Chapter 193 – [11Th Round] Warming Phenomenon
Chapter 193 – [11th Round] Warming Phenomenon
I was quite looking forward to it. In the Western Continent, the Lord served tasteless fly dishes and made the heroes lose their tempers, but things would have been fine in other continents.
So what’s the point of this?
Boris, the spirit summoned by my call, was bare naked, not wearing a single thread. Normally, I summoned her wearing clothes made by grinding my level, but today, I specially removed her clothes for the heroes who wanted to see into the women’s bath. As expected, the response was tremendous.
“Hieek?!”
“Her skills?!”
“Oh! Oh My God.”
Rather than surprised by Boris’s perfect body, they were more surprised to see her abilities. A surprise that soon turned to fear.
Flutter-
The feathers of her wide-spread wings shot out in all directions. It would be nice to be able to block it with superhuman reflexes, but unfortunately, the heroes and their companions had no means to block the feathers imbued with the Heart Sword effect of Swordsmanship ZZZ. Especially not when the Mind Spirit was on my side.
“Eargh?!”
“Kugh?!”
“Aargh!?”
Feathers were embedded in the bodies of each hero staying in the men’s bath. The elves managing the hot spring ran away in a hurry, and the targeted heroes floated on top of the hot tub like dead fishes. It didn’t matter to me whether they charged into the women’s bath or whatever they wanted.
However…
“I can’t handle how meddlesome this bastard is.”
The occupational disease was a problem. The sense of justice of the MAX-Class hero who couldn’t control himself while looking at the existence of evil could not standstill. Meddling like this would only waste my time. It was just self-satisfaction with no material benefit to me. I understood that fact with my head, but my body was the problem. My blood boiled, unable to stand the injustice.
“Drug hero, why don’t you honestly say that you killed them just because you don’t like how your friends are playing around?”
The First Spirit was acting cheeky in the male bath filled with cries and screams.
“What would a spirit who doesn’t believe that justice still exists in the world know?”
This was a holy purification, a noble task to lead rebellious souls to reincarnation. The same was true of the protagonists of many fantasy novels that I read as a regular citizen. Pathetic humans who commit suicide or were hit by trucks without adapting to society act as if they had become completely different people after reincarnation.
That was what I was trying to do now.
“May you be a great hero when you are born again. Mollan.”
I prayed in the hot tub red with their blood.
No one knew yet that I was the culprit. People were also in a rush to run away, but it was because Boris’s ability was overwhelmingly higher than mine. In the Fantasy Continent, there was no case where the absolute power obeyed the orders of the weak. The handsome men, who saw the heroes slain in no time, fled to the changing room. Some tried to jump over the fence into the open-air bath, but-
Bzzzztttt-!
“Eaaaarrrrgh~?!”
“Uuuuugh~?!”
That wish couldn’t be fulfilled because the magic traps set up by the Ice Dragon King Sleyas were triggered.
I was alone in the hot spring that was cleaned up immediately. No, there was a hero who miraculously didn’t die.
“I knew it! You are Kang Han-soo! Your job has changed, but I’m sure of it! I can tell! You are the only one in the world which smells like a Demon King more than the Demon King himself! Right? Kang-Han-soo…!”
Luke, covered in blood, shouted at me. The rest of the heroes were naked with only one towel, but not so for Luke, who brought the portable armor developed by Factoria. Thus, he barely escaped what would’ve been fatal injuries. This meant that he wasn’t sloppy and weak enough to be killed by a wide-area assault.
I shrugged when Luke asked me for confirmation. Did I need to answer?
Thud! Thud!
“Keugh-?!”
If he didn’t die with one feather, stick two in him. Thinking that far, I was like, ‘Oops!’.
“I forgot to ask where they restart when they die.”
After all, I want to check if they were reincarnated and turned over to a new leaf myself. My effort to kill them wouldn’t be futile, right? But I wasn’t worried.
There were still many targets to ask in the women’s bath.
“Master. Please excuse me?.”
Splash.
Boris, who had canceled the summoning of her pure white wings, entered the bath. Then, she sat down next to me with her buttocks pressed on me. It was a plus to have her pointy head resting on my shoulder.
Also, she drove out the Mind Spirit and played with me using her hands in the water!
“Hmm…”
Her hand movements were out of the ordinary. Of course, it seemed that blood flow was more easily concentrated due to faster blood circulation caused by soaking my body into the hot spring.
Some time passed like that.
Flash!
Spatial movement took place in front of my eyes. Honestly, the response was a bit slower than I expected.
The girl who appeared like that let out a scream.
“Who is it?! The one who killed the heroes of my holy land…!”Yôur favorite 𝒏ovels at n/𝒐(v)el/bin(.)com
Her white hair went down to her knees, her eyes were as white as fresh snow, and her unrealistic chest that the word precocious couldn’t define…she was also wearing a provocative costume and colorful accessories too much for a young girl to wear.
“Be quiet. I can’t concentrate.”
I frowned as I was aiming at the gate soaked with hot spring water while lightly holding the 4th and 5th of lumbar vertebrae of Boris, who stood with her legs slightly spread out in the steaming bath.
“Ugh…”
Boris, whose upper body was bent vertically, glared at the meddler as if she were displeased.
“Hey?! W-w-what are you doing in the sacred hot springs?!”
“Can’t you see?”
I wanted to go on, but my excitement had cooled off because of the imprudent meddling. I let go of Boris’s slim waist. Then, I checked the abilities of the girl who was white from clothes, hair, skin, and eyes.
? Race: Ice Human
? Level: 9999+
? Job: Guardian (Guardian → Damage↓)
? Skill: Freeze ZZZ Heavy Snow ZZZ Magic ZZZ Resistance ZZ Reflection ZZ…
? Status: Transformation, Fury, Absurdity, Protection
Although they fell short of the Five Great Disasters, her skill composition was far beyond the general category. The race was human, but that’s because of the status Transformation.
The girl’s true identity was:
“Ice Dragon King Sleyas.”
The greedy dragon monopolized the central part of the Southern Fantasy Continent.
“You seem to know me, but I don’t know who you are. I remember the faces of all the heroes summoned to the Southern Continent in detail, but I have never seen one as shameless as you.”
“Why do you think I am a hero?”
“The spirit above your head.”
Ice Dragon King Sleyas pointed to the First Spirit.
“Oh! Ice Kid. You remember me. Right! I am the first and noblest spirit in the world. I’m no lightweight spirit that follows anyone.”
“O, First Spirit. Why would someone as noble as you follow such a beastly human?”
Sleyas, speaking without any respect to me as a cheeky girl, spoke politely to the First Spirit. This must be because of her status as a party member of the First Hero, an entity that deserves the respect of everyone living on the Fantasy Continent.
The reality was far from a legend, but the records and achievements of Senior 1’s companions couldn’t be denied.
“I have been bound in body and mind by this hero.”
“Oy?”
This damn spirit? You have to say it right.
“I understand. In other words, this human being is not worth saving. I’ve been guessing it since he killed the heroes I was looking after.”
Sleyas flicked her right hand slightly up.
Shoo! Shoo! Shoo! Shoo!
An icicle-like arrow appeared in the air and shot straight at Boris and me. But I didn’t avoid it. It was because I was certain that the attack couldn’t reach my body.
Boom-!
This was what I meant.
“Kuergh?!”
The hot spring water, which pierced the hard floor and gushed up like a waterspout, smashed the small body of Ice Dragon King Sleyas with all its might. It wasn’t done by the spirits or Boris.
“May the universe protect us, long live our hero?.”
The national anthem of my country came out automatically. If you want to attack me, someone sponsored by the world’s biggest conglomerate – the universe – you have to raise your Luck first. Otherwise, it would end like this.
Crumble, crash, splash.
The hot spring water, which was as hot as steam, was a big blow to Sleyas, the Ice Dragon King.
High abilities? They weren’t omnipotent. For example, having high abilities doesn’t mean you don’t need a spine, right? If you overdo it, you will suffer from a herniated disc. The high spring water had enough physical strength to push up the body of a lightweight girl, and their compatibility wasn’t very good.
It would be different if she were armed.
“W-what is this…”
Ice Dragon King Sleyas, surprised by the fact that the hot spring floor she had put so much effort into was poorly constructed, failed to come to her senses. And I wasn’t the type to miss this opening.
I summoned the Holy Sword Nucleon as I leaped forward. With the great Master Mollan’s education as a surprise attack, I also took advantage of my newly awakened power to manipulate abilities.
? Race: Ice Human
? Level: 9999+
? Job: Guardian (Guardian → Damage↓)
? Skill: Freeze ZZZ Night Snow ZZZ Demonic ZZZ Food Preference ZZ Recoil ZZ…
? Status: Transformation, Confused
I didn’t touch the Freeze Skill, which determined her identity, but I modified all the core skills of the Ice Dragon King Sleyas. Even though she was rolling around uglily, a dragon was a dragon. She was naturally on the defensive and blocked my approach by building a wall of ice.
Klang!
But that wall broke on its own. The skill was changed to the wrong type and couldn’t be maintained.
“What the hell is going on- kyaaah?!”
The Holy Sword Nucleon cut the unrealistic chest of Ice Dragon King Sleyas diagonally.
This wasn’t child violence but a noble act of punishing a perverted lizard pretending to be a beautiful young girl. I pushed the Ice Dragon King Sleyas without giving her a chance to adapt to the sudden change in her abilities.
Even if she adapted, there was no answer. Her core combat skill had been changed to some non-mainstream, wacky secondary class. It wouldn’t be an exaggeration to say that her combat power had decreased by 80 percent.
Bzzzztt, bzzzzztttt-
But this wasn’t permanent. The First Spirit wasn’t hostile to me, so the changed skills could be maintained, but Ice Dragon King Sleyas was fiercely resisting along with the huge system laid on the Fantasy world.
Would it last five minutes at most?
But it didn’t matter. Instead of five minutes, five seconds was enough to catch one dragon that transformed into a delicate human girl.
“Fall. The Ice Dragon King Sleyas who is full of senility and hypocrisy…!”
The mace of justice for the true Five Great Disasters of the Southern Fantasy Continent…!
The Southern Continent of Fantasy, the home of all elves, wasn’t originally a desert. However, at some point, the temperature rose, and the desertification progressed rapidly. The culprit was the Ice Dragon King Sleyas, who wanted to pretend to be strong like Noebius, the Dragon King, by occupying a large territory.
I noticed this fact in the 1st playthrough.
? Curious: How?
That’s a great question, Miss Trainee Teacher!
I wanted to return to Earth as soon as possible, so I gave up on convincing my colleagues who played in this hot spring and moved alone. Using my remarkable wisdom and sacrifice as a stepping stone, I defeated the Flame King Phoenix, the Five Great Disasters of the Southern Continent.
Here’s the question. Why did the temperature in the Southern Continent only drop by one degree?
? Confused: Cadet Kang Han-soo. So, are you saying that Phoenix of the Five Great Disasters is innocent?
The Flame King Phoenix was just there to help. The real culprit was the one that impersonated a slender girl right in front of me. This was the principle of air conditioning. The heat wasn’t lowered but moved outside.
“Fall. The main culprit of global warming…!”
This dragon was more harmful than Freon gas.
