Chapter 67 Eighth Champion (2)
2.
Kwaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!
Ibella, who was thrown into a corner, continued to vomit blood. It was a result of her taking Albaric’s ax in defense of Noah.
“Cluck, cluck!”
Blood flowing from the nose and mouth.
That’s not all. It felt like all the bones in my body were crushed as I was caught in the shock wave.
‘I shouldn’t fall like this… … .’
We must protect Noah.
So I tried to maintain consciousness, but even that wasn’t easy. As I gradually lost consciousness, a sudden warmth enveloped my body.
Saaaaa!
A softly sparkling light.
Then, my consciousness, which had become increasingly blurred, returned little by little. When my blurry vision became clear, I soon saw a familiar face.
“Laurea… … ?”
“oh! “Are you out of your mind?”
Turquoise hair and amber eyes.
Saint, Laurea Lo Charpel.
While reciting a prayer for healing, she found Ibella with her eyes half open and spoke to her.
“First of all, all the broken parts have healed. Are there any other painful areas?”
“Hmm, I think so.”
Ibella nodded silently.
Just a moment ago, the pain was enough to make me lose consciousness, but now all the pain has disappeared as if it were a lie. Probably thanks to the divine healing spell.
“Ibella!”
Then, suddenly, someone came out of nowhere and hugged Ibella’s body.
Noah, the black-haired girl. She kept muttering in relief in a tearful voice.
“Wow, I’m glad you’re safe.”
“Yeah, I was lucky.”
Ibella smiled slightly.
I really thought it was all over now, but I never thought I would get this kind of help.
“Anyway, Laurea came… … .”
It must mean that Ulan has also come.
Ibella reflexively looked around. But Ulan was nowhere to be seen, and that was when she tilted her puzzled face.
Laurea spoke up.
“Are you looking for Ulan by any chance?”
“Uh, but I can’t see it. where are you?”
“We don’t know either.”
“… … what?”
What does this mean all of a sudden?
They disappeared together and I don’t know where Ulan is. When Bella asked this blankly, Laurea shrugged her shoulders in response.
“They were together and then suddenly disappeared.”
“Disappearing? Where?”
“Oh, you don’t have to worry. Because he disappeared with the white wolf.”
The moment the existence of the white wolf was mentioned.
Ibella reflexively sighed in relief. If so, it would mean that you are not caught up in something dangerous.
“So, once the business is over, I think I’ll join you here soon.”
After Laurea’s guess was over, Ibella silently nodded. As the conversation was coming to an end, a familiar voice knocked on my ear.
“Well, by the way.”
Paladin, Ian Marcus.
Ian, who was standing at the front with a sacred shield in front of him, pointed to the giants on whom Delia was continuously pouring magic and asked.
“Is that by any chance the Giant King?”
“No, I am a member of the Giant King’s family.”
“… … yes?”
Ian answers with a surprised face.
He wasn’t the only one who was embarrassed. Sven, who was preparing to attack next to him, also reacted in shock.
“A monster like that is just one of your family members?”
Ian and Sven.
As strong masters, they felt it instinctively the moment they saw Albaric. That giant is a monster much stronger than the combined strength of the two.
So, I thought it was Largtan, the Giant King, one of the Lords of the Abyss, but I was naturally surprised when I got the answer that it was just one of his descendants.
On the other hand, unlike the two’s reactions, Laurea’s reaction was calm. Laurea, in particular, shrugged his shoulders and asked what was so surprising.
“Why are you reacting like that? Just by looking at it, it looks similar to Asteban’s family.”
“No, that’s true, but… … .”
Still, there was a feeling of intimidation that was a little different from the Asteban family members he had previously dealt with.
The moment Ian trailed off.
Noah, who had been quiet, joined the conversation.
“Strictly speaking, it’s a little different.”
“huh? “How is it different?”
“In the original work, Albaric was said to be as strong as the twelve clans of Asteban combined.”
Starting with those words, Noah briefly explained about Albaric, the leader of the assault force. Then the faces of the group quickly turned dark.

“Woah, Ulan also had a hard time?!”
“It was like that. Oh, of course, Ulan back then was not as strong as it is now.”
“No matter what… … .”
No way, this is an opponent that Ulan will struggle with.
Ian slumped his shoulders, his confidence drastically diminishing. Sven also scratched her head as if he was annoyed.
“Then what should I do?”
“Shouldn’t we wait for Ulan to come?”
“But do you know when it will come?”
“that… … .”
Perticia closes her mouth as if speechless.
Then Noah shook his head.
“No, you don’t have to wait for Ulan.”
“huh? That means… … ?”
“It means that we gathered here are enough to deal with them.”
After answering, Noah smiled.
It was a smile full of confidence. On the other hand, Sven countered as if asking what he was talking about.
“It’s different from before. “I said earlier that only Ulan can deal with that monster?”
“Yes, I did. But that only applies to the ‘original work.’”
The Ulan of the original is optimized for dealing with giants, so much so that he was once called ‘giant slayer’ instead of his name.
However, that doesn’t mean that you can’t deal with the giants without Ulan. That’s why Noah continued speaking with his eyes sparkling.
“Currently, you have taken the challenge and passed it much earlier than the original. In other words, it has become stronger than it appeared in the original.”
Six warriors who passed the ordeal.
One more thing here. There is a reason why Albaric can be dealt with only with the current number of personnel.
“I know Albaric’s weakness.”
“… … !”
The point is that Noah is a player.
She has played the original game hundreds of times, and although she has not been able to subdue the Abyss itself, she has annihilated the Giant King’s army several times.
Of course, it was a great achievement thanks to the use of the seven warriors at the right time, but in any case, he knew the strategy to deal with Albaric.
“Does that guy have a weakness?”
“Uh, what kind of weakness is it?”
“If you cut or break its head, it will die.”
“… … “Isn’t that the same for people?”
Sven mutters in an absurd tone.
At his reaction, Noah scratched his head with an awkward expression, as if he had forgotten to say something.
“Ah, what I just said was a subjugation strategy against the giants. “The giants can only be eliminated by smashing their heads.”
The giants have a total of four hearts.
Even if you are lucky enough to break three hearts, they will regenerate quickly unless you break the other hearts.
Therefore, it was clear that it would be better to cut off the head than to aim for the heart.
“Albarik’s real weakness is something else. “It does not lead to immediate death, but it is a fatal vital point that can temporarily incapacitate.”
“Where?”
“The left eye.”
An immediate reply without hesitation.
Sven looked straight at Albaric.
“Eyes covered by that blindfold?”
“Yes, if you attack there, it will go into a groggy state for a while, and then you can just smash its head.”
“what? It’s surprisingly simple, isn’t it?”
“It’s simple. But the problem is that it is quite difficult to attack.”
The pupil beyond one eye. While Albaric’s vital points were clearly visible, it was difficult to hit them.
First of all, moving to his head was fraught with considerable risk. Albaric won’t wait patiently until then.
However, there was nothing to worry about.
“But if it’s Sven, it’s probably possible.”
“… … “How can you be sure of that?”
“That’s because I know Sven’s skills. “I believe it will be possible if we distract Albaric and create a gap.”
A hunter who has reached the level of master.
Sven Isaac, who appears in the original work, uses the area in a slightly special way. This is a method of assigning a territory to each arrow.
Of course, it is not something that can be used often, but if you use it well, you will be able to squeeze in an opportunity and deal a critical blow to Albaric.
“Okay, I understand. “I’ll give it a try.”
Sven, who was fully expecting Noah, hesitated for a moment and then nodded. As if he realized that only he could do it.
“great. Well, first of all… … .”
After obtaining Sven’s consent, Noah explained the strategy he had just thought of to the group. Finally, as the explanation was coming to an end, an urgent voice was heard.
“Anything, it’s good, so if there is a plan, hurry up and get ready! “There is now a limit to what can be suppressed!”
It was the voice of Delia, who was suppressing Albaric with cluster magic. Shortly after her warning ended, her magic techniques were destroyed all at once.
Kwasik! Paaaaaa!
A technique that scatters starlight into fragments.
Soon after, Albaric, who had been suppressed by magic until now, let out the anger he had been suppressing all along.
【No such thing as a mortal—!】
A roar that echoes through the cave.
Noah’s cry continued with him.
“Then let’s all move to our respective locations!”
“Yes, got it!”
“I will follow your instructions.”
After each answer, the warriors quickly moved to the positions designated by Noah.
A descendant of the giant king, Largtan. It was to fight against the assault leader Albaric.

Meanwhile, at that time.
Fragments of light pouring down like countless stars.
Ulan calmly watched Kazan’s last appearance. On the other hand, the white wolf that was with him was circling around the spot where Kazan had been just a moment ago, and could hardly take her feet off her feet.
[Whine! Wow… … .]
That would be natural. To him, Kazan is his old master whom he met after over a thousand years.
Moreover, if you take into account all the times that were repeated over and over again, it is literally like having a brief reunion and then breaking up after eons.
Ulan also seemed to understand the white wolf’s feelings and stood there for a while waiting for him.
About that time had passed.
Only after all the scattered fragments of light from Kazan’s body disappeared did the white tiger take a step forward.
However, as if he still had some lingering regret, he looked back at the place where Kazan was. At that moment, Ulan, who had been silent until now, opened her mouth.
“Now let’s go back.”
Kazan achieved his purpose and disappeared.
Above all, he would not want the white wolf to spend time tied up in a place like this. Therefore, Ulan looked at the white wolf and continued speaking.
“We still have work left to do.”
Inheriting Kazan’s will.
Furthermore, to win against the abyss.
To achieve this, there is no time to waste time in places like this. This was enough time for mourning, so Ulan turned around.
The white wolf, who was silently looking up at him, also seemed to understand Ulan’s words and walked straight to stand next to Ulan.
[Awww!]
A roar that continues at the same time.
As soon as the long, sad-sounding crying stopped, a hazy fog covered the hall.
It was a fog created by a white tiger.
After a while, the fog that was blocking my eyes cleared and the surrounding scenery changed.
“This place… … .”
It was a familiar space.
The place where I stayed with the other party members before meeting Kazan Rudrik by the white wolf. The mural painted on the wall was proof of that.
“I don’t think there are any other guys.”
It looks like he moved first.
Or, he may be wandering around trying to find himself who suddenly disappeared. Around the time these speculations were going on.
[Grung! purr!]
Suddenly, the white wolf patted his body.
The guy next points to the bottom of the mural. As if telling him to look there, Ulan squatted down and looked at the floor beneath the mural.
After that, my eyes widened.
“This… … .”
What was written there was a short message.
Judging by the round handwriting, it is presumed that Delia left it behind. Ulan read the message in one go without hesitation.
After a while, he tilted his head.
“Hmm? “Noah was attacked and you moved first to help?”
It was natural to have doubts.
Because most enemies would not be a match for Noah and Ibella. Above all, there are two divine beasts there with the power of a master.
‘And yet you chose to join… … .’
This could be interpreted as an attack by an enemy that would be difficult to deal with with just the relevant troops.
Immediately after realizing this.
Ulan’s expression hardened.
“Could it be Largtan?”
Or maybe it’s his family.
A powerful enemy who has fought and won victory over and over again in his past life. A giant warrior who boasts the strongest military power among Largtan’s descendants.
“… … Albaric.”
If this guy attacked, Noah and Ibella alone would never be able to deal with it. That was when Ulan frowned at this.
Cuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu!
Suddenly, a loud roar followed by a significant vibration shook the entire space. At the sudden phenomenon, Ulan immediately looked back at the white wolf and said:
“Guide me to where the other guys are.”
Ulan instinctively realized this.
That the situation is going unusually well.
Meanwhile, the white wolf began to sniff and find its way. Then, as soon as he got his bearings, he kicked the ground.
[Grunt!]
A tail waving as if telling me to follow.
Ulan followed behind the white wolf and crossed the darkness at high speed. The epicenter of the roar and vibration. Toward the battlefield where his comrades are.
