The Munchkin Disciple Wants To Stop Being Obsessed Over

22 – Monster

Adenia, the island where Aden Academy is located.

This island, which boasts the largest land area in the Iselos Empire, was so large that there were many places that even graduates could not visit.

What does this mean?

As it is the main background of the game, this means that there are many hidden quests and events here and there.

I am crossing the ‘Unknown Forest’ located in the northwest of the island to check one of them.

“Have we arrived?”

As you leave the forest, the first thing you see is the endless emerald sea.

The next thing you see is a cliff. How high is it? Looking down from the edge of the cliff, you can see a spectacular view in the distance.

“Let’s see, the biggest tree is over there…”

At the end of the forest, a tree stands tall and alone.

Use your eyes to draw the shortest straight line from the tree to the end of the cliff.

“If you look down from here…”

When you look down from the end of the straight line, you see a protruding terrain.

If you go down there, there is a cave, and that is my destination for today, the ‘Monster Bird’s Nest’.

Giant crow, a strange bird.

This guy does not appear until the middle of the game, but begins to appear in the latter half when he becomes accustomed to the Chaos Cult group.

A figure the size of a house swinging through the air,

A range attack with such power that it leaves me speechless.

These two facts alone were quite tricky, and this guy even showed up carrying the Seven Deadly Sins.

“···It was terrible.”

The Seven Deadly Sins boast an incredibly difficult level of difficulty, and on top of that, there are these terrible monsters.

I had to put in a lot of time and effort to slay these monsters and the Seven Deadly Sins.

I still remember it.

When I defeated them for the first time after attacking them for over a month, an exhilarating feeling of pleasure went through my whole body.

And the monster strategy that was posted on the community the next day.

—-

[Finally found a strategy to attack the monster]

-Simple. You can go here and kill them before the end of the game.

-For reference, entry is possible after the 2nd year part.

-Ah, those of you who are trying the Seven Deadly Sins + Monster Monsters, please stop. How can I break it? I guarantee you, not even the operator can break it.

At that time, as soon as I saw the strategy posted on the community, I immediately left a comment with my hands shaking.

-I woke up.

I was secretly hoping that someone would recognize me.

The comment containing my month’s worth of effort was buried in countless ‘ㄱㅅ’ comments and was fiercely lost.

“···.”

When the emotions of that time come to mind, an unknown motivation begins to well up.

I was standing at the edge of a cliff and threw myself straight away.

****

I guess it’s because it’s a place where huge monsters reside.

The inside of the cave was large and spacious, and luminescent gems were embedded here and there, so visibility was not dark.

How long did it take to walk like that?

I began to feel quite a bit of demonic energy in front of me.

‘As expected, the quest doesn’t appear.’

At this point in the game, a notification for the quest to kill the monster came.

Seeing as no notification has been received so far, it seems like this time was all in vain.

“Well, he was the one who had to be killed anyway.”

It wasn’t disappointing. Because the biggest reason I came this far in the first place was because I wanted to swing a sword.

Thinking like that, I slowly began to raise my mana.

Deceives the scales. Apply acceleration and strengthening magic to the body.

Feeling that the demonic force is gradually getting closer, I pull out my two swords.

Just beyond that corner, a huge black crow will be waiting.

“Huh.”

I took a deep breath and turned the corner, preparing to swing both swords.

Just as I was about to swing my sword like that.

I witnessed the shocking appearance of a monster and had to stop swinging my sword.

“Tweet!”

“···.”

A cute cry heard in my ears.

For a moment, I was dumbfounded.

It was worth it. What I saw was not a huge black crow, but a tiny baby bird the size of the palm of my hand.

“Blue bird?”

I don’t think I was colorblind.

Thinking like that, I opened my eyes and looked ahead again.

“Tweet!”

There was no such thing as blue turning into black.

The next thing I saw was something huge.

“Ah…”

The baby bird was chirping and desperately struggling against something, and I had to swallow.

“Tweet!”

That something was the corpse of a huge black crow that had already passed away.

A dead giant crow, a crying baby bird.

‘It must have been the mother.’

Once I got a rough idea of the situation, my mood slowly began to subside.

If you look closely, you can see tears welling up in the eyes of the baby bird, which is struggling desperately.

Dark magical energy can be felt in the mother’s body.

When I look through my celestial eye, I see various types of black magic circles engraved on various parts of the dead bird.

“Subordination, brainwashing, confusion, tracking…”

I don’t know who the caster was, but one thing was certain.

I’ve done all the damn things I can do.

“Tweet!”

The gaze goes down. A small black magic circle is visible on the chest of a crying baby bird.

“Ha.”

After confirming that the engraved magic was a tracking magic, I had to let out a deep sigh.

It had to be that way. The main reason I came here was to relieve stress, but instead of relieving it, I ended up feeling uncomfortable.

“So that’s why.”

The reason the monster followed the Chaos group in the game was because the Chaos Cult put a lot of effort into that baby bird.

The reason why gamers were unable to access the ‘Monster Bird’s Nest’ before entering the second year part was because the baby bird had to suffer terrible harm from the Chaos Cult during that time.

“Tweet…”

Did I get tired of crying? The baby bird buried herself in his corpse’s arms and tried to close her eyes.

“What should I do with him?”

There are two choices I can make here.

The first option is to kill this baby bird here, which will turn into a monster if left alone.

If I do that, I will definitely be able to stop the Seven Deadly Sins riding monster birds from roaming the world.

The second option is how I collect this baby bird and take care of it.

This inevitably involves risk factors. Because the Chaos Cult will most likely try to find the monster they lost.

And what if I end up facing myself, the ‘vessel of sin’?

It was an obvious story. That the Chaos Cult will do everything it can to get me and the monsters back.

‘Cutting off the buds in advance is the best way, but…’

Looking at that pitiful sleeping figure, I can’t bear to do that.

A safe but reluctant method,

A risky but relaxing method.

I was torn between the two, but was soon able to make a decision, raised my mana, and stretched out my right hand towards the baby bird.

“Tweet…”

Did he feel my mana? The baby bird woke up from its brief sleep and looked at me with her eyes closed.

I put my hand on the baby bird’s chest.

“I’m sorry, but you.”

As he said that, he pulled my hand.

Then, the black magic circle engraved on the baby bird’s chest began to appear in my palm.

“You should go with me.”

I placed my palm on the mother bird’s chest and planted the black magic circle there.

“Let’s go.”

After that, I handed my palm to the baby bird, wishing it to climb on it.

“Tweet!”

Do you even understand what I’m saying?

The baby bird hesitated for a moment, then climbed onto my palm.

“You idiot.”

Even though I couldn’t relieve my stress.

‘If you raise it well, you can ride it, right?’

Still, it didn’t feel too bad.

Just as I was about to turn around, enjoying that feeling.

For the first time in a while, a notification appeared in the air.

[The hidden quest ‘Precious Bluebird’ is in progress.]

[You can obtain rewards when the conditions are met.]

[Please choose a name.]

After checking the notification, I sat on my shoulder and looked at the chirping bluebird for a moment.

“It is the name of a chirping bluebird…”

The baby bird’s name was created in an instant.

****

She was going out with her baby bird ‘Tweet’ on her shoulder.

“What, what is it?”

“Who, who is it?”

I encountered two men wearing black robes.

“What are they doing?”

I asked that question and looked at their behavior.

“Ah, you are members of the Chaos Church.”

There was no need to look closely.

Because, I saw a pattern engraved very clearly on their foreheads.

So I am.

“Hey… sigh!”

“Ugh!”

I didn’t bother listening to the answer and swung my sword first.

Tuk, thuk.

Then the sound of something falling on the floor was heard.

I started walking again without trying to look in that direction.

Now, it was the moment when the purpose of coming here had been achieved.

****

Black robes, with a pattern engraved on the forehead.

And even a vaguely ominous energy.

They were clearly members of the Chaos Church.

I was secretly following them and watching them, wondering if they were going to do anything.

“What, what is it?”

What the woman witnessed was their necks being lifted into the air by a single sword strike from a man who appeared to be the same age as her.
