I’d heard that there were monsters that are attracted to particularly shiny jewels, but now that I looked at them, they seemed to be fascinated by all of them.
Could it be that these two had been hiding their jewels as a hideout here? These guys, now that I saw it, were really rich!
It was so dark that it was hard to tell in detail, but from a rough estimate, this space seemed very large. And jewels were packed to the end of the invisible wall. If these were all jewels, Popo and Griffin would be richer than my father.
“Oh my lord.”
How would it feel to be buried in a jewel mountain? I decided to forget my dignity as a human being for a moment. When else would I be able to lie on a jewel mountain?
“Hey, you guys are amazing! You’re awesome! The best!”
We were playing like such young children, while I felt overwhelmed by the sensation of jewels bouncing around. As I slid down the most curved part like a sled, I found a huge gem right at my feet.
What was this? A jewel I didn’t know about?
It looked bigger than my fist.
In addition, in this darkness, it was shining a golden bright, enough to be seen clearly.
It was then that the golden gem slowly began to rise into the air. It had a shape that was close to a sphere, but there was something unusual about the center…No, it would be right to say that the buried jewel mountain began to rise. As it rose higher and higher, countless jewels cascaded down.
Only the golden jewels kept rising up.
It took a long time to realize that they were eyes, not jewels. The eyes of powerful creatures that I had never met or imagined meeting.
It seemed right to say that when a person encountered a phenomenon that deviated from his or her common sense, when he or she dared to confront or experienced the fear of something invincible, he or she just stayed put.
Before leaving Romagna, I remembered a book I had read for reference.
Unlike the intellectual, arrogant, and defiled images encountered in the media from my previous life, ‘he’ was close to being the top predator among the monsters, endangered by the stigma of being Satan’s servant.
It was said that he last appeared in the North decades ago.
But…

The rain that had stopped for a while began to pour again.
As they passed through the deepest part of the forest and the border, the underground tunnels dug by the rats and webs set up by the spiders prevented the smooth expedition.
The dreary cries of the frost wolf in all directions added on to it.
“Sir.”
Izek stopped and looked back at his companions who followed. There were only six elite men, including himself, Ivan and Galar– those who were able to withstand and could be trusted within a high-risk zone. Andymion, of course, was an exception. Izek couldn’t understand why the coward wanted to keep up with them, but he decided to let it slide.
If anything happens, Galar would take care of it. He was his brother.
“Are you serious? The crazy woman said…”
There was a lack of clues. Everything was not logical in the first place. It was unsure how the poacher had escaped the border area alone. The half-deaf poacher claimed that the raccoon monster ate all her friends and threw her to the spot where she was found.
