Chapter 107
EPISODE 107 – ENCOUNTER (1)

The sight of 30,000 eastern troops heading west was simply spectacular .

As the wild gods joined the ranks, their advance became different in many ways from normal troops .

The most noticeable one was the changing of nature .

“Blessings of the Spring Breeze . ”

Gentle Snow Breeze began to sing, and the hot air of the spring breeze melted the snow and drove away the cold .

It was something that she couldn’t do now that she had left her sanctuary, but she was not alone .

Great Storm added power to the wind, and Blade Song strengthened the power of the song by singing in harmony with her .

The troops moved forward as winter was driven out .

The troops moved forward as spring trailed after them .

Each time the wild gods used their powers, the miracles became more powerful, and the morale of the eastern army soared up high as if it would pierce the sky .

“It feels like victory is in front of us . ”

Sun Song spoke with a pleased expression as he walked side by side with Red Wind who also smiled .

His hasty proposal had already been rejected, but that did not mean Red Wind and Sun Song could not see each other .

‘I’m honestly not sure about getting married . Couldn’t we be friends though?’

After Red Wind rejected his proposal, Sun Song decided to take a step back .

Even he himself had thought that it was a hasty proposal .

Moreover, the Great Storm and Blade Song tribes became the center of the eastern army, so the two would-be leaders of their tribes had to work together to properly fight .

“The western army have also begun their march…we’ll probably meet them in Snow Breeze plain . ”

Red Wind nodded at Sun Song’s words .

This single fight wouldn’t determine the fate of the east and west, but it was the first head-to-head confrontation, so they must not lose . They had to win .

‘Unnie . ’

Red Wind nodded again to Sun Song as she looked north .

The Sky Roof mountain range divided the wild lands into the east and west .

Due to the harsh environment, it was a land of death that not only people but even the wild gods avoided .

Jude and Cordelia were there now .

They were there for their crazy plan of striking the west at its rear by going through the Sky Roof mountain range .

‘They’re seriously crazy . ’

The two alone would cross the Sky Roof mountain range .

The two alone would destroy the rear of the west .

‘But I think they can do it . ’

If it was the two of them…

If it was Jude and Cordelia…

‘And if they really do it…’

The west would stagger from the unexpected punch .

It was a plan that even the east, who was their ally, thought was crazy .

‘Unnie…and oppa . ’

I look forward to seeing you again . In good health .

Red Wind gently closed her eyes as she brought her hands together in prayer .

She thought of the smiling faces of the two .

And at that same time…

While was Red Wind was imagining them warmly smiling, Cordelia was yelling curses .

“F*ck! I think I’m going to die!”

In the middle of the Sky Roof mountain range…

Jude and Cordelia were on their way as they fought against the powerful icy cold wind that blew violently as if to cut their flesh .

“F*ck! F*ck!”

It was Jude this time and not Cordelia .

Jude usually didn’t swear, but the Sky Roof mountain range made even him spout curses .

“Haa, ugh…mana, I’m running out of mana . ”

Cordelia gasped and said as she worked hard in maintaining the magic while on Jude’s back . Jude began to look around in order to find a place where they could rest .

“How long can you hold out?”

“5 minutes?”

Jude and Cordelia’s climbing method was simple .

Cordelia was carried on the back of Jude, who had drunk the ancient medicinal drink and gained a stronger body .

While being carried on his back, she spread out the shield to block the wind and also warmed the air inside the shield to somehow maintain warmth .

Jude steadily went up the mountain in that condition .

It was an incomparably simple method but was quite effective .

“Found it! Hang on for five minutes! Okay?”

“Okay…brrrrr! Fu-!”

As Cordelia grit her teeth, Jude hastened his steps .

He approached a place where there was a rock face and found a suitable crack that was not exposed to the wind . He drew his fist as he shouted at Cordelia .

“Release the shield!”

“Ack!”

Cordelia screamed instead of answering as she tightly hugged Jude’s body and released the shield . And at that moment, the violent and biting wind struck Jude and Cordelia .

“Juuude!”

Cordelia cried right behind his back, but he couldn’t properly hear it . Jude strengthened his lower body to maintain his balance as he thrust his fist in between the unexposed crack in the rock .

Black Dragon Release Technique!

Instead of a cross, he released a pure energy to break the rock face, thus making the crack even bigger .

“Good!”

This much should be enough .

Jude quickly pulled out the Cozy 1-pyeong from his waist and threw it into the crack, and a round tent was created in the span of one breath .

“Get in, get in . ”

Cordelia weakly said as her teeth chattered, and Jude opened the tent’s entrance without delay before going inside with a jump .

“Haa . ”

A breath of relief came out when the entrance was sealed up .

Even though the Cozy 1-pyeong was carelessly expanded inside the crack in the rock, it had a cozy feeling as its name implied .

“Haa…haa…”

It had only been a few seconds after she released the shield, but Cordelia’s whole body seemed to have frozen hard .

Jude quickly untied the podaegi and put her down on the floor before he covered himself with the wolf skin .

“Okay, the fur is comple-”

Cordelia stretched out her hands before Jude could finish speaking .

She tightly hugged Jude, who wore the shiny black fur, and curled herself up .

“Haa…haa…so cold . ”

The cold wasn’t a joke as it was worse than when they were in Frost Anvil .

They felt cold even though they had the Winter Protection, but if they didn’t have that, they would have frozen to death the moment the shield was released .

“Cold, cold . ”

As she repeatedly said the same word, Cordelia hugged Jude tighter .

Her embarrassment and so on caused by Adelia had already disappeared a long time ago .

She no longer cared about being embarrassed as living was more important .

“Ah…warm…”

It was thanks to Jude circulating his Qi energy around his body to give off heat .

Cordelia said as she buried her face in the fur of Jude who was like a human heater – no, a wolf heater .

T/N: Okay, I’m not sure how the Black Wolf Skin actually works . Last chapter, it said that it transformed one into a wolf . And in the sentences above, it didn’t seem like he transformed into one but just wore the wolf skin . But when he got called a wolf heater, does that mean he became a wolf? Yep, I’m confused with MTL .

 

“Haa…I can relax a little now…”

Six days after they headed to the Sky Roof mountain range…

It had only been two days since they actually started climbing, but the two had already climbed up the Sky Roof mountain range by half .

“We’re only two days away now . ”

Jude spoke as if comforting Cordelia, who closed her eyes .

It was a feat that would surprise even the wild gods if they heard that they crossed the Sky Roof mountain range in just four days, but for Cordelia, her only thought was that she had to do this crazy method for two more days .

But she was Cordelia . After having calmed down, she asked in a worried voice .

“Jude, are you okay? Does your back hurt?”

“Eh, it’s okay . Though a certain someone wasn’t as light as a feather when I carried them on my back . ”

“F*ck . ”

“My princess, why are you suddenly swearing?”

“Because Red Wind isn’t here?”

“Wait a minute, has your swearing recently decreased then?”

“No, well…it’s not just because of Red Wind . ”

Cordelia’s foul language had significantly decreased for the past month .

As she had said herself, it was because of Red Wind – or to be more exact, what triggered it was the embarrassing incident that took place near the border, but there were actually other bigger reasons for her change .

‘Is her Cordelia side showing more now?’

More than two months had passed since they awakened their memories of their past lives .

In the beginning, the influence of her previous life that suddenly appeared was so strong that she became more like Yellow Storm than Cordelia, but it was not now . Her two selves had begun to assimilate with each other .

‘Because we were reincarnated and not transmigrated . ’

Both of them had lived for 17 years as Jude and Cordelia .

And every time he thought about it, he realized .

This was also a real world .

It was not the same as the world in the game .

But that made him even more afraid .

The future that awaited them .

If everything went according to the original story in the game, this world will eventually meet its end and be destroyed .

‘No, we can change it . ’

Many things had already changed .

They had caused numerous butterfly effects .

‘It’s mostly about people . ’

That was what Jude and Cordelia could do themselves .

Things that could heavily affect the rolling wheel of fate .

They saved people . They gathered people .

Conversely, they eliminated those who would become their enemies .

‘Lucas and Cordelia . ’

The two were originally incompatible .

If Lucas lived, Cordelia became a demonic human, but if Cordelia lived, Lucas became a demonic human .

But not now .

Moreover, the relationships had also changed .

‘In the original, the relationship between Lucas and Cordelia was such that they literally only knew the other’s face and name . ’

But not anymore .

Lucas was close not only to Cordelia, but also to Jude himself . They had helped and received his help a lot of times .

‘There’s also Red Wind . ’

In the original, Lucas and Red Wind never worked together .

Lucas was a knight from the north who had been taught that barbarians were beasts and not humans . And Red Wind came to hate the northern humans after her life in slavery .

If the two had met, they could only be hostile to each other .

But what about now?

If the two had met while Jude and Cordelia were with them?

“What are you thinking about?”

At Cordelia’s question, Jude spoke of the things that came to his mind, and Cordelia smiled .

“You’re right, all of us can become friends, right?”

It was line that would usually appear on children shows, but at that moment, Jude felt like he had been enlightened .

He already had thoughts about it, but he was suddenly convinced that it was possible now .

‘If it’s Cordelia . ’

It might be possible .

It was impossible for Jude himself, but it could be possible for Cordelia who had amazing sociability .

They would not only save all of the playable characters, but also get all of them to work together as comrades .

All of the playable characters would fight together with Cordelia at the center .

“Wow . ”

Just imagining that scene thrilled him .

In the original game, that was absolutely impossible, but that could become possible in reality .

If it’s Cordelia, we might really be able to that now .

“What, why are you suddenly saying ‘wow’?”

“Ah, I just thought that it would be great if all the playable characters fought together . ”

He deliberately left out the idea of placing Cordelia in its center, as the idea of all playable characters fighting together was enough .

“Wow, that’s really wow . ”

Her motivation suddenly soared .

She now felt optimistic that they could really stop Armageddon and achieve a happy ending .

“Are you saying that Maximilian and Leon would be fighting together? And leave their backs to each other?”

Maximilian was the main character of Legend of Heroes 2, and Leon was his rival .

Would the two people who were at odds with each other to the very end of the game really work together?

“Perhaps even Red Wind and Kirara would fight together . ”

The two were both from the wild lands but hated each other .

“Wooow, I think I’m getting goosebumps . ”

They could feel such emotions because the two were rotten waters of Legend of Heroes 2 .

It also meant that pairings that were usually found in fanfiction could now be possible .

“Maybe it’s possible for Lucas and Red Wind to get married?”

“Eh?”

“I mean, I thought it would be better to give her to Lucas than to Sun Song . ”

“Red Wind is not an object . ”

“Anyway . ”

Cordelia’s eyes brightened .

Because she remembered the playable characters who would be present in the royal capital of the Sälen Kingdom .

She would be able to meet them once they had safely completed their mission here .

“We saved Lena too . ”

It was the best result they had achieved at the present .

They had completely saved Lena’s life .

“Can we save the other two?”

She was referring to two of the five main characters in the first episode of Legend of Heroes .

Necromancer Velkian and Druid Fran .

“I guess so . And above all…we need to save Landius . ”

Iron Man Landius .

He was Jude’s own master and the man who might be the strongest among the five heroes in the first episode .

“I think it might be more difficult than Lena . ”

The rotten waters of Legend of Heroes speculated that Landius was killed by Duke, a high-ranking demonic human of the Devil’s Eye, but no matter how much the two thought about it, it seemed to be impossible .

“Landius is too strong . ”

He wasn’t the Landius that they knew in the first episode .

The Landius in the second episode was literally a superhuman .

Duke killed Landius? That doesn’t make sense .

“I’ve considered the idea that… Landius was corrupted and became Duke, but that’s also impossible . ”

“Why? Because Landius couldn’t be corrupted?”

“No, their sizes are different . ”

“Ah . ”

Landius was a staggering 230 cm tall, while Duke was only 180 cm .

They couldn’t even think of the two as the same person .

“Perhaps finding out the cause of Landius’ death…and saving Landius might be the key to victory . ”

Jude couldn’t open a new door after consuming the ancient medicinal drink, but after he reached approximately 4/5 to the next door, he realized it .

Ninth Heaven’s Nine Doors was literally a powerful martial art .

And Landius was a superhuman who opened up to the seventh door of the Ninth Heaven’s Nine Doors .

Based on this point in time, Landius was probably the strongest among all the living ‘humans . ’

“It’s just absurd . We have to figure out why a person who’s too strong to be killed had died . ”

“Perhaps he won’t just die if we don’t do anything . ”

“That might really be possible if it’s Landius . ”

Jude and Cordelia recalled Landius’ face and body for a moment and simultaneously smiled .

“May the muscles always be with you . ”

“Sob, sob, Master . I will do my best . ”

“No, don’t cry . You’ll lose your muscles . ”

At Cordelia’s vocal impersonation, Jude flinched instead of smiling . Because he remembered the trauma that originated from those few days .

“That was a really horrible time . ”

“But thanks to him, your body has improved a lot . ”

“Hmm…”

When he looked back on it, it wasn’t all bad memories .

He had such a hard time back then that he couldn’t properly enjoy (?) Cordelia very gently taking care of him .

“Are you having another strange thought?”

“No, I was just thinking that we could achieve many things if we win this fight . ”

He said that to change the subject, but what he had said was the truth .

“Are you talking about your father and my father?”

“Because the two were originally killed during the invasion of the northern barbarians . ”

However, if they destroyed the west and the invasion of the northern barbarians itself, they would be able to save the lives of their fathers .

Even if a war between the east and north happened as Gaël feared, they wouldn’t just stand around and watch as they would then twist history as much as possible .

The survival of Count Bayer and Gaël .

It wasn’t just a simple matter of doing their best to stop Armageddon .

It was something he wanted to achieve as Jude Bayer .

“Haa, come to think of it, it’s really amazing . ”

“About what?”

“I mean, unnie and brother-in-law . ”

“You’re right . ”

He didn’t seriously expect the two to become a potential couple .

“How interesting . ”

Cordelia giggled and tightly hugged Jude as if he was a doll, while Jude wanted to provoke Cordelia with the word ‘double in-laws,’ but closed his eyes and enjoyed the warmth instead .

And as soon as both of them were about to fall asleep .

“Is…anyone there?”

A voice was heard along the sound of the wind .
