Episode 390 Accident (16)
At Hans’s words, Serien voluntarily stepped forward.
“I will go. Out of all of them, I’ve been through the gate the most.”
“Let me go too.”
“I can’t be beholden to humans again. We will keep it this time.”
Two high elves raised their hands with her.
“good night. Then, a total of four people, including me, will guard the gate.”
“For the rest of us, focus on closing the gate. If there is something we humans need, do whatever it takes to be the colonel.”
“All right! Leave it to me!”
* * *
After the four high elves left, the temple became quite quiet.
Heprion opened his mouth and said.
“Serien has a lot of trust in Ray. I’m not the type to trust anyone.”
“It is only in terms of ability. Because it paid off.”
“You are conscious of what great things you are doing! great!”
Ray’s hand, which had been moving for a while, stopped.
How many strands did you draw the flow?
Centering on the sixth starting point, the flow section that had not yet been drawn was drawn, albeit in shape.
Sert, who was watching him from the side, admired.
“This is the first time I’ve ever seen a human being with this level of interpretive power… Ah… well, of course! It’s quite a bit for humans who still don’t understand mana to the level of Dwarves…”
“It’s okay, Sert! When you open your mouth, all I hear is cursing!”
“I’m sorry… I’m sorry!”
Ray let out the breath that had accumulated in his lungs.
“Whoa…”
It was time to take a little break.
I calculated in my head the flow I remembered and the path it passed past the point and drew it on parchment.
I needed to give him a break as he overworked his head.
Ray took a sip of the tea Heprion had given him.
As the cold tea water passed down my throat, my mouth, which had been stuffy, became considerably clearer.
“How does it taste? Even if it looks like this, I am confident in my skill at brewing tea.”
“It tastes much better than I imagined. I wasn’t talking about romance for nothing.”
“Because romance and tea are closely related!”
I wanted to ask what kind of relationship he was having, but I held back because it seemed like he would start a long speech about romance all day long.
“How is Ira?”
“Still fighting the altar! I’m still holding on to how much mana it is! Aira-san’s abilities know no bounds!”
What others would have been unable to endure in two weeks, she was silently doing as the month drew to a close.
It couldn’t have been a mental strength so strong that words could not come out.
“…A fight between running out of mana…or running out of mental power…”
Heprion affirmed at Sert’s words.
“If either one of them shakes, there will be a strange reaction at the altar! All we can do is pray for Aira-san to last a little longer! Of course, praying is also romantic, but I’m sorry to everyone that I can’t help on the front lines!”
“I have nothing to apologize for. It’s just that the altar suddenly caused a change, so it’s the same thing that everyone is not in a hurry.”
Heprion’s smile stopped slightly.
He seemed to be a little surprised as he spoke.
“Hey… you are kind. It’s sweet. If you’re a human who has repaired a significant part of the altar alone, I think you can be a little more arrogant…” “
Being arrogant doesn’t mean the altar will be repaired. It is at times like this that each and every effort is required.”
In the modern operating room in the modern day.
He faced many difficulties and overcame them.
At times like this, there was nothing good about pushing one’s own assertion harder.
In the operating room, it was not enough time to hug one more and cheer one up.
Heprion looked at him for a moment and smiled brightly.
“I just thought that Aira-san might have fallen for this part of Ray-san.”
“thank you.”
Praise makes even a whale dance.
Ray felt like he wanted to dance at least.
After hearing his words one after another, the desire to dance completely disappeared.
“Not arrogant, not arrogant. You who know how to move for the sake of others deserve romance! I think I fell for this too!”
“Eh?”
At Heprion’s last words, Sert stopped drinking tea and threw out a question.
Rey stepped back from the table and moved away from Heprion.
“I don’t have any hobbies for men!”
“ha ha ha! Wouldn’t this also be romantic? But don’t worry! Absolutely not as lovers!”
What is it if not liking it as a lover!
Perhaps reading his thoughts, Heprion said with a bright smile.
“Let’s say the relationship is more than friends and less than lovers!”
it’s a horn
* * *
A grotesque sound of the wind spread around the mountain range near Baybon Kingdom.
A strange sound, like the air being torn to pieces, like something being sucked into a hole.
The earth was dyed in the color of ink, and the sky darkened as if covered by dark clouds.
A shadow fell over the green forest.
Not only the beasts, but even the monsters avoided themselves as if they felt the bad vibes.
Whoops-!
Smoke rose from the ground with an intense shockwave.
Gate devoured trees, rocks, and forests.
It was as if a huge hole had been dug through the mountains.
The gate, which used to increase its size while cutting everything around it, stopped growing when it reached a certain size.
Instead, something began to emerge from the dark red entrance.
Rurruk-!
bubbling sound.
A claw poked out of the gate.
– Krrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!
A monster like a giant crayfish left the gate foaming at the mouth.
It is truly bizarre to see the hair all over the body and the small feathers stuck on its back.
An ogre who witnessed a secret happening in the forest approached the crayfish.
As his intelligence was low, he had little sense of danger to enemies he saw for the first time.
As Ou holding a club approached with a small sound, the monster with claws raised its arms
.
Hearing the ogre’s cry, he stabbed his claw with all his might.
The ogre’s wrist, which was over five meters tall, was cut off.
I’m sorry-!
No matter how sharp a sword aura is, it takes a lot of training to cut off the ogre’s tough tendons at once.
However, the monster’s claws weren’t enough to cut off the ogre’s arm, so they left a stab wound on their side.
Feeling the intense pain, the ogre went mad.
“Oohhh!”
The Lord of the Forest was furious.
He swung his clenched fist vigorously.
The ogre’s fist, which had exhausted itself, was powerful enough to break even the sword aura drawn by an intermediate aura user.
When the ogre’s fist touched the monster’s face.
Something unbelievable happened.
Fall out—!
The ogre’s bones were broken.
Looking down at his hand, which had been bent at an odd angle, the ogre was in pain.
“Kuaaaaa!”
Of course, that didn’t mean that no damage was done to the monster.
The monster’s hard shell also began to crack.
Awesome—!
– Kaaaaaagh!
An unpleasant noise resounded like boiling phlegm.
The monsters must also be suffering the same way.
An angry monster attacked the ogre.
The 5-meter-tall monster couldn’t even resist and turned into a monster’s meal.
To be called the Lord of the Forest, it was a rather shabby end.
A monster jumped out of the gate.
– Kerr.
one more
– Aaaaaa!
coming out
– Woong-woong-!
Monsters of various shapes stepped into another dimension to announce their existence.
A monster that walks on two legs and a monster that walks on four legs.
Even the monster that killed the ogre easily and destroyed it in one blow came over to the middle world.
The mountain range seemed like it would become a battleground at any moment.
However, they did not show any movement to fight, perhaps because they thought it would be better to eat easy prey in the middle world than to fight among themselves.
The coachman, who was driving the wagon through the mountains, stopped talking in shock.
“What is that?”
“What’s wrong with you suddenly stopping talking in such rough terrain?”
“Doesn’t look like a suitable place to camp…”
asked the two merchants riding in the back of the wagon, and the driver pointed a finger ahead.
He shifted his gaze accordingly.
Then there was a ‘rat’ that seemed to go over three meters.
It just looked like a mouse.
Except for the horns on its forehead and a pointed object like a shard of glass at the end of its tail, it was a rat.
The two merchants took a few steps back in astonishment.
“Why is that…!”
“Get into the carriage! We must leave immediately!”
The coachman quickly climbed into the carriage.
“I see!”
“Get out of the mountains! Go to the right and you will find a village!”
Listening to the merchant’s advice, the coachman drove the horse.
The monster, who was busy eating something, put down what he was eating and chased after them.
– Kiyiyiik!
The unique howl, which seemed to be half mixed with the cry of a mouse and the warning sound of a snake, sent chills down the spine.
A large three-meter rat came running with its horns in front.
The speed was so fast that even though the horse was running almost at full power, it kept a distance and chased it.
The impatient merchant urged the coachman.
“more! Run faster…! I’m going to get caught!”
“I am doing my best! The terrain is so rough that it is difficult to control!”
He rode his horse with all his strength, but it was not enough to ward off the monster.
Eventually, the corner of the wagon was grabbed by the monster and ripped off.
Kwaaaang—!
The wagon toppled over from the shock.
The horses neighed, and the merchants and coachmen shouted.
However, no matter what they say, the monsters do not understand.
He must have thought of it as just a final roar before the prey in front of him died.
The monster’s long claws ran past the horses.
Then the horses, which had been strong until just a moment ago, splayed their flesh and died as they were.
“Aagh! Save me!”
The appearance of a monster that I had never seen or heard of before in my life was truly terrifying.
The rat’s jaw twisted in the direction of the sound.
– Kiyiyiik!
Huge claws and sharp teeth.
A moment directed towards the weak.
The coachman and the merchant disappeared from the forest.
