Episode 132

Qualification

“Uh, what’s that code?”

The man at the reception desk jumped up from his seat and put on a bewildered expression on his face.

“Wait.”

Codran did not even look at the man and came to Jaejoo Kim, making squeaky footsteps.

“Is this your first time here?”

“yes.”

“You, maybe… … .”

Because of the hood worn by Jaejoo Kim, Codran tilted his head and sighed.

“… … no. No way.”

The man at the reception hurriedly approached him and looked at Jaejoo Kim and Coderan in a cold sweat.

“Are there any problems?”

“no. No problem.”

Codran snorted and turned back again, shaking her head.

Codran’s horns, which quickly glowed blue, cooled down.

“Hey.”

The man at the reception narrowed his eyes and whispered to Jaejoo Kim.

“You tell me.”

“Did you secretly enter the forest of spirits?”

“I didn’t go in.”

Despite Kim Jae-joo’s knife-like answer, the man could not erase his doubtful face.

“The watchmen are very sensitive to that. If that’s the case, it’s going to be a big deal. Now, in our ‘Myungwon’ clan, we are talking about turning on the lights and protecting the surroundings… … Did you not hear me?”

Jaejoo Kim shook his head with a smirk at the man’s words pouring out words and emphasizing the unique ‘myungwon’.

“I never did.”

“Hmm. Anyway, be careful. I don’t know what’s going on, but it’s the first time I’ve ever seen a guardian react like this.”

“yes. Be careful.”

Jaejoo Kim was to the point of getting a sting in the back of his head at the buzzing and pouring attention from behind.

– Oh, look at how bloody the atmosphere is;

-Jaejoo Kim will meet the fairy king! If you do, I will kill you.

Jaejoo Kim felt the same way.

‘I’d rather pass the exam quietly.’

Excessive interest before even being properly seated on the 30th floor was poison.

In Panguk, who is already feeling the burden, I thought that there was nothing good about discovering her identity.

“Everyone, calm down and there, don’t leave!”

After the man who warned Kim Jae-joo calmed the people around him to be quiet, he sat down at the reception desk looking exhausted.

“What should I do.”

At the man’s question, Codran slowly nodded.

“Go quickly.”

The man gestured backwards as if he was annoyed, and the moment Kim Jae-joo quietly passed Codran and the man.

“human.”

Coderan lowered her voice and spoke.

“yes?”

“You seem to be loved by the fairies. I can feel the thick scent. It’s something I’ve never experienced before. Did God take care of you?”

– A caring dog.

-???: die! die! die!

-It’s you lol

“… … haha. How did it happen?”

At the awkward voice of Jaejoo Kim, Coderan smiled softly and turned his head to the approaching user.

“I wish you good results.”

“… … Yes. thank you.”

Jaejoo Kim quickly headed to the forest of spirits in an awkward mood.

– Hey, hey, hey, are you crying?

“I don’t cry.”

– Oh no.

-Stop kidding me lol

– Ubebebebeep.

“… … Don’t speak.”

On the way to the forest of spirits, I did not see a single human nose.

The noisy back makes it feel like another world.

‘This is a meadow.’

There was only the breeze stroking his hair and the thick smell of grass.

The place where Jaejoo Kim first met Codran on the 25th floor was still welcoming him.

‘It feels like it’s already old.’

I entered the forest with a unique feeling, and another welcome sound was heard.

“I’m here. Already here!”

“Is this person unusual?”

The little figure with only his head sticking out from behind a tree with a chirping voice was a fairy by anyone’s eyes.

“there… … .”

As Kim Jae-joo spoke carefully, the fairies rushed and flew away.

There were more than ten that reached.

“Have you ever met us?”

“I have? I have?”

“You idiot, I can smell the forest!”

Kim Jae-joo couldn’t easily open his mouth as they talked about each other.

“Can I continue on this road?”

When Jaejoo Kim raised his voice, the fairies stopped talking.

“follow me!”

“no. Let me guide you!”

“Because you did it to another human earlier, I’ll do it!”

– not; Why are you fighting over it?

– Big-yeop

Kim Jae-joo folded his arms with a puzzled expression and sighed, then strode inside.

“oh! Where are you going!”

“But is that the right way?”

“That’s what we came out of there!”

“right. Humans do not know the way.”

All the fairies followed after Kim Jae-joo.

“If another human comes, shouldn’t we be guiding the way?”

Jaejoo Kim cautiously opened his mouth to the squeaking fairies, feeling the pressure that was subtly felt.

“it’s okay! If you wander anyway, other kids will come and tell you.”

“Because we were just out of boredom!”

“So, thank you!”

“… … haha. Thank you for caring me.”

The fairies seemed to like Jaejoo Kim very much, so they flew around and took the lead in guiding the way.

As a result, I quickly arrived at a large vacant lot.

“You’re a new human.”

Guardian of Valor.

Raoul was seen.

“Come here!”

Raoul was lined up with dozens of watchmen and weaving a square, but the sound of his shouting was terribly solemn.

– It is you who should come here;

-How dare you, to Hwang-Rapo

– That’s right.

Jaejoo Kim approached Raoul with a happy heart.

“Raul. Raoul! Interesting. Humans smell the forest!”

As the elves chased after them, Raoul pulled out the spear sticking to the floor with a sad expression on his face.

“Aren’t they the people who were there occasionally? What a log… … .”

Raoul’s speech was blurred.

Because the scent of the forest felt by the approaching humans was different from the humans who had been there.

If you simply felt the scent, you would believe that the forest itself exists.

“How could this be… … ”

Raul opened his eyes and looked at Jaejoo Kim.

-Look at the red horns lol

– Embarrassed jam haha

“Is there any problem?”

Kim Jae-joo pretended not to know, and lowered the hood and asked the question calmly, and Raoul shook his head wildly.

Still, the appearance of rolling his hind feet a little was very unsettling.

“human!”

Raoul raised his voice and held the spear firmly.

“yes.”

“We have decided to put a test on you under the direction of the Fairy King. would you agree? If you don’t want to, you can go back now.”

“I will take the test.”

At Kim Jae-joo’s calm attitude, Raul raised the corner of his mouth slightly, then hardened his expression later and laid down the spear as if it were about to stab him.

“good night. Then I will ask if you are worthy to set foot here.”

When Raul finished speaking, the guards standing in a line also pointed their spears at Jaejoo Kim.

“You might get hurt, so step back.”

Raoul looked at the fairies and said, and the fairies flew in front of Raoul’s face.

“Can’t you just send it off?”

“right! right! It must be the person the Fairy King is looking for!”

“No way! The test is a rule set by the Fairy King! No one is an exception.”

Raoul snorted and the fairies backed away and rumbled.

“Raoul is an idiot!”

“Let’s go tell the Fairy King.”

“Okay!”

Raoul looked at the flying fairies with a tired expression, then quickly hardened his face and glared at Jaejoo Kim.

“human. The content of the exam is simple.”

“What can I do?”

“You only need to block our attack three times.”

“Is that the end?”

“It would be better not to look down on you. I’m just going to push you to the point of death.”

At Raul’s remarks, Jaejoo Kim smiled softly as if it was okay.

“Isn’t there a rule that says that tools made by humans should not be used?”

Kim Jae-joo’s confident attitude made Raoul smile as if he liked it.

“However much! On the contrary, I think that will make us more likely to fight. Today, there were only really weak and fallen humans.”

-You mustn’t look down on Raul lol.

-ㅇㅇ Carelessness is Abba. Higher than the 25th floor.

Jaejoo Kim knew it too.

If their level was funny, the humans on the 30th floor would have devoured the forest of spirits earlier.

“Are the preparations over?”

Jaejoo Kim asked and just stood there, and Raul tilted his head and asked.

“yes.”

Jaejoo Kim replied with a calm expression.

“good night. Close the siege!”

At Raul’s words, the watchmen shook the ground and surrounded Kim Jae-joo in a circle.

Its agile movement was so agile that it could not even be compared with the 25th floor.

“Will you not regret it?”

Watching the watchmen, who are taller than humans, point their spears and look down with a cold expression, it was enough to make even most users flinched and nervous.

“it’s okay.”

“huh.”

Raoul slammed his forefoot.

“attack!”

it was simultaneous

The spears all over Kim Jae-joo’s body were pierced so quickly that they looked blurry.

Shh!

The coat flew away all the approaching spears, and it returned to its original shape without any hesitation.

There was a thick silence in the forest.

“Room, just?”

Raoul’s horn turned red.

Not only that, but even the horns of all the watchmen.

-Ah, good stop signs here!

– You crazy man.

“Is it over?”

Jaejoo Kim asked Raul as if provoking.

“… … I go again!”

This time, the watchmen and Raul began to circle around Kim Jae-joo.

The appearance of moving the window gently as if it were about to be stabbed, as if drawing a picture, was so dazzling that ordinary users could not even breathe due to the tension.

Unfortunately, it didn’t work for Jaejoo Kim.

Jaejoo Kim did not blink an eye with a relaxed expression as if he had gone on a picnic.

Raoul swallowed his embarrassment and went out first through the spear.

As a signal, the spears of the guards were shot from all directions, targeting Kim Jae-joo’s whole body.

P-ying!

At an unparalleled speed, as if they had seen it before, the sound of ripping the air from the window rang out.

easy profit.

This time the result was the same.

Jaejoo Kim deflected all attacks without moving a single step.

“A spear made of trees and trees.”

Even some of the spears could not withstand the shock and the watchmen gave a vain expression to the spears that were broken and shortened.

Jaejoo Kim looked at Raul without saying a word.

“… … There would be no point in doing more.”

“Are you successful?”

“You may pass.”

– Oh haha

– Come back stronger, watchman!

-Hwang-Lapo

Jaejoo Kim bowed his head and quickly passed Raoul.

It was because the guards of valor and Raul were engulfed in a deep sense of defeat to open their mouths now.

“I knew it!”

“The human chosen by the Fairy King cannot be weak!”

The fairies who were watching the situation from the forest came out and followed Kim Jae-joo.

“I’ll guide you!”

“If it’s Peyron, it will make sense! right?”

“right. right.”

-Wow, but if Jaejoo Kim is recognized as the Fairy King, is he really going to be number 1 on the 30th floor?

-I have king ability.

-What are you talking about– The real number one is Popo.

-Ah haha Actually, Jaejoo Kim was only in 3rd place?

Following the guidance of the fairies, we quickly arrived at the vacant lot where we could see another guardian tree.

“You are the man the fairies were talking about.”

I saw Fayron, who was talking to the fairies.

and.

“welcome.”

The fairy king could be seen floating in the air with sparkling wings.

“I’ll wait.”

Jaejoo Kim took a deep breath as his face heated up as the words and songs of the fairy king on the 25th floor lingered in his head.

“It is an honor to meet you.”

He pretended to be okay, made an indifferent expression, and bowed his head politely.

“It’s just like the kids said. The scent of the forest is so strong that humans… … It’s my first time.”

The fairy king smiled and greeted Kim Jae-joo.

“Fairy King. With Jin in a hurry… … .”

“it’s okay.”

While Jaejoo Kim slowly walked towards them, the two lowered their voices and said something they didn’t understand.

“human. Stop there.”

The fairy king looked at Jaejoo Kim and said.

“… … Do you have any problem?”

“Are you just here to pass the exam? Or are you here to prove that you are the person I am looking for?”

At the fairy king’s question, Jaejoo Kim slowly opened his mouth.

“Perhaps, I came here thinking that the person the Fairy King is looking for is me. I’m sorry if I was rude.”

The fairy king laughed and shook his head.

“no. You feel you deserve it. Then we will check.”

Before Jaejoo Kim could even ask what he meant, the fairy king’s wings started to shine brightly.

Pa-Gigi!

A white circle was drawn under Kim Jae-joo’s feet and began to surround him.

It was similar to the barrier that imprisoned the demonic monsters on the 25th floor.

“I have no intention of killing you.”

The fairy king looked at Jaejoo Kim with a serious expression and continued.

“Instead, I want to tell you that it would really hurt if that was a lie.”

Jaejoo Kim knows that the Fairy King does not lie, so he calms his breath and waits for the result.

Par – Jijik!

Soon, a round barrier soared upward, forming a translucent film.

Dozens of lightning bolts surged from within the curtain and bounced back and forth.

Lightning bolts passing through Kim Jae-joo’s whole body began to cluster over his head at such a speed that he couldn’t even catch it.

– It’s okay, right?

– Barrier expert! are you watching now

-ㅇㅇ It looks like it was made in a hurry, but it’s not to the point of dying.

The round sphere, which had grown bigger with sparks, landed on Kim Jae-joo’s crown.

Kwa-ang!

Before the sphere could reach Kim Jae-joo’s head, it scattered with a loud roar as if it had hit a transparent membrane.

After a while, the transparent membrane shattered like glass and melted on the floor without a trace.

‘… … Qualification.’

Jaejoo Kim called the skill window and checked something, and realized the identity of that ‘qualification’.

[The fairy king’s protection. Lv.2]

“It was you.”

At the sound of the fairy king’s trembling voice, Jaejoo Kim hastily closed the skill window.

“The man who kept the ancient oath.”

I saw the fairy king weeping.
