Chapter 467
The moment the story about the whereabouts of the missing flying dragon came out, Kang Seol’s expression changed.
“... what.”
Pot-!
Paaaaat-!
Kang Seol and his party, who sensed a brief collision, appeared and surrounded the troll.
“Ho... You’re not planning on doing something to me as a group, are you? “Then I’m disappointed.”
Kang Seol asked.
“What are you planning?”
“What do you think they are planning?”
“....”
“Could you stay a little farther away than that? “I don’t want to cause trouble for no reason.”
Unnamed troll.
Because he was wearing a large piece of cloth commensurate with his size, it was difficult to pinpoint his features.
‘If you know where all of Baldu’s drakes have disappeared... Enemies? No, not the enemy.’
From the beginning, the whereabouts of the flying dragon were unknown. If it were an enemy, they wouldn’t have shown up and taken such a dangerous action.
“... who are you.”
“Once you find out who I am, you will have to cooperate with me.”
“gibberish. “Is your name worth it?”
“Otherwise, Baldu’s Drake will never be found?”
Konji said, tapping his solar plexus.
“torture! “I will capture you and torture you!”
“What does the congee troll say?”
“I don’t know! “It’s frustrating!”
Snowfall sighed and looked at the troll.
“You probably approached me because you wanted something, right?”
“of course! “It looks like you’re finally ready to talk.”
The troll crossed eyes with Snow Seol and smiled broadly.
“Actually, I and my friends are in a very difficult situation. So I came to lend you my strength.”
“Why us?”
“I heard you’re at odds with the Congress, aren’t you?”
“Parliament!”
It may be surprising, but what Kang Seol was hostile to was an organization called the Congress. They have already spread their influence over several northern groups.
“... Where did you hear that?”
“It’s obvious. “Think about it carefully.”
The troll’s presence was confusing.
The only large tribe that has settled in the north is the Glacier Maw. Not only does he know where Baldu’s dragon has disappeared, but he also knows that Kang Seol and his party are hostile to the council.
‘... enemy?’
When I thought about it again, I thought it would make sense if this troll was a member of Congress. So is he an enemy?
“You really don’t notice. “Then... let me introduce myself.”
The troll pointed his finger to the sky.
“Would you believe me if I told you there was another world above the clouds?”
Startle!
Konji and Kang Seol’s expressions changed at once. There was a group that could be guessed if it were not an abstract expression that exists above the clouds.
Konji shouted.
“High wings! “Lack of clouds!”
“You come from high wings. “Now I understand.”
“ha ha ha! “It took a long time.”
Konji said, looking through the dictionary.
“That trinket! That tattoo! “High wings!”
Gian and Sindio were surprised to hear the name. Because I remembered where I heard the name of the tall wings.
“If it’s a tall wing... it’s a council!”
“Hekai! Hekai said he was a member of the council!”
“That’s right!”
“You told me!”
“that’s right! “I did!”
Konji said with wide eyes.
“Parliament? ah! right! “You’re a bad guy!”
“what? ha ha ha! “Even if I think about it that way, I honestly don’t have anything to say.”
Karen and Karuna glared at the troll’s entire body.
First, once it is clear that they are enemies, conflict is considered.
“That’s creepy. “Don’t look at me like that.”
Kang Seol asked him.
“Why did the high bird wing, a member of the council, approach us?”
“Don’t say everything as if it’s decided. Because I don’t agree with that fact.”
“... what?”
Kang Seol was taken aback by the troll’s answer.
“It is Heka... who has decided to follow the Council. “Not all high wings follow his decisions.”
“That means...”
“I haven’t decided on the wings yet. Was there an answer?”
It was a fascinating topic.
If the high wings leave the council, the enemy’s power is excluded without a fight, and if the high wings are brought into the ally, that much power is added.
“... What should we do?”
“Convince Hekai.”
“Will you listen to us?”
“I create the situation.”
“Where is the dragon?”
“I’m... sorry.”
The troll scratched the back of his head.
“The truth is, I don’t know. “I just know someone worth knowing.”
“It must be Hekai.”
“... that’s right.”
Kang Seol summarized the other person’s words.
“There are more than one reason why we need to help you persuade Hekai.”
“I would appreciate it if you thought so.”
“But questions still remain. “Who are you?”
“what?”
“As a result, we have to trust you and move. If you are a worthless guy, your meeting with Hekai will not be successful. “I’m sure I’m not wrong.”
“... No, that’s right.”
It felt like I was in a dream.
There were many mountains of appropriate heights surrounding it, and colorful grass formed the vegetation.
“Where am I?”
“He said he was curious about the clouds.”
“I know you led us to the coordinates engraved on the engraving, but I’m curious about where it is.”
“It’s where the tall birds live. Is there anything special about it?”
The air was definitely different.
The breath I took was so unfamiliar that I thought I was really above the clouds.
“The High Wings are a tribe that was abandoned by the tribal alliance. “I cut ties with them and live independently on the clouds.”
Neither Konji nor Snowfall knew the exact whereabouts of the wings. It was simply one of the great tribes of their former tribal confederation. And the only thing that went wrong was that he disappeared from the continent for some reason.
Konji said to the troll.
Woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
much It’s above the clouds, but no matter how you look at it, it’s above the ground? And what is this cooing sound I heard earlier?”
“On the ground? Ahahaha! Okay, is there a mountain you can see over there?”
“uh? huh.”
“When you climb that mountain, you will know everything.”
“Where is that place?”
“Home of the High Wings. “It’s probably the highest mountain in Pandea.”
“Hmm...”
The troll did not lead them in a straight line to the mountain in the distance. I tried to move as unnoticed as possible, avoiding the villages that appeared along the winding and twisted road.
Thanks to this, we needed two more days to reach our goal, the mountain.
Cracking...
crackling...
They sit around a bonfire and sleep out in the open.
Sindio said.
“... The long expedition is coming to an end.”
“okay.”
Jian looked at the fire with unfocused eyes.
“Did you find what you wanted? Jian?”
“If you’re talking about my peace of mind... well, it’s definitely better than before.”
“I see...”
“Sindio and you?”
“I... I don’t know.”
Perhaps the person who faced the most different situation from before was Sindio.
“Why am I here?”
“....”
“We... where are we now?”
This is a question that cannot be answered even if you know the answer. Even if I understood what she meant, I couldn’t understand the worry and pain it contained.
But suddenly, Konji, who seemed to be the furthest from this story, gave an answer related to Sindio’s question.
“Humans are insignificant.”
“... yes?”
“Look at those stars. “Isn’t it beautiful?”
“What does that mean all of a sudden?”
“It’s a small and pretty star, but it’s actually very big! “Something like a human is as bad as dust.”
“....”
“Pandea is also a star in the end. Humans are just one of the many life forms that have taken root on that planet. And you are just one individual among those humans, and the thoughts you have are also just a part of you.”
“Are you talking about my worthlessness from a cosmic perspective? “That’s rude.”
“I’m saying don’t take on too much responsibility! “I thought about it and even if I failed, it was just dust that failed.”
Konji pouted his lips as if he was trying to comfort her.
“... That was comforting.”
“I can’t believe there was a guy who was worse at comforting than me. This is comforting to me too. Thank you, Conji. “For giving me trashy comfort.”
“Joe be quiet! A greasy man!”
Sindio said.
“What will Pandea look like when all of this is over?”
“Well....”
“Could it have prevented the resurrection of the three giants? Has everyone in the Federation returned to normal?”
“... Syndio.”
“I don’t know... I don’t know why I have to fight a fight that only ends up losing something precious in the end... I don’t know if I can do it.”
“The question is too stiff. Let’s take some time off. “I’m picturing a slightly closer future.”
“Okay then...”
Sindio looked into Jian’s eyes.
Jian is a gray seed.
The time I spent with him helped me understand Jian a little better.
“Will we finally reach peace?”
“Good question, Sindio.”
Jian grinned.
“It should be so.”
Sindio laughed at Jian’s lively answer.
“Sometimes I feel lucky that I get to travel with you.”
“Well, I think I’m lucky to have you too. “If I had gone out with Snowfall, I would have had spider webs in my mouth.”
Night soon gave way to morning.
There was no disturbance while climbing the towering mountain. However, the inherent risk gradually increased.
“I never thought the scale of the tall wings would be this big....”
“There was a reason it was an axis of the council. “They could become enemies.”
Like other mountains in non-administrative areas, the mountain was a sharp rock mountain, and a village was formed near its peak.
A huge village.
Lots of trolls.
And the location of this place holds an even bigger secret.
“Now look down.”
The troll who led them to the top of the mountain pointed into the distance.
“... Nonsense.”
“How is this possible?”
“amazing! amazing! “It’s a good thing you came!”
A scenery that even the snowfall can’t help but admire. The head and fin of a turtle carrying the mountains and the earth could be seen in the distance.
[Amazing discovery! Witness the sky turtle Totombo.]
[Intelligence increases permanently by 10.]
...
High Wing lived on the shell of a giant flying turtle.
The troll grinned.
“Isn’t the world seen from above the clouds bad?”
