I Became the Snow Woman I Made

Chapter 68

68 – Invasion of the House of the Lord (3)

The first floor of the Snow Castle.

I was regularly knocking on the table where the book was placed.

It’s a habit that comes out when you feel uncomfortable, worried, or awkward, and today was the latter.

Knock-Tdadak-

I looked at the opponent in front of me while savoring the rhythm.

It was Duwade, the Crusader who entered with my permission.

“·······.”

Since I didn’t do anything stupid like making a mess, I was a little sorry to keep it outside.

He was waiting for my words.

The same goes for Nell, Mishra, and Fricke, who came to watch for some reason.

“Dew Wade.”

I tried to ignore it and opened my mouth.

“How do you feel about entering the castle?”

“It is an indescribable feeling. Not only did they provide me with their own meals, but they allowed me to go to their place of residence…!”

Duway’s eyes trembled with emotion.

The words that came from the heart were conveyed enough, and for me, it only gave me goosebumps.

“What about the scenery of the castle! Duwade, I haven’t seen a structure as perfect as this in my entire life. Truly the work of the Almighty—”

“Stop it. I didn’t call you to hear that.”

From noble mtl dot com

I interrupted the loathsome praise.

I still had only told him to ‘come in first’.

The most important thing was the next words.

A temporary decision made after seeing him suffering from anxiety outside. He recited the contents with an ambiguous expression.

“I’ll let you stay as a guest for the time being.”

I don’t know exactly what purpose he came here, but he didn’t seem to do anything bad like anyone said.

Duway’s eyes widened at my declaration.

“······That’s it!”

Unexpectedly, even his body was shaking.

However, I couldn’t have guessed the reaction that followed.

Plump- He knelt down and bowed his head.

“?”

“The castle is ruined!”

In the blink of an eye, his head hit the ground and his posture collapsed.

“??”

“To think that you have made the Buddha, who was not even aware of Quilière’s will, as a guest in your residence… I will definitely do my best to help you with all my heart!”

“·······No.”

“In this harsh world. Master Quilière’s sun-like heart shines as broadly as a ray of light. I can’t fully describe his grace—”

It’s a sudden rush.

I think he’ll die if left outside, so I’m just letting him stay for a while.

Could it be that you understood the phrase “Live forever”?

I couldn’t understand why I was crying so hard.

“Please leave it to me from today! I will clean every nook and cranny of this castle. Not leaving a speck of dust behind-“

“Enough.”

A cool tone cut off his enthusiasm.

Duway hesitated.

“Yes?”

“It’s okay, I’m going out for a while.”

“Uh…”

He looked at me blankly and then stood up.

“Yes. Yes… I will follow your orders. So, to where…?”

“Go to the mountain range. If you see a monster, kill it.”

At those words, the crusader stood out and suddenly regained his energy.

“Chung! This is my specialty. Leave it to me!”

“… That’s right.”

Doesn’t it usually run away when told to catch a monster?

Rather, he seemed to like it more.

Anyway, Dewade left like a storm, and I knocked on the table again.

Knock- Todok-

An insignificant act brought a little rest.

“······Actually, there are no such things as monsters.”

Monsters in the mountains do not come up to the snowfields.

It’s because of his habit, but I just sent him to get some fresh air and clear his head.

Then Mishra, who had been silent, spoke to her.

“You’re a rare sincere person for a human being.”

It was strange that she acknowledged her creation.

I clicked my tongue in my heart.

“Where are you going?”

“······· Huh?”

However, Mishra was taken aback by my reaction.

She soon changed her words.

“It must have been a misunderstanding. You’re stupid like a foolish human being.”

“·······?”

“It’s not beyond the limits of the species. It’s a pity… I guess I’ll have to finish making an igloo.”

Shortly thereafter, Mishra climbed out of her window and escaped.

He seemed to be engrossed in the igloo for quite some time.

I stared at the window sill and then turned to Nell, who had a bewildered face.

“Why don’t you go help too.”

“Huh? Is that so?”

“Yes.”

She asked, rolling her eyes as if it wasn’t bad.

“What are you trying to do?”

“This.”

She pointed to a book on the table with a wink.

Muttering ‘Ah’, Nell approached the window frame and jumped over it.

“Have fun~ I won’t disturb you!”

“·······.”

Why is everything going over there?

Leave the door intact.

He let out a shallow sigh and picked up the book.

“The adventures of a young siren…”

It was a tribal name that I knew openly.

It’s kind of interesting when it comes to similarities with Earth. I changed my mood and turned the bookshelf.

***

The Devil’s Land is a good place in a bad sense with only the heinous conditions such as barren soil, various natural disasters, and the colony of high-ranking monsters.

The Saints’ Association was attacked by monsters several times.

Kieheek——!

Monsters with bizarrely twisted shapes.

They ranged from insects such as praying mantises and butterflies to animals such as bears and tigers.

As monsters of the Ice Mountains, they were all formidable monsters, but this time the opponent was bad.

Ooooo!

aaa!

Hundreds of dead soldiers who lost their intelligence in exchange for strength.

Under the leadership of the commander, they exerted their full potential.

“Leave the vigilant! Don’t chase the runaway!”

Pushuk!

Adaine shouted as she pierced the saber-toothed tiger’s forehead with her hand.

Zehak’s voice, with the addition of ‘Cheongchung’, could strike a command into the brains of the dead.

“No time to procrastinate here!”

Spoken words——!

As if answering, the dead groaned, biting, crushing, and moving on.

Surprise tends to work when you don’t notice. Now that they have infiltrated the Demonic Realm, it is a race against time.

In an instant, a field of snow spread before their eyes as they rushed up.

A pure white snowy field.

We reached the final battleground.

“···Arrival. This is the snowfield you have only heard about.”

“It’s a place where you’ll freeze to death. Just right for that girl, Quillier.”

Adain agreed with Matren’s words.

The goddess Qulière, as cold as ice.

He narrowed his brows and looked around.

The view is narrow due to a thick snowstorm.

“A goddess is staying here somewhere. Everyone, don’t let go.”

“It should be.”

“I know!”

Matren, Behelak, and Zehak all expressed their approval.

It was the moment when Adain, who had nodded, took a step back.

Saaa─

Suddenly, a strong wind broke through the blizzard and swept away the snow that was getting in the way.

Then, a pure white castle appeared ahead.

“Hmm?”

It seems to have been hidden like a background prop behind a curtain.

Clearly suspicious, deformed buildings… Or something more irritating than that.

A piece of white armor floated in the middle of a gray blizzard.

“… That can’t be.”

As I guessed, when I looked closely, it was a stopped person.

Like us, he seemed to be keeping an eye on us.

Adaine raised her hand.

“Stop. There are people over there.”

“People?”

“No, I don’t know if it’s human… But at least it doesn’t look like a goddess.”

Adain narrowed her eyes and looked at the movement of the armor.

Are you the servant of the goddess? But isn’t it an appearance that is too far away from this snowy field?

Of course, it didn’t matter anyway.

All living things here will be enemies anyway.

“We’re marching to that castle! All-army attack—”

It was the time when he belatedly gave the order to attack.

The armor is gone.

“!”

The moment Adaine hurriedly looked around.

I heard something smashing nearby.

Peruk-!

The dead with a sunken head collapsed.

Duwade glared at the intruders with hostility.

“The dead… And the cultists. Don’t ask how they got here.”

The strongest crusader chewed on his anger and grabbed his mace.

“…Everyone won’t be able to return alive.”

His feeling of being allowed as a diner had reached the heavens until just now, and that’s why he hated those who disturbed him even more.

The snow, burnt with energy, tore his patience.

“I’ll cut off all those dirty feet!”

An angry Duwade jumped into the colony of the dead. At first glance, it seemed like an act of suicide, but his strengthened body and bursting divine power erased any doubts.

The first obstacle.

Adain, who bit his lip, generated magic.

“Matren!”

“I know… I have!”

His vortex has been amplified with the support of ‘Matren, the Wind Power’.

Enormous magic attacked the Crusader under Adain’s control.

“·······!?”

Surrounded by the disease of the dead, Duwade had no time to escape. There were numerous flaws in his armor that allowed direct hits.

“There is only one enemy. Drive on! Surround and kill!”

The formation rebuilt by the Seven Apostles effectively entangled the Crusader.

It was unreasonable for even a paladin to deal with all of these strong people.

“Wow…! These maggots…!”

The time when Duwade vomited hatred and burned the will to fight.

The ground shook and a roar rang out.

─────!

Kung! Cooong! Thud!

A huge silhouette revealed in a snowstorm.

Silence like the night before the storm.

Eventually, the moment the whole thing manifested, the eyes of the death squad were filled with astonishment.

“That’s…!”

“It’s a giant!”

The majestic existence with pale skin reminded me of the hemp water in the legend.

A sad and intimidating pressure filled the hall.

“…Could that even be the goddess’s servant?”

As if responding to Adain’s nervousness, the giant began to rush forward.

Kung! Khuong- kung!

As the heavy body made a leap forward, Adain shouted.

“The giant is coming! Hold your formation!”

Kwajik—!

At that moment, the crushing sound was heard.

It was the work of a crusader who fought a fierce battle with the dead.

“… It’s trouble back and forth.”

But I can’t help it.

I was already prepared that it would not be an easy fight.

He gathered his demonic energy and clashed head-on with the giant.

─────!

A giant’s kick that is deadly with each shot.

Adain did not want to become a ghoul yet, so he did his best to resist.

Having served as the Seven Apostles for a long time, his potential has exceeded the realm, and he was able to avoid being overwhelmed by giants.

Thanks to Zehak’s morale boost, Baktu unfolds while forgetting about fear.

However, the ordeal of the death squad did not end here.

The two women arrived late.

“·······.”

Mishra, who ran to find the igloo first, hardened after seeing her whole area.

Nell immediately behind also stood still as if frozen.

A momentary agitation like eternity.

Warak- The faces of the two were distorted.

First of all, Nell gnashed his teeth.

“These cockroaches····· will be screwed if they lose their boss.······Where is this place?”

The identity of the disgusting intruders was obvious.

Anger-filled eyes swept the area.

“Do you really want to die?”

“Dare to take the owner’s land…”

Mishra trembled as she clenched her fists.

The rage that crossed her critical point squeezed her insides like a grip.

“She is a fool by nature. What use would she have to her confidant who couldn’t even fulfill her duties…”

Did I lose my guard because the number of people has increased recently?

I hated myself.

Nell grinding her teeth and Mishra shaking her fists.

After a fleeting moment, two women intervened in the melee.

Nell bursts blood magic without delay and something flies above it.

Goooooh—!

The seven apostles saw it, and despair dwelled in their eyes.

The dragon king, who revealed his body, ran through the sky at high speed. Then he turned around and let out his breath vertically.

Quada da da da——!

The drop point is in the middle of the death squad.

A mass of formidable power tore the dead like paper, and Adain shouted like a scream.

“No way!”

The disease of the dead was rapidly decreasing.

It is a situation where you are pushed helplessly before you even try to do something.

His eyes gleamed warmly.

“No! No! I haven’t even seen a goddess yet-“

─f*ck!

An ominous noise then heard.

Matren, who collapsed at the sight of looking back, was caught.

The cause of death was Duwade’s mace.

Whiiyiing——!

She’s dead, but she’s not dead.

The wind ghoul took the place where the fire of life had gone out.

Consuming the Seven Apostles too quickly. Blood leaked from Adain’s chewed mouth.

“… sh*t!”

There was no hope at this rate.

It is annihilation. It was an ambitious raid, but it was hit by an unexpected counterattack.

There was no way he would perish without leaving anything behind.

He commanded it with a feeling that pierced his heart.

“Retreat! Retreat! We must get out of the snow!”

“Okay! Retreat. Retreat!”

The power of the goddess was stronger than I imagined.

She didn’t know if she would get another chance if she ran away, but she had to avoid it.

You must not lose everything in a battle with no chance.

Tadadadak—!

The death squad hurriedly left the battlefield and fled to the mountains. There are many monsters there, so it should be able to use it in reverse.

······ But they didn’t know.

That the winter’s ordeal has only just begun.

From noble mtl dot com

Immediately after the remnants of the Saints Church stepped on the blue-grey mountain range.

Beyond that, a black knight appeared.

“······Hmm?”

A man in black armor that contrasts with a Crusader.

Chandrapale glanced around and quietly unsheathed his sword.

Uh uh uh uh–

She could have lived if she just passed by.

However, the unfortunate dead couldn’t make a proper judgment. It rushed towards the ‘living man’ who appeared out of nowhere.

“You look like humans…But you are monsters.”

The dark knight muttered lowly and swung his sword,

Demons also have a Japanese style

Ghost Demon

At once, the heads of dozens of dead fell.

The remaining three Seven Apostles held their breath.

“···! Mu, mu, what is it?! What is that monster…?”

“This is… This can’t be…”

Adain’s expression changed completely after hearing Zehak’s agitation in one ear.

Realization settled on his expression, followed by panic.

A seizure-like agitation that has never been seen before.

He let out a suppressed astonishment.

“It’s the god’s trap!”

“······Trap!?”

At Behelak’s question, Adain shouted even more forcefully.

“Yes! Quilière… She predicted everything! She has already foreseen this far!

“······That, that!”

Behelak’s face was full of disbelief, no, he didn’t want to believe it.

Adain, who was thrilled like a mathematician who had seen the solution to a difficult problem, looked directly at the Castle of Eyes on the other side.

His already fully convinced of his guess, he was overcome with terror.

“What kind of expression is the goddess in there?”

Will you be watching us?

Are you looking at us dying with a cold face as usual?

I couldn’t know anything anymore, and I didn’t have the confidence to know.

The only thing left on the battlefield where the escape route was blocked was death at the end of the struggle.

“······It’s like hell. Is this the price you pay for antagonizing the gods?”

The front and back were blocked by monsters beyond recognition, and both sides were hopeless.

The retreat does not work.

If that’s the case, I had to inflict even a small, weak blow.

Raising his head, Adain looked at Behelak.

“Behelak! You go in!”

“What?!”

“To the castle of God over there! It’s possible with your skills!”

“…That’s it.”

It was possible.

A robe with two intertwined circles with intricate patterns. Because his ability wearing it was called ‘space movement’.

It wasn’t difficult to break in there.

The problem is that you can only move alone.

“It’s up to you! Give God our resistance, our will!”

“······Damn it. Got it!”

Behelak also understood the current situation.

There is no other way, and the only thing you can do is yourself. After accepting it, he activated his ability while leaving behind the collapsed battle situation.

Chee Yiing─

A consciousness that is transferred at the same time that space is destroyed.

It was the first black sword to invade the castle of snow.

***

Palak─

The first floor of the snow castle where only the sound of turning the bookshelves flows quietly.

A gentle breeze blowing through the window blew through her bluish-white hair.

Doesn’t that bother me?

Quilière was engrossed in reading with a womanly face.

“·······.”

Its graceful appearance caught the attention of freekes. Dozens of spirits gathered around her could not take their eyes off her, and they were unusually quiet.

The same was true of the many Yeti on the outskirts.

Palak again─

Once again, the bookshelves fall over.

What kind of interesting scenes did you come up with?

A thin smile appeared on Quilière’s lips.

“·······.”

The spirits were not curious about the contents of the book.

Just a rare sight that I hadn’t seen in a long time, her face was etched into my retinas for a long time.

An afternoon that is like a cradle of tranquility.

In an instant, the distorted space broke the silence.

Chow ah!

The friques flinched, and Quilière raised his eyes. The void shuddered.
