Slight correction, Eun-Myung's player name is Acycle, not Ayeon.
“I really can’t get used to how creepy this place is! Ugh!”Inside the Eternal Abyss Manor, which was currently vacant, a man in a funny two-colored jester-like costume was walking around and rubbing his arms to get rid of the unpleasant chills. He continuously complained while sneaking glances at his two companions.The two were walking together; One was a relatively tall man with short black hair, a warm expression and uniquely and differently-colored eyes. The other was a woman shorter than him, she had long silver hair that glistened amidst the darkness of the manor. She had two crimson eyes and was wearing a one-piece jet black dress that added more to her exceptional beauty.Contrary to her husband, however, the woman had a chillingly cold face and an almost never-changing expre
“This place is grim…”Seo Ae-Ri stuck close to her companions and could not help remark. Despite Runar’s attempt to be a welcome host, the Lunar Clan’s camp was dominated by a gloom atmosphere, filled with desperation. Most tribe members were lurking in their homes or in the shadows, their eyes hollow and devoid of will; It was clear they had given up on making their lives better.It was not to say there were no lively ones, the children, especially. However, their fleeting joy was only thanks to their innocent ignorance and the inability to comprehend the misery that lies outside the camp’s walls.“Yes, I can’t help but agree.”Fairti studied the Lunar clan for
The Elven girl stared but did not say anything, forcing Leiu to speak instead.“You’re… Selphie, right?”Unlike their last albeit brief meeting, Selphie had a slightly brighter expression. She looked down at the Dark Knight and, after much contemplation, she simply asked,“What are you doing here?”“...”A bit surprised by such an unwarranted question, Leiu dumbly looked back at Selphie, not knowing how to reply exactly.Fortunately, their conversation was interrupted by another arrival. Like the elven girl, this one, too, wore a conspicuous grey robe, but she had
Several times already, the group of beastmen, elves, and humans, was stopped by the hostile underground monsters. As they headed North, more and more of the monsters appeared, most mutated due to the corrupted Mana, the result of the curse afflicted by the fairies.At some point, Leiu had to step in and lend a hand as Runar and his small guiding crew were able to safely dispose of all enemies. While the Lunar Clan members were decently strong, they were only Lv70 or less and it was only their cooperation that helped them kill the monsters with moderate ease, at least until the stronger ones had surfaced.The Dark Knight switched places with the vanguard and fought the relatively large monsters along with the grumpy Seo Ae-Ri. Although they did not get along with each other, Leiu found out that battling alongside the assassin was, alb
Over the course of the next two days, the mounted armored lizards appeared again and again, only to be eradicated by one or two strikes from the Dark Knight.It had become the norm to expect an ambush from those unknown people. Selphie and the Sage, who lagged behind, decided to tag along and risk traveling with Leiu rather than facing the clearly hostile residents of this region.As much as the Sage hated Leiu’s presence, she could not deny his efficiency in disposing of any and all threats, making it much safer to be close to him.“What are they trying to do, I wonder…”Fairti had a serious expression as he looked at the mass of flesh and gore splattered on the ground. By now, they must know that
Thanks to the Sage’s timely intervention, Fairti and Seo Ae-Ri the unexpected attack from the unseen magic. The Dark Knight, however, did not need any help as his body reacted automatically and in quite a fierce manner. The Darkness that shot from his body made everyone, including his companions, to back away due to the sinister aura they momentarily experienced.Selphie and her guardian were looking at the sky, the green protective light spread from their bodies and soon clashed with some sort of an invisible barrier that encompassed the town and the region around it.“It’s Soul Magic.”The Sage motioned for them to back away, which they did, then she walked to Leiu and spoke with a cold and annoyed voice, as is her wont.
“Please… Please spare some food.”“I beg you… a few bronzes to feed my children!”Everywhere they went, beggars would barr their way and plead for money or food while kneeling. Some were even bold enough to grab onto their feet or ankles only to be shoved away.The next stop for Leiu and the company was this poor-stricken village. The buildings were in a good condition, and sure enough, there were a couple of wealthy traders and merchants peddling their wares.Actually, at the center of the village, there stood a spiral-shaped estate, jet black in color and protected by high-fences and armed horsemen.Yet, for all the village had to offer, the pla
Unlike his friend Fairti or Selphie and her guardian, Leiu had nothing particular to do in this village, ironically named ‘Happy Village’.To begin with, the settlement wasn’t big, nor was it welcoming or filled with enjoyable places. Barring the restricted manor, the rest was either poor stalls, a shabby market, or run-down taverns. Therefore, Leiu wasted his time aimlessly wandering the streets, paying no attention to the persistent beggars nor Seo Ae-Ri.“I think this is one of the places not visited by players yet.”Ferywonia is a desolate territory, filled with criminals and bandits. It's a massive region dominated by lawless acts and a handful of rewarding yet difficult to find quests. Basically, it was a place unwanted by inhabitants of this world and
