Chapter 274 - The Hoarder (14) (2/2)

“But still, the hoarder needs to cross the 28th floor like we do Don’t worry too much”

“Whew! That’s true, but…”

Heidi patted Dylan’s shoulder and looked over to where Yeon-as

He was sitting on the bow of the hull, looking at the river with a still face

However, she couldn’t see what kind of expression he wasbecause of the mask

Like tihtest

‘What kind of person is he?’

Yeon-as still too hard to understand for her

She couldn’t read hi to do with all these pirates he gathered like collectibles

It seeet some information from the pirates However, he could just throw the the the the else in mind?

She tried not to think about other peoples’ businesses, but Heidi couldn’t stop herself fro about Yeon-woo

She was curious about what he was doing

‘Like he’s looking for so…’

Just then, Yeon-woo raised his hand It was a sign to stop The pirates rushed around as they let go of the sail and then dropped the anchor into the sea

『Protect the boat well』

Yeon-woo tossed a coot up Heidi was about to ask him when he meant, but……

Hwak!

Yeon-woo spread out his wings of fire and jumped down from the boat

“…!”

“T, That…!”

“Psycho!”

The crewinto the river with his wings of fire around his body

Everyone looked stunned Shock buzzed through the air

The first person to get herself together was Heidi He had ordered for her to protect the boat That , but she realized that this was all planned

If so, what she had to do was already decided

Clap!

Heidi clapped her hands together Thecrew members turned to her

Heidi spoke with serious eyes

“The hoarder will return Please stay in your positions until he does”

Krrrr!

Yeon-as sinking deep into the River of Souls

The ghosts and seaaround approached him when they discovered him, but they quickly moved away from him with fear when he used his Authority

[The 3rd Spirit]

The Authority that the God of death, Azrael, had given it to him, so it was a superior property than what they had, and with the Blessings he had continued to receive from the 28th floor, it hadcastle he could barely see through the dark water

It was a large castle that was more like a palace

It was so fancy that it reminded him of the ones in stories

That was the…

‘Quartz Palace’

Yeon-woo s at Lana’s headquarters

Who would have iined that under the River of Souls with sea s, there would be such a palace?

Most pirates just thought that the Quartz Palace was Lana’s territory; they didn’t know exactly what it was

‘Even the Eight Large Clans couldn’t find the Quartz Palace Lana used that to her advantage well If she’s gathering more forces, she’ll probably use the Quartz Palace as her headquarters’

Yeon-woo an to search using his Spirit Fa similar from the diary

This was also the reason why he had been looking at the surface of the water sitting on the bow

It was to look for the Quartz Palace Fortunately, his Spirit Familiars found the location quickly

Yeon-woo consecutively used Blink and approached the Quartz Palace He was going to meet his brother’s teacher who cherished his brother very ht still have the necklace that Jeong-woo gave her’

I gave her a present explaining that there was a Teacher Appreciation Day on Earth, and she quite liked it

I couldn’t forget the ial, overjoyed

However—

‘……Hm?’

The Quartz Palace was extremely different from what he saw in the diary

The castle that should’ve been shi+ning elegantly was broken in different places, like there had been an intense battle, and it was hard to find anywhere that was left intact

The sections that were somewhat better were quickly eroded by the river water

The barrier that protected the Blue Rose of thousands of pirates was gone

Yeon-woo became worried

He used his Wind Path to head towards the center of the Quartz Palace, the Quartz King Palace

It was set up exactly as he saw in the diary The only difference was that it was destroyed in some places and filled with river water He couldn’t find any traces of people

Then, Yeon-woo could see skeletons piled up in the hall

Like they had been trying to protect so, their heads dropped In front of them, there were skeletons that looked to be their enemies

‘Behind this is…’

Yeon-woo clenched his fist past the guards and burst open the door

A large hall revealed itself, and he could see jewels that lost their shi+ne and paintings

And in the throne at the center, one skeleton was sitting in silence With the clothes that Lana enjoyed wearing

Its bare, bony hand was gripping the necklace his brother had given her
