Chapter 219 - Episode Fourteen - High Elf Sorcerer, Devin (7)

The fifth levels of the witch’s tower were like a cave.

Here and there, it was covered with pale blue crystalline stones.

The atmosphere was as fantastic as the previous levels.

It is said that from this fifth level, dangerous B-class monsters will be coming out.

I’m not going to be frightened more than necessary because I was able to deal with the A-class magical beast Nalgarn, but most adventurers who visited the fifth levels of the witch’s tower seemed to be either relying on numbers to challenge the monsters or running away from them while mining magical ore.

And in the records of Palgas Village, there was no adventurer who had climbed the stairs leading to the sixth level.

The main magic beast that appears in this level is Cyclops.

It is a one-eyed giant, nearly three meters tall. It has a horn sprouting from the center of its head.

They have strong arms, and although they don’t have a language, they are very intelligent.

However, they are barbarians in their way of life and will eat any living thing, be it man or insect.

In addition to their vicious appearance, they have a tremendous attack with a mace that seems to be cut out of a crystal stone.

The old adventurers of the past were quite gutsy, running away from the power of this event and mining for magical ores.

They must have been very profitable.

I’d like to look into the various kinds of magical ores in this area, but unfortunately, there’s a limit to how much I can carry around with me even if I can get my hands on.

If I am going to do this, I want to collect various items at the sixth or seventh level, where the place is swarming with A-class monsters.

The Golden Dragon Head that I got at the fourth level is also something that I cried over and over again.

Mea is looking at me anxiously.

“Abel…… is that okay? Won’t you fall down? Mea’s very anxious.”

“It’s okay. Do you want a ride too?”

“Ummm …… no matter how much Abel asks, then …… Le-, let me think about it.”

I’m now moving through the fifth levels on the shoulders of Cyclops.

When I stepped into the fifth level, he attacked me, and when I held him down with my earthen arms to finish the job, he dropped his weapons and surrendered, so I am using him as legs.

As expected of Cyclops, they say he is as smart as his reputation.

As long as you are riding Cyclops, the other Cyclops will not attack you.

It looks at you curiously, and when our eyes meet, as if sensing something, it quietly goes away.

I was planning to get a horn as a souvenir, but I couldn’t find a reasonable horn because there were no cyclops to attack me.

It would be awkward to take the initiative myself to take the horn from them, as I would feel like a robber.

If I asked my current Cyclops to give me the tip of his horn, would he give it to me?

I’ll be looking for other monsters while riding Cyclops.

You can see the clear foggs, whose body surface and body fluids are transparent, and whose organs are visible.

Although it is not different in size from the normal species of fogg, it is a magical beast that is feared as a top C-class monster because it moves fast and spits out a powerful digestive fluid.

If you look into the distance, you will see a large turtle with a transparent shell that glows with a lapis lazuli coloration.

Is that …… the Crystal Turtle?

They have strong legs and are said to be good at running over foreign enemies by retreating into their prized shells after kicking the ground with their feet.

Although its danger level is in the upper C class, the difficulty of defeating it is said to increase by one level due to the difficulty of breaking through its hard defenses.

As I was thinking about this, I was looking at the Crystal Turtle, when suddenly the Crystal Turtle retreated into its shell.

A familiar bundle of light shot out from around the bend and struck the Crystal Turtle.

The Crystal Turtle’s shell bounces up. A crack appeared in the shell as it floated in the air, and it shattered as soon as it hit the wall, causing a scream of despair.

“Fu …… fufu …… I see you’ve caught up with me.”

A crystal-clear, beautiful voice could be heard from the source of the rays of light.

But the elegance I had heard before had faded in that voice.

From the tip of the horn, an odd-eyed high elf from the fifth level emerged.

His face was pale and he held his hand on his abdomen.

“N, no way ……?”

I was frankly surprised by the resurgence of the elf.

“Are you surprised? The vestments are specially made. The high elven priest who was given an oracle by the sky god Silfheim-sama can borrow this vestment from the high shrine for life. If you put a little bit of magic into the robe, the magic circle contained in the robe will unfold and suppress any kind of impact.”

“After all those defeats, you still had the energy to come after me ……”

Of course, I wasn’t surprised to see that he was safe from the kick of the World Tree Ortem.

We have just witnessed the great failures of trying to prevent them in the first place.

What I’m surprised at is the bottomlessness of the elf’s spirit.

Normally, I would think that after such a big mouthful and then losing so cleanly, you would be able to hunker down to avoid being seen by your opponent again, but it seems that this is not the case with this elf.

I’m not sure if he really came to lick my shoes or not.

The eyelids of the elf’s left eye twitched nervously.

“I’ve been told by Silfheim-sama that I am the best magician among the High Elf priests, and I can’t afford to suffer defeat here …… I’m not going to be able to apologize to my ancestors, my fellow countrymen, and Silfheim-sama if I don’t. Indeed, I’ll admit that I underestimated you! Marren, compete with me once again! No more games! Sorcery against Sorcery, in pure battle, of our heavenly people, at the risk of dignity ……”

“Dirt, form, wall”

A wall of dirt rises up between me and the elf.

As the gap between us grew, I saw the elf’s stunned expression, but then he suddenly came to his senses and jumped at the wall, his beautiful face changing to that of a demon.

After the road is completely blocked off, a thumping sound can be heard from the other side, violently banging on the wall.

“Well, let’s go.”

“…… Isn’t it alright to fight against him a little bit? I was kind of excited by myself, you know?”

“I don’t know about that kind of pride of tribe. He’s just so annoying.”

I’ve already won.

I’ve been told a lot of ridiculous things, but after the battle at the fourth level, it all boomeranged into the elf, and I’m satisfied.

It’s just too much trouble. It’s not a fun person to be involved with.

The walls began to glow and crumble, as if the other side had used some kind of magic, too.

I sent another round of magic to shape it up, then sent a layer of magic to make it stronger.

“That’s it. I’m going to need you to take me to the sixth level quickly.”

As I said it, Cyclops gave a small nod and began to walk down another path.
