ch93 "……." Blankly. Just like watching clouds drifting with the wind, or the thousands of advertisements that flash by every day, I lie on my stomach on the bed, staring out the window. The train, which I thought would head towards the ground like a roller coaster from the upper levels, descended vertically to the lower levels, like an elevator that citizens use every day. Showing a glimpse of the city through the window on the way down is more like a Ferris wheel than a roller coaster, a sightseeing…-

ch92 No matter how much technology advances, the ones wielding it are still the same people. I wouldn't want to call it an experience, and it's too unsettling to be a lesson, even after learning it. I wish I could simply say that those kinds of experiential activities are over. "Please be careful of your step. The ledge of the connection is a bit high." "...How considerate of you?" "As a dedicated first-class attendant, I have undergone extensive training to ensure that I can serve guests without any…

ch70 'This is troublesome.' Gal and Pallas stood facing each other, neither willing to yield an inch. Gal, showing no particular emotion, his expressionless face only amplifying his arrogance. Pallas, radiating murderous intent yet maintaining a ki flow as smooth as still water. 'If those two fight, it'll be a disaster.' This was the Great Temple, located in the very heart of Poheln, the most prosperous and densely populated city of mankind. The symbolism of the Great Temple, a place of worship, in the…

ch69 This particular covert mission was never meant to be public knowledge. Given that both he and Gal were rather conspicuous, they needed to return via back roads, not the main thoroughfares. "After hearing it from the kids, I wasn't sure... You're alive?" "Did you wish for your master's death?" Dubhe, whom he'd summoned outside the Pohellen fortress walls with a secret Thieves' Guild signal, stared at him as if he'd seen a ghost. He chuckled. "No, it's just, isn't the world a dangerous place? If…

"What are you saying? ...You're going to fight against other Elves?" Doubt flickers in his eyes. He's wearing a face that says, 'If you're thinking nonsense, I'll spank you.' As if he could even touch me. "Haven't you ever thought it's strange?" "...What?" "Our language." Does he think it's out of the blue? The way he tilts his head doesn't match his usual fierce demeanor. "That's because our mother is the World Tree." "Are you complaining that our mother is the World…

A body so massive I had to crane my neck almost at a right angle to see it. Both giants, who seemed to be brothers, were about 2 Elte in height compared to Rudolph, but these two seemed to be four times that size. Despite the thick layers of fat and protruding bellies, the outlines of their muscles were still visible. Considering their size and mass, it seemed like it would be difficult for them to even support themselves, but even though they seemed a bit clumsy, they moved without much…

"I've made a spot over there. Follow me." Without waiting for a reply, he disappears. I chuckle and lead Rudolph. "Let's go." He wears a disgruntled expression, but a quick show of my fist silences him, and he quietly moves in the direction Pallas vanished. Before long, we arrive at what 'used to be a forest' clearing. "Crazy." A clearing in the middle of the forest. But there are signs of trees being roughly uprooted everywhere, and on one side, the trees that were pulled out are…

ch68 '...Algul crossed the sea?' Since Antirea's visit, Aliya had been in torment. Algul, the Einherjar of the Orcs, born from Bwon Krshaka. A parricide who killed his own father and seized his flesh and power. And the enemy who, along with his brother, the Einherjar of the Imps, Gadiak, killed their father, Ul Kanadiel. In the Eastern Continent, he was the leader of a race that had fought for supremacy with his brothers for hundreds of years. '...Has something changed in the Eastern Continent?' It had…

ch68.5 Pallas was born the fifth son among the High Elves created by his mother, the World Tree El-Prigion. The mission bestowed upon him by his mother was valor. His duty was to protect the other Elves so they could fulfill their own missions. Befitting this mission, Pallas was born more warlike and stronger than other High Elves or Elves. Within the vast forest that was his mother's domain, the land of the Elves, now known as the Elven Road, was initially just a part of the forest. The Elves received…

ch66 "Gal... what is all this?" In the silence, broken only by the heavy breathing of a wounded beast, I managed to speak. The dragon, collapsed in its nest and panting, opened its eyes, and I could see the fatigue and pain within them. But even as Gal looked at me with those eyes, it only struggled to breathe, unable or unwilling to explain. Realizing I wouldn't get an answer right away, I instinctively began to assess Gal's condition. Giant swords, like ancient trees, were embedded deep within Gal's…

ch67 Beneath a dark sky where only starlight reflected its form, I sat by a crackling bonfire, feeding it newly gathered twigs to fuel its growth. Gal and I were already beyond the reach of darkness and impervious to the cold, so there was no need to light a fire for warmth or light. Nor did we need to sleep, so moving about at night wouldn't be a strain. But there was no need to live by logic alone, was there? I liked the tranquil atmosphere beneath this night sky. "Hmm..." "Still examining it?" "I've…

ch63 "I can't do this." Though I was the only one watching, those words escaped my lips a mere day after I started making clothes, all to maintain a modicum of dignity as a social being. In reality, over 60% of this place was Gal Dragon's territory, but here, in what was known as the giants' domain, everything was enormous. That meant the plants suitable for making fabric were, too. Splitting and twisting the coarse hemp fibers to create cloth by hand was an incredibly tedious process. While I could…

ch64 "...You really can't make anything, can you?" "...Leave me be. Who do you think I'm doing this for?" I snapped at the blonde Elf, Gal Dragon, who kept interrupting with his snide remarks. Gal Dragon, who had transformed into an Elf to try and understand me, was attempting to make clothes. Using plant fibers to make clothes was put on hold. After that, he tried making them out of leather, but the beasts inhabiting Gal Dragon's territory were as massive as they were thick-skinned and thick-hided,…

ch65 "A pre-historic civilization existed that rivaled our current one, or perhaps even surpassed it!" The dwarf professor in charge of magical engineering, an individual of a race half the size of humans, yet claiming to be descendants of giants, was red in the face as he passionately exclaimed. "If that weren't the case, how could an item enchanted 3600 years ago still function perfectly, and we still can't figure out the principles behind that enchantment? Unless you're all just empty-headed fools,…

ch61 "So, you're saying you abandoned Araya and ran away." "That's a loaded way of putting it. It's not that we abandoned her and ran. Rather, Araya's two giant disciples left the battlefield at her behest to deliver a message, just in case something happened. Thanks to them, we were able to get information about the current situation." "Or were you just scared and ran, and now you're making excuses?" "The two giants were severely injured when they arrived. That's proof they did their best. Besides, if…
