Only I Have Two Towers Episode 109
The Place Where the Sword is Buried
Jinhyeok, who had been standing there dumbfounded, walked to the edge of the cliff.
“Don’t tell me that tiny dot is the ground?”
It wasn’t that fog or clouds were blocking his vision.
It was just that this cliff was so high that it was difficult to gauge the distance with the naked eye.
“Kancheo, what do you think?”
“I can’t see it either!”
Kancheo, the Yodel Ranger with the best eyesight among the party members.
If even Kancheo couldn’t see it, then the ground was truly ridiculously deep.
“Hey Yodel Raccoon. Could you come here for a moment?”
Ellia gestured for Kancheo to come over.
Kancheo made a face full of dissatisfaction.
“If it’s Yodel then it’s Yodel, if it’s Raccoon then it’s Raccoon, but what the heck is a Yodel Raccoon! That weird udon!”
Kancheo, who was still confusing jjamppong and udon today.
But it seemed his vocabulary skills were gradually improving, which was gratifying.
Ellia, who had been rummaging through her bag, handed over a small bundle.
“What is this? This thing that looks like a foot towel.”
“How dare you! How impudent! Calling the invention of the century a foot towel. This, if I may say so, is an amazing survival item that can keep you alive no matter what height you fall from!”
“Isn’t that a lie? But why are you suddenly giving me this?”
“As a Yodel Ranger, you have the responsibility to carry out reconnaissance missions for the party, don’t you?”
“That’s right.”
Ellia pointed at the cliff with her finger.
“Jump down.”
Jinhyeok and Momo, who were startled, covered their mouths.
“She’s a demon.”
Of course, they said this simultaneously.
However, Kancheo’s reaction was unexpected.
I thought he would scream, “What crazy nonsense is this insane eccentric old hag spouting!”
But perhaps because of the word “responsibility,” he was making an incredibly solemn expression.
Kancheo, who had taken the bundle, approached Jinhyeok.
“Loyalty! Yodel Ranger Vice-Captain Kancheo! I will carry out the reconnaissance mission and return!”
“No way. Who knows what’s down there. Besides.”
He approached Kancheo and lowered his voice.
“This bundle looks kind of dangerous.”
No matter how he looked at it, it was just an ordinary bundle.
Since it was given by the Star Alchemist, there might be hidden functions, but it was too risky to jump down relying only on this.
“It’s fine! Carrying out reconnaissance in any environment and conditions is what a Yodel Ranger does! Deploying!”
“Kancheooooo!”
He reached out his hand belatedly, but it was a step too late.
Kancheo had jumped down without giving him a chance to stop him.
“No! Kancheo’s gone! Who am I going to play games with now! I always want to win!”
Momo slumped down.
The point of her sadness was somewhat strange, but anyway.
Ellia, who had sauntered over, rubbed her chin.
“He really jumped down.”
“The bundle’s ability is certain, right?”
“Master, do you know what the placebo effect is?”
“When a patient’s symptoms improve because they believe fake medicine is real medicine, even though they took fake medicine?”
“That’s right.”
Jinhyeok’s pupils shook frighteningly.
He was afraid to even ask because he could predict what she would say next.
Ellia didn’t bother to say the next words either.
She just gave a thumbs up with a bright face.
‘She’s a demon.’
Confirming this once again, he looked down the cliff.
Kancheo, who had fallen down, had already gone so far that not even a tiny dot could be seen.
Hoping for the scout’s safe return for a moment.
With a splash sound, Kancheo appeared.
He was completely soaked, as if he had been caught in the rain.
“Loyalty! Yodel Ranger Vice-Captain Kancheo! I have completed the reconnaissance mission and returned!”
“Kancheooooo!”
He hugged Kancheo, who had returned safely.
“Fortunately, the bundle worked well! I landed safely!”
“As expected of me.”
Ellia nodded and made a proud expression.
It was certain.
She was a 3,271-year-old witch.
“The bottom is ridiculously deep. I had to fall for a long time before arriving. And I picked this up.”
Kancheo took out a small stone from his Yodel bag.
A stone with a smooth texture and a mysterious blue tint.
“Ooh… Is this lapis?”
“Isn’t the old hag just saying random things again?”
“How dare you. A 3,271-year-old elf knows everything, you know? This is a gemstone that’s very rarely found in spirit-infused lakes.”
“Give it to Momo! This is super expensive!”
“It’s not just expensive, you know? Spirits don’t dwell in just any lake. Not only must the water be incredibly clear, but it must also overflow with life force. This is a stone that has been forged by such energy for hundreds of years.”
Ding!
[You have discovered the final clue for the Legendary Quest ‘Traces of the Black Knight Order’!]
[You have cleared the 9th Floor of the Mythic Tower!]
[10th Floor of the Mythic Tower entry condition: Complete the ‘Traces of the Black Knight Order’ Quest]
[Exiting the 9th Floor of the Mythic Tower!]
Right after returning from the 9th Floor of the Mythic Tower.
[You have cleared the 56th Floor of the Tower of Despair!]
[Time taken: 17 seconds. You obtain SSS+ grade!]
[Player Yoo Jin-hyeok’s experience points increase! Current experience: 43%]
[Card heroes’ experience points increase!]
He quickly took care of the Tower of Despair as well.
[You obtain 320 Ochark Fangs and 117 Baby Basilisk Claws!]
[Collector Momo’s Skillful Hands is applied, upgrading the grade of each component!]
Momo sat down with a thud on the ryokan floor, organizing today’s obtained components.
She was sitting with her back to Ellia, afraid of having her components stolen again.
Whether she did that or not, Ellia was sneakily taking them one by one whenever Momo looked away.
‘As expected of experience.’
He nodded and stretched.
Then he examined the lapis brought from the Mythic Tower.
# This is a gemstone that was sleeping in a deep lake.
# It has absorbed the clear energy of the lake for hundreds of years.
# If it meets an excellent craftsman, it can be born as an accessory with special functions.
He let out a low murmur.
The next entry condition for the Mythic Tower was clearing a Legendary Quest.
In other words, unlike Raven’s case, it meant the next sword couldn’t be found in the Mythic Tower.
‘Either it’s in reality like Muramasa, or it’s in the Tower of Despair. If it’s the former.’
He took out the Yodel Compass.
“Tomb of Swords.”
The Yodel Compass that shows direction when you say the name of any place you want to go.
But it didn’t react to the name he just said.
Rather than not existing, maybe the defined name is different.
Next, he brought out Lapis.
If there was another Lapis, it would guide him there.
‘Please react!’
He swallowed dry saliva and prayed earnestly.
If it’s neither the Mythic Tower nor here, only the Tower of Despair remains.
Since he doesn’t know when the related floor will appear, clearing the Quest becomes unpredictable.
If it’s a special floor that only appears when using compression tickets, the situation would be the worst.
‘React. React. React. React.’
He repeated it almost like voodoo for a moment.
Whirrrrrr.
The compass needle and numbers began changing rapidly.
The direction was quickly determined, but the numbers kept rising without stopping.
When the numbers finally stopped, Kancheo’s mouth fell open.
“The number is big!”
# 11,000,000.
“Right. How many zeros are there.”
Jinhyeok counted the zeros one by one.
11,000 kilometers.
Damn far.
Even Jade Dragon Snow Mountain, which he visited to find the Imugi, was 3,000 kilometers away.
This is almost four times that distance.
‘But still. The fact that the compass reacted means.’
He began rubbing his chin quickly.
It meant that the place where Khan, the vice-captain of the Black Knight Order, and his knights headed, the place Seira called the Tomb of Swords, was in this world.
He quickly opened the map app to estimate the area by direction and distance.
The country was Wales, United Kingdom.
The location based on distance was Snowdonia National Park, famous as a tourist spot.
“Huh? A tourist spot?”
He couldn’t help but be puzzled.
He naturally thought it would be a place untouched by human footsteps, but suddenly it’s a tourist spot.
Thanks to that, it would be easy to get there, but it’s questionable whether the Tomb of Swords and the third sword really exist there.
‘It’s hard to say it’s 100% certain.’
There’s no law saying Lapis must only be in the Tomb of Swords.
It means that after traveling 11,000 kilometers, there might just be a single piece of Lapis instead of the Tomb of Swords.
However, he had no choice but to go.
Since Lapis is the only clue to the sword he currently has.
“Are we going far again?”
“Yeah. Much farther than last time.”
“Momo wants to go too!”
“Of course we’re going together. Let me check the flight prices.”
Now that he knew the location, there was no time to hesitate.
He had to go immediately, even for the next Mythic Tower climb.
Jinhyeok carefully checked business class.
Thanks to taking first class to Japan, his standards had gotten a bit higher.
“Oh.”
He quickly unchecked after seeing the changed price.
With this money, he could eat hundreds more chickens.
Business class was rejected by chicken theory.
Then Momo, who was organizing accessories, ran over and clung to him.
“Momo wants to ride the airplane too!”
“I want to eat in-flight meals while looking out the window too!”
Kancheo, Momo’s best friend, also hung onto Jinhyeok’s waist.
These friends had been saying they wanted to ride an airplane directly since last time.
Back then he said no because there were no seats and he had to save money, but seeing their frighteningly sparkling eyes made his heart soften.
‘Since it’s their first flight, I want to get them good seats.’
He needed a total of six tickets.
Looking at first class prices made his hands tremble.
‘It’s, it’s okay. I have enough in my bank account.’
Having received this month’s settlement from Yeon Sanghoei, he currently had over 400 million.
Since he’d come this far with his friends’ help, he decided to spend generously.
Ding dong.
Then a message arrived.
It was Team Leader Jin Yun-ho from the Player Hunter Bureau.
# Hello, Mr. Jinhyeok. This is Jin Yun-ho. I’m informing you that the Hunter Bureau has decided on a new support plan for you.
‘Huh? A support plan?’
This was completely unexpected.
I’m not even affiliated with the Hunter Bureau, so why?
Thinking it would be various discounts or benefits, he scrolled down.
“What…?”
He stopped scrolling.
And had to rub his eyes.
Something completely unrealistic was written there.
The top floor of the Ronia building where the chairman’s office was located.
The VIP elevator opened and a group in white uniforms appeared.
“Who are you?”
Ronia’s security team blocked them.
Hosaka Rito’s face contorted.
“We’re already busy enough, who let them up!?”
“It’s been a while, Mr. Rito.”
A thin voice leaked out for a moment.
From among the group, Innovation Party member Sato Tsubasa revealed himself.
“We met a few years ago, right? I’d be hurt if you don’t remember. I gave you a good money-making source back then.”
Flustered Rito glanced around at others.
Fortunately, no one heard.
“Congressman Sato Tsubasa. I haven’t forgotten. What brings you here? As you can see, we’re very busy right now.”
“1 minute.”
“Pardon?”
“Please let me in for just 1 minute.”
“This is where Grandfather… I mean, where Ronia’s chairman was murdered. I can’t let just anyone in.”
“I’m not just anyone, am I? I’ve kept secrets well until now. I think what I’ve done for you is worth 1 minute.”
Hesitating Rito slowly stepped aside.
“Exactly 1 minute.”
“Thank you.”
Tsubasa, who had entered inside, looked around
the scene.
After a moment, Tsubasa took a deep breath with all her might.
Then, it began to flow in.
The various lingering traces that had remained at the scene.
