Serina and Roderick went up to their room on the upper floor of the tavern and unpacked.

    In the simple room, the two sat facing each other across a table.

    “What was that old man talking about earlier?”

    Serina glanced at the blizzard raging outside the window.

    “Who knows… he seemed crazy. Probably just nonsense.”

    “I’ve heard rumors about it.”

    Roderick said, resting his chin on his hand.

    “The rumors about the Witch of the North.”

    Then he grinned, staring intently at Serina’s face.

    “Could it be that you’re so beautiful that they call you a Witch?”

    Serina glared at him as if she was dumbfounded.

    “Is this the time for jokes?”

    Serina ignored Roderick’s joke, but inwardly, she recalled the old man staring straight at her and shouting ‘Witch.’

    It wasn’t just nonsense; he seemed genuinely terrified after seeing her face.

    An ominous feeling swept through Serina’s mind.

    ‘Could that Witch be…’

    Just then, a commotion erupted outside.

    Soon after, the commotion grew louder with heavy thumping footsteps.

    -Monsters! Prepare yourselves!

    Through the window, militiamen were hurriedly climbing onto the palisade, firing arrows.

    Serina and Roderick immediately burst out of their room and raced towards the village entrance.

    Amidst the swirling blizzard, massive shadows were faintly visible.

    About ten gigantic Monsters were cutting through the white snowfield, approaching.

    Sasquatches.

    “Damn it! There are too many!”

    “The arrows aren’t working!”

    The fierce wind weakened the power of the arrows fired by the militia.

    It was difficult to penetrate the Sasquatches’ thick skin.

    The Sasquatches relentlessly charged towards the palisade.

    Kukwakwang-

    With a deafening roar, the palisade shook violently.

    “We can’t let the palisade fall!!!”

    The militia’s urgent cries rang out.

    If the palisade fell now, the village would undoubtedly be devastated.

    Even if they managed to defend it, it would take a long time to rebuild the palisade.

    Roderick and Serina didn’t hesitate; they leaped over the palisade and rushed outside.

    “Is this your first real battle… will you be alright?”

    Roderick asked Serina briefly, looking at her.

    Serina wore a relaxed smile.

    “Don’t you remember… when we slaughtered those Trolls?”

    “Y-Yeah. But still, fall back if it seems too dangerous.”

    Serina followed Roderick, who was taking the lead, and subtly adjusted the String Panties that were riding up her hips with her fingers.

    “Hmph, who are you worried about?”

    In the blizzard, Roderick’s sword gleamed.

    With a shout, he charged towards the foremost Sasquatch.

    The massive Monster’s heavy fist came flying.

    Roderick skillfully twisted his body and swung his sword.

    The blade emitted a blue Aura.

    With a sharp tearing sound, he deeply slashed the Sasquatch’s thigh.

    Ughhhhh-

    With a painful scream, the Sasquatch staggered.

    At the same time, he felt a strong vibration in his grip.

    “Its hide is like iron plate.”

    Roderick readjusted his grip on the sword.

    It was a different kind of defense than the skin of a Troll.

    If a Troll’s skin was like rough rock, a Sasquatch’s hide was like cold steel itself.

    He easily dodged the attack of the Sasquatch, whose movements had been slowed by the cut on its leg.

    He lowered his body and stabbed its abdomen.

    The Sasquatch, its abdomen pierced, soon collapsed.

    “Ha, no time to catch my breath.”

    Two more Sasquatches were approaching from behind the fallen one.

    While Roderick faced the Sasquatches, Serina ran towards the palisade in the opposite direction.

    An unreadable flush had risen on Serina’s face, visible beneath her robe.

    Her smooth legs, exposed through the robe, kicked off the snowfield and soared.

    The inside of her thighs was glistening with moisture.

    Thwack-!

    A sound like a bursting drum echoed, striking the Sasquatch’s jaw head-on.

    It was an impact that was hard to believe came from a human leg.

    The Sasquatch’s massive body was thrown backward, screaming.

    A momentary fear flashed in its white eyes as it screamed.

    Serina’s body was enveloped in a faint purple energy.

    As her Pleasure Attribute leveled up, it seemed to become easier to handle Mana.

    But as easy as it became to handle, the stimulation felt even stronger.

    The wave of Pleasure that traveled up her spine tickled Serina’s brain and activated every cell in her body.

    The stronger the Pleasure stimulation, the more her physical abilities were amplified.

    The power in her legs became even more potent, and her agility became as delicate as a cat’s.

    It was a paradoxical experience where the stronger her body became, the more blurred Serina’s consciousness became.

    Serina approached the staggering Sasquatch.

    The Monster instinctively cowered, overwhelmed by Serina’s power.

    Serina unleashed a fist wrapped in purple Aura on the Sasquatch’s massive head.

    “That’s right. Ahh.”

    Crack!

    “Why. Ahng.”

    Crack!

    “Come barging in. Hick!”

    Crack!

    “Such bullshit! Haaaang.”

    Thwack!

    The sound of her fist hitting the Monster’s head was like the sound of a rock breaking.

    The Sasquatch’s massive body collapsed like a waterfall.

    For a moment, a purple light flashed in the Sasquatch’s eyes.

    Soon, the madness in its eyes gradually disappeared, and a confused look was evident.

    The Sasquatch no longer charged and hesitated in front of Serina.

    As Serina took a step forward, the Sasquatch fell backward and sat down.

    “Huh? Do Monsters feel fear too?”

    Serina passed by the fallen Sasquatch and moved on to the next.

    Her movements were much faster than before, like a shadow cutting through the blizzard.

    Every Sasquatch her fist touched was sent flying like a piece of paper.

    Each time, the madness disappeared from the Monsters’ eyes, and a look of fear was evident.

    The Pleasure Attribute grew stronger as Serina’s String Panties rode up higher.

    Her body unleashed extreme power in a Pleasure that felt as if it was burning.

    Roderick was speechless at the sight unfolding before his eyes.

    Sasquatches were being knocked away by Serina’s single punch.

    The fact that they were even losing the will to fight and prostrating themselves was beyond common sense.

    Roderick rubbed the bruise on his eye again.

    Wow-

    As the Sasquatches lost their strength and collapsed, the militiamen who had been defending the village, as well as the villagers who had been hiding in fear, burst out with cheers and rushed out.

    The militia captain, who was the first to run over, grabbed Roderick and Serina’s hands and repeatedly bowed his head.

    “How can we ever repay this kindness…”

    “It’s nothing.”

    Roderick smiled, wincing at his bruised eye.

    The villagers led the two heroes to the tavern.

    The tavern owner shouted with a bright smile.

    “It’s on me tonight. Everyone, drink to your heart’s content!”

    The festival in the blizzard began.

    The militiamen took turns approaching, offering drinks.

    “Heroes! Have a drink here!”

    “Please accept a drink from me too!”

    Serina accepted a glass.

    It was her first time drinking alcohol.

    She cautiously took a sip, and a bitter taste lingered on her tongue.

    “Ugh, why is it so bitter?”

    But soon, after two sips, three sips, her body became languid, and a strange tipsiness came over her.

    Her expression relaxed, and the tension in her stiff shoulders eased.

    “Kuh. So this is why people drink?”

    Now, Serina herself picked up the bottle and urged people to drink.

    The militiamen and villagers were considerate of Serina, who was enjoying herself while wearing a robe.

    They didn’t bother to wonder why she was covering her face; they simply wanted to raise a toast with the benefactor who had saved them tonight.

    As time passed, Serina’s tongue slowly began to slur.

    At that moment, Roderick was arm-wrestling with the villagers on one side.

    “Hey, you’re pretty strong, aren’t you?”

    A burly young villager grabbed Roderick’s arm and gritted his teeth.

    It was when the struggle reached its peak.

    Suddenly, the young man’s strength slipped away, and his arm simply went over.

    “Hey, what’s that? I need to work out more.”

    Roderick looked at the young man with a triumphant expression.

    However, the young man’s face was blank and unfocused.

    His gaze was fixed on one spot in the air.

    Roderick followed the young man’s gaze and turned to the side.

    And at that moment, Roderick’s eyes also widened.

    There….

    Serina, who had thrown off her robe, was pouring a bottle of alcohol straight into her mouth, dressed in black combat attire that revealed her figure.

    Reddened cheeks, unfocused eyes, and a dazzling face revealed through disheveled hair.

    Her voluptuous figure was even more clearly highlighted beneath the black combat attire.

    Even her drunken, disheveled appearance exuded a fatal beauty.

    All the conversations in the tavern stopped as if by magic.

    People froze, each holding a glass or in the middle of an arm wrestle, and stared blankly at the beautiful Serina.

    No one could open their mouth.

    Their eyes were filled with awe and admiration.

    Serina felt that it had suddenly become too quiet.

    “Why is it so quiet? Did a ghost pass by?”
