Ch 52
Episode 51 – Learning.
Jaejoo Kim arrived at the castle tower where the Palaham was located earlier.
‘No.’
I passed the entrance with the flickering torch and walked over the wall.
Palaham was nowhere to be seen even on the ramparts.
“If you’re not here later, where would you like to go?”
“When the sun goes down, you can come to the place where it shines the most.”
‘It’s the brightest place…’
When I turned my head to the outside of the fortress wall, the sun was hanging over the hillside.
The snow on the ground turned red.
Time passes even in a world that is eating destruction.
-Even Palaham can’t catch a flower head–
-I think you’re going to learn?
-Are you deliberately enjoying pain, human?
-You like… Hoxy?
-Me.D.G.G.D.
“You have to do something.”
Jaejoo Kim answered appropriately and turned to the city.
The scenery of the city dyed with the setting sun was not bad.
variety store. magic workshop. weapon shop. bar.
At the far right, where the gray buildings flashed orange, a particularly conspicuous place could be seen.
The large, square building shimmered in golden light.
It was such a beautiful light that anyone could hardly take their eyes off it once they saw it.
‘There.’
Jaejoo Kim headed straight to his residence without any hesitation.
On the way, I saw users from time to time, but they did not show much interest in Kim Jae-joo, who was wearing a hood.
– This Shack; I intentionally don’t show you the way, is there any blockage?
– He said he knew the top well haha.
-Pago Kim
It was evening when the sun was setting by the time we reached the end of the distance.
‘I’m here.’
Compared to other residential areas, a building three times larger was caught in his sight.
The shining golden light disappeared like darkness as the sun went down.
The monotonous style and windows, which are no different from other ordinary buildings, were difficult to find if Palaham’s words were heard.
In front of the building was a wide yard and fenced, and there was an old dog guarding the door.
Jaejoo Kim passed the fence and approached the door.
Then the dog got up to his senile body and pricked up his droopy ears.
“month! month!”

The sound of being wary of strangers spread all over the place.
– It’s been a while, Dang Dang.
– What breed is this?
-Like a Shepherd
– Seeing him reminds me of my dog dog ㅠㅠ Before I came to the tower, I lived for 16 years and went to heaven.
-cock?
-yep
– It’ll be fine. I’ll go to heaven, find a girlfriend, and live a happy life
-hehe; Of course, waiting for the master
– My dog was neutered…
-…uh?
-???: Master bastard!!!
– When you die, be careful not to meet that dog.
Not long after, the door opened and a familiar face appeared.
It was Palaham.
He raised his arms and grinned.
“I’m here!”
At Palaham’s friendly demeanor, the dog quickly panted as it approached its owner.
“·······The house is beautiful. I didn’t even know my legs hurt on the way.”
-Look at Kim Jae-joo turning it around lol
– I was hurt again;
Palaham’s smile widened.
“Have you eaten?”
“More than that, I want to give-”
“People have to eat first.”
“no-”
“Come in!”
Palaham went inside, leaving only those words.
‘······ Do you have something to say?’
Palaham’s one-sided attitude was not the one who honestly shared his feelings when we broke up.
It seems that there is something questionable about Jaejoo Kim.
‘It would be difficult to ask for something like this.’
In the video, we mostly met on the battlefield, but it was the first time we had even come to his house.
Jaejoo Kim went inside with the feeling of entering a tiger’s den.
The inside of the building was neat.
Except for the fluffy carpet that was laid out long from the entrance, there was nothing that stood out.
– Wow, it’s the first time I’ve seen Palaham’s house.
-Are you really frugal for a top warrior?
– Nothing looks expensive.
When I turned right along the achromatic hallway, I saw a kitchen with a long table.
“Is your meal ready?”
There, I saw the back of a middle-aged woman cooking for a while.
The woman slowly turned her head at Palaham’s words and opened her mouth.
“Sit down now. Is that the traveler who came this time?”
She was a woman with an elegant impression with her blonde hair covered in plain clothes and a white bandana.
“Ah yes. My name is Jaejoo Kim.”
Jaejoo Kim quickly lowered the hood and answered.
“Nice to meet you. It’s called a chalet.”
The chalet smiled and spoke, then concentrated on cooking again.
“It was the first time Palaham had invited a traveler to a meal, so I wondered what he would look like, but he was a cute young man.”
While he was talking, he seemed adept at grilling sausages with one hand and mashing potatoes with the other.
She was Palaham’s wife.
Kim Jae-joo in the video only heard the words, so it was the first time I saw it in person.
“······It was nothing.”
Jaejoo Kim turned his head to Palaham in embarrassment.
He sat leisurely at the table, grabbing a fork from the table.
“What are you doing? Not sitting?”
“yes.”
Jaejoo Kim put his backpack down on the floor and sat down next to him.
Shortly thereafter, the chalet served the dishes.
Grilled Sausage. mashed potatoes. warm soup.
It was an ordinary dish for the dinner of the best warrior.
“I prepared it with the things that travelers prefer. Come on.”
Palaham put on a serious expression on his face.
“Then I will eat thank you.”
It was ordinary, but the food was hot.
It was a favor that is hard to find in the tower, so Jaejoo Kim picked up the tableware without hesitation.
I wasn’t hungry, but it wasn’t enough to eat deliciously.
“How long are you going to play pranks on the castle tower?”
“Uh-huh. It’s a joke.”
“Take care of the warriors below.”
“I will take care of it.”
The conversation that was heard in the middle was that of an ordinary couple.
– Even the best warrior was a husband who was nagging in the house;
-???: Honey, I found 10 pieces of 50,000 won in my graduation album. What is this?
– Whoa!
-Do not get married?
– Don’t do it.
So the meal ended in a calm atmosphere.
“I really enjoyed the meal.”
“Then I’m happy. I had a good meal, so please talk to me.”
Palaham gestured and stood up.
As I followed him to the front yard, I saw Palaham petting a dog.
“If it weren’t for my wife and this guy. I must have been crazy and wandering outside in the cold snow.”
He opened his mouth without looking at Jaejoo Kim.
The dog quietly fell on the floor, as if he liked Palaham’s stroking hand.
“You seem like a good person.”
“haha. When you invite strangers to a meal in Tarja, you mean you want to trust them.”
“···Is that so.”
To want to believe doesn’t mean to believe.
Palaham’s eyes raised their heads and were bitter.
“Are you sure you are a traveler?”
“That’s right.”
Kim Jae-joo’s unshakable eyes stared at him with a piercing gaze.
“okay. What about us in the eyes of a traveler? Isn’t it funny to see them repeat a foolish life even after suffering destruction?”
“Not at all.”
It was a clear, clear answer.
“haha! Is that the end?”
“yes.”
“I don’t know how to make mouth-watering noises.”
Palaham shrugged, got up and approached Jaejoo Kim.
– After telling you to turn it off when you say something nice-
– lol victim 2
Palaham, who stared at Jaejoo Kim for a moment, sighed.
“I really don’t know. But it’s not bad. I mean, that’s weird.”
“Is that a compliment?”
“of course. Is it because you have something you want to say?”
“yes.”
“Say it.”
Jaejoo Kim organized his words in his head and carefully opened his mouth.
“I’m in a bad mood right now.”
“therefore?”
“I want to become a warrior right now.”
“Is it mission related?”
“yes.”
“Good. See you again tomorrow morning. Get a good night’s sleep today.”
“Do you not ask why?”
“I’ll ask you tomorrow. Let’s sleep here.”
-Kim Jae-joo, damn sure
-Are you sleeping here?
– thorny road on
As viewers say, users usually sleep in the Well of Trials.
It was a natural choice when compared to a building built like a modern hotel and the monotonous residence of Tarha.
Additionally, after a hard day’s work, there was also the advantage of building friendships among users who felt a sense of unity.
In addition, the fact that the inhabitants of Tarha could not break into the Well of Trials was an advantage.
“thank you.”
Jaejoo Kim bowed his head without a sign of concern.
It was much better than wasting the movement because the training would start.
Because now, lifeline is more important than friendship between users.
The first day in Tarja was coming to an end.
Second day.
Early in the morning, Palaham woke Jae-Joo Kim with a lively voice and went out to the front yard.
Instead of the fur coats worn by ordinary warriors, Palaham wore a thin cloth and looked like a sturdy local uncle.
“What kind of power do you want? The great fighting skills of the Tarha warriors? How to control the imperial technology?”
“Give me time to wash. Besides, I didn’t even eat.”
Falaham raised his voice as he raised his arms as he was dissatisfied with Jaejoo Kim, who walked out with an aesthetically pleasing look.
“A sweaty bath and meal are more valuable. Don’t be weak!”
-Is it the military?
-Oh my; It reminds me of the morning canter.
Jaejoo Kim sighed and finally opened his mouth.
“What I want to learn is the art of breaking the empire.”
The ax was the most familiar to him, and it was also the weapon most wielded by the warriors of Tarha.
In addition, the Palaham was a weapon he frequently used, so the ax was the most suitable for learning.
“So you’re saying that you’ve already learned the skills of the Empire?”
“I haven’t learned it yet.”
Smash has strong destructive properties.
There were a lot of skills that were divided accordingly, and if you learn it prematurely, you will develop a bad habit.
So, I decided to listen carefully to Palaham’s advice and learn.
“okay? It’s unusual that a guy who wants to control the technology of the Empire didn’t even learn it.”
Palaham’s eyes twinkled.
“… any problem?”
Of course, this is a choice that cannot be made without the premise that Palaham is well aware of the imperial sabotage.
I thought it would be strange, but on the contrary, when his eyes were full of interest, anxiety came over.
“No! No, it’s rather good.”
Palaham grinned and continued.
“Then what should I teach? okay. First of all, the clothes are a problem.”
“yes?”
“The clothes that protect you. Are you in direct control?”
“To some extent, I can do it at my own will.”
“Do you know how to react in a dangerous moment?”
“yes.”
“It’s clothes with a will… that’s a hindrance. Take it off.”
Palaham nodded and threw the thick fur over the fence at Jaejoo Kim.
– Take it off?
-ㅗtㅑ
“yes.”
Kim Jae-joo was also concerned, so he took off his coat without hesitation.
“If you’re worried about freezing to death, don’t worry. It’s made of snow leather, so it won’t go away even if it’s buried in the snow. haha!”
“Thank you for caring me.”
“Five. You have surprisingly strong muscles, right? I like it more and more.”
“I hope you don’t mind that.”
“I’m ashamed.”
Jaejoo Kim threw his coat over the fence and changed his clothes.
– Is it a fur coat?
– Are you okay?
Kim Jae-joo, wearing a fur coat, looked like a warrior of Tarha at first glance.
“matches well.”
“yes.”
At Kim Jae-joo’s clear answer, Tarha’s smile deepened.
“Then let’s start. It was so sad when we first met.”
“yes? what-”
It was before I even finished speaking.
Palaham tilted his upper body in an instant and was shot at Jaejoo Kim.
“head.”
Palaham snorted and swung his fist.
A fist the size of his face filled his vision.
He quickly shook his head and stepped back.
“Please explain-”
“Leg.”
Palaham seemed not to miss it, so he got close and aimed at Kim Jae-joo’s calf with his right leg.
It was the same technique as when we met at the castle tower.
‘Fast.’
Even with the same method, there was no proper way to deal with it.
I was reluctant to use Rotonto because it was a battle in the guise of training.
Jaejoo Kim clenched his teeth and raised his left leg.
The mana in his body rushed to his legs at will.
bang!
An unbelievable shocking sound rang out that the legs had collided with each other.
“month! month!”
The dog, who had been sleeping in the distance, was startled by the sound and jumped up and started barking.
The eyes of the two people stopped by a brief clash and went back and forth.
Palaham’s hard and thick body was itself a weapon.
“A guy who didn’t even know how to use the power of nature? He’s as unique as his personality.”
“You are going to do this.”
Kim Jae-joo’s voice lowered threateningly as the bridge rumbled.
“What if you don’t like it?”
Palaham lowered his legs and quickly turned around.
“This time the head.”
Drawing a beautiful line that does not match the large size.
He aimed at Kim Jae-joo’s head with his tightly folded elbow.
‘Can’t avoid it.’
I couldn’t get used to that fast pace.
He barely raised his right arm to block the attack.
bang.
Another shock rang, and the sensation of a paralyzed arm was transmitted.
Palaham seemed unwilling to stop.
The fierce and one-sided confrontation lasted for over an hour.
Jaejoo Kim, who was in a hurry to stop, did not know.
shoulder. chest. etc. thighs. eight.
Each time Palaham attacks, telling him where to aim, his movements change constantly and become more natural.
In the end, the showdown ended with Jae-joo Kim’s fist stuck in his stomach, and he rolled over on the floor.
“haha.”
Jaejoo Kim let out a rough breath.
He saw a cloudy sky in his sight.
“If you hadn’t learned the art of the Empire.”
Palaham’s voice, with no sign of disarray, pierced into his ears.
Jaejoo Kim couldn’t afford to answer, so he had no choice but to listen.
“I mean, it’s possible.”
Jaejoo Kim did not ask what is possible.
[Skill has been created.]
[Tarha Combat Skill Lv.1]
Because the holographic window obscuring the cloudy sky took the place of the answer.
“Do you like it?”
“······It’s good.”
