Chapter 82 - Chapter 13: The Right to Rule
When waking up from a deep sleep, In-gone usually had to face the ceiling or wall. However, when his eyes opened this time, the first thing he saw was long green hair that tickled his face and a beautiful face.
Green eyes blinked as In-gong stared at them sleepily. He almost screamed, but the other person was faster.
‘Master!’
Green Wind laughed and embraced In-gong. Instead of hugging Green Wind, In-gong moved his eyes. Beyond Green Wind’s hair, he saw an expensive looking ceiling.
‘And...’
In-gong tried to breathe and think while Green Wind covered his body.He lifted his free left hand and patted Green Wind’s back as he was about to speak.
‘Wait.’
There was something strange. Only his left hand was free. In-gong had no problems staring at his right side because Green Wind was hugging his left. He turned his head to the right and raised his upper body.
”Master, are you okay now? Have strength.”
Green Wind was in an actualized state, so she had weight. There were some questions about the conservation of mass, but In-gong had other worries at the moment. Instead of digging deeper, he glanced at Caitlin who was holding onto In-gong’s right hand.
Expensive-looking ceiling and room... and a huge bed.
In-gong was dressed in clothes that were easy to peel off and so was Caitlin who was lying beside him.
After carefully untangling his hands from Caitlin’s, In-gong looked back at Green Wind sitting on his thigh.
”Explain.”
Green Wind quickly nodded at his request.
”This is the lycanthropes’ palace. Master has been bedridden for four days.”
“Four days?”
“Four days. I have been looking after you for four days. Staring blankly is one of my specialities.”
Green Wind said with a laugh. In-gong now knew why Green Wind was staring at him. It was because Green Wind had been lonely.
In-gong hugged Green Wind very tightly. Green Wind made a sound but was faithful to her usual instincts when being praised.
”Umm, I don’t know why but I feel good. Continue.”
In-gong smiled at Green Wind and pushed her out of his arms slightly. He patted her head and said,
”Please continue explaining to me.”
”I understand. As I said, this is the lycanthrope palace. The reason why Master and Caitlin are lying on one bed is to increase the healing effect of both of you.”
”Healing effect?”
It was surprised by the unexpected story. Green Wind pulled back and looked In-gong up and down.
”How much does Master remember?”
“Uh... Gerard ran away?”
In-gong closed his eyes and searched through his memories. He remembered that Gerard had lost his shoulder to Lightning.
'Carack caught me and Green Wind protected me.’
Then his memories became confusing. He seemed to recall Felicia’s crying face, but he couldn’t remember it properly.
Green Wind said,
”Felicia gave Moonlight Extract to Master and Caitlin. As Chris ordered, she split it into two and something unexpected happened to Master and Caitlin’s body due to the Moonlight Extract.”
In-gong quickly activated the status window and skills window. Not long after, he was able to capture the changes in the skills window.
[Protagonist Body]
[Special Passive Skill: Moonlight Core]
'Second... aura heart?’
He closed his eyes. He realized that he could feel a moonlight core deep in his chest. His flow of aura was now different from before.
In Knight Saga, the Moonlight Extract was a miraculous herb that could revive someone if they had a single breath left. That alone was awesome, but there was another effect?
In-gong focused his attention on the flow of aura for a while. Although there were two starting points, his aura didn’t seem that different. Both flows became one during the cycle. It seemed to create a much faster and stronger flow than before.
‘Dual cores?’
Was it like a two engine jet fighter?
That wasn’t the only mysterious point. The nature of his aura had changed somewhat. To be precise, a new strength had been added to his aura.
It wasn’t unfamiliar. In fact, it was a familiar aura.
In-gong turned to Caitlin while Green Wind opened her mouth again,
”After eating the Moonlight Extract, Master and Caitlin were caught in a big light and exchanged life force. Just like Master and I, Master and Caitlin are also connected. Of course, it isn’t quite like me.”
In-gong nodded inadvertently. He definitely felt Caitlin in his aura and In-gong felt himself in Caitlin.
”Chris said that the closer the two of you were, the more vitality would be activated. If you hold her hand again, you will know.”
There was no reason not to, so In-gong grabbed Caitlin’s hand and he could see what Green Wind had said was true.
“Ohh.”
He noticed it the moment he touched her hand. It wasn’t just a simple feeling but a reaction. The flow of aura from the Moonlight Core became stronger like it had been influenced.
Chris seemed to know this which was why he had laid In-gong and Caitlin on the same bed.
“The others? Was anybody else injured?”
He gently lay down his hand, which was holding Caitlin's, to make it more comfortable. Green Wind shook her head.
“No. Master and Caitlin were the most badly injured. Chris is already up and limping around. Felicia cried a lot, but she wasn’t hurt.”
”I'm glad.”
He didn’t need to ask about Carack, Daphne, Karma and Delia.
Conquest Knight.
Famine Knight.
In-gong was reminded of Conquest, the white woman. She had said that In-gong was her only hope.
Had she been the one who brought In-gong to this world? Why had she picked In-gong? What was she looking for?
Of course, he didn’t feel that resentful. If the white woman had really called him to this world, there would be many reasons. So, he didn’t mind that much.
However, he put that on hold. He couldn’t talk properly with the white woman, so it was useless to worry about it now.
'In a sense, it is also cool.’
There was a reason.
One day, he had opened his eyes in a game or game-like world. There had been a reason for In-gong to enter the world of Knight Saga.
Yet, he didn’t know that reason yet. However, that didn’t change the thought in his head that it was slightly cool.
‘And...’
In-gong turned his gaze back to Caitlin. Although her complexion was a little pale, her face was very calm. The flow of aura he could feel through his hands was very smooth.
Things were changing after In-gong came into his world.
In-gong was going to stop the Day of Massacre. Of course, the biggest reason was In-gong’s survival but that wasn’t all.
After getting to know Chris and Caitlin, he wanted to prevent the lycanthrope subjugation. However, by blocking the Day of Massacre, he would also save Felicia and Daphne.
It was a story separate from the white woman, Conquest, War, Death and Famine. This was this and that was that.
In-gong didn’t intend to allow the tragedy from Knight Saga to replay in the Demon World.
‘The conclusion is the same.’
