Chapter 1645 Brunhild's Conflicting Dreams & Bone Dragon Invasion!
-----
There were two conflicting dreams within her heart. Brunhild wanted to protect the legacy of her mother and the people she cared for, she practiced magic almost endlessly so her father wouldn't be given so much work every day. But she also began to dream about exploring the world outside. She grew bored of the village quickly, of the same days, of the same place. She even practiced wind magic a lot because she wished to fly across the skies and go anywhere she wanted, like that Desert Elf who used wind magic to travel as well, who told her about the green world beyond the sea of sand.
She dreamed more, every night. Her passion for magic and her desires to explore the world and see more than what there was made her train even harder. Without realizing it, she found herself talking to her father every day about wanting to explore the world. But her father never allowed her, even with her incredible magic, every test to show she was an adult had to be through physicals strength, a harsh reality within the giant's village.
Brunhild tried her best every day to get physically stronger, even if every night she also trained magic until she collapsed of exhaustion. Without realizing it, she was undergoing a training regime harsher than anybody in the giant village had ever experienced. However, each time, she lost, she lost, and she lost again. Now at twenty years of age, she was already a young adult but for her father, she was a child.
Without recognition by the village chief, she was not allowed to go out. She didn't wanted to just escape either, she wanted to go out by her own terms, not to escape and then be chased down, knowing full well her father would chase her down to the ends of the world. And today was a special day, saviors came, saving the entire village from what she thought would be their end.
She thought many times about fighting as well, but never had the courage to go out of her home and fight using magic. The constant bullying of the other people of the village and her father's harsh attitude towards her since she was a child made her innately cowardly despite her amazing strength and incredible dreams…
As the guardians arrived at the village, she wanted to ask them about the world outside, to know more about how it was, and about what it was all about. But at the same time she also felt ashamed of herself for being so cowardly. However, when Kireina recognized her strength, she felt happy and excited, someone finally recognized her talents, and she even offered her to teach her magic as a whole, a mentor, it was one of the things she lacked in magic, one of the things that might also build courage inside of her heart to fight using magic.
As she found herself in the beautiful mines of bone, and strange ores that only grew here such as countless red crystals, black ores made of the concentration of iron in the coagulated and crystalized blood named Black Iron, and the rare Silver Crystal, a crystal made by the concentration of calcium and high pressures that transformed it into a crystal as hard as metal, she sat down over her usual rock, looking around dispirited.
Her magic quickly conjured magic automatically as usual, another dull night of magic conjuration. She had already given up on going with the "saviors". And had even begun to consider escaping the village at the end…
"To think that I once wanted to be like mother… But I just want to be free… I guess I don't even know myself yet…" She sighed, thinking that perhaps through the journey she could had have with Kireina, she could had truly discovered what she really wanted with herself and with her own life.
However, she was suddenly interrupted by the screams of the miners she was hiding from behind a large rock.
"Monsters!"
"Giant bone monsters! Run!"
"RUUUUN!"
A group of over twenty miners that often worked here began to run away one after the other. Giants were naturally very strong, so the only monsters they ran away from would be monsters with immense strength, often swarms of C+ Rank Monsters would be lethal to most of the average ones, and B Rank and above monsters were truly dangerous to them.
"Monsters?"
Brunhild quickly sneaked around, seeing firsthand an enormous group of bone monsters crawling from the depths of the mine's caves going down the mountain, they were hundreds of bone monsters very similar to the Bone Dragon itself, but slightly smaller and weaker, however, their numbers were ridiculous, and they crawled across the mines relentlessly, chasing down anything alive they found.
"Agghh! Help!"
One of the miners suddenly was hit by a ray of darkness into his foot, which suddenly burnt his leg and made him trip. A furious Lesser Bone Dragon ran towards him, opening its enormous and grotesque bony jaws and pointing them at his face.
"Ugh! Get away from me!" The miner roared furiously, as he used his pickaxe to reflect the monsters attack, but three more came from around his body, their sizes easily surpassing twenty meters of height each one.
"HEEELP!"
As Brunhild saw the man scream, she gritted her teeth, recklessly jumping into battle.
"F-Fireball!!!"
FLUOOSH!
Suddenly, a dozen fireballs emerged one after the other as she unleashed the power of her Multi Cast Skill. The fireballs impacted the Lesser Bone Dragons, quickly pushing them away as Brunhild reached the miner and healed his wound.
"Y-You're the chief's daughter?!"
"Run away! I'll buy time so you can bring reinforcements!"
"U-Understood!"
The man didn't hesitated after seeing the girl's magic, running away as fast as possible, as a horde of hundreds of Lesser Bone Dragons stood before Brunhild. Her giant heart was beating so fast that the sound it produced was like the drums of battle.
"I have to keep them busy… If these monsters all get inside the village, everyone will die…!" She said, as countless fireballs were conjured by her command.
