    Episode 76 – The Magic Scene of Wood 3 –

    I am a bug now.

    To be precise, they are treated like insects.

    “Giggle. Move quickly. Before I want to kill you.”

    Bang~

    Bang~

    Bang~

    You could say that what I’m doing now is like swatting a fly with a fly swatter.

    Ygrasil is now trying to hit me with a huge hammer of unknown origin.

    It’s not like I’m trying to kill you, but running away from here seems to be a form of training.

    I don’t know if it’s true.

    Because the training method for this skill was not provided in WFS.

    In the first place, it wasn’t a skill that a playable character could learn.

    ‘I thought it would be good if I learned it since it would be difficult to keep the main story from the moment I was reincarnated 23 years before the start of the main story anyway… ‘

    World Fantasy Saga is an online game.

    And online games basically focus on the fun of playing.

    Doesn’t focus on story.

    So, even if the playable character in an online game is a high-ranking powerhouse, the strongest players are often other beings.

    Users want fun in play, whether hunting or raiding.

    Because I don’t think the playable character has to be the strongest.

    This is also the reason why multiple users challenge one raid boss.

    So, I shouldn’t just follow my character’s growth route.

    If that happens, I will be just one of many attackers.

    So it was good to come this far…

    The problem is that the relevant process is not shown as the player does not learn, so I don’t know if it is correct.

    ‘In the first place, when you level up in the game, all you do is increase your stats and skills, but what do you learn?’

    I don’t even have a status window.

    There is no chance given from birth.

    What I was given as a reincarnated person was memories of the future.

    It’s just a setting that conveys only strictly objective facts.

    Therefore, you need to work hard to become stronger.

    No matter how difficult it may be.

    But still, this was a bit strange.

    “So what does this have to do with ghost swordsmanship!?”

    “If you know about ghost swordsmanship, do you have any idea what it is? Giggling. Because we have to deal with souls and ghosts ”

    What bullshit.

    Ghost swordsmanship is not a swordsmanship that deals with spirits and ghosts.

    It’s a way to see the soul by cutting off the soul connected to the body.

    Of course, the idea of ​​cutting one’s soul may seem fraudulent.

    That alone is nothing.

    This is because if the power is at the level of cutting off a soul, other techniques will fall behind if used as is.

    ‘Of course, the reason why the Ghost Sword Technique is fraudulent is because it cuts off the soul.’

    However, even if it is fraudulent, it is meaningless if you cannot learn it.

    That’s why I continued to argue with Igrasil.

    What does this have to do with anything?

    “What is it related to? The best way to interfere with the soul is to die once. To do that, you have to go into suspended animation, but I don’t know how to do that. Giggling.

    That’s why you overwork your body like this. Giggling.”

    I almost died thousands of times already.

    Even though he died once.

    I don’t know anything else, but when I was kidnapped by the Evil God Church, it was a repetition of being tortured until right before death and then being released.

    If that’s the case, why are they doing this to me because they’re lacking something?

    ‘Of course, there’s no chance of that guy going crazy. Even if he behaves the way he likes, it doesn’t mean he has low intelligence.’

    That guy sums up what happens when a kid has both brains and brawn.

    They are strong and have brains of their own, but they have not learned social skills.

    This is why home education is important.

    “HeekㅡHeekㅡ”

    After catching bugs, the next training was waiting.

    Of course, there was no break time.

    Still, I guess Ygrasil was satisfying in its own way.

    Daecheonsal glared at me with an evil smile.

    “Giggle. Still, there was grit. Now it’s real time.”

    “Me. Well, I didn’t do anything.”

    “That’s why I’m doing it, giggle. You can’t just practice forever, right?”

    After saying that, Ygrasil pulled out something else from somewhere.

    It was a scented candle with an unidentifiable scent.

    For a moment, the possibility that it was a poisonous plant lingered within me.

    That guy is stronger than me.

    There was no reason to kill me in this way, so I decided to believe it.

    “What is this? I feel like I’m going crazy when I smell something… ?”

    “That’s right. If you mix this properly, it becomes alive but dead. Then the basics are complete.”

    “What is it that there was a technique to make it into lyrics? But why was it like that until now? Tell me. Why did you do that to me?”

    “Shouldn’t we first look at the will? Now that I know there is a minimum amount of will, I’ll give it a try. My teacher also experimented with this and gathered 100 people who survived.”

    Sleeping pills are a double-edged sword.

    It is very good during surgery because it does not cause pain while the drug is working.

    If the effect of the drug is too much, you may fall into eternal sleep.

    Anesthetizing areas that should not be anesthetized can cause death.

    Of course, I doubt whether I can overcome it with mental strength.

    “If you have good mental strength, you will be able to overcome it. I don’t know how they did it or who discovered it. Giggling.”

    “What is it? It’s easy. Than you think. I thought it would take a long time just to lay the foundation.”

    “If you do something wrong, you’ll die? From the beginning, my teacher said that hundreds of people died just doing this one thing. Giggling.”

    what? Survive with a 1 in 100 chance?

    A battle royale between the surviving children again?

    How many orphans were there?

    Aren’t some kids orphans?

    At a time when the population was smaller than it is now, the population of one city would have been around a few thousand people.

    I also wonder how such a thing was possible.

    In medieval Europe, a city would have had thousands of people.

    Ygrasil could be lying to scare me.

    Only others will know the truth.

    “So are you going to do it or not? Giggling. For your information, this is the basics and you don’t have to do anything special after this. Giggling. If you’re going to give up, you don’t have to just save the body.”

    I have to “. This is a cheap way to learn the ghost sword technique.”

    “Giggle. So, do you know what ghost swordsmanship is? When I see you trying to learn somehow.”

    In the meantime, Igrasil was wondering how I knew the ghost sword technique.

    He asked me about it.

    The only people who know about ghost swordsmanship are the swordsmen of the empire.

    This is precisely why Geomseong killed him rather than detaining him.

    Because I didn’t know when Igrasil would surpass the Sword Saint if I left him alive.

    “Ghost Sword Technique. Unlike general sword techniques, it is a sword technique that can sever the connection between the soul and body.”

    “Cutting your soul? Right. But that alone is nothing, right? Even if you just cut off the head, the soul will automatically go to the underworld. Giggling.”

    That is correct.

    The problem is that if you separate it like that, the soul will be damaged and there will be no way to see it.

    It cuts off the soul.

    This in itself is nothing, but as I said before, the soul and body interact with each other.

    Even if we have the same soul, my soul at 0 years old and my soul at 27 years old are different.

    The soul contains the technology contained in the body.

    Therefore, if you can completely separate the soul, you can read the technology.

    Even the subject’s Auror awakening period.

    “In theory, it is a skill that can be learned up to the Aura awakening level of the killed target. Evolving swordsmanship. In fact, it is something closer to the foundation than a swordsmanship.”

    “Giggle. I know it well. So do you know the shortcomings?”

    “You can’t learn other auror methods. It doesn’t matter because the ghost sword technique itself is a high-level sword technique. Anyway, if you go up, it’s a battle with awakening or unique magic.”

    “Giggle giggleㅡ A smart guy has come to visit.”

    Although it is limited, it is possible to definitely learn the Aura awakening of others.

    If this fact becomes known, it is certain that many people will visit Ygrasil.

    I will try even if it means risking death. In fact, there are many people who gain strength by sacrificing their lives.

    This is why Geomseong hid this fact.

    Ghost swordsmanship is a technique that completely goes against existing swordsmanship.

    Unlike sword techniques that damage the body, this is a technique that damages the soul.

    So the better I became at using swordsmanship, the closer it became to impossible to learn.

    That’s why the Sword Master couldn’t learn this sword technique.

    However, the Sword Saint could not learn this skill, so Igrasil’s madness may have been due to his celestial nature. I couldn’t tell if it was because of this technology.

    The nature of killing oneself is simply the inability to endure the desire to kill oneself. Because you don’t become a madman like that.

    And he thought that someone like the Archangel and the Swordmaster Ygrasil should not be reborn.

    His swordsmanship was completely hidden.

    Moreover, he could have surpassed the Sword Saint someday.

    The ghost sword technique, which had the best potential in the world, was buried somewhere in this land.

    Until I found it.

    “Then… Let’s start.”

    “Giggle. It’s cool. It’s pretty good. Giggling.”

    Igrasil took out the scented candles, crushed some and boiled some.

    An unidentified liquid created after a short period of manufacturing.

    You must eat this.

    “Then try to see the soul. Grasping your soul. That comes first. Giggling.”

    I drank it without hesitation.

    At least I saw a scene of drinking this in WFS.

    That’s why I asked earlier if this was the right training method.

    “You know what to do, right? Recognize the soul. The moment I find you Because you’ll be able to get out. Giggling.”

    That there exists a body suitable for the soul.

    In other words, it means that traces of the body remain in the soul.

    Therefore, if you can see and read the soul, you can also see hidden skills because there is nothing to hide.

    And if you know how to read it… Auror awakening is also understandable.

    Therefore, if you want to learn ghost sword techniques, you must go through this process.

    Auror awakening is not something you can write about just because you understand it.

    As the saying goes, you may know ten ways of water, but you don’t know one way of people.

    It means reproducing a technology that has been forged by melting down a person’s thoughts, experiences, regrets, desires, wishes, will, talent, skills, and body.

    This is because it is like asking to completely understand the person himself.

    Let’s say a one-armed swordsman creates an Auror awakening device that has the same efficiency as using both arms.

    However, in order to understand that person, you must thoroughly understand the experiences, thoughts, and body that a person experiences as a one-armed person.

    This is because, while living as a one-armed swordsman, he forged the will to use both arms and turned the world upside down.

    However, the soul is one of the few mediators that can be influenced by both the body and the mind.

    So, if you can see the soul and understand how.

    In the end, it is possible to reproduce Auror awakening.

    Of course, there may be skills that you cannot use due to your body or talent.

    ‘That’s why you must learn.’

    The merit of being able to reproduce Auror awakening is more attractive than anything else.

    So I have to learn it.

    Because I am confident in learning the report.

    From when I was in Korea. Because I was confident.

    “I will drink.”

    Slurp~

    The drinking time was short.

    The time I spent falling asleep was shorter.

    [please. I hope you get out of it alright. I want you to succeed too. Giggling.]

    Finally, a greeting from Ygrasil.

    I lost consciousness in the material world.

    =========

    The deeper you fall into sleep, the more alien sensations you feel.

    Perhaps it is something that has entered my imaginary world.

    I waited for a long time.

    Until my soul is composed.

    Because what happens here is a place the player character has never seen before.

    I don’t know how it will progress.

    But I don’t tremble.

    Because I am confident.

    Because I just have to survive somehow.

    After floating for a long time, a being emerges.

    Me now. And it was someone who looked exactly like me in Korea.

    soul.

    The soul embodied in this world of images was there.

    “Are you happy?”

    And then the being asked me.

    Are you happy?

    “No.”

    I also answered.

    I can’t be happy.

    “Then why are you doing this? You know everything.”

    Why are you doing this?

    Knowing that the Underworld exists.

    Because I also know that another dimension exists.

    You might be asking, “Why are you doing this?”

    Even if the world is destroyed, they eventually go to the underworld.

    Because it is not disappearing.

    “You can’t be happy all the time. I just hope for occasional happiness. You know it well, right?”

    my life. And at the last moment, there was almost nothing but pain.

    But just one person. I endured it while thinking of the angel who came every now and then.

    Although life is difficult and arduous. Still, sometimes hope and happiness come.

    That’s how you live.

    “Even if my arm is cut off. It’s okay if you cause damage to the other person. Even if you fall, it’s okay as long as you can stand up again.

    Even if it’s not enough right now. You can laugh later. If only I could be happy.”

    Although I hope everyone will be happy forever.

    I know very well that it can’t be done.

    And finally, the most important thing remains.

    “So you’re giving up now, right? You are not ‘mine’.”

    That soul that reveals my image.

    It’s not me.

    That’s why, from the moment I saw that thing, I never once called that thing me.
