BXBX NOVEL Chapter 747
Chapter 747
“How do you know my name? Killed me?”
Chroma, the last shaman of the giants—his face was filled with confusion. In fact, Chroma wasn’t in a normal state. Long before Chroma died, he poured out his full capabilities to complete one spell. It was a spell that separated his soul from his flesh and later allowed his soul to reside in the body most similar to his main body.
There was just one thing Chroma hadn’t expected and that was the extinction of the giants. He never dreamed that Floyd, the king of the giants, would choose death. He chose this spell while thinking that Floyd would revive the clan again after his death.
This was Chroma’s misjudgment. Over time, Chroma woke up in the body of a troll shaman with a size similar to his own body. However, it wasn’t a perfect success because it wasn’t the body of a giant. Then he soon had a problem with his memory. His memories were incomplete and fragmented.
‘I think there is a problem.’
Hyeonu noticed from Chroma’s response that Chroma wasn’t in a normal state.
‘There is no information to be obtained. I’m just going to kill him.’
If Chroma was sane, it would be fine to have a brief information because he could then get information on the giants. However, Chroma wasn’t in a normal state. Hyeonu’s interest only remained on the items that Chroma would drop after he died.
“Just die.”
Hyeonu placed the Mysterious Sky Sword in his sheath and quickly drew it. At the same time, a solid purple line appeared between Hyeonu and Chroma. A line of blood flowed from Chroma’s neck. His neck was cut by more than half and seemed like it couldn’t be reattached, even with the regenerative power of the trolls.
“W…Who are you?”
Even at the last moment, Chroma looked at Hyeonu with doubts. However, Hyeonu no longer answered Chroma’s questions.
[The great shaman of the Mapa Tribe, Chroma, has been killed.]
[Experience has been acquired.]
[You have leveled up.]
[All health and magic power are restored.]
Hyeonu wasn’t an idiot to speak to the dead.
“Master dude, this time something came out.”
Tang-E quickly rushed to Chroma’s body and picked something up.
“Really?”
Hyeonu ran to the place where Chroma’s body was located the moment he heard Tang-E’s words. Hyeonu looked at Tang-E’s paw with a very excited face.
‘A bead?’
Tang-E picked up a small bead. The bead was small enough to fit in Hyeonu’s hand. On the outside, there was nothing special about it.
‘Item Information.’
Hyeonu immediately confirmed the information of the bead.
[Chroma’s Incomplete Memories]
[An essence containing the memories of Chroma, the fallen shaman of the giant species who failed to cast a spell.
Rating: Epic
Restrictions: Possess a relic of the giants, more than 4,500 magic power.
Effect: Stats will randomly increase when taken (a maximum of 200 points per stat). There is a high probability that Chroma’s incomplete memories will be transferred. There is a normal chance to create a lightning attribute magic. There is a low probability of creating a stat.]
“An essence?”
After checking the item information, Hyeonu’s eyes widened and he repeatedly looked at the bed and information window several times. It was an essence in a place he hadn’t expected at all. The effect of the essence was great. It was tailor made for Tang-E.
There might be a low possibility of creating a lightning attribute magic, but even stats could be obtained. It might be limited in use, but Tang-E had a relic of the giants. This condition wasn’t a problem at all. The problem was elsewhere.
‘No… I never thought Chroma would reappear here in the first place.’
Hyeonu looked at the bead and then stared at Tang-E. Usually, Tang-E showed an infinite obsession with essences, but now he was no different from usual. He wasn’t interested at all.
“Tang-E, this is an essence.”
Hyeonu wondered if Tang-E hadn’t heard properly so he told Tang-E again.
“I heard, Master dude. However, I don’t really want to eat it. It feels very uncomfortable.”
Tang-E didn’t have much craving for the blue bead in front of him. He thought it was just an essence.
“Really?”
The problem was that even Hyeonu didn’t really want to eat the essence left by Chroma.
‘It is said that the memories are transferred…’
As Tang-E said, it was uncomfortable. Tang-E just had a feeling, but Hyeonu knew exactly why he felt uncomfortable thanks to the information window. It was that Chroma’s memories would be transferred. This was why Hyeonu hesitated to absorb the essence.
‘I wish it gave more of an explanation in the message window…’
“Are you really not going to eat it? You will get a lot stronger if you eat it.”
Hyeonu finally asked Tang-E. It was really the last offer. The restriction for taking the essence was to have the giant relic. Both Hyeonu and Tang-E had one giant relic. Either one of them could eat it.
“It is fine, Master dude. Meat is enough. I yield it to Master dude.”
Tang-E smiled at Hyeonu and raised his paws like he was being generous.
“Don’t have any regrets.”Hyeonu smiled bitterly at Tang-E.
“I don’t regret it. Master dude.”
Tang-E smiled brightly.
Hyeonu struggled to calm down his mind that was filled with an unknown sense of defeat and raised the blue bead to his mouth. The bead melted like cotton candy the moment it entered his mouth. Something that was the size of an egg became water.
[Chroma’s Incomplete Memories has been consumed.]
[The strength stat has increased by 145 points.]
[The agility stat has increased by 98 points.]
[The physique stat has increased by 187 points.]
[The magic power stat has increased by 200 points.]
[The fighting energy stat has increased by 132 points.]
[The dignity stat has increased by 165 points.]
[The killing intent stat has increased by 199 points.]
‘Good. This much… it is amazing.’
Hyeonu smiled with satisfaction at the rise in stats that occurred the moment he swallowed the bead. He saw it and felt it was worth the trouble.
[Chroma’s incomplete memories have been transferred due to consuming Chroma’s Incomplete Memories.]
The moment the next message window popped up, a small book emerged over Hyeonu’s hand.
‘Are these the incomplete memories?’
Unlike what Hyeonu feared, Chroma’s incomplete memories took the form of a book. Hyeonu immediately opened the book. There was no reason to hesitate.
-One day, people with gloomy energy came to me.They asked me if I had any intention of becoming the king. At first, I ignored their words.Yet over time, their suggestion felt plausible.So I decided to accept their offer.
The first chapter ended here. After that, the pages were torn so there was nothing to read properly.
‘It isn’t just at an incomplete level. It is just pieces. Shouldn’t this be a collection of pieces?’
A long time passed before he found another place where the writing remained.
-Floyd seems to have noticed.There was suddenly a place to use the holy relic, so he asked me to give it to him.I wanted to ignore the request, but I couldn’t.He is the king of the giants.I can’t reveal my true heart yet.
Fortunately, this time there was more text written directly on the next page. Hyeonu quickly read it.
-It was a mistake to ignore Floyd’s boldness.Floyd scattered the relic outside of Arperium.It was too late by the time I noticed it.Floyd blocked me from trying to track it.I can’t handle Floyd now that I’ve lost the relic.I think I will have to implement the plan sooner.
‘What? It is over again?’
At an exquisite moment, the contents of the book were interrupted again. Hyeonu became angry and flipped through the book recklessly. It was until letters appeared.
‘It came out.’
It wasn’t until he flipped over more than 10 pages that text appeared again.
-The plan failed.They fell helplessly before Floyd.The people who helped me barely managed to preserve their lives thanks to Floyd’s mercy.Still, it is fine.They found out that Floyd’s relic is incomplete, so their role was sufficient. It turned out that he divided it into three and was only carrying one with him.The other holy relics weren’t seen at all.Floyd is also exhausted, so I should implement the real plan today.I can find the holy relics after that.
‘What? There is no more?’
This was the last page of the book. There was nothing more. Hyeonu felt uncomfortable for some reason. Nevertheless, this alone allowed him to get enough information.
‘These rings were originally one?’
One of the benefits that Hyeonu gained was the knowledge that the giant rings he was wearing was actually one. This was a very shocking story. If three rings were turned into one, he would be able to wear two more rings.
‘There is also one more relic.’
This was also a great result. He would be able to get another unique or epic item.
‘Where should I look for it? Should I stop by Bung Bung Island again?’
Unfortunately, Chroma’s memory was incomplete so he didn’t know the exact location. It was fine though. It was important to get these clues. He would definitely be able to get it if he spent some time on it.
There were no items that couldn’t be found.
“Based on what is written here… Chroma became ordinary…”
Hyeonu looked up and muttered. Chroma, whom Hyeonu encountered in the instance dungeon, had lost most of his magic and could only use the simple magic like today. In other words, something else happened again after the contents of the book.
‘Did it have anything to do with the plan?’
Hyeonu suddenly felt anger rising. Putting aside leveling up or getting items, he was fascinated by the game\'s story.
[A quest has been created.]
[Secret of the Giants]
[Find out why the giants went extinct. Traces remain in the Balder Mountains.
Rating: A
Conditions: Find the traces of the giants 0/1.
Rewards: Experience, progress to the next quest.]
At this moment, a message window appeared in front of Hyeonu informing him of the quest creation.
‘The Balder Mountains… it is there.’
It was the location of the instance dungeon where Hyeonu first met the giants. Was it Arperium? He also remembered the name of the instance dungeon. It was a fun experience. It was also a place where he almost got hit in the back of the head by a monster.
‘I have to go now.’
Hyeonu was preparing to exit the instance dungeon. It wasn’t important to gain more levels here. Obviously, he was curious about the quests associated with the ancient empire. However, the thing that seemed more fun and interesting right now was the quest involving the giants.
“Tang-E, let’s go to the Balder Mountains!”
