69 – Crisis, The Weakest Trio

After the battle, the saint and I healed each other.

“Saint, don’t go out on your own again. If she had taken it easy, she wouldn’t have been hurt, so what is she like?”

“Yes…”

I cautioned her while treating her burnt arm.

It may seem cynical, but this had to be clearly pointed out.

Fortunately, the incident ended with only minor injuries, but what the saint did was very dangerous.

If the goddess hadn’t helped us at the end, the saint and I would have become food for giants by now.

‘Ah, thank you. Goddess. ‘I’m sorry for making fun of you for calling you a rotten goddess, a mothball goddess, a damn goddess, a damn goddess, and a perverted goddess.’

Ia Ia Goddess.

Long live Iia Ia.

I prayed in my heart so that my heart could reach our Goddess.

But the goddess didn’t say anything.

Now that I think about it, the chatty goddess has been quiet lately.

I guess there is some problem.

‘How can humans think about things in the divine world? ‘I’ll just solve my problems quickly’

He’s still giving me quests, so I’m sure he’ll be fine. Believing so, I shook my hands and stood up.

“Okay, the treatment is over. We have to get back to work.”

After using the absolute treatment, her left arm hurt as if it had been scorched by a hot iron rod.

After… Her internal organs were completely healed thanks to the treatment from her saint, but the reverberations of her pain did not disappear.

“Are you sure you’re okay…? I think you’re unwell, but I think you could take a little rest…”

“It’s okay. It won’t be a burden on you, so don’t worry.”

It’s really painful and difficult, but the situation on the volcano is getting worse and we have to move.

If not only the clever earthworms are squirming, but also the children of flame are moving, the damage will be greater, so we need to work hard.

I took the painkillers out of my bag and took them. But the pain didn’t go away, so I drank a glass of brandy. After doing that, there was no problem in moving my body. Overuse of magical power can be quite painful.

“Then let’s go… Let’s go clean up all the guys we saw on the way from the village.”

Purify evil and save the weak.

This is our denomination’s outdated slogan.

I will obey you well, so please give me more PP if you can, goddess.

‘I don’t know if you’re watching, but please keep an eye on me, goddess. ‘Please give me a bonus when this job is over.’

With such foolish thoughts in mind, we set out on our way.

“Lean to the left and cut!”

Kwasik!

“This time down!”

Shut up!

After leaving the forest and arriving at a secluded land of rocks, we adjusted our pace and hunted wigglers and giants.

The saintess, who was creaky at first, seems to have gotten the hang of it, but her movements are gradually becoming more natural.

[Hey… Ivan. In front of me. Okay! Is there something strange in front of me?]

When she was resting for a while after finishing her subjugation, Tina, who had become her sword, thrust her own head (presumably the tip of the blade) and pointed in her direction.

When I looked back to see what it was pointing at, I saw a huge pit of fire… No. I’m not going to explain it in detail, but I’ve seen that somewhere.

A body as strong as a huge red rock, four legs that support the body with incredible endurance, a pus-like red crystal on its back, and a mane as bright red as prominence and covered in incredible flames. Yes, that has a shape that is consistent with the flame lion rock that Agal showed me.

[Flame Lion]

Was it the original version of the Flame Lion?! I was in big trouble. We’re in really big trouble!

Once upon a time, before the volcano became the home of dragons, it was a dangerous species of demonic beast that ran rampant. A predator that is more ferocious, clever, and cruel than most other magical beasts.

It is said that the dragons became extinct during the process of settling in the volcano… No, they said they were extinct, so why are they here?

Anyway, there is no chance of winning against that. Just looking at the recorded data, it is said that 20 skilled dwarven warriors attacked and lost, so how can we win with our weak strength?

Even though the saint receives divine protection and has extra-human physical abilities, the other person is also a being with an extra-human body and magical power.

Against that thing, it is wise to run away. I believe that the other party members will catch me, so I take a step back from here…

“Yes, priest! That person over there…!”

As I was getting ready to run away, I saw a carriage under a huge lion in front of me. After a while, he started acting unusually.

So… That thing opens its huge maw wide and tries to eat the person inside!

Damn it, what should I do? Should I save it? Or run away?

A lot of random thoughts come into your head, but when you judge rationally, it is right to run away. If you attack for no reason, everyone will die, so what can you do?

[Subquest: Defeat the Flame Lion and rescue the captured person]

Reward: 200,000 PP, Lion’s Courage

※If you fail, you will die.

Oh! Then yes! Would our Goddess, the Goddess of Death, allow me to run away!

Eight, I don’t know!

“You flaming-headed bastard! Look here!”

I tried to provoke him by yelling at him, but Mr. Burning Head didn’t even turn around and dug up the wreckage of the carriage.

‘Ugh… Damn how can I stop it?

Oh, there is something I made while coming to Volcano.

I quickly rummaged through my bag and picked up a handful of small, round wads of paper. I threw what looked like Hershey’s chocolate wrapped in paper as close as possible to the lion.

Too-doo-doo-duk!!!

“Crrr…?!”

When they hit the ground, they made a loud noise and succeeded in attracting the lion’s attention.

“What do you think? The aggro-pulling effect of volcano special bean bullets!”

What I threw was none other than homemade bean bullets. Since the volcano is the home of gunpowder, we were able to buy gunpowder at a low price, and while wondering how to use it, we made a can of bean bullets.

I was bored yesterday so I made this just for fun, but now I have something to use it for! Awesome me from yesterday!

But… The effect is so great that it makes eye contact with me and runs towards me like I’m going to kill you?

“No, they’re really trying to kill me!”

The flame lion is so fast that if you blink once, it disappears from sight. At this rate, it will attack me in about 5 seconds.

Damn, should I avoid it? No, should you throw some oil on it and make it slip? No, no, there is no answer for both. Too late to get the oil out, too fast to avoid it.

I was in a mild panic for 5 seconds as the guy approached and couldn’t even try anything.

As expected, it’s best to avoid it even now…

“Priest!”

Boom!

As he was preparing to rush, the saint stopped the lion’s surprise attack with a swing of her fist. The saint’s heavy blow went deep into the guy’s jaw, and he flew far away.

“What…”

What is really happening? Killing a lion with bare hands… ?

“Are you okay? Are you hurt anywhere?”

“Uh… Yes. Be more careful than that. He’ll come back at any time.”

I was momentarily entranced by the unrealistic scene unfolding before my eyes, but the guy the saintess knocked down was also unrealistic.

The guy is still glaring at the saintess despite the deep blow.

“Growl…”

A guy who cries so honestly that he is a lion despite being a demonic beast is wary of the presence of a saint.

Well, how could I not be on guard when my chin was hit so hard?

‘Let’s think calmly for now… He was in too much of a hurry to save people… ‘

Originally, they would have prepared to subdue them by mobilizing the maximum number of people possible, but now they have really provoked the enemy in a reckless manner.

You cannot refill water that has already been spilled. You can still clean up a spill, so think of all the ways you can do it now.

But the guy rushes at me without giving me time to think.

“Crung!”

“Ugh…”

This time again, the saint’s protection. I grabbed my sword and blocked the giant front paws of the guy who charged at me.

However, in a battle of power between the two, the lion has the upper hand. The vicious claws are getting closer and closer, trying to tear the saint to pieces.

[Ivan! Don’t just look at me blankly, tell me what to do!]

Damn, I can’t think of a suitable number. Right now, we have to trust Tina and the saint!

“Twist the sword to let out the claws! Then, naturally, kick the sword in the stomach.”

[Okay!]

Tina, who clearly understood what I was saying, manipulated her saintess to push her lion’s paw aside, twisted her body from her pushed position and stretched out her paw.

“Ugh!”

Kwasik!

Oh my god, you are so f*cking cruel.

The saint, who was being dragged around by Tina, fell because she was unable to maintain her balance in her unreasonable posture. However, in the process, she unintentionally kicked a very precious part of the male lion with her paw.

The lion whines and complains of pain without being able to scream.

[Amelia! This is not the time to fall down! Wake up!]

“Ugh… Yes…!”

The women and children who do not know the lion’s pain confront the lion again.

‘Yeah, right…’ That bastard is trying to eat us, so let’s not have any sympathy… ‘

As a fellow male, I almost felt sympathy for him, but we’ll leave that for later. Rather, it is very good because the clean hit goes into the weak spot.

“Listen carefully! The red crystal on its back is its weak point! Aim for that!”

[OK OK!]

Tina, who understood what I said, made her saintess move again and jumped high.

Their target, of course, is the red crystal on their back.

“Crrr to!”

Sensing her crisis, the lion comes to her senses and attacks her as she hovers in the air.

A situation where the mouth is wide open and it looks like it is going to be swallowed at any moment.

It’s literally a quick hit!
