Chapter 247: A husband sees the guardian

"Are you okay, husband?"

Xaya asked after helping her loved one. He was still within that ghost form, but his foot properly stepped on the ground. It wasn't like Kyoya was that scared, but he began to panic when he nearly lost 80% of himself within the ground.

Everything was now fine.

"Yeah… Let's see… This cold ghost thing should allow us to run smoother through the cold aura…"

Kyoya instantly began to analyze the new form! It pleased a yandere wife as it would mean more time on his back! She also found it sweet that he instantly thought about both of them.

As he stood up, Xaya went up and pointed at the raging wolf!

It thrashed around with its huge form and its jaw was more accurate than ever. It was like death's grasp from all the boost which was the ice divine's blessing and the whole cold aura around them.

"It's so big… I am sure that all those invaders already spotted the cold ghost's origins… Wait…"

Before Kyoya rushed forth, he realized that he had to kill all invaders. Letting at least one of them would be the worst. But he also realized something else now that he became the ghost.

The cold aura was spreading itself profusely.

"It's due to your wolf."

"Hmm~~"

Kyoya needed to confirm his thoughts. As he entered the battle with the invaders, his knife and cold weapons exchanged heavily. Just a few seconds were enough for Kyoya to slash at least twenty times.

At this point, he realized.

"They are using the cold ghost? This place…"

This place was what allowed the invaders to be below the irregular ocean. No one could really go between continents because of it, but what about this place? Everyone could see the ocean clearly from below as if there was an invisible screen holding it.

But what if this screen was a weak point and something that could be used to catch the beast?"

"Heh, too late."

One of the invaders muttered.

His eyes went up to look at the ocean that was about to change into another attribute. The thousand cold starts glittered from the ground at this very moment! Those stars, together with the cold air around the invaders and Kyoya's party, went up!

As more and more of the cold stars began to invade the ocean, Kyoya and the rest could see an unknown silhouette slowly revealing itself up above.

"So… easily?"

"Easily, you said?"

As Kyoya found the whole phenomenon easy, he instantly got pulled to reality by the invader. The invader already did what he had to, so he was eager to speak more than before.

"It all took time and resources that we would have never touched if it were not for master's courtesy. Now, one of the floor's mysteries is going to be unveiled by us! A mere low floor adventurer, that's who I am!"

"..."

"And the same goes for others. But we will unveil the mystery and even catch the beast! Hahaha!"

"Well, good for you, I guess."

Everyone achieved the impossible in their own way.

Kyoya would love to stop them, though. It wasn't like it was only about the queen and the floor that had helped him, but Kyoya began to feel a weird feeling within him that wanted to keep things in their right place.

The irregular beast was one of those!

Nonetheless, the situation took yet another different route.

"Your master is truly a great person. Send him my thanks."

A new person emerged out of the shadows. Following this dude were ten other people clad in black robes. The aura they carried reminded Kyoya of father in law, so they were probably the guardian and his family.

All immortal, they came at the last moment with the beast trapped in the cold aura.

"The guardian? From your words alone I can tell that you are also interested in the beast."

"I am interested, but just little enough to take its eye."

"Ah, that is no good."

The invader smiled, his eyes turning a little colder. The same went for others that distanced himself from the cold ghost and Kyoya's party already. Looking at the guardian with cold eyes, they were ready to fight them.

Of course, their attention was also on the husband and his party.

"Haha, the beast is trapped. Then how are you going to take it away? You surely have some means because of this mighty master, but I have yet to see at least one of you going up here. Let me guess, you can't?"

"..."

"Then, I will excuse myself. Before you take the beast, I will just take the eye! Haha~~"

The man at the helm laughed and flew up. His hands turned into black wings that easily threw him closer to the irregular beast.

His family then stepped forth to interrupt the cold invaders.

Those angrily looked at them, then the battle began.

As for Kyoya, he sent his party to rest! Then, he used the cold ghost and flew up with Xaya on his back. They stopped the guardian from coming closer with that huge cold wolf! Its huge body and aura bothered the guardian, but he flashed his white teeth nonetheless.

"You are totally unrelated to this. Why would you protect the beast?"

Not only Kyoya would need to fight the guardian, he also would need to deal with the invaders later.

It sounded so hard and arduous that the guardian just shrugged after hearing Kyoya's answer.

"I just feel like it. I also have to kill them all."

"The husband has to end the filth slaying."

"Haha. You just add more and more tasks. Workaholic?"

"Nope."

The guardian yet again raised his shoulders, but then the race transformation began.

His long legs turned into bird, black ones. Those legs looked thick and strong with the claws shining with raw aura.

"I am immortal."

His wings then flapped. He flew up as high as possible, then descended onto the husband with huge momentum!

"I just can go at you without any fear! A pain is nothing!"

"Masochist?"

"I hate this damn word!"

"Oh, I see… Workaholic?"
