Everyone is Young Except for Me

Chapter 109

I crossed the sea using the skill Ice Silk Road that was attached to the clothes Drain made and felt the tremendous desire to throw up. The speed was more than I could’ve imagined and I felt like I had been riding a rollercoaster for 30 minutes. An adult emperor penguin was said to ride this once a day but I couldn’t understand it.

“It is crazy to do this every day... oof.”

I spat out vomit mixed with saliva and looked forward with empty eyes. The road created by Ice Silk Road wound irregularly in the direction I was looking. A rollercoaster seemed better than this.

“Ah, shit.”

I once went to an amusement park with Mido when she was 20 years old. I had asked her what she wanted in order to celebrate becoming an adult and she just wanted to go to an amusement park with me. I remember Mido putting something like a rabbit headband on me and riding a rollercoaster. Fortunately, there was no height limit or age limit so I was able to ride.

“However, it is scary only when going from top to bottom...”

Suddenly, I stepped onto a course with a huge rotation. It was a spiral and I felt a pressure like my entire body was twisting. It felt like the whole world was turning except for me. Eventually, I screamed. "Aaaaack!"

Damn, I never screamed even when I was on an actual roller coaster...! In fact, I had been scared but Mido had been next to me, so I didn’t scream. Now there was no Mido. I closed my eyes because I thought it would be better but I was forced to open my eyes at the subsequent message.

[Your magic power is running out.]

[If you don’t replenish it, ‘Ice Silk Road’ will be stopped.”

“This is going to kill me.” If it stopped here then I would fall into the sea. I endured the urge to vomit and opened my inventory. This was a special magic power potion obtained from the North Pole. I felt the carbonic acid as I drank it.

[20% of your total magic power has been restored.]

“Keeok. It’s salty.”

The amount of recovery was less than I expected. If I had known this, I would’ve increased my knowledge stat. The good news was that I had five magic power specific potions left. It would probably run out like this. Still, I would be satisfied if I invested enough to reach Windia. I wished I could use the return stone... well, this wasn’t important.

[Chwiiik! Dizzy!! Stop right now!! How are you controlling this skill?]

“Shut up! You can talk when you can’t even drive!”

It wasn’t just the accelerator and brake you had to step on when driving. Confidence was needed. I leaned forward and started moving at a faster pace than before. Around 30 minutes later, Windia could be seen. The unusual thing was that the sky was black.

“T-This...!”

Red lava was pouring toward Windia. The appearance had changed but it seemed to come from the Kobold Mine I had gone to the other day. At the top, I saw a familiar cow. Mudur and I spoke at almost the same time. “Damn calf.”

[Fucking beef.]

The words were wrong but the meaning was the same. I first turned toward Windia. I wanted to run to Minotaur but I had to stop the lava that was entering like a tsunami. It hadn’t been long but Windia was a place I had precious memories of. I decided to use Ice Silk Road. I also didn’t forget to wear a mask and use Wings of False Image.

“Aaaaaaah!”

Ice Silk Road collided with the lava and created a tremendous amount of water vapor. In fact, it could be called a large-scale traffic accident. I watched the lava cool down in an instant and smiled with satisfaction. However, traffic accidents were always accompanied by pain.

“Ouch, ouch. My head, shoulders, knees, toes, knees and toes.” I was pounding my back when I heard a voice behind me.

“Wolf Mask?”

Whoops, my voice. The owner of the voice was a young woman with a giant scythe. I ate the Helium Slime Core I obtained the other day to change my voice. To my embarrassment, this time the voice of a child came out. It was due to the fact that it randomly changed voices.

“Cough. Yes.”

“Oh my, you’re a little kid? Child, how old are you...?”

“Si...”

Shit, I almost told her my age. However, the woman in front of me seemed to firmly misunderstand. “Six years old..? No, is it 16? Yes. It is 16? You are still young.”

She was staring at me with terrible eyes. Shit. Why was she licking her lips? I saw her tight clothes and didn’t know where to look. Then a familiar face was seen. It was Kerenos.

“Ol...” Fortunately, I shut his mouth with a cobweb before he finished. I walked over and dragged him to a quiet place.

“Shut your mouth.”

“S-Sorry, old man. By the way, what’s wrong with your voice?”

“I don't know. Just don’t call me old man.”

“So do you think you’re a young man?”

“Crazy guy. Just call me Brother.”

“Yes, younger brother.”

Just then, someone yelled, “More lava is coming!”

I looked back and saw new lava flowing over the lava that had cooled down. It was only then that I remembered I only blocked a small part of the lava. Then someone cried out, “Blizzard Storm!”

A huge ice storm suddenly appeared and froze the lava. Then I looked up at the sky and saw a huge amount of sand floating in the sky. Someone was standing on top of it. Was this person controlling the sand? However, one person controlling this much sand...

Then I heard the sound of something popping. It was a man called Damian.

“It’s coming again! Watch out!”

I could see a large number of rocks falling from the sky. I told Kerenos, “Let’s go.”

“Yes.”

I helped them smash the falling stones. Rising Sun appeared around my feet and I jumped on the sand, joining them. The woman I had previously been talking with laughed.

“Oh, this young one is different? Fiery feet are so sexy.”

No, why did her lips keep... Cough cough.

“Why don’t you join our guild? I’ll treat you well.”

Suddenly, my face became hot. Her blatant manner of speaking gave me a bad idea. Perverted devil! Go away!

“Reina, can’t you show some restraint?”

“Why should I? Damian, didn’t he catch your eye as well?”

The man called Damian turned to me. He smiled and gave an introduction, “We are the Zeus Guild. Your kicking skills are great. Why don’t you become our colleague?”

Colleague... I was grateful for the words but I had no such thoughts for now.

“I’m sorry.”

“Too bad. So what’s your name?”

“It is a secret.”

“Then I’ll ask you after this fight.”

“I might not tell you.”

“It’s a shame.”

Damian had a silver skull necklace around his neck that transformed into a spear in an instant. He wielded the spear and it moved like a whip, quickly breaking down the stones. He was an amazing young man. This wasn’t all. The young woman I had been talking to earlier also broke the stones with sharp energy every time she waved her scythe. The large man with a bald head blocked the stones with a huge stone shield and smashed them with his fists. The handsome young man shot ice magic with unusual movements.

The most amazing one was this young man next to me. Was he a Star Fruit ability user?

The young man called Michael was extraordinary. He wielded his sword even while dodging. The real thing that mattered was that he was the Star's Beloved of Antares, one of the Twelve Zodiacs. Antares was one of the Zodiacs who stood on Jupiter’s side during the Ragnarok War. By the way, it seemed not all his abilities had blossomed yet. This person was looking back at me. He asked, “Who are you? Who? Why is my constellation so chaotic?”

...Great. I had wanted to say hello.

I spoke to the sky, “Antares, the time for the promise has come.”

Sparks filled the sky. It seemed he was surprised. I declared with no hesitation, “Go to Heaven and tell them. The promised monarch has come.”

The sparks were more intense than before. Michael was staring at me blankly.

“What are you...”

The stones that had just filled the air were gone. There was no time for long words. Just then, Minotaur came here with a roar. By the way, why was he so much bigger?

“Gruruk. Trivial humans! I’ll burn you all until there are no traces left!”

Minotaur was bigger than when I had seen him. The young people in the area moved steadily under the direction of the young man called Damian. Damian said, “Shit. He is bringing the lava? Michael, your constellation still isn’t lending his strength?”

“That isn’t the problem. He has been in a state of chaos since just now.”

“What’s wrong with him? Is he a psychopath?”

“I'll bury you in sand.”

“You’re really crazy.”

Kerenos approached and whispered to me, “Old man. Did the wolf you mentioned last time lend you power?”

“I borrowed it.”

“I’m glad. Then can you stop Minotaur?”

“Who knows?”

“Huh? No, you were certain...”

“There is nothing in this world that is certain.”

As I spoke, I stood in front of the young people. A bald man called Reinhardt shouted, “Hey! You can’t face him so get out of the way!”

...This bad guy.

If I hadn’t been hiding my identity then I probably would’ve given him a good beating. I didn’t do so. I pulled something out of my inventory while telling the bald man, “That calf is mine, newbie.”

I pulled something out and simultaneously, a message appeared in the sky.

[The wolf star, ‘Romelana,’ has connected.]

Now it was time for revenge.
