Episode 462
“...Konji?”
Her face was vibrant when I saw her before, but now it was as dull as a withered weed.
“I’m hungry... I’ve starved for two days...”
Travelers often face food problems. Native peoples of the world who are not former immigrants pack travel supplies and camping supplies in luggage that is at most the size of a suitcase, and lastly pack food and water.
Travelers with a certain level of skill could procure food locally, and if you had to carry a lot of food with you, it was likely to spoil.
However, travelers themselves had to be aware that food problems could arise at any time. This was because even just a few days of hunting and gathering could be life-threatening, not even starving.
Konji looked around and stopped his head when he saw Tansia.
For the first time in a long time, Tansia was walking around in the form of a baby dragon.
“It’s a dragon. But... I... Bob....”
Chuuuuuk...
Konji stretches her body towards Kangseol like a drunk person.
She snores as if she fainted.
When Kang Seol looked at the group, they all shook their heads.
In the end, I had to serve her a meal without even asking her anything important.
Clatter...
clatter...
Snowfall quickly whips up a simple porridge since he hasn’t starved for a while. Since receiving the opportunity to taste the meat of heroic spirits from Triam’s ogres, his cooking skills have been improving day by day.
Kang Seol supported her neck and fed her porridge with strength until she regained consciousness.
Grumbling...
At first, Konji, who was spilling all the porridge from the corner of his mouth, opened his eyes and ate the porridge as if he liked it.
“Ahh... Haa... Haa...”
Seeing Konji eating the porridge so quickly that it burned the roof of his mouth, Kang Seol regrets that he should have let the porridge cool down a bit before waking him up.
“Hwaaaah! I think I will buy it! thank you!”
“I haven’t recovered yet...”
Konji stands up and starts stretching.
“hot! I feel refreshed. “I don’t have much strength, but still!”
Ugh...
She showed a flexible appearance, like a mollusk, extending her arms to touch her toes or spreading one leg wide and raising it above her head.
Although it was good news that she recovered quickly, there were still unresolved questions between her and Kang Seol.
“Conji.”
“huh!”
“I have a question. “Can you answer me?”
“To me?”
Konji opened his already large eyes even wider and pointed his index finger at himself. And he answered with an expression that seemed like he understood something.
“I guess I should answer something to my lifesaver. sun! “I’ll answer everything!”
Kang Seol calmly asked a question.
“When I saw you before, it seemed like you were wandering the North. Is that correct?”
“huh! “I’m wandering the North.”
“...Why?”
“Because I’m an archaeologist!”
“Archaeology... now?”
Kang Seol looks surprised.
– Surprisingly, this person knows a troll archaeologist.
– Troll archaeologist is fine, but Conji you are not suited to be an archaeologist!
Konji muttered sullenly.
“Is it weird that I’m an archaeologist?”
“Oh no.”
“This is the only thing I know how to do, so I will continue to live like this.”
“I see.”
Before going too far off topic, Kang Seol asked a follow-up question.
“Why did you become an archaeologist?”
“Is it important?”
“fairly?”
“I was abandoned. Grandpa picked it up. “My grandfather was an archaeologist.”
“Can I find out my grandfather’s name?”
“grandfather? Grandpa is Grandpa. “There is no name.”
“....”
“Is it true? “Just call me Grandpa.”
“Are you moving with your grandfather now?”
“No, grandfather is dead.”
“... I’m sorry.”
Tap tap...
Konji tapping a thick book.
“A book left behind by my grandfather. “To fill this.”
It was her reason for traveling.
“But... why the North?”
“Of course, right? “Because a meteor is coming.”
Startle!
At that moment, everyone who heard the story flinched.
“What’s wrong? “Did I say something wrong?”
“Where did you hear that story?”
“My grandfather said this before he died. “The meteor is coming and the king of a new era will be born.”
Rajin said that there are probably only a few people in the present era who know about the existence of meteors. But I never thought we would run into each other as soon as we set out on the road.
“Aren’t you excited? “Who will be king?”
“Konji... last question. “Why did you visit this ruins?”
“Didn’t I tell you? “I’m an archaeologist.”
“The location is...”
“You can find the ruins even with your eyes closed. why?”
“...Conji what do you want?”
“What do you want? I don’t need anything else. “I...”
Konji’s eyes sparkled brightly.
“I just want the truth.”
Snow and the others exchanging glances.
“Okay, Congee. “Can I ask you to accompany me?”
“really? Is that okay?”
“Because I want to check the information about your ruins with the eyes of an archaeologist.”
“Then... are you going to feed me?”
“However much.”
Kang Seol took his eyes off her back and looked around the ruins.
‘It’s a little... strange.’
I didn’t mean that the ruins were strange. The ruins seemed to hold the secret of the presumed king of the next era, just as Rajin had said.
Should I just say that the statues are somewhat awkward?
“It’s awkward.”
“It’s strange, isn’t it?”
“I wasn’t the only one who felt it, right? yes? “Is everyone strange?”
Yes.
A strangeness that everyone can feel.
The beings in the statue were various living things.
There were fairies and dwarves. Even sculptures of dragons, beastmen, and countless other races.
“Why are they all... crawling on the ground?”
“You don’t have the right attitude. “Everyone is crawling on the floor.”
The posture of both hands and feet on the floor and looking straight ahead.
Just like... carving an animal.
Konji muttered.
“Hmm... Is this an expression of class?”
“What do you mean?”
“All carved life forms are bipedal, right? But the fact that they were all carved to crawl on the ground means that I hope that people who see the sculptures will not be mistaken.”
“....”
“I hope you do not mistake slaves or livestock for soldiers or objects of fellowship.”
Jian and Sindio’s fur stood on end.
“... Are you saying that they treated all other races like slaves or beasts? “A being worshiped here?”
“maybe? You’ll find out if you go further. Look over there.”
Huge door.
A really huge door was located at the end of the row of statues.
Opening the door is already a foregone conclusion.
The group stood in front of the door and waited for Snowfall to open it.
Ugh...
‘Huh?’
The door wouldn’t open no matter how hard I tried.
“... I can’t open it by myself, right?”
“stick! stick!”
Konji urged the group to stick to the door.
Kugugugugung...
Kugugugugugugung...
Soon the door began to open.
And through the open door, gigantic statues of a size incomparable to those before appeared.
“This is...”
“Human... human?”
“No, no.”
Konji declared.
“It’s a giant. “This place was... the remains of a frost giant.”
Armed giant statues lined up on both sides.
It was a huge amount of pressure.
Leap...
Leap...
Kang Seol and his party crossed the gap and headed forward.
“Are you familiar with the congee giants?”
“How much did you hear from your grandfather? Looking at the coloring and the pieces from earlier, I think it’s definitely a frost giant. “The beings who conquered the north and crossed over to the center during the era of war.”
They finally reached the end of the procession.
There are three huge thrones and three giants sitting on them.
The walls were filled with the giant’s language.
Among them, Konji reads the bold sentences.
Kang Seol also read the sentences she caught in his head.
“The last giant king. “Mum, and...”
Kangseol closed his eyes tightly.
“home.”
Sindio and Jian widened their eyes.
“home? No way...”
“If it’s home...”
Konji continued in a daze as Kangseol read along.
“Yes. home. The three giants... will they come back? The rest is all kinds of rhetoric....”
“Aaaah!”
A lot of veins appeared on Jian’s face.
“Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu....”
“Jian!”
“Hehe... Uhehehe... It was these guys?”
“what’s the matter?”
Jian said, drooling.
“At this moment, I am freed from my oath. “I can now tell you everything.”
“... what?”
Jian’s tongue spat out the faces of the members of the National Assembly as if he could not delay it even for a moment.
“Gregory... one who ministers. “There was a troll, the leader of the High Wing Tribe... whose name I don’t know.”
Kang Seol muttered.
“... Hekina.”
“what?”
“Hekina you coward. “Chief of the High Wings Tribe.”
“How do you know that name?”
“... also?”
“Azanic the Sky Dragon....”
As expected.
It was clear that he was responsible for the corruption that broke out in the north.
One question is why he joined forces with Congress.
“Is Azanik their leader?”
“No... the head of the council is someone else. On the surface, they are all equal. The leader’s name is...” Kang Seol
heard the name he had forgotten from him.
“Agrath, the great one.”
A cursed wizard who played a huge role in creating a being called Yasha.
Agras is still alive.
