chapter 129
129 – Kraken (5)
No matter how much information is exchanged to plan a strategy,
It is faster and more accurate to actually experience something than to discuss it on a desk.
With that in mind, I went to check the place where the ghost Kraken was located.
-Save me!
-I don’t want to die! I don’t want to die!
-Please, save me from this hell!
‘Even after seeing it for the first time in a long time, I feel like my five organs and six parts are all twisted.’
The foam-like face on the Kraken’s body suddenly bursts, screaming for help.
Obviously, it’s normal if you can’t hear any sound because you’re underwater, but
Isn’t it a sound that travels through the air?
Their voices were heard very clearly.
“First, collect information.”
Check what hasn’t been discovered yet,
Immediately take out the tablet and take a picture of the Kraken.
Strength – 579
Agility – 310
mana – 177
Durability – 416
Skills – 17 skills under
‘f*ck.’
I wonder if I can deal with this now.
It wasn’t like this even when fighting in the middle of the original story.
At that time, it was about half of what it is now, so I was able to do it somehow.
But the current guy is weak enough to fall far short of what we were in our prime.
If it were twice my ability level, it would have been worth it.
This is impossible to even attempt.
Albert, are you planning to kill me?
If not,
It makes no sense to give such a request.
‘Should I use it?’
If you just use the ticket here and call the prisoner, you might be able to solve the problem.
But 10 minutes.
A monster that can destroy a high-class magician with a single wave of its hand like killing an ant must be released for 10 minutes.
Do you take that risk and give up the kingdom of Atlantis?
“Hey, what are you thinking about?”
“… Not really.”
Rosemari, who is with Zero, speaks through magic.
It is a useful magic, but
You cannot use other magic while using it,
It is said that communication is cut off if you go beyond about 40m.
If I were to go into battle, I would easily cross 40m.
“Let’s go back first. “There’s nothing I can do if I stay here anyway.”
For now, I have chosen to retreat.
For now, this is the best and only choice.
If you catch his eye for no reason, you won’t be able to run away.
More than anything, if you fight with Rose Marie, it is 100% obvious that you will become a burden.
“No!”
But does our lump of nuisance hope for such a future?
He immediately raised objections to my judgment.
“Why should I run away when the enemy is right in front of me?”
“Then you go and fight!”
“There’s no way I can do it! “If it was okay, I wouldn’t have asked for help!”
Yes, that’s great.
A b*tch who can’t do anything and only needs help.
But since Zero is by my side, I guess I can force it.
Sending a signal to Zero to return.
Zero’s gaze was looking in a direction other than me.
If you’re not Rosemary, you can’t hear me, so I told you to look this way if you can.
Why are you looking at the other side when you can’t even get a signal? .
‘No way….’
“Oh, that’s right. If you were around, you could hear me….”
“Why are you saying that now?”
Cow!
The Kraken, a vengeful spirit that had already noticed our presence, was right in front of us.
I succeeded in quickly avoiding it using magic, but
This merely averted the immediate crisis.
The eyes of the empty vengeful kraken are turned in this direction.
Now that they’ve already captured me, there’s no way it can end like this.
“I’m going to sashimi you someday!”
Crying out inaudible threats,
I avoided the attacks of the vengeful Kraken that flew in succession.
It is huge, reaching nearly 2000m.
Just by swinging the leg, a huge air current was created in the deep sea.
In the unfavorable situation of being underwater,
Isn’t it shameful to create ocean currents that can make you unable to control your body?
Although the current magical power is high, it does not mean that it can be used endlessly.
If you keep avoiding it, eventually the magic power to maintain the shield will disappear.
It was expected that the body would be crushed.
In that case, you have to defeat him before that or run away.
The former is impossible with my skills.
Then the only thing left is to run.
“If that were possible, I would have done it a long time ago.”
Even if you run away like this, you will be dragging the vengeful Kraken back to the kingdom.
At least we have to get out of his sight.
“Ugh!”
The legs of the vengeful Kraken swinging through the strong current.
Even if you only focus on avoiding it,
It was not enough to completely avoid it.
I lost my balance to the point that the world shook just by passing by.
If we continue like this, we will distance ourselves from the Kraken as much as possible.
We need to improve our posture.
But how long do you have to run before it’s okay?
If you run with those many legs, you will quickly catch up.
What on earth should I do…? .
“Hmm?”
How far did he run away for his life?
Suddenly the intimidating feeling behind me disappeared and I turned around.
The Kraken looked this way, unable to move far from where it first was.
It’s as if you can’t go beyond the border.
‘Barrier? No, that doesn’t make sense.’
That is definitely a place where we also set foot.
That means only the Kraken cannot pass by.
Realistically, it is impossible to create a barrier that can’t be destroyed by only one life, and not even by the vengeful Kraken.
That is impossible even if a great wizard who made a mark in history comes.
“Then why…?” . Uh?”
Suddenly, I looked at the Kraken from afar.
A soft blue light came into view from underneath the Kraken.
“… “Let’s go back first.”
Seeing as I can’t escape from that place,
Even if I go to the kingdom, I probably won’t follow you.
‘But did Zero run well?’
Rosemary is really good, but
Zero is very worried.
I prayed for safety and headed back to the kingdom of Atlantis as quickly as possible.
***
“It’s hard!”
“Are you back, master?”
“Yes, you are safe.”
When I returned to my accommodation,
Zero greeted me warmly as if nothing had happened.
And today’s troller suddenly said he was tired and gave him a light shrimp cracker in response to his tantrums.
“My waist! The royal back is broken!”
“It’s okay. “They say that even if you break your back these days, it will heal quickly.”
“Kwaaak!”
Anyway, he is a player who only causes unnecessary trouble.
I just went there to do some reconnaissance,
The division arose because he was with Rosemary.
If the vengeful Kraken had continued to chase us, we would have become trash in the sea by now.
I get angry thinking that it’s all because of the damn fish.
“… Hey, from now on, ask me honestly.”
“How dare you talk to the royal family like that! “How cruel!”
“Here’s a good raw fish knife….”
“If you want anything, I’ll give it to you, whether it’s liver or gallbladder!”
Now you’re a little more obedient.
With Dain Slife next to him, which he had brought out to threaten,
I leaned forward and asked Rose Marie a question.
“Do you know what the Kraken is aiming for?”
“……….”
He seems to know something.
If you didn’t know, you wouldn’t have avoided eye contact.
It seems like I don’t have any intention of telling you briefly, so let’s touch the Dyne Slope that was next to us.
Rosemary, who was pale, finally surrendered and told everything.
“That is the ruins where our mermaid people’s ancestors sleep.”
“In one word, it means a grave.”
But why can’t the Kraken escape from there?
I heard Rose Marie’s story,
Rather than solving the doubts, they only increased.
Rosemary, who had been hesitating, looked at him with solemn eyes as if she had decided on something and opened her mouth.
“In fact, there is magical power made of liquid within the bodies of mermaids. And when it sheds tears and comes into contact with air, it becomes solid.”
Her explanation suddenly reminded me of the tears she had shed.
Tears as beautiful as jewels.
I had doubts about it, but it didn’t seem to have anything to do with the Kraken, so I didn’t pay much attention to it.
But this was not the end of Rosemary’s explanation.
“And when the mermaids die, all the magical energy inside their bodies comes out. And it slowly becomes solid. However, the volume is greatly reduced.”
Her explanation gave me goosebumps for a moment.
“Didn’t you just say that the ruins were a tomb?”
“That’s right. “It is not the tomb of an ordinary mermaid, but the tomb of a former royal family famous for its vast magical power.”
That means,
That means it is not an ordinary grave.
It is a treasure trove containing enormous magical power that will prolong the life of the vengeful Kraken.
“We call it the Mermaid’s Jewel and designated it as a national treasure. “That’s why my father refused your help.”
If a human is discovered to have such a treasure,
It is a natural result that war breaks out.
If you do something wrong, a future will arise where the mermaid’s jewel will be used to destroy the earth.
I think that’s why he hid it from me, a human being.
“It’s originally top secret, but I can trust you and say it. “It’s not because I give in to threats or because I don’t want to die!”
“……….”
This time, I couldn’t say anything because I threatened him.
Thanks to you, I found out why the Kraken couldn’t escape.
If you use it well,
You can also make a ghost kraken or something like that.
But to do that, you need proper strategy and hands.
“……….”
“Why do you look at me like that? I said everything I could say. Really! “Why are you suddenly smiling!”
At first I thought it was useless.
The more we talk, the more things come out like an onion.
If I had helped from the beginning, things would have been easier, but even this much is a blessing.
“Hey!”
Tap!
Let’s look at Zero while holding on to Rose Marie’s shoulder.
Zero nodded at her, saying he had already finished preparing.
“What are you doing now? Are you really trying to attack me? Like erotic comics? Like an erotic comic?”
“That’s not it.”
What kind of expression am I making right now?
When Rose Marie saw my face, she screamed and her shoulders shrank.
“Let’s get someone from your father.”
If you don’t have work, just take it.
Isn’t that a great idea?
