Chapter 47. The Witch of the Snowy Mountain (3)

5.

Aran.

There were so many legendary anecdotes about the hero of the polearm who sealed the black wizard.

Naturally, there were countless adventurers who wanted to challenge that legend.

Especially to warrior adventurers who held weapons in their hands, Aran, the hero of Polearm, was a god-like being.

“No one has ever reached the legend of Aran.”

But so far, no one has been crazy even about Aran’s toes.

It wasn’t simply because of some achievement like sealing the Black Wizard.

“Because no one has been able to reach Aran’s clue.”

The reason is that no one followed Aran.

It was literal.

“Because no one has been able to even remotely imitate Aran’s skills.”

In fact, in the case of other heroes, there were those who imitated the skills they used, if not exactly, then similarly.

It was the same in the case of Fried, who used all the magic, and there were a very small number of people who could use the light and dark magic that Luminous used.

The same goes for the skills possessed by the thief Phantom. Some, if not all, used them similarly, and Mercedes’ archer skills were still being passed down among the elves, even if they were not as useful as hers.

But Aran’s skills were different.

No one has ever recreated it.

“The skill she used was something she created herself, but she never had any disciples.”

That’s why.

“The only way left is to get your hands on the item she was using.”

The world was more crazy about Aran’s items than anything else.

“Look, boss.”

And now the item was in El Palm’s hands.

Because of that fact, everyone, including Devo, turned into ice statues, just like the witch of the snowy mountain.

It’s frozen.

“Excuse me, are these really Aran’s boots?”

Among them, Devo barely opened his mouth to speak, and El Palm nodded in response.

“But how do you know?”

Then Miner asked a question.

How did El Palm know about Aran’s boots, whose existence was not even certain, the moment he saw them?

“I heard the explanation.”

“Explanation? Who?”

“From the Phantom Thief.”

“ah!”

But everyone immediately understood the explanation that followed.

If it was none other than the phantom thief Phantom who told you, then nothing could be more accurate.

Of course, El Palm knew it even without that explanation, but there was no need to explain it to him.

What was more important now was not how I found out about this item.

“What skills are involved?

What kind of item could it be?

In fact, there was a possibility that the skill was not involved.

Surprisingly, such cases occurred frequently.

If you worked hard to obtain an item that was said to belong to a famous adventurer, it turns out to be an ordinary piece of equipment and not an item.

Of course, it wasn’t difficult to figure out that fact.

All you had to do was inject some magic power into it.

And the moment El Palm injected magic into the boots, they didn’t move at all.

“uh?”

Everyone’s expressions hardened at that sight.

If something doesn’t respond to magic, it just means it’s an ordinary object.

Because it meant that all the efforts made so far could be in vain.

Of course, it wasn’t really ordinary.

“I reject magic.”

“yes?”

“It’s literally true. It rejects my magic.”

Rather, it was the opposite.

“then?”

“It means that only the chosen ones can use it.”

That it is very special.

That fact brought a smile to everyone’s face.

“Then it’s true.”

It’s special, because there was nothing that could prove that these were Aran’s boots.

“Divo.”

“Yes, boss!”

El Palm said to Divo, who was excited about Aran’s boots.

“Try it!”

“yes?”

At those words, Debo tilted his head.

Then he quickly laughed.

“Even the boss knows how to joke.”

It wasn’t just Devo who thought that.

Everyone, including Kiri, Miner, and Ralph, thought El Palm was joking just now.

It was worth it.

Isn’t this Aran’s item?

Isn’t it impossible for a warrior like Divo to use an item that only special beings can use?

“You never know. Try it out.”

But El Palm kept asking, and Divo just laughed in vain.

“Hey, what do you not know? It would be wrong for anyone to see this. Are you just trying to embarrass me?”

“It could be possible.”

“How could that be? Unless the sky falls.”

“Then I’ll bet 100 million mesos.”

“yes?”

That was the moment.

“Divo, I’ll bet 10 million mesos that you can write it.

‘The atmosphere stiffened for a moment at El Palm’s words, but soon everyone laughed.

Still, they thought El Palm was joking.

“great.”

So Devo answered cheerfully.

“I’ll bet 10 million mesos that I can’t do it. These are Aran’s boots! There’s no way this can work, right? Huh? Right? You bet too.”

“I’ll bet 10 million mesos that it won’t work either.”

“Yeah, there’s no way. I’ll do it too, I’ll do it.”

Kiri and Miner also reacted cheerfully.

There was one exception.

“I won’t bet.”

Ralph, who loves money more than anyone else, lost the bet.

Everyone tilted their heads at that fact, but no one raised any major questions.

Because this was a joke anyway.

“great.”

Divo puts on Aran’s boots right away.

“Boss, even if it’s a joke, a bet is still a bet. There’s no need to complain later, right?”

Even at that moment, a smile was hanging on Devo’s lips.

Even at the moment you put on your boots and take your stance, even at the moment you are about to use your skill.

“Ah, the day has come when I get to eat the boss’s money.”

Divo, still smiling, quickly injected magic power.

That was the moment.

“uh?”

Divo felt something strange, and in the midst of that strangeness, Divo swung his polearm.

Kwakwakwa!

Then, a blue flash of light shot out from Devo’s polearm, and the flash pierced through the swirling snowstorm, creating a new snowstorm.

Everyone looked at Divo in amazement at his immense power.

“What is that?”

And Debo spoke with more surprise than anyone else.

“No, I don’t know.”

Of course, he was an exception.

El Palm knew that Divo could use Aran’s skills.

‘It was a smash swing.’

And the skill I just used is Smash Swing, one of Aran’s skills.

That was the end of it.

Now, there was nothing left for El Palm to find in this Mystic Gate.

“Take a rest for a day.”

There’s only one thing left.

“Go outside.”

6.

There was an unspoken rule among the adventurers and outlaws of the Elnas Mountains.

“I don’t mind killing each other in the Elnas Mountains. But if you’re going to do it, do it quietly.”

One of them was quietness.

“If you make a fuss, the whole place will turn into a mess.”

The Elnas Mountains were a harsh place even for monsters, and most of them were starving.

Is there a commotion in that place?

Do you smell blood?

Something that makes the monsters’ eyes roll back.

Of course, that doesn’t mean we can always fight quietly. Fighting is something that can’t be quiet.

Instead, I made at least a minimal effort.

In particular, adventurers were encouraged to refrain from clashing with each other as much as possible.

The more dangerous the place, the more tacitly we avoid conflict.

“Kill him!”

“Get those bastards out! Don’t just let them go!”

“Hahaha! We’re all going to die together, together!”

But now, in the cold plains, in the El Nath Mountains, the most dangerous place, it was filled with screams, shouts, evil curses, and bloody winds.

Of course, it wasn’t just adventurers and outlaws who were fighting.

Krrrr!

“f*cking Hector!”

Oh my!

“Here comes a herd of Yetis!”

Kkie!

“Damn it, even Pepe!”

The monsters of the Elnas Mountains gathered at the noise.

It was one big hell.

A hell without reason, where rules are respected by adventurers and outlaws over the years.

“As expected of Aran’s item.”

What paralyzed that reason was none other than Aran’s item.

The rumor spread.

There is a rumor that Aran’s item is in the 400-person Mystic Gate that appears in the cold plains.

There were also new rumors.

“It was the right thing to do to organize the El Palm party.”

El Palm Party, a party of adventurers who made their name in the Nihal Desert, are rumored to have come to the cold plains in search of Aran’s items.

And there was even a rumor that there was a huge bounty of 100 million mesos on El Palm’s head.

Of course, it would not have been possible for everyone to lose their minds just because a rumor had spread.

There was power.

The force that makes that rumor true.

“The wind is blowing.”

The man who was smiling while looking at this bloody wind was one of them, Joseph.

As one of Hote’s subordinates, he carried out Hote’s orders perfectly.

He was turning this cold plain into hell.

The number of adventurers who have died due to his tricks has already exceeded a hundred and reached thousands.

The scary thing was that, while Joseph was looking at that hell, his mouth was smiling, but his eyes weren’t smiling at all.

He wanted it.

“It’s still weak, though.”

More blood.

“Soon, the wind of blood will blow as much as you want.

Of course, there was no need to worry about that.

“Of course.”

The stage had already been set.

“Countless people will now rush to the Mystic Gate where Aran’s item is sleeping.”

Aran’s items, as well as El Palm and other skilled players, entered the prepared Mystic Gate.

That alone would make everyone flock here.

Moreover, this was a world of outlaws, and it was impossible to establish rules and conduct normal operations.

“They fight to get into the gate.”

Now the Lion King and his men, the knights who have become followers of the Black Wizard, will make it impossible.

“Even if you go in like that, there’s no way you’ll be able to properly attack.”

“Mr. Joseph.”

Of course, it wasn’t without its problems.

“What if the Mystic Gate is attacked?”

Everything Joseph said is only valid if the Mystic Gate is not attacked.

The moment the conquest was over, there was no reason for adventurers and outlaws to be out in the cold plains.

There is only one reason to run away as soon as possible.

But Joseph laughed at that question.

The laughter was proof that he knew.

“That can’t be. You can never catch what’s inside.”

Witch of the Snow Mountain!

That the boss monster inside that Mystic Gate is that terrifying monster.

And as long as the witch of the snowy mountain is there, there will absolutely be no one who can conquer the Mystic Gate.

“The same goes for those guys called El Palm Party.”

That’s why he thought he would never be able to conquer El Palmar Party either.

“I just don’t understand why you’re worried about that in the first place.”

Rather than trying to conquer it, Joseph couldn’t understand why those above him, including Hote, were even concerned about the El Palm party.

“Those guys who have no choice but to be unlucky.”

In his view, the El Palm Party was just a group of people who had achieved fame through luck.

“They are just guys who made their name in the Nihal Desert.”

This place in particular was incomparably harsh compared to the El Nass Mountains and the Nihal Desert.

Moreover, El Palm is from Victoria Island.

It was just laughable in many ways.

“I don’t know about others, but there’s no way El Palm Party will attack that place.”

That is why Joseph spoke with confidence.

“If that Mystic Gate is conquered by the El Palm Party, I might bite my tongue and commit suicide.”

The confidence was enormous.

“Lion King, in his name I swear… … .”

To the point where he was about to make an oath that he had to keep unconditionally the moment he uttered it, now that he had become a knight of the Lion King.

That was the moment.

“Hey, Mr. Joseph!”

The moment he was about to finish his oath, his subordinate came and shouted.

“The portal to the Mystic Gate has been activated!”

“… … What can I do? What does that mean? The portal has been activated? What the heck?”

Then a new subordinate shouted.

“Ah, it’s El Palm Party! El Palm Party has arrived!”
