Chapter 152 – 1. Talos, and the Spear and Shield (6)

I’m free…

It’s not that she doesn’t have work to do, but she still lives a more secluded life than her young daughters, and while Allen was wandering around her, she accidentally ran into Er.

Could it be that she has nothing more to do than herself? Or is it because she feels that she is alone and alienated in the current situation where nothing is right for her? Er’s expression was so lonely that he even looked depressed.

“Er, what’s wrong? Are you bored?”
“Sister Allen…”

Er immediately looked at Allen and puffed out his cheeks.

“Yuria unnie is also very nice. She hasn’t played with me at all for the past several years.”
“Haha…”

At the sight of Er, who was complaining about her loneliness, Allen let out a small smile of her own, and she herself sighed.
Come to think of it, she herself was in a similar situation to Er.

Cashewwin also fell asleep as soon as he got home from a difficult and busy day like every day, so he couldn’t remember the last time they had slept together.

She herself was still in the peak of her desires, but Cashwyn didn’t relieve them in the slightest, so for some reason she was bubbling with tea.

But even if she did, it wasn’t that she didn’t understand.
The Crimson Anthra was busily moving while facing a cataclysm.

Not just Cashew Winn, but also her own two daughters and Yuria’s two sons.

She just she herself In this busy situation, she didn’t have much to do, so she was free. Doing.

She said that if the threat of Crimson Ant were to come a little closer someday, she would go on reconnaissance activities herself, but she had nothing to do other than self-development.

In comparison, her position in Er was more ambiguous than her own.

She is the wife of Cashew Wynn. Cashwin is Loa’s uncle.
In other words, she went beyond the fact that she was with Yuri’s son, and she was actually a family with Yuri’s son.

Her Yuria’s work is her own. Since her job is Yuria’s, she wants to intervene more actively than she does in this case, but she has nothing to do. It’s unfortunate that she didn’t, but she was different.

Literally, she is here, and the reason why she is with her is only because of the sense of kinship she feels with Yuria. The feeling she had with the other members of her group was that they were friends with YuRia, and they were not her family, or her almost family, like the other members of her group.

Floating alone in her lack of belonging, she was experiencing loneliness alone.

“It can’t be helped. YuRia is also separated from Roa, who would never leave her normally, and she is only with her at night.”

I don’t know if they were hectic, but they were really envious of that one thing.
Cashwyn, now entering middle age, was so tired that she couldn’t do anything about it, but Roa, who was still lively, seemed to satisfy YuRia every day.

Big hum. When I heard her passing by at dawn once, it was more like she was dying rather than saying she satisfies it.
No no big!! These days, I’m frustrated or I keep thinking in strange ways.

“Blood…”

No matter how much it was, she couldn’t help but feel sorry for Yuria, who didn’t pay attention to her.

“After all, this is all about Crimson Ant.”
“Yes”
“Then, if I bring the specimen of Crimson Ant, it will help in research or preparation of countermeasures, and then things will be resolved faster, so won’t the day when YuRia unnie plays with me come sooner?”

What did Allen say at that? And she looked at Er.

I know?
There have been many comments about Crimson Ants being strong, hard shells, etc., But not much was known about exactly how powerful Crimson Ants were.

I was just preparing the power to a slightly excessive level, thinking that it would be roughly this much.

However, there were concerns that even this would work properly, so in many ways, more diverse, colorful, and stronger responses were still being researched and prepared.

“Finally, we have a subspace bag, and the two of us can easily catch a few ants like that.”

At Er’s words, Allen sighed and pondered for a while.

“Then shall we go?”
“Wait a minute. I have to recharge my flying artifact and prepare for this and that.

If it was like before, let’s go right away! She would have been Allen, but once she became the mother of her child, she certainly softened that personality a lot.
What mattered most to her was her own child, and her own well-being was very important to her, unless her children were in danger.

Even if she is not confident, she will definitely be watched over by Yurina and others, but what should she do with her own vacant place for her children?
If she thought so, she couldn’t easily take even the slightest risk.

“What is that…”
“You’ll understand when you become a mother too.”

Err grumbled at him.

“Perhaps you will understand someday. It will still be in the distant future, but the day will come when you too will become a mother of one child. Maybe you will become a mother of two children like me.”

Er, who was in a hurry to recharge her magic tool, did it first, and Allen said that she might worry if she couldn’t see herself, so she told Cashwyn that she was going to go scouting for Crimson Ant with Er. And she asked if there were any caveats to her.

“It’s a sample… Just give up on the sample. If you’re bitten by even a single crimson ant in one part of your body, you’ll be torn apart in an instant by the crimson ants that rush into the herd. If you’re aiming for it, aim for an individual that’s hundreds of meters away from the herd. And You absolutely have to be careful with the big jaws. I heard that those big jaws are strong enough to bite off even dragon scales.”

At those words, Erdo Cha also made her complexion slightly pale.

“D-Dragon too?”
“It’s not like that, but even dragons are said to be eaten by the Crimson Ant if their magic is sealed.”

Erdo, whom she had thought was no big deal until now, seemed a little nervous at those words.

Creatures that even dragons might be dangerous if it weren’t for magic.
Because the creature called the Crimson Ant was said to be such a creature.

“Then aren’t all those wagons useless?”
“That’s why it’s important to have that big jaw in a shape that can’t be bitten off. Because there is a limit to the angle at which you can open that big jaw.”

Cashwyn pressed her thumb and forefinger against the stone wall, opening and closing her thumb and forefinger as hard as an ant’s mandibles, ready to bite, but she only pathetically poked at the wall.

And seeing that figure, Er and Allen understood with an ah.

“That’s why the surface has to be very smooth and wide.”
“Then how can a dragon not do it?”

Cashwyn shrugged her shoulders at that.

“I don’t know about that. It’s just that there’s a saying. But it’s really true that the crimson ant’s mandible is stronger than the dragon scale.”

At those words, Allen and Er fell silent again.

“Fortunately, Crimson Ants are known to not dig tunnels once they start coming out as a colony, and only see what they can see, so if you’re aiming for a separate individual, you can also aim for samples. But don’t force yourself to aim for samples. Other than the mandibles, it’s not known how strong the carapace is, but at least the Crimson Ant has bounced off the ground before, and the Crimson Ant has been defeated even then, so it’s going to work somehow.”

At Cashwyn’s words, Allen nodded her head slightly, and Er shook her head after thinking about it for a while.

“Huh?”
“Let’s just give up on the sample. Let’s just do reconnaissance and come see Allen.”

At those words, Allen looked up at Er.
What the hell is going on

Arlen and Cashwyn quietly waited for Er’s next words, seeing Er’s expression as if he had made a firm decision with a very serious expression.

“To visit her mother. She must be a mother, then she would know how she defeated the Crimson Ents.”
“”Ah!””

Turns out, I forgot.
Er’s mother was a dragon who lived for thousands of years.

If so, maybe this wasn’t the first time she’d faced a Crimson Ent.

“If her mother doesn’t know, she’ll find out by asking other adults.”
“Er…”
“If the Crimson Ant really can eat even a dragon, then this isn’t a danger only to humans. And above all…”

With her fearful eyes, Er shook her head as she looked at the works she was making, saying that they were countermeasures to Crimson Ant.

“If you can really bite off even a dragon’s scales, you won’t be able to withstand it for long even if you make it difficult to bite it with its morphological characteristics. At this rate, you will never be able to stop it.”

At those words, Cashwin was silent.

“To Yuria. Please tell everyone. I’ll tell her mother the rest.”

She fluttered, spread her wings, and flew up into the sky creating a gust of wind using her flying magic.

*  *  *

Air rose high in the sky toward her mother’s lair and flew as fast as her arrow. Before she knew it, she dyed the inside of the forest black, and cold sweat flowed down her face at the sight of the crimson ants, like a tidal wave.

It was a stupid idea for her.

As Cashwin said, if you approached it the wrong way, you wouldn’t be able to find a bone.

Was she trying to throw her body in front of such a catastrophe?

As she did, Elle raised her altitude and speed even more, while flapping her wings even more strongly.

To get to her mother as soon as possible.

By the time the sun was about to go down, she was in her mother’s rare.
No, she arrived at her mom and dad’s house, which was built near her lair. She already noticed that she was coming. The sight of her father made her heart ache a little.

She obviously loves her mom and dad, too, but for some reason she couldn’t really see her mom or dad as her own, and that’s why she felt more identified with her. Went into the human world.

In front of her mother and her father, who are so kindly facing her selfish daughter, her heart is filled with er.

“It’s been a while, my daughter.”
“Mom…”

She, who was with her own husband in the form of her elf, silently hugged her Er.

“So, my daughter. What happened to her so quickly?”
“Mom… Did you know that Crimson Ants have appeared?”

At those words, she felt her mother’s body tremble and stiffen.
No, she wasn’t just a mother. Even her father’s bright smile stiffened and subtly changed.

“What, what appeared?”
“Hey, Crimson Ant.”

Her father, who was still sitting in his chair, jumped up from his seat.

“Oh my God… That terrible catastrophe reappeared? Couldn’t it have been completely finished then?”
“Dad? What kind of existence is Crimson Ant?”

The answer came from her mother, who was hugging her er.

“The demon king and demon of gluttony. One of Beelzebub’s three clans. That’s Crimson Ent.”
“Yes?”
“Who the hell is that? Surely the cursed book was sealed tightly by our dragons in ancient times, but who the hell…”

She raised Er’s shoulders tightly and met Er’s eyes, revealing the vertically split dragon’s pupils, not the usual benevolent expression.

“Uh, Mom?”
“Eruya, don’t participate in this matter. They are really dangerous.”
“Mom…”
“No matter what I say, I will never listen to them this time. They are that dangerous. They are bloody black disasters that even us dragons can never safely see…”

Her mother’s words scared Er, but she still gritted her teeth and opened her mouth.

“No. As Mum says, even if she doesn’t come face to face with them, her friends should be informed about them.”

At that, she let out a sigh of relief.
And before I knew it, the parchment was summoned from the air, and texts and pictures were quickly engraved on the parchment, and before I knew it, the parchment was processed into a book and held in her hand.

“This is a book that summarizes all the information your mother knows about Crimson Ant. Er, just tell me this and come home right away. Mother will never let you go until she promises in words.”
“Uh, Mom…”

Er hesitated for a moment at her words, but eventually nodded her head.

[I promise you, I will definitely deliver this book to her friends and come back home]

“Yes. I’m sorry Erya. Then come back early tomorrow morning.”

As it was, Er was taken aback by the brightly shining magic circle beneath Er’s feet.

Eh, is this a teleport magic circle?

“Oh, um!”

Paaaaa -!!

*  *  *

The moment I thought the magic circle was shining, Er had already arrived at Yuria’s mansion.
Apparently she didn’t know exactly where she was.

That’s why it seems that her mother sent her to this place where she used to live.

Visor! Chaechaeng!!

Kyaaaaa!!
Aww!!

The sound of all kinds of weapons and people’s screams coming from somewhere.

Her ears pricked up and flinched at the sound, and she hurriedly spread her wings in that direction and flew away.

And there, although not Crimson Ant, the soldiers and villagers who had previously supported the village from the Count’s family were desperately resisting the monsters who ran madly towards the village with various agricultural implements in their hands, but the monsters were also The momentum was so desperate.

Seeing how many people had already died in that moment, Er flinched and trembled for a moment, but hurriedly pulled out the staff from behind her waist, pulled the decoration, hung it from the bottom of the staff, and activated the transforming device.

Holding up his own weapon that had turned into his bow, Er concentrated his mana.

“To my sister’s village…”

Ching! Chiing!!

“Where are you putting that trashy foot!!”

The magic arrow from Er’s arrow exploded between the monsters like a flash, and a huge explosion occurred between them, sweeping away many monsters in an instant.

At that moment, the soldiers looked up at the sky and exclaimed at the sight of Er.

They also knew who Er was.
A member of the owner of this territory and a renowned A-class adventurer.

Normally, he only looked like a child, so he didn’t really touch his strength, but everyone said that he would be the second strongest among the lord’s party.

Ching! Chijing! Ching!!

Suddenly, the arrow caught three arrows at once, and Er pulled the bowstring as far as he could.

“Get lost!!”

Wedge-Ae-Aeg -!!

Quagga River -!!!!

As the sun went down, it dyed the ground red and filled the surroundings with scarlet flashes.

Bang! Kwagang!!
Pew!!

How long did he endure with Er’s support? Finally, as if the monsters believed that it was impossible to penetrate this village, they went around the village and split left and right and passed by.

There was still some room, but considering the remaining magic power, if the monsters came to the end like this, it was impossible to guarantee the village.

Because the situation was so urgent, he focused on firepower rather than magic efficiency and fired arrows with extended explosion magic, so his magic attribute was quickly depleted and he thought it was dangerous, but luckily the monsters were afraid of him first and avoided the village. Relieved, Er quietly landed in the village.

“Is everyone okay?”

There was something strange about the expressions on the villagers’ faces.

It wasn’t just that some villagers had died, but Er’s expression as if he had committed some serious crime suddenly made him feel uneasy.

“Wait… Where is Uncle Merkin? Ar? Ner?”

At those words, the villagers lowered their heads, avoiding Er’s gaze even more.

“Oh, isn’t it? Isn’t it? Isn’t it?”

Er’s mind turned white at the sight of the villagers and soldiers who were still horribly silent.
No. Not as much as those three.

Merkin was very dear to her sister and Loa, and Arwaner was really dear to Allen.

“Ar is… While fighting alongside the villagers… And Mr. Merkin was protecting the villagers from the goblins that invaded the village… And Ner…”
“…”

Er was able to understand what had happened even if he didn’t have to say anything after that.

Considering the characteristics of monsters called goblins, it was obvious what Ner would have suffered without seeing it.

“So… Is Ner still alive?”
“…Dead”

At those words, Er gritted his teeth, but on the other hand, he thought that maybe it would be better if he hadn’t been in this situation at all, or that he might have been lucky that he died in the current situation.

There was only one ending for the women who were taken away by the goblins.
It is only a breeding ground for calling their species.

It really is a fate worse than death.

“Even so… It’s fortunate that I wasn’t taken away…”
“…”

The soldiers and villagers all tried to avoid Er’s gaze with a bitter expression on their faces.

More than anything.

What will Yuria, the owner of this land, do now?

The villagers were afraid of it.
Because I knew very well who was responsible for making the village so developed and safe.

In a chaotic situation like now, if this small village is abandoned by Yuria, what will be the fate of the village?

This village had committed a great sin against Yuria in the past.

It gave me indescribable humiliation, insults, and pain.
They even made the village headman’s son suffer humiliation because they couldn’t properly take care of him.

In the meantime, what will Yuria do now that Merkin, almost the only person who allowed her to stay in this village, has died.

Obviously, she would stay if the loa would stay in this village, but the problem was that the loa did too.

In particular, Merkin was the only person Roa had a proper bond with in the village, and above all else, what kind of judgment would Roa, who thinks and looks at this world centered on Yuria, if Yuria really wants to leave?

The villagers already knew, although somehow they didn’t want this news to reach them.

It was impossible for them to stop, let alone overcome, the little girl in front of them.
