Chapter 404 – 404. Flowers Bloom Even at Graves (12)
– One –
“Hmm. It looks like porridge.”
“Yes yes…?”
“They said that Regal’s subordinates would be like porridge.”
“Ah…”
Hearing Monohorn’s murmur, Ada panics.
His description somehow gave off a malevolent feeling.
“The nimble ones would have survived, but most of the regular soldiers would have died. This bought me another time for the time being.”
“Okay.”
Ada desperately thinks of something else to avoid imagining them dying.
She was still
“By the way, Monohorn.”
“Yes.”
“What do we do now?”
Hearing Ada’s question, Monohorn lets out a sinister laugh.
“I wonder?”
“Yes, yes…”
I was afraid to hear it, but Ada couldn’t overcome her curiosity.
“Would you like to listen?”
“Yes yes.”
Swoop.
Ada presses her ear close to Mono Horn’s mouth.
Hum, wet.
Hum, wet.
The monohorn’s calm breathing is heard.
Ada feels secure.
It calms down.
At that time,
Yup!
“Ah, ah…!”
Monohorn kisses her on the cheek.
Whoa!
Swoop.
She looks back at Mono Horn as she blushes.
Their eyes look at each other
Contrary to her expectations, Mono Horn showed neither her playfulness nor her sexual arousal.
“It will be a little difficult.”
“Is that so? It’s okay. I can bear it.
“If you’re having a hard time, tell me anytime.”
“Yes.”
Whip, Whip!
Rocking, rocking.
She nods her head with her resolute will.
“And there won’t be much time to rest.”
“It sounds like it’s also an opportunity for me to help Monohorn.”
“That’s right. Please use her healing spell properly so that I and Ada don’t get tired. I’ll ask you.”
“All right.”
Mono Horn didn’t talk about any further plans for her.
It was because she put a rather cruel story into her mouth, and decided that there was no need to make her suffer.
– 2 –
Tatatatatatat!
A group of Sheen-worthy combatants run through the woods.
“Follow me! He’s over there!”
“I saw it too!”
“I’ll take a detour and block the road, drive him west!”
“I get it!”
They share the location of the prey with each other in real time and communicate their plans.
Urgency was poison against such ferocious prey,
Whoa!
“Damn it! He’s running away!”
“Iiik! Run!”
Unfortunately, the prey was too fast.
Tat tat tat!
Combat personnel run.
Fault!
Boo woo woo!
Step on the protruding roots and leap forward.
Pot, pot, pot!
Whiririk!
Stepping on a long branch, it crosses from tree to tree.
Chasing something presumed to be prey.
It was something spherical.
Shrrrr!
Tentacles resembling plant stems stretched out in all directions,
Tup!
Whiririk!
It winds around the thick trunk and branches of trees.
Weeeee!
By pulling it, the spherical body moved,
Tup, Tup!
Deude Deuk!
“…!”
“He leaps!”
By pulling hard on two or more tentacles,
Pooh!
Whee-ae-ae-ae-ae-aek!
Woo woo woo woo woo!
“Observation team!”
“Leave it to me!”
I even flew high in the sky.
“Haaaaap!”
“Swoop!”
Papa pat!
Shasha shak!
Following it, several combatants leap.
If you reach the peak in one leap,
Top, top, top!
Grab nearby branches.
Whiririk!
Shake, shake!
After turning my body around it and stepping out,
Tup, Tup!
Papa papapat!
Whoa!
With the momentum gained again, it leaps into the air again.
Let’s repeat the same action several times,
Shaaaaa!
Cranky!
Through twigs and leaves,
Fuhuaaak!
It finally flies high above the trees.
They showed off their wonderful movements to the point of admiration, but
“Do you see him?”
“I can’t see!”
“Damn it!”
There were no results.
In the brief moment of their leap, the prey disappeared.
Their faces are distorted.
It was because I had to repeat this tedious pursuit again after I communicated with the headquarters and received a new coordinate of the bastard.
“Let’s go back.”
“Uh.”
The moment they were about to fall with their bodies entrusted to gravity,
Whirliririk!
Tup, Tup, Tup!
“Oh?!”
“Oh, sooner or later…!”
Tree trunks sprout from under their feet and wrap around their limbs.
As soon as the tree trunks entwine their limbs,
Hook, hook!
Kwajijik!
Wood deok!
Rumble.
“Kuheugh…!”
“Ahhh…”
Sever the tendons in the limbs
It must have been that the prey had not escaped, but had been lurking nearby, looking for their opening.
“Escape quickly!”
The man who seemed to be the leader of the scouting party shouted, but he was also held on to the tree trunk.
Everyone becomes like a moth caught in a spider’s web.
Immediately after that,
Whoa!
Shock!
“Ugh…!”
The prey appears before their eyes.
Shudder.
Pull out a tentacle-like plant stem from the spherical body,
Whirik, Whirik!
Sharak, Shararak!
“Uh, ugh…!”
It shakes them gently as if mocking them.
Sparks fly from the eyes of the moths.
“A fucking bastard…!”
“I’ll rip you to death!”
“Free me, you bastard!”
Let them swear,
Whirly Rick?
Whirik, Whirik?
Shudder?
The prey plucks dozens of plant stems from the main body and forms them into hooks.
Dozens of question marks hover around its body.
“100 million…!”
“Ha…”
Seeing the image of ridicule and contempt, they are at a loss for words.
A man riding inside a spherical structure is well known to all agents tracking prey.
Thus, the prey was able to converse with them sufficiently at such close range.
However, the prey did not choose to talk.
Mocking them with gestures alone;
It comes even more insulting.
At that time,
[Kikikikick…]
“…!”
“Don’t talk…!”
From inside the spherical structure, a distorted laughter could be heard.
Mixed with a strange resonance, the sound did not seem to come through human vocal cords.
As soon as you stop laughing,
Aaaaagh!
Fufufufufu!
The prey shoots sharp branches through the eyes of the combatants.
Their eyeballs explode all at once.
“Cheer, heck, heck…!”
“Turn off…! Ah, no…”
“Ah, ah!”
A moan filled with pain and despair comes out.
If there was one part that she could never recover without the saintess’ mercy, it was the human eyes.
It wasn’t even a special secret that the saintess was with the prey.
That’s why they have to live forever blind.
The prey punishes them with a punishment worse than death.
The prey they were chasing was brutal.
Perhaps, the prey may have been a hunter from the beginning.
If the prey pursues the hunter without knowing the subject, the prey may have given the pursuer a sense of the subject.
Zuzuzuk!
Drooling!
“Oops!”
“Heuk…”
The plant stems that penetrated the eyes are pulled out all at once.
A mixture of vitreous body, blood, and tears flowed from the gaping hole.
[Hi?]
With a slightly refreshing greeting,
Awesome love!
Fufufufufufu!
“Keep it off!”
“Oops, aaaaagh!”
The hunter pierces the whole body of the pursuers with wooden needles.
After making the tip of the tree trunk thin and pointed, it was embroidered evenly throughout the body.
The only place on their bodies that hadn’t been hit by fine needles was their faces, covered in blood.
Dudududuuk!
Cranky!
The tree trunk connected to the fine needle is bent.
The fine needles broke all at once around the waist.
At its end,
Rumble
Knock, Knock, Knock, Knock.
Blood pooled, then slowly flowed down.
It was not a fine needle, but something more like a thin tube.
Through it, blood is drawn from the pursuer’s body.
No, squeeze
The tube seemed to have been made for that purpose from the beginning.
“Heh, heh, heh…”
“Ah, ah, ah…”
Parr.
They twitch
The complexion gradually becomes pale.
A slow death comes.
A bug caught in a spider’s web dies as the body fluids are slowly sucked by the spider.
If left unattended, they will dry up and die, leaving only their shells, just like those bugs.
However, the hunter didn’t seem to have the greed to prey on bugs, nor the kindness to leave them alone until they died.
[Hi!]
With frivolous farewells,
Whoops!
Whoop, whoop, whoop!
“Aaaaagh!”
Hunters toss unsuspecting pursuers down trees.
Whip, Whip!
Flutter, Flutter!
“Ahhh…!”
They scream in terror.
The scream gradually recedes.
They were no different from moths with their antennae cut off.
It flaps its wings in a field of vision full of darkness, no, only darkness.
However, no matter how much he flapped his wings, he could not fly again.
At least they can do
Tup!
Cranky!
Kujik!
“Chehehe…!”
“Puch…!”
It was to smash the tree trunk with the whole body and fall.
As they go down, the tree trunks become stronger and thicker, so inevitably their bodies are also smashed together.
Of course, the speed of the fall slowed down, but the blood flow increased as the daerong dug deep into the body.
Only one being is free from all the exchange process to the extent that it is unfair and unreasonable, but an equally fair exchange takes place for everyone else.
[Kick…]
Leaving behind a deep laugh,
Shrrrr!
Poof!
The hunter who was the prey disappears.
The superior hunter disappeared leaving only depression to the pursuers who had become the prey.
– 3 –
Thump, thump!
Wood Deuk!
“Ke-heo-eok!”
“Kkeuk…!”
Combat agents who have been stripped of their hunter status are strewn about the floor.
A suppressed moan escapes from deep within their lungs.
“100 million?!”
“Hey, hey!”
Colleagues who had returned from the tracking party in the vicinity were horrified to see their miserable appearance.
Rush to them
“Turn off, turn off…”
Purrrr.
Dump.
One combatant finally dies.
It was because the moment he collided with the floor at the end of the fall, his neck was bent in a direction he could not return to.
I wasn’t overly lucky.
“My God… Are you okay?”
The person who appears to be the leader of the tracking team questions the members of the downed scout team.
Compared to the others, he seemed to be in relatively good condition, but he too was covered in blood and his ribs were distorted.
Even his eyeballs had been removed and he was bleeding constantly, so it was inevitable that the word “Horrible” Was too insufficient to describe his details.
“Kuh, keuh… Keuh…, Is it okay…?”
To a polite question, an answer containing deep self-mockery came back.
A bitter smile forms on the lips of the tracking team leader.
“That…”
“I missed him, keuh…”
The fallen Jo Won is in a difficult situation to breathe, but he still does his best to report the situation he observed.
Tears welled up in the eyes of his colleagues looking down at him.
The sadness was light.
Rather, the resentment and resentment seemed to grow stronger.
“I know everything even if you don’t say anything.”
“Bo, think of revenge, gurgling…”
Que hee hee.
Rumble.
He vomits dark red blood
A thick liquid mixed with organ debris flowed.
It covers his mouth
Each had different reasons, but both those who reported the situation and those who heard it were speechless at the same time.
“Damn…!”
Fast!
Slap!
The leader of the tracking team raises his head gnashing his teeth.
I wink at those who are quick on their feet.
“Escort the survivors now,”
Stutter, stutter.
Tup.
A bloody hand grabs the tracking team leader’s ankle.
The tendon was cut, so it was close to putting my hand on his ankle.
The fallen Jo Won couldn’t utter his words properly because death was close to his neck.
Swoop, Swoop.
I silently shake my head and dissuade him.
Even if they went back immediately and poured healing spells, there was no hope of their eyes recovering.
So, whether they survive or die right now, they have already become an out-of-force force.
Moreover, all of them are seriously injured, and there is a high possibility that they will die during the convoy.
Therefore, attempting to escort them had no advantage, other than that the power would be diverted, making those who remained more dangerous.
Even in the midst of dying, he reached that far, and because he was worried about the safety of his colleagues, he discouraged the leader of the tracking team.
Rather than gamble to survive, I would like to die as it is to lighten their burden even a little.
It was a very cold and rational decision.
“Me, keuhup, throw it away, keuhuk, queueek!”
Purrrr.
There is a slight spasm.
His face becomes even paler.
The sound of breathing gradually decreases.
Everyone has no choice but to notice now that it is completely too late.
To deny the reality, the evidence indicating imminent death is too clear.
“… I can’t guarantee that I can get revenge on him, but I will contact the main unit and tell them to collect your bodies.”
“Oh, thank you…”
“… Go in peace.”
“…”
No answer comes back
Dump.
Woo woo woo.
He stretches
Those who fell with him died at some point.
Silence falls over the area.
It’s still.
Such silence,
Hard.
Fast.
The sound of grinding teeth or clenching fists begins to shatter.
The sense of kinship that arose because they brought together the true master who would rule this world formed a strong spiritual bond between them.
Because such a bond connected them to each other with strong camaraderie and camaraderie, the anger they felt at the death of one of them could not help but be thick and deep.
“It’s frustrating…”
“I agree.”
Intermediate and above combatants have strong bodies.
That is why it is rare to die even if you fall from a height of only 20 meters.
However, if you make a mess like this and throw it towards the floor, it will be difficult to find someone who can survive even among advanced combat personnel.
Without the saintess, the only thing left for them was to return to the goddess.
“I’ll contact the main unit and find out his location again.”
“That’s right. If we don’t resume the pursuit soon, he’ll run away before the second team arrives.”
“Wouldn’t that be?”
A female combat agent interrupts the conversation between the foremen and the deputy foremen.
She rested on her pair of legs, twisting her hair with her hand.
He frowned as if he didn’t like something very much.
“Think of the way he’s moved so far. When did he ever leave us far away?”
“Um…”
“Actually, I felt him from the beginning, I think he’s just hovering around us and hunting them one by one.”
“But doesn’t he keep moving to and fro?”
The assistant manager disputes her opinion.
She rebuts calmly without even snoring at her.
“The way I see it, that bastard lured us in.”
“Um…”
“To be honest, his mobility overwhelms us. If he had his will, he’d have shook us off and fled long ago. But he’s got a good distance for us to catch him. What does that mean? “
“It’s great…”
“We’ve been ridiculed from the start.”
“…”
Silence falls again.
Their rage is thick, but they are incapable of catching their prey.
“Shall I be more honest? We are incompetent. We have no ability to catch him.”
“But,”
“I’m not done yet. Shut up and listen to me.”
“…”
The vice-captain’s face flushed red.
Anger rises, but reason holds it for a while longer.
“I’m not saying give up. I’m talking about a different approach.”
“… How?”
“Don’t get close to him, keep annoying him. Make him nervous, so he can’t sleep. He’s a human too, and if you keep bothering him so that he can’t sleep, won’t he have no choice but to collapse someday?”
Do you think it’s a plausible proposition?
“Hmm…”
“Indeed…”
“Are you okay?”
A positive response comes back.
“I’ll make a formal proposal to the main unit. Wait a moment.”
“Okay. I’ll wait as long as I can, so make sure to get approval.”
“Okay.”
Their eyes light up
