I Became a Wendigo in a Fantasy World

85 – Episode 85

“Stab! “Stab until you get it!!!”

“Hey, there’s a small group over there. “Kill those guys first!”

“Hey, you bastards!”

The Wendigo silently watched the death match unfolding below the cliff. Most of them were scumbags who were into thieves or something, but there were some who were even more vicious than that.

A mercenary who came to visit after hearing a rumor due to lack of work, a duelist who studied at the swordsmanship guild, and the greatest of them all…

“Are they a group of knights?”

The Wendigo asked Skadi, pointing to a group of people who were showing unrivaled behavior among their followers.

Skadi glared at those pointed out by the Wendigo and looked puzzled. Their hair and faces were a mess because they were covered in ash and tattered clothes.

“To be called a knight… Is it in such a mess? Moreover, the knights are arrogant and obsessed with honor, so they have no reason to bow to the witch… “

Her point was at first glance valid. Knights were like kings in their own land, and if they had enough ability, they could sell their military power to nobles to obtain gold and silver treasures.

No matter how fertile the northern land became, there was no reason for the knights to come and see it like that.

But the Wendigo’s eyes could see farther and clearer than her Skadi.

She “Wore armor beneath her rags.” Moreover, the man at the center of the group is killing people with surprising calmness and efficiency.”

At her point, Skadi focused her mystery into her eyes. What the Wendigo said was right.

She was wrapped in roughly tanned animal hides, but beneath that, black chain mail protected them.

With their faces smeared with ashes, they attack the surrounding area, focusing on one man… No, they were butchering.

“It looks like he has no intention of hiding anything.”

The man standing in the center of the group swept around the surroundings, freely swinging a large sword the same size as his height.

It was no use whether the opponent was three or five. The man’s great sword was powerful enough to cut through entire shields and armor.

“Others may not know this, but I think that person is the right article. “The armor and sword shape are not from the North.”

“That’s the level of advertising to get people to know in the first place. “The rest are just unlucky trash.”

There was no reason to watch this extremely boring scene when the suspicious person was confirmed.

The Wendigo gently put Skadi down and pulled her ice sword from her ground, pointing at Skadi.

“Tell her warriors to attack the enemies. However, tell them not to approach those ash bastards.”

“There is no need for Wendigo to deal with small children. “I will deal with everyone except the man who is presumed to be a knight.”

The Wendigo looked at Skadi with worried eyes.

She wasn’t weak at Skadi, but she wondered if there was any need to throw herself into a dangerous situation.

With her ingenuity, Skadi recognized the meaning contained in the Wendigo’s gaze.

Even without facial expressions, I was able to understand the feelings of my father, or rather, my master, who I sincerely serve.

“Don’t worry. “Because there is a way to deal with enemies without having to go down the cliff.”

“!”

As her mystery stirred in her body, the Wendigo looked at her in surprise.

Skadi used her ring as her medium to extract the mystery within herself, and she began creating ice dolls that resembled herself.

‘I knew Skadi was talented, but I didn’t know it would be this level.’

Ice dolls with joints made of tree branches and roots were no different from humans.

The ice dolls, who each created swords and spears, headed to the Wendigo’s side according to Skadi’s will.

Skadi looked at the completed ice doll and smiled.

“I was a little worried, but I’m glad that it seemed to be made quite well.”

“I don’t think it’s quite good.”

At most, the dolls are two objects, but they are no different from the alter egos that move according to Skadi’s will.

Two such clones were created right away, and their movements were even smoother than the Wendigo’s clones.

The Wendigo felt strangely jealous of Skadi’s talent.

‘I’m jealous. ‘I’m still barely able to use my alter ego as a tool.’

Honestly, at this rate, isn’t Wendigo’s alter ego a doll and Skadi’s doll an alter ego?

… The Wendigo gave up his foolish thoughts. Even though she is overflowing with mysteries, blaming her magical talent is just too greedy.

“But… “Can these guys come down?”

The Wendigo asked Skadi, pointing down her cliff. She couldn’t say the height of the cliff was very high, but she definitely couldn’t say it was low.

It was a height from which someone would surely die if it fell incorrectly.

Fortunately, her slope wasn’t very steep…

“Meee~”

“Goat?”

The wendigo turned around when she heard a cry coming from behind her. There, two sturdy mountain goats were walking towards Skadi.

Are you sure you want to ride down a mountain goat?

“Mee!”

“Okay. “I want you to help me.”

Skadi petted her goat that approached her and imbued her with mystery.

The goats accepted her power without resistance. Then the goats gradually began to change in appearance.

It grew twice as large, its horns protruded aggressively, threatening to stab it to death at any moment, and its fangs grew sharp.

It couldn’t be called a mountain goat. It was closer to a beast that eats people.

The goats showed off their majestic appearance and carried ice dolls on their backs.

“These kids will easily go down a cliff.”

“…… “

Can I do something like that?

The wendigo looked at the mountain goat and thought about it.

There have been attempts to make livestock healthier and beasts more ferocious, but making gentle creatures fit for battle has never been done before.

‘… ‘You can do it.’

The wendigo jumped off the cliff, thinking she could do it.

… If she couldn’t do it, she would feel quite disappointed.

* · * *

“Huh?”

“I’m sorry.”

Under the influence of her gravity, the Wendigo hit the ground like a rock thrown by her catapult, and her unlucky ones were crushed to death by the Wendigo’s hard soles.

The followers who were engaged in a fierce battle around them looked at the Wendigo in surprise.

The spirit that follows the forest witch has come down, so is this terrible bloody struggle over?

“Well, it’s finally over…” !?”

“Kill them all!!!”

Of course, that didn’t happen.

The followers approaching the Wendigo were greatly embarrassed when they saw the wolf riders climbing over the forest wall.

The guys who were guiding them started massacring them by shooting arrows and throwing spears.

Surely we were going to take the exam and become under the care of the Forest Witch?

The eyes looking for an explanation turned to the Wendigo.

The Wendigo had no intention of hiding it, so she calmly revealed the truth.

“Unfortunately, all of them were eliminated.”

“What the hell…” “What on earth is the reason?”

One of the followers who had just been killing each other was furious and shouted at the Wendigo.

His question represented the feelings of most people here.

The Wendigo stared at them and explained the reason briefly and concisely.

“What can we do with these guys who are so mean? “It is obvious that it will cause problems regardless of whether the position is low or high, so there is no reason to accept it.”

“…… “

The followers were dumbfounded and stared blankly at the Wendigo.

So, are you saying that the witch, because her followers were so dirty, decided to kill them all?

Followers did not believe the Wendigo’s true explanation.

If that is true, a forest witch should be able to find out a person’s state of mind without knowing their past and present, but I thought there was no way that even a witch would be able to do that.

It must have been his intention to kill him from the beginning!

“Damn it, everyone stop fighting! For now, we must deal with this spirit first… “Ahh!”

“Get out of the way because it’s a bit of a hassle to deal with. “It’s not you guys I’m dealing with.”

As the Wendigo’s ice sword swung loudly, her followers were torn apart and either died or froze to death.

After five or six people died in an instant, the followers screamed and retreated.

The Wendigos overtook them and ran towards the man they were targeting.

Her man took off her rags, put on her helmet, and was waiting for him, as if he knew the wendigo would come.

The Wendigo relaxed her strength and swung her sword, intending to subdue her.

She’s wearing armor, so she can survive this much…

Boom!

“Huh?”

Her man’s subordinates threw her body at the Wendigo’s ice sword, seemingly not caring about her life.

Her ice sword shattered her shield and slaughtered her men’s men.

The torn corpses instantly turned the surrounding area into hell, but the man’s subordinates did not even move.

“It’s a sight that would make even a decent warrior shiver… “It looks like your subordinates are either fearless or distracted.”

“You must be a spirit to have already noticed that fact.”

The Cinder Knight obediently acknowledged the truth, stuck her great sword in the ground, and faced the Wendigo.

The Wendigo checked the ash knight carefully. Maybe this knight, like her subordinates, was being mentally controlled.

But…

“The others are distraught, but you are the only one who is sane. Or are you manipulating it?”

“I am the one controlling it. However, it would be correct to say that that power was lent to me, not by the person I serve.”

The knight answered the Wendigo with a fluent pronunciation, as if to prove that she was normal.

The driver nodded her head and revealed her identity.

“I am Damian of the Plant family. “It’s a bit of a mess, but it can be said that he is a knight who has made a name for himself in his own way.”

“I can’t believe it. “What’s so bad about a man called a knight that he wears ashes around like a charcoal craftsman?”

“hehehehe, I had no choice. “The person I serve wanted to check something.”

Just right!

Damian burst out laughing and snapped his fingers. Then his men rushed towards Skadi’s ice dolls, which had already reached the nearby area.

The Wendigo glanced at her eyes and checked the skills of her ice doll.

He was swinging his spear and sword with such dazzling skill that it was hard to believe he was riding a mountain goat, and he was ready to slaughter his enemies in an instant.

“It looks like the fight will end fairly quickly over there.”

“hehehehe, do you think so?”

“Of course.”

The Wendigo slowly approached Damian. It gives you strength so that if you try to run away, you can dig in right away.

However, she did not back down from Damian, but instead drew her great sword and shouted loudly.

“My love, my master, my whip!”

“!?”

Damian used a strange spell and his greatsword was engulfed in flames.

Of course, it wasn’t such a trivial thing that surprised the Wendigo. Because she’s dealt with a flaming sword before.

What surprised the Wendigo was that at the same time as the great sword was burning, Damian’s men also began burning hotly.

“Quaaa)))????&Quot)?!!!?)!!!?!!!)?!!!)?U?A?U???)?)T?T?Tre?)T?A?A?A?A?)D??

His men let out terrible screams and rushed towards the ice doll. It’s as if a burning flame dies out when it reaches the ice doll.

The Wendigo was taken aback and asked Damian.

“Have you lost your mind?”

“Gosh, did I look that crazy? Don’t worry. That fire is flashy, but it doesn’t hurt as much as you think. “I just do it because the burning pain and the strong suggestion stuck in my head have become stronger.”

As if to prove his words, Damian’s men clung tenaciously to the ice doll, screaming.

They didn’t care at all about the blade wielded by the ice doll.

If the wound was not fatal enough to have one’s head blown off, wouldn’t the hot flames ignite the wound and heal it in an instant?

Damian watched the scene happily and provoked the Wendigo with an excited voice.

“Now, as a dog serving your master, would you like to roll around together?”

“Of all the guys I’ve seen recently, none were more creepy than you. “You really must be a pervert.”

The Wendigo was disgusted and ran out towards Damian.

She couldn’t kill him to find out who was behind it, so she controlled her power…

“Now that I think about it, I might lose a limb.”

The Wendigo swung her ice sword, aiming for Damian’s leg.

The ice sword, boasting overwhelming length and power, was swung like a whip and aimed at Damian’s legs.

Damian ignored the feeling of intimidation and calmly took one more step in front of him.

It was like sticking out your neck toward the guillotine…

“This reminds me of a giant I faced a long time ago!”

The Wendigo realized that Damian had not made a mistake.

Damian lunged forward in an instant and blocked his ice sword with his sword handle.

Kagagagak!

“Inhale!”

She lowered her body sharply and used her strength to bounce the ice sword in the opposite direction.

The Wendigo’s ice sword cut through the air and his body naturally came to a halt.

‘A gap!’

Damian, like a seasoned knight, did not miss the opportunity.

Damian swung his sword towards the Wendigo’s legs, determined to cut off his legs in one fell swoop.

The Wendigo instinctively realized that she could not be stopped… So she left it alone.

Roaring!

Her great sword spewed out hot flames and split the skin of her Wendigo.

It was definitely split…

“Huh, your body looks like a rock.”

“I don’t know anything else, but my body is extremely strong.”

Quad deuk!

Damian’s full-strength attack succeeded in cutting off about one-fifth of the Wendigo’s legs, but that was all it took.

Her flames, which seemed like they would set the Wendigo on fire at any moment, quickly hid their power as the Wendigo cut into her body. The cold from his body flowed out and wrapped around the great sword.

Damian frowned and pulled the great sword, but it was no use as it was harder than expected.

The Wendigo’s power held onto her great sword and did not let go.

Damian realized that fact too late…

“Oh my.”

Damian noticed the Wendigo’s foot tapping on his stomach and clicked her tongue.

Boom!

The Wendigo’s kick went deep, targeting Damian’s stomach.

‘It went in correctly.’

The Wendigo was confident as she pulled out the great sword stuck in her leg. The heavy feeling at her toes was clearly Damian’s.

Damien flew backwards, bounced off the floor, and crashed into a tree.

The wendigo raised her guard and approached Damian.

The guys who have hurt me until now…

‘When I think about it, it seems like quite a lot.’

… In any case, the guys who left the scars weren’t idiots.

Sure enough, Damian coughed up blood and woke up staggering.

He took off his helmet and teased his snout.

“Ugh… “I can’t get over this fishy taste of blood.”

“You’re so pretentious. “Can you tell whether what you just spit out is blood or internal organs?”

“Ah, now that I see it, it’s internal organs. “It was somehow thick.”

Damien took off his helmet and covered his shaggy hair with his own blood. Then he fiddling with a piece of his internal organs that had fallen on the floor and burst into laughter.

The Wendigo was so embarrassed that it shot Damian.

“You’re really crazy to call it a bluff. Or a terrible pervert.”

“hahahahaha! It’s so perverted. Even after all this, I have never forced my tastes on innocent people.”

“Surrender when it’s time to talk nonsense. Then at least I’ll kill you without pain.”

The Wendigo made a suggestion to Damian. If you are destined to die anyway, it would be better to die cleanly and with as little pain as possible.

However, Damian stared at the Wendigo with a straight face, as if he had just heard an absurd suggestion.

“A painless death. “What a terrible thing that is!”

“?”

The Wendigo was dumbfounded and glared at Damian, but he was answering sincerely.

Why on earth are you seriously saying such bullsh*t?

“And please don’t talk as if this fun time is already over. “I can still fight more.”

“With that body?”

“Of course it can’t be done with this body. But my master gave me just the right strength.”

She didn’t even have to ask what it was. Suddenly, Damian’s armor started spewing fire.

Damian screamed horribly… No, he embraced the flames with a scream of joy.

The Wendigo was amazed as he watched the scene. The blazing fire was burning Damian and healing him at the same time.

After a while, Damian stood up so well that it was hard to believe he was in a dying state.

He was immersed in a lingering feeling and his body trembled.

“Whoa…” “Thanks to you, I experienced valuable pain.”

“Is that a curse?”

In the eyes of the Wendigo, the flame just now was a curse.

If restoring a person and burning them at the same time is not a curse, then what is?

Damian smiled and answered a fairly familiar question.

“Others call it a curse, but to me it is a blessing. “You keep making me experience pain that is difficult to experience even once in my life, right?”

“You are absolutely crazy.”

The Wendigo raised her ice sword in disgust.

Regardless of Damian being crazy, I had to admit that he was no ordinary guy.

Maybe it would be better to kill him rather than subdue him…

“Ah.”

“What is it?”

When Damian, who seemed ready to start a fight at any moment, stopped, the Wendigo asked him out of her curiosity.

Maybe Damian’s body hasn’t fully recovered?

“When I remembered the pain I felt from you, I felt a little… “

The Wendigo could not bear her insult and threw her sword at Damian.
