Arifureta Shokugyou de Sekai Saikyou (WN)

Young people who still had anomalies in their bodies were unable to stand properly, although they regained consciousness. Desert temperatures were also accompanied by considerable amounts of sweating, and there was a risk of dehydration, so I would invite them into the car to drink water.

The young man remembered his eyesight in a different way to the comfort in the car, although he was forced to convince him that the four wheels were like carriages. But I remember that I fell in the middle of the road without fulfilling my mission, and I get my mind back that it's not if I'm relaxing here. And I introduced myself to each other with the hajimes who helped me.

"First, thank you for your help. Thank you so much. I wish I was dead like that... I almost ended up in Ankaji. My name is Biz Forward Zengen. He is the son of Lord Randzi Forward Zengen, Lord of the Principality of Ankazi."

Surprisingly, he said the young man who named him Biz was a big shot. Ankazi is a stronghold for carrying the freshness of seafood transported from Elisen as little as possible, with its seafood output accounting for 80% of the northern continent. That means putting it in a single field of food supply on the North continent is tantamount to having almost exclusive authority. It is not just a nobleman in name alone, but one of the most trustworthy of the kingdoms of Heilich.

Biz also heard the qualities of Kaori ("those summoned from different worlds as messengers of God") and the ranks of the adventurers of Hajime and revealed his astonishment by peeling his eyes. And this is God's extraction! You sent a goddess for us! and suddenly began to pray to heaven. In this case, the goddess naturally refers to Kaori, but the person in question is Kyoton. Hajime, slightly intimidated, urged him to explain the situation, and Biz spoke as he coughed in a cold sweat.

Biz says, this seems to be the case.

Four days ago, people who developed unexplained high fever in Ankazi continued to fall. That was truly sudden, with nearly 3,000 out of a population of 270,000 on the first day alone falling unconscious and 20,000 complaining of symptoms, he said. Immediately, the medical hospital became saturated, and all public facilities were opened up, and medical personnel met with treatment and investigation of the cause. However, even if they managed to slow the progression as well as Kaori, they could not be completely cured.

While doing so, the number of patients increases one after the other. Nonetheless, some medical professionals began to appear to fall. In the midst of an overwhelming lack of magic users to slow the progression and confusion without any help, at last, the dead began to emerge from among those who were not treated. Despair can enter the fact that he dies only two days after the onset.

In the meantime, a pharmacist applied a "liquid appraisal" to drinking water from the ground up. As a result, it was found that the water contained toxins that encouraged the outburst of magic. Immediately an investigation team was formed and Ankazi's oasis was examined, assuming the worst, but the suggestion was that the oasis itself was contaminated.

Naturally, in a country in the middle of a desert like Ankaj, the security, maintenance and management of which are strictly strict, because the oasis is a lifeline. Normally, all measures have been taken to the point that it is no exaggeration to say that they are close to impossible, such as unprotecting Ankazi and pouring toxins into the oasis.

Where the hell did it come from, how did it come from, and who... was the investigation team that twisted my neck, but more importantly, I ran out of water I could use, except for a few minutes I've been stocking it for over two days. And in the end, it means that there is no help to save patients who have already been infected by drinking contaminated water.

It just doesn't mean there's no way at all. There is one way we can save our patients. That's how you need an ore called "Shizuku Shizuku". This "Shizuku stone" is a special ore that has the effect of quenching the activity of magic and can be harvested in small quantities in a rocky area all the way north of the desert or [Gruen Great Volcano]. Those engaged in magical research often seek to adjust their magic and prevent runoff. If you take this "Jing Yi Shi" powdered product, you will be able to calm the magic in your body.

But the northern rocky zone is too far away to take at least a month to get back and forth. In addition, the adventurers of Ankazi, especially those who can enter the labyrinth of [Gruen Volcano] and come back to collect the "Shizukuishi", have already fallen ill. A half-breed adventurer can't even break through a sandstorm surrounding [Gruen Volcano]. Besides, even assuming that was all there was, either way, a request for rescue to the Kingdom was needed more than an overwhelming lack of stocks of safe water.

Even if it is a request for rescue, it is not something that can be easily accommodated, such as transporting water that will only temporarily moisten the Duchy of Ankazi, which has a total population of 270,000, or going to the Great Labyrinth called [Gruen Volcano], and arranging for the powerful to come back. Even if the Principality says it cannot ignore the request, it is normal to try to investigate the current situation of Ankaji once the contents are solely the contents. But it's not too late after such a lengthy process.

Therefore, it was necessary for Lord Zengen, who could activate power, or his deputy Biz, to make a direct request for rescue.

"My father, mother and sister were also already infected and I managed to regain it by taking Shizukuishi, which was stocked in Ankaji, but it was also severely debilitating and very unlikely that I could make it to the kingdom or neighboring towns. That's why I left Ankazi with the convoy a day ago to call for rescue. At that time, there were no symptoms... but I guess she was infected. Perhaps there will be a personal difference by the time it develops. He seemed upset by the situation where his family collapsed, the country was in turmoil, and the rescue struggled for a moment... You should have taken Shizukuishi in full swing. Even while we're doing this now, the people of Ankazi are losing their lives... pity!

To a powerless body, Biz still beats his fist to his own knees with all-out force. The next lord of the Duchy of Ankaj seems to be a responsible folk-minded figure. Those who were escorting said they had been attacked and wiped out by Sandworm, so I guess that goes hand in hand with regret.

Surprisingly, the sandworms were probably hesitant to prey because they perceived the disease. I suffered from the disease but therefore exhausted myself, but was therefore not attacked by the sandworm, and as a result, I was able to meet the Hajime and the others. Life is something that you don't know what will happen.

"... I would like to formally ask you, no, to represent the Lord of the Principality of Ankazi. I need your help."

That said, Biz bowed his head deeply. There is a lot of silence in the car. The sound of the sand hitting the wind that hit the window sounded slightly louder. I guess Biz himself knows best that Lords surrogate shouldn't bow his head so easily, but he's desperate to miss the kind of survival that came down and gushed.

Everyone's gaze turns to Hajime. I guess that means leaving the decision to Hajime, except Yue and Tio, all of whom clearly included a willingness in their eyes to help. Especially since Kaori doesn't want to miss this as a "healer". A pleading glance is directed. Mu is more direct.

"Paper. Don't you dare?

I'm going to say that with a very innocent eye. Hajime seems to believe unconditionally that he can do anything. For Mu, Hajime, I guess, is undoubtedly a hero. Hajime shook her shoulder in a bitter laugh at such a mu and somewhere expected scented look.

Shea and Tio are laughing "hehe" at such a hajime. When Hajime sees Yue beside her, she is… as usual. Hajime can help you with everything you choose. Yue's feelings were clearly communicated without having to put it into words. Hajime softly stroked Yue's cheek, telling Biz he was willing to acknowledge it.

Originally, we were going to [Gruen Volcano], and at that time, Mu was thinking of leaving it with Ankazi. No matter how much, it's not reasonable to take a four-year-old to the Great Labyrinth. Therefore, after the Great Labyrinth attack, there was no problem at all in securing "Jing Yi Shi", and since Mu is a child of the subtribe, the etiology of magic runoff is not involved, so there is no danger. Either way, it was an issue I could handle on Hajime's journey.

"If Lord Hajime is in the Golden Class, I would like him to collect the" Shizune Stone "from the Great Volcano like this, but we also need to go to Wang Capital to secure the water. Can this mobile artifact be handled besides Lord Hajime?

"Well, I can handle anything but Kaori and Mu... but I don't need to go all the way to King's Capital. We'll be able to secure some water, so I'd like to head to Ankazi first?

"Can you do something about it? What's that supposed to mean?

Surprised by the word that we can secure water for hundreds of thousands of people, Biz. Naturally. But there is a way to get water without hauling anything. It's a way of collecting and creating moisture in the atmosphere with water magic.

Of course, it would be roughly impossible for a normal magician, but there are rare geniuses here regarding magic. Yes, it's Yue. Moreover, she also has many means to restore magic immediately. You should be able to earn enough time to take the Shizukuishi, which is left in Ankaji, and get fit, and go to the kingdom to make a rescue request again.

Scratching around and explaining, it was an incredible and windy biz at first, but either way, it was subtle as to whether I could reach the kingdom properly in my current state, so I also acknowledged that the persuasion of the "Apostle of God" Takawo combined turns back to Ankazi.

Surprised again by the four wheels running out at high speeds slipping through the desert zone, Biz heated his chest to the hope he had seen, even as he questioned why the "Apostle of God" fragrance was alone with the adventurers, why the seamen's toddlers called the human Hajime their daddy, why he was at ease with the Hajime, and why the brunette aged woman was scolded and had a disgusting grin.

As the red copper sand danced, Ankazi reached was a milky white capital surrounded by an outer wall beyond the neutral commercial city of Furen. Both exterior walls and buildings are house-lined milk colours, which contrast beautifully with the red copper colour of the exterior.

However, unlike Furen, the columns of light are climbing to heaven from every part of the outer wall surrounding the capital in an irregular fashion, joining other columns above to form a mighty dome covering the entire Ankazi. Occasionally, there was a strange and beautiful sight of something hitting or rippled, as if looking at the shaky surface of the water from underwater.

Apparently, this dome is preventing sand from entering. He said he would be hit by a massive sandstorm several times a month, but thanks to this dome, there would be no sand breaking into Ankazi just to look like cloudy weather.

Hajime and the others entered the capital again from the shining giant gate to Ankaji. It appears to be a magical barrier from the purpose of preventing sand entry to the gate. The gatekeeper, looking at the magic powered four wheels, was surprised, but there was no hegemony in the dark atmosphere as to whether Ankaji's current situation was affecting him, and he felt somewhere throwing. Most importantly, as soon as he realized that the next lord was sitting in the back seat of the four wheels, he became upright and regained his soldier-like hegemony.

Ankaj's entrance gate was on high ground. He seems concerned that those who visit here will be the first to have a glimpse of the beauty of Ankaji.

Indeed, Hajime and the others admired it as a beautiful city. There was a sparkling oasis on the east side reflecting the sun's light, and there were many trees growing around it that were very green. The water of the oasis flows into the whole town as a few rivers, and small boats dock all over the place, even though it is said to be in the middle of the desert. It is well known that lush squares are set up everywhere in town, with extensive use of vast tracts of land.

The north side looks like an agricultural zone. As Ankazi proves the story of abundant fruit production, it was found that Hajime grows a wide variety of fruits as far as "farsighted". On the west side, there was a large palace-like structure, which, unlike other milky white buildings, was pure white. It's the majesty and scale that draw a line with the rest, so I guess that's where the lord lives. Perhaps it is also an administrative district, as boneless buildings line the perimeter of that palace regularly along the compartment.

It's a desert country, but it makes me want to describe it as like a water capital... that's what the Duchy of Ankaj was about.

Usually, however, trading flourished because it was a relay with Elissen and because of the fruit trade, and because it was also a popular tourist destination, it should be a vibrant and bustling capital, but now it was covered in a dark and gloomy atmosphere. Very few people are out on the street and most of the stores don't seem to be open either. Such tranquillity dominated everyone's doorway as if they were squatting and waiting jiggedly for the storm to pass.

"... I also wanted to show the Apostle and Lord Hajime our vibrant country. I'm sorry, but right now, I don't have time. Let me guide the capital myself after everything has been resolved. First, come to your father. It's that palace."

One line nodded at Biz's words and proceeded with the oasis of cause on his back.

"Father!"

"Biz! What do you... No, wait, what's that!?

Hajime and the others, who entered the palace on Biz's face pass, were escorted straight to Lord Randzi's office. I heard the debilitation was severe, but apparently he used healing magic and healing pills a lot to get on with his errand with his guts.

Such a Randzi revealed surprise at the return of his son, who was supposed to have made his way to the King's Capital to make a rescue request a day earlier, while seeing the likeness of his son, peeled his eyes in exactly the same way that those working in the palace showed him during the period leading up to his coming here.

I can't help it. Anyway, now Biz is floating in the universe.

To be precise, they are being carried on a cross bit that floats in the universe with the feeling of falling into depression. Biz was also severely debilitated, and although he managed to regain consciousness with the magic of Kaori, he seemed a little reluctant to walk on his own. When the seemingly scented weave tried to lend her shoulder, Biz blushed and began staring at the scented weave with moistened eyes, saying, "Oh, the Apostle himself..." etc., so Hajime, when he forced the cross bit to pierce it, carried it as it was.

By the way, there's nothing like Hajime being jealous or anything like that. I wondered if so, Kaori blushed her cheeks and watched Hajime flicker, but simply didn't want to create a second or third glow or cypress mountain.

Biz makes the explanation of the situation quick, albeit with the subtle pity of clinging to the cross bit. The story proceeds to a ton of clapping, and when Kaori hangs healing magic on the viz, who took the powder of Shizukuishi brought to him by the butler, he seems to have healed to the extent that he has no obstacle to taking action without going to full speed.

It should be noted that even when it comes to full healing, the toxins that have melted into the body's moisture have not disappeared, but simply that static stones have prevented them from exercising their effects. I just have to see how things are going so far because it could drain over time more than it is blending into the moisture in my body.

"Then move. Kaori took Shea to the hospital and the facility where the patient is housed. Take the magic crystal stone too. We need to secure the water. Lord, is there at least two hundred meters of open space on all sides?

"Mm-hmm, how much would it cost to go to an agricultural zone..."

"Except Kaori and Shea, then, that way. Shea, bring it to Yue when the Demon Stone has accumulated."

Hajime gives instructions to members. What Hajime and the others do is easy. In the same way that Kaori did to Biz, "Using the Holy Spirit" to remove a little magic from the patients, "Ten Thousand Heavens" delays the progression of the disease and provides first aid. The removed magic is stocked in the Demonic Crystal Stone, and when it is saved, it is handed over to Yue as an addition to the magic that makes the water.

Hajime, after cooperating with Yue in building the reservoir, heads straight to the oasis to investigate the cause. If you know what I mean, you can solve it, and if you don't, head straight to [Gruen Volcano]. That's the plan.

Everyone nodded vigorously at Hajime's decree.

Currently, Lords Randzi and a large number of escorts and entourages, as well as Hajime, Yue, Tio and Mu, had come to the tip of the agricultural zone in northern Ankazi. Instead of two hundred meters on all sides, three times that is likely to be flat. Usually, it seems to be a place where they grow certain crops, but from the seasonal ones, they are now fallow lands.

Still, the half-hearted Randzi was staring at Hajime and the others with the gaze that if he knew he had plotted this emergency, he would immediately put him to death. I entrusted the securing of a lifeline called water with the thought of grasping straw as well, but since it is a common sense and impossible story, I can't help but look at Randzi.

Most importantly, the eye that conceived the suspicion was stained with amazement at the moment Yue exercised his magic.

"Destroyed."

A black swirling sphere appears at the tip of the right hand, which is placed straight overhead on the agricultural land in front of it. Its sphere was reshaped and stretched thinly and squarely over agricultural land, finally becoming a thin membrane of two hundred metres square. Then, after a moment of stagnation, he fell to the ground without making a sound, crushing the earth as if nothing had happened as it were.

The earth is immensely submerged by tremendous pressure. The ground echoes. That sounds like a scream raised by the earth. In an instant, the ultra-gravity hung agricultural land became a huge reservoir two hundred meters square and five meters deep.

When Hajime looked at Chirali and Randzi and the others, everyone, including the accompanying people, opened their mouths so much that they were worried that their jaws wouldn't come off, and their eyes just popped out. It seems to be too shocking and voiceless, but everyone says inside, "What no!? It is obvious that he is shouting."

Yue, who unleashed the divine magic at about half the output, exhales "Phew". Not so much magic exhaustion, but it was no different to consuming large quantities at once, and I felt slightly tired. I can take out the magic I have stocked from the Demon Crystal Stone, as I did during the war in Ur, but after this I want to preserve as much Demon Crystal Stone magic as I can, given that I challenge [Gruen Great Volcano]. Also, Hajime performs another method of magic replenishment because there is a different amount of time than during the war.

It was Yue who would let his body fall behind him with Flali, but he would not show his tricks while trying to support his body. Because it's what I did, and I know I don't have to do that to fall. And it came to pass, and the sound of Posun, that Yue's body subsided in Hajime's arms.

Hajime, hugging Yue just a little bit from behind, held him up as he was, now from the front. Yue, too, happily loosens her cheek and hugs her back as she turns her arm around Hajime's neck.

And

"I'll have..."

I bit Hajime's neck as it was.

Kapu! Chu ~,

Blood runs out of Hajime's body. Yue crawled her tongue on Hajime's neck over and over again, moisturizing her eyes inadvertently. From time to time, it has been Yue who, contrary to its appearance, is somewhere colourful, but when he sucks blood from the hazy, it becomes more pronounced. So much so that even pheromones may be releasing from the entire body, it becomes a luscious atmosphere.

Mmmm, pizza, pizza, pizza, pizza.

The men around them fronted, forgetting even their doubts about the decadence and the Yue race, which they would normally feel if they breathed blood, at the figure of a beautiful girl crawling her tongue into the scabbard muscles with a small gasping voice and a slutty noise. Only the lord recovers from stunning what should be called a boulder and sees the Hajimes with a sharp eye. I guess I think a lot in my head. I feel a little rough on my nose and my eyes are running bloody, but I must be seriously considering it.

By the way, Tio had unfortunately demonstrated that perversion as well, but was there a distinction that it was too early to show Mu on the boulder, excitedly but firmly blindfolded from behind. Mu complained firmly, "I can't see it," but he was hugged from behind, and couldn't seem to resist because he was completely stuck from the back of his head in boobs beyond Shea.

Yue, who received blood from Hajime and converted it into magic by "blood force conversion," gently, when he released his body from Hajime's neck muscle, licked his tongue once, this time kissing Hajime's lips. To Hajime and Yue staring at each other with feverish eyes, gohon! and the cough arrives. Lord Randzi and his foreboding servants. Hajime and Yue laughed bitterly that they had... changed their direction and kissed again.

"No, no, no, no, I don't mean to do it like you can't see it if you do it... there's all kinds of things about what that is and what it means to suck blood, but it means you can't dare do what you have to do now... you know what I mean!?

Hajime and Yue, who flaunted their shoulders that they had no choice but to scratch the lord, got the Randzi and the others upset by the trick to work on their asses.

When Hajime descends into the reservoir, he removes the four wheels from the "treasure trove" and runs out. It removes minerals from the earth with a "mineral separation" function on four wheels, and metal coats the surface of the reservoir to prevent water from being absorbed. And when he returned after finishing the coating, Yue now stuck his arm out and exercised water-based magic in the impromptu reservoir.

"Void Wave."

It's one of the advanced water-based magics that creates big waves and hits opponents. In ordinary magicians, even when it comes to big waves, there is at best a tsunami of ten to twenty meters square, but when Yue exercises it, the digits change. A tsunami with a width of one hundred and fifty meters and a height of one hundred meters broke out into the void and poured into the reservoir at once. The total amount of water stored in this reservoir is about 200,000 tonnes. Along the way, he sucked blood from Hajime several times, replenished his magic and accumulated about half of it. But Hajime's blood volume is also limited.

Shea jumped into the scene around being anemic if she sucked any more blood from boulders. In my hand, I have a demonic crystal stone deposited from Kaori. A small amount of magic drained from thousands of patients. A significant amount is stored. It hasn't been two hours since Kaori was entertained at the hospital or facility. In that short time, in terms of the treatment applied to that many humans, indeed, Kaori is also cheesy enough.

At the same time that Shea returns to help Kaori, Yue resumes a series of "virtual waves". So much less, the two hundred meter square reservoir was filled with uncontaminated fresh water.

"... something like this..."

Randzi stared at the pond as glowing as the oasis by reflecting the sun's light in front of her eyes, stunned by the impossible. There doesn't seem to be a word.

"Unfortunately, this will keep you for the time being. All you have to do is look into the oasis… if you don't know anything, you can request rescue for the water in the time you've earned"

"Ah, oh. No, I have a lot to ask... thanks. I sincerely appreciate it. Now you don't have to dry up my people. I'll show you where the oasis is."

Randzi still seems to be unable to recover from the shock, but still seems to be able to say what needs to be done, and he thanked him in good faith for changing his attitude towards the Hajime and the others with gallery.

Hajime and the others move straight to the oasis.

The oasis, as always, reflected sparkle and light beautifully and did not appear to contain very much toxin.

But...

"... hmm?

"... Hajime?

Hajime stares at a point of the oasis with a frown. Yue leaned her neck against Hajime and showed her questionable face when she noticed a change in her condition.

"No, something, like there was a reaction to the Demon Eye Stone right now... lord. How well did you find out about the investigation team?

"... Indeed, the dossier appears to have conducted water quality surveys and groundwater surveys of the oasis and the rivers flowing from it, the wells in various locations. As my son told me about the quality of the water, the groundwater veins were not particularly abnormal. Most importantly, I've been checked for dozens of meters from this oasis. I haven't gotten around to the bottom of the oasis yet."

"Is there any artifact sinking at the bottom of the oasis as well?

"? No. A certain artifact is used to guard and manage the oasis, but it is installed on the ground… it is an artifact of the junctional system, contaminating the entire oasis, etc. As a matter of fact, I've never had an oasis contaminated before."

Randzi's artifact is called "genuine cutting," in fact, the dome of light that protects this Ankazi. It is a convenient barrier that inhibits sand intrusion and allows air, moisture and other necessary things to pass through, but it is up to the setter to decide what to pass through. And there is not only a simple barrier function, but also a detection function, which allows you to set what to detect. Its detection settings are versatile and can detect whether dark magic is incorporated or psychoactive.

In other words, if you set it as "something malicious towards the oasis," the "genuine cutting" reacts and passes it on to Randzi, who is the settlor. Of course, the lord only knows what the actual setting is. Incidentally, at present there is a lot of movement in and out of people due to investigations, etc., and security has already been decontaminated leaving a minimum.

"... heh. Then I wonder what that is."

The way the principality of Ankazi proud oasis is tainted and his fist clenched with remorse is, I see, just like Biz's father. With such a Randzi on his ass, Hajime laughed, distorting his mouth. Hajime's Demon Eye Stone was definitely visible at the bottom near the center of the oasis.

The Randzis get upset when they say there's something that can't be. When Hajime arrived just outside the Oasis, he removed a metal mass shaped like a 500-millimeter pet bottle from the "treasure trove" and infused it with direct magic. And he threw it into the oasis unconstitutionally.

Hajime lines up next to Yue, away from Stasta and Oasis. Everyone turns to questions, but Hajime answers nothing. And then he tried to ask what Randzi did to Hajime, who cut his snooze, at that moment,

Dogoooooo!!!

Huge water columns erupted in the middle of the oasis with a tremendous explosion sound. Randzi and the others whose jaws fall cum again and peel their eyes off.

"Shit, if I surprise you, it's creepy...... no, are you defensive?

Hajime says that, and now he takes out about ten identical ones and throws them into Poipois and Oasis. And after a few seconds or so, a huge explosion and a huge water column erupted all over the oasis.

Hajime threw in what is called a torpedo. Earlier, because one of the seven major labyrinths [Merzine Seabed Ruins] that will be headed via Elisen is at the bottom of the ocean (Milady Info), I made some prototypes that say it would be a torpedo when it comes to weapons for the ocean. Because of this, I tried to throw in an experiment to try it. As a result, we found that the power was considerable, but not enough traceability and speed. It needs to be improved.

Incidentally, this torpedo, "Specific Sensing" and "Tracking" are created by incorporating magically added ore. Once the enemy is locked on, it is then self-swimmed and chased, exploding through contact. This means that something in the water is currently being chased around by admirably unknown weapons.

"Whoa, whoa! Lord Hajime! What the hell did you do! Oh! The pier's blown up! Fish pieces! The oasis is dyeing red!

"Shit, don't you get caught yet? All right, fifty more to go..."

Randzi screams as the landscape of the oasis gradually changes in a tragic way, but Hajime mutters disturbing things without mind and tries to move on. Randzi cling to Hajime with his men, desperately trying to stop him.

From the perspective of Randzi, who doesn't know what's in Hajime's demonic eye, suddenly Hajime is bombarded with unidentified objects thrown in, piers in the oasis and other equipment and living freshwater fish. From the reaction of the junction, in an unexplained situation where Hajime is carrying out his sabotage activities without malice, Randzi, the boulder, cannot hide his confusion either. Anyway, I'm desperate to protect the oasis.

Hajime tried to move on by shaking off the persevering Randzis depressingly. but shortly thereafter,

Shuba!

Countless waters became tentacles with the momentum to tear the wind apart and hit Hajime and the others. Dauntingly, Hajime intercepts with Donner Shrark and flies the tentacles of the water. Yue freezes and Tio evaporates instantly with flames to prevent it.

Something and the stunned sight of Randzi and the others who saw the Oasis jumped into their eyes several times today. When he wondered if the water had suddenly risen to reveal his anger at the repeated bombings of Hajime, he rose as it stood against gravity, becoming a mountain nearly ten meters high.

"What... this..."

Randzi's stunning twinkle sounded slightly clearer.
