Chapter 105 – Pioneering (5)
“I can’t last long by myself!”
The passageway was shaken so much that it was difficult to stand properly as the giant beast earthworms that filled the passageway wriggled.
Pia did her best to stop him, but there was a limit to stopping such a huge enemy alone.
“Just a little more!”
Serenian immediately blew an arrow containing thunderbolt into the gaping mouth. A single dot revealed between countless teeth. Its tiny throat was its only weak point, and the arrows went right there.
“Ugh..”
“Quickly stop it!”
Then, the electric-shocked demon beast screamed and twisted its body even more. The walls and ceiling were cracked, and the struggle was so intense that powder fell.
The dwarves were frightened and approached him with their weapons and shields, but they had no choice but to back away as their strong teeth tore off the steel shield.
‘Not enough.’
Serenian saw that figure and intuition that it was still lacking. A greater power is needed, a sure and complete power to turn the situation around. In this underworld where even heaven can’t help.
“Wait a minute!”
Then, she looked back at her own spirit and was startled. Her spirits are completely different from her existing spirits. It was born when the electricity contained in the coin battery to be put into the Battlebot came into contact with her mana.
A being like that sensed her crisis and stepped forward.
“Stand back everyone!”
“Kuh, what is this…”
Soon, the spark-like mass gathered in the air gradually grew in size, radiating tremendous light and energy and blasting its power straight ahead.
As the frightened Dwarves hurriedly threw their bodies away, the lightning spirit shot its power directly at the Earthworm.
‘I can’t believe it. This is elemental scattering.’
Pia couldn’t control her small body and finally fell to the ground and rolled over, noticing what the spirit of Serenian was doing.

Pia had no choice but to know. It was a skill of considerable power that no one else could attempt, as her fellow elementalist, Ersilla, always left it as her trump card and tried it with her own wind spirit, Sylph.
“Ugh, ugh!”
Everybody screamed. All you hear is the sound of a powerful electric shock exploding, piercing the giant monster’s hard upper body and teeth, burning and shattering its body.
When at last the roaring noise and bells subsided and only thick smoke remained at the scene.
The only one standing properly in his seat was Serenian with a blank face.
“Lord, are you dead?”
Aron stood up with a groan and grabbed his spear and poked at the terribly crushed corpse of the beast earthworm, but the earthworm did not respond.
In the first place, there was no need to check it, and it was so charred that it could be seen from the outside.
“…No way.”
However, Serenian was unable to examine the corpse of the monster earthworm.
He couldn’t help but hug the spirit that had almost lost its light and withered in his arms.
“Spirit Scattering is when a spirit instantaneously emits power beyond its limit. So I just did my best. You just have to recover.”
“Is that true?”
“Eh, Ersilla always said that. The wind spirit can recover by feeding on the wind of nature.”
Serenian couldn’t help but be confused. Because no one told her. Since she first came into this world, she had to take care of her followers as well as handle many things alone.
Her Pia soothed her, but in fact, her Pia was all she picked up.
“To say he recovered while eating the wind. Then this child.”
Serenian broke into a cold sweat after hearing Pia’s testimony. It would be correct for a lightning spirit to eat lightning. Her problem is that she has searched through all of her own memories, but she has no memory of seeing ‘lightning’ in this land.
According to her memories, when it rained, it was just pouring water.
“You seem very flustered, but think about getting out of here for now. Didn’t I hear that your spirit, Queen, is a spirit bestowed by heaven? Once I get out of here, I’m sure you’ll be fine.”
“Yes, I will.”
As Serenian was momentarily out of his mind, Aaron looked around and ordered him to leave immediately.
She nodded her head once.
Now that they have learned that the beast earthworms can go beyond the deep underground and come to this place occupied by beast spiders, they must completely change the way they attack dungeons from the beginning.
‘He has a soft side.’
Aaron glanced at Serenian, whose face was still pale, as he hurriedly evacuated her wounded back.
The Serenian he saw was clearly an iron-blooded monarch. He took control of the elves who were older and more experienced than himself, and finally the dwarves.
In the process, there must have been help from a different being called the spirit of the sky, but Aaron was also a being who led a force and served someone as his master.
I knew that her abilities weren’t enough to be overshadowed by the existence of the sky god.
That’s why the appearance of her I saw today was different and at the same time relieved.
Because she knew that the woman who showed that she was unbreakable iron-blooded was not the cold-blooded woman who would do anything for her own ends.
In my heart, I was worried that Serenian and the elves might be using the dwarves as tools, but it didn’t seem necessary.
“Regional Leader. How did this happen? I could feel the vibrations up to this point!”
“To explain it, it’s long, so you guys must be very nervous. If something goes wrong, run away without looking back!”
They soon arrived at this underground fortress built by the dwarves.
After entering the castle, he asked the soldiers guarding the place to be absolutely careful and left the dungeon.
“Queen, you had better go and get some rest. We will come up with a new strategy.”
“Okay…”
Serenian’s face returned to normal only when he came out and breathed in the fresh air.
However, her weak spirit still emitted only a faint spark.

“Calm down a little. Are you asking for lightning? I’ll give you enough.”
As soon as I got home from work, I was surprised and almost fell asleep.
I inadvertently passed by the herb pot on the table in the living room, because Serenian was sitting there waiting for me.
I put down her bag and hurriedly headed there. She buried her face in her lap. She raised her head with her eyes that clearly showed tears, and she sent her spirit to me. Begged to save
“Is it really possible?”
“It’s sound that the spirit first came out…It was the heart of a black bull. Maybe if you use something similar.”
I smiled and grabbed her arm. Her trembling arms seemed a little relieved now, and she gradually regained her composure.
“It’s not urgent right now, so let’s listen now. What happened did the spirit have to work so hard?”
“In that basement, I felt a great despair that I hadn’t felt recently. At that time, I was so urgent that I acted without realizing it.”
Sighing, Serenian calmly told me what had happened in the dungeon while I was at the company.
Hearing this makes me uncomfortable. Because I’m in danger without knowing it, and I could end up in a big trouble at the bottom.
However, if you are in a dungeon, it is difficult to provide direct help even if you are watching with a drone. But she can’t even tell her not to go to her dungeon.
It’s her duty. Will it really help her if I forcefully block it in the name of her sky god? Absolutely not. I know because I’ve seen how she survived from the beginning.
“As expected, I am lacking.”
“It can’t be. Who would have come this far if not you. Did Heaven really choose anyone?”
It’s been a while since I’ve seen her weak side. What remains in my memory is probably the moment she first saw the monster ant that caused her mutation.
In particular, as the number of her followers increased, she never showed weakness in front of them.
It is probably the only one in front of me that I can see like this now. Just like a believer confessing to a priest.
Our bodies, which naturally got closer to each other, were now touching each other. I finally grabbed her with the arms that were holding her body.
To my surprise, she didn’t bother pulling herself out.
“Is it because the sky is me?”
“Yes.”
“I feel relieved after hearing that. But it is true that I am weak. I became a spirit sage and gained new powers through the power of spirits, but there is no opportunity to sharpen them and no teacher to teach me.”
In her arms, she spoke her true feelings that she couldn’t tell anyone.
“If you want to practice and practice, I can help. Of course, I’m neither a Elementalist nor an Elf, so I won’t be able to help you directly, but if you want to test it out while unleashing your power, I’m happy.”
I wanted to help her.
Even if it means using a power that has been taboo since a long time ago.
