The Yeti’s leather is so tough that a knife cannot be cut into it. The Yeti had a lot of fat on its body to survive in extremely cold areas, and its hide, which evolved to withstand sharp cold winds, was not something that could be easily cut. Especially if it’s a Yeti wearing a spear.

However, Xian lightly cut off Yeti’s arm.

The famous sword Lobera.

In front of that sword, which was a collection of ancient technology, the Yeti’s skin was like a leaf.

Sian exclaimed while praising Lovera.

“Yeti, messing with my family?!”

His golden eyes were shining with a fierce expression. Xian’s fierceness, reminiscent of the Black Tiger, a mountain ranger in the Titan Mountains, was enough to scare the Yeti. However, Changgui forced the Yeti to move.

‘“Ahh! Ian, you stinky butcher! It’s all because of you, because of you, I’m like, ahhh! I lost everything!”’

As expected, as a ghost who lives in resentment and is influenced by resentment, when the most hated object was in front of him, the power of the curse began to grow stronger.

Something leapt out from the Yeti’s shadow and attacked Xian.

“What?”

Sian was momentarily taken aback by the strange phenomenon he had experienced for the first time in his 20-year life as a hunter, but soon he calmly cut down all the black things flying at Lobera.

‘“Khahahaha! 도망치는 꼴이 개새끼 같아, 죽어! Die!’”

Changgui, taunting with Yeti’s mouth, tormented Xian with an awakened curse. The Yeti looked like a drugged animal, as if it felt joy at the sight of a cat playing with a mouse.

“Hey.”

But unfortunately, Changgui was not a cat, and Xian was a tiger, not a rat.

“Are you really that lame?”

‘“Me, lame?! This guy is going to kill me!”’

“That’s right, I see you’re building up your pride for no reason.”

As if his eyes had adjusted to the shadow curse, Xian gradually got closer to Changgui and spoke while leisurely swinging his sword.

“When a monster eats a person, the soul of the person while alive attaches to it and turns into a ghost. Normally, I would have felt sorry for him and tried to kill him without pain, but I couldn’t do that with you.”

Xian, with his bulging muscles, was by no means small compared to the Yeti. He took the posture of a wild beast and declared while glaring at Chang Gui.

“Are you trying to kill your daughter?

The moment his declaration was made, the ground he was standing on cracked and he ran away at a speed that was difficult to follow with the naked eye.

He then tried to cut down the Yeti’s right side, which had its arm cut off and was unable to defend itself.

“’Stupid guy!”’

However, Chang Gui laughed at Xian and blocked the attack. This is because the arms that fell off due to the shadow curse were reattached.

“’Do you think you will be attacked by an obvious attack?”’

“You know how to use your brain more than I thought. Shouldn’t you have used it before you were alive?”

However, Xian did not look particularly embarrassed even when the attack was blocked. Changgui seemed to not like his expression and ran wild.

‘“’You son of a bitch! Am I funny?! Is it funny? ”’

“Funny.”

Changgui swung his front paw toward Xian’s face with Yeti’s body.

“Oppa!”

Elin was startled by that sight. For no reason, I thought that my brother might be dying because of me.

But despite her worries, Sian easily blocked the Yeti’s front paw with one hand.

“Why do you make things difficult for many people by showing off your pride unnecessarily when you could have lived without your pride?”

“Shut up! That cheeky face… Huh?”’

Chang Gui was embarrassed. The Yeti’s body he was handling was that of a monster that could crush a tree with just the strength of its front paws. But I started to lose out to Sian.

It was not through aurors, magic, or God’s blessings, but through pure physical strength that humans surpassed monsters.

“Hey, does Changgui feel pain?”

“’You monster!”’

“I think it would be nice if you were a little distressed.”

Xian ripped off the Yeti’s front paw with just the strength of his hands. Of course, the Changgui that used the Yeti’s body as a host was also in pain, so it had no choice but to struggle.

“’Kwaaahhh!!!?”?

“You feel the pain as expected.”

“’Die! Die!’”

It was a spear that counterattacked with a shadow curse, but the same tactic did not work against Xian, a skilled hunter.

With one swing of Lobera, he cut down the shadow once and cut off all of the Yeti’s limbs.

“‘Quaaahhh!!!””

. . .

Let me and Changgui run wild.

Even though it was the middle of the night, several villagers heard the commotion and came out of their houses.

While everyone was shocked to see Yeti’s body, Tom was the only one who came up to me and gave me advice.

“To completely kill the Changgui, you have to burn its body.”

“Is there a reason?”

“I don’t know the details. In the past, the holy knights of the Holy Kingdom unconditionally burned the corpses of monsters that had become ghosts.”

“Hmm… ”

I was concerned about Tom’s advice. Due to the nature of my job, I wanted to analyze the Yeti’s skin on the spear.

“Don’t think it’s a waste for no reason. The corpse of the monster wielded by Changgui is full of curses.”

“Is that so?”

“Yes, so burn it.”

“Tsk, I understand.”

Although I had lost my appetite, I followed Tom’s advice and burned the Yeti’s body. Dirty flames soared in the increasingly cold night sky.

“Elin! Are you hurt anywhere?”

“Yes, mom is not hurt.”

“What about the neck? Bruises on my neck… ”

“I’m fine.”

Elthea was worried about her daughter Elin, and Elin showed a calm smile as she tried to keep her mother from worrying.

Tom, seeing the mother and daughter like that, asked me in a sharp tone.

“Anyway, how did you know?”

“What is it?”

“I mean the Changgui attack. According to legend, it is said that Changgui charms people and lures them towards him.”

“Oh, that’s it.”

If my senses were anything to go by, I would have felt the presence of a monster near my house.

However, rather than attacking, Changwi cunningly brought Elin to his side with a curse, and I had no idea what Elin’s crisis was.

“The back of my neck suddenly became cold.”

“The nape of the neck?”

“Yes. I thought it was an oracle.”

“Trust?”

“Before going to sleep, my wife and I prayed to Hestia. I asked for help so that I could protect my family, but tonight I felt it right away.”

“So it is a trust?”

“Then, if this isn’t a trust, what is a trust?”

“Well, it’s not wrong. Since ancient times, Hestia has helped heads of families who want to protect their families.”

“You know theology well.”

“Because my close friend is knowledgeable in theology. Whenever we drank, we talked about theology all the time.”

“Surely, that friend?”

“Yes, he was Sylvia’s father.”

Looking at Tom looking at the fire with eyes full of sorrow, it seems that their relationship was stronger than expected.

“Still, you’re amazing.”

“I am skilled as a hunter.”

“Is there anyone in the village who doesn’t know your skills as a hunter? Other than that, I think of Elin as family. My friend says that Hestia won’t help you if you don’t love your family.”

“Oh, really?”

I answered Tom’s words while scratching my head.

“But if we live together, aren’t we family?”

Tom, who was silent for a while, probably because my answer was strange, started bursting into laughter.

“Puhahahaha, as expected, you are a good man.”

“Ah, thank you for the compliment.”

In any case, the night that was so dangerous because of the ghosts ended noisily.

. . .

“Oppa, what are you doing?”

“We are making safety devices.”

“Safety device?”

Due to the nature of their job, hunters can never forget something that happened to them.

This is because each of these experiences determines the success or failure of the hunt. And I, who had this habit, couldn’t pass by like a myceliac.

“Because it’s dangerous if there’s a monster using a curse to lure you out of the house like last time. We are making things to prepare for this.”

“I see… I’m going to go have fun!”

As if the work didn’t seem fun, Clia ran to another place at a brisk pace.

‘If possible, I’d like to make it the entire village.’

It wasn’t impossible. If we talked and cooperated with the villagers, we could make it sooner, but it was winter and everyone was busy looking for firewood. So, I’ll put it off until next spring, and today I’ll just do my house and I’ll go look for firewood.

“Sian.”

“Elsia? Elin, are you okay?”

Elthea, who was taking care of Elin, came to see me while I was working.

“Yes. I couldn’t fall asleep until morning because I was so tired, but I fell asleep just now.”

“Phew… I hope you don’t get hurt by this incident.”

“Sorry.”

“Huh?”

Elthea, whose expression darkened, looked at me and said.

“I am truly sorry for the harm my husband caused.”

I was a little irritated by Elthea’s words. I was skeptical at first, but after thinking about it, I realized.

Then he said while glaring at her.

“Hey, Elthea. What are you to me?”

“Yes?”

“What are you asking me?”

“wife, concubine.”

“Okay. Elsia, you are my concubine and my woman.”

I pulled her waist closer and pressed my body against her. Elthea was surprised by the sudden skinship, but I ignored it and grabbed her chin.

“And I am your husband. So Elthea doesn’t have to apologize to me.”

“Well, but… ”

I kissed Elthea, who was anxious about what happened yesterday.

“Don’t worry. I don’t throw my girl away. If you do that again, I’ll be angry.”

“Oh, I understand.”

Perhaps because of my stubbornness or because the forceful kiss killed her, Elthea blushed and avoided my gaze.

I was strangely stimulated by her girlish, weak appearance.

“Elthea, you said Elin was sleeping, right?”

“Yes… I just fell asleep and won’t wake up for a while.”

I touched Elthea’s butt and spoke into her ear.

“Then, let’s make love right now.”

“You mean now?”

“Yeah, I don’t like it?”

“Well, that’s not true, but it’s too much for my family to do in broad daylight… ”

“Don’t worry. Because everyone doesn’t have it.”

Chloe will be resting in the living room, Clia will have gone out to play, Sylvia will have gone to the river to do laundry, and Leon will be working out according to the homework I gave him.

“I’m worried about Xian’s health. You probably didn’t sleep well last night, so don’t waste your time for no reason.”

“Ah, don’t worry. Because I am confident in my physical strength.”

At my words, Elthea seemed to have given up trying to persuade me any more and began to accept my touch.

So the two of us headed to the couple’s bedroom in broad daylight.
