Taming The Villainesses chapter 298

(EP.298)Master #2

298 – Master of the Forest #2

heard of spiders

There is a very beautiful pond in this eastern forest.

There’s an evil, huge boss centipede guarding it, so everyone can’t even get close to it.

He said that the poison and bizarre magic he possessed were so demanding and vicious that even Kublai, the owner of the forest, would not dare to attack him.

How strong is it really?

It is true that I was a little scared and trembling.

And the moment I looked at the reality of such a being, I lost my resolve slightly at the size far beyond what I had imagined.

Zzzzzzzzz-.

The figure that appeared after clearing the fog was a huge centipede.

A head extended to a height similar to that of an Auger D’ordor. Fierce fangs that split left and right. long antennae.

I’m so scared… .

silkygoat was the goat. cry

No matter how proficient in dealing with the 6th order magic, even the biological fear of the giant poisonous insect could not be shaken off.

– Pay attention to the language, kid. Even that Solomon paid tribute to me… !

Slurry-.

The head of a centipede, as big as an elephant’s body, approaches my nose. This isn’t a centipede, it’s an Imoogi or a dragon, or something like that. Or do you have some soul beads?

“… … .”

I was stiff and frozen like a rat eye-to-eye with a snake. This guy is strong.

I thought it was just a beast, but rather than a beast… , spirits or ghosts. It seemed like something close to that. Can I win if I hit the magic with all my heart?

Of course, combat has a lot of different parts from figures and simulations in the head. I didn’t really want to fight this guy.

A being stronger than you can imagine.

It’s like I’ve lived a far longer time than I can recognize… . It’s hard to even look into the status window.

He said while I was thinking.

-Hey, you seem to understand what I’m saying. Let me say it again. Who am I? who are you again

Shh.

A calm thought began to flow through my mind at his question. It’s true that for a moment I froze because of the shocking and overwhelming visuals.

The guy was asking to talk to me. It is a natural fact that if we can have a conversation, solving the problem will be easier.

“I… , the great centipede Angala. My name is Teo Gospel from Beyond the Wall. It is an honor to have met Angala-sama.”

-Tao Gospel beyond the barrier. It’s a name I’ve never heard of. But it’s a smell I’ve never smelled before. You smell like a hateful wizard.

Susssss-.

Countless legs rattle the floor at the same time. I felt like I was going to get goosebumps, but I kept my composure because if I showed a nervous attitude I would be eaten up.

“You will smell like a wizard. Because I am a wizard.”

It was when I answered confidently.

Moon crack, moon crack!

The legs that were spinning around me hit the floor, making a very loud noise.

-I hate wizards. Solomon. Even now, when I think of the time when I was beaten by him, my wounds still ache. Thanks to you, some of my beautiful legs fell off.

silkygoat was the goat. cry

Now that I saw it, there was a large scarred part of the body that seemed only straight and smooth. It looks like it has been hit with a fairly strong magic. There are no legs in that part.

“uh… , I am very sorry. Beautiful legs with scars.”

-Yes. After hundreds of years of molting, it’s finally a beautiful look. Solomon was a ruthless man who knew no beauty.

“Well, you are still beautiful enough.”

My huge body trembles at my words. I could vaguely notice that it was the ‘laugh’ of this beast.

– A blatant compliment. But even if you live a long life, you won’t get used to the praise of beauty. Teo Gospel beyond the wall. You are a gero with a tongue like the wind.

Does Abu, whom Ira and I have been training for a long time, help? There’s nothing wrong with experiencing the world.

“It’s not an obvious compliment, the surface is really shiny, so it’s like a jewel.”

-Yes, my body is like a jewel. In fact, all kinds of spirits and big beasts came from far away to see my body. But Solomon made a scar!

“… … .”

-My legs, which used to be beautiful in pairs, have turned into odd numbers. This pain, this terrible despair, child, can you understand?

“I understand. I, too, would be very sad if my arms and legs were odd.”

– He’s a pretty smart kid.

In a few conversations, I was able to learn a lot of information.

The point is that this gigantic being, Angala, has a connection with the Demon King Solomon. And to the point that he is extremely hostile to Solomon.

I must keep it a secret that I am the grandson.

-That’s why it’s called Tae-oh gospel, a half-elf wizard. What happened to my pond? Are you here to eat me?

“No, it is not. I need the evening primrose in bloom over there. Someone in my group was bitten by a centipede. I have to cure the poison.”

-aaah, centipede poison. I mean, these days, young and young guys bite anyone without a habit. Let me apologize on behalf of my people.

“… … .”

He’s more of a gentleman than I thought. Unlike his terrifying outward appearance, he was a cultured being who could solve problems through conversation.

-But.

“… However?”

I have an uneasy feeling.

However.

But.

Because the words after this were mostly against my heart.

-But I can’t give you my stuff for free. That’s not how the world works. Evening primroses haven’t bloomed in a while since that huge, hateful barrier was created, so they’re few in number.

“That word… ?”

-I’ll hand you something worth exchanging. Give me what you have in exchange for the evening primrose. This is enough for me to give up too.

indeed.

Is it barter?

It was something I hadn’t thought of at all, but as he said, this is a reasonable and understandable story.

Then, all of a sudden, I wondered if this gigantic venomous poison ivy-Angala was trying to lure me in, so I asked.

“You’re not going to give me my life or anything like that, are you?”

Angala trembled at my question and started to laugh.

– Half-fairy, Tae-oh Gospel over the wall. You mean taking your life and spending it somewhere? Your life on this earth is only as useful as manure for flowers to bloom.

“okay.”

My life is only worth that much. It was a bit harsh, but I was glad that he didn’t seem to want to eat me.

He’s really big, so even if he said he would eat the same thing as me, it wouldn’t even send a message.

So what do you usually eat?

In order to maintain that large size, it needs more food than an elephant… .

Just right.

At that moment, the two hard teeth collided against each other, making a great impact sound.

ㅡ Half fairy! You are thinking very rudely! I don’t need to eat anything in life, unlike things these days. That’s what freshness is.

“Is it fresh?”

The more you talk, the more strange keywords come out.

* * *

Angala was as old as I expected.

From the size of a human palm, it has grown so large that it is difficult to measure its length, so it is impossible to count how many years it has been.

– The world was originally an age of big beasts, spirits, fairies and gods. Right now, like this, I’m living in a cramped pond. At that time, I also had many disciples.

Angala started telling stories I didn’t ask.

I don’t know if it’s exciting for someone to listen to the story, but it would be beneficial to keep the negotiations going like this.

So I pretended to be interested in the story and asked back.

“If you had a disciple, would you have taught me something?”

-Yes. I taught you all kinds of magic and sorcery. It’s called magic now. In fact, they were part of the teaching to become a Godhead, a transcendent. There were a lot of nymphs too. Eugene… , methanol… .

Right.

Come to think of it, even the demon king Solomon said that magic was a tool, not a purpose. A tool to reach the logic of this world. If you lived from the age of the spirits, what age would you be?

Then said the great Angala.

-Tao Gospel beyond the wall. You seem to have quite the talent to sharpen the good and the Tao. Won’t you learn from me?

“Is that really true?”

-Yeah, in an era where fairies have fallen, you’re good enough to understand what I’m saying. There is a slightly more complicated procedure, but… . I need an errand man urgently.

“Five.”

ㅡI am not telling anyone that you are listening to me. Solomon also asked me to teach, but I refused. It was because he saw through the evil in his heart, and in the end he was right.

“Well… .”

-500 years, no, 400 years is enough to learn. In the meantime, keep this pond clean and run some errands for me. this and that… .

Even if it was a country that responded moderately with exclamation, I couldn’t get past this.

“Hey, Angala-sama. I’m sorry, but I can’t live that long.”

The great Angala was startled by my words.

ㅡWhy? Fairy would be enough to live like an old tree? No matter how half-elves are, is it possible to live 500 years?

“Well, my body is a little special… .”

It was time for me to explain. sssss. I felt the wind blowing from somewhere. I could tell it was Angala’s breath.

Smelling me, that she was reading my information.

a few seconds.

However, after a long silence that felt as if all the time I had lived until now had passed.

Angala said in a voice that seemed to be filled with nostalgia and bitterness.

ㅡ Really. did that happen You smell familiar. One is the hateful Solomon’s. And one from my dear friend… .

dear friend?

It was time to open my mouth to ask what the hell was that.

– I have changed my mind. I can’t let you go You will be the manure for the evening primrose here.

aaa-!

A sudden attack was directed at me.

Thousands of legs rushing towards me like knives! I quickly chanted at the attacks coming from all directions like a cogs cramping.

─Mana Shield!

Kaga-ga-gak, clang!

If I had slowed down the tension, I would have changed like the skeletons of this pond.

“What are you doing all of a sudden!”

Angala did not answer my angry questions.

ㅡ… … .

Silent, she was just a monster with ruthless killing intent, no different from all the monsters I’ve seen so far.

“Chun.”

Finding out that I am of Solomon’s blood must have changed my mind.

It is said that he is a god who has lived for a long time and has cultivated things that he does not know whether it is the Tao or the magic, so it is quite possible to know who I am by the smell alone.

I also looked too funny.

The only thing that bothered me was the part where he called me his dear friend.

A feeling of dizziness that I’ve been feeling since I entered this forest. I couldn’t stay still when I thought that I might be able to resolve that strange feeling.

“If I win, you will have to answer my questions. I will also bring evening primroses.”

-Your attitude is the problem. It would have been better if he had brought the corpse and mourned in front of me… .
