Episode 107:
Attacks coming from all directions.
To be fighting hundreds of ghosts on the ice in the middle of the night. Even X never thought something like this would happen.
But X was used to this kind of situation.
Shoo!
X dodged the attack by a narrow margin and looked at Yongyong.
“Pfft.”
Weak things get in the way.
widely!
Yongyong received the attack with a light tail strike.
‘Yongyong is definitely more relaxed than before.’
Fight to the death on Mermaid Island!
The experience at that time was not in vain. It is no exaggeration to say that the combat power of fishmen in the sea is doubled. Although there was rear support from the mermaids, X also grew incomparably since then.
“Slow.”
Therefore, the ghosts’ fierce attacks were not threatening at all. Still, there was something to learn. Unlike the warlike fishmen, the ghosts fought while maintaining their line of battle.
closely. X grabbed the traveler’s sword.
“But it’s not enough to take me down.”
Power amplified through bear stance!
X’s current strength level was close to 9,000. Thanks to this, even an unremarkable swing can produce lethal force. In addition, X’s wielding proficiency easily exceeds 80%.
Sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!
X swung his sword with the sound of the air being torn apart. Then the ghosts near X stopped.
Sssss.
He grabbed his chest and disappeared like smoke. The number of ghosts that evaporated like that exceeded 30.
Tiroling!
A notification rang.
[Your level has risen!]
“Wow, that’s a lot of experience.”
Ghosts evaporating with refreshing expressions. It was an end with no regrets, as if he was hoping for Buddhahood.
He didn’t give me any items, but he gave me experience points that couldn’t be ignored.
Tick.
X raised the corner of his mouth and gestured towards the remaining ghosts.
“I’ll let you go with a single blow without you even having to feel any pain.”

10 minutes.
This is the time it took for hundreds of ghosts to evaporate.
From level 290 as low as level 400! X and Yongyong overwhelmed the ghost fleet, which was as large as any large guild, without a single crisis.
X looked at the ghost ship deck.
“I think that captain is the last one.”
“Kyuuuuuuu!”
Leave it to me!
“Yongyong, wait a minute.”
“Kyuut?”
Yongyong seemed to have finally relaxed.
chin.
X grabbed Yongyong’s tail as he eagerly stepped forward. Because there was still something I wanted to check.
X walked up to the ghost ship and asked politely.
“Is there anything you want to say?”
The captain just watched the battle from beginning to end. I thought it might be the boss, but judging by the energy I felt, it didn’t seem that strong. So I wanted to have a conversation.
‘There must be a story!’
It is a ghost ship that roams this world.
It seemed like a plausible story was already coming out. If you’re wandering this world because you have a problem you haven’t solved, you may be able to receive a quest.
“....”
There was no answer, perhaps because he couldn’t speak. However, the captain gave X permission to board with a glance. X boarded the ghost ship without hesitation.
“Kyuu....”
“You don’t think it has a strange meaning, do you?”
“Kyuuuuuuu!”
The ghost ship Colosseus and its ghost captain, Leo Gagalli, disappear like smoke against the morning sun.
X, who was watching quietly, clenched his fists.
“Now that the spooky ghost ship is gone... the hidden ones will also appear again, right? Let’s go, Yongyong! “Let’s even do the hunting we couldn’t do.”
A bloody ice date with Yongyong continued.

“Eeeeeech!! “You’re catching a real person.”
Dallas was walking through the snowy field, sniffling.
Why are you asking me to meet you at Froststorm Cliff, where there is no village nearby to take the portal? I couldn’t have resented my already poor physical strength more than this.
‘Anyway, why did you ask about the ancestral rites?’
Dallas was following the standard priest transition route.
A buff-specialized route leading to Priest, Intermediate Priest, and High Priest. Dallas, who was over level 200, was an intermediate priest.
I liked it or hated it, but thanks to the promotion exam, I of course memorized the knowledge about ancestral rites.
ancestral rites!
However, Dallas, the person involved, had never performed a ancestral rite before. After all, isn’t invoking God just a way to save face in religion?
“Etch! “Anyway, I’m asking you to do my best, X.”
Is God really going to appear? I don’t know the truth, but it was X’s request. I believed that X would definitely become big, and it has already become big.
‘Actually, the process itself is not very difficult.’
Dallas dug through the snow and reflected on the ancestral rite process. Nothing was difficult. I also brought holy water, which could be considered an offering.
The most important thing was to depict in detail the image of the god being served.
“Let’s see...”
Each priest had different gods they served. But there was something in common.
The gods of Fate World are saints who have achieved great achievements in the past. Thanks to this, it was easy to recall them by looking at their remaining portraits.
Dallas opened the Bible and looked at the picture carefully.
“The characteristic features are pretty eyes and a pretty nose...”
...a portrait that is just characterized by beauty.
The main character of the portrait, the god Dallas served, was Sacridia, the goddess of sacrifice.
Dallas went forward, remembering the image of Sacridia depicted in the Bible.
Tiroling!
Notifications came to mind from time to time.
[You have suffered the ‘frostbite’ condition!]
[Your body is paralyzed!]
“Recovery!”
I was worried about safety as the mana consumption was ridiculous, but fortunately, I didn’t see any crazy people enduring this cold and casting PK.
Dallas healed himself and moved forward. By the time I walked for two full days and half a day.
“...Has it arrived?”
The dizzyingly carved Frost Storm Cliffs came into view. There was no sign of popularity around.
First of all, I wanted to rest for a while. Dallas went to the edge of the cliff and sat down.
“Ugh, but how do I get down here?”
The bottom of the Frost Storm Cliffs gives you goosebumps just by looking at it! I was worried if there was a way to get down to the frozen ruins. But Dallas had strong faith in X.
“No matter what, X will solve everything.”
It was Yongyong who solved the problem, not X, but Dallas can’t even imagine Yongyong’s existence.
Dallas surveyed the scenery and waited for X.
“Wow, there is endless ice?”
The glacier visible beyond the cliff was spectacular. Dallas shivered, but felt his heart grow hot. Seeing the wide open field without an owner made me feel itchy.
“Do you think there are mobs living on that ice?”
If you were alive, what level would you be?
Can I hunt here too?
I had many questions, but it wasn’t long before I realized the answers to those questions. Something started to appear on the ice.
“That thing?!”
Dallas stuttered, his mouth hanging open. No matter how you looked at the black shape that stood out especially on the white ice, it was clear that it was X. Did you change the equipment? It looks unusual even from a distance. That wasn’t what surprised me.
Quality.
A huge lump being dragged by X by its tail. No matter how you looked at it, it was a whale.
How did they catch a whale the size of a house and how do they drag it around with one hand?
Soon Dallas gave up thinking and burst into laughter.
“...you’re still amazing.”
The long-awaited reunion was beyond imagination from the beginning.
Munchkin that I eat all by myself
