207 – Kill Off (5)
Fire has been a powerful weapon of mankind since ancient times.
What if the village you need to attack is too huge and strong? Set the village on fire
What if there is something scary? Fire is a sacred thing that purifies everything, so burn it first.
What if the vicious power was destroyed by the revolution? Bake it.
What if a terrible plague turns around and the village is about to perish? Burn the whole village
Since ancient times, fire has been a great tool and weapon that solves many things that are difficult to do with human power.
If you are in trouble, set fire to it. It is wisdom passed down from the ancestors.
“I don’t think so.”
When Monia retorted with a troubled look on her face, Chester laughed, saying it was just a joke.
“But is it really going well? Fire has no eyes, Chester. You can’t handle fire.”
“Yes. Off might die in the flames. But Monia, the human body is a bucket full of blood? It doesn’t burn that fast unless it’s a very big fire.”
Solve problems with fire. In this case, the idea was to use fire to create chaos and scatter the enemies.
If the enemies are scattered and left alone or only part of them, kill them with Monia’s sniping and Chester’s charging and cut off their heads and take them.
“The problem is, I’ve never burned anything with Anubis, so I don’t know how well I can burn it.”
“Huh? Doesn’t exist?”
“I could light the fire with a lighter, and there was no need to use such a huge fire.”
“What about wars between tribes?”

“At that time, I used the beam and the veil the most.”
Monia said yes, nodding her head.
“The one that shoots a beam rather?”
“Ray? … ….”
Recalling the power of the beam, Chester shook his head.
“The beam is too strong and the damage range is too large. Off can be swept away.”
If you shoot a thin ray of light, the place where the ray hits will disappear from this world, and the area around it that is not the point of impact will instantly melt and burn.
The laser was so powerful and dangerous that, once used, Anubis could not properly absorb the sun’s power for a while and its overall performance deteriorated.
“You can burn it well with just fire. Let’s believe in Anubis.”
With that said, Chester began to eat while waiting for the night to come.
Since you can’t cook and eat with a fire, wrap the jerky with the bread you obtained before leaving the quest and eat it simply.
“Ah, bread… ….”
It was a hard and rough bread made to be stored and carried around for a long time, but I wonder if that alone is good. Monia enjoyed the taste of the bread while trembling every time she ate it.
She tried everything to recreate the bread on the floating island.
Monia worked hard to find a way to make bread by mixing this and that with the flour of an unknown grain that wasn’t even flour.
However, none of them have been as effective as the well-established ingredients of flour, milk, and eggs. No, there were more terrible failures that I couldn’t eat properly.
“The bread is delicious.”
Geary, Monia started chewing on hard bread without anything. It was difficult even for commoners to eat with bread alone, so it was bread eaten by various means, such as making stew and serving it with meat and vegetables, but it didn’t matter to Monia.
“I like bread.”
“Yes, yes. Have another piece.”
Chester put a piece of fresh bread in Monia’s mouth and made her shut up.
While the two of them were eating, Rex, who left with Ant for a while, caught two cat-like animals from somewhere and shared one with Rex.
“Dad, you know what? I know that? I know?”
“Oh, yes? How great is our Rex? Daddy doesn’t know, can you teach me?”
“This animal is tasteless!”
“Wow~ That’s right!”
Monia, who was mumbling with a loaf of bread in her mouth, laughed at Chester’s treatment of Rex.
At first, Chester acted awkwardly, saying he didn’t know how to treat Rex, but he gradually started to show himself like a father.
‘I’ll take care of it after I settle down and have children.’
My goal right now is to return to the kingdom and steal the secret storage of the duke’s family, and I don’t know when or where I’ll settle down after that…… Monia thought that it wouldn’t be bad to settle down after traveling around the world with her family.
“Did you talk well?”
“Yes! How have you been! Kids are good! Listen to me!”
“Really? Do you like your new friends?”
“Yes! Awesome!”
Rex liked horses.
Currently, the Chester family ties the horse to a suitable place in the forest and visits it periodically to manage it. Rex likes to play with the horse, so he actively leads the horse before Chester and Monia do anything, or moves the horse to its location or feeds it. Was watering
Rex said that a big horse is cool, a flying mane is cool, and a fast running horse is cool.
“But Dad, what are their names?”
“Name?”
Chester was momentarily taken aback. When it comes to horse names, he only tried to differentiate between a black horse and a brown horse because he had a black horse and a brown horse.
“Jordi and the tiara.”
At that time, Monia blurted out.
“Jordi! Tiara! Who is Jordi and who is Tiara?”
Rex goes over to Monia and asks her horse’s name. Monia kindly told her that the male black horse was Jordi and the female brown horse was Tiara.
“…… Hey.”
When Chester heard her name and said it with a little hesitation, Monia made an innocent expression that she didn’t know anything for a moment, but she couldn’t hold back her laughter and giggled.
Seeing Monia like that, Chester also laughed.
“Yes, Jordi and the tiara.”
“Jordi! Tiara! Jordi! Tiara!”
“That’s right, good job. Our Rex.”
“I know the name Mani! My dad is Chester, my mom is Monia, my dad is Black Wind and my mom is…….”
Chester and Monia waited for the night to come, listening to Rex recite the names of people he knew.

Yujin wakes up after a short nap during the day and looks at her small hand, as is her habit.
Eugene’s father was a huge man. He was 2m tall, and he was so strong that even if he jokingly said that he built the wall by himself, at least one person would believe it.
On the other hand, Eugene’s mother was a weak and weak person. Unlike her father, who was bigger than a normal man, she was smaller than a normal woman, and she suffered from frequent illnesses, eventually dying when Eugene was five years old.
Eugene resembles her mother a lot. She had a fine appearance, but most of all, she had a small and slender physique. Fortunately, unlike her mother, her illness did not go away.
Putting aside her lifelong dissatisfaction with her own body, Eugene recalled a glimpse of the assailants in her memory.
‘It must be strong.’
I saw it carefully.
The moment Eugene fired a bullet with her hand sling, the man reacted to it. Thanks to her, the woman ended up with a bullet that should have hit her arm.
‘It was an amazing reaction speed. I wonder if it would be a bit dangerous if we fought head-on.’
After thinking for a while, Eugene took out her notebook and started drawing something on her.
In Eugene’s notebook, there was a blueprint for the hand sling in which Eugene wrote down the direction he wanted to remodel, as well as a plan for how he would remodel it in the future, and there was also a page detailing the shape and size of the bullet.
Eugene begins to draw a new bullet in such a page.
‘I wish there was some secrecy. Even a guy with excellent reaction speed won’t be able to react. In a slightly saliva-like form…….’
Just when Eugene drew several blueprints and thought about making bullets and testing them later, a loud noise suddenly started.
Tak Tak Tak Tak Tak!
It was the sound of a trap activating.
Immediately after hearing the sound, Eugene soared upward and escaped through the gap in the roof. He quickly turned his head and looked around. And, I found out what the hell had touched the trap.
A sharp-looking man with brown hair was looking at him smiling, burning one end of the trap with a roaring flame attached to the end of a golden stick in his hand.
The fire that had moved to the trap spread out in all directions through the trap in a strangely short time, lighting up the dark night in scarlet light.
“Fire! Fire! Fire!”
“Fire! Hey! Turn it off! Throw in the dirt!”
“Damn it! What the hell is that?!”
The trap did not end there. Watching Eugene take aim, the assailant leisurely moved behind the tree, swung the stick with the flame hanging from it, and lightly cut down the thick tree.
Then he kicked the tree where the flames had spread and knocked it down towards the wagon.
Wood is hard to burn because it has a lot of moisture unless it is a well-dried tree. As it must have been, the wood caught fire with surprising ease.
Boom! Pop!
Popping and cracking can be heard from everywhere in the tree because of the water that boils and expands.
After knocking down three more trees to hit the carriage, the assailant disappeared into the darkness again.
“Kyaaa! Who! Turn off this light!”
“Eh, madam! Stay still! We are here to help!”
“Damage! Run away! Well, there must be a river over there! I remember!”
“…… !”
“Let’s all run to the river!”
“No! Dangerous!”
One of the escorts stopped it, but the guest shouted with blood in his eyes.
“Damn it, I didn’t learn anything, you stupid bastard! So you want everyone to die here?! Let’s all run away!”
Eugene remembered the flames burning everywhere and the assailant who secretly hid himself every time he aimed his hand sling so he couldn’t shoot.
And then, after a while, Off came out armed in his wagon, fixing his helmet and looking at it.
“Let’s go into the forest.”
“Is it real?”
When Eugene asked, Off nodded her head.
“If their purpose is me, I won’t be able to use fire recklessly from now on.”
After Off said that, men of the same physique as Off and wearing the same clothes appeared in a rush.
They were elite escorts who were divided into several wagons and were waiting.
From noble mtl dot com
“Are you really going? It’s okay?”
“Sometimes you have to take risks.”
With that said, Op left the escaped guests behind and unleashed the horses with the escorts.
Flames are already everywhere, and more than half of the wagon is engulfed in flames. He got all the horses he could get, but he couldn’t get all the escorts and offs to ride.
After mounting a moderately inconspicuous pack horse, Op looked at the forest and said,
“Everyone, pretend to search and run through the forest.”
“hahahaha. Are you willing to take the risk?”
“You only have to take risks. If you can run away, you better run away.”
Speaking calmly, Off galloped toward the forest.
But right after that, a ray of light seemed to twinkle in the forest, and an arrow flew toward Off.
“…… !”
