38 – Monster Paradise.

The Heavy Rock Turtle, as the name suggests, is a turtle carrying a huge rock on its back. The huge guy, over 10m tall, was carrying a huge rock on his back that was appropriate for his body size.

“Guuu…”

As the man with a human-tall head sticking out of the shell cried out in a low voice, the rock attached to the shell fell off and began to fly towards Ed and Arebijou.

‘You said it was a monster close to a ‘wizard’ who piles rocks on its back for defense and attack. That seems right.’

Thinking that a book would be helpful for the first time in a while, Ed ordered a skeleton to knock down flying rocks. However, if you just hit the rock like this, the weapon made of metal will quickly deteriorate, so Ed immediately ordered all his summoned creatures to move forward to close the distance to the Heavy Rock Turtle.

‘I’d rather have the sword.’

The skeleton standing in front of Ed threw back his sword and raised his shield with both hands. As I slowly moved forward, hitting the flying rocks with my shield, the Heavy Rock Turtle tucked its head and legs into its shell.

“When hunting heavy rock turtles, the most important thing is the ability to pierce the strongest armor. The Heavy Rock Turtle, which jumps into a defensive posture and only throws rocks, is very difficult to deal with, but if there are not enough people who can use sword skills, it is recommended to use slow movements to escape.”

If you follow the description of the Heavy Rock Turtle in Southern Monster Ecology, it’s an incredibly strong coward.

“I think Arrebijou’s sword skill is important. I’ll try to use the Curse of Berserk as I get closer, so please save your strength.”

“Yes. But since the size is that big, wouldn’t it be troublesome to go berserk?”

“That’s because you can’t attack if you put your head like that.”

As he slammed the slowly flying rocks, he approached the Heavy Rock Turtle at a distance where he could curse it, and Ed used the Curse of Berserk. Like the Desert Lizard, it was certain that it had low resistance to curses, but the Heavy Rock Turtle didn’t pull out its head like I thought.

Instead, the flying rocks started to fly more randomly and roughly, making it difficult to beat the attack.

‘I don’t think any of the curses I can use will work?’

I used the curse of blindness, but it was useless as I had already put my head and legs into the shell and was randomly throwing rocks. It was difficult to affect the decrease in stamina because it was just standing still, and exhaustion did not have a significant effect. When I cast the curse of poor judgment, there was finally a response.

Heavy Rock Turtle pulled one leg out. It was a pity that I didn’t take out the head, but I finally had a part that I could attack.

“Mr. Arebijou!”

“yes!”

If you use Ed’s summons, Skeleton and Zombie Desert Lizard, you can hurt him, but to make sure, he decided to send Arrebiju, who can use sword skills.

-Suddenly!

Arrebijou blessed his body, strengthened his physical abilities, ran out with a sword wrapped in mana, and inflicted a proper wound on the Heavy Rock Turtle’s leg. Because it was a tortoise living in the desert, not much blood came out, but the curse of excessive bleeding took effect because of the wound.

The blood that flowed from the Heavy Rock Turtle’s legs began to stain the green grass, but as if the curse of poor judgment had been broken by the pain, I immediately inserted the bleeding leg into the shell. As he put his leg in, he pressed the wound tightly to stop the bleeding, and blood slowly flowed out from the place where his leg went in.

-bang! bang! bang! bang!

And, as if the curse of berserk on the Heavy Rock Turtle had been broken, he used a rock to block the front of the shell. If you use sword skill, you can cut rocks, but you can use the rocks piled up on your back to perfectly protect your body and stop attacking, so you can loosen your fighting posture a bit.

“Ed, what should I do? I think I can attack more if I cut down the rock…”

“The efficiency won’t be high. They don’t seem to have any intention of fighting now, so let’s move. Monsters may come after hearing the commotion.”

I think there will be many monsters who hear the sound of falling rocks and avoid them, but there will also be fearless ones who come to see the situation. Ed threw away the three zombie desert lizards that were messed up by being hit by the rocks and moved with only three skeletons and three zombie lizards.

‘I’m too weak in the state I’m putting restrictions on.’

Ed moved away from the Heavy Rock Turtle and squeezed his sword in his hand. If there was a Death Knight Arang or a Skeleton Knight, even if the Heavy Rock Turtle hid in the shell, it would have been cut through the shell with a sword, but now it was impossible.

When dealing with monsters in the north, the monsters tend to have strong resistance to curses, so I fired various curses without chanting as I had them, rather than using them to deliver the final blow like I do now.

‘It would be impossible to challenge the Desert King Lizard right now.’

When I calmly grasped the power I had now, I felt that I was lacking right now.

‘I think it’s better to return the fighting method ‘to the original’.’

Ed thought as he looked at Arebijou, who was catching his breath. Now, it’s a bit excessive to be called a 7th-level necromancer, but he was fighting according to that level. Even if there were no powerful summons, if you used magic at the level of a special necromancer, you could defeat even the Heavy Rock Turtle.

“Mr. Ed?”

Arrebijou, feeling Ed’s gaze, met his gaze and said.

“Mr. Arebijou, shall we go and defeat the Heavy Rock Turtle again?”

“Is it possible?”

“It will be a little different this time.”

Ed said as he slightly lifted the sword in his hand.

‘One skeleton.’

On the way back to the Heavy Rock Turtle, seeing that Ed drastically reduced the number of summons, Arrebijou had several thoughts. Judging by Ed’s expression, he didn’t give up. Rather, should I say that my face is more comfortable now? He looked full of confidence.

‘I think it was the time when he overpowered me with a curse and laughed lightly.’

Recalling Ed’s face he had seen at that time, Arebijou’s face blushed slightly. I thought I’d gotten used to it after hanging out together recently, but I also liked Ed’s face.

-thud! thud!

When I returned to the place where I parted with the Heavy Rock Turtle, I could see the Heavy Rock Turtle attaching a rock to its back using mana. The heavy rock turtle, who pulled out his head and looked around, found Ed and Arrebijou, and tried to put his head back in.

-Suddenly!

“uh?”

In the blink of an eye, Arebijou decapitated Edgar Heavy Rock Turtle. The long wound that Ed had cut with his sword was stained white like frost, so no blood splattered.

“Guuu…?!”

The Heavy Rock Turtle also let out a sound of surprise, not for using rock magic.

“It didn’t rust.”

Ed put on the Bone Gauntlet and Bone Greaves, which can be said to be part of the Bone Armor, and overloaded his core to demonstrate his speed, then immediately opened the subspace. And the Bone Spear, the rain of bones pouring down from subspace.

The Skeleton Lizard and Skeleton’s bones, which had been disassembled so that the Heavy Rock Turtle could not insert its neck and legs, were shot out of the subspace. The bone spear penetrated the skin of the Heavy Rock Turtle’s neck and legs, making it impossible to insert it through the holes in the shell.

“Goooooo!!!”

The Heavy Rock Turtle, realizing that the situation was in jeopardy, started throwing rocks at Ed. Ed put on his bone greave and ran towards his head sticking out, avoiding flying rocks.

-bang! bang! bang!

A huge rock fell to hinder Ed’s movements, but Ed easily changed direction and avoided the attack. When the rock magic didn’t work, the Heavy Rock Turtle opened its mouth wide to intimidate the enemy. The mouth, which was far beyond Ed’s height by the size of his huge body, reached out with great speed and gritted his teeth.

-Ah!

‘I can react.’

Cyril’s bluish blade hovered over the gauntlet and Ed’s sword. Ed took a big step to the left of the Heavy Rock Turtle, stepped on the shell, and bounced. I stabbed the Heavy Rock Turtle’s head deeply with the sword I held with both hands.

-Pooh Woowook

Since he was stabbed by the sword, blood should spurt out, but the thick cold mana froze the wound. Ed didn’t stop there, and thrust the sword deep into his head until only the handle of the sword remained.

– To-dududuk

As the Heavy Rock Turtle died, the mountain of stones piled up on its back began to crumble. Ed jumped off his head, got out of the area, and arrived at Arebijou.

-Pajik

‘Are the bones of normal skeletons not able to withstand it?’

The sole of the bone greave Ed was wearing shattered. This gauntlet was also in poor condition due to mana being used in excess of what was acceptable.

‘I don’t think the bones used for the Bone Spear are in good shape and will need maintenance.’

I don’t know if it was recovered right after the Heavy Rock Turtle died, but when the Heavy Rock Turtle died, the rocks piled on its back collapsed and damaged the bones. Seeing that the back of the Heavy Rock Turtle, which had been collapsing all the time, had calmed down, Ed said to Arrebijou, who was standing in a daze.

“Mr. Arebijou, can you keep this a secret from Saint Mary?”

“Ed, wouldn’t this be a bit difficult…?”

“I see. Then, can’t we postpone it as much as possible?”

“Yes… the saintess must be very surprised.”

I couldn’t hide it from the people of the Church of Truth anyway, so I tried it once, but the moment I showed my power, I felt at ease.

‘This is a vacation.’

Ed thought as he looked up at the cloudless sky.

Ed’s real vacation has begun.
