A Transmigrator’s Privilege - Chapter 113
Chapter 113
✠
<What?>
It sounds like a joke, but there’s a serious reason for it.
“The spirits are very pure. If you touch their emotions, they easily go out of control.”
Kiriririri!
The royal scepter and the holy sword scratched sharply against each other. Mana and aura created sparks by repeating collisions and offsetting attacks.
<Ho-ho……well, it’s a valid plan. But can he do it well? Talking and taunting?>
“We’ll have to wait and see, right?”
Thesilid opened his mouth just in time.
“Emelania.”
I doubted my ears a little. This was because the voice containing the Queen’s name was as gentle as the spring breeze.
<Ah, Kai! Kai called my name!>
Emelania exclaimed with emotion as if she had forgotten that now they were fighting against each other.
“Yes, Emelania. I have something to tell you.”
<Yes, go ahead and say it! Let me hear your voice! Call my name! If possible, the nickname Lania!>
However, the ecstasy that spread across the Queen’s face faded in the next moment.
“I have another woman. Please break up with me now.”
<……>
After a brief pause.
WHOOOOOOAHHHH!
A terrifying air current blew around Emelania. The fierce snow wind pushed Thesilid’s body away as if tossing him out.
[<System> Warning. ‘Emelania’ gets angry and the phase is forcibly moved on!]
Agnes dejectedly murmured.
<This was one hell of a hit.>
Thesilid, who withdrew, turned to me and smiled as if to ask for praise.
“Eli, now it’s your turn.”
“Yes, good job.”
Swoop.
I covered my right eye with my free hand.
The appearance of the boss, which was only seen through the left eye containing the mirror shard, was a little different.
<Kyaaaaaagh! I can’t forgive you! I can’t forgive you!>
Another Emelania was attached to Emelania’s back like a Siamese twin. It had a body black as obsidian, a grotesque face, and howled like a specter.
“Can Agnes see it?”
<No. But I can feel it. What the hell is that?>
“It’s Emelania’s corrupted inner self. We have to get rid of that to subdue the Boss.”
The reason why I put a shard piece in my eye is to effectively crush that spiritual body.
<I can’t forgive you, Kai! You betrayed me! Aaaagh!>
The inner self struggled, unable to control her resentment and anger. But there was no attack.
What her mind wants to attack now is Thesilid.
However, due to the nature of the inner self clinging to the back of the physical body, she could not attack the opponent located behind her.
In other words, the inner self is now in a punching bag state, and Thesilid is safe from the attacks because he’s in front of Emelania’s physical body.
Chararara!
I unfolded my whip sword. It was time for an ‘all you can deal’ banquet.
<Kyaaaaaaagh! Kai! Kai! Why can’t I see you! Aaaagh!>
The whip sword flew like a whip and mercilessly broke the inner body here and there. But the inner self only called out for Thesilid even if she suffered from pain.
Sreung!
I felt sorry to fight so one-sidedly against an opponent, so I decided to send her away as quickly as possible.
I pulled out Europa with my left hand and attacked with two swords.
Meanwhile, Agnes, who was watching Thesilid, murmured admiringly.
<That guy is good at tanking.>
Emelania’s sight range was very wide, around 270 degrees. Therefore, if you deviate more than 90 degrees from the front, both the inner body and the physical body will attack you.
Thesilid was controlling the radius of movement to prevent an attack of the physical body from coming to me.
As evidence of that, a feast of 7th Circle Ice attack magic unfolded on the side where Thesilid was, with blizzards blowing and ice stalactites falling, but on the side where I was, it was very peaceful.
[‘The World-building God’ praises the great tank shuttle.]
(Note: for Korean slang, the shuttle is the person who is usually in charge of doing something every time. We all have that friend we always drag to play a game so we could get a prize or level up, that’s a Game shuttle. The same with data, there’s always that friend we ask to share cell phone data when ours are done for, that’s a Data shuttle.)
As a result, I trusted Thesilid and just dealt damage without thinking.
Thanks to Thesilid’s tanking and my extreme deal, the raid was over within 10 minutes of starting.
Pusseok!
<Kyaaaaaaaaaaa..…!>
<Ahhhhh! Nonsense!>
The Inner Queen was cut in half by Europa which was lifted high in the sky. Then the physical body leaned sideways, shedding black tears.
Pachang!
Her dark blue body broke apart into hundreds of millions of ice crystals just before it hit the floor. Countless crystals diffused the light that hit them and disturbed our field of view.
While sighing and lowering my sword, Thesilid came to the side.
“I can’t believe is over already. One of you is better than a 12-man raid squad.”
“Who are you comparing to what?”
“Oh, excuse me, that’s not what I mean. Anyway, thank you for the hard work.”
“Terry, you too…ouch.”
My left eye stung.
The mirror shards in my eye and the shards in Thesilid’s mouth were sucked up into the sky. They were woven into The Mirror of Ugliness floating under the ceiling. The finished mirror flashed and gave off an unpleasant light.
[<System> Congratulations! You have defeated ‘Emelania, the Fallen Snow Queen’, ranked 401st in the Demon World.]
<It’s over. Now, all that needs to be done is loot and leave…… Huh? What are you doing?>
Thesilid and I stood with our backs to each other, swords in hand. It was an obvious alert stance.
I said to Agnes, who was puzzled.
“It’s not over yet.”
<What?>
In the message to inform me that we subdued Emelania, there was something missing.
The line ‘Owner of the Dungeon’.
“The Snow Queen is not the Boss. The real Boss…”
Pat! Tak! Pababat!
Seven full-length mirrors were created near the high ceiling. Among them, a figure came out through the one in the center.
[<System> The owner of the dungeon, ‘Mirror Princess Anaxia’ ranked 353rd in the Demon World, has appeared.]
“…It’s the demon that corrupted the Queen.”
“Bingo!”
The voice I heard was that of a lively girl.
“Hello, humans? I am Princess Anaxia Pelhemstein. Thank you for bringing back my treasured mirror.”
A teenage girl wearing a Gothic lolita dress with purple hair tied in pigtails smiled.
Thesilid and I straightened our swords.
“This is the real beginning.”
“Yes.”
Starting from the 300th rank in the Demon World hierarchy, the difficulty rises sharply. I had to be on alert.
Right then, Anaxia raised both of her hands and pretended to be exaggeratedly surprised.
“Oh, don’t do that. I have no intention of fighting you guys right now.”
“What?”
“Since I found the mirror, I have no other regrets about this cold castle, and I am too busy to play with you guys. Therefore……”
Tak!
Anaxia snapped her fingers.
Kugwogwogwo!
A huge vibration came up through my ankles, it was an ominous shaking.
“No way……”
“Yes! This dungeon has just been closed.”
No, how can you make such a demolition in an instant?
It was a completely different flow from the original. Anaxia smiled at Thesilid and me who were taken aback.
“You both should know how lucky you are. Right now I have to go to the auction house in a hurry.”
“Auction house? You mean Marquis Gibrilte’s secret auction house?”
“Oh, my. You are a mere human being but, do you know the black auction house, silver-haired brother? That’s right. This time, I heard that real black and purple Spider Lily came in!”
“……You demons still like those flowers.”
“Hahaha, rather than liking it, we’re obsessed with it. Obsession is the virtue of the devil, isn’t it?”
A closing gate was created where Anaxia turned around.
The gaudy, deep-dark red gate indicates a path to the Demon World.
Anaxia put one of her legs in it and waved her hand.
“Then, goodbye. See you again next time if we have a chance!”
Surururu.
[<System> The owner of the dungeon, ‘Mirror Princess Anaxia’ ranked 353rd in the Demon World, has left.]
Thesilid and I couldn’t stop Anaxia, and since she closed the dungeon, neither of us had time.
Kugogogogung!
An ominous vibration reminded me of that fact again.
“Let’s hurry up, Terry.”
After searching through the wreckage of Emelania, I looted the spoils and opened the doorway of the boss room.
“Your Grace! Sir Thesilid!”
“To think that the subjugation has already ended……!”
The resting knights jumped up and greeted us. However, the hour was urgent.
“The dungeon was forcibly closed by the real owner of the dungeon! We have to get out of here!”
“What? Real owner? Closing……? What are you talking about, Your Grace?”
“The Ice Castle will soon collapse! More on that later! Run after me quickly!”
“……!”
Kugogogogung!
The vibration shook the ice castle once more as if urging everyone at the right time.
Whodududud. Parss.
Dust fell from the ceiling and cracks formed in the walls. Only then, everyone seemed to realize the situation.
“Al-All knights, attention! Run after Her Grace and escape the dungeon!”
“L-Let’s do the same as Her Grace! Run!”
“Ahh! The castle is collapsing!”
“Wait for us, Your Grace!”
“Follow Her Grace!”
Demonstrating superhuman strength, everyone went back the way we had come at incredibly high speed.
Kugoong! Wow! Kwagwagwang!
Everyone ran for dear life.
It was not simply the collapse of a building, but the collapse of the space, so getting caught up was the end.
Before I knew it, we passed through the grand hall on the first floor and came out to the courtyard. Looking back, the Ice Castle was collapsing like dust from the edge.
“I see an exit gate ahead!”
It was Clovis’ cry.
Just in time, a gate was created in the middle of the bridge across the moat. It was an exquisite stroke of luck.
I immediately practiced the right attitude of a religious person.
‘Thank you, World God! Amen, amen!’
[‘The World-building God’ is embarrassed because he didn’t do anything.]
I stopped by the gate and shouted at the knights following me.
“Hurry up everyone!”
“Aaaaaaa!”
“I will live!”
The knights jumped into the gate with all their energy. I counted the number of people who passed by the gate like a teacher in charge.
Fifty-seven people. There was one missing person.
