There were already footprints and wagon wheels in the white snow, but they were about to disappear by the snow.
Of course, people move that much again.
Even now, there were other groups of adventurers out there besides us. There were wagons that were trying to leave too hard before the greater snowfall.
"Copson, find a way. You got any good points?"
"Leave it to me."
We set Copson in the lead and entered Sulphuric Acid.
There was no stumbling block in his walk, so his faith went well. Copson wasn't originally a trusted friend. We moved as we talked about this.
"Wow, it's cold. But what did they all live for?"
Mary, who was walking, asked as she fixed her fur hat.
"I've been living hard, living hard. Just making money, exercising. And I learned to knit. I'm fucking thinking about it, man."
"I've been drinking and gambling."
"That's the opposite answer."
I was walking up the snowy hillside, but I wasn't very strong. I also had better health. My muscles and my manna make me feel strong for three days.
"Maria, have you made any progress in shielding?"
"It's more convenient to use a shield than a knife these days."
"That's fucking scary."
A common sense but a shield is also a great weapon.
If you hit your face with something like that, even a dizzy businessman will hang up a three-two thousand way ticket. Turning around, I remembered that when I caught the socialites, Maria chewed one of the cubs with a shield.
As I was chatting, I started to get fever as I climbed the mountain.
I took off the hood hat I was wearing.
"Hey, Sipal. So, the holy water we received last time, right?"
"Holy water? It's still valuable to me. Hmph, it's a good amulet. I can feel the holy power protecting me."
I think I heard that there's a shelf life.
"It was from the church. I drank it last time."
"Drink?"
I was surprised.
"Yeah. I was tired and I didn't have the energy, but I felt like I was getting stronger after drinking. Since then, you've been overpowered, and things have been good."
"Uh... yeah."
"Hmm. Is it working? I think I'd better have a drink."
Meria seemed to be fascinated by the placebo effect.
I heard from Elise that the holy water has no effect on healing people.
I thought I didn't have to tell you the truth. I moderately adapted the story and used Holy Water to kill the cursed monsters and bring them back to life.
Unlike the two who didn't use it properly, I chewed the Kobolt Queen and won.
"Bavarian. Did that happen? Then I'd better keep it, too."
"No, I think I said there was a shelf life. Didn't all the sacred energy already fly away?"
"I can't do that! Why do you say such a terrible thing, Barbarian!"
Copson hurriedly took the holy water out of his arms, but in that luxurious glass bottle, he could not even feel the slice of holy energy.
No wonder I'm not a religious man.
"Maria. Do you feel anything?"
"No?"
"No way! Can't you feel this sacred energy!"
Seizures are the result.
"Hey, hey. I feel like you're the only one. Priest at this time."
"I can't do that!"
"Don't drink like I do. That's too bad."
Copson put it into the arms of the Holy Water, who was now a beast, in an apparently disappointing color. I was able to learn the lesson that the bad guys shouldn't do anything.
I would rather feel better with the placebo effect if I drank it like Maria. In the end, the Holy Water only caused him sad feelings.
"I didn't want to know the truth."
"Truth is always written."
Cook laughed as Meria teased him.
"Cluckle. There's nothing I haven't used in the world."
I also knocked on his shoulder, laughing.
Anyway, I kept moving.
When I went into the mountains I wanted to measure the popularity that felt like a busan, it faded more and more, and I finally entered a clean area with no human footprints.
It was a lush forest in the first place, and it had a lot of snow and narrowed its field of view. I couldn't find anything popular. And monsters are a way to nest in these places.
"Phew. It's been a long walk, so I have a fever."
Mary, who was walking, took off her fur hat and said,
It's time to rest now that we've been walking for about three hours.
"No heavy shields?"
"It's okay to get used to it."
Sitting in a place where you can avoid the snow adequately, with bark and firecrackers. Then I used the oil I brought and the burner to set the fire.
I took a break while warming up my jerky and toast.
"Copson. What can you find nearby? I don't think I see it in my eyes."
"It's not that snowy yet, so you'll find it. Leave it to me."
"This son of a bitch is trustworthy."
"I will."
I feel like my body temperature has risen because I am currently on the mountain, but from the moment my sweat cools, my body temperature drops rapidly. We swallowed hot food and unwrapped ourselves in the heat.
"Let's go."
"Draw."
"All right, let's get real."
With the knife drawn, Copson stumbles in and out. There are more monsters in the mountains than I thought. There will also be so many places where they nest.
Maybe it moved for about an hour.
"Look over there, Barbarian."
I saw a clay cave in secret when I saw where Copson was pointing.
It looks small because it has a stack of eyes, but if you remove it roughly, it looks like it's enough to bend your back and enter.
"What kind of oyster is that? Goblin oysters?"
"I think so... Let's search it. Maybe there's something useful."
Copson took the lantern out of his backpack and tried to light it.
"Hey, it's been a long time."
"I'm trying to help."
"Is that when you went to the dungeon?"
"That's it, Miss Maria."
- Tuck.
I'm trying to light a flint, but it doesn't look good.
I surrounded him with Meria and blocked the wind. After a while, the lights went on. You can go in now.
"I'll go in first."
Meria smiles in front of the shield.
"That's a good one."
"Tanker, too."
We slowly followed Meria into the lowered position.
Compared to the narrow entrance, the inner ceiling was high enough to move comfortably. Copson hits the lantern, and the inside starts to look clear.
- Slightly.
We, who killed our breath, looked at the oysters as we went straight under the sky.
It was not a very complex structure, nor was it long.
Shortly after, I was able to spot the targets.
"... Goblins."
Meria whispered.
This was the Goblins' den. There were tons of dry reeds and bushes everywhere, and the Goblins were sleeping in the winter.
These bastards...
Who's going to punish you for this? How dare you travel to Dream Country and fall asleep?
Suddenly, murder and anger began to soar as I felt inhuman.
This is the curse of winter.
Winter snatches leisure from the heart of man, and makes it cruel. Humans are creatures so designed in the first place. As such, winter is a cruel season. A harsh season you can't survive unless you take it away...!
It seemed that Copson and Meria felt the same way.
The sanctuary of the happy Goblins was instantly filled with the irrational wrath of three people. It was hard to be mistaken that this was a regular gathering place for serial killers because of the moments of overwhelming weight.
- Kee...
A Goblin flinches his body.
Maybe I felt a warmth from the orange light of Lantern.
- Tuck.
As a signal to Copson to put Lantern on the floor,
- Gross.
Without a knife, we grabbed the bristles of the Goblins who were comfortably asleep in a comfortable space, like spam caps.
It was an extremely idyllic and rapid task.
- Phew.
Goblin, who was asleep, tried to resist as if he had just regained consciousness when his thighs were cut in half, but he couldn't do anything because his neck was already cut off.
It was the moment when winter sleep turned into a precipice.
It's not too late to search the cave after killing all the Goblins anyway.
Goblins who noticed the commotion tried to get up one by one, but by responding immediately, they were able to commit the massacre without any problems.
Soon after, a sea of blood was created.
The Goblins, who seemed a little less than twenty-two, were exterminated.
"Poor kid. You want me to save him?"
Mary, who put a knife in the last Saint Goblin's prestige, looked at the young Goblins with pity.
"Wouldn't it be better to just kill him? We should go together when we go. If their families survive in the dead yard, they'll be sad too."
I don't think I need to spend the winter eating the bodies of my parents here anyway.
You're a good adult, you loser who ate your mother.
"Bavarian. Think about it. Aren't those bastards going to feed us in the future anyway? They have to be big enough to make adventurers work."
"Can you see this evil bastard?"
I thought so and felt that it was just to save my babies.
If you take it anyway, it will freeze in the middle, so you can't even take it to the Arena.
Then let us be merciful.
"Yeah, well. Let's save the baby."
"Aw, poor thing."
Mary was also a thorough foreigner when she saw such a talk about the subject of the massacre of the Goblin family.
Well, it's true that he looks pitiful, so I can't help it.
It wasn't a gross goblin, but I felt like it was a little sprouting without compassion when I saw a plumpy cub.
The whimpers put the pups in the corner and explored the Goblins' den.
"Maria. Anything?"
"Hold on. I'm looking."
I saw a lot of things like nuts wrapped in hard shells, whether they were collected for winter food or not. It's like a squirrel.
I took everything because it was edible.
If you sell this to a grocery store, it'll be money.
"Oh. There's a dagger, yes."
"What's the status?"
"You look fine. I'm expecting about 30 coopers."
"Tsk."
After all, I couldn't find anything worth the money.
We need to catch the Goblins in our time. I threw away the clubs that seemed useless and just took what I needed and went outside.
Trying to be blatantly disappointed, Copson said.
"Hahaha, I think good things are going to happen because I've done good things."
It would be a good thing to slaughter the sleeping Goblins, but I strongly thought that the world would be wrong if it was judged to be a real good deed and a good deed was made with God's reward.
"Well, let's find another place. I think it would be nice to find Aulbear after doing this."
"What Aulbear... Maria. Does Aulbear make any sense?"
"Do you think it would be okay to raid what you're sleeping with?"
"Oh, shit."
Crazy people.
Anyway, he led two fools who thought foolishly and stuffed them with sulphur. Then, my eyes became weaker and weaker, and I finally stopped.
Copson was delighted that this implied something good for the future.
As it proves, it was not long before I could find more dens of monsters. Immediately, we turned into butchers, soaking our blood with swords and taking all the useful things.
"Well, it's hard to expect a big profit if you keep facing this."
Certainly the work is smooth, but it feels like there is not much money to make. That's why they're after Aulbear.
It is not easy to earn money by working diligently.
"Why? I think that's okay."
Meria seemed satisfied.
"It's not okay. If we do this by nightfall, we'll have 50 coupons a day."
"That's enough."
Is that enough?
"Let's speed things up. If you kill all the monsters nearby, you can expect some income."
"Let's do it."
Hunting monsters is an adventurer's routine. What else could it be?
I followed Copson down to the bottom of the mountain and found a place to nest.
It was then that I became acquainted with a group of stranger adventurers.
