39.End of the Ice Age

“Then Flora and I will buff you, so please attack!”

Before entering the dungeon, the Eden party, which gave information about metal slimes and how to attack them, finally headed to the dungeon.

Jjijik-Jigijik-

A black crack floating in the air that doesn’t fit in any ordinary house.

Hana, who saw that the space was split as if the world was covered with noise, said.

“Ugh…Every time I look at it, dungeons are creepy..”

They threw themselves into the crack, ignoring the unpleasant feeling of seeing something that shouldn’t exist in this world.

The scenery changes in an instant as soon as you put your body into the black rift.

The Eden party hurriedly formed their formation after realizing that the place that had just been an ordinary family home had turned into a dark and damp cave.

“I’ll take the lantern and backup in this dungeon!”

Hana took out a large lantern and said while fiddling with the magic arrows in the quiver.

Worried that it wouldn’t be of much help in this Slime Dungeon, Hana decided to buy arrows enchanted with the 5th circle magic and Destruction magic ordered from the Mage Tower.

Of course, I couldn’t use it hastily because I boasted the level of money that I would have to starve for even clearing the dungeon, let alone catching slime with this arrow, but I tried to rationalize it thinking that I had purchased equipment that would be responsible for the safety of the party members.

“As I said, I will focus on assist.”

As soon as Eden finished speaking, he closed his eyes and entered the stockade.

-Strength

-Haste

-Stone skin

After Eden finished the chant, light dwelled in the bodies of Jake and Yueun, the vanguards.

Yueun’s eyes twinkled as she felt her mana entering her own body permeating her muscles, making her move stronger and faster.

[The all-seeing eye of insight grasped the principle of magic!]

‘It’s amazing… Is this an enhancement magic?’

It was Yoo Eun who figured out that unlike her usual practice of focusing circulating qi, Eden’s magic applied her external mana to her own body.

‘Next time… I can do it too…’

[The result of discovering various strengthening magics. I realized the power of absorption!]

When Yoo-eun, who casually discovered someone else’s magic and created a new martial art, nodded her head,

As soon as she entered the dungeon, she heard Flora’s voice praying on her knees.

Look down and save me from evil..Divine protection!(Divine protection)

As she finished her prayer, a bright light enveloped the party members.

Flora stood up after shaking her knees and said to the party members.

“This should be able to block attacks to some extent!”

“Okay, let’s go now! In a combat situation, I will speak in short language, so please understand!”

As I went through the damp cave with Eden’s horse, I gradually heard the sound of the monster.

Boeing-

Boeing-

When I turned the corner with a unique sound, I saw metal slimes gathered in a slightly wider vacant lot.

“Hmm.. A little too many? Let’s lure just one. One please!”

As if a considerable number of metal slimes were a burden, Eden asked Hana to lure them in, and Hana pulled out an arrow.

“I’ll only match the guy on the far left over there.”

One pulled an arrow and aimed at the slime a little away from the crowd.

Phishun-

Taeng-

An arrow flew like a fish and hit the metal slime it was aiming for, but the arrow ricocheted out as if it had hit an iron plate.

Boeing?

As if he sensed something flying towards him, a slime slowly approached the party.

“Ambush the moment you cross the corner!”

Boing… Boing!!

Like that, a slime appeared in front of the party waiting behind the corner.

Boeing!!

As they turned the corner, the slime also stretched out its body as if it had discovered the party and attacked Yueun and Jake.

Kaaang!

The body of the slime crashed onto Jake’s shield with the sound of metal clashing violently.

“Keuugh! It’s heavy because it’s metal..!”

While Jake was pushing the slime with his shield, Yueun emitted sword energy and cut the slime in two.

Close up-

The slime split in half fell to the floor with a sound like a spoon scraping a steel pot.

Kang! Kang!

The slime, which fell to the floor while still hardened, began to twitch and try to come together again.

“Over there! That little guy over there is the main body! Hurry and finish!”

At Eden’s cry for the slime’s nucleus using observation magic from behind, Jake slammed down the slime pieces with the nucleus with his shield.

Thump thump!

No matter how many times I hit the shield, the trembling body of the slime stretched out, revealing a cracked slime core the size of a walnut.

“You got it! Thankfully no one was hurt, right?”

At Flora’s words, the two vanguards nodded.

I thought while staring at the fallen slime.

‘I think that’s a nuclear weapon.. I can catch it next time..’

With her eyes, Eun-Yoo discovered a core that moved inside the slime’s body at a tremendous speed.

“Do slimes die if they are attacked by nuclear weapons?”

When Yoo Eun asked Eden who was picking up the nuclear weapons, Eden answered.

“Yes, that’s right. Slime’s weak point is its core. However, since the core moves so fast, it will be difficult to catch it at once. Just like before, if you cut it into small pieces, I’ll tell you where the core is, so please attack it well.”

Yoo-eun nodded at Eden’s words, and Eden’s party continued to lure the far away slimes and deal with them one by one, just like before.

“Looks like no slime is left alone… I’ll tie up the remaining five, so let’s calmly clean up the one in front!”

As the party members all entered the clearing at his words, as if they had found them, the slimes bounced around and quickly approached.

Boeing! Boeing!

From noble mtl dot com

When the slimes that came almost in front of them tried to stretch their bodies,

Ice wall!!

A wall of ice rises between the slimes that rush at you in an instant.

“It won’t last long! We need to kill it quickly!”

“…!”

Eden’s words didn’t end, as if she was being chased by something, Yoo Eun hurriedly jumped between the two isolated slimes.

“Mr. Yueun! It’s dangerous!”

Party members shouted as they saw Yueun digging into a place where Jake couldn’t protect her.

“What are you doing dangerously!”

Seeing that scene, Hana hurriedly picked up an enchanted arrow and was stunned.

Heavenly Sword Jagiryu (天劍 自技流) – Yeoncham (連斬)

It was because after the flashing sword light passed at a speed that was barely visible to the naked eye, two halved slime cores were lying at once.

“How…? But where did you go?”

When the party, excluding Yueun, was in panic, a scream was heard from behind them.

“Kyaaagh!”

“What!”

Surprised by the sudden scream, the group turned around to see Flora, who was following her group behind her, and Yoo Eun, who was brandishing her sword at her.

Flora swung her sword at her slime, and she suddenly appeared in front of her and couldn’t even resist the sword-wielding Eun-eun, and only touched her screams.

Flora couldn’t help but close her eyes at the sight of Yoo Eun swinging a sword at her with her expressionless face.

‘Dear God…’

“What are you doing!! Stop it!”

Hana, who saw the scene up close, was startled and ran to Flora, but it was after Yoo Eun’s sword had already been swung.

Squeak-

Flora closed her eyes, and she felt a gust of wind pass by her neck, and she trembled with fear.

‘Ah… Is this how I die…’

However, after a second passed, followed by another 2, then 3 seconds without feeling anything, Flora opened her eyes and looked right in front of her.

“Cool.. Cool..”

In front of Flora when she opened her eyes, Yoo Eun, who had been swinging her sword at her, was suddenly coughing up her blood from her mouth.

“Huh..?”

While Flora was perplexed by the state of her eunuch, she hurriedly arrived and hugged Flora, drew her dagger, and shouted.

“Flora! Are you okay?”

Flora replied, bewildered by her reaction.

“Yes, I’m fine… But he suddenly…”

Surprised by the sight of Yoo Eun sitting on the floor, blood pouring from her mouth, Hana shouted.

“What! What’s wrong with you all of a sudden! He’s the one who wielded the sword. Why are you like that?”

When I was puzzled by Yueun’s serious condition, I heard Eden’s voice.

“This is…Very fortunate…”

Eden, who approached after sealing the passage where the slime was located with a huge block of ice, was surprised to see something.

“Look at that. It almost got into trouble.”

When Eden reached out and pointed to the ceiling where Flora was, there was a metal slime with a destroyed core, stretching her body long, as if it were going to attack at any moment.

“Huh..!”

“Hey?”

When all the party members who discovered the scene were shocked, Eden’s voice was heard.

“More than that, it’s not the time to be surprised. Yoo-eun seems to be overdoing it, so please treat her quickly.”

“Ah! Yueun! Are you okay?”

Flora, who was frantically staring at the slime on her ceiling, hurriedly came to her senses at his words and approached Yoo-eun.

“Cool…..”

Eun-Yoo was busy controlling her body, which had been dragged to its limits and the inside of her body, spitting out boiling blood.

Flora, who saw Yu-eun like that, became tearful and hurriedly placed her hands on Yu-eun’s back and began to pray.

Brilliant light emanated from Flora’s hands as she sweated and prayed for a long time.

-Restore!!

As soon as she cast Divine Magic for Body Restoration, a spell that is one level higher than normal healing that promotes body regeneration, Yueun’s condition began to improve rapidly.

‘This…?’

Yoo-eun, who was unable to pay attention to the outside situation because she was contemplating her messy body, felt her body return to its normal state and opened her eyes.

When her Yu-eun turned her head, her Flora, who looked at her with her happy expression, with her sweat dripping from all over her body, said.

“Ha ha.. Ha.. I’m so glad. Yueun-ssi. You’re trying so hard to save me.. Thank you so much..”

Flora, who was catching her breath, put her hand on her chest and lowered her head as she spoke. Yueun nodded her head and answered.

“I just did it because the same party was in danger. You don’t have to thank me.”

Eden, who was listening to Yueun’s words, said.

“No matter how much you are a party member, it’s really hard to do something like that without hesitation. As the party leader, thank you very much. For protecting our precious party member..”

Eden also lowered her head to Yueun and Jake nodded her head too.

“Hmm… I certainly can’t take that for granted. I salute you for your bravery.”

Then the last one left said with her face blushing.

“Mi..Sorry..I didn’t even know that, I was screaming and alert…”

At one word, Yueun shook her head and said.

“No. I think it’s possible. It’s not what I said or did…”

Hana laughed at Yueun’s words.

“You’re really nice? Thank you for forgiving me! I’m sorry for being picky at first. Let’s be friends from now on!”

Having said that, Hana approached Yoo-eun and hugged her. Yu-eun was taken aback and she froze.

She didn’t know how to react, so Yoo-eun’s frozen body and her disoriented hands remained in the air.

Hana, who was away from Yoo-eun for a while, asked Yoo-eun a question.

“You said she was Yueun? How old is she? Are you Korean too?”

She felt a warm feeling in Yoo-eun’s heart when Hana treated her kindly.

“Yes, I am twenty-two.”

“Wow! Then I’m your sister! I’m twenty-four! You can call me sister!”

“I hate that.”

“Oh why~ let’s get close?”

“Now let’s go! The ice is melting!”

“I’ll check the ceiling carefully this time too!”

Yueun started to feel comfortable talking to others for the first time, excluding her teacher, as she chatted with the party members.
