chapter 262
262 – Scene 262# Black Earth People
*
Day 10.
We arrived at Polar Bear’s territory.
Polar Bear, as its name suggests, is a monster that looks exactly like a polar bear. However, it is dangerous because it has hard leather that is impermeable to most magic and has enough strength to easily pull off a bull’s horn.
No, it doesn’t matter even if you don’t know that fact. Because you can’t help but know that it’s dangerous from the moment you encounter it.
-!!!
Although I have never actually heard a bear’s howl, I at least knew that the polar bear’s howl was not a sound that a bear would make.
Should I say it’s like the sound of a meat-eating dinosaur roaring in a movie?
Only a few minutes after entering the territory, we encountered a huge polar bear.
After only seeing the setting, encountering a monster like this in person is incredibly intimidating.
It has stiff-looking fur and is larger than a polar bear. The saliva dripping from the corner of its mouth told us that it recognized us as prey.
Seeing it like this made me question whether it would be possible to tame it like Helga said.
“Oh, you’re Polar Bear.”
Hmm?
A carefree voice came from next to me.
“Nice to meet you. “My name is Helga.”
Helga politely greeted Polar Bear.
“If you don’t mind being rude, can we please pester you from now on?”
“Kooo!”
Her actions seemed to have provoked Polar Bear, and she cries her contained anger.
“As expected, we can’t communicate.”
“What did you do now… ?” ?”
“If it could be resolved through dialogue, I tried to resolve it.”
“… “You call that a horse?”
Blanche stared at Helga as if she was dumbfounded. Helga shrugged her shoulders sheepishly.
“Well, actually, I didn’t expect it. Then where… “Let’s make it into a teddy bear.”
“No.”
She used her hand to stop Helga, who was starting to relax as if she was ready to fight.
“Helga, you stay back.”
“Yes?”
“Have you forgotten what you came here for? From here, leave it to ‘them’.”
“Ah… But… Is it really okay? It can’t even be compared to Lycan…”
Helga secretly showed signs of anxiety.
She spoke calmly, but I was equally anxious. Because they were not yet sure whether they could fully handle the ‘new power’.
But…
“You will understand that from now on.”
I moved forward alone, leaving Helga and Blanche behind.
“Grrrraa!”
Polar Bear stands tall on her own two feet. She appears to be at least 5 meters tall. In his her eyes her her her, the three of us will look like light prey. On top of that, it’s not enough to attack everyone together, so there’s some crazy guy who comes alone? You might be wondering why it’s a rice cake.
Polar Bear is a highly intelligent and cunning hunter.
As the apex predator of this forest, he understands that the only ones who can hunt him are his own people and the Hoin tribe. In addition, I know about humans through experience.
How threatening it would be if humans joined forces. And she knows that their power can never be underestimated.
However, I also understand very well how weak humans are when they are alone.
He looked down at us, baring his teeth. It seemed like the search was half over.
Only 3 people. It recognized us as prey rather than an intruder who unexpectedly invaded its territory.
A huge shadow fell over me. When she raised her head, the corners of Polar Bear’s mouth turned up. She is convinced that she is a weak prey.
But now he didn’t know. The fact that what you see is not everything.
I responded to his arrogance and her with an expression full of ‘arrogance’.
“Bite.”
At that moment, Polar Bear also extended her sharp claws at me.
Thanks to this, he didn’t see my shadow getting darker and soon starting to spread over his eyes hers hers.
That small mistake decided his fate
“?!”
Polar Bear’s claws cut the air in vain.
I didn’t avoid it. There was just something holding him back.
Polar Bear looked at her own ankles buried in the snow. Those eyes are too pitch black to be her her eyes her her her… It was none other than my shadow.
“oooh!!”
The next moment, Polar Bear was writhing in pain. As if being sucked into a hole, his ankles began to sink into my shadow.
Strangely, my shadow had grown so large that it swallowed Polar Bear.
Polar Bear was quite puzzled by this incomprehensible phenomenon. She started running like crazy trying to get out of my shadow. However, something was pulling him with tremendous force.
Without stopping there, the shadow gradually climbed up Polar Bear’s ankles and instantly wrapped around his body hers.
“-!?!?!”
Polar Bear howled as he was sucked into the swamp of shadows. The erosion that started at her ankles had spread to her chest. Like poison.
“-!!”
I looked at Polar Bear disappearing helplessly in front of me. I stared at the fear in the guy’s eyes.
“…”
It was only 3 minutes after my command was given that Polar Bear completely disappeared into my shadow.
For a first time, it wasn’t at a level that could be said to be great.
“Omg…”
When Helga saw the situation that had just happened, she couldn’t help but open her mouth in shock.
Blanchet was equally surprised to see this surprising result.
I spoke to my shadow.
“… “Everyone show up.”
Only then did those hiding in the shadows slowly emerge. They are not Myoin people… It was a completely new evolved race.
“Meeting Trinity.”
As they lowered their masks and knelt before me, I could not sense any of the servility from before.
The appearance didn’t change much. However, the rabbit’s ears and tail were dyed black, and it was giving off an aura as thick as a shadow. And the red eyes changed to a brilliant ruby color, and patterns such as crescent moons and half moons appeared on each face.
I gave Lucaella her coins and asked her to evolve the Toins. According to my thoughts, I was planning to evolve them into the Snow Earth people, a higher species of the Earth people. The so-called snow bunnies were also seen in the original work. In the snow-filled North, the snow rabbit’s abilities increase dramatically.
I thought it would be useful if they evolved like that, but for some reason, the Earth people did not evolve into the Snow Land people.
I don’t know if it’s the influence of the coin given to me by the Great Devil Lucaella, or my influence…
They became the black people I had never heard of before.
“Really… I don’t know how to thank you. Without Trinity, our species would have been…”
The grandmother who was the village chief greeted me.
Her cough stopped and she looked completely healthy. Even though he would not have been at an age where he could have been active in this way, he personally led the young natives.
According to her, the Black Toin, a subspecies of the Toin, are good at hiding in the shadows and are well versed in ambush, surprise attack, and poison.
Maybe what I said had an impact on their evolution.
– Embrace your venom.
Then, I never thought they would become a truly poisonous black earth people…
While the Toyin are those competing to be the weakest in the Magic Forest, Polar Bear is at the top of the Magic Forest food chain. The indigenous people were reborn as strong enough to hunt such polar bears.
In particular, it was quite reassuring to have 200 people hiding in my shadow like before.
In addition, each individual’s physical ability has increased significantly, making it possible to disappear and reappear as if teleporting a short distance.
It could truly be said to be perfect for a group of assassins.
“Trinity.”
Vanilla, transformed into a black rabbit, kneeled in front of me. She was no longer a scared little girl.
She became a person who was able to do her part among the adults.
“Give us orders… “Wow.”
With this, I am ready to take over the hegemony of the Demon Forest.

“… “Lucy asked me to tell you that.”
“Is that so…”
Late evening, a steamy bathhouse.
Luna and Wendy were soaking in the bath together.
“Well, then me too…” ” . “Tell them I was sorry at that time.”
“Ah! Jim is not a pigeon! If you have anything to say, come during the day and talk to Lucy in person!”
“Hey, hey! “I’m sorry!”
In response to Luna’s outburst her her her her her, Wendy covered her head and cowered her her body her her her her. Even its frightened appearance she looks like a small animal. Would you say it’s a feeling that keeps stimulating your protective instinct? For some reason, it was difficult for Luna to be truly angry.
Since the two met in the bathhouse, the number of days they bathed together has increased.
Although we didn’t reconcile, I felt like we had become a little closer.
No, it wasn’t something that caused us to grow apart in the first place.
Because it was clearly Luna’s fault for being angry because she was overcome with personal emotions… Because I felt sorry, I was trying to build a bridge so that Lucy and Wendy could restore their relationship.
“Anyway… “What do you think of luggage?”
“My Majesty, I see you as Your Majesty… ?”
“… I didn’t say this hoping for an answer. This foolish…”
“S-sorry…”
Okay. That face.
When I see that grumpy face, I feel like a fool for getting angry. I’m angry because it’s clearly a situation worth getting angry at, but what on earth is this feeling of constantly feeling sorry? .
Luna clicked her tongue.
“Hey.”
“Yes?”
“What is it about you that you like so much?”
“!”
As soon as Wendy heard those words, her face became increasingly red and she immediately lowered her head.
“… What the hell. “Is it embarrassing to even think about it?”
“S-sorry…”
“Okay, tell me.”
“Uh, um… That is…”
Wendy hesitated and then opened her mouth.
“The Count… Nice…”
“Are you nice?”
“Caring…”
“Caring? “Where are you looking?”
“Hi?! That that… He’s handsome and has good manners…”
“Handsome? Manner? “You mean that guy?”
“Hi!? Oh, I’m sorry! Your majesty! Calm down your anger…!”
“What. “Jim wasn’t angry at all.”
She just didn’t understand.
Where on earth are you looking? That guy?
Luna had no way of knowing whether it was the warrior’s taste or the common people’s taste.
Tristan’s appearance from her perspective her she was just that he wasn’t ugly.
That’s right, Lucy doesn’t know it, but Luna was born as an ideal emperor. Because she had been isolated from men all her life, she had never felt anything like romantic feelings.
As Luna continued to tilt her head as if facing an incomprehensible problem, Wendy spoke carefully to her.
“Well, then…”
“Hmm?”
“Your Majesty, what do you like about the Count?” ?”
“What?”
Wendy is hesitant and watching.
It took Luna quite a bit of time to understand what she said.
“… What what what?!”
