Twin Reincarnation: Epics Of The Worldline
Chapter 221 221 Climbing a mountainChapter 221 221 Climbing a mountain
[El's POV: ]
"Hump!"
I used all my strength, concentrated it at the end of my feet, and took a leap upwards at the edge of the land where Lucy caught me with one hand wrapped around a tree root.
"Good, grab this… or we can just fly now, right?"
"No. We will climb all the way to the top on our own! Just go now, shoo shoo. I will jump again."
[Spectator 'Deity of the forest of luck' doesn't understand your actions however, they are happy to see you back again.]
[Spectator 'Demon of Lust and Cooking' is having fun with the show. He admired the 'juggle physics' of your world.]
[Spectator 'Father of light realm' has gifted 1000 Oz for showing the true meaning of tracking to the others. They have expressed their sincere admiration.]
[Spectator 'Ogama the boss' is unsatisfied with the progress of the show. They ask where the dimensional dungeon is.]
[Some factions of the Worldline are having an internal argument about how the two mortals possess the <Broadcast control center>. They debate the absurdness of the situation.]
There were a lot of messages popping up today from the spectators after a long time and since it had been a while we were streaming after that day we got this function and closed off all the streams and spectators, this was the first time we were meeting them again.
And, we were in a faraway place, at one of the ends of the western continent in a secret mountain range that was not accessible to normal folks.
'And, we are climbing a mountain right now, hehe.'
[[ Master, I believe you should just fly. If you want, I can take you there. This is, why are you even doing this jumping jumping? This is only fanservice for those perverted demons! ]]
"It's fine Cary. They should just send gifts and appropriate stuff if they want to appreciate my beauty. It's not like they can have me anyway. Just watching me and him and getting jealous is all those bastards could do, hehe."
We were going to the dimensional dungeon that started right after the top of this mountain. It was a good place, I would say, and flying there or using some other means would be easier and more continent but, but when else would we get the chance to do tracking on a steep mountain like this one?
There were many things all around here that we could collect and use as well so, instead of just taking a shortcut to the top, reaching the place with our own efforts and feet was something I wanted to do.
'That bastard was against it since it was such a time and energy-inefficient method, but, when I was the one asking it, he had no choice but to follow behind me… or just for today, ahead of me.'

"Ohm, that would be difficult, hehe. You all will know when we get there. I assure you all though, it isn't some low-ass cheap stake boring place. You will have fun seeing that place, especially the Pure Evil and Absolute Purity factions. You are in for a good surprise."
This planet this world was a small place however, the place we were going to was a controlled area, a dimensional dungeon that was also a 'one-time dungeon'.
There was a leader that we had to kill and obtain the [Dimension fragment] to clear the dungeon, which was an easy task, but that aside, there was also an absurd number of enemies here who obliterated all population resident in this mountain range in the past before the association sealed them off.
'The association president, one of the absolutes of this world that is considered to be the strongest person right after the headmaster was the one that sealed the place after failing to clear it multiple times, however, the association had always worried about what would happen if the seal was broken and a [Dungeon break] happens.'
They did not know what they would do in that situation since the creatures in question had high mobility and were not something that could be stopped with just some human forces.
To deal with them, they needed forces that were at least on the level of the empires or the ones that were called the absolutes of this world.
[ "El, we are almost there. Get ready, I'm going to increase my pace." ]
[ "Yei~!" ]
After our chat with Nes yesterday night, we left her in those two's care. And, she hugged the two of us for a full five minutes before she was ready to let us go.
She cared for us, certainly. However, that love was more than enough for what I needed as a motivation to go back to that place.
'We could choose to just stay away from the academy classes, only attending when there were important things happening or things that were of actual use. And exams were going to be a breeze as well, so, there was nothing for us there. Nothing aside from Nessy, and the other cuties.'
Even Ras was getting cute nowadays.
He had been asking us a lot of things after we told him about the hunting grounds of the academy, and he was enjoying playing just like a cute kid.
The academy was fun only because those cuties were there, but, aside from them, there was nothing that motivated me to go there.
[[ One can see the grand seal at the top! One is going to go ahead and take a closer look~! ]]
[[ "Key Anna~! I'm right behind you all~!" ]]
My physical stats were just slightly worse than his but the way he used his powers made the world of difference.
He was already about to reach the top while I was still running behind him at full speed. And, I wasn't using any buff skills or magic so this was even more physically tiring… but that was the fun of it.
"Hehehehe."
[[ "My master is crazy… haaa… I am gonna go ahead as well." ]]
Cary had been flying right beside me until now but the basted flew away with his small wings and reached the top even before Lucy who was running just a little slower than the speed of sound. The little bastard certainly wasn't weak when it came to things like these, just that he was utterly useless!
[ "Haaa… haaa… haaa… darling, I'm tiered. I will be taking a little break." ]
[ "Hmm? Break? Now?! No, you aren't taking any breaks! The sun is just about to rise! We will miss the chance and will have to wait for an entire day! Tsk. You damn…" ]
Lucy had almost reached the top of the mountain while I was around three kilometers away from on this straight steep path.
I was tired, not that I couldn't continue, but he knew I was saying that on purpose. So, to prevent any more delay than it had already been due to my stubbornness, he turned midway, jumped with a boosted force with his Aura, and after almost flying in the sky with his improved Mana control, he landed near me.
"You are hopeless! Damn!"
by the time he was before me, I was sitting on a rock by a tree on this rocky path.
"what can we do, hehe? Deal with it~."
"Ugh!"
He princess carried me and started running again, though his speed had been slowed down considerably.
"I know you are thinking how 'heavy' I am but, if you don't want to face some challenges going forward in your life, I suggest you wash that expression off that pretty face of yours.
And besides, how can I be heavy to you with all of those muscles you have?! I am not even that heavy!"
"Climbing this practically vertical mountain with you is a different matter altogether alright! Stop speaking or else we will fall!"
Jeez! I ain't even that heavy. And most of my weight is muscle mass! This fucking bastard! Even with that body and power, my small fragile body is heavy to that bastard!
"Ugh…"
He is a complete bastard!
-Swiiiiiiiiish~.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm[ "Master~. I see you got what you wanted-" ]
"Shut the fuck up, Cary."
He ruined the mood at just the end of it!
Why did he have to do this?!
"Haaaa… haaaa… haaaa… haaaa…"
And now he is huffing after only that much, that weak-ass bastard. How is he going to fight all those hundreds and thousands of <E> rank mobs and those elites of <C>, <B>, <A> rank?!
For fuck's sake, the boss is a <S> rank queen! Who's gonna kill it if not him?! I certainly ain't going near that ugly thing, so it was all up to him, and he was huffing after normally climbing a single mountain?!
We haven't even done anything that required his high stamina to be used!
[ "One believes master was affected by the debuff of the seal. His stats are perhaps still getting affected at some level." ]
"Hmmm? What? That couldn't be though… really?"
The barrier was put here by the association president, and though she was a near transcendent existence, this familiar barrier shouldn't be able to affect him in any way.
"Oy, come here."
Anna had only stated a possibility but if it was true, we would have to destroy the barrier before going in to remove the status debuff.
"It's alright, El. I am alright now so we can just go in-"
"Shut up."
I don't like that someone else's magic affected him in any way even with his own skills and Anna's protection spells cast on him.
If there was a skill that could affect him like this, I was not prepared for it this time…
'[Aspect of magic].'
-Ooooooooong!
And, if we do find something unusual, it is going to make things a little complicated for us…
