10.
The appearance of the giant wolf, the white wolf.
When everyone except Ulan was frozen, a voice suddenly broke the silence.
“ah! “That’s the kid I saw last time.”
It was none other than Delia.
Ibella asked back with a surprised face at the words that sounded as if she had met a white wolf before.
“You saw it? when?”
“During the Abyss Cultist attack and incident, I received help from that child.”
As Delia, who remembered that time, was explaining the whole story, Ian and Laurea paid attention to the light emanating from the white tiger’s body.
Because emitting light even in the darkness of the abyss meant one of two things.
“It’s true that your body shines… … .”
“Are you saying it’s a spirit or spirit?”
“Yes, it is a spirit creature.”
Ulan nodded.
Because there was no reason to hide it. Then she brought up the story of the time she met the white wolf.
Everything from the moment they met by chance in a crypt in the eastern forest, to the moment they pulled out the ax stuck in his body, to the fact that they became together.
The group listened to Ulan’s words as if they were curious.
However, on the other hand, there were some who did not listen to the story. To be honest, I was so shocked that I couldn’t even hear the story.
‘Hey, that’s it!’
Noah’s eyes turned big.
She looked at the white wolf with a startled face and immediately screamed inwardly.
‘Isn’t it the white tiger of the tail?!’
Exactly the same appearance as seen in the original.
Of course, it was a little bigger than the original, but that was Mimu’s white tiger. The proof is that the fog that sparkles like light has turned into a wolf.
‘Huh, why is the white tiger here?!’
That wasn’t the only question.
While Mimu’s white wolf was a powerful magical beast, the white wolf that was now wagging its tail in front of Ulan was clearly a spirit creature itself.
‘Besides, I don’t understand why you followed Ulan at all.’
At first glance, it seemed like he had received help from Ulan, but it was not persuasive to say that he followed just that.
This is because spirit creatures and spirits do not serve humans as their masters without a special reason.
Then.
‘huh?’
Suddenly, something caught my eye.
A sight where the light emitted by the white tiger removes all the darkness around it. At the same time, there is even a tattoo engraved on Ulan’s back.
It was Kazan, the imprint of a hero.
‘ah! if… … .’
It might be because of that.
According to records, Mimu’s White Wolf is one of Kazan Rudrik’s three major descendants.
‘So, isn’t it possible that you were drawn to the power of each seal and followed Ulan?’
This is the most likely guess.
Noah nodded silently.
As I was finishing my thoughts, Ulan’s story finally came to an end.
“… … “That’s how it happened.”
The story of meeting a white wolf.
After the in-depth explanation was over, Laurea tilted her head with a curious expression.
“So you’re saying you don’t know the exact reason the wolf is chasing you?”
“that’s right. I do not know.”
“Master and servant, didn’t you even sign a contract?”
“okay.”
Ulan nods his head repeatedly.
The group reacted in confusion.
It was worth it.
Based on Ulan’s story alone, there was no reason for the white wolf to follow him around.
So, at a time when everyone was wondering.
Slurp!
The white wolf stood up.
After a while, the guy who came next to me suddenly stuck his big head out. Then, out of nowhere, he started pushing Ulan’s body away.
“hmm? “What happened all of a sudden?”
Ulan asked curiously.
But there was no way to get an answer.
At that time, Ibella and Delia, who were watching this, came up with a plausible guess.
“It seems like there’s a place you want to go?”
“Isn’t it possible that you can guide me to where the magic circle is?”
It was a reasonable guess.
If you are pushed by the white wolf and move like this, you will end up heading to Area 3.
And right after the two finished speaking.
[Green, green!]

The white wolf nodded.
As if the two girls’ guesses were correct.
Then there was nothing to worry about.
“great. Let’s move again.”
Laurea grinned.
As if he was happy to have a reliable guide.
And the moment I tried to accelerate my steps.
“… … Laurea.”
“yes? why?”
“Don’t trick me, don’t manipulate me, let go.”
Ibella and Delia’s eyes narrowed.
Thanks to the white wolf, the darkness of the abyss was lifted, and there was no longer a need to rely on Laurea’s projection.
Also, the reason for her to be in the lead has disappeared.
In other words, there is no longer any justification for joining hands with Ulan.
Laurea let go of Ulan’s hand with an expression that showed she had been caught by the two’s comments.
“Tch!”
It was with an expression of regret.
Still, it was true that movement was much faster thanks to the white wolf. As long as the field of view was secured, there was nothing to block the group’s path.
Some time after that.
The group entered the third area in an instant and walked around busily. Eventually, we reached the end of our destination.
Suddenly, Ybella frowned.
“Wait a minute, doesn’t it smell a little strange?”
“huh? “You mean the smell?”
“What can I say, it’s an earthy smell similar to that from an old pond or swamp… … .”
She continues to sniffle.
Soon Ulan twitched his eyebrows. This is because the smell is almost similar to what Ibella said.
“After hearing it, it seems like I’m flying.”
“Iknow, right. “What does this smell like?”
“It smells like dirt, and it also feels a bit fishy.”
As time passed, the other party members also noticed the presence of the smell one by one. The moment everyone guessed the identity of the smell.
Stop!
The white wolf suddenly stopped in place.
Then, the guy lowered his posture and glared straight ahead, revealing his ferocious teeth.
[Crrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!]
A white tiger growling threateningly.
It is a reaction as if there is something in front of you.
just as expected?
After a short period of time, multiple signs were felt from where the white wolf’s gaze was directed.
At the same time, the smell became more intense.
The group crumpled their faces.
“Ugh! This… … .”
“It’s almost like a bad smell?”
And that moment.
The cause of the foul odor was revealed.
puck! Clap!
An object that appeared giving off a foul odor.
It was a moving lump of mud. At first glance, it looked like a monster, so the group grabbed the weapon without any hesitation.
“Ugh! “What is that again?”
“… … “I feel bad, I look bad.”
“On the outside, it looks like a mud monster.”
“But the fact that it appears in a place like this probably means it’s a monster from the abyss.”
A time when each person exchanged a word with each other.
Ulan silently blinked his eyes. As if he had figured out what the monster was.
“Are you a member of the swamp?”
“He is a member of the swamp.”
Noah also added his words.
After that, the two looked around at the same time, without even thinking about who would go first. After a while, Noah was the first to breathe a sigh of relief.
“Luckily, there seems to be no swamp ruler.”
“Well, it looks like it.”
Ruler of the swamp.
It is one of the Lords of the Abyss, a monster that rules over the swamp clans, and is the largest monster of all the Lords.
So I was able to find out whether it was there or not just by looking around.
‘but… … .’
There is one thing that bothers me.
In a split second, I felt a wave of power comparable to that of the Frost Demon Dragon. In other words, the Lord of the Abyss may have appeared like last time.
‘We must not let down our guard.’
Ulan’s expression hardened.
Although the ruler of the swamp was nowhere to be seen, that doesn’t mean other rulers won’t appear.
It was a time when my senses were so heightened.
“hey. “Can you explain it to us instead of just talking between you two?”
Laurea spoke up.
However, she was the only one who asked for an explanation.
“Well, the explanation is good, though.”
“It looks like I don’t have time to listen to the story.”
Before I knew it, the swamp’s relatives had surrounded me.
The distance got closer and closer.
In response, Ibella prepared to attack. If anything happens, I’m ready to rush in.
But I couldn’t.
“Ibella! “Step back!”
“huh? Why all of a sudden?”
This is because Noah delivered a warning cry.
Ibella reflexively bit herself and looked at Noah as if asking the reason. Then the answer came from Ulan.
“Weapons made from minerals do not work against the swamp clans.”
“… … what?”
Ibella asks with an absurd expression.
It’s an expression that I don’t understand at all.
After all, it would be quicker to show than to tell. After making his decision, Ulan quickly narrowed down his area.
An ax comes flying in right away.
Whoa! puck!
In the blink of an eye, the swamp’s body was split into two.
However, Ulan was not satisfied with just that. It was only after pulverizing all the remaining debris like a shredder that it finally retreated.
Looks completely powdered.
Ian muttered with a nervous face.
“… … Did you finish it?”
“No, if you say that there… … .”
Noah was embarrassed and was about to say something.
Wow! Pop!
With a strange sound, the pulverized body stuck back together. Then, in the blink of an eye, all of his body was completely restored.
A reaction that didn’t feel like a blow at all.
Ibella looked surprised.
“Well, it was real, right?”
“No, how do I handle that?!”
Ian also shouted in shock.
It would be worth it.
You’ve probably never heard of a monster that isn’t effective against weapons made from minerals.
Seeing the two bewildered, Ulan and Noah taught them how to deal with the swamp clan.
“Anything is fine as long as it’s not a mineral weapon.”
“The same goes for magic and divine power!”
Weapons made of wood.
Alternatively, only magic, divine power, or elemental magic can inflict effective damage on the swamp’s descendants.
I’m afraid to tell you this.
The two girls stepped forward.
“Then, it’s my turn to step forward.”
“I’ll join too!”
It was Delia and Laurea.
In the original, the two boasted the best compatibility against the swamp clan. Of course, the same was true for their master, the swamp ruler.
‘That’s why the swamp ruler never touched them first when they were together.’
It was because I realized that I was at a relative disadvantage.
In other words, a boss monster that is weak against wizards and priests, but strong against warriors. That was the ruler of the swamp.
‘In that sense, Ulan… … .’
It was safe to say that it was the worst match.
No matter how perfect the body and the imprint of a hero are, if the weapon itself does not work, the fight itself cannot take place.
‘But it will be different from now on.’
After thinking about it, Noah grinned.
Because there are variables here that didn’t exist in the original. It was the same for Ulan who remembered his past life, but there was a more special variable than that.
『The Great Shaman, Noah Darshen』
Although he was buried in the Seven Heroes and was inactive, Noah is also a worthy named character.
Among the skills possessed by Noah Darshen in the original work, there was one that could ignore the offsetting effects of the swamp ruler and his followers.
And coincidentally, the current Noah had also acquired that skill.
‘therefore… … .’
Noah did not join the battle and retreated. It was to make an amulet in case the ruler of the swamp appeared.
Meanwhile, around that time.
bang! Quaaaang!
A loud explosion shook the hall.
It was the sound of Delia’s magic and Laurea’s prayers eliminating the swamp’s relatives one by one.
“Everyone fights well.”
Ibella sighed.
A listless expression. I wanted to work together, but I couldn’t, so it seems like I lost my spirit.
The only consolation is that Ulan is also here. To this, Bella added her words with an awkward smile on her face.
“All we can do is watch.”
“Not necessarily.”
Then Ulan shook his head.
As if there was a way to deal with the swamp clan. Ibella asked back in a puzzled tone.
“huh? “What does that mean?”
“You can defeat it even without using a weapon.”
“really? how?”
Ibella asked back with a surprised face.
Just then, I felt a presence behind me.
About three or four swamp clansmen raided the rear. Ulan, who saw this, immediately narrowed down his area, telling him to watch carefully.
And stretched out his fist.
Whoa!
The sound of cutting the wind. Then, a loud sound, like a balloon bursting, engulfed the room.
Whoops!
It was the sound of the swamp’s roots exploding.
The family of the shattered swamp remained silent. After arranging the remaining family members, Ulan looked back at Ibella and answered.
“This way we can get rid of it.”
“… … “What did you do?”
“All you have to do is create a shock wave and send it flying.”
Ibella was speechless.
This is because my thoughts stopped at actions and answers that went far beyond common sense. On the other hand, Ulan responded that it was no big deal.
“Anyone can do it if they practice.”
“Really?”
“Of course. Would you like to try?”
“No, I’m fine.”
Ibella smiled awkwardly.
Although it was tempting for a moment, the act of extending a fist and creating a shock wave seemed like something only Ulan could do.
So that’s when I shook my head.
Noah suddenly joined the conversation.
“Then I will help you.”
“huh? How can I help you? … .”
“like this.”
After answering, Noah attached six amulets to Ibella’s sword. Likewise, she attached the same talisman to Ulan’s axe.
Some time after that.
The blue light flowing from the amulet permeated the two weapons. Ulan, who was looking at this, asked back with curiosity.
“What is this?”
“It’s a technique that changes the properties of a weapon. And now it has changed from iron to wood.”
“That means… … .”
“Yes, if you do this, the attack will work.”
Noah smiled brightly.
Ibella blushed brightly at those words. Ulan also widened her eyes as if she was surprised.
“It’s an interesting technique.”
There was nothing like this in my past life.
So he took the Bible that Laurea always carried with him and used it as a weapon. As a bonus, after a fight, she was always nagging.
But you can use a weapon completely by attaching just a few talismans.
This was a huge help.
“I don’t need to nag you this time.”
Ulan, holding the axe, grinned.
It was a satisfied smile.
Afterwards, when Ulan and Ibella joined the fight, the fight ended quickly. It was around the time we were advancing, defeating the swamp’s descendants.
The group finally reached their destination.
The end of Area 3.
At the border leading to Area 4, a distorted scene was seen in the air. A crack that looks like someone forcibly opened the air.
It was a chasm of the abyss.
