9th Circle Lord

20 #20화 Soar3

A sense of awe came to the eyes of the group who saw Luther.

Just looking at it weighs on my mind.

They found out that Luther's personal life had changed.

The appearance changed and had a brilliant spirit.

I wanted to ask what happened to my throat, but no one opened their mouth.

Just looking at him makes my heart shrink.

But I didn't have the courage to speak.

Luther knew why they were groaning.

'It's the effect of non-attribution.’

Currently, his magical body has turned into an impurity.

As a result, destructive and violent spirit is secretly spreading and weighing on the party.

Luther put on his hood and converted mana into water properties.

Water properties are warm and soft.

As the gentle energy spread calmly, the group's expression was somewhat relieved.

My stiff body is relaxed and my mind is relaxed.

Dolken, who was struggling, had a sweet mouth.

There were so many questions I wanted to ask, but I couldn't say anything.

No matter how comfortable it is, Luther is still a difficult being.

Unexpectedly, Zach opened his mouth.

"What happened?"

It was a question with many questions.

Luther gave orders instead of a kind explanation.

"Get your stuff and get ready to move. We're done hunting."

"What?"

Elena's eyes became round.

"Are you stopping hunting the trolls?”

"Yes, I'm going to Malvin."

The monster hunt is over now that the desired achievement has been achieved.

Elena's eyes were shaken by Luther's instructions.

They hunted a number of trolls, but the amount to be allocated to them was far short of buying the sword book.

Luther, who found her anxious, came up and said,

"There's nothing to worry about. 'Cause you're gonna get the sword book.'

"But it's not up to what the merchant said.”

We don`t have to adjust the amount he offered. The deal is based on bargaining, and the priority is on our side. If you don't present the sword book, there will be no trolls, so you'll try to make a deal somehow. So no more hunting is meaningless."

Elena's face brightened only then.

Luther was right.

Only the number of trolls they hunted exceeds 30 lines.

The merchant will not give up the trolls.

Elena was relieved but not Kane.

"Night travel is dangerous."

The deaf monsters will not let them go through the quiet darkness.

But Luther remained calm.

"If they come, there will be more bodies for the merchant."

It has become too strong to be cautious.

Monsters could no longer be a threat to him.

The eyes of the advancing group reached Luther, who was sitting on a cart and closed his eyes with his arms crossed.

Until yesterday, he was as sensitive as walking on a blade.

But now he is as calm as he used to be.

While he was moving after packing his luggage, Dolken groaned like a person who needed to take a dump.

I can't solve my curiosity, so it's frustrating as if I'm upset.

It's not as much as Dalken, who is restless, but the party also wanted to ask many questions about.

However, there is no room for dialogue as they close their eyes and shut their mouths as if they were trying to block their doubts in advance.

But Luther, who had not moved, suddenly opened his eyes.

"Stop it."

At the word, Kane, who was driving a bull by a torch, stood tall.

He asked with a curious look.

"What's the matter?"

Luther, who jumped up, was staring into the pitch-dark forest without answering.

The party followed his gaze.

It was just a quiet forest.

What the hell is he looking at?

Luther gave the order.

"Wait here."

Then he quickly disappeared into the darkness.

Dolken opened his mouth wide.

I've felt it for a long time, but I wondered how a wizard could be as fast as the wind.

Elena said with a sad face as if she had waited when he disappeared.

"I think the wizard's getting cold.”

Unlike before, it was cold, and the number of words decreased dramatically.

His attitude toward them has become so hard that it reminds him of his first meeting.

"What's wrong with you all of a sudden?"

Her question was solved by Jacques.

"If we meet, we can break up."

Kane nodded.

"So is he.”

Dolken, who still didn't understand, asked with puzzled eyes.

"What are you talking about?"

"Do you remember what the wizard said earlier?"

"What did he say?”

"The hunt is over. That means we don't have to catch monsters anymore, and at the same time, we don't need them."Elena asked, "Don't you think so?"

"Then it's completely over?”

"We can't hunt together forever. Besides, we're not much help to the sorcerer. So if you go back to Malvin, you'll break up.”

Understood Dolken said with an awkward face.

"That's why you're so cold to us?"

"Because we're not seeing each other anyway."

"Well, I see."

"Still, don't show your disappointment to the wizard. If it weren't for him, I wouldn't have imagined I'd get a guaranteed sword certificate."

As Kane said, it is not disappointing, but rather grateful.

Dolken's expression became blurry.

"Yes, that's right."

If there is a beginning, there is an end.

There was nothing eternal, so it's understandable, but Dolken couldn't get rid of his bitter expression.

Dolken turned his head and looked at Elena.

It is natural that she should be happy to get a sword book that she also did not wish for, but there is sadness around her eyes.

Kane doesn't look very happy either.

Suddenly, the atmosphere is heavy.

Dolken spoke with a load of energy.

"Hey! Come to think of it, I've never been more comfortable. Where is he? Thanks to the wizard, I've been hunting without touching my nose, and I'm following the sword book. I hope I can only meet a client like a wizard. Don't you think so?

“…….”

"Hey, guys, what's wrong with everyone's face? Why are you so upset when we're not together for the rest of our lives as Kane said? Smile like me. Hahaha! Haha...…haha."

Dolken's voice, which was making a forced smile, gradually died down.

Then he bowed his head with a heavy face.

He also seemed to have a hard time breaking up with the wizard.

Zach pondered over his company.

Why is it not easy to accept parting?

The answer came out quickly.

He was different from others.

He was not afraid of being weak, but rather humane.

He was a strong man who had never seen before, but he acknowledged himself.

That's why.

I wanted to be with you more, and I didn't want to break up.

I want to stay by your side and be with you.

Zach's eyes deepened.

Perhaps he met a fate he wanted to follow for the rest of his life.

As I cross the forest for a long time, I hear a faint scream.

'There you go.'

I finally found the epicenter of the sound.

Luther scoured the scene.

There were two angry owers, one lying on the floor dying, and the other roared, lifting something.

Turn it off!

a mournful cry

The crying sound, which is why Luther suddenly jumped into the forest, flows out of the mouth of the dying Ouger.

Luther looked at the triumphant auger.

He is lifting a bloody log in one hand and a small one in the other.

Looking closely, it stumbles as if it were alive.

Luther's eyes deepened.

"Baby Ouger?’

A small Ouger cub as high as a human knee was resisting in the hands of a holding Ouger.

Turn it off!

The dying auger cries again.

He seemed to be begging as if not to.

However, Auger, who was smiling regardless, opened his mouth.

Luther kicked the table.

Bang!

Luther, who leaped into the air, pointed his finger at the open-mouthed auger.

Snoong! Snoong!

A sharp wind has just cut Ouger's throat to swallow his baby Ouger.

Boom!

Ouger's head, which revealed a smooth cross-section of the flesh, fell on the floor.

The baby Ouger, who fell from the hands of the fallen Ouger, rolled on the floor and didn't move.

Maybe I fainted.

Bam!

After arriving at the scene, Luther shook his head as he looked through the howling Ouger.

'They're all wrong.'

There is a big hole in the chest.

Judging from the sharp end of the log of Ouger, who just killed, it seemed to have penetrated the chest properly.

Turn it off!

The dying Ouger cried again and stretched his arms weakly toward the baby Ouger.

'It must be a mother.’

Luther lay on the floor, lifted the immobile baby ouger, and put it down in front of his mother ouger.

Turn it off! Turn it off!

A mother auger holding a baby in her arms began to cry aloud.

Luther's eyes, who was observing the amount, shook greatly.

Tears were flowing from the mother's eyes.

It is also surprising that monsters have maternal love, but they even shed tears.

It was the moment when the perception of monsters that they had no reason and were only ferocious collapsed.
