To the Depth of Abyss - Chapter 207

Arlene and the others shocked because the red laser shot burn Ars’ and the Gryphon to ashes.

“What’s with this situation?”

But they got shocked again when someone standing in front of them.

“You are, Greedy Young Master?”

Jade was the one who recognized Ars’ teleport.

A white-haired caramel woman stands beside unstably.

“Ugh, so this is how you teleport? It’s really rocked my head.”

The two of them were teleported just now.

“Ars!”

Arlene immediately came over to Ars.

Ars and Diana turned over.

Diana and Arlene just met. However, when they looked at each other, somehow they realized something related to their relationship with Ars.

“Arlene.”

“Y-yes!”

Arlene realized when Ars called her.

“What’s that super big snail doing in my Floor? Is that the fruit of my adventures within the Thousand Underground Passages?”

Ars directly stated the place where he disappeared within a month.

“Thousand Underground Passages?”

The person who asked that was not Arlene or Skadi, but Jade.

Jade asked that while showing an annoyed face to Ars. An annoyed face that had struggled hard to block Mountain Snail.

Despite being accused, Ars didn’t show the same annoyed expression. Instead, he felt guilty.

“So it really is because of me. Well, inside that annoying passage, indeed there are monster like crab and shelled monsters. So – ”

“No, it’s not your fault, Ars.”

Arlene tries to justify Ars’ assessment.

“That actually, Echidna.”

Ars a bit surprised, but had expected that. “So, that woman is really still alive.”

Echidna was inside the giant snail. Controlling the Catastrophe Beast to grounded Floor 2.

“By the way, have you named that thing?”

Ars asked that with a bit of excited expression. There was hope that he could name the new monsters before them.

“Um, Lady Hera named it, Mountain Snail.”

“Tch. That old woman.”

Arlene could feel that Ars has a feeling of annoyance with the mysterious woman.

Indeed, since the two of them met, Ars doesn’t like that mysterious woman. Because Hera forbade him to go down to the 3rd Floor and she had a lot of things she knew but didn’t want to share.

“Why haven’t you crushed that monster’s shell yet?”

With Black Sky Spine in hand, Ars believe Arlene could destroy Mountain Snail’s shell. But she still hasn’t done that for some reason.

“Mountain Snail’s shell is too hard. Even Black Sky Spine’s strongest attack could not scratch it.”

“Is that so?”

There was a little disappointed on Ars’ words. He did not blame Arlene nor commented about it, though. Which is weird in Arlene’s ear.

Not just Arlene, but Skadi and even Diana, they feel a weird feeling after Ars’ one month disappearance.

It seemed like Ars gotten friendly? Kind? Maybe wise was the answer. But they still not sure.

Ars rides his flying board to go up.

“Hey, Shield Hero. You may want to create a protective barrier for all of you.”

Ars said that to Jade while flying up.

At first, Jade wondering and curious about what Ars’ mentioned. But then, she realized after seeing Ars creates hundreds of red sword pointed to the Mountain Snail.

“Everybody, get down!”

Jade warns everyone while raising the walls of Green Boy.

Arlene, Skadi, and Diana became the first one who gets down. The others then followed them without a doubt.

“[Dragon Arts – Dragon Breath: Sky Fire]”

Ars cast a high Art that launch hundreds of Sinaga Sword to strike down the Mountain Snail.

The attack caused a really strong wind wave for over 3km radius.

Jade and the others struggling to hold on to their feet. Green Boy’s wall even swayed because of the wind wave.

“We… can’t-if it is going like this!”

Jade can’t seem to hold Green Boy’s form.

“[Divine Arts – Zephyrus: Winter Blankets]!”

Someone cast an Art that strengthen Green Boy’s wall.

The burden Jade was enduring became less and less.

She opened her eyes and witness a white caramel haired warrior who cast a Support Art just now.

Above the sky, Ars was not hit by the super wind wave as a result of his attack.

However, he got annoyed by its result.

“Ars, you stupid!”

Somebody scolded him from below.

That was Diana who saved all of them from the wind wave just now.

“I know you can protect this group.”

“Wa!”

Ars suddenly teleported back onto Green Boy’s wall. That surprised Diana.

“Yes, I can protect all of us! But could you at least warn us before launching such an attack!”

“Okay-okay, I’m sorry. I won’t do that anymore.”

“Don’t say sorry while touching someone’s butt!”

In front of Arlene and Skadi, Ars being pervert to someone other than them.

Skadi actually did not mind that. But Arlene does. It was not a jealousy, but a curiosity.

‘Who is this lady?’ asked Arlene inside her heart.

Ars finally stopped touching Diana’s butt and focused in front of them.

“Diana, get rid of all that ashes.”

“You can do it yourself, can you?”

“Do it or – ”

“Alright! Alright!”

Despite being that strong, Diana was helpless in front of Ars.

“[Wind Arts: North Wind]!”

Diana cast an Art that blown away the ashes that covered Mountain Snail to the north.

After the ashes were cleared, the view of Mountain Snail did not get a scratch despite getting struck by that powerful attack shocked them.

“Even with such strong Arts …?”

Jade became the first one who stated their disbelief.

They were all helpless. After the Sword Saint’s disappearance, and Troy the Gluttony and Spear Saint were on the 3rd Floor, Ars was the only strongest person on the 2nd Floor.

However, even after putting so much on the attack just now, the strongest man could not give a single scratch to the Mountain Snail.

“Is it the end of us?”

Someone suddenly muttered that.

Their disbelief makes them fall into surrender.

“Ooh, I get it!”

Ars for some reason realized something.

“What is it, Ars?” asked Diana.

“That shell is anti-mana. That’s why, even if I cast an Art that could burn all this Floor, I won’t be able to break that shell.”

Ars said something that made him like a villain who could do anything to Floor 2.

But his words made everyone wonder.

“What is it anti-mana you’re talking about, Ars?” asked Diana.

“That’s an ability that can make you immune from mana. The Demon King Commander of Shield City’s incident used that to his wings. But he was too wild and dumb to make use of it.”

The Demon King of Shield City’s incident.

Not one of them all saw the appearance of the Demon King Commander. But what they knew was that the demon was so powerful that it could return Fenrir to hell.

“Yamato used that too.”

Then Ars suddenly mentioned the strongest man who is equal in strength to the Sword Saint and Spear Saint.

But only four on all of them knew that name. The rest only know the mentioned man’s name by Sin of Wrath.

“Yamato also has that ability?”

Arlene became an eyewitness to the strength of the strongest man.

The strongest man who could make Ars kneel down of losing.

“Yeah. That’s why, no matter how strong Arts I launched on him, everything becomes useless because he is immune to mana.”

So that was why Ars can’t give a single scratch on him despite Ars launched so many strong Arts.

“So, the snail is unkillable?”

Jade wanted to make sure. Even if they really couldn’t beat Mountain Snail, then she could only surrender and retreat.

“Who said its unkillable?”

But Ars tell different.

Then he took out Hinayan Pride Warhammer. A large double-edged hammer.

“Skadi.”

“Yeah?”

“Break it.”
