My Alter Ego’s Path to Greatness

#250

Kang Hwan-gye (2)

Drasha, the capital of the Elven Kingdom.

“Ugh—.”

A deep sigh escaped Cecily Granwood’s mouth as she left the royal castle located in the center.

‘Where on earth are you going all of a sudden…’

It was because she was troubled by the sudden behavior of Harris, who could be said to be her motive just a few hours ago.

He, who had faithfully guarded the World Tree in preparation for any emergency, suddenly requested a vacation.

Actually, that in itself wasn’t that unusual.

No matter what position you are in, you need rest and time for yourself, so the other high elves agreed without saying anything and told me to get some rest.

The problem was not that he left Drasha, but that he decided to leave the Elven Kingdom and go to an unknown place.

‘…I didn’t say where, but for some reason it doesn’t seem to be the Enamel Continent.’

Of course, the high elves, including Cecily, went out to stop him.

High Elves, one of the few symbolic beings in the Elven Kingdom, are important figures who have quickly emerged as the best in power. How can they just ignore the fact that they are going alone to a place where there may be no threat?

However, unlike his usual carefree nature, he came out very forcefully, and in the end, they had no choice but to take a step back due to his stubbornness.

‘Now that we have eliminated threats including lycanthropes and have sufficient defenses, there is no problem if he leaves his post.’

The agreed upon time was only ten days.

Harris, who had promised to return within ten days, had just taken the path in the forest and left for an unknown location.

“It shouldn’t be a big deal.”

I didn’t think that a strong person like him could easily get hurt, but the world is so scary right now that I couldn’t help but be worried.

Wouldn’t it be better if we just stretched out and photosynthesized as usual?

She walked down the street with that kind of heart in mind—.

A little distance away, someone could be seen snooping near the wooden hill where Harris usually lounged.

‘uh? Shapiron…?’

An elf girl, holding a basket of snacks in her hand and looking around her surroundings while shaking her flowing blue hair as if she were beautifully decorated.

It was Lafori’s daughter, Shapiron Silvesti.

We participated in the mission together and were of similar age, so we naturally became close friends.

‘ah! no way.’

I often saw her and Harris hanging out together while traveling.

Most of the time, it was just eating snacks or grumbling next to him while he was drooping.

So of course I thought he had told her separately in advance… but

now I see that he just left without saying anything to her.

‘No, what’s so urgent!’

Cecily was frozen for a moment, but then her eyes met directly with a pair of blue eyes that were looking around.

Shapiron bows his head with wide eyes.

Seeing that innocent look made my heart feel heavier.

“Haha, just wait for this person to come…”

Cecily sighed again and slowly walked towards her.

I promised myself that I would definitely say something when Harris came back.

***

Danger level very high. Survival priority.

I couldn’t just send any avatar into such a dangerous world.

Since you can cancel the summoning, you won’t die in most cases, but isn’t it a waste to go through trial and error like that?

‘Because force is essential to obtain accurate local information and ensure safety. There is no need to struggle from the bottom when you have overwhelming power!’

Hans was busy recovering from his immortality and focusing on research, while Heinz II was busy taking care of both worlds.

Heinrich was receiving the attention of the entire continent, and Harley still had quite a bit of work left to do in the south.

‘In the end, the only one who is free is Harris.’

Of course, since Harris could not stay away for long, he had to return to the Elven Kingdom after establishing the necessary bridgehead.

The time given to him right now is about 10 days.

That was enough time to achieve the primary goal.

Kang Hwan-gye’s mother-in-law.

In the middle of a deserted mountainous area.

Seup— Ha—

“This is Kang Hwan-gye… It’s not that bad, is it?”

Harris, who was taking his first steps into a new world, took a deep breath and nodded.

Although it was not as large as Outerica, where the World Tree exists, compared to Earth’s dirty air, this place was practically a clean area.

‘It’s partly because of environmental pollution, but there’s also a big difference depending on the presence or absence of energy spread around the world.’

A mysterious barren land where not a single particle of energy is mixed in the atmosphere—unlike Earth, the energy unique to this world was constantly circulating in the air of the Ganghwan Realm, purifying the world’s filth.

‘Is this energy? It’s a subtle feeling.’

I could definitely feel it because I was a high elf who was sensitive to nature and a strong person who had reached transcendence.

Not only is there a difference in energy, but the composition of the atmosphere is also noticeably different from Outerica and Earth.

‘It’s amazing to experience that again. What is it about an awakened person that it is not affected by such a completely different environment?’

Independence that is not restricted by the laws of each dimension and homeostasis that maintains its own unique properties even in such environments.

No matter how much I thought about it, I didn’t think something like this would have happened for no reason.

“Hmm.”

The blond green-eyed nobleman with long ears slightly tilted his head and stroked his chin, then shook his head.

Right now was not the time to meditate on the secrets of this world.

‘The important thing now is that the experiment was successful.’

Thanks to this, the second feat after ‘returning to Earth under one’s own power’ was achieved and the ‘Summoning of the Otherworld Transmission’ was strengthened.

Transmission, which used to be possible once every 10 days in other world time, has now been drastically reduced to 5 days.

‘A privilege that allows you to return to a place you have passed through in another world.’

And that was the key to Harris’s transition to Kang Hwan-gye.

The result of Hans’s research based on memories of vivid thought information extracted from Salma, an expert in Hyeongyeong.

‘You mean this is the place Salma passed by?’

Finally, after deceiving not only himself but also the world—

He succeeded in twisting cause and effect as if he had personally visited the places that Salma remembered.

“Then shall we begin a full-scale field investigation…?”

Harris looked around at the surrounding forest and trees and smiled slightly.

Although they were all unfamiliar plants that he had never seen before, the refreshing energy they gave off was enough to satisfy him who had a “natural fairy tale.”

If this is enough….

“Come out, Pascal.”

Whiuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu

his spirits will be able to play quite comfortably from now on too.

Yangheng Mountain near Changsha City, Hunan Province.

“Two three beol. “Business was bad today.”

“I can’t help it. This is the situation right now. “How can I be an idiot who fights around without fear when the country has collapsed?”

“Is it time to talk so carefree? If this continues, everyone will starve to death! “Shouldn’t we move this somewhere else?”

“Even so, the boss seems to be worried about where to move. “It looks like he couldn’t hold on to Sohochae and moved out some time ago.”

There was a group of five or six people gathered together and chatting among themselves at the entrance to the mountain road that must be passed to get over the mountain.

Although he calls himself a mountain lord of Yanghyeongsan Mountain and a hero who criticizes the wrong world.

To put it bluntly, they were bandits.

“Oh, that. Still no signal at the entrance? “If you hit the ball again today, the boss will be really angry.”

“Sigh. “I guess I made a mistake today too.”

“Ugh, there is no commercial traffic these days. “It would be nice if a rich person fell from the sky.”

“Giggles, if you’re going to say something stupid, just don’t sleep on DB! “What’s going on in this sunny sky… huh?”

At that moment, an unexpected situation befell them, who were keeping the peace of the mountain in harmony as always.

“Huh?! What is that? “Come this way…!”

Starting with the astonishment of a person who found something while looking up at the sky without thinking, they followed his gaze and raised their heads one by one before their eyes—.

Whoa whoa—!

In a sudden strong storm.

“Oh man found.”

A person fell from the sky.

With a carefree voice that somehow makes you feel drowsy just listening to it.

And the moment they encountered him, the same thought spread among the bandits.

‘…is this really a person?’

It had to be that way.

I could quite accept the blond hair and green eyes.

Although people with colored eyes are rare in this land, they are not non-existent.

‘Is that a cute human? And the eyes…!’

‘Yo…youkai?!’

However, in all other aspects, it was far beyond the reality they could accept.

A beautiful face boasting a perfect sculpt, ears sticking out on both sides, and star-shaped pupils inside green eyes.

Didn’t he even fly down from the sky with tangible wind wrapped around his body?

This was a story that could not be easily accepted, even by those who viewed the world with an open mind and without prejudice.

“…….”

“…….”

The bandits secretly exchanged glances with each other.

It was to ask each other’s opinions on this sudden situation, but in fact, what they had to do was already decided.

“Oh my! “What are you doing in such a squalid place?”

The bandit with the large spot on his nose who had hoped for a tiger to fall from the sky was the first to lie down and cry out mournfully.

“The Precious One gives these insignificant guys…”

“Well, if you want something, anything…”

“The old woman is just looking at me and waiting…”

I followed him and hurriedly put my head down on the floor. Bandits that are putting them down.

It was a quick judgment of the situation, as befits people who have survived so far with only their survival instinct at the bottom.

Putting everything else aside, there is no way you would do something crazy like mindlessly attack someone who manipulated the wind and performed miracles by flying through the sky!

“Well, these people are quick to understand.”

Harris, the stranger who came down from the sky, seemed to like the sight of them and nodded in satisfaction.

Satisfied that I didn’t have to use too much effort from my first encounter with the people of this world.

‘More than anything, I didn’t know that “Xenoglossy” would be active here. ‘I thought this was a winner, but I won, right?’

I was able to feel natural as I chatted with the locals here.

Now I understand what they are saying and that “Xenoglossy” is involved in all the language that comes out of their mouths.

The system’s automatic translation function only applied to the first dimension that was officially entered, or the service was not provided for dimensions that were entered without permission.

‘If it weren’t for this, I would have wasted a lot of time bringing in Hans and learning a new language, right?’

As things turned out like this, I naturally started to become interested again in 『Random Guitar Skill Acquisition』, which was where I got 『Xenoglossy』.

Of course, it requires a huge expenditure of 500,000 points, but…

‘No, no. ‘Let’s think about that later.’

The temptation to draw was creeping up on him, but right now it was time to focus on the situation in front of him.

“Then, could you please guide me to your home base first?”

In fact, not long after discovering them from afar, I had already figured out the existence of nearby mountain houses.

They just came this way first because it was closer.

In other words, this was just a simple formality.

“that… May I ask what brings you to such a squalid place?…”

“Uh-huh! This guy! …hehe, of course! Please follow me this way! I will guide you in the fastest and most comfortable way!”

The bandit with the big dots, who seemed to have sensed the corners of his eyes rising at the question of an oblivious friend, brightened the mood again and immediately guided him.

I almost felt a little offended, but I couldn’t help but feel truly fortunate.

To them, of course.

And it was only natural.

Guided to the living quarters, he captured all the bandits in an instant and was soon able to interrogate them and begin collecting information in earnest.

This happened just over an hour after the mysterious master ‘Harry Su’ appeared in the world.
