Episode 100 – Compatibility

“What are you!”

“Where did you come from?”

The members of the Dark Church were embarrassed by my sudden appearance.

I looked at Deborah.

-Good job.

-What! It wasn’t that difficult.

Deborah was humbled by her praise.

Contrary to the lively voice in her head, she was currently trembling with anxiety, hugging the mannequin overlaid with her illusion.

The traces of tears that have not yet been erased from the corners of the eyes look very real.

‘You had a talent for acting.’

When I first asked for it, it was so awkward that I thought what would happen if I got caught, but it was just a useless worry.

Rather, I should be careful not to be deceived later.

At that time, when Deborah was being cautiously guarded, members of the Dark Church exchanged glances with her and attacked her all at once.

“Die!”

“I will slaughter your limbs!”

Perhaps because there was no capture order, I feel anxious.

My response to the attack targeting my entire body was very simple.

Ignore everything except vital points.

Do it yourself!

The attacks of the Dark Church members cut the skin and blood spurts out.

However, before the pain could be transmitted to my brain, the sparks that bloomed regenerated the wound, and all I felt was that I had been cut.

In the meantime, I struck a punch at a time at each of the guys who had been attacked and revealed an opening.

Pop! Pubung!

It sounded like a bomb exploding rather than the sound of fabric touching fabric.

The condensed flame of destruction explodes, burning not only their bodies but also their demonic energy, inflicting unimaginable levels of pain.

“Kwaaaaa!”

“Aaaaah!”

They fall to the floor, scream, and then die in the flames that spread throughout their bodies.

As their colleagues disappeared without even leaving a trace, the remaining church members hesitated and retreated.

“What is this!”

“Shit! Burning even the demon energy?”

“W-what are you? “Who are you disturbing us?”

It’s truly disgusting that these people, who have probably killed as many people as they want, value their own lives.

I swept them away with a question and answer dance.

Three minutes were enough to kill all the cult members.

After taking a deep breath and checking my physical condition, I turned my head and looked at Deborah.

“Go and see.”

“Yes?”

“The man. Shouldn’t it be treated? If you go to the church, you will be able to get treatment. “Friends, I will help you, so don’t worry.”

“Ah! Ah yes! “Then I’ll ask you a favor!”

Illusion magic consumes a lot of mana.

Deborah didn’t know when the illusion spell on the mannequin would wear off, so instead of replying at length to what I said, Deborah simply bowed her head and went down the stairs.

Now, as long as Deborah goes outside the clock tower, the plan will be completed successfully.

Since I’ve appeared, Ethan won’t have to keep spying on Deborah, and the mannequin won’t get caught.

As long as I know that Luan and I exist at the same time, there will be no doubt in the future.

‘Good. With this, one thing is over.’

All that’s left is to help Abel and his group

*

Kwaaang!

The shield and fist collided, and a loud roar rang out widely.

Abel was unable to withstand the enormous impact and was thrown off, sliding on the ground for a long time. Her legs were shaking as if they would collapse at any moment.

The other person doesn’t seem to like that.

“Is this the end? Try harder.”

Red striped hair with vertically split red pupils. The round, upright ears and long tail indicate that he is a tiger beast.

Battle enthusiast Krak.

He, who served as Baltar’s guard, was currently handling the entire offensive of Abel and his party alone.

Self-made!

While Abel was momentarily distracted, Alyssa and Pernia rushed in from the blind spot, looking for an opening.

The rapier and dagger were swung at the same time, occupying the space to avoid before flying in. Even if you avoid one, you have no choice but to be hit by the other.

Krak boldly took the dagger and struck away the rapier.

Kaaaaang!

“Ugh!”

Alyssa quickly twisted her trajectory and let go of her fist, but she was unable to withstand the tremendous strength and flew backwards.

And as soon as Pernia plunges the dagger into the guy’s forearm, she puts it down without any hesitation and retreats.

Krak nervously pulled out his dagger and threw it to the floor.

“How long are you going to fight like this? Let’s have a fierce battle of slaughter!”

His roaring forearm He slowly healed.

Bloodline ritual, a privilege of the beast people. That power, passed down from ancient times, gave Krak endless regenerative abilities.

The numerous attacks he had received so far had not even caused him any damage.

In some ways, it was a more annoying opponent than Shakra.

Shakra was caught off guard in the first place, and if she pushed ahead with her physical strength, there was a chance of victory.

If we do not have the firepower to overwhelm Krak, he will fight like he is now and eventually Abel and his group his his will collapse from exhaustion first.

Alyssa bit her lip in exasperation.

‘As expected, it’s still too weak.’

After working hard, I was able to use my sword skills freely, but I still couldn’t solve the crisis that was right in front of me.

This is why he had no idea when he would be able to repay his debt to Hyeon.

It was that moment.

“Crack. Finish it quickly.”

Baltar, who was concentrating on completing the magic circle at the observatory overlooking the academy, urged Krak.

As a thorough planner, he hated it when his expectations went astray.

Although Krak was not his immediate superior to him, he could not go against the will of Baltar, who was of a higher rank.

“Well, I was slowly getting tired of it anyway, so it doesn’t matter. “Stop dying now!”

His regime hit the shield.

Wow!

“Ouch!”

Abel, who had barely withstood the attack, rolled on the floor with a scream.

Krak’s fist was suddenly blazing red.

There is a world of difference between a strong force that has condensed its magical power to its limit and a force that simply surrounds itself. There is no way Abel can endure.

“First of all, the wizard.”

Krak fixed his gaze on Uni, who had been firing the flame spear earlier.

It was not simply because he was annoying, but it was an unconscious choice to relieve the dissatisfaction built up against Baltar while guarding.

Because they both have something in common: they are fire wizards.

Of course, Abel did not sit still in the face of Yuni’s danger.

“I can never let you go! If he’s going to kill Uni, he’ll have to kill me first!”

“Ho… Now I have some useful eyes. Then, keep an eye on me!”

Krak’s fist exploded again.

Kwaaaaang!

The shield, which had a fist-shaped indent in the center, was even more severely dented by the attack.

But this time, Abel must have been able to overcome the shock without falling.

That made Krak happy.

Haha! Let’s see how long you can last!”

Bang! Quagwang! Pretzel Gwagwang!

The fist repeatedly hits the shield. The shield gradually lost its original form. As this happened, the burden on Abel grew.

The group tried to stop Krak somehow, but they were often knocked out with a single punch.

The only one who could handle his strength even a little was Abel, who focused on defense.

In fact, Krak could have easily broken through Abel’s defenses and taken advantage of the gap, but he stubbornly stuck to the front.

Finally, Abel reached his limit.

Bang!

“Keuuuuu!”

After a long slide across her ground, Abel fell to her knees, blood streaming down her face.

The internal organs were shaken by repeated impacts.

The shield I was holding is now a complete piece of scrap metal, so it’s hard to even call it a shield.

“Is it over now? “If you can’t stand up any longer, I will kill that wizard.”

“Ugh!”

Abel forced himself to stand up unsteadily.

It is so dangerous that even an ordinary person can knock it over.

Uni took a step forward.

“Ah, Abel! Stop! Are you okay. Because I’m fine—”

“Stay still! I will stop it. I will protect it. So stay still.”

I felt faith in Abel.

Yuni stopped in place because of her determination to never let you go from now on and to protect you even if she had to die.

Krak also grinned, as if satisfied with his beliefs.

“Good. It should come out like that. Okay, this is the last one. If I receive this, I will save that wizard! “Howang Fist (虎王拳)!”

Krak, who made a promise that could not be fulfilled, used his five wills.

Magical power formed the tiger’s maw and swelled. A fist filled with majestic force rushes in, distorting the air.

In front of him, Abel was so small.

“Aaaaah!”

Still, he did not flinch and threw all his concentration into the shield.

At this moment, I was completely one with the shield.

With some kind of enlightenment, another huge shield made of magical power was placed on top of the shield, protecting the entire area.

With the conviction of a lifetime, a shield made of magic strikes his fist.

Kwaaaaa!

There was a huge roar and a shock wave.

When the aftereffects stopped, what was seen was Abel with not only his shield but also one arm completely shattered.

“Abeeell!”

Uni immediately jumped out and wrapped his arms around Abel.

While holding him and examining him, he quickly takes out a potion and attempts to treat him.

Krak slowly approached the two.

The group, who had been quietly recovering their stamina until then, exchanged looks and stepped forward.

“You can’t touch Abel. ‘You bastard!’

“That’s right! “I won’t let you go!”

“Take us down first!”

Seeing the eyes full of determination, Krak chuckled and raised his fist.

“I may have a strange heart, but you guys can’t stop me!”

A bloody fight continued for a while.

Yas and Alyssa take turns receiving attacks, and Pernia supports by manipulating numerous daggers, while also attempting a surprise attack, looking for an opening.

They did their best, but as expected, it was not enough to handle Krak.

One by one, Yas and Alyssa were neutralized, and Pernia, who was left alone, summoned Silape and cast Tornado.

Haha! “You’re doing quite a bit!”

However, the tornado certainly dealt a significant blow to Krak, but his magical power consumption was so severe that he disappeared before he could be properly defeated.

Even the slightest wounds sustained are recovered by regenerative power, so there is no hope.

In the end, even Pernia fell after being hit by Krak’s blow.

Krak passed them and headed towards Abel.

“Sorry. It took a while. It was a satisfying fight. So let me go without pain.”

Krak showed courtesy in his own way and concentrated all his magical energy into his fist.

Oooh!

The strength becomes more and more condensed.

The intention is to kill everyone at once with destructive power concentrated on one point.

Uni looked at the blazing red river with fearful eyes, but she spread her arms and stood in front of Abel.

“You can’t kill Abel.”

“Get out of the way. “If you keep blocking her, I will kill her with you.”

“I’d rather do it that way! Because I have no intention of living alone.”

“Hmm… Is it? Then there is nothing we can do. Die.”

Krak’s death sentence was handed down.

Uni watched her fists getting closer and strengthened the hand holding Abel.

‘Someone please help me.’

She prayed earnestly.

She was okay with anyone, so she showed up and she hoped to stop the interest.

I knew that the chances of someone helping me appearing at the top of this tall clock tower, isolated from the outside world, were very slim, but I still hoped for a miracle.

And, someone responded to this wish.

“Stop.”

A quiet, but clearer voice than anything else.

The moment you listen to a presence that cannot be ignored.

Kwaaaaang!

A wind of flame swept across the ground and blew Krak away.

There is a man at the epicenter.

He wore a familiar mask and had silver hair and golden eyes.

“Tongue, string!”

Alyssa was the first to come to her senses and let out a hopeful cry.
