    Episode 425

    Simon and Lethe’s expressions hardened at the same time as they looked inside the dungeon owner’s room.

    “……What is this?”

    There was nothing in the dungeon owner’s room.

    It was just empty. A bewildered sound came out of Simon’s mouth who was very nervous.

    “Don’t let your guard down. It might be hiding.”

    Lethe said as she came inside.

    However even after running Simon’s Dark World and Lethe’s Holy World detection the dungeon owner did not even see a snout. I came out of the dungeon master’s room and looked around but the same thing happened.

    This was the first time that there was no dungeon lord in the dungeon.

    “Well wouldn’t that be a big problem?”

    Simon touched his forehead with a stern expression.

    “The dungeon disappears only when the dungeon owner is destroyed.”

    “It was a situation I had never even heard of so my brain stopped. Think for a moment.”

    The dungeon owner stays in the dungeon.

    That’s the basic concept.

    There are times when the dungeon owner sends monsters out of the dungeon but there is no case where the dungeon owner himself empties the dungeon.

    The fact that the dungeon was maintained even though the dungeon owner had left the dungeon in the first place was strange.

    “Please guys.”

    While Lethe was lost in thought Simon took out the corpse spiders from subspace.

    “Please bring me things that could be clues.”

    -Kirik!

    The corpse spiders dispersed all at once. There were some that were twitching their buttocks and digging into bone mounds or scanning the ceiling or walls.

    And just one minute after giving the reconnaissance order a corpse spider approached Simon.

    “Did you find something?”

    Simon who had turned red opened his eyes wide and saw that there was a bug stuck to the spider’s front leg.

    -Kirik! Kirik!

    The corpse spider jumped up and down as if he thought he had found something great.

    Simon just shook his head.

    -Kiri……

    The corpse spider which had been sullenly lowering its body put the insect in its mouth and turned its back.

    Lethe who was quietly watching from behind said.

    “What? That spider is cute.”

    “Even if it looks like that it’s undead.”

    “Evil bastards.”

    “……?”

    After a while another corpse spider came carrying something.

    woman’s hair. And old clothing.

    Simon observed it closely.

    “hey.”

    Lethe who returned from searching the dungeon master’s room once more called Simon.

    “You don’t have to be here to get sharp numbers. Let’s go out of the dungeon. Something might change.”

    “Then. That monster we caught earlier could be the dungeon owner.”

    The two went back out of the dungeon through the dungeon gate they came from earlier.

    I thought about it but it was just the same cave as before. There was no major change.

    Coo!

    However a loud noise was heard outside the dungeon. Simon reacted sharply.

    “There’s someone outside!”

    “Let’s go!”

    The two quickly ran out of the cave.

    Hehehe!

    And then I came face to face with the gray-haired people surrounding the cave.

    ‘Mizenashi!’

    They were the Mizenashi people the ruling class of Eskail Village. In the middle there was also ‘Nenia Mizenashi’ the village chief.

    “Did you find this place?”

    Nenia’s eyes turned cold.

    “If I had gone down the snowy mountain pretending not to see it I could have saved my life.”

    Other Mizenashi people also said something.

    “How dare you set foot in the sanctuary!”

    “Now you won’t be able to return alive!”

    Cheok!

    chuck!

    They spread out their palms and aimed at Simon and Lethe. What was fluttering in their palms was pure elemental freezing magic.

    ‘I can’t let down my guard.’

    These wizards had a high degree of perfection as they had been honing their ice magic all their lives. It reminded me of Meilin’s pitch black ice world.

    “Sounds like gender-verse.”

    Lethe raised her spirits and stepped forward. A blinding white flash enveloped her body.

    “Let’s break it down when you say good things about where the dungeon master was stolen.”

    Nenia’s eyebrows twitched but there was no further reaction.

    Lethe smiled brightly.

    “Ah then there is nothing we can do. You have to hit it and make it blow……”

    Wow!

    Binge drinking continues again.

    Simon’s eyes turned to where the explosion was heard. The explosion was not caused by the people of Mizenashi.

    ‘That direction…’

    Eskail Village.

    The village is under attack.

    Seeing that it used something like explosives it is not a monster. The moment the attacker was limited to the same ‘human’ something flashed through Simon’s mind.

    -We won’t just be waiting for death like this.

    The voice of Lord Kula who was looking at the Mizenasi village in the snowy mountains with hateful eyes came to mind.

    ‘The Kula people of the city below!’

    * * *

    Wow!

    “Burn the village! Capture the wizards!”

    “The cause of the severe cold is right in front of you!”

    Severe cold extreme food shortages and even monster attacks.

    Completely cornered Kula had only one choice.

    Kula’s vigilantes and village men were climbing the steep mountain hill and attacking Escail.

    Sreuk! Sigh!

    The Eschail people hiding behind the stockade took out their bows.

    “The dirty Kula guys have revealed their ambition!”

    “The warm land was taken from us and now this village!”

    “Defend Eskail with your life!”

    Arrows flew one after another. The people of Kula are hit by pick-picks collapsing and rolling around in the snow.

    However the number of people was much higher in Kula.

    “charge!”

    The lord of Kula shouted as he struck down the arrows with his sword.

    “Don’t back down! This terrible cold must end here!”

    * * *

    Simon was looking towards the village. As the severe cold weather subsided Escail Village was now clearly visible.

    I don’t know exactly what’s going on but the fence is on fire and a series of loud noises are heard.

    Simon felt his prediction was certain. The Kula people who have reached their limits due to the extreme cold are attacking Eskail Village.

    “Is it okay if I don’t go to the village?”

    Lethe said angrily looking at the people of Mizenashi.

    “You must be the biggest force in the village.”

    Even though their village was under attack the Mizenashi people did not move.

    Nenia Mizenashi simply raised her staff and struck the floor.

    A large ice magic circle is unfolding.

    “It is more important to get rid of you the witnesses here and now. That is Mizenashi’s mission.”

    It wasn’t someone I could communicate with. Simon turned his head.

    “Lete go to the village and stop the war.”

    “……Then what about you?”

    “This time I will deal with it alone. That’s enough.”

    Lethe looked at Simon with worried eyes then closed her eyes and nodded.

    “I believe it.”

    “huh.”

    fault!

    Lethe started running down the snowy mountain. Nenia Mizenashi let out a scream.

    “Catch that bitch!!”

    The moment when the Mizenashi wizards fired ice magic all at once.

    Wow!

    Purple lightning struck Lethe from all directions destroying the ice magic without a trace.

    “……!!”

    “What just happened!”

    The lightning which was frantically coloring the air purple landed in Simon’s hand as it flew up into the sky.

    <Simon Original – Chaos Spear>

    Simon threw the Spear of Chaos again and smashed it into the feet of the Mizenashi people who were chasing Lethe. They were startled and stopped walking.

    ‘That bastard!’

    Lethe glanced back and laughed.

    ‘Are you still hiding that technology?’

    “Take out the golem! Stop it at all costs!”

    At Nenia’s instructions a wizard raised an ice golem from the floor.

    “You can’t pass here…!”

    Whoops!

    Okay!

    At the same time two purple spears flew quickly into the golem’s body and exploded.

    “I can’t pass.”

    chuck.

    Simon came down with the soles of his feet on the chaotic spear stuck in the floor.

    Meanwhile Lethe climbed over the explosion and went down to the village in a huff.

    “I prepared for the battle with the dungeon lord but I didn’t know I would use it on you.”

    Simon’s hand went to the magic circle on his waist.

    Like a knight drawing a sword three purple crackling spears were stuck between Simon’s fingers.

    “What on earth is this?! Teacher Sean!!”

    Nenia Mizenashi shouted in a panic.

    “Who sent you!”

    “It might be difficult to answer that question.”

    Simon threw three spears into the air. Purple lightning flew like crazy in the sky in unpredictable orbits.

    “But if you guys are honorable you don’t have to worry about who sent me.”

    A flash of chaos fell on the people of Mizenashi along with the sound of the wave.

    * * *

    “Shoot! Keep shooting!”

    “Go in!”

    The battlefield was overheated.

    The moment the anger that had been accumulated over a long period of time exploded towards each other whether it was Eskail or Kula all that was left was hatred. No one was willing to make a rational judgment.

    The situation is a melee.

    The fate of the war could not be predicted.

    Although Kula had an absolute advantage in terms of number and training intensity they had also climbed the snowy mountain through the bitter cold with hungry stomachs so their physical strength and condition were extremely poor.

    Escail’s side was also overwhelmingly inferior and the main force Mizenashi was all gone so it could not be considered an advantage.

    Arrows fly and the metallic sound of swords clashing rings out. The Kula people lit rum bottles on fire set fire to the fence and tore down the barrier.

    As the barrier was torn cold and snowstorms entered the village.

    Tragedy.

    At this rate no matter which side won everyone would freeze to death in the extreme cold and be wiped out but no one had any intention of stopping.

    Right then.

    “Stop everything!!”

    A person appeared trying to stop it.

    I saw a white-haired girl walking across the bloody battlefield with great strides.

    “Le Leah Teacher!”

    “Lord! This is the priest who saved the territory over there!”

    Lethe walked calmly in the middle of the battlefield. Blind arrows sometimes passed around her but she did not blink.

    “Priest!”

    The Lord of Kula was startled and jumped forward.

    “Stay back! It’s dangerous! Here we are…!”

    Hot!

    Lethe suddenly grabbed the lord by the collar. Then.

    Sigh!

    I punched him with all my might. The lord whose cheeks turned red rolled on the floor.

    “My lord!”

    The terrified vigilantes pointed their swords at Lethe.

    When Lethe glared at him with wide eyes the vigilantes who seemed ready to attack him flinched and stopped moving.

    “Oh really!”

    She cursed and swung her arm at the lord.

    Less evil!

    But it wasn’t an attack. He had caught the arrow aimed at the fallen lord with his bare hands.

    Okay!

    When I tightened my hand the arrow broke in half.

    “Don’t what I say sound the same you bastards!!”

    Then he grabbed the choke that sealed the saint’s power that was worn around his neck and smashed it.

    Hwaaaaaaaaaaa!

    Then for a moment the bitter cold weakened the night sky turned bright the dark clouds cleared and light came down to Lethe.

    [My name is Lethe Shardena!]

    A clear star-shaped image appeared in her eyes.

    [She is a star saint.]

    Oooooh!

    When she raised her arms the stars in the night sky fluttered and responded. Countless white meteors fixed in the air began to form.

    “A saint?”

    “Leah is a saint?”

    Both camps were in an uproar.

    [Select.]

    She shouted with bloodshot eyes.

    [Should we stop fighting or just let them both fall into my hands!]
