Yellowy rushed out at an incredible speed in an instant. My body suddenly leaned forward and I grabbed the reins as tightly as I could. The inside of the wagon was chaotic. Joseph was rubbing his elbow like he hit it somewhere and Drain was fortunately unharmed. They held the handle inside the wagon.

“W-What is going on? Elder!”

“B-Buroder, wat-da- Aaaack!”

The wagon rattled again. Yellowy in front of me ran like a mad cow. A cow might be a gentle animal but it was a scary one when it got angry. Just then, I spotted a wagon that was carrying apples. I was also right in front of our path.

“Umomooo! (Going through!)”

“T-This is crazy...!”

Yellowy struck the wagon in front of us and pushed it away. The wagon was pushed back with a loud sound. From behind, I could hear the angry voice of the wagon owner.

“Cough...”

We sped through the streets of Fortren. Many users and NPCs noticed us and the people split apart into two like the Red Sea. Suddenly, my eyes widened. I could see a familiar face in the distance.

“This guy...?”

It was Aidan. Why was this unlucky guy here? I didn’t know why but it was a good thing.

“Yellowy.”

“Umo~!! (Why did you call?!)”

“Can you see that person in the brown clothes in front?”

“Umooo! (I don’t see it!)”

Ah, I had forgotten. Cows had poor eyesight. I remembered that they were color blind. Then it couldn’t be helped. I had no choice but to steer him. I grabbed the reins and pulled it slightly to the right. It was exactly in the direction of Aidan’s group. Then I shouted, “Aidan!”

In the distance, Aidan turned his gaze toward me. Our eyes met and I immediately took off my mask. Aidan’s eyes widened. I followed him around like that without him knowing who I am. It was natural for him to react like this.

“Haha. How surprising.”

The soldiers guarding the area started to surround Aidan. They were trying to protect him from the incoming mad cow. However, I had a way.

[Spider Climbing has been activated.]

[1 magic power is consumed at every fixed period of time.]

[The absorption power of both feet has become stronger.]

On the shaky wagon, I struggled to maintain my balance. Then I raised my hands.

“Now, take this.”

Cobwebs were fired from both hands and flew through the air. It was headed to the soldiers. They pulled out their swords to slash at the flying cobwebs. However, that was their mistake.

“Shit! What is this?”

“Why is it so sticky?!”

“It is becoming more and more sticky!”

“Don’t move! It will just make you more tangled up!”

The soldiers were unable to cut it and were instead tangled up in the cobwebs. Well, these cobwebs had even incapacitated Windia’s knights. What could these guards do? Still, the effect seemed good. It worked really well.

“Hmm?” Just then, I saw Aidan fleeing. My lips curved up in a smile. “Hey~ You’re trying to get away.”

The cobwebs stretched out toward Aidan. The sticky cobwebs flew and clung to his back. I pulled hard and Aidan floated in the air before falling onto the middle of the road. Of course, it was the road that the wagon would pass through.

“Umooooo! (Excitiiiing!)”

“Uwaaaack!”

Aidan was hit by Yellowy’s horns and flew through the air. He literally turned three times in the air before falling onto a hard statue. However, the area hit was a bit embarrassing. Ouch, that should hurt...

I looked straight ahead and saw the soldiers caught in the cobwebs. Their faces were pale.

“Hiiik?!”

Hrmm. Let’s get a strike. I tended to be good at bowling. On the last New Year’s day, I went with my family and got first place.

Kis headed to Garbage Village. It was night and the dark path was a bit scary but he knew the road well, so he didn’t have to worry about falling over. He kicked at a stone with a pout. “Aish, that damn old man.”

It was a boiling excitement after a long time. His hands were still shaking. This was the taste of the jackpot. His entire body was exhilarated when he thought of the coins pouring out.

“Groan. He really would kill me.”

He tried to use the momentum to enjoy other gambles but the damn old man blocked him. He said he would tell Helena. He was a really childish old man. On the other hand, it was fortunate. If Helena had known then she wouldn’t have let him go. Well, he was forced to pretend to be close to women to get money but if she had seen it, she would’ve been confused.

“Cough. Yes, let’s think positively.”

Kis stepped forward energetically. He walked a bit further and could see Garbage Village in the distance. The village was far away but it was a bit strange.

“Why is it so bright?”

It was definitely night time right now. Looking up, there was the moon. The stars could also be seen, albeit sparsely. It wasn’t as glamorous as Fortren but it was a modest place. However, the sight before him was hell...

“Kyaaaaak!”

There were distant screams. Anxiety poured into Kis. The pounding of his heart rang in his ears. Was there a raid? If so, Garbage Village was in danger. He had to save her. Helena was the only one for him.

“H-Helena!”

Kis ran forward. Flames were soaring from the village.

Upon arriving at Garbage Village, Kerenos fought and fought. It was definitely harder to deal with humans rather than monsters. They weren’t just ordinary humans, they were immortal humans. They were accustomed to many fights and cooperated well.

Kerenos gasped as he held his spear. “Pant.Paant.”

The area was already full of collapsed buildings. Fortunately, he met Crystal in the middle with the villagers behind her but he failed to protect everyone. This made Kerenos sad. He felt guilty for failing to protect them. The vague feeling flooded his heart. Just then, someone spoke, “I don’t know where you came from but you’re quite good.”

“Pant. Who are you?”

The man in the middle answered Kerenos’ question, “I am Supreme Fire Dragon.”

The man who replied, ‘Supreme Fire Dragon,’ was holding a big burning sword in his hand. It seemed he was the one who had destroyed the outer wall in one shot. It was because of this person that Kerenos was currently struggling. His flames had an extremely high temperature and his Storm Spear was bad against it.

‘Shit.’

Every time he used a skill, the white flames swallowed up the wind. It was crazy. At the back, Crystal was deploying a shield with a tremendous range. He had seen it the other day but it was a really great power. He heard it was a power she acquired when she went to the North Pole with the old man. If he knew this, he would’ve followed them. Then this situation might not have happened.

“Where are you looking?”

“......!”

After a brief moment of distraction, the man called Supreme Fire Dragon rushed in. Kerenos blocked the greatsword with difficulty. There was a huge heat. His hands seemed to be melting but he had to endure it. It was over if he let go of the spear.

“Urghh!”

“Hahaha. You seem a bit tired.”

“Kuuack. Shut up!”

Kerenos struggled to lift the spear and push the opponent away. However, this time, the other enemies around him attacked. Kerenos swung the spear once more. At the same time, he unleashed the first technique of the Storm Spear.

“Storm Spear 1st Style.”

It was Violently Blowing Winds. The winds around him started to gather toward him. In the midst of the dizzying winds, Kerenos maintained his position. It was at this moment.

“Uhuh!”

Shit, it was this guy again. The greatsword approached and Kerenos was unable to exert his strength. It was because the high temperature flames absorbed the surrounding air and made it disappear.

“I will give you one last chance. Where is the old man?”

“......”

The old man had already left for Fortren. This enemy had seen Crystal and suddenly got angry. He had been looking for the old man ever since. It seemed to be a bad relationship.

“Let’s see. I don’t know.”

“Hahaha. How interesting. Okay then, I will find him on my own. Berserker Projection.”

White flames swelled around him, emitting a great deal of heat. Kerenos’ vision became blurred. Soon, the man in front of him was wearing white flames. Just then, the spear that Kerenos was holding heated up. It soon reached an unbearable temperature.

“Urghh!”

Kerenos stepped back and checked his palms. It was so hot that burn marks could clearly be seen. He couldn’t even hold his spear. The melted spear was broken and had half become sand.

“Die.”

“......!”

The burning greatsword approached Kerenos’ head. There was no way for Kerenos to stop it. Kerenos closed his eyes at the inevitable. This was the end.

Ting!

“......?” He opened his eyes and saw an intangible shield in front of him. It was the shield that blocked the attack. Kerenos looked back. Crystal was still in the same spot. Then who did this if it wasn’t her?

“Puung!”

He looked down and saw Punghee. The shield was created by her. He had told her to avoid this place because it was dangerous. Why did she come? Damn.

“What the hell is this rat? How did you stop my greatsword?”

The shield created by Punghee lost its strength and scattered. She was still weak and could only stop it once. Supreme Fire Dragon frowned at the sight. He didn’t seem to like Punghee’s sudden appearance. It was at this moment...

“Puuuung~”

Punghee’s cheeks puffed up and the wind blew. It came together as one and created something in the air. Kerenos saw it and his entire body got goosebumps. “What is this?”

* * *

I quickly exited Fortren and continued to steer the cow. Fortren’s guards tried to chase me but the cobwebs were useful. In fact, the speed of Yellowy was so fast that they couldn’t chase us.

“Uh, Elder, can we slow down now...?!”

It wasn’t until I heard Joseph’s voice from behind me that I calmed down Yellowy. I looked back and saw that both of them had pale complexions. I had fun but I guess they were different. Suddenly, I heard a sound from the sky. It was an owl that had been flying and chasing after me for a while. It was the still unnamed Lechuza.

“Uhhh! I’m going to die... By the way, what is that white owl, Elder?”

“This? I bought it at the coin exchange.”

“Ah, that must be the Aulu you mentioned.”

“Yes, that’s right.”

In fact, I could’ve explained it was a Lechuza but now wasn’t the time. I had to hurry and reach Garbage Village. I had been whispering with Sujeong since earlier and the situation seemed quite pressing.

“If you’ve got your breaths back, get back in.”

“Huh? Already? Oof.”

“Yes, Garbage Village is in danger.”

“Aish, really...”

Joseph grumbled and climbed back into the wagon. Drain had no energy to get off and couldn’t even move his fingertips. He looked like he would vomit if he walked around. It was better if he didn’t talk.

I threw the raw chicken at the Lechuza and took Yellowy’s reins again. Just then, a message popped up.

[The sacred creature of the wind, ‘Punghee,’ has started to awaken new abilities.]
