Chapter 690 – Prince Chungwang (3)
***
─It’s hard!!!!
Kaedi listened to the sound of raw meat being crushed as if it were someone else’s business.
But it was never anyone else’s business. The one who shoved her away and got her forearm bitten by her worm person. Because it was Kaedi’s lover, not anyone else.
〈Kaedi!! Wake up!! Get up and run!!〉
Cried Kaedi’s lover as she stopped the bug-man from scratching her nails.
Her cold-hearted reason raised her up. Even if Kaedi, who has no fighting power, is left behind, she is of no help. It was a fact that only an idiot could tell.
〈Quit… !〉
However, if it were possible to abandon her lover only with reason, the story of a lover dying blinded by her love would not be common enough to be hit by her feet.
Ka Eddy finally abandoned her lover and couldn’t keep her feet.
〈Uhhhhh!!!
Pew-!
Raising her mana, Ka Eddy slammed the bug’s face with a clumsy magic she had only learned from her family.
“Kiiiii──!!”
The diplomat, who had turned into an insect, struggled as if the fire was frightening. In the meantime, Ka Eddy snatched her lover’s wrist.
‘Mmm, you idiot!! What are you doing to run away!!?
Grabbing her bewildered lover’s arm, Kaedi fled behind her.
It is a lodging. If it was an inn guarded by Count Wolfheddin’s wizards, it would be safe. Car Eddy, who was running after thinking so, stopped as if she had lost her strength.
Her face contorted as if she were about to cry as she let out a rough breath.
〈… Shit, I must have been late.〉
“Kigic!! Kigic!!”
“Kigic!! Kigic!!”
─Exactly! Right!
Her chin clenched as if threatening her, and humans turned into bugs surrounded Kaedi.
Even if she ran away without looking back from the beginning, there was no hope of survival.
“Kuaaaaacc──!!!”
The envoys, who had turned into bugs, rushed at them without giving them a chance to do anything.
She sacrificed herself for her lover, abandoned her lover, and failed to escape.
She was the end of a bunch of idiots who only made choices that lessened their chances of survival. Kaedi couldn’t even smile and muttered bitterly.
〈… Damn it. I wanted to get married by this year.”
〈… Yeah?〉
Hearing the unexpected reply to her futile muttering, Ka Eddy widened her eyes.
─Quaang!!!!
“Kyaaaaa——?!”
A gust of wind blew the bug-people everywhere like water swallows.
The man who completely blew away her encirclement landed in front of her. He was an extremely short adventurer for a man. The pale complexion was very impressive.
Kaedi’s lover screamed like a fan of adventure stories met the protagonist.
〈Key, Kiara Colido!!!〉
Said Kiara, tapping the toe of her shoe on the floor.
〈I came to the car when I was about to move accommodations after hearing a romantic shout. Because I have a clear ear for my age.〉
The fuss of the two lovers, who acted like fools, was heard by Kiara, who was moving to grasp the situation, and called for miraculous salvation.
Kaedi, who had her mouth open, noticed a bug-man rising up behind her on her back and tried to warn her. But faster than that, the bug man fired lightning. Kiara swung her sword behind her back as if she knew everything without looking. ─Quaaaaang!!! The power beyond common sense burst the air, shattered lightning, and stunned the Bug Man. However, Kiara, who unleashed such an attack, hardened her complexion. 〈… It’s magic You’ve inherited the abilities of the Infected. It’s more dangerous than you can imagine.〉 Kaedi, who was speechless for a moment at the stupid answer, shouted out loud. “Even if you don’t have any money, you throw it away and don’t keep it. I don’t like that, so I don’t even look for a party. Oh, I’ll use some artifacts. Stay with me.〉 Menkiara activated the artifact he was carrying with the two of them. Kaedi lifted his leg slightly to keep his foot from dragging on the ground. ‘Boo, Northwest! No, over there!〉 ‘It’s over there to the northwest. Yes. All right.〉 Quaang-!! The adventurer in the master class quickly jumped over the building with two people on his back. Kaedi thought she was fainting from her murderous acceleration, but then she noticed that the artifact Kiara had activated was what protected them. Kiara, who was dashing, found the delegation’s quarters and jumped right in. Although the barrier of the runes prevented outsiders from entering, the adventurer who had been adventuring for nearly 100 years just activated another old artifact from the golden age.
The three bodies passed through the barrier with the power of the artifact.
─Talk. It was a landing that made almost no sound, but the appearance was so splendid that the survivors drew attention.
Putting the two down, Kiara waved to the scholar who recognized her.
〈The air is a bit smoky to rejoice at the reunion, but it’s nice to meet you anyway.〉
“Did you come alone?!”
‘You are making fun of a seventy-year-old bachelor. My heart aches.〉
Kaedi’s lover, who overheard the absurd conversation, laughed.
─Kooung! He collapses like a drunk. Surprised, Kaedi shook him, touched his forehead, and was greatly surprised by the heat that seemed to burn him.
‘Why, why?! Hey! Wake up!〉
〈Have you ever been bitten by that friend, a bug man?〉
Is it because of the noisy military? A pureblood dwarf shorter than Kiara came running. The attire was that of a diplomat, but the star symbol worn around the neck was the mark of a priest.
Could it be the Nidavellir delegation? Kaedi swallowed.
〈… Yes Yes. But it’s not even a zombie! It doesn’t get infected or not to the extent of being bitten!〉
“It is not an infection. It’s parasitic.〉
The diplomat from Nidavellir spread his handkerchief. The thread-like insects were crushed and dead on the thin cloth.
〈When you get bitten by a human who turned into a bug, these parasites try to burrow into your body. Worse than zombies Regardless of magic resistance, if you are bitten, you will be parasitized.〉
Kiara, who was talking to Ashelad, looked at her bugs.
〈I strengthened insect-type monsters with curses and shamanic rituals. It does not contain mana, but its existence itself is no different from a magical creature.〉
‘I have heard of the sorcery called solitude. Do you know the habits of this insect?
〈Mushroom threadworm is a species endemic to Azteca. Originally, they are insects that control the behavior of animals or monsters that ate fungi. The Adventurer’s Guild classified it as a Platinum class monster.〉
Not because it was strong, but because it was difficult to eradicate or prevent.
Because preventing pests and diseases is the most important thing to explore the remote areas of Azteca.
The dwarf diplomat wrapped the handkerchief back.
Kaedi looked at her lover, forgetting to even breathe.
If an egg or parasite seeped into his bitten arm——
‘You have to cut it. Betimes〉
Seureung-.
The honest Dwarf resolutely held out his axe.
Kaede’s lover twisted his mouth in the middle of a haze at the anticipation of the ax blade.
The heroic determination was worthy of respect, but the answer came out about how many pests and pests in Azteca. Kiara took out an ampoule from the Putting the ampoule in her mouth, Kiara tightly tied the diplomat’s arm with a string. ‘Can I give you an injection? It is difficult to mass produce, so it is a little expensive.〉 He agreed without hesitation. Although he believed Kiara’s words, his survival rate would be higher if he relied on the world’s greatest adventurer than to cut off his arm while suffering from such a high fever. “This is a wise decision.” Push-! When Kiara released the ampoule syringe, he fainted and fell asleep. Looking at the lover who kept the ampoule he pulled out as if it were a souvenir of some kind, Kaedi rubbed his blanched eyes and greeted deeply. ‘Just call me Kiara. Isn’t the adventurer guild union president very long?〉 The half-dwarf adventurer wiped his hands and got up. ‘Call me Perlo too. Isn’t it time to discuss formalities?〉 ‘Yes, Mr. Perlo. Explain the situation to me too──〉 Kiara blinked his eyes and shut his mouth. In a corner of the inn, a woman who appeared to be a Narmer-Nile diplomat was beating someone. Germanian, missing her left arm, tumbled helplessly. Perlo twitched her face. 〈… Does Yatrau’s river have an ingredient that makes women poisonous?〉 〈Women in the southern province of Yatrau are a bit rough. Let’s hear it.〉 Kiara said. It’s about raising your voice in this situation. There must be a reason. ─Wheek! The woman who was shouting grabbed the helpless diplomat by the collar and stopped him.
〈… … .〉
It was only when the woman with a fiery temper for a diplomat tried to swing her fist once more. ─Puck! Someone intervened and slammed her fist into her face.
The difference in her strength was considerable. The opposite side did not hurt at all, but the woman backed away in surprise.
Seeing a sheep’s horn sprouting from his head, the Narmer-Nile diplomat was taken aback. Because just yesterday I saw him purify Atlantis.
〈… Count Wolfheddin’s Order of Wizards?〉
〈… There hasn’t been a formal compilation yet, but that’s not too wrong. In any case, the help of the guests is also someone for our master.〉
─Suck. A bicorn young man rubbing his lips and talking.
“So you’re going to let that bastard doze off without the world knowing?”
Her finger pointed at the bewildered Germanian diplomat.
The bi-corn wizard shook his head.
〈It’s not like you’re in a hurry to find your way through bleeding, wounds, and mental shock. If you are willing to talk, we can hear you with magic. Saira!〉
“Here you are, Laitlin.”
A bicorn woman, who was on high alert, came down.
She chanted her spell, face-to-face with the bewildered Germanian diplomat.
【God is the origin of all things (ōs byþ ordfruma ǣlcre sprǣce)──】
An incantation that borrows the power of the God of All Words. It was the same magic that Nord used when he showed Veronica an image of a descendant of the Celestial God.
As she chanted, she lifted her forehead and said.
〈It is said that he suffered a similar measles once in Germania.〉
〈… Is it almost impossible to find in the egg state?〉 Laitlin muttered desperately. Kiara stroked her chin and said. 〈Mushroom threadworms have a short lifespan. That’s what destructive survival means. The lifespan of an insect that has been strengthened with magic is probably 1-2 months at most.〉 The Narmer-Nile diplomat opened his mouth in a grimace.
Kiara thought about it but denied it. Even if that was the case, those who were parasitized due to malnutrition would die within a month. Treatment requires separate surgery. That is not the significance of the newly discovered fact. 〈In other words, the person who manipulated this worm failed to plant a new spy worm that was planted in Germania. This pandemic is just a one-time terror.” Laitlin’s eyes lit up. Kiara clapped. She was a tribute to him who answered correctly. ─Look back. Laitlin rummaged in his arms. Through Veronica, he also heard the story of the author, Prince Chungwang. He sympathized with his contempt for his ugly nature. Didn’t the person called Shaolai gather regularly to eat bug eggs and acquire the knowledge to serve Gulanarok while maintaining his personality? ‘A state of being neglected without going through the educational process and not being controlled.’ Infected people without an owner have only insect-level intellect. No, isn’t the being that manipulates a bug? If you leave it alone and put it under the control of the Grand Prince Chung, there is no way you can do anything to manipulate it. After considering the value of manned operations, he concluded.
