Episode 222
The Mutant Wyvern Elder falling with its tongue sticking out.
If left alone, it would fall below the cliff, so I used [Death Space].
The monster’s corpse swallowed by shadows.
Glint—
Something sparkled in the now empty space.
“Sir Isra.”
“Leave it to me.”
Sir Isra, who had landed on the ground, kicked off the earth once more.
It was good that he managed to catch the object just as it was falling below the cliff.
“Iron Head!”
“Didn’t you go too far?”
Sir Isra falling toward the cliff of the ceiling edge.
The distance had become quite far to retrieve him with Death Space.
[Mana Emission]
Sir Isra accelerated further.
His body shot like an arrow and embedded into the opposite cliff.
“Wow.”
Vision limited due to strong winds.
Not just the five senses.
Even mana detection had become dull because of the wind sweeping across the entire Gate.
To think he could throw his body like a bullet in such a situation.
“What the f….!”
Executive Sofia seemed quite shocked too.
She wasn’t that surprised when Sir Isra jumped in earlier though.
“Well, he could just take fall damage and come back.”
“Ah.”
This person isn’t ordinary either.
Come to think of it, she said she’d experienced fall damage herself.
Considering Sir Isra’s durability, he wouldn’t be completely destroyed.
Treating him after he fell and returned to the entrance would have been another method.
“Normally people don’t think like that, do they, bro?”
“It wasn’t my idea.”
Don’t treat me the same as that saint from Los Angeles.
Then, Sir Isra, hanging on the cliff, leaped once more.
He returned to the group’s side and respectfully presented the item he had obtained.
“A rare item indeed.”
“Good work.”
“Haha. It was nothing.”
An item dropped by the boss monster of an S-rank Gate.
Curious, I immediately checked its information.
[Crystal of Lightning Fury]
Grade: Epic
Category: Catalyst
Restriction: S-rank or higher Spirit Master
Durability: 100/100
A mineral concentrated with the power of a high-ranking spirit that went into a frenzy.
Can be used as a catalyst for lightning spirit contracts, but the summoned spirit will be inflicted with confusion status ailment.
“This must be the culprit that caused the mutation.”
Unlike ordinary wyverns, this boss monster wore lightning like armor.
The lightning wrapped around its body was so dense that the light was too strong, making only its form barely visible.
An item exclusive to Spirit Masters.
I wonder if there’s anyone among my familiars related to spirits.
Can’t be helped.
Since it’s an Epic item, it should fetch some money if sold.
“Masterrrrrr!!! That! That! Please give me that!!!!”
“Mage. Show some manners.”
“Ah. What are you saying. I’m being serious here! This is formal script!”
Excited Ingrid shook her body left and right wildly.
Please calm down a bit.
I don’t know where to look, you know?
“Giving it to you isn’t difficult. But tell me the reason first.”
“Do you remember, Master? The item used as a medium when you collected my soul.”
Was it the Empty Spirit’s Staff?
It was an item obtained from the [Domain of Challenge] Gate.
I had moved Ingrid, who was dwelling in the artifact ‘Talkative Sage’s Staff’ that Mr. Ezekiel Campbell used at the 12 Heroes weapon exhibition, to that staff.
“I’m a half-elf.”
“Ah. That’s right.”
“Though I became the Eclipse Witch because my magical talent was too outstanding.”
“Hmm.”
Sir Isra cleared his throat.
His displeasure was evident, but he kept his mouth shut, seemingly having nothing to say.
Seeing this, Ingrid snorted.
“Hmph.”
“What. Iron Head. Got something to say?”
“I don’t know what you mean.”
“Ingrid. So what’s the reason you need this item?”
“Hoho. Look at me losing my mind.”
Ingrid placed her hand near the Crystal of Lightning Fury.
Tremble!
The crystal, which showed no reaction when I was holding it, shook like a ringing mobile phone.
“Elves are a nature-friendly race.”
“Well, that’s a famous story.”
“Besides spirit arts, we also handle pure natural forces like spirit swordsmanship and archery.”
The explanation that followed was quite long.
Cutting to the chase, it meant she could refine the power of high-ranking spirits.
“Would it work for you to absorb that power?”
“I wouldn’t recommend it. My abilities depend on the level of the body crafted by Master’s necromancy.”
Hmm.
That’s true.
Ingrid in life handled SS-rank, no, even higher levels of mana.
She had reached a realm I couldn’t even look up to.
“What about Master taking the energy that the Girl refines?”
“No. I’ll pass.”
I even passed on Aruong’s heart, so why do you keep trying to feed me things?
“I’ll leave the refining to you. Let’s think about how to use it afterward.”
“I’ll definitely repay Master’s trust.”
What to use the Crystal of Lightning Fury for.
I couldn’t decide right away.
Still though.
The source of the wind that the Mutant Wyvern Elder had wrapped around its body, so if refined, it would be useful anywhere.
“Ehehehehe.”
How lucky!
[You have cleared Wind Valley.]
[Grade ― A]
[You are rewarded with 30 S-grade Magic Stones.]
A dragon race corpse that’s extremely hard to obtain.
A Mutant Boss Monster and an epic-grade catalyst.
And even Magic Stones.
Oh my.
I’m so full.
Burp!
* * *
After successfully completing the Gate conquest, I returned to Los Angeles.
“Roan. I didn’t give you a chance to show your skills.”
“It’s fine. Master.”
After entering the Gate, I also released [Janus’s Blessing].
I thought I might be able to see the power of the enhanced [Black Blessing].
But it ended with just applying a little blessing.
To think I couldn’t draw out all my power even with an S-grade Gate.
Have I gotten a bit stronger?
“Mister Park. I have a favor to ask.”
Why are you putting so much force into your words?
Not knowing what kind of favor it was made me feel burdened.
“Please tell me.”
I tried to act as nonchalant as possible when I spoke.
“How about having a sparring match with me after the conquest is over?”
An unexpected story came back.
“Huh?”
Lately, I’ve been answering questions with questions a lot.
But you know.
It’s a bit like that.
If you were in this situation, you’d have the same reaction, right?
A possessor of military power equivalent to SS-grade.
When a powerful Hunter called the Saint of Los Angeles suggests having a match.
It would be stranger to coolly answer “Ah, I see.”
Crash!
Oh my. What a surprise.
The war hammer literally turned the ground to powder without any exaggeration.
“Oh dear. I got excited in a way that’s not like me.”
Should I interpret this as “I’ll crush your head with my war hammer”?
“You’ve become much stronger than during your sparring with James.”
“The familiars are quite impressive.”
“I think I could learn a thing or two. Like that strange Magic Application. Changing trajectory in mid-air and such.”
Executive Sofia seemed quite impressed by this battle too.
I felt the same way.
The abilities of the Witch Coven with reinforced power exceeded imagination.
Watching Sir Isra’s mystical swordsmanship cutting through even tremendous gales, I could fully understand why he was called the Continental Greatest Sword.
The feeling of meeting a strong enemy and properly displaying one’s skills?
“Haha. Challenges are always welcome.”
“The girl is looking forward to it too.”
The Two Vassals didn’t hide their competitive spirit.
“With Schne around, you must feel reassured, right?”
“You thief. Don’t stick your dirty feet into a sacred duel.”
“Do you want to get crushed by that war hammer?”
“Hiiiek!”
This isn’t a situation for Zaugg to butt in.
A skill set specialized in one-hit kills.
Are you planning to kill Executive Sofia?
Moreover.
If the ambush failed, it was obvious it would end with jerky as Ingrid pointed out.
“Roan. What about you?”
“Ah. Could you leave out that priest friend?”
“Weren’t you curious?”
“I am curious about the holy spells that Undead use, but if he intervenes in the sparring, I think it’ll be difficult for me.”
For a moment.
I couldn’t understand what Executive Sofia had said.
It would be difficult?
What would?
So does that mean she thinks she’ll lose in the sparring?
Thanks to repeatedly blinking and overworking my sluggish brain, I finally understood.
Good heavens.
For the Saint of Los Angeles to back down before a sparring match.
“What are you so surprised about?”
“I heard you’re someone who never shows your back in a fight.”
“It’s just sparring. We’re not fighting for our lives, so we should go easy.”
Ah.
It would have been convincing if not for those eyes burning as if she wanted to have a match right now.
“Executive.”
A GGG Employee approached and whispered something.
The smile disappeared from Executive Sofia’s face, who had been speaking with a hint of playfulness just moments before.
“They say the Gate’s color has returned to normal.”
“…I offer my condolences for the deceased.”
“I have things to handle. An employee will guide you.”
Executive Sofia, who had been moving hurriedly after turning around, suddenly whipped her head back.
“Get plenty of rest. You need to manage your condition.”
“Don’t worry.”
I have no intention of being reckless by conquering additional Gates in Distant Land.
I don’t even know where the Gate was created.
“The mana concentration has risen even more after the Hunter team that entered this time was wiped out.”
“That’s rather bad news.”
“It’s approaching the critical point. I hope you’ll tackle the conquest in perfect condition.”
After Executive Sofia left the scene.
“Please come this way.”
I headed to the hotel guided by the GGG Employee.
“It’s a 5-star hotel!”
“My goodness. To think the day would come when I’d stay at a 5-star hotel.”
“U-uh, w-wasn’t 5-star the standard originally?”
At Emilia’s comment, everyone on the Support Team widened their eyes.
She’s a disciple of the 12 Heroes, after all.
That could be the case.
I’m boarding at Yeon-du’s house because I blew all my allowance on my hobbies.
“We can do sightseeing after we finish conquering tomorrow, so everyone rest up.”
“Yes. You should get plenty of rest too, hyung.”
I entered my private room and laid the subspace carrier on the floor.
“Are you not resting for tomorrow?”
“Ah. I’m just going to have a taste.”
When conquering a Gate, I can’t enter the Death Domain.
Since they’re both treated as subspaces, there’s a collision when I try to enter.
I’ve seen plenty of wyvern corpses but never actually analyzed them.
Given the environment of Wind Valley.
I didn’t have time to take out and analyze the monster corpses I collected.
“I can at least see what kind of abilities they possess. Right?”
“Hmmmm.”
Are you doing this because you don’t trust me?!
“To be honest, you’re not trustworthy.”
“Does chivalry say not to trust your lord?”
“It’s not just once or twice that you’ve stayed up all night after saying you’d just take a quick look at one thing.”
Ack!
Fact violence, it hurts!
“Please forgive Iron Head’s rudeness, Master.”
Ingrid.
I’m glad you’re at least taking my side.
“But his words do have merit, so how about resting today?”
Kek.
Don’t throw me a curveball!
“…I’ll really just analyze and that’s it.”
[Entering Death Domain.]
The wyvern corpses placed in the Pit of Malice.
I stuffed them to maximum capacity and let them age.
“Ehehe. Perfect.”
30 corpses finished aging with spiritual power.
The remaining wyvern corpses will also finish aging if I wait just a little longer.
I’m in a good mood?
While looking at the wyvern corpses with pleased eyes.
“I wonder if these guys will react too?”
I summoned the three Reinforced Dracos in front of the Pit of Malice.
“Grrr!”
The guys panting with their tongues hanging out.
They don’t even glance at the wyvern corpses.
Hmm.
I guess expecting interaction was too much to hope for.
[The Sub-Dragon Heart stored in Death Domain is reacting to the Reinforced Dracos and wyvern corpses.]
[You can fuse the three Reinforced Dracos with the Sub-Dragon Heart.]
[Would you like to fuse?]
