Hunter Academy’s Greatest War God

Episode 184

Ultra was fully prepared for battle, even wearing a suit.

‘…Hoo. Sardonyx has favors with Korean students?’

However, instead of fighting, Shin Yuseong and Sardonyx are hugging each other. The desperate Sardonyx Raid was going in a strange direction as two 7th-class hunters retired.

‘This is a good sign.’

The flow of attack has changed.

Ultra wasn’t the only one standing by.

‘…Even if it only drags on time, it’s profitable!’

Shoichi drew back his sword and stepped back. He was willing to die to attack Sardonyx, but there was no reason to refuse since he could take the time without any sacrifice.

‘…This?’

Adela was nervous that Sardonyx might attack Shin Meteor, but Eliza grabbed Adela by the shoulder and gave the order.

“Adela. Please step back for now.”

Although he doesn’t show any hostility now, the ferocious mana emitted by Sardonyx, which has intensified his emotions, was enough to sting the skin of even 6th-level hunters.

‘…To the extent that heat can be transmitted with mana alone. Is 7th grade like this?’

Eliza grabbed Adela and stepped back nervously.

The core of this Sardonyx attack is.

The guardian deity of the Yalu River. Duraþrór,

one of the deer that grew up eating the leaves of the Unsa World Tree.

‘Unless Rosa-sama is present, if Sardonyx emits even a breath, in the worst case, I will be prepared for annihilation.’

So, despite not knowing what the situation was, Eliza thought it was right to give Shin Yoo-seong a chance now.

“Taru… Did you come to visit me yourself?”

Sardonyx opened his mouth.

Instead of blowing fire from her mouth, she was whispering to Shin Yoo-seong in a sweet voice.

‘I don’t have such memories.’

Shin Yoo-seong had no memories of Taru. It was unknown whether Shin Yuseong was the reincarnation of Taru, who transcended time and space, just like Sardonyx’s wind. Now that nothing can be proven. Shin Yoo-seong and Taru are just people who look alike.

– Only you can save Sardonyx.

However, Crupeos was forcing Shin Yoo-seong to act as Taru’s substitute.

– Sardonyx. As long as she opens her eyes My voice, the incarnation, will soon disappear.

– So, I ask you one last thing. Please save her.

The crossroads of choice given to Shin Yoo-seong.

The key to this attack was neither the retired 7th level hunters nor the 6th level hunters who claimed to be mentors. None other than Shin Yoo-seong was holding it.

Sardonyx asked back at the serious expression of Shin Yoo-seong.

“…Taru?”

She was waiting for Shin Yoo-seong’s answer as a partner, not a noble dragon.

“huh.”

Shin Yoo-seong’s short answer was brought out after a moment’s thought. Shin Yooseong thought.

What made the dragon special during its long lifespan?

Yooseong Shin observed the life of Lepina, where Sardonyx lived, through the recollections of Crupeos.

He didn’t know about Taru’s life, but at least he knew about Lepina’s life.

So, I was able to infer what kind of answer Lepina, not Sardonyx, was waiting for.

“…Lefina.”

A name known only to those who watched Sardonyx’s pastime.

joy and sorrow.

Sardonyx’s dazed face contorted in an instant.

Hwaaak!

As mana spurted out around Sardonyx, her image was realized. The surroundings turned into a forest and Sardonyx transformed into the form of Lepina who had been playing. In this world of images, no one except Shin Yuseong and Sardonyx existed. In addition, the season is spring when the flowers fall from the trees. It was Tarrou’s favorite season.

“Taru. Taru…”

Proof that Sardonyx didn’t forget even the smallest things when it came to Tarru. Sardonyx cried out in the lively spring forest.

“…Sorry, I’m late, right? I just kept going… I found it. Because we promised.”

what time any space. Sardonyx has been fighting alone to keep the harsh oath to find out in any form.

Shin Yooseong thought.

What did Sardonyx want to hear from Taru so much?

“I miss you. very.”

“huh. me too. Me too. Really…”

Sardonyx’s words could not continue. The dignified dragon was no different from a human after all in this respect.

After all, they miss someone just like humans. suffer from loneliness

Without being healed or comforted, he endures a time close to eternity alone.

Shin Yooseong thought.

Maybe Taru is more poison than benefit to Sardonyx?

Could it be that the warmth that Taru felt made Sardonyx, who did not know the cold, tremble in the eternal winter?

‘…That was a stupid idea.’

However, Shin Yoo-seong quickly put aside his thoughts.

[…how would you like to come with me?]

The day when the sky was pierced with rain. Yooseong Shin remembered the warm hand that Master had extended.

Even if the process and results were different from Sardonyx, it was something he had already experienced. Because it is impossible to forget the warmth given in the cold.

Sardonyx’s reason for finding an opponent in the midst of a slim probability like a needle in the sand would not be grandiose in the end.

“Lefina. for not giving up for keeping your promise …thank you.”

Krupeos was right.

Even if it’s not Taroo. Yooseong Shin was able to save Sardonyx. Because the opponent was not a 7th grade boss called a disaster, but a pitiful girl who searched for her first love for eternity.

“…Taru.”

Sardonyx laughed with an unknown expression and kissed Shin Yooseong.

Bright sunlight pouring down according to Sardonyx’s emotions. Beautifully fluttering petals.

Sardonyx smiled at Shin Yoo-seong, who faced him.

“Did you forget everything during your reincarnation? are you okay. Even if Tarrou forgets. Because I remember everything.”

In the world of images created by Sardonyx, time was meaningless. Here, the eternity of reality could become a moment, and the eternity of images could become a moment of reality.

* * *

A day in the image of Sardonyx. Two days. After about a week, Yooseong Shin could hear Krupeos’ voice on the grass where the breeze was blowing.

– You are a kind person.

at the same time. Sardonyx looked up at Shin Yuseong and smiled.

“…thank you. Taru.”

A soft yet serious voice.

“You are very kind.”

Sardonyx said something meaningful as if he knew everything, then kissed Shin Yooseong and gently breathed into him.

‘…This.’

That’s Sardonyx’s mana.

it was life it was all about her

[You have obtained the piece of Sardonyx-(Piece of Sardonyx).]

[Krupeos’ covenant has been fulfilled. Fragments are unlocked.]

[You have obtained all fragments except the fragment of Ignis, the incarnation.]

[Mana increases and physical abilities are enhanced in proportion to the power contained in Sardonyx fragments.]

‘…All fragments second?’

Sardonyx is the master of incarnation.

If it was her piece, it wouldn’t be strange if he absorbed all the fragments. But why now?

Shin Yoo-seong looked into Sardonyx’s eyes at the sudden situation.

“You knew.”

“huh.”

Sardonyx smiled at the sight of Shin Yuseong.

“Even if you lose your memory. can you comfort me After all, Tarrou is kind.”

Sardonyx’s body shook in the wind blowing over the fields.

“…I can tell. It must have been because of my greed that I was summoned here.”

Sardonyx achieved his goal of finding Taru. They also kept the oath linked to fate.

And at that moment, Sardonyx felt that his connection with this world had disappeared.

“If it is my mana. I will be able to hold out for about a year by forcing myself, but…”

Sardonyx was smiling with a happy face.

“I wanted to entrust my strength to the kind you. Oh, of course, I couldn’t get back the pieces of Ignis…”

Maybe it’s because of Rebellion.

Shin Yuseong looked at Sardonyx with a calm face.

“Sardonyx. you made a covenant Don’t you regret it?”

At the sudden question of Shin Yoo-seong, Sardonyx smiled with a foolish face.

“huh. Never…”

Sardonyx’s body slowly transforms into particles from the fingertips in the bright light and disperses.

“Never regret it.”

Sardonyx smiles as he affirms. Let’s laugh together with Shin Yoosung. A red light penetrated the back of Shin Yoo-seong’s hand.

‘…Right.’

Is this also the path of a strong hunter that Master said? Is it an attack by hunters?

Just as each person has different goals.

Maybe there is no right answer.

What really matters.

‘What remains. …is it.’

What Taru left to Sardonyx.

What Sardonyx left to Shin Yuseong.

And what his teacher, King Kwon, left to Shin Yoo-seong. Siwoo Lee. Sumire. Eunah Kim. Amy. What he gave and what he received from his precious party members.

Saaaaa- Shin

Yooseong raised his head at the pleasant feeling of the wind. The world without Sardonyx was slowly crumbling.

It was the end for those who left, but it was a new beginning for those left behind.
