My Right Hand Is Too Strong Episode 82

Episode 82. Land of Eternal Day (3)

The daily routine after that wasn’t much different.

Wandering around the wasteland looking for Orcs.

When I found Orcs, I would take care of them.

When I got tired, I would find an oasis to rest briefly before moving on – I just kept repeating that kind of routine.

“Phew.”

Thud.

Landing on the ground, I caught my breath and looked ahead.

There, dozens of Orcs lay collapsed and growing cold on pools of red blood.

“Now this is getting manageable.”

Muttering with satisfaction, I glanced at the system window that appeared beside me.

[Remaining time: 28.3 hours]

Perhaps it was thanks to desperately hunting Orcs all this time.

Now I could face dozens of Orcs without allowing even a single effective hit.

“Since I don’t waste energy on regenerating, I don’t get tired either.”

To be honest, this was the biggest factor.

The momentary pain I felt and the stamina used to endure it had significantly decreased.

Thanks to that, I could fight for much longer periods.

“You’ve gotten quite good now.”

Thud.

Kargon, landing gracefully despite wearing heavy armor, spoke to me with amusement in his voice.

“I wouldn’t call it perfect, but now you have experience too.”

“It’s all thanks to you.”

“Nonsense. Following through with this was your effort and persistence.”

“I won’t deny that.”

I did almost die several times though.

How many times was it that my brain turned to mush and I had nosebleeds?

[Synchronization Rate 6.7%]

Seeing how much the synchronization rate had jumped compared to when I first entered the Tower, it definitely hadn’t been an easy journey.

“How many days has it been since you started following me around?”

“6 days.”

“Huh, such results in just 6 days. You really are talent suited to be a warrior.”

Hahaha!

Kargon threw back his head and laughed out loud.

Deactivating ‘Black Dragon’, I rolled my shoulders lightly and asked him.

“So, we’re moving right away, right?”

“No.”

“Huh?”

We’re not moving now?

I tilted my head and looked at Kargon.

“Thanks to your efforts, the Orcs in this area have been wiped out.”

“…Really?”

Those cockroach-like bastards?

This is quite surprising.

I thought there would be many more left since they kept popping up no matter how many I killed.

“Now all that’s left are the Orcs in the core.”

“The core, you mean…”

“The Orc Lord’s habitat.”

I pressed my lips tightly together.

Orc Lord.

According to Kargon, wasn’t that an enemy even he couldn’t defeat?

‘Even now with my increased synchronization rate, I can’t picture a future where I beat Kargon.’

If it’s an existence that even such a Kargon can’t defeat, just how strong could it be?

Honestly, I can’t even imagine.

“Aren’t we going to the core?”

“…We’re not going. If we went, none of us would survive.”

“…”

I asked just in case, but Kargon’s answer was firm.

Whenever I asked questions related to the Orc Lord, Kargon had given similar answers time and again.

I thought this time might be different, but hearing the same answer, I clicked my tongue softly and turned my head.

“Let’s go rest for today.”

“Alright.”

If there are no more Orcs to hunt, resting is the right choice.

I wasn’t particularly exhausted, but even today I’d been wandering around for nearly 10 hours.

“Then let’s go find an oasis-“

“I already found one.”

I chuckled and looked at Kargon.

Throughout my time traveling with him, I never stopped spreading mana thinly around my body.

As a result, just as he said, I could accurately sense Orcs and all sorts of other things even without seeing them.

Among those, I could also sense the energy of lush plants.

“As expected, it’s here.”

In this barren wasteland, there was only one place where plants existed.

I confidently stepped toward the direction where the oasis was located.

Kargon looked at the direction I was heading and let out a small exclamation of admiration.

“You really did sense it?”

“Would it be fake then?”

Arriving at the oasis like that, I skillfully found a tree and cut into its trunk.

Then I filled a container with the flowing water and drank it down refreshingly.

“Phew, now I feel alive.”

Though I’d somewhat adapted to Berdine’s environment where the sun never sets, I just can’t get used to the thirst no matter what.

Kargon, who had been watching me drink the water refreshingly, quietly asked.

“Are you going to sleep?”

“I should.”

Answering briefly, I glanced at Kargon.

About 6 days of traveling together.

During that time, Kargon had never once removed his armor.

Not just the armor, but not even his gloves or helmet.

“I’ll guard beside you again this time, so sleep peacefully.”

“Thanks as always.”

“Think nothing of it.”

Giving him a brief word of thanks, I closed my eyes and fell asleep.

* * *

“…”

Wheeze, wheeze.

As soon as he closed his eyes, steady breathing sounds began flowing out.

Kargon looked down at Han Mi-reo, who had fallen asleep like the dead, and muttered.

“Incredible.”

Just 6 days.

In such a remarkably short time, Han Mi-reo had become a perfect warrior.

When you teach one thing, they understand a hundred.

With a single battle, they lightly leap up ten steps.

Thanks to that, watching for 6 days straight wasn’t boring at all.

“Perhaps they have even greater talent than me.”

Muttering this, Kargon laughed aloud and turned his body.

Now it’s time to—

“Squeak.”

“….”

At the crying sound from behind, Kargon turned his head.

There was a small black snake looking up at him, flicking its tongue.

“It’s you again.”

“Squeak squeak.”

Kargon turned his head to look at the black snake as if familiar with it.

From the first day, when he left this place until now.

Toward the small friend that continuously made sounds as if seeing him off whenever he tried to leave, Kargon bent one knee and sat down.

“Today too, everything that happened until your master wakes up is a secret.”

“Squeak.”

A beast that can’t even speak wouldn’t have anything to reveal anyway.

Still, feeling as if he had heard an answer, Kargon chuckled softly and straightened his bent knee to stand up.

Just as the black snake flicked its tongue once.

“Squeak.”

The man in dark armor disappeared from the oasis.

And.

“…So sleeping for just 1 minute works too.”

Having slept for exactly 1 minute before waking up, I turned my head toward the familiar presence moving away.

* * *

At first, it was puzzling.

If he briefly went somewhere and came back, he could just say he went and came back.

Why would he lie about staying by my side?

Still, since it was the first time, I decided not to ask and let it pass.

However, the next day too.

And the day after that too.

When I fell asleep, Kargon would disappear for about 3 hours and only return when it was time for me to wake up.

At this point, my puzzlement gradually transformed into suspicion.

‘I know that Kargon is being very considerate of me.’

Still, being suspicious is an unavoidable instinct of the creature called human.

Since I too am a creature called human, I naturally couldn’t help but harbor such feelings.

“Let’s go right away.”

The distance had grown considerably.

If I don’t move now, I might not even be able to follow his trail.

Taking Cheo-ri along with my bag, I kicked off the ground in the direction Kargon had disappeared.

“….”

Whoooosh—

Hot wind brushing past my ears.

Having instantly left the oasis, I ran at high speed under the blazing sun.

‘He’s fast.’

At that tremendous speed, the distance keeps growing.

At this rate, I’d lose Kargon even if I ran for a hundred days.

“Kyuuuuk!”

“Hold on tight.”

I could feel Cheo-ri fluttering on my shoulder, but there was no choice.

Now was a moment when I needed to go faster rather than slow down.

As if Cheo-ri understood this too, she tightened her tail wrapped around my neck and pressed her body close against my neck.

Confirming that Cheo-ri was holding on tight, I quickly turned my body and clenched my fist.

[Black Dragon]

I just hadn’t done it because there was no need to use it until now.

The way to achieve the fastest speed with the strongest output was to directly use ‘Mist Flight’ with my right hand.

Gritting my teeth, I roughly threw my fist toward the ground.

[Mist – Mist Flight]

Snap.

I felt something tear in my shoulder.

At the same time, a massive shock was applied to my body.

While coughing up blood, I was shot forward at high speed by the enormous recoil.

“Now, it’s, similar, I guess.”

Doing this much made my speed similar to Kargon’s.

Spitting out the blood pooled in my mouth, I clenched my fist again.

[Remaining time: 28.2 hours]

[※Time has stopped due to distance from target.]

The distance between him and me still hadn’t closed.

* * *

I was able to catch up to him only after swinging my fist several more times.

No, to be precise, I shouldn’t say I caught up to him.

“This place is….”

With my right arm hanging limply, I looked down at my feet.

Deep.

So deep that I couldn’t see the bottom.

“It’s that ravine from back then.”

The very first time.

The ravine I fell into when I first set foot in the Tower of the Wilderness.

Kargon’s presence had disappeared here.

[Remaining time: 28.1 hours]

Seeing that the explanation about being far away had disappeared from the system showing remaining time, Kargon was definitely somewhere nearby.

“Why exactly did he come here?”

I hadn’t seen a single Orc on the way here.

I hadn’t detected a single one of those tasteless Moldy Fish.

Kargon had traveled a long distance for some reason and reached this ravine.

Looking around anywhere, Kargon’s figure wasn’t visible.

With a build over 2 meters, it was hard to imagine him hiding somewhere.

Then there was only one answer.

Below the ravine.

Kargon was there now.

“….”

My deliberation was brief.

Breathing out calmly, I lightly threw my body toward the ravine.

“To think I’m falling into this damn place twice.”

When I opened my eyes on the 1st floor and was immediately falling, how shocked I was.

Letting out a small laugh, I fixed my gaze downward.

Gradually, the surrounding scenery was covered in darkness.

The sultry heat slowly changed to warmth.

And that warmth eventually turned to coldness.

It’s cold.

A cool chill runs through my body, making it hard to believe that just above us lies the land of eternal daylight.

Exhaling a misty breath, I narrowed my eyes.

Thanks to the Black Dragon’s eyes, I could now see outlines in the darkness.

Those Black Dragon eyes began to make out shapes.

“Hup.”

Thud!

Just before crashing to the ground, I threw a punch to cushion the impact and safely landed at the bottom of the ravine.

After landing on the ground, I looked around.

This place was underground.

So deep that not even light could penetrate.

It should have been shrouded in darkness.

“…Light.”

In the distance.

Faint but unmistakable light reached my retina.

Without hesitation, I walked step by step toward the light.

With each step I took, the intensity of the light in my vision grew stronger.

Standing before the bright light, I stopped and quietly gazed ahead.

“…Huh? Who are you?”

A young child’s voice reached my ears.

Standing perfectly still, I looked at the young child before me.

Brown hair.

Brown eyes.

Up to this point, they looked like an ordinary child.

But.

“…An Orc?”

Green skin.

Sharp protruding tusks and pointed ears sticking upward.

My instincts were telling me that this child before me was an Orc.

“How can an Orc speak…”

But my reason wasn’t saying the same thing.

Every Orc I’d encountered so far had been nothing more than a monster incapable of communication.

The young Orc, who only came up to my waist, sucked their thumb while looking at my frozen form.

In that child’s eyes, I could see clear intelligence and self-awareness.

Could that really be an actual Orc?

“It is indeed an Orc.”

A voice came from behind me.

My body flinched as I quickly turned my head.

Kargon was walking step by step toward this place from the darkness.

“So you’ve come, friend.”

“…Kargon.”

“In the end, you had to see it.”

With a somewhat bitter voice.

Kargon muttered this and placed his hand on the helmet he was wearing.

“This is the first time I’m greeting you in this form.”

“…!”

The helmet was removed.

The moment I saw Kargon’s revealed face, I stopped even breathing.

It was only natural.

Kargon without his helmet.

His face was.

“My name is Kargon. As you can see, I am an Orc.”

The same as the Orcs I had seen countless times before.

It had a green tint to it.
