Chapter 55 – Warlock’s Request

While hiding on top of the hill, he watched the kobolds’ cave entrance. While I was doing that, I started crawling out of the back of the cave with my friends.

“It appeared.”

—Gyusat Gyusat.
ㅡGyusasasasasasasasasat.
ㅡKyuu~ It’s cheap.

The total number of kobolds that came out of the cave looking around was four. There were no kobold warriors in the crowd, only weak walkers. It must have come out to collect fruits or roots of edible grasses around here.

“What we need are scale wolves, not kobolds.”
“Mister. Who doesn’t know that? I’m not going to crawl out to eat those bastards.”
“I hope so, yes.”

Maurice’s demeanor had been perverse since the previous argument. There is a vulgar saying that she ate her age in shit, but it seemed to make no difference whether it was the modern Earth or this world.

He is an unpredictable man. Any woman’s mind, no matter how complicated, would be relatively easy to read compared to Maurice’s state of mind.

ㅡKyusat.
—Gyusatsat.

They crawled with their noses on the ground, talking in a kobold language that we could never understand. They are blind, so they rely on their sense of smell.

They seemed quite peaceful.

I mean, it was fun and he looked happy.

ㅡKurrrr…

Until predators show up.

“It appears.”

What appeared secretly after harming the vines was a gray scale wolf, like the color of cement. Unable to control his trembling excitement, he approached the kobolds with muffled footsteps.

ㅡ Gyusat?
ㅡ Gyusat?
ㅡKeureuk…!

Parbat! The scale wolf that jumped out like lightning bit the nape of the kobold’s neck as it stupidly looked back.

ㅡQuu, cheap aaaaa!!!!!!!!!!

The kobold biting off the nape of the neck roared bitterly. It was the cry of life itself. The picnic of the kobolds, who were happy with the appearance of a powerful predator, turned into hell in an instant.

ㅡKu, Kusat!
ㅡGyusat!

Seeing this, the other three kobolds panicked and tried to return to the cave. It was truly a ghost road (餓鬼道) to collide and fall.

ㅡKururu, Creek!!

However, Scale Wolf did not allow them to escape. One by one, they quickly pursued them and bit their necks to death. It took less than a minute to brutally slaughter all four kobolds.

“That guy… His skills are quite good.”

The scale wolves, who turned all four into corpses, seemed satisfied only then, and leisurely chose one kobold and began to eat its belly.

ㅡEternally.
ㅡEukjeok, Wooddeuk.

Well, come to think of it, isn’t this a complete fisherman’s geography? Suddenly, I was able to pack three kobold heads with my butt. If you only take the brain, I’m a bit of a dick, so you should just take the whole head.

“Kat. How is it? It looks good going now?”
“That bastard is still out of his mind. If we surprise him now, we can send him into the goal. Mr. Gibson and… Mr. Maurice. Let’s go.”

Even a bastard won’t touch it when it’s eating, but we decided to be willing to attack the guy who eats that food.

Even if the four of us went down the aisle, he couldn’t escape because the back was a cliff area with a cave. Facing the worst, the option of going into the kobold cave takes a bit.

ㅡ Tak Tak Tak!

We ran straight down the hill. As they descended, they spread out in a single row. It was like a net stretched towards him.

ㅡ Kreuk?

The one whose muzzle was dyed red raised his head and looked at us. After searching for him, he was started as if he had seen his mother come back alive, and then he turned around and tried to run away. But it was a cliff.

Both sides had already been blocked by us for a long time.

Hehe… Nin’s behind now, you fucking bitch.”
ㅡKurr…

I said, twirling the tip of his knife to try a hypnotic attack on him. It didn’t have much of an effect.

Chew.

ㅡ Wow!

The Scale Wolf, who was looking around, gave up running away and attacked us. No retreat in battle before a decisive battle. The target was Gibson. At the crossroads of momentary life and death, he chose the smallest Gibson. It’s worth applauding the guy’s judgment.

“Kuk!”

Gibson, who cut off the rushing Scale Wolf with his sword, threw his body and rolled onto his side. It doesn’t seem to have done much damage. He was also a teenager, so he was a bit underweight. I immediately ran and blocked his escape route.

“You bastard! A Gibson!”

Opposite them are Cloudy and Maurice. I let out a battle cry and drove it towards it, and the three of us tried to make it into porridge, but he seemed to have taken the battle cry as a provocation and pounded on me.

Lower your stance. Extends the sword forward to protect the body. A sword is also a shield that perfectly protects oneself while killing enemies. Focus your mind. I’m looking for the timing

“Damn it!”
—-Cut it off.

The oblique upward slash exploded.

ㅡCreek!

The scale wolf’s left foreleg flew through the air. A clear line of blood stretched like a thread between the cut sections and sections. Should I cut it again and finish it? No, the distance is too narrow.

“Bitch!”

I just applied the technique [Knee crushing balls] That I had learned from Karin and hit him hard with my knee. Wood deok! I heard the sound of his bones snapping. The scale wolf, which flew about 2 meters away from a Muay Thai-like blow, fled to the other side of me.

Where he ran away, there were Cloudy and Maurice. The guy is already under siege. He can’t get out alive. Having lost one of his forelimbs and dislocated his shoulder blades, he pushed his body against the floor with only his hind legs, pushing forward.

…It was slow.

Maurice raised her ax high. Orderly posture. You can’t come up with that kind of attitude after you’ve hit an ax once or twice.

“Hup!”

Maurice, who exclaimed her elation, cut the guy’s head in two.
The situation is over.

“I killed again.”

She somehow said as if she had killed it entirely on her own, but Morrissey at least had enough skills to eat what her teammates had spiced up.

“I didn’t do anything this time either. Well, I’ll take off the leather.”

As he said, Cloudy didn’t do anything. She felt sorry for her because she was secretly expecting her skills. Taking her dagger from me, she peeled off her skin again.

“Mr. Gibson, are you okay? Are you not hurt?”
“Oh, I’m fine. I made a mistake.”

After asking about Gibson’s condition, I approached the corpses of the kobolds. I had to pull out their heads from now on. Since Risha said she needed a kobold’s brain… She is infinitely grateful to Scale Wolf for simply providing the corpses.

The nape of the kobold’s neck was already torn in half, so it was easy to separate.

I put them carefully in the sack slung over my back. I took it out to drain as much blood as possible, but I think it will probably become bloody soon and the blood will drip.

“Why are you taking that? Spoils?”
“Yes? Oh, similar.”
“Do you have a religion or something? Or a Mirkesha custom?”
“Uh… It’s not like that… It’s a commissioned item. Someone asked for it.”
“Is there a place for the kobold head?”
“Well, I’ve been wondering about that too. Why are you asking me to bring something like this?”

Claudy, who had completely peeled off her skin, came over and said, Her hands were covered in blood again. I opened the canteen again.

This resulted in two scale wolf skins and three kobold heads. If you combine up to five magic candles, the amount of quest completion has risen dramatically in an instant.

After that, as if he smelled blood, another Scale Wolf came to visit him.

“Huh? There he appeared again.”

We prepared for battle again. But this time it was Cloudy. He restrained his party by saying that he would do it himself.

“Everyone stay still. I have to do something too.”

There is an ambiguity in her words.
Just peeling off the skin properly is worth more than one serving.

ㅡKurr…

The guy who appeared this time must have been a little hungry, and slowly approached with both eyes open. Can’t you see this devastation here? Hunger darkens the beast’s eyes, but one kong will have to be acknowledged.

“…”

Cloudy walked towards him at the same speed as him. His gait her was light and smooth. Somehow, that figure combined with her long legs her to create a model-like atmosphere. As she walked, she lowered her stance for a moment.

And.

“Uh.”

For a moment,
It seemed to have disappeared.

“Oh my gosh.”

ㅡCrerelek!

The Scale Wolf, who had just jumped, let out a death throes.

It happened in an instant.

ㅡCome on!!

Claudy approached so quickly that it seemed as if he had disappeared for a moment, and he suddenly hit the starburst stream (real), and the Scale Wolf fell to the floor as it was chewed up.

“Uh~ Um~. Maybe the scales got a little damaged? I tried my best with my hands.”
“I’m going crazy and jumping.”

My dumbfounded mouth fell open.

Cloudy swung the twin swords like a ‘rambling’ at an almost invisible speed. In the stormy onslaught of the blade, the scale wolf jumped and was ‘cut off’ and died.

This bastard… Bitter!

Why the hell are you on an E-class adventure?!

In the meantime, it was amazing that the leather was not damaged that much. Looking at the wounds, the cuts were made only on the nape of the neck, armpits, and where muscles and muscles connect, avoiding scaled leather.

It’s a terrifying skill.

The unbelievable technology from before seemed like a mysterious power that transcended humans, like the magic of a magician who handles mana. Are you a mana user? If so, that bizarre movement is understandable.

“Awesome skills… Mr. Cloudy, with that skill, why are you E-class? From my point of view, you can also aim for C-class or B-class?”
“Is that so? It’s been a while since I came to the city. I started because I was tempted by the saying that the higher you become an adventurer, the better your earnings are, but you say you need achievements to be promoted?”
“A wall of performance that even masters cannot overcome!”

Cloudy’s skills were literally at the level of a master at a master’s level. No, is this martial arts? I was so embarrassed that I ran out of words. In other words, her skill seemed to be similar to that of a knight in the literal sense.

Anyway, even with her, she had n’t been here for a while, so she didn’t have any records, so she seemed to be making money while staying in E-class. She is an outsider, so she doesn’t know much about the ecology of the city.

Lucky for us

“It was a really amazing move. Even with that sword, the leather was barely damaged.”
“Because all monsters’ vitals are there. It’s nothing special, at least this much. My hometown, Shuldik, is a country of warriors who serve Hell-Khan, the god of the night sky. Since childhood, I have learned martial arts. Polished it.”

In other words, is Shurdik a country of human weapons with a religion that worships nothing? There is a desert, and judging from her brown skin, it seems to be something like Islam or Egypt. Combining her light clothes and two curved swords, which she is said to have worn from the beginning, brings to mind a concrete image of ‘fighting’.

Anyway, by the time I took the third hide, it was already well past noon. It would be ideal to catch one more and each take one.

Perhaps Cloudy’s skills are more than average, so he might be able to get a level of leather that doubles his level. Of course, that was when he found that many Scale Wolves.

Being strong doesn’t mean you can just kill a lot of monsters. Because monsters also have heads, they run away and hide. If they flocked like dogs, they could commit a massacre, but I don’t know about dungeons, but there is no such thing in a field like this.

“If you catch one more from now on, you’ll be able to take one piece of leather for each person.”

Gibson said.

“Then let’s find the last one.”
