Solo Leveling- Ragnarok

Chapter 120:

Quay! Guess whoever sees it first!

The only command given to Quay, who turned into a shadow arrow and was shot out.

To accomplish that task, Quay made her way through the blizzard and turned in search of the nearest prey.

And I realized

That there are too many enemies.

frozen forest.

There were so many eyes watching the hunters who were falling through the cracks in the sky all over the glacier dungeon.

And a few of them unrelentingly attacked the black arrow, Quay, who was flying through the blizzard before anyone else.

Shush shush shush shush!

Quay's eyes flashed as he watched the countless arrows flying in the blizzard to intercept him.

[Who dares to stop me!]

Quay growled ferociously.

It was just laughable.

He is his master's arrow.

It was the strongest arrow that added the attack power of the bow to the power of the Shadow Soldier.

How can those ordinary arrows block his path!

[I am the master's spearman Quay! It will become a single bolt of lightning and pierce the enemy's heart!]

Kurrung!

Quay literally became a black thunderbolt, deflecting all the arrows and flying away.

Then, following Suho's order, he attacked the 'first seen', that is, the ice elf in the forefront.

"Aww...!"

[Did you get rid of it!]

But the confident Quay's wish didn't come true.

It was because Quay's momentum had run out at the last minute as he had already passed through a rough blizzard and numerous arrows.

Quay's arrow, which was trying to pierce the heart with a single blow, eventually pierced the opponent's side and stuck on the cold floor.

At that moment, Quay quickly looked around and judged whether the enemy was alive or dead.

[It's shallow!]

But it didn't matter.

Because Quay's attack was poisoned by Suho himself.

['Debuff: Kasaka's Poison' damages the opponent's muscles.]

[Muscle Strength -35]

Stagger!

In Quay's field of vision, the ice elf was overcome by the venom and collapsed.

At that moment, Quay was faced with a choice.

Are you going to return to your master?

Or will you completely finish off the wounded enemy and return proudly?

Of course it's the latter.

Wow!

In an instant, the bee's wings spread out from Quay's body, which had become an arrow and was stuck on the floor.

And in an instant, it changed to its original form and blended into this fierce blizzard storm.

bee himself

He was a natural assassin who secretly approached his prey and shot and killed it with a bee sting.

However, the Ice Elves were not easy either.

Even in the blizzard that obscured his vision, the Ice Elf opened his eyes wide, accurately capturing the sight of Quay, who was aiming for his life.

[It's too late.]

At that moment, Quay's spear pierced her heart.

"...a shadow soldier?"

tall.

Suddenly, a word came out of the prey's mouth and Quay's spear stopped instantly.

Nettles – Crack!

Then, he immediately took the spear out of the water, grabbed the opponent's neck with his other hand, and lifted it up.

[What did you say just now!]

"Kek kek...!"

The Ice Elf struggled, suffocated by that strong grip.

Despite the unexpected situation, Quay was not taken aback.

In the first place, Suho had two purposes for entering this dangerous place.

It was to find a clue about Itarim and Suho's mother.

In the current situation, it was rather welcome.

And soon, amazing words flowed from the ice elf's mouth.

"You, too... you know the Shadow Lord...!"

[...!]

At that moment, Quay's eyes narrowed.

Just in time, people were gathering from all directions through the blizzard.

Probably the companions of this ice elf.

There was no more time for leisurely conversation.

puck!

"...!"

At that moment, without hesitation, Quay struck the ice elf on the back of the neck, knocking him out.

Then, with a drooping ice elf wrapped around her waist, she soared into the sky and melted into a blizzard.

He just carries out orders.

He said he would leave all judgment and thoughts to the Master.

* * *

"...he said he knew the Shadow Lord."

Suho, who heard the whole story from Quay, first looked at the ice elf's condition.

Fortunately, he didn't die, but his complexion was pale because of the wounds from Quay and Kasaka's poison.

"I don't know what the situation is, but I'll try to keep it alive first."

Suho immediately ordered the shadow soldiers to find a nearby cave where they could escape the blizzard.

[Master I found. I will guide you right away.]

Quay returned first and guided Suho there.

Indeed, there was a small cave that appeared to be an ice kobold's nest.

As soon as I entered, the ice kobolds attacked, but after defeating them without difficulty, they settled down inside.

snap.

[Purchased 'Item: Bonfire Set'.]

A camping set containing the right amount of dry firewood and kindlings appeared in front of Suho.

I looked it up just in case, but the store that sells all sorts of things also sells these things.

[I will fan it. The little lord is resting.]

Verga quickly took care of the bonfire with a fan.

Roaring!

Surprisingly, with skillful workmanship, a warm fire was built in an instant.

Suho sat down in front of the bonfire and laid the fainting ice elf on his side.

[I purchased 'Item: Intermediate Healing Potion'.]

When Suho took out the healing potion, Quay said with a worried expression.

[Are you okay, Master? Ice elves are warlike beasts. You can attack the master as soon as you wake up.]

"Yes. That's why I'm going to eat only potions and leave poisoning behind."

[also! That's a good decision.]

Healing potions alone aren't detoxifying anyway.

As long as this Ice Elf was poisoned by Kasaka's poison, even if he woke up, he would be much weaker than usual.

[The King of Bugs, Lord of Plague, is satisfied with the poison, saying it is a convenient poison when capturing prisoners.]

Suho forcibly opened the Ice Elf's mouth and poured the potion into it.

"...cool cool!"

"If you want to live, swallow well."

The wounds of the Ice Elf who drank the potion while in a dream gradually healed.

And when you finally come back to your senses.

"..."

The ice elf opened his eyes and soon realized the situation he was in.

chuck.

The eerie tip of Quay's spear, made of black energy, touched her neck.

On either side of it, two giant shadowy Minotaurs surrounded it, emitting fearful energy.

[If you act foolishly, I'll kill you.]

Quay's bluff continued, but strangely, the ice elf didn't show any signs of embarrassment or fright.

Rather... he looked around with a pleased expression.

As if looking for someone.

"What are you looking for?"

surprise.

When Suho asked, the ice elf looked like a surprised rabbit and turned his gaze to Suho.

Then he stared at Suho's face with a strange expression.

"How can you speak our language?"

I don't know if it was because of his birth or because of the system, but Suho was able to communicate with the Witchbeast.

But now that wasn't the point.

The ice elf started pouring out words at Suho like a rapid-fire cannon, as if it had gone well.

"Anyway, that's fine. I am Sirka, the guardian of the Baruka tribe!"

"..."

"More than that, Sung Jin-woo, the shadow lord! What kind of relationship do you have with him, why are you with the Shadow Soldier?"

Suddenly, his father's name popped up, but Suho was more cautious than surprised.

[...For now, I can't feel the energy of Itarim.]

Suho calmly nodded at Ber's whisper.

Even so, there was a part of me that was cautious about answering questions about my father.

'I have to get the information out there first somehow.'

While Suho carefully chooses what to say.

Sirka, who had been staring at that expression intently and waiting for an answer, suddenly realized something and widened her eyes.

"...uh?"

"huh?"

"Wait a minute. Are you?"

"...?"

Suho made a puzzled expression at Sirka's unknown reaction.

Shirka kept examining her own face with an expression as if her eyes would pop out of nowhere.

"what? uh huh Do they really look alike?"

"Who do you think I resemble...?"

Suho asked again, thinking all 50,000 things in his mind.

'Are you my father's enemy? If I saw my father during the war, of course I resemble him...'

But his guess was completely wrong.

Now, Sirka, who had been sniffing even Suho's scent, suddenly pointed at Suho's face and shouted.

"that's right! Definitely look alike! You were the son of Chacha!"

"...cha-cha?"

Suho put on a puzzled expression for a moment.

However, the next moment, Suho's expression hardened when he heard Sirka's confident voice.

"Yes Cha Cha! Cha Hae-in!"

"...!"

[...!]

At that moment, not only Suho's eyes, but also Ber's eyes widened.

Seeing that reaction, Sirka burst into laughter with a bright smile.

"okay! That's right! I heard a lot about you from Chacha! The name must be... Sung Soo-ho! Suho! Right?"

"How do you know your mother?"

"I just want to know! I'm Cha Cha's friend! Chacha is the savior of us Ice Elves!"

Even Suho, who doesn't panic at all, couldn't keep his composure this time.

My mom's friend who popped out of nowhere was like that, and I just heard something strange.

"My mother... what about the ice elves?"

"Dragon Shaman Cha-Cha! Cha Hae-in is the savior of us Ice Elves."

"Dragon Maiden? What does this mean again..."

A strange nickname was attached to the mother who had been missing for five years.

[Wait a minute.]

In this chaotic situation, Ver suddenly realized something.

[Solord, I think I know at what point Cha Hae-in went missing.]

Ver remembered it clearly.

The point at which the shadow lord Seong Jin-woo and the shadow soldiers entered the foreign press war in earnest.

[...That day was the 16th wedding anniversary of the two of you.]

And at that time, the two of them were enjoying a date in the sky on the shadow flying dragon Kaisel.

And...

[He gave Cha Hae-in a special necklace made by bearded dwarfs with excellent dexterity.]

A special gift for the 16th wedding anniversary.

Seong Jin-woo put a beautiful necklace shining in the sunlight around his wife's neck.

At that moment, the shadow soldiers who were quietly cheering for their master's perfect wedding anniversary event in the shadows cheered.

Wow-!

And just before the lips of Seong Jin-woo and Cha Hae-in, who were getting closer and closer, collided.

[Your lord said that.]

-Honey, go back first. I'll follow right away.

Cha Hae-in, who received back the memories of the forgotten world with the power of Sung Jin-woo, knew the situation when he said this very well.

– Are you coming soon?

Seong Jin-woo silently nodded at those words.

He gave an order to the dragon Kaisel.

Send your precious wife Cha Hae-in home safely.

Kaisel, who turned to the ground like that, quickly moved away.

Seong Jin-woo, who was watching his wife's back, turned away.

And with the most ferocious eyes, I glared at the blue mist leaking out of the twisting and bending outer space.

[All powerful beings can attract terrible things from other worlds like a magnet.]

And the number of cracks in the dimension from which the blue mist flowed began to increase rapidly.

Hundreds of thousands? Maybe more.

[...that was the beginning of the foreign press war.]
