Chapter 273: Juyoung Hong (5)

Among them was one who felt very displeased with the real identity of Asirante.

He was Chairman Daeyoung Suh of the Daeyu Guild, who had first approached Asirante and succeeded in getting him to join the Daeyu Guild.

He gnashed his teeth.

Of course, after realizing that the Daeyu Guild was too small to embrace Asirante, he eventually gave up on having Asirante in the Daeyu Guild. He had no choice but to gnash his teeth after investing so much in Asirante. He knew and had met Asirante face to face several times, so he grew even more angry.

However, Chairman Suh felt his anger gradually going away when he started to reflect on whether he had ever made Asirante feel sorry or disappointed him, before feeling frustrated with the fact that he had played into Asirante’s hands and was completely duped.

Recalling the old Asirante, Chairman Suh noticed something different in his looks.

“Asirante, or Juyoung’s hair seems to have been tinted, right?” Obviously he had black hair when the chairman first met him. But right now, Asirante’s black hair seemed to have been tinted for some reason.

“Yes, it looks like his hair has been tinted, like you said,” Director Chungsoo Kim of the Daeyu Guild’s Strategy Department immediately responded.

In fact, Juyoung’s hair was turning white like ice so quickly that anyone would notice it right away.

In front of the Myungjin Shelter…

Obviously, there might be somebody who would make light of my fight with Smith’s party, but it was very important to me.

Anyway, I was close to beating Smith’s party resoundingly by using Blink with zero cooldown.

I felt resentful when Smith said this fight was unfair, even though he picked the fight with me first.

As a matter of fact, I wanted to make my first debut as Juyoung Hong as an ice-type wizard, instead of using Blink. I wanted to use Blizzard and Ice Tornado against him right now.

I wanted to use those skills to make him and his party realize painfully how foolish they were.

But I could not use them now, which really annoyed me.

The moment I was extremely annoyed, the ground shook around me suddenly.

Kugugugugugung-

At the same time a lot of things thrust forth from the ground.

They were as thick as trees more than a hundred or a thousand years old. Moreover, it wasn’t just one or two of them. They soon revealed themselves as things big and wide enough to cover the sky.

Of course, I instinctively knew what they were: roots!

Smith waved his hands at me, but I didn’t care.

***

Inside the Myeongjin Shelter.

“…”

Although my mother was very worried, my father Chairman Sangman Hong didn’t block the fight. He was convinced that his youngest son Juyoung would beat Smith’s party, after all.

If he had judged that I had even a one percent chance of losing to them, he would not have let me go and fight them.

He knew that even if I ran away from the fight and was named a coward, I would be much stronger once I achieved level 1200. Even if he was humiliated a bit for a time, he didn’t care at all.

Of course, my father had prepared a hidden card despite his conviction that I would win.

Although I had some hard times in the initial stage of the fight, he let out a sigh of relief after seeing that I had turned the tide of the battle by using Blink with zero cooldown. As my father, it was natural that Chairman Hong was worried about my safety despite his firm conviction that his son would win.

In the meantime, something beyond description had appeared.

Kuohohohoh…

My family members and Director Sok began to whisper at that. “Tentacles?”

“Aren’t they squid or octopus limbs?”

“No way! Look at that gigantic size of its body. It looks like a kraken, a monster that sinks huge ships.”

The things looked a little like kraken limbs on the surface.

However, Chairman Hong instinctively felt that they were not.

The moment Chairman Hong raised his head a bit, somebody said, “They look more like roots…”

“Moreover, they came out from underground at the beginning,” added Director Sok.

Chairman Hong was more convinced they were roots. They looked like was closer to roots than tentacles, like squid or octopus limbs.

However, they were too thick and large to be considered normal roots.

Since they had appeared so unexpectedly, Chairman Hong was momentarily not sure whether they belonged to his son Juyoung or Smith’s party. Not just Chairman Hong, but also everyone at the Shelter eventually realized who they belonged to, namely Juyoung!

Why? Because they had appeared in the past at the moment when Juyoung’s normally black hair became white as snow. Moreover, when compared toJuyoung who showed little reaction to the appearance of the roots, Smith and his party were clearly flustered, turning their eyes in all directions.

At that moment Chairman Hong recalled a scene from the past. His late father used to dote on Juyoung more than his elder brother Kiyoung or sister Suyoung. So, he had asked his father why he loved Juyoung so much when Kiyoung was just as good as Juyoung.

His later father had replied, “Haha. Look at his face! Doesn’t it shine brightly like the moon? He’s going to be a great man!”

He could not find anything like ‘shining bright’ in Juyoung’s face. Nonetheless, when his late father praised Juyoung so much, Chairman Hong began to pay close attention to him all the time.

Chairman Hong thought that his father had been wrong as he watched Juyoung growing up. . Juyoung had nothing extraordinary when compared to his elder brother Kiyoung.

But now he that had to take another look at Juyoung, Chairman Hong knew why his late father praised Juyoung so much.

‘In the end, you were right, Dad.’

Chairman Hong stopped reminiscing, and looked ahead.

***

In front of the Myongjin Shelter.

“…”

I realized at a glance that they were roots, but I could hardly settle on whether they were really roots or not, because they were simply too big.

There were a lot of them, as thick as a giant tree that had lived for a thousand years, soaring into the sky. They were literally floating in the air.

At that moment one of Smith’s party members began to attack me again. “Shaking Land!”

I didn’t foresee the emergence of the roots, so I had let down my guard a bit enough for one of them to attack me during the distraction. When I was about to block his attack, I discovered that I didn’t have to, the roots moved first!

Kugugung- Kugugugung-

Shaking Land, the attack skill that created cracks in my Thin Ice and Ice Prison, was really strong.

But this time the ground I was stepping on was not shaken at all. The numerous roots sprouting from underground held the shaking ground fast, while many of them were already floating in the air.

Something flashed through my mind when I saw that.

Even in an area where landslides occurred, certain parts of the land where there were trees with very deep roots were not affected by the landslide.

That’s exactly what had happened before my eyes right now.

“…”

“…”

“…”

Not just the guy who had used Shaking Land, but the other members of Smith’s party were all making frustrated and resigned expressions.

Of course, expressions like that were not strange to me at all, for even I didn’t know that I could completely stop Shaking Land like this!

Then the roots still floating in the air moved by themselves, and immediately began to wrap up Smith’s party!
