93 – Leviathan (2)
Ivan… !
Hey!!! Ivan!!!
Tina’s voice seemed to buzz her head and she came to her senses.
“Ugh… I’m dizzy… “
“I fainted… ? Under… I’m sick of it now… How did you fall this time? ?”
About an hour… I fell asleep during the wartime situation…
If she remembers her last memory before losing consciousness, she probably fainted after being hit by a rock.
When I looked around the cave, the inside of the cave was littered with rocks due to falling rocks.
But for some reason, there are no fallen rocks around me.
“Why are there no stones around us?” ?”
I was lucky… This doesn’t suit me at all because I’m lucky, doesn’t it?
Maybe it was Tina’s luck, not mine.
Tina must have had a lot of luck because she was seen pulling out a gold bead in one go in the fruit shop’s lottery the other day.
‘I’m almost certain that a brick fell on me… ‘
I touched the spot on my head where there was a faint pain.
Fortunately, there was no bleeding and it seemed like a rather large lump had formed.
Ah, isn’t that fortunate? Anyway, let’s consider ourselves lucky that it’s not the worst.
“Where did Leviathan go? Since we’re safe, I don’t think we’re in the cave… “
You tried calling me? Without even eating?
The guy who followed me right after I started crying, noticed that I was hiding in the cave, and forced his way into the cave?
‘It’s strange that you ignored other people in the first place and chased after me… He’s acting so strangely… ‘

As I thought about it, a hypothesis occurred to me.
Leviathan seemed to have reason.
Leviathan did not act faithfully to its instincts like other demon beasts, but acted as if it was clearly targeting me.
But then he chased me as if I was going to kill him and then left me alone in front of him…
It feels like I am being controlled by someone or receiving orders in real time.
‘Then who is controlling that guy…? ‘
Is there any way to know such a thing?
For now, it is enough to find out that the other person has a clear goal and that that goal is related to me.
“Ha… I have to leave first, right? But because of the spell, I can only walk in the water and I can’t swim. What should I do?”
It’s hard to compare your luck to finding something like that.
I headed in the direction Tina was pointing with the tip of her sword.
Just as she said, a staircase leading up appeared.
Why is this thing in the cave? Thinking this, I looked into the cave again and confirmed that there was a large mermaid statue inside the cave.
I was interested in the statue, so I took a quick look before leaving and found that the words ‘Great Hero: Dagon!’ Were engraved on the rock on which the statue was placed.
The statue made of marble depicts a mermaid holding a harpoon high, as if ready to hunt a monster at any moment.
This cave itself is not a natural cave, but seems to have been a cave originally intended to place a statue of a hero.
Unlike the hero made of marble, the harpoon in his hand is a strange object that looks like it could be used right away.
Out of curiosity, I took the harpoon from the sculpture’s hand.
[Dagon’s Harpoon: A weapon used by Dagon, the ancient hero who put Leviathan to sleep, and contains the hero’s energy. It had been neglected for a long time and was not maintained. It will break after one use.]
[Sharpened Justice: Releases the magical power concentrated in the harpoon. Deals additional damage to a specific target (Leviathan)
Hero’s Strength: After using the above skill, if your divinity is 8 or higher, your strength and agility +3 for 30 minutes.
Hero’s Charisma: After using the above skill, if your divinity is 8 or higher, your magic power and mental power +3 for 30 minutes.
Binding: This weapon currently belongs to Ivan Ira]
Oh my goodness.
What kind of weird item is this?
My eyes widened when I saw the specifications of the enormous weapon.
As he was holding the harpoon in a daze, Tina, in his hand, urged him on.
I looked alternately at Tina, who had become a harpoon and a sword.
After all, people who become heroes use good weapons…
… It can’t be compared to the weapon called the Sword Fairy.
“Yes, why are you doing that?”
“hahahahaha! “No way!”
Wow, I’m getting goosebumps. Why are you so perceptive?
It’s not like she can see through your heart like a goddess, but I cursed in my mind for a moment and she noticed…
After overcoming the situation with exaggerated laughter, I debated whether to return the harpoon or not.
It is said to be a hero’s weapon and seems to have symbolism, but wouldn’t it be a crime to take it…
However, if you have this weapon, you will be able to roast and eat the eel child that is still running wild.
And more than anything, this weapon seems to want to kill Leviathan rather than be left unattended like this.
The waves of magical energy flowing from the weapon clearly reveal the will of Dagon, the former user.
I can feel Mugi’s desire to kill his old enemy and return to his master.
[Main Quest: Follow the hero’s will, hunt Leviathan]
Reward: 1 million PP, ???
※If you fail, you will die.
‘…If that is your wish, I will make it come true.’
It would be better to hand it over to someone else rather than use it myself, as I am physically weak, but since it is a bound weapon, I cannot give it to you.
“Let’s stop talking nonsense and go upstairs. “It’s noisy now that Leviathan is rampaging up there.”
I was ignoring it, but my ears hurt from the loud sound of the ground pounding.
Why on earth are you running wild on top of the Leviathan to make such a fuss?
I grabbed the harpoon and climbed the stairs.
The higher you go, the louder the noise becomes. Screams and the sound of shells exploding get closer.
-Keeek!!!
When it came out of the cave, Leviathan let out its distinctive, unpleasant cry.
But this time my body did not freeze.
It was thanks to the magical power flowing from the harpoon that it gave me courage.
Not only that, the harpoon gave me information about him.
All of the guy’s weaknesses and behavior patterns identified by his previous owner, Dagon, enter my brain.
So, over there, on the forehead, which is the exact center of the head.
That place contains the nucleus that makes up its body.
Fall into a state of extreme concentration.
Aiming for that guy’s core.
Understand all variables, such as the reverberation of the wind, the wavelength at which the sound resonates, and calculate the parabola of the harpoon to be thrown.
A perfect posture is obtained for throwing the harpoon.
Truly, how strong is a mermaid named Dagon that she can even control people with her magic?
Before I knew it, I was preparing to destroy its core by following the magic flowing from the weapon.
Once all preparations are complete, the body automatically sends out the spear.
[Use sharp definitions! Hero’s Might grants you +3 Strength and Dexterity. The hero’s charisma increases mental power and magical power by +3]
Too boom!
The harpoon fell from my hand and flew away, emitting light like a laser.
The hero’s harpoon soared and pierced the evil monster,
[The sharpened justice hit a specific target (Leviathan). Additional damage increases by 200%.]
[Dagon’s harpoon consumes all its durability and breaks]
-Krrraaa!!!
Leviathan’s screams echo…
“Yes.”
“Well, it would be the opposite of being flashy on the outside and hollow on the inside like Tina.”
“Ah, yes. Yes.”
“No, no. “No way, it can’t be like that.”
I dealt with Tina appropriately and checked Leviathan’s condition.
It would be nice if he just died from a single blow, but he’s still alive.
What is certain, though, is that they are unable to cause a ruckus like before, probably because they have suffered quite a bit of damage.
At this level, it will be no problem for Byeolju to deliver the final blow.
In fact, most of the Byeolju Army are rushing out at once to deal with the guy.
“Huh… “The job ended easier than I thought.”
“Yes, the job was completed very easily. “It’s not even fun.”
When I was relieved to see Leviathan slowly dying, I suddenly broke into a cold sweat at the sound of a man’s voice next to me.
It wasn’t because the man’s voice rang in my ears and made me feel bad. When viewed objectively, it is a beautiful voice, but it is a man’s voice that is so perfect that it gives me goosebumps.
I remember who this voice belongs to.
I slowly turned my head towards where I heard the voice.
There, Vlady Pierre, a traitor to the five major religions and a clown of the Chaos God, was smiling eeriely.
