‘Thud’
The Hobgoblin rushed toward Leo with a huge battle axe in his hands.
‘Sigh…It looks like I can’t take the items from thest two sections.’
Leo sighed as he knew the time hade for him to get out of the [Treasurend].
Humans could not use their talents unlimited times in a row. Depending on the power of the talent and experience of the human, there would be a limit.
After that limit, they have to wait for a few minutes to a few hours, depending on their recovery speed.
Even though Leo has two rank 9 talents and could use his talents so many times without worrying about exhaustion, he could not overexert himself because of the forbidden curse.
Otherwise, his soul gets destroyed.
‘Swoosh’
When the Hobgoblin was about to swing his battle axe to make Leo into two, the old remnant spirit appeared out of thin air and stopped the battle axe.
<Disappear>
A single word from him, the rank 9 Hobgoblin King, disappeared into nothingness.
<You passed this round><sub>-.</sub>
Next, he looked at Leo with a slight smile and said Leo had passed the round.
‘Huh? Did my brain get affected along with my soul?’
Leo was confused and thought he saw things because the old remnant spirit would never say those words to him even if he won, much less when he didn’t even kill the third monster king.
Seeing the confused look on Leo’s face, the old man shouted.
“No. I am getting up.”
Leo came out of his thoughts and hurriedly stood up.
Even though he was tired, Leo didn’t have any problem walking on his own.
“Old man, how did I….”
‘Zap’
“What are you doing? Go away.”
Just as Leo asked about how he passed the round, the old remnant spirit ripped his shirt, making Leo hurriedly take a few steps back.<sub></sub>
<So, you are a ve once>
Looking at the burnt circr seal on Leo’s chest, the old spirit nodded and muttered, <Sigh. A threat is on its way to this world, and the humans are trying to make their fellow humans into enved people>
“Huh?”
Leo frowned when he heard the old spirit’s words and corrected, “Old man, even though it was because of humans I ended up as a ve in the past, this ve seal is not ced by humans. It is the manticore king.”
<No. Are you teaching me things now? Do you think I can’t recognize a ve seal created by a human?>
The old man scoffed at Leo and continued, <The seals created by the humans will have a perfect full moon at the center like the one you have. Whereas the ve seals created by the manticore and other races will have a half moon>
“What?”
Leo was shocked by the old man’s words because until now, he thought the Manticore King had enved him.
Another reason he found the old man’s words hard to believe was that humans were yet to master the techniques rted to enving.
<Sigh…looks like he left a [Treasurend] in this world before leaving>
Soon, the old man sighed because he knew how could humans of this world create ve seals with such mastery.
“Sir Odren, please help me in finding that b*stard who ced this ve on me.”
Thest line from the old spirit made Leopletely believe his words regarding the ve seal. So, he asked the old man to help him.
<Huh? How did you know about my name?>
The old remnant spirit was shocked by Leo’s words and asked how he knew his name.
“I have my ways, Sir Odren.”
Leo could not tell him about the system. So, he changed the subject and spoke, “Back when I killed the ve master, I didn’t know I can remove this seal with his blood.”
“After that, from a friend, I learned that I can also remove the ve seal with the blood of the one who ced this ve on me.”
“So, please help me find that b*stard who ced this ve seal and sold me off.”
Leo requested the old spirit to help him.
Previously, Leo thought that Manticore King ced the ve seals on humans, monsters, and the mutated beasts before selling them back to organizations like ‘ck suits’.
So, that’s why he was hunting the manticores and destroying their territories.
However, he realized a human mastermind was behind the Manticore King and enving his fellow humans.
‘How could he enve his fellow humans? What’s more, when I got this ve seal, I was only 12 years old.’
Whenever he thought a human was behind this envement racket, Leo could not help but be angry.
<How long has it been since you killed your master?>
“It’s been five years.”
<Five years? You are quite lucky to survive this long after killing your master. However, do you think the blood of the ve Marker will solve your problem?>
The old man asked Leo in a calm tone.
A ve Marker is the one who originally ces the ve seals on someone before selling them off to others for money or other things.
“It will. I have witnessed….”
<Once the ve Marker sells his ves, the enved person has nothing to do with him>
Before Leo could finish his words, the old spirit exined to Leo that it would not work.
‘What?’
Leo frowned at the spirit’s words because it worked on the rank 7 Earth Griffin. So, he found it hard to believe and exined his experience rting to the Earth Griffin
<Oh. Then you might have killed the second enver>
“Second enver master?”
<Yes. Since the mutated beast has rank 7 strength, it must be heard for a young tribe leader to control it. So, his father must have be the second enver, and that’s why his blood resolved the ve seal on Griffin’s body>
‘Oh.’
Finally, Leo understood andpletely believed the old remnant spirit’s words.
“So, what should I do now?”
Since the ve marker had be useless to him, Leo asked the old remnant spirit how to resolve the ve seal on his body.
<There is a way to break your ve seal; however, it is hard, and you might lose your life. Do you still want to try it?>
