Chapter 107 Lets get this over with quickly.

A day had passed since they entered the danger zone of Verkel.

This place is even more unpleasant than I expected.

Trixie muttered as she looked around.

The ground was dry and ominous, the air was filled with stagnant magic, and countless monsters lurked everywhere.

The three mages walked through this place full of various dangers.

As they walked, they sometimes heard the eerie cries of monsters that they could not understand.

What was he thinking?

Trixie rubbed her forehead with her hand.

She had thought the magic circle was related to teleportation.

None of the three had predicted this.

With a flawless spell, he used magic as a catalyst to send them all to the danger zone.

It was a gamble and a miracle.

That was Flans magic.

Signal, emergency escape, calmness.

These were the three things they needed to survive in the danger zone.

Looking back, each of those spells was a clue.

Thanks to calmness, the three were able to stay relatively composed in this sudden situation.

Louis opened his mouth.

Flan must have a plan. Besides, theres no place where you can earn more points than the danger zone.

What plan? Its the third day of the hunt. And to make matters worse, Flan is separated from us.

Trixies eyes turned to the record of the hunt. The top teams, including Celestial Blessing, were still diligently accumulating points.

No, that was an understatement.

They had no choice but to accumulate points.

The moment the point increase of a team that entered the danger zone stopped, it was almost the same as not being able to confirm their survival.

Thud. Thud.

From now on, we have to be alert. If we cant join Flan, we have to do it ourselves.

Thud. Thud.

Why is it so noisy when Im talking?

Trixie turned her head irritably.

And soon she was taken aback.

?

Becky was walking behind them, killing the conspicuous insect-type monsters with an ice dagger.

What are you doing?

Huh? You should do it too. You get points if you catch these.

Ha.

Trixie sighed deeply.

The points they could get from the baby spiders were too meager.

Whats the point of collecting such small points?

You have to start from the small things.

Its useless. I told you.

Its only possible to make a mountain out of a molehill when theres no comparison.

Now that the high-ranking knights were raking in points like crazy, the molehills would remain molehills no matter how much they collected.

Since were in the danger zone, its important to target at least one big monster for sure. And joining Flan is the first priority.

Flan will probably run into us soon, right? f(r)eeweb(n)ovel

Can you stop spouting vague hopes?

Its true. I feel something like a signal.

Trixie tilted her head slightly.

Is there a signal that he can sense?

Trixie had also succeeded in understanding the signal spell. But at least for Trixie, there was nothing she could sense right now.

Are you sure its Flans signal?

Yeah. Im sure.

Trixie looked at Becky with a new eye.

When it came to Flan, Becky had a strangely sensitive intuition.

Trixie stared at Becky with a strange expression for a while, then snorted and chuckled.

You look like lovers to anyone who sees you.

Love What did you say?

Becky stuck to Trixie.

Very close.

Close enough to feel each others breath.

What did you just say?

Love

Trixie, who was about to say lovers, clamped her mouth shut.

Somehow, seeing Beckys expression that wanted to hear that word, she felt like she would be saying what Becky was going to want her to say.

Never mind.

Huh? Trixie.

Never mind. Dont worry about it.

Without giving Becky the answer she wanted, Trixie just swept her hair back haughtily.

But, this doesnt look like a forest, does it?

Louis, who had been walking ahead, finally said something.

Becky nodded quietly at his words.

Yeah. I was just thinking the same thing.

Becky looked around with a blank expression.

I was relieved when I found the path, but it feels weird as I walk. Its like Im being led somewhere?

Yeah. It feels more like a maze than a forest.

A maze in a dangerous area. Thats ominous

Beckys face was filled with worry.

But her doubts about the terrain soon faded.

She felt something more serious.

Huh?

Wait a minute.

The three of them stopped at the same time.

They all had the same impression.

A powerful energy surged and quickly subsided.

Lets go.

Ugh, Im scared

We have no choice. Theres only one way. We have to go.

Becky quietly followed behind the two who took the lead.

And after about ten minutes, they faced the source of the energy that had erupted.

Its a corpse.

Trixie muttered lowly.

The scene of three knights bleeding and falling miserably.

They felt a chill as they saw the eyes that couldnt even close.

Ghosts? Are they ghosts or nameless corpses?

Becky swallowed her dry saliva.

She didnt feel any affinity for the knights, but she was sorry for the death of others.

Louis knelt on one knee and examined the corpses closely.

He soon shook his head.

No. Theyre human.

Human knights?

Look here.

Louis pointed to the wrist where he could feel the pulse.

On the skin of the corpses, there were blue circuits like blood vessels, characteristic of unique ability users.

They shivered.

At the same time, they all realized where they were standing.

The life-or-death game, the oath they submitted, the warning about the dangerous area They knew all of that from the beginning.

But even though they knew everything, they were shocked to see the other representatives dead.

This is real.

Becky whispered quietly.

Under the name of the representative, they could not get any help from anyone.

A moment of carelessness would lead to eternal rest.

Trixie was the first to regain her calmness.

Whats the big deal? Why do people go crazy over the Hunting competition? They already knew they could d*e.

Well, yeah Ugh.

Becky turned her head away as if she couldnt look anymore.

I wish Flan was with me.

Louis said quietly.

There was only one person who came to his mind in this situation.

From now on, be careful even with your breathing. Were not guaranteed to be different.

Trixie warned as he did.

A few insect-like monsters rustled past the three of them.

Ugh, the insect monsters have grown bigger, havent they?

Crack!

Becky froze them all at once.

The next moment, the palm-sized monsters shattered into ice fragments.

Phew, at least theyre easy to k**l.

What are you doing?

Huh?

Becky tilted her head as if to ask what he meant.

We have to k**l them like this so their guts dont burst. If they splatter everywhere, its really disgusting

No, you idiot.

Trixie sighed in frustration.

Be careful with your breathing. Didnt I just tell you that? You heard me, right?

I was careful enough

Becky shrugged as if she felt wronged.

And isnt it safer to k**l them? Besides, the score goes up nicely.

Thats when it happened.

Ssssss!

The rustling sound started again.

It doubled and then became so loud that it hurt their ears.

Huh?

As the sound grew louder, so did their confusion.

They all turned their heads toward the source.

!

What the hell!

Insect monsters? So many of them?

A huge number of insect monsters were rushing toward them like a wave.

It was more than a swarm, it was an army.

Trixies eyes sparked with fire.

Becky, you!

Me, me, me? Its my fault?

Who else could it be!

As he said that, Trixie shaped a fire wolf.

Louis and Becky quickly raised their mana.

Kugugugugu!

As the spiders approached, the ground shook as if it was about to collapse.

The disgusting creatures that would make anyone flinch came together like a wave and attacked.

Come on, gather around me!

Becky panicked and spread an ice shield in a semicircle over the three of them.

She didnt care about counterattacking, she just wanted to protect their bodies.

Becky, you! Get rid of this!

If I do, were doomed!

Youre trapping us in here. Why did you mess with the insect monsters in the first place!

The anger toward Becky grew louder.

She clenched her eyes and desperately spread the ice.

Huh?

But it didnt take long for the misunderstanding to be cleared.

The baby spiders ignored them as if they were nothing.

As if they didnt care about them, the spider monsters stepped on the semicircular ice that covered the three of them and passed by.

What?

Werent they coming for us?

They all stared blankly at the tails of the insect monsters.

They were relieved, but they had no idea what was going on.

Kurururu!

Then, at that moment.

A chilling resonance echoed through the ground.

They turned their heads and saw a giant queen spider staring at them with countless eyes.

It was so big that it made the trees look funny, and it had a sinister aura that was incomparable to the monsters they had encountered before.

The trio were speechless.

The spiders just now were all running away. It was a fleeting moment, but they understood everything.

What do we do now?

Becky muttered quietly.

There was no answer.

Kurururu

The spider pulled out a long red thread from its body.

It wrapped around the main joints of the knights, and then they started to move as if they were alive.

!

The three of them were stunned by the horrifying sight.

Its controlling the corpses? Can we still?

No. Its too late to run.

Trixie cut off Beckys words.

Insect monsters.

Thats when Louis whispered quietly.

Louis, we know its a bug-type monster

Not that. The one in front of us.

He shook his head slowly.

Then what?

The small bug-type monsters, theyre coming back from behind.

?

Louis was telling the truth.

When I looked back, I saw the ones that had passed us by were rushing towards us again.

Before, it was only spider monsters. But now, all kinds of bug-type monsters are mixed in.

If it was a wave that had gone by before, then this was a tsunami.

Aaaah!

Becky screamed and squeezed out her last strength.

The tsunami of bug-type monsters swept over the ice dome that she had created.

Why why are they coming back!

Just focus on defense!

One second. Ten seconds. Thirty seconds.

I pushed my mana to the limit and agony struck me.

It was unbearable pain, but my desire to live was much stronger.

And as a result of enduring and enduring.

We did it!

When the last spider had gone by, Becky shouted with joy.

But.

I soon realized that there was no time to celebrate.

There was an unbelievable sight in front of my eyes.

What

The bodies and legs of the bugs scattered everywhere, the bug-type monsters were all chopped up.

The cause was the knights bodies that the queen spider controlled.

How is that possible?

Becky trembled at the reality before her eyes.

It was hard to believe that they had swept away the tsunami like dust.

The corpses of the knights tied with red threads seemed to talk to me. Youre next, they said.

My legs wobbled.

Just then.

The red threads tightened slightly, and before I could blink, the corpses of the knights charged at me.

No, they were too lively and fierce to be called corpses.

I hadnt even thought of how to deal with them.

Becky! Block them!

I heard Louiss urgent shout.

Too late

Thats all I muttered.

Kwaaang!

With a loud noise, the space exploded.

The empty air rippled like a mirage, and the red threads flew far away.

The three of us were stunned by the unexpected situation.

And then, we understood what had happened.

What a joke. Its just one bug.

A cold voice.

The source of the bug-type monsters tsunami.

And the one who made us all come to this dangerous area.

A man with a calm face, as if he owned the mansion.

A man who only pursued the path of a mage.

Flan.

He still stood there indifferently, but the magic he radiated was as vast as the sea.

Relief showed on everyones face.

You

Flan!

At some point, he started to walk slowly.

But, theres still one.

He flicked his fingers a few times.

A bug that doesnt know its place.

The red threads were cut off in the air.

Lets finish this quickly and move on.

He ended the queen spiders puppet show, and Flan spoke calmly.

Ive found something very interesting.
