Island of the Giants.

Starting with plants and ending with fauna.

A party gathered on this island where everything was infinitely huge.

“So, what’s our next destination?”

Next to the group stood as a man.

The man holding a spear that was taller than a person opened his mouth.

He had always been seen displeasure at climbing the tower.

His eyebrows were furrowed all day long because of it.

He wanted to get out of the tower as soon as possible.

His face was full of such feelings.

“Well, you’re impatient. Someone is chasing us, you know? Let’s wait a little longer. There’s no point in rushing.”

Someone else spoke, looking fed up with his irritability.

He had bandages around his neck, and he scratched the burn marks that were visible through the bandages as if they were itchy.

The spearman knew that this was what he did when he was annoyed.

He was known as Burn.

He was a member of the same whisperers and a colleague for now.

‘Well, he’s eager to rush as well.’

Anyway, that man was always like that.

He pretended to comfort others with words.

But his body was revealing his emotions.

“It’s okay. Old man, take your time! Mr. Mobius is moving separately on his own anyway?”

“Be quiet. You bastard. Both of you, stop chattering over there. Do you think it’s easy to modify the key?”

A wrinkled old man with an eye patch expressed his irritation.

He had been concentrating, but the two had been noisy.

“Do we need to go through all this trouble? We can just kill all the evildoers.”

“Ah, that’s too much trouble. The clans will be annoying too.”

Burn scratched his scar harder.

The wound, which had been scratched by his nails, started to bleed.

But he didn’t care.

That was when it happened.

Burn and the spearman raised their heads at the same time.

Outside the island.

The two of them sensed something coming this way.

“Spearman.”

Burn got up from his seat.

“I think something’s coming.”

“The bastards who stole the key must have sent pursuers.”

The spearman lifted his large spear.

“I’ll take care of it.”

“If you’re going to do it, then fine.”

As if it didn’t matter if he didn’t go himself.

Burn leaned against a giant leaf.

“You won’t be able to defeat me.”

“I won’t be defeated by those who are struggling at the 6th level of the tower.”

The spearman was confident in his strength.

Despite the fact that he was carrying a spear that was larger than a person.

He carried it on his shoulders with ease and began to descend the mountain.

Giant plants continued to appear, as befitting the island of giants.

It was an island that made people feel like ants.

As the spearman descended the mountain, he noticed several figures.

They had anchored their ship far out at sea.

They had come here using magic.

They were moving quickly to the bottom of the cliff, and the spearman recognized them.

This was because their bodies were adorned with the crest of a bear and claws.

The Bear Legion.

They were knights from a family known for their skill with double-handed axes.

And they were the ones who had recently stolen the key to the island from the spearman’s group.

‘That’s why it would be easier to just kill them all.’

An apostle of the Whispering One.

The Six Poisonous Snakes.

Möbius, who had climbed the tower to become the new seventh Poisonous Snake, valued speed above all else.

That’s why he avoided unnecessary fights, which is how this pursuit force came to be.

“I can’t even stretch my body.”

Carrying the spear on his back, he stepped to the edge of the cliff.

Soon, he jumped off the cliff.

THUD!

The moment he landed after falling dozens of meters down the cliff, the ground shook as if an earthquake had struck.

This was because the spear he was carrying was so heavy.

“What!? What the heck is that all of a sudden?”

“Orson, it’s that guy!”

The Bear Legion noticed the spearman belatedly.

As befitting a family of double-handed axemen, they immediately drew their axes.

“Hand over the key right now. Then we’ll spare your life.”

The spearman remained unfazed even as they glared at him with murderous intent.

“Did you really send these guys after us?”

He would have preferred it if there were more of them.

Unfortunately, it seemed like they had really only sent these guys after them.

He had lost the key without even putting it up a proper fight.

Did they not realize that something was wrong at that point?

“You thieves sure do talk a lot.”

Unfortunately, they seemed to be idiots.

They didn’t even suspect that the thief would appear before them so nonchalantly.

“Alright, that’s it.”

That was the moment.

Boom!

The cliff behind Changjabi began to crumble, breaking into two halves.

“It’s a trap!”

The Bareraizens were also taken aback when they saw it.

Just as they quickly turned around and tried to escape into the sea.

Swish!

Their bodies split apart at the point where their feet were planted.

Their entrails and blood splattered everywhere as their upper and lower bodies were separated.

In an instant, the entire group was wiped out and reduced to ashes.

“Tsk.”

Changjabi clicked his tongue, annoyed that he had gotten his hopes up for nothing.

Then he turned around to leave.

That is, until someone appeared before him.

A man carrying a woman on his back appeared from the direction of the sea.

He had an oddly quiet presence, and he roughly dropped the woman.

“Ugh.”

The woman, who hadn’t expected the man to drop her so suddenly, rolled on the ground.

As she grimaced and rubbed her buttocks, the man stared intently at Changjabi.

“The Whisperer.”

And the moment those words left his mouth, Changjabi’s face hardened.

“You?”

The strength drained from Changjabi’s arms.

On his way here, the old woman had muttered about the Whisperer several times.

Since she had dementia, she often spoke nonsense.

So it was possible that someone had overheard her.

But this man was different.

Right before his eyes, he had specifically asked about the Whisperer.

As if he knew something about him.

“Who the hell are you? Are you with these teddy bear bastards?”

Changjabi’s red eyes flashed.

The man nodded confidently when he saw this.

“I have a few questions.”

But before Changjabi could even respond, he swung his spear.

He knows about the Whisperer.

At that point, he had judged him to be an enemy.

That was the moment.

Before Changjabi’s eyes,

His fists were already swinging.

The moment Changjabi quickly twisted his neck, he kicked him.

Along with the heavy spear, he was thrown into the collapsed cliff.

Upon seeing that, Havel let out a deep roar.

“He’ll answer if we ask him. Should I start with his hands?”

He seems like a cheeky bastard.

“Elasha.”

“Yes, master!”

“Find the rest of them.”

They said they were a group.

Then there must be more of them.

Without any questions, Elashia immediately prepared a tracking spell.

Kuung!

At that moment, whether he had heard the commotion or not, a giant grasshopper appeared.

“Tch?”

Even when looking up, it was a grasshopper of such a size that it was dizzying, befitting the Island of Giants.

It seemed to see Havel as its prey and charged at him,

But Havel raised his hands like blades.

DdDdDdDdDdt! Chaeng!

As the grasshopper was torn in half, a strong gust of wind hit Havel’s hands.

“Damn it.”

Between the giant grasshopper that had been split in half,

Changjabi, who had gotten up from the collapsed cliff, could be seen.

He spat out blood as if clearing his mouth.

Then he turned and grasped the spear that had torn the grasshopper.

Havel opened his eyes wide.

Because it had been a long time since he had encountered someone who could move after receiving one of his attacks.

“It seems he’s the type that’s received some kind of proposal.”

At that moment, Changjabi began to swing his spear.

Perhaps because the spear was so large and heavy,

Just that alone caused a storm of debris and sand from the cliff to swirl around.

“You need to know your place.”

The moment Changjabi swung down his spear, a storm flew forth.

It was a tragedy filled with orcs.

Before the tragedy that flew forth, scorching the surroundings,

Havel once again struck the tragedy with his hands.

And with that, the aftershock caused the sea to churn and reveal the bottom.

However, Changjabi’s attacks showed no signs of stopping.

His spear swung again and again, as if he were dancing.

Before him, Havel was brandishing his blade in silence.

The expression on Changjabi’s face began to stiffen.

Changjabi’s wrath was clearly scorching the surroundings.

Even among those in the 6th Stage, there were not many who could withstand his wrath.

However, even among those few strong individuals who could withstand it,

None could block his wrath as calmly as that.

Havel’s expression was blank.

He even looked bored.

At first, he seemed interested slightly.

But soon, he looked down as if he had seen through his level.

Changjabi glared, feeling as if he were being tested.

‘This feeling.’

He had experienced it before.

It was the feeling he had when he met the leaders of the Six Serpents of the Whisperer.

Although their presence was so faint that it was almost indiscernible,

The moment he clashed with them, he felt like he had run into an absurd wall.

‘Surely not.’

Could the man before him be on the same level as the leaders?

‘The leaders must be transcendents.’

A figure on par with those leaders.

Changjabi was bewildered.

And with his instincts, he realized that he was in a dangerous situation.

‘I have to escape.’

He would take the burn victim and the old woman and leave this place immediately.

That was when he made his decision.

“Are you running away?”

Havel opened his mouth.

He lowered his blade, as if he had seen enough.

“Do you think I’d let you do that?”

He had seen through him completely.

Realizing this, Changjabi quickly inhaled deeply.

Then, an aura surged through his entire body.

Thud!

An aura that had turned into a blue lightning aura surged forth.

Before that explosive aura, it felt like the surroundings were being crushed.

Grain’s Mind Andrew Lightning Spear Technique

Thunderbolt

The spear, which was imbued with a deafening thunderbolt, tore through the air.

The moment the surging thunderbolt reached Havel,

It exploded, scattering lightning aura in all directions.

Changjabi turned around without hesitation and ran as soon as he saw it.

Thud!

However, his body suddenly flew into the air.

Crash!

He belatedly realized that he had tripped over something.

He quickly looked up and saw Havel standing there with his foot extended.

“I just offered you the brain a while ago, but will that suffice?”

Changjabi tried to get up right away, but—

“Keuk!”

Havel’s foot was faster and trampled on his back.

“I told you in the beginning. I won’t let you run away.”

“Ugh.”

It felt like a mountain was pressing down on him.

Changjabi couldn’t move an inch.

A sense of crisis surged up from his gut and pounded hard against his mind.

This is dangerous.

This was a truly dangerous situation.

That was when it happened.

Thwack!

Black flames suddenly erupted and burned Havel’s upper body.

The black flames were so intense that Havel’s face couldn’t be seen.

“I saw blue lightning from afar and came over wondering what was going on, but what the heck is this, Changjabi?”

It was none other than Hwasan who appeared, scratching his neck.

However, Changjabi’s eyes widened as soon as he saw Hwasan.

“Hwasan, run away right now!”

“What?”

Hwasan frowned as if to ask what nonsense that was when—

Laughter rang out from between the black flames.

At that moment, Changjabi realized that his body was flying through the air.

In an instant, his body flew towards Hwasan.

Without a moment’s hesitation, Hwasan sent him flying away with the black flames.

‘That son of ab*tch.’

He noticed Havel chasing after him.

So, he raised his hand, intending to burn Havel again.

“Ah.”

However, his eyes widened between the bandages.

Havel was nowhere to be seen.

“That’s right, you should’ve listened to your comrade.”

The voice came from above his head.

It was already too late by the time Hwasan tried to turn around.

His fist had already struck his head.

His eyes flickered from the blow and he lost consciousness.

Havel kicked him roughly as he fell and turned his head.

Then he saw a spearman desperately trying to crawl away despite being burned by black flames.

“Hey.”

Havel picked up the spear he had dropped and threw it with a flick of his wrist.

Thud!

The spearman’s path was blocked by his spear.

The spear that he had wielded as he pleased had suddenly become a wall blocking his way.

“Let’s talk nicely. If you don’t, I’ll ask this guy.”

Of course, the outcome for the one who doesn’t talk is set.

The spearman, who looked like a burn victim, turned his head with difficulty.

“….What do you want to ask me?”

It’s not too late to listen to what he has to say and answer.

He had become a little more polite.
