147 – Erna’s Legacy

Fried Shrimp No, after exploring the cave with the ancient spirit Erkana, I can now go the right way without looking for signposts.

-Really, that demon is too much. Inside the beautiful cave…

“Don’t worry. I can purify it at this level.”

“That’s right! How strong our hero is!”

“Goddess, please come inside the holy sword.”

Let’s go clean up once the words come out. Looking at the wall, it seems that it is meaningless to purify the outside because it is polluted to the depths. After digging it out, insert the Holy Sword and emit light.

While I was lost in thought, Harin came up to me and asked. In a powerful voice.

“Is there anything we can do for you! Captain Lee Do?”

“Hmm… That’s great. I think everyone needs some help.”

I conveyed the plan I had just made to everyone.

“In a word, major surgery is needed to purify the walls!”

“…That’s right.”

First, Nemesis devours the musical instruments on the outside.

“Mortal. No message from the liver.”

“Wow… I really ate that! Is it delicious?”

Before I could say anything, Sohee shook her head and answered instead.

“I’m going to eat something like that now.”

“Try it once. Huhu. The tangy taste is excellent.”

“Oh… I’m shaking. Ah, no! I have to keep my duty as a human being…!”

Yes, no matter how Harin is, he could not even eat musical instruments. Anyway, the surface cleaning is finished. Now, to make the surface smooth, I asked Linne for wind magic.

I can do it, but only to focus on light magic. When you do it once, you have to make sure you don’t do it twice.

“Splinters will fly. Be careful…”

“This is when we have to step in, Neri.”

“Kyuwoo!”

Wheein!

A strong wind erodes the surface. In the aftermath, Harin and Neri gathered the fragments that splashed into the water droplets using water magic. And it doesn’t seem necessary to do it, but I bounced it off with my head through the performance.

“The seal circus to the finish.”

“Did you learn from Harin? It’s cool.”

Lynn patted Neri with her motherly smile.

“Quoo. Quuu.”

“Stay away now.”

Kwaaang!

Suddenly, the holy sword was inserted into the smooth wall. And like this, the light of purification and the light of healing flowed.

Then, the wall of the cave cracked and crumbled with a loud sound.

“Do, the wall of the cave was smashed! Didn’t Ido adjust the power wrong?”

“I thought so… It can’t collapse so easily.”

It seems the ice queen is hiding something. Since it’s a game novel, wouldn’t it be like an Easter egg? The ice orb that appeared when the wall was cracked supported my claim.

– This is…! It is a magic crystal ball that Erna used before she was alive. I thought it would be hidden in a place like this.

Thanks to that, the instrument was not damaged. Did you intend Is it a coincidence

“But the light in the crystal ball seems to be off.”

“Yes. Leave this to me.”

As Sohee carefully took the crystal ball with both hands, it quickly regained its light. Ercana, who watched the scene, shed tears once more.

-Eup, yuphehehe… I don’t know how long it’s been since I’ve seen this again.

Your tone is blunt, but you have a surprisingly tearful personality. Meanwhile, Sohee, who was holding the crystal ball, looked at me.

“Is it because you want to take the crystal ball? You can take it. It’s a meaningful item that you have to use anyway.”

“…Thank you.”

“What is it? A gift exchange?”

“It’s noisy.”

At that moment, I turned my head to the evil energy that was emanating from me.

[(Unknown grade) Erna’s third creation has appeared.]

[Beneficial effect applied]

Berring.

A creature?

It looks like a shark standing on two legs.

“What is that? I can feel the power of the trees and ice over there… Is it a spirit? But I don’t feel the energy of life to be called a spirit.”

-It’s as you say. A magician who has reached the realm of unification of ice and snow… That is a creature created by Erna. It serves to protect the heritage and at the same time tests those who have reached this place.

“But there is such a creature in demonic spirit.”

-Euphuh…

“Sohee rang the spirit!”

“…”

I drew my two swords and went forward.

“What are the characteristics of the Third Creature?”

– Hut! How did you know that was the third creature?

“Ah. That’s… A shark, so take it. Third, third…”

A ridiculous excuse won’t work.

– Sharp. That’s the answer.

“Crazy.”

“You’re smart too!”

I don’t want to be praised for something like this. Anyway, Ercana explained about him.

-It turns its surroundings into water and ice and charges at a very high speed with its fins.

“Yes? It’s not that difficult.”

But we shouldn’t be careless. As the spirit said, mist spewed out from the shark’s gills, moistening the surrounding environment.

“Can the creatures be killed only with ice cubes?”

-Not necessarily.

“Okay. Leave this to me.”

A creature resembling a shark, spurred on with both feet, rushed at me.

Chaeing !!!

[Steel parrying has been activated.]

“…”

He kneels in front of me. After that, he was stabbed with the curse of Nemesis without much difficulty.

-It’s an instrument that accompanies the shark’s fin… Not bad.

Since it’s a creature, isn’t it an artificial shark’s fin? Well, what does that matter?

– Great. Magic never seen before… The third creature lost its power in an instant.

“That’s parrying! It’s Lee Do-man’s exclusive patent.”

-Parring? Proprietary patent?

“By the way, Neri here can use her belly fat as well.”

“Kyuuu!”

-Nehring? Belly Fat? Do you have muscles?

“Oh. Do you understand what Neri is saying? Oh, it’s the same water spirit.”

I put my sword in and looked at Erkana.

“How many creatures are there in total? What are their characteristics?”

-Originally, since it was a test, I wouldn’t explain it, but now, since it’s a special matter with musical instruments, I’ll explain everything.

“Thank you.”

I heard all the explanations about the creature from the spirit. Unexpectedly, the number is not so large, and it is said that only the second and first creatures remain.

-For reference, the second creature is guarding the legacy and is the strongest.

“Why? Aren’t the first creatures usually the strongest?”

Because it is -2, it is the strongest.

“…?”

I didn’t understand what you meant, but it wasn’t that important, so I decided to skip it.

-Anyway, like the third creature just before, it can pop out of nowhere instead of the originally designated place… Be careful…

As soon as we ran out of words, the first creature greeted us. As Ercana said, it was a huge sea lion.

[(Unknown grade) Erna’s first creation has appeared.]

-If you touch those fangs, it’s over. However, the instrument seems to be much stronger. What do we do? How is it…

“Don’t cry because I can handle it.”

When I stared at the fang with the eyes of the sky, the effect that was applied immediately appeared.

-The realm of unity of ice and water and musical instruments are fused to become much harder and stronger.

Something’s effect is so long. Since it’s solid, I’ll give it a try. The third construct was too soft to use.

“Nemesis.”

-Yes, mortal. I’m getting excited at the thought of preying on that sea lion…

Flame!

From nob le mt l dot com

Nemesis Fury, it seemed like it could be used even when excited rather than angry.

-Did Nemesis have that kind of power… It’s strong.

Kwaaang!

His fangs collide with the curse of Nemesis. Soon after, the fangs broke with a loud sound.

-Erna’s proud fangs shattered at once!

“This is cool too!”

“Kuu!”

Pu-wook!

In the end, I stabbed his core and killed it. It’s a creature, so it’s not a heart, it’s a nucleus.

-Ice Queen. hehehe, did you cook as a hobby? It’s a pity that I couldn’t meet you before.

“…”

With this, there is only one creature left. It is the second most powerful creature. And the second creature…

“I heard you were guarding the legacy? Guide me.”

Erkana, wearing a fried shrimp outfit, nodded her head.

***

Originally, I would have wandered around the cave for a long time, but thanks to Erkkana, I was able to reach the legacy much faster. That’s how we arrived at the giant ice gate.

-You can reach the legacy by opening this door. And you will face the second creature.

“How do I open the door?”

-I can’t say it’s um, it’s kind of a test, um. Do I have to tell you because the matter is the matter? Hmm…

“No. Let’s think about it.”

Just in time, Harin likes to escape the room.

“Captain! I found a hole in the giant door. By the way, Neri found it.”

“Nice job, Neri.”

“Kuu!”

The hole is not a natural hole. It looks like someone made it artificially.

“So-hee, can you catch it?”

“Yes. I’ll stab you with an ercal.”

She holds her staff in her right hand, and with her left hand creates an erkal of ice and water. The ancient spirit next to her shed tears of emotion once more.

“When the door opens, the second creature will appear, as I said. It might suddenly attack like the third creature… Mr. Linne. I’ll leave Harin and Neri in your care.”

“Yes.”

“Ah~ Leave it to us. We can protect our bodies too!”

“…Then you two protect Rinne-san.”

“Only trust us!”

“Quiet!”

“Whoops, that’s reassuring.”

As I put Ercal through the hole in her door, Ercana answered without saying anything.

– That is the correct answer. Wizard. This is a security device Erna made after someone robbed the ice warehouse. It can only be opened at the level of all ice and water.

She replied that the goddess inside the holy sword did not steal it.

-I see. I don’t know the details. Anyway, the door opens. Everybody get nervous

Kiki!

The huge door opens. At the same time, the legacy wrapped in ice. Also, the second creature guarding it, an ice statue in the shape of Queen Erna, began to move.

[(Unknown grade) Erna’s second creation has appeared.]

A creature that uses Erna’s magic as it is. It was also said that the power of all ice and water was needed to inflict damage.

“Sohee. Can I ask you one more time?”

“Yeah. Oh… Hey, I had a good idea… Can I show you the two swords for a second?”

As I showed the two swords, Sohee raised her hands above them. And a notification window pops up.

[Twin swords have been given the attribute of one tree and ice!]

“How is it?”

“That’s good. I’ll cut it down and come back.”
