A member of the Star Seekers, Marlon of the Ice Wall.

The skill possessed is ‘ice and snow swimming.’

His ability to create and control autonomously acting ice clones that resembled himself was his talent.

The ice clone’s ability grew stronger in proportion to the user’s ability.

So, ‘ice and snow swimming’ was the best skill for the strong, but a skill that was inferior to the general skill for the weak.

This was because it was a skill that doubled the user’s own combat power.

Therefore, this ‘ice and snow walk’ was useless to Marlon. It was because the body was not very capable.

All I can do is make ice and use it as a shield. That’s why the nickname ‘Marlon of the Ice Wall’ was given sarcastically.

And now that ‘Mallon of the Ice Wall’ is,

“older brother! Wife! Please save me!”

I was lying flat and begging.

“What is it, this child?”

Jain muttered as if he was absurd. So far, I’ve defeated two Star Seekers, but this was the first time this has happened. Contrary to Jain’s expectation that of course they would attack, Marlon, who had followed Jain and Ren all the way to the square, immediately fell flat on his face and began to pray.

“Please, hand over the essence of the advanced demon that won the bid! I will give you an example!”

Similarly, Ren, who was preparing for battle, was stunned. Perhaps it was because Ren thought there was more to rub against than Zain, and Marlon looked at Ren and rubbed his hands with tears like chicken dung. It was quite funny because his grumpy face was crying.

“Without it, I die! Not only me, but she will die too! Beautiful lady, please have mercy on me. I’ll do whatever it takes to make a case. please… ”

“Sir, madam?”

Ren’s face turned red. Ren stared at Marlon, who was clinging to him for a moment, as if embarrassed, patted Jain on the shoulder and said.

“First, let’s hear the story. From what I’m talking about, I don’t think he’s a bad person.”

“Well… ”

“Beautiful and kind lady! Please tell the West well!”

“yes? You can listen to the story. I’m begging you like this… ”

“I am. If you live so naively, you won’t live long.”

He was the one who said that, but he was already preparing to listen to Ren’s suggestion. Even to Jain, Malone was strange. It was because it was said that he had no unique skills. And, a clear state abnormality was also found. It was discovered that the soul had been subjected to a very high level of enchantment magic, and was in a state of captivity of the soul. This guy, like Rosalind, seemed to have suffered some kind of trickery.

“Then, let’s talk.”

“Oh, are you listening to me? I will treat you as my older brother for the rest of my life.”

“I don’t need it, bastard.”

Marlon shrieked as he lightly fed the honey chestnut. Then, I got down on my knees and started talking. It was difficult to understand because of the stuttering, but I could understand the content.

“He’s like an asshole. You are deceived.”

Jain, who had heard the whole story, hardened his face and said. Malone looked furious for a moment at the words, but was suppressed in one single blow.

“What, are you trying to open up?”

“No, no! It’s just that I couldn’t control my facial expressions a bit!”

It’s so rough, that people misunderstand people just by making a slight impression, Marlon said with tears in his eyes. It certainly looked like it would be difficult to live life.

The content of the story Malone told was simple. Malone was feeling the pressure of being the Star Seekers. Because he knew he was not capable. Nevertheless, because of his position, he was forced to inherit the family even though he was the second son.

So, as soon as I assumed the position of successor, I became separated from all the other brothers, and a lot of gossip circulated because of this face. While living like that, by chance, I met a woman who understood me. That woman, incidentally, was a demon. After hearing all of her stories, she made recommendations.

“Then why don’t you run away with me?”

If we become demons and escape from our family, the heir of the family will return to our older brother, and we can live happily ever after… It was something like that.

“So, I thought it would be good for everyone to disappear, so I won the Essence and tried to escape. That woman is still waiting for me in the woods. So, please… ”

“I still haven’t come to my senses.”

Jain asked while shaking his head.

“So, what’s that girl’s name?”

“girl name… what.”

Malone looked confused. It was because he couldn’t remember his name, as if he had erased it with an eraser.

“What do you look like?”

“very… It was beautiful. By the way, I think well… ”

“Can’t you remember?”

Malone nodded. Jain pulled the middle finger as far as possible to make a seal. It was the seal of magic to remove status ailments. Then Marlon screamed and fell backwards, then slowly stood up after a while. It was like being drunk and waking up.

“Brother, what did you just do to me… ”

“You have dispelled the enchantment magic that has been on your mind.”

“hawk… Fascination?”

“Oh, you asshole. You were so enchanted that you almost gave your liver and gallbladder to the demons.”

“No, that’s ridiculous!”

Malone’s face turned white in denial. But Jain’s voice was cold.

“Then try casting your unique skill, Ice-Snow Swimming.”

Malone quietly tried to comply with Jain’s request. However, the skill he had been with for half his life did not activate.

“Aren’t you a pig?”

“Wait a minute, just give me a little more time!”

“I can’t, lad. That’s proof. That b*tch approached you for your skills and your body, and stole your skills.”

“Well, that’s absurd.”

Malone collapsed with the horse. It was because he had an intuition that Jain was right. Tears were running down my eyes again. The sight of a grown man lying on the floor and crying in vain was sympathetic. Ren looked at him and said, gently pulling the hem of Zain’s robe.

“This person doesn’t look like a bad person from the root. Can’t you help… ”

“Do, if you can help, aren’t you a member of the Crooks Cult?”

Marlon opened his eyes wide and asked. Jain took out the ID card Nora gave him from his pocket and said. It was a brass identification plate given only to those who perform duties under the direct control of the guild master. On its surface, the pattern of the branches of Rotern’s holy tree was clearly engraved.

“We are people sent by the Guild Master. Aside from you, several other youngsters called Star Seekers have lost their minds because they have been enslaved by demons, so we were investigating the case.”

Hearing those words, Marlon hardened his face. This time, extreme anxiety filled his face. If it was discovered that he had voluntarily participated in the auction of the Crooks Cult and plotted a human betrayal, it would have been detrimental to the entire family of Marlon. Jain, who read the concern, put the ID card back in and spoke bluntly.

“Don’t worry, I’ll give you a good report, so please guide me. To the place where the year awaits.”

“Is that true?”

“Then, do you want me to lie?”

“no! Thank you, I will treat you as an older brother for the rest of my life!”

Malone nodded and said. Jain asked with a questionable look.

“How old are you?”

“I am 18 years old!”

He is said to be 18 years old, but his face looked much older than Jain, who was in his early to mid 20s. Jain, who naturally developed sympathy, stopped questioning and patted Marlon on the back. This era was an era in which identity was important in its own way. There’s nothing wrong with having a takka from a noble family. Such a thought justified Jain’s pity.

“Yeah, yeah, I got it. So, guide me.”

“yep!”

Malone replied sternly and started walking ahead. The destination was far. Even in the old town, it was a forest, a virgin forest, that could only be reached through an abandoned sewer.

*

After a long time passing through the primeval forest, where the trees were thick like a cave, we finally arrived at an empty lot.

There, a woman with long pink hair was waiting for Marlon. Jain and Ren hid behind a tree first, and Marlon was sent to the woman alone.

“Ah, West. You are finally here.”

“I have obtained the essence as promised.”

Marlon groaned and walked over to the woman. Jain clicked his tongue. At best, I had let go of the fascination, but the moment I saw that woman’s face, it seemed that I was fascinated again.

“Good job, my lord… ”

The pink-haired woman hugged Marlon tightly as if she would not let go. And as she wiped her back with her bewitching fingers, she whispered in her ear.

“Sir, then, I have something I want to ask you.”

“what! I’ll listen to anything!”

“really? Can you swear?”

“then!”

“Then, please.”

The eyes of the woman who embraced Marlon suddenly turned black. It said in a voice that suddenly ripped.

“Please be my food.”

At the same time as those words, the woman’s body ripped apart like a mouth. The cracked surface was densely packed with delicate teeth like those of a balloon eel.

“Hey!”

Marlon was terrified and tried to pull himself away, but it was already attacking Marlon with its mouth wide open.

“Look, I told you I was deceived.”

And Marlon, who had closed his eyes, opened his eyes by hanging in the air. The one who jumped in, grabbed the nape of his neck and escaped. Malone looked up at Jain, crying like chicken poop.

“older brother! You are my brother too!”

It was as if they had formed a brother-in-law a long time ago. Jain ignored it and looked at the monster that revealed its true nature and said.

“It’s just the pistil of a flower.”

And, he made the seal of Bahumet’s Hellfire. The fireball that flew away from Jain’s hand burned a large tree behind the woman, completely annihilating it. Then the true identity of the monster was revealed.

“Hey, what is that flower?”

Behind her, a huge flower rose as if piercing the sky. What I thought was a woman was nothing more than a pistil that came out of the flower.

“That’s the cannibal flower Laplus.”

The devil’s flower that seduces and swallows men, the man-eating flower Laplus. Originally, as a challenge, flowers that only appeared in the last half of the Demon Continent were nesting in Rotern for some reason. When that flower blooms, it spores over, turning hundreds of kilometers around it into a land of death. And now, Laplus appeared to be on the verge of flowering.

‘Perhaps if this guy had been stupidly eaten, he would have bloomed right away.’

Jain thought, throwing Malone to safety. Her eyes twinkled white as she was reading Laplus’ information. That Laplus was different from general Laplus. He had one more pistil made of ice.

“Ice and Snow Swimming, you robbed me, already.”

Jain smiled so that his teeth were exposed, and pulled out a slasher.

“Where, let’s see how good the day is.”

Ren stood next to Zain with a nervous expression. On Jain’s neck, a golden snake was flashing.
