Chapter 52.1: Hallmenta (3)
In the middle of a dark forest, a man and a woman were sitting in front of a bonfire.
A man with various weapons on his waist and a woman in a thin robe.
Next to them lay the corpse of a giant wolf that had been mutilated and dead.
As if used to it, the woman sliced off the monster’s flesh with her dagger and put it on the fire, whistling and waiting for the meat to be cooked.“Just because it’s a monster from the demonic land doesn’t mean that you will die if you eat it. Some people say it tastes much better than the meat of ordinary animals.”
The man did not respond to the woman’s words. He just stared at the burning meat full of dissatisfaction.
She clicked her tongue and fumbled through the meat skewers.
“So, we’ve come all the way to the central area, what are you going to do from now on?”
“I need to find it.”
“So, what’s the detailed plan? You’ve been keeping your mouth shut all the way here.”
“There is no such thing. Search all of Hallmenta to find it and kill it. That’s all.”The woman sighed in response to the man’s ignorant answer.
“I told you, what kind of place is the demonic land? A stronger monster could have killed and eaten it by now. So what would you do then?”
“If you’re going to keep meddling like that, you should have not followed me here.”
She furrowed her brows in dissatisfaction.
“Did I tell you not to talk like that?”
“···”
“Rand was a precious colleague who was like family to me. His older brother suddenly declared that he would get revenge for him, so how can I not interfere?”
“It’s useless worrying. I’m a lot stronger than you think.”
“Yeah, it’s okay. You’re right. You’re from the infamous ranger of Barcato, can an adventurer like me dare to compare? I just have to lead the way and work hard on grilling meat.”
The woman nervously rummaged through the meat.
The man glanced at the scene and said,
“···It was you who went out of your way to grill that meat.”
“Ah, so you’re going to be like that, huh?”
“If you can make any excuse, go ahead.”
“Then I’m just going to eat this alone.”
She smiled inwardly as she spoke bluntly.
Although their personalities are completely opposite, the reason they could get along was because both had a soft heart.
Crung!
While the meat was cooking, the bushes shook, and the monsters appeared again.
It was a huge scorpion, a six-legged crocodile, and a deer with ferocious horns. A bizarre, unpredictable combination.
Unlike the woman who grabbed the staff that had been laid down next to her with a nervous face, the man drew a single dagger from his waist.
Push!
A dagger shot like a beam of light pierced the deer’s forehead.
Then, the man drew his long sword flew and rushed towards the scorpion. On the blade of the sword, a dark blue light was formed.
The scorpion raised its tail with a poison stinger; he avoided it, and swung his sword to cut it in half.
The man slashed the body of the writhing scorpion, then cut off the head in an instant, killing it.
Waa!
The crocodile jumped up from the side and could only bit the air.
It was a surprise attack, but the man had already landed on the ground and leapt into the air.
Then he slammed on a wooden pole and jumped straight down again, then fell to the crocodile and pierced its head.
“···Hey.”
The woman looked at the man who killed the three in an instant and was leisurely picking up his sword, dazzled by it for a moment.
The battle was over with no room for help. She had skills and enough experience to go to this place, but every time she saw him fight, she was still amazed.
“These monsters appear more often.”
The man glanced around at the dead monsters and said.
Deer, crocodiles and scorpions. A strange combination.
“Are the monsters in the demonic land all like this?”
“No, it can’t be. They’re just weird.”
The woman who said that also looked at the monsters’ bodies with strange eyes.
The demonic land was a place beyond common sense, and it was a daily routine to face various incomprehensible things.
But if it happened repeatedly, not just once or twice, she couldn’t help but be concerned.
They came across a bunch of monsters like this all the way here.
She went on without thinking deeply so far, but she also felt a sense of wonder and strangeness.
Kkiing!
When she lifted her head, there was a bird in the sky spinning around them, making an eerie cry.
She looked at it for a moment, then turned her attention back to the meat.
While fighting the monsters, the meat seemed already cooked.
