Chapter 63: Drowned Memory of Lost War (Hinayan Mountain)

"Where is this?"

Ars is on a battlefield that takes place at the foot of Silver Steel mountain.

"It's, not a dungeon."

Let's go back to the moment before Ars got into that situation.

_ _ _

Silver Steel Mountain / Afternoon

Ars let the [Key of Hidden Passage of Hinayan Mountain] float above his hand. The head of the lock aimed at a certain position at the foot of Silver Steel Mountain, and Ars is looking for that particular position's whereabouts.

"Is it here?"

Ars is in the right position, heading east. [Key of Hidden Passage] suddenly stood up. Like telling Ars that he is in the right place.

"Then, what's next?"

Ars is in the right position. [Key of Hidden Passage] being held. But there is no door to open.

"Hmm?"

Unconsciously, the atmosphere got colder.

"It is indeed late afternoon, but there are no clouds, and the sky is still bright."

Then there is only one possibility that will happen.

"Ahh, I see."

[Key of Hidden Passage] slowly disappeared as the atmosphere changed.

"Well, let's see, where will you send me? In front of the dungeon door? In the middle of a hall with many aisles? Or go straight to the boss's room? "

None of Ars's guesses were correct.

He got thrown into the middle of a battlefield. Where all the soldiers clashed weapons and killed each other.

""

"Hey-hey, I'm just an ordinary citizen."

A soldier suddenly raised his large ax at Ars.

"Hm?"

The large ax swung down strongly.

Ars used his left hand to divert the direction of the large ax's swing. The small explosion occurred as a result of the attack just now striking the ground.

"What?"

Ars raised his right hand, looked at his arm, which somehow didn't have a [Unlimited Inventory Chip] on it.

"Why?" Becomes a question that confuses Ars.

"Haaaa! Die!"

The previous soldier pulled his ax to the right side, then was about to swing it at Ars.

"Did he just ...?"

Swoosh.

The large ax swung down strongly. However, Ars easily caught the ax with his left hand.

"Isn't this a war crime?"

The ax he holds is 2x bigger than an ordinary ax. Ars also realized that the soldier he fought had a body twice that of an ordinary human.

Ars destroyed the ax of the soldier with a powerful grip.

He still had a physical strength that he trained. But somehow, [Unlimited Inventory] and [Eyes of the Dragon] disappeared from his body.

At that time, he fought solely on instinct and physical strength. Like an ordinary Hunter. But he is not a Hunter at the time, but a stranger in the middle of nowhere.

"Haaa!"

Losing his big ax, the soldier did not give up on attacking Ars. He used the shaft of the ax and tried to slash Ars.

Ars still easily held the swing with his left hand, then he broke the axle's shaft. Taking the broken part, Ars attacked the soldier; stabbed the head through the eye, then knocked the soldier dead.

Ars managed to take down his first enemy. After that, he looked back at the battlefield more closely.

Big soldiers, or much more a bunch of warriors, like the one Ars faced just now, and ordinary human soldiers in black combat clothes.

"Ahh, so that's the reason why I got attacked."

Ars only wore black clothes. Even though his appearance looked like an ordinary citizen on that battlefield, soldiers of war would not hesitate to kill you if you were from the enemy side.

[Key of Hidden Passage of Hinayan Mountain].

"They are all Hinayan?"

If so, that means it all made sense.

Fafnir did not mention in detail the process they made him as a participant in Abyssal Terra. However, if that place was an incident that happened in the past, then those elite warriors would be people from the Hinayan tribe.

"Then the one in black is, Dark Invader?"

The Dark Knights sent by the Abyssal God.

Even though it was called a war, the number of Hinayan warriors is less than the Dark Invader soldiers. However, it was the Dark Invader who got beaten back by Hinayan's warriors.

Ars realized another shocking thing, namely the place where he was.

"Where the hell is this?"

The battle was indeed taking place at the foot of Silver Steel mountain, but, behind Silver Steel, there are mountains towering high into the sky.

Silver Steel / Hinayan Mountain is part of another world that Abyssal God made as a hunting area in Abyssal Terra.

Ars wants to believe that assessment, "But it is too early to decide."

In the Abyssal Terra / Floor 1 setting, Silver Steel is the only mountain. Even though on the 2nd Floor there were several other mountains, there weren't any mountains like the one where Ars is now.

"Yarn!"

Another Hinayan warrior shouted the name of his colleague that Ars just killed.

"Hey, you got it wrong! Listen, I'm just an ordinary citizen!"

The warrior didn't listen and swung his great sword at Ars. Keep Ars away from Yarn corpses.

After that, the warrior lifted his friend's body, and saw how cruel Ars had killed his friend.

"How dare you?!"

"Hey, I have no other choice! That's self-defense! Even though this is in another world, at least there are rules to allow killing as self-defense, right? "

The warrior did not want to listen to any reason Ars gave. Bravely, he raised his sword at the unarmed Ars.

"We won't let the black side dominate this land!"

"Hey, that's racist!"

The soldier advanced by dragging his sword on the side to the ground. Then, with a firm stance, he swung his sword horizontally to the left. Creating powerful wind waves.

"Lend me this."

Ars took the knife that tied around the warrior's waist.

The soldier realized that Ars was behind him. But it was too late. Ars as fast as lightning stabbed his head with his knife.

Ars took down two of Hinayan's warriors who were attacking him. Even though they weren't enemies, if they attacked him, of course Ars would have no other choice but to finish them off first.

"But, what's with them? Everything about them is 2x bigger than ordinary humans."

From the aspects of the body, armor, and weapons. Even the knife that Ars borrowed earlier was more like a scimitar.

Ars without context observing the face of the dead warrior. Then a guess popped into his head.

"Sssshh, hmm. Is it me, or their faces look like Steel Bull?"

Steel Bull is a passive bull monster in Silver Steel.

Ars did only see them once, while on an expedition with Bryan's Party. But he still remembered very well, the impression on the faces of Steel Bull, and Hinayan's warriors had similarities in them.

"Don't tell me they are ..."

Ars stopped his guess, because his instincts say that he is being seen by many people.

Turning around, the battle somehow stopped, and everyone's eyes fixed on Ars.

On the side of Hinayan warriors, shock and fear appeared in their expressions.

On the other hand, Dark Invader is somehow getting excited about Ars's appearance.

"The Dark Knight has arrived!"

The cry filled Dark Invader's side. Ars appears like an ally they have been waiting for.

"Wat de faq!"
