Chapter 1041 – (Side Story)19. A Witch’s First Love (16)
Perennial snow ginseng (萬年雪蔘).
The snow, which has been hardened over a period of 10,000 years, beyond 1 year, 10 years, and 100 years, contains magical power of enormous purity within it, and is the supreme elixir that absorbs all the magical power of the ice cap and contains enormous vitality.〈 Br〉
“Perennial snow three. You eat it.”
“Are you kidding? “Are you saying you know how much it costs?”
When she first heard Eunhyeon explain the operation, Illyana dismissed his story her as crazy.
If you bring Perennial Snowspins to the Magic Tower, high-ranking wizards with plenty of money will be eager to buy it.
It’s a golden opportunity to earn credits and an astronomical amount of money at the same time, but to drink a legendary elixir whose existence can only be confirmed in literature.
It was an offer that Illyana could not accept.
Also, that is not the only problem.
“Simply taking an elixir doesn’t mean you can see its effects right away.”
Perennial Snow Ginseng is an elixir and poison that not only contains the essence of its enormous magical power, but also contains all the cold energy of the snowy mountain, which is its foundation.
“As soon as you take it, the cold inside the elixir will overtake your body and freeze all your organs, including your heart.”
The worst poison that will inevitably lead to death the moment you consume it.
The adventurers’ complexions turned pale after hearing Illyana’s explanation.
It was because she imagined what would happen to her body if she ate ice cream.
The plan to deal with the Yeti using Illyana’s magic, which included taking the elixir of Perennial Snowsam and strengthening its magical power, was already a story that had failed in its prerequisites.
“Listen. “This is not an impossible story at all.”
Even though Eunhyeon expected Illyana’s resistance, she smiled and persuaded her.
◆ ◆ ◆
Deep inside the cave.
Reaching the source of the icy cold, Illyana holds her mysterious legendary elixir in her hands and exhales nervously.
“Whoa…”
I’m not hesitating whether this is really the right decision.
If you decide to follow his strategy and suggestions her, what you need from then on is not doubts and hesitation, but determination to act.
Illyana gathered her thoughts through a deep breath and spoke to her adventurers guarding the front of her cave.
“Let’s get started!”
“Be sure to succeed! Lady!”
“Leave this to us and don’t worry!”
The voices of the adventurers resonate loudly from the entrance of the cave and can be heard all the way inside.
Hearing their confident voices, Illyana began to use her own magic to draw a magic circle on the floor.
“How did you come up with this…”
The magic circle of clear memory that seemed to be imprinted in Illyana’s mind was not a magic circle drawn by Eunhyeon in her drawing.
Complex magic techniques were drawn inside a circular magic circle drawn inside a large cave where dozens of people could lie down.
Each of those techniques is a device that separates and absorbs only the cold from the magic power that is scheduled to consume Illyana’s entire body the moment she consumes the Perennial Snow Ginseng.
It is a method that not even the wizard himself, nor anyone else in the Magic Tower, can think of, let alone implement.
Wouldn’t it be an absurd contradiction to think that the person who came up with this and suggested a specific method was an adventurer’s guide, not a wizard?
“And this…”
Spaces at regular intervals were intentionally created throughout the magic circle filled with complex spells.
The jewels received from Eunhyeon were placed there.
Eunhyeon explained that these jewels would provide the power necessary to activate the magic circle.
The amplification of magic using this gem was also very shocking.
Originally, magic was a magician’s special ability to interfere with and twist the laws of the world based on his or her magic and magic.
But this jewel magic twists that common sense.
This mysterious magic, which activates the magic imprinted in the jewel by infusing a certain amount of magical power, does not require the essential sense of magical power and understanding of magic that a magician must have.
Illyana’s mysterious ways intrigued her, but now was not the time to think about such things.
As soon as Illyana finished creating the magic circle, she came to the edge and took a position.
Taking a deep breath and making another decision, Illyana poured the chilly hemp into her mouth.
Wow
Illyana frowned as she chewed the root and felt the presence of the elixir moving down her throat.
“It doesn’t taste good… Tsk… !?”
As soon as she gets her first impression that it’s so tasteless, a huge chill fills her body.
The cold that travels through the esophagus and into the body travels through the blood vessels to the heart, freezing everything in her body.
She is far beyond the sense of ‘cold’, and the pain of ‘pain’ dominates her whole body.
“Uh, uh… !”
If the magic circle that was already in motion had not absorbed some of the torrent of cold energy raging inside Illyana’s body.
Illyana may have been frozen in her tracks, her entire body broken into pieces of ice.
As soon as she imagined it, she came to her senses.
“While you’re like this, move!”
She whips herself and activates the magic power within her body.
In the midst of the raging cold, she captures and absorbs the pure magic power that separates into a magic circle.
Does her own body freeze, subdues the swirling energy of her elixir and makes it her own?
It’s like a chicken race that only ends when one side ends.
While she was desperately trying to focus her mind and make the Elixir of the Icefall Three her own, Illyana recalled the words of her Eunhyeon.
‘It’s impossible! How can I do that?’
‘It’s possible. Because it’s you.’
I couldn’t understand what on earth they believed in and said such things.
‘Do you believe it? Genius wizard.’
Why do I fall for those ridiculous and flattering words and end up risking my life on such a foolish gamble?
Within the Magic Tower, he was the one who achieved the best grades among the students and was the most cool-headed and rational.
Something has begun to change.
Not just the situation or surroundings, but something in Illyana’s heart.
I didn’t have time to think deeply about what it was.
Coo!
The vibrations from outside the cave reached Illyana, who was busy absorbing the magic power of the elixir.
The face of Eun-hyeon, who is probably alone at the moment blocking the giant in the snowy mountain, comes to mind, and she bites her lip.
As she endured the cold that threatened to freeze her heart, she moved her mouth with difficulty, swallowing and storing the elixir.
“Wait just a moment…”
I’ll be there soon.
Although the words were not spoken in the end, Illyana’s obsession with her goal became deeper and stronger.
◆ ◆ ◆
There was no order or regularity in the yeti’s rampaging attacks.
The greatest violence that can be physically unleashed, like swinging a massive weapon with all your might.
Befitting its enormous size, a single punch or kick from the beast is enough to easily crush the frail human body.
Once.
Just once.
In the face of violence that, with just one hit, all bones in the human body can be crushed and organs ruptured, leading to death.
Coo!
Eunhyeon ran.
Without stopping, at full speed with all your might.
The sight of a series of attacks based on tireless stamina is nothing short of a disaster.
Order does not exist, and ‘order’ is found in the movements of giants who only run wild according to their physical limitations and instincts.
The habit of swinging one’s arms and legs.
Understand the monster’s instincts and nature based on its size and habits, and predict its next attack.
And the loopholes found in the predictions and predictions, the successful predictions.
[Siete Swordsmanship]
[Baekgwangilseom(白光一閃)]
A pure white line was drawn toward the gap that was captured while rushing into the arms of the rampaging beast.
Uraaaaa!
The sensation of a part of one’s body being cut is a pain that cannot be accepted.
It was a law that applied to all living beings, whether humans or demons, but there was one difference: from the Yeti’s perspective, Eunhyeon’s attack was not fatal.
Blood flows from the Yeti’s leg due to a single sword strike that risked his life.
The purple blood of the demonic beast flowing from the flesh cut off by tearing the tough leather made the demonic beast, the owner of that body, angry.
From the Yeti’s perspective, it is bound to be an object that causes intense stress and anger.
The physique, strength, speed, and even the durability and defense against attacks.
A situation where you have no choice but to have the upper hand in everything.
A single human, who appears to be nothing more than a small animal, manages to dodge his attacks and continues to inflict wounds on his body.
The wound itself was not fatal, but the pain that continued to build up and the frustration and stress of not being able to deal with the weak were enough to make the beast’s rational nature increasingly angry.
As if to express its anger, the yeti continues running across the snow-covered ground and swinging its fist at Eunhyeon.
“Tsk… !”
Eunhyeon could not help but groan.
It was good that he managed to sneak into his arms and cut off the yeti’s leg, but as expected, the difference in stamina was clearly visible.
Throwing one’s body into that merciless violence means willing to take the risks that come with it.
Immediately after the attack, they widen the distance and are busy preparing their posture to avoid the violence of the rampaging Yeti.
No matter how much you use thought acceleration to understand and predict the Yeti’s movements and constantly turn your thought circuit.
Even if you catch up with the physical strength of a gigantic beast with body acceleration and movements beyond human limits.
The reason we have no choice but to be pushed back in the battle of maintaining power is both the irrationality and the law of not being able to escape human limitations.
There is no time to breathe.
Blood and oxygen do not circulate in the head.
Nevertheless, I constantly think and move my body.
The moment when reason, thought, and movement stop.
The yeti’s violence will mercilessly strike Eunhyeon’s body and crush it.
It won’t be long before we continue to fight for our lives, like walking a tightrope on a cliff.
Krr?
“It was successful.”
Yeti and Eunhyeon both felt something strange at the same time.
As the fierce fight continued, the yeti, who was unaware that he was coming down the snowy mountain, felt something strange.
It must have been the sensitive instinct of the demon beast that sensed a change in the ecology of this snowy mountain that made him look up towards the summit, the source of the incident.
As soon as he felt the change, the yeti had no choice but to stiffen.
Because I saw something rising to the top.
It is not something like fear or panic.
Rather, it is a pure question that arises from the inability to understand the identity and phenomenon.
Soon the Yeti noticed that the climate of the snow mountain was changing.
The fierce snowstorm that had been covering the entire snowy mountain was concentrating on a single point at the summit.
The dot, which was so small that its shape could not even be identified, gradually expanded in size.
Just like rolling a snowball on the ground and expanding its size, it increases in size by absorbing all the snowstorm and cold air spread throughout the snowy mountain.
Eventually, the collection of cold air that had swelled to a gigantic size began to take shape.
It was a hammer.
A huge hammer of ice that looks as if it was carefully carved by an artist.
However, it was so large that it easily obscured the moon rising in the sky.
[Four-digit sub-magic]
[Blizzard Hammer]
A lump of mass that easily surpasses the physique of a giant.
Like a meteorite falling from the sky, it falls towards the Yeti at an incredible speed.
“You try it too. “You bastard.”
The low voice of the silver-haired human who had just been struggling was heard.
Although the yeti could not understand human language, he could understand the emotions contained in the voice.
This human is mocking himself as he retaliates against the avalanche that the Yeti intentionally caused.
Whoa, whoa!
The moment when the yeti let out a roar filled with anger and punched Eunhyeon.
Kwaaaaang!
The ice hammer that fell from the top of the snowy mountain hit the yeti first.
