93. Love Like a Flame

“Bugurrr…!”

Air escapes from the lungs as the body is crushed by the tremendous water pressure.

I tried to cover my mouth with my hand somehow, but my body was spinning without a sense of space, and I couldn’t move at will because of the force of being pulled down and the current.

It’s not that I can’t stand it, but what I’m worried about is Joseph, who I managed to catch on to.

He seems to have already lost his mind, and he is flaccid and fluttering here and there like a balloon doll.

Damn I’m not dead. If only I could open a shield…!

I stretched my hand out in front of me, but the mana seemed to be affected by the current, so it didn’t gather easily and continued to scatter.

Doha. Where is doha

I strain my neck as much as I can and look around. There is nothing to see properly in the dizzyingly rotating field of view.

It’s being sucked down anyway, so it must be being swept around here similar to me.

Maybe he’s already dead, but he still holds onto Joseph firmly. He gathered enough mana to hold on to him, so he was able to withstand the flow of water.

How many seconds had passed? A bright light began to be seen in a corner of the frantic swaying field of view.

A beam of light radiating straight and bright, like a flashlight turned on in a dark basement.

And I noticed that the beam of light was getting bigger and bigger.

In other words… It means that the beam of light is growing, or is heading toward it.

“Grrr…”

Air is blown out of the mouth due to the tremendous water pressure that presses down on the whole body, and it disappears as bubbles.

Quarreuk!

Just then, something huge brushes past me right next to me.

It was a long, cylindrical wooden pole, but it stood upright and was being sucked towards the cluster of lights at a very high speed, as if it was riding on the whirlpool.

A mast?

It reminds me of the whirlpool created when I open the stopper to flush the water after washing the dishes.

The remnants that were gradually being sucked into the center got on the whirlpool and disappeared down the hole standing vertically along the rotating whirlpool, right?

f*ck. Let’s do something Would you rather die anyway?

I hugged Joseph tightly and straightened my body as much as possible. The moment when the body, which was swaying in all directions and refusing to flow, accepted the current.

“…!!!”

My body is dragged forward as if I received momentum.

If this is zero hundred, would it be about 0.1 Second?

A trivial thought passed through my head, and I crashed into the center of the blue haze.

***

“Cool! Cool! Ugh!”

Regurgitate the water in the lungs. Rather than regurgitating, should I say that I am regurgitating instinctively?

When I came to my senses, I found myself inside a damp cave, and next to me lay Joseph as if he were dead.

The reason I said that I was lying down as if I was dead is because I’m not dead yet. It’s because I feel a very weak life force in him.

After taking care of myself, I quickly go to Joseph’s side.

“Should I do CPR?”

How can you not use mana?

Put your hand on Joseph’s heart. Sends mana through Joseph’s body to stimulate her nerves.

Wriggling.

Joseph’s fingers twitch as if electrified.

“AE…AE…. What was it. I don’t know Mr. A.”

There was something that automatically shocked my heart, but my memory is hazy.

Place your left hand on Joseph’s heart and your right hand on Joseph’s abdomen, then inject mana.

Stimulate your muscles with mana so as not to strain your heart as much as possible, and push the water out of your lungs.

“Cool!”

Joseph clears his throat, and water trickles down from the corner of his mouth.

“Cool! Cool!”

A large amount of water continued to flow out of Joseph’s mouth, and his body coughed involuntarily.

“Won’t you wake up soon?”

Shall we increase the intensity a little more?

“Heo Eok!”

The moment he ponders whether to increase the stimulation intensity, Joseph opens his eyes.

Opening his eyes, he looked at me with wide open pupils, then rolled his eyes to examine his surroundings. Perhaps you are figuring out what happened to you.

I step back a bit for the confused person. As I stepped back, Joseph lifted his upper body lightly.

“Hey, this place? Me? I’m sure something fell on the boat earlier and went to the sea…”

“Calm down. It’s true that I fell into the sea, but I was swept away by the whirlpool. But I don’t know where I am.”

Damp air and lukewarm temperatures. Whether it should be green or blue, the walls of mysterious colors are smoothly trimmed and resemble the structure of columnar joints.

“Gee, is it on the ground?”

“That’s probably not it.”

It’s not on the ground. That’s how I rode the whirlpool and was sucked into the beam of light. No. What if it’s like a teleportation portal?

Now that I’m talking about it, it’s not that it doesn’t make much sense.

“Oh my God…”

However, Joseph’s expression was devastated, as if his will had been broken by my infidelity.

“Let’s not be so mean. You survived anyway. Even surviving is a miracle in itself.”

“Ah, aren’t you a devil? You can only get out of here with a single gesture, right?”

…A while ago, I suspected it was a demon. After going through a few hardships, things have become very different. Are you saying there is nothing to cover between the judges?

“Sorry. I don’t know how to teleport.”

“That’s right!! Then I have to die here!”

Joseph jumps up and approaches me and grabs my pants by the crotch.

After coming back to life, I feel a little pathetic. This guy.

“Either die frozen or die of starvation. Let’s move first. Anyway, you almost drowned, but you’re quite fine?”

I let go of his hand holding his crotch.

“That’s right. It’s rather light… Could this be the power of the contract?”

Joseph looked at his hands trembling.

“What should I do with this power?”

Then he clenches his fist and looks at me like he’s determined to do something.

Why are you suddenly looking at me seriously with a resolute expression?

“You said something like the power of a contract and fell asleep. If you have the strength to talk nonsense, just walk.”

“Heh, hehehe. I’m sorry.”

As if he was embarrassed, he averted his gaze and apologized.

I took Joseph and walked aimlessly along the road for dozens of minutes.

I wanted to stretch my senses and find the energy of Doha, but the walls of the cave absorbed mana.

How can we talk about this… If we can’t find a real exit like this, then we have no choice but to starve to death after wandering forever.

Buying is not buying. On the contrary, it may have a more miserable and lonely ending…

“Me, that devil.”

“Why?”

“Are you really the devil?”

Why are you talking nonsense again?

“Why?”

I was not in a good mood because I remembered the worst bed ending, so I answered Joseph’s words with a short answer.

“Oh, no. I heard that demons and demons eat people’s hearts and steal their souls…”

“It’s not even a nine-tailed fox. No, is a nine-tailed fox a liver?”

“Two arms? Nine-tailed fox?”

That’s right. It’s a fantasy world, but I wonder if there are gumihos. I wonder if Are you really skipping liver?

“What kind of era are these days? The industry here is constantly changing.”

That’s bullsh*t. It’s because I’m not part of this side or the industry. If I were to ask, would you like to become a freelancer?

“Indeed. You mean development?”

“That’s it.”

You never know. Maybe the world of demons changed a bit because I came out of the world of demons and the wind of change blew. First of all, there are fewer accidents like going to war.

…Isn’t it?

I remember the boat (?) Other brother I met in the underground waterway. If you look at what they were doing in the basement of the imperial capital, it might be the same now as it was in the past.

“Actually, I wanted to be an adventurer.”

Joseph, who was quiet for a moment, brought out a sound that sounded like a tteongtangji again.

“Is it dawn now?”

“That, well?”

It feels like you are reciting your personal history, soaked in the dawn sensibility.

“So. I wanted to be an adventurer.”

“No, I have a family business, and my parents are fiercely against it. They say dungeons are more dangerous than the sea…”

“I see.”

It’s a dungeon. I must have experienced dungeons before. There was a time when Doha broke the entire dungeon during camp training.

“Anywhere, if you are not sufficiently prepared, it is dangerous.”

“That’s right.”

“But why did you come out to sea?”

Joseph was silent at my question. Don’t you have anything to say?

“People are worried. If I hadn’t come, it would have been fish food.”

“Sorry.”

Joseph meekly admits his mistake. When it comes out like that, I have nothing to say.

Each person will have circumstances that they can’t talk about, so let’s not ask any more questions.

“You’re not a demon, are you?”

I stopped walking at Joseph’s point and turned to reply.

“Is that right?”

Because it’s… It’s… It’s… It’s…

Quarreuk. Dududududuuk.

As I stopped, the pebbles pushed forward, the sound receding farther and farther down.

On top of that, my echoing voice is a bonus.

I swallowed my saliva and slowly turned around.

“Please don’t berate me.”

Huge. Literally, a huge and vast plaza appeared. A tidy space, as if someone had dug it out in a circle.

And in the center of the plaza, there was a bluish curtain, and a woman with a familiar appearance was flying around inside.

“Oh my God… Goddess…”

Joseph, who came next to me, also opens his mouth at the ridiculous sight.

I wonder if it’s a bit like mentioning a goddess next to a giant demon?

Doha, who has changed her fists and feet into the form of dragons, is flying around like a darter and smashing something that is rushing towards her.

Something in olive green with angel wings was in the form of a person, but it was more like a crude robot.

Everyone wielding spears, swords, and shields madly rushed towards the river, but there were so many that it looked pitch black.

I wondered where he was and he was having a fight in a place like that…

At that time. I could feel Doha’s eyes looking this way.

“Shouldn’t we run away too?”

Frightened by the overwhelming sight, Joseph hesitantly retreats.

“You are here.”

“Yes? Where are you going… You’re not going there, are you?”

Joseph almost begs him not to go.

“It’s sad. I’ll die if I don’t go there.”

“What do you mean by that?”

“There is something like that. Anyway, don’t go anywhere and hide here.”

Leaving behind Joseph, the flower descends steeply and lightly jumps down toward the slope.

“Ah, demon!!!”

Ignoring Joseph’s cries, he spreads his wings.

I’m sorry, Joseph. I made eye contact with that guy.

[Quickly. Bounce. Uh. Wow. f*ck.]

As if she was sure that I would notice, she must have opened her mouth like that.

It seems like I screamed so loud that the veins in my neck came up.
