Chapter 85 – The Mermaid and the Milk Hunter
Hong Wol-yeong was awakened by Cheon-woon banging hard on the cabin door.
She had been completely knocked out from [Caressing], So even when she woke up, her mind was blank.
The reason I woke up in her lower sleeping bag. I looked more distraught than she was.
Rubbing her eyes, she tried to figure out what had happened in hindsight.
I felt a wave of strong magic power outside.
Only then did Hong Wol-young’s senses awaken, and she heard the siren’s song mixed with the sound of rain.
A monster has appeared.
She pulled her legs out of her sleeping bag and looked out the window.
Skyfortune turned on her lights, illuminating her sea surface.
That moment.
Pew!
The world has changed.
A blue whale swallowed the boat.
Having never seen her whale yet, she was thrown and blown up inside her boat, unaware of it.
Patter, Kugung, Kwadang!
[Shield]
The furniture in the cabin jumped up and crashed and broke.
She protected her body by deploying her basic magic, the magic shield.
Udang-tang-tang!
As the boat rotated inside the whale’s stomach, the inside of the cabin also rotated.
The world quickly turned upside down.
It felt like being trapped inside a cylinder that was spinning furiously.
I was swept and swept and fell headlong in the boat.
The reason I didn’t get her posture right. Like her, I was rolling around in her cabin.
Fortunately, the boat’s defense was high, so the hull did not break under moderate bumps and impacts.
It was a boat originally built to fight monsters.
As long as it is not directly attacked, it is not destroyed by being swept away by the sea and colliding here and there.
Hong Wol-yeong grabbed the crystal ball located in the center of the boat.
She was explained that if she put her magic into it, her automatic defense formula would be activated.
She generously poured her magical energy into the crystal ball.
Wei Ying.
The crystal ball shone brightly and spread a magical shield protecting the boat.
[You have defeated the Blue Whale (Class A Boss Monster) that swallows the twilight!]
Uh uh uh…
A system notification popped up, and the screams of monsters were heard from all sides.
The boat was ejected from the belly of the whale along with the sea water.
In the state of being swept away by the current, the crystal ball contained magical energy and endured, and the rotation stopped.
The boat was slowly rising upward due to the density difference.
Water pressure pushed the boat up from below.
Thud!
Thud!
The large fish monsters did not leave the boat alone and harassed it.
Hong Wol-young finished assessing her situation.
Here is the water
It had been swallowed up by the whale and spat out, and was now surging upwards.
She couldn’t open the cabin door.
The water pressure was so great that it was difficult to open it by force, but if you opened the cabin door now, seawater would rush in and drown everyone together.
Then.
You have to fight in it.
“Yuna, I’m blowing mana into this crystal ball!”
She looked outside and entrusted Lee Yoo-na, who was grasping the situation, to activate her defense technique.
Lee Yu-na started filling her crystal ball with her magic instead of her.
After confirming that her magic shield was strong, Hong Wol-young grabbed the inner wall of her cabin and let her mana flow outside.
As the ‘Mistress of Crimson Flame’, she could use flame magic according to her image.
A prominence spread out of the boat.
It became a red shield and burned all approaching fish monsters.
The water is heated by prominences and rises rapidly by hot convection currents.
It finally floated above sea level.
Fain!
The boat was protected by a crystal screen of flame.
After kicking out the cabin door, she spewed fire and reduced the attacking monsters to ashes.
Dark rainy night.
Her fireworks show was splendid.
[Wolyeongryu Magic: Phoenix]
A flaming bird flew in the sky.
After discovering Hong Wol-yeong, he turned into a monster and snatched the swimming Sirens from above.
Aagh! Aaaaagh!
A monstrosity that covers the sea.
The crowd of monsters that were burning everywhere ran away.
*
“Whoa.”
Finishing her battle, she swept back her red hair, which was tangled in disorder across her face.
I don’t even know how we fought because the situation was urgent.
The size of the enemy and how the war was going were still being figured out.
“What about heavenly luck?”
Lee Yu-na, who had been holding on to the crystal ball and protecting the boat throughout the battle, came out of the cabin.
Heaven was nowhere to be seen.
Hong Wol-yeong slowly frowned.
Before the world changed completely, I realized that Chun-wun was outside the cabin.
Like them, she did not stay in the cabin.
“Where have you been?”
I looked all over the place.
Only the corpses of the monsters came to mind, and they were making smoke.
Shoot aaaaa-
I heard the sound of rain.
Dark clouds were still thick and covered the sky.
Except for the dim lights on the boat, the view was full of darkness.
“Are you around here?”
Reason I wandered in and out of her cabin, combing through her for signs of heavenly fortune.
Not even a similar shadow was found nearby.
“Sister, haven’t you seen Cheonluck?”
“I was outside the cabin.”
To my question why, Hong Wol-young answered in a voice that she was not confident about.
She remembered clearly turning on the lights on the deck of the boat.
It was dark after that, so it was a problem.
Lee Yu-na’s expression quickly turned pale.
It was as if her mind had gone out of her mind in an instant.
“Sister. Heaven, Heaven…”
She stutters her words. It seemed that a bad premonition had come to mind.
“I must have fallen off the boat. You’ll still be fine. Let’s find it quickly.”
Hong Wol-young soothed Lee Yu-na, who was flustered.
Even if she fell off the boat, she was not expected to die immediately.
Since Cheonun is an S-class hunter that she recognizes, she should be safe even in the attack of these monsters.
It just mattered where she was.
If she was still in the water, there was a risk of drowning even for an S-class Hunter.
“Lee Yu-na, I’m sending a signal here with the lights wide open. I’ll look for it outside.”
Hong Wol-young told Lee Yu-na to guard her boat and she took her broom from her inventory.
She could use [Floating] Magic.
He rode a broomstick and flew through the sky.
Turning on the surface of the sea, I lit a light and looked around.
Just in case, he got into the sea to look for traces of heavenly luck, and searched the corpses of monsters.
I couldn’t find heavenly luck anywhere.
Inclement weather made navigation much more difficult.
I wandered all night looking for fortune.
…
The day was bright.
The rain stopped, the clouds cleared, and the mist dissipated.
My vision opened wide.
However, Lee Yu-na and Hong Wol-young were still looking for Cheon-woon.
“If he died, at least a corpse should come to mind.”
“Sister!!!!”
When Hong Wol-yeong made an ominous noise, Lee Yu-na shrieked.
She was half insane.
When I couldn’t see the sky luck, I blindly dived and searched for traces all night.
The reason why I became very sensitive because of fatigue and anxiety.
Hong Wol-yeong soothed me with her soothing voice.
“I didn’t mean it in a bad way. If Cheonwoon was attacked by a monster, it means we would have already found it.”
“Then… ?”
“If Cheonwoon was still alive, he would have come to us on his own after seeing our signal.”
“…”
Hong Wol-young considered another possibility.
If Skyfortune is neither dead nor alive nearby.
“The siren took the men.”
When mermaids see a man, they don’t immediately kill it.
They seduced them, made them slaves, and sucked their spirits.
After sucking up all the energy, it was only then that he ate it.
“The monsters that attacked us were clearly controlled by the Siren.”
“Sister, then you are saying that the sirens took heavenly luck?”
Lee Yu-na, who understood Hong Wol-young’s reasoning, asked.
“I think so.”
“Well, then what?”
“I’m sure he’s still alive, I’m going to rescue him.”
Lee Yu-na’s complexion brightened when she heard of Cheon-woon’s possibility of survival.
“The question is how long can Cheon Luck hold up against the Siren, but I heard that if she has high mental strength and a lot of mana, she will survive for a long time even if she is captured by the Siren.”
“Really?”
“I heard that there was a case where an S-class hunter with strong mentality endured for a month and returned alive. Cheonun is also an S-class hunter, so he should be able to hold out for a long time.”
Hong Wol-yeong thought that Cheon-woon would not easily fall for the mermaid’s temptation.
The [Enchantment] Process was required to suck the spirit.
Cheonun, who has high spiritual power, has never been [Enchanted] By a mermaid in the field.
“Right! Our Cheonwoon has no interest in women! She lives with me and has never done anything mean! I can easily defeat the temptations of mermaids!”
Lee Yu-na became more confident.
Mental strength was luck.
A well-behaved man would not suddenly do something obscene just because he was taken by a mermaid.
He firmly believed in fortune.
“Great. Let’s look for heavenly luck a little longer and attack the sirens if it’s not there. If you search the field, it must be caught somewhere.”
Their plans were made.
A journey to save Heaven.
It gave me strength.
“By the way, where are the sirens?”
“This is where the magic compass is pointing.”
“Who is driving? I don’t know how to drive a boat.”
“I don’t know that either.”
Hong Wol-young was a mechanic.
The reason was also far from boat driving.
“But if you don’t have heavenly luck, how do you wash now?”
“If I can’t get qigong treatment, I’m weak.”
The vacancy of Cheonwoon was larger than expected.
Their morale plummeted as they enjoyed an obscene milking life on the Siren Field.
*
She had been unconscious for a long time.
When she opened her eyes, her body was stretched and dried as if it had been salted.
Cut it, cut it.
He reached out and tried to lift her torso.
All limbs were restricted from movement by restraints.
Her wrists were handcuffed, and her ankles were shackled to keep her from falling off the wall.
I lifted her back and sat down on her back.
“Are you awake?”
A middle-aged man’s voice was heard.
He looked up and saw a man who looked just like me sitting against the wall.
“Where are you?”
I asked him
Consciousness was blurred.
He was beaten by mermaids and passed out in the water.
I had no idea what had happened to me.
“It is the island of the Little Mermaid.”
“Yes?”
“Speaking of the Little Mermaid is too romantic, and in fact it is the island of monster sirens.”
The old man cracked a joke.
“Ah, have we been captured by the Sirens?”
“Right.”
Little by little the situation made sense.
Why are you chained to such a prison?
The lighting is all sunlight coming through the square windows.
The inside of the iron cage where the Sirens imprisoned us was filthy and desolate.
Cut it, cut it.
Efforts were made to free the handcuffs and shackles.
No matter how much mana I injected, the restraints did not budge.
“It’s the Haeruseok used by mermaids. Suppress your magic and power.”
The uncle explained as if he understood my behavior.
I struggled and tried to force myself, but the handcuffs, whether it was Haeruseok or something, were unsteady.
“Then what should I do?”
I turned my head and looked at my uncle.
At this rate, there was absolutely no way to get out.
“What should I do? If I knew that, would I be doing this?”
The old man held out his handcuffs and shrugged his shoulders.
Listening to the circumstances, he has been locked up here for 10 days.
He was a B-class hunter escorting a trade ship, but was attacked and kidnapped by sirens.
“Are the sirens really sucking the essence?”
I asked the uncle
In 10 days of imprisonment, the monsters would have already done something to them.
I was worried about whether I would be fine even after being stolen by a mermaid with all of my semen, yang energy, and magic and power, which are collectively known as spirits.
“Haha…”
The uncle let out a liberating laugh.
His unruly hair hung down and covered his dark face, and his unkempt beard looked ragged.
Deep dark circles, lifeless smile.
For a B-class Hunter, he was quite skinny and emaciated.
It didn’t look like it was original.
“I will give you a piece of advice to those of you who have just entered today.”
“Advice? What is it?”
“If you can’t avoid it, enjoy it.”
