Chapter 96 – Memoirs (6)
One.
Freezing the air within the trajectory it had passed, the spear of snowflakes that fluttered white frost like a tail flew away with the momentum to pierce the deep shining crimson orb.
Even the intense heat emitted by the sphere could not stop Snow Flower – Verkana.
It easily dissipates the heat that blocks him, and the snowflake spear that flew in with the same speed and momentum as when it was first shot out is about to pierce the crimson sphere.
Hwareuk
A flame the size of a candle bloomed exactly in the trajectory of the spear point.
The flames, incomparably more incomparable to the fireballs shot by the A-class monsters and flame giants that the team members faced before, seemed too small and insignificant to block the snowflake window.
However, the moment that small flower of fire bloomed, I had a hunch that my snowflake spear would not be able to reach the sphere.
Cheeeee!!!!!
As expected, the moment it touched the small spark, the snowflake window collapsed powerlessly and evaporated as if the momentum had been false, and it was clear that the world was not all about what it could see.
It was impossible for my snow flower – Berkana to be blocked by a small flame the size of a finger.
If that flame was the one I’ve seen so far.
The flame that blocked my snowflake window was, of course, not an ordinary flame.
A truly super-heated flame that concentrated all the heat into one point that even the super-large flame giant of the dungeon boss couldn’t create.
The flaming white light that ferociously rotated around the dungeon core like a satellite was proving it.
Although the super-large flame giant used blue flames earlier, it just changed the color to make it more plausible, and the temperature wasn’t that high. It was enough to suppress my cold. But that white flame… It’s real.
Unlike the blue water flames that added mana for the superficial appearance of a super-large flame giant, the white flame that melted my snowflake window and completely evaporated it was a natural white flame because of its high temperature.
The fact that white flames bloomed to protect the dungeon core meant that the dungeon masters would appear who would use those white flames.
A flame that instantly melts the snow flower of the Julie family, and an opponent who handles that flame freely.
“I have to come out like that so I feel like fighting.”
It was perfect to decorate the first page of the S-class legend of Grafis Julie.
Woooooh
Along with the unusual wave of mana, all the flames that had been burning all over the kingdom of fire were gathering around the dungeon core.
The spectacle of all the sparks that made up the world gathering in one place in flames to protect their origins was so spectacular that even I, who had to risk my life in the near future, watched in a daze.
The fire clouds that filled the sky, and the fire storms falling backwards from the center began to converge on a single point centered on the white flame.
I don’t think it’s two or three times the size of a super-sized flame giant.
It was a sudden thought when I saw a cloud of fire covering the entire sky within my field of vision.
The moment I thought about that, I remembered Exit Line’s words that there is nothing strange about anything happening in an S-class dungeon, but it was already too late to follow her words.
I can’t even find the exit, and since I’ve touched the dungeon core, I can’t get out unless I defeat the dungeon lord. It’s too late to regret it, but it’s still too early to regret it.
“Lapis Julie! This is not it! Fucked! No matter how strong you are, if you’re alone, you can’t face the whole world by yourself… Keugh?!”
I heard the urgent voice of Exit Line from behind, and I was interrupted to say whether I had been attacked by fire in the middle, but I ignored it for now.
Concentrating on gathering mana, and contrary to what she thought as her weakling, I felt that it was worth trying.
Match.
Without saying a word, I put my two palms full of mana together, and made a half turn around her palm to sign.
It is simple, but the philosophy and mana contained within it are not simple, a secret technique passed down only to the legitimate successors of the Julie family.
Ohui (奧義) – Snow Flower Dance
Each of the ten fingers spread in their own direction becomes petals of snow and blooms in their respective places.
Just like its name, flying wild snowflakes, he carved that image into her heart and used her mana like her paint to draw the scene in her heart into the present world.
Shit. Damn it. Shit.
The number of bloomed snowflakes is ten.
Considering that he easily defeated the super-large flame giant, the boss of the S-class dungeon, with just one snowflake, it was a truly enormous force, but according to his intuition, it was unclear whether he could face the world with just ten.
In my heart, I definitely want more flowers to bloom…
“That is too dangerous.”
The number of snowflakes I can use while moving is ten. If you go beyond that, your movement will be restricted, and the speed of making snowflakes will also slow down.
It would be possible to make a lot of snowflakes bloom faster if I just stood still and was not disturbed by anyone, but doing so in a dungeon, and in front of the Dungeon Lord, who was born from the unity of the flames of the world, was an act of suicide.
That’s why it was best to use ten snowflakes as efficiently as possible to defeat him.
Roaring!
The flames of the world that converged to one place to protect the dungeon core became a large sphere and emitted a brighter white color.
It looked like an egg engulfed in flames.
Seeing the white flames blazing on the surface of the sphere, it seemed that even if he poured in his attacks now, he would not be able to deliver an effective blow.
If that’s the case, let’s aim for the moment when he breaks out of the sphere. No matter how strong the dungeon lord is, there’s no way he could withstand the cold with ten snowflakes.
I felt much stronger mana than expected from the sphere containing the dungeon master, but that made me even more excited.
The stronger the opponent, the greater the joy and reward when you overcome.
The last warrior in the dungeon created by gathering fire from all over the world. If I single-handedly defeat such a ruthless enemy, my status and honor will increase that much.
That alone was enough reason to fight the enemy.
For the successor of a high family, honor and status are as important as life.
For an opponent who might be able to win with all my might, I gathered the power I can use now, ten snowflakes, and weaved them together in one place.
Since each snowflake contains a huge amount of mana and cold energy, it was quite difficult to change and combine all ten snowflakes at once, but it was not impossible.
“Whoa… It’s done.”
A giant spear of snowflakes made by tying together ten snowflakes to stand against all the fires in the world.
The total amount of chill itself was different from that of a single snowflake spear that melted in vain in white flames.
Ten times the number of snowflakes melted by simple calculations.
So, with this great spear of snowflakes, it should be able to deliver a fatal blow to the dungeon master of white flame who will come out of the sphere.
The moment I break out of the sphere, I will freeze it and penetrate it.
The time when the dungeon owner even stopped breathing to focus only on coming out of the egg.
Shit.
The sphere of white flames split open, and fierce flames began to rise through the small cracks.
The intense heat and mana felt from the skin, the birth of the dungeon master.
Even though we are quite far away, this heat, this mana. It’s an opponent that’s not lacking to pour my full power into!
When I found a space where the tip of the spear could enter through the gap, I spat out the starter word of the snowflake giant spear without hesitation.
“Freeze and pierce.”
Snow Flower Dance – Dos Vercana
The mana contained in the snowflake giant responded to the starter word filled with will.
The will that Mana received was freezing and penetrating, and in order to realize the two purposes, the snowflake giant became a white flash of light.
———–!!!!
Everything within the moving trajectory, even the sound of the air freezing, froze and pierced, and the snowflakes rushed at such a speed that the sound could not even keep up with them.
Aaaaa!!!!!
Extreme cold and extreme heat collided with each other, but it wasn’t a javelin that could be stopped with just that much repulsive force.
As expected, unlike before, the Snowflake Geochang did not lose its shape and chilliness.
Rather, it was on the sphere side that the heat it possessed faded away.
The moment the snowflake giant spear pierced through, the white flame of the sphere created by gathering all the flames in the world lost its momentum in an instant, and the sphere froze in vain and collapsed as it was.
The spleen that the Dungeon Master had created right before breaking out of the sphere, and the spleen strike aimed precisely at that gap.
Everything was as expected.
“Whoa. It’s more boring than I thought, but it’s because I have a partner.”
No matter how much it was made by gathering all the flames that made up the S-class dungeon, the Kingdom of Fire, it was only natural that it would end up like this in the face of the Julie family’s mystic tales and my cool and precise judgment.
A rare Awakener who freezes and annihilates even the dungeon master, who is much stronger than average, before seeing the light of day.
That was me, Lapis Julie.
You’ve dealt with even the strongest enemy. Now let’s see Exit Line’s surprised face.
With my shoulders full of strength, I turned my gaze away from the shattered orb containing the dungeon lord in a frozen state and looked at the Excitrine behind me.
She was assaulted by her flames while I was using Snow Dance, her gray hair black at the ends.
Even so, he seemed to be fine once he overcame it well.
Even the dungeon lord can’t compare to me, who killed me in one blow, but it’s S-rank, so I shouldn’t be able to overcome that much.
At the time when the expression of excitraine was barely maintained in my mind, she hesitated a little and opened her mouth a little with difficulty.
“·····It really surpasses common sense in many ways. Lapis Julie.”
As expected, EXIT LINE had an expression of disbelief, not different from what I expected.
I looked at her astonished and laughed leisurely at her, then put in her mouth one of the truths of the world that she must know and protect as she lives.
“The bigger the imagination, the better. Maybe the manager’s imagination was too small? How about increasing the size of your imagination from now on?”
“Really dog cheeky. I feel like my common sense is shaking. But, I guess it’s okay for you. Yes… I also said earlier that S-class dungeons are always beyond imagination, so if it’s your words that surpassed the enemies beyond imagination, I’ll have to accept it.”
Excitrine took my advice with a slightly downcast spirit.
Her appearance made me feel a little better, as she looked like a lion who had been defeated in a power struggle.
That’s how I achieved a perfect victory for the dungeon master and the team leader. It was a natural result.
It was a natural result, but I couldn’t help but feel better since I defeated the most powerful enemy I’d ever met in my life with a fairly easy hand.
In the end, I, the main character of this place, got rid of everything by myself. I’m satisfied, too.
I couldn’t hide my excitement and reminded Exit Line, who accepted the advice but still had a dissatisfied look on her face, what she had to do.
“Then, since it’s all over, shall we go break the dungeon core?”
“Dungeon core… Yes, we have to destroy the dungeon core. Yes. Even the kids who fell behind are called…And the pasta outside…”
However, the state of Exitrine was a little strange.
As if she was deeply concerned about something, her muttering with slurred words was not normal even at first glance.
“The dungeon master of an S-class dungeon is so easily defeated? The one that was created from all those enormous sparks? Is that possible?”
Then, all of a sudden, words that she couldn’t bear to flow came out of her mouth.
“There is also something strange. It can’t end like that.”
“I beg your pardon?”
“As you can see, it is. No, Lapis Julie, you’re new to S-class dungeons, so you don’t know. The dungeon master of S-class dungeons has always exceeded my imagination. The glacier dragon that Scar Rait fought against, and the red titan I managed to catch with the guild leader were all. The S-class dungeon master is not weak enough to be defeated with a single javelin. You have to figure out what went wrong and come up with a plan again…”
“Chief, no, Mr. Excitrine. I can’t listen anymore.”
“What?”
Envy, jealousy, mistrust.
Faced with a reality that transcends her own cramped common sense, her mask was eventually lifted and her hidden emotions leaked out.
As for the exit line, she didn’t believe that I had dealt with the Dungeon Master of the same level as the S-Class Dungeon Master that she and the guild leader risked their lives to defeat, with just one javelin.
I couldn’t believe it. If you believe that and admit that I dealt with it once and for all, the value of myself who risked my life fighting with such an opponent would decrease.
But even so, it was just really ugly to use the group like a child.
For a moment, thinking that Exit Line was a rare wise elder these days, she felt sorry for herself.
She knew she was like this in the first place, so she had no reason to listen to her anymore.
I glanced at the exit line with her cold eyes, reminding her of the reality she was struggling to deny.
“Whatever you say, the results prove it. That I defeated the dungeon lord with my own strength. In that situation, no matter how much you deny it, you will only become ugly.”
“But it’s really strange…”
Despite saying this, Exit Line did not know how to accept her reality. I let out a deep sigh and said my last words that she would probably hear.
“Please wake up, Exit Line.”
There was no point in further conversation.
I ignored the words of the exit line and turned her body toward the core of her dungeon.
Destroy it quickly and go out to become S-class. Then you wouldn’t have to be with such a pathetic person.
The moment I prepared to retrieve the huge spear of snowflakes I had shot and launch them toward the dungeon core.
Hwareuk.
At the same time, I heard the sound of sparks blooming from the direction of the dungeon core, so small that I couldn’t hear it unless I concentrated on it.
“Uh?”
A long, long white flame that could have divided the world was falling towards the top of my head.
The flames were so fast that they burned red flames and evaporated everything that passed by, and I, who was concentrating on manipulating the snowflake giant, couldn’t avoid it.
Nonsense.
The moment I touched it, my future split in half without any resistance was clearly visible before my eyes.
To die like this? I? The successor of the Julie family, the famous Lapis Julie?
Faced with inevitable death, there was nothing I could do but deny it.
I closed my eyes tightly to the terrible future that had already been decided.
Chii Yii Profit!!!
A terrifyingly clear sound rang in my ears.
