Episode 87
“Haa.”
The woman walked with her arms crossed as if nervous. Her footsteps in a certain radius were unstoppable, as if to represent her disposition, but her tightly pursed lips were bitten by her teeth and were distorted.
A short girl with wavy platinum blonde hair in a black and white uniform reminiscent of a maid’s uniform.
“Why aren’t you coming like this?”
Knock!
And as soon as the girl nervously bit her thumb, a voice called her name began to ring out behind her.
“Maria! What are you doing here?”
A middle-aged man with a shaggy beard and a build you would only find in a blacksmith’s shop.
And the general manager who oversees countless adventurers and guild employees in this Terra Kingdom branch.
It was Hot Mountain.
“I have a lot to do, but who is waiting so anxiously? ok? If your body is itchy and you’re thinking of submerging someone, you’d better give up—”
“No news yet, branch manager?”
“News? What news?”
“News from our cutie Rookie!!”
drain!
Maria clenched her fists and shouted in a high-pitched voice.
It didn’t sound like words.
Are you cute? Who’s looking at whom and calling them cute right now?
On the other hand, Hassan, who had been on the frontlines together in the past, was the flagship of the words of the killing machine in front of his eyes.
I couldn’t help but question that he was casually using words he would never say.
As scary as he is, this woman is a bomb on the verge of exploding to the point of causing accidents if she doesn’t show up.
If caught by her like that, there was no doubt that it would be completely obliterated to the point of disappearing from this world without leaving a trace.
By the way...
‘cutie...? Rookie...?’
“Why are you still not coming?”
Wow!
Thus, Hassan’s shirt collar was left in Maria’s hand at the same time.
She was able to recall in her head who the object she was so anxiously waiting for was.
“Ah... you mean that guy. A rookie who participated in the defense of Aldeon Fortress.”
“I’m not a rookie, it’s Damian!!!”
“Anyway, it’s true that the subject you’re curious about is the same. is not it?”
“That is true. that’s right!”
An adventurer with a grotesque appearance wearing a boar’s head.
From the qualification test until now, he has never made a single mistake in completing a request.
“My name is the branch manager, so let’s talk about this... Oh, there’s nothing to let go of.”
“I’m sorry.”
Hassan chinned her collar, and Maria quickly regained her composure and threw the collar of his shirt behind her back.
It was because I failed to control my strength without realizing it, as I had only that thought in my head.
Although Damian’s defense of Aldeon Fortress was a long-term quest that could only be returned after the twin moon days had passed.
Even so, this was the first time that I had to leave without any contact or news.
That is, at first glance, a common defense front for humanity recognized by the Empire bordering unexplored lands.
It was close to impossible for the chief combatant of an adventurer’s guild branch, not the headquarter, to ask for information.
It was the same even if it was Hassan, the branch manager.
Of course, the fact that he was in charge of the Kingdom of Terra, called < Capital >, among the adventurers’ guild’s branches, was indirectly suggesting that Hassan’s abilities and status were not that low.
Considering that his power was only valid within the adventurer’s guild.
I narrowed my eyes as I saw that the movement of Boomer, who had been busy with the attack just before, had stopped.
“...What a fucking bastard. Do you sympathize with me now?”
“Greuk!”
Suddenly, Boomer stood right in front of him, sulking his only one eye due to the sting.
It was because he was clearly laughing at him, who had lost a pair of Kurenai and was surrounded by monsters.
“Mr. De Damian...!”
“Sorry aaaaaa!!!”
As a group of monsters chased after them like a pouring flood, the voices of Hye-eun and her party went far away.
It was a situation where he couldn’t help it even if he didn’t have to push his back.
There was a limit to the way Captain Giorno could earn time by digging through the road, and even those who reached gold level adventurers knew well that the war situation was not so good.
“Hmm... how about this...”
“Kyaa!”
“Kyaaaaaaa!”
And Damian saw a group of monsters shouting loudly because of Boomer’s existence.
He pointed his finger at the bunch of bunches and young chicks whose dainty fur was shaking.
“You guys go to work first. It’s shift time.”
“Beep beep?!”
Fuck!
For Demian, who can reverse-summon a summoned object by casting the skill once more in the first place.
It was best to send the bunch and the new chicks back to the spirit realm now.
‘Live streaming was already turned off a long time ago... and the kids who were talking about Jeungsan New Business died cleanly. Since there don’t seem to be any additional kids attached...
‘
While the boomer in front of him was vigilantly slashing at the monsters around him, Damian was lost in thought.
It looked like a pack of lions and hyenas competing for prey.
Of course, unlike wild animals, for Damian, who knew well that their victory would not be long.
Although the situation was not so good that the given time was only a chongak.
All the guys who were chasing him had already died, and at the same time, even the 6th reconnaissance team, which was the same group, had become so far away that it was difficult to feel their presence.
I no longer had to fight and worry about anyone noticing or spying on me.
This was the reason Damian kept his brain tight even after he used the hidden card of < zombification >.
In fact, even though I was certain that the strategy would not be exposed due to the collapse of the ceiling cliff, I was aiming for Dongguijin with the tattered predator.
The fact that I just sent Hye-eun’s party first was also because I didn’t want to expose my power rather than a choice made out of altruism.
“What... die or faint...?”
“That’s right?”
So, while Damian neglected himself, he raised his eyebrows at Boomer, who was engaged in a war of nerves with the monsters.
I could feel the body’s mana, which I was able to recover during the time of chongak, directly fill up from the base of the floor.
A skill that is no different from the true value of a witch doctor who dyes the whole body and spreads it with hundreds of levels of intellect stats.
Demian’s sincerity, which was hidden and hidden so that no one could see it, and did not show it even at the moment of alarm when he would die once he died.
[Witch doctor]
[Soul return]
Uh-huh-huh-huh-huh!
Eventually, explosive mana emanated from Demian’s body, and at the same time, a huge magic circle began to appear in an empty space that was only a few meters in radius.
“Come out.”
“...!”
Like a corpse rising from a grave, or a messenger of death unleashing a plague on the land.
– Kyaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!
Before long, around Damian, the monsters of the plateau began to rise from the ground at a terrifying speed.
