“What the hell is that… ”
Janey froze with her eyes wide open. I had similar feelings, although to a lesser extent than her.
I said it was a bird because it flew by flapping its wings, but what can I say… It looked more like a creature from a legend than a bird.
That’s because it looked quite different from the common-sense bird I knew.
‘What bird in the world has three pairs of wings…’ Why is it so big?’
Shinsu is capturing Roland… No, maybe Shinsu is right. It is said that the distinction between divine beasts and demonic beasts is determined by how friendly they are to humans.
If he were to mistake and capture human-like androids for prey, wouldn’t he be closer to a magical beast?
Anyway, that guy flying now is like a huge monster with three pairs of wings, or a total of six wings.
Androids already weigh more than humans due to material issues. An android like that even wore a battle suit, but it was snatched away like that.
‘It’s more shocking than the video of an eagle owl snatching a cat.’
The eyewitness account of the Summoner Guild investigator was not an exaggeration. They said they saw a huge shadow covering the sky. Rather, I was more curious about how he came back alive after seeing that.
quickly asked Maria. I was so anxious that the voice came out spontaneously.
“Is Roland completely incapacitated now?”
-No, that’s… Although the claws got stuck in my shoulder and abdomen, it doesn’t affect my movements. It’s not a fatal malfunction.
It was a calm tone, different from the urgent voice that had just told her that Roland had been kidnapped.
Even though there was no hindrance to his actions, it was strange that he was so calmly caught by the divine beast and flew away. Even if you didn’t notice when you were attacked, you should be able to move well now.
“Then why don’t you rebel? It’s the size of a monster, but if you use a gun or sword, it might be startled and let go. If you climb any higher, it may be difficult to land safely.”
-What the master was aiming for was not the adult body, but the baby of the divine beast. For now, I decided it was right to calmly take it to the nest. If they make a fuss and show caution, it will be difficult to find the nest.
“Roland said that?”
-yes. I also agreed.
Maria had a conversation with Roland over the phone in the brief moment when he was captured. So now I have calmed down again.
This is why it was easier to give orders to the android through Maria. Then, you can convey your opinion in an instant without having to explain it painfully.
‘No matter what, I was kidnapped by such a monster and I can’t believe I’ll take on the role of a location tracker…’ ‘
I don’t know what Shinsu would do if he realized that what he thought was food and caught it turned out to be something like a food replica.
‘If your head blows off, I can’t fix it… ‘Am I that trustworthy?’
Now that I think about it, something came to mind. Roland was the only one who followed me even when I raided the android production factory, even though he knew that humans had EMP weapons.
Of course, at the time, all I did was watch as I wiped out the enemy by myself, meaningless as I had mustered up the courage to chase after them.
In any case, Roland personally proved that it wasn’t just empty words when he said he would help me in real life a while ago.
‘Then Roland’s sacrifice must not be in vain.’
-master? Roland is still alive and well?! No, I was a little hurt, but… !
I ignored Maria’s absurd tone. We had to move quickly.
Although it was said that Roland’s location could be tracked, it was clear that one would have to work hard to follow the bird as it flew through the sky. Roland, whom he was already holding on to, had moved away to a distance that seemed to be about the size of a pea.
If I wasted time, I didn’t know what Shinsu would do to Roland when he arrived at the nest, angry that he couldn’t eat Roland.
“That guy seems to be exactly what we were looking for. If there was another flying monster of that size, there’s no way the guild master wouldn’t have mentioned it.”
“That’s a miracle… ?”
Janey’s eyes wavered as she saw the monster flying, flapping its six wings.
Janey had dealt with many types of monsters, including orcs and forest leopards, but they were all at a level that she could handle lightly.
Then, when I saw that monster that seemed to be almost 10 meters long, I felt like I had entered the world of the tower.
Perhaps she, too, felt the tingling power of Shinsu. There was a possibility because, thanks to me, he had considerable magical ability as a bonus ability.
I put my hand on her shoulder and weakly used my powers.
“Don’t worry. Although it is large and has an unusual appearance, it is ultimately an animal.”
If a dangerous situation arises, all you have to do is cancel the summoning of Janey.
She must have relaxed from the warmth coming through her shoulders, and her stiff face relaxed a little. Although it wasn’t very noticeable.
“… Who said they were worried? It doesn’t look scarier than a mutant.”
“Kkkk… that’s right. That giant mutant was even more disgusting.”
I cleaned up the base camp while watching her act strong. Once I have found my goal, I will never return here again. I planned to return to the village as soon as I finished my business at the nest.
Maria records things like direction and distance on her own, so you don’t have to worry about getting lost.
While clearing the base camp, other Awaken executives who returned after hearing Maria and Roland’s communication were also placed in the inventory. Since I had to move quickly, I planned to take it out again after I found the nest if necessary.
“Let’s go.”
“Yes.”
The direction in which Shinsu flew was across the river. In that case, we also had to follow him and cross the river.
Of course, there was no way there would be a bridge across the river that crossed the middle of the forest, so we had to figure out how to cross the river ourselves.
The river was quite wide, so I don’t know, but it seemed difficult for Janey to jump over it in one leap.
However, if I just went swimming, I didn’t know if the underwater monsters in the water would stay still. Even though she is a fish, I feel bad if Janey gets scratched.
“… … .”
As I quickly scanned the surroundings, I saw a log that I had cut down to secure a view of the sky. I immediately ran over there and put some logs in my inventory.
“When I give the signal, step on the tree and cross.”
“… Okay.”
Janey seemed to understand what I was thinking.
As I took the log out of my inventory, I struck the cut stump with my palm and sent it flying toward the river.
thud!! thud!! thud!!
“Now!”
After receiving the signal, Janey kicked off the floor and quickly ran forward.
The logs flew at different distances and fell into the river, rocking and submerging in the water, then sticking out their heads again.
“Inhale!”
Whiiing!
Janey jumped with enthusiasm and used her special ability to create wind and reduce her weight as much as possible.
Although the log swayed, it was able to support enough weight for Janey to step on it.
The underwater monsters had run away when a large tree suddenly fell from the sky, creating a splash.
“Come over!”
Janey shouted to me as she safely landed on the other side of the river.
Kwaang!!!
I jumped over the river in one go without stepping on any logs. It was thanks to the combination of superhuman strength, the power to amplify it further, and the ability to create explosive driving force.
“… Just step on the log.”
Of course, the recoil caused the soles of the shoes to burst and become tattered. Janey lightly hit me while looking at the shoes that had become the instep covers.
“It’s okay. There are many cases like this, so I bring plenty of extra clothes.”
“No… You just have to be careful not to break it in the first place.”
“But it was cool, right?”
Janey shook her head when she saw me calmly taking out new shoes from the inventory and putting them on.
“Ha… Sometimes you are dependable, sometimes you act like a child. When we worked together as agents, there was a serious part.”
“So you don’t like it?”
“… No, that can’t be.”
She laughs at the mischievous question and lightly kisses my cheek.
“No matter what he does, everything suits Minho well.”
‘Janeie also has a strong bean pod.’
Still, I don’t know what we will experience together in the future, but the thicker and harder the bean pod is, the better.
Maria must have noticed that we were making fun of each other, so she urged us in a blunt tone.
-hey? Even at this very moment, Shinsu is moving away??
‘Are you jealous?’
-What what what?! I beg your pardon? It’s not like that!!
‘Or it’s not. The reaction is intense. It’s suspicious for no reason.’
-Okay… !
Tracking it wasn’t that difficult. Just like when I first entered the forest, I carried Janey on my back, and she used the wind to open a path in front of me.
The thin branches and leaves follow the path of the wind, creating a path like a tunnel. I easily jumped over thick branches and roots.
The divine beast disappeared from sight due to the huge trees that covered the sky, but Roland’s location signal was still detected, so it was okay. On the contrary, it wasn’t a bad thing because we were able to hide our appearance as we chased down the Shinsu. Although they are a bit large and have many wings, birds usually have the characteristic of good eyesight.
How many people did you chase like that?
-The movement has stopped. I think we’ve arrived at the nest.
Maria discovered the location of the nest.
