Spacetime Social Hall.
“Hehe, I heard that upper class people think differently?”
Not all transcendents are the same transcendent. When I thought about the fact that there were only ten transcendental people who could enter the upper layer, the child’s eyes sparkled like a child for the first time in a long time.
“Brother, shouldn’t we buy a few more of these? Why, aren’t the tasks they perform different from ours? Even the witches of the Southern Sea can drink liquor and herbs that we can’t even……?! ”
Suddenly.
It was thanks to the water of life being poured into the wound.
With a fully recovered hand, the Sunrise Warrior raised the Child of Lightning.
He grabbed the rampaging child by the scruff of the neck.
“Ugh! What’s happening all of a sudden?!”
“Put that down.”
“Why? I’m sure you can charge him whatever you want ……. ”
“Useless waste.”
Sunrise Warrior said firmly.
“It’s informal.”
Formal.
“Hiig. Ah, I understand.”
It was a traumatizing word. Eventually, the Lightning Child picked out exactly what he needed and held it in his hand, a look of regret on his face.
Sunrise Warrior finally spoke up.
“We will return to the battlefield as soon as we are ready.”
“Already? Why? Can’t we rest a little longer?! ”
The passage of time in the Spacetime Social Hall?
It flows so slowly that it’s practically at a standstill. Even if you spent days here, it would only amount to a few seconds on the Arcana continent.
However.
“I can’t waste a single second.”
Sunrise Warrior didn’t care about the time difference.
“You needless stubborn human being!”
Lightning Child retorted as he straightened his clothes.
“Are you saying that because you’re still angry? Of course, you’ll hate him. He’s the one who devastated your hometown? But you know that. It’s not just the Eastern Continent that’s been devastated, right?”
Lightning Child said seriously.
“You know, everyone has a grudge, even I, with my pure spirit heart, have a grudge against someone. But I don’t think it’s worth throwing my life away to settle a score. After all, you have a bright future ahead of you, just like me, right?”
Sunrise Warrior thought.
‘Come to think of it…….’
So far I’ve only talked about myself.
I’ve never heard the full story of this boy, the Lightning Child. A half-breed of spirit and human. It must not have been an easy life, wandering the continent alone at such a young age.
Sunrise Warrior chuckled without realizing it.
‘You are comforting me with such topics.’
He realized how much he’d been on the run.
Clearly, he hadn’t been able to relax.
The moment he came face to face with the creature, he lunged in anger.
To the extent that he brought on these excessive injuries.
“Thank you.”
“Eh?”
A question mark appeared on the boy’s face at Sunrise Warrior’s mild words.
He was expecting a barrage of nagging, but suddenly he was grateful.
It was a moment of doubt rather than pride.
“But there’s no reason why we’re in a hurry.”
“…It’s not because of something?”
More questioning words followed.
“I just want to make sure.”
“Confirm what?”
“To make sure my feelings aren’t wrong.”
“ …….Feeling? What feeling?”
Wait a minute, you just keep talking nonsense.
“Brother, do you know something strange from earlier?”
“Me?”
“That’s right, you’ve been sounding like old man Shegwin.”
A corner of the Spacetime Social Hall.
Shegwin, the Sword Saint who used to talk to the Sword around.
It seemed as if the human figures overlapped.
‘It wasn’t a compliment.’
Sunrise Warrior smiles.
“I hope that’s really the case.”
“What? Are you really as crazy as he is?!”
The question came back.
“You’re crazy.”
With that, the silence ended, and Sunrise exited the Spacetime Social Hall. And so did the Lightning Child. But when they awoke once more, it was far from the battlefield.
“Let’s join.”
They rushed to the Transcendent’s body.
And there they saw it.
The Knights of the Lionheart.
“What, what are those knights?”
Knights of the Lionheart, unwilling to back down from the face of the Eight Headed Viper. No, they didn’t back down, they charged at the great monster hundreds of times their size.
“How can they even think of attacking, are they insane?!”
The Lightning Child could not contain his astonishment.
It was an exclamation he could only utter because he had just exchanged blows with the eight-headed viper.
A mere mortal who hadn’t attained the rank of Transcendent would suffer terrible, skin-melting pain just by approaching the poison…….
The Sunrise Warrior thought to himself.
‘I wonder if it’s because they are braver than the warriors of my hometown.’
No, he dared to hope.
Not because their arms bend inward. The spirit of warriors, and even more so the resolve of those who lost their families to the creature like him, would never have been duller than that of the Lionheart knights.
Then why were they not backing down?
“Only.”
The Sunrise Warrior looked at the reason.
“Because you shine on them.”
The reason why he said that he finally saw Hoyeol.
It was because he had never seen Hoyeol before.
It was because he was exuding a different vibe.
“This is an act for us.”
I didn’t expect the word ‘us’ to come out of his mouth.
I wanted to confirm it with my own eyes.
Just to make sure I wasn’t imagining things.
cheolkeog.
“However, you are not one to let people be mistaken.”
Suddenly, the Sunrise Warrior raised the sunrise sword.
Swoosh.
“All forces, retreat!”
He leaped to the aid of the knights, who were retreating rapidly to avoid the creature’s writhing. It was then. The Sunrise Warrior, his sunrise sword, began to emit a clear ‘sword qi’.
….
Seogseog.
No matter how hard I swung it, I couldn’t cut it down.
Scratches are carved into its skin.
No, blood marks go beyond the scratches.
“…!”
One of the eight heads turns toward him.
“Oho, the rat from the Eastern Continent is still alive!”
It glares at him with killing intent.
The Sunrise Warrior suddenly realized what had happened.
What Hoyeol said.
-“In order to move forward, you must look within yourself.”
And so it was.
What was needed to move forward on the Sword Path.
I needed to look back at the way I came.
‘In that short conversation.’
You gave me a realization that I could not have realized even if I struggled with it for the rest of my life.
Sunrise (日出), meaning the rising of the sun. I believed that there would be a sunrise at the end of the journey. It wasn’t. The sun I had longed for had already risen in the sky.
‘Truly like the sun in the sky.’
Not just for himself
It was shining equally on everyone.
Not just a ray of light.
It blazed like the brightest sun.

The dizzying message.
[Recovery appears in Yessica Bright.]
[Recovery appears in Harkon Kingsguard.]
[Sunrise Warrior has reached Enlightenment] …….
If you ask me why these messages are coming to me, it’s because I’m the ‘commander-in-chief’ of them, and if I’m the commander-in-chief, I’m the commander-in-chief, and why do I add the qualifier ‘commander-in-chief’?
‘Damn, I never thought I’d bring this up again……!’
Because I was actually ‘Commanding’.
I was floundering in the air.
I looked at my hand.
[Baton of Rhyme]
[Rating: Epic]
[Limitations : None]

Add to that the fact that I am wearing a mythic item, the Legacy of Eunaxus, and I feel as if I am sincere in my command.
Unperturbed by my lament, Grandfell speaks up.
“Brillante.”
What the hell does that even mean, Grandfell ……?!
Brillante : bright, brilliant, shining
