Chapter 268 – The Family Man (2)
“Arrival.”
When they arrived in front of Dagon’s cave beyond the mysterious portal, Elsie and A.A were looking around with identical expressions on their faces. I got off the carriage with a chuckle, saying that they were like country folk who couldn’t even teleport. Elsie, who was sitting in the coachman’s seat with his ears and tail stiffly erect, came to his senses her belatedly and looked at me. Then he jumped out of his seat with an excited face, then he grabbed my hand and said,
“Priest! Awesome! Is it magic It smells completely different! How far have you come?”
Eve, who had ridden the carriage once when returning from the West Coast, sneered and got out of the carriage leisurely. I was playing with Elsie and listening to her admiration of her. She thought I had cast a spell and was excited.
“Priest! Awesome! Priests now also use magic! Cool!”
It was too much trouble to explain how Aglio Festa’s wagon works, so I decided to just listen to her cheers her in silence. Ei, who came to her senses belatedly, walked out of her wagon and smiled. She said.
“Incredible. Is this the wagon you got as a gift from Ashildern?”
“Yes. The Queen gave it to me as a gift.”
“The Queen…”
Ayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy of her words of her. Ayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyi ‘s face 그녀의 was a little bit of a shade, then she was back to normal again. I could understand her complicated feelings of her. The gift of her carriage her to me, her extramarital man her, and not to herself, her son-in-law her, must have meant a lot to her. She wasn’t aiming, but she was quite nice to see the change in her complexion her.
“Why are you like that?”
“Oh, no.”
Her face was shaded again and she put on her usual bright smile. Eve said as she drew out her sword.
“Fuck it’s grown already.”
As he said, the surrounding forest had thick grass like the last time he saw it. Is it because of Dagon’s influence? We had to move forward while cutting down the vegetation again. This time I didn’t have to bother using a knife. It was because there were three people using the blade. A.A., Eve, and Elsie took turns cutting down vegetation and moving forward. A.A asked me as we walked.
“Priest. But where are you going now?”
“Soon there will be a fierce battle in the eastern plains, so we need to equip ourselves with some proper equipment. An acquaintance of mine is acquainted with the owner of the treasure window here, so I want to get some weapons today.”
“It’s a weapon… This sword I use is enough for me.”
I glanced at her sword.
[Advanced iron sword
Dull iron sword favored by mercenaries
Shop festival
24/24]
It was a good weapon, but my husband wanted to give my woman a better weapon. Eve asked.
“What is it, the groom then, is that the reason you brought Elsie and me?”
Eve asked. I nodded. Elsie asked, pricking up her ears at the mention of a better weapon.
“Priest. Then can I use those big claws too?”
It refers to the claws worn by mercenaries. As she used her claws, she used to show a subtle envy at the claws that were harder than hers. Originally, she intended to pack her armor for Elsie, who jumped in and fought, but if she wanted Claw, she was willing to tell her what to do. By the way, is there anything like a claw in that warehouse?
“I do not know. I don’t know if there is a clone. I don’t even know what’s in there.”
“Still, you take care of my weapon, I always get help from the priest.”
A.A said so as if he had no face. I responded casually.
“Because she is my woman.”
“Seriously, stop saying you are my woman. No matter how angry I am?”
AI’s face turned red. I smiled and winked. As soon as Ai saw it, she thrust her fists out without a word.
Fuck!
“100 million!”
“Priest!”
The bridge of her nose her crumpled. I sat down with my nose covered in a sharp sensation. A.A. She came to me in a fright after hitting herself, she said.
“Oh, are you okay? Sorry. Seeing the wink, I stop without realizing it…”
“Groom, I think you deserved it this time.”
Eve defended A.A. Elsie said while holding my shoulder.
“Is the priest very sick? Shall I avenge you?”
“It’s okay. Elsie. It is an expression of affection between us.”
At those words, A.A shook her head and sighed. Eve said with a chuckle.
“It’s an expression of affection.”
“No!”
“I guess so.”
So we entered the cave again. Eve, who had faced the gigantic being the other day, frowned as soon as she stepped out as if she was reluctant to enter her cave. Elsie, not understanding her rejection of her, asked Eve.
“Mermaid. Are you scared?”
“Uh.”
Eve was very candid. Seeing her confident demeanor of her, Elsie looked around the cave and said,
“I didn’t know mermaids were afraid of caves.”
“It’s not the cave, it’s what’s inside that’s scary.”
“Bat?”
“Fuck really.”
“Right. Do bears live in this cave?”
“Uh. Fuck I’m so fucking scared of bears.”
Eve seemed to have given up on explaining to Elsie. It was a natural attitude because it was better to see it firsthand. A.A laughed at Eve and Elsie’s talk show and said,
“The two of you are also very good.”
“See? Right. He’s always sweating with me. Right?”
Eve said as she wrapped her arms around Elsie’s side of her. Elsie, her cheek her touching her Eve’s chest her, nodded her head.
“Yes.”
“Yes Yes?”
AI’s face turned red. Eve looked at it and smiled.
“If you train your body, it’s the same. Didn’t you think it was strange?”
“Oh, no.”
“You’re lewd, warrior.”
“Because it’s not!”
A.A screamed loudly. Seeing A.A’s attitude, Elsie asked Eve.
“Mermaid. What do you mean naughty Is sweating indecent?”
“Don’t make me a weirdo, just keep your mouth shut. Okay?”
“I get it.”
We arrived near the lake. The lake was emitting a soft blue light over the calm waters. This light was so soft and mysterious that I felt like I would get food poisoning the moment I drank the water. Eve asked.
“Groom. Is this water safe? Can I come in? When you enter, you look like you’re going to get a skin disease. You didn’t shine like this last time.”
Ayy looked around the lake and then she said.
“It’s a phenomenon where mana fills up and shines. This is a phenomenon that occurs when there is a medium that emits mana… What is it?”
“It’s a big fucking monster.”
“Yes?”
I poked my head out below the surface. The rippling water shone transparently. The water, rising up to the bottom without knowing the limit, showed the point where the floor was covered with pitch-black darkness. I was in trouble with the jewel that Artie gave me.
Shall I throw this? Or should I ask Eve to go in and show her this jewel? Since all you have to do is look at the jewel anyway, shouldn’t you just throw it? I didn’t want to risk Eve getting in. I first threw a stone rolling on the floor.
Fondant
A pebble sank to the floor with a cheerful sound. I could see a black figure wriggling down there. It looked like the shadow of a head, or the silhouette of stir-fried octopus. Convinced that Dagon was awake, I threw the jewel Artie gave me toward the bottom of the lake as hard as I could.
Phut!
This time, a loud sound spread out as the waves splashed. As the water splashed, Ei, who reflexively turned her body to avoid it, said.
“It’s a surprise. What did you do? What’s down there?”
“Yes.”
“What do you have?”
“It’s a big fucking monster.”
Eve looked at me with a worried face. She stood in front of her and said, Elsie had come to alleviate her Eve’s anxiety over her.
“Don’t worry, mermaid. I am a marimba tribe that also catches bears.”
“…Groom. This is that… Sure way right? It’s not that I don’t trust the groom, but it’s because I don’t trust that monster.”
“It’s okay. Because Arty is a friend. I said I could just show you that, so how would you react?”
A.A didn’t seem to feel a sense of danger at all from my reaction, which was contrary to Eve’s uneasy look at her. Her eyes her were confused as to which rhythm she to tune to. A.A asked me.
“Is that really dangerous?”
I shook my head. Then he said, stretching out her chest to her.
“It’s safe.”
“I know.”
A.A nodded her questioning face to her face her and drew her knife back. Eve held onto the handle of her song as well, holding onto her shoulder her, intending to throw Elsie behind her if necessary. Elsie said with a grin, as if she felt Eve’s posture she expressed her fear of her.
“Don’t worry, mermaid.”
“Uh.”
Eve answered briefly and looked at her sleep her. But she waited for a long time and nothing came up. Still, she was a little nervous, but when nothing happened, she relaxed and she looked at me. Eve also looked at me with a subtle expression. Elsie asked.
“Priest. Did you trick us?”
“Well… Why aren’t you coming?”
I was equally frustrated. If you show that, it will come out, right? Why don’t you come out? Could it be that you didn’t see it? I scratched my head and thought. In order to talk to Dagon, I had to find it first. I said to Eve with the most apologetic expression on my face.
“Eve. Excuse me, could you go in and pick up what I just threw?”
“Is the groom crazy?”
Eve demanded, furrowing her eyebrows.
“No, so…”
I opened my mouth to explain something.
Bang!
A lake exploded right behind me. Startled, Ai drew her sword, took my hand and dragged her behind me. Elsie reflexively blocked Eve in front of her and grabbed Elsie by the shoulder her and her Eve pushed her behind her. We once again met eye to eye with the giant monster.
It was a pillar of too bizarre shape to resemble any form. The pillars were full of eyes and mouths, and they were moving like gills. The largest of the eyes looked at us, and the largest of the mouths pointed at us with its tongue sticking out.
A voice was heard in our heads.
[This jewel. Did you give it?]
I nodded. Artie’s friend Dagon. It was the moment when I came face to face with that terrifying being once more.
