189 – Welcoming Autumn with Nymphs # 1

“Muhuh, this Barbarossa is going to live with the princess…” ! Seeing that a rare ghost raccoon like a nightmare raccoon follows along well, it means that Princess Irae has a talent for black magic and necromancy… !”

Barbar said he wanted to follow Hairae.

He saw a spark of talent in Ha-rae, who had become an awakened person, and wanted to train and nurture it.

I, who was temporarily protecting Imp Barbar, thought this was a pretty good idea.

Barbar described himself as a little devil, but after watching him for the past few days, he was as kind-hearted as the nymphs.

Although he was a bit odd, he was basically a good friend.

Because she is so kind, her mother and father will be able to take good care of her.

“I too will become the pinnacle of trainers along with Raccoon Leaf… ! Everyone is nervous… ! “I might become S-class in an instant and be called Hi-Rae of the Raccoon!”

━KengKeng… !

Ha Yi-rae shouted, throwing her nightmare raccoon in her arms into the air like a yut on her game board.

“Leaf, it’s a “Raccoon Flame” Aimed at that tree… !”

Grumbling-.

Several purple flames appeared spinning around the raccoon’s body.

It seemed like it was flying away, but it hit a tree and left behind a soot.

What a cute power.

If it had been Angangi’s “Cutting the Tree,” That tree would have been completely slaughtered.

━Zuji… !

However, when Ha Yi-rae saw that weak power, her body trembled.

“Heee…” ! It’s the best… !”

━KengKeng… !

Leaf and Hi-Rae seemed to have already gotten along better.

By the way, Leaf-, which is mentioned here, was the name that Hyrae gave to that raccoon.

I thought I would call him Keng Keng because he cried.

“Princess Irae plans to further cultivate black magic and necromancy in the future to aim for a niche market in the princess power… ! This Barbar is offering to help… !”

“I don’t know what it is, but it sounds fun! “I also have a cute animal and a nymph with a tail!”

“This Barbar is not a nymph, but Barbar, the chief imp comrade and imp of the bonfire… ! The difference between the two must be clearly recognized… !”

Anyway.

With that feeling, Hyrae acquired one imp and one nightmare raccoon.

For a novice party of F-class awakened people, it felt a bit flashy and powerful.

Barbar’s mysterious knowledge.

And the strange strength of the Nightmare Raccoon.

If you can use these two well, Hairae will also be able to level up easily, like me, who met Oinoi and instantly rose from D class to A class.

“Hey, Haildo. Are you okay? “Why does that thing look a little uneasy?”

However, Jinah Lee opened her narrow eyes and said something to me in a low voice.

My younger sister, Hai-rae, who is making a fuss, looks anxious.

“Aren’t you sure you’re going to cause an accident like that?”

“That’s right.”

“Leave it alone. Hi, he gets bored with things quickly from a young age, so it will last for a few weeks at most. I don’t really like trying. “I know it well.”

The life of an awakened person was actually a series of efforts.

Even the S-class awakened people who are said to have been chosen for their talent are actually working hard to improve themselves in places that cannot be seen, right?

However, my younger sister, Hai-Rae, was someone who didn’t like such efforts, and I thought that within a few weeks, Hai-Rae would become bored and lose interest in Awakened life.

Still, whatever.

If you are an F-level awakened person, it becomes a spec on your resume when you are working normally. Even if you don’t have to live an awakened life, you won’t starve to death.

Since your physical ability will be superior to that of the average person, you will be able to work as an ace in places such as logistics companies or construction sites.

“Haildo, thank you for helping us move. Wow, it would have been difficult if I tried to do this alone. A strange raccoon dog also pops out. Anyway, let’s go through the cracks sooner or later and make some money.”

Crump-.

Lee Jin-ah showed her motivation by clenching her fists.

Since she bought a house, she probably wants to save money soon because her bank account is running low.

“Then.”

I also liked going with Lee Jin-ah and her crack.

I don’t know if it’s because of the territoriality of the existing A-rankers, but it was strangely difficult for me to join the A-rank crack party.

It didn’t fit properly.

It was similar to the feeling of being rejected for a party request on the pretext of having a weak job while playing an old online RPG game.

Therefore, Lee Jin-ah and I were saying that we had to have a party somehow to overcome this territoriality.

If I build up my performance and prove myself like this, even the A-rankers will stop childishly bullying me.

Well, you probably don’t know that it’s advantageous to hold hands with a strong person and look good instead of losing.

That was exactly the reason why I got a job at Seo Ye-rim’s Telos company even though I was mistreated in my later years as a D-level person.

Anyway.

With that feeling, Jinah Lee’s move ended well.

Cool fall.

Sssss-.

The wind blowing smelled more like winter than I expected.

“It looks like it’s going to be very cold this winter.”

Autumn is the season of grain and harvest.

It is said to be the season when lots of delicious fruits come out and squirrels and nymphs gain weight.

“Mu Lung Chu… !”

Oinoi, who was harvesting quince fruits from a golden apple tree in the yard, made a strange noise. I thought she was reciting some kind of spell, but I saw her sniffling with her nose running.

“It means that he sneezed… ! Oinoi, I don’t know why autumn is getting cold so quickly… ! She said she thought she might catch a cold… ! Mureungchu… !”

The sound of a sneeze is quite unique.

I couldn’t tell if the nymphs were sneezing strangely or if it was just the cucumbers that were sneezing strangely.

If I were to guess, I think it would be the former….

“This Oinoi is a nymph with honey-colored hair, as beautiful as the shining sun… ! Summer nymphs are usually very active in the summer, but become very weak in the cold winter… !”

I see.

Nymphs seemed to become stronger or weaker depending on the season in which they were born.

Oinoi is a summer nymph born in summer.

It doesn’t go well with winter.

Aguaagu-.

Perhaps that’s why Oinoi opened the bag of chocolate and ate it indiscriminately, eating cookies, or eating ice cream, as if trying to store calories in her body.

It looked like a bear or squirrel that increased its body weight to hibernate.

In fact, it is said that nymphs that are weak to cold, like Oinoi, even hibernate in the winter!

“Oinoi, are you going to hibernate this year?”

“hehehehe, that’s not necessary… ! Because in this capitalist society full of the latest civilizations of the 21st century, there are magic tools called heaters and boilers… !”

It was a reasonable story.

What about the dog squirrel, which is also an animal that hibernates in the winter?

Passuk, Passuk-.

The cat was making holes with its front legs here and there in the yard. I often watched MeTube videos of squirrels, and they said that squirrels dig holes in the ground and hibernate in the winter.

“I wonder if the skunk is going to hibernate too.”

I was a little worried.

It is said that for squirrels, hibernating is an action to survive, but at the same time, it is an extremely dangerous action.

There are quite a few squirrels that cannot wake up after closing their eyes to hibernate.

As I was looking at Keungkyung with a bit of concern, Oi Noi spread her chest wide with pride and smiled.

“The skunk is not meant to hibernate in the winter; it just likes to dig in the ground…” ! Since there is a comfortable boiler, there is no need to hibernate in the winter… !”

“Is that so?”

Passchuk, Passchuk, Passchuk, Passchuk, Passchuk-.

Now that I see it, it seems that the skunk really just likes to dig with its front legs. He seemed to enjoy digging, as if digging was a great pleasure in life.

━Kkeongkeong… !

Food Duck-!

At that time, I heard the sound of loud wings flapping.

Just as a shadow suddenly appeared above my head, something flew in and lunged at me.

━Whoo, whoo… !

This guy was Kalinoi.

He said he had been wandering around freely for the past few days and couldn’t see much, but he seemed to have returned home today.

Kalinoi rushed in to catch Kungkungi.

Kalinoi would often spread its wings and fly in to catch the skunk, as if practicing flight.

━Crumbling… !

Of course, every time that happened, Kkeungkeung made an angry noise and hid in various places.

Today’s cat hid in the tunnel he had worked so hard to dig.

It was a very nimble attitude, and Kalinoi eventually lost sight of it and started waddling around. It looked exactly like a gentleman penguin from Antarctica.

A penguin.

“Kalinoi, haven’t you gained a little weight?”

Horned owl Kalinoi is the phoenix of phoenixes, so it was also called Bonbong Kalinoi.

Kalinoi was originally quite large, but it seemed to have become even more round in the few days I had not seen it.

Have you gained weight?

Soon Oinoi spoke.

“It is said that tiger owls also inflate the amount of feathers for winter hunting… ! It means adapting to the environment to survive the cold… ! It’s called “Cotton feather”… !”

I see.

So this is Kalinoi’s winter mode.

“It seems like its agility and agility have decreased a lot, but its weight has increased so it looks like its strength and durability have increased.”

Was my assessment accurate?

Kalinoi climbed onto a nearby box, spread his wings wide, and let out a high-pitched purr, as if he were extremely proud.

Oinoi walked towards Kalinoi and brushed Kalinoi’s body with a large owl-specific comb.

Then, white cotton feathers, like goose feathers or duck feathers, began to be scraped out with the comb, and Oi Noi collected them well and put them in his bag.

“The downy feathers of the tiger owl can be used to make warm winter outerwear…” ! Oinoi, we must strive for a winter that does not hibernate… !”

━Hiooong… !

From noble mtl dot com

━Miowong… !

Oinoi began weaving and sewing with the spiders. It looked quite skillful and felt stable enough to be boring to look at.

Anyway, it was fall.

It was a time to prepare for winter, and to prepare for this winter, I split firewood and gave a hot pack to Director Bang Saeng-hyeon, a natural person in the apple orchard.

“You guys eat a lot too.”

I lit a bonfire in an abandoned field and piled up a pile of almonds and acorns for the wild dog squirrels, honey ants, wolf spiders, and horned owls living in Taecho Village.

No matter what, fall goes smoothly.

It was a day so rich that it was on a completely different level from last year’s fall, when I suffered from a D grade for the rest of my life. I yawned and looked at my phone, feeling sluggish.

“A big uproar occurred at the S-Rank extraordinary meeting!”

“Signs of major change in the S-class rankings that have been solidified to some extent!?”

「Media focuses on the announcement of a ranking battle between S-class rankers」

“A battle for rankings?”
