Be Careful When Agreeing to Terms and Conditions - Chapter 95



If. Bloody (1)

The cold moon hangs crookedly on the ridge. It was a time when the cold, moist air was seeping into my lungs. The late-night Mond was like a lingering fire that ignited the energy of the day. The sound of grasshoppers fluttered like ash, and only the crackling bonfire radiated light and heat, guarding the time when the sun was absent.

There are always elements of risk along the journey on the Tivat continent. From scoundrels such as treasure hunters, elemental creatures such as slimes, and monsters such as the Chuchu tribe and ruin guardians, they used to create anxiety in powerless travelers.

So, those who traveled to the continent of Tivat were usually one of two categories. Either you are confident in your own military power, or you can afford to replace it with money. Those who did not belong to either of these two categories often disappeared without a word.

Fortunately, my group and I fell into one of those two categories. To be more precise, we are the former group, and all three of us were skilled people whose skills were verified at Mond’s Adventurer’s Guild.

First of all, Piseul, the ‘Princess of Condemnation’. Most famous adventurers in Mond had at least one nickname, but unusually, this girl was called by that nickname from the moment she joined the adventurer’s guild. The only reason was because she called herself that.

Rumors about the pretentious and arrogant little adventurer quickly heated up Mond’s drinking party. The life of an adventurer was such that even healthy adult men could not endure it for more than a few years before falling out. Just by looking at her white and soft skin, one could quickly guess that this new adventurer had grown up unaware of her hardships.

How long can I last? Some people said they could walk for a week, but most people said they could probably last a month. Even the person who valued the girl the most only walked away for about a year. It was just a cautious guess that she would be able to endure even that since she had the ‘eyes of God’.

However, three years later, no one in Mond had a negative outlook on the girl’s life as an adventurer. In less than a year, the girl qualified as a ‘Senior Adventurer’, the elite of the Adventurer’s Guild, based on ‘God’s Eyes’, and even after that, she continued to perform and made a name for herself.

Even those who ridiculed her unusual way of speaking and her eccentricities now call her ‘the princess of her condemnation’ with admiration. In fact, some people even said that they liked her haughty appearance because it was cute. She is that popular and a talented adventurer. Fissle, the ‘Princess of Condemnation’, was undoubtedly her trustworthy companion. Except for a few shortcomings, that is.

And the second, ‘Bloody’, also a senior adventurer of Mond. There was no need to add an explanation, it was just me.

Although she was not a very talented person, having the title of ‘Senior Adventurer’ meant that she could at least do her part wherever she went. It’s not for nothing that they’re called the elite of the Adventurer’s Guild and instant power.

Furthermore, I was an adventurer with a record of surviving 100 days after disappearing in the snowy mountains, and I was also one of the owners of the ‘Eye of God’. Therefore, it was safe to say that even if it was just me and Fissle, most of our safety was guaranteed. On the Tibat continent, having ‘God’s eyes’ meant being chosen by God, and the level of power was different from those who were not chosen.

But even these of us could be said to be lacking compared to the last girl to be introduced. In terms of force, reputation or any other aspect.

Light golden hair and scarlet eyes that look like they were cast from gold bars. A girl whose slender arms and legs were full of feminine charm, and whose pure white skin resembled the texture of the pure white flower petals decorating her hair.

The name of this beautiful girl is ‘Lumine.’ He was an ‘honorary knight’ of the Knights of Pevonius who protected Mond, and a stranger also called ‘The Traveler’, and was one of the heroes who solved the ‘Wood Demon Dragon Incident’ that terrified Mond.

In other words, he was a hero who solved a national disaster. This is an honor granted only to a very small number of adventurers, and it could be said that it was impossible to compare it to me, who was only an adventurer.

Considering her true identity, she deserved it. This world was a world in a game, and the opponent was the main character of this world. And since I was only a supporting actor at best, I couldn’t even smile bitterly when I realized that fact.

But what can I do, my bowl is only that good. Since he wasn’t even jealous, I just did what I had to do without saying anything. The task was none other than personal maintenance.

It was a routine I had never missed since graduating from New Chick. It was the minimum safety measure for me to survive as an adventurer.

Sharpen the spear blade, check the condition of bandages and medicine, and check the remaining amount of dry matter essential for survival. And only after putting elemental resistance potions and a dagger in case of an unexpected situation was the end of my long maintenance.

It was already late, already past midnight. Since Oz was scouting the air, there was no need for her to be on alert, and Fissle and Paymon had already gone to dreamland. As always, Paimon was sleeping on my thigh, saying he would never be separated from me.

Anyway, once Paimon falls asleep, he rarely wakes up, so he could just leave it like this and take it with him when he goes into the tent. While I was organizing my belongings with that thought in mind, I suddenly realized that scarlet eyes were staring at me.

My eyes naturally turned to the source of the gaze. A girl with light golden hair was looking at me blankly, resting her chin on the other side of her campfire. Her flickering lights cast fiery shadows on the girl’s face, imbuing her with dreamy beauty.

“…… “That’s surprising.”

That was the one word the girl, that is, Lumine, said. I stared at her as if asking what she was talking about. In fact, I haven’t had much conversation with her so far.

Although I was with her by accepting her request from her adventurer guild, I had no intention of getting that close to her. In fact, Fissle and Oz, who enjoyed her pretentious dialogue, would have become closer to her than to me.

More than anything, every time I tried to talk to Lumine, Paimon’s checks were extreme. Paimon called Lumine a ‘cheap’ and would puff out her cheeks in displeasure when I even tried to say something to her. Lumine’s beauty seemed very threatening to Paimon.

Well, it’s just a fish in the sea and a bird in the sky. Still, I also felt a strange sense of distance from Lumine, so I didn’t necessarily blame Paimon.

She is the main character, and I am just on the edge. Since we were on different stages, we couldn’t be together anyway. There was nothing good about getting closer. It would be nice if we didn’t suffer from national conspiracies and disasters for no reason.

And also, there was anxiety that Paimon might leave for the protagonist at any time. Since I was also more attached to Paimon than Paimon, I couldn’t help but feel wary of Lumine, who could be said to be Paimon’s original partner.

However, Lumine did not seem to like this uneven relationship at all. I saw her interrupter, Paimon, taking advantage of the moment he was asleep to raise a topic like this.

“It looks like you are preparing and working hard. “He didn’t seem like the kind of person to do that.”

I snorted softly at Lumine’s words. Well, she might not have known. The life of an adventurer was always fraught with risk, and beyond that, one had to assume the worst. So preparing thoroughly was the most basic of all.

But she might have been a different story if she were as strong as she was. Still, I was a little dissatisfied with the gap, so I answered as if I was asking about everything.

“Of course, I am a safety first person… Do you know how much the life of an adventurer is the life of a fly? The life of an adventurer involves seeing several people you know die even in one night. “If you don’t want to die, you should at least work hard to prepare.”

However, despite my answer, Lumine still had a puzzled look on her face. She tilted her head, and she tilted it. It was really pretty, but I had a hard time calming her heaving heart.

“…… But it’s ‘covered in blood’, right?”

The gesture of my hand as I was organizing my belongings stopped. And then my eyes turned to Lumine again.

Only pure doubt was reflected in her eyes. As I stared at her as if demanding an explanation, Lumine added her words.

“I’ve heard of it, ‘covered in blood’… “She always says that when she returns from her request, she comes back covered in blood.”

As soon as I heard that, I let out a faint groan. It was because he realized what Lumine was misunderstanding. But before I could explain what I was doing, her luminous, charming lips were kissing me.

“Generally, if you come back covered in blood, it means your fighting style is that much more aggressive, right? But surprisingly, the preparations were thorough, so I was a little surprised.”

I looked away for a moment and was silent. It was because I was at a loss as to how to explain it. I felt a little embarrassed and scratched my head roughly. And soon he opened his mouth with a sigh.

“That’s right, I think there’s a bit of a misunderstanding… ….”

“…… Mr. Siu, Mr. Traveler.”

But my explanation did not go any further. Because with the sound of flapping wings, a crow flew down and sat down next to me.

A deep and polite voice struck my ears. Lumine and I’s gaze naturally turned towards Oz, Fissle’s henchman.

He reported in a polite voice as always.

“I think we need to move quickly. The destination was close, and the movement of the Wooin group was spotted nearby, so I didn’t think there was any need to cause friction…….”

Hearing those logical words, I clicked my tongue and raised my spear. Lumine looked a little dissatisfied because he couldn’t hear my answer, but he couldn’t help it.

The risk of encountering the Wooindan and that international gangster in a place where no one was around was too great. First, I pinched Paimon’s soft cheek to wake him up.

Paimon’s glutinous rice cake-like cheeks droop. Paimon soon opened his eyes with a groan.

“Ugh… Si, sihyu, bo, barley aha…….”

Looking at Paimon who was still talking nonsense as if he couldn’t come to his senses, I glanced at Lumine.

“…… Let’s talk later, and for now, let’s move on. It’s straight to Sammul Village anyway, right?”

Lumine had a slightly grumpy expression, but soon shrugged his shoulders with a sigh as if there was nothing he could do.

“Okay, then what… “Then I’ll go wake Fisl up.”

After saying that, Lumine stood up. And then he moved towards the tent. If that gait seems a little cold, is it an illusion?

I looked at the back for a moment, then moved my gaze back to Paimon. Paimon was still struggling with his cheek pinched in my hand.

When I saw that cute appearance, I burst out laughing. Yes, I have Paimon anyway.

“Wake up quickly, Paimon! “Then I will miss meals.”

“…… “Well, that’s not possible!”

Paymon must have suddenly come to his senses when he heard the sound of ‘Bob’ and lifted his body into the air while shouting. It soared like a rocket. She was startled and turned her head here and there to assess the situation.

I smiled mischievously when I saw that. Paimon’s empty gaze turned to me.

“It’s still far away from dinner time. Let’s go quickly.”

“This, profit…” … ! “It’s too much, Siwoo!”

I heard Paimon’s voice complaining of injustice in one ear and out the other, and stood up. It was the same daily routine as always. However, a foreign substance called the ‘main character’ just got in there.

The protagonist and the extras were still running on parallel paths.

**

One night, a meteor shower fell. The fragments of the meteorite rained down on a wide area spanning Mond and Liyue. The meteorite fragment had a strange blue color, and people who came into contact with it began to show abnormal symptoms.

The symptom was ‘sleep.’ After seeing residents suffering from nightmares and groaning for days, the Adventurer’s Guild decided that something was fishy and urgently gathered skilled adventurers. And one request was placed.

From Noble mtl dot com

‘Investigate the mysterious meteorite fragment and, if possible, solve the problematic situation.’ That’s how Lumine received a request from the Adventurer’s Guild and ended up with two unique adventurers named ‘Siu’ and ‘Fisle’. It was.

At first, I didn’t think much of it. For Lumine, receiving requests and solving problems was a daily routine. Lumine has been living on the Tivat continent until now, meeting and becoming friends with several people in the process.

The only problem was one man. Lumine pretended to read his request form and gave the man a slightly dissatisfied look. He had been interrogating patients showing abnormal symptoms in Saemmul Village for a while, and was in the middle of a conversation with Fissle.

“Hmph, the dirty smell of sin is wafting in the air. This is probably something close to a curse. Sinners with an unfortunate fate…….”

“Okay, okay, I understand. Is it some kind of curse? “Then I guess I’ll have to find a medium.”

Fisle was reciting a line full of arrogance and bravado, but when Siwoo hit the player, he clamped his mouth shut. Fissle’s cheeks puffed out as if he was dissatisfied with that. She was a cold girl who seemed a bit cynical to others, but strangely enough, in front of Siwoo, her cuteness, which was unique to a girl of that age, was revealed.

However, whether Fissle puffed out his cheeks or not, Siwoo and his partner ‘Paimon’ did not seem to care at all. Paymon crossed his arms and nodded his head loudly, as if agreeing with Siu’s words.

“Yes! It would be better that way. “I guess the meteorite fragments are the most suspicious, right?”

“The problem is that there is no guarantee that we will not be affected by the meteorite fragments… ….”

Piseul made a grumpy expression as he saw Siwoo stroking his chin while saying that. Then she again took her characteristic ostentatious pose and spoke in a haughty voice.

“Woah, this is so cruel! Even before the bell of prophecy rang, she heard the princess and saw that she was from Yuya Pure Land…….”

“First, Amy, search for the meteorite fragment.”

It was just one word. As soon as Siwoo opened her mouth, the name ‘Amy’ came out, and Pisel froze in that pretentious pose. Even the speed at which the frost spread through the morning dew could not have been faster than this.

Seeing that, Siwoo smiled in remorse. Oz sighed, and Paimon shook her head.

“What’s wrong, Amy? “There’s no answer?”

“Bo, bo, the princess saw, ah, no, I. Well, I mean…….”

Fissle stuttered her words like that, and eventually her expression turned to tears and she screamed.

“…… “I told you the name was a secret, Siwoo oppa!”

“Oh, is that so? Tsk, my memory isn’t that good these days… ….”

Siwoo played it off as if it was no big deal. Fissle, who was glaring at that figure with watery eyes, soon turned her body and took her steps with all her strength. Every time she walked with anger, pak, pak, the ground was dug.

Seeing that scene, Siwoo asked a pointless question as to why he had left it that way.

“Pisle, where are you going?”

“Hmph, I don’t know. Don’t mind!”

Once again, Fissle shouted, “Back,” And headed somewhere. As if Oz knew this would happen, her little girl sighed and ran straight after her master. Siwoo looked at the back for a moment and then shrugged his shoulders.

Even so, Fissle was a professional. I may have been angry, but there was no way I would throw away his request. They were probably on their way to search for meteorites.

Thinking like that, Siwoo turned his gaze and made eye contact with Lumine. Siwoo, facing Rumine’s uncertain gaze, flinched.

Lumine was glaring at Siwoo without saying anything. And then she smiled.

“…… You two get along well? “So, what should I do now?”

It was a voice like a bird chirping, but even its inner meaning was not beautiful.

‘Are you two playing well? So what are you trying to get me to do? You two decided everything anyway. ‘Except me.’ These were words filled with complaints from a sense of alienation.

Despite his blatant dissatisfaction, Siwoo just made a puzzled expression and avoided eye contact. Lumine’s eyebrows narrowed slightly when she saw that.

Again. He was also avoiding Lumine’s words. Lumine didn’t like Siwoo’s attitude. For some reason, Siwoo kept avoiding Lumine.

Even though she said it herself, Lumine knew that she was pretty. So she knew that many of her men looked at her with eyes filled with desire at times, and she also understood that flirting with her was a kind of instinct on her part.

But this man she met not long ago showed no signs of doing so. So Lumine found this guy a bit like her. She was interested, and she even had a slight desire to get to know him.

However, Siwoo was not simply indifferent to her. He even seemed to be avoiding it. As it piled up over the past few days, Rumine strangely felt like her pride was being hurt.

How dare you ignore me? Let’s see how far we can avoid it. Such a mistake arose.

“…… Well? Well, wouldn’t it be okay to find some meteorite fragments? Be careful because you might get cursed. Then I guess I should go look for a piece of the meteorite. Let’s go, Paimon.”

A word thrown out suddenly. Those words once again completely distanced herself from Lumine, so Lumine impulsively spit out the words in her sobbing heart.

“Let’s go together.”

Siwoo’s movement, which was about to take a step, suddenly stopped. His gaze glanced towards Lumine. Paimon, who had a satisfied look on his face as Shiu seemed to keep his distance from Lumine, asked back in surprise as if it was some kind of lightning strike.

“…… Huh?! Why not? “Why do you want to accompany us?”

Lumine’s eyes glanced at Paimon. Actually, I didn’t like the little guide that had the rude word ‘cheap’ on it. But now, Lumine’s pride was more important.

Lumine smiled brightly as if there was something wrong. She had a confident smile on her face, and Paimon flinched a little.

“But, it’s ‘covered in blood’, right? If you come back covered in blood from every battle, it means you’re fighting a very close fight… “Wouldn’t it be better to move as a group, just in case?”

It was a remark that could be felt as a bit sarcastic. It was Paimon, not Siwoo, who was moved by the somewhat intentional provocation, ‘You’re weak, so you need someone to protect you, right?’

She glared at Lumine with her burning eyes. Paimon’s body, which was trembling with anger, managed to squeeze out a voice.

“Cheap. You really…… !”

“That’s right.”

However, Paimon’s anger did not last. Paimon’s small body stiffened at Siwoo’s casual answer.

A sense of betrayal began to form in Paimon’s eyes. Nevertheless, Siwoo’s attitude was nothing short of calm and weak.

“It’s true that the more we travel together, the safer we are, so let’s do that. “No complaints?”

At Siu’s words, Lumine smiled a victorious smile and looked at her pay mon with accusatory eyes, and then she stood next to Siu with a confident gait. Rumine answered with a satisfied smile for the first time in a long time.

“Yes, no complaints.”

Paimon seemed to want to protest, but he seemed unable to find a suitable rebuttal even after complaining for a long time, so his shoulders slumped in the end. Seeing that, Si-Woo chuckled and let out a light laugh. Siwoo’s hand stroked Paimon’s head as if comforting him.

Anyway, I was jealous. Siwoo stroked Paimon’s head, which was wide enough in one hand, and muttered as if he was thinking hard.

“However, where do you start searching for meteorite fragments? ….”

“Oh, Siu! Hey, you’re here at the right time!”

Before Si-woo could finish his words, a voice of approval was heard from somewhere. The gaze of the group turned to the middle-aged man running towards them. He was a middle-aged man with brown hair, an unusual looking hunter with cat ear-like organs on his head.

As soon as Siwoo saw that face, he was equally pleased. Because he was someone I knew well.

“Mr. Duraf, you are in the village!”

Siwoo immediately walked up to the approaching middle-aged man and exchanged greetings. It was a conversation between people who had known each other for quite a long time, ranging from common greetings to personal news.

Lumine’s questioning gaze turned to Paimon. Paymon looked at the sight and seemed to not like it, crossing his arms and snorting. However, his nature of wanting to explain things seemed to be irresistible, and soon a variety of information flowed from his small mouth.

“…… Heung, Mr. Duraf is the leader of the hunters in Sammul Village. And he is famous for being a drinker, and since Siwoo also likes alcohol, it means that drinkers have something in common.”

“But I’ve never seen you drink alcohol?”

Paimon’s face showed an annoyed look at Lumine’s question. She put her hand on her waist and spoke as if she were preaching, as if she didn’t know anything about it.

“Are you stupid? If you get attacked after drinking, you’ll be in big trouble! “Siwoo may look like that, but he is an adventurer with a strong work ethic.”

Paimon looked oddly proud as she said that, and she seemed to be extremely proud of her partner. Lumine, who was looking at the scene a little in awe, soon heard a loud noise and turned her gaze towards it.

“No, so you just sent it to me?”

“As you know, Alan is a little unruly… “How could it not work?”

The middle-aged man called ‘Mr. Duraf’ seemed a little embarrassed, and Siwoo clicked his tongue as if he was bothered, then turned and approached the group. And he clicked his tongue and said:

“I think I found a piece of a meteorite.”

But even just looking at Si-woo’s troubled appearance, it was clear that that was not all. After being silent for a moment, he added his words.

“…… However, a villager went first to see the piece of the meteorite.”

Hearing those words, Lumine let out a long sigh.

Why is it that things like this never go easily? It was immediately after that that the two adventurers’ new models hit the ground.

**

“Say, save me! Help me!”

It didn’t take long to spot the blonde man screaming. The blond man was dragging his body backwards, holding his butt.

Surrounding the man were the Chuchu tribe. Five ordinary Chuchu people, three archers, and two assault leaders. As soon as he saw that, Siwoo’s frown deepened.

“Lumine, that man is Alan.”

Lumine immediately pulled her sword from her waist. A sharp metallic sound rang out. With a crunching sound, the eyes of the Chuchu people turned to Lumine.

“…… Who wants to rescue me?”

“You do it. Since the spear has a wide range, it will be easy to provoke.”

That was the end of the conversation, Lumine nodded his head slightly and immediately rushed to the ground. It happened in an instant.

Lumine fiercely tore through the air and immediately pounced on the panicked blonde man. The man still couldn’t understand the situation and was screaming.

“aaah! Chuchu, we are the Chuchu tribe!”

As if stimulated by the scream, the Chuchu tribe rushed towards them, screaming. Around this time, Lumine took a step back.

Like a flash, a thorn pierced the body of one of the Chuchu tribe. The Chuchu people who were about to take a step stopped in embarrassment.

“…… Dala?”

The bushy haired head tilted. Where did the spear come from? Their eyes traced the spear’s trajectory.

One of her men was standing there. Siwoo smiled leisurely at the Chuchu tribe looking at him.

“What’s wrong? “I lost a comrade, shouldn’t I get revenge?”

The eyes of the Chuchu people crossed. They looked at Siwoo, then at Lumine, who had lifted Allen up, and then they looked at each other.

And soon, as if it had come to a conclusion, the Chuchu people roared in anger and changed the direction of their charge. The Chuchu tribe began to rush towards Siwoo.

“Biat, ika!”

After that, Siwoo took a deep breath. There is no window now. This was an action to provoke the Chuchu people. Since the Chuchu people were intelligent creatures, they tended to deal with the weakest targets first.

And there was no weapon in Siwoo’s hand. Naturally, the Chuchu people had no choice but to take revenge on their comrade and deal with Siwoo first.

That was the target. Siwoo’s hand turned toward his chest, and one of the Chuchu tribe arrived first, swinging a clumsy wooden club. A simple blow struck vertically.

The chaos that Siwoo had experienced so far was too intense for him to be attacked that much. The man’s body was twisted, and just as the wooden club grazed his body, the hand in his arms went out like a thunderbolt.

A silver solid line is drawn. Following the trajectory, a blood-red straight line was drawn on the nape of one of the Chuchus’ necks, and soon the body of one of the Chuchus fell apart with a gurgling sound.

Dagger, even if you were the owner of the Eye of God, it was difficult to deal with the monster without any weapon. This was the moment when the spare parts I had prepared just in case shined.

The Chuchu people attack one after another. Before Siu’s wooden club, which was soaring high in the sky, could fall, he dug into the arms of one of the Chuchu tribe and plunged the dagger into the front of his neck. Then an arrow flew in with the sound of cutting through the wind.

Siu bowed down and used the corpses of the Chuchu people as a shield. And he rolled his body and ran to avoid the Chuchu people who were still aiming at Siwoo.

The target was the spear stuck in the corpse. When Siwoo removed the spear and rolled over, the sound of a horn sounded from somewhere.

A large Chuchu tribe with black fur appeared, pounding. An elite warrior of the Chuchu tribe, boasting strong muscles. He was the ‘Chu Chu assault leader.’

Alan’s screams eventually irritated even the Chuchu people who were far away. At that time, Lumine, who had completely left the battlefield and was observing the situation, was measuring the time to invade immediately.

There were too many enemies. A one-on-many melee was bound to be a burden even for a superhuman with the eyes of God. But now, Siwoo was surrounded by more than fifteen enemies, including Chuchu archers who could snipe from a distance.

There was even a Chuchu assault leader who boasted strong strength and tenacity. Even if Lumine was there, it would have been difficult.

Lumine’s eyes sharply scanned the gap between the Chuchu people. Where is it, where should I go to divide the enemies?

However, such an attempt was put to rest by criticism coming from somewhere.

“It’s okay.”

Lumine’s body, which was ready to jump out at any moment, suddenly stopped. She shifted her questioning gaze.

Siwoo’s friend with silver hair was sitting there. Paimon added with a calm, frail expression.

“It’s okay, so I’m just watching.”

“…… “There are that many enemies?”

Lumine asked back in a distrustful voice. Siwoo was also a senior adventurer, so he might be strong, but there were still too many opponents. The Chuchu people in formation had a level of strength that was different from when they were active as a single entity.

However, despite Lumine’s rebuttal, Paimon’s attitude was still relaxed. She was making a humming sound, as if she was in a bit of a good mood.

“You asked why Siwoo was ‘covered in blood’?”

Paimon then crossed his arms with a smug look on his face. She started making gurgling sounds with her little mouth.

“Then pay attention. Why is Siwoo called ‘bloody’?”

Lumine’s eyes moved blankly. By then her eyes had moved back to the battlefield.

A loud bang erupted. At the same time, her black-furred head spun in the air. Blood scatters in all directions along with the stream of water. The crushed remains of the brain sloshed and stuck to the ground.

It was Siwoo. As soon as he pulled the spear out of the corpse, he immediately took advantage of the Chuchu assault leader swinging a huge ax to dig inside. And the blow aimed at his neck.

A stream of water rose up the spear and exploded at the pole of the spear blade. The compressed stream pierced the hard muscles, crushed the cervical vertebrae, and as if that wasn’t enough, it burst through the flesh and rained unseasonably.

‘God’s Eyes’, a look passed through Lumine’s eyes as she saw the scene. Until now, Siu had never fought in front of Lumine using the Eyes of God. At most, I only used it to fill the water bottle.

So, this was my first time seeing Lumine. How Siwoo uses the ‘Eye of God’ to fight. He put away the spear that was fired and was catching his breath.

Blood water soaks the earth, monsters, and humans. The man standing in the rain of fresh blood was watching the Chuchu people with sunken eyes, like a fisherman waiting for the tide.

The Chuchu tribe paused for a moment, perhaps embarrassed by the inaction of Siu, who defeated their leader with a single blow. However, for these single-celled people, hesitation was originally just a passing emotion. Soon, a burning hatred began to fill their eyes.

“Biadam!”

The cries of the Chuchu people who lost their trustworthy leader echoed through the vacant lot. They immediately rushed in with weapons including wooden clubs.

It seemed like there was no way out of the gap that surrounded and surrounded us in a circle. Nevertheless, Siwoo just held his breath until the last drop of blood fell.

And the next moment, Siwoo struck the blood-soaked ground with his spear.

The terrifying sound of something sharp tearing into flesh rang out. Not just once, but multiple times.

Puk, puk, puk, one after another, bloody blades soar and pierce the bodies of the approaching Chuchu people. With a scream, blood flowed again, and the blood once again became a blade and cut down my former masters.

It happened literally in an instant. The surrounding Chuchu tribes were annihilated, and only the two Chuchu archers, who had been enjoying the rain so far away that the blood could not reach them, froze at the bright red devastation.

Siwoo’s eyes turned to the remaining survivors. One of the Chuchu archers who met his gaze measured the aim of his crossbow as if struggling. However, the struggle was just a struggle.

With a loud thud, the spear blade sinks into the head of the Chuchu archer. It was a javelin throwing skill that had already been demonstrated once at the start of the battle. What was a little different from then was that the stream of water was flowing up and around the pole.

Bang, an explosion rang out again. The spear, unable to withstand the impact, was thrown away, and the head of the Chuchu tribe, which was hit directly by the explosion, was shattered and split into flesh and bone fragments. And the blood overflowing. Blood poured down once again.

The Chuchu archer, who was covered in his comrade’s blood right next to him, immediately trembled and threw away his crossbow. And then, in a state of panic, he ran screaming.

“Ika, kuzi! Muhe nye!”

But the flight was not long. As soon as Siwoo grabbed the spear again, the dripping blood turned into a blade and cut into the Chuchu tribe’s body.

The body of the last Chuchu fell down along with the death horse. Only the trembling corpse showed signs of life.

Lumine’s eyebrows narrowed slightly. She was watching the process from beginning to end.

Well, it’s quite good.

No, it wasn’t quite that level, but it was strong. In particular, its ability to manipulate blood was very unique and threatening. ‘Eye of God’ deals with pure elements. Therefore, the techniques used by most owners of the Eye of God were limited to utilizing pure elements.

But Siwoo was different. He seemed more confident in handling blood water than the pure element water. Otherwise, there was no way I would have deliberately insisted on that method. Rather, it seemed that such intense remote control was possible because of such limitations.

Siwoo, perhaps aware of Rumine’s complicated feelings, was trudging toward his group, drenched in blood. Alan finally seemed to have calmed down and let out a sigh of relief.

As Siwoo approached, the smell of blood hit him. The moment she smelled that fishy smell, a guess suddenly crossed Lumine’s mind.

“…… That’s why it’s ‘covered in blood.’”

Siwoo’s gaze glanced towards Lumine. He asked again if Lumine wanted confirmation that my guess was correct.

“It’s not that you shed blood, it’s that you were always soaked in blood because it was your ability to handle blood. “Am I right?”

Hearing those words, Siwoo let out a sigh. Then he looked away for a moment, scratched his head and sighed.

“…… “You’re half right.”

Lumine’s expression hardened at those words. I thought it was a perfect deduction, but could it be that there is more to it?

But before Rumine could ask any more questions, Siwoo snapped his finger.

The blood that was soaking Siwoo’s body slowly flows down. It was a strange sight. A sight where only the blood flows from the body and becomes clean, as if washed with clean water.

When Lumine looked at Siwoo with incomprehensible eyes, Siwoo smiled slightly. It was a slightly teasing, joyful smile.

“Even though I get wet with blood every time I fight, I can wash it off. But coming back covered in blood every time is just…….”

Lumine’s head tilted to the side. Siwoo must have been amused by the fact that Lumine didn’t notice that, and revealed the correct answer with a wry smile.

“…… “Because it’s easier to become famous that way.”

‘Because it’s easy to become famous’? When Lumine’s expression became dumbfounded by the incomprehensible words, Paimon added an explanation as if he had been waiting.

“The more famous an adventurer becomes, the more requests they receive for nominations. “It’s one of the useful life skills that Mr. Cyrus taught me!”

Then, Paimon nods his head, saying “Um, um,” As if he was impressed again, and Siwoo shrugs his shoulders as if he did as he said. In addition, Lumine, who was looking at the ugly face of Alan crying and clinging to Siwoo because he was scared, looked at him in bewilderment. She instead shook her head.

I was a fool for expecting that there must be such a great reason.

However, still a little bit. Okay.

I saw it again a little bit. Lumine thought so and moved to find a piece of the meteorite.

Afterwards, it was realized that the meteorite fragments contained elemental power, and those with the ‘eyes of God’ were found to have no problem in contact, and it was also discovered that patients would be cured if the meteorite fragments in the area were removed. However, the request is not yet finished.

The companionship between the protagonist and someone other than the protagonist was scheduled to continue for some time.
