I Have Come To End This Fight

Episode 32. granularity (1)

The source of the sound of the horn was a black sailboat moored on the far shore.

‘That’s… … ?’

Even from a distance, the sailboat, whose hull and sails were all black, was unusual in size.

And at the same time as the trumpet sounded, many people began to gather around it.

“It’s finally open!”

“Hurry!”

The dockside quickly became busy.

As Yuri stood blankly observing this, a voice came from behind him.

“Are you awake?”

As soon as he heard the old voice, Yuri’s swollen face felt sore.

When I turned my head, there was John drinking from the bottle.

round shape-.

“Ha ha! Feel so good.”

“… Were you excited about turning people into rags?”

“Have a knife in front of me and set it aside, and consider it fortunate that it ended that way. If it was someone else, I would have been fighting with my ancestors right away.”

“Ugh… … .”

Yohan gulped down his drink once more, taking advantage of Yuri’s trembling as a snack.

He said, stealing the drops of red wine that flowed from his mouth.

“Follow me.”

“Where?”

“Wherever, are you not going to the cradle?”

Saying that, John’s gaze landed on the black sailboat.

At this, Yuri narrowed her eyes and asked.

“I hope that… Is it a ship going to the cradle? Reserve riders ride?”

“Then, did those humans have nothing to do, so they crowded around like a swarm of ants?”

Johann pointed at the crowds gathered to board the black sailboat with his chin.

At this, Yuri let out a sigh of relief.

‘Whoa… thank god. It’s not too late.’

Even if I was a little late, I almost couldn’t get on the boat.

While Yuri praised himself for miraculously opening his eyes on time, Yohan trudged toward the sailboat.

Not wanting to miss Yohan, Yuri moved quickly.

As the black sailboat gradually drew closer, the sounds of countless conversations flowed into Yuri’s ears.

“Bocchan, do your best!”

“My lady, you must be well!”

“Let’s meet in five years!”

With people waving and seeing off at the pier.

“I’ll be back!”

“I’m coming!”

From confident faces to nervous faces, each with a variety of facial expressions, even the people who climbed onto the boat.

Yuri, who had been watching the people on the boat for a while, tilted her head.

Finally, impatient, he raised his hand.

“Inspiration, ask me!”

“Suddenly, what question?”

While bruised as if he was dumbfounded, Yohan slightly slowed down his pace.

As they walked side by side at a pace beside him, Yuri stroked his chin very curiously.

“Grandpa, are all the people on that boat 50 that will go into this cradle?”

“I will.”

“Then something… Isn’t that a bit strange?”

“what?”

“From what I’ve heard, only twenty or so people come out of the cradle safely for five years, right?”

“It is not wrong. It’s about twenty at most in a year.”

“Then, who the hell are these people recommending to enter?”

Even at a cursory glance, it seemed that more than 200 people had climbed aboard the ship so far.

If you include those who haven’t climbed yet, the number of people many times that number must be the new riders of this cradle.

However, given the nature of the cradle, where only around 20 to 30 graduates came out a year from the past, it didn’t make sense that so many of them became new riders with the recommendation of Yongpae.

‘If that many people were recommended and became new riders, it would mean that all riders who have been produced for at least 10 years recommended dragon tiles this time.’

It was nonsense.

To Yuri’s question, Yohan sighed and answered.

“Tsk, it’s because you don’t even know the logic of the world.”

“huh?”

“What kind of people do you think they are?”

John stretched out his finger and pointed to those who were boarding the sailboat and seeing them off.

Yuri’s eyes scanned them quickly once more.

Men and women of all ages, those who see off people of all ages.

The reserve 50th riders, who usually look in their teens or twenties.

They were all different people, but Yuri found a general commonality just by taking a quick look at them.

The answer came out of his mouth without a second’s hesitation.

“Golden Goblin.”

“… What is it?”

Yuri narrowed her eyes at the question that flew in the opposite direction.

“Eh? Don’t you know the Golden Goblin?”

“What is that?”

“According to legend, a long time ago there was a yellow goblin who was carrying valuable treasures around. They said that if you catch one, you should sell it properly. But now, that’s what people call rich people who are easy to rob.”

“Hoo? why?”

“Even if you bump into each other on the road and lie down, or if you run into a carriage and get a rough scratch, you can get money that you can earn for several months in one shot. If you’re lucky, you’ll catch the hukou properly!”

“… … .”

Yohan is at a loss for words at Yuri’s explanation.

Slightly taken aback by his gloomy gaze, Yuri quietly turned her head and murmured.

“… A mercenary man I was close to told me.”

“… Did you too?”

“Hey! What do you look at people for? I was just listening to what the mercenary man I was close with said!”

“Is that the mercenary you were close with? Aren’t you the self-inflicted blackmail scammer you were close with?”

“Because it is not!”

Yohan was convinced by Yuri’s denial and avoidance of his gaze.

‘This bastard… I did, I did.’

What has this young bastard been doing for the past 15 years?

What kind of storms did he have to go through to be so worn out?

‘Heh heh, I made a mistake. How can this bastard not know the principles of the world!’

Yuri knew all too well.

However, it’s because it’s very thick and dark.

Yohan let out a small sigh and nodded.

“Well, the analogy was strange, but it is as you said. When you look at those kinds of things, you call them ‘things in the house’.”

“so?”

“There are two ways to enter the cradle. First, the recommendation of graduates’ dragon plaques. And secondly, a donation recommendation.”

“A donation recommendation?”

“A letter of recommendation from a certified 7th Dan or higher and a donation of 5,000 gold. That is the condition of the donation recommendation. Recommendations for donations pass right away without even taking a test.”

“Oh, five thousand gold?!”

Many people died without even seeing a piece of gold, let alone one gold in their lifetime.

How much more than 5,000 gold!

Yuri’s mouth fell open at the staggering amount.

“crazy… You mean spending that much money just to get into the cradle once?”

“Do you know what the common misunderstandings of people living in houses are?”

“What?”

“If it’s my bloodline, if it’s my offspring, aren’t they talented enough? … You think so.”

“Ohh?”

“Actually, those bastards are the ones who grew up receiving a good ‘injection education’ from a good teacher… He grows so fast that you might be mistaken for his outstanding talent.”

“… … .”

“However, the growth of such indoctrinated education tends to hit rock bottom when faced with truly talented people. Until you experience it yourself, what is your real talent… They won’t know.”

“That means you have to jump in and realize it while breaking your head.”

“Yeah, puhh. The reason why Yoram opened up the opportunity for donation recommendation is to find a real gem that might appear, and it’s just a small amount of pocket money.”

“… For pocket money, you’re sweeping away a lot of gold.”

By the time Yuri’s question was resolved.

The two were approaching the stern of a black sailboat.

I stopped there and Yohan opened his mouth with a serious face.

“Okay, here I am. Although we are parting like this now, next time… … .”

“yea, I got it. See you later.”

Before John could finish his words, Yuri waved her hand and moved forward.

Yohan, who was holding the mood, grabbed Yuri’s shoulder with a puzzled face.

“Hey, this guy. Still, we have a bond that has been together for over half a year, but shouldn’t we part ways pretending to regret it even if it’s flea pee!”

What returned to Yohan’s scolding was Yuri’s voice, which was sullen and bitter.

“what? Couldn’t a human flying in the sky hide in an island?”

“… … .”

“Aren’t you letting me into the cradle in the first place because you have the confidence to come in and out without even being noticed?”

“… … .”

“If Younggam-taeng’s personality is obvious, he will definitely come in and out and harass me. What are you missing?”

Every phrase was correct, so John was at a loss for words.

Yu-ri snorts and walks away.

In an instant, as if he had realized something, he hit the left palm with his right fist.

“Oh right! Inspiration, do you have any information that is essential for cradle life as a senior in the 2nd class?”

“… There is no such thing.”

Yuri smirked at John’s withered voice.

“What, are you mad? Shall I pretend to be sorry for now?”

“What the hell is this bastard looking at me for?!”

“A mischievous old man who failed because he tried to create an emotional atmosphere.”

“Jjjomsaeng?”

“If you’re not a jjomsaeng, blow on some information you know.”

shaking.

He wanted to hit him right away, but he felt like he would really become a moth if he used his fist here, so he was patient.

He let out a long sigh and replied.

“Whoa… I want to tell you, but I have nothing to tell you. Have you ever heard of the circumstances inside the cradle in your life?”

Yuri pondered at Yohan’s question.

‘It’s an internal situation… … .’

Dragon’s Cradle is such a great place!

… I’ve heard that a lot, though.

“… Didn’t you think about it?”

I had never heard of what was going on inside.

At Yuri’s answer, Yohan nodded.

“Do you think that is just like that?”

“then?”

“Cradle graduates make a secret oath upon graduation. I will not tell you what happened in the 5 years at the cradle.”

“What if I speak up? How do they know who said it?”

“You guys try it later. You will be able to feel the level of information power of the world’s best cradle. In addition, you will learn why the Black Swordsman’s Slayers are called devils.”

“… … .”

“And you bastard, I am Cradle 2. You guys are 50! It’s been 48 years, how can I know what has changed in that time!”

“So is he.”

“So don’t think about cheating and don’t forget what I said.”

“What was your inspiration?”

“Your earrings!”

“Oh, don’t take off your earrings? okay! I must have heard that about ninety-nine times.”

“Then let’s lift it up one more time and fill it up a hundred times. your earrings… … .”

“Yeah, so you’re saying that you should never think about subtracting until the cohesion of the mana core in my body exceeds the cohesion of the core in the spirit blood? If I did that, I couldn’t turn the mana rod?”

“If there comes a situation where you have to take it out because you can’t avoid it, keep it well so you don’t lose it. I will put it back in later.”

“Why don’t you tell me how to do it? What kind of earrings do you need inspiration to put on and take off?”

“You bastard, if it were an ordinary earring, how would you patch up your spirit blood with a hole in it? There’s a correct way to make the earrings work, and you can’t tell me, so don’t talk nonsense and do what you’re told.”

“Yes, I understand.”

Seeing Yuri nodded casually, Yohan frowned slightly.

‘Even if this bastard is worried!’

Woo-woo-.

When the sound of the horn calling for boarding sounded again, the corners of John’s mouth twisted insiniously.

“Oh, and that.”

“What else? Are you telling me to get on now? If you have something to say, say it quickly, old man.”

Yuri became a little nervous seeing the number of people on board getting smaller and smaller.

John’s low voice flowed into his ears as he flinched as if he was about to run.

“You, do you know exactly what that shari is?”

Yuri answered Yohan’s question as if it was not a big deal.

“Shari? Aren’t they jewels?”

“You sound like a jewel.”

“Then what is it?”

Yuri still walks, looking straight ahead as if he is not very interested.

At the round back of his head, Yohan sent a sinister smile again and opened his mouth.
