The Ruler of Alman Forest (4)
1737 Words
A wagon procession passing through the forest.
The wolves protruding from among the lush bushes barked fiercely.
Bump!
It was a sudden surprise when he ran to the lower position.
But I was already aware that they were approaching, and the adventurers responded immediately.
Kwaak!
Keying!
A wolf stuck in an arrow rolled over on the floor.
However, even though an arrow was tucked into his leg, he got up straight away and showed his teeth.
They are red maned wolves.
It was a larger and stronger species than ordinary wolves, and it was a beast species that made many victims every year.
The normal wolf was big enough to be surprised to see it in person, but the guys floated there.
It's also a large crowd over thirty.
Big beasts and armed people intertwined, causing a mad hassle.
“Some of them turn big to the left! Mark it right!”
“Watch the coachman and horse side too!”
But they responded surprisingly calmly.
Having a green plaque meant that he had enough experience as a verified adventurer.
Those who have met more than a few times, even if they couldn't be like this group of wolves.
Based on the instructions of the two team leaders, I quickly reduced the number of guys.
Kwa-duk!
Loen also caught a red maned wolf.
It was clearly the lowest level among them in terms of swordsmanship skills, but no matter how much effort and experience it had so far.
It was impossible to deal with several at the same time, but it was enough to deal with them one by one.
Feria, who is disguised as a wizard, also pretended to cast and helped him with light magic occasionally.
As a result, I succeeded in getting rid of them all.
“Woah, it’s over. There seems to be no injuries.”
Ma Wan looked around and said.
There were bloodstains on the floor, but they protected the adventurers who went directly to the battle as well as the horses that would lead the carriage from being injured.
There was nothing that would interfere with the movement.
“But now that the smell of blood is covered, you need to be more careful.”
They did as much as possible, but it was the beasts who captured this subtle b****y smell.
Although there were less than a few hours left to get out of the woods, I couldn't relax.
They started right away without delay and started walking with utmost care.
Even though they are all experienced green adventurers, they just don't show any agitation.
Since it was at stake, I had to be nervous.
So many hours passed, and we almost reached the edge of the forest.
“There is not much left to the outside. Except for the wolves attacked once, it will end without much more than I thought?”
“Hey, don’t be luckier. Whenever I say that, something pops out.”
A colleague standing next to me gave me a pinzan.
It may be because of my mood, but even when I was off on a mission, the moment I put it out of my mouth, things would burst and get busy.
In fact, among some adventurers, some really hated to say that.
Finally!
At that time, a loud roar was heard.
It was a sound that came from a distance, but it was enough that the feet that were on it rang.
The sensation that the nerves of the whole body are on the rise.
People were sweating, and the horses bound in the wagons were already writhing in horror like crazy.
“Something is coming.”
Adventurers pulled out weapons at once.
“Yai... … .”
“Sorry, sorry.”
Kuung!
The monster that appeared in front of them.
It was a huge gray wolf that easily passed the height of an adult just by standing on four legs.
Rugar, ruler of Alman Forest.
Recently, a guy who is notorious has appeared.
"Damn, that's the worst."
“What should I do now?”
The initial plan was out of order.
I couldn't get a sense of whether I should throw away the items and run away, or fight against him.
'Wait, that guy... Isn't it a monster?'
Loen, looking at Lougar, felt something strange.
It was exuding an energy that ordinary monsters could never feel.
It was like the feeling I felt when I saw Feria for the first time.
'I, spirit... … ?'
The identity of the guy I never even thought of.
It wasn't a new monster, but a spirit that established this forest as a new realm.
'I wondered what kind of guy he was, so he was a beast spirit. I'm not the one to talk to. be careful.'
The whole tone of Feria was heard.
The beast spirits were famous for being ferocious even among the spirits, and they had a very aggressive tendency.
Most of them were not even able to communicate in language, so contracts and deals were generally not the object of communication.
If I did something wrong, one mistake could run my throat.
'Wait, but if you are an intermediate spirit within the realm... … .'
Loen's face turned pale.
In her words, Lugar was also an intermediate spirit.
It was almost the same as the power of Feria that I witnessed in the realm, and I knew that at the level of the adventurers here, I would not be able to compete with hundreds of people.
Whooong!
Lougar leaps and jumps high.
A huge shadow fell over the adventurers who were staring blankly.
Kuung!
“Ahhhhhh!”
In between them, Rugar jumped into the middle and began to rave like crazy.
Adventurers tried to counterattack, but the arrows and blades missed.
He had a very agile body movement that did not fit in with his large size and strength.
The wielding paws smashed the wood, and the sharp claws left eerie scars on the floor.
Kwa-duk!
“Keep… … .”
The bounced adventurer rolled the floor.
He was completely unconscious, and the thick shield he had lifted was crushed without reason.
"Damn, what the hell are you going to do with that guy."
Despair began to appear in the eyes of adventurers.
They could instinctively know that their footsteps meant nothing.
A different opponent.
Kwaaang!
Lougar's eyes shone and a powerful shock wave erupted.
The adventurers swept away by him fell one after another.
All of them lost consciousness and passed out or collapsed and could not move.
Only Feria, who quickly unfolded the water barrier, was able to respond to the attack.
Loen was also safe thanks to her protection.
“I blocked it once… What should I do now?”
Peria asked, glanced behind him.
I hate to admit it, but it was an opponent that couldn't be beaten right now.
Even if she herself was hit by him, all it was to be summoned back to the realm, but if Loen got hit here, it was over.
There was no second chance for humans.
“I have to move from the seat first.”
Loen turned straight and ran away.
First, I had to lure him to another place.
Here, the injured people who fell apart from victory and defeat would be swept away and die.
Crew!
With his teeth exposed, Lugar immediately pursued Loen.
The speed was so different that even comparison was impossible, but whenever I tried to catch up, Feria spreads the chill and grabbed the ankle.
Loen's head turned tight amid the threat of his life.
If you were an intermediate spirit within your own realm, there weren't many existences that could handle the entire adventurer.
No matter how much Peria was together, it was impossible.
Even though Feria was also a spirit of the same level, there were many restrictions such as the location and the capabilities of the contractor, so there was no way to be a partner.
'If you go like this, you die... … .'
There is no hope of facing a fight.
It was absolutely impossible to get rid of him based on his speed.
Even the remaining mana was not enough, so there was a limit to endure.
'To live, it is only to embrace.'
Somehow I had to make him taste the magic.
I don't know if his affinity will work for this monster-like guy, but there was no other way.
Kwaang!
“Ugh!”
As an intense shock wave struck, Loen rolled over the floor.
Feria tried to stop him by rushing out a stream, but Lugar tore the water barrier in no time.
Then he immediately struck Feria.
“Ugh… … .”
Feria's impression was frowned upon by a dizzying sense.
The right side and arm were ripped off with sharp claws.
A wound that was exposed in a mess.
It wasn't enough to be recalled because he couldn't maintain shape, but he couldn't move instantly.
Huh!
Lougar tried to bite her throat.
However, Loen looked away and did not miss the moment when he was vigilant.
“It is now!”
Loen rushed to his heart and swung his mana-laden sword.
Then Lugar reacted in an instant and tried to knock his sword down, but his hind legs, which were on the ground, did not budge.
It was because Feria had already frozen the floor without even knowing it.
Loen and Feria prepared an attack from the beginning.
It was an operation that was able to be established without any dialogue, since each other's thoughts were connected through the contract.
Kwaak!
Loen's sword was stuck on his shoulder.
He didn't even try to fit the sword properly because he was a very solid body, but he pushed it in as much as possible with all his might.
dump!
Loen, who put his sword in as much as he could, fell backwards.
This was as deep as possible to pierce with his power.
“Okay… … ! No, I don't think it worked... … .”
Crumble!
Lougar's fangs looking down at him were clearly visible.
Rather, he looks more angry.
Like Feria before, Lugar didn't like to allow attacks on humans.
The guy who broke the ice on the floor rushed to Loen even more mania.
His open mouth came to his nose in no time.
'perishing… … !'
Loen, who intuited death, closed her eyes.
However, Lugar stopped tall in front of the nape of his neck.
"All… … ?”
The breath of the beast feels right before your nose.
However, when I couldn't feel any pain, I opened my eyes.
"purr… … .”
The head of the guy who has gone lean.
Hesitation arose in Lugar's gleaming eyes.
'Okay, done.'
A deep smile caught on Loen's mouth.
