Weed dived all the way to the bottom of the lake and fumbled around himself with his hands.
The bystanding Dwarves could only conclude that Weed, who stood firmly in the clear and transparent lake, was doing something peculiar.
“He doesn’t seem like a Dwarf who is drowning in water.”
“It seems like he’s struggling to find something.”
Every time Weed tried to grope something in the water, an eel or a gray mullet fish would narrowly escape his hands.
If he tried a little harder, he would be able to catch a fish, but he set the thought aside and kept scrabbling around in the lake water.
‘It must be here somewhere. If it’s in Kuruso, I’ll be able to find it.’
He was getting short on breath, but Weed spread out his arms and wildly walked on the floor of the lake. There wasn’t a moment that he didn’t regret that Dwarves had such short arms and legs.
‘I can’t breathe.’
Although he had high endurance, he was gradually reaching his limits.
Swish!
Suddenly something was shot into the lake.
An Elf’s arrow was imbued with the spirit of air.
The Elf, Edel, who had received advice from Weed when she was trying to buy a new bow, had shot the arrow.
Weed walked towards the arrow and breathed in the air.
“Please hurry and come out!”
Edel yelled out from above the water, but Weed could not hear her. Although he understood what she was trying to say, he shook his head and continued on the bottom of the lake.
Edel shot numerous arrows in order to relay more air.
However, as Weed went deeper and deeper into the lake, the arrows were soon not strong enough to reach him.
‘If this is the place where the sculpture is, it’s probably in the deepest part of the lake.’
Weed did not slow down his diving pace.
Even if there wasn’t a way to go back and get out, with the Power to Deny Death, he’d be reborn underwater as an undead.
If it was truly in Kuruso, and it was a sculpture, he was certain that this was the right place!
In a place where it seemed there was no way of getting out, Weed found what he was looking for.
It wasn’t a solid object, but rather a different flow of water.
