Chapter 118

Episode 118 Dark clouds (2)

A rank 5 monster troll.

He’s a synonym for regeneration, but it’s the same that he’ll die if his heart or head explodes.

But I invested all my team’s energy into cutting off his ‘arm’.

And finally.

[G-Ah-!!]

I sealed the arm of the one remaining guy and made it incapacitated.

In other words, it means that an environment where Misha can only squeeze in deals without risk has been established.

Tadat.

Misha, who was wary of the long arms of the troll and focused on keeping her distance, took off for the first time.

And it landed on my shoulder—

whoops!

At the same time, the twin swords were thrust into the eyeballs.

No matter how high your physical resistance is, there will always be a weak spot.

[That’s-!!!]

As the sword enchanted with acid blood was inserted into his fragile eyes, the troll’s struggles intensified.

Nimiral what power…

“Bjorn?”

“Don’t worry here, keep poking around!”

With all his might, he squeezed his arms into his thighs and shouted. Mischa, who knew that it was not a situation to relax, focused on cutting instead of answering.

The first variable occurred here.

Fuuk Fuuk Fuwoouk-

The moment when Misha was stabbing a knife into her eyelids.

Kak! Kakak!

It sounds like scratching.

This was the expected part.

Humans also have bones behind their eyeballs.

But…

“…Bjorn? It’s too hard to go in!”

Bone strength was a problem.

I don’t know if it’s a thick arm bone, but I thought I’d be able to crush it and stab it in the brain.

Yes, it’s not easy.

“Go ahead.”

“Okay!”

Soon, Misha held the ‘venomous snake’s fang’ in reverse and continued to slash at the eyelids.

Then, the second variable occurred.

thud! thud! thud! thud!

As time passed, the troll started rampaging.

The one who lost his sight gave up even trying to separate me and rushed into one place using both free feet.

The problem is…

“Dwalkie! They’re aiming for Dwalkie.”

For some reason, the eyeless troll pup runs straight to where Dwalkie is.

[Geuaaa!!]

Rotmiller hugged Dwalki and tried to avoid it, but he pursued it violently as if he could see it.

“Magic power! It’s clear that you’re feeling the magical power!”

I was unaware of this phenomenon.

Did he really instinctively sense and follow magic like the dwarf horse?

‘Nimiral.’

the reason anyway.

I thought it was ready-made rice, but in an instant, things started to turn around like shit.

Within 10 seconds of the situation erupting, Dwalki and Rotmiller were cornered.

It was natural.

I wouldn’t know if it was Misha who was sitting there.

Because Rotmiller’s body level wasn’t high enough to run away against a 5th grade monster while holding one person in his arms.

[Gaaaaah-!!!]

Eventually, the trolls rush towards them cornered. The dwarf tried to stop it somehow, but to no avail.

Quaang!

The troll’s kick sent the dwarf flying like a soccer ball and crashing into the wall. Just in time, the MP ran out and the [Balance Weight] seems to have been released…

God damn it, at a moment like this.

“Bjorn?”

“Oh okay!”

Still, Rotmiller took advantage of the momentary gap the dwarf had made to get out of the corner.

Of course, it was only to buy a little time.

Maybe 3 seconds?

thud! thud! thud!

Rottmiller, who was running to the other side, was overtaken by the troll and rolled on the floor avoiding the troll’s kick.

Now, from my position, I couldn’t see the situation of the two.

thud! thud! thud!

In such a state, the troll kicks down.

“Hee hee hee…!”

I don’t hear people being trampled on as if they’re rolling hard… But

if we leave the troll just a little longer like this, someone will surely die.

Dwalkie Rotmiller.

No, maybe it’s both.

coo-!

It was a crossroads of choice.

Misha was completely unaware of the situation below as she was diligently stabbing herself with a knife.

All judgments were mine.

coo-!

If I let go of my arms here and go down, I’ll be able to protect Dwalki and Rotmiller.

But in the end, that choice will lead to annihilation.

If I fall, the troll will attack Misha with his free arm… and

the chance will never come again.

‘Shit.’

Close your eyes tightly.

And I think about it without even realizing it.

Wasn’t it something you would experience someday?

coo-!

[Dungeon and Stone] is not a game that pursues an adventure full of dreams and hopes.

As the game progressed, the death of a colleague became inevitable, and as long as the main character survived, the adventure continued.

yeah that was the game.

This goddamn game is—

Kwajik-!

Then I heard a grinding sound from below.

The sound of flesh and bones crushing that I have heard countless times since I woke up here.

Feeling something strange about this, Misha stops cutting.

Of course, it was only for a short time.

“Go on!!!”

At my cry, Misha resumed cutting.

Kakak Kakak Kakak!

Gritting my teeth, I channeled all my strength into restraining the troll’s remaining arm.

That was when

Poo-!

Dwalki comes into view as he is being kicked out by the troll. The spine is bent, and the body is deformed to such an extent.

With this, I realized one thing.

It wasn’t the information I wanted to know that much, but…

Then, the first sound must have been from Rotmiller’s body.

“…Huh!”

Did you see the Dwalki that has risen to our eye level?

Misha flinched for a moment, then continued to strike the sword down with an expression as if she would cry at any moment.

“Die! Die! Die! You monster! Die!”

In order to survive, he had to watch his colleagues suffer, but the situation turned out to be the worst.

Dwalki suffered and the curse was lifted.

The effect of [Super Regeneration] is normally applied and the arm recovers quickly.

“Misha Karlstein has cast [Ice Crushing]”

“Misha Karlstein has cast [Ice Crushing]”

“Misha Karlstein has cast [Ice Crushing]

” I threw down my sword with all my might. It was a moment that lasted one minute, one second, like a billion.

Kakak! Kak kak kak… Kwajik!

At the same time, a refreshing crash sound was heard somewhere.

The body of the troll that was holding onto it with all its body disappears.

“You have killed the troll. EXP +5”

***

Misha and I fell to the ground as the body of the dead troll was reconciled with light and disappeared.

Normally, I would have balanced midway and landed on both feet, but neither of us had the energy to do so.

cooong!

As I stretched out on the floor and stared blankly at the ceiling, a magic stone the size of a fist fell beside my head.

Took. Degur –

That was all the spoils.

There was no such thing as a dramatic integer coming out.

It felt like this moment was real.

yeah it’s not like a dream

Even the choice I just made.

The appearance of Dwalkie, who flew away in a miserable form by that choice…

“Rotmiller! Dwalkie!”

Throwing away the desire to rest, I forced myself to stand up. Misha was already running to pick up a fallen colleague.

“Rotmiller! Come to your senses!!!”

“Huh… don’t shake…!”

“I’m sorry!”

Surprisingly, Rotmiller was alive.

One leg was broken and crushed, but it is not a life-threatening injury.

Literally heaven help.

If the head or upper body had been trampled on, that would have been the end.

“Rather than me… Dewalki first…”

“Ah, I got it!!”

As Misha ran to the dwalkie, I turned my attention to the dwarf.

No major trauma was noted.

‘Did he just knock his head against the wall and pass out…’

The problem was Dwalky.

“Rain Bjorn!! What can I do! De Dwalki isn’t breathing…”

“Look out of the way.”

Pushing Misha away, he checks Dwalkie’s pulse.

Breathing has stopped, but the heart is beating faintly.

It means that there is still room for recovery.

Chii Iik-!

First, take out a bottle of advanced potion and pour it into Dwalki’s mouth.

I know it’s just a temporary measure.

His spine was folded in half and his legs were broken by the impact of the fall. In addition, the internal organs were damaged, and blood continued to flow from the nose and mouth.

And Dwalki is an ordinary human being.

It is also a wizard job famous for its paper body.

‘Fuck.’

I pressed my lips together.

It’s unclear whether an injury like this can be saved with an advanced potion…

“Dwalky! Be patient! You’ll get well soon after taking the potion!”

Even if you survive, there will definitely be huge aftereffects.

Had I known this was going to happen, I wouldn’t have used the highest quality potion there—

“Potion…….”

I turned my head at Rotmiller’s voice, which was struggling to vomit. At first, I thought he was asking for a potion for himself.

But…

“Use this.”

Rotmiller, still shuddering in pain, held out a bottle of potion in his hand towards us.

“It’s a top-notch potion.”

What is the highest quality potion?

Is there…?

“I bought it in case you didn’t know. Use this on him…….” Before I could

answer anything, Misha ran to get the potion and I immediately stopped pouring it into my mouth.

“If you feed it like this, you won’t be able to walk forever.”

“what?”

Potions aren’t all-powerful.

If you blindly feed the potion without matching the bones, you will have a bigger aftereffect.

So—

while Misha fed the potion bit by bit, I put my bent leg and spine back into place. It’s a level where I only roughly matched the position, but

the potion will do something about the rest.

Isn’t it the highest quality potion that heals severed arms?

“Whoa…….”

Watching Dwalki amid heavy tension, I let out a long breath.

breathing has returned.

It will take a while to come to my senses, but my pale complexion has improved a lot.

“……It saved me an hour.”

For the rest, even advanced potions should be enough.

Of course, there was no time to sit still and rest.

“Don’t stand still, help.” S~eaʀᴄh the nôvel_Fire.ηet website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

“Ah, okay. What can I do?”

“Bring Hikurod and lay him down next to him. Just in case, give him a bottle of low-grade potion.”

While Misha followed my directions, I looked at Rotmiller’s injured leg, which had been left unattended.

“What about Dwalkie?”

“Don’t worry. Thanks to you, my life was saved. So why don’t I worry about you first?”

“That too… that’s right. Huhuhuhu.”

“It will hurt quite a bit.”

“That’s al… ugh! Ughhhhhhhhhh!!”

Rottmiller, who had received the ‘potion’, passed out in agony, and all the measures that could be taken immediately ended. I wonder

if this was the same on Misha’s side.

“Bjorn…….”

Misha confirmed. I smiled and

replied ,

“Yes, I’m all alive

.”

Misha dropped it.

It seemed that it was only after hearing my answer that I realized it.

Actually, I still can’t believe it.

‘Really… I don’t think anyone died.’

It’s not that I wanted to die. No,

I

‘m extremely happy that everyone survived.

However,

there were too many reluctant parts to just be

happy . It’s not

because I handled the situation well.

That’s why I passed the crisis.

‘I was lucky… I was lucky.’

“I was just lucky.

After admitting this, I realized

what it means to be an explorer in this goddamn world.

Everyone survived today like in a movie.

But…

” Maybe… It won’t continue to be like today.’

I know better than anyone. That

luck like today can’t happen again and again to a guy like me.

***

As time passed, one by one

they came to their senses

. ….That’s right, they all survived.”

After confirming the news of everyone’s survival, the dwarf didn’t laugh as loudly as usual.

He just repeated the same words as if praying.

“Thank God. Yeah… I’m really fortunate…”

Well, if you’ve been an explorer for a few years, you’ve probably had to go through quite a few things. The death of a colleague is like an explorer’s fate.

“Meeting a troll and Everyone is safe, so I’m going to have to make an offering to the temple when I go back…”

The one who woke up next to the dwarf was

Rotmiller

. I didn’t expect a troll to act like that while blind.”

“…how could that be your fault. We should say thank you. Without you, none of them would have survived.”

“But…”

“Your judgment was right, don’t beat yourself up.”

Already Rottmiller seemed to know the choice I was about to make at the cost of both of them. I don’t know.

I shouted to

keep

doing

so

. The wound hasn’t healed yet.”

“Everyone… are you okay…?”

“We’re all okay! So don’t worry!”

“Ah… Miss Misha… I’m glad you’re safe…”

“You idiot! What do you mean?”

“That’s…! Cool! Is that so…? Hahaha.”

As Dwalki, who was in the most serious condition, woke up, the atmosphere that had become infinitely heavy became brighter.

“Haha, the five of us caught a troll. I can’t even brag about this. No one will believe it!”

The dwarf began to joke as usual, as well as Misha

. It’s kind of embarrassing. Didn’t you get nothing after all that hardship?”

“You saved your life.”

“Rotmiller, it’s a problem

because you’re not too greedy.” Oh sure don’t worry We’ll collect it all together and pay for it.”

“Then I’m a little relieved.”

“Oh, but Bjorn. Now what are you going to do next? Aren’t you thinking of going up from here?”

“Huh… what the hell do you think of me? Of course I’m going to rest for a while.”

“No, Misha? Why do you ask Bjorn for a doctor? I’m sure I’m the leader of the team, right?”

“Ah…is that so?”

The dwarf’s question, anyway.

My opinion to stay on that floor until the labyrinth is closed was accepted without objection from anyone.

That’s right, exploration . “The labyrinth has been closed.”

“The

character

moves to Lapdonia.”

A week passed like that. The sixth expedition has come to an end.
