Chapter 191 – The Temple

Varian’s neck was rolling.
Those who didn’t know who he was were unlucky and complained why he was throwing people’s heads. On the other hand, Celis and Kara’s complexion hardened.

Varian.
What kind of person is he?
A silver rank adventurer in Kalita and a member of the Red Heart Adventure Corps.
He was the one who could snatch an arrow flying by and tear a person’s body and head apart.

Seris and Kara had carried out such a request before, so he knew and knew his strength.

And that he was beaten, and that the man who defeated him was in front of them was the worst news for them.

Seris clenched her shield.

“All ready for battle!”

Seris shouted loudly. The adventurers picked up her weapons at her cry, but she didn’t want to go this far against one person.

That was when Cerys was trying to explain the man her neck had fallen off.

-That’s it

“Damn it! Undead! That bastard brought the undead!”

The cries of the undead came from beyond Darius’ back. The adventurers finally came to their senses and began to be wary of Derius.

“Eat them all.”

The movements of the undead, who had disobeyed Darius’ orders, sped up. The Undeads of the Kingdom Army came running, holding out spears.

Kang!

Seris blocked her ax with her shield. In that state, when the shield was pushed forward, the undead stumbled backwards.

‘At once…’

Inhaled her breath and gave strength to her arms. As he swung his sword, an undead head wearing a leather helmet came out.

– Kwaaak!

I threw away her weapon, trampled on the undead that tried to bite her ankle, and slammed the shield into the face of the fearless one.

When she puts her strength into her legs, her brains splatter with a groaning sound. When he swung his sword strong again, the undead’s neck and shoulders were cut in two.

For Seris, dealing with an undead like this was not difficult.

Thanks to the Imperial Army’s shield technique, the Golden Dragon Spell, and the Maehwa Sword Technique, which was modified into the Heavenly Demon Sacred Art, the undead’s simple movements were easily predicted.

‘The problem is that person…’

Seris raised her head and stared at Derius. While watching the fight between the undead and the adventurers with a smile, he began to move slowly.

He approached the adventurer who was fighting an undead with an axe.

“Damn it, the dead bastard… Huh? What!?”

Darius grabbed the adventurer’s face and lifted him up. It was great strength. He hit the back of the adventurer’s head hard against the hallway wall.

Kwadeuk.

When he released his hand, the adventurer fell helplessly to the floor. The flattened adventurer’s face was terrifying. His nose is down and his eyeballs are burst.

“…”

Momentary silence.
Adventurers realized. The dangerous thing right now is that man, not the undead.

“Die, you monster!”

It started with two adventurers near Derius. After pushing down the undead they were dealing with, they rushed at Darius.

“Die, monster!”

The adventurer who had gone ahead slashed his longsword at Darius’ neck.

Darius raised his arm to block the sword attack. The longsword cut through Derius’ skin and flesh, but did not touch his bones.

“What, what…”

“Not yet!”

The adventurer who jumped next swung an ax at Darius’ stomach.

Darius gave strength to the ship. His abdominal muscles contracted and thick veins protruded.

The direction the adventurer swung the ax was, of course, toward the center of the abdomen, where no veins protruded.
His ax, like the adventurer’s sword earlier, couldn’t dig through the skin.

“This crazy…”

“Is that all? Disappointing.”

Darius stood with a pitiful expression on his face and swung his right arm horizontally.

“Fuck it..!”

An adventurer who wielded a longsword flew off and crashed into a wall with his arms and waist bent. Derius’ gaze turned to the adventurer who had the ax stuck in the boat.

“This, my… Why can’t I fall for this…!”

He should have abandoned the ax and ran away, but the puzzled adventurer didn’t think of that. In fact, even if he had run away, the outcome would not have been different.

I’m sorry.

The adventurer’s neck was broken. With his support gone, his head was mushy and swayed.

“I’m weak. It’s no fun.”

Tsk, Delius, who clicked his tongue, moved in earnest. He strode and swung his arm once.

The adventurers and the undead fell to the ground together.

One swing of his leg broke another adventurer’s shin bone. The adventurer couldn’t resist and only screamed and became the prey of the undead.

Every time Darius swings his arm or his foot, the adventurers fall one by one. It is dangerous as it is.

Seris, Kara, and Andy made eye contact and nodded.

The three of them rushed towards Derius.

* * *

My whole body throbs and my eyelids feel heavy. Cerys forced her quivering eyelids open.

I see Kara dealing with Darius in a disgraceful way.

Why is Kara fighting alone?

What about the other adventurers?

As she rolled her eyes and looked around her, she could see why Kara was fighting alone.

Both adventurers and undead were all laid down in a state of misery.

Andy, who dealt with Darius together, is also holding his broken longsword and leaning against the wall to breathe. It feels like I’m going to run out of breath any minute.

Seris turned her head to the side to see her own shield.

A completely dented shield.

The body can’t even move. Only then did Seris realize.

‘We lost…’

She knew that if it all came together, she would stand a chance.

No matter how many times we defeated Varian, there were only three of us. Since there are two bronze grades with similar skills to one silver grade, I thought that at least I wouldn’t be pushed behind.

It was a mistake.

The skin is as tough as some animal’s hide, and the muscles are just like iron blocks. Even if the three of them attacked, it was best to scratch the skin a few times.

On the other hand, one attack from the other side is fatal. He concentrated as much as he could and avoided the attacks, but mistakes were inevitable. First was Andy. Next was Seris.

‘…Am I dying..?’

He fought for his life and was defeated. It is natural to die.

‘Mr. Yooseong…’

Suddenly, the man she loves the most comes to mind.
She loved him Because he was in love, he always wanted to be around and be the most important person to him.
It was for this reason that he continued to do this difficult and terrifying adventure.

And because of that, he is now dead.

‘What will Yoosung do if I die?’

Maybe cry
She might cry out loud with a messed up expression that Celis hadn’t seen before.
I’ll be depressed for a while

But someday I’ll shake it off. Because he is that kind of person Because he is a strong man.

If I shake it off, I will live as hard as always. Attracted by his appearance, new women will cling to him.

Then the lonely man will give his heart to those women…
She might have a child and start a family, which she couldn’t do with Seris. Then Seris will slowly be forgotten in his memory.

‘No…’

I hate that. I don’t even want to die
All she wanted was for him to sleep with another woman, not for him to fall in love with another woman.

‘I don’t want to die…’

I want to live and be with him. He wants to start a family with him and live happily ever after.

Contrary to her wishes, however, her consciousness slowly faded away. There was no point in biting her tongue and struggling with her face…

“What are you going to do?”

“What? I have to live.”

“Can this kid survive? Most of them go crazy because they can’t stand it even if they do it the normal way.”

“What has this human seen so far? Does this kid look like those idiots? This kid is born he’ll do just fine And isn’t there any alternative other than this child in the first place?”

“That’s right… Hmm… Yes, already dead. When I go, I have to leave something behind.”

“Hey, are you guys done chatting? If you want to do it, you should be quiet. Why are you talking so much?”

“I… I! Look at you spouting nonsense about not losing!”

“I will stay and take care of the child. Stop talking nonsense and go to sleep soon.”

“Anyway, it’s like a bitch who doesn’t care until the end.”

“Take good care of her. He’s a talented kid. We might easily surpass our level in life.”

After those words, the energy of the two spirits faded. The energy of Seris’ Heavenly Demon Sacred Art fluctuated.

Honwonryongong (魂遠聯功)

The two Heavenly Demons, who once commanded the world, passed away leaving their years to future generations.

“…Get some rest.”

Left alone, the Heavenly Demon spoke bitterly, but no one responded.

* * *

The fist and the sword face meet. His heavy fists had enough destructive power to blow off a person’s head. Normally, the sword should have been broken.

But the sword didn’t break. The power of the fist flowed gently downward.

Geongon Yeonhwan Talbaekdo乾坤連環奪魄刀
A gentle yet strong swordsmanship with the magic of turning.

Kara was using her own swordsmanship to deflect Darius’ attacks.

Every one of his punches and kicks is fatal. He dies if he doesn’t make a single mistake.

Walking a tightrope with a single tree risking their lives every step of the way.

Kara is in a situation that would have burned her body and mind if it were an ordinary person.

‘Fun..!’

I was enjoying it.

Fighting for life is fun.
I am excited about a situation where one mistake can cost me my life.

Have you ever heard that a genius can’t beat a person who works hard, and a person who works hard can’t beat a person who enjoys?

Coincidentally, Kara was a genius to enjoy.

Even when sweat flows like a waterfall and his muscles clamor, Kara’s concentration does not waver. Rather, her sword became delicate.

Each time she survived the sum of her life, she was growing.

Even Derius could not help but get tired of her appearance. Deciding that he shouldn’t drag him down, he lowered his back and drew his fists.

‘A one-shot match? It’s good!’

Kara smiled wide, teeth showing, and raised her greatsword.

The confrontation was brief.

Regardless of who said it first, the two rushed at each other.

Bang! Derius stretched out his fist with force as if his muscles were exploding.

Kara lowered her sword towards Derius’s fist.
Actions practiced dozens, hundreds, thousands of times.

Cutting giant trees

A fist like a cannonball and a sword that cuts even a huge tree point at each other.
If they collide, one or the other will surely die.

A woman broke into them.

With her right hand, she held off Derius’s fist and Kara’s sword with her left hand.

“?!”
“!”

Taking the blow of conversion lightly! Darius and Kara looked back at the intruder and were shocked.

Masks and helmets that covered a beautiful face did not exist.
Heavenly beauty.
There was a woman who deserved that grandiose modifier.

She, Celis, stood tall and looked at Darius with red eyes.
