Ch 59
Episode 58 – The Stone of the Sun.
Kim Jae-joo sighed and got up when he saw the paladin of his laid-back attitude.
The blanket that covered her body flew off, and the leaves rustled with her straw palms.
The popoes, who were close to Jaejoo Kim, could not open their eyes even when they heard an annoying noise.
Carefully, he reached out and stroked Raha, Cordin, and finally Berin, but there was no response.
It’s just a slight exhale to let you know you’re alive.
‘You have to go to the 20th floor to heal.’
The holy water that purifies the energy of the demon realm can be purchased until you reach the 20th floor.
‘There is no time.’
Popois, Kim Jae-ju, and finally, 49 users who are unaware of this situation.
That applies to everyone.
– Hey, hey. are you okay?
-You idiot
– Wow, I was really scared;
-Heh haha I just imagined Kim Jae-joo dying.
– But is Popoi okay?
– I just kept sleeping.
– I don’t know what to do right now;
Chatting from viewers worried about Jaejoo Kim and Popoi poured in.
‘Let’s focus.’
I was grateful for that heart, but now was the time to listen to something more important.
Taking a deep breath, he got up and walked towards the campfire.
Leto and Kerun stared at Jaejoo like that, but could not open their mouths easily.
“Is your body okay?”
Palaham was grilling small pieces of meat on a long branch.
“yes.”
His arm was a little sore, but his senses were still alive, so it wasn’t a big deal.
Jaejoo Kim sat down next to Palaham.
“It’s strange. Even the spirits were sick like that, but you are fine.”
“that······.”
The popoi hesitated to say that they were vulnerable to the energy of the demon realm.
‘Palaham doesn’t know what a servant’s heart is.’
If so, it must be a word from experience.
It means that Jaejoo Kim is questioning why he is fine.
“I think it’s because of my clothes.”
Obviously, thanks to the perm’s nature of the wrist protector, it must have been safe.
“It’s a useful piece of clothing. Because of that, I had a bit of trouble moving you.”
-Kah, the coat was wriggling alone, so I couldn’t come close.
-Falahham and the coat went head-to-head.
“······thank you.”
“I did it because I wanted to.”
“Why did you save me? For nothing, the time of destruction must have been advanced because of me.”
Jaejoo Kim slowly turned his head to the middle of the mountain, but he couldn’t see anything in the dark forest.
But it was clear that he was still alive and breathing.
Harder and more terrifying monsters.
Palaham looked at Leto with a grumpy expression on Kim Jae-joo’s question.
“Leto.”
“Yes.”
“When do we, the warriors of Tarha, give up their chanta?”
“A time to die and a time to run away like a coward.”
“Is this hymn for either one?”
“no.”
Palaham shrugged and looked at Jaejoo Kim again.
“That’s right.”
“······yes.”
“Eat.”
Palaham smiled and handed the grilled meat to Jaejoo Kim.
“More than that, I want to ask-”
“I will eat first.”
Reluctantly, he took the meat and chewed it forcibly.
“How does it taste? It doesn’t taste bad because Kerun is seasoned with various seasonings.”
“・・・・・・It is delicious.”
The meat tasted better than expected.
Jaejoo Kim ate up all the meat without knowing it, and even drank the yellow liquid from Palaham.
“haha! You seem to be getting a little bit energetic. thank god.”
“Can I ask now?”
“okay. However much.”
“The stone of the sun. How small are you?”
Palaham raised his hand and clenched his index and thumb slightly.
Even so, Kim Jae-joo’s three fingers were enough to fit in.
“this much?”
“Do you know the location of the stone?”
“I don’t know that either.”
“I’m going to see the Queen.”
At Kim Jae-joo’s words, Kerun, who was drinking alcohol, heard the news and clicked.
“no. Chanta. Isn’t it too sudden?”
Leto, opposite to Kerun, smiled and looked at Jaejoo Kim.
“I wonder. Why do you need that stone?”
As it was the case with Palaham, he did not criticize Leto for his rude tone.
The three eyes were focused on Kim Jae-joo in an instant.
“The bell … no, I will destroy the Devil Flower.”
A creepy silence descended in the forest.
– Belt?
-suddenly?
-Haha, didn’t you give up?
A roaring spark of sparks flew across Palaham’s forearm.
Only then did Palaham come to his senses and open his mouth.
“Are you serious?”
“yes.”

“It is quite interesting. How?”
Jaejoo Kim got up immediately and returned with the mechanical gloves placed next to his backpack.
“With this.”
“Is this the one that fired the magic cannon before?”
“yes.”
As Palaham reached out his hand, Jaejoo Kim meekly handed over the mechanical glove.
“Where do you get your magic power?”
When Jaejoo Kim pressed the switch on the back of his hand, the inside was revealed and a sparkling blood stone was seen.
“It’s a bloodstream. Since it is a special product of Tarha, it must not have been easy to obtain?”
“I was lucky.”
Palaham stared at the mechanical gloves for a moment, then nodded.
“okay. I know what you’re talking about. Put the sun stone here. I will beat you to the heart of the servant. Is this what you mean?”
“yes.”
“Do you know how much power the Sun Stone has?”
“·········I do not know.”
“Kerun!”
Kerun, who had been listening to their conversation, was startled and raised his upper body upright.
“why?”
“Let me count. How many bloodstream stones of this size do you need to produce a force similar to that of a sun stone?”
Kerun answered immediately.
“I think 11,950 or so.”
“Did you hear me?”
Palaham looked at Jaejoo Kim with a cold gaze.
“If you use it, your body will not be left with bone dust. Don’t even say that you’ll be fine if you split it up. You have no idea how dangerous it is.”
“it’s okay.”
“You must have known that it was a dangerous item, didn’t you?”
At Kim Jae-joo’s calm expression, Palaham’s forehead twitched.
“Why do you even do that?”
“If you die this way and die that way, if it’s the same, I’ll try to do what I can.”
Palaham, who found an irresistible stubbornness in Kim Jae-joo’s indifferent eyes, smiled.
“It’s not wrong.”
“Would you like to meet me?”
“okay. I will pass it on to you.”
“thank you.”
The tension was relieved from the drunkenness, and the pain rushed through his body.
Kim Jae-joo got up as he grabbed his dizzy head.
“Are you sleeping here today?”
“okay.”
“My body is not listening. I will lie down first.”
“Let me rest. A difficult day will await from tomorrow.”
“······yes.”
Jaejoo Kim returned to Mopo, where Popoy was sleeping.
Popois still had their eyes closed and did not move.
Just in case, he pulled out a magic stone from his backpack, but there was no response.
“Chanta!”
Palaham, who was watching the scene, called Jaejoo Kim.
“yes?”
“Can’t you sleep?”
“It’s a little disturbing.”
“haha! In that case, it’s best to sing.”
“······yes?”
– You’re a song taryeong haha
– It’s on fire, but are you fanning it?
Kerun sighed and opened her mouth.
“Warrior. Chanta was originally a traveler. It might be rude to say that.”
“You explain.”
“Yes?”
“Do you not like it?”
Palaham’s forearms twitched.
Kerun flinched and opened her mouth quickly.
“Chanta.”
“yes.”
“I don’t sing very often in Tarja. I usually only call when I am about to die, or when something really good is happening.”
“What song is it?”
“Usually, it is sung with the martial arts of the warriors. To spread his bravery. That is why the warriors of Tarha consider it the greatest honor of their lives to have a song bearing their name.”
Palaham coughed and sneaked in.
“There are about 20 songs with my name on it.”
Kerun gave him a pathetic look.
“ah. Yes. I wish you well.”
“Kerun, let me call you one more time.”
“You know there are no songs with my name on it, right?”
“this. I did. Then you can sing my song.”
“I don’t like it.”
Palaham’s forearms twitched.
“I will call you.”
-Palaham this shack haha In the end, I was proud of myself.
-Kerun forced to go to Melon;
Kerun cleared her throat and raised her voice.
The tone was so beautiful that it was hard to believe that it came from a man’s mouth.
Jaejoo Kim covered the blanket and lay down.
Without realizing it, I couldn’t close my eyes.
At the comfort of the song, my consciousness suddenly faded away.
The way to the city in the morning was peaceful.
Jaejoo Kim was worried about the gatekeepers spit out by the servant’s heart and asked Kerun.
“ah. If that is the case, Palaham has arranged it.”
Although it was condensed by saying
Palaham was much stronger than Jaejoo Kim expected.
Still, when I thought that I couldn’t do something with the servant’s heart, my heart grew heavier.
The meeting with the queen was accomplished in an instant.
Palaham told me to wait at home for a little while, and less than an hour.
“ruler. Let’s go now.”
“Where do you mean?”
“Of course, that’s where the Queen is.”
“Are you sure it’s been talked about?”
“Do I have any reason to lie? Don’t worry, let’s go.”
Jaejoo Kim handed the Popois he was holding in his arms to Palaham.
“Give me a moment.”
“okay.”
I couldn’t keep carrying it.
No matter what the outcome, Popois won’t be safe if he stays by his side.
The passage of the inner wall was not blocked thanks to Kerun and letters of recommendation that Palaham gave as a guide.
Although the people he met along the way looked suspiciously at Kim Jae-joo’s clothes.
“Chanta. You seem to know the way well.”
“It’s an illusion.”
“You’re way ahead of me in those things.”
“It’s an illusion.”
“···yes.”
I think I got tea because I was in a hurry.
But there was no time to worry.
The bell’s heart, which appeared when the sun rose, had already bloomed three petals.
There were less than two days left until all the remaining seven petals bloomed.
‘There is no time.’
You should also consider if the Queen turns down her offer.
Time is running out to search all the places where the Sun Stone is supposed to be hidden.
After making an audience reservation, Kerun followed the instructions to wait in the hallway.
The hallway leading to the queen’s office had no fancy items.
Only stone statues commemorating the best warriors were lined up on the wall, and it was full of ugliness.
“Please come in.”
The warrior said as he opened the door with a firm expression.
The moment Kerun and Jaejoo Kim nodded their heads and were about to enter.
“Kerun-sama, I am commanding you to wait here.”
“What?”
Kerun had an exasperated expression on his face, but the warrior’s expression was firm.
“it’s okay.”
After saying that, Jaejoo Kim disappeared into the door in an instant.
The queen’s office was spacious as it doubled as a conference room.
Except for the two warriors guarding the entrance, there were only Kim Jae-joo and one other person.
An old woman was sitting at the top of a long table.
If it weren’t for the long gray fur cloak and the iron crown on her head, she wouldn’t even know she was a queen, her appearance was so lowly.
Jaejoo Kim knelt down on one knee and bowed his head.
“I see the great Queen of Tarha.”
“haha.”
The Queen’s laughter was full of power.
“Get up.”
Jaejoo Kim got up immediately.
The queen looked at Jaejoo Kim with an interesting look.
“This is the first time Palaham has written a letter of recommendation to a traveler. I wanted to see your face.”
“I’m sorry if I was rude.”
“Excuse me, I’m looking up at you.”
Unlike the thorns in her words, the queen’s expression was relaxed.
“I don’t have time.”
The two warriors guarding the entrance flinched and glared at Jaejoo Kim.
The hand on his waist was ready to take out his weapon at any moment.
“It’s been a long time since I’ve seen someone so cheeky in front of me. No, that’s why Palaham wrote a recommendation letter?”
The queen sighed and stood up.
With both hands on the wooden cane leaning on the table, he walked to Jaejoo Kim.
Old boots and monochromatic clothes worn by the lower classes of Tarha were revealed.
– not; The queen looks like this?
– First time seeing it.
-Your clothes look just like your local grandmother haha
“okay. dragon is something I don’t think I’m here to play.”
“I need a Sun Stone.”
The corner of the queen’s mouth curled to one side.
“The reason is?”
“I’ll get rid of the devil’s flower.”
“No need. I don’t think that will change my fate.”
“You will still have to give it.”
“I? Why?”
“I know the secret of the sun stone.”
The queen slammed her wand.
“okay? If you think it’s nonsense from now on, you’ll have to bleed.”
“good.”
It wasn’t a sure way.
But it was definitely the best way.
Kim Jae-joo’s gambling has begun.
