00780 The snowy field of a glacier. ————————————————– ———————-=
Expectations were wrong.
No, you were only half right.
Or should I say it has escaped.
In other words, the evil spirit began to take action in addition to targeting the woman.
They attack again the place where the miracle occurred and mark it with a curse.
He created a subordinate to monitor the woman’s approach.
The world that seemed like it would come back to life for a moment,
We headed back towards destruction.
The evil spirit seems to be mocking
Everything was returned to the way it was.
As a result.
The whole situation started to lead to the worst outcome.
However.
People just watch helplessly,
I didn’t take any specific action.
Just despair,
I was in despair again.
It seemed like he had lost even more vitality than before.
Wouldn’t it be better if I hadn’t tasted salvation?
The woman’s miracle certainly provided hope, but
I had to swallow the pain in my stomach due to the despair that came back.
People who have already accepted the end as a fait accompli,
I was just waiting blankly for the final day.
In some ways, it seemed like I had lost the will to resist.
… that.
For a woman, this was something she could not bear.

From somewhere, the sound of teeth grinding struck my ear. I barely open my eyes and struggle to raise my upper body. As I looked around the tent with difficulty, I could see that it was not the sound of teeth grinding. A crackling sound is heard intermittently from the sleeping bags scattered around. It’s probably the sound of your teeth chattering because it’s cold.
I crawled out of my sleeping bag, sobbing lightly. My body felt a little stiff, but I didn’t have to worry too much, perhaps because of the Somang shirt. Just as I was about to leave the tent, shouting “Long Live Mar” in my head, I was very upset. It must have snowed last night, and white snow was piled up on the frozen ground. However, the important thing is that there is a sleeping bag buried in the accumulated snow.
Aside from wondering why I was sleeping outside alone in this sleeping bag, I was worried that I might have frozen to death. I tried removing the snow and kicking it with my foot, but the sleeping bag didn’t move at all. All it takes is a moaning sound. Well, it would be better to check the status first.
When I pulled out the sleeping bag and put my hand inside, I caught something cold and hard. After calmly groping, I realized that it was her hair that had been curled. When he grabbed what was presumed to be her shoulder and carefully pulled her out, the identity of the smart user was finally revealed.
“Jegal Haesol?”
Jegal Haesol half-opened his eyes and let out a pitiful groan. Her face is pale and her petal-like lips are trembling. Suddenly, it occurred to me that this very pitiful appearance suited Jegal Haesol’s mysterious appearance very well, so I stared at it without realizing it. By the way, he didn’t die, which is a lucky thing, but why did he do such a reckless thing?
“are you okay? “Why are you sleeping outside?”
“uh… . my… .”
Jegal Haesol spoke in a boiling voice, like a person on the verge of death. I slapped him on the cheek a couple of times, and he gritted his teeth and glared at me. Well, it looks like he’s definitely come to his senses. Jegal Haesol did the very daunting-looking action of moving his mouth left and right, and then barely opened his mouth.
“Yesterday, the Clan Lord told us to gather in the big tent and sleep… .”
It certainly did. Human body temperature is like a stove, so I thought it would be less cold if we slept together.
“So?”
“I am… . I can’t sleep with someone else… .”
“… yes?”
“They say dragonflies are incredibly sensitive… . And there is a saying that men and women are equal for seven years… ?”
I wanted to scold him for just that reason, but I held back and started taking off Jegal Haesol’s outer clothes.
“W-what are you doing… ? I’m going to scream… !”
“Then let’s try moving.”
With his eyes wide open, Jegal Haesol started to use the dragon, but he could only wriggle his body.
“Look at that. After sleeping in such a cold mountain, does your body feel cold and hungry? It’s strange that I don’t get frostbite. “I consider it a fluke that it didn’t freeze.”
“Well, still… .”
“I don’t plan on doing anything strange, so just stay still. I have to walk a lot today too. So who wants to sleep outside?”
“… … .”
Jegal Haesol chewed his mouth hard, but remained silent as if he had nothing to say. As I carefully remove the cloth covering his feet, I can see his erect, stiff toes. These are his cute toes.
“Oh, no… . My legs, my legs… .”
It was like a voice begging me not to touch it.
However, the moment I grabbed my feet without any hesitation,
“Ahh… !”
Jegal Haesol let out a mournful cry, like a woman who lost her virginity. Damn it, why do I feel like I’m being forced(?) to do it.
After trying to shake off my feelings, I slowly started caressing Jegal Haesol’s feet. Arousing the power of fire, it ravages, or rather massages, without hesitation from the feet to the calves and thighs. As I massaged his waist, shoulders, and arms, Jegal Haesol finally let out a hot cry. The flushed face is much better than before.
“how is it. “It’s gotten a lot better, right?”
Jegal Haesol glared at me with angry eyes, then opened his sleeping bag and wrapped it around his legs.
“Black. oh my god. “In the end, I was defeated.”
Then he covered his face with both hands and burst into tears. Yeah, put on a show. Put on a show. Well, I wouldn’t feel unfair if I touched my flesh. The only bare skin I touched was the sole of my foot, so I don’t know what I’m so dissatisfied with. Feeling dumbfounded, I took out the tobacco and took a bite, and Jegal Haesol glanced at me.
“Try to react. “Because it’s embarrassing.”
“How are you telling me to react?”
“First, I take a deep breath of tobacco and smile as wickedly as I can. And this is what I say.”
“… … ?”
“Hehe, you pretended to be so noble, but in the end, you were the same female. Well, it was still a pretty nice body. From now on, I will take responsibility and treat you cutely. “Tsk!”
“… … .”
Who is trying to define my personality in their own way?
“User Jegal Haesol. “I’m asking this because I’m very worried. Do you have any masochism?”
“Oops, I got caught. Yes, I am actually interested in masochism. In technical terms, it is also called a femsub.”
Jegal Haesol smiled mischievously without blinking, and I put my thumb and middle finger together and lightly flicked his forehead.
“ouch. “Why are you hitting me?”
“It looks like you’ve completely recovered from the nonsense you’re talking about. Anyway, do your best and prepare for transportation. “I’m going down right away after clearing the camp.”
When I spoke in a scolding tone, Jegal Haesol stuck out his mouth.
“joy. “Can you please stop treating me like a shuttle?”
I got up without responding any further. They must have woken up and are crawling out of the tent one by one.
“… thank you.”
At that moment, a small voice came from behind me.
Still, he said he was grateful.
*
After waking up, all my colleagues agreed to go down and eat breakfast. I think I probably wanted to get away from this mountain as quickly as possible. So we moved down using Zhuge Haesol’s transportation ability and started a cold breakfast at a suitable place. Unfortunately, there wasn’t even a single common tree at the bottom of the mountain, so we had to eat the dried meat we brought in the Chaos Mimic.
While he was in the middle of tearing into the dried meat, Jin Soo-hyun licked his lips and opened his mouth.
“When I think about it, it’s a big deal. There is not a single mountain animal to be seen here, let alone a tree… . “Is drinking water the only thing you don’t have to worry about?”
“I know. Still, there is quite a bit of dried meat, right? “My brother continued to procure food from outside while coming here.”
Lee Yu-jeong muttered while tearing into pieces of meat. Her heart was pounding. She may have just said it casually, but she was surprisingly sharp. Perhaps, if Ko Yeon-joo had been here, she would have definitely been suspicious. She debated whether to make an excuse or not, but decided to just calmly continue eating. I think it would be best for her to just sneak away rather than react.
“But what kind of area is this? “It’s nice because the cold is gone.”
good. Baek Han-gyeol returned the topic.
“Iknow, right. The icy wind definitely disappeared… . Doesn’t this place look like a snow desert? No, should I say it’s the land of snow?”
Ha Seung-yoon turns his head to answer the question. As they said, the entire area below the mountain was covered with snow. This vast snow field, sparkling in the morning sunlight, can be seen as a type of hilly terrain with snow hills rising here and there. The number of hills was so large that it was difficult to see with an open view, and their sizes also varied greatly. Without exaggerating, there were several hills that were almost the size of buildings, and as a result, there were many places where visibility was limited.
Lee Yu-jeong shrugged her shoulders.
“It’s mysterious, and it’s also bitchy… . It’s still too quiet. And although it’s much better than the mountains, it’s still cold. You can’t see anything to eat again, right? “Who could live here?”
“swimming. Then there won’t be any monsters, right?”
“Maybe?”
“Yes? Yes!”
Ha Seung-yoon, perhaps because he liked the radish so much, showed an over-the-top reaction by clapping his hands like a seal, and Lee Yu-jeong stared at Ha Seung-yoon with trembling eyes.
“well. “I don’t think that’s necessarily true.”
At that time, Hanbyeol Kim struck the candle in a cool voice. Lee Yu-jeong’s right eye slowly opened.
“So you’re saying you are?”
“I don’t know. But I think it could be possible.”
“why?”
“Animals, as well as humans, have the ability to adapt to the environment. And he hasn’t even looked at everything yet, so it’s too early to jump to conclusions.”
Lee Yoo-jeong tilted her head at the clear explanation.
“is it?”
“I guess so.”
“okay. Well, actually, it doesn’t really matter. By the way, I only have water.”
“yes. for a moment… . I beg your pardon?”
Kim Han-byeol stretched out her hand and then turned her head to glare at Yu-jeong Lee.
“Just kidding, just kidding. You said there was no malice. “You’re telling me not to react at all?”
Lee Yu-jeong laughed and waved, but no one laughed. Everyone looks at Yu-jeong Lee in wonder as he scratches his head in embarrassment. So did I. It seemed like we were ignoring each other, but since when did we start talking so freely? Although we can’t say we’re particularly close, it seems like we’ve recovered to the level we were in our rite of passage days.
I was curious as to how the relationship was restored, but it wasn’t a bad thing anyway. Rather, it is a welcome.
“Hangbyeol.”
Just as I was about to slip into a happy mood, Hanbyeol Kim glared at me with a deadly force.
“… “Oh, no.”
I cleared my throat awkwardly and blurted out my words. Better just keep your mouth shut.
It was then.
“Kim Soohyun.”
Heo Jun-young suddenly narrowed his eyes and called to me. It wasn’t his usual empty voice, but a slightly nervous tone. Just as I was about to ask why, I suddenly felt a strange vibration through the snow-covered ground. The vibration was felt briefly and then disappeared. Nothing is affected by magic power detection.
Slurp!
The sound of a blade gently scraping is followed by silence. Woo Jung-min took out a katana. This is proof that I wasn’t the only one who felt the vibration just now.
“Are we getting closer?”
“I do not know. However, it soon weakened.”
In response to Nam Da-eun’s question, Woo Jeong-min turned to the right and said. In the direction I was looking, I saw a snow plate with an endless gentle slope. If we stand at a place where there is a sharp bend, the location we are currently in will be immediately exposed.
As I quietly got up, all eyes were on me. Without saying anything, I motioned for him to get up and pointed to two nearby snow hills. You will be able to hide between two large hills. Since we had a light meal, there was nothing else to take. After hastily erasing our traces, we safely entered the hill, keeping our footsteps quiet. But there is no one in sight. Seungwoo Ha.
Ha Seung-woo was still crouching where we had just sat.
“Ha Seung-woo… !”
When I called a little louder, Ha Seung-woo raised his left hand. He then looked at the slope to his right and immediately turned around and ran up the hill.
“What are you doing here?”
Ha Seung-woo did not respond to my words and quietly recited the spell.
“────. ────. Shut Out.”
Huh!
A light wind swept through the hills.
“Blocking magic?”
“iced coffee. Clan Lord. for a moment.”
Ha Seung-woo looked at the slope once more and his nervous eyes shone. Then he grabbed me and opened his mouth, his voice muffled.
“I was a little late because I had to erase my traces.”
“trace? “Didn’t you delete it earlier?”
“But it didn’t erase the warmth. So I memorized a cold wind spell to match the surrounding temperature, but strangely the magic didn’t work properly.”
“… … .”
As he stared, Ha Seung-woo continued speaking in an even lower voice. To the point where he wouldn’t be able to hear properly unless he improved his hearing.
“and… . “The approach is similar to ours.”
“What are you talking about?”
“When it got close to its prey, it intentionally killed it.”
“For concealment purposes?”
“That’s part of it, but it’s also done to confuse people. Because you won’t know which direction it’s coming from. Anyway, this isn’t important. “Do you understand what I mean?”
“no way… .”
Then Ha Seung-woo nodded slightly, looked away for the third time, and opened his mouth.
“It means that those who are approaching now know that we were there.”
It was then.
Suddenly, at the end of the slope, large objects reflecting dazzling silver light began to appear.
“That… .”
—————————= Review of the work ——————– ——-=
Thank you for your concern. Thanks to the kind support and kind words of readers, I think things are getting better little by little. In fact, a lot of my depression has disappeared, and I feel like I have regained some of my vitality. I think it’s probably just a temporary phenomenon. I think the right answer was to keep writing.
I will stop complaining through reviews until today. From the next session onwards, I will do my best to write content and reviews in an enjoyable way.
I would like to express my sincere gratitude for believing in me despite my shortcomings.
Well, I hope all readers have a restful night, or rather a refreshing and energetic morning! 😀
