Black Witch Log-in
44. Shielding
After leaving the forging hut I returned to the village chief's house. That dwarf named Grock lent me a wooden axe, even if it wasn't a battle axe but a Viking job, it would be much better than a sword.
In addition to the axe, Grock also gave me a pickaxe that was commonly used for mining, an item that I desperately needed to look for Sun flower.
“You want to find sun flower!.” Herka looked so surprised when I told her I would look for healing herbs for freezing.
“True, if Grock's forger dies it will be very difficult.” That Dwarf is my only hope of getting a weapon.
“You're right, if he dies then we won't be able to protect the village. The weapons he made were very important. Also we intend to rebuild the bridge, Grock's expertise will be much needed.”
Looks like Herka thought if I did this for the villagers. It was clearly a misunderstanding, I wanted Grock to recover because he needed a gun. But whatever it is, just let this old lady think that I'm a good man.
“Then take this.” Herka gave me a kit made of snow wolf skin.
Ding!.

“Woah, was this made from the skins of the wolves yesterday?.”
“That's right, what do you think?.”
“This is so cool!.” I immediately put on two Herka-given items. It felt very comfortable and warm, although I was used to the cold temperature but it was better if it was warmer because it felt comfortable.
“Thank you Master!.” for being so happy I hugged the old woman. “I'm happy if you like it.”. Last before I left Herka taught me how to make light runes because she knew there was no way I could use fire while inside the cave.
In the end I left Herka's house for the mining area. Reason and Pluto come with me because we're all hunting. “Maybe I will try to raise the level.”
On the road I saw Hektor and the citizens who could still work were walking in the opposite direction to the direction I was heading. Many children followed the group from behind.
“Nona Estrid?, Woah I thought you were the queen of the snow wolf with that new appearance and the two wolves beside you.” Hektor said.
“Sorry I hope it doesn't scare you.”
“Fear? Impossible.” Hektor then asked where I was going, “What is hunting? If so I suggest going northeast, there where wild goats look for food. But be careful because snow wolves like to ambush.”
“Thank you for the information, but actually I want to go to mining.”
“Mining?.” Hektor looked confused to hear my answer, I also explained if I wanted to find sun flower. Hearing that all the citizens were shocked including Hektor.
“You really are a very noble woman miss estrid.” Hektor said that with teary eyes, as well as the residents who some of them began to cry. While the children looked at me with sparkling faces as if they had seen a hero.
Ding!
[The confidence of the villagers has gone up, you've been considered a friend by all the residents]
We split up, mining is on the North side through the path to Mount Frieg. The damaged bridge is in the south of the village.

Walking fifteen minutes I walked over to the place where Thunder Rooster had died, the place was now filled with humanoid-type monsters like frozen zombies.

[Draughers]
Level: 10
Description: In the continent of Jotun, the soldiers who died dishonorably will not calm their souls. They will continue to be trapped in dead bodies.
____________________________________________
Although the Draugher has a lower level than the snow wolf but their number is much more. Through the mini map I counted 30 Draugher around.
“It would be very difficult. What about you guys?.” I asked Alaska and Pluto but both of them just sat still while sticking out their tongans staring at me. That looks funny.
I actually passed the Draugher horde, but it's a pity to just leave all the Exp they gave me. “If I had a better gun,” I don't want the wooden axe I borrowed from Grock to break fast.
When I was thinking of those Draughers, I suddenly thought of a gift I had not opened. “Truely too, I have not opened the Thunder Rooster.” conquest gift gold box I immediately opened the inventory and immediately took out the gold box.
Woof woof....
“Ssss... don't be noisy!.”
Nguing.....
Alaska and Pluto were surprised that suddenly a square meter-sized box appeared in front of me. I feel lucky that no Draugher is aware of our hiding position.
“Aky please give me a weapon!.” in full hope of getting something I can use to fight, I start to open the golden box. The light shone from inside the box gap, it made me a bit worried. Then....
Ding!
[Welcome to get the Guardian Shield Gauntlet from the golden treasure box]
“Shield?.” I feel disappointed after my wish is not fulfilled. Although the shield is very useful in combat, to be honest, I was more than expecting to get a weapon.
“In fact there is a proverb that says ‘The best defense is Serangan’..
Two snow wolves tilted their heads as if they did not understand what I was saying. Let alone them, I myself did not understand what had just come out of my mouth.
“Ya at its core like that..” I wore an iron hand protection bracelet when activating it appeared a round shield 45 cm wide.

“Not bad.” I think the arm shield I just got is pretty cool.
Looking back at the Draughers, I began to devise an attack plan. I'm not gonna run away from all that XP.
“I'm also worried about the readers who may have started to get bored.” with all the equipment and titles I have, there is no doubt if all the monsters I will slaughter.
