How the Shadow of the Marquis Lives

Chapter 143

Originally, Pandemonium, where the battle between Kazar and Drach was fierce, was strangely brutal even after Jiren Kazar died.

Drak went through the task of taking over the city while dealing with the remaining Kazar’s remnants, and at the same time he was looking for Jiren’s beast.

Between the cities, Xian was walking in a yellow robe.

The destination is the exit from the city.

It was an eastern direction to get out of the desert.

‘Let’s go north?’

[To my hometown. Let’s spend some maintenance time there.]

Psyche wants to go back to her hometown to recover her strength.

What she said was right. You don’t know what will happen after invading the domain of the King Haeryung.

In the worst case, there is a possibility that there will be a battle with the head of the Haeryung Palace… … To be honest, it wasn’t low.

If there is a means to recover Psyche’s power before that, recovery will be more likely.

‘Certainly that would be better.’

[Is it decided?]

‘okay.’

Psyche was delighted that it was her hometown after a long time.

Leaving her like that, Xian opened the map and searched for the route for a while.

Looking to the east or north, it wasn’t much different until I got out of the desert anyway.

Because there weren’t that many exits out of the desert in the first place.

“Hey there!”

At that time, two Lizardmen of Drach who were patrolling around the sharp-edged spear called Xian.

Xian stopped.

Then the guys who approached me growled menacingly and talked.

“Take off the hood.”

“Why?”

“I’m looking for a dark-haired human. If it’s confirmed that it’s not, I’ll just let you go, so take it off.”

Xian also knew the atmosphere of the city well enough.

And the fact that Drake’s intention to find himself is never favorable.

There were a lot of things he did, such as killing his competitor, Jiren, escorting his daughter to this place safely, and selling favors.

In the first place, these people weren’t particularly strict about Eun-Won.

“Why are you so procrastinating? Is it that hard to take off one of them?”

“This guy can’t… … .”

They gave a puzzled look at Xian, who was still without answering or taking off his robe.

The two glanced at each other once, and then one of them reached out for Xian’s robe.

Xian let out a small sigh.

“I must run.”

Awesome!

Black light flashed, and the Lizardman’s arm was severed from the elbow.

“Quaaagh!”

“It’s him!”

The other Lizardman put his hand in his bosom and tried to pull out the whistle.

Xian’s eyes didn’t miss it.

hooked!

In an instant, he swung his sword and cut off the guy’s head, and finished the rest.

– aaagh!

– What again!

Citizens screamed at the fountain of blood gushing out in the middle of the city center in broad daylight.

“Catch it!”

“Follow me!”

Hearing the commotion, Lizardmen nearby rushed in an instant.

Xian didn’t insert his sword and ran as it was. towards the eastern exit of the city.

Dozens of arrows rained down on Xian’s head as he ran down the street.

In addition, it was full of hot fireballs, as if there were wizards mixed in.

“It’s still hot.”

Xian complained softly and took out the spear.

And he swung at them without hesitation, covering the sky in black.

Fire!

Chii profit!

Arrows are swept away by the stream of water spreading out of the sea, and fireballs evolve and disappear.

The water evaporated, leaving only steam to fill the surroundings.

It’s small, but it wasn’t bad to cover the guys’ view.

“Close the door!”

drooling-

As I approached the exit, the eastern gate was closed.

It was a huge door, so it took a while to close, but it seemed like it would close completely before Xian arrived.

Xian’s eyes flashed.

Before he knew it, he was holding a glaive with a white blade instead of a blue spear.

Among Ravi’s swords, a sword of white flame that has the most outstanding destructive power. all sorts of flowers.

[ Heavenly Sword (霜天劍) – Heavenly Thunder (天雷)]

Kwakwagwagwagwang!

A hundred flowers fell toward the door that was almost closing.

The center of the gate was completely shattered with white flames and lightning.

The broken and melting remains of a door.

Xian jumped over such an open space.

“… … .”

“how… … .”

The Lizardmen looked at it with bewildered faces after seeing the power to blow through the large castle gate at once.

They couldn’t run any further. Even if it was a family order, nothing was as important as one’s own life.

Xian ran through the open road.

In the meantime, I saw a familiar face somewhere in front of me.

“… … .”

Tsar.

An old bearded lizardman who escorted Drach’s daughter when they entered Pandaemonium.

Xian’s expression softened.

Although they are acquainted, they are not loyal to each other.

No matter how familiar they are, if they block their way, they will only cut them down.

While the other Lizardmen were shaking their hands with drawn faces, at least the guy was holding a spear with a firm expression.

however.

“after… … .”

The char released the hand of the arm holding the spear. The sharp tip of the spear aimed at Xian fell.

Like that, Xian was able to pass by Tsar without any obstruction.

‘Maybe it’s because their lives are precious like the others.’

Or are you counting the work at that time as grace?

Now, there is no way to know the truth.

Because it wasn’t a cyan to stop to ask that one thing.

That’s how Xi’an left behind the huge oasis city, Pandaemonium.

In front of his eyes, only endless sand stretched out.

* * *

Mountains covered with cold snow.

Xian was trudging toward the highest peak.

“Isn’t it too cold?”

[It’s a place like this, what should I do?]

His outfit was 180 degrees different from when he was in the desert before.

The appearance of the time when he wore only a tan robe to hide his appearance over a thin and simple outfit.

But now, the whole body was wrapped in cold weather items.

Even so, I couldn’t stop this cold air. Every time the cold wind blew, it would chill to the bone.

“It seems to be twice as cold as Glacier Baengnyeong.”

[It was just a warm greenhouse to me.]

The cold of Glacier Baengnyeong could be solved by turning mana, but the cold here was not that great.

No matter how much mana you turn, it penetrates through them.

Should I call it Hell or what should I call it? … .

at that time.

-Koo-gu-gu-gu!

The ground shakes. It was a very slight shaking, but Xian sensed it sensitively.

He stopped walking up the mountain for a moment.

And counting to three inwardly.

“Suck!”

I jumped back a lot.

Then something huge rose from where he had just been.

ice worm.

A monster that digs into this cold mountain as if it were its own house.

Dozens of teeth were packed into its mouth, which split into four, and its body was covered with white, slimy bodily fluid.

“There is no end to these guys.”

Xian put on a tired expression.

Coming to this northern area, Xian fought a lot of battles with monsters and demons.

The same goes for ice worms.

Right after entering this mountain range, he was the one who always appeared and interfered with Xi’an.

“Kyaaa!”

The ice worm rose to catch Xian again, then fell down to devour him.

Xian drew his sword. It was not a black sword, but a white glaive and white flowers.

Cian, holding it with both hands wrapped in white flame, swung it wide.

Awesome!

The ice worm’s torso, which had risen above the ground, was cut as it was.

The white flame attached to the split wound greedily devoured the ice worm’s torso.

Shortly thereafter, the boy burned and disappeared without a trace.

“Whoa.”

However, when I move my body, I feel more feverish. There was also the heat from the white flowers.

Riding on that momentum, Xian climbed the peak again.

There were several more ice worm attacks in the middle, but all of them were not very different.

It wasn’t a cyan to trouble a monster like this.

The summit arrived like that.

There was an entrance to a huge cave made of ice.

“Are you here?”

[huh. It’s my house.]

“Did you pierce it yourself?”

[no? It’s the most plausible spot in the north here, so it’s settled. The guy who used to live here devours it.]

Xian entered it.

When I went inside a little bit, all the sunlight was blocked and I couldn’t see the road.

He lit a torch, held it up, and, guided by Psyche, walked through the cave.

Let’s walk like that for a while.

[Enough here.]

“arrived?”

[huh. I will go alone from now on.]

Psyche slid down from my wrist.

[I’m going to take a nap, so I’m spending time nearby. Or were you living in a village at the bottom of the mountain?]

The little snake looked up at Xian and spoke.

The village at the bottom of the mountain meant the yeti’s village that they had seen before coming up here.

They simply supplied supplies and climbed the mountain immediately, but it was a village with a loose atmosphere. Enough to lay down for a while.

“How long will it take?”

[Well, I’ll have to take a look. I’ll break it down in a month and let you know, so wait until then.]

It’s one month… … . That wasn’t such a long time.

In the first place, it wasn’t going to be a day or two, so I was prepared.

[You can use the cave as you like, as long as you don’t come into my place. Just watch out for getting lost. There are so many places that I haven’t been to yet.]

“okay. Then in a month.”

[huh. Don’t die.]

Psyche left, leaving only that strangely ringing word.

Seeing the little white snake wriggling out of sight, Xian crossed his arms.

Then what will you do from now on… … .

‘Either go to the yeti village and settle down, or hunt monsters nearby.’

Make sure to read from noble mtl dot com

Just as Ravi absorbs energy from the demons, he was able to absorb energy from the monsters here.

Of course, compared to the suckers in the real world, it was at the level of new blood.

The guys I’ve encountered in the present world are the ones who make contracts with warlocks or plan to descend.

At that level, even in this hell world, they were considered to be high-ranking demons.

Among the people Xian had encountered so far, there was no one of that level except for Jiren Kazar.

Conversely, ice worms are low-level monsters with no intelligence, let alone high-ranking, not even reaching the level of ordinary demons.

The energy you could get from them was extremely minimal.

‘Still, it’s better than nothing.’

Still, it’s better than doing nothing.

They reached the top faster than expected, so there are still plenty of supplies left.

Let’s do some more hunting before we go down.

Having made that decision, Xian came out of the cave and set up a base camp in an appropriate place.

And around that place, he started wiping out all the monsters around him.

No matter how weak a monster is, actual combat is actual combat.

In addition to the energy drawn from them, you should be able to gain some experience in combat.

a few days to do that.

“huh?”

There were no monsters left near the top of the mountain, so they came down halfway down to hunt.

Xian discovered something strange.

An entrance to a cave similar to the one at the top.

So far, nothing much has changed.

-Sureung.

A mysterious headless knight in armor was blocking his way.
