< Chapter 21 - Disagreement #2 >

There were dozens of tribes in the wild lands, but among them, there were four tribes that were particularly strong.
The Angry Horn Tribe, comprised of powerful warriors.
The Great Storm Tribe lives with the wind and seeks harmony.
The Silent Wolf Tribe, which has produced excellent hunters for generations.
The Red Moon Tribe, a tribe of mystical sorcerers.
Among the four tribes, the one that has been particularly expanding its influence in recent times is the Angry Horn Tribe.
By forcibly subduing and uniting the surrounding tribes, their sphere of influence doubled in size after only a few months of expansion.
“For the Angry Horn!”
“For the seven horns of the chieftain!”
The tribes that inhabited the wild lands each had their own wild gods, but not all of them were strong enough to establish their own sanctuaries.
Furthermore, the Angry Horn, the wild god of the Angry Horn tribe, was a powerful being that could be counted on one hand even among the wild gods.
As a wild god who couldn’t even build a proper sanctuary, there was no way to resist.
“Ah! My children! My children!”
A wild spirit in the shape of a girl with small horns on her head cried out as she watched the burning village, but it was no use.
Now that she was already under the spell and most of her powers were sealed away, she was no better than a normal girl.
“Heavenly punishment will come down! The Golden Dragon King will punish you!”
“It’s noisy!”
“Whoa!”
The warrior of the Angry Horn Tribe kicked the wild god with his foot, who had bloodshot eyes – Sharp Horn did not stop there. He grabbed the girl’s golden hair and lifted her head, then swung his fist, which was bigger than her face, several times.
“Ugh··· Ugh······.”
The wild girl, covered in blood in the face of brutal violence, couldn’t even scream, and the sharp horn that kicked the girl for the last time spoke to the warriors around her.
“Take him! Make him realize his situation!”
“All right.”
They were warriors of the already fallen Angry Horn Tribe. To them, who had forgotten to respect the Wild God, the girl in front of them was not someone to be worshipped, but rather a toy that they could play with as they pleased.
As his men dragged away the wild girl, Sharphorn wiped the blood from his hands and headed towards the large flag raised in the middle of the main camp.
However weak it may be, it was to meet a powerful being that had sealed the power of the wild god itself.
“We have captured the wild god and killed its chieftain. As you said, the warriors are capturing as many as possible, even if they are wounded.”
Sharphorn, inside a large leather tent, knelt on both knees and showed the utmost respect.
“Well done, Sharphorn. You didn’t disappoint me this time either.”
“It’s all thanks to Haragen-sama.”
At the kind voice, Sharphorn bowed his head again to show respect.
The Presence Before Our Eyes – The Raging Horn Tribe has changed since the appearance of Prophet Haragen.
It became much more powerful and much richer as a result of continued wars of conquest.
And the sharp horns had also changed.
Sharphorn was not originally a very strong warrior. He was born with a weak body.
But Haragen changed everything.
He made Sharphorn’s body large and strong, and Sharphorn was able to become one of the most powerful warriors even among the Angry Horn Tribe.
Because of this, the sharp horn worshipped Haragen.
His stories that the wild gods were false gods – just beasts with slightly stronger powers – were also considered true.
“Go out and see. Tomorrow, we will have to leave for a new land.”
“Yes, Haragen. Rest well.”
Sharphorn, who had once again bowed his head, stepped back with Gongsun, and Haragen, who was now alone, frowned.
‘It’s annoying.’
It wasn’t something I said to Sharphorn.
Haragen was satisfied with Sharphorn’s loyalty.
From the beginning, the purpose of intentionally giving strength to the weak was to elicit loyalty like the one we have now.
What got on Haragen’s nerves was the bad news coming from far away.
‘Jarakull.’
The connection with the intermediate mine of the Devil’s Eye has been cut off.
It was clear from the circumstances that he was dead.
‘What’s going on?’
Although Haragen had the appearance of a large, old man with a long white beard, he was not his true self to begin with.
He blinked his compound eyes where human eyes should be and thought.
A sanctuary of wild avalanches.
It was not a weak being like the wild god of the tribe we hunted today.
Not having a caretaker meant that there was no one to worship, but it also meant that there was no need to waste energy.
The rough avalanche that had been practiced alone was by no means weak.
Rather, it was a wild god who was on the strong side.
But I never thought that Jarakul would fail.
Because he had handed over a powerful spell that was more than enough to suppress the rough avalanche.
But what happened?
Who killed Jarakul?
It wasn’t a violent avalanche.
If he was the culprit, Jarakul’s death would have been much quicker.
Someone else.
Someone who killed Jarakul, who was corrupting the rough avalanche.
“Red Storm.”
The strongest warrior of the Great Storm Tribe.
But soon he shook his head.
Wasn’t the blue iris curse clearly placed on him?
‘The closest one is Madgard.’
A mid-level mine that is attacking the powerful wild god, Gounnunbaram.
In fact, both the Rough Avalanche and the Fine Snow Wind were wild gods located far from the base of the Angry Horn Tribe, but the reason they went out to attack was because of the Great Storm Tribe.
Corrupt the nearby wild gods and isolate them.
Break the power of the Angry Horn Tribe so that they cannot interfere with its progress.
‘For now, I’ll leave it to Madga. He’ll unify the northeastern region of the Wild Lands.’
The Angry Horn Tribe was located in the northeast region and was advancing with the Serene Wolf Tribe, also located in the northeast region, as their final target.
‘He pollutes the dragon veins and corrupts the wild gods. He even turns the golden dragon king into his slave.’
The Golden Dragon King, the king of the wild gods.
Haragen, who had gathered his thoughts, took out his crystal ball. He released powerful magical power to convey his message to Madga, who was located far away.
&
Three days after leaving Mt. Bawi.
Normally, there would have been plenty of time to reach the village of the Great Storm Tribe, but the harsh avalanche prevented that from happening.
It was for a simple reason.
“Sob sob! Where the hell am I!”
After coming down the rocky mountain, I went straight in the direction that Yuder had told me.
It was a long time ago, but I had been there once before, so I followed my memory.
A day has passed.
There was nothing but a snowy field.
I didn’t really care.
Originally, this area was just a snowfield.
If you keep going like this, you will arrive at the village of the Great Storm Tribe.
Has the Great Storm grown a lot?
The rough snow avalanche, recalling the little boy, smiled warmly and continued walking.
And another day.
There was still only a snowfield, and the rough avalanches were starting to become a little unstable.
“weird.”
I guess I should get out at this point.
A great storm is coming to greet us.
Even if they are children of the Great Storm Tribe.
“Are you busy?”
In fact, there was a much more likely reason than that, but the rough avalanche continued to advance, even though it was carefully ignored.
And another day.
today.
“Eww! Where am I! Where am I!”
The wild avalanches that had been confined to the rocky mountains for hundreds of years were only realized today.
The rough avalanche tells you that you are lost in the direction of travel.
“What do I do, really what do I do?”
It was a clone, not the main body.
Furthermore, since he had left the sanctuary, his divinity, which was already weak, had become even weaker.
If it were the main body, it would have simply used its supernatural powers to fly up, contacted the Great Storm, or even detected the Great Storm’s presence to determine direction, but all of these were impossible for the current rough avalanche.
The current rough avalanche is just a talking cub, a being far removed from the great wild god.
“Ugh… I’m hungry. I’m hungry for the first time in hundreds of years.”
Actually, I’ve been hungry for the past two days.
When I was in the sanctuary, I felt hungry just by breathing, but when I left the sanctuary, I felt as hungry as if I were a real bear cub.
“I hate those black eyes anymore.”
Because I didn’t feel full even after eating.
But even then, all I had to eat right away was the eyes.
The rough avalanche sobbed and ate away at her tear-soaked eyes.
And at that very moment.
“hmm?!”
The sudden chill made Rakannun raise his head. It was because of the sharp sensation that felt like being stabbed in the back.
‘Sir, really?’
The rough snowball swallowed dry saliva and looked back, and soon found the frost wolf. The moment their eyes met, he gave up his stealthy approach and started running at full speed!
“Khuung!”
The bastard even barked. If it were the real thing, it would have been crushed with one punch, but it was a formidable opponent to the current rough snow avalanche.
The sudden, violent avalanche began to run hurriedly.
“Khuuuuuuuu!”
“Eww!”
There was a mixture of roaring and crying.
The rough snowball ran hard, but as a cub, its legs were too short. The distance between it and the frost wolf was shortened in an instant.
“Save the Wild God! Save the Wild God!”
The rough snow avalanche that had been desperately screaming suddenly rolled down the ground. It was because it had tripped on a step that was covered in snow and had not been noticed.
“Eww!”
The rough avalanche rolled down and spread out on the ground, and the frost wolf crossed over the rough avalanche’s head. It quickly overtook it and crushed its chest with its large forepaws.
“Ugh, ugh!”
“Krrrr······.”
The frost wolf snorted and came closer, drool dripping from between its sharp teeth, and the rough snowball struggled hard, but it was no use.
‘Is this how it’s going to go?’
If I had known this would happen, I would have just died in the sanctuary.
‘No, that’s not right, dying!’
He couldn’t die. Didn’t he have a noble mission to spread the dangers of the wild land?
“Eight! It!”
Rough Snow Avalanche began to struggle desperately again, but only for a moment. The Frostwolf stomped harder on his chest, and his claws dug into Rough Snow Avalanche’s hide.
“Kwaaah!”
It hurt so much.
The rough avalanche screamed as it could no longer bear it.
“Save me! Save me! Aaaah! Save me!”
It was the final cry.
Frostwolf didn’t waste any more time and opened his mouth wide.
And then the flames dug into the mouth of that bastard.
bang!
explosion!
The fireball that had dug into the Frostwolf’s throat exploded. It was a terrifyingly precise magic.
It was not a coincidence that the fireball penetrated the Frostwolf’s mouth, but fate.
Moreover, even the control of power was neat.
The Frostwolf was killed instantly by the fireball explosion, but the damage never extended beyond its body.
“Turn it off-.”
The frost wolf, whose throat and internal organs were all burned, collapsed with a single groan, and thanks to that, the rough snowball that was saved blinked its eyes. It let out a ragged breath and jumped up from its seat.
“Who, who are you! No, who are you?!”
Looking in the direction the fireball came from, I saw a man and a woman.
That’s why I thought of a rough avalanche.
‘You came looking for me!’
Uther and Cordelia.
These two people saved me again this time!
“Cordelia! Cordelia!”
It was the moment when I cried out in joy at the sudden avalanche.
“Aren’t you human?”
“You must not attack!”
“I know, I’ll have a clue.”
Voices were heard from both the man and the woman.
It was similar to the two illusive couples, Uther and Cordelia, but with different voices.
Now that I look at it, the hair color and appearance are different.
The girl was pretty.
Looks like Cordelia.
But she had blonde hair and a much sharper look.
The man is handsome.
It really looks like Uder.
But her hair was blue, not black. Her eyes were also blue, not green.
‘It’s also much bigger.’
The wild avalanche that had been blinking came to its senses. It was worried about what to do in front of the two people approaching it at a terrifying speed, and it raised both its arms high.
“Wait a minute! I’m not the enemy!”
“A talking baby bear? Cute… No, that’s not it.”
The blonde woman who had come close to her before she knew it – Adelia shook her head once to concentrate, then threatened the avalanche with the short staff she was holding and asked.
“Who are you? What is your relationship with Cordelia? Have you met her before?”
Depending on the answer, it was a look in his eyes that said he could kill her at any moment.
The rough snow avalanche, which made me flinch without realizing it, spoke urgently.
“I am the wild god, the wild snowball! Cordelia and I are, uh, friends!”
“Wild God? Friend?”
Adelia narrowed her eyes.
Although she knew little about the Wild Lands, she had heard of the existence of the Wild Gods.
And Gale said.
“Who was Miss Cordelia with? What was the name of the person she was with?”
A man with a good look – Gale – but his eyes were truly menacing. The sword he had drawn, which he had no idea when, was even more so.
The rough snow avalanche, which had taken a step back without realizing it and had collapsed, spoke quickly.
.
“You, Youder! Youder and Cordelia! The amazing couple!”
With his eyes tightly shut, Avalanche curled up as much as possible, and Gail and Adelia looked at each other.
“Does that sound right?”
“I don’t agree with the statement that we are a crazy couple.”
“Yes, that’s right.”
What a crazy couple. Who would dare speak rudely to their younger sibling?
Gale and Adelia, who had found common ground in a strange place, smiled without realizing it, then soon each let out a cough and turned their gaze to the rough snowfall.
It was Gayle who spoke first.
“No harm done. Open your eyes.”
It was definitely a much friendlier voice than before.
Geochi-Nun-Avalanche cautiously opened his eyes and looked at Gail and Adelia. He sniffed once and was sure.
‘It’s Uder and Cordelia’s family!’
Probably my brother and sister.
It smelled almost the same as both of them.
“You said avalanche, right? My name is Gail Bayer. This is Adelia Chase.”
Instead of responding to Gale’s introduction, Adelia glared at Avalanche with fierce eyes. Avalanche flinched again and looked at Gale, mustering up his courage and speaking.
“Are you the older brother and sister of Uder and Cordelia?”
“Yes, I came here looking for those two. Do you know where they are?”
It was Gail, whose voice was still friendly, but whose eyes had become sharp again.
Thanks to that, the rough snow avalanche swallowed dry saliva and stood up awkwardly and said.
“I know. The two of them left to help Gounnunbaram.”
“Good Snow Wind? What do you mean you left to help?”
Adelia’s eyes were still sharp, but she now knew the rough avalanche.
Adelia was worried about Cordelia. She was by no means a bad person.
“It’s a long story. It’s not a story that can be told in a short time. But let me tell you one thing in advance: Uther and Cordelia are trying to save the Wild Lands from the threat of demons.”
At the words of the rough avalanche, Gail and Adelia looked at each other. Although not as much as their younger siblings, the two had developed a certain level of understanding after traveling together for over ten days.
‘Does it seem like there’s something there?’
‘It doesn’t seem like a simple runaway.’
Gale turned his gaze back to the rough snowfall.
“Okay, let’s listen to the story.”
“Wait a minute! Before that, there’s a condition… no, I have a favor to ask.”
“Please? Have you forgotten that we saved your life?”
It was a rough avalanche that made me flinch when Adelia struck sharply, but I had to push through anyway.
Gale spoke again, trying to stop Adelia from raising her wand.
“Please tell me.”
“I must go to the Great Storm Tribe. Take me to them. I will tell you the story of Uther and Cordelia on the way. And, to find my bearings, I must go to the village of the Great Storm Tribe.”
Because it was a rough avalanche where I didn’t even know where I was.
Gail nodded slowly.
“Okay, let’s do that.”
“Are you okay?”
“That would be better. This is uncharted territory for us too.”
Gail whispered softly in Adelia’s ear so that only she could hear, then spoke to the rough snowfall again.
“I accept your offer.”
“Oh, thank you.”
Huh-, the rough snow avalanche let out a sigh of relief and slumped his shoulders, and Adelia looked down at the rough snow avalanche with her arms crossed. She thought to herself that it was cute, but she still spoke in a cold voice.
“There’s no time. Hurry up and start the tour. And start the story.”
Since you mentioned the threat of the devil, Uther and Cordelia must be in danger even at this moment.
At Adelia’s urging, the rough snowfall hesitated and answered.
“That, that.”
“that is?”
“First of all, do you know where I am? I’m lost······.”
The rough snow avalanche, which was embarrassed even after saying it, shrank down infinitely, and Gail and Adelia looked at each other.
And the same time, a completely different place.
“Please.”
“Just trust me.”
After saying goodbye to Count Bayer, Count Chase flew into the sky with his hands full of luggage.
The direction is north.
It was in the direction of my two daughters and other things.
