I Can See Your Code

I see your code (152)

Kugugugung!

The elves who were pitching the tent and the elves who were shoveling all looked back.

A huge sinkhole that suddenly appeared. A little far from there, the candidate of the saint stood blankly with a bewildered face.

Ramuses quickly approached the party.

“What the hell is going on?”

“I don’t know either… … .”

Arina managed to come to her senses and said.

“I think I found the queen ant.”

“… … The queen ant?”

Ramuses was perplexed for a moment.

Now that I can’t even find the entrance, what kind of queen Taryeong is all of a sudden?

But Arina nodded her head softly.

“The queen came in saying that it was hers, so don’t touch it. Probably right.”

“… … You must be mistaking something. How can you find out where the queen ant is up here?”

“It will not be an illusion. I’ve done that a few times before.”

“… … .”

Ramuses closed his eyes for a moment to organize his thoughts, then turned around and approached the sinkhole.

I thought it would be good to check it out for yourself without needing to talk about it here.

And then immediately when I looked down.

“Well… … .”

Ramuses let out a small moan.

I don’t know how they found out, but really, there were ants several times larger than normal under them.

Besides, I can feel the tremendous energy even from such a distant place. It was definitely the queen.

At that moment, Arina, who was approaching the sinkhole, pointed to the figure facing him and said,

“The queen said that Lian-sama will kill them, so if you only kill the soldier ants that come nearby… … .”

“Sorry, Madame, we are not going down.”

Ramuses stopped talking and answered calmly. Arina had a puzzled expression on her face.

“Why is that?”

“The status of a queen is much higher than I expected. If that’s the case, I’d say it’s at the top of the 2nd class. It’s not something we can defeat with all our might right now.”

“But then, Rihanna… … !”

“Unfortunately, this is the path you have chosen. The process was very clumsy, though.”

As if everything he had been friendly with so far had been fake, Ramuses said with a cold face. Arina saw him and bit her teeth tightly.

“If Rian-sama died like that, the World Tree would not be able to be saved.”

“You are referring to the soil that contains the energy that is the source or the soul. There is a workaround for that.”

“… … what is that?”

Ramuses shrugged and answered.

“Didn’t he buy you about a year’s time? It means that you have the opportunity to experiment with this and that. Then, all you have to do is dig this soil and then put the flesh of the world tree in it.”

I’m really serious about letting it go. After hearing Ramuses’ answer, Arina made her decision. She said, glaring at the elves who were already staring at her as if it was something else.

“like. If you don’t want to go down, just do whatever you want. I will go alone.”

“I’m sorry, but he can’t allow that either.”

At that, Arina raised her eyes.

“Do I look like someone who has to take your permission?”

“I don’t mean that. However, isn’t that the status of being able to move at will?”

“It’s useless if you’re trying to bring up the story of a saint. I’m still just a candidate, so there are no restrictions.”

“It’s just a nominal candidate. In fact, it’s almost like it’s confirmed, isn’t it? And we also have a mission to protect her.”

“… … What does that mean?”

There is no such duty for elves. Because he hasn’t been officially invited yet, and Kitan, given by humans, is literally just a god of humans.

Ramuses said with a slight smile.

“We cannot rule out the possibility that even at least one of our schools sent the saint as a scapegoat.”

“… … Why on earth would you do such a thing in Kitanism?”

“Isn’t this supposed to be used as a spark for war? Now that the empire has fallen, the unity of different races can be irritating. At that time, it would be a good excuse to hear that the saint candidate sent to the elves has died.”

Arina screamed in annoyance.

“Don’t be ridiculous! Whether it’s Calpheon or Argon, can’t we afford to fight again now… … .”

“I think so too, but… … I am in a position to prepare for the worst case for our people.”

While saying that, Ramuses sneaked in front of Arina.

“Therefore, the saint, you only need to finish the preparations here to pray for her well-being.”

Is there anyone who will come down?

I looked at the hole high into the sky and pulled out the sword from my waist.

It is somewhat of an expected result. Actually, if you think about it coolly, it’s better for them to just leave it alone.

Besides, I am not of the same race as them in the first place. It is said that there is no need to make a fuss about the need to save a colleague.

Well, there seems to be another reason aside from that.

I gave up hope early and looked forward.

[MON-2-19-3]

Even without looking at the code, it was clear that she was the queen.

In the theme of ants, it is large enough to be equivalent to a five-story building. Countless workers and soldiers surrounding it. Last but not least, the boat that popped out.

If you don’t recognize that figure, you’ll have to pluck out your eyes. Or do brainwashing.

I pointed my sword at the queen and said,

“Do you have any plans to fight me one-on-one? Still, they are your children, so you don’t want to sacrifice them in vain.”

―Giriririk!

He doesn’t have the talent to understand the ant’s words, but it’s probably a sign of rejection. As soon as the queen roared, the soldiers rushed in.

I sighed and faced him.

“You haven’t met proper parents either.”

Kuwagwagwang!

As soon as I finished my words, a wave of giant ants hit me. Hundreds of monsters, each the size of a small building. My body was quickly buried in it.

But for a while.

spatula.

I swung my sword carelessly and dismantled him all. There were rare 3rd grades, but most of them were 4th grade at best.

In fact, it was not at a level where I could inflict damage even if I was only wearing a defense with my psychic power. Maybe it’s just that Queek can give you a little bit of energy? That is enough to recover with just a few breaths.

“Are you going to start after all your children here are dead? I am confident that I will be fine.”

The queen looked a little perplexed. I guess I didn’t know that I could kill my children so easily.

Well, after all, this is just a guess. Just as I don’t have the talent to understand the ant’s words, I also don’t have the talent to recognize the ant’s expression.

Still, my guess is probably correct.

The guy immediately bit the remaining workers through the hole behind him.

“… … I don’t think it’s another thing to treat it like a consumable item. I’m envious. I was immediately abandoned by my companions.”

While speaking casually on the outside, he gathered all the energy inside.

Now, it was certain that the Queen was going to come out on her own, and I didn’t want to look down on her status.

But what happened after that was beyond my expectations.

― Crumpled… … .

The queen took a step back, and the workers who had disappeared before appeared with something shiny.

They were items that were traded expensively among humans, such as gold or shards.

I said in a rare sense of embarrassment.

“… … Are you trying to negotiate with me right now?”

– Kirik. Kirik.

nod his head I guess my guess was true.

“No, I knew that he had considerable intelligence by writing it down in the settings, but I didn’t expect something like this again… … .”

– Chirik?

This time, he tilts his head. It was a gesture of not understanding what he was saying.

As soon as the steam was gone, he sighed and stowed his weapon.

“I didn’t mean to ask you to understand, so that’s okay. More than that, you don’t need them, so just leave them alone. Even if you go to the smallest of the storehouses, you can get a hundred times more of that.”

– Chirik?

“Do you mean, then, what do you want?”

– Kirik.

“that… … In fact, you just need to dig in a little soil. I’m really sorry that I caused trouble.”

– Kirik.

“Are you glad that our misunderstandings have been resolved? You are a very open-minded person.”

– Crackle.

After making a dramatic compromise with the queen of ants, I dug up a portion of the land containing the psychic powers and put it in Sheba.

Then, after looking at the hole in the top for a moment, he turned his gaze towards him.

“If it’s okay with you, can I ask you one more thing?”

– Cricket rick.

Unlike before, only the antennae are nodding.

I looked at the queen like that, and said bluntly.

“I’m sorry, but I want you to die for a moment.”

“… … Isn’t it too quiet downstairs?”

An elf who was observing what was happening said in a puzzled voice.

“Obviously, now is the right time for all the roars to spread. But except for one battle, it was completely silent.”

“It must be dead already.”

The other elf said indifferently. However, the elf who was continuing the story shook his head.

“Did you forget that he defeated the strongest warrior of our kind in a single moment? No matter how much a second-class opponent was, he couldn’t have died so quickly.”

Everyone in the party nodded in agreement with that statement. Second, the reason that the other person doesn’t like it is because he was acknowledging only one skill in his heart.

Ramuses, who was standing in the way of Arina, who seemed to attack at any moment, obediently agreed.

“It sure is strange. But what are you staring at?”

“Yes? What do you mean… … .”

Ramuses frowned at the stupid reply.

“Can’t we just go and check the below? Do I have to give instructions for each of these things?”

“Oh, no. I’ll go check it out right away.”

The sad impression that had been up until this point seemed to have completely disappeared, but the elf quickly approached the hole without thinking at all strangely.

And after a while. As he looked down at it, he vomited out astonishment as if he had witnessed an unbelievable sight.

“That… … !”

“what happened?”

There was no answer to the question either. Because the elf was still looking down the hole with a blank face. Ramuses urged once more in a slightly annoyed tone.

“I asked what was going on.”

“that is… … .”

The elf, who seemed to have come to his senses just then, raised his head. And he muttered in a muffled voice.

“That man… … It seems that I have succeeded in defeating the Queen.”
