Episode 308 Chapter 56: Exchange Student (4)

Exchange Student (4)

Yeondurimsawol was one of the Twelve Gods with no physical form.

While most of them took the form of bipedal species with hands and feet like humans, elves, and dwarves, she chose no form at all.

"This must be so boring〜"

Scarlett, dressed in brown hiking pants, hiking boots, a jungle hat, and a dark brown backpack, deliberately sweated profusely as she climbed the mountain.

From the radio at her waist, a song popular fifty years ago was playing, and in her right hand, she held an adjustable hiking pole favored by older men.

She looked like a professional hiker to anyone, but her appearance, resembling a high school student with pure white hair, made her seem quite out of place.

Instead, she looked like a cute, mischievous girl who had stolen her father's clothes.

"Oh, I'm so tired~ When will you answer me? Huh? Stop doing this〜"

Boom...!!

As Scarlett struggled up the mountain, continually talking to thin air, the mountain suddenly shook, and a rock began to tremble and fall.

"Oh my! It's dangerous!"

Clinging exaggeratedly to the cliffside, the rock narrowly missed her and tumbled down below.

"Sister, I almost died. Can't we stop these pranks? Huh?"

Boom!!

This time, dozens of rocks came tumbling down like rain. Scarlett, looking a bit frightened, laughed awkwardly.

"Ah, sorry."

Bang!!

A tremendous noise rang out, enough to collapse the entire ground, and after a while.

"Cough...!"

Sticking her head out from the pile of rocks, Scarlett brushed off her dirt-covered clothes and screamed.

"Ahhh! I lost my jungle hat!"

Miraculously, the jungle hat fell in front of her.

"Oh."

Grabbing it and putting it on her head, a shadow was cast over Scarlett.

Looking up, she saw a man with green hair smiling down at her.

"Witch Queen. Our master doesn't want to meet you."

"Huh? Why not?"

"Because you secretly tried to steal the Root of Life. Master's barely restraining himself from overturning this entire mountain since many lives have settled here."

(TL: not sure whether the gender is male or female....we'll see later I guess)

"Gasp. Then I'm currently holding a hostage situation?"

"Exactly. But if he gets really angry, he might bury you underground along with the hostages."

"Oh, I know she wouldn't. Yeondurimsawol values life so much that she hasn't even killed a single ant."

The man simply smiled quietly without answering.

"Oh, kid. How about you pass on my message?"

"Speak. She's listening."

"Hey~ I didn't steal the Root of Life, I just borrowed it temporarily. Isn't it too harsh to be so cold......"

Boom!!
