043 – Oinoi and the Little Stationery # 7

“My daughter! Sunah! It must be good!”

A woman in her bone armor stepped up to her and she grabbed her cheek with her hand. She and she hugged her in her arms, which was very moving.

“Is this a dream? Meeting Sunah here! Sunah, why are you so skinny!”

“Mom, I am not Lee Seon-ah. I must be Lee Jin-ah.”

“You are Jin-ah!?”

Shut-.

Only then did the woman look straight at the yellow-haired woman standing in front of her. She opened her slender eyes, and the expression on her face became very colorful.

“Jinah was really small! Are you really Jin?”

“… Huh! Because it is! Mom, I’m so glad you’re alive! I’m here to save you! A lot has happened, but I don’t think I have time to explain it, so I need to get out of here!”

Mother-daughter reunion after 10 years.

We had a lot to talk about and a lot to share, but unfortunately we couldn’t say we didn’t have a lot of time.

Well, getting out of this anomalous rift was an urgent priority.

Since it was not a normal crack, no one knew what would happen.

Then Koris, the nymph of ice water, spoke.

“The entrance to this temple is being blocked by a fearsome troll king… ! This Koris was imprisoned in the temple because he couldn’t defeat the troll king….”

The troll king?

Was there such a monster?

I have read many books, videos, and academic journals about the monsters and their ecology that appear in cracks.

I thought that if I studied, there would be an opportunity for me to rise from D-level to C-level and beyond.

Also, it was fun to investigate the ecosystem that appears in the rift itself.

But I hadn’t even heard of the existence of the ‘king of trolls’. Is it an undiscovered monster? Assuming that each troll was B-rank, the troll king must have been at least B-rank.

Indeed, if a guy like that lurks somewhere in this temple, he must be in great danger.

What should I do in this situation?

Of course, the method was decided.

“There is no need to fight. We left the rope at the top of the glacier. It’s not too far from here, so you can run quickly!”

You don’t have to take risks and fight. If you go up the way you came, it’s over.

We went up the glacier using ropes with that feeling.

“It means that I really came out of the temple… ! This Koris, I thought I had to fight in the temple with trolls, alien fairies, for the rest of my life, but I lived… ! I mean thank you… !”

Warak-It was Koris who raised both hands.

And the wife at the moving center also seemed very surprised.

“You really left the temple, right? You said you came to rescue us, right? How are you all living? Where the hell is this? How much time has passed!?”

“Mom, let me go out and explain! Hail too! You remember where people were evacuated back then! Let’s get out of there!”

I remembered.

I saw something like a high, pointed mountain near the exit.

And then I saw that high and pointed mountain about 1km away from where we are now standing.

I don’t know what the actual distance was, but it wasn’t that far.

“Let’s go!”

# # #

We started running on the icy road now.

Everyone walked lightly and felt good.

To achieve something that seemed impossible, I challenged the impossible and really succeeded.

I can’t believe I saved a person who went missing 10 years ago.

It was very emotional and I felt proud of myself.

If this incident spreads on the Internet, won’t I become famous again? When you search the name “Haildo” On the Internet, how many pages of the latest articles might come up!

I didn’t know if it would be posted on hot articles or concept articles.

As we ran with such thoughts in mind, we were able to arrive at a sharp mountain and found a shining exit beneath it.

Judging by the elliptical shape, it was a portal-type exit.

“Oinoi! Corris! And madam! Go in first!”

In the rift, the most important thing was to stay vigilant until the very end. We’ve reached the final moment, and finally the figures of Koris and Oinoi have disappeared into an elliptical portal.

Zuuung-.

I now looked at the wife at the moving center.

“Madam! Go! It looks suspicious, but this will get you in front of the best stationery store! Lee Jin-ah! Get out right away!”

“Okay! Mom! Let’s go!”

Suwooung-.

Finally, Lee Jin-ah pushed her wife’s back. Seeing them disappear, I let out a sigh of relief for the first time.

“Successful rescue of survivors.”

Our goal has been achieved.

Then, the survival and escape of Lee Jin-ah and I will be the most important things. It was when Lee Jin-ah approached her portal with that feeling.

Knock-.

I felt something grab my ankle.

At the same time, I felt like my body was floating, and then I felt as if I was rapidly sinking towards the bottom of the cold glacier.

“Gah!”

This whole process took less than a second.

When I came to my senses, the solid ice was raising my body as if it were causing a cataclysm, and it had a head and limbs like a human.

“Lingan—. Kill-. Eat—!”

From noble mtl dot com

Quaaa.

Its body was made of ice, but it looked like a troll-like being from the vocabulary and form of its speech.

Compared to the trolls we met inside the temple earlier, it was bigger than the trolls, and it was about 4 meters tall, so it was impressive.

“Could this be the troll king?”

“Hey! Hail too!”

Lee Jin-ah standing in front of the door.

And the troll king standing between me and Lee Jin-ah.

A desperate situation in many ways.

What is the right decision to make in this situation?

“If my prediction is correct, the rift door here will close in 10 minutes.”

The crack that appeared in the best stationery store was closed in about 40 minutes.

Looking at the watch on the wrist, the current time is 17:55.

Since the rift opened around 17:20, it meant that there was only 5 to 10 minutes left.

What if that time passes?

I would have to remain in this frozen spot, just like the wife at the moving center did.

“Hey! Hail too! Are you okay!”

“It’s okay! Lee Jin-ah! Get out first! I’ll try to catch your attention somehow!”

“Get out! This guy, no matter how you look at it, looks like an A-class monster, but how are you going to deal with it alone! You, if I leave like this, I will die! A, sir—”

Shut-.

Jina Lee placed her thumbs on her temples before going out to her portal. Lee Jin-ah, who wanted to do something, immediately said, “uuu-.”

Soon the guy shouted.

“Actually, I didn’t tell you! I can manipulate other people’s emotions even though it’s very fleeting! Two seconds is the limit for this monster! 2 Seconds! I’ll make a gap for two seconds, so come quickly!”

Jinah Lee can manipulate the emotions of others?

She was very strange and had great abilities.

But she didn’t even have a moment to think.

“Now!”

“Yeah—. Lingan—”

The giant ice troll king stopped moving in a fit of rage.

1 Sec─.

I ran quickly. I just brushed past the ice troll and was about to head towards the entrance, but before 2 seconds, the troll’s huge ice bat was swung towards the entrance with all my might.

Huung, Quaaang-!

“I can’t go out—! Delicious guys! Catch and eat! The sin of waking this troll king Kurish with a loud noise before spring even came! I will catch and eat you!”

Go oh oh oh-.

It was the troll king who shouted with a very powerful voice.

Kurish.

This seems to be his name.

Did you wake up from the dynamite I set off?

The problem was that it took less time to deprive him of his senses than the two seconds that Jinah Lee had promised. A giant ice icicle over 3 meters tall was whipping up, and both I and Lee Jin-ah got away from the exit.

“f*ck! It was so big that it was hard to control!”

Lee Jin-ah gritted her teeth.

It was clear that the ability to manipulate the emotions of others would require tricky magic control. It was also an ability with great potential.

“Can’t you do it again?”

“I want to, but I can’t. It consumes a lot of mental energy, so you have to wait for about an hour.”

1 Hour.

Will we have such a time?

No, the time given to us is less than 10 minutes.

!

-Zuji… !

Just then, the two animals on my shoulders leapt forward. They pounced on the troll king, Kurish, and slammed into his legs.

“Annoying flies—! Animals that can’t even be eaten—!”

Troll King Kurish swishes his arms and legs from side to side.

Dog squirrel Seeing that there was no damage even after being hit by Kyeongkyeongi’s torso, it seemed that his ice-hard body was not in form.

It might have the same strength as the glacier at the bottom.

“Wait—.”

Glacier.

There was something about that word.

I still had one more stick of dynamite in my belt.

If it’s an object that emits enough power to pierce a glacier, wouldn’t it be able to damage that troll king?

Zuuung-.

After I pulled out my beam saber, I said to Jinah Lee.

“I explain only once. Listen carefully to what I have to say from now on. When I give the three-signal, you run straight toward the exit without stopping. Then use your ability to bind him for one second.”

“Not so soon—.”

“I have to. Otherwise we all die. Are you going to die here!? Jin-ah, calm down. Cracks are just like that! It’s a place where you risk your life! So, count! One-two-.”

Three─.

I ran as hard as I could towards the troll king.

Its movement was faster than that of a large body, but because Kyeongkong and Angangi were struggling, I was able to approach it when I was distracted.

“Asura Pacheon!”

I slashed the troll king’s ankle with a beam saber that I infused with all my might.

A beam saber attack with C-class magic power.

However, the body made of ice was too hard, so all it did was make a small scratch.

“But it can hurt! If it can hurt, it means it can kill!”

Pot-.

I kicked the king of trolls on his knees and jumped on his shoulders. And with the beam saber, I continued to cut his shoulder.

Zuung, Zuuung-.

Pat, papat-!

The ice body was destroyed by the beam saber and scattered and splashed on the face, but there was no time to worry.

“You bastard—! I will eat you and get through this winter! I am Kuri-sh-! He is the king of trolls!”

Go oh oh-.

A huge hand reaching out towards me.

I wondered if I would be caught like this, but my hand stopped.

“Euuu, anything is fine, so try it!”

When I turned my head, Lee Jin-ah was standing in front of the exit again with her hand on her temple.

Bleeding was dripping from his nose, and I wondered if there was a problem with the blood vessels in the brain due to the excessive use of his abilities.

He must have also prepared for death.

“Okay! Hold on!”

I kept shooting the beam saber down on my shoulder. A small hole that was barely made. It was about the size of my thumb, but it was good enough.

Chuck-.

I put the special dynamite into the gap and immediately hit the trigger button.

aaa!!!!

There was no time to cover one’s ears and no time to escape from the blast.

My body buung-floated into the air and I fell just as fast.

Beep-.

Tinnitus heard in many ways.

In my blurry vision, I could see a huge body collapsing with its shoulder severely broken.

“ㅁ──!!!”

I heard Lee Jin-ah shouting something at me.

Soon, I felt the tug and tug of my arm as they bit me.

We have to escape now-.

When I get up with that thought-.

Sssss-.

It seemed that a very strong winter wind was blowing, and everything around it froze, and the body of the giant was seen to regenerate in an instant.

Even with a body made of ice, a troll’s regenerative power seems to remain unchanged.

“Hey, isn’t this cheating?”

“Kurish-. I won’t die until spring comes! Let the cold winter go and let the warm spring come! Before that, witch, eat! Annoying guy—!”

He looked at Lee Jin-ah, who was now standing at the dimensional gate.

He must have thought that Lee Jin-ah’s ability was annoying.

Neither Kyeongkung nor Angangi can move their bodies due to the chill that freezes everything around them.

I grabbed my animal friends and threw them as hard as I could toward Lee Jin-ah.

“Lee Jin-ah! Take them out! I’m in charge of this guy!”

“Well, then you!”

“You come to rescue me again! I don’t die easily! There was a special move that I wanted to try out in real combat. Hey! Troll! You will have to be really careful this time!”

Zuuung-.

When I picked up the beam saber and emitted the light, Kurish, who was dealing with us, also picked up the giant ice properly.

“Ringan─, strong─. I heard that the heroes of this land all died in the war, but– Kurish, you, admit it—. Therefore, I will kill you!”

As I drew the attention of the troll king, I saw the dimensional gate in front of Lee Jin-ah slowly close.

It was evidence that the cracks were disappearing.

Lee Jin-ah threw Kyeongkonggi and Angangi into the dimensional door and closed her eyes tightly.

“Hey! I am also an Awakener Naburang! Do you think I can leave you like this! If I leave you like this, I won’t have to live entangled in today’s day again!”

Pot-.

Finally, Lee Jin-ah fell from the dimensional door.

That was the moment.

Gentle-.

The ice and snow around the area began to melt. Jorrr-. It melted so quickly that the melting sound could be heard as a stream.

The air warms up instantly.

Everyone was taken aback by this situation.

“What? What’s going on! Hail too! Did you do it Is it your special move?”

“No, this is not what I did. Is this possible—”

Tak-.

The troll king Kurish opened his mouth as he watched the massive ice pillar melt like his own body. He said as the bastard looked around.

“Bo—Has spring come-. The long cold of Fimblebert is finally over— Has spring come to our lives? Comrades- Can you see-! The approaching spring—!”

The king of trolls, Kurish, opens his mouth in delight. His vocabulary improved, perhaps because the weather was warmer. Was it because his frozen tongue and head melted in moderation?

But he soon seemed to sense that something was wrong.

“Huh? It’s hot, it’s hot! My body——melting—! It’s not spring-! Summer—!? No, hotter than summer! Die-! Everything melts—!”

Indeed, everything that had melted just like what he said started to boil hotly.

Kurish didn’t seem to understand the situation, but I saw a man walking away with his hands in his coat pockets.

He wasn’t like Bom.

“Infernal heat.”
