074.

Bella’s priority in life has always been her family.

A father who always supports his choices.

Looking at her face alone, she is nagging, but her mother has worries and kindness in it.

And the one and only youngest brother.

The eastern forward city of Gravas was not a very good environment for the family.

It was because I had no money and lived in the outskirts, so I had to be careful of monsters and monsters.

Still, I had no choice but to accept reality because I did not have the money or ability to move.

Then, a mysterious wanderer named Roch came.

That encounter was a turning point in his life.

discovered his own abilities.

With his support, he was able to move to the Empire without any shortage.

Although the location is on the outskirts, it is safer than before.

As it is a city attached to the Alchemister School, it is now possible to lead a more comfortable life than before.

Thank you for that.

Saying thank you isn’t enough.

It was respectful. More than that, I had aspirations.

‘Locram-nim is different.’

It was different from the warriors I saw occasionally in Gravas.

Not all warriors are righteous and good.

It was common for each of them to move on their own desires, and the process of reaching even if the end was the right thing to save the majority was not good.

But Lokram didn’t.

He achieved his goal without harming others and helped himself.

Even if it meant recognizing and investing in talent, Bella had no intention of changing what she felt.

Priorities changed then.

family and Lokram.

Bella, who had put the two on the same line, was now confused.

Kwokwaang!

Hey! Kyaaagh!

The simple explosive potion he installed exploded the passage leading to the underground.

As a result, he was released from prison and was crushed to death by rampaging monsters.

‘Uh, what should I do?’

But there are more monsters than that.

It only blocked the movement path, but there were still many monsters.

It was more than the number captured for the academic conference.

‘I need to find out what the reason is.’

At some point, the shared consciousness magic linking Lokram and Fenolino was cut off.

So, he and Seira were the only ones who could immediately stop this situation.

‘Saira. How is the banquet hall?’

‘The Head of Summoning Department and her subordinates are holding back… is. Once many… It’s a situation where we’re going to fight and subdue monsters.’

Thoughts are interrupted infrequently.

It must mean that you are going through an urgent situation yourself.

Therefore, it was not the time to count the circumstances that were taking place on top of the furnace.

I don’t have the ability to do that.

‘I have to stop the underground.’

I used all the explosive magic tools.

The main aisle was all knocked down with it.

Still, there are many avenues.

The monsters will eventually find a way and come up.

Plus, you can see it from the first floor window.

She could see several monsters going to the city.

That was the cause of the trouble.

‘My family is in danger.’

There is a garrison force in the city.

I was prepared for something like this to happen.

However, more monsters than that were variables.

‘It will definitely break through.’

Bella stopped thinking and moved.

It was right at this time to find and eliminate the culprit behind the increase in monsters.

‘I wish I had more helpers… .’

I grabbed the crossbody bag I was wearing.

Before I knew it, I set foot on the side road leading to the basement and headed down.

Crack!

“Kyaaup!”

Did you go down the middle?

A monster leaped toward her.

It is a low-class monster.

He let out a mixture of screams and elation and threw the glass bottle.

Kruck!

thud!

The bottle broke and he rushed to the wet wall.

Bang your head against the wall, not Bella.

The action did not stop while the head was broken.

“Ha ha ha… This works.”

It is an enchanting agent made by refining the pheromone of an entity that covets the spirit of demons.

I brought it just in case, but it seemed to be eaten without any problems until the lower classes.

Underground arrived.

The large space where the monsters were supposed to be was a mess.

Blood and flesh were scattered here and there as if they had attacked the surrounding monsters.

Red eyes flash in a space filled with a terrible stench.

“gulp.”

Bella didn’t take her eyes off it.

At the same time, I was able to find a brightly shining summoning circle in the wide underground.

‘That’s it!’

On top of it, particles gather and form is built.

It’s a summoner’s long term.

In other words, it was certain that the Summoning Department head was responsible.

‘Damn it b*tch!’

After cursing at her inwardly, he threw the enchantment around.

All that remains here are low-level monsters anyway.

bottom of the food chain.

An inferior species waiting for leftovers from higher predators.

Hey!

The guys clung to the floor and walls with pleasure.

Thanks to that, the road was open.

‘To break the summoning circle, you need to find a medium. medium… Where is the medium… .’

It is a summoning circle that is too bright compared to the surroundings.

As I approached with a frown, the monster that had been completely summoned roared.

Heh heh!

“Oh really… .”

Breathing in, Bella threw herself as soon as she heard the roar.

It is a thick stone pillar belonging to the blind spot.

I checked the summoned monster while catching my breath behind it.

‘Why is the high-level monster Glaod coming out!’

It was full of low-level monsters, so I thought it would be around it this time.

But it wasn’t.

A huge 5m long lion with a black mane.

The boy stomped his foot lightly.

Kwa Hung!

Hey!

A gust of wind ripples, tearing the demons who coveted the enchanting agent.

The drug didn’t work for him.

Rather, it twitched its human-sized nose and searched for other prey.

‘Hee!’

A sense of smell that detects prey hundreds of kilometers away.

Tremendous leg strength using black magic.

Glaod noticed Bella’s location.

My body stiffened at the bright yellow eyes looking right in this direction.

‘This is the end!’

Life so far flows like a kaleidoscope.

He suffered from freckles on his face since childhood.

Even after becoming a guide for a mercenary guild he barely got a job with, he suffered from skills problems.

That’s how I lived a life that was ignored by everyone.

Then I finally met Lokram and saw the light.

‘I can’t die here!’

When I thought about it, it was unfair.

The golden age of my life is just beginning, but I’m just going to die by monsters?

Bella jumped up.

He counted the number he had and came up with an answer.

I poured the potion I took out of my crossbody bag onto the top of my head.

Kreung?

Feeling strange, Glaod tilted his head.

He twitched his nose and inspected the stone pillar.

In line with that stride, Bella moved slowly.

Being blocked by a stone pillar, Glaod couldn’t see Bella.

The moment he turned his back on the summoning circle.

Taat!

Leaving behind Glaod, who had disappeared behind a stone pillar, Bella ran.

‘Joe, just a little more!’

A summoning circle that approaches quickly.

The medium is the skull of an unknown monster.

As soon as I got there, I was thinking of kicking it with my feet.

With only that purpose in mind, I worked hard on my feet.

‘All, all here… !’

The smell was erased and the run, like an adventure, worked.

From nob le mt l dot com

Joy fills the body.

Now break the summoning circle and take the exit on the other side.

It was time to think so.

chin!

“… uh.”

when did you stretch it?

How else did you notice it?

The feeling of pressure from the tail tightening the waist intensifies.

“Big! Kuck!”

The air in his lungs escaped with irresistible force.

It’s suffocating.

Glaod slowly retrieved his tail and brought it in front of him.

The visual horror was overwhelming.

“hehehehe! Black. Kuck.”

The guy we met hanging on to his long tail quietly stared at Bella.

His eyes wondering that he had deceived himself.

Catching his breath, she moved her arm.

To die is to die.

Bella didn’t give up.

It was a possible action because the resentment of dying now is greater than the fear.

“Turn off… ! let go!”

He moved his free hand below the elbow.

The metal bottle he was holding dearly hit him on the bridge of his nose.

A splash of grape-colored liquid flowed down his nose.

that was the signal

Heh heh!

A roaring glade scratched her nose, Bella not paying attention.

Freed by this, she breathed out and withdrew.

“Huh. omg! Sat, it worked.”

It’s a stink that wouldn’t have been eaten if it wasn’t aimed at the nose.

It was made by concentrating the manure of a lower level monster than that one.

‘Because it’s like a prey weaker than himself has marked his territory on his face.’

In a way, it is natural for her to react to such an extent that her skin peels off.

‘If it wasn’t just now, it would have died before I could even use it.’

It was possible because the guy showed a gap.

Now is the time to take advantage of this golden hour.

Bella ran as fast as she could and broke the medium of the summoning circle.

Quick!

As the skull crumbled, the summoning circle lost its light.

The monsters that were about to be summoned disperse, and only darkness descends underground.

With this, the continuous influx of monsters is gone.

The only thing left is how to get rid of high-level monsters… .

“ぅ.”

Bella looked up at Glaod, who was bleeding on the bridge of her nose and her eyes glowing.

Suddenly, he was standing in front of her.

‘This time, I really die.’

Intuition was clear.

It’s because the guy’s wide snout snapped like a ray of light.

With no means of further resistance, Bella unconsciously closed her eyes tightly.

Sooner or later, death will be met with an excruciating agony.

‘Ugh… uh?’

The expected pain did not come.

I wondered about it, so I opened my eyes.

Glaod’s teeth gleamed coolly right in front of him.

“heheheuk!”

He’s a stiff guy with his mouth wide open.

What is the reason?

Swallowing in bewilderment, I looked around.

Before I could find the cause, a familiar heavy bass sound hit my ear.

“To make it this far by yourself? Good work.”

A rough, rough hand that rests on his shoulder and gently bites back.

It wasn’t the high-level monsters that filled Bella’s eyes before she knew it.

There is only a sense of stability.

It was such a wide climb.

“lock… Mr. Ram.”

“Rest.”

He sighed indifferently and took a step.

Then a startling thing happened.

Glaod, who had slowly closed his mouth, slowly withdrew.

Kheung!

The guy showed it soon after, as if he was angry with his condition.

Lokram stretched out his hand towards him.

and sing it

Before I knew it, the tattoo on my left hand turned golden.

“Agitate.”

Khuong!

Fufufufufu! Glaod’s mouth closed as he roared to overcome the pressure.

Not just the mouth.

Iron powder that pierced his torso, including his limbs.

Whoa!

But somehow, he didn’t die.

It roared more violently than before and tried to tear off the iron powder.

“Is it also advanced?”

Rokram muttered and raised his hand.

Then the sharpened black awl spun.

keying!

‘I-that’s all made of iron powder?’

Bella saw Lokram’s true power for the first time.

He did not deal with warrior-like struggles or auras.

With a power he had never seen before, he extracted iron powder from the surroundings, formed it, and injected it with formidable power.

‘How many powers does Lokram-nim handle?’

As the question grew, the huge awl that had been spitting out was dyed red.

The powders rub against each other and retain high heat.

He checked its condition and lowered his hand.

As if that was the signal, the awl was fired.

Bang!

Even after penetrating the hard body of a high-ranking monster, it penetrates the wall behind it and disappears, as if it had enough energy left.

Lokram recovered the decaying corpse of Glaod and turned around.

Then he said it in a nonchalant tone.

“It’s on the way after dealing with the monsters that came down to the city, so don’t worry.”

“Well, then my family… .”

Rokram nodded at Bella’s question, which made him think more realistically.

“Everyone is safe, so don’t worry and go upstairs. Because there are still things to do.”

“Black… yes.”

A tear flowed from Bella’s eye, perhaps as a result of the relaxation.

I am relieved that the situation that could have led to a catastrophe ended safely.

But I couldn’t rest here.

The culprit behind this was still at the banquet hall.

***

“Lokram.”

“Looks like you’ve overpowered them all.”

The banquet hall that I reached by climbing the stairs also seemed to have calmed down.

The protagonist who organized this place, Seira, approached.

I pointed to the left forearm she was clutching.

“I think you need treatment.”

“are you okay. Because it’s not that serious. Rather… .”

Seira glanced at Bella.

Bella reported that she understood the meaning.

“There was a summoning circle that kept summoning monsters. It is the way to break it and come up.”

“Good job. Now it’s your turn to ask for your sins.”

The banquet hall just didn’t look good.

It’s just that the atmosphere has calmed down, but it’s full of casualties.

“Turn it off.”

“Huh. omg.”

“leg. I can’t feel my legs… .”

The table where the dinner and drinks should have been placed is covered with someone’s limbs and blood.

The same goes for the chandeliers that sway weakly from the ceiling.

red everywhere

The perpetrator of such a thing was caught in the middle.

“Chief of Summoning Department.”

He raised his head at my call.

Eyes full of evil and a face crumpled to the fullest.

The summoners who participated in it glared at me in the same way.

That’s cheeky.

“Keugh!”

Their heads fell as they used Overwhelm.

Maintaining that state, I called Fenolino to myself.

“It’s my turn.”

He would have dealt with the archbishop, but he did not hesitate to call Fenolino.

After tidying up the city, she flicked her finger in the air.

Two softly approached chairs arrive.

She sat there and elegantly crossed her legs.

then kiss me

“Sit. Lokram.”

It is a spot where hundreds of couples flock.

Sitting in the middle of such a seat only increased the burden.

I didn’t call it that.

Somehow, it feels like being dried up by the flow of phenolino.

“Come on.”

However, it is not possible to put on the mask of Master and assert its authority in this place.

I finally sat down quietly.

Satisfied with this, Fenolino looked at me and smiled thinly, but then sank into a cold expression.

She looked down at those who took my overwhelm and declared it here.

“I will not ask you for the crime of disturbing the academic society I sponsor.”

Fenolino raised his hand.

The immense magical energy that was gathered there formed the shape of a huge thorny vine.

I read the magic imprinted on each thorn in one breath and quietly swallowed my saliva.

‘It’s an amalgamation of all kinds of torture magic.’

The moment I touched it even slightly, I would have to experience the pain in my three fingers as a phantom pain.

“However, the sin of putting my beloved Lokram in a very, very dangerous situation will continue until I beg you to kill me. So please don’t say anything. I want to vent my anger.”

Fenolino grinned.

“You understand?”

It was the scariest face I had ever seen.
