Chapter 58 – Chest (3)

Koo Goo Goo…

‘That… Can’t be beat…’

Karen’s instinct as a prisoner speaks when she sees Killian’s purple demonic fighting spirit soaring.

That silver-haired woman was not an opponent they could defeat.

‘Strange…’

She thought Killian smelled like a monster of a different rank. It was like the feeling of a name she had seen from afar in the past.

‘That’s right.’

“Karen.”
“Yes?”

As Karen was squinting her eyes like that, she heard Meldeia calling out to her.

“Have you ever learned about basic tactics?”

Even though an enemy the size of hers had threatened to rip her limb from limb, Mel Daya’s eyes were still the same. Indeed, she was a member of the Yongin tribe who had been a mercenary for a long time.

Being old by their standards, long-lived species, means that they have fought for more than one human lifetime.

“Yes, I learned…”

“Then we go to the SS-3 formation.”

“Yes…?”

“Elteron… Will that be okay?”

“Sensible…So be it.”

“Hey, wait! The formation is…”

SS-3, although the official name is different, mercenaries call it Sticky Scarecrow.
The three-man formation was, simply put, a formation in which only one volunteered to trust and sacrifice his comrades.

Meldaya proposed the terrible strategy, in which two people hide and ambush when one person bites a mighty enemy, and Elteron accepted it without hesitation.

“There is no more time. Good”

Elteron firmly blocked Karen’s words. It was because the murderous speculation he felt from Killian had subsided.

Not a good sign. It means that you have captured it, that is, you are ready to kill it.

“I’m sorry…”

Elteron is a member who has been active together for quite some time in the chest. Making such a sacrifice didn’t bother Meldeia either.

“…Sorry.”

It was the same for Karen, who was the first to sacrifice her comrades.

“You say everything. Go away.”

However, the orc knight calmly motioned for them to leave, as if he did not want them to feel guilty.

“Then…”

With those words, Elteron felt two signs disappear behind his back.

However, Killian, who had no intention of leaving it alone, tried to chase the two…

Kwaaang-!

A powerful sword light cutting through the ground blocked her path. Killian cleared the dust and looked around.

-Kreur…

The presence of the two was no longer felt. Her dark eyes turned to the master of the sword.

There, he saw an orc with a smirk instead of the silent expression he had been used to.

“Wherever you go, lady, you must dance with me.”

-…Do you think you can hold out against me alone…?

At Killian’s words, Elteron laughed fiercely, exposing his huge fangs.

“Huh…Look at me, Lady. Not one piece of advice You’d better not look down on the Sword Master.”

Sword Master.

They are not simply rankers. In the past, it could only be obtained with the recognition of the ghost of the sword, but now it is a qualification and symbol that can be obtained only after undergoing and passing the test of the swordsman of the Mahel Empire.

And the test that the Orc Knight Elteron received was to kill one named in the absolute defense line and come back.

The Absolute Defense Ship, which had been dispatched after giving up the position of a Royal Guard Knight to take the test, was literally hell.

The main task of his dispatched unit, the 16th Knights of the Committee, is to subdue the elite monsters that come up through the tunnel dug by the ‘Earthbreaker’.

There, he had to slice through monsters without having time to mourn his comrades dying every day.

The noble knight who was only obsessed with the sword had to spend a year in that hell to realize that the sword was only for killing.

And he realized that there are times when he has to let go of it and become the sword himself in order to kill better.

Perhaps that’s why the sword palace gave such a nightmare-like test.

After that, another 5 years, he eventually survived and killed the named ‘Happy Face’.

Then, it was his fangs, not the sword in his hand, that killed the monster.

In this way, Elteron completed the sword archery test and became a sword master.

‘Oh… That reminds me of that time…’

And the woman in front of her resembles that monster. Sharply polished life skills that tore his colleagues to death, and magical powers that felt a subtle difference from those in my dimension.

Perhaps that has something to do with what Meldeia was talking about. But for now, she puts the useless thoughts out of her head.

‘It must have gotten faster and stronger…’

There is no reason why it has changed like that. I aim my sword in the middle position to deal with wherever it comes. Seeing Killian’s knee slightly bent, Elteron gripped Hilt even tighter.

Kwajik!
“Keuuugh…!”

In-young disappeared. It wasn’t until her forearm was cut away that a sound was heard.

If he hadn’t felt something and twisted his upper body, it would have been his neck, not his forearm, that had been cut out.

Shiiik-!

I couldn’t see Killian moving atypically back and forth. It was just moving and only the sound of the wind could be heard after a while.

An overwhelming enemy that reminds me of Happy Face. In addition, unlike then, the worst situation with no colleagues to help.

And in his experience, an unbeatable enemy cannot be dealt with in a normal way.

Whoa…

Close both eyes. I don’t see it anyway.

Close both ears He will be dead by the time you hear it.

All five senses and even thoughts are abandoned. He is the Sword Master.

A sword demon who devoted his soul to the sword. What is needed now is only the accumulated sword skills and sixth sense of the battlefield.

Quaang!

The ground is broken.

Parietal.

It was only after shedding it with a black surface that I realized where this monster was aiming.

And that’s when it started.

Chae chae chae chae chae!!

“Huh!”

It was the movement of a beast with no rhythm or rules in sight.

Heart, neck, spine, abdomen, eyes…

It was an inconsistent and inefficient attack, but if it was that fast, it would be more lethal than anything else.

Endless sharp and cold violence. It is blocked only with skills and intuition close to foreknowledge.

Quagga-!

My body screams even though I put everything into avoiding the front, twisting and shedding.

Chew-!
“Mmm!”

In the end, another blow was allowed. This is because the reaction of the muscles was delayed due to the limits of the body that came quickly.

The muscles and veins in the femur were cracked. Blood pours from the cracked thigh. Mobility is a big problem.

‘Does not matter.’

Anyway, now I am a tanker. The one who receives all attacks from the front. It is a hunting dog that lingers while biting a wild boar that runs rampant even when its body is torn.

Since the opponent has decided to become a beast, he must do the same himself. Like back then

Fortunately for her, this woman who has lost her half of her reason no longer cares about her other two companions who have disappeared here and is only aiming for El Theron himself.

‘It makes a gap.’

If you create a gap, it will be the two comrades who are hiding somewhere who will stop breathing.

And… The opportunity has arrived.

“Gagging!”

A punch was thrown between her left arm and side. She spreads her arms to avoid it, but the sharp wind pressure from there feels her upper arm and serratus anterior muscles being ripped off.

‘Now!’

Biteing his teeth and holding back, El Theron let go of his sword and grabbed her arm that came through.

Fast…

Even her right arm, which had discarded her sword, mobilized and twisted Killian’s purple biological armor.

Her broken bones popped out and her muscles were torn strand by strand. In addition, a situation where even her mind is fading due to a large amount of blood loss.

She was severely injured and bedridden for several weeks, but El Theron fortified her body with her magic and held on.

Can not help it. This is probably the last one. If you miss it, there will be no more chances.

Nodded…
“Turn it off…!”

After the second battle began, a mana light rose like a haze from his upper body as he grabbed Killian’s arm, which he had captured correctly for the first time.

Maybe my colleagues are behind this monster whose arms are now blocked…

Ah…

No. I was mistaken. The silver-haired woman’s dark eyes were sunken when El Theron looked up at her.

‘It wasn’t me…’

This woman was not a wild animal, but a hunter who lured her prey.

This is a trap not an opportunity. It wasn’t that the gap was revealed, it was revealed. To knock out…

Shiiik-!

She looks behind her Two colleagues aiming for Killian’s rear at high speed…

“Oh, don’t come!”

The knight shouted, but by then they had already come all the way back.

Karen and Meldeia’s daggers and fists aimed at her back had full power. You can’t twist that kind of inertia.

“Keugh…!”

Can not help it. This is the turning point. It was a moment to collide. He just pressed her arm down harder. I don’t know what you want, but to get out of the way as much as possible.

“Die!”

Shuuk!
From Killian’s rear, sharp swordsmanship and heavy fists flew.

But it didn’t matter. From the beginning, her goal was not the orc in front of her eyes, but the two who were hiding and waiting for themselves to reveal themselves.

The huge accumulated demonic energy is contained in the right arm of the captured Killian.

The reason she took out her biological armor wasn’t to protect herself, or simply to become faster or stronger.

Even then, if you wanted to block it, you could block it without taking out your armor. However, I thought it was unstable to smash these three.

If so, you should definitely use force. And that technology required high durability that was incomparable to the current body.

She recalled. She remembers the moment when she was almost killed by Yoochun in the past. The compressed Magi circulates inside her arm.

Ugh…

‘Now…!’

Compressed and circulated at high speed, the demonic air was released through her elbow, and the space behind her exploded.

Tuung…

A circular purple wave spread out with a heavy sound.

“Ah…!”

Karen’s dagger, loaded with sword energy, crumbles. Karen watched the waves approaching as she disassembled everything in the slow-moving time. She said that no matter what she did, she couldn’t help it.

Just when Karen wanted her to die like this, Meldaya, distorting her face, who was next to her, opened her fist.

“Keugh!”

Then, he forcibly twisted the shape for piercing contained in the magical energy, and quickly exploded the magical energy according to the purple waveform.

Beyond the brain that recognizes and commands, the survival instinct engraved in the body for a long time carried out the process in an instant.

[Dragon angle resonance]

– What?!

Two purple and white circular waves overlap and cancel each other.

Kwagwagwang!!

A disorienting force spread in all directions, destroying the remains of buildings.

Elteron, who was holding on to Killian’s right arm, could not stand it any longer and passed out and flew away.

“Cool! My Qigong is my major.”

Meldeia vomited a large amount of blood as she grabbed her right arm, which was bent in an impossible way.

Her magic circuits were overheated, and the destructive vibrations that ran through her body were tearing her body even at this moment.

“But it will be the same for you.”

-That’s what… Cool…!

Killian coughed up blood. The pain she felt in her body made her wonder more than pain.

– What is this…

“Hehe…Didn’t I tell you? I mean qigong is my major.”

Meldeia grinned with a pale expression. When he destroyed her waves with resonance, he hit a part of it into Killian.

Knock!

– Anyway, let’s do it!

Killian himself can still move. The orc who was blocking him was blown away and stunned by his disorienting wave, and all that was left was the now half-corpse…

Where is that girl?!

Karen, who should have been a corpse, was nowhere to be seen next to Meldeia.

“Now it is only you. Do your part, Karen…”

After those words, Meldeia collapsed.

Shhh-!

At the same time, Killian lowered her head at the sound of a wave coming from next to her. A sword blade loaded with black energy over her head grazed her silver hair.

-Dare!

She turned her head to find Karen glaring at her, holding only one of her two daggers in her reverse hand.

The reason why she is still alive is because Mel Daya took on all of her waves that were supposed to be directed at her.

Karen looked at Elteron and Meldeia, who had become half-corpses.

‘Seniors…’

Aside from the personalities of Elteron and Meldeia, he was a respectable warrior.

Her blood flowed from that monstrous silver-haired woman’s mouth and her body trembled.

The perfect armor sprouting from her body cracked and showed cracks.

It’s probably not normal. In comparison, all Karen lost was a dagger.

The two created an environment in which they could face off against strong opponents they could not reach. Now you just have to do well.

Whoa…

“Come on monster.”
