Chapter 65
Whish—!
Baek Seon-u summoned his weapon and abruptly drew his bowstring toward the sky, releasing a single arrow.
Thump-thump-thump-thump!
In the blink of an eye, that one arrow vanished into the heavens only to multiply into dozens, cascading down toward the ground.
It was as though rain made of arrows had begun to fall on just that one stretch of land.
Soon after, they halted in mid-air, suspended above the ground, and all but one promptly vanished from sight.
“Ha-ryeong, just in case—grab a weapon.”
Then Baek Seon-u deployed the same technique once more and issued the instruction in an even tone. In the middle of this, I caught what seemed like an oddly suspicious remark, but I simply shook my head a couple of times to brush it off and summoned my sword.
—Im Ji-an, keep doing what you’re doing. Seo Do-hyeok, get ready with support damage.
The moment those words ended, a warm current seemed to flow through my body, and my senses sharpened slightly more than before.
‘So this is the importance of training…?’
If it hadn’t been for that, I wouldn’t have even known what Im Ji-an’s buff ability was, and I might not have downed that potion until today.
Standing at the very back and doing nothing but marveling until now, I stepped closer, positioning myself behind Seo Do-hyeok’s arm to secure a better view.
And in that instant, an intensely frigid cold began to emanate from all around.
‘Is it coming from both directions?’
The floor was already rough enough, and now a series of hard somethings were striking against it with a loud, jarring sound.
[ The Guardian of Tae-won is estimated to be at least B+ Rank. While it’s not entirely to my liking, I acknowledge the keen judgment of the other Awakener. ]
At that rank, well—with two S-Class fighters on our side, it should be a breeze.
—Eleven o’clock, one o’clock direction. Five each.
……
—Healer damage.
Then, through the in-ear communication, Baek Seon-u’s brief command came through loud and clear.
At the same moment, the ice-attribute spear that Seo Do-hyeok had manifested split cleanly in both directions and shot forward, piercing the bodies of the monsters with perfect precision—not a single one slipping through.
They could advance no further and were instantly frozen solid, emanating an astonishing cold so intense it was vivid to the eye.
‘It’s something new every time I see it.’
Then my head tilted to one side.
‘If those are appearing, then this must be the Desert.’
Massive scorpions, their bodies covered by diamond-like white crystals jutting upward over their pincers and tail sections.
Yet those forms did not last long.
Baek Seon-u drew his bowstring toward the sky once again.
Soon dozens of arrows embedded themselves fiercely across the ice, followed by a series of sharp cracking sounds. Then, with a cutting explosive noise, shards erupted to fill the space ahead.
“…It shouldn’t be this beautiful.”
At a single remark that had escaped Im Ji-an’s lips like a whispered thought, I found myself in complete agreement.
The small fragments of ice scattered through the air glittered in white, as though boasting their own radiance like stars themselves.
Yet perhaps due to the slightly humid temperature, the fragments soon vanished almost as a pity.
“What do you mean by that.”
Standing near enough that his nose would have touched hers, Seo Do-hyeok recited the words flatly, as if answering her.
‘Or was he trying to let me hear?’
With the in-ear link connected, even casual remarks would be audible to everyone.
In that moment, my gaze shifted briefly to Seo Do-hyeok’s profile. But he didn’t give me even that luxury, stepping forward and moving ahead without pause.
‘At least he let loose at the end, which is fortunate.’
When I recalled the day Seo Do-hyeok and I sparred—or rather, when he sparred against me in a one-sided match—I gave a weak shake of my head.
Honestly, I had no desire to repeat any of what I’d endured during that entire day.
We continued forward, and from then on we dispatched dozens of scorpions that appeared from different directions.
From the pattern of those remaining unseen as we passed, then manifesting after Baek Seon-u’s opening strike, they seemed to be monsters that hid themselves in an invisible state by default.
In other words, if we simply passed by without attacking, we wouldn’t be ambushed, nor would there be any reason to engage them in the first place.
[ The Arbiter of Truth reaches into the dessert bag that the Guardian of Tae-won is holding and remarks that they don’t look like they’ve boarded a one-way ticket to hell. ]
[ The Guardian of Tae-won is startled, lifting the hand holding the bag abruptly, and mutters that it’s you who’s missing dignity, not them. ]
[ The Arbiter of Truth grumbles that they’re getting in a huff over just having one thing snatched away, rummages through a box at their feet, and pulls something out. ]
[ The Guardian of Tae-won, keeping their distance, glances sidelong at what’s in the Arbiter of Truth’s hand, then gradually edges closer to sit down. ]
Honestly, under normal circumstances I’d have groaned and told them to cut it out, but right now I was entertained watching the quarrel between the two Constellations.
Because…
—Im Ji-an, amplification cut.
—Wait, a bit slower—
—Four at twelve o’clock direction. Healer damage.
I only listened to Baek Seon-u’s clipped instructions and the occasional grumbles from Im Ji-an’s voice, while my mouth and hands had nothing whatsoever to do.
Which is to say, with those two robust men in peak condition unleashing waves of attacks front and back, the scorpions left not even bone dust behind—they vanished cleanly—and I had nothing left to do.
‘And besides, their coordination is pretty good, isn’t it?’
Was I actually benefiting from the autonomous training, unexpected as it was?
Ah, at times like this I wish I could snatch away the Guardian’s dessert too.
‘This isn’t… what I wanted.’
Even now, standing at the very back, I had no opening to step in.
Baek Seon-u had told me to draw the sword, so I held it in my hand, but the fact that it was being used as a walking staff was truly lamentable.
‘Is the Guardian upset with me?’
[The Guardian of Tae-won placed a fresh dessert in his mouth, smiled, and then waved his hand dismissively, signaling that he was fine and I shouldn’t worry at all.]
……Perhaps the Arbiter of Truth is skilled not only at coaxing and comforting people, but also Constellations.
In any case, as we continued walking in silence, the scorpions seemed to have exhausted their supply—none appeared anymore.
Instead, when we reached a certain part of the desert, a massive temple that appeared to be made of bone fragments came into view.
That is to say, it was no longer an intact structure but rather existed in a form where only the skeletal framework remained, and wind whistled through the gaps with a solemn, resonant drone.
The moment Baek Seon-u stepped onto a low stone step at the entrance, the ground trembled and a deafening sound erupted.
“Watch your step.”
And after such a long time, I heard Seo Do-hyeok’s low voice nearby as well.
‘Why does that feel welcome?’
With that thought, I tilted my head back slightly to look at the back of his dark head.
Perhaps because all I’d heard through my earpiece were repeated instructions to spot enemy positions and deal damage, Seo Do-hyeok’s voice felt oddly different, though it lasted only a moment.
Boom—crack!
Then the sound erupted once more, and something rose up from the ground all around the temple at once.
‘Really, nothing but bones.’
Not a metaphor—they were actual skulls with only bone remaining, just like the temple before us.
—Ugh, how gross. They’re about my height.
Hearing Im Ji-an’s comment, spoken with a hint of levity, I quickly scanned those things as they positioned themselves with creaks and groans.
B-Class entities carrying crossbows and longswords.
It seemed the concept was soldiers who had died guarding the temple.
But the problem was that as time went on, everything unfolded almost identically to the previous situation.
Of course, a few skulls had tried to ambush me from behind, but even that was covered by Seo Do-hyeok’s support damage.
‘No, what are both of them thinking?’
I absently fussed with my bangs in silent frustration.
For some reason, it seemed like they were deliberately not giving me a chance to attack.
‘Is this some kind of strategy?’
If so, shouldn’t they have informed me beforehand?
After all, this training in the Training Grounds would only end once we defeated the boss.
In any case, with two people I still couldn’t figure out, my head only grew more tangled.
“Are you doing okay, Ha-ryeong?”
Then Im Ji-an, who had posed the question, peeked her head to the side and turned to look at me. Perhaps she was worried because I hadn’t made any big moves or said much.
Feeling a sudden surge of gratitude, I lifted the corners of my mouth and opened my lips.
“Yes, I’m doing so well it’s becoming a problem.”
Seeing my sincere expression, Im Ji-an smiled faintly as well and turned her gaze back forward.
‘To be honest, it is comfortable.’
This is what it feels like to enjoy a smooth ride in a proper S-Class team.
But if we’re in this space, then everything would be recorded just like before, and it was obvious that I would look like a burden, not lifting a finger.
That would make correcting the formation earlier completely pointless.
Yet I couldn’t exactly complain and ask them to give me orders during the training.
‘Ugh, what am I supposed to do?’
In the end, I only grumbled inwardly and continued to follow their lead.
How much longer did we walk? By the time I was growing bored, it happened.
—Wow, that’s incredible.
A sight remarkable enough to draw an exclamation even from Baek Seon-u, who had been nothing but composed, came into view.
C-Class, yet all the S-Class Awakeners are obsessed with me
