Episode 12. tribe (4)
Not long after, a comment appeared.
[Corrupt Power Knight: I’ve seen it a few times. It may be a bit burdensome at levels 1 and 2, but it’s not a big deal once you reach level 3 or higher. They move around in groups, but their numbers are small and they are hard to see. Since they are pagans who worship other gods, they do not like us as paladins, so there is a high probability that we will fight if we encounter them.]
ㄴ [Have you ever killed someone?]
ㄴ [Corrupt Power Knight: Since it is not a monster like a devil or an infectious agent, I will not kill it even if I encounter it. It feels uncomfortable. Killing them doesn’t increase your experience much. If you think he’s being too aggressive, I’ll scold him appropriately.]
Fallen Power Knight. This is a user I have seen a few times. You can trust me because I am a person who writes mainly about information.
The second comment was posted immediately.
[Samurai Jackson: Savage. These are people who sometimes appear as NPCs in games.
If it’s a warrior class, is it a bit stronger than a normal infectious agent? Although we have come to this world with its own special privileges, we are not barbarians.
Priests use magic-like powers, but the casting time is longer and the power is not as powerful as the skills we use.
Some entities are so strong that you wonder if they are the same human being, but that is a unique case. Anyway, there’s nothing special, so you don’t have to worry too much.]
Samurai Jackson. This is a user with a dual sword fetish that has existed since the beginning of the community.
Surviving for a long time means being strong. This person is also trustworthy.
So, if you roughly put it together, it’s not a very threatening entity, but is it a little annoying that it attacks first?
It’s exactly what I expected. There are no twists.
I asked two people the same question.
ㄴ [Have you ever seen the loa they serve?]
ㄴ [Corrupted Power Knight: Loa? Oh, the ones that only appeared in that game setting? no? I’ve seen statues made by barbarians, but they were literally just statues. I don’t feel any special power or anything. Why is that?]
ㄴ [Just in case. Answer!]
I don’t know about this one.
ㄴ [Samurai Jackson: Every time we fight, the barbarians always say that Loa will take revenge and that Loa will be cursed, but there hasn’t been any particular curse or revenge so far. To me, it’s just folk religion or voodoo. It’s not a real supernatural being like the goddess who (probably) called us here.]
ㄳㄳ!]
I don’t know this either. You don’t even know if Loa actually exists.
It may be true that Paaya said that no Loa other than me has come down to earth.
It’s not that I don’t believe Paaya, but she has only been in a small tribe in this high mountain until now. Even if you think you are telling the truth, it may not be true, so cross-verification was necessary.
after. I guess I might be a bit of a genius for a nerd.
Anyway, the probability that I am the only Loa in this world has increased. I couldn’t believe it, but I was really the only loa.
This could be good news or bad news.
The good thing is that there is no information about Loa, so there is no one to keep me in check, and the bad thing is that I cannot receive help from other Loa (possessed or real).
“It’s almost time for raspberries to ripen. It bloomed a lot. Oh, this is the food I ate a lot with Chief Kanto.”
– Ohh.
“Raspberries are good. “I think it would be nice to take some and give it to the kids.”
Kanto responded to Paya’s words with a chuckle.
“I’ll take care of it.”
Paya took out a leather bag and picked some raspberries.
If you look at it this way, they are very ordinary natives of a very ordinary mountain.
“It came down a lot, so it might come out soon. “I will go quietly.”
Paya nodded and silenced her footsteps as Kanto looked around.
I opened my eyes wide (even though they weren’t mine) and concentrated.
Not long after, a strange crying sound was heard.
A cry mixed with a wolf’s growl and the sound of a patient’s phlegm boiling.
They were visible through Paya’s vision. This is my first time seeing an infectious agent in person.
What it looked like was a bit scary. A wolf with mushroom spores all over its body.
There are about 15 of these guys.
Kanto, who was hiding in the bushes, directed the warriors with hand gestures.
Paya is waiting with two warriors at the very back to ensure safety.
One of the warriors who exchanged glances with Kanto approaches them with a low crawl.
Even though she is short and skinny, she gives off the aura of a strong woman, perhaps because of her venomous eyes.
“Hiyat!”
The warrior slowly crawled, then suddenly stood up and threw his spear at the body of the largest individual.
Phew! A spear pierces the body of an infected person who appears to be the leader wolf, accompanied by a shouting sound.
“now!”
Kanto charges in, swinging a double-edged axe, and the warriors follow, screaming.
“Ugh-!”
Kanto literally butchered them, and even after cutting through the bones and flesh of the infected body in one go, he immediately plunged the ax into the next one.
It feels like a very strong lumberjack cutting down a tree with a single stroke of an axe. And that too in succession.
Strength and speed that make you wonder if it’s human. It was enough to send a shiver down my spine as I watched it.
Even though you’re this strong, it’s hard to take down a low-level demon by yourself.
What happened to the balance of this crazy world?
“Huh, it’s all over.”
After finishing the one-sided slaughter, Kanto swung the double-edged ax to the left and right and shook the ax away.
– excellent.
I expressed my feelings to Paya without hiding anything.
“yes. Chief Kanto, if nothing else, has been really good at fighting since he was young.”
Pa-ya nods her head as if she likes her brother being praised.
“Now let’s get to work.”
The warriors took small knives from their pockets and cut the mushrooms from the infected body.
– What are you trying to do?
“Chief Canto, Malak is curious about what the warriors are doing now.”
“Oh, I’m just cleaning it up before taking it away. The mushrooms on their bodies remain toxic even when cooked over fire. “If we take it back, we will completely peel off the skin and then remove the mushrooms that have penetrated inside.”
Are you eating that?
George posted that infectious agents are safe to eat when cooked, but I thought that was possible because he was a paladin.
– Isn’t it dangerous?
Paya relayed my words to Kanto.
“It’s okay if you just remove the blood and eat it. You might get an upset stomach if you’re not careful, but that’s something you can tolerate. “It’s not so bad that I can’t eat it.”
I see I was a bit reluctant because they said it was a monster contaminated with evil energy, but there was a way to eat it somehow.
As expected, humanity searches for answers. As always.
“are you okay?”
“Well, it’s a little scratched. “Is it like this?”
“Let’s go up and disinfect.”
A warrior is seen with a wound on his forearm. What is disinfection? You just need to receive my healing.
Um, maybe?
[Name: Malak]
– Blessings that can be used: Totem of Healing (Intermediate), Divine Relief
– Available score: 230
– Dependent: Paya
– Community entry
hmm.
[Healing Totem (Intermediate)]
Click.
[Impossible]
I tried clicking on the status window to see if I could write a blessing while in a state of excitement, but it doesn’t seem to work either.
Actually, I tried using it once last time when I possessed Paya’s body, but it didn’t work that time either. I had a small expectation that the blessing might not have been activated because Paya was fine.
I could have used it strategically, but it was a bit of a waste.
“You’ve come quite far. Now I have to go back to my tribe. Now, let’s finish this quickly!”
At Canto’s command, the warriors move carrying the infected body on a similar-looking transport tool.
I still have a lot of questions about my abilities.
Will blessings happen on their own if I just keep collecting points like I do now?
How do you make a family member?
Should we continue to live in a totem state?
Is it impossible to feel touch again?
Is it true that all these problems can be solved on their own over time?
“I wish you could eat raspberries too, Malak.”
Paya, who was sharing my view and was walking quickly with a leather bag full of raspberries, said.
She walks busily, looking at her brother’s back as he moves ahead.
“How many should I put on the altar? As a sacrifice… “Wouldn’t that be great?”
You probably don’t have much to eat.
– Please take more care of the children who are training hard for me. I will think of it as a sacrifice.
Paya laughs softly.
“Malak, please be kind.”
What does it mean to be kind? It’s because no matter how hard you sacrifice, nothing falls to me.
If you don’t want the food to rot and throw it away, just eat more.
“How many did you catch?”
“Three.”
“Wow, I caught a lot by myself. Duya will like it.”
“Don’t even mention that b*tch. “My bone hurts, my bone hurts.”
“That b*tch? Look what I’m saying. “Now that I’m your woman, you can swear at me?”
“Now you’re an enemy, you’re an enemy. They say it’s like living with the devil. Even if I go home early and just sleep, I get so upset. My ears are bleeding. “I don’t know who the hunter is anymore.”
“This is why I’m not getting married.”
“I guess there’s no man to take you. “Living with you is no different from living with two men.”
“Mr. Lee… ”
Seeing the barbarian warriors chatting with each other makes me feel a little more at ease. When I get together with my hometown friends, I talk about trivial things like that.
I realize that these people are also ordinary people like me.
… Should I put aside some unnecessary worries? First of all, I have to do what I can.
If you build up slowly, you may find an answer.
Let us be satisfied with the fact that today we have personally seen the fighting power of the barbarians.

After returning to Totem, I went into the community and searched for ‘Necromancer’s Tomb.’
The post… There are two.
