Chapter 106 – Lucid Dreaming

@@

“Oh, I can’t see anything…”

Yuria couldn’t understand why she was here at all.
She apparently made her love with Ji-hyeok, then she fell asleep, but when she awoke, she found darkness all around her without a single light.
The moment she was perplexed and tried to step out anywhere,

Hwaaak!

A full moon appeared in the sky, shining down on the light, and a meadow with green grass appeared on the ground.
Surprised, YuRia looked around and made a vague expression.
This was her favorite spot, a ridge a short distance from the palace.
YuRia, slowly gazing at the stillness of the night ridge, pricked up her ears when she heard a strange sound from afar.

Kieeck!

“This…!”

It was a scream she will never forget.
It was the sound of low-level monsters heard when monsters invaded the palace.
Frightened, Yuria instinctively touched her arm.

‘There is… There is!’

Ai ter was mounted on her own arm to help her unleash her tremendous power.
Her pounding heart subsides in an instant, and her confidence that she can do anything spreads throughout her body.
I checked the charge and it was 100%.
Thanks to her Jihyeok, her capacity was also increased, so she should be able to fight for a while.
Let’s deal with low-ranking monsters only with physical strength, and transform when dealing with high-ranking monsters.
Thinking so, she gritted her teeth and went down her ridge.

-Ohhhhh! Rot away!

A faint Erandel common language could be heard from the front.
That lady-like voice is definitely… Savnak, the demon of corruption.
It was an A-rank high-ranking monster, according to the Evelyn Gauge, which caused a huge number of people to suffer from plague and rot alive.

‘That bad bitch…!’

After hearing this, Yuria touched the device twice.
Then, hwa-a-ak! With a voice, he transformed into a beast slayer.
A reliable bow and an over-tech quiver that can be used almost infinitely are strapped to the back.
Thanks to the ray of light radiating relentlessly, the darkness dissipated and the surroundings were clearly visible.

“Ah!”
“Save… Kkeaaaaa! My body…!”

The screams of the people could be heard everywhere.
Is that all? He was being eaten by monsters that suddenly invaded, or his entire body was rotting away from Savnak.
Even so, YuRia trembled with anger as she stared at Savnak Bay, not caring about the people.
She grabbed the bow from her back, drew it in front of her, hooked her arrow to her string, and fired.

Wedge liquid!

Hearing the terrifying blast sound, Savnak’s gaze turned to Yuria.

– Heo-eok!

Watching the arrows flying at great speed, the frightened Savnak crossed his arms and raised them above his head.

Whoa!

Savnak was pushed away from a distance with a tremendous roar.
As if feeling sorry for YuRia, she wet her lips with her tongue and thought.
As the device’s charging capacity is limited, quick transfer is the answer.
She hooked up her arrow again and aimed it at Savnak, sneaking a glance at the capacity of the device.
By the way…

‘Uh?’

The percentage of devices did not drop.
Originally, it would have dropped by more than 1%, but it remained 100%.
Has the capacity increased? Let’s deal with Savnak first.
Thinking so, Yuria fired two more arrows at her.

Wedge love!

– Lee profit! Two years!

Angry at this, Sabnak swung his arm and fired an arrow.
However…

Pooh!

The arrow that was aiming for the thigh could not be blocked.

-Ahhhhh!

Savnak, whose leg had been blown off, let out a scream so loud that it resonated throughout the village.
Although Yuria was delighted inside, she thought that the power of the arrows was much stronger than on Earth.
I checked the device again and the charge was still at 100%.
I don’t know what it is, but it must be a good thing.

Three feet this time. Stop it once
With a pleasant smile, Yuria pulled out an arrow.

@@

-Heo uh uh… Uh uh… Save me…

Kwajik!

Having smashed Savnak’s head, Yuria trembled with pleasure.
Because he was very strong right now.
The A-class monster, Sabnak, is a high-ranking monster that is difficult to deal with even in its transformed state.
I used to be helpless in the past, but now my position has completely changed.
It was absurd that he even begged for his life.
In addition, even after insulting Savnak for a long time, the percentage did not drop at all.
Proof that overwhelming power can be used infinitely.

With this power… Maybe we can get rid of Tyrat.
I don’t know what it is, but I returned to the past with power.
God is giving me a chance for revenge!
YuRia’s heart was filled with courage.

Yuria began to kill the monsters that were eating the people one by one with her arrows.
It wasn’t for the people.
It was just because I didn’t want to see the monsters.
Soon after, the village is cleaned up, and a few villagers come and stare at Yuria in surprise.

“Wow, Princess! You are a princess! The princess has appeared to save us!”

Wow!

The people let out shouts of praise and knelt down towards YuRia.
It was as if they were worshiping God.
YuRia’s heart pounded.
When you show your strength, the insignificant people bow their heads.
Both the son whose parents died and the widow whose husband died are now looking only at Yuria herself and making faces of salvation.
I feel good. People who worship themselves should not think that they are ‘evil’.

YuRia smiled faintly, but licked her lips in regret.
Because the most important person was not here.
That person is none other than Song Ji-hyeok.
I wanted to show this strength to the person I love the most in the world, but I was so sad that I couldn’t.

‘If Jihyeok saw this, he would have been proud…’

Yuria, who was sullen, suddenly remembered her mother.
Now is the time when monsters have just invaded the kingdom.
If so, her mother, Margaret, would not have died yet.
Yuria tried to control her quickening breathing and flew towards the direction of the palace.

On the way to the palace, I saw several villages being attacked.
Residents screaming for help with a tearing voice.
It was a scene that anyone could sympathize with, and a few arrows could have been saved as they flew.
However, Yuria did not want to save the scum who only found a way to live when the palace burned down.
In the first place, they were also people with dirty natures, and now Yuria completely ignored them because saving her mother was an urgent priority.

Yuria, who flew at high speed, saw the royal palace in her field of vision, and her expression brightened.
It hasn’t burned yet. Mother is all right!
I can protect you!

Yuria, who kept bouncing her feet in the air, passed the mage tower.
There, Astaroth, who died in the West Sea, was approaching intact.

‘I must kill Astaroth.’

Because? Only when the wizards are alive can they ride the portal and go to Earth to see Ji-hyeok. There was no other reason.
Yuria stopped in the air and fired an arrow.
She channeled power into her arrows with maximum concentration, and as soon as Astaroth tried to show her vigilance, she let go of the string.

Squash! Fuck!

Astaroth’s head exploded at the same time as the cool sound of the string was heard.
Yuria clenched her fists.
In the past, even though I fought alongside Leona, I had a hard time catching it, but when I concentrated, I sent it away with a single blow.
No one can touch the self in its current state.
At this level, even the 4 knights, who are Tairat’s direct escorts and S-class monsters, should be able to deal with them.

Bang!

Having eliminated Astaroth, Yuria landed in the middle of the palace garden, lined with statues made of high quality materials.
She tilted her head as the palace became unexpectedly quiet.
Quiet when all this commotion is going on? The guards and soldiers should have gathered by now.
The nobles’ estates had to be seen here and there.
She tried to scout from the air with a puzzled look on her face, but was taken aback when she smelled the faint smell of blood from inside the palace.

‘Stand… No way…’

Feeling uneasy, Yuria immediately rushed into the palace.
Then he swallowed his saliva at the sight in front of him.
It was because the bodies of brutally murdered soldiers and knights were lying all over the place.
Surely it’s not too late? Didn’t your mother die to the balrog?
Yuria, who was heading to the bed while passing by the corpses lined up inside…

Thud!

“Ouch!”
“Oops!”

I bumped into a knight coming out of a corner.
When she suddenly became angry and tried to strike the knight’s helmet,

“Yuria…?”

A familiar voice came from inside the helmet, and he paused.
That distinctive, stubborn voice is clearly…

“Aaron…?”

It was Aaron, the young knight commander of the royal palace who promised to live with him for 100 years.
As the knight took off his helmet, Yuria took a deep breath.
As expected, Aaron was right.
My own fiancé that I haven’t seen in a long time.
He was looking at himself in surprise.

“Yuria… What does that look like…”

It is commendable that he recognized himself as a beast slayer at once.
If it had been in the past, I would have cried so much because I wanted to hold you in my warm heart.
However, to her who knew the absolute person named Song Ji-hyeok, Aaron was just an insignificant human being struggling with even a single C-class monster.
No, not insignificant, just a strong human being.
Still, it was nice to meet her old lover, so Yuria asked in a recalled tone.

“It’s okay? There is blood on the armor… Were you fighting monsters?”

Aron, who was confused after seeing Yuria, suddenly came to his senses.

“Right. I went to the audience room to evacuate the king and queen… But there were only monsters. So I was on my way to bed after killing a few guys.”

“Let’s go together. I was looking for my mother too.”

“Okay. And… Amon hypnotized the mentally weak. We point knives at each other, but be careful too.”

“I’m…”

The moment Yuria was about to say something, a young knight who seemed to have lost his senses ran from the other side of the hallway with his sword drawn.

“Shit…”

Aaron, who swallowed his saliva, tried to pull out the sword from his waist.
However, Yuria struck first.

Wedge! Perseok!

Without hesitation, she shot an arrow and shattered the knight’s head.
The body of the knight who lost his head fell backwards, and Aaron made a futile expression and burst into anger at Yuria.

“What is this!?”

“I will never forgive anyone who gets in the way of finding my mother, even if they are on our side.”

Yuria’s cold tone.
Aaron is dumbfounded.

“What if I wasted my time on just one knight like that and my mother died? I’d rather kill them quickly.”

“Yu, Yuria… What the hell happened to you…”

“Am I right?”

Aaron was silent.
He implicitly agreed with Yuria’s opinion.
Yuria said with a bright smile.

“I thought you would think so. Go quickly.”

“Yeah, yeah…”

YuRia thought as she headed towards the bed.
Demons and humans are evil.
Evil being manipulated by evil… Of course, shouldn’t it be eradicated?
It was the first time he had killed a human.
I acted according to my instincts for fear of doing something wrong with my mother, and the result was my first murder.
I knew it would feel dirty when the knight fell like a scarecrow, but…

‘Not bad…’

No, it wasn’t bad, it was very good.
As Jihyeok said, it was cool like killing mosquitoes buzzing in the summer.
It was embarrassing though.
However, the feeling of pleasure was higher than expected, and because of her worries about her mother, Yuria quickly brushed off that discomfort.

‘Mom… Sure…’

Please stay safe and well. I’ll take you.
Resolving her will, Yuria increased her speed.
