it. Let me try to convince you of that connection. ”

“Oh, come on! I said no.”

“Why?”

“He should not be known. To anyone.”

Savannah is the only hope of saving the world.

If Kronos finds out about it because of the cage, it would be better not to visit it if it could be a great misfortune for mankind.

And I'm about to be number one or number two in Kronos, and there's a lot more static.

We can't be sure the tail is off, so we should be more careful.

But old Cloud saw more and more that his body was sweet.

“But if the path you want to take is open, you have to go. ”

Grolmog taps his sack like he was killed.

“Even if it's not open, I remember the way. ”

I bit my lip tightly.

It seemed that the two elders had no intention of retreating at all.

I'm curious, though.

I wanted to pave the way for myself if I could, but I wanted to hear a hint.

“Fine. Then don't go looking for him. I'll call him and ask him. I'm just asking questions and answerings.You don't have to meet me. ”

In my opinion, Grandpa Cloud and Grolmog stared back at each other.

All you had to do was listen to me. There was no reason to meet.

“I see. Then please. ”
