Only I Have Two Towers Episode 203

 

Ship Deck Battle

 

Ah, refreshing.

 

That’s my brief impression after jumping into the minus 2-degree sea.

 

I extended my Eternal Cold Iron and tied it to the exploration ship’s anchor.

 

Can’t become lost in the middle of the Icy Sea.

 

‘They must think I’m crazy.’

 

If I had leisure time, I would have jumped from somewhere out of sight.

 

But since I suddenly felt it, my heart became urgent.

 

I didn’t know when this energy would disappear.

 

‘Well then.’

 

I closed my eyes and focused on my senses.

 

After a moment, tinnitus reached my ears.

 

Through my skin, I could feel the flow of the sea.

 

Nothing particular was detected yet.

 

But I took my time and paid attention to the flow of water.

 

Swoosh.

 

A strange vibration hitting my body.

 

Once, twice, three times.

 

It kept hitting at regular intervals.

 

And not long after.

 

Thump!

 

A clearer vibration was transmitted.

 

I opened my closed eyes.

 

The dark sea where I couldn’t see an inch ahead without the moon.

 

Yet it seemed visible.

 

The heartbeat of a massive existence pushing through the water.

 

A smile formed on my lips.

 

What led me to this place was one of the black dragon’s countless scales.

 

As such, I wasn’t one hundred percent certain I could obtain Drakan’s claws.

 

It might be futile, but what’s here could be another scale.

 

But the moment I felt this heartbeat, I was certain.

 

It’s here.

 

The black dragon.

 

‘So that’s why the sea dried up.’

 

The sea creatures that vanished like a lie.

 

Since they originally lived in the sea, they would have noticed immediately.

 

That something impossible was not far away.

 

And that it had already awakened.

 

So they fled.

 

To survive.

 

‘They must have already found it.’

 

The reason the Government of Iceland erased all traces related to the dried-up sea.

 

They discovered it too late.

 

The existence called a dragon that only appeared in myths and legends.

 

As before the awakening, Iceland’s current defense capabilities aren’t strong.

 

More precisely, they’re very weak.

 

135th out of 145 countries.

 

Thanks to that, they’re pushed around by various countries like the United Kingdom, United States, Russia, France, etc.

 

Being such an Iceland, their eyes would have sparkled the moment they discovered the dragon.

 

Wondering if this could possibly turn the tables.

 

‘Hmm.’

 

I pressed my forehead while dangling from the exploration ship.

 

I’m not trying to look down on Iceland.

 

However, it was likely excessive greed.

 

Iceland’s low ranking means their Player forces are also weaker compared to other countries, aside from military power.

 

Therefore, they won’t be able to catch it. With very high probability.

 

It was a judgment I could make having seen that overwhelming majesty in the Mythic Tower.

 

‘Okay.’

 

I quickly finished establishing my strategy.

 

If Iceland can catch it?

 

I’ll morally just steal the claws.

 

But if they can’t catch it and overreach?

 

It’s mine. All of it.

 

This was also for Iceland’s sake.

 

If they carelessly awaken it and can’t catch it, all of Iceland will become like the city I saw in the Mythic Tower.

 

‘Excellent.’

 

With a satisfied face, I nodded briefly.

 

I looked at the exploration ship carrying me along as I dangled.

 

‘No affection at all.’

 

I thought they’d at least slow down and pretend to search.

 

Indeed, it’s lonely when you leave home.

 

I pulled on the Eternal Cold Iron and headed toward the ship.

 

Let’s hurry up.

 

Before I’m declared dead.

 

Ilulissat, one of Greenland’s icebergs.

 

Though it hasn’t been long since it broke off from the glacier, it’s famous for its overwhelmingly large size.

 

And dozens of ships filling the surrounding area.

 

National Defense University warships flying Iceland’s flag.

 

One warship approached Ilulissat.

 

The iceberg where various construction machinery like drill machines, excavators, and forklifts constantly moved about.

 

Admiral Robion of the National Defense University, who was staring at the iceberg, opened his mouth.

 

“What’s the progress?”

 

“Over 80%. Personnel are working in shifts and related ability Players are also helping.”

 

Adjutant Yokla held out a tablet.

 

A hologram made based on the Ilulissat iceberg.

 

When first discovered, the position was too deep to reach.

 

But now they were almost there.

 

Just a little more and they could reach it.

 

“Hurry more. We can’t drag out time forever.”

 

Robion checked the message that just arrived.

 

# All personnel boarded exploration ship. Moving to Greenland.

 

He gritted his teeth.

 

Hyena bastards.

 

Despite desperately blocking them, they caught the scent somewhere and flocked over.

 

“Fortunately, no countries seem to have noticed.”

 

Robion nodded.

 

Fortunately in misfortune, those guys had no clue.

 

About what was sleeping in this Ilulissat iceberg.

 

“Let’s move.”

 

“Yes.”

 

Robion and Yokla, equipped with specialized suits, moved toward the temporary elevator.

 

The elevator that had reached the sea surface through clean and transparent ice.

 

Thoom!

 

The elevator stopped with a dull sound.

 

And it revealed itself before the two men.

 

An ancient life form sleeping while trapped within the ice.

 

A massive size that couldn’t be taken in at a single glance.

 

The corners of Robion’s mouth rose long.

 

He was certain.

 

That this life form would explosively elevate Iceland’s status.

 

“Contact came from the President’s Residence last night. They asked if we still haven’t found the exact cause. They say the damage to coastal cities like Reykjavik is severe.”

 

“Tell them to wait a little longer. Is that crap important right now?”

 

Robion clicked his tongue.

 

The President and the cowards at the residence were squawking like parrots.

 

Demanding they immediately eliminate the cause and restore what had disappeared from the sea.

 

This was why he hadn’t reported the discovery of this life form.

 

“It must be because they’re comfortable and well-fed. The President and his associates can’t see the big picture.”

 

This is a golden opportunity for Iceland.

 

A chance to shatter their pathetic 135th ranking and become a powerful nation in one stroke.

 

They absolutely cannot let it slip away.

 

“What about the mental manipulation equipment and taming-related players? Are there enough?”

 

“Yes. We confirmed they were consumed in 1 second by Tower of Despair boss-level creatures. We’ll pour more numbers into this life form, so even considering synchronization rates, it should be sufficient.”

 

“Good. Let’s start tomorrow right away.”

 

“Understood. I’ll prepare. Should we not take any separate measures regarding the expedition ship?”

 

“Leave them be. Let them fight among themselves. And since they’ve entered the Greenland Sea, there’s no need to worry further. There’s no way those guys will reach this iceberg.”

 

Robion burst into laughter as if it were pathetic.

 

Those guys are new to this sea.

 

So they couldn’t even imagine.

 

That the entire sea was a massive maze made of glaciers and icebergs.

 

The expedition ship’s restaurant.

 

The people gathered at the railing turned their heads.

 

Roche, still sitting and eating her meal.

 

“Isn’t that your boyfriend? He jumped off, didn’t he?”

 

“What did you say to make him jump off in the middle of eating?”

 

Roche put down her fork and smiled.

 

“Instead of minding other people’s love affairs, how about massaging that friend’s wrist? He looks like he’s crying.”

 

“What?”

 

The man with the broken wrist and his group approached the table.

 

People from other tables also began watching the situation.

 

“Are they French guys?”

 

“They’re somewhat famous, but that woman picked the wrong fight.”

 

The French Hunters who stopped walking burst into hollow laughter.

 

Looking closer, it was even more ridiculous.

 

A frail body that looked like it would just break with a light touch.

 

What was she relying on to act like this?

 

“Shouldn’t you be more careful with that mouth? You don’t even have a boyfriend to protect you.”

 

Roche slowly wiped her mouth and stood up.

 

Then she looked around.

 

“How about it? Since it’s come to this, let’s decide now.”

 

The corners of Roche’s mouth rose.

 

“You weren’t planning to share nicely anyway. That’s why you came armed to the teeth. Right?”

 

Silence flowed across the ship deck.

 

She was right.

 

They never had any intention of researching anything from the start.

 

They didn’t even know what was in this sea.

 

The instructions they received were to bring back whatever it was, by any means necessary.

 

For this purpose, mercenaries not affiliated with national Hunter Bureaus, officially unknown, were deployed.

 

Because it was obvious this would become a dirty fight.

 

A struggle for supremacy taking place in the vast ocean filled with icebergs on all sides.

 

“Well, the young lady is quite bold all by herself.”

 

British mercenaries nearby also stood up.

 

Then they equipped their weapons.

 

“Is it because America is backing you? But will that be okay? That kind of backing won’t protect you on this sea. Well, anyway, I agree with this lady’s words. It’s tiring to keep having psychological warfare while traveling. Let’s decide the hierarchy first and then go. If someone dies, it can’t be helped.”

 

“The old man spoke well for once. I was getting restless anyway.”

 

People from other locations also heard the commotion and appeared one by one.

 

Intending to see it through to the end.

 

Roche trembled slightly and rubbed her arms.

 

With her tongue, she licked her lips.

 

She likes it. No, she loves it.

 

This hair-trigger tension felt right before battle.

 

And.

 

Slash!

 

She enjoys it.

 

“Kyaaaaaaah!!”

 

The role of lighting the fuse.

 

The French Hunter’s wrist shot up.

 

Fresh blood scattering through the air.

 

A clear signal for the start of war.

 

From all directions, various awakening abilities and weapons were wielded.

 

“Kill this bitch!!”

 

The French mercenaries who rushed in unison swung their weapons.

 

Weapons that pierced into Roche’s upper body without a chance to dodge.

 

Swooosh…!

 

Roche’s figure scattered into dark blue mist.

 

And the moment they realized this, large scissors came down from behind.

 

Two hunters barely reacted and created distance.

 

“!!!”

 

Their eyes widened.

 

The fate of those who couldn’t react was terrible.

 

Bodies that scattered blood in all directions before collapsing helplessly.

 

“Hey hey hey, this is cheating.”

 

An old man not far away frowned.

 

Then he distanced himself as much as possible from Roche and the French mercenaries.

 

He had heard of it before.

 

Dark blue mist and scissors larger than one’s body.

 

That’s the one.

 

“Everyone attention!!!”

 

The old man unleashed his ability.

 

A voice that spread out resoundingly.

 

As attention focused on him, the Old Man pointed at Roche.

 

“Russian Special Forces Valkytch.”

 

“What?”

 

“As expected…!”

 

The gazes that had been directed at the Old Man all shifted to Roche at once.

 

It was a name that couldn’t be unknown in the back world.

 

A demon that brought war, death, and misfortune wherever she went.

 

“How about we start the hierarchy sorting by killing that demon bitch first? A national special forces unit is cheating.”

 

“Agreed.”

 

“I agree too.”

 

All personnel changed direction.

 

Dozens of weapons and abilities aimed at Roche.

 

Roche, who had been watching this, slowly raised her hand.

 

Her lips were full of laughter.

 

“I agree too.”

 

“Kill her!!”

 

While the personnel clashed once again on the ship deck.

 

Swoosh!

 

A hand emerged from the sea.
