Max Level Miscellaneous Character

The surrounding environment and the texture of the land have changed. The grass and trees are overgrown, and the ground is damp. It’s not just because of the rain. All of a sudden, they had entered the realm of the Lizardman.

Where there were only soil, grass, and trees, traces of civilization were now visible. The eyes of many Lizardmen did not move and looked at the strangers.

“human?”

“Human? Here?”

A low squeaking sound echoed everywhere. Delfino, unable to understand what that meant, was nervous and swallowed his dry saliva.

They didn’t show any particular hostility, but this place was like an enemy camp. They couldn’t trust each other.

The leader of the party, Ferocious Tooth, led Ivan and Delfino to the Lizardman Chief as soon as they arrived at the village.

As he entered the large building in the center of the village, he saw the Lizardman Chief. He stood with thick armor and a sharp spear.

Lizardmen were generally larger than humans, but the Lizardman Chief seemed to be about twice the size of them.

A reptile, much larger than a human, was standing on its two feet and staring at you, which made them felt quite pressured.

However, Ivan and Delfino did not change their expressions. Because the turmoil they had to go through in their lives was not easy to be scared just because they were large.

Lizardman’s signature slurred language came out of the chieftain’s mouth.

“Right, I heard you speak our language.”

“It’s good enough to have a conversation.”

“It’s amazing. It’s a little awkward, but not to the point where it’s annoying to hear. There were humans who used our language so skillfully.”

Being able to communicate with each other meant that we could empathize with each other. The start wasn’t bad.

“So, how did you get here?”

“You may know, but the orcs are moving on a scale like never before. They attacked and seized the eastern part of the human kingdom. We’re fighting them fiercely.”

“Is that so? Lately, the orcs have been a little noisy.”

It’s ridiculous. Ivan knew the orcs were aiming for the lizardmen’s realm.

Ivan thought so to himself, but he pretended not to know.

“We don’t want those cruel and disgusting orcs to cross the mountains and invade human lands, because the battle in the east is enough already. I’m here to stop it.”

The Lizardman chief looked down at Ivan. The eyes of a yellow reptile with longitudinal pupils scanned his body. It wasn’t a very pleasant look.

Meanwhile, Ivan was also looking at the Lizardman Chief and making judgments in his head. (dlazarturead(dot)wordpress(dot)com)

‘Can I win if we fight?’

It was Ivan’s habit to anticipate the victory or defeat of a battle when meeting someone. Because in this strange land, everything in the world was a potential enemy to him.

Ivan’s eyes subsided a little, considering the Lizardman Chief, other Lizard warriors standing around him, and the environment.

‘I don’t think I can win.’

He didn’t properly check his movements or skills, but when he looked at his momentum, the Lizardman Chief was a great man.

If we borrowed power from the gods of Asgard, the story would be different, but if we compare it purely with individual capabilities, Ivan was pushed back.

Strictly speaking, Ivan was a survival setting, not a body optimized for combat. Even if it was to hold on or run away, he lacked decisive power to defeat the opponent.

In the meantime, he filled that deadly room with the power of God, but his pure skills other than that had many flaws.

In the end, when it mattered, he had no choice but to call on the name of God. Ivan was too weak to stand by his pride until the very end.

“The orcs are aiming for human land, does that have anything to do with us?”

“It would have been irrelevant if you hadn’t intervened.”

“If they run away from our territory and return to theirs, there is no reason to intervene.”

At that, Ivan chuckled.

“So did they say they were going back? Or did they kindly ask you to borrow a road to go attack the humans?”

He doesn’t like a continent ruled by humans. They will try to create their own country.

The orcs, the greenskins rebelled, and made the blood alliance, but that was not for good.

To put it bluntly, this is a territorial battle with humans, because it is far from a matter of belief in creating a world where demi human can live freely.

From the Lizardman’s point of view, humans or orcs are the same. Even though humans are further away, orcs are right next to them, so they’ll do more damages.

“I won’t tell you to trust humans. But that doesn’t mean the orcs can be trusted.”

I will attack the Ming Dynasty, so please lend me a way.

So was that really a kind offer? So did Joseon lend the road? If the road had been meekly lent, the Imjin War would not have happened? Whether it’s to attack humans or not, they can’t stand the presence of orcs nearby.

“There is a saying that the enemy of the enemy is a friend. If we share the same enemy, we can work together.”

Then the Lizardman chief kept his mouth shut for a long time, and then made a squeaky sound. Ivan knew that that was the typical laughter of Lizardmen.

“Humans speak really smooth. So what do you want?”

“I already told you. I hope the orcs don’t cross the mountain range.”

“That means you want us to be active. What are you going to pay for that hot blood?”

“Are you looking for the remains of Morna the snake god? I have information about her.”

At those words, the momentum of all the Lizardmen around changed. It was because he mentioned an existence that should never be recklessly put in his mouth.

The snake god Morna, the goddess worshiped by lizardmen and naga.

Waking up the old god who had fallen asleep was a long-cherished dream of the Lizardman. At least for them, it was something that was incomparably more important than the Orcs wandering around.

“Do you understand what that means and spit it out?”

Facing the sharp gaze of the Lizardman chief, Ivan nodded his head dignifiedly.

“There’s no reason to come all the way here and talk nonsense. The information is clear.”

“Are you sure? I don’t think you should say that?”

“Because I’m confident.”

Ivan just exclaimed.

Actually, his memory is hazy, but what do they know? It’s not that there aren’t any clues at all, so just throw in a keyword and they’ll find out themselves.

If he showed a lack of self-confidence here, they would immediately get suspicious and got eaten by the situation. Rather, if he went out boldly, his opponent will think about what this bastard is up to. (dlazarturead(dot)wordpress(dot)com)

“…I’ll have to think a little bit. I’ll give you a room. Wait there for an answer.”

“It won’t take long.”

Since they were arguing with each other, Delfino had no idea what was going on, and finally heard an explanation at the dorm. Then, Delfino’s expression changed very subtly.

“Uh, isn’t this a bit serious?”

Morna, the snake god, has been silent for hundreds of years. However, it was strange that Ivan, the warrior of Asgard, not the Lizardmen or Naga, knew the clue.

“Information is incomplete, but not false.”

“Is that so? Then, the dungeon we were looking for is…”

“No, that has nothing to do with Morna the snake god. Since the situation has changed, I thought I would have to take out something a little stronger and make them react, so I shouted it out loud.”

He didn’t have the confidence to lead the situation by conversation. So he shook the fishing rod with a bait that they can’t resist.

Even now, the Orcs were moving, so the situation was not easy, but the Lizardmen were also excited. They wanted to quickly confirm the truth of Ivan’s words.

“I will accept your offer, but first you will have to tell us the information you have.”

“Alright. There must be an altar to the snake god Morna under the violent lake to the northwest. If you check it, you’ll know that I’m not lying.”

“If you go northwest from here, it overlaps with the path of the Orcs.”

Ivan proudly opened his chest at the suspicious look in his eyes, wondering if he was only intending to use them.

“If you don’t believe me even though I gave you the clues, we’ll have to leave. I’ve chosen the wrong partner.”

Then the Lizardman Chief replied with a more relaxed attitude.

“…We are not ungrateful. If you have received anything, you should be able to repay it. Morna, the snake god, is watching this.”

If the name of the snake god Morna was put forward, the Lizardmen would comply with the contract. But it was also a warning at the same time. If what Ivan said was a lie, it means that they would never forgive him.

“My gods are also watching from Asgard.”

Whiing-.

Chiikky!

As Ivan gently drew the divine power, the Lizard Man nodded his head. You can’t believe in humans, but to doubt the warrior who took the god’s name out of their faith is like saying they’re asking for a fight.

“Then it’s decided. Let’s go! Let’s go find our god!”

thud!

When the chief shouted so, all the Lizardmen around them responded by thumping their feet on the floor. They applauded, raised their arms and cheered.

The warriors were ready in no time. Each of them raised their weapons and waited for the chief’s instructions.

The chieftain wanted to move on his own, but he couldn’t fully trust Ivan’s words, so he made Ferocious Tooth the captain. Ferocious Tooth was the leader of the group who guided Ivan and Delfino here.

“Go! Kill the enemies who stand in the way and bring back our god!”

Ivan and Delfino stayed one day in the village of Lizardmen and headed back to the forest. The goal is to annihilate the wild lake to the northwest and the orcs that they will encounter in between.

‘Whatever the process was, in the end I moved them, so it’s half successful.’

Ivan muttered to himself and frowned slightly. This is because the orcs’ troops that Lizardman had heard were much greater than expected.

Now that they were fighting fiercely in the east, he thought that this route over the mountain range wouldn’t be much of a threat. It should be avoided, but he thought it would be easy to deal with.

However, the number of troops the Orcs put in was beyond imagination. There was a reason for the Lizard men to come out of their territory and be wary. Almost thousands of orcs camped in the mountain range.

It wasn’t that much when he came in to catch the golden boar, but it has grown so much since then? It was serious.

Is it because of him? It was a gaze that recognized him for some reason, but at first glance, he let it go. No matter how much he thought about it, it was overly self-conscious. (dlazarturead(dot)wordpress(dot)com)

Was it really because of him, that they pulled out thousands of troops and sent them to this place? There’s no way, right?

When he left the village of Lizardman and entered the depths of the forest, he felt something subtle. Ominous air clings to the body.

The forest was so quiet. The forest has never been such a quiet place.

As Ivan drew his sword, everyone around him began to get nervous. Everyone didn’t say a word, but they seemed to sense something strange.

There was no attack even though they moved like that for a while.

Ivan could never have liked it. he felt like his nerves were slowly being gnawed. It was an unfamiliar feeling.

“…we’re surrounded. It seems to be getting tighter.”

At that moment, the sound of a horn rang out that woke the quiet forest.

boo-.

Boo-, boo-.

Ivan fixed his sword.

The enemy is coming.
