16 – Then, the witch…
Buck and go.
Heavy footsteps echoed several times, and the man pulled back the screen and entered the tent.
After looking around for a while, he approached the right blanket and spoke softly.
“It’s a shift.”
A very short word.
However, it was delivered to the opponent very clearly.
To the extent that I woke up from barely sleeping.
…… Up and down.
The figure under the blanket was tossing and turning.
Golden hair peeked out from the side of the swaying blanket.
The blanket that had been bubbling like that started popping up at some point.
“…… Her.”
The blond red-eyed witch moaned hoarsely with a blank face.
Soon she looked around at the man who had woken her up and inside the dark tent, then suddenly wiped her face.
…… Ah, nighttime.
Three hours of bedtime flew by like crazy. Shin Hye-young pressed her eyes tightly to stop the tears of sorrow from flowing out.
And then, the man watched the scene quietly, then yawned and headed for his tent. My job was to end this.
After Shin Hye-young washed her cat’s face several times, she stood up. Putting on the magic boots she had left by her bedside, she left the tent.
After leaving the tent, what you see are giant trees near the clearing and a pitch-black sky.
It was taller than most buildings and full of thick trees, so if you went down there, you couldn’t even see the sky.
The wizards forcibly pushed out and set up a base camp, but originally this vacant lot was also a space densely filled with trees.
A red class dungeon.
Inside the dungeon named [Troll’s Paradise], She is currently dispatched to conquer this place as part of an expedition.
In other words, this is a dangerous area where monsters may attack at any moment, so vigilance is indispensable.
And this time, it was Shin Hye-young’s turn. She stumbled awake and sat down in front of a campfire in the middle of the base camp.
I brushed her hair back several times to clear her mind.
It was neither the first nor the last, it was right in the middle, so I was much more sober than the other days.
Jaak—! She tried to hit her cheek lightly, but hit it hard. Thanks to that, the people who kept her night watch with her began to stare at her.
It’s definitely a rather embarrassing thing. But that would have been enough, but their gaze was weak, but even mixed with hostility.
Shin Hye-young knew that, but she didn’t show it. She frowned slightly and put her hand over her bonfire.
Parachute.
She knew that she was called that. She was
She was also herself, she was wondering why she was able to join the expedition, and she was feeling bewildered.
Green – Yellow – Red – Black
This is a rating that indicates the difficulty of dungeons and events, and at the same time, it was also the wizard’s rank stipulated by the system.
Among the black ranks, the highest rank, there were people who did not know magic at all, so the rank indicated by the system was in fact unrelated to pure shamanism and magic skills.
However, there was no significant difference in terms of combat because the higher the rank, the more compulsory the skills were acquired.
A kind of expedient.
From noble mtl dot com
Nevertheless, countless wizards entered the dungeon to raise their level, even through that method, to seek survival.
Ironically, it was risking their lives, but they still tried to qualify for the test by entering the dungeon and filling their quota.
If rust is yellow.
The emperor is the enemy.
If it’s an enemy, it’s black.
Prove that you are qualified to be promoted by entering and attacking the ‘Awakening’ dungeon, which is one level higher than your level. Since it was a journey to conquer a place higher than one’s own level, it was clear that it was a very dangerous task, but many wizards wanted to jump in.
However, most of them were blocked from entering the dungeon, which was the prerequisite.
Because, the ‘Awakening’ dungeon was very rare even in all grades, and it was a one-time use that disappeared once conquered, so the number of people to enter was limited.
The red level Awakening dungeons were particularly bad, and the odds of entering a new witch without at least one mate were very small.
Because it was a position that magic towers and wizards all over the world were aiming for.
“Shin Hye-young, a yellow-class wizard. Please finish preparations for the expedition by two days.”
“…… Yes?”
So when Shin Hye-young heard her call-up notice that came out of nowhere, she was taken aback.
No matter how much she cried and begged, she didn’t even apply and she passed.
To be honest, I was very embarrassed.
Shin Hye-young also wondered if she would be buried by someone who seemed to hate her.
Although she concluded that she couldn’t possibly do it until she consumed such a valuable seat.
Anyway, moving on to the next rank was something she also wanted, so she gladly complied.
In order to somehow survive and protect her loved one, she took up her parachute and participated in the expedition.
Well, thanks to that, she was looked at with envy and jealousy.
I heard that it was a special parachute that suddenly took place two days ago.
No, they must have bribed and entered.
Anyhow, during the 15-day expedition, Shin Hye-young, who was naturally shy, had a fairly thick face.
She was able to ignore the stares of others and concentrate on her own work.
She silently watched the barrier magic throughout her nighttime hours.
She spread out several layers of expensive equipment and barriers, so she was on high alert, but you never know what might happen in a dungeon.
You never know. True to the name of the dungeon, Troll’s Paradise, trolls destroying magic waves may appear, and maybe even Assassin trolls hiding from everything.
‘Is that a wild idea?’
The burning bonfire made Shin Hye-young’s body drowsy, but she stayed alert and did her best to keep her vigil.
It was quite the opposite of the other two giggling vigilantes.
“… ….”
An hour and a half passed like that. It was time to switch to the next vigil.
Suddenly, Shin Hye-young began to relax. It was the moment she was about to wake up for her next vigil.
Fishing——!
It was as if I had suddenly heard that. She collapsed on her body as she tried to get up, and immediately landed on her floor. At the same time, I saw the bodies of the other vigilantes collapse like puppets with broken strings. Seeing it, she cried out.
“It’s an ambush——!!!”
And then, she is Kwaang—! She hit the buzzer on the nightstand with her fist. Beep beep——! A sharp beep echoed through the base camp.
Dadadadadak—. Expedition members quickly popped out from all over the tent, and there were also those who fell with daggers stuck between their foreheads.
But the culprit who threw it was nowhere to be seen. The expedition members continued to fall one by one. The expedition leader exclaimed urgently.
“Artificial sun! Float the artificial sun right now!”
If you float it, all barriers and defenses will be useless. No one replied that all the monsters in the forest would come running. In fact, it was as if it had already been pierced.
Giying─
The small sun created by the concentration of magical energy quickly soared over the camp.
It was only then that I began to notice the sights around me.
“…… Oh, God of Magic.”
Shin Hye-young, who had been lying flat on her floor even then, lifted her head slightly and checked her in the forest.
And she looked.
A troll wearing a navy blue hood and a cancer suit and her naked troll carrying an antenna on her back.
As the owner of a demonic eye, she was able to accurately identify their identities.
[ Assassin Troll ]
[ It is more nimble than any troll, and moves stealthily. Assassination is their specialty. ]
[ Antenna Troll ]
[ Despite having weaker bodies than any troll, they can get in the way of any wave. Her specialties are radio waves and mana jamming. ]
“…… Gee, f*ck.”
For the first time in her life, Shin Hye-young put the word ‘f*ck’ in her mouth.
Percussion—! She hit herself on the snout and then hit her head as well.
Your mouth… , No, her head was straight.
Koo-ung!
Kwaang—!
Koo-ung!
And to make matters worse, other trolls began to appear behind them. At first glance, it was a huge amount.
Seeing that, Shin Hye-young was in a panic for a while, but eventually she woke up crying and eating mustard.
And then, casting magic, ran forward.
f*ck. I’m going to have to survive somehow!!!
It was the moment when the weak and naive witch transformed into a strong warrior.
