Chapter 273 The Hoarder (13) (2/2)

[Anubis is watching you.]

[Giltine is satisfied.]

[Ankou claps.]

[The gods and demons who have the power of death are amazed by you.]

[You received a powerful Blessing.]

Yeon-woo got rid of the messages that kept on popping up.

The messages that he had been getting from the 26th floor told him that all the gods and demons related to death were paying attention to him.

They were offering apostle positions and even directly giving him Blessings now.

[Azrael is glad!]

[Azrael strengthens  the ‘3rd Spirit’ with his power. You can do more things with it now.]

[Azrael awaits your choice.]

Azrael pretty much seemed to consider Yeon-woo his apostle now.

He was the most proactive out of all the gods related to death, but it was also probably because one of the four Authorities that Yeon-woo had chosen was his.

The proficiency that was highest was the 3rd Spirit.

Azrael’s influence over Yeon-woo became larger, and he was happy at the jealousy of the other gods and demons.

‘I see it’s true that he’s a god that likes to be haughty.’

Of course, there was a being that was furious too.

[A demon of ‘L’Infernal,’ Agares, is telling the other gods and demons not to be greedy for what’s his.]

[The gods and demons all ignore him.]

Most of them ignored him.

He was ranked second within L’Infernal, but after losing his power on the 23rd floor, he was nothing more than their punching bag.

Yeon-woo pulled out Vigrid. As his four Authorities activated, Vigrid trembled while emitting a white light. Yeon-woo surrounded it with black Aura.

Kwang!

The Wave of Fire covered the heads of the Predators like lightning. The atmosphere fizzed, and the river water steamed.

Tak!

Yeon-woo lightly stepped up on the quiet boat.

The boat couldn’t even be called a boat anymore with how ruined it was after all these days. He could see the Cannibal Monster Humans fixing the broken sections.

The boat really looked like a ‘ghost ship’ with all its tatters.

The players looked at him in fear. They didn’t even think about the fact that they were on the same boat as the Cannibal Monster Humans. Yeon-woo was the scariest, not the old and young beings of another species.

Of course, Yeon-woo didn’t care.

When he spread his palm open, tens of jewels poured down.

They were blue emeralds.

‘The Sea King Monster Crystal.’

It was a hidden piece on the 28th floor and could be refined into a source for magic power or holy power because it had the energy of souls.

‘It’s also something Lana likes.’

Lana loved gold and jewels according to the diary.

She liked worldly things, and she was capricious and unrestrained. Once upon a time, she was a great sea pirate along the River of Souls. Was it more accurate to say she was a great river pirate?

When I first met Lana, it was in the middle of the River of Souls. Because I had Draconic Eyes, it wasn’t that hard to find the direction, and as long as we fended off the sea monsters, it wasn’t that hard to pass the river.

Occasionally, there were pirates, but they weren’t a big deal. Then, when we were almost on land, I met her. Along with the tens of boats she brought, saying she would avenge her subordinates.

The confrontation with Lana was actually from a misunderstanding. Jeong-woo and her subordinates had been fighting in battle, and one survivor had gone to tell Lana about it.

And the result of it was…..

‘Jeong-woo’s loss.’

His brother had been greatly shocked. He was confident after his 3rd step awakening and Sky Wings that no one would be able to defeat him on this floor.

Most rankers couldn’t win against him either.

Then, he learned that it had been a while since Lana was a ranker, and she missed the River of Souls, so she had come back.

She was the ruler of the 28th floor.

While conversing with his brother, who was a prisoner, she realized that her subordinate had made a mistake and let go of Arthia and his brother herself.

She even cut the neck of the subordinate who dared to mock her.

‘Jeong-woo completely fell for that.’

His brother had completely been hooked on Lana. It was his first time seeing such an easygoing and brave woman. Vieira Dune had been jealous, but his feelings were more of respect than love.

Also, her sword and magic were so outstanding that his brother wanted to be like her.

After that, his brother had stayed on the River of Souls as long as he could to learn different skills from Lana.

Lana had been annoyed at first, but Jeong-woo followed her around like a puppy and reminded her of her little siblings, so she had taught him many things.

Their relationship continued for a long time after that.

Lana had taken his brother’s side during the war against the Eight Large Clans, and her forces had been reduced to nothing because of that, but she didn’t regret it.

There was no knowing what happened after that.

The last clue in the diary was that she was probably staying at the Quartz Palace, her home. Her whereabouts were unknown after that.

‘But I’ll probably be able to find her soon.’

Considering Lana’s personality, she wouldn’t stay still even after all that had happened. It was most likely that she was raising more forces secretly on the 28th floor.

‘And she might’ve already come back out.’

If that was the case, it was likely that she had become a pirate again. She was talented, so she probably left the clutches of the Eight Large Clans easily.

Yeon-woo wanted to have such a person in his clan. Where was she? He needed to find where the Quartz Palace was first.

Unfortunately, his brother’s diary didn’t have the exact coordinates of the Quartz Palace. It was because Lana had cast magic on it so no one could read the coordinates.

‘But that doesn’t mean there’s not a way.’

While Yeon-woo was trying to think of someone—

“I, It’s a pirate!”

A player who had been looking ahead with binoculars shouted.

Only

Yeon-woo turned to look in that direction. When he directed his magic power into his eyes, he could see something furiously speeding at him from far away.

It was a large ship with dents all over. The skull on the flag high above it showed it was a pirate ship.

A satisfied smile grew on Yeon-woo’s face.

“There it is. Our guide.”

「……So they’re the third bunch. I don’t even know anymore.」

He could hear Shanon muttering, but he just ignored it.
