044. To the Dimrin Forest (2)

-Thud, thud!

“Damn it!”

“How many of them are there?”

Devron’s eyes were filled with despair. The knights and soldiers numbered at most 100. However, the number of Nubera surrounding them seemed to far exceed that number. Unless they were precise swordsmen, even spears would not work, so he could not rely on the soldiers, and the only ones who could properly fight them were his knights, about 30 people. Devron was running around frantically, cutting down Nubera, but the number of victims was increasing at a rate that was more than double that.

“Ah, ahh! My, my eyes!”

The knight who was hit head-on by the poison that Nubera had shot out of its mouth tried to shake it off by covering both of his faces, but it had already melted to the point where his brain was visible. Nubera also had intelligence, and they began to gather around Devron, who had single-handedly killed many Nubera.

“Ugh, you guys…. Okay! All of you, come at me!”

At the same time that Devron gave a scream that was almost like a scream, three Nuberas rushed towards him. At that moment, a dark shadow appeared in the sky and something huge crushed the Nuberas.

-Kuuuung!

With a loud roar, the knights and the Nuberas stopped moving. Silence followed. Now was the chance to cut them down, but Devron could not move.

“Shaha…….”

It was the appearance of Nillakuvera, a gigantic being that moved slowly while making a sound like the evil growl of a snake. Its body alone was over 5m thick, and if you included its long legs, it looked like it was at least 15m long. It was the overwhelming presence of a named being that had lived for over 100 years.

Nillakuvera slowly approached Devron, pushing away the Nubera that was crushed by his legs. Eight eyes the size of a child’s head came close enough to illuminate Devron’s face, but he was unable to take any action.

Extreme fear. At this moment, he deeply regretted his choice to charge into the Dimrin Forest.

Death, the meaning of which I had been half-believing before coming here, came closer and the events that had happened up until then flashed before my eyes. Why had I come here without knowing how precious my life was? When I die, everything is fleeting… … .

But then, at some point, I felt my fingers move as my body accepted death. Devron’s eyes shone sharply. Devron used all his strength to thrust his sword into Nillakuvera’s eyes.

-Phew!

“Kyaaaaah!”

“Retreat!”

“Huh, retreat!”

I can’t lead everyone to destruction because of my foolish choice. Devron left the writhing pain of Nillakuvera and picked up a sword from a nearby corpse and shouted. If I can just stop this guy, my men will be able to escape. Devron’s face, holding his sword, was filled with a sense of desperation.

“Wow… that’s amazing!”

Irie opened her mouth wide in admiration.

In this eerie forest, there was such a peaceful-looking lake… … . In addition, unlike the forest, there were green grass and flowers blooming around the lake. And most amazing of all, in the center of the lake, there was a 10m diameter exposed ground, and a small log cabin was built there. It was like a small uninhabited island.

“I discovered this place a few months ago. It seems like there hasn’t been any trace of people here for a long time, so I’ve been staying here.”

“It’s unusual. It’s as if someone made it…….”

Certainly, this place is an unusual shape. Given the nature of the lake, it is impossible for an isolated island to be created in the middle of it without the intervention of artificial force. However, in a world where there is magic, there is nothing that is not there, so Icarone walked toward the lake to go to the log cabin.

At that moment, Yiel grabbed his arm and stopped him.

“Wait a minute. It may look calm, but there’s a vicious monster called a Vinuk living inside. It may be small, but its teeth are so sharp that it could easily cut off an arm.”

‘You say that so casually. What on earth happened to this woman… ?’

“Then how do I get across?”

The lake was quite wide, so even with a fly, it was too far to cross in one leap. It looked to be at least 30 meters. Instead of answering, Yiel took out a small vial from her bosom.

“It’s a powder made by crushing the white tree in the back. Maybe it’s because of the smell, but when you sprinkle it on people, they don’t come near.”

As she said that, Yiel sprinkled the white powder in the vial on everyone. How did she find out about that? Strangely, when she saw this behavior, Icarone imagined what she had experienced when she came to this world and felt her heart become heavy. Perhaps it was because she remembered her innocent appearance at the convenience store.

“Sniff sniff, ugh… That monster is a bit repulsive.”

Ierie, who had been smelling the powder that Iel had sprinkled, frowned and spoke. It was a smell that reminded her of the smell of a bank robbery. Regardless, Ierie picked up Reina and threw herself into the lake. Icarone tried to jump in as well, but Ierie grabbed his collar and spoke.

“Hey, why aren’t you taking me here?”

“Hmm… It seems like the pursuit party has fallen, and maybe you can’t swim?”

“Well… there’s no water around Byren… Whew.”

“Meow!”

Ierie, who was talking bashfully while twisting her fingers, was quickly picked up by Icarone and walked towards the lake. As soon as the water touched her body, Kuo, who was in her arms, got startled and quickly climbed up onto Icarone’s head.

Inside the lake, there were monsters called Binuks that looked like eels and were probably about 1.5 meters long, circling around with their sharp teeth snapping, but they didn’t attack. There seemed to be dozens of them, and if you went in, you’d be torn apart in the blink of an eye.

‘This is totally a fortress.’

Arriving at that remote island, Icarone unconsciously looked ahead and couldn’t help but feel embarrassed for a moment. This was because Iel’s clothes were clinging to her, soaking wet. Although it was only for a moment, Icarone, who had exceptional visual acuity, looked at her sleek curves and suddenly had a question in his mind.

‘Is there no… underwear in this world?’

Of course, there is underwear, but it is only a thin layer of clothing. So, the body is exposed to the point of being naked. Icarone lowered her head, unable to hide her embarrassment.

‘Huh.’

But there was nothing to say about Ieri, who was in his arms. The pure white silk robe clung to her body so tightly that even her flesh color was visible here and there. Icarone quickly put her down, almost as if he was throwing her away.

“Whoa!”

Ierie looked at Icarone with a bewildered expression, but he quickly turned around and walked away.

“Ah, ahem. I have something to do for a moment…….”

As he spoke, Icarone walked behind the log cabin with Kuo.

Yiel and Irie looked at him with expressions of doubt at his unfamiliar appearance. Then they naturally looked each other up and down, and almost simultaneously wrapped their hands around their own bodies.

“Wow!”

“This, this…….”

* * *

Icarone sat with her back against the log cabin in the backyard, petting Kuo.

As I listened to the gurgling sound and looked at the calm lake, my mind naturally became peaceful. Peace? It was a word that did not suit me. Even now, when I feel this way, I feel uncomfortable and awkward, like wearing clothes that do not fit.

But… … But wouldn’t it be okay to put everything down and rest comfortably for once? The physical exhaustion keeps suggesting compromises to the mind. And the warmth he feels from Kuo eventually causes Ikarone to fall into a trance.

At the same time, Iel and Ierie were still standing still in that position. Then, feeling the coldness of the blowing breeze, Iel moved first.

“Let’s go in and change Reina’s clothes first.”

“Ah, ah, yes yes.”

The two women took out the clothes from the subspace and slowly changed Reina’s clothes. The clothes were so tight on her body that it took quite a while to take them off, but no conversation took place.

‘Raina is secretly glamorous too.’

Even though she thought she was average, seeing Reina with her baby-like appearance and surprising body, Yiel felt a little jealous. It was when she had almost finished changing her clothes. Even Yiel, who was not a man of few words, quietly helped her with an unfamiliar expression, and as the awkward atmosphere continued to linger, Yiel spoke first.

“How did you meet Mr. Icarone?”

“Ah, I met Ikarone-sama while I was hunting monsters. He was so skilled that I hired him.”

“okay…….”

‘They didn’t seem like just employers and employees… … .’

There was silence again. Irie tried to say something more, but when Iel’s answer ended in a short answer, she remained silent with an ambiguous expression. Iel laid Reina down on the bed and continued speaking.

“Now let’s change. I have a spare set of clothes. Just a moment.”

“Ah, yes yes, if I had known this would happen, I would have put some clothes in the subspace and carried them around~.”

The clothes she usually wears are all expensive clothes that need to be taken care of, not to mention wrinkled, and her subordinates take care of them all, so she never carried her clothes in the subspace. In contrast, since she never knew when or where she would move, she carried most of her daily necessities in the subspace.

Without saying anything, Yiel took out the leather clothes and handed them to Yiel. However, as she put them on, she whined and complained of discomfort as if something was stuffy. Then, she finally spoke carefully to Yiel.

“Excuse me, but do you have anything a little bigger?”

At her words, it was Iel who turned around with sharp eyes for a moment. Then, looking at Ierie who was feeling suffocated by the tightness in her chest area, she felt an inexplicable sense of defeat. Since she had only chosen clothes that were good for hunting monsters or being active, the clothes that fit Ierie’s body perfectly were suffocating for Ierie who was relatively large(?). Iel had no choice but to hand her a few loose clothes that she sometimes wore to sleep and went out first.

After a while, Ierie, who had changed her clothes, came out with a refreshed expression and said.

“But why doesn’t Icarone-sama come?”

Her words made Elle question herself, since it had already been well over an hour.

“Okay, let’s go.”

There was no need to think about where it was. In this narrow space, they had already decided where to go to avoid being noticed… … When they went to the backyard, they found Icarone sleeping while hugging Kuo tightly.

“You must be very tired.”

“That’s right… This is the first time I’ve seen you sleeping so defenselessly. Normally, if you just heard footsteps, you’d wake up right away, brandish your sword, and say, ‘What?’”

Iel awkwardly looked down at Ikarone, the corners of her lips slightly rising at Ierie’s sudden imitation of her voice. Thinking of him, who had barely recovered yet, and had come close to death while dealing with her in a fit of rage, she felt sorry for him.

I carefully covered her with a thick blanket, worried that she might wake up from her deep sleep. Irie was about to say something, but when she saw Icarone moving slightly, she covered her mouth in surprise and left the place.

* * *

That night, Iel and Irie came out and sat side by side. Irie looked out at the lakeside and opened her mouth.

“It’s so quiet. How long has it been since I’ve had time like this…….”

Iel looked at her secretly. When Icarone, who seemed like she would never be with anyone, appeared with her, she felt a sense of unnecessary jealousy and was on guard. And she was such a beautiful woman. However, it was still too early to judge, but she didn’t have the typical foxy behavior of a woman, and every expression seemed honest and pure.

Seeing that, my jealousy seemed to subside little by little.

“You said you came from Mudelli…?”
