We Defeated the Demon and Disbanded Without Any Conflict

83 – risk exclusion

It was a very relaxing day.

A day where you wake up, tell O’Drox’s wife a little about preparing ingredients and cooking, and then take a leisurely break after eating.

It didn’t stop me from going out for a walk, but if I just tried to do adventure work, O’Drox would notice me like a ghost and block the door.

I’m getting past it! Standing solemnly while revealing the spirit of ”, I had no choice but to curl my tail and suck my fingers or side inside the house.

It’s cold outside and it’s snowing, so it’s not bad to stay at home, but it’s a good experience to do missions that can only be done in the North.

“I’m going out for a while. Should I stay here instead of going somewhere?”

“Ah, yes…”

“I’m going out for a while too. I hope you don’t even think about going out.”

“Uh, yes.”

both went out I don’t know why, but I beg you to never go outside.

I was going to be alone anyway, so I took off my bandages and looked out the window, but all I could see was the snowy landscape. Of course, that didn’t mean I hated or got tired of the scenery. It changed emotionally, so I wanted to see it for a long time.

He hummed and sang along with the atmosphere. Thanks to practicing dancing and singing in my own way, I came up with a song that I think is quite listenable. ..maybe.

The atmosphere of them saying ‘stay here’ was serious, so this time I decided not to mess around and stay still. I wondered what kind of things Odrox had, but I didn’t act because I was afraid of the future.

For some reason, it seems that it takes a long time to wait in the carriage, but I am used to killing time like this.

Watching the bonfire burning in the warm room, I was soaked in emotion.

Continental Shield, Odrox.

He began to explore the mountains clenching his teeth, holding a huge shield that covered half of his body and a greatsword that was so large and heavy that many people would not be able to hold it fully even if he held it with both hands.

As long as his comrades were here, he had to thoroughly rule out any risk factors. He even brought up his wife’s cooking skills to give him a break, so he had to find and eliminate the elements that would make his comrades uneasy.

Rest is important. This skirmisher must have been overtaxing his body without realizing it. It’s not just that you roll your body and do something that eats up your mind. Of course, that is the main item.

The quality and length of sleep, the imbalance in nutrient intake, the uncomfortable position, etc., there were countless things to think about the behavior included in the word overwork.

Should I say it’s a side effect from his life so far, Ron tends to have trouble sleeping deeply. Just hearing the sound of dripping water close by is enough to open your eyes.

If you are constantly moving your body in such a light sleep state, you will need to give your body and mind a good rest for at least a few days.

─Kyaaa!!

A primate monster clad in fur as white as snow rushed at him.

It was a wandering monster that did not reside in the labyrinth.

Odrox raised the huge sword with only the strength of his arm, without recoil.

It was quite a threatening sight to see the covered eyes and the tip of the sword reflecting the sunlight, but this monster didn’t seem to feel any threat to its life when it saw it.

Thick, tough skin, dense, elastic muscles. With these two things, it seemed like he could overcome any enemy.

The monster, believing in what he had, rushed at him.

And as his figure got closer, I felt a sense of intimidation that I did not know, so I put my foot forward and tried to stop. However, due to inertia, the speed does not stop abruptly, but only slowly slows down.

Like a customer waiting for her turn, the monster approached and looked up at the man in front of her eyes.

‘I looked up.’

I was able to take pride in having a large skeleton. Compared to other monsters, it was different from the eye level. Due to the difference in physique and overwhelming strength, that monster was able to consolidate its position here. But this time it was different. A feeling of intimidation seemed to wrap around her body and squeeze it tightly.

The instinctive fear he would have experienced when another monster stood in front of him began to dominate his mind.

different.

Something was different.

It felt like being a prey in front of a predator.

The huge sword that was being held up hadn’t fallen yet, but like him, his own feet hadn’t fallen either.

Overwhelmed. Just a series of movements of raising the sword hardened the body of a monster without intelligence.

After a very short time passed and the stiffened body loosened up a little, the monster rolled its eyes. The first thing those eyeballs caught was a huge blade embedded in the floor covered in steaming blood.

─Kryuk..

I let out a final word.

The monster’s body split left and right.

Cracked intestines and blood burst out a beat later and soaked the white snow.

Odrox continued his search without examining the corpse of such a monster.

They scoured the mountains and shook the caves. I purposely fell into the abyss and checked everything there, just in case I didn’t know. It was more like something he was obsessively doing, rather than an attitude towards his former comrades and comrades-in-arms.

Quickly subdue monsters in the mountains and small labyrinths. The action, which seemed to never stop, stopped when the magic stone for communication on his waist began to shine.

After a unilateral slaughter in the center of the unknown labyrinth, he sat on top of a mountain made up of the corpses of monsters and looked at the flickering mana stone. It seemed that the word slayer was more appropriate than the title of continental shield.

I didn’t care about the fishy smell that came from the flowing river of blood and put magic on the spot. Along with the crackling sound, a noise mixed with noise was heard from the magic stone.

[ah. Can you hear me? Um… Mr. Odrox, don’t you have any friends to observe right now? So just…]

“Don’t just observe the subject. Thorman Ul Gross. Look around and report the situation.”

After lightly conveying his own business and hanging the mana stone back on his waist, Odrox escaped from the labyrinth and continued his search. And even after coming out of the group of first warriors, he still continues to deal with dangerous monsters, and the well-honed sense of Odrox caught something foreign.

evil aura. I faced him often, and he was a strong opponent, so I can’t forget him even now.

During the 7-star meeting, Solar’s words suddenly came to mind. that the devil appeared might invade. I thought it wouldn’t be that urgent since Solar’s tone was the same. In other words, at least I didn’t expect it to appear with such a sudden burst of energy.

Trace the source of energy.

highest mountain. The top of this mountain where you are now.

There was no need to delay. I was brought here for rest, but shouldn’t the most dangerous being be there?

Odrox polished his greatsword once and headed for the top of the mountain. I didn’t worry about anything. As always, I was confident and moved without hesitation.

He made it to the top of the mountain through a snowstorm. The sight of the clouds spreading far below him was so beautiful that it could safely be called a spectacle.

Odrox glanced at the sea of clouds leisurely moving in the direction of the wind, then turned his gaze back.

There was a sphere.

The color of the surface was blue and smooth. It was not like a stone worn by the wind and rolled down the slope.

However, it was too perfect a sphere to be considered an egg of a creature.

Explosive power and malice are felt inside.

This was the central point of the lightly spread demonic energy.

A voice came as Odrox approached it. It was a method of conveying opinions directly to the head rather than through the eardrum.

[Human, tempered human. come all the way here That’s quite right.]

Odrox did not speak. He just raised his sword with an expressionless expression that didn’t even show interest.

[wait for a sec.]

A voice in his head stopped him from doing anything in a non-urgent voice. But, of course, Odrox wasn’t so easygoing as to listen to such unidentified people – though he was presumed to be a demon.

Regardless of the highlands where oxygen is scarce, the sword with the length of about half of its gigantic body rises up in the sky without knowing how high it is.

It was a sphere without eyeballs, but it seemed to have an expression of embarrassment for some reason.

[wait for a sec!]

Even though the voice became a little more urgent, there was no answer back. The massive greatsword began to fall down under the force of gravity.

The heavy, sharp tip of the sword almost touched the orb.

Stopped.

Odrox did not stop.

His skin tingled slightly.

The tattoos on her body glowed blue.

It wasn’t because of the sphere.

─Kreur…

It’s because the wind that barely got up with the flap of his wings pushed his feet.

This size, this pressure, this mana, this sheer power.

His eyes naturally lifted upwards.

majestic sight. A shape that is covered in white scales suitable for snowy mountains.

It has a long snake-like body and no legs, but its pair of wings are so huge that they seem to cover the sky.

Two-winged dragon. Amphiter stood before him. As if to protect this orb.

The northern part is an area where many dragon-shaped monsters appear. However, it has been a long time since monsters with overwhelming power appeared.

uplifted

Blood boiled.

It felt as if the blood through my body was flowing through the shape of the tattoo as if pumping.

In my mind, I wanted to fight that strong-looking Yangpyeong Dragon for a long time.

But I persevered. He squeezed his hand tightly to calm the flickering magic tattoo as if to reveal excitement.

I have work to do. You should look around a bit more. To create an environment in which you can relax.

Odrox threw his shield forward and let the arm holding the greatsword hang down.

There is a scratching sound as the blade strikes the stone floor.

[ha ha ha!! wait! Humans ignoring me! In the next 5 minutes…]

“5 minutes?”

[yes! If you only have 5 minutes, I’ll kill the devil myself…]

“Right.”

Odrox cut off the sphere and approached the low-flying Amphiter.

Kagak-

kagagak-

Ampiter, who judged Odrox slowly approaching with sparks as a threat, let out a loud scream.

Clearly, it was a mere roar, a threatening cry. Even so, the contained power was enormous.

I didn’t know why Amphiter was here or why she was acting like she was protecting this blue sphere. Odrox didn’t even have time to think why.

because? This is because the snow piled up on the top of the mountain shook after receiving a cry of great power.

Even if only a small part falls, big things happen. Youngji may be buried in snow.

Odrox bent his arms back enough that the back of his greatsword touched his back. Using the tip of the shield as an aiming point, I aimed for the head that was shaking with the flapping of its wings.

─Kyaaa!!

Once again, there was a loud cry and powerful wing beats.

Icicles filled with magic hit Odrox along with a cold, sharp wind that seemed to tear everything apart. However, after being fully prepared, he did not move a single step from the spot even in the icy wind.

I twisted my waist and tightened the chains on my back while being hit by the pouring ice and the wind. Then, without hesitation, he threw the knife at it.
