276 Fire Whirlpool (2)
the boundary between life and death.
The line is sometimes drawn slowly, sometimes in a fleeting moment.
In the explorer profession, it is mostly the latter.
Some injuries can be healed with potions or divine power. Unless you’re injured, or your team is annihilated, you’re usually surviving.
Well, it’s not like this isn’t the case.
“Ugh, please wake up.”
A situation where potions or divine powers do not work.
There are times when that happens.
Tim Banpoon’s wizard, Reor Wob Dwalkie.
As he approaches a certain death, he leaves a will for those left behind, at which time Misha and her colleagues must feel a deep sense of loss.
Of course, there was a difference between then and now.
“yes? A girl who doesn’t know this name. please… … .”
Not a precious colleague, just a human being.
Besides, it’s not even a definite death like Dwalkie.
There is still the possibility of overcoming adversity and surviving.
It is entirely up to this red-haired woman and Misha to decide where to go at the crossroads of life and death.
“Ah, wake up!”

Misha swung her sword violently, shouting as if expressing crampedness. At the tip of the sword, there were monsters that came up from the beach.
Sigh-!
An enemy that keeps appearing even after cutting, stabbing, and cutting again.
Now, Missha was the limit.
If you didn’t leave this place right away, you might not be able to meet Youngyoung Bjorn.
However, it was impossible to carry that woman.
The injury has improved to some extent now, and my breathing has stabilized… … .
Sigh-!
In this situation where all sides are monsters, how can you carry that woman with you?
At the very least, if that woman is able to come to her senses and walk along slowly, it will be possible to open the road.
“No, now I’m really at my limit… … !”

Misha shouted again, hoping that this prompt would reach that woman’s unconscious.
That was then.
“you… … .”
The woman lying like a corpse opened her eyes.
“Hey, it just happened! How is your body, can you move?”

Misha asked with a smile, but the woman just mumbled the current situation in her head.
“Okay, have you been protecting me all this time? … .”
“okay! But am I having a hard time any more? huh? You should go to a safe place immediately. Can you do it?”
The answer came back after a very short interval.
“I can’t move.”
“What?”
“But this monster can solve it. Take the thing you told me out of my pocket.”
The words in a voice so calm that it was impossible to see him as a dying person.
At that, Misha stopped blocking the monster and quickly stepped back and opened the expandable pocket on the woman’s belt.
And she took out the thing she said.
“scroll? What the hell is this scroll doing?”
“Declaration of annihilation.”
Novel from https://noblemtl.com
Misha was genuinely surprised.
Not just a magic scroll, but a scroll with divine power? How did this woman get something so precious that it could no longer be produced?
Several questions lingered, but none of them mattered.
“Oh, if there is such a thing, tell me first before I lose my mind… … !”
Novel from https://noblemtl.com
Misha hurriedly tore the scroll, and immediately a translucent barrier filled with divine energy blocked the monsters.
It’s been a really long time since I’ve been given a break.
“Hey, I’m going to be a little sloppy now. Hey, so what are you doing with Bjorn?”
Novel from https://noblemtl.com
Misha quickly approached the woman and asked what she had been curious about.
However… … .
“I, with that barbarian… … .”
“… … Yeah, so with a barbarian?”
“… … .”
“… … what? isn’t it? you’re not sleeping huh? evil! Say everything and go to sleep… … !!”
Novel from https://noblemtl.com
Misha, who had unwittingly shook the woman’s shoulder, realized that she was injured and stopped her hand.
Then he sighed and sat down on the floor.
As I became more comfortable with my body, I began to worry about my colleagues who broke up again.
“… … Will everyone be okay?”
Then a strong wind blew from the beach.
It is sticky to the point of being wet, and the cold wind embraces the salty smell of the sea.
aa-.
For some reason, I was strangely anxious today.
***
A battle of weapons to kill each other.
Injuries in such battles are common.
Even if it’s not anyone’s fault or mistake.
So explorers easily fall into superstition.
they know it too.
Injuries during battle are inevitable, and the degree of that injury sometimes depends on ‘luck’.
“Mr. Yandel, Mr. Urikfried…!”
Something similar happened to Uncle Bear today.
Drake’s claws broke Patsran’s sword, fighting on the front lines.
And the broken blade flew off and lodged in his body.
It wasn’t his fault.
If I was more agile, I would have been able to see and dodge it, but usually I don’t see it as a mistake.
You’d be right to say I wasn’t lucky.
“Blood… … ! The blood doesn’t stop… … !”
Some people live by chance even if they fall from the 10th floor, while others die just by slipping.
[Dungeon & Stone] was a game that faithfully followed one aspect of such an absurd reality, and I felt a great attraction in that point.
Until I open my eyes in this body.
“Sir! Come on treatment… … !”
Anyway, the problem was where the blade passed.
The heart was deflected, but the sharp shards pierced the lungs, and pierced them without stopping.
Penetrating wounds that bleed the most.
Even the intestines were injured.
「Lairin Ershina has cast [Heal].」
The priestess poured the heels using the remaining divine power as much as a rat’s tail, but it was meaningless.
「Currently, the target has been designated as [Dragon Offering].」
「All regeneration effects are not applied.」
Active skill of 5th grade monster Drake.
That damn Summoner b*tch walked away as soon as he saw Uncle Bear’s injury.
“Where are you looking, Barbarian?”
Shit.
Quang-!
I want to run right away and check Mr. Bear’s details, but I can’t afford that.
And it’s the same over there.
“I will be watching Mr. Abman, so everyone, focus on fighting!”
Realizing that there was nothing they could do for Mr. Bear, who was lost in death, they had no choice but to entrust him to Erwen and start the battle again.
But the situation was not good.
“… … .”
The absence of the wizard Hans J.
That alone is fatal, but Patsran, who was trying to fill the void, lost her weapon.
However, in the meantime, misfortunes overlapped, and the fragments of the broken sword pierced through Uncle Bear, further reducing the number of combatants.
“Did you say Nevarce?”
“That’s right… … .”
“I will return this bow here. They fight too.”
“… … Are you okay?”
“I don’t think he would want to die here either.”
Even though Erwen had precipitated that he would give Nevarce a weapon, the situation was still there.
“Let’s go, Yong-yong! Just a little bit more!”
Level 5 Monster Drake.
In addition, even summoners who reinforced their pets or coated them with a secondary essence that supports them from a distance.
Just looking at the cancer, the battle difficulty is very high.
To be honest, at that point, it’s not as good as fighting a level 4 monster, but in the meantime, our condition wasn’t enough to even say it was a rip off.
Erwen has run out of MP and Spirit power, and the priest’s divine power is being consumed as soon as it is full.
Even Patsran, who was in charge of the vanguard, lost his sword.
If one archer is added, the situation of the war will change drastically or it will not be possible.
‘It must be difficult to ask for help over there.’
It was bittersweet, but now I had to admit it.
Things have changed.
So the strategy needs to be revised again.
Originally, I was going to go into a long-term battle as safely as possible, checking the essence of the opponent one by one, but… … .
‘There is no time.’
Uncle Bear won’t last long.
You must end the battle as quickly as possible so that Drake’s skill is dispelled.
And for this… … .
‘Give up should give up.’
It takes a little bit of determination.
What to give up and what to gain
I have already done all the calculations.
If so, what about your opponent?
“It’s very urgent for a colleague to suffer, Barbarian!”
What can that guy who smiles arrogantly as if he has already won?
‘We’ll find out soon.’
It roars and smashes the ground.
“Behel—laa!!!”
As usual, there is no energy that immediately wraps around the body as soon as the shout is made. There was no MP to write [Feral Eruption], so it was natural.
However, the protection of the ancestors will be with them.
Because our ancestors love warriors who run with their wildness in their arms.
Well, or not.
Whik-!
As soon as the distance narrowed, he pierced his sword.
This has happened several times during the battle so far.
When he stabs his sword, I raise my shield to block it.
That alone consumes my turn, and he roughly shoves a knife into his forearm or thigh to widen the distance.
That was the pattern a while ago.
However… … .
‘Yeah, I won’t stop.’
Watching the stabbing sword, he swung his mace without raising his shield.
So now it’s his turn to choose.
Now, what are you going to do?
“… … !”
Embarrassed by the sudden change of battle composition, the man retrieved his sword and hurriedly backstepped.
Well, like a man, let’s give and receive one by one.
‘I knew this.’
As I had expected it in my heart, as soon as he opened the distance, he sprinted to the floor and turned.
Head towards the place where Drake with the summoner is on it.
‘jump.’
[Leap] by using the restored MP for just one shot.
woohoo-!
A cloud of dust that spreads over the landing point.
There was no special terrain effect ‘rebound’ because it was not in the [Giantized] state.
It wasn’t an important part.
[Huh?]
Drake opens his mouth as he sees me appearing from the other side of the forest.
Bad breath baby
Puff-!
As soon as their eyes met, they hit the snout with a mace.
[Gweek-!]
His head turned big, but it wasn’t a significant blow to the guy who was classified as a medium-large monster.
But so what?
Novel from https://noblemtl.com
My purpose in the first place was that woman sitting on top of me with an annoyed look on her face.
“Oh really! I can’t stop him!!”
It kicks the ground again and bounces off like a spring.
And that moment.
pooh.
A single sword pierces the back.
Look, man, that bastard.
Whoops, have you narrowed that distance already?
“Why are you here now!!”
The sword pierced my lungs and the summoner shouted as if looking at me hardened.
I only had doubts about that action.
“why.”
Do you think I can’t move?
It’s not like there’s a hole in the neck.
Shrek.
Stabbed by the sword, he takes a step forward.
and at the same time.
Whoops-!
Shoot the mace you are holding from top to bottom.
The goal is the head of that summoner who has been whining all the time.
Fu-wook!
The sword stuck in his back was pulled out and his body flinched, but his arm did not stop.
just that moment.
whistle.
He stabbed the sword he had retrieved again.
Fu-wook!
The part dug into is the elbow holding the mace.
Not only the skin but also the joints were smashed, and the strength of the hands was released.
Baby, I bet you’ve fought a lot with people.
What, is it common?
‘Flesh explosion.’
I gave up the arm that I couldn’t use anyway.
Pugh-!
[Acid Fluid] was aware of the fight, but didn’t he know that his body was going to explode?
Chewy profit-!
“aah!!”
The one covered in my blood and flesh groans and steps back.
This is why the essence of the corpse golem is good.
It’s a rare essence, so few people know about it.
Using life as a cost rather than MP is also quite useful in this case.
Chukkeng.
Then the mace he was holding fell and rolled on the floor.
It was probably a good problem.
Even if it’s not as good as a mace, the shield is also a great weapon.
Puff-!
The summoner, who was soon hit by the shield, creaked out of the saddle and rolled to the floor.
One arm appeared to have been bent in a strange shape.
It was a little sad.
If it had been a head, it would have been possible to die instantly.
At that time, Drake struggled and couldn’t break the cute head.
‘… … You can do it one more time.’
After falling seven times, he jumped off Drake’s back, imitating the barbarian who laughed eight times.
But what else is this?
Whoo-!
The body that had fallen suddenly soars upward.
Drake bit my back and threw it away.
The summoner’s body quickly moved away from sight, but it wasn’t all bad news.
Fu-wook!
Because Drake took advantage of the big action, Patsran drove the broken sword into his chest.
[Kye ee eh eh!!]
Did you touch your heart?
Drake struggled violently, then turned into a light and disappeared.
Finally, the summons was canceled.
The status ailment must have been relieved, so now Uncle Bear could also be healed with divine power.
First of all, what I wish for has been achieved.
Quang-!
With that thought in mind, I slumped to the floor and hurriedly stood up.
It was that moment.
Sreung-!
A dark blue sword was pointed at my neck.
“A monster.”
No matter what kind of praise he had, he had no strength to block or avoid the sword.
However, there were also good points among the misfortunes in a long time.
This guy can’t kill me.
“Everyone, stop! If you don’t want to see him die!”
Soon he shouted at my comrades, who also pointed their weapons at the stunned Summoner’s neck.
“You must remove that sword, if you don’t want to see this woman die.”
It’s like a hostage exchange ceremony.
There was such a strange silence at that time.
Tub.
Two women appeared in the forest.
“Rain, Bjorn… … ?! What the hell is this?!”
One was Misha, whom I had been looking for so much.
“You seem in trouble, Barbarian.”
One was Amelia Rainwales.
Why are these two together?
What the hell happened?
Novel from https://noblemtl.com
Many questions arose at the same time, but I focused on only one thing.
Is the appearance of these two positive variables or not?
“Amelia Reignwales, I hope you’re still alive.”
The man spoke to Amelia with the sword pointed at my neck.
“It’s better now, help us.”
“If you say that to me after doing that, does that mean there is a reason for that?”
“of course. I hid it somewhere on this island. If we die like this, we will be forgotten forever. Do you really want it to be like that?”
Amelia frowned at those words.
Having met this woman several times already, I knew it the moment I saw it.
‘Nimiral.’
That’s the expression you make when you’re thinking.
Perhaps that choice will determine our fate. I stared at Amelia without a voice.
“Belverson Erpner. Do you know of two ways to make people angry?”
“······What?”
At the words that did not suit the situation at all, the prosecutor made a stupid sound.
Either way, Amelia continued.
“First of all, stop talking in the middle. Unfortunately, I didn’t hear the second one. But my guess is that… … .”
“… … You see?”
The inspector who bit the bait couldn’t stand it and showed his curiosity.
And this was the same for me too.
Does this woman know the answer?
“… … .”
Interest gathered in the strange silence, and Amelia continued speaking without blinking an eye.
“That’s right… … .”
“… … .”
“You hit the back of the head while you’re talking.”
oh
Tadat.
The moment Amelia finished speaking, she heard a chuckle behind her.
It was obvious what
「Amelia Rainwales has cast [Self-Replica].」
The prosecutor, who realized the situation late, pushed me back and turned around.
However… … .
「Amelia Rainwales has cast [Suragak].」
It’s already late.
Aww-!!
Amelia’s clone that appeared from behind was stuck in the swordsman’s temple.
dump.
The swordsman who had fallen to the floor with his eyes lost in focus murmured.
“why… … . To you, that water, the thing is… … .”
“Yeah, that’s what I’ve been hoping for all my life.”
“But why… … .”
Amelia, who was approaching me before I knew it, said as she pressed her feet on the swordsman’s head.
“It doesn’t matter if you really hide it. You can listen to your younger brother. Because she can’t stand the interrogation.”
She was truly a reasonable woman.
