“Oh my.”

Enin expresses a short sentiment.

Wearing black tight-fitting pants and a top, with a uniform top on top.

A woman with long, orange hair like the sunset pouring in from outside the window.

They do not carry separate weapons, but are wearing gauntlets that look a bit more luxurious than ours.

“Tell me where you come from. And if the others block the rush, I’ll finish it off.”

Winnet said that and stood in the very center of the formation.

‘He’s not holding a weapon, so is he like a martial artist?’

I’ve seen a lot of mercenaries who use various weapons, but I’ve never seen a martial artist yet.

I asked Thistle, who had probably met more adventurers than me, if he was wearing normal clothes.

“Thistle. Do all martial artists dress like that?”

“There is no set outfit for adventurers. Still, that person is a bit unique.”

‘Well, other people try to wear at least one more blade, but it’s not common to see clothes like that that are practically naked. I guess I’m a person with those kind of tastes.’

The fact that he is not holding any special weapons means that he has a certain level of confidence, so he looks like that. He is also a high-level adventurer.

“You.”

“Huh? Me?”

Winnet calls me this time.

“Okay, come this way.”

“I don’t like it because I’m anxious.”

He attacked twice, but both attacks hit the middle of the formation.

There’s no guarantee that it will be the same next time, but honestly, I don’t want to stand there this time.

“He will probably attack you again.”

“Don’t be unlucky. Do you have any proof?”

“…I don’t have one, but I’ll say it’s the feeling of an adventurer. So trust me and come this way.”

‘Miss, then I have to go.’

The advanced adventurer used the unscientific basis of senses. If it were me before, I would naturally have scoffed, but here I have no choice but to trust that feeling.

This is a case I’ve seen once before.

Skilled adventurers say that it is too much to call it foresight, but rather something that should be called tact.

It is still not clear how it occurs, but it is quite reliable, so if you listen to the advice of people with good skills, you can often escape from dangerous situations.

A wild animal-like sense that people who have fought many times risking their lives have.

‘That’s probably what’s working now.’

I have no choice but to stand here and get other people involved, so I stand next to Winnet.

“…I’m sorry. I’m a bit clumsy at explaining things to someone.”

“I think so. If you’re sorry, I’ll give you something nice later.”

“Huh? No, it’s a good thing…”

“It’s because of you that I’m being attacked.”

“Uh… no, that’s not true, is it? No, is that right?”

Winnet apologizes and asks if, contrary to his blunt attitude, he is not that rude.

Normally, I would have accepted the apology as is, but thanks to the sensation she felt, it was already confirmed that I was being attacked, so I deliberately blamed others.

However, this person named Winnet was more foolish than I thought and took my words literally.

Still, I soon came to my senses and approached it logically again.

“…But shouldn’t I be thankful for this? Because I told you.”

“Didn’t you ask me to come here to use you as bait? So I should get compensation.”

“Is that so? It’s not. Something is strange…”

Winnet keeps tilting her head as if her mind is confused.

Actually, if I don’t come to the center, other people will get involved, so I was planning to do it eventually, but since the conversation has already flowed like this, I decided to take care of something.

‘If you become an advanced adventurer, there will be a lot of good things.’

I don’t really care about money, but I would like to receive an artifact or something.

The reason why it is better for me now to have useful equipment rather than money is because honestly, there are not many things in the kingdom that can be done with money.

Not only are high-level magic items difficult to obtain with money, but most of them have owners, so the only way is to receive them as a reward for a request, which is far from me. So, even in times like these, try to take care of something.

‘Some people choose to kill and steal, but that’s a bit much.’

Winnet was thinking about something alone and got caught, probably from overload.

“Uh… I guess I was wrong. Um… Then go back later and tell them you’re looking for someone named Winnet at the Adventurer’s Guild.”

“Isn’t there something like a title for a high-level adventurer? There might be someone with a similar name.”

I wanted to be sure and ask because I was worried that the name I was using now might run away because it was an alias.

“Do I have to say it?”

“Otherwise you’ll get confused, right? Wouldn’t it be troublesome if there were rumors that you, adventurer, were eaten?”

“…Now.”

“Yes? I can’t hear you.”

“Intestinal destroyer.”

‘Just don’t listen.’

I was made fun of and ended up with a title that made me fearful of repercussions.

“…That’s definitely not a title you gave yourself, right?”

“I hate it too. Anyway, you can just name it.”

“You must be having a hard time.”

After that conversation, silence begins.

Anyway, if the target is really me, the scope is narrowed.

‘Start with the walls on either side of me, or the floor. It doesn’t seem possible because the ceiling is blocked by a chandelier.’

Narrow the scope and take turns guarding three areas.

Hygenic sends Presbyopia closer to me with a wink.

Noan notices and waits nearby with a huge shield.

At first glance, when I thought that a similar amount of time had passed,

“Left and bottom.”

Deshade spoke and we immediately prepared.

Rattling-

This time, the left side and bottom opened almost simultaneously.

But this time, as I was watching, I knew for sure.

Although the time difference is so small that it is less than a second, the exit door opens first and the entry exit opens later.

‘The exit is from the left, and the direction is towards the floor!’

Get into position quickly.

Winnet is standing behind him.

He lifts Estark and the magic sword and looks straight ahead.

Flash-

The first thing I saw was the few heads left on the front body of the guy. It seems like a few of them fell due to the magic sword attack earlier.

The moment I thought I saw the eye light coming from there in the darkness inside the wall, the mixture came out at extremely fast speed.

A centipede-like mixture that leaps out through the darkness, striking with the halberd first.

“Presbyopia!”

“Yep!”

Noan lifts his huge shield and slams it in front of me.

thud!

Kwaaang-

With the sound of the shield hitting the stone floor, the mixture crashes without being able to slow down.

Jijijijijijik-

The soles of our military boots are pushed away with a loud noise.

Puddeuddeuk-

Noan’s arm, which was directly holding the handle of the shield, cannot overcome the mass, and the bone protrudes through the arm. Still, Noan and I do our best to prevent him from colliding.

And at that time,

“Inhale!”

thud!

Just as it was about to be pushed away, Winnet rolled on the ground and kicked the shield from the inside, causing the mixture to stop momentarily.

“Holy shit!”

“Cling on!”

Hygenic does not miss the moment and runs towards the shield while giving orders to the soldiers.

Soon the rest of the people ran over and supported the shield, but even in that situation, we were pushed back for a long time.

But eventually the guy lost his thrust and stopped.

At the same time, Vincent is the first to dig into the left side of the mixture.

Vincent wraps blue magic around his sword and begins to cut down the body of the mixture.

‘The knight is Kisanga.’

Unlike when I used to cut with a magic sword, I use the sword while moving the muscles infused with magic from within my body, so I cut the enemy into pieces much more efficiently.

At the same time, Hygenic gives an order.

“He stopped! Attack everyone!”

Following his command, all of the people supporting the shield come out from behind the shield and face the halberd wielded by the arms hanging from various parts of the guy’s body.

Thistle slices open the body with a claymore, Ennin crushes the leg with the armor intact with an anvil, and Master deftly cuts out the gaps in the armor with an escutcheon.

“Cheer up! Kill it!”

“It’s truly hideous. It’s a terrible creature.”

Deshade and Peria run away to the wall where the guy’s attacks can’t reach and are watching us.

‘It doesn’t move that fast. It’s worth it.’

All that awaits a cavalry whose charge is blocked is death.

Once it stops charging, its long body appears sluggish, as if it can’t move easily without accelerating.

In addition, several pieces of armor covering the entire body are colliding with each other, preventing it from rotating its body.

It’s a scary tank when it accelerates and rushes, but the moment you stop it, the lower body is useless and can’t do anything.

I don’t know what the person who created this was thinking when he created it, but it ended up being extremely inefficient.

Sooo-

As the mixture begins to cut off its arms and legs one by one, it seems to think that any further loss is not good, so it screams and tries to force its way through us.

However, his path was blocked by an adventurer who, unlike us who were fighting, was preparing something alone.

“Now step back.”

Winnet’s voice came from behind us.

At the sound of that sound, everyone quickly retreats.

Wooow-

Winnet’s gauntlets are glowing blue just like Vincent’s, as if they were imbued with magic.

“Going.”

She ducks for a moment and then jumps out like lightning.

As he jumps out, the tiles on the floor break with tremendous force and he bounces up to waist height.

The blue light of the gauntlet follows Winnet belatedly, leaving a line.

Winnet quickly approached the front of the mixture lined up in a straight line,

thud-

I threw down the gauntlet.

I thought there would be a huge shock, but nothing happened.

Only the heavy sound of armor and gauntlets colliding is heard.

‘Is it really a failure?’

Just as I was wondering if he was a pure fraudster when he said he was a high-level adventurer, the teacher points to Winnet’s gauntlet.

“Good application. Take a close look at the gauntlet.”

The armor at the end of the gauntlet had a small hole in it, and all the accumulated magical power had flowed into it.

“Uh, maybe this.”

Bulging-

Body of bloated mixture.

And the title of Winnett comes to mind.

‘Intestinal destroyer’

What would happen next was certain. The information in my head pictured the future one second later.

“It explodes!!!”

As I hurriedly screamed and ran towards Peria, the others noticed too late and ran away accordingly.

“Uh, huh? for a moment! Stupid brother! What are you doing… hey man!”

He goes behind Peria, hugs her waist tightly, and buries his head in her back.

“Just 10 seconds!”

“No! change! My brother is taller than me!”

All I have now is a desperate desire to avoid that. However, because Peria is struggling, her body cannot be covered.

“Ugh. Release this!”

“Chet. Peria! Stay still!”

Flash!

In the end, the bracelet is used to prevent Peria from moving.

“You crazy bastard!”

Peria’s voice shakes my ears, but it still gives me strength.

‘But I don’t want to be covered in that.’

At some point, Master and Enin also hid behind Deshade. He looked no different from me.

“Why are you doing this all of a sudden?”

Deshade still doesn’t understand the situation.

The people behind Deshade each have something to say.

“Sin, I’m sorry, God!”

“Considering your usual behavior, shouldn’t you accept this much?”

“Look, I don’t think it’s a good idea to use our god as a shield!”

Thistle also said this while bowing his head in the gap between Master and Enin.

And soon,

The moment light leaks through the cracks in the armor, Winnet finishes.

“…Return to its original form.”

Fuuu!

All the joints of the mixture burst and scatter into the air.

Fragments of demon warriors bounce high and scatter.

Ssss-

Black blood, armor fragments, and rotten-smelling chunks of meat decorate the sky.

The arrangement was like looking at the Milky Way.

‘It would have been nice if it had stopped there.’

And from a cosmic perspective, perhaps the stinkiest star cluster falls to Earth as a meteor.

slam-

“Aw bub bub bub.”

A piece of meat fell on Peria’s face, and immediately a huge amount of blood covered everyone.
