Episode 126
EPISODE.63
Actually, there was no need to ask.
Immaculate and clear fighting spirit without even a single ounce of life mixed in.
From that alone, it was clear why they came here.
Sniff-.
just as expected.
One of the buffalo beastmen that appeared snorted. She then said, gently scratching her horn with a quite embarrassed expression.
“I’m sorry about this. Hmm. I didn’t mean to disturb your sleep… … .”
“… … ?”
“I tried to wait until the sun rose, but my senses were too sensitive there.”
Contrary to their words, their eyes were filled with speculation that they wanted to get together for once.
Russell laughed and pointed out the figure.
“If you’re going to say that, shouldn’t you first erase the speculation from around your eyes?”
Respect for the strong and favor the strong.
This must be the instinct of the beastmen.
Well, even the relatively docile beast people, the ape-man race, were like that, but is it any different on the inside?
If it had been worse, it would have been worse, not less.
At the same time as Russell pointed out, they let out a sheepish laugh.
“It’s because this is our instinct, so it’s not that easy to suppress it. “I’m sorry.”
He then responded slyly.
“But seeing as how sensitive your senses are, I guess that means we didn’t come to the wrong place.”
Should we consider this as words that lift oneself up?
Russell chuckled at their attitude.
It was clear that this would happen again as we got deeper into the island. Whether you meet the beast people or the village of the beast people.
Every time, you will have to clash with the beastmen who feel favored by the humans who come from outside.
‘It’s likely that the story will make sense only after that.’
It wasn’t a bad idea to consider this incident as part of the rehearsal.
Russell nodded.
“All right. “Why don’t we get started right away without waiting any longer?”
“Right now? really? Are you okay? “Mmmmmmm.”
Despite his words, his mouth opened wide to the left and right in joy.
Then, the large, muscular body begins to wriggle and form a dragon.
The thigh, which was the lower body of the water buffalo, was already swollen as if it were about to explode.
I felt it before, but they are a race that is not good at hiding their emotions when it comes to things like this.
‘Maybe only buffalo beastmen are like that.’
Thinking like that, Russell curled his fist. As an answer to the boiling speculation, I released some of my magical power.
Hwaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
.
.
Ugh-.
The magic power that came out of my heart with a firing sound ran wildly over the Mana Road.
Quick yet unstoppable movements, reminiscent of a wild horse.
What is surprising is that this movement of magical power itself is completely driven by Russell’s intention.
At first glance, it moves like a wild horse, but in reality, it is a horse that has already been reined.
Pababat-!
The magical energy rushing towards you immediately rushes towards your fingertips. The time it took to get here is literally a split second.
The moment when the mana gathered at your fingertips becomes disintegrated and distorted in one second or less.
Magical power became a physical law and became involved in the laws of the world.
“Shock Wave-!”
A strong shock wave struck the world, using the air as a medium.
Thump-!!!
“Ugh!”
With a dull impact, a large buffalo beast flies backwards and falls down.
Kwajeok, Ujikkeun!
Several trees that were swept there were completely shattered and crushed under the large body of the buffalo beast.
“Keuheook!”
It was the buffalo beastman who first spoke with Russell and who later introduced himself as Darkan.
At that force, the buffalo beastmen sitting around clenched their fists.
Everyone let out an exclamation.
“Oooooh-!”
“Indeed, you are strong. “Human wizard!”
There were abrasions and battle scars everywhere, including on the eyelids, showing that everyone had already been dealt a harsh blow by Russell.
There is only one remaining prisoner, Darkan.
“Off-.”
Meanwhile, Darkan groaned and struggled to get up.
Among the buffalo beasts that appeared, he was so talented that he was called the leader.
Of course, it was nothing compared to Russell.

Sigh-.
A baptism of cold water suddenly fell on my head.
Darkan, whose back was weakened, collapsed on the spot.
“Apoor, gurgling-!”
Then, a lightning bolt the size of a finger fell on Darkan’s head.
Pajijijit-.
“Mmmmmmmmmmm!”
The surge of electricity spread through the moisture that soaked Darkhan’s entire body, and immediately afterwards he let out a scream.
Then, thick soot began to rise from the long hair that had grown all over his body.
Although he was briefly knocked out by the shock, the only visible wounds were soot and abrasions.
‘If it were an ordinary person, it would have been an attack that wouldn’t have been surprising even if the bones had been broken and there were burns.’
Russell clicked his tongue as he caught a glimpse of the beastmen who were not only strong, but even strong.
‘Despite not being able to use Aura, his physical ability is comparable to that of a second-class knight of the Autumn Achievement level, especially a higher rank.’
It was literally a blessed body.
There seemed to be no other way to express their bodies other than those words.
‘If I could handle a body like that and even Aurors… … .’
Aura was not necessarily revealed only through practice.
Although it was rare, aurors often appeared through constant training and actual combat, even without practice.
It was for this reason that some of the mercenaries who had not even learned any training techniques became Exped-level Auror users who used sword energy.
‘Among beastmen, there must be someone who manifested auras in the same way.’
Otherwise, there was no way that Beast King Muyaho’s abilities could be treated as anything more than that of a normal superhuman.
“Grunt.”
At that time, Darkan, who came to his senses with a groan, stood up.
“Looking at my dizzy head, I guess I lost. “Hmm.”
He then spoke with admiration towards Russell.
“her. It’s amazing that your human friend looks young. “After such an attack, it was immediately followed by a thunderbolt of water.”
If you had just fired a bolt spell, you could have avoided it, but dropping a thunderbolt of water destroyed its center.
“It was a surprise move.”
He gave a thumbs up and called Russell again.
“But young human-.”
“This is Russell Raymond.”
It was a name that was only quite famous on the continent, but this place was the Kuril Islands.
“hmm. okay. “Russell.”
He nodded moderately, shrugged his shoulders, and continued.
“So what happens inside the island? As far as I know, most humans only engage in exchange activities on the outside of the island… … .”
A conversation before and after a battle.
Although the order was quite different, Darkan’s tone as he asked the question was calm.
Perhaps the current order is no different from everyday life here.
Understanding that fact, Russell opened his mouth.
He explained why he visited this place.
“actually-.”
After a short explanation that lasted several minutes, the buffalo beastmen, including Darkan, sat down in their seats and tilted their heads.
“hmm.”
“Hmm.”
He shrugged his shoulders and muttered as if he wasn’t sure.
“I don’t know. “I’ve been traveling around the island for over fifty years, but this is the first time I’ve heard the story you just heard.”
His age appears to be in his mid to late forties at most, but he is in his fifties.
“Excuse me, but may I ask how old you are this year?”
“Seventy-eight years old.”
For a human, I am at an age where it wouldn’t be strange to have age spots all over my body.
But that level of strength and vitality.
‘Indeed a beastman.’
Russell let his thoughts go as he admired them again.
It was quite surprising, but it wasn’t something we needed to worry about right now.
What else to focus on… … .
‘A place that even those who have been wandering around the island for so long cannot remember.’
… … Because it was different.
I knew it wouldn’t be easy, but I never thought it would be this much of a hassle.
‘but. Maybe things were too easy in the Underworld.’
Just as Russell was thinking that, a clue came from an unexpected place.
“If it’s a place that even the commander doesn’t know about, how about Shinji?”
“Shinji?”
Russell flinched at the mention of the land where God dwells.
This is because in the past, during the Age of Gods, there were people who revered dragons as gods.
The dwarves also treated the silver and fire dragons as quasi-gods, so they even built altars to worship them.
‘Now that I think about it, there was a record that the first Beast King, Felil, was also a half-dragon race.’
Russell recalled the contents of a book he had once read, and Darkan agreed.
“Sure, there might be a place like that in Shinji. Not even I have been there before, and since it’s near a volcano, there’s probably a lot of lava flowing… … .”
As of now, the most likely location was Shinji, so Russell asked without any delay.
“What must I do to enter Shinji?”
.
.
Grumbling-.
Russell extinguished the fire that had bloomed along the tip of his index finger and let out a long breath.
“Whoa.”
Today is already the seventeenth battle.
It wasn’t difficult, but it would be a lie if I said it wasn’t a hassle. With a long sigh, Russell looked away from her.
About a fortnight ago, I remembered the story I had with Darkan.
“Only those who are qualified to enter the new world are warriors among warriors and warriors who are recognized as outstanding within their race. “I don’t know if there is any other way.”
“Then who knows how?”
To Russell’s question, Darkan answered very simply, holding his index finger straight.
“The great warriors or elders might know.”
It felt like he was just asking questions, but if the answer continued like this, he had no choice but to ask again.
So what should I do to meet them?
The answer to that was this.
‘Continue to do what you did today.’
As this is an island that respects the strong and the strong, if their name becomes widely known, they will naturally come to visit.
Isn’t that why this has been going on for fifteen days already?
Encounter the beast people, be challenged, win… … .
While repeating the series of actions, Russell’s new model had already reached deep within the island.
In the meantime, perhaps rumors about him were spreading among the beastmen.
The number of beastmen applying for the challenge, saying they had heard rumors a few days ago, had also increased significantly compared to before.
The number of strong people defeated in the meantime was also not small.
Whether it was the Daejeon Incident or the Great Elder, there must have been at least one person who heard rumors about him.
‘At this point, it’s almost time to show up.’
just as expected.
“Are you the human stranger that was rumored?”
About five days later, a group of people came to visit Russell.
Unlike other prisoners, there were a group of people with red knots tied to their waists.
‘The symbol of the Great Warrior, which I heard from Darkhan.’
In an instant, they surrounded Russell and shouted at him.
“Follow me. “There is someone looking for you.”
“Who are you looking for?”
However, one thing.
What Russell didn’t expect was-.
“The Beast King wants to see you.”
-Even though it was caught, the catch was that it was too big a fish.
Beast King Muyaho.
He was looking for Russell.
