‘I have a really great friend.’

Blake was amazed.

An unidentified woman completely took control of the story from Blake.

It was something he had never experienced before.

No one had ever embarrassed Blake like this, even if there was a difference in status or learning.

But Ethan was different.

“You really are a person who doesn’t even have the eyebrows for politeness! Ethan, you don’t have to deal with such a strange person. Let’s find another clue.”

“I will explain.”

At that moment, Ethan calmly opened his mouth.

At first, I felt betrayed that I was treating myself like an idiot.

However, as Ethan took the lead in the story, the sense of betrayal subsided.

Of course, Blake didn’t mean to leave this place without thinking.

ominous feeling.

I got that feeling from a woman who suddenly appeared out of the lake.

It was usually best not to deal with people with this kind of sense.

Blake was also paying attention to his master.

– There’s something you need to remember. Our Gugukdo warriors always had to face the evil ones.

A vague memory of his passionate master came to mind.

-Their cunning tongue is not enough to fool us. So always remember to act with your heart, not your head.

– A chest?

-Yes. The brain can be dazzled by the cunning tongue. However, you can overcome it with your senses and a warm heart that you have practiced for a long time!

Blake remembered the memories and felt his heart heat up again!

Yes.

No matter how cunning his tongue was, he could not deceive the passion and disciplined sense that burned in his hot chest.

So Blake chose to believe in himself rather than be deprived of initiative and deceived.

‘I’d rather find it on my own, even if it means wandering through the Black Mountains for months!’

But Ethan confronted the cunning tongue head-on.

“Hey, this is a bit embarrassing. Have you mistaken me for some gloomy dark wizard now?”

“Ego. Take a good look, is this energy mana or magical power?”

And one by one, he pulled out clues that could infer the woman’s identity.

Of course, there were some doubts.

The hot chest was crying out that the woman was evil, but the woman showed clear evidence of mana.

Evidence of disarming the evil magic circle was also confirmed.

‘Are you really a woman who has nothing to do with this?’

Blake shrugged, shuddering.

Blake, who calmed his heart that was burning like the sun, recalled his teacher’s teachings.

– Our Gugukdo Mujin is so passionate that he sometimes makes absurd misunderstandings.

– What should I do in that case?

-You just have to rely on a trusted friend! Then we will be the best warriors!

Blake apologized for his mistake.

It was because it was a mistake to havetily judged an unknown woman as evil.

Gugukdo’s Mujin sometimes fell into an illusion because of his passionate heart like the sun.

However, as a man, he admitted his mistake very quickly.

Of course, if Ethan had listened to Blake’s heart, he would have evaluated his teacher like this.

– You’re just trying to quickly admit that they’re stupid and pass the judgment on to someone else, right?

But there was no way for Ethan to know Blake’s heart.

Above all, there was no way Blake could be disrespectful to his master’s teachings.

So Blake exclaimed loudly.

“My friend, don’t look at me like that, and solve my anguish!”

In the end, with that single word, the complicated head was relieved.

Also, the teacher’s teachings were never wrong.

Although it was Blake who had suffered difficulties, his trust in the old geukdo in his heart and trust in his close friends was growing.

next day.

Whik!

Ethan threw the red fruit in his hand and raised it.

I remembered what the witch, Scarlett, had said while handing the fruit.

– Find a place where these fruits are concentrated. There must be a white fox there, you just have to capture it. Then, as I dealt with you, I’ll solve the problem in this mountain range.

widely!

The red fruit landed in Ethan’s hand again.

Ethan looked at the fruit and muttered angrily.

“How are you going to rummage through the Black Mountains if it’s not your front yard? At any rate, that witch has never been of any help.”

Blake and I scattered and asked the villagers, but no one knew about this fruit.

At that time, children ran in front of Ethan who was struggling.

“You won’t get caught this time!”

“You can’t look back on the way!”

I saw a familiar back face I had seen a while ago.

‘Perhaps?’

It had to be the bottom.

Ethan summoned one of them.

“uh? Priest!”

The child who turned around looked at Ethan and rejoiced.

It was the boy who jumped in front of the horse on the first day he came to the fortress.

“Did you disturb me?”

“no! Thanks to the priest, my brother survived, what! why did you call Can I run an errand for you? I run fast!”

Like a child who had prepared a donation in advance, he was quick to notice.

Ethan held out the fruit he was holding.

“Do you know where these fruits were found?”

“Ugh.”

The child stared intently at the red fruit and frowned.

Ethan added an explanation.

“It doesn’t matter if it’s not exactly the same fruit.”

“Oh, then I know!”

Then the child smiled brightly.

“There is a place in the forest where there is a lot of delicious fruit! When I was hungry, I went there with my younger brother and picked it up without the adults knowing. By the way… … .”

The child’s expression became increasingly gloomy.

“I can’t go now. A lot of monsters come out and it’s dangerous. Even if the forest is a little dark, there was nothing in the past when I went there, right? But now adults are not allowed to go out.”

“okay? Then can you tell me where it is?”

Then the child vigorously gestured and explained the location.

Ethan smiled at the desired answer.

“I have never eaten anything so sweet and delicious as that. Without the monsters, I would have picked it up from the priest.”

“I don’t think so. Then go.”

“yes. Good-bye!”

And as I was leaving the alley, I heard a sound in Ethan’s ear.

“That would have been better known to me, who used to gather herbs near the fortress. Even ignoring people is still oily.”

It was the sound of someone whispering to himself.

It was so small that a normal priest could not hear it.

But Ethan was different.

Originally, Ethan’s body was strengthened by the will of the devil.

As he mastered Gugeukdo, he gained a more developed sense of humor.

‘That therapist from last time.’

Ethan frowned.

From afar, the therapist was glaring at me with a grim face.

He lightly trampled on me because I felt competitive.

After that, I didn’t even pay attention, so I forgot my face.

‘Have you ever been embarrassed?’

Ethan thought bitterly.

There was nothing to think deeply about.

Ethan trampled on him for being a healer in such a remote place, so there was no doubt that the rumors wouldn’t go away.

“It is definitely there. If you look for fruit in the forest, you must be looking for that white fox.”

Ethan’s eyes widened at the sound.

‘A white fox?’

The ignorant existence was exactly what Ethan wanted.

* * *

“I told you I was here for an important request. See I’m still Do you think the blue-eyed young man will live well despite ignoring people?”

The therapist muttered sullenly, biting his nails.

Rumors like this have been circulating in the neighborhood since yesterday.

It was rumored that priests and mercenaries were asking about the fruit colonies in the forest.

The therapist remembered the eyes of the young priest who had crushed him.

As if looking at a stone by the side of the road, his pride was rather hurt by the indifferent gaze.

‘You ask even a child who doesn’t know anything, and you don’t ask me, the only therapist in this town?’

👌👌

It was so embarrassing that I wanted to give back the humiliation I had received.

Then, suddenly, the priest’s eyes met.

‘… … ?!’

The therapist was startled, as if his liver was about to fall off.

‘What, what? You probably didn’t listen to me, did you?’

It was impossible to hear the small mumbled self-talk in the distance.

But the eyes staring at him were as sharp as a blade.

“Sheesh!”

Eventually, the therapist hurriedly turned around and ran away.

Meanwhile, Ethan was staring at the back of the therapist.

– You said you came for an important request. See I’m still Do you think the blue-eyed little guy can live happily even after ignoring people?

Ethan remembered those words and smiled.

‘Somehow, I think things will be easier than I thought.’

I had to follow the therapist first.

‘Then the rest will be taken care of.’

If it was in the past, monsters were flocking to the Black Mountains now.

There was no need for Ethan to deal with the healer.

It was the moment when I was thinking like that and trying to follow the therapist.

“You seem to have a vengeance on you.”

Suddenly, Blake came out of nowhere.

He, too, seemed to have heard the therapist’s words.

Blake placed a hand on Ethan’s shoulder and shook his head.

“You who are broad-minded, forgive me.”

“Is there anything I can do other than forgive?”

He’s going to die anyway.

Ethan omitted the backstory.

But how did he accept it? Blake burst out laughing again.

“Ha ha ha ha ha! The average person would have kept the author’s rudeness in mind, wouldn’t he care about that? He is also my friend!”

Too much positivity would make you a fool.

Ethan planned to follow the therapist alone, leaving Blake alone.

But Blake hit the player first.

“So what about following the author’s footsteps? No matter how rude you are, it is pitiful to let monsters die.”

Ethan clicked his tongue.

It was an opportunity to kill the healer without touching it, but with Blake, it was clear that even that wouldn’t work.

‘Where did you sell Nunchi?’

Ethan grumbled as he looked at Blake.

* * *

Ethan was flying across the forest with a new model.

Blake was also moving at the same speed as Ethan.

months! Sasak!

The bush shook.

But the therapist didn’t even know that someone was following him.

It was just blindly heading into the depths of the Black Mountains.

That was then.

widely!

Ethan and Blake lightly stopped the new model.

The healer no longer looked forward in the dense cluster of trees full of red berries.

‘This was the place he was talking about.’

Ethan’s eyes narrowed.

The therapist began to search through the woods as if looking for something.

“Where the hell is that?”

The healer turned on the lights in his eyes and rummaged through the branches and bushes.

“I think I’ve seen you around here before.”

Ethan decided to watch him a little longer.

Meanwhile, the therapist muttered to himself.

“Damn little bastard. Do you humiliate yourself in front of people like that? Being a priest is very arrogant.”

Even Blake frowned.

“After work, I’ll have to take care of the author. How dare you insult my friend!”

But Ethan was rather expressionless.

He wasn’t idle enough to take care of every little guy.

Seeing that, Blake was amazed.

‘Aren’t you deliberately not expressing your feelings? Even though he is young, he has a lot to learn from him!’

That was then.

crumble!

I could hear the rustling of the bushes from the other side.
