Isekai Journey Of The Magic Archer-Chapter 404 Corpses

-Dhruuuuuuuuuuuuum! Bhum!

-Dhruuuuuuuuum! Bhum!

...

"Wow... fuck."

"Amazing..."

[< O-oh my... >]

[ "G-gorgeous...!" ]

[[ Preeeeeeeeety~! ]]

[[ A moment of perfection... ]]

As soon as Zuroro moved the large slabs of gold covering the coffins opening the covers and we saw the two bodies, preserved perfectly, lying in the comfortable space, we all were just... speechless.

As Branwen said, it was an impeccable beauty. A moment of perfection. Something that would make anyone looking at it speechless. And more than anything, 'he' was far prettier than 'her'.

"It's the same person we fought just now?" she asked, her eyes glowing with genuine admiration.

She usually only has that kind of look while looking at me, Celes, or some super pretty beings like us, so it was even more amazing she was astonished by another person's looks.

But, I could understand her heart. The body of the man lying in one of the coffins was something inexplicable.

It was almost at the level of the headmaster, but... not just like him.

He was a wizard with unreal strengths while this person was a normal human. Or more like the dead body of the human who had died a long, long time ago.

The runes inscribed on the tomb preserved the two bodies with the greatest effect and the inscription of the rune was great enough that even I couldn't do better than this.

It was amazing... but the two people lying in the coffins...

'Just... amazing.'

One was a woman with long, reddish-brown hair, a smooth face, cherry lips, and an alluring body with 'great assets', adorned with a pretty head, ear, and neck jewelry, she possessed gorgeous blue eyes when looking with my three eyes.

She looked breathtaking in that amazing green one-piece. Young looking, but definitely someone who must have been a strong person during her time... just like what this epic written on the walls recorded.

"She was called sorceress of red winds, Salvio Aella Zephyros. According to this epic, she was an amazing person."

Their story was something cool. It started with the small introduction of their tribe and the small civilization that, from the description, was, surprisingly, just as modern as today's time.

Then, there was the introduction of the wise ruler of their tribe, Salvio Neron Ned. The enemies who coveted their knowledge as well as their kind, even wanting to make them their slaves. And lastly, one of such enemies who accidentally met Neron, received his help in a difficult time and formed a special friendship that bloomed to become unconditional love.

The main plot is normal sounding and all but, the way all of it is described... god, it's fabulous~.

The main element of the epic is the two main characters and their time together, starting from their meeting to their tragic fate that asked for both their lives for the sake of the future of the people they cherished.

The epic on these walls is a poet, a heartwarming love story, and a comedy-drama, and at the end, it is also a tragic account of events that lead to the demise of the protagonists.

It is an amazing literary piece of the past that should be known by the world. And I know I will make sure to do that.

But for now... there were two dead bodies before us. One of a chief that held great knowledge of medicine, life, and creatures. And the other one being his great lady.

She was gorgeous, but the beauty that this man's body lying before us couldn't be described with just my lowly words.

His long green-blue hair of light shade was like the gorgeous waters of the coral reef. A perfect face so perfectly molded in the golden ratio of nature that it was perhaps the personification of beauty. The dress he was wearing right now wasn't much different from the lavish, fashionable noble clothes. And the eyes that I can see with my three eyes were... pure gold.

He looked amazing, maybe even mesmerizing. And it took all of us a while to get over this dead body. Thankfully, no one here had necrophilia... things would have been very difficult if someone did have such attractions. f𝗿e𝙚𝘸e𝐛𝚗𝐨𝙫𝚎𝙡.c𝒐𝐦

"Anyway..." I spoke up first and their attention to the corpse was broken as they came to their senses and focused on me.

"They were amazing people to have such amazing artifacts and resources. And most importantly..."

I was looking through all the things in the two coffins with my blue eyes and aside from the special gifts left behind by the people that made this place, three things caught my eye.

A necklace embedded with a special gem lying in her coffin, and a book and strange box lying in his coffin.

I picked up the book, and she picked up the pure white metallic box. She was attracted to it more than I thought. But it was understandable as aside from her unparalleled darkness attribute affinity, her water attribute affinity was not something to look down upon.

And as I thought... it happened as soon as she picked it.

-Ooooooooooooooong!

-Shimmmmmmmm!!

-Kuuuuuu~.

"...?!" her eyes widened as soon as the white light from the box turned the whole box blue and this simple-looking metallic box vanished inside her hands. She was naturally perfect for it, so it chose her.

"Congratulations. I know he would have smirked if he were alive." I smiled warmly as I looked at her surprised expression.

It was natural, though. It was her first time binding with an ancient artifact, after all.

'Three eyes.'

============

[Drop of Nir] (Owner: Reinelle Atraxia Von Babylon Ur Alicia O. Night.)

---> It's a weapon. No shit it chose her...

---> It's peculiar that the one who possessed it previously wasn't even a weapon wielder, but right now, it is in the hands of the perfect person.

---> An artifact that can change according to the will of the master, one of rare and very old [EFMW].

---> As with most EFMWs, this one's strength also depends on the strength of the owner. And as this one's a special ancient artifact, the actual limitations of its strengths are unknown.

---> As the core of this artifact is, very surprisingly, the breath of a [World turtle], the weapon possesses practically eternal life.

---> In the current state, the artifact increases the owner's vitality, quickens the natural healing ability, and makes the use of the whole of the water attribute easy.

---> Its base ability grants the owner natural control over water and when molded in the form of a weapon, its sharpness becomes enough to cut even the hard Mana stones.

---> She is amazing. Learn something from her... and her pretty eyes.

============

'My eyes like her eyes...?'

Well, I really didn't want to think too deeply about this thing. So moving to the main thing...

EFMW: Ethereal Formless Moldable Weapons. A rare kind of weapon that possesses no certain form and the owner of the weapon can change the form of the weapon at their own will.

They are very rare as few people in the whole world are ever able to create something like them and not many even know the methods to create such unreal artifacts.

They are a special kind of ego weapon that grows with the master and this growth is not just the mental growth of the Ego but also the physical growth of the whole artifact.

Rein is as gifted in wielding her weapon as my energy manipulation, so it was just natural that an EFMW made from one of the creatures of [Mythos], a pillar-like divine creature's byproduct as the core would choose her.

'It's useless for me, anyway...'

I was an archer, and these EFMWs were not something that can become arrows. Fly, hit the target, and return to the master. It was sometimes possible to detach a small part from the core body, but in any archer's case, it can become a bow, not an arrow.

EFMWs weren't for archers. And Rein was the perfect candidate to have this one.

This weapon was still an armature and actually a child. I was looking forward to how it will grow with her.

It was an amazing artifact to take the place of her main weapon, as she still didn't have that.

So... it was ultimately best that we came here and defeated the evil spirit. Rein got something she can use as her main weapon.

Still, it will take a while for this weapon to grow to the point that it could replace her (level-11) scythe. That thing was a good artifact too.

I was looking forward to seeing how she uses this new toy and she read this highest grade of curiosity in my eyes and sighed in disbelief...

"Fool. So... what's that?" she asked with a warm smile that genuinely believed I was a fool.

She had just obtained something so valuable that could cause wars and my attitude towards it was as casual as a parent giving their child some simple candy.

But she also understood this casual behavior. I was someone who threw divine artifacts at her casually. An ancient artifact, a bound one which I couldn't even use, was of no great value to me.

I was just happy that she got something amazing, and she found it even funnier...

But the thing in my hand, this simple-looking book, was nothing less valuable than that ancient artifact.

"This... this is the great knowledge of the past. Something the whole world should know about."

I had looked through the book, so I handed it to her with a genuine expression of admiration.

She flipped through the pages, and her eyes also widened at the detailed and amazing degree of fitness that the simple-looking book contained. f𝘳ℯℯ𝙬𝒆𝚋𝐧oν𝑒Ɩ.c𝑜𝙢

"It's at least half a level higher than the current medical knowledge the world knows for some fields. Some of these weird parts are even revolutionary…!"

Though she might not be able to understand some of the verbal things of unknown languages, her amazing eyes could definitely decipher the old language in that book. She was also a true noble and possessed general medical knowledge, so she knew just how great it was.

I knew most of the things would still be strange, unknown, and unreal to her, but she knew the value this one book held was far more than her one artifact.

It could help the whole world if they did things properly, so she understood the genuine admiration in my eyes.

And the book in her hands was an artifact book, with each page having a hundred magic pages. And the book itself had hundreds of pages, so it was even more amazing.

It was an unbelievable reward. Something that was definitely worth our almost two days of torturous work.

I was the happiest one because I will be able to read something new after such a long time and compare the things in this book with the things I already knew about.

'It will be fun~!'

I was happy, and I knew Celes was also happy that I was happy.

An ancient artifact and this old knowledge weren't the only things in these coffins, either.

There were many herbs, flowers, and different natural things that were also preserved in perfect condition with the bodies.

They were invaluable things that would be worth hundreds of platinum in today's market and with the almost null supply of them, one could actually ask for any price if they put it for auction.

They were unbelievable things, but I had no great interest in any of them.

Rein can have them all, or her grandparents can take care of these things for her.

This whole place fell under their name, so these small things should go to them.

I had already obtained plenty from here. From a great group of povpoi. A special one among them. A strong lizardman that will definitely surprise her grandparents, the book of souls, and the things we obtained from fighting the enemies.

This entire experience and the knowledge of this whole marvelous epic on these walls were also no less than a blessing.

I learned many things from this small expedition, but still, that last thing was something that I was really interested in...

"A necklace with an Arcane crystal... it's definitely gorgeous. But why are you interested in this one?"

"It will look pretty on Anna," I answered her genuine question with a warm smile. And that much was enough for her to understand the interested look in my eyes.

Condensed crystals of Arcane energy were rare but not as rare as the golden tear that I already had.

This particular necklace was small and only had this one red crystal with a golden chain.

It wasn't even as amazing as the other artifacts in her coffin. But as I said... it would definitely look on Anna.

Its red gem would be a perfect match with her eyes.

Rein understood that much, so she smiled and handed me the necklace.

"This time..." she said with an expression that was convincing herself to give up something obviously important.

She loved Anna as much as me and she knew that Anna would love to have this necklace as a gift, too.

It was natural that she would be happy to receive this gift, so she had to give it to her and receive her prize and love.

She could definitely do as much. And I would definitely try my best to have this necklace, but... she just gave up on it this time.

She would let me have my lovely Anna's praise this time and thinking from my perspective... it was genuinely a great sacrifice!

"Thanks~!" I cheered and hugged her... which was out of the blue for her, so she suddenly blushed.

I liked this blushing face...

She liked it too, even with that blush. So she didn't mind it. And instead, just coughed and looked back at the things in the two enormous coffins.

[[ Hehehe. ]]

Celes was laughing at this common reaction again while the lich Morris and my lizardman Zuroro were genuinely surprised.

This was their first time seeing the tough and strong Reinelle acting like some actually cute girl.

'Good thing they are smart enough to not show it obviously. A punch would hit them and they would be sent flying otherwise...'

The two of them were good at controlling themselves. And their lizardman and skeleton faces were hard to read, so it was better.

'Good.' I gave the two a thumbs up that told them their decision was the right one and, as she was still looking down, she thankfully didn't notice this.

They also gave me a thumbs up with obvious cold shivers running down their spines.

They could understand that if even I feared this person, they would be no better than an ant before her.

So we were safe... the expedition was finished too.

We had searched the place and wrapped the things up after a while... and when we came out of this place after two days, after a few years for the two of them, the first thing that greeted us was the cool night breeze of the island.

The night was cool, and the moon was smiling down at us just as most of the time.

The stars in the sky weren't much visible because of the dark clouds but I can definitely say that the sky here was amazingly beautiful~!

It was a nice place, but we didn't stay there for long. The fear of night and the night's ferocious creatures was high in a place that housed creatures of darkness and night.

So, we just crossed the boundary, and this time... the thing that greeted us was something nostalgic for me, something hateful for her, something pretty for Celes, and something fascinating for the two of our new companions.

"Snow..."

"Tsk. It has come again."

[[ Wowwwww~! ]]

[[ It will be different from now on master... ]]
