The world-shaking impact of the collision between a giant golem made of seawater and a mythical white tiger was relayed time and again.

The golem swung its front paws at a speed that was barely visible to the eye and blocked them. The golem’s arms were noticeably slower than the tiger’s front paws, but the golem, created by the combined strength of over a hundred hunters, was able to block the attacks time and time again.

“The attacks seem to be getting heavier and heavier. Is that okay?”

The third mother answered her mother’s question breathlessly.

“It’s because the fur absorbs water… … . As it is large… . The amount of water it absorbs is enormous. The attack becomes heavier in proportion to its weight.”

As he said, the tiger’s front paw, which had initially bounced off, was now stuck in the golem’s arm.

Now, unlike before, Golem had to hit the tiger with his other arm at a good time to push it back.

“But it’s getting slower and slower. Golems have limitations in their movements, so it’s better to slow them down with a white tiger and fight them.”

As he said, Baekho was getting slower and slower. It felt like he was dragging a wet blanket.

“Are you going to yell again?”

“Huh… … … ”

As soon as we heard the white tiger’s growl, the golem wrapped its arms around us.

A thick wall of water that blocks out outside noise.

As the white tiger opened its mouth and roared, the water was torn away as the wall was pushed back in real time.

It was clear that the sound was almost blocked out, but the sound of the guy’s cries lingered in my ears like an auditory hallucination. Now, just seeing the white tiger with its mouth open made my soul tremble.

In fact, people who had calmed down a little because the sound was blocked raised their heads, and as soon as they saw the face of the white tiger across the sea, they crouched down and let out a hissing sound again.

Meanwhile, mother was preparing to shoot her bow again.

And as soon as the golem removed its hand again and prepared for battle, he started firing flaming arrows concentrated around the white tiger’s face.

It was clearly not an attack aimed at the white tiger. The fire arrow exploded with a loud noise as it reached the area around the eyes and ears. It wasn’t as loud as the white tiger’s cry, but it was definitely a strong explosion that made the body tremble.

“Ah… … Rather than hitting directly, you’re focusing on distracting Baekho’s senses.”

The white tiger’s fur was soaked with sea water.

It is difficult to directly hit such a white tiger with a fire arrow.

“It’ll be annoying if your eyes and ears are constantly being disturbed.”

“That’s a good strategy. Keep protecting us like that. I think we can hold out like this.”

At those words, I let out a small sigh inside.

We often refer to this as planting a flag.

It’s similar to a soldier in a war saying something like, “Once this fight is over, I’ll go home and propose to my girlfriend.”

“The guy backs off.”

Baekho jumped backwards greatly to gain some distance.

As my almost distracted body landed on the ground, the ground shook as if an earthquake had occurred.

The white tiger glared at us as if it was going to kill us and shook its body hard. Thanks to this, all the moisture was drained from its wet fur.

“Back to square one… … .”

The third mother tilted her head in confusion at her mother’s words and opened her mouth.

“There’s something strange about the condition. The guy’s energy is fluctuating.”

For a moment, Baekho staggered. Then he opened his mouth wide and vomited out a handful of bright red blood.

It was a huge amount of blood, so much so that it could be seen here.

“It doesn’t look like the wound was caused by our attack… ”

“I think he wasn’t in good shape before the fight. He had a lot of energy, but he felt uneasy, like a time bomb about to explode.”

“Anyway, it’s good news. This isn’t something we can endure, but maybe we can overcome it.”

“Then I guess the tourism development project will go down the drain.”

The mothers’ voices became much softer.

But I still felt an inexplicable ominous feeling.

Even though things were clearly going in our favor, we were not at all reassured.

At that moment, the world began to shake.

It was as if the white tiger was sucking in all the air around it. The surrounding energy was being sucked into the white tiger as if it were a living creature.

“What is that doing?”

“Oh..Mother! Heaven!”

The sky began to crack like cracks in glass.

The sea is churning, creating violent waves, and the earthquakes are becoming so strong that it is difficult to stand.

“Hey…you’re trying to collapse the sinkhole!”

Everyone, including me, froze at the third mother’s words.

“I’m willing to sacrifice my life to destroy this place!”

“Is that possible?”

The third mother shouted urgently at her mother’s question.

“It’s just like the story I heard from my mother when I was little! We have to get out before the sinkhole collapses! If we stay inside, we’ll all die!”

For a moment, my mind went blank.

The path to the exit was blocked by that giant white tiger.

In order to get out, you had no choice but to either defeat the white tiger or go around it far away.

“3rd Unit, stop the tiger! 4th Unit and Construction Guild, run at full speed towards the exit!”

“Wait a minute! Are you saying you want to die with Unit 3 right now!?”

Without answering her mother’s question, the third mother raised Golem.

The golem shrank down a bit, stood up from the sand, and began to stride towards the white tiger, which was gathering energy.

“This is the way to save the most people! I am the commander of this operation, so follow my orders!”

“What the… … . Tsk… … . Unit 4 is running with the Construction Guild members! Drop all your luggage and follow me… … ! ”

That was when.

The moment when mother took up her bow and was about to step forward.

The world was engulfed in bright light.

A bright light suddenly enveloped the entire world, as if a very powerful flash grenade had exploded.

“Everyone stop and release your skills.”

It was a woman’s voice I had never heard before.

It was a loud voice that resonated in my head, but it was not painful to hear, like the roar of a white tiger.

I just felt an unknown strength and will in that voice.

“… … . ”

After the light began to fade, I slowly opened my eyes.

The world, which had been collapsing in real time, had returned to its original state.

The sky that had been cracked, the sea that had been noisily surging, and the earth that had been shaking all became calm as if nothing had happened.

Even the golem that was advancing towards Baekho disappeared without a trace.

“Fortunately, I think I arrived on time.”

I raised my head and looked up at the sky at the very familiar sound.

My brother was floating in the sky, about halfway between Baekho and me.

To be exact, he was smiling while being held in the arms of a woman with golden wings.

“What…what is all this… … . Why is my golem… … ?”

“Jeongseobang!”

“Um…Jeongseobang?”

As the mothers looked in the direction where their brother was, the rest of the people also looked up at that place.

“Ah, nice to meet you, everyone! I’m a Hunter from the Radius squadron~. Don’t worry, I’m here!”

Jiham oppa waves his hand while hugging her in a princess-like pose, as if he finds something so funny.

The sight was so out of place that I absentmindedly pinched my cheek to check if it was a dream.

“Ah… it hurts… ”

“Our Danpung received a call and came to rescue her! Everyone, please take good care of our Danpung!”

At that moment, everyone’s eyes turned to me.

The third mother, who was also heading towards Baekho… .

The people from the 3rd division who were giving strength to the altar… .

The 4th division members who were trying to run to protect the construction guild…

The construction guild people were all looking at my face.

On this vast island, I was the only one with my head down and looking at my feet.

.

.

.

“Dan-ah. Are you hurt anywhere?”

“Oh.. Oppa… … What if you come to me first! Here, you should greet your mother first!”

My brother landed right in front of me with a woman wearing golden wings.

The woman with devil-like wings had separated from her brother and was walking towards the white tiger that had collapsed as if unconscious.

“My woman is the most precious thing to me. You know how well I take care of her.”

“Oh.. Oppa, you’re teasing me right now. You’re just doing it to see me get embarrassed.”

My brother smiled and hugged me.

“There’s that too, but I’m doing this because I’m really glad that you’re safe.”

“… … . ”

As I was feeling a mixture of happiness and confusion, I heard my mother’s voice from behind me.

“Jeongseobang… … No, Jeongjiham Hunter. What the hell is that creature behind you… … . ”

“Oh, hello. This is my new friend, Gold, who I tamed recently.”

“You… tamed me?”

My brother released me from his embrace and walked over to Gold’s side.

And he patted her butt and said.

“Gold, tell me about yourself. I think some people are a little scared of you.”

“Yes, master.”

In an instant, her wings became shards of light and scattered like a mirage. Then, with those shards of light as a background, she lowered her head slightly and continued speaking in a very calm voice.

“I am Gold, the leader of the Amazons. You do not need to be afraid, as I serve you as my master. Unless you order me to… I will not attack you.”

“Leading the Amazons?”

In response to his mother’s question, his brother nodded, patting Gold’s butt as if he was proud of him.

“Our Gold is actually number one in the Amazons. You can think of her as the strongest being. Well, she’s like my pet now.”
