Chapter 171
Episode 171:
The winners of the competition take action.
He majestically approached the female, paying no attention to the wounds on his body.
Kuwoong Kuwoong!
The male’s head stretched out its front paws towards the female, making a crying noise as if to say ‘I won!’
Kwazijic –
It was separated from the neck as if torn by the teeth of an animal.
Puhwaaaaak –
The steel bear’s blood was a light silver color like its body.
Wow?
The female, whose head was covered in the male’s blood, momentarily couldn’t understand the situation and tilted her head.
He had a face like he didn’t understand what he was looking at or what the liquid that had been poured on his head was.
The female, who had belatedly recognized the male’s death for a moment, tried to roar in anger and sadness.
Kuwa… Quad Deuk –
The head of the female with her head raised high was cut off and rolled around on the ground.
“This feels quite… bad.”
After cutting off the female’s head, I frowned at the jingling sound of my hand.
The feeling of cutting through a piece of iron was worse than I expected.
Goosebumps appear from my hands to my entire body, and my grip feels numb.
Even though I was wearing an aura, that feeling still did not go away.
Wow!
The steel bears were angry at the appearance of the enemy.
Their own people died.
In addition, the population was so small that one of the beloved females even died.
Angry males come running.
Lanos runs towards the males and shouts at me.
“Don’t touch the female! “If he dies too, we’ll be in trouble!”
“All right.”
I nodded when he said that we shouldn’t hunt everyone.
If we kill everything here, it could cause chaos in the ecosystem.
So we only need to take what we need.
Crack.
The steel bear’s body is literally like a piece of iron, so it would have been a bit difficult to deal with if I hadn’t lost my strength in advance.
“I think this should be enough.”
After catching three males, Lanos lowered his great sword and said to stop hunting any more.
Crrrrr-
We followed him down and the steel bear growled at us.
Perhaps because he had been attacked, he did not try to attack me even though he showed his teeth.
Rather, they are afraid and trembling.
I was overwhelmed by what Lanos and I had seen before.
“Aren’t you going? “You’d better run now.”
Lanos swings his greatsword menacingly and chases away the steel bear.
The steel bear bared its teeth and swung its front paw at Lanos.
Soon he lowers his head and runs away to avoid Lanos.
This is because they knew that no matter how much they rushed and attacked, they could not win, so they felt that it was better to retreat like this than to attack and die.
“Hmm, I can eat this much for a week.”
We caught as many as five steel bears.
Even if you are a big eater, it seems impossible to be able to eat an amount that weighs over 1 ton in just a week.
“Then let’s go back.”
“Is this the end?”
“Hmm… Normally it would have ended when the sun sets, but I’m lucky today. “I didn’t expect to meet a group of steel bears so quickly.”
He kept saying that he was very lucky, and began to untie the rope from his shoulders and tie it to the steel bear’s legs.
“Where…”
I quietly watched him take care of the steel bear.
Molars, ears, heart, etc… Unlike the center, which only took care of important parts, the south did not.
He said that even a single piece of leather was a precious resource, so he took it without missing a single piece.
I also laugh at the sight of him smiling brightly, saying that he will have a good meal tonight while carrying two heads on his shoulders.
The head of a steel bear was hung on both shoulders, and a rope woven with the legs of the steel bears was tied around the waist.
Five of them weigh over 5 tons.
Was it possible to lift that enormous weight with human strength?
Or, furthermore, is it possible for me to lift it by myself?
“Oh, would you please listen to this? I guess this is annoying right now…”
“Oh, I understand.”
I took the great sword he handed me.
Kuuuuung –
I hastily took my hand away before I could receive the great sword.
A tremendous roar came from the great sword that fell to the ground.
“Hey, what is it? “Why are you spilling it?”
He clicks his tongue and raises his great sword.
Then he handed me the great sword again, telling me not to make a mistake this time.
Silent profits –
crazy.
The joints and muscles that extend from my hands to my shoulders felt like they were going to break.
How on earth did this great sword come to be this heavy?
If I hadn’t strengthened my body with auras in advance, one of my arms would have fallen off.
“Oh, I’m glad to receive it. “Why did you drop it if you were going to receive it so well?”
Lanos smiles brightly as he looks at me holding the great sword and looking around.
I felt dumbfounded by his subsequent words.
It is said that until now, except for a few people, no one has been able to lift their own sword.
I thought it was worth it.
He himself says he doesn’t know why something so light is so difficult, but you won’t know unless you experience it.
How heavy is this?
I broke into a cold sweat because of the sense of danger that my arm would be cut off if I did not use my Aura.
“How many kilograms is this?”
“that? Um… well. I think it’s probably about 0.5 tons? It could probably go further than that. “Iron is made by condensing all iron.”
I was dumbfounded by his indifferent words and felt a pull in the back of my neck.
It’s not even 100kg, it’s at least 500kg.
Hearing that it might weigh more than that, I supported the sword on the ground and swept my face with one hand.
How can there be so many ignorant people?
Or should I consider myself fortunate to have someone like that on my side?
“What are you doing? “Aren’t you going?”
Lanos, who has already moved far away, looks back at me and shouts.
How did they carry that enormous weight?
Looking closely, I saw a thin aura covering his body.
No matter how much they borrow the power of Aurors, Aurors are not omnipotent.
It was a consumable power, and each person had a limit to the power that an Auror could draw.
Dragging a weight of more than 5 tons while sweating profusely was possible because his limitations were far superior.
‘It’s really ignorant… but it’s amazing.’
I sighed at the contradictory nature of myself, where the mindset that all you need is strength seems ignorant, but in the end, the fact that you can achieve it is considered amazing.
I was about to sigh again at the fact that I had to drag this heavy greatsword along with him moving his muscles dynamically.
That’s the most extreme -.
I couldn’t carry a great sword.
If that happens, it won’t last long and your aura will wear out.
That’s why he dragged the great sword on the ground.
It didn’t seem like it would be scratched to this extent, and Lanos, who saw it, didn’t complain much.
His face seemed satisfied just because I brought a great sword.
I walked like that for a while.
Unlike when I came, the way back to the castle was very slow.
Since I was carrying a heavy weight, it was inevitable that my speed would slow down.
When I got about halfway, I saw Lanos, who had been leading in the distance, stopping.
“What… Eup!”
I tried to talk to him, but quickly covered my mouth.
I saw Kairos tribesmen passing by beyond the bush where Lanos was hiding.
‘It’s dangerous now.’
Normally, Lanos would have rushed at him without hesitation.
But not now.
I knew full well that running towards those guys now that I was so low on stamina while carrying the steel bear would be suicidal.
‘Let’s wait for now and move later.’
‘All right.’
I exchanged glances with him and held my breath.
The Kairos tribesmen were busy moving about wherever they were going.
The number was not small, but there were more than twenty people in front of me.
They were all holding deadly-looking weapons, and the atmosphere was tense, as if they were about to attack somewhere.
‘Isn’t that a castle over there?’
The direction they were heading was not Easton. In fact, it was the opposite direction from Easton.
No matter how you look at it, the sight of such a large number of people heading into an atmosphere of battle was extremely suspicious.
“Go quickly!”
Among them, there was a warrior commander who was not seen easily.
When a warrior leader appears, it is when he is clearly trying to conquer.
Since we failed to attack Easton this time, I thought we would take care of ourselves for a while, but I forgot that they are battle fanatics.
These guys are fighting for the sake of fighting, so in a way, it was strange that they didn’t move even after losing one of their commanders.
It was only when they all left and we couldn’t even see their backs that we let out the breath we had been holding.
“What are they planning to do again this time?”
Lanos frowned as he looked at the spot they had passed.
Since their atrocities have been more than once, I am concerned that they are doing something.
It was no wonder that his nerves were on edge, especially since he had swallowed one tribe this time.
“What do you find when you go over there?”
“Hmm…”
He thought about my words for a moment.
I look in the direction the Kairos tribesmen are heading to see if anything comes to mind right away.
“What was there?”
Even though I’ve lived in the South for a long time, I wonder why I don’t know where everything is.
Seeing as how he went out hunting, I guess he’s not so stupid that he can’t memorize geography.
“Oh right! Over there… huh?”
His bright face suddenly darkened as he remembered what would come out if he went that way.
He suddenly got up from hiding in the bushes, as if something that shouldn’t have happened had happened.
“crazy! “We have to go back right away!”
That’s natural, but his complexion is too pale.
“What’s wrong with you? “There’s something over there.”
“Run now! “I’ll tell you as I go!”
He gritted his teeth and started running at full speed.
Although he said he would tell me while running, he kept his mouth shut so that he could return to the castle as quickly as possible.
“beast of prey! “Open the door right now!”
As soon as he arrived at the castle, he entered the door opened by the guard, spitting out a password.
And without even thinking about untangling the rope, he ran straight to the command barracks.
“The Kairos are attacking the elves!”
I followed him in and frowned at his words.
What he said was the same as saying that these Kairos guys are causing accidents and we need to stop them.
“Ah… I saw a sign, but I didn’t know it would actually happen.”
At his words, the Marquis of Easton, who was talking to Count Warrug, raised his hand and touched his forehead.
He presses his temples with his fingers as if he has a headache and asks him to tell me in detail.
Lanos described what he saw on his way back from hunting.
The Marquis of Easton’s expression gradually hardened as he listened to Lanos’ words.
“Lord Bane. “You probably guess that this is a problem that cannot be taken lightly, right?”
“yes.”
“If they take over the elves, the situation will completely turn around. “It must never be left like that.”
“It’s going to be really busy as soon as we get here.”
“I’m sorry.”
“it’s okay. “Because the well-being of the country is at stake.”
“okay. “Thank you.”
The Marquis of Easton, who was smiling faintly at Count Warrug, summoned the executives with fierce eyes.
