Chapter 252 – Awakening (1)
“…There’s nothing to do.”
Most of the work was taken care of by the Silver Wolves and Wearhoneybees, and Hoaran and Carmina were working hard on the purification side, so I had nothing to do.
Lilith and Karura, who don’t have any talent for purification, seem to be busy clearing out the zombies around here, and Justitia, who usually spends her time just sleeping, these days… I used the pubic hair that had grown a lot from the previous pubic hair contest to create my artifact. I was busy strengthening Incheonho’s armor and dragon claws.
At first, I wondered what kind of pussy hair was used to strengthen the artifact, but…
From the beginning, the ‘Heavenly Tiger’s Armor’ was an artifact made by mixing Hoaran’s tail fur with his own scales, but when Justitia asked what it had to do with it, he had nothing to say.
It’s definitely the same as tail hair and pussy hair, but I wonder if there’s any difference.
However, I was curious as to what Justitia, who was able to create two artifacts in just three days, was holding on to for days on end.
I’m curious, but I was a little sad that Justitia didn’t tell me it was a secret.
“By the way, it’s really fast.”
It was still a really long way away, but it seemed like the ground that was full of purple, slimy slime had shrunk a lot in the past few days.
It has only shrunk, and although I still feel rotten, I have to say that it has improved tremendously compared to when I first came…
Hoaran said that if she continued to purify for another week or so, she would be able to plant the seed of the World Tree that Ariad gave her.
After that, it seemed that Hoaran and Carmina’s plan was to grow a world tree with the property of purifying the surrounding area in the first place, and use it as a medium to build a large-scale purification barrier around the area.
They were trying to break the curse and resentment that had been placed on this land and do something about the spirits that were bound there, but I had a headache and gave up trying to understand the explanations they were giving me.
I think it would be good to know that an ordinary shaman or wizard can purify a land that would take decades to purify in less than a few months.
Anyway.
It seemed that Jeonghwa would have to continue for a few more months, but I was very excited to hear that I would be able to see Ariad in a week.
I’m a little worried.
From then on, the mandatory defense battle will become more intense than it is now.
Still…
It didn’t matter because I was more happy about being able to see Ariad than worried.
“I’m bored.”
But aside from that, I was really bored these past few days because I didn’t have anything else to do other than the mandatory defense battle.
Since Justitia took the two artifacts, saying they would strengthen her, I am still only slightly stronger no matter how much I have manifested the gift… According to Lilith, I am only at a similar level to Aileya.
Of course, that doesn’t mean Aileya is weak.
It’s not like a B-rank level hunter can be said to be weak.
Just a few months ago, to me, the C-rank hunters who made up the majority of the Silver Wolves were great people, and the B-ranks, who were one level higher, were actually superhumans that made me wonder if they were people with blood flowing separately from their race.
Right now, Aileya is doing a good job of beating down the zombies, and even with the Hecatoncheires class, it takes a very long time, but Aileya could have killed them by herself.
I said that I am similar to Aileya at that level, so at least I am not to the point where people say I am weak.
But since they said they couldn’t feel safe at that level, they weren’t even allowed to help the Silver Wolves or Werehoney Bees to clean up the surroundings, so I was so bored.
“I can protect my body to some extent…”
Compared to before, I think I’m pretty good at it, but I decided not to do it because they told me not to.
I know very well that the reason everyone is trying to dissuade me is because they are worried about me.
Even if I’m bored, I have to endure it.
Instead, there was something I was doing these days.
‘Ammut. Stop sulking and talk to me. I’m bored.’
That was to annoy Ammut, who was still upset.
He still didn’t answer at all, but every time I spoke to him, there was a reaction from the inside.
‘I’m sorry for teasing you about how you stayed a virgin for over 10,000 years. ‘She could have been a virgin for 10,000 years, but please come out and I’ll apologize for everything.’
The sound of Ammut grinding his teeth was heard from inside.
Anyway, I was able to successfully get a response from the sulking Ammut, who was treating it like a daily quest today.
It was pathetic that I was wasting my time doing something like this because I had nothing to do, but I couldn’t help it.
Because I was that bored.
In fact, I knew that it would be better to be bored like now and torment Ammut for no reason than to have something happen, but being bored was still being boring.
At that time, a vibration rang in my back pocket.
“What.”
There was no transmission tower or anything, so I wondered if there was something in the place where the phone didn’t work, but it kept ringing, so I took it out and found that it was an artifact I had received on the first day for regular communication.
“Ah… Is it today?”
I remembered being told that I would be contacted once a week.
A week has already passed.
Thinking that time really flies, I activated the artifact roughly as explained before, and a voice came from the artifact.
-Ah, this is Han Yu-jin, a wizard from the central headquarters of Operation Purification. The person who received the call… Eh… Mr. Kang Han-jo…?
“Han Yujin?”
-Yes, yes… That’s right…
I thought it was a familiar voice, but it was Han Yujin.
Why do I become involved with this person so often?
Well, I thought it was better than someone I didn’t know.
“Does your affiliation change often?”
Anyway, when I asked that, I heard a confused sound for a moment, and then Han Yujin’s voice came again.
-Ah, ah… Yes… Because there is a severe shortage of wizards… All available personnel have been drafted for this task.
There was such a situation.
Even though he was a wizard, he was a civil servant, so he seemed to be fighting really hard.
I tried to sympathize with Han Yu-jin, who was dragged into various situations and torn apart, both in the last Narmer Kingdom and this time.
-In this matter, I… Um, should I say seniors… Anyway, those people are also about to come.
“Senior?”
-Yes, they are the witches of the Ivory Tower… Although they have now left the tower and are working for the world government, I heard that my seniors at the Magic Tower, whom I once had a relationship with, also participated in this matter… I also became involved for various reasons.
“Oh that…”
I barely managed to refrain from saying what I almost said, sisters with really big breasts.
When I thought about it, I couldn’t recognize the sisters’ outfits at the time because their breasts were so prominent, but it seemed similar to the witch costume that Han Yu-jin had worn before.
Moreover, although she was a bit lacking compared to her older sisters at the time, Han Yujin also had big breasts… Right?
What.
Are all wizards like that?
Come to think of it, I heard that most wizards create a circle around their heart to store mana.
Do your breasts get bigger because of that or something?
Otherwise, everyone wouldn’t have big breasts.
It’s not like you’re chosen based on breast size.
Even Justitia, a dragon known as the lord of magic, seemed to have the second largest breasts after Ariad and Carmina, which somehow made her more credible.
In fact, Justitia was the shortest among the three, so if you take that into account, she was also the most busty.
When looking at shamans or warriors who store or handle what is simply called energy or energy in other ways, I don’t see many people with noticeably large chests, so it is really stored in the heart. I didn’t know that it might have an effect on having big breasts.
I don’t know if it’s just my constitution or a coincidence…
What.
Does being a real wizard make your breasts bigger?
-Mr. Hanzo?
“Ah, yes. Sorry. “What did you say?”
-Yes, just to confirm… Can you tell me the coordinates of your current location?
“Ah yes. Wait a minute.”
When I roughly took out the artifact and gave it the coordinates, I heard the sound of someone taking a breath.
-…Are you really there right now? But… There…
“It went a little deep, didn’t it?”
-…In that case, most of the zombies would be of the Hecatoncheires level… Oh, no… As for Hanzo… Yes, there might not be any problem…
It’s not.
I think I’m overprotective, but thanks to my wife telling me to stay calm and stay in the safest place in case something happens while I’m grappling with those Hecatoncheires-level zombies, I’m going crazy from boredom.
Contrary to the wives who tried to protect me too much, it was Han Yu-jin who overestimated me.
Because I was talking as if it was natural that I would come this far, given my ability.
-But, I’m glad. There are already a few teams I can’t reach…
“Is it so?”
-Yes… The same goes for the seniors, the only S-rank hunter who participated this time, Mr. Ga-Org, and, ah… The team that was made up entirely of satyrs, we haven’t been able to contact them yet. There’s still time left, but…
By S-rank hunter, do you mean the half-troll warrior?
There was a buzz that he was the only S rank who participated in this purification, so I saw him once.
He was about 3 meters tall and was carrying a huge sword that was as tall as he was, so he left a deep impression on me.
No, wait…
“Satyrs? “There’s no contact from the satyr party?”
-Yes? Yes… This team participated as a small party of 10 people… Do you know anything?
“…No.”
I didn’t know anything in particular.
Although I saw Sati at that time, I ran straight to this place located deep inside Uriya. Sati’s party was heading in the exact opposite direction from us.
I didn’t expect to see Sati here, but apart from that, Sati went in a completely different direction, so I didn’t have a chance to talk to her.
…But they said they couldn’t contact me.
There’s something about this that makes me very uncomfortable.
“…Um, I’m sorry, Yujin Han? If I don’t hear from your team within today, could you please give me some news? Oh, no… If possible… Could you please send someone over there and check?”
-…Umm, yes. Well… That’s possible, but… Do you mind if I ask why?
“I know someone there.”
-I know someone… Among the satyrs… Ah…
Perhaps because she knew my job as a dispenser, Yujin Han became quiet as if speechless, and then I heard a sigh.
-Yes, yes… Then… I’ll send someone… And get back to you later after checking.
“Yes, thank you.”
Nothing will happen.
Just looking at Han Yu-jin’s reaction, it seems that there are few or no cases where he came as deeply as we did.
The zombies in the shallows were not only numerous, but the majority of the C-rank hunters, the Silver Wolves, could easily be caught, so it was clear that this was simply because they had not been contacted in time.
Hecatoncheires-class zombies are also large and strong, but they are rather dull, so it is not to the point where they cannot be removed with Sati-level skills.
“…”
Still, just in case, I focused on my eyes to check, and I saw threads connected to me.
There are two strands of thread leading to the area where Hoaran and Carmina are intensively purifying the area where they plan to plant the seeds of the World Tree, and Sing Sing is strengthening the artifact using the pussy hair of his wives that he cut off last time in No. 2. A thread connected to Justitia.
I immediately saw the threads connecting me to the wives around me.
In addition, I could see threads leading quite far away that seemed to belong to Aileya, who was around me, or Lilith or Karura, who were cleaning up the area.
Because we had gone a bit further away, we could also see threads connected to Ariad and Liliana heading towards even more distant places.
And, Sati…
“…Why is this over there?”
We could see the thread of Sati heading much deeper than us.
The thread has become so thin that it looks like it might break at any moment.
