Episode 19. Tomb of King Hero (3)
The moment Royce’s strike touched the King of Heroes’ heart, a huge sword of light split the world.
At the same time, a tremendous shock struck the royal tomb, causing countless gold to fly in all directions and the royal tomb to tremble violently.
Rumble-.
‘ah… … .’
Lois’s closed eyes fluttered from the vibrations beneath her feet.
Royce confirmed that the attack she gave her all was successful.
At the same time, he expected his own death.
This is because the King of Heroes’ sword continued to fall even when his chest was pierced.
The body that had used up all of its energy was as heavy as wet cotton, and Royce was helpless in the face of the pressure that came from the gap in her realm.
That was the last scene Lois remembered.
however… … .
“uh… … ?”
Lois slowly opened her eyes.
That he is still alive and breathing.
Also, I was surprised to find that not a single hair was hurt.
‘… ‘What happened?’
Lois closed her eyes.
Lois, entranced, turned her gaze to the left.
“omg!”
The empty wind swallowed me up.
“W-what is this?!”
The distance was only 30cm.
A huge mark of unknown depth engraved right next to it, just 30cm away.
The depth was deep, but even the length of the sword strike was immeasurable.
Additionally, the sword strike extended not only to the floor but also to the exterior walls and ceiling.
Due to the sword strike that blew up the ceiling, a clear sky was visible hundreds of meters underground where Royce was.
Floor, walls, ceiling.
In other words, a single blow split the royal tomb in half.
‘this… ‘The state of zero?’
Is this really something that humans can do?
this… How is it different from splitting a mountain?
While Lois lamented over the traces left behind by the King of Heroes, the vibrations in the royal tomb became more intense.
Kurrrrr-.
Lois looked away with a pale complexion.
After coming to his senses, he took a closer look at the King of Heroes.
And only then did he know why he was alive.
[young… dragon… protect… … .]
The King of Heroes’ left hand was holding the sword in his right hand.
It’s like the left hand is blocking the right hand.
Wow-.
Finally, his left hand crushed his right hand, and the rusty sword he was holding fell to the floor.
The moment Lois looked at the King of Heroes in surprise, their eyes met.
Rumbling-.
As the vibrations became more and more intense, the walls of King Hero’s Tomb began to crack.
The collapse was accelerating.
It feels like it will collapse at any moment.
Inside, the King of Heroes opened his mouth.
[go… So.]
“why… … ?”
As soon as Lois asked, the King of Heroes’ body turned into powder starting from his legs.
The King of Heroes quickly disperses.
His last message rang softly in Lois’s ears.
[…] cast … article … thing … la.]
“what… Called?”
However, due to the damaged vocal cords and the noise coming from all directions, Lois could not hear it clearly.
With that, the hero king’s form completely disappeared.
Coogggggg-.
Amid the explosions echoing from all directions, Lois could only stare blankly at the flying powder.
It was then.
“Royce, Lois, we have to get out!”
“Ugh! “Roy!”
“crying! “We die!”
The twins and Finn woke up Lois, who was dazed.
‘This is not the time to be like this!’
Lois suddenly came to her senses.
He moved urgently and shouted.
“Everyone follow me!”

Lois took the lead and appeared as a dragon.
If I went back the way I came in, I would have been buried like a royal tomb.
However, the King of Heroes kindly created an evacuation route and disappeared.
“Follow closely!”
Royce’s body flapped its wings and soared upward toward the ceiling split by the King of Heroes.
The twins and Finn followed closely behind.
Soon after Royce and the others left the royal tomb, the royal tomb completely collapsed.
Kugung-.
As a result, the great king of ancient times and his brave warriors fell into a true eternal sleep from which they would never wake up again.
* * *
Pusuk-.
Three shadows rising above the piled snow.
They flew for a long time away from the burial area.
And only after entering the safe zone did it land on the floor.
“Huh-huh.”
Lois, who had returned to her human form, was breathing heavily.
‘what… ‘What happened?’
Lois’ face was filled with confusion.
‘If the King of Heroes’ left hand had not blocked it, he would definitely have died.’
Although he was excellent, the existence of a zero-level warrior was a disaster itself for Royce and his group, who were still young.
Royce thought over and over again about why the King of Heroes attacked at the end.
‘ha… I don’t know.’
But no matter how much I thought about it, there was no answer.
‘Now that I think about it, what do you think the King of Heroes said at the end?’
It was as if he saw the disappearing King of Heroes’ mouth moving towards him.
However, I did not hear it clearly because I was hurriedly running away from the collapsing royal tomb.
I wondered what he had said, but the King of Heroes had already disappeared without a trace.
There was no one left to ask what was said.
what… I didn’t even have the courage to ask again… … .
After organizing her thoughts like that, Lois sighed.
‘No matter what happens, I just wanted to live. and… I got what I wanted.’
Although much of the treasure had to be left behind when the royal tomb collapsed, the most valuable items were still available.
‘I’ll have to take the time to look through it.’
Thinking about the King of Heroes’ martial arts that he had hidden in his subspace, his uneasy feeling seemed to get better.
‘Let’s take a break… … .’
With that thought in mind, Lois lay down, using the snow as a blanket.
But even for a moment.
He had no choice but to raise himself up again.
“Huh… … .”
“Huh… … .”
Because I heard a sniffling sound next to me.
When I lifted my upper body, I saw the twins crouching and shaking their shoulders.
‘Eh… ‘You must have been very surprised.’
What happened a little while ago could not have been quite shocking to immature children.
Lois sighed and took out the elixir from subspace and handed it to the twins.
“Now, stop crying and eat this.”
“Sniff-. yes… … .”
“Sigh-. me… Give it a different flavor than that… … .”
“… “It’s okay.”
The children accepted the elixir handed to them by Lois, even with tears in their eyes.
While the guys were calming their surprised stomachs by sucking on snacks, Lois also shoved her share of the elixir into her mouth.
It was necessary to replenish mana for the Dragon Heart, which was creaking due to overexertion.
‘This is the first time in my life that I’ve pushed myself this hard.’
It was truly an amazing day in many ways.
As my mana filled up a little, I suddenly felt tired.
‘Now let’s really rest… … .’
Lois closed her eyes again to rest.
Not long after, Lois fell into a deep sleep.
The twins slowly approached him and laid down next to him, and they soon fell into a sweet sleep.
Children huddled together on the white snow field and falling asleep.
‘Rest well.’
Finn took charge of guarding the area for those who suffered.
* * *
Royce and his group rested in the snow like that.
It was not until the next morning that they woke up.
“Let’s go now.”
Lois, who felt that her mana had filled up to a certain extent, barely managed to stand up.
Even though I wasn’t completely tired yet, I couldn’t just sit in the snow forever.
“let’s go?”
“let’s go?”
At this, the twins buried in the snow stuck out their convex heads.
“huh. “I have to go now.”
“Where?”
“for now… “Let’s go down the mountain.”
“huh!”
As the captain moved, the crew followed him.
Twins jumping up and down in the snow.
Soon, Royce and the others started walking towards the bottom of the mountain again.
A few hours later.
‘It seems like we’ve come down quite a bit, but is there still a long way to go?’
After leaving the royal tomb, I walked non-stop, but all I could see was still snow.
Fortunately, dragons do not suffer from cold or heat, and eating is something that is simply done to gain attribute power, so it is a shame.
If Lois and the others were really ordinary children, they would have died before they even reached the bottom of the mountain.
Lois looked back at the path she had taken.
Three pairs of footprints stamped on the snow.
And beyond that, the ridge where the tomb of the King of Heroes is presumed to be.
Looking at this, Lois made a promise.
‘I’ll have to be more careful from now on.’
Is it because he was already seriously burned once in the Hero King’s Tomb incident?
Lois’s caution became more severe.
‘Anyway, the twins… You must be surprised, but are you okay?’
Although he was himself, this incident must have been scary for the twins as well.
Since they were still young children, I was worried about whether they would be okay.
However, the twins were in much better condition than expected, to the point where Lois’ worries were for naught.
He was still talkative and still full of energy.
It was as if he had been in a big crisis at some point.
“okay… “I was worried for no reason.”
Lois stuck her tongue out as she watched the twins running energetically through the snow.
The twins, who had been rolling around in all directions, gathered in front of Lois.
They waved their arms and circled around Lois.
“Roy look at this! “It’s snow, it’s snow!”
“… “Are you still amazed by the eyes you’ve tired of seeing until now?”
“But is this your first time seeing it?”
“okay… “Please pay close attention.”
Roy, who saw Carney’s bright eyes, lost interest.
This is because I felt like I would get stress-related gastritis if I reacted to each and every one of them.
If this whole incident hadn’t happened because he activated space movement.
If I hadn’t felt a pang of conscience as a result of that, I don’t know if I would have responded.
“Kyahaha!”
“ha ha ha!”
Even though Lois did not respond, the twins ran around in the snow like puppies seeing snow for the first time.
Children playing in the pure white snow field.
They ran tirelessly through snow that was up to their knees.
It truly had the stamina of a dragon.
Lois’s impressions after seeing this were simple.
“It’s peaceful.”
It was peaceful, but very peaceful.
‘Not a single monster appears.’
The winter continent right next to the Demon Sea had more monsters than other continents.
Because of the bleak season, the hungry monsters were vicious, and it was a common occurrence for hungry monsters to harm travelers.
However, until now, Royce and the others had never even encountered the common snow goblins.
‘Well, the three dragons are radiating energy, so I don’t know if I should approach them.’
Although they are young, Lois and the twins are born with the energy of a dragon.
Although it can be hidden, it does not hold back and releases its energy generously for a pleasant trip.
Even after feeling this, there were no large monsters that approached.
‘I wouldn’t know if it was a monster stained with demonic energy.’
If it were a monster that had lost its senses due to being consumed by demonic energy, it might have attacked Royce and the others, but monsters were not something that appeared very often.
“Feel so good.”
Lois was very pleased with the continued peace.
He smiled happily and caught up with the twins who had gone ahead.
It didn’t take long to chase after them.
This is because the twins stopped a little ahead.
“Roy, look at that! “It’s acting!”
“oh?”
Khan stretched out his finger and pointed beyond the foot of the mountain.
Lois was also instantly recognizable.
There was more than one piece of smoke coming from beyond the mountain.
‘It’s acting… … .’
Smoke rising meant there was fire there.
Monsters don’t make fire.
In other words, it is a human being or a being with intelligence equivalent to that.
Moreover, judging from the large number of smoke marks, it was highly likely that it was a village.
Lois also got a little excited about the first village she discovered after the shipwreck.
“let’s go!”
“Yes, Captain!”
As Lois took off quickly, the twins followed behind her.
30 minutes later.
Lois was excited about entering the village.
“what’s this… … ?”
However, the sight that came into view was enough to make those feelings disappear in an instant.
