Chapter 341 – Creation of Kynee (1)
Team: HH, Yahiko, thursdays (9/10)
“… . . Iron Lion Clan . ”
“… . . Are you allies or enemies?”
Creutz could see a group of defeated soldiers while he and the Illusion Knightage soared through the sky of the 20th stage .
The group of soldiers was filled with injured people . All their armor was crushed, and the players were barely moving, leaning on each other .
He had already seen many like them, so he was just about to pass by when… . .
Creutz saw a flag flailing lifelessly in the wind above them .
The greatest mercenary group, the Iron Lion Clan, looked like a mess .
It was hard, even for the Illusion Knightage, to fight against them . If their leader, Iron Lion, wasn’t a mercenary, they would have been considered one of the new emerging clans a long while ago .
But they were in such a pathetic state .
Considering how they brought along many of their players, it seemed that about 80% of them had disappeared . It was near-total destruction .
The Iron Lion Ivan looked at Creutz with sharp eyes . He acted as if he was about to raise his sword .
Creutz swallowed . It seemed that an injured beast was still a beast . Ivan’s murderous Aura wasn’t normal .
‘No . Is he just more sensitive because he’s that hurt?’
Then there was no need to touch him .
Ivan was a sunbae he admired, so Creutz replied politely .
“We would’ve met as enemies, but it seems there is no need to fight . ”
Ivan curved a corner of his mouth .
“I did hear rumors that the Illusion Knightage is attempting to recruit the Hoarder . I guess they were true?”
“I don’t think there’s any reason for us to explain ourselves . ”
Creutz replied firmly . It was the attitude of someone who was always polite .
“Alright . Then I don’t have anything to say either . However, keep this in mind . ”
Looking at Creutz, Ivan growled with sharp eyes .
“Next time, you’ll be my prey too . ”
Hwaaak—
A fierce fighting aura spread from him .
He had the eyes of a predator looking at something that invaded his territory .
However, Creutz also had experience on the battlefield although it might not have amounted to Ivan’s . That kind of threat was nothing . But there was something he was curious about .
“Don’t you feel cringy when you talk like that?”
“Anyways, I understand your stance . I’ll deliver what you said to our Regiment Leader . ”
Ivan frowned, dissatisfied, and was about to shout something when… . .
Krrrrng—
Far away on the mountains, there was a large explosion . The sky was turning yellow .
“Looks like something happened . I must be on my way . Goodbye . ”
Creutz pulled the reins of his Flying Dragon and began to fly again . The Illusion Knightage followed right behind him .
The hundreds of wyverns flying together in the sky was a sight to see .
Ivan ground his teeth looking at them and urged his subordinates again .
“We… . . shall also quickly return to base . ”
When Creutz arrived at the Five Mountains of Penances, he was greeted with destroyed mountains that could hardly be called a place for training and Yeon-woo, who was fainting while exuding powerful holy power .
『Cain!』
『Hey! Wake up!』
Victoria and the Ice King frantically ran towards Yeon-woo . Kahn didn’t know what to do while he was holding Doyle .
Creutz jumped down to the ground without landing his dragon .
『It’s dangerous if things go wrong . Please move aside for a moment . 』
Victoria’s face stiffened at Creutz’s sudden interference .
The Ice King burst up and blocked Creutz . A cold aura swirled around him .
They were wary of Creutz and the knights he brought . They could be a party of the alliance that was after Kahn .
『What is the Illusion Knightage, no, the Fantasy Regiment doing here?』
『It seems like there’s a misunderstanding, but we’re not from the alliance . Our Regiment Leader is friends with the Hoarder . Haven’t you heard?』
『The Regiment Leader and Cain?』
Of course they hadn’t heard about it . Yeon-woo never spoke about his personal life to others . As the Ice King looked at Creutz with more suspicion, he became frustrated .
『I’ll explain the details later . However, time is of the essence right now . The sickness of the Hoarder seems to be a holy fever, and if it’s not treated right away, he’ll be in danger! Please step aside!』
Creutz’s face hardened when he saw Yeon-woo’s fever . The sparks flinging from Yeon-woo’s body became worse, and it was hard for even Victoria to approach him . The heat exuding from his body was so intense that his body turned red .
Not knowing what to do, Victoria shook her head . It was beyond her capabilities .
The Ice King recalled his aura and stepped aside .
Creutz quickly ran to Yeon-woo and began to examine him .
『Oh, dear . Has it already gone to his magic power source… . . ?!』
The price for accepting over 900 Authorities at once was too high .
Authorities weren’t simple like skills were . Accepting an Authority meant accepting the will of a god into your body .
It was difficult to have just one, but hundreds? It was something that a mere mortal should never do . It was a wonder how his soul wasn’t crushed .
If Yeon-woo hadn’t increased his potential by swallowing the Monkey King’s shedding, he would never have been able to attempt it .
He had succeeded in taking the Authorities, but some aftereffects still remained .

Something remained where the gods had touched him and left . All the remnants collided, and his body had overheated .
The holy fever from his body was reaching his internal organs and even his magic power organ .
If his fever wasn’t reduced soon, he could lose his magic power or worse .
Creutz pulled out his holy sword Zulfikar and planted it in the ground . Kissing the stone in the middle, he closed his eyes and recited a spell . The stone shined a yellow light and turned into amber .
Amber was a symbol of health . As divine power descended upon Yeon-woo’s body, the heat began to settle down .
The Ice King and Victoria looked on with surprised eyes .
『What…… did you do? His fever is subsiding . 』
The Ice King had attempted to use his energy to cool Yeon-woo down, and Victoria had attempted healing magic as well .
However, Yeon-woo’s heat just became worse . But it was shocking that he was getting better with such an interesting power .
『It seems like divine power . 』
Victoria replied instead as she examined it .
『Divine power?』
『Yes . Divine power . It’s good for self-recovery and vitality . And it’s the direct opposite of demonic energy . 』
『Is it like holy power?』
『It’s similar, but the concept is a bit different . Holy power is something that must be given by gods, but divine power is a radiating power . It’s like how demonic energy and monstrous energy seem similar but are different . 』
The Ice King smiled bitterly .
『I’m even more confused . 』
As a martial artist, the only power he knew well about was magic power . The fundamental strength that advanced martial arts .
『Details about power are what magicians or alchemists deal with . However, it’s rare to see an item with divine power… . . how interesting . 』
Victoria thought of the artifacts in Anastasia’s storage room . They had monstrous energy and could turn into monsters at any moment .
However, the holy sword Zulfikar was the direct opposite of them . What kind of face would Anastasia make if she saw his sword?
『I’ve extinguished the fire . 』
Just then, Creutz took his hands off of Yeon-woo and turned back to where the Ice King and Victoria were .
『However, the holy fever hasn’t disappeared completely . He needs somewhere to rest and recover . Do you know any superior healers?』
Victoria thought of Yeon-woo’s subordinate, Boo, first . Since he wasn’t the owner but could use Adamantine Nova, wouldn’t he be able to do it? However, from some time ago, he wasn’t appearing . Was the damage he received from the head bishop too great?
Another person flashed through her mind . Anastasia . Wouldn’t her teacher, who had mastered all kinds of spells for a thousand years, be able to do something?
Kahn signaled that Doyle’s temporary treatment was finished . Doyle looked as if he was comfortably sleeping .
『Please follow me . 』
Victoria took the lead .
“……If I read my fortune this year, I think it would have said ‘you’ll have trouble because of your disciple . ’”
Anastasia wrinkled her forehead and breathed in from her pipe .

Wanting to relieve some stress, she had been spending some time with the beautiful children when her disciple suddenly burst in the room .
She urged her to heal the guy she didn’t even want to see anymore and some strange-looking bum .
Anastasia wanted to tell her to f*** off, but… . .
“Seseungnim . ”
Seeing her disciple kneeling, she couldn’t do that . Even though she was pathetic, she was still her disciple .
“Please do this favor for me . ”
“What right do you have to… . . ?!”
“I’ll pay the price . ”
Freesia, who was quietly watching the situation, spoke up . She was still lounging around Anastasia, not returning to By the Table .
Anastasia narrowed her eyes .
“Do you know what that means?”
“Trust is crucial to a merchant . ”
“Hmph! I think you broke that rule once . But whatever . ”
Anastasia snorted and held out her hand to Victoria .
“Hand it over . ”
Victoria gave her the Adamantine Nova without any resistance .
Anastasia frowned, seeing the contract that was still engraved on the Adamantine Nova .
Normally, it would take months to release it, but… . .
Swipe—
When she rubbed it with her lands, a layer of it was cut off, and the contract naturally disappeared with it . She had forced it off .
Urrrrng!
The Adamantine Nova shined with a blue light after receiving monstrous energy from Anastasia . A light incomparable to when Victoria used it flashed, and it began to rotate .
Hwaaaaa—
White light descended to the floor where Yeon-woo and Doyle were lying down .
Anastasia bit her pipe and watched what happened . Smoke filled the room .
Kahn bowed to Freesia .
“Thank… . . ”
“There’s no need to thank me . Like you, Cain is an important person we sponsor . If something goes wrong with him, we’ll suffer great losses . And we’ve been watching Foxy Tail for some time, so you can just think of it as an investment . ”
Anastasia scoffed from next to her .
“Hmph . I’m doing all the work, but you’re taking all the rewards . ”
“That’s why one’s popularity is important . ”
Freesia shot back a lesson to Anastasia and smiled bitterly at Kahn .

“And we erred on some things too . ”
Kahn looked at her with a questioning face, but Freesia didn’t say anything . She just smiled faintly .
Just then .
“Mmmm . ”
Doyle began to rustle around .
Kahn quickly ran to him .
Anatasia added an explanation .
“I don’t know what happened, but his soul was in a state of suspended animation for quite a while, so he’s weak . I’ll look for a way for him to recover, so keep that in mind . ”
“How long will it take for him to open his eyes?”
“Hmph . If I knew that, I’d be a god; do you think I’d be playing around here in the middle of nowhere?”
“Seseungnim!”
Victoria shouted with a red face . Anastasia replied with an annoyed voice .
“Five days at the most . Two days at the least . ”
Then, she left the room .
Kahn thanked Anastasia as well and tightly held onto Doyle’s hand as if telling him to hang in there .
Victoria had said that it was a miracle Doyle was alive and that it was a wonder how his soul wasn’t crushed or kicked out of his body when the head bishop’s large soul was in it .
However, Kahn realized that was what Doyle had been aiming for .
Foxy Tail . Like a fox, Doyle was extremely smart from a young age . He might’ve been preparing for it since he was chosen to become the head bishop’s vessel . He must’ve believed that someday, someone would rescue him .
Wasn’t that an indicator of how much he trusted his brother?
‘Defeat it . No matter what . ’
That was all Kahn could say to Doyle .
Then, he looked at Yeon-woo, who was laying down next to Doyle . Kahn’s eyes were shaking while he saw the heat around Yeon-woo .
“You wake up too . Then I’ll decide to be your servant or not . ”
Like how I found my brother, you should find yours . ’
That was what he wanted to say .
