by fnovelpia“Maker, wait a minute.”
Before heading to the mission location.
Astra called me.
“Astra? Do you have anything else to say?”
Astra nodded to my question.
“Do you know the level of heroes you’ll be facing at the lab this time?”
“Yes. Didn’t you clearly say that you sent new heroes to gain experience?”
At first, I was a little nervous about bringing in heroes, but when I looked into the situation, I realized that the association had figured out that this was a fairly light mission and had brought in new heroes to give them some experience.
“But I hope you don’t look down on them too much. I’m going to supervise those newbies and send them with at least a B+ grade to protect them when things go wrong.”
“There’s no way I’d send only rookie heroes on a mission.”
Honestly, I wasn’t really worried.
If I try, I’ll probably get a B+, but will the busy and precious A-class people come at this point?
Although the original story will gradually develop into a connection with the Korean Association, it is still a long way off.
I was lucky enough to meet the Ice Queen right away, so will I ever meet her again?
I thought that wouldn’t happen.
***
‘But I didn’t know they would send a real A-class.’
I had no idea that I would be facing this alone.
“..? Excuse me? Can’t you hear me?”
The Ice Queen, wondering why I wasn’t speaking, raised her voice a little and asked.
‘What should I do..’
Honestly, I could probably kill her now.
Since it is still the early part of the original work, she is immature both mentally and experientially.
Since we all know about trauma, we can do something about it.
but.
‘…It’s a problem because you can’t kill them.’
She, the heroines, must become stronger for me in the future.
Even if they aren’t heroines, you have to make them stronger and stronger so that they can defeat the final boss.
“Hoo..”
It sucks that I have to fill that guy’s spot, but I have to do it to survive.
‘Let’s put other thoughts aside and think about how to escape first.’
“Are you curious about who I am? Haha, I am…”
“……”
“This research institute’s…investor. Investor.”
“……”
“I stopped by to see the results of my investment today, but there was an attack…”
‘..?…What? Why aren’t you talking?’
I opened my mouth to at least tell her what I wanted to say, but I felt a little strange when she looked at me without saying anything.
His facial expression was also quite strange.
It’s as if your whole body is expressing with your face, “Why are you here?”
“…Maker?”
‘..Fuck.’
I quickly turned my head and looked out the window.
The clouds that had been there just a moment ago have completely disappeared.
And the bright moonlight was shining down on me.
“..um.”
Boom. Roll..
Pusheee-
I hurriedly threw a smoke grenade and ran.
“Stand there, Maker!!”
“..haha, this is really…”
‘What should I do?’
And so began an untimely one-night chase.
***
‘This is tricky.’
Things got messed up.
‘I thought it would be easy because it’s clearly a story that wasn’t in the original, but what is this…’
“Stop, Maker.”
The Ice Queen overtook me as I was running, then turned around and looked at me.
..Should we at least say hello?
“How have you been, Ice Queen..”
Peeing-
As I smiled and greeted him, sharp ice flew towards my arms and legs.
I instantly created a large shield and blocked it.
“What kind of rudeness is that to someone who greets you?”
“Don’t you need to be so polite to me?”
Ice Queen looks at Maker with slightly eagle-eyed eyes.
“Why on earth did you raid the lab?”
“It’s not easy for me to tell you because it’s our organization’s business.”
“Then don’t say anything.”
The Ice Queen slid toward her, freezing the floor around her.
“I’ll catch you and make you confess!”
“I will refuse.”
If you can catch it, try to catch it.
After saying that, I threw a smoke grenade again and ran.
“The same method doesn’t work..!!”
Boom!
This time, mix in some grenades too.
I ran away.
Kwaaang!
After a while, he was caught and ran away again using his numbers.
How many times has this happened before?
I turned the corner and tapped the communicator urgently.
“This is the maker! Can you hear me?”
– Phew, heading towards the training center target point..!!
– 42. Organizing where the target data is located.
You are carrying out your mission diligently in your own way.
I’d like to tell you that you’re doing well, but something more important has come up right now.
“Encounter with the A-class hero Ice Queen. She is currently being chased.”
– Huh? A-class hero?
– Is there a change in strategy?
42. Unlike the trainer, he asked me calmly without panicking.
I think it was a good idea to bring him.
“Yes. I think some changes are needed.”
Ting- Degurur..
Kwaaang!!
I made a grenade and threw it far away against the wall next to the hallway.
Then, in an instant, the corridor collapsed and was blocked.
Then I took a deep breath and pressed the communicator.
“First, let’s switch roles a bit between me and 42. 42 will go to the control room.”
Currently, her aggro is attracted to me.
Rather than letting this aggro bounce off to someone else and ruin the mission, it’s better to be bait and have her chase after you.
‘It would be better if I could just tie it up in a suitable place.’
“I’ll take charge of the Ice Queen. You can take control of the control room with your 42 skills, right?”
– it’s possible.
‘Okay. Now the problem is the trainer…’
Originally, when she was cracking the code, the person she chose to act as a bodyguard was 42.
But, since I suddenly had to focus on marking the Ice Queen and 42 had to fill my empty spot, the trainer’s security role was disrupted.
‘We mustn’t lose all our strength in vain if we are suddenly attacked by surprise..’
“Trainer.”
– Yes, yes..?
“What happened in the previous skirmish? Did you escape safely?”
To check how much time was left, I asked her about the situation earlier.
-Ah, that..?
Her voice sounded a little taken aback by my question.
It was like a child wanting to be praised.
-I, I killed them all..!
An Ye-ri speaks to me with a smile on her face.
‘…What?’
What kind of mass murder was committed in my absence?
The sound of her voice, as if asking for praise, gave me goosebumps for a moment.
Surely he didn’t kill all the heroes?
I haven’t even picked out any useful gemstones yet…
“..You mean heroes?”
– Uhm… no…? He, he didn’t kill them…
“Whew..”
Fortunately, it doesn’t seem to be the situation I thought.
– He, he… knew that I was an Eclipse executive… so he ran away…
“……”
It really wasn’t what I thought it would be.
‘The hero ran away?’
Let’s take a moment to think about this slightly confusing situation.
“Then you mean he killed you..”
– Rain, villains..!
It seems that the new heroes ran away, and only the villains disguised as security guards remained to block the training center.
“…Well done.”
– Hehehe…
Yeah, it would be more helpful to kill the final boss later if the hero lives rather than the villains who don’t listen and only care about their own selfish desires.
…I guess so?
“Then, do you know how many enemies are left, excluding those who are running away?”
– Uhm… Okay, just wait a minute..!
Crunch.
As she finished speaking, an eerie, cutting sound was heard over the communicator.
– It’s gone now..!
“……”
Those were truly villainous words.
***
“Then, I think the trainer should go to the place where the research materials are stored as planned.”
There is no need to protect her anymore.
You slaughtered them all by yourself, so what are you protecting from?
– yes..!
Even if one or two of them attack her, she should be able to handle them on her own.
“By the way, when you were fighting, weren’t there any other heroes besides the new ones? I don’t think the Ice Queen would have taken on all the new ones by herself.”
– Oh, I don’t think there was any..!
“Is that so?”
‘Even if it’s not possible, there should be at least one more hero who can lead…’
Well, that’s not the important part, so let’s move on.
Crackle. Crackle.
“Then I guess I should get back to work. I’ll see you both later.”
-yes..!
-All right.
Stop.
I looked at the barricade created by the collapsed wall and the disconnected communication.
Bam! Bam!
“Finally found it. Maker.”
A barricade that is easily destroyed.
The Ice Queen, who had blown away the barricade, looked at me.
“Of course it’s nice to be so obsessed with a beautiful woman, but it’s a little burdensome right now.”
“..What are you saying!”
She suddenly got angry when I spoke to her in a cheeky way.
The Ice Queen seemed a little genuinely annoyed, so she created an ice cube and threw it at me.
‘Are you angry? Then let’s catch him.’
I smiled at her and ran without looking back.
“I told you to stand there!”
The Ice Queen runs towards me with her eyes even more blazing than before.
‘Guys, finish this quickly.’
Otherwise I feel like I’m going to get stuck in the ice.
***
‘..Okay! Let’s do our best without causing any trouble!’
Meanwhile, the trainer, whose communication was over, headed to the database containing the target research data to carry out his assigned role.
‘Turn the corner…left!’
The trainer, who had been running along the location indicated by the Maker, finally arrived near the storage facility.
‘Finally here… um..?’
“Hey, hero..?”
What appeared before her eyes was a man.
A very handsome man was smiling as if he was handsome.
“Hello pretty?”
“…ugh.”
The trainer felt a strange stickiness in the gaze looking at him.
She was so scared that she unconsciously put her hand on the sword.
“…If you don’t give up, I’ll call you..”
“Haha, you’re so annoying~”
Dalgrak.
The man, Iron, licked his lips and fiddled with the potion in his pocket.
