Chapter 173 – Second Encounter With the Red Hood Bandits

Whip.

Originally, it was a tool used to drive livestock such as sheep and cattle, but its role as a weapon gradually began to be re-examined in line with the harsh times.

It is light enough to be incomparable to swords and axes made of metal. Thanks to this, even those with weak physical strength can use it easily.

It is not weak in destructive power compared to its light weight. If hit by a properly wielded whip, a person’s flesh will be ripped off in chunks. It is a story that the killing ability is never lower than other cold weapons.

However, compared to these advantages, there was one fatal flaw.

It’s just that the weapon proficiency is high.

While a sword or an ax can be wielded by beginners, whips are not. It is difficult to hit the whip just by swinging it, and even if it does hit it, it is difficult to inflict meaningful damage.

In order to inflict a proper wound, you must aim well, and use the wrist snap to aim the tip of the whip at the target.

Because of this, not many people use whips in battle. In a life-or-death fight, there is no fool who uses a weapon he is not familiar with.

However, what would happen if a person with a high level of proficiency with a whip used a whip as a weapon?

Perhaps those who deal with him will experience hell.

And Yoosung was feeling that hell right now.

Whoo!

The whip cut through the air and made a puncture sound. The sound produced by the tip of a whip breaking through the speed of sound. It is not a speed that the human eye can see and avoid.

Even so, Yoosung dodged the whip.

Damn! The whip hit the ground with a bloody sound. When Liette retrieved the whip, the exposed ground was hollow.

“It’s like a rat…”

A nimble and quick-witted type. It’s the type she hates the most. Liette nervously brandished her whip.

Yuseong twisted his body to avoid the sonic whip. Dodging the whip was no problem for him.

There is a gap in swinging the whip. That is the moment when you swing the whip. When you swing a whip, of course the part closest to the handle moves first.

And it’s not that fast.

Yuseong looked at the movement of that part and predicted the path of the whip. Then, no matter how momentarily he went over the speed of sound, the whip could not reach him.

The problem is that the meteor can’t reach Riett either.

Even if you dodged the whip, the recovery speed was very fast, so a second attack came right away.

Yuseong decided to solve the problem by going around Liet. He thought that if Riett saw even the slightest gap, he would enter without missing it.

Nettle. Nettle. Wedge!

The whip still cut through the air. Even though Liette predicted the path of the meteor and swung it. Yuseong ran around her while avoiding Riett’s attack effortlessly.

Liette clicked her tongue.

‘Damn it, what the hell is that bastard?’

She had never had her whip fail.

Large, hard enemies eventually became soft as you continued to hit them. Even those who nimbly dodged the whip could be hit if Riett paid a little attention.

This is the first time he has ever dodged all whips like Yuseong.

Of course, predicting the path of the whip and avoiding it was easy to say, but in reality it was not simple.

It was because he needed the concentration to follow the movement of the whip to the end and the power to act by believing in his own judgment.

If you lose even a little bit of concentration, or if you don’t trust your own judgment, it’s the end.

However, Yooseong had a ‘wolf oath’. The wolf king’s senses that transcend humans easily predicted the path of the whip.

There, he knew how to believe in his own abilities. Life and death experience backed it up.

‘How did this happen…?’

The whip that was full of pride doesn’t reach at all. As a result, her whipping began to show impatience. She had long since lost the sharpness she had when she first swung it.

If so, she would have to stop whipping for a while and regroup, but that is impossible now.

Because if I stopped whipping her, it was certain that the meteor would hit and come in in that short gap.

In the end, I can’t do this or that, and time just passes. The anticipation of the whip gradually disappears. On the other hand, her shooting star gaze towards her is still sharp.

As if he would not miss even the slightest mistake.

Liet bit her lip. The pressure of not being able to tolerate a single mistake eats away at her mind and body.

The more you can afford it, the more reason sinks.

It was the same for Liette, and in the end she made a small but fatal mistake.

“Look around!”

Riette swung her whip in a circle around her. The straight whip rotated and hit the meteor.

Yooseong didn’t dodge and put her right arm on her whip.

Damn!

The whip hit Yoosung’s forearm. The flesh on her forearm didn’t come off.

It was partly because her whip was weak because she swung it horizontally, and partly because the meteor wrapped mana around her arm. The well-groomed leather armor certainly helped.

But the whip doesn’t stop at beating flesh. A whip wrapped around Yoosung’s arm. The sharp blade of the steel whip pierced Yoosung’s right arm.

“Ahaha! You were careless!”

Liette smiled of her conversion. Until now, she has escaped well like a loach, but since she is caught, it is over. It’s time for her to be punished for her irritation.

She pulled the whip hard. When the meteor is dragged, she swings it around and she intends to ruin his arm and body.

However, an unexpected situation occurred.

Far from being dragged by Meteor, she gave her strength to endure.

“Look at this?”

Riette laughed at Bertie’s meteor. On the day of the whip, her arm would have been a mop, but she thought to hold out. Are you willing to give up an arm?

“Okay, let’s try it.”

There’s no problem having sex without one arm. It might be better if she couldn’t resist. Liette licked her lips.

The whip is pulled like a tug-of-war rope.

Taut whip.

The balance gradually collapsed and the whip began to pull towards the meteor. Embarrassed, Liette gritted her teeth and tried to pull, but to no avail.

The two have now strengthened their bodies with mana.

The more muscles you have, the better your mana quality, and the better your mana control power, the more efficient your body strengthening becomes.

Yuseong is superior to Liette in all three ways. In a power struggle, Riett couldn’t defeat Yuseong.

The reason he was whipped in the first place was also aimed at this.

Riett’s feet dragged the floor. He tries his best not to be dragged away, but again to no avail.

Whirly Rick-

Two of her daggers flew towards her. All of them aim for vital points and fly away. She shouldn’t be right Riette hastily twisted her body to avoid her. Thanks to this, his body was saved, but his posture collapsed.

Yooseong did not miss the gap and pulled her whip hard.

“Wow!”

Liette levitated and was dragged along with the handle of his whip.

Since there was no dagger left of her, Yuseong clenched her fist and swung at the timing when Riette flew. His fist plunged into Liette’s face.

“It’s black.”

Liet’s head is thrown back. She stopped by grabbing her sodomy hair as she tried to fly behind her this time.

A beating follows.

Her fists and kicks pound her delicate body.

Even in the shock that drained her mind, Liette raised her guard and looked for an opportunity.

‘Once you catch your breath…’

Her fist plunged into her empty side.

“Keep it..!”

A shock carved into the intestines. She couldn’t breathe for a moment. Her powers are released and her guard is lowered, and once more her fists are thrust into her exposed face.

It is a meteor that has learned the technique of death. It wasn’t even a matter of breaking through the guards of amateurs who knew nothing but whipping.

In the end, Liette, unable to withstand her beating, collapsed.

Yooseong tried to pick up her dagger, which fell off to finish her off. Sensing a strange presence, she immediately turned around and raised her guard.

Cooong!

She feels a strong shock in her arm. She felt a moment of floating, and soon she found herself in a shabby house in the slums. Her rotting wooden walls shattered on impact and the meteor crashed into the shabby house.

“What is that guy?”

The man who attacked Yuseong tilted her head. He was a man with a size and muscle comparable to Varian, who was called a berserk fighter.

Derius, the leader of the Red Hood bandits.

“That’s right. It’s very strange why Mr. Riett, who went to collect money, is fighting with that man.”

A man with an emaciated appearance walked behind Derius. He is tired of dark circles around his eyes and is a bishop of a cult who is collaborating with the Red Riding Hood bandits.

He looked at Riett, who was breathing heavily with a questioning expression on his face. Liette managed to raise herself up with her trembling arms.

“Mr. Liet? Could you please explain?”

“Shut up. Don’t look at me with those eyes.”

Liette opened her eyes and glared at the bishop, Glaris. His dead eyes were very uncomfortable. Even more so in a state where emotions are sharp like now.

“Hmm… I was just asking for an explanation. It hurts my heart to see you set me up like that.”

“…I’ll explain later. So, kill that bastard first.”

Liette, who picked up the whip, turned to the building where the meteor had flown.

“Did you bring your medicine?”

Darius asked. It is not a drug sold, but a black medicine given by a cultist.

“No, would I have seen something like this if I had brought it?”

“I guess so. This is fun.”

Seeing the meteor walking out of the ruined house, Derius raised the corners of his mouth.

* * *

It was a mistake. He didn’t think about the other enemy’s intrusion and was only focused on Liet. Liette was not an easy enemy.

But that’s no excuse.

I could have avoided it if I had paid more attention.

I got up.

Fortunately, there are no broken or punctured places. It’s just that my arms and back throb a lot. Even that can be moved.

‘The right arm is… Unreasonable.’

Flesh torn to shreds by the whip. I even received a strong shock there. It is not strange that the right arm does not move well.

I looked over the collapsed wall.

Three people are looking this way.

Liette, whom I had dealt with until recently.
The man who attacked me by surprise.
A man who looks shady somewhere.

“Fuck.”

It was difficult to deal with only one Liette, but now it has increased to three. He had no hope that the two latecomers might be weaker than Liette. Because the arm that was beaten earlier is still sore.

‘Shall we run away?’

I had no reason to deal with those three. Because my request was always Luciette. All three of them are not easy opponents, so running away would be the best option.

But I moved my legs and got over the collapsed wall.

Not only was it not possible to run away because he was not in good health, but there was also a reason why he could not run away.

‘Belita.’

There was a possibility that she was still waiting at Luciette’s stronghold. If I run away from here, she might be dealing with those three alone.

I became quite close with Belita. She couldn’t give up easily.

‘Let’s make a fuss big enough for Belita to notice.’

After Belita buys her time to get ready, he runs away towards her. It seems like we can do something if we fight together.

The only question is, can I last until I make a fuss…

Can not help it. If that doesn’t work, I have no choice but to use a congenital jingi. The side effects are severe, but it’s better than dying.

“Did you rest?”

The man who surprised me came up with his words as if sarcastic.

“Thanks to. If you let me rest, can’t you let me go home and rest?”

“That doesn’t work. Did you make our princess angry?”

The man pointed his thumb at Liette. She, beaten and messed up by me, is glaring at me with gritted teeth.

It doesn’t look like it will end easily either.

I picked up the dagger on the floor. At the same time, three people take a pose.

Lisset prepares to swing his whip and the hulking man clenches his fists. The dark-looking guy smiles with his hands behind his back.

I let out a long sigh. After spitting bloody saliva, it was time to move his body.

Kurleung!

Lightning flashed across the sky. Blue lightning falling from the dry sky. The moment I saw that lightning, I naturally relaxed from my shoulders.

* * *

It was while trying to put her to sleep that Orca received her report. She was annoyed when she first received the report, as it had been the first time she had had a good night’s sleep.

However, her irritation subsided when she learned that the report was related to a meteor.

Instead of irritation, what fills her heart is anticipation.

Maybe she can meet him.
She might be able to clear the debt by helping out.
What to do if you get out of debt Shall we work together for a long time and drink coffee?

What she discovered after coming out of her with such positive thoughts.

Her whole body was in a state of disrepair, and blood was dripping from one arm.

“…”

The excited emotions subsided in an instant. A hot, seething rage took its place.

Quarreung!

In response to her anger, mana turned into lightning. The attention of the four people, including Yooseong, was focused on her.

Orca’s distorted eyes turned to the culprits who hurt Meteor.

“…You buggers dare to…”
