Episode 282
“Do you know anything about Typhon?”
Lauren looks blank for a moment at my question.
Knowing full well the meaning of this expression, I added a few more words.
“I’m not teasing you or testing you. All I know about Typhon is that a monster called Typhon exists on this continent. Just tell me everything you know without any hesitation.”
Lauren’s expression gradually becomes more and more absurd.
“You really don’t know anything about Typhon? Well, do you know that the sun rises in the south in the morning?”
In fact, even this is unfamiliar knowledge to me.
The fact that the planet on the 39th floor rotates from north to south is common sense that no one tells me.
“I know that from experience. But is it really that bad of a question if I’m asking about Typhon?”
“Ha! You’re definitely the most unique character I’ve ever encountered. Even now, I don’t feel like I’m being pranked at all. But why are you asking about Typhon?”
“Because I plan to go kill Typhon.”
“Crazy guy.”
“As you may have felt, I am quite strong.”
“I know that much. I haven’t seen your true colors yet. But killing Typhon has nothing to do with how strong you are.”
“Why?”
“Just as mountains, rivers, and seas exist on this continent, Typhon has always existed on this continent. So it is not a consideration how strong you are.”
“I have a rough idea of how much it is.”
I also learned about the weight of this quest.
It’s definitely not a typical quest.
And my choice may be the only one in this tower.
We have taken on a truly absurd challenge.
“As for Typhon….”
Lauren started giving me a basic explanation of Typhon.
Lauren explained everything she knew from A to Z, as if she was teaching a child who knew nothing.
Although this is an unfamiliar worldview, Typhon’s strength can be felt just from Lauren’s formulas and expressions.
“And yet Typhon has never been involved in the human world?”
“Yes. Typhon has always existed quietly at the edge of the world, just as it has since the beginning.”
It feels like nature itself, something that humans cannot dare to challenge.
As Lauren’s explanation came to an end, a new message was delivered to us.
[Remove Typhon from this world.]
[Remaining time: 9 days]
[When the quest is cleared, the 39th floor automatically ends.]
“In eight days we will be standing at the edge of the world where Typhon exists. Lauren, please take care of us until we get there.”
“What? What on earth are you asking me for? Whoever you want!”
The guy begins to back away with a white face.
“There’s nothing to be afraid of. All you have to do is guide me.”
“Crazy guy!”
“There will be quite a bit of soybean water falling throughout the journey.”
“Did you forget? I am the third prince of the Fran family! One of the wealthiest families on the entire continent!”
“You feel it too. The Congo product I’m talking about is something that money can’t buy.”
“Ha! Shit!”
It’s an offer too big for him to refuse.
Lauren knew that too, so she just poured out the six-letter word.
* * *
[The strategy book has been sent.]
It was very timely.
The time given to us was a total of 9 days.
When flying with Theia’s wings, travel time is not that big of a deal, so it was necessary to make good use of the remaining time.
I was thinking about many things.
Should I train, should I search for places where Cyclops appear, or should I go out and kill Gigant like the Illumi guys?
However, the strategy book suggested directions that I had not considered.
[Go to Palene Island. Since you killed Gigas Lildi, many Gigas have been targeting you.]
Gigas is also a monster species that possesses mana hearts.
However, the reason I excluded Palene Island from my options was because Gigas are not beings that you can meet just because you want to.
Gigas are interesting beings with powers related to space distortion.
If those Gigas are waiting for me with their territory wide open, I have no reason to refuse.
“I’m going to the island of Palene. After feasting on the Gigas’ Manahat, I’m going to catch Typhon.”
“Ignorant bastard! I don’t know how you knew about the island of Palene when you don’t even know Typhon, but it’s not a place you can go if you want! The entire island is surrounded by a natural protective wall.”
Lauren clicks her tongue and makes an astonished expression.
“Yes, it was definitely a magical place. The sight of deep water gushing up along the entire coastline was spectacular.”
A place that can never be reached by ship.
So I spread Theia’s wings.
“let’s go.”
“Where are you going?”
“Where should I go? Palene Island.”
I spread my arms.
Shin Joo-ah naturally comes to my left and holds hands.

“What, do you mean the three of us should hold hands?”
It would be quicker to show it in person rather than explain it.
Hehehe!
He flew horizontally and grabbed one of Lauren’s hands.
He still doesn’t understand the situation.
“What are you doing!”
And then it flew up towards the sky.
* * *
“Wow!”
Palene Island, the paradise of Gigas.
As soon as she hit the ground, Lauren began marking her territory loudly.
“Calm down. We’re going to start attacking Gigas right now.”
“W-This is really Palene Island?”
“You saw it too. The huge upwelling stream surrounding the island.”
“…….”
“I guess you didn’t see it.”
Actually, Shin Joo-ah had her eyes closed the whole time during her first flight.
Lauren comes to her senses and looks around the island curiously.
This is a place where humans have rarely visited since ancient times, so it is natural that strange creatures live here.
“I can’t believe I’m coming to the island of Palene, which I’ve only seen in books!”
“This island of Palene must be a much more dangerous place than the sky, but I guess you’re excited?”
Gigas are magical beings that can open and close portals.
They sometimes open a portal to the island of Palene and invite humans for their own entertainment.
Of course, most people who pass through the portal are rushing towards tragedy.
Because Gigas is by no means a being that humans can deal with.
[Gigas Hale wants to meet you.]
[Gigas Rudne wants to meet you.]
[Gigas Ryashal wants to meet you.]
.
.
.
Love calls start pouring in.
Everyone is sharpening their swords to avenge Gigas Lil D.
I only have 9 days before taking on the Typhone challenge, so I have a lot of time.
If you just take a number and wait, I’m willing to meet all the Gigas here.
I shouted towards the island of Palene.
“I will meet everyone, so don’t worry and just wait. Instead, I have one very simple condition.”
I continued talking, pointing to Lauren next to me.
“This time, this guy is here too. Could you please attach one baby Gigas?”
The guy is startled by my words.
“Are you telling me to fight Gigas?”
“You can do it. Why? You were so excited to come to Palene Island, but suddenly you got scared?”
“Not really!”
An adult Gigas might be able to handle it, but even a baby Lauren can handle it.
Because he also has Gigant.
The Gigas responded immediately to my suggestion.
A baby Gigas invited Lauren to his territory.
“Then I call Gigas Hale….”
As soon as you make your choice, the surrounding background begins to change.
A truly jaw-dropping, mysterious power.
I killed this being and obtained Manahat.
* * *
Gigas Hale.
As expected, it is a monster with a bizarre appearance.
The body is that of a giant, but the legs are like two giant snakes reminiscent of dragons.
At the bottom, two tongues are sticking out with fierce eyes, and from above, a peerless beauty is looking at me.
I get goosebumps from this horrible hybrid.
“Foolish human! You came in here without fear!”
“Lil D said that too. And the result, as you know, was that he died by my hands.”
“I’m not like Lil D.”
Of course, I am also different from when I met Lil D.
At that time, I was only able to kill Lil D after mobilizing all my strength.
In the process, Pallas’s shield ran out of durability, and a huge amount of healing items had to be consumed.
But it wasn’t there then, but it is there now.
Jiiiing-
Berad is summoned in front of me.
“It’s made from the mana heart of your friend, Lil D.”
“How dare you be a human!!”
Gigas Hale’s anger boils, and the air in all directions vibrates due to its huge mana eruption.
Shin Joo-ah and I boarded Berad immediately.
And then immediately summoned the holy sword.
In Berad’s hands, a lightsaber that embodies the holy sword is created.
“I will never kill you comfortably! I will trap you in Gigas’ labyrinth and torment you for eons!”
Quaaaang!
As I swung the holy sword, Hale also summoned a huge staff to block me.
Even though Berad is there, it is true that it is not an easy fight.
While riding the Gigant, you can’t use Theia’s Wings or the Red Flame’s Fire Demon.
Since you can’t just apply the strategy you used during Lil D, you have to find a new strategy.
Wow!
Two huge snakes instantly expand their bodies to their full extent and thrust their heads towards Berad.
I wonder what the snake can do against this cavalry, but the thought that I must avoid it suddenly crosses my mind.
‘poison!’
It didn’t matter to me, who is impervious to poison, but I thought that the poison spewed out by Gigas might corrode Berad’s exterior.
In an instant, he extended his holy sword and pushed his body back.
The two snakes fiercely bite Berad’s lightsaber.
Chiiik!
A strong toxicity is felt due to the tremendous force of the teeth.
Definitely stronger than Lil D.
However, it would be difficult for the martial arts sword I wield to succumb to something like a snake.
Berard’s lightsaber tore open two jaws.
Wow!
Hale’s lower body glowed like crazy, and I took the opportunity to stab the holy sword once again.
The target this time was his abdomen.
The moment the tip of the sword touches Hale’s body, it becomes as hard as steel.
Of course, ultimately, other sword techniques can pierce any defense, but a problem arose at a critical moment.
[Berad’s abilities are temporarily reduced due to a debuff of favorability.]
[Debuff Index: 3.95]
Wow!
The sword that failed to pierce Hale’s abdomen ended up being thrown away.
The same goes for my body.
“It’s a shame! It could have been an effective attack!”
“I sense some resentment in your tone of voice?”
“That’s not true. You have no sense of entitlement!”
“No matter how you look at it, I think there was a little bit of resentment. Anyway, it’s not my fault that the favorability rating is low, right?”
“I didn’t say anything.”
Shin Joo-ah avoids my gaze for a moment.
In any case, there is no guarantee that the monarch of the 39th floor, the Lord of Wind, will not play a trick during the battle with Typhon.
A problem that must be prepared for by assuming it is a constant rather than a variable.
Fortunately, there are enough sparring partners waiting on the island of Palene to experiment.
“Your attacks no longer work!”
Hale looked at me with an arrogant expression.
The illusion is also severe.
If it weren’t for the debuff that was applied just now, it would have caused quite a shock.
In any case, Hale’s ending is decided.
A very good ingredient for Berad’s predation.
Once you have finished predating once or twice, the cleanup of Palene Island will speed up considerably.
An enormous gigant that has never existed before will be born.
