Only I Have Two Towers Episode 118
Iron Lord
The maximum altitude of a military helicopter: 7,000 meters.
Jinhyeok, who had jumped from there, spread his arms and legs wide.
The brilliant night view unfolding below.
Jinhyeok let out an exclamation of admiration.
His eyes were truly having a feast.
‘Easy peasy.’
Perhaps because he had experience jumping from even higher places.
Today felt much more relaxed.
He took out the Yodel Compass to check the direction and distance to Windsor Castle.
That castle beginning to come into view was Windsor.
He shifted his weight toward it.
There were two things to do after infiltrating Windsor Castle.
Find Buried’s sword hidden in the castle’s underground and rescue Queen Elisia.
Then go to the predetermined location to rendezvous with Olivia, and the operation would be complete.
Windsor Castle was beginning to become clearly visible.
Jinhyeok opened his mouth.
“Kancheo, deploy!”
“Deploying!”
Kancheo, the Yodel Ranger unit commander, whooshed past him to the side.
Scout Kancheo’s mission was simple.
Disable any detection devices that might exist before Jinhyeok landed.
‘Go Kancheo.’
He used stealth on the castle that had drawn closer.
Just in case he might be detected visually, he had to be cautious in advance.
After falling for quite a while like that.
A glinting light was visible from a corner of Windsor Castle.
It was scout Kancheo’s signal.
After deciding on the landing direction, he reduced his weight with Hermes’ Shoes.
His body instantly floated upward with a whoosh.
Thud!
Jinhyeok, who had quickly adapted to the corresponding weight, completed a perfect landing.
Clap clap clap clap clap clap.
Kancheo, who had been watching from the side, applauded like a seal.
“As expected of the commander! That was a magnificent landing! Five hundred points out of a hundred!”
Kancheo, standing in a dignified pose, pointed in one direction with his tiny finger.
“It’s an old castle that wouldn’t be strange if it collapsed at any moment, but the security is excellent. There’s everything from laser detectors to sirens that go off when weight is applied.”
Kancheo emptied his pockets.
Parts of various devices scattered down.
“I’ve removed all the key components, so they won’t work.”
“Good. Very excellent, Unit Commander Kancheo. What about the surveillance personnel?”
“There are tons of them. Just the armed guards alone number over two hundred.”
“Whoa.”
It was hard to consider this the usual deployment.
It seemed like the forces that Prince Widric had gathered from all directions, as Olivia had mentioned.
“Let’s go find the sword first.”
“Understood!”
He crouched against a corner wall and took out Windsor Castle’s floor plan.
A room that had to be reached by going far down from ground level.
It was likely a place that had probably never been discovered.
“Let’s go.”
The stealthed Kancheo and Jinhyeok walked side by side.
It wasn’t for nothing that this was a castle representing the United Kingdom.
A sight even larger and more magnificent than Conwy Castle.
Taking in the sight of Windsor Castle, he walked toward the location indicated by the floor plan.
“What on earth could be happening? Just today, over two hundred people entered the castle.”
“I don’t know. They don’t seem like ordinary people… Could it be related to why Her Majesty the Queen collapsed?”
“Whatever it is, I hope it ends quickly. There have been so many ominous incidents lately.”
He pressed against the wall and waited for people to pass by.
Not everyone in Windsor Castle was Widric’s person.
Most were those who hadn’t yet grasped the reality of the situation.
Even if an emergency occurred, it seemed he’d have to be selective about who to deal with.
After walking for quite a while again, he arrived at the marked point.
“Hmm.”
Jinhyeok rubbed his chin.
“It’s a fountain.”
“It’s a fountain.”
“It’s full of water.”
“It’s full.”
What the floor plan indicated was the main fountain located inside Windsor Castle.
After quickly looking around, he quietly submerged his body into the fountain.
In the old days, he would have come up in less than a minute.
But with the rise in stats, his cardiopulmonary endurance had dramatically increased, making it possible to dive for quite a long time.
After gurgling and going inside for a moment, the same pattern he had seen earlier was carved into the fountain’s bottom.
Several small protrusions sticking out between the patterns.
He matched them in the order shown in the floor plan.
Creak creak creak.
‘Ooh.’
With slight vibration, the fountain’s bottom began to move.
He quickly manifested Dark.
It would be troublesome if all the fountain water got sucked into the revealed space.
When he explained with hand gestures, Dark immediately understood and surrounded the area with ice.
With perfect timing, the bottom opened, and underground stairs that had been hidden for ages revealed themselves.
The fountain water, trapped in ice, flowed down along the stairs.
“Whew.”
Jinhyeok, breathing deeply, gave a thumbs up to the soaking wet Dark.
To suddenly manifest him into water like that.
From the perspective of someone who had been resting peacefully, it was no different from being doused with water.
Dark shrugged his shoulders at his dripping clothes.
“I kept the cold to a minimum, but the fountain will freeze solid before long.”
“I’ll come out before then. Otherwise, they’d notice quickly even if it’s night.”
“Call me again if you need me.”
Dark, who waved lightly, canceled his manifestation.
Always such a cool friend.
“Let’s go, Kancheo!”
“Ready for deployment!”
He took out a luminous stone from his inventory.
It was a flashlight substitute.
Illuminating the dark stairs, he began to carefully descend.
Since it’s a place that’s been hidden since ancient times, there might be strict guardians.
He didn’t neglect his presence detection either.
“I feel like Indiana Jones.”
“Jones? I know that too! Isn’t it lotion?”
“That’s Johnson’s Baby Lotion. Indiana Jones is an adventurer.”
“Are we adventurers too?”
“That’s right. We’re the first to set foot in a place no one has ever entered, and most importantly, we’re going to find treasure.”
“Ooooh! I’m excited!”
An expectant smile also formed on Jinhyeok’s lips.
Adventure and treasure.
How could his heart not race?
‘This is going smoothly.’
After descending all the stairs, several branching paths appeared.
Indeed, this was a hidden ancient place.
It would be disappointing if there weren’t mazes or traps.
Of course, since they were on a mission, he didn’t bother wandering through mazes.
Unlike movie protagonists who suffer hardships, Jinhyeok and Kancheo found their way instantly with the Yodel Compass.
“This is boring.”
“We’re excellent adventurers.”
It was all thanks to the Yodel Compass, but anyway.
How long had they walked following the compass?
The path ended and a small door appeared directly ahead.
Jinhyeok opened the door without hesitation.
“Oh!”
He let out a quiet exclamation.
The Ancient Stone Chamber was perfectly preserved, untouched by human hands.
And there it was, placed against the far wall of the chamber.
The sword of Berid Winsor from the Black Knight Order.
Ding!
As soon as he took a step forward, a cheerful alarm sound rang out.
[You have discovered the reward for the Epic-grade Emergency Quest ‘Save the Child of Windsor’!]
A faint hologram spread around them.
What appeared was the man they saw earlier, Aman Winzer, the beginning of the Kingdom of England and Berid’s disciple.
He looked much more aged than when they saw him before, suggesting quite a long time had passed since Berid left.
Aman, who had been looking at the sword for a long time, moved toward the wall.
“Someday, one with the proper qualifications will come.”
Aman in the hologram turned his head and gazed in Jinhyeok’s direction.
“For you who possess the qualifications, I preserve this sword in this place.”
With those final words, the hologram scattered, and Seira, who had been waiting for Jinhyeok’s call, manifested.
Seira examined the sword hanging on the wall.
“It’s certain. This is Berid’s sword.”
A connection point between two worlds that seemed completely separate and unrelated.
He had seen this several times before, but this time he felt an inexplicable surge of emotion.
This time it wasn’t just a simple connection.
This was the Kingdom of England itself.
To think that the person who enabled that dynasty to begin was a member of the Black Knight Order.
‘Interesting. Truly.’
Jinhyeok smiled.
The worldview that kept expanding after his awakening.
His heart raced at the fact that what was known to the world wasn’t everything.
How many more things would he see and hear in the future?
“Master.”
After a brief silence filled with their respective contemplations.
Seira looked at Jinhyeok and smiled.
He could understand the meaning without asking.
That sword belongs to the master, so go ahead and take it.
Jinhyeok nodded and approached, reaching out his hand.
Ding!
[You have obtained ‘Perrakan’, the sword of Black Knight Order’s Berid Winsor!]
# Level Restriction: 75.
# Grade: Epic.
# Attack Power: 300.
# Unique Skill: Iron Brand.
## Those who lose their lives to Perrakan will be marked with an iron brand.
## You can control weapons wielded by those marked with the brand.
## Only weapons made of iron can be controlled.
## The brand disappears when combat ends.
‘Holy.’
Considering it’s level 75 restricted, the attack power itself isn’t particularly high.
But the unique skill is incredible.
To be able to control the weapons of enemies you’ve killed.
It was a structure where your power increased as battles grew longer and you cut down more enemies.
Seira standing beside him quietly gazed at the silver sword.
“At the start of battle, Berid was an unremarkable knight. But by the time combat was ending, everyone had no choice but to look at Berid.”
It was still vivid even now.
The thousands of weapons that densely surrounded Berid.
“Among enemies, there was a saying. To kill Berid, the Iron Lord, you had to kill him when battle began. If you missed that moment, he became an existence that could never be killed.”
Iron Lord.
Just hearing it made his heart race with that title.
‘So damn cool.’
With a satisfied smile, he quickly registered Perrakan in his weapon collecting.
[Weapon Collecting 3/7]
# Ganjangmakya.
# Salamanca.
# Perrakan.
The spot where the returned Slither’s Pillar used to be.
Perrakan entered that position, and from now on, the Iron Brand effect would activate no matter what weapon he used to cut down enemies.
‘I want to try it out soon.’
He was already starting to look forward to the next tower climb.
But still, it remained a mystery.
The British royal family only started using the Windsor surname less than 200 years ago.
Even though the first king was Aman Winzer, why did the surname disappear in between?
Jinhyeok, who had been thinking about this and that for a moment, shrugged his shoulders.
Right now he was on a mission.
There were more important things, so he decided to ask Sofia or someone from the royal family about this later.
“No treasure…”
When had she manifested?
The greedy Momo walked over with drooping shoulders.
“It’s okay. We got a sword.”
Unlike Momo, Jinhyeok wasn’t disappointed at all.
For Jinhyeok, who wielded a sword, there was no greater treasure than this.
It was indeed a weapon that would turn the world upside down if revealed to the public.
“Uuugh.”
After stretching lazily, he rolled his neck from side to side.
He had obtained Berid Winsor’s sword, which was his first objective for visiting.
Thanks to that, his mind was in a very peaceful state.
Now there was only one thing left.
“Let’s go.”
Jinhyeok smiled and began walking.
The rescue of Her Majesty the Queen was about to begin.
