1st place Guild's D-class Guild Leader Episode 16

 

 

 

 

 

Canal's eyes widened. He looked a little surprised, and his hand, which had been washing his face dryly, fell to his knees.

 

"Don't be alone, but have someone by your side who can stop you from becoming a wolf again.

 

Canal stared at me. Not just staring, but overwhelmed, as if facing an enormous ocean.

 

Before I knew it, I had turned around to see what was behind me. But, of course, there were only walls.

 

Hmm, maybe I was conscious of the audience and said the lines too harshly.

 

"You're with me. Let's survive together."

 

I tried the canal, and I was sure that my proposal worked.

 

Vulnerable to the misfortunes of his unique powers, the man readily accepted my suggestion and decided to take part in our party.

 

I will use him for my survival and help him as much as I can, and we will be mutually beneficial.

 

With this, he gained his third companion on the eighth day of the first round.

"I didn't think you'd run away......."

 

 

 

He remembers men stronger than him tying him up and forcing him to kneel in front of a woman.

 

Long fingers brushed the outline of Canal's face. His lashes fluttered against his fingers.

 

He wanted to turn his face away or resist, but several arms bound him.

 

A tribute to the Queen.

 

Remembering what he was like, he swallowed the bitter water.

 

 

 

"You don't think I'm harassing you."

 

 

 

Yes, it's all my sins. I brought it upon myself.

 

I seduced him first with a dark intention.

 

As if my life was yours, I pulled the trigger on the other person's desires with my sweet lips and then vanished in a planned manner.

 

However, eating the stolen items had no effect, and he was forced to be taken back.

 

 

 

"You're the only one I'm forcing to make it mine. Because you have sinned."

 

 

 

In fact, the items he stole don't seem to have anything to do with it.

 

The woman's eyes glazed over, as if she didn't care about the item, but simply rejoiced at the fact that she had an excuse to take away the man's freedom.

 

His ankles were about to be shackled.

 

He said with his lips cracked open.

 

 

 

"I'd rather kill him."

 

 

 

At that moment, a light burst from him.

 

Shemarin bit them back, trying to protect them.

 

The canal soon transformed into a wolf as he had desperately desired, and was in a state perfectly suited to escape.

 

But, unfortunately, the madness of the intrinsic abilities destined for him blew away his consciousness.

 

Grass and wood were crushed on both front and hind paws, and human blood was stained on the wolf's teeth.

 

In the mad red glow of vision, a dark-haired woman sitting under a tree entered.

 

…… When he opened his eyes, he had been rescued.

 

This is what the woman who saved the canal said.

 

 

 

"You're going to fight for survival anyway, right? Choose me. Survive with me."

 

 

 

And now that she's left him for a while, saying she's going to pick up the two people she's sent outside.

 

He was left alone, leaning his face against the blanket.

 

A word from the character Canal that was announced to the world from the moment he gained his unique ability.

 

 

 

["I hope someone will show up to shake me up."]

 

 

 

The blanket smelled sweet and cozy. It seemed that Rudel had used it, and her body odor could be felt.

 

Unhar buried his nose in the blanket and closed his eyes.

[Day 8 of Round 1 has begun.]

 

[Revealing the rules added on Day 8.]

 

[From now on, a monster will appear on the field, survive the strong monster.]

 

[In addition, from the 8th day, additional hunting points will be counted according to the number of monsters defeated, and the first monster to be defeated will receive a special reward.]

 

 

 

Why is it cold?

 

On the morning of the eighth day of the game, it was the first sensation I felt as soon as I lifted my eyelids. His body shuddered.

 

Until yesterday, it was a sweaty, tropical climate.

 

Gio, who had barely dressed up when he met Lirith, snuck back into his chest and pulled off his sleeves.

 

The air on my face outside the sleeping bag is too cold. But it's not too cold for that.

 

My face is cold, my body is sweaty. Why?

 

I realized it was because of the arms and legs that were pressing down on me.

 

In a cold cave where the temperature had dropped tremendously, Gio was sleeping soundly with me as his body pillow.

 

Gio's sturdy limbs clutched around my sleeping bag. The part that came into contact with Gio was hot and sticky with sweat.

 

'Why me and not Lyrith?'

 

Well, if you had done this to Lirit, I'd have killed you.

 

But I'm going to kill you anyway!

 

Kicked Gio in the face.

 

However, a man with a stat average of B+ was just tickling to be kicked by a man with a stat C, and he was scratching his stomach and turning around.

 

Erai, I'm sucked.

 

Gio, whose senses are as sensitive as a mountain beast, seems to have survived this extreme cold without a sleeping bag and without waking up in his sleep.

 

Perhaps he sat down in the cold to find warmth and found me.

 

'And what about the other kids?'

 

To my left, Lirit, curled up in her sleeping bag.

 

I covered my hand to check it, and it was still warm in my body.

 

But I kept shivering because it was cold. Still, it doesn't seem to be a serious condition that necrosis anywhere in the body.

 

Flames were lit in the palm of his hand and increased in size. The walls of the cave ghimmered red.

 

Then, in a hurry, he pulled the book from his inventory and lit it next to Lilit and Gio.

 

So that this fire can continue to burn even if it falls away from Me, the Creator.

 

Gio was fine, and Lilit would quickly regain his warmth with this much fire.

 

I was relieved, but then I remembered the existence of the canal and hardened my face.

 

Last night, Canal said he was going to sleep alone a little distance away from us to see if we were still feeling awkward.

 

So they set up a place to sleep, relatively close to the entrance of the burrow, far from us.......

 

'Then I'm frozen right now!'

 

As I ran to the entrance of the cave, the floor became insanely cold every meter. Even with my shoes on, I could feel the cold.

 

I didn't expect the field to be like this.

 

It was squallessly hot and sweaty, like a squall climate, and then it became livable, and I thought, "Oh, that's what the manual says about unruly weather."

 

Did you think an ice age would come overnight?

 

No, I should have known it would come.

 

It's my fault that I knew this was a survival game, but I only assumed that lightning strikes a dry sky.

 

If I woke up half an hour late, I would have lost my comrades!

 

I paused for a moment at the heavy snow and white snow peeking out of the cave, but then I turned my eyes to the bottom.

 

The temperature had dropped so much that frost was stained on the outside of the canal's sleeping bag, and even on the face that had been pulled out.

 

'It's literally a statue, an ice sculpture. A young man who was cursed by the Snow Queen and turned to ice.'

 

It needs to be warmed up quickly.

 

But if you put my fire too close, your frozen skin will die.

 

As the leader of this team, I acted quickly.

 

Taking advantage of the fact that he wasn't harmed by his abilities, he raised my temperature with a spark in his arms.

 

Then she turned off the lights and dug into the canal's sleeping bag with her hot body, kneading his cold fingertips and toes.

 

As I fussed in my cramped sleeping bag, the canal flinched after being struck in the chest and chin by the sleeper.

 

I'm glad he didn't die.

 

I was relieved to stop kneading Unhar's hand.

 

It was only then that he came to his senses, and he looked surprised when he saw me burrowed into his arms.

 

Then he asked, his voice rigid.

 

"What do you mean?"

 

The heartbeat of the canal in front of him was so fast and frivolous.

 

I almost froze to death, so my metabolism should have slowed down and my heartbeat had to slow down.

 

"I don't know what you mean. Don't you know you almost froze to death?"

 

Soon, Canhar blushed, realizing what a misunderstanding he had made.

 

I scrambled out of my sleeping bag.

 

Aside from the fact that it had been on the verge of death, Canhar's skin quickly returned to its normal color.

 

No, rather, it seems to have been exceeded and turned reddish overall.

 

He took the canal deep into the cave.

 

When I woke up, Lilit rubbing her eyes in front of the fire, and Gio staring at Lilit was waiting for me.

 

"I didn't expect it to be winter so suddenly. It's my fault. Let's wear as thick a dress as we can."

 

I looked back at my inventory and saw that all the extra clothes had been replaced with neck-length polars and knee-length padding.

 

I made up my mind and changed the weather, you guys.

 

As I thought about it, I thought about sharing the same snowsuits, and I thought that there must be a setting reason for the sudden change in the weather.

 

"I heard that monsters will appear on Day 8, so I think it has something to do with this weather. It must have been a form that would have made it easier to survive in the cold. Use your eyes as a protective color to make your skin white."

 

Even I don't know what kind of abilities and powers the monster has. It wasn't even published on the website.

 

However, to avoid the unknown dangers and just observe the movements in the den, the privilege given to the "first monster slayer" is too attractive.

 

You can see this by looking at the initial unlock reward for unique abilities.

 

At that time, the special reward I received was to raise the rank of one of my base stats by one level.

 

So at least you're going to give them a reward that's equivalent to that this time, right?

 

I can't let the viewers see me holding my breath until another character catches the monster.

 

Whatever hideous monster is out there, I leave the den.

 

"And if I can, I'll try to get the first kill and get a reward."

 

He looked around at his three colleagues and said resolutely:
