Episode 82
What is this crazy guy saying all of a sudden?
I got goosebumps all over my body.
The words he suddenly approached with were ‘I was hiding that from you’ and ‘I didn’t know.’
No, leaving everything else aside, the look in his eyes was too burdenso.
“What are you talking about all of a sudden?”
Normally, it would have been normal for to frown at my words like this.
But now Ahar didn’t see anything like that at all.
Rather, he was showing a soft smile.
His sudden change was enough to catch off guard.
“I guess I was too rude.”
“Did I eat sothing wrong?”
“Forget how I looked until now.”
“Are you crazy?”
“uh. What I’ve seen so far has been crazy enough. “I won’t do that in the future.”
“….”
I couldn’t speak.
The sight of him just saying what he wanted to say was even creepy.
There was only one case where he changed his attitude like flipping his palm.
‘Have you recognized my talent?’
That was all there was to it.
Ahar’s attitude towards so far was not much different from that of treating trash.
But now he was treating like a precious treasure.
Then there was only one reason.
When I thought that I could get sothing from .
‘But how?’
When Ahar looked at , the talent I had was ‘acting’.
That’s why he hasn’t paid any attention to until now.
What you see now is clearly wrong.
In many ways, you have to be careful when soone who wasn’t interested in you starts to beco interested in you.
Especially if you are soone who wants to exterminate humans like Ahar.
“How about we do this together from now on?”
“…yes?”
What kind of nonsense is this crazy guy talking about?
I was so embarrassed that I stuttered without even realizing it.
Despite my reaction, Ahar smiled and said.
“That’s right. It’s been a long ti since we’ve been together. “It is true that I have treated you poorly all this ti, so please co with and apologize for that.”
“There is no need to do that. “Because I don’t care.”
“no. It’s because I care. And how long are you going to be respectful? Speak comfortably. I don’t think there’s that much of an age difference. “He looks more like an older brother.”
“….”
The excessive kindness was just burdenso.
It was still a burden for people I didn’t know, but the burden was even greater because I knew what kind of person Ahar was.
I knew very well that it was like that because I had sothing to tear away.
‘No matter how much you think about it, there is nothing else but talent.’
There is one reason why Ahar treats well at this point.
Recognizing my talent for swordsmanship.
Other than that, there was no reason for him to change his attitude like that.
“How about we stay together at least until we get out of the North?”
“….”
Staying with a murderer for nearly half a year.
It was as frustrating and angry as giving a gun and telling to commit suicide.
Especially since I recognized my talent for swordsmanship, it was like carrying around a ti bomb that could explode at any mont.
‘This is really troubleso.’
If I take him with , I feel anxious because I don’t know when he might be attacked. But if I go with him separately, I feel anxious because I don’t know when he might be attacked.
I felt less anxious when my talents were not recognized.
At least there was no reason to attack .
But it’s different now.
My life may be threatened at any ti.
‘I’m going to turn. really.’
Even when things got ssy, they got stuck tightly.
It was clearly visible that I would have to go through quite a bit of trouble to solve this problem.
***
The road to the center of the mountain range was long and arduous.
It’s not because of the monsters that appear here and there or because the mountain path is rough.
‘Damn it.’
This is because every day was a series of tension to the point where swear words ca out.
I can confidently say that the reason I am so nervous is all because of Ahar.
Ahar’s gaze was always with , whether I was sleeping or dealing with physiological phenona.
Those gazes were so burdenso that I couldn’t sleep properly and kept feeling anxious even while eating.
It was a series of quite unpleasant days.
“How long do you plan on following around?”
Ahar just laughed without saying anything in response to my question, which I couldn’t bear anymore.
“Do it in moderation.”
“Are you planning to kill soone by drying their blood? “Just do it in moderation.”
“A person in a bad mood.”
“Red Mill. “Please co next to .”
The companions seed to not like his attitude, so they each said sothing.
But Ahar didn’t care at all.
The sight of him moving with his eyes focused only on was very eerie.
For a mont, Ahar began looking around, looking for sothing.
I was able to sigh at that, but his sudden behavior made even more anxious.
“What are you looking for so much?”
“It is nothing.”
I don’t think it’s nothing.
There is only one case where he goes to such lengths to search for sothing in the center of a mountain range.
Reid.
The goal is to find traces of Reid.
Reid lives in a nest in the center of a mountain range.
And the place we have currently arrived at is the center of the mountain range.
Since it is Raid’s territory, it will be easy to et him if you just look for his traces and move around.
That was Ahar’s purpose for coming here in the first place.
After killing Reid, the monsters in the North go crazy.
“found.”
Ahar searched for traces with his eyes wide open and eventually found them.
Raid’s traces carved into a huge tree.
And even excrent that appears to have been seen recently.
“let’s go.”
I felt the madness of telling that I had to go unconditionally and that if I didn’t go, they would kill .
I also had business to attend to in the raid, so I didn’t refuse.
Rather, I had to go with him now.
If he catches Raid, he will beco much stronger than he is now.
If that happens, the barely maintained balance of power will collapse in an instant.
From then on, the annihilation of the group was obvious.
So, you must definitely bring the last hit.
In any case, Ahar should not have been allowed to acquire talent.
Cry. Crumbling.
After wandering around looking for Reid, we were able to encounter a giant creature.
The head of a lion boasting a rich mane, the body of a bear covered in dark brown fur, the limbs of a werewolf, and the tail of a snake.
The guy who looked to be at least 3 ters tall was Reid.
“Crazy…”
“What is that? “Could that be Reid?”
“We are avoiding it.”
“yes.”
The entire group beca nervous as they saw the creature.
Ellis took Reina and dodged back early, while Mahol and Beatrice each prepared for battle.
Ku-Juk, Ku-Juk.
Reid was eating sothing as big as himself.
Looking closely at what was in his hand, it was not difficult to see that it was a troll.
The worst monster outside was just food here.
And it wasn’t just trolls there.
Next to the troll being eaten, what appeared to be the bones of various monsters were piled up.
Among them were many monsters I knew.
The sight of high-level monsters such as Giant Ents and Lizardn piled up like a mountain was spectacular in another sense.
‘It’s no fun to feel intimidated.’
Even with my back turned, the intimidating feeling I felt was enough to make my whole body tremble.
On the ground, I felt that it was not for nothing that it was called the next monster after the dragon.
With such a monster in front of , I quietly approached Mahol and whispered.
“I’m going to be away for a while.”
“yes…?”
“Just listen. I won’t be gone for a long ti, so there’s no need to worry. However… avoid fighting raids as much as possible. “I don’t think we should fight at least until I get back.”
“yes.”
“But I think that will be difficult.”
I glanced at Ahar, whose fighting spirit was burning as he looked at Reid.
Mahol nods as if he understands.
“therefore. Get out of the front line as much as possible. “Please help just enough so that I don’t die while trying to get him to deal with that guy alone.”
“All right.”
“You speak well of Beth. rember. You guys shouldn’t be at the forefront of anything. And you know the last hit.”
“yes. “But where are you going?”
“To solve the reason I ca here. “Just keep that in mind.”
I didn’t say more.
This much is enough to understand.
Although I was worried about Ahar.
‘Because once he focuses on soone he focuses until the end.’
I soon lost interest.
Ahar need not worry.
As long as your eyes are fixed on Reid, there is no way your gaze will go anywhere else.
At least you don’t have to worry as long as Reid doesn’t die.
“The nest must be around here.”
I moved quickly, rembering the contents of the novel.
Ti should not be delayed.
Even a slight delay can cause difficulties for the group.
Because Ahar can reveal his true nature.
Move as quickly as possible to find the nest and hatch Reid’s eggs.
That was what I had to do now.
‘Lethe grass and monster bone al…’
There are two ways to hatch Reid’s eggs.
The first one is held by Reid’s mother.
The second is to soak it in a liquid that combines various ingredients.
Although the first thod is the best hatching thod.
‘There is a raid outside that needs to be hatched.’
In the novel, there was only one Reid.
It is not a hermaphrodite.
However, when they mate and beco pregnant, the mother eats the father.
Therefore, there is only one raid left.
So I have to use the second thod.
‘This thod is not good for hatchlings.’
Since it is forced hatching, it cannot be good.
“That’s not important.”
The important thing is to hatch Reid before he dies.
To do that, we need to find the nest as quickly as possible.
“Where the hell are you?”
The nest must have been found around here.
In the novel, Reid’s nest is in the center of the mountain.
They say there is a cave with trees and bushes blocking the entrance.
‘Why can’t I see it?’
I beca anxious because the nest was not as easy to find as I thought.
I moved even faster and finally found the nest.
Crumbling.
“…What the fuck?”
For so reason, there was sothing that shouldn’t be at the entrance to the nest.
The head of a lion and the body of a bear… No matter how I looked at it, it was Reid.
why?
Obviously Reid was at the top, but why is there one more here?
This is an unexpected problem.
‘Will I be able to deal with it alone?’
I looked at the raid and estimated its power.
The plan was completely revised when there was another raid.
The reason I wanted to hatch the eggs was because raids were needed to manage the northern ecosystem.
However, if there was already one more egg, there was no need to hatch the egg.
‘Let’s go back.’
The conclusion was made quickly.
Not only did I not have the confidence to hunt raids alone, but I also did not feel the need to do so.
So, just go back to where your group is.
It was ti to move based on the judgnt that there would be no problem in catching Reid up there.
Wow!
Reid’s cries were heard behind him.
With a creepy feeling, chicken skin grew on my arm.
Crumbling.
I secretly looked back and grabbed my sword, breaking into a cold sweat.
Crumbling. Crumbling.
Reid was approaching , glaring at .
