Disciple of The Three Kings [EN]: Chapter 354

Yi Rown was feeling at ease for the first time in a long while.

The time spent in the Blood King’s Castle.

“Have you arrived?”

Those who always greeted him warmly.

Their excessive politeness was always the same, but the feeling that they were genuinely welcoming him wasn’t unpleasant.

“May I request a spar?”

It would take time to find the Unknown.

Hase Min was doing his best to find them, but it would still take some time.

In the meantime, Yi Rown was spending time in the Blood King’s Castle instead of going to Earth.

Numerous changes had occurred.

“Squeak.”

The Black Orcs were also mingling with the warriors of the Blood King’s Castle.

Looking at the composition of the Blood King’s Castle, it was quite interesting.

First, the warriors of the Blood King’s Castle, who formed the foundation.

Bondenno’s world, and the mages of Einheart.

The Black Orcs.

Even the players who had lost their way and the residents of Earth.

“Shall we grab a bite to eat together?”

In the developed Blood King’s Castle, they were all mingling together without any discrimination.

They were all qualified to freely travel to and from Earth at any time.

However, no one was particularly leaving the Blood King’s Castle.

“Looks good, doesn’t it?”

Bondenno.

He approached and spoke.

The bond from when he was Dank’s Yi Rown, before he was the Yi Rown of the Galaxy.

One of the few beings he could call a friend.

A trustworthy person who had continued from his past life, which was filled with betrayers.

“You made it.”

“……”

“It’s the world everyone wanted.”

When the gate to the world opened, those in power could have been different.

They could have felt both possibility and threat from that gate, and created another form of greed.

However, the majority of ordinary people were different.

“A new world, new people.”

They.

“A world where they live together in harmony.”

Curiosity and goodwill.

However, the world caused conflict, and those in power couldn’t hide their greed.

That was how the current Earth was born.

“The outside too.”

Bondenno said.

“Will soon be like this.”

A voice full of conviction.

“Because you’re there.”

“Your expectations are too high.”

“When I met you again, I was worried. Because you were nothing like the you I knew.”

Bondenno chuckled and brought the coffee to his lips.

“But I soon realized. That you are you.”

The two of them quietly looked down at the Blood King’s Castle as they talked.

“If you stay the same, without changing, then the world will surely change. If it’s you, the you I know, you’ll do it.”

“The me you know…”

Yi Rown stretched out his palm and clenched it.

“I am…”

He wanted to say something, but the words wouldn’t come to mind.

“You are Yi Rown.”

Bondenno’s words sounded like a spell.

“Oh, right. I have a favor to ask.”

“A favor?”

“Our Armo was originally a member of a magic society called Haribat.”

Yi Rown showed interest in the story he was hearing for the first time.

It was something that Bondenno, who was now the leader of Armo, could say, and it was something that everyone in Armo could bring up because they fully trusted Yi Rown.

“Haribat, which was made up of three organizations, managed and supervised ancient magic, and I want to find out if they still exist.”

Bondenno’s meaning was simple.

“You’re saying you’re going to Einheart?”

“Yeah.”

Bondenno said.

“Originally, it would have been impossible. We, who had the gate opened here, were barely able to survive, let alone cross over into Einheart’s territory.”

“But the situation has changed.”

“Because you’re here.”

Yi Rown, who could exert immense influence within the Silver Territory, Asia.

Moreover, the lawless zone, which was the gateway to Einheart’s territory, could be said to be virtually in Yi Rown’s grasp.

“The political situation in Einheart is chaotic right now.”

Yi Rown said.

“It’ll be dangerous.”

“Would it be more dangerous than when you weren’t around?”

“……”

“And now…”

Smirk.

Bondenno rolled up one sleeve.

Tattoos densely covering his arm.

It was a magic circle that didn’t suit his rather innocent-looking face.

“I’m quite strong too, you know.”

“Hmm.”

“You also needed someone to properly grasp the situation over there. You’re worried about Baek Cheong too, aren’t you?”

The priestess of Jongnam who disappeared in Einheart.

And.

‘Phile.’

Their traces were still being tracked, but there was still no news.

‘I think I have a rough idea.’

But he wasn’t sure.

“Do it then.”

In the end, Yi Rown gave his permission.

“I’ll tell Hase Min. Leave as soon as you’re ready.”

“Okay. Thanks.”

“Hase Min isn’t exactly a pushover either, it seems.”

“……?”

A shadow flickered behind Yi Rown.

“Speak of the devil. There’s a saying like that in Korea.”

“Will I come next time?”

Yi Rown shook his head at Hase Min’s words as he emerged from the shadow.

“What’s the matter?”

He had already guessed.

Everyone wouldn’t want to disturb his rest, but if they did, it meant.

“The Unknown. We’ve found them.”

It meant that they had achieved their goal.

* * *

-We’ve found the Unknown.

The Unknown were found faster than expected.

He thought it would be difficult to find them, as they would have been hiding with all their might to avoid being pursued by the Assembly.

But the reason they were found so quickly was.

-To be precise…

Hase Min’s words.

-They came looking for us.

It wasn’t that they had found the Unknown, but that the Unknown had come looking for Hase Min, for the Galaxy.

Yi Rown left the Blood King’s Castle and headed to the Galaxy’s guild house.

He boarded a prepared vehicle and traveled for a long time, arriving at a villa in Namyangju.

“It’s quite well-equipped.”

A villa disguised using a welcoming formation and the energy of nature.

Moreover, the magic circles layered on top of it were…

“Was it Bondenno?”

“Yes. Bondenno helped.”

Bondenno’s skills as a master of magic circles were clearly evident.

A safe house that only a Council-level being could find if they were determined to hide.

If they were to break through, it seemed like they would have to be prepared for quite a few sacrifices.

“Let’s go in.”

Hase Min and Jung Chi-soo took the lead.

They stepped on the ground in a set order, spread their energy, and opened the door.

“Are they here?”

The Unknown, who had come looking for the Galaxy, were here.

“We haven’t decided on the treatment of the Unknown yet. If we were seen with them now, the relationship between the Galaxy and the Unknown would be questioned.”

“That wouldn’t be so bad either.”

A player who wins against a warrior.

The perspective would change depending on how you looked at it.

But.

“You did well.”

It was better not to reveal it now.

Especially since they were related to the Soul Spirit.

Squeak.

They unlocked all the locks and finally opened the door.

The person sitting there hurriedly got up.

A person wearing a rabbit mask.

Especially the strange energy they felt from them.

“The Unknown, I presume.”

It was definitely the Unknown.

“Are you planning to keep wearing that mask?”

If they had come looking for the Galaxy, there must be a reason.

“If you want to keep your identity hidden…”

Swish.

Before Yi Rown could finish speaking, the rabbit mask was removed.

“……”

Clenched lips.

A clear gaze looking at Yi Rown.

She was someone that Yi Rown could say was quite beautiful.

Also, a face that Yi Rown had seen before.

“Choi Ye-seul.”

Choi Ye-seul, a player-turned-idol who was gaining fame.

Also, she was.

“We meet again.”

She was supposed to be by Oh Jin-kyung’s side.

That she was actually one of the Unknown.

“Does Oh Jin-kyung know too?”

Yi Rown naturally approached the sofa and lay down, speaking.

“She wouldn’t know.”

Oh Jin-kyung, who had saved Choi Ye-seul from Lee Tae-kyum.

After that, the two had become quite close.

Of course, it was hard to say what kind of relationship it was, but it was a fact that anyone could see that Oh Jin-kyung cared about Choi Ye-seul and Choi Ye-seul followed Oh Jin-kyung.

“If Oh Jin-kyung finds out later…”

Well.

“I guess it doesn’t matter.”

The Unknown who had fought against Oh Jin-kyung and Lee Tae-kyum when they attacked Haenam.

If Choi Ye-seul was one of the Unknown, it meant that she had been extracting information from Oh Jin-kyung and helping the Unknown, but Oh Jin-kyung wouldn’t care much about that fact.

“When this is over…, I plan to tell her myself.”

“Well, do as you see fit.”

Yi Rown looked at Choi Ye-seul.

The Unknown who even fought against the warriors of the Hyun Realm.

Flinch.

She was trembling at Yi Rown’s gaze.

In his languid eyes, there was an unfathomable abyss.

“Where are the others?”

The Unknown were not just one person.

There were many.

At Yi Rown’s question about the others besides Choi Ye-seul, Choi Ye-seul’s face darkened.

“I see why you came.”

Yi Rown changed his posture and clasped his hands together.

“Were they captured?”

Choi Ye-seul carefully nodded her head.

* * *

It was already known that the Unknown were being pursued by the Assembly.

A player who defeats a warrior.

To the Assembly, which was a union of warriors and could be said to be everything in the Silver Territory, the Unknown were a threat.

So it wasn’t strange that they were captured.

“We’ve kept an eye on major sects such as the Gaebang [Beggar Clan] and Shaolin.”

Hase Min said as if making an excuse at Yi Rown’s gaze.

If the Unknown were captured, he thought that Hase Min should have known about it.

“There was no major reaction from that side.”

Now, Yi Rown’s eyes were back on Choi Ye-seul.

“It wasn’t Hwasan or Shaolin. We already know their martial arts well enough.”

“Perhaps…”

Hase Min continued.

“I think it’s a third party.”

It meant that the Unknown were kidnapped from an unexpected place.

“Is it certain that they were kidnapped?”

Not eliminated, but kidnapped.

“Yes.”

Choi Ye-seul said with certainty.

“We can confirm each other’s survival.”

Yi Rown nodded.

This might be one of the secrets of their power.

-The Soul Spirit.

Because he was involved.

“How long ago were they kidnapped?”

“About a week ago.”

It was the day after the Soul Spirit’s identity was revealed.

“This must be related too.”

Something must have happened to them when the Soul Spirit collapsed.

“So you want me to save them?”

At Yi Rown’s words, Choi Ye-seul bit her lip.

But her answer was as good as decided.

“Yes. Please help us.”

“Why?”

Yi Rown said, looking into Choi Ye-seul’s eyes.

“Why should I do that?”

“There are many reasons.”

“Many?”

Yi Rown let out a hollow laugh at her overly confident attitude.

“Tell me. What are so many reasons?”

“You gave us a chance to choose.”

Yi Rown had said when he met the Unknown.

-Next time, you’ll have to choose for sure.

That meant.

“It also meant that you were willing to accept us.”

Yi Rown nodded.

“Doesn’t the Blood Cult want to embrace players?”

“……”

“Also…”

Choi Ye-seul said.

“Ho Wang. Lee San-hoo…, he’s also one of us, the Unknown. You could say he’s our leader. He said.”

She spoke to Yi Rown.

“If you need help, go find him.”

“Well, those are some convincing reasons.”

But.

“Is there more?”

It seemed like there was a reason she wasn’t saying something.

Yi Rown asked about it.

“Among those who were kidnapped this time, among our comrades…”

Choi Ye-seul carefully opened her mouth as if she was telling a secret that she should never tell.

“Kim Tae-kyun is there.”
