Absolutely Do Not Touch Eldmia Egga

Chapter 57

We ate until the last stew and filled our stomachs, and after a brief maintenance, we started to move as planned.

We, who had moved a little earlier, identified the surveillance location of the abandoned dungeon together, followed the forest path I had walked when chasing the guys heading to the village, and only split up after figuring out where to prepare for the raid.

It was an insurance policy so that, in the unlikely event of a setback to the plan, others besides Gaendal and I could be contact points. Thanks to this, it took up a lot of time, but as a skilled adventurer, the party properly mastered the difficult forest path.

“You ran this way and got to the surveillance location in 30 minutes?”

“I just used an aura to keep my physical strength moderately, but it’s not particularly difficult.”

Seeing Ekatrina scratching the back of her head and shaking her head, it seemed like a wise decision to leave room for her return plan.

“Besides, there’s something I learned. Isn’t that a skill I learned from the Elves?”

“I haven’t lived long, but I’ve never heard of being able to learn such a skill from an elf. How on earth did you bake and boil it?”

“You could just say they saved each other’s lives.”

“No, then you’re just messing around, right? It’s not an answer, but that’s it.”

However, it could not be said that he stabbed six thieves to death and saved an elf when he was young and then signed a contract with him. If there was a 15-year-old kid who talked like that in front of my eyes without even knowing anything about it, wouldn’t I have hit him in the back for reading a novel?

No matter how much I had as an adventurer and the skills I showed myself, it was hard to believe that I could give unconditional trust to a story that only a stranger could say was absurd.

It was a topic that could only go round and round no matter how long we talked about it, so let’s talk about it moderately.

After that, it’s a time of waiting that is not boring.

Knowing that there would be nothing wrong with a little chatter, we remained silent after reconfirming the raid plan after the weapon was overhauled. It was enough for me to spend time training to use magic, but Ekaterina’s calmness and patience surprised me again.

As if a wild beast looking for prey sees an opportunity, he freezes and stares at the road with an expressionless face, which scares me.

It is all the more unfamiliar because her bright smile for a short period of time accounts for most of the impression. Eventually, after taking some time off, I got curious enough to see how long she stayed in the same position.

“come.”

And the spectacle ended with amazement when Ekaterina, who had not seen any movement other than blinking for nearly two hours, opened her mouth.

“Right?”

“Exactly.”

The ones who appeared at the end of the street she was watching were demon worshipers who were so drunk that they staggered even in their steps. The pocket watch he took out of his pocket indicated the time was 5:20. Judging from their steps, it was clear that they had started much earlier than expected.

When it became clear that even though they had gathered a group of adventurers and not even adventurers, they acted and thought like soldiers, with a sense of bond and duty, I couldn’t help but applaud the person who had educated them to that extent.

Well, all I could give them was Catherine’s hammer and my knife.

“How about another month… Huh?”

Ekatrina’s actions were so swift that it was hard to believe that she couldn’t use an aura. As if he didn’t feel the weight of the hammer at all, his long blonde hair fluttering and running through the bushes was like a lion.

Although the horrors created by the war hammer she wielded were so gruesome that no lion could dare to imitate them.

– Kwaaang!

What remained in my ears was the heavy hitting sound of hitting the floor, but there was an intense rupture sound, as if something was about to explode. It was a death sound more horrifying than the ghastly rupture heard when a small pet dog owned by someone in a previous life was run over by the wheels of a car on the road due to the owner’s stupid negligence.

Strengthened nerves and thinking made people barely look away from the situation on the verge of being crushed as if they were being crushed by an industrial press. In a tense situation in which the bizarre death might have left a trauma even if I had reacted a moment too late, I ran to hit the flanks of those who were dumbfounded and unable to even react.

“Denny?”

Even at that moment when the war hammer, which made a person exhausted, is lifted to the middle in an instant as if it had hit the ground, and is thrown at an unbelievable speed at the two people who are not aware of the death in front of their eyes. The one word he uttered was the name of a colleague whose form had already remained.

Their deaths were certain, so I stopped caring about them. If the war hammer, which is no different from that anvil, stabs you in, you have no choice but to have your face smashed.

Instead, he inserted a straight into the eye of the closest guy, pulled out the sword he was wearing around his waist, decapitated the guy next to him, and threw the sword at the guy who was farthest away. The coordinated movements that I have become so accustomed to now entered perfectly without fail.

While the thrown sword rushes at the one stuck in the pit of the stomach, the last survivor who has finally accepted this whole situation opens his eyes wide and wanders between me and Yekatrina.

While my trembling hand, which barely danced around my waist, stuttering like a lost gaze, couldn’t even hold the sword properly, I pulled out the sword that had already been lodged in the pit of my stomach again, and Ekatrina was preparing to make a full swing at him with terrifying momentum.

“Aaaaaaa!”

He screamed in terror, but he could not succeed in pulling out the sword with his drunken body and mind. Due to not being able to place the sword and scabbard properly in the midst of extreme tension, an absurd situation occurred where the half-drawn sword got caught in the scabbard.

“No eh eh!!”

The moment his gaze, embarrassed by his mistake, moved to Yekatrina and moved to the sword and scabbard he was holding, the situation was already over. Still, in preparation for an unexpected situation, Kneeling at an angle and cutting off the two wrists of the guy who was holding the sword, Ekatrica’s full swing exploded.

-Pur!

Not a quagmire, not a thump, but a literal popping sound, and the battle was over. I heard the sound of something soggy hitting nearby trees and the floor, but I didn’t see it on purpose. It was because I could already see the surroundings without a degree of hell just by driving my sword into the neck of the guy who was staggering to get up while holding on to the snowball that had been hit by me.

The remains of a human being burst into pieces of meat. Ekaterina, who directed a sea of blood that seemed impossible to clean up, let go of her expression like a beast in one breath and smiled while looking at me.

“As you said, I couldn’t even react properly. Thanks to you, I learned something good, Eldmia.”

Even though it was a quite terrifying sight, all I could feel was the admiration for her skills and the reassurance of being a colleague.

“Tell me honestly. Do you know how to use Aura?”

“Hahaha! Okay! Praise me more! Compliments are always good!”

Even by the standards of another world, without adding a single exaggeration, it is a supernatural power that transcends common sense. You wield that piece of iron that weighs more than 20kg just like your head, like a two-handed sword? That’s enough to understand why they didn’t use weapons like axes and two-handed swords.

Why use those dangerous blades when you can wield that war hammer with all that speed and accuracy anyway?

“Isn’t Jimen in the last name or first name you’re hiding?”

“Huh? What does that mean? The nuance is like a compliment.”

“There is, there is. A great warrior who uses a hammer that can be called a battering ram.”

“That’s great! A legendary figure! I love it, but unfortunately it has nothing to do with my name!”

She was the owner of a different world sensibility, laughing heartily and cheerfully in the midst of a sea of blood and corpses that wanted to escape at any moment.

“Whoa! This wasn’t the time. Let’s go back quickly and take care of the rest.”

“It’s over in no time, so I have some time to spare, so let’s go find some money bags for them in this mess.”

“oh?”

“Because I don’t think I would have given these guys a small amount of money to play and drink.”

I don’t know if Cheryl would have sent a cold gaze, but Ekatrina and I had a thoroughly adventurous sensibility.

We quickly found the money bag in a short time and headed to the abandoned dungeon.
