Chapter 126: Infinitely Deep Darkness (2)


    Arcana Continent, Top 10 Wonders.


    It was widely known what each wonder was.


    Even I, who had a gap of well over 10 years, knew about it.


    But [Top 10 Wonders Quest].


    Ive never heard of anything like this.


    It wasnt because of the gap.


    Just before.


    It was the same when [Thefern Fence] appeared.


    What??? Thefern??


    -The Top 10 Wonder have finally been solved???


    Raymond Sean, you must have finallye to your senses


    Is this the beginning of content recovery??


    Indeed.


    The Top 10 Wonders was treated aste-scale content among yers. It was understandable.


    Like Thefern, the Wonders were an unknown territory even on the Arcana continent.


    I am certain.


    I could be sure.


    This was definitely a big quest!


    Arge-scale quest that would make any yers heart flutter.


    For me, of course, there was no such thing as joy and sorrow in Grandfel.


    I perused the quest window with an unwavering gaze.


    [Top 10 Wonders Quest: Theferns Labyrinth]


    Top 10 Wonders of the Arcana Continent, Thefern.


    Dig up Theferns Labyrinth.


    Let the world know the true nature of Thefern.


    Wonders discovered so far: 0 / 10


    Witness Theferns Labyrinth. (In Progress)


    Indeed, it was a rted quest.


    If you thought about the scale, wouldnt it beparable to a world-ss quest?


    But I couldnt just be happy about it.


    It was obvious to anyone that it would boast an incredible level of difficulty.


    In the first ce, it wont be a quest that can be solved at this moment.


    I could tell that just by looking at the process in which the quest appeared before my eyes.


    It was the dark spirit that brought the wonder quest.


    That dark spirit appeared by chance. Like the [World Quest: Seed of the World Tree], it started by skipping the intermediate step.


    Is this even possible to proceed at my level?


    Thats what I thought.


    As expected, this tiring personality.


    To me,ck of ability was words that didnt exist.


    I opened my mouth shamelessly.


    I understand what you mean.


    Is that really true?


    But there is a time for everything.


    It wasnt because Icked ability.


    I didnt know if that was all, but at least quests needed time.


    This is definitely a rupture in the [Thefern Fence].


    This was the outermost part of Thefern.


    It went without saying that Theferns Labyrinth didnt exist here.


    Of course, the dark spirit seemed confused.


    But something about Thefernsndscape


    Since he didnt even know what a rupture was.


    It wouldnt be strange for him to fumble with his words.


    I spoke as if admonishing the concerned dark spirit.


    There is nothing for you to worry about.


    ?


    Because I know the time.


    !


    I shall find you when the time is right.


    Although I spoke grandiosely.


    I simply said what was in my mind.


    Considering the goal of the quest, if [Theferns Labyrinth] rupture appeared, I should be able to do something, right? But perhaps because I said it in an elegant way. The words came out unusual.


    You will find me like this? Is that what you mean? Then I understand.


    His voice sounded somewhat agitated.


    There was also a brief remark that was truly unusual.


    Infinitely Deep Darkness. I will await your call.


    Seriously.


    It was an unusual nickname.


    Lets appreciate the setting of Grandfel for this moment.


    Otherwise, my cheeks would have turned red out of embarrassment and I might have exploded


    Anyway, I have to be sure about everything.


    The [Top 10 Wonders Quest] that I traded with my embarrassment.


    Regardless of the level of difficulty, I didnt n on giving up on it.


    In that case, my priority would be to build a bridge to reunite with the dark spirit.


    Haiel.


    The mirror that would fulfill that role for me


    Haiel.


    I sent a telepathic message to Haiel.


    Haiel bowed straight away.


    Ill do as you say.


    The dark spirit.


    Even fellow spirits seemed wary of the miscenous energy.


    I could understand just by looking at the reaction of the mages contract spirits.


    Except for Peiyans high-ranking spirit Fire Drake


    All of them clearly looked intimidated.


    On the other hand, Haiel was fine.


    More than just fine, there was no movement in that elegant figure.


    It was great to be reborn as a {unique spirit}.


    Shameless No, youre reliable, Haiel.


    I addedst.


    Lets end the unnecessarymotion here.


    Did he understand what I meant right away?


    The dark spirit answered.


    I will follow your words.


    At the same time.


    Sss


    Like a lie, the dark spirit that began to disperse.


    There was amotion from the spectators.


    I-Its starting to disappear?


    What on earth did they talk about?


    I think I heard a little bit. It was definitely about Theferns Labyrinth!


    Is it a quest?


    Amidst themotion.


    The dark spirit called me for thest time.


    And Ill wait. Infinitely Deep Darkness.


    I didnt want to hear him say that.


    Eyes focused on me in an instant.


    Seeing the crowd buzzing made it feel real.


    Me, the Infinitely Deep Darkness.


    The whole world had heard that.


    Putting aside this iron face.


    Lee Hoyeols mental strength couldnt endure it any longer.


    I looked at Peiyan and said.


    I aming back.


    Yes? Oh, yes! Chief Lee Hoyeol!


    Peiyan replied in a tense voice.


    I stepped out of the rupture and thought seriously.


    Suffering from mana exhaustion would be better than this.


    *


    [Thefern Fence].


    Who would have thought?


    Rmended level 450.


    Who would have thought that what happened in such an ordinary rupture would be a hot topic.


    Nettube showed the most explosive response.


    Sss


    A dark spirit that appeared in the air.


    Its figure alone made viewers feel intimidated.


    The urgent voice in the video doubled the vivid atmosphere.


    -A-An appearance message has even appeared! Its a dark spirit.


    Soon, the moment the dark spirit fully revealed itself.


    There was Hoyeol standing in front of it.


    Union, Shining.


    Even the mages of the Mage Tower who entered the rupture with Hoyeol.


    The dark spirit made everyone who entered the rupture felt nervous.


    -W-Wait. I think hes too close?!


    But even in front of such a being, Hoyeol didnt back down.


    With the usual posture.


    Upright as always.


    He faced the dark spirit.


    And at that point.


    The line that heated up the world followed.


    -I obey you. Infinitely Deep Darkness.


    Not only he subdued the spirit.


    He was even called Infinitely Deep Darkness.


    Naturally, the world couldnt help but turn upside down.


    Its just crazy


    Infinitely Deep Darkness Thats sick


    Doesnt it feel amazing just listening to it?


    Rox didnt just say empty words??


    Infinitely Deep Darkness.


    As if they had caught a big clue from that title.


    The media also gathered experts and held discussions.


    So the infinitely deep darkness may be a term rted to the ss. Is that what youre saying?


    Thats right. Theres no evidence more solid than this. There were only spections and hoax floating around in themunity.


    Expert-nim, please refrain from non-standard words


    No, is this time to question that? This isnt just another yer, we got a clue about yer Hoyeols ss!


    When they saw that he subdued the ck spirit.


    As they expected, it was clearly a ss rted to ck magic.


    Some people spected that way.


    I think its a hidden ss.


    Hidden ss?


    Thats right. The skills that yer Lee Hoyeol has shown so far do not make sense if you think about the ss rted to ck magic. He even showed excellent swordsmanship.


    As you said, he used a variety of skills naturally when dealing with Thefern Scarecrow.


    Thats why I think this way.


    Hidden ss, infinitely deep darkness.


    That might be Hoyeols ss.


    Shinings base camp.


    The sound of the TV was ring loudly.


    Dmitry shouted in a louder voice.


    Isnt that seriously too much?!


    Not only he had subdued the dark spirit.


    What, hidden ss?


    And the name of the ss was infinitely deep darkness?


    So unlucky. Hes the only one whos cool!!


    Dmitry wasnt the only one venting his anger.


    Yusra Kingdom.


    Golden Calf Tavern.


    Gaaah! Damn it


    Gulp gulp


    Steadily swallowing down alcohol.


    Lakid, who rarely got drunk, stumbled because of his drunkenness.


    Drunk Lakid said in a slurred voice.


    Ugh. Iiiinfitely deep darkneeeess?


    Lakids drunk act had its own story.


    Before joining the Shadow Mercenary Corps.


    Be it fame or notoriety.


    Lakid had made a name for himself.


    He recalled the titles that followed him.


    Ouw of the Colosseum.


    Yeah, that was fine.


    However, he was also a man whose brain was all muscle.


    Later on, it became an ogre wearing a human mask.


    Of course, no one had spoken of those nicknames yet.


    They were forced to keep their mouth shut.


    He had made it forgotten like that.


    Thats why Lakid was jealous of Hoyeol.


    Do I have title that sounds like that? Ugh, so, so unlucky


    Thud!


    Peace came to the bar only after the drunk Lakid fell on the table. Snore As soon as Lakid started snoring, some people finally opened their mouths.


    I didnt expect such a big incident to happen in Thefern.


    They were the group from the League of Explorers.


    Among them was Park Hwigang.


    Park Hwigang opened his mouth carefully.


    The League hasnt fdiscovered anything about Thefern, right?


    Yes. At most, they just hang around the fence. The monsters thate out of Thefern are no joke. You cant evenpare it to the scarecrow.


    As expected, its not the Top 10 Wonders for no reason!


    The first essential virtue for a Nettuber yer was wit.


    Park Hwigang made a conversation and chimed in.


    This position didnte easily.


    Top explorers of the League of Explorers !


    Regardless of whether they were yers or Arcanains, they were all famous as explorers.


    Normally, it would have been difficult for them to even gather in one ce.


    If you think about it, isnt this also thanks to Hoyeol-nim?


    Park Hwigang didnt forget his debt to Hoyeol.


    The reason he was able to work as a Nettuber yer until now was because he had an achievement that wasnt actually his, which was to be the first to broadcast Hoyeols appearance.


    I came on a pilgrimage to a holy ce.


    Isnt this the broadcast channel where Lee Hoyeol was first broadcasted??


    Uh-huh, be polite. Its Hoyeol-nim, not Lee Hoyeol


    Its just Homen


    Homen.


    The word Homen, which definitely would make Hoyeol faint if he found out, was also used for the first time on his broadcast.


    So, Park Hwigang didnt want to miss this opportunity.


    Its called Theferns Labyrinth He must have received a quest rted to Thefern.


    Park Hwigang didnt doubt Hoyeols ability.


    Whatever quest it was, he was certain Hoyeol couldplete it with ease.


    Just like when he had oppressed the demon kings.


    However, Thefern, one of the Ten Wonders, had a slightly different approach.


    The story of the explorers continued.


    But a wonder is not a wonder for no reason.


    First of all, there are too many risks, right?


    Honestly, if yer Lee Hoyeol hadnt stepped forward to deal with the dark spirit


    Wouldnt it be great if there was a clear reward like the Yusra Inds, which were called treasure inds? Even if you uncover the mystery, you never know whats waiting for you.


    Above all, it was abyrinth.


    Naturally, it had traps.


    Andplex structures as well.


    There was a reason why the League of Explorers hadnt uncovered it.


    Entering the Theferns Labyrinth without an explorer?


    Regardless of your ability, it was obvious that you would suffer from the tiring work.


    Of course, the explorers themselves knew that.


    The mood turned negative.


    But Park Hwigang, just like his name, was persistent.


    Youre right. A wonder is not called a wonder for no reason. But something is different. Hoyeol-nim also has a purpose regarding Thefern.


    !


    At those words, The explorers paused.


    Among the League of Explorers, they were among the highest level.


    If they seeded in exploring Thefern, one of the 10 Wonders?


    In the next leagues president election, I can win a high number of votes!


    With those experience points. My level may go up several levels.


    Wait a minute, isnt this an easy opportunity?!


    nces were exchanged between each other in silence.


    Park Hwigang smiled inside.


    Hoyeol-nim, who oppressed three demon kings. I dont think you can find a backup force stronger than that


    Finally, he droved a wedge.


    Even if we cant use this, with the level of the league, shouldnt we take an action?


    *


    Yusra Kingdom.


    My office that I hadnt visited in a long time.


    I found a letter lying on the desk.


    What kind of paper is this bright?


    Is it decorated with gold leaf?


    I checked the correspondence.


    Excellent quality. But its not practical.


    My aesthetic sense and integrity shed.


    But the internal conflict was just the beginning.


    From the beginning of the letter, I was already shocked.


    Dear Infinitely Deep Darkness.


    I dont know who it is, but this is clearly a trick to screw me over!


    Is it from No.3, my nemesis, Lee Yerim?


    No, she would send it through a text message. She wouldnt do this.


    The embarrassment that I had been barely suppressing boiled over.


    I wanted to tear the letter apart at once.


    !


    After checking the sender, I couldnt do that.


    President of the League of Explorers, Fabian Delon


    League of Explorers.


    I could guess why they sent me a letter.


    So I recited as calmly as possible.


    I will review your proposal ording to the procedure.


    Of course.


    Even if I took into ount the fact that he had called me Infinitely Deep Darkness.


    I would be as fair as possible.
