Chapter 150: Chapter 149. What We Can Do (7)

Chapter 149. What We Can Do (7)

For the past month, my companions had joined hands to clear all sorts of Event Dungeons. Although those dungeons were below A rank, I didn’t feel that the time was wasted. They had gotten more accustomed to fighting with each other.

“Ha!”

With a spirited shout, father thrust his spear forward. A chunk of a cyclops’ leg blew up, making it fall on top of two of its friends. Of course, incapacitating the two of them didn’t do much to help the current situation. Ever since a while ago, piles of cyclopes were coming at us.

“Just one of them is annoying enough. Where are they all coming from?”

“It’s all thanks to our cute leader. They must have realized that they have no chance of winning unless they all joined forces.”

Hwaya leisurely retorted, reaching her hand out and burning the cyclopes in that direction. Sumire and Shuna were blocking the cyclopes from the front, while Hwaya burned them with long-ranged attacks. As for us close-ranged attackers, we ran around killing incoming cyclopes on our own. One thing for sure, we had too many close-ranged attackers compared to the one long-ranged attacker we had.

“Shin-nim, help the right side!”

“Got it.”

Responding to Sumire’s call, I kicked off the ground, while a whirlpool surged around my spear using Peruta Circuit. The two cyclopes attacking Sumire were sent flying by the spear I thrust out.

“Plene!”

“Lalala~!”

When five new cyclopes appeared, Plene began to sing energetically. Every time she sang with a delightful expression, it looked like strength were leaving the cyclopes’ bodies.

“Kuk, I’m losing strength…”

“Damn… it…”

The S rankers, who weren’t considered to be in our party, were also affected, but it was fine since they didn’t need to fight. Without caring about them, I continued hunting.

“Lotte!”

[I know!]

As I decided to fight with the party members on the ground, Lotte and I were moving separately. Lotte harassed the cyclopes while freely flying in the sky. The black flames she breathed out could heavily injure them, and even cast curses.

[Kuaaaa! A bird with wings keeps blocking us!] [That bird is a harmful bird!]

The cyclopes tried to attack Lotte, but without any long-ranged attacks, it was impossible. As Lotte also knew this, she jumped in and out, drawing as much of their aggro as possible. Meanwhile, we used the openings she created to attack them.

“Eit! Eit! Die!”

Ye-Eun made cute shouts as she tenaciously focused on the cyclopes weak points. In her hands were one black and one white pair of daggers, the reward she got from the Flame Drake raid. Her shouts and expression didn’t match at all, so I wished she’d stop.

“What are we doing with their corpses?”

Hwaya asked, as she endlessly generated flames to burn the cyclopes. She gave me a small wink. Although we already talked about it, it seemed she said it for the S rankers to hear. I also replied casually.

“We’ll sell them. I’m sure many people will want S+ rank monster corpses. Ah, we’ll keep a few as souvenir… I wonder if they taste any good.”

[Ku, Kuooooooo!] [T-The Hero is scary!]

After hundreds of cyclopes died, the situation changed, as black cyclopes began to appear. These cyclopes were bigger than the normal ones and were holding gigantic clubs in their hands. Since Hwaya’s flames couldn’t easily burn them, it seemed they also had higher resistance to elements.

“The boss is going to appear soon, Hwaya!”

“If you’re tired, fall back to the defense line and rest until the boss comes!”

Hwaya shouted in response to my words and shot out white flames at all sides. It was a powerful attack, which made all of the cyclopes step back. Walker immediately ran to the back. It seemed father was tired from the constant fighting, as he also ran back after Walker.

“Huk huk, damn it, my attacks are barely effective…!”

[Walker, if you keep it up, you’ll get stronger from the stat bonuses.]

“If you didn’t force me into being your sister’s bodyguard, I would have been much stronger right now!”

“Walker, you have to seize the opportunity when it arrives!”

“Like I said, you prevented me from doing that!”

Although I wanted to talk to him in the guild communication channel, it seemed Walker didn’t want to. It probably didn’t matter, since the S rankers were too focused on what was happening in front of them that they didn’t pay attention to our conversation. I became seriously sorry for Walker. I hoped to reward him soon!

Chatting with Walker was fun, but it was about time to clean up the battlefield and prepare for the boss. First, I took out a highest-grade Mana Potion and put it in my mouth. I fixed my grip on my spear, bending down and leaping up.

“Shuna, Sumire! Get back!”

“Yes!”

“Shin-nim!?”

After instantly jumping over 10 meters in the air, I pulled my spear back and activated Peruta Circuit to its limit. A five-colored light then began to gather in my spear.

[Kyak! One-eyed giants!] [Are you teaching them a lesson? Prince-nim, are you teaching them a lesson?] [I can ride this! Strangely, I’m fine!] [Everyone come, it’s a special spin spin!]

Countless elementals caused the whirlpool enveloping Gluttony Spear to take a rainbow hue. In the short moment where I stayed in the air, I thrust my spear toward the incoming cyclopes and shouted.

“Die!”

‘Damn, I wonder when I’m going to fix my habit of shouting.’

[Critical Hit!]

From the sky to the ground, a violent elemental storm raged. The black cyclopes in the front were quickly swept through, as were the cyclopes behind them. Although not all of them were dead, they were incapacitated.

“Hwaya, let’s clean up!”

“Y-Yeah!”

Hwaya, who was blankly staring at me for a moment, snapped out of her daze and began to quickly kill the cyclopes that managed to survive. She simply threw her white flames into their throat. If there was no response, they were dead. Otherwise, they choked on it and died. It was quite convenient.

After landing, I drank the Mana Potion I put in my mouth. After Elemental Tempest ended, countless elementals scattered, giving me blessings and blowing me kisses. I couldn’t help but smile. I had heard that I would be able to see the elementals I wasn’t connected to as I grew as an Elementalist. It seemed that was true. Although they were still a bit hazy, I could somewhat recognize them.

“Y-Yeon Hwawoo-ssi, what ability was that? Wasn’t your ability lightning?”

“You don’t really think I’ll tell you that, right?”

I responded to the female ranker’s question and gave her a wink. Then, I threw away the empty potion bottle. Although Elemental Tempest took 50% of my mana, if I prepared a potion beforehand and drank it in time, most of my mana would be restored by the time I was done! Since I could reduce the potion’s cooldown time, it was quite smart.

“What an enviable ability. Mm….!”

“Shockwaves are good too.”

“That’s enough chattering. Get ready.”

Hwaya shouted acutely. Since we would be going up against a S+ rank dungeon boss, it was understandable. Plus, she was likely preparing for the potential Event Raid as well.

[Shin, I’ll use Blessing again.] [Yeah. Thanks, Ludia.]

“Plene, get ready to sing again.”

“Okay!”

Ludia stuck her staff into the ground and began to chant a holy scripture with a silvery voice. The fatigue that had unknowingly built up disappeared and my body brimmed with strength. It was truly mysterious. Even after her world fell and Ludia moved to Earth, she still maintained the power of the god she believed in. Although I didn’t think too deeply, I thought about the existences called gods once again.

“The boss is probably going to be a cyclops. After Lotte breathes her black flame to decrease its resistance, we’ll each use our strongest attack. The boss fight will start from there.”

“Got it.”

“Understood.”

“The cyclopes’ boss… I can’t even imagine what it would be.”

The party members began to prepare their attacks. Father’s spear was vibrating since a while ago. I suspected that it was the new path of martial arts he created.

Then, it finally appeared, seemingly out of nowhere. It just suddenly appeared in front of our eyes.

[Guoooooooo!]

It was over 10 meters tall, and its red skin and ghastly eyes exuded an oppressive aura. As if just two arms weren’t enough, it had an additional two for a total of four. It held a club in each hand. At the same time, Gluttony Spear began to vibrate. Eh? Wait, could it be…? As a thought crossed my mind, it opened its mouth. Since it probably wasn’t going to breathe flames, it was probably going to shout.

[Black Curse Breath!]

What a cool name!

Before it attempted to fear the entire party, Lotte’s poured black flames on it. The word ‘pour’ was extremely suitable for her attack. Like tar, her flames stuck to its body, unpleasantly squirming around and burning its body. If she wasn’t on our side, I would have been frightened out of my wits.

[Guooooook!] [It won’t last long. It’ll reduce its attack power, movement speed, and resistance to everything.] [Why didn’t you use that against the drake?] [I couldn’t back then. I acquired it after being with Hero… Mm.]

It seemed like Lotte was embarrassed, but I didn’t have the time to think about that right now. Hwaya was the first one to attack. Her flames were so white that they could be mistaken as light.

“Die!”

Was that a universal shout!? Her flames struck the cyclops’ chest, scorching it until its bones could be seen. Even more shocking was the fact that Lotte’s tar was preventing it from regenerating. Father’s spear attack then struck the same place. An explosion boomed and it trembled from the shock, coughing out a large amount of a blood. Father dodged its club swing and fell back, all the while shooting a condensed shockwave aura.

“Die!”

“Really! It just sounds lame!”

We don’t need to all say the same thing!

“Eit, die!”

“Kuk!”

“Huu… Spear Charge!”

“I, I’m going too! Shield Rush!”

The other members exploded out with their attacks. The cyclops let out an enraged scream and tried to swing its clubs at them. Lotte’s tar was slowly losing its effectiveness.

“O power of the earth, stop the sword of the mobs!”

[Guoook!]

Ludia’s silvery chant rang out, and the cyclops’ clubs halted in midair. Its wounded chest was wide open.

“Now!”

Ludia shouted. Her staff was radiating incandescence.

I aimed my spear at its chest. I had long since finished turning it into a white lightning bolt. The chest wound burned by Hwaya and dug by father! I could even see its beating heart.

“Dieeeee!”

“E-Embarrassing…”

Almost as if my spear was being sucked in, it pierced its chest with a huge explosion of aura. The whirlpool of aura devoured its regenerative power and successfully blew up its heart.
