Chapter 105
“Let’s go outside the cabin.”
At Enoch’s words, I turned to Luzef and Yuanna.
“We should quickly pack our things and get out of the way.”
Luzef and Yuanna nodded at my words.
I reached out to Eunji, who was spinning around on the floor, looking anxious. As if she had been waiting, Eunji climbed onto my hand and wrapped herself around my arm.
Enoch and his party stood in battle formation, and Asdal nodded at us. He held up the bow and arrow Kaiden had made for him and said,
“I’ll be up there soon too.”
I nodded obediently and went up the sloping hill with Luzef, where we could see the cabin clearly.
Yuanna quickly climbed up a tree between the hill and the cabin clearing.
“They’re coming. Banhwang, get ready.”
Asdal said to Enoch. That guy, here he goes again. It’s not like Enoch is a Pokémon.
But Enoch didn’t respond to Asdal’s words and quietly drew his sword.
As expected, the group that emerged from the bushes were Wolf-type Monsters.
I thought this cabin was in a sacred, inviolable area, but that belief has been shattered. Now I can abandon the cabin without any regrets.
I saw Enoch preparing to swing his sword, raised my ringed hand, and sent Mana in that direction.
At the same time, a powerful spark flew from Enoch’s sword as it was swung at the Monsters. It was Sword Aura.
I could see Luzef, who was sitting next to me, turning to me in surprise. But I didn’t have time to answer his question.
Enoch seemed to have realized that it was my doing, but he didn’t turn to me.
Zap.
The spark, which wrapped around the sharp blade and cut through the air, flew through the pack of Wolf Monsters and flashed brilliantly.
Thud!
The ground shook for a moment, and a huge cloud of smoke rose, mixed with the Monsters’ screams, turning the scene into chaos.
When the rising smoke cleared, the corpses of the Monsters were piled up on the dirt floor.
There was no need for Monster pattern analysis or anything. The power of the Sword Aura was so strong that Mana drained from my body, and I staggered for a moment.
Luzef wrapped his arms around my waist and lifted me up.
“I didn’t know you were so good at handling Mana.”
At Luzef’s question, I clung to him and burst out laughing.
“I wanted to surprise everyone.”
“You certainly did surprise me. But don’t use it anymore. You look like you’re about to collapse.”
I nodded and leaned on him for support, barely managing to stand up.
“What, Margaret. You could have given that Mana to me, and I could have taken them all out in one shot.”
Kaiden, who I didn’t know when he had arrived, sat down in front of me with his arms crossed and grumbled.
“I picked up the Mana you dropped in the middle and Warped.”
That’s possible? I turned to Kaiden with a horrified expression, but he noticed my gaze and burst out laughing.
“I’m the best Wizard of this era.”
He winked at me and then said,
While Kaiden was saying that, I sensed an eerie movement from behind.
“Oh, it seems to be an Orangutan monster.”
I heard Luzef’s troubled voice. In the clearing in front of the cabin, the others were cleaning up the Monster corpses and looking around.
“Ah, that guy is my natural enemy.”
Kaiden muttered irritably. I slowly turned my head, following Kaiden’s gaze.
Behind the hill where we were sitting, a huge Orangutan revealed itself.
The reason Kaiden expressed regret at the appearance of the Orangutan monster was that it was the Monster that had seriously injured him before.
I took out a Flares from my crossbody bag, reloaded the bullets, and pulled down the hammer.
“Bishop, Kaiden. Could you step back a little?”
“As expected, our Margaret. So reliable.”
I aimed the Flares at the Orangutan monster, which was slowly approaching one step at a time.
And it was just as I was about to pull the trigger.
Suddenly, Eunji, who was hanging on my arm, spun around and lowered her head over the Flares, then opened her mouth wide at the Orangutan monster.
Soon, a small spark appeared in Eunji’s mouth and turned into a huge pillar of fire.
The Orangutan monster, which was hit directly by the pillar of fire, flew far away and crashed into the cliff.
Soon, flames blazed and the Monster’s body burned.
“Wh-what.”
I was so surprised that I froze. Eunji puffed out fire with her nostrils and looked back at me triumphantly.
This small body is becoming an incredible force.
But the real problem was from this point on.
“Lady Flone, be careful! More Orangutan monsters are coming! Prince Asdal! Wolf Monsters are coming your way too!”
I don’t know when she climbed to the top of the tree, but Yuanna climbed up a tree almost five stories high and shouted at us.
Asdal was also on the same tree, drawing his bow at the Wolf-type Monsters swarming towards Enoch and Diego.
“Yeah. I knew it wouldn’t end here.”
Kaiden muttered more leisurely than I expected.
“Wouldn’t it be better for you to go down there? Luzef and I are enough here.”
“I’m not doing anything, Lady.”
Luzef whispered in a timid voice at my words.
“Why aren’t you doing anything? If I get hurt, you have to take me away and treat me right away. That’s the most important role.”
At my words, Luzef pursed his lips and looked at me with tearful eyes.
“Do you have time for that?”
Kaiden took out a dagger as if he wouldn’t allow a heartwarming atmosphere.
“That side is fine with just the Crown Prince anyway.”
Kaiden is right. Besides, Diego was there, and Asdal was helping with long-range attacks, so it could be said that that side was a more stable structure.
I swallowed hard as I watched the huge figure walking from afar, stirring up dust.
“Kaiden, then let’s do this. I have a weapon that can attack from a long distance, and you have to attack from a short distance. The Bomb and Flares have a strong ripple effect, so let’s throw these first and then proceed with the short-range attack.”
Kaiden nodded as he watched the Orangutans slowly gathering from afar.
“Can’t you use Mana anymore? One Magic spell would do the trick.”
“I overdid it because it was my first time. I wasted it all by over-injecting Mana into Enoch.”
Now, I have even reached the point where I can easily grasp how much residual Mana is left in me.
“Okay, then that’s fine. I’ll do as you say.”
Kaiden took out his dagger and slowly got up from his seat.
He twirled the dagger flamboyantly in his hand, then grabbed the handle of the dagger and took a stance.
Eunji wrapped her body around my arm and wriggled.
“Stay still this time. Your sister has a plan.”
At my words, Eunji poked her head out and tilted her head at me.
“Let’s coordinate next time. I think you and I need that a little bit.”
I don’t know if she understood my words, but Eunji kept sticking out her tongue and tilting her head.
Anyway, I loaded the Flares in one hand and took out a Flame Bomb from my crossbody bag with the other.
“Everyone, lie down when I throw this. You might get hurt.”
At my words, Kaiden lowered his body, and Luzef was already lying on the ground.
I pulled the safety pin with my teeth, threw the Bomb between the approaching Monsters, and lay down on the spot.
Boom! Bang!
A huge explosion sounded, and dirt rose, and blue blood spurted out. It seems that each Monster has a different blood color.
I immediately got up and tried to pull the trigger of the Flares, but the Orangutan monster’s running speed was faster than I thought.
Thump, thump, thump!
Two Orangutan monsters, which had quickly approached, were right in front of me.
“Fuck.”
Surprised, I kicked Luzef, who was next to me, away and pushed Kaiden away with my hand.
Then, I was punched by the Orangutan and rolled down the hill.
“Ugh.”
It hurts. It hurts so much. I might have really broken a rib this time.
“Margaret!”
Enoch, who was clearly swinging his sword in the middle of the Wolf Monster pack, quickly ran down the hill and caught me.
I don’t know how he did it, but his mobility was amazing.
“Ugh. Thank you.”
But I really broke a rib, and the impact of being held in Enoch’s arms added to the pain in my chest.
But I couldn’t afford to be complacent with the excuse of being injured.
