Chapter 85 – 85. Destiny
What appeared in the gap of time was a huge ‘eye’ floating in the sky.
No.
It was ‘eyes’.
Among dozens, hundreds, thousands and tens of thousands of eyes.
Only one.
Only one of the many eyes was looking down at Rigo.
Those eyes contained everything about Rigo.
The blood that stopped flowing out. Eyeballs in both hands. Seeing you screaming in pain.
“What…?”
And me
Huge eyes stare at me, who has lost her voice in a world that has stopped. At that moment, all the eyes that had been looking at different places began to turn their eyes to me.
One becomes two, two becomes eight, and eight becomes tens.
Eventually, when all those uncountable eyes are looking at me.
“…What?”
An audible buzz in your ears.
Incomprehensible, incomprehensible, something that alternated between blessing and curse flowed into my head.
Something is being said.
I can’t hear it, but I feel it.
“…?”
It was there.
Anything I can accept.
The hum stops.
The talk is over. The eyes of the pupils were scattered, as they had been the first time. Eyes returning to where they were originally looking.
The eyes that looked at Rigo were the same.
As the eyes that had been looking at him indifferently blinked, a huge shadow covered Rigo. The eyeball he was holding in his hand disappeared.
The gaps in time are sewn up.
“…What the hell.”
A voice is heard.
When I turn my head, I see Ryu Eun-hwa, who is astonished.
After that, even Jo Yoon, who has a similar expression. Their eyes are not on me, but over my shoulder.
He was pointing at Rigo.
“Reverse Monster…”
A black figure shed tears of blood was standing where he turned his head, following the voice that scattered leaving traces.
Kwajik.
A rupture sound heard in an instant.
The space next to Rigo, who became a reverse monster, is out of alignment.
Unless my eyes are bad.
“…”
The world is broken.
In that broken place, what is visible through the small pieces of the world that have fallen off is a familiar landscape.
A place where several cars are parked and a private pension and open-air bath are surrounded by nature.
It was obviously on top of the pension where the lovers were sleeping.
Kwajik!!
Rupture heard again.
As the broken pieces fall, Rigo’s head, which was shedding bloody tears, turns towards it.
I gripped my sword.
If that
If that reverse gate I think is correct.
“Where are you turning your eyes?”
You’ll never go, you Sivalum.
Execute a provisional contract for Ryu Eun-hwa.
At the same time, he spurred the ground and swung his sword at Rigo, who was distracted in the gap.
‘The strong current of the heart.’
Thud!!
The sword and magic strike Rigo’s head.
However, the blow with the whole body only made the guy take a few steps back.
Fortunately, his head turned toward me.
“Mr. Daewoong!”
“!!”
The moment I thought Rigo had taken a big step.
Black nails were coming to rip my face off.
As I hurriedly ducked his back to avoid the attack, his chest burned. The guy who swung his other hand ripped off my jacket and drew solid red lines all over my body.
“Kuh…!”
As he backed away from the roar of his fire, Rigo, who spun his body, whipped his tail like a whip.
Caan!!!
It was none other than Ryu Eun-hwa who stopped it.
She asked, swinging her dual wielders and flicking her tail, adopting her characteristic posture.
“Are you all right?”
“As you see.”
The pain didn’t go away, but it wasn’t to the point where I had to suffocate. As she lowered her posture and stood next to her, a spleen voice came.
“I’ll stop you, so in the meantime, Dae-woong and Jo-yoon…”
“Don’t talk nonsense.”
“It’s not bullshit. As strange as it may sound, I suddenly got stronger. So I’m good enough…”
It was I who gave it that strength.
And there’s no way she could catch that guy alone just because her stats went up by 15.
There.
“The place where the reverse gate opens is where my lovers stay.”
“…”
“Even if I die, that Sybalum can’t go outside.”
“…Really, he’s a man fit for a big heart. Mr. Daewoong.”
The chatter ended there.
Rigo, who had been playing with the strength of the strong in front of us, started moving again.
“Coming!”
The dual swords swung at Rigo, who was approaching at explosive speed. He seemed to disappear for a moment, but he was waving his claws beside him before he knew it.
With the sound of her tongue clicking, Ryu Eun-hwa, who turned her body, barely deflected the guy’s attack.
She and Ligo, reeling from her clashing power.
Dig into the gap and swing her sword.
From the bottom to the top, the sword drawn in an oblique line while encased in magical energy struck the dark side of the sword.
However, it was to no avail.
As before, Rigo was counterattacking me as if nothing had happened. However, it would not have been a meaningless attack.
Because Ryu Eun-hwa’s double swords fell like lightning before her rushing nails.
Bang!!
This time, the guy who staggered greatly to see if there was a blow.
When he tried to lower the double wielder held high above his head once more.
“!!?”
Rigo, who stumbled, or pretended to stumble, burrowed inside her in an instant.
“It’s Undine!”
That’s Jo Yoon’s voice.
A fairy appeared in front of Ryu Eun-hwa and shot her water stream towards Rigo’s face. Thanks to that, the fingernails that were aiming at her abdomen cut through the air, and the dual swords filled with anger were pierced.
This time, Ryu Eun-hwa came out and swung her sword at the staggering guy in pain.
Colossal river currents.
Two magical powers and two swords hit the black body. It collided with the bounced guy and the large eyeball stone statue and fell.
“…Not yet dead.”
Know.
Because I saw a guy who slowly raised his body with my eyes. While holding the trident lying beside him.
‘Oh… Shit!’
I forgot.
The Beast Hunter’s Swamp, the boss monster there, Rigo, is a shaman, not a warrior.
“Stop!!”
Ryu Eun-hwa and I are running.
However, by the time we kicked off the ground, the trident had already been lifted into the sky.
The harpoons that appeared out of the air were thrusting down towards us.
Bang!! Thump!!
“Ooh, Undine!”
As he ran frantically to avoid the explosion, the fairy sent by Jo Yoon once again shot a stream of water at his face.
That was a mistake
Rigo’s hollow eye sockets caught him.
Enraged, the trident fired once more into the sky, and a huge harpoon emerged and landed on his head.
Kwawaang!!!!
The harpoon explodes, swallowing my cry to evade.
No way, my gaze caught Jo-yoon, who was bouncing off with a water-colored protective film.
‘Thank god.’
For not dying
I let out a sigh of relief and turned my gaze back to Rigo. A trident that strikes the ground away. From that look, I felt that he was tired.
Now was a golden opportunity.
Ryu Eun-hwa also noticed Rigo’s condition in the same way. We spurned the ground at the same time and ran at him.
They threw out their tridents to intercept us, but it only confirmed that we were exhausted.
Thud!! Thud!!!
Attacks directed towards him.
The guy crouched down on his body, unable to even fight back.
The problem is.
My sword and her twin wielders.
My cosmic and her cosmic.
The truth was that he couldn’t be fatally wounded.
You can hit, but you can’t kill.
Even with all my might, I couldn’t slash this damn black body.
My sword and her dual swords are getting slower.
Conversely, Rigo, who had recovered his strength, got out of his crouching position and was now blocking the attack with his arms.
Damn.
I remember what Lee Soo-ri said.
The absolute difference between class B and class C. It’s painful to know why they didn’t call the C-class when the reverse gate appeared.
That’s when you hear a puck.
It was the sound of Ryu Eun-hwa, who was swinging her dual swords, flying away after being hit by her tail.
The guy started fighting back.
The golden opportunity was gone and hope turned to despair. His claws come to take my life.
That moment.
‘…?’
The broken world is back to normal.
At the same time, someone, something laughed at me for feeling despair, even for a moment.
And whisper
Because I haven’t fallen yet. Because I’m not dead yet. It’s too early to give up
Wield a sword
A struggle close to the feet.
Just like how he swung his sword over and over again to kill a large slime.
I swung my sword to knock him down.
Squeak.
Black rain falls
Flying black object.
Rather than figure out what happened, he chooses to swing his sword again.
Squeak.
I can feel the magic power on the sword.
Originally, the mana that should have been spread widely was compressed and compressed into the sword.
Squeak.
Why and how
Without even thinking about it, I swung my sword once again.
A fountain of black blood pouring down the face, and a sword shattering at the same time.
When he came to his senses, he saw Rigo’s body split in half.
“…What.”
As if possessed by something, I swung the sword and looked at the sword with only the handle remaining.
“Daewoong..?”
As Ryu Eun-hwa’s voice is heard, the scenery changes. I blinked and before I knew it, we were back in the real world. Ryu Eun-hwa, who sat down as if her strength had been exhausted, and Jo-yun, who was lying down next to her.
And me covered in black blood.
The eyes of other hunters pour in, and a commotion occurs around them. The doctor runs in with the soldiers, inside my jacket pocket.
Wooooo!!
The smartphone was vibrating vigorously.
