Journey To The Central Continent! Part Two

1   Back when Wolly and Luvicer were fighting Ediya and Motar.   "Luvicer, you face that mage, I will face that female knight." Wolly ran to direct the attack at Ediya.   “You have killed our comrades! I will avenge them!" Ediya shouted in response to Wolly's attack. The two of them clashed swords and looked quite fierce. Ediya didn't use her lightning magic anymore because she realized it was a waste of time. After all, Wolly would always break her magic.   “How can you use magic without chanting a word? I only heard rumors that there were only a few people who could do that, but I didn't expect that the demon race could do that." Motar was in a position to attack.   “It's not important, why are you doing this!? Why are you guys looting and trying to harm small children!? Luvicer, with fire magic surrounding him, was ready to launch an attack.   “Hurt a child? It seems you misunderstood. We may be bandits, but we will never hurt women, children, and the elderly." Motar looked confused and answered Luvicer's question.   "But-" When Luvicer was about to speak, suddenly an explosion was seen from under the sea. Ice was seen scattered across the surrounding area. Seawater wets the ice layer on the surface. Cracks in the ice were visible.   Something was visible behind the fog caused by the explosion. Everyone fell silent and watched the shadow. A silhouette that looks very large and has wings on both sides.   “It's a Dragon! Ice Dragon! Everyone run!" One of the bandits shouted and ran, making everyone around panic and run too.   Hard, scaly skin of bluish-purple color, has four legs and two wings. It was very clear that the creature was a dragon. However, parts of the dragon's body have ice that looks like body armor.   “Impossible..." Luvicer was shocked.   “Damn, this is very dangerous. I didn't think that this was the time." Motar ran in the direction the ice dragon was, and Luvicer followed him   “Damn, this is very dangerous. I didn't think that this was the time." Motar ran in the direction the ice dragon was, and Luvicer followed him.   “Do you know about the shooting star incident?" Motar asked Luvicer.   “Yes, I know that, but I don't know what happened," Luvicer answered.   “Everyone in the Edinburgh Empire doesn't know what happened, but since then, many monsters have come down from Mount Jeevan and roamed throughout the world," Motar explained.   Luvicer and Motar ran together towards the ice dragon. They no longer cared about the conflict they had endured before. Their current focus is only on the ice dragon because it is one of the most dangerous monsters. They realized that where the ice dragon was, their respective friends, Wolly and Ediya, were fighting each other.   “Is that a dragon?" Wolly saw a dragon for the first time. Previously, he could only see dragons from fictional stories in her previous life. But now in front of him was a real dragon.   “What!?" Ediya was shocked.   “Get out of there!" Ediya shouted after seeing the ice dragon right in front of Wolly.   The air became cold and thin. The ice dragon spat out ice breath that was so cold that it froze anyone it hit.   “Can I hold it?" Wolly thought about blocking the ice dragon's breath. He assumed that the ice breath might have been the same as magic, which she could break i “Divine Protector!" Unexpectedly, someone came quickly to block the ice dragon's breath attack using a shield.   “Mister Dwargo?" Right in front of Wolly, Dwargo used his shield as protection to withstand the attack from the ice dragon. In his right hand, he held a large hammer.   “Just call me Dwargo. Little girl, please attack the tail if you can!" Dwargo gave Wolly an order, and Wolly quickly carried it out as Dwargo faced the ice dragon directly from the front.   “Ediya! Are you okay?" Arche also came and immediately approached Ediya, his body looking covered in wounds.   “Arche!? How did you get here? your body..." Ediya was shocked to see Arche, who approached Ediya with his body covered in wounds.   “My condition is not important; what's more important is, can you help them?" Arche begged Ediya.   “Why should I help them!? Just let them be. We'd better get out of here immediately." Ediya disagreed with Arche.   “Ediya, if Master Tark were here, he would help them." Arche tried to convince Ediya.   “Okay! OK!" Ediya listened to Arche's words and immediately helped.   Ediya launched her lightning attack towards the ice dragon's head.   “Hey, the little girl in armor, you'd better help attack the tail of this ice dragon. Let me draw attention from the front." Dwargo gave orders to Ediya.   “Only Master Tark has the right to give me orders! Hmmp!" Ediya compulsively complied with Dwargo's orders.   “Arche, let me heal you.” Motar and Luvicer arrived at the scene and immediately cast healing magic on the injured Arche.   “Were you hit by an attack from that ice dragon?" Luvicer asked while thinking about how to deal with the ice dragon.   “No, my condition is like this because of fighting with him," Arche answered and pointed at Dwar, who was blocking the attack from the ice dragon.   “Let me help." Luvicer also helped heal Arche's wounds with healing magic.   “This is the first time I've seen a demon able to perform healing magic." Motar was surprised to see Luvicer's magic.   “I can only do the basics. More importantly, we have to help them immediately." Luvicer said.   “I'll help too," said Arche.   “You just recovered," Motar said.   “Don't worry; I'm fine. I should help rather than stand idly by watching you fight the ice dragon," Arche said.  Listen to me, according to the book I read, ice dragons can only be defeated with high-level fire magic. I'm sorry, but I can only use elementary-level magic. So this will be very difficult." Luvicer explained.   “There is someone who could use it..But I don't want to hope that he will come soon. I can only use ice and water magic. Do you have a plan?” Motar said while looking at Luvicer.   “I have a plan, but it's quite risky. Please listen to me," then Luvicer explained his plan to overcome the Ice Dragon.
2   “I didn't expect that I would fight a dragon. It seems like my journey in this world is not as normal as before." Wolly was attacking the dragon's tail, but the tail was hard enough to hit.   Ice dragons are very large, look like small moving hills, and have quite strong defenses. The ice dragon emits cold air around its body, which makes it difficult for anyone to approach it because it is very cold.   “Hey! You attack the right side, I will attack the left side." Ediya ordered Wolly.   Wolly just obeyed Ediya's words because she didn't know anything about this world, especially about monsters. She didn't want to take risks by acting recklessly without direction.   The Ice Dragon realized that its tail was being attacked. Then the dragon raised its tail high and hit the ground with it so that several parts of the ground cracked. Wolly and Ediya have to avoid it because the impact is very big if it hits them both. They took a few steps back before making another attack.   “It looks like our attack didn't wo,k," Ediya said just as she stopped attacking.   “Then what should we do?" Wolly also stopped her attack.   Not long after that, fire magic was seen right above the dragon. Luvicer tries to attack the ice dragon using his fire magic. Even though he can only use basic-level magic, Luvicer's magic is different from most people's. He could use basic-level magic on a large scale.   “Ice floor!" Motar shouted, releasing his ice magic which made the ground freeze, and then the ice spread towards the dragon's feet so that the ice dragon couldn't move at all.   “Everyone listen to me! Attack the dragon right now!" Luvicer shouted to tell everyone.   Luvicer's fire magic shot quickly towards the dragon's body. Then the dragon was hit so it fell and couldn't move because its legs were frozen by the motor's ice magic. With such an opportunity, Wolly, Ediya, Arche, and Dwargo launched a full attack simultaneously. Their attacks had quite an impact on the Ice Dragon. The ice armor protecting the dragon was partially shattered and cracked from the simultaneous attacks.   “Everyone! Please immediately run behind me!” Dwargo shouted.   Everyone looked confused but immediately ran quickly towards the back of Dwargo.   “What happened?" Luvicer asked Dwargo followed by other expressions that also felt confused.   “My ancestors once faced an ice dragon. I read in a written record that when the dragon felt pain, it would release a very deadly ice storm. Don't worry, I will hold it back." Dwargo spoke confidently.   “Divine protector! High shield! Defense up!” Dwargo chanted some of his defensive magic.   A few moments later, the ice dragon screamed so loudly that it made the people around it cover their ears. The scream was intimidating enough to make the people who heard it give up. The other bandits had already left the place. Wolly, Luvicer, Dwargo, Ediya, Motar, and Arche were the ones fighting the ice dragon.   Then the ice dragon released an ice storm from all over its body. He also spewed an ice storm through his mouth, which aimed right at Dwargo, who was defending. While the others took cover right behind the Dwargo.   “Ha ha ha ha. You won't be able to destroy my defense, damn lizard!" Dwargo looked as strong as he could withstand the ice storm released by the ice dragon while the others were amazed to see Dwargo's action.   “That guy is so strong! I see him like a Viking in a movie who has a very high fighting spirit. I don't know if there are Vikings in this world. If there are, he must be one of them." Wolly muttered in his mind while watching Dwargo's actions.   “Boom!" Suddenly, flames shot out from the sky very quickly and hit the ice dragon. Tark was seen using his sword with huge flames around his body, which caused the ice dragon to be affected by the attack.   “Master Tark!” Ediya, Arche, and Mortar screamed after seeing Tark.   “Good job, Fire Boy!" As seen above Grisyela is in an attacking pose with her big axe.   “Grisyela!” Shouted Wolly and Luvicer. While Dwargo smiled seeing the two of them appear.   Grisyela shot down from the sky by launching an attack using her large axe which aimed straight at the ice dragon's neck. Grisyela, in her normal mode, launched an attack with all her might using only one hand.   The Ice Dragon was forced to fall underground due to the pressure from Grisyela's attack, causing the surface of the ice to crumble and seawater to gush out from under the very thick layer of ice. The ice dragon fell into the sea and sank completely.   The other people felt relieved after seeing Grisyela succeed in sinking the ice dragon so they screamed and cheered. Wolly was just silent and seemed to be smiling. However, Grisyela and Dwargo looked worried from the looks on their faces.   “So there are still strong humans who can challenge the power of the Demi-God." A terrifying voice echoed around, confusing the people around.   “Who is that!?" Tark shouted. The others also still looked confused, except for Dwargo and Grisyela who currently looked angry.   “Everything! Run behind me! Hurry!" Dwargo shouted very loudly and sounded very panicked. Because it was not normal for Dwargo to look panicked like that. He was the most relaxed before.   “Do you think I'll let you?” Suddenly from the sea, an ice dragon shot out above the surface and flew into the sky. Many chunks of ice could be seen suddenly appearing around the ice dragon. It seems that the dragon can use magic to make these chunks of ice appear. In a language he couldn't understand, he launched an attack so fast that people couldn't dodge the attack without having time to take cover behind the Dwargo defenses.   “Ediya! Ediya!" Motar shouted after seeing Ediya hit by an ice chunk from the ice dragon.   Ediya lay weak, covered in blood on the right side of her body. Fresh red blood oozed out of her armor.   “Ediya, hold on!" Motar quickly used his healing magic. Meanwhile, Wolly, who was near Ediya, fell to the ground and continued to stare at Ediya's body which was hit by the attack.   “Why is this happening?" Wolly, in his mind, thought back to her life in the previous world. She had lost someone right next to him many times while climbing Mount Everest. She had seen people lose their lives on that mountain many times. She couldn't do anything. Nothing happened when an incident like that happened. Even though she was there, a feeling of guilt always haunted her when she experienced something like that, but she couldn't do anything even though she felt strong enough to help people around. But this time she felt that feeling for the first time since being reborn.   “Wolly! Wolly!” Luvicer shouted while holding Wolly's shoulders. Then Wolly regained consciousness.   “Are you okay?” Luvicer asked.   “Yes, I'm fine now. Sorry." Wolly replied.   “BOOM!” Grisyela is seen being thrown by the ice dragon's attack to where Wolly is.   “Grisyela!” Wolly and Luvicer shouted.   “Wolly, Luvicer, get ready. What we are facing is no ordinary ice dragon." Grisyela stood up again and stretched her body.   “You're right! Hahahaha I never thought I would come face to face with a Demi-God's pet.” Dwargo suddenly joined the conversation.   “You know too?" asked Grisyela. Then Dwargo nodded his head.   “So Demi-Gods are real? I thought it was just a rumor." Luvicer asked.   “Luvicer you once said that Mount Jeevan is divided into four parts. One of them is the Demi-God area. Are they the ones you are referring to?" Wolly asked.   “Most likely yes, because I am unsure if they exist. I just think that the area is just a place that humans cannot reach.”Luvicer answered.   “Hahaha. You must know about the rumor of the spring at the peak, right? I think that it was Demi-God's men who spread the rumor. I don't care about the rumor. I only have one goal. To find my family on Mount Jeevan." Dwargo spoke with a relaxed face unlike before. Now he felt more relaxed and could continue the fight seriously.   “So you also want to go to Mount Jeevan?" asked Grisyela.   “Yes!” Dwargo answered.   “You better come with us. Before that, we'd better finish off that Ice Dragon!" Grisyela transformed into her battle mode. With her hair turning fire-red and her entire body surrounded by blazing flames.   “Wolly, come with me! Luvicer, you help the injured person. You, do as you please!" Grisyela pointed at Ediya, who was lying face down. There, Motar and Arche were seen saving Ediya. Then she talked to Dwargo then ran with Wolly to attack the ice dragon.   “Wait, I'll fight too!" Dwargo ran after Wolly and Grisyela.
3   “Divine Fire!" Tark alone fought the Ice dragon which continuously launched ice magic attacks.   “You are so brave to face me alone. Because of your courage, I will give you a gift." The Ice Dragon was seen flying and releasing ice magic containing huge chunks of ice. The chunks of ice slid quickly to attack Tark.   “Fire slash!" Tark launched an attack using his sword. The attack hit several chunks of ice from the magic released by the ice dragon. Tark ran around avoiding the attacks of the chunks of ice while attacking back.   Tark tried to find an opening to attack the ice dragon's body, but it was out of Tark's range because the dragon was flying in the sky, so it was impossible to carry out close-range attacks.   Suddenly the ice dragon descended to the ground and threw out a powerful wind so that objects around it were thrown randomly. Tark took cover with his sword to avoid randomly thrown objects and tried to keep an eye on the ice dragon's next movements.   “I appreciate your resilience until now. From now on, I will be more serious," said the ice dragon, then it roared very loudly and suddenly released an ice storm from its mouth.   “Oh no! I can't avoid it." Tark felt unable to avoid the sudden attack from the ice dragon so he just tried to block the ice storm with his sword and fire magic.   An ice storm hit Tark who was defending using his sword. Luckily, because he was a fire magic user, he could withstand the coldness of the ice with his fire magic. But slowly, his fire magic was unable to fight the coldness of the dragon's ice magic. Tark had lost a lot of energy since the fight with Grisyela. Finally, he froze in a defensive pose using his sword.   “Looks like we're late," Wolly said. Wolly and Grisyela stood right in front of Tark who was frozen.   Grisyela is in combat mode, holding Tark's body which was frozen due to the ice dragon's ice storm attack. Slowly, the ice began to melt until finally, Tark regained consciousness. But he was still too weak to continue the fight. He lay limp on the ground, looking up at the sky. He looked at Wolly and Grisyela's faces.   “Good job, fire boy! Leave this to me," said Grisyela with a pose ready to fight.   Slowly Tark's vision began to blur. After that, he lost consciousness and fell asleep due to exhaustion.   “How are we going to defeat the ice dragon?" Wolly asked because he had no experience fighting very large monsters like dragons. Wolly, Grisyela, and Dwargo were right in front of the ice dragon.   “We just need to attack him and kill him." Grisyela smiled.   “Ha ha ha. We don't have a plan." Dwargo laughed.   The three of them started launching attacks on the ice dragon. Dwargo attacks the front, and Grisyela and Wolly attack the sides simultaneously.   “Divine hammer!” Dwargo hit the air using a hammer that he held with his right hand. The hammer hit the air, but when the hammer hit the air, which looked transparent, a boom could be heard around the air, and a bright colored light was formed due to the impact of Dwargo's hammer on the air. The impact was very strong, causing the ground around it to crack along with very strong winds, causing the Ice Dragon to be hit by attacks from the front, especially its head. The ice dragon felt pain and dizziness due to Dwargo's attack.   “Ha ha ha." Grisyela laughed then threw an attack using her big axe. The ax emitted a fire so hot that the ice dragon's ice armor was destroyed instantly. Grisyela's attack was able to penetrate the ice dragon's thick skin. So the ice dragon felt really hurt from the attack.   “Ugh... the skin is so hard!" Wolly, with her Zweihander sword, attacked the side of the dragon's body. Wolly stabbed the dragon's body very hard because the thickness of the skin meant that Wolly needed extra energy to launch the attack. After stabbing, Wolly launched an attack from within with slashed the sword out of the dragon's body so that the dragon's blood came out from the part that Wolly attacked.   “Damn Human!! Arghhhh!!.” The ice dragon screamed in pain.   “Quickly run behind me!" Dwargo shouted.   “Hey! Come here quickly!" Dwargo shouted at Grisyela who just stood there.   “No need," Grisyela answered casually.   As before, the ice dragon was in pain and released a powerful ice storm. He also released an ice breath that attacked directly towards Wolly, Dwargo, and Grisyela.   “She's so crazy!” Dwargo watched Grisyela casually take the ice dragon's attack without being affected.   Grisyela's fire burned so strongly that the ice from the ice dragon melted when it hit Grisyela.   “Impossible!" The ice dragon saw Grisyela standing completely unharmed after receiving the attack.   “It looks like I underestimated humans too much. OK, human, I admit that you are very strong. Instead, I will tell you who I am. At least you have to know who is going to kill you, " said the dragon. The ice dragon stood up again after the attack. You could see that the ice armor on several parts of its body was slowly appearing again, and all the wounds on its body disappeared instantly.   “Is he recovering? "This is not what I know," said Dwargo.   “Be careful, he's not just an ordinary ice dragon," Grisyela warned.   “I am Sepen. In the name of my master, Diavolo, I will end all of your lives!!" The Ice Dragon gave his name. At the same time, he attacked with his very sharp and cold claws. Grisyela managed to avoid it and Dwargo also managed to block the attack using his shield. While Wolly was behind Dwargo, waiting for an opening to attack.   “Diavolo?? I think I've heard of it. But I don't care. I'll make you into a roasted lizard!!" Grisyela smiled widely as if she had no pressure when facing the Ice Dragon.   Wolly thought about how she would attack the ice dragon. Because right now she didn't have any information or strategy to launch an attack. She chose to wait and not do anything reckless because she could be killed.   “Hey!" Luvicer shouted from a distance. He was with Motar, Arche, and Ediya who was being carried on Arche's back. Ediya had recovered from her wounds but was still weak and not wearing her armor.   “Master Tark!" After seeing Tark lying down, Motar immediately approached him.   “He's fine. He's just sleeping right now." Wolly was near Tark.   “I think you all should take him away from this place and give him treatment." Dwargo looked at Motar, Arche, and Ediya. Then Motar carried the unconscious Tark along with Arche and Rdiya away from the place.   “Wolly, how are things here?” Luvicer asked.   “We managed to injure the dragon, but he managed to recover quickly," Wolly replied.   “He can talk and it seems like he has a master. I never knew there was an ice dragon like that, but he is not an ordinary monster." Dwargo also told Luvicer.   “He can talk!? I didn't expect them to still exist. I once read a book in the library explaining the many races when the Demon race still ruled over part of this world. It seems like the ice dragon is a Demi-Human race." Luvicer explained as he watched Grisyela who was dodging the Ice Dragon's claw attack.   “So how do we defeat the ice dragon?" Wolly asked.   “Killing him is the only way, but it is very difficult because he has a very fast recovery," Dwargo replied. It was seen that Luvicer was trying to think of a plan to kill the ice dragon.   “I want to try something. I need your help." Luvicer looked at Wolly and Dwargo.
4   In their first fight, Wolly, Luvicer, Grisyela, and Dwargo did not have any trouble working together. Especially Wolly who knew she had no experience fighting against very strong monsters. Previously she had only fought with wild animals and weak monsters. This time it was her first time facing a very strong and very large monster. The Ice Dragon was as big as a hill. But Wolly did not feel hopeless when facing a very strong monster. She believed that strong people surrounded her. As long as she followed the directions of her friends and did not act recklessly, she was sure she could defeat the strong monster.   "Get out of there!" Luvicer shouted at Grisyela who was avoiding the ice dragon's attack. Then Grisyela quickly moved away from the ice dragon.   “I don't know if this will work or not. But I have to try it. According to Margaret's words, if you feel you are not yet able to use magic without chanting words, it is better to use short words so that failure does not occur." Luvicer remembered Margaret's words when Margaret taught Luvicer magic. Because of that, Luvicer tried a plan that he thought of.   “Gravity Falls!" Luvicer used dark magic on a very large scale. He used some of the Mana in his body to use high-level magic. For the first time in his entire life, he used top-level magic. Moreover, the compatibility of the Mana he had with dark magic types made the magic he released get bigger and stronger.   Very strong gravitational magic makes anyone in the area feel a very heavy gravitational pressure so that no one can move from that area. The ice dragon was hit by the attack and immediately couldn't move because it felt an incredibly strong pressure. Slowly, the ice dragon was unable to withstand the pressure, so its entire body fell to the ground and couldn't move at all.   “Arghhhhhh!! Damn human!" The dragon looked very stressed by Luvicer's magic.   “Attack now!" Luvicer shouted, signaling to attack the ice dragon, but he got up immediately.   "Wolly! aim for the neck!" Grisyela shouted at Wolly.   “Divine power! Dwargo uses his magic which makes Wolly and Grisyela strong for a while. A bright golden light hit Wolly and Grisyela for a few moments.   Wolly and Grisyela simultaneously aimed for the ice dragon's neck to launch an attack. Wolly with his Zweihander sword, while Grisyela with a large flaming axe, easily separated the ice dragon's head from its body. Blood splattered everywhere, and the ice dragon's body lay on the frozen ocean surface.   "Did we succeed?" With his body weakened due to using up some of the Mana, Luvicer asked Dwargo who was beside him..   “Yes, the dragon was successfully killed. I didn't expect the two of them to be that strong Ha Ha Ha Ha. Even though I didn't give them any strength-enhancing magic, it seems like they could kill the dragon easily," Dwargo answered with a laugh.   Meanwhile, it looks like Grisyela has returned to normal mode. The flames covering her body had disappeared and her hair had returned to its usual color. Wolly looks sweaty but there are no signs of fatigue because she has always maintained her stamina and physical fitness.   “Ugh, it seems like I underestimate humans. I didn't expect anyone to be able to cut the neck of a very tough ice dragon." A person was seen coming out of the body of the lying ice dragon. The person's shadow came out through the upper body where the dragon's head and body were separated. That person had a very big silhouette twice the size of an adult man.   Wolly, Luvicer, and Dwargo were shocked when they heard the sound and saw the person's silhouette. While Grisyela looks relaxed with a serious look.   “Looks like I really can't let all of you live after seeing me in my true form." Very burly body with a body full of muscles that looks very well maintained. The upper clothes look minimal, but the shoulders, elbows, and gloves are covered in silver armor, which looks very luxurious. His lower half was covered in armor pants and dark blue leather shoes making him look even more intimidating. What was even more surprising was that he had a dragon head and it was clear that he was not human.   “Demi-Human!?” Luvicer was shocked.   “Hahaha, I haven't seen a Demi-Human in a long time." Dwargo laughed.   “You will often meet them when climbing Mount Jeevan. You should use this opportunity to measure your true abilities. Because you will face them more often," said Grisyela, smiling broadly while looking seriously at Wolly.   “Wow, I'm surprised that there's a race like that here too. But what Grisyela said was very true. I don't know what I will face in the future on Mount Jeevan, but what is certain is that I will face very difficult obstacles. I will try to use my abilities as a result of my training so far." After listening to Grisyela's words, Wolly tried to think more calmly and tried to bring out her best abilities.
5   “Are you crazy? Me against this little kid? I admit she is strong, but she is not a threat to me. OK, I'll face you one by one starting with this little girl." Sepen, who is a Dragon race belonging to the Demi-Human race, feels that he is much stronger than all the humans he is currently facing.   “We have to fight it together. There was no way Wolly could match him. From physical size alone, they are very different. What's more, what he's facing isn't human." Luvicer tries to convince them to fight against the Demi-Human race together.   “No need. Let her deal with it. You should understand how strong she is." Grisyela stopped Luvicer.   “Ha ha ha. I'm very curious." Dwargo laughed.   After that Wolly stepped forward to prepare to fight against Sepen. Sepen uses a sword as his weapon and of course, he has ice magic that he can use along with his sword. Meanwhile, Grisyela, Luvicer, and Dwargo observed from a distance.   "I'll finish this quickly." Sepen darted and launched an attack aimed at Wolly's neck using his sword. He shot so fast that his footing cracked due to the pressure he exerted to speed up his attack.   “Focus, I have to focus. Remember the training that I have done so far. I have to focus. I have been waiting for a long time for the opportunity to be able to travel to Mount Jeevan. If I fail here, everything will be in vain. I have to stay focused." Wolly closed her eyes trying to focus on this duel. She knew that if she lost, her journey would be over. Therefore, she tried to stay focused to bring out her best abilities so as not to fail in this duel. Of course, since she was little, she had countless times dueled with Edward, but this time it was a real duel. A duel between life and death.   The sound of swords clashing was very loud. Wolly parried the attack using her Zweihander sword while Sepen attacked Wolly using a sword that was at least two meters long with a handle made of dragon bone and a navy blue blade.   Wolly successfully parried each attack by struggling to withstand the pressure of the load released by Sepen's attack. With every step, Sepen showered Wolly with very fast attacks. Sepen seemed to swing his sword so easily even though the sword was very heavy and he could swing it using only one hand. Slashes from the front, side, top, and bottom have been done by Sepen. However, Wolly always managed to ward off the attack.   Their fight produced a strong wind around them, so ice dust flakes were seen scattered around their fighting area. Every attack made by Sepen could only be blocked by Wolly without fighting back. Wolly was still waiting for the right time to launch a counterattack.   Even though she was continuously attacked, Wolly didn't feel any difficulty or fatigue compared to Sepen who was starting to feel annoyed and tired because all Wolly did was defend.   “I admit you are strong enough to withstand my attack. But how long can you hold it? Is that all you can do!?” Sepen tried to provoke Wolly but Wolly didn't listen and only focused on blocking Sepen's attacks.   This time, with her small body, Wolly ducked to avoid a jumping attack to the side and quickly launched a counterattack that aimed straight at Sepen's body. Because of the speed of Wolly's counterattack, Sepen was shocked, so he couldn't defend or avoid the attack. Wolly managed to land an attack that injured Sepen's body. However, the wound was not enough to weaken Sepen.   “Damn! Heal." Sepen stepped back to avoid Wolly's next attack. He didn't expect Wolly to injure him. He held the wound using his hand, then a sea blue light appeared around his hand and the wound. The wound was seen slowly closing until there was no scar at all. Sepen managed to recover himself using his magic.   “He can use healing magic? No wonder he can heal himself when he becomes an ice dragon. Looks like Wolly is really fighting a very strong enemy." Luvicer watched the fight with his clothes from a distance.   “Hahaha, what a troublesome opponent." Dwargo laughed.   “It didn't matter to her. The enemy underestimated her too much." Grisyela smiled.   Wolly is very focused right now. She doesn't think about anything other than the current fight. Her concentration is very different from that of most people. Her previous life experience enables her to concentrate fully and focus on facing the problems in front of her easily. Concentration and focus are very much needed when becoming a mountain climber to face problems and take the right steps so that nothing unwanted happens.   Wolly held her Zweihander sword using both hands in a position ready to launch an attack. By leaning her sword forward, she focused on finding a gap in Sepen's defense, who was preparing to attack again.   They both launched attacks simultaneously. But quickly, Wolly managed to avoid Sepen's attack, so Wolly's next move was to attack from the side. But Wolly's attack was blocked by Sepen's sword. Sepen's sword seemed to freeze, emitting. Very cold ice slowly spread to hit Wolly's sword. Quickly, Wolly pulled her sword so that it would not freeze along with Sepen's sword. Wolly took another step back before launching another attack. At the same time, Sepen was in a position ready to attack with his sword, which looked frozen, and his body began to emit cold smoke and small chunks of ice floating around him.   “Ice spears!" Sepen used his magic to turn the ice chunks into small ice spears that floated around his body in quite large numbers.   With a very fast movement, Sepen tried to land an attack targeting Wolly's neck. Sepen shot along with the floating ice spear to attack Wolly. Sepen planned to overwhelm Wolly with a fast attack in large numbers. He hoped that the ice spear attack would hit Wolly partially so that Wolly would be injured and lose focus so that he could immediately attack Wolly's neck.   The sound of the sword slashing against the ice spears was heard loudly. Wolly easily slashed and destroyed the ice spears. With agile and flexible movements, Wolly slashed all of Sepen's ice spear magic. This time Sepen used more power to attack Wolly. After Wolly managed to slash all of the ice spears, Sepen quickly launched his attack using his sword with both hands. Sepen attacked Wolly from a distance using his ice magic slashes.   “Ice Slash!" The ice magic in the Sepen sword merged into a very fast long-range attack aimed at Wolly's neck.   Wolly kept running towards Sepen even though in front of her was Sepen's ice magic attack, she didn't slow down at all. Holding her sword with both hands, she just removed the ice magic from in front of her using the back of her Zweihander sword. She kept darting quickly to launch an attack.   “No way!" Sepen was shocked by what Wolly did.   Wolly, with a fast, deadly attack, slashed his sword straight at Sepen's neck, but Sepen responded quickly and managed to dodge. But Wolly managed to slash Sepen's left arm so that his left arm was separated from his body.   “Argh! Heal." Sepen was in pain after losing his left arm. He quickly tried to stop the bleeding using recovery magic through his right hand. Sepen also tried to regenerate his left arm but failed.   “Ha ha ha. I didn't expect her to be that strong." Dwargo laughed from a distance.   “I still can't believe she's that strong. I thought she was only good at fighting monsters, but she could win against Demi-Humans. So far I've only seen her fight against monsters and didn't expect her strength to be so strong." Luvicer was surprised because Wolly could win against Demi-Humans, a race that has five times more strength than humans.   Sepen did not expect it because he lost one of his arms due to fighting with a human. He did not think that there was a human who could beat him in a one-on-one fight. He stood back up after stopping the bleeding on his left arm. Then he held his sword using his right hand and prepared to launch an attack. He posed in a position ready to attack. The entire atmosphere around him became very cold. Cold wind and ice began to surround his body. His sword seemed to attract the cold and ice energy around him. He was gathering magic energy to carry out a potent attack.   Sepen concentrated fully, focusing all his ice magic on his sword. His sword slowly changed color to a very bright blue and ice dust surrounded the sword. Strong wind pressure surrounded Sepen, making the scenery look like it was covered by very thick ice. Suddenly, the storm stopped, and the atmosphere became calm. However, it was clear that Sepen's sword was covered by such strong ice magic that when he held it, his hand froze and became one with it.   “Ice sword!" Sepen shot out quickly to attack Wolly.   Wolly stood still, focused on launching a counterattack, when Sepen attacked. He held his sword with both hands in a position as if he wanted to stab the target. Sepen quickly slashed Wolly using his Ice Sword. Then Wolly blocked the attack using his sword. The sound of swords clashing was very loud. The ice that covered Sepen's ice sword was instantly shattered into ice dust that flew in the wind. Sepen was shocked because his ice magic, which he thought was so strong, could be destroyed just like that. Wolly quickly turned around and slashed Sepen's neck.   “It's impossible---" Sepen's head was separated from his body. Before losing consciousness completely, he saw Wolly standing straight without receiving the slightest injury. Finally, Sepen's head, which was separated from his body, lay on the ground.
6   Wolly easily beats Sepen without getting the slightest injury. She realized that the opponents She was fighting were not as strong as Margaret and Eward when they trained together.   "Hey!" Luvicer, with Grisyela and Dwargo, approached Wolly.   The four of them laughed together after successfully defeating their opponent. You can see the body of the ice dragon and Sepen's body still lying on the ground. Slowly people started approaching the place. The merchants and the ship crew, along with the injured bandits, approached Wolly and the others.   “Listen to me, everyone! You can all take the materials from this Ice Dragon's body. I want you to distribute them evenly to each group, including the bandits." Grisyela spoke loudly to all the people around her. The bandits looked down and felt guilty but then Wolly, Luvicer, and Dwargo reassured them.   “I'm very sorry about everything that happened. I, as the responsible one, am ready to accept all punishments!" Tark prostrated himself to apologize for the actions committed by the Bandits so far. Likewise, the bandits followed Tark and prostrated themselves to apologize.   After that, the bandits, Merchants, and ship crews worked together to collect the materials contained in the bodies of the dead ice dragons. These materials will be sold when they arrive in the port city. Meanwhile, Grisyela, Wolly, Luvicer, and Dwargo sank Sepen's body into the seabed and paid their last respects.   The body parts of the ice dragon that can be consumed are processed into food on the spot and will be eaten together before they continue their journey to the port city.   “Take this." Dwargo gave Wolly grilled iced dragon meat that had been topped with barbeque sauce.   “Are these edible? I didn't expect there would be a day when I ate a dragon. But earlier, I saw Dwargo and the others preparing dragon meat, making me feel hungry. Like I have to try it." Wolly was doubtful about dragon meat because this was the first time he had eaten dragon meat. The dragon meat was marinated in salt and ground paprika given by a group of traders. Dwargo cooked it using the slow-cooking method so that the meat wouldn't become tough. Because if it were burned directly, using magic, the ivory would become tough to eat. Coincidentally, Dwargo has a record of how to process any dragon meat. Likely, his ancestors often consumed dragon meat.   “This is delicious!" Wolly and the others tasted the deliciousness of dragon meat after a tiring fight. The four of them ate together with the bandit group, especially Tark, Ediya, Arche, and Motar.   “So what are you going to do after this?" Grisyela asked Tark the leader of the bandit group.   “I've been planning to try being a climber for a long time. Maybe I'll sign up to be a Climber. But I have something to do first in the area east of Edinburgh.”Tark answered.   “Oh, eastern area huh? Can I ask for help? Please give this ring to someone named Eze. I would be very grateful if you were willing." Grisyela asked Tark for help.   “Of course I can. Where do you guys want to go?" Tark turned to answer.   “Mount Jevan." Wolly, Luvicer, Grisyela, and Dwargo answered simultaneously.   “I want to find my family on Mount Jeevan," Dwargo added.   “Are you all Climbers?” Tark asked a question.   “Of course not," Luvicer said.   “So you guys don't know, huh?" Tark asked.   “Since the shooting star incident, anyone who wants to go to Mount Jeevan must have proof of a climber's license. Even merchants must have one. Because Mount Jeevan is not just any ordinary place where people can go." Arche explained, followed by everyone listening seriously.“Everything has changed. Now anyone can become a Climber by passing the licensing exam. Coincidentally, Porta Town is the place to register and take the Climber license exam. You should follow it first if you don't want to be stopped when you want to enter the Mount Jeevan area." Additional explanation from Tark.   “I'm curious, what is your purpose in going to Mount Jeevan? You guys don't seem like a group of people who want to make a living as Climbers." Tark asked curiously the head of Wolly and his group.   “I want to go to the top of Mount Jeevan," Wolly said casually, followed by Luvicer who held his head, looking dizzy. Grisyela smiled and Dwargo laughed while the Bandit group looked surprised.   “What!?” Tark and the other bandits were shocked.   “That's so crazy! Do you also want to get the rumored spring water??" Tark was surprised and asked the question.   “No, I just want to go to the top of Mount Jeevan. He won't understand if I explain about my desire to reach the top of Mount Jeevan." Wolly answered casually and thought there was no need to explain further about the goal.   All the bandits were shocked to hear Wolly's words. While the others laughed together.   That night, after successfully defeating the Ice Dragon and Sepen, they all partied until they finally fell asleep at midnight. It was a cold night, but for those who fell asleep, it was one of their best nights. They fell asleep without any burden or fear. Everyone fell asleep in their warm tents until the sun rose.   “When morning arrived, the group of merchants and ship crews first left for Porta Town. They brought some of the ice dragon materials, which would be sold after arriving there. Meanwhile, the bandit group had already left before sunrise and headed to the east. Wolly and his group started to leave for the Town port several hours after the group of merchants and ship crews left.   "It seems we have to take an exam to get a climber's license so that we can enter the Mount Jeevan area. According to what the bandits said, the exam is divided into three stages. A magic and Mana test to determine the level of ability, a strength test, and the last is a test while traveling from Porta Town towards the imperial capital, Edina. The north gate of Edida is the entrance to the Jeevan Mountain area." Luvicer explained while reading a note he had jotted down while the bandits were explaining.   “The test doesn't seem too complicated. But can I do it? Because I don't have any Mana at all, I doubt I can pass the first test." Wolly nodded looking a little pessimistic.   “Don’t worry,. It seems like the first test is just to measure the ability level. Because of what Tark said, Climbers will be divided into several ranks." Luvicer tried to calm Wolly.   “Grisyela, are you okay if people recognize you as the former queen of Edinburgh?" Luvicer asked Grisyela.   “Of course, I won't use my real name Hahaha. Moreover, it seems like no one knows about the changes that have happened to me." Grisyela answered casually. Grisyela's current appearance is very different from her appearance when she was still a Queen. It seemed like no one would recognize him at all. Moreover, currently, she only has one arm. So, of course, no one will recognize her.   “Oh, so you are the famous former Queen of Edinburgh, huh? Hahaha, no wonder you are so strong." Dwargo laughed.   “So you want to find your family, Mr. Dwargo?" Wolly asked.   “There's no need to be so formal. Just call my name, hahaha. Yes, I want to find my children. I haven't seen them for decades. After my wife passed away, I decided to tell them the news by myself," Dwargo explained.   The dwarven race is one of the races that has a long lifespan. It is unsurprising to meet them at an age of hundreds of years. Their race is a fighting race. They are a very free race that has no leader or master. They are free to choose their path in life. Many of them become mercenaries because they like to fight. But there are also those among them who isolate themselves and stay away from the fight, including Dwargo, one of them.   "Thank you for agreeing to join us on this journey." Wolly bowed his head as a sign of thanks.   “It's no problem. What's more, I won't feel alone if I'm with all of you hahaha." Dwargo laughed.   The four of them laughed together. On the way to Porta Town, the journey is not long enough to reach the main port which is usually where large ships dock, but currently it is just a port filled with ice because this winter can always freeze the seawater. There were only a few more hours until the four of them arrived at Porta Town.   Wolly felt like she was enjoying the journey she was on. Even though she didn't expect to experience a fight so quickly, Wolly had calculated that sooner or later she would have to fight considering that the world she was in now was a fantasy world filled with things that didn't exist in her previous world. With joy in her heart, she couldn't wait to climb Mount Jeevan, Wolly continued to walk with her friends in the cold of this winter.
7   From a distance, during the fight between Wolly and Sepen, a shadowy figure of a dragon can be seen flying, and someone on the dragon's back watches the fight between the two from a distance with a sharp gaze.   “Oh? It turns out they succeeded in making Sepen show his true form, Hahaha." The dragon figure spoke in a ridiculous tone.   “Hmmm..." Someone on the dragon's back was silent and looked a little annoyed.   The two of them continued to observe the fight until finally they saw Sepen, who was about to duel with Wolly. They were both silent and couldn't say anything when they saw Sepen as if he were being played by a girl. They refrained from interfering in the duel and continued to observe.   Until finally they were shocked when they saw Wolly succeed in slashing Sepen's left hand. They watched with annoyance because they felt embarrassed to see Sepen so easily rendered helpless. Seeing Sepen issue his final attack made them hope that this would end soon and that Sepen would succeed in winning this duel. After that, they intended to help Sepen kill the remaining people, but something surprising happened to them.   Sepen stopped just as they were observing. They were very surprised because Sepen had been defeated by a girl. Moreover, the child did not receive any injuries at all as a result of the duel with Sepen.   "I'm very upset! But we'd better get out of here and report to Mr. Diavolo what happened." They both left the place without a trace. On land, Grisyela realized that someone was watching her, but didn't pay attention to it.
