Chapter 399 – Assassination Family Raven 4 (20)

The corpses of harpies with their heads or hearts pierced piled up around me.

I lost my life in a single blow, but the bodies of the harpies that tried to attack me by diving from a high place fell towards me, resulting in a pile of messy corpses around me.

Sagrun came out and kicked the harpy’s corpse with his shoe, wondering if he had gambled away his A-level adventurer qualification.

Since the kicking part was all the harpy’s chest, I had nothing to say, so I just stared at it in silence. Sagrun noticed my gaze and cleared his throat.

“Hmm. I did it because I was curious. I was curious. It could be a hard stone chest, right?”

“I admit I don’t know what I don’t know unless I touch it. Then wouldn’t it be better to just touch it with my hands?”

“I wasn’t sure because I definitely kicked it.”

Sagrun squatted in front of one of the harpies who seemed to have large breasts and massaged his chest.

After rubbing a few times, Sagrun stood up and spoke to me with a serious face.

“Compared to a human woman, it is a little harder. The muscles around the outside of the chest are well-defined, so I can clearly see that the shape is different from that of a human.”

In any situation, it is necessary to analyze in detail the enemy you will be fighting.

But wouldn’t it be meaningless to touch the chest of a dead harpy and compare it to the feel of a human woman’s chest?

“Let’s go up again. There will be more harpies.”

“Okay. I’ll take the lead again.”

As if to indicate that Sagrun would not relax, she placed her right hand on the sword she was wearing in her left hand and walked ahead again.

Anyway, if you go a little further up the Ernian Mountains, it will become a bare mountain and the surroundings will be clearly visible, so I guess there will be no need for Sagrun’s guidance, right?

When the battle began, she was a little worried about whether she should continue to carry Sagrun, which would become a burden.

‘If necessary, you can kill him and then use Shahemoth, who has transformed into Sagrun, to receive the mission reward and leave.’

As I climbed the mountain, thinking about minimizing unnecessary killings, I saw harpies starting to fly from the cliffs of the rocky mountain.

It’s been a while since the group of harpies sent to us died, so they seem to have realized that there’s a problem.

“It looks like a harpy is staying over there. It has built a nest high up.”

“It will be late at night when we get there, but the problem is that we didn’t bring any food.”

“To be honest, I knew we were underprepared, but their military force was beyond what I imagined. I originally planned to go down and reorganize along the way.”

Sa Grun shrugged his shoulders and said.

It seems that Sagrun took on the role of guide to the Raven family assassin, who wore a black coat and clothes without a bag to carry his items, with the intention of showing him that there is a difference between an assassin and an adventurer.

The guy who argued with me at the adventurer’s guild got angry because he thought I was taking killing monsters easily, and it seems Sagrun was planning to show me through real-world experience that adventurer activity itself is not easy.

“The trees in the Ernian Mountains do not bear edible fruit, so if you cannot hunt animals, you have to starve, but because of the harpies, the animal seeds have dried up…”

As I flew through the sky, I looked at the harpy patrolling around the nest.

If it didn’t have a human-like upper body, I would have tried roasting it, but even though I had no hesitation about killing a human, I was slightly reluctant to eat it.

“You can starve for a day. Just keep going.”

The assassin’s body, which was rich in mana, could easily survive without eating or sleeping for about two days.

I had to drink enough water, but that was okay because I could make water using a magic circle.

Sagrun looked at me and tapped the pocket on his waist.

“I remember it’s been a while since I bought it, but I can give you at least a piece of beef jerky.”

“There is no need.”

As the sun was setting, and the orange sunset engulfed part of the sky, Sagrun came to the edge of the forest, where there was no place to hide anymore.

“Honestly, it’s hard to go any higher. I never thought I’d be able to guide you this far.”

Sagrun, who spoke calmly, seemed to be thinking of stopping here.

She told the guy, clearly aware that if she followed him any further, she would become a burden.

“Can you go down by yourself?”

“It’s okay because it’s a familiar road even at night. The moon seems to be bright today, so there’s little chance of getting lost.”

When Sagrun took the lead, he climbed the path without once getting lost, so his guiding ability was trustworthy.

It would be good to go down to Garrett’s territory.

“If you can, take a harpy with you on the way down.”

“Day is the best time to take care of a pretty guy.”

“It’s a corpse anyway.”

“Yes, I wish I could live to see it.”

Without any hesitation, Sagrun turned his back and started going down the mountain.

I stayed still, leaning against a tree at the edge of the forest, intending to move when I got down to a place where no one would notice me no matter what I did.

When I used the presence detection-wave, I saw that Sagrun was running down and was quickly moving away, so I ran toward the mountain range, stepping on a wave wheel.

I surrounded Yeongtu and killed him without fail. I quickly left the edge of the forest and climbed the rocky mountain.

There were a lot of animal bones at the bottom of the rocky mountain, and it looked like the harpies had eaten the animals in their nests and then roughly pushed them out.

I took a quick look around and jumped into the hole in the rocky mountain where the harpy came out.

‘It’s still too early to sleep.’

The Harpy Nest was full of Harpies right from the entrance.

Most of the time, they were in a squatting position with their backs against the wall, and they were not communicating much, and their eyes were closed.

Even though I was thinking of killing them all if necessary, I slowly made my way into the cave, thinking that if I couldn’t detect Youngtu, it would be okay to give him a little more life.

“Kieek.”

“Keeek.”

While the harpies at the entrance seemed to be dozing in silence, the harpies inside were talking among themselves.

It had the face of a human woman, but when I saw it speaking in a language that was difficult to understand, I immediately thought that it was a monster.

‘If I listen a little more, I think I’ll be able to figure out what they’re saying.’

Anyone with a status window would be able to tell that there was something unusual about these harpies using their natural ability to understand language, but I continued walking through the cave to find more harpies.

As I continued through a very dark cave with no torches or anything, I began to hear a man’s voice, not the voice of a harpy.

“Huh! Huh!”

“Don’t do that!!!”

“Next… Next…!”

If you look at it, there are about five people? The harpies were a little confused as they had a slightly different scent than the human women, but here the men were being squeezed by the harpies.

Men were sitting on the outskirts of a slightly widened cave, and a harpy was moving his upper body up and down on top of the man.

The harpy, who received the man’s semen while riding using his strong lower body instead of his arms, got up from his seat as if he was disappointed.

“Key profit…”

With semen flowing from her vagina, the harpy began walking toward the deeper cave.

‘Then is it like a hatchery inside?’

I followed the harpy ahead and quietly entered the depths.

The landing room was wider than the entrance, and there was an even wider cavity inside.

The cavity was divided in half, and on one side there was a harpy holding eggs with its body to hatch them, and on the other side there was a harpy with a convex abdomen growing eggs in its stomach.

The cavity was quite warm, perhaps because there were a lot of harpies gathered there, so it was clear that it was a good place for eggs to hatch.

‘Is this the end?’

Up to this point, the ecology of a normal harpy is the same.

As I was looking around the cavity, thinking that there was no reason for a swarm of harpies to suddenly appear, a blue flame rose from a small stone tower in the center of the cavity.

Even if I was wearing a spirit mask, I had no choice but to show up when there was such a bright light source, so I quickly moved near the entrance to the cavity.

The harpies carrying the eggs were still guarding them, but the harpies with slightly bulging bellies walked towards the blue flame as if possessed.

When many harpies gathered, a blue energy began to spread out from the small stone tower, swirling around the cavity.

(Shahemoth, do you know what that is?)

I figured out why the harpies became strange, but I couldn’t figure out exactly what it was, so I called Shahemos.

(I don’t know. I don’t think the devil used it.)

Thinking that it was not a good idea to expose my body to the blue energy to feel the exact effect, I created a shadow of a shadow and threw it towards the small stone tower.

Circular flow spiral

When the powerful force completely destroyed the stone tower, the blue energy that had been spinning around as if filling the cavity disappeared in an instant.

“Keeeeek!?”

“Keeeee!!!”

The harpies were busy moving their bodies around, trying to find me who had broken the stone tower.

I destroyed it, but I thought I should make the surrounding area quiet, so I could investigate the stone tower as the cause of the harpy swarm.

Using Shadow Craft, I pulled out the Great Sword of Shadow and swung it three times while rotating my body very quickly in the cavity.

Suddenly! Suddenly! Suddenly!

The bodies of the harpies who died in an instant were separated into three or two pieces.

I approached the center and looked at the remains of the stone tower.

“Magic tools?”

At the center of the stone tower, there was a magic tool that seemed to be the cause of the blue flame that transformed the harpy, and I packed it into my coat pocket.

‘Next, we’ll hear the stories from the captured men.’

If the owner of this magic tool were alive, I think the story would end easily.
