Scavenger of the Fallen World (6)
-How fun.
The woman who crawled out from the serpent’s mouth that bit into the dimension mumbled to herself.
-I had already lost all hope and thought this world was left dry. How?
-It doesn’t matter. Now that we’ve found a new foundation, we have to keep that from happening again.
The male monster that followed her replied bluntly. She let out a sigh.
-How boring. If you think like that, how can you afford to enjoy life? If you don’t think more flexibly, you won’t live long…huh?
The moment she stretched out into the air while talking slowly, she noticed golden sparks flying in front of her face.
-What? Why is there such a powerful thing in this world-
She was engulfed by lightning. Her reflexive defensive barriers did little to protect her as she was roasted whole.
-This dimension too…Hero Universe!
The woman in the front was killed instantly by the Thunder Empress’s destructive power, leaving only the monstrous man. His boss wasn’t fragile enough to die from a single blast of lightning, which meant this foe was beyond understanding. He tried to take a step back.
-Kiiiiii!
-Move back at once.
“No.” The man gave orders to the monsters coming out the tear in space behind him, taking command now that their leader was killed. But it wouldn’t be so easy; he couldn’t keep track of the movements of the lightning.
“You can’t leave.” A magic circle of a complex shape moved out from Shin Eunah’s outstretched hand. The monster’s eyes went wide as the crack in space was forcibly closed behind him. The advanced technique she had used to close it was amazing, but what was more frightening was the tremendous power behind it.
-What, how…a monster!
“You’re the monster.” Shin Eunah used the magic circle to lock away the tear. It required terribly precise calculations and output of magic, but she performed the task as simple as turning a lock.
“A monster that hunts humanity.” Anyone who studied magic would know how absurd Shin Eunah’s actions were.
‘Let’s finish this now.’ Shin Eunah quickly completed the magic around the gate, which normally required several professionals working together, and opened her hands to fire off another lightning bolt. Most of the monsters that were pouring out from the gate behind him were burned away. Shin Eunah continuously fired off lightning towards the gate while extending a hand to aim at the escaping man.
-What?!
The monster was hit directly this time, too distracted by the other monsters to avoid the lightning strike.
-Uff…shit…!
He was a bit more durable than the woman, having survived the first blow, but that didn’t matter. She emitted a stronger flow of lightning, burning him completely through.
“More…I think I can do better.” A cruel smile found its way onto Shin Eunah’s lips. She danced in the air, creating dozens of magic circles that sparkled with energy. She was exerting herself to the degree that wasn’t possible before. Thanks to the benadelite particles that harmonized with her body to make her the lord of lightning and mana.
“Whoo.” A tremendous amount of mana flowed out through the magic circles. She didn’t resist it, letting the mana leave her body. The sound of sparks filled the air.
-Kii…
-It’s a new land.
-I can feel the radiant energy of life!
In the process of preparing her magic, the lightning bombardment had stopped, and several monsters continued to flood out. It was good timing, as she had just regained control of the magic circle and set them as targets.
“Huh!” The magic circles overlapping in the air interlocked and rotated like clockwork, spewing out a terrifying amount of lightning that filled the sky with a bright radiance.
-Kugaaaaa!
-Bang!
Thousands of streaks of lightning bolts ran at the speed of light, turning the monsters into ash.

Everything stopped as the world was filled with light and the sound of something breaking. Shin Eunah instinctively sensed that the gate had been destroyed.
“That much…” It was good that her physical performance and output were amplified, but she couldn’t get a sense of how much her maximum output was. Still, she was able to learn a bit more about her newfound strength.
“Top ranker…it’s possible.” She was referring to the world’s top rankings from 1st to 7th. She was confident she wouldn’t be pushed back if she faced them like this. Perhaps if she could adapt a bit more to the changes, she would be in another dimension altogether.
“No more traces of them.” There was no hint that the gate would reopen elsewhere. Since they had taken a bad hit, it would take them at least a few months to judge the situation and develop countermeasures. That would be enough time for the Golden Hidden Mole tribe to find their new kingdom. Shin Eunah nodded, satisfied, and descended.
“Senior…” Kang Shin-hyuk watched the scene of the battle through the window of the workshop. He left the forge and was staring up at her with his mouth wide open. Shin Eunah smiled proudly at him.
“Did you see? What do you think? What do you think?”
“How do you sleep…” Kang Shin-hyuk swallowed, thinking of the two who opened the gate. It was the first time he had seen such a human monster. He intuitively recognized them as being stronger than he had ever dared to dream of.
‘They had to be in a fairly high position in the organization called Jormungand.’ No, judging from the power they exuded, they might have been executives. However, Shin Eunah blew them both away with little more than the wave of her hand, even destroying the gate that had several S-class monsters. It was an absolute power that could destroy the world.
‘She’s still so far away.’ Kang Shin-hyuk thought so and let out a laugh. The idea of catching up to her was so far-fetched he couldn’t even feel jealous about it. It felt like he had just started to reach his goal. If he wanted to catch up, he had to practice constantly. As he thought that, another impulse hit him.
‘I want to create a weapon that can contain such power…’ He probably wouldn’t have thought of it before, but the urge that popped up inside of him wasn’t too bad. It was a valuable source of inspiration, at least, that wouldn’t go away easily. Perhaps it even was proof that he had grown up a little bit. He squeezed his fists.
“Wow…” When he came to, Shin Eunah was staring at him with tears in her eyes, indicating she had reverted to granddaughter mode.
“Won’t you praise me? I got rid of a bunch of bad guys.”
“I’ll ask you. What sort of praise do you want?”
“Pat my hair.”
“…Well, alright.” Right now, he would’ve preferred the hybrid mode, but it was natural she would drift back into granddaughter mode. He patted her hair gently, but she had an expression like she would explode. He had trouble patting her, who had shown the power and dignity of the Thunder Empress just seconds ago.
“Then, is the battle over now?”
“No, not completely.” She started at him with an expression like she wanted more attention, but he changed the topic.
“Jormungand’s appearance is evidence that the world’s unique monsters have begun to move. They can’t be thought of as an outside invader, they’re already here.”
“It feels like they’re a cockroach.”
“Maybe similar to that.”
‘If you found one, you should think that there are thirty?’ He felt a bit depressed at that idea. It may not be an issue for him, but it would be bad news for the Mole tribe, who would have to adapt to this world in the future.
“Don’t look like that, junior. As long as humanity is around, there must be monsters. It would be scarier if you couldn’t see them.”
“Oh, I know how that feels. The feeling of fear is different when you find traces of a cockroach versus actually seeing one…”
“I think you’re fixed on the idea of viewing monsters as cockroaches…” A mole approached them as they were engaged in increasingly idle conversation.
“Anvil, there’s something you should see…”
Only
“Huh? What, have you been watching my senior fight?”
“What? Were there monsters here too?”
“Here too?” The eyes of Shin-hyuk and Shin Eunah narrowed at the same time as the mole nodded weakly.
“While digging, they suddenly attacked from below. So the king…”
Kang Shin-hyuk listened to the words with an increasingly grim expression as Shin Eunah watched blankly. He wanted to laugh; it was so absurd, but he couldn’t even smile.
The Jijoo King’s funeral was held that afternoon.
