Chapter 106

Episode 106

“How much more do we have to go! I’m going to starve to death like this!”

“Um... about 36 hours and 27 minutes?”

“Pia?! Then what are you eating in the meantime!”

“You have a bag of nuts.”

“That’s what I saved up to eat!”

“I can’t help it. It’s not like there’s anything on the way.”

Damian shrugged his shoulders as the mungchi struck. Literally, the place they were heading to now was a place where there was nothing but a huge valley.

He had to go several kilometers to the east from the village of Corneille, where he had stepped before, and thus the vast nature of the landscape seemed to face Montperdu in the Pyrenees.

“Kill the master!”

Kock-kock-kock-kock!

So, Damian didn’t care about the beak of a bunch pecking at his forearm and felt the reflection of white buildings halfway up the mountain range in the distance.

A city reminiscent of Zaragoza in Spain, with pepero-like spires lined up through a sea of clouds pouring down.

It was the Duchy of Parma.

“At this point, it should appear soon.”

“What do you mean, master?”

As Damian stretched and raised his upper body, the mung beak flew over his shoulder.

It wasn’t a terrain that could jump out.

If you were overwhelmed by the grandeur of the great nature, you would be overwhelmed. The relatively gentle Yuja Valley boasts a size dozens of times wider than the basin of the Caliphate.

It wasn’t a scene where anything could jump out, unless a dragon or a giant would jump out over the thousands of meters of the mountain range right away.

It was because it was not in the form of a crevasse-like crack under the ground like the Caliphate.

“Queeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!”

That is, until all of a sudden a sharp firing echoed across the front of the wagon.

“oh. It’s out.”

“What are you talking about, you bastard!”

Doo doo doo!

As the earth-shaking sound grew louder and louder, Damian and the bunch jumped out to the coachman’s seat at once.

It sounded like dozens of horses galloping.

Although it could be said that this place is unpaved and pristine, and there are not many places for horses to run, except for the road that only one carriage can come and go.

As he witnessed the gigantic arthropods rushing towards the front of the coachman’s seat, Mungchi could feel his doubts flying away at once.

“Beep beep?!”

Ungoliant.

It was a monster spider more than a carriage with a height of several meters.

“Yeah. long time no see.”

“Now is the time to say such idle things, master!”

Dreuk! Drurrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

When the dark green, shiny carapace of the spider let out an uncomfortable voice, the group shouted at Damian.

At first glance, it was a ghastly appearance.

The stride of the Ungoliant, who was quickly closing the distance towards the mechanical horse carriage, was also a stride, but the viscous liquid that bubbled up between the chattering teeth could not be overlooked either.

“I can’t let the wagon break. Then the money goes out.”

Whoa!

And at the same time, Damian confirmed the distance between the wagon and Ungoliant, which was only a few meters away.

He raised the mana of his whole body and began to radiate a red aura in all directions.

[Witch doctor]

[Blood Cravings]

< Blood Cravings >.

By itself, it was an explosive performance buff enough to close the distance with Ungoliant at once.

“Should we start exploring first?”

“Quit?!”

Quaang!

When Demian, who had been shot as a single red line, appeared from the side, the Ungoliant’s new model, which had been ramming toward the carriage, tipped over.

Chasing the movements of Damian, who boasts more than that, must have been quite a challenge.

At the same time, Damian avoided the blow of conversion that shoots bodily fluids in the middle like a child’s play.

Even Ungoliant’s leg, which had been stabbed in anticipation of the landing point, was spitting out the spirit of punching out...

“The medicine doesn’t work as well as I thought. No, it’s because my skill level is still low.”

“...!”

And at the same time as Damian’s voice, Ungoliant suddenly dug under his stomach.

Unlike before, I could feel a strange feeling as if I was losing power somewhere.

[Witch doctor]

[Plague aura]

Saaaaa—!

Suddenly, the aura of graphite that had been exuding from his whole body climbed up Ungoliant’s legs.

Like a swarm of locusts sweeping through Egypt, they gnawed at the entire body and burrowed into the base of the exoskeleton.

“Kiki...! Kiiik...!”

“Oh. The effect is certain.”

As the Ungoliant’s torso trembled like an aspen tree, Damian tapped the exoskeleton.

It definitely tasted bad.

One bent leg is completely bent, and the other leg is also bent, so it looks like it is folded arbitrarily except for the one that is planted in the ground.

In the meantime, the graphite emanating from Damian’s body was swallowing the Ungoliant in real time, and Damian was sure that he would collapse on its own without taking any action.

“Ki... Qieeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee...!”

The Ungoliant, which had been writhing in agony before I knew it, collapsed on all eight legs like a mosquito that had been hit with insecticide.

The six eyes also twitched wildly and completely lost consciousness.

“So, mom. Do you run into people you see for the first time?”

“Queee....”

Wooooooooooooooong!!

Damian stretched out his palm, and the Ungoliant’s head flew out of shape.

It wasn’t a fist.

It seemed like something was flashing, but it was definitely a different kind of explosion from the aftermath of the hand-to-hand combat he had been adhering to.

“Ugh. Your clothes are all splattered.”

“Owner bastard!!”

And Damian looked over at the crowd approaching with gunfire and brushed off the night chaser set that was all green and bloody.

The fact that he was wasting the cost of < Thirst for Blood > just before, moving towards evasion, was an action he took because the effect of < Plague Outbreak > had occurred later than expected.

On the contrary, it was because the < Vengeful Spirit Arrow > he released with his open palm showed power far exceeding his expectations.

[Spirit Arrow]

Level: 1

Attribute: Spirit

Description: Shoots an arrow of the spirit that pursues the target, dealing 300% magic damage to the enemy. On hit, inflicts 600% magic damage on the target for 30 seconds.

If there are no enemies nearby or if the casting method is different, the spirit will not attack and will hover over the caster’s body. At this time, up to 100 spirits can be summoned at once, and the number increases according to the caster’s intelligence stat.

[Plague Outbreak]

Level: 1

Attribute: Poison/Curse

Description: Emits an aura of plague centering on the caster, dealing 50% magic damage per second. On hit, reduces the target’s Armor, Magic Resistance, and Ailment Resistance by 1% per second. The casting radius increases according to the caster’s intelligence stat, and if there is an unaffected enemy nearby, it moves without being affected by the casting radius.

“...Honestly, I didn’t expect it to be like this.”

Tring!

And Damian scratched the back of his head in embarrassment at the skill description window that popped up in front of him.

The moment when you admire the power of skills that have been renewed along with your job change.

“Careful!!!”

“...?”

Suddenly, a thunderous roar resonated in Damian’s ears, and at the same time, a dark shadow began to fall over his head.

“what?”

Whoa!

It was the shadow of a familiar shape.
