Episode 130

65. I Met a Fairy – 2

Whether it’s a boring task or not, hunting frogs is a commission from the Fairy Queen.

Since it was something that had to be approached seriously, Lee Han patted Hongryeon on the back.

“I’ll do something for you when you’re done with work.”

“Huh?! Really?!”

My dead motivation began to come back to life.

When Eric saw that and giggled, waves began to form on the calm lake.

-Croak, croak, croak, croak.

“Oh, it’s coming!”

“The frogs are coming!!”

The fairy knights behind them panicked at the sound they heard coming from the lake.

Eric smiled bitterly at the sight of them groaning in fear.

“Wouldn’t it be better to just send them back?”

“That would be better. I’m so out of it I can’t concentrate. You take them away.”

“Okay, Sur, Aisin. You guys, let’s go together.”

“Eh~. Can I catch a frog too?”

“I will help Lee Han-oppa with magic!”

The twins openly rejected Eric’s offer.

Eric sighed as if he had known this would happen and looked at Lee Han with a gloomy face.

“I’ll take care of the kids, so go ahead.”

“Yes, thank you.”

Eric went straight to the fairies.

As the fairies, who had been panicking and not knowing what to do, began to follow Eric towards the castle, frog heads began to appear above the water’s surface.

“It’s lightning!!”

As if he had been waiting, Seol-i Lee, who was next to Han, cast a spell.

Dozens of lightning strikes into the lake electrocuted the frogs that had gathered there, and moments later, dead frogs began to float to the surface of the lake.

-Croak! Croak! Croak!

He seems angry about being struck by lightning.

As the croaking of the frogs grew louder, something flew towards Sur from the lake.

-Crunch!

“Oh! Thank you!”

It was none other than the frog’s tongue that was targeting Sur.

Sur, who had tried to block the attack with magic, was grateful when Lee Han blocked it instead, and he kicked the tongue of a frog rolling on the ground with his foot before reaching out his hand.

“Lightning Bolt!!”

-Phase support support!!

A frog that was trying to attack itself was hit by an electric arrow and floated up on its stomach.

Starting with that, Aisin also used magic to attack the frogs.

-Croak! Croak! Croak! Croak!!

Although we were steadily catching frogs, the number of frogs appearing in the lake was gradually increasing.

Hongryeon, who was catching frogs with a spider web, frowned and shouted in annoyance.

“There are so many of them!! Explanation! Use another lightning strike!!”

“Okay, I got it!”

“wait for a sec.”

Lee Han, who had been watching the frogs gather, approached the lake.

The frogs that saw him coming moved their tongues to attack him, but Lee Han easily dodged them and arrived at the lake.

“Dominion of water.”

The skill attached to the sea dragon necklace obtained by saving the mermaid queen was activated.

At that moment, the movement of the lake began to change.

“Wow… … .”

Hongryeon, who was watching from behind, let out a sigh of admiration.

No, it’s not just her.

Surdo, Aisindo. And the explanation too.

Everyone could not help but admire it.

That was because the lake had begun to split apart.

-Croak! Croak! Croak!

The frogs, startled by the sudden movement of the lake, began to squirm, unable to come to their senses.

Those frogs were swept away by the moving water and thrown to the bottom of the lake.

When the frogs gathered seemed to have piled up to a suitable size, Lee Han lifted Gaia’s Sickle, which had grown larger.

“The wrath of the earth.”

-Wow, wow, wow!!

Until now, the wrath of the earth had been unusable because of the lake, but now that the frogs were on the lakebed, they could not escape the threat of the stone spear.

As hundreds of frogs, unable to even scream, died from being impaled on stone spears, Lee Han released his control over the water.

“I think I almost caught it.”

“We still haven’t caught the frog ruler.”

“Ruler? What is that?”

“It’s a king frog with a crown on its head. The fact that there are this many king frogs means that there is a ruler leading them.”

Of all the frogs I’ve caught so far, there’s never been a frog like that.

Lee Han, who thought that maybe he was being watched from behind, stepped towards the lake.

“frost.”

-Tch, tch, tch!!

Every time Lee Han took a step, the lake began to freeze.

While everyone was following him and looking around, Aisin pointed to a place and shouted.

“It’s over there!”

A giant frog wearing a coffin was seen running away, perhaps because all of its subordinate frogs were dead.

Hongryeon moved her hand without hesitation toward where Aisin was pointing.

-Chae-ae-aeng!!

“Huh?”

Her attack, which had the cutting power to cut through anything, was stopped in mid-air.

The energy surrounding the Frog Ruler’s body nullified her attacks.

“That guy doesn’t seem like an ordinary guy.”

“Are you saying that you swallowed a piece of chaos?”

“Hmm. I guess so.”

Hongryeon slightly closed her eyes and nodded after sensing the energy coming from the frog ruler.

In the meantime, Sur and Aisin used magic to attack, but they too were blocked by the energy of chaos.

-Croak! Croak! Croak!

It seems that he has gained confidence after fending off the continued attacks.

The fleeing frog ruler slowly turned around.

Hongryeon was upset at the sight of the man making fun of her.

“You’re picking on me because I ate a piece of that chaos!!”

-Cave!!

The frog ruler in the water jumped up.

Hongryeon gritted her teeth and jumped towards the frog ruler who was falling down with his legs spread out as if trying to crush the group with his huge body.

“frost.”

-Tch, tch, tch!!

Lee Han used Frost without mercy on the guy floating in the air.

As the Frog King ruler, whose body was frozen in an instant, was about to fall, Hongryeon fired a spider web, and the Frog King was cut in half by the web and fell into the lake.

-with a splash!!

“Wow!”

The lake was shaking because the giant had fallen.

The moment the waves of lake water were about to crash down on the iceberg they were standing on, Lee Han lightly raised his hand.

“frost.”

-Tch, tch, tch, tch!!

The lake water was frozen in the shape of waves.

Sur and Aisin, who had been looking at it in surprise, smiled brightly and approached Ihan.

“Have you caught them all now?”

“I think so.”

“Then let’s go back. Everyone worked hard.”

“You’re making something delicious for me because I worked hard?”

“Lee Han caught the most.”

“Hey~. But I was the one who struck last!”

Seol-i was speechless at Hong-ryeon’s confidence.

Hongryeon smiled broadly as she heard that explanation, and Leehan grabbed the hands of Sur and Aisin who were following behind.

When they returned to the castle after completing their frog extermination, they were greeted with an even grander welcome than before.

As we passed through the bustling streets, as if calling all the fairies in the castle, and arrived in front of the inner castle, the Fairy Queen was so happy that she almost shed tears.

“Ah! Hero! You are truly amazing! You have defeated so many enemies!”

“Praise the Lord! Praise him!”

“Thanks to you, warrior, we were able to escape the fear of the frogs. Aaah. If those frogs had entered the castle, how much damage would have been done?”

The queen hugged Lee Han tightly and put her face on his chest.

She held onto him tightly as if she wouldn’t let him go, and then slowly raised her head.

“How can I repay this favor? No. I can’t repay it. I can’t let you go like this. I can’t do it. I’ll start the festival right away. Please come.”

“You’re saying that so burdensomely. Lee Han. What are you going to do?”

“How long do you think the festival will be?”

“A year… …?”

“That crazy… … .”

I wouldn’t mind being held captive in the fairyland for a day or two, but I had no intention of being held captive in the fairyland for a year.

Hongryeon muttered in disbelief as if speaking for Lee Han, and he also smiled bitterly and spoke to the queen.

“I can’t stay here that long.”

“but…….”

“No.”

The queen became sullen.

But even so, what is impossible cannot be done.

“Then how about enjoying the party?”

“I would accept a one-day party.”

The fairies around him were in an uproar, saying, “We can only celebrate Thanksgiving for one day,” but Lee Han remained calm.

In the end, the fairies, unable to break his will, decided to throw a party for just one day.

“I will welcome you with open arms… … .”

The queen headed towards the castle with her shoulders hunched.

Following her, Hongryeon patted Leehan on the back.

“Don’t let your guard down. They’ll do whatever it takes to capture you.”

Although he says it’ll only be for a day, he’ll try to hold on to Lee Han by making all sorts of excuses.

Hongryeon clutched her forehead as if she had a headache, as if an old memory had come to mind.

“Hey. You know what it was like when you were with the witch, don’t you?

Seol-i did not answer Hong-ryeon’s question.

Seol-i was sitting on Lee-han’s shoulder with her mouth shut as if something was off.

Only after she swung her tail did the explanation raise its head.

“What did you say?”

“How long did you stay when the witch came?”

“Uh… … We stayed for about ten days. At that time, we didn’t have anything urgent to do, so we attended the festivals that the fairies kept holding. At first, it was a week-long festival, but before we knew it, it became ten days.”

“Look at that. I told you to come to your senses.”

Hongryeon, with a stern expression and a grim expression, said the same thing to Sur and Aisin.

Sur and Aisin, who were only thinking about enjoying the party, pretended not to listen to Hongryeon, which made her cry and roughly stroke their heads.

“Why did you do that earlier? Is there something on your mind?”

“Um… … There is one thing. I plan to ask the Queen about it when I meet her later.”

It seems like there is something after all.

Seol-hee looked straight at the Queen’s back, and Lee Han patted Seol-hee and exhaled lightly.

“Please stay here until the party is ready!”

The place the Queen herself guided us to was a spacious and splendid room.

After Lee Han and his party entered, Eric and the fairies who appeared to be his servants came in a while later.

“Where have you been?”

“After bringing the knights, I reassured the worried fairies.”

“Good. I don’t know if you heard me, but I’m planning on coming back after attending the party.”

While they talked, the fairies laid out a small table neatly with cookies, honey, and tea.

“It’s fairy honey!”

“Huh? What is that?”

“It’s honey that can only be collected from special flowers. I tried it before and it was delicious!”

The description said that he dipped a cookie into the golden honey that gave off a soft glow and that he trembled as if he was in ecstasy after eating it.

After seeing it, Lee Han-do tried putting honey in his mouth as the explanation said and was surprised.

“This is no joke… … Everyone, try it.”

The group also tried the cookies and honey and were amazed.

It was a delicious honey that satisfied everyone whose taste buds had been heightened by Lee Han’s cooking.

“Honey from the fire is delicious, but this is amazing. What is this refreshing feeling?”

“Because it contains the power of fairies.”

It was the queen who answered Lee Han’s muttering.

When she opened the door and came in with a bright smile, Lee Han offered her a seat.

As she expressed her gratitude and sat down, quietly eating a cookie dipped in honey, Seol-i, who was on Lee Han’s lap, opened her mouth.

“Queen. Don’t you have something to tell me?”

The queen stiffened slightly at the explanation.

And then he let out a small sigh and straightened his posture.

“Do you remember when I said that the reason I came to the Fairy Kingdom with the witch was because there was a problem with the barrier magic and I wanted to fix it?”

The explanation was light-hearted and Lee glanced at the Queen.

The Queen’s expression did not look very good.

“The Fairy Kingdom’s barrier magic is a magic that prevents monsters with the power of chaos from entering.”

“Then what about that frog ruler from earlier? He clearly possessed the energy of chaos.”

Everyone’s eyes were fixed on the queen.

She accepted the gaze demanding an answer, took a sip of tea, and spoke in a heavy tone.

“Someone created a rift in the magic that had been cast over Fairyland and sent the Frog Lord and his Frog Kings.”
