Aaaaaaaang―!
Trapped in a corner, Ibella vomited blood. It was the result of getting Alba Rick's ax to protect her Noah..
“cool, cool!”
Blood flowing through the nose and mouth.
And that's not all. It felt as if all the bones in my body were shattered as I was caught in the shockwave..
‘I can't fall like this…….’
I have to protect Noah.
So I tried to maintain consciousness, but even that was not easy. As I slowly lost my consciousness, a warm feeling suddenly wrapped around my body..
saaaaa!
light shining softly.
Then, gradually, the blurred consciousness returned. When the blurry vision turned clear, I saw a familiar face before long..
“La, Laurea……?”
“oh! come to my senses?”
Turquoise hair and amber eyes.
Saint, Laurea Lo Charpell.
While reciting healing prayers, she found Ibella half-open and spoke to her..
“Once all the broken places have been healed, are there any other painful parts??”
“yea, i guess so.”
Ibella nodded silently..
It hurt enough to let go of consciousness until just now, but now, like a lie, all the pain is gone. Probably thanks to the divine spell of healing..
“Ibella!”
Then, suddenly, someone jumped out of nowhere and hugged Ibella..
The black-haired girl, Noah. She muttered in a tearful voice as if in relief..
“Ooh, I'm glad you're okay.”
“yeah i was lucky.”
Isabella smiled lightly..
I really thought I was done, but I never thought I'd get help like this.
“By the way, the fact that Laurea came…….”
It must mean that Ulan also came..
Ibella reflexively looked around. But Ulan was nowhere to be seen, so when I tilted her puzzled face.
Laurea has spoken.
“Are you looking for Ulan??”
“ok, but i can't see it where are you?”
“We don't know either..”
“……what?”
what is this all of a sudden?
You don't know where Ulan is after disappearing together. This asked Bella blankly, and Laurea shrugged her shoulders in reply..
“We were together and suddenly disappeared.”
“disappear? Where?”
“Oh, no need to worry. 'Cause I'm gone with the white wolf.”
The moment the existence of Baekrang was mentioned.
Ibela reflexively let out a sigh of relief. If that's the case, it probably means you're not in a dangerous situation..
“So if my business is over, I wonder if I will join this side soon..”
When Laurea's guess was over, Ibella nodded silently. As the conversation ended, a familiar voice tapped on my ear..
“me, by the way.”
Paladin, Ian Marcus.
Ian, who was standing in front with a divine shield at the forefront, pointed at the giants Dillia was casting extension magic on and asked..
“Is that the giant king?”
“No, I'm a descendant of the King of Giants..”
“……yes?”
Ian replied with a surprised face.
It wasn't just that he was perplexed. Sven, who was preparing to attack next to him, also reacted at the bottom of the absurd.
“A monster like that is a member of the family?”
Ian and Sven.
The strong of the Masters, the moment they saw Albaric, they instinctively felt it. Those giants are much stronger monsters than the combined strength of the two..
So I thought it was the giant king Largtan, one of the lords of the abyss, but of course I was surprised when the answer came back saying that I was only a member of his family..
On the other hand, unlike the reaction of the two, Laurea's reaction was calm. Laurea, in particular, shrugged his shoulders as if he was so surprised..
“Why are you reacting like that all of a sudden? At first glance, it looks similar to Asteban's family..”
“no, it is…….”
Still, there was a sense of intimidation that was a little different from Asteban's family that he dealt with before..
The moment Ian blurted out his words.
Noah, who had been silent, interrupted the conversation..
“Strictly speaking, it's a bit different..”
“huh? how is it different?”
“In the original work, Albaric was said to be as strong as Asteban's 12 clans combined..”
Starting with those words, Noah gave a brief explanation of the raid leader, Albaric. Then, the faces of the group quickly turned dark..
“Uh, you mean Ulan had a hard time too??!”
“It was. Oh, of course, the uhlans back then weren't as strong as they are now..”
“no matter how…….”
I don't think Ulan is an opponent that will struggle..
Ian drooped his shoulders with a face of rapidly diminished confidence. Sven scratched her head as if he was getting annoyed too..
“then what do i do?”
“Maybe we should wait for Ulan to come??”
“But you know when?”
“that…….”
Pertisia shuts her mouth as if at a loss for words.
Then Noah shook his head..
“No, you don't have to wait for Ulan..”
“huh? that means……?”
“It's saying that we can deal with it with just us gathered here..”
After answering, Noah grinned..
It was a confident smile. On the other hand, Sven refuted as if he was talking about something..
“It's a little bit different than before. Earlier, you said that only Ulan could deal with that monster.?”
“Yes, it was. But that was only true for the 'original'..”
Ulan in the original work is optimized for dealing with giants to the extent that he was once called the 'giant slayer' instead of his name..
However, that doesn't mean that you can't deal with the giants without Ulan. So Noah continued his words with his eyes twinkling..
“Currently, you challenged and passed the ordeal much earlier than the original. In other words, it is stronger than it appeared in the original..”
Six warriors who passed the ordeal.
one more here. There is a reason why Albaric can be dealt with with only the current number of people..
“I know Albaric's weakness.”
“……!”
That Noah is a player.
Having played the original game hundreds of times, she has annihilated the Giant King's forces many times, even though she has not been able to subdue the abyss itself..
Of course, it was a splendid achievement thanks to the use of the seven warriors in the right place, but anyway, he knew how to deal with Albaric..
“That guy has a weakness?”
“uh, what weakness?”
“If you cut or break your head, you die..”
“……that no one is the same?”
Sven muttered in an absurd tone.
At his reaction, Noah scratched his head awkwardly as if he had forgotten to speak..
“Ah, what I just said is a subjugation strategy against the giants. Giants can only be destroyed by breaking their heads..”
A total of four hearts of giants.
Even if you're lucky enough to break three hearts, if you don't break the other hearts, they will regenerate right away..
That's why it was better to cut off the head than aim for the heart..
“Albaric's real weakness is something else. It doesn't lead to instant death, but it's a lethal vital point that can temporarily incapacitate..”
“somewhere?”
“left eye.”
An immediate answer without hesitation.
Sven stared straight at Albaric..
“eyes covered with blindfolds?”
“Yes, if you attack that way, you'll be in a groggy state for a while, then you can break your head..”
“what? Surprisingly simple?”
“Simple. The only problem is that it's not very easy to attack..”
Eyes beyond one eye. Albaric's vital points were revealed, but it was difficult to match them..
First of all, moving to his head was accompanied by considerable risk. Albaric won't wait patiently until then..
but nothing to worry about.
“Still, if it's Sven, it's possible.”
“……how are you sure of that?”
“That's because he knows Sven's skills. I believe it's possible if we distract Albaric and create a gap..”
A hunter who has reached master's level.
Sven Isaac, who appears in the original work, uses the realm in a slightly special way. It is a method of giving an area to each arrow..
Of course, you can't use it often, but if you use it well, you'll be able to get through the gap and deliver a critical hit to Albaric..
“ok, i get it I'll give it a try.”
Receiving Noah's expectations, Sven hesitated for a moment, then nodded. As if he realized that only he could do it.
“great. Then first…….”
Having obtained Sven's consent, Noah explained the strategy he had just thought of to the party. Eventually, as the explanation was about to end, an urgent voice was heard..
“Whatever it is, it's fine, if there's a plan, hurry up, get ready! Suppressing, too, is, now, the limit!”
It was the voice of Dillia, who had suppressed Albaric with star cluster magic. Shortly after her warning was over, her magic spells were broken all at once..
Kwajik! waaaaaang!
A spell that scatters as fragments of starlight.
Soon after, Albaric, who had been suppressed by magic, let out the anger he had been enduring all along..
【Something like a mortal―!】
A roar that reverberates through the cave.
Along with that, Noah's cry continued..
“Then go to each location!”
“Yes, got it!”
“I will follow your instructions.”
After each answer, the warriors quickly moved to the designated spot by Noah..
A descendant of the giant king, Largtan. It was to fight the battle against the raid leader Albaric..
3.
Meanwhile at that time.
Fragments of light pouring down like countless stars.
Ulan calmly watched Kazan's last appearance. On the other hand, Baek-Rang, who was with him, circled around the spot where Kazan had been until just before her and couldn't take her foot off her..
[beep! kiying…….]
That would be natural. To him, Kazan must be the old master he met after a thousand years..
Moreover, if you consider all the repeated times, it is like having a short reunion and then parting after an eternity of time..
Ulan also stood and waited for Baekrang for a while as if he understood his feelings..
When it's been so long.
It was only after all the fragments of light scattered from Kazan's body had disappeared that White Rang moved forward..
However, he looked back at the place where Kazan was, as if he still had lingering lingering feelings. And then, Ulan, who had been silent all this time, opened her mouth..
“let's go back now.”
Kazan achieved its purpose and disappeared.
More than anything, he probably doesn't want Baekrang to spend all of his time tied up in a place like this. So Ulan stared at Baekrang and continued talking..
“We still have work to do.”
To inherit the will of Kazan.
To go further and win against the abyss.
In order to achieve this, there is no room for wasting time in a place like this. This was enough time for mourning, so Ulan turned around..
Baekrang, who had been looking up at him silently, also took a step and stood by Ulan's side as if he had understood Ulan's words..
[aww woo!]
a roar that follows at the same time.
As soon as the long, sad sound of crying stopped, a white mist covered the hall..
It was the fog created by Baekrang..
After a while, the fog that covered my eyes cleared away, and the surrounding scenery changed..
“this is…….”
It was a familiar space.
The place where the other party stayed before meeting Rudric Kazan by Baek Rang. The murals on the walls were proof of that..
“I don't think there are any other guys.”
It seems to have moved first.
Or maybe he's wandering around to find himself who suddenly disappeared. By the time I was making these assumptions.
[Greung! purr!]
Suddenly, the white wolf patted the body..
The guy pointing to the bottom of the mural behind him. It's like he's telling you to look there, Ulan squatted down and looked at the floor underneath the mural..
Then I opened my eyes round.
“This…….”
What was written there was a short message (傳言).
Judging from the round handwriting, it is assumed that Dillia left it behind. Ulan read the message at once without hesitation..
After a while, he tilted his head..
“hmm? It is said that Noah was attacked and moved first to help.?”
It was natural to question.
It was because a decent enemy would not be an opponent for Noah and Ibella. Above all, there are two divine beasts with master's powers..
‘Still, choosing to join…….’
It can be interpreted that an enemy that is difficult to deal with with the troops alone has attacked..
Shortly after realizing this.
Ulan's face hardened..
“Could it be Largtan??”
Or maybe it's his family.
A formidable enemy who fought and won victories many times in his past life. Among Largtan's family, the warriors of the giants boast the strongest power by far..
“……Albaric.”
If it was an attacker, Noah and Ybela alone would never be able to deal with it. When Ulan frowned at this,.
woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo―!
A sudden loud roar and considerable vibration shook the entire space. At the sudden phenomenon, Ulan immediately turned to Baekrang and said:.
“Take me where the other guys are.”
Ulan instinctively realized.
That things are going badly.
Meanwhile, Baekrang sniffed and started looking for the way. Then he immediately kicked the ground as if he had found his way..
[gurrureung!]
A wagging tail as if to follow me.
Ulan pursued Baekrang across the darkness at high speed. The epicenter of the roar and vibration. towards the battlefield where his comrades are.
