Chapter 938 – 938.Yggdrasil (7)
A cluster of stars that seemed to suddenly be scattered in the dark sky.
And that star cluster…
“Damage!”
“Aaaaah!”
Kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwak!!
It started pouring down on Umbra like rain.
Fortunately, there were no meteor showers flying toward midwinter like before.
In addition, most of the meteor showers did not fall from the ceiling, but were flying in a parabola from far away.
I quickly hugged midwinter and went into the back of the building that seemed the most sturdy.
I thought about going inside the building, but I thought the situation would get worse if I got hit by artillery fire while I was inside the building.
Despite hiding like that, the meteor shower showed no signs of stopping.
No, rather…
Kwakwakwak! Quack! Bang!!! Kwakwakwak!
The white light became more and more intense and began to devastate Umbra.
I asked Midwinter with an urgent cry.
“What is that!?”
“It’s war! “That’s what those bastards do all the time!”
The cry of midwinter.
I wasn’t yelling because I was angry.
Kwakwakwak! Bang! Kwakwakwak!!!!
This was because it was impossible to have a quiet conversation due to the sound of the meteor shower.
“This is war? “How long are you going to be like that?”
“I don’t know! “Most of them will bombard us like that for an hour or two and make fun of us!”
In terms of war, it is a very efficient method.
The effective way for an army occupying high ground to fight against an army staying in low ground is through throwing.
However, Midwinter described this method as a mockery.
At first, I thought they used that expression simply because they were enemies…
“Those bastards always fire like that, create a wasteland, and then advance. And they will make fun of us by bragging about who got the biggest building.”
“…”
It was a real joke, not a strategy.
Well, that oolong can also be called a strategy, but…
First of all, it wasn’t the situation to discuss that right now.
“Let’s go!”
“Where!?”
I shouted as I wrapped myself in the middle of winter.
“I have to join Hayeon!”
“Ah!!”
Midwinter finally came to his senses and shouted in a voice filled with worry.
“But it’s hard to move in these situations!”
As Midwinter said, in this situation, if you move incorrectly, you are likely to get hit by a meteor shower.
I don’t know if I can see a small human figure from far away and aim…
“Are you okay.”
“Ah!”
When I showed him the bow and arrows I was holding, he smiled with anticipation.
“If you take the lead, I will follow behind and shoot you down.”
Midwinter nodded his head with a bright smile that he had never shown me before.
“Okay!”
Min Ha-yeon and her group said they would wait at the restaurant.
Since we obviously said we would come back, we wouldn’t have moved carelessly.
I shouted as I hung an arrow on the bowstring.
“Let’s go!”
“Huh!”
Like midwinter, she ran towards the restaurant, and I followed behind her, checking the meteor showers coming from afar.
And I could be sure as I watched the meteor shower fly by.
‘I’m aiming for you!’
It wasn’t like shooting meteor showers blindly and causing confusion.
It was shooting accurately at us from a long distance away.
‘It wasn’t a coincidence that I tried to hit midwinter earlier.’
With that in mind, I took my stance and fired the first stage of the superconductor.
Paaaaang!
The yellow beam of light I shot pierced the pure white meteor shower that was flying towards us, and the meteor shower scattered white light fragments around as if it were shattering into pieces.
As we shot down the meteor again, Midwinter, who was running in front, shouted.
“Nice!”
Midwinter cheered as if he had completely forgotten what he was bickering with earlier.
That’s how much I could tell that the meteor shower was annoying to Midwinter.
I continued to shoot down meteor showers while listening to those cheers in the middle of winter.
So I shot it down and arrived at the restaurant…
“Suho!!”
I was able to meet Min Ha-yeon and Han Bom and Han Autumn.
I was worried that someone might get hurt while I was away…
“Nothing happened to Hayeon thanks to her older sister.”
Thanks to the Thanatos soldiers summoned by Min Ha-yeon who stopped the meteor shower, not a single person was injured.
The owner inside the restaurant even cheered and said to Min Ha-yeon.
“Thank you for stopping this building, which was barely repaired last time!”
“Haha… “Please say thank you to Gaeul rather than to me.”
The first time I noticed a meteor shower was in mid-autumn.
Thanks to Han Ga-eul detecting the meteor shower and informing Min Ha-yeon of the danger, she was able to respond in advance.
“Thank you everyone! “I will make sure to compensate you later!”
I feel relieved to see that everyone is safe…
“… For a moment!? Namgung Yuha!?”
No matter how much I looked, I couldn’t see Namgung Yuha.
Only then did Han Bom urgently explain it to me.
“I said I was going for a walk because I felt dizzy earlier!”
“!?”
For a moment, my head was spinning.
Namgung Yoo is no other person.
Although she was excellent at her skills, she had one fatal flaw.
‘Balcheonboro won’t be able to detect that bombardment!’
If a bombardment like a meteor shower comes your way, you will be helpless.
While I was worrying, the Thanatos soldiers guarding the building shot down the incoming meteor shower with weapons and magic.
Bang! Kwakwakwak! Chaeaeang! Boom!
Monsters with bodies the size of buildings.
There seemed to be no problem here at all even without me.
Seeing Thanatos’ soldiers, I came to my senses and re-equipped my bow.
“Everyone is waiting here! “I’m going to find Namgung Yuha!”
“We go together too!”
“No! “You guys wait here!”
Now, the only one who can stop this building is Min Ha-yeon.
Above all, there was one more reason why I left Min Ha-yeon behind.
“Those guys’ artillery fire has already moved in this direction. “If you leave, Hayeon, this area will become a disaster!”
Just as I said, the meteor shower that had been showering the entire city was now falling only toward the restaurant.
Thanks to that, Min Ha-yeon’s summons were busy blocking them…
“Listen to me! Hayeon, you block this place, Bom, if there are any injured, you treat them! And Gaeul prepare for any unexpected situation!”
“… Okay!”
At the same time as Min Ha-yeon answered, the other two people also nodded.
All three of them gave me earnest looks, not wanting to leave me alone.
But I had no choice but to turn away from that gaze.
“Do you know which way it went?”
Suin, a cat who happened to be in the restaurant, stretched out his finger and shouted.
“I saw it! “It went that way!”
“Thank you!”
I shouted and started running in the direction pointed by the cat beast.
Fortunately, the shelling did not hit me, perhaps because it was directed towards the restaurant.
However, the artillery fire did not follow, but an unexpected person followed me.
“Go together!”
It was midwinter.
I screamed without stopping running.
“Go back quickly! “I’ll go alone!”
“No!”
“No, what…”
This time, I tried to yell and scold her, but in the middle of the winter, she started to persuade me by telling me why she was following me.
“The inside of the city has been devastated, so you might get lost when you come back! Best of all, I know all the shelters!”
“…”
In fact, there was no problem with returning or safety.
This was something that could be easily solved with the help of Armonia and Kang Han-na.
Plus I can see the temperament window.
He had the ability to quickly find Namgung Yuha once he reached a certain appropriate distance.
However, there were some fascinating words among the words of Midwinter.
“And having a guide can be of some help when you’re looking for it!”
However, as she said, she felt like she needed a guide to find Namgung Yuha faster.
I still don’t know much about the structure of the city.
In addition, the temperament window can be seen only when the distance has narrowed to a certain extent.
If her paths diverge and something happens to her before she finds Namgung Yuha…
“Good! “Tell me where you might have gone!”
“First of all, there’s a park over there! “If you’re taking a walk, there’s a good chance you’ve gone that way!”
I started running under the guidance of midwinter.
But as soon as we ran like that, a white meteor shower started flying towards us again.
Some of the meteor showers that had been heading towards the restaurant until now were flying towards us.
“Some guy’s sniping…”
“They have great eyes! Be careful!”
“Don’t worry!”
I shouted and lightly fired a first-stage superconductor shot towards the meteor shower.
When I lowered my bow after firing only one shot, Midwinter looked embarrassed and shouted.
“There are three flying shots!”
“Know.”
Three meteor showers flying at different directions.
It is impossible to stop those three meteor showers by shooting just one arrow.
According to common sense…
Paaaaang! Kwaaaaang!
After the superconductor arrow I shot pierced the meteor shower that was flying at the forefront…
“W-what!”
Paaang! Bang! Shooooo! Quack!
It twisted its direction in a curved shape and pierced through the remaining two meteor showers, shattering them into pieces.
Paaaaa…
And the superconductor arrow leisurely leaves alone…
I looked at the arrow and shrugged my shoulders.
“For your information, I can’t retrieve it because it’s difficult. “Please don’t expect it to be a circus like that.”
“And…”
Midwinter looked at me and the arrow flying far away, as if he was truly amazed.
After a few seconds of admiration, Midwinter came to her senses and looked embarrassed.
“Greatness… Wow, that’s amazing. Let’s go!”
Midwinter said so and took the lead again.
And on the way he spoke to me as if he were talking to himself.
“A moment ago… “Thank you.”
By just now, I did not mean what happened a little while ago, but what happened that saved me.
“There is no need to be thankful. “If you were in a similar situation as me, you would have saved me.”
“Yeah, right! Of course I…”
It was a bit unreliable to trail off, but it didn’t really matter.
“Ruler! “Come on, let’s go quickly!”
Midwinter turned around and started running, as if turning his horse around.
I followed him and prayed earnestly.
‘Please don’t do anything…’
While praying like that, I raised my voice and shouted.
“Namgoong Yuha!!!”
And when Midwinter heard my voice, she came to her senses and mixed her voice with me to find Namgung Yuha.
“Namgoong Yuha!! Please answer if you have any!!!”
He began to help me with such sincerity that I wondered if it was the middle of winter, which had been confronting me and glaring at me earlier.
But despite our efforts, the sound did not spread far.
Quaaaaang! Boom!! Kwakwakwak!
“Holy shit!!!”
“What kind of lightning struck me while I was sleeping!!”
“Those bastards only attack during the day for a day or two!”
Not only us, but also the summoners and night residents who were running away around us were all confused and causing a commotion, so the voices of Midwinter and I could not go more than ten meters away.
But still, I desperately shouted Namgung Yuha’s name.
And sometimes we shot down meteor showers that flew towards us.
However, while shooting it down, I discovered something strange.
‘Does it seem like you’re shooting too openly in my direction?’
Earlier, it felt more like hitting people, but at some point it felt like they were focusing their bombardment only on me, without firing at any other summoners or residents.
[Maybe they decided that since it was so easy to block, it would actually pose a threat?]
After listening to Kang Han Na, it made sense.
However, as the amount of shots increased, problems slowly began to appear.
‘If I keep going, I’ll run out of mana…’
Superconductor Arrow was basically a skill that used a lot of mana.
If you use it to suppress your opponent, it won’t be a big problem, but if the consumption continues without being able to defeat the enemy, it will be difficult to last an hour.
‘Appear quickly! Please… !’
It was a moment when I desperately prayed for Namgung Yuha to appear.
=====
Namgung Yuha
[Martial Arts], [Eye Damage and Blindness], [Calmness], [Longing], [Loneliness]…
=====
“Found!!”
I shouted in joy, and Midwinter, who was startled by my shout, looked around and asked me.
“Where? “Where are you?”
“Excuse me! “It’s behind that building!”
It was a 7-story bell tower approximately 500 meters away.
It was the moment when I was about to run at full speed with the joy of finding Namgung Yuha.
Babababababaat!
“Oh, Mr.!!”
A meteor shower started raining down on me again.
I stopped running for a moment, raised my bow, and fired a barrage of superconductor arrows.
Paang! Paaang! Paaaaang!
This was because it seemed difficult to hit them all with one foot.
He fired four superconductor arrows and was able to shoot down the falling meteor shower with four shots.
It was the moment when the storm was over again and he was about to run to Namgung Yuha.
Kwaaaaang!
The place I’m trying to get to.
So, the bell tower next to the place where Namgung Yuha’s temper window exists…
“Woah, it’s falling apart!!”
It was hit by a meteor shower and was collapsing toward Namgung Yuha’s temperament window.
