The 31st Piece Turns the Tables

Chapter 348

Episode 348:

A foul-smelling toad grabbed the spear and ran after Snowfall.

“What’s so urgent?”

“It happens. So what I’m going to help you do is execute someone?”

“... Yes. “He’s been messing with my swamp all along, and now he’s going to be judged.”

“Aha....”

“This way! “Hurry, follow me.”

A choice occurred to Kang Seol.

[This toad, who introduced himself as a swamp keeper, is filled with an unknown sense of mission. He says he needs your help to do his duty. However, since you can’t believe everything, I’d like to ask a question.]

1. Who is the guy who has been disturbing the swamp?

2. Why do you need my help with the execution?

3. Does it really have to be executed?

4. Couldn’t you have solved it on your own?

...

Kangseol chuckled as he saw a window with options that brought up a lot of questions.

And he didn’t even ask any questions.

‘I know roughly how it goes. Anyway, I went too far back.’

If he followed the options, he might not get the results he expected, so he kept his mouth shut instead of asking the questions he should have asked.

Snowfall and the swamp keeper ran toward their destination without saying a word.

‘Fortunately, it’s located close to the gateway.’

If it had been in a location directly opposite to the next gateway, it would have been an unconditional failure.

Even at this moment, danger was getting closer by the minute.

“Haa... haa....”

Snowfall and Toad were so fast that they were out of breath after reaching their destination.

“It’s him.”

Kang Seol took a deep breath and looked at someone who had lost consciousness and was trapped.

It was a guy with a crocodile head.

My mouth was tied tightly with rope so I couldn’t say anything.

Kang Seol smiled.

“Now, if you need a seal, help the swamp keeper. “The arrogant man who dared to defy authority by killing that guy...”

A choice came to mind.

[It looks like the swamp keeper wants to kill Ija. You have to make a choice. But before that, there is something to check.]

1. What mistake did this guy make?

2. Why should I kill this guy?

3. Shouldn’t we think again about killing?

4. Couldn’t I receive the seal in exchange for another favor?

...

Snowfall did what she had to do without asking any questions. It was a waste of time to even argue right now.

Suddenly...

“Yeah... hm? “What have you done!”

Snowfall instantly removed all the ropes that were tying the crocodile’s body.

“What are you doing! Why don’t you follow what I say? “Are you not planning on receiving the seal?”

Just then the crocodile opened its eyes.

“Hey... it happened again. “Is this why swamps are fun?”

“....”

The crocodile stretched out and offered to shake Kang Seol’s hand.

“Nice to meet you. I’m a swamp keeper. “I’m repairing the swamp at the request of a sleepyhead.”

Kang Seol nodded and shook hands.

“I am snowfall. “What is that guy?”

“Ugh... don’t be fooled! “I’m the swamp keeper!”

He asked back at the toad that was hesitatingly retreating.

“Then why do you need my help? “The garden maintenance is the responsibility of the sleepyhead.”

“That’s...”

That’s why I didn’t ask any questions on the way. It was a question that would immediately leave one speechless, so if the question had been asked, the toad would have chosen to run away.

“It’s obvious, if you kill the swamp keeper, you will be cursed by the sleepyhead. “If I kill the swamp keeper for you, you will be able to avoid that curse.”

“... How much do you know?”

Kang Seol knew from the beginning that the swamp keeper was a crocodile.

It was unclear exactly what it looked like or its characteristics, but at least it wasn’t a toad. Because nothing will change overnight.

Moreover, the content of the request made to Kang Seol was very suspicious.

“Hey... if you do this, I’ll execute you too!”

Pot-!

Whirlick...

Kangseol turned back and stretched out his feet.

Paaaaang-!

The moment Snowfall’s feet touched the toad’s body, a scream came out of the toad’s mouth.

“Frog-!”

Although I was a little embarrassed by the toad’s scream, I blocked the attack anyway.

Sigh...

The swamp keeper said this as he put a pair of small glasses, one of which had a broken egg, on his eyes.

“Send it to me so I can look at it just once.”

“... Didn’t you almost die?”

“Who dies? It’s all a joke, a joke. yes?”

When the swamp keeper greeted the toad with a simple smile, he trembled and disappeared into the swamp.

“Why did you send it? “I wasn’t threatening you, was I?”

“The guys who live in the swamp are lazy, so they have to be active like that. Otherwise, the swamp will rot.”

“....”

“Did you just think that was ridiculous?”

“... I know very well.”

“Hehe... Those who live in the swamp are cute if you look closely. It’s just a little rough. Anyway... thank you for saving me, human! “You are the second person who saved me.”

Snowfall once saved a swamp keeper a long time ago.

As evidence, there was nothing wrong with the body. Instead, I thought I should avoid using fire.

This was due to the characteristics of steel silver grass.

Most of it was melted by the dragon’s flames, but there was silver grass that became even stronger. In order to pass through the gate with my gigantic body, I had to break all the silver grass, but as it became stronger, I became irritated.

Well, it’s just one more process added, so you’ll have to endure this and get over it.

Whirring...

patter-patter-!

As I swung my claws, all the steel silver grass fell down like a piece of corn.

Azanic moved into the forest, sniffling due to the still remaining poison.

They aren’t even here.

Ajanik suddenly became irritated by that fact, took a deep breath, and spit out flames once again.

Kwaaaaaaaaaa!

The forest burned in the shape of the fire.

As he gazed at the traces of destruction with satisfied eyes, someone shouted from afar.

“dragon! What are you doing!”

He was a forest keeper.

“I’m looking for humans and trolls. If you tell me the truth, I’ll spare your life.”

“This is Sleepyhead’s garden! “Do you know what you just did?”

“Sleepyhead? I don’t know that guy. “I don’t want to be interested in inferior creatures.”

“... Don’t you know Sleepyhead? “Then you won’t be able to meet me?”

“what?”

“Don’t tell me if you don’t know!”

Food!

A forest keeper flying in an instant.

Azanik didn’t think he would find anything if he caught him and asked him questions, so he flew to the next gate. Anyway, the scent of a human in the group was getting closer.

I thought maybe I would catch up once I passed this hurdle.

The gateway is once again blocked with steel silver grass.

“You’re doing something stupid!”

In a fit of frustration, he lashed out with his claws, knocking down all the steel silver grass in the passage.

Fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu!

Of course, it was natural that poison bloomed in the process.

The fugitives who kept doing useless things were both pathetic and annoying.

Anyway, it’s all useless.

Patter...

After shaking himself off, his eyes turned to the next gate.

there is.

There is a guy.

The rat that opened the door to the ruins and let Tancrid and his group escape.

“...there it is.”

Huuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu...

As he was about to breathe out the fire, the entire gate he was in was filled with the steel silver grass from earlier. Ajanik, concerned that the fire would become more solid as it touched it, would become a nuisance, so he fired the fire into the swamp.

Kwaaaaaaaaaa!

“Well, I got lucky.”

Just as Azanik was about to fly to the gate, someone spoke to him.

“What kind of grudge is there in the swamp? “Are you doing this because of the seal?”

“Seal? “What are you talking about?”

As the swamp keeper fearlessly protested against the dragon, Azanic asked back.

“I need a seal to meet Sleepyhead. “Isn’t that why you came?”

“Not required. “I have no intention of meeting you.”

“... I guess I’m going in vain.”

“... what?”

“No, nothing. “Do whatever you want.”

The swamp keeper quickly disappeared.

Azanik was momentarily angry at him for taking up his time, but trampling on this underground garden would be enough even after his original purpose was achieved.

He flinched.

It’s about to fly up to the gate in an instant.

But at that moment...

“Eup...?”

The wings felt heavier than usual.

I feel now that the force of the flame seems to be weaker than at first.

“... joy.”

Such ominous signs were tried to be ignored.

It’s a dragon.

A dragon is a dragon even before it dies.

“All you have to do is catch him and ask him.”

Huo Woo-woong

...

Azanic reached the final gate in an instant and cut into the steel silver grass with his claws.

Fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu!

As expected, it is a passage through which poison flows.

Hwaaaaaaa!

Azanik flapped his wings to push away the poison, but he had no choice but to inhale some of it. No, since the poison had spread, there was no way to avoid inhaling it no matter what.

“It’s annoying... but I got it.”

Soon it takes off.

Hwaaaaaaaaaaaaa!

I saw a human running towards an old abyss.

It looks like we’re almost there already.

Azanik smiled in satisfaction and shot out a small flame.

Whioooooo...

I didn’t plan on killing him right away because he was bothering me.

The sparks flew toward the snowfall.

“No, no, you have to pay for your sins.”
