Chapter 128

The Giant King stood up.

A boy with white hair. On the outside, it was just a small child, but the trembling of mana was unusual.

The ruins shake and stone dust falls from the ceiling. The corpses of numerous giants on both sides seemed to be alive and moving at any moment, and the floor was gradually cracking.

Xian and Hector took their defense.

Seeing these two, the giant king raised his hand, mainly looking at Xian.

OK.

-Karang!

With the sound of the chain moving, he came to a standstill.

Cyan and Hector, who were preparing for an attack that could come at any moment, frowned.

The King of Giants also had a bad expression.

“This, this!”

He waved his arms around to try to get out of the throne somehow, or to move his mana and attack.

But neither attempt worked. The fluctuating mana also subsided as if it had never happened, and the shaking ruins returned to their original state.

The seal that imprisoned him forbade him from leaving the throne and destroying the ruins by force.

yet.

The Giant King swallowed and raised his head.

“… … .”

“… … .”

Cyan and Hector were staring down at the giant king as if they had approached that place before they knew it.

“You guys, don’t do anything stupid. Do you think it will be okay if it touches me?”

The giant king stepped back and spoke. The content was bold, but the trembling of the voice could not be hidden.

Hector smiled and said.

“Are you going to be comfortable this time?”

“I know.”

Xian nodded and quietly raised his sword.

The giant king began to break out in a cold sweat as he saw the sword with a sharp blade.

* * *

The giant king was sitting on the throne with his eyes closed. From the guy with his arms crossed, an indomitable spirit that would not give any answer leaked out.

Even with a knife stuck to his throat.

“I do not know. I know nothing!”

“I haven’t asked anything yet.”

“Anyway, I don’t know! Kill me if you can!”

At those words, Xian narrowed his eyes. Do you have a place to believe in something?

With that thought, he raised an aura and tried to lightly cut the skin on the giant king’s neck.

Kang!

But it failed.

Even though it was obviously a sword with an aura, only my hands felt itchy as if I was hitting a rock with a piece of metal without a blade.

It was the first time I had ever seen such a tough guy.

“Are you willing to cooperate with devils and guys like you in the aftermath of that b*tch?”

The King of Giants trembled and shouted loudly, as if believing that hard body.

Aside from recognizing at once that Hector was a demon, it was a very difficult situation.

Because of the seal, it is impossible for him to harm us. But likewise, there was no way to harm him either.

“You say Huin, but who do you mean by her?”

“I don’t know.”

“How are you alive and not dead? No, why did someone who made this seal seal it without killing you or the other giants?”

“I don’t know!”

The spirit of not yielding to the enemy.

It was nice, but because of his youthful appearance, he only seemed like a spoiled child.

In addition, being in the position to interrogate was also a big problem.

‘What should I do… … .’

When I checked, the guy’s skin was really hard. It’s not just hard enough, it’s at a level where I wonder if I can get scratches even if I raise an aura with all my strength.

In this part, he was really worthy of the title of King of Giants.

But because of that, there was no way to get him to open his mouth.

“What is this stone?”

Meanwhile, Hector, who was not particularly interested in the giant king’s interrogation, was showing interest in the large rock behind the throne.

A huge rock the size of several houses put together. Tapping it, Hector murmured.

“oh! Don’t touch that!”

At the Giant King’s cry, Hector’s hand, which he tried to tap once more, stopped in the air.

He blinked and looked this way, then grinned.

“Did I do something?”

The Giant King broke into a cold sweat, and Xian withdrew his sword.

“Yeah, well done.”

Threatening the giant king himself has no effect. But that rock looked different.

Watching Xian approach the rock, the Giant King swallowed.

That’s not just a rock. It was his heart that he kept intact.

His body was destroyed and only this small shell remained, but his heart, which contained his strength and vitality, was still intact.

Simply put, that was his real lifeline.

“stop!”

As Xian approached the rock, the Giant King shouted loudly.

I couldn’t stay still because I thought the sword in my hand would cut through my heart at any moment.

This little body of his reconstituted body was as hard as the body of the past, but the mayor was not.

If a swordsman like Xian gets cut, he just dies.

“What, what do you want to ask?”

Sian lowered his sword satisfactorily at the sound of a broken voice. Then he stroked his chin for a while.

I want to ask. Yes, there are a lot of things.

Since he is also the culprit of the ancient era, from simple historical curiosity to hell related to Ravi and the work of a man called Nemesis.

But what I wanted to ask right now was this.

“Atlanta said. Find a king in the eastern lands.”

“Atlanta? Have you met him?”

Xian nodded. Then the question continued.

“Are you still the king of giants?”

“of course. My throne has not yet been threatened by anyone!”

The king of giants screaming vigorously. Hector added an explanation from the side.

“In giants, the strongest eats the king.”

It seems like humans don’t care about lineage or anything like that.

Xian nodded and asked a question.

“Then I guess I can give orders to the other giants.”

The Giant King nodded with a confused expression.

Conversely, Xian smiled.

I thought that this could be a significant loss.

* * *

Half a year has passed since Xi’an spent here in the tomb of the giants. However, for half a year the Imperial war showed no signs of ending.

Far from ending, they succeeded in invading some of the territories of Glacier Baengnyeong and Jakarta, and some say it’s a very festive mood.

Part of it is probably the story of the imperial family and high-ranking nobles who led the war.

‘It would be difficult if the empire was so energetic.’

From Xian’s point of view, the growing power of the empire was undesirable.

It was because it was in line with the growing influence of the family head.

The best situation for him is a state where the three kingdoms maintain a tight balance as before. In that state, to seek asylum in either Glacier Baengnyeong or Jakarta.

That was the direction he was drawing.

Therefore, the smaller the territory of the two countries, and the stronger the influence of the empire, the worse it was for Xi’an.

‘I have to make the empire stop the war.’

But, of course, they are not the ones who will listen to words.

The best way for him is to make war impossible.

Taking away the giants who were firmly supporting the empire would be a very good method among many methods.

‘But how do you take it… … .’

Xian looked at the giant king while thinking about that.

The chain that bound him ran around and through the rock at the back of the throne, extending to one side.

After taking a look at them, he turned his gaze to the rock.

“Should I just kill him?”

Hearing the murmur, the Giant King trembled.

There was no way I wanted to die just because I had lived for so many years.

“Isn’t this me, the giant king, necessary for something!?”

“I heard that the strongest man is king? If I kill you, won’t I become king soon?”

“Everything, of course, I’m talking about the strong one among the giants! There’s no way you could have a different race as king!”

“Sheesh.”

The King of Giants trembled when he saw Xian genuinely clicking his tongue. It’s like, you evil devil!

Glancing at him, Xian was lost in thought.

‘Are you saying that in order to easily stop the giants, I have to take them and make them give orders?’

If you think simply, after absorbing the power of the giant king, it would be possible to beat all the giants of the empire.

But that wasn’t a viable option.

In the first place, even in Atlanta, it was not possible to fully absorb all of his power.

The same goes for the King of Giants.

Absorbing the guy’s power would make him somewhat stronger, but the benefit was less than using one giant king fully.

‘But let’s leave it as a last resort.’

It’s the same thing as Hector’s time. It could have taken away all of Hector’s powers, but he didn’t.

Judgment that the one who manages the guy in perfect condition will be able to do more.

Actually, it fits so well that Hector has been doing his very good job so far… … was becoming a colleague.

The King of Giants should think in that direction right now.

“… … .”

“… … .”

Hector and the Giant King trembled with an unknown chill.

“How should I seal it?”

Leaving the two shivering alone, Xian followed the chain to the back of the rock.

Magic is not my major… … . As he muttered, he searched for the place where the chain came out.

It was a room behind a rock.

‘Is it a sealed room?’

All the walls, floors, and ceilings of the room were filled with ancient characters.

Each one of those letters is a completed magic. Thousands and tens of thousands of such characters gathered to form a chain that bound the King of Giants.

he squinted his eyes

“I have no idea.”

In the first place, he knew only a superficial knowledge of modern magic, but he did not know it properly.

There was no way he could recognize at a glance the ancient magic, and even the highest level magic enough to seal the Giant King.

‘Is there no choice but to kill it?’

The best situation is to use the seal to take him away, but if that doesn’t work, you have no choice but to kill him.

If I leave it alone, it might stick to the Dark Magic Tower.

They seem to know how to command giants, so if they find the giant king, why don’t they capture it right away?

when he’s so worried

My chest glowed brightly, and I could feel it getting hot.

Xian immediately reached into his bosom and pulled it out.

Bronze mirror wrapped in cloth, primitive magic.

The mirror shone brightly, scattering light through the fabric.

‘This… … .’

primitive magic. According to the Demon Dragon King, the thing that originally belonged to him.

In the next moment, Xian could clearly see how the Dark Magic Tower controlled the giants.

Numerous ancient characters in the room began to be sucked into the mirror as they were reflected.

Realizing that, Xian moved so that all the letters in the room could be reflected in the mirror.

Before long, the bronze mirror absorbed all the ancient characters.

Along with that, the chain formed by the letters was also transferred to the mirror.

“oh.”

Xian was amazed. I don’t know the principle, but it’s probably the demon dragon king’s magic.

I wondered if the reason why the Dark Magic Tower could control the giants was probably because the Demon Dragon King used magic similar to this.

‘There must have been a reason why I was trying to retrieve this far away.’

Xian smiled with satisfaction and left the empty sealed room.
