Chapter 305 – 24. Warrior Party – Heaven and Hell (4)
“Hey. Valdes.”
“…?”
“Follow me to the clearing. Let’s stick together.”
“…Uh?”
The warrior turned his back without listening to his answer.
Valdez put on a bewildered expression at Kang Jin-hyeok’s rather unexpected words.
I thought that this day would come soon.
With the blessing of the goddess and the help of the system, the male hero has reached the Master. Now, that was all he had left. My twin sister, my lover, and my co-workers were all taken away.
The only means of reversal was the sword.
“Ji, Jinhyeok?”
Because it was said at a gathering, Yuri and other women were also taken aback.
Even when his sister called his, Jinhyeok ignored him with a cold expression and walked to an empty lot a little further away. The action of already pulling out the sword and holding it spoke for what kind of heart he had.
‘I will end your life today.’
He didn’t mean to kill him, but at least he intended to stomp on it so that he could never climb again.
He thought he deserved it, at least for himself.
“Hyung. Do we really have to fight?”
Valdez said, picking up his own sword and following Kang Jin-hyeok.
It was a reluctant expression and an unpleasant tone, but it was already known that the fact that he was holding on to the hilt of the sword was a lie. Kang Jin-hyeok and Arsha noticed it, but the others didn’t.
Valdez waited for Kang Jin-hyeok to take on the challenge from the beginning. Here he was perfectly aware that if he trampled perfectly, now he would not have the will to resist, no matter what he really did.
It’s a moment I’ve been looking forward to, but it’s foolish to accept his offer happily. He must emphasize that Jin-Hyuk Kang pushed for it, even though he didn’t want to, at least not to Yuri, Fiora, or Sasha.
“Guys….”
“Do you really have to fight?”
Unaware of the complicated story behind them, the three women looked at the two with worried eyes.
Even though they might feel disappointed or sorry for Kang Jin-hyeok, they didn’t hate him or dislike him. At least to Yuri, he was a lovely little brother who felt a little guilty.
“Noisy. Be quiet and watch.”
“What? What is that…”
Fiora was taken aback by the hero’s rather harsh tone of her.
She suddenly tried to ask why she did it, but she was speechless. Only now did Kang Jin-hyeok’s eyes see the burning hatred and anger. It was a blind eye that did not show a single reason.
“…”
In the end, Fiora didn’t say anything and went to Vilma and Arsha, who were sitting a little further away, holding Yuri and Sasha. And, like the others, he watched Valdes and Kang Jin-hyeok with a resigned expression.
“Hyung. This is your last chance. You can take it back now.”
“Don’t give a damn.”
At Valdes ‘arrogant tone his, the hero laughed at him.
He is so relaxed because he does not know that he has reached mastery yet. He would not have found a match among his peers as long as he lived. Valdez was the one who showed a similar record when sparring with the genius Sasha.
‘That carelessness will completely trample on your pride.’
Kang Jin-hyeok’s heart was full of composure and confidence.
Normally, I would have reacted sensitively to each and every one of Valdes’ words and actions, but that was not the case now.
It wasn’t that it didn’t bother me. Although he calls him hyung until the very end, he speaks in a way that seems to be looking at someone below him, and before he knew it, he started to speak in an informal way. Other than that, his gaze his, as if he didn’t care about himself, caused people to feel unbearable anger.
‘But that’s the end.’
A world of imagination bloomed in the hero’s head.
Inside, he was laughing as he trampled Valdez’s head on the floor.
Exciting thrill just by imagining it.
My heart was beating hotly.
“Come, come.”
The hero unconsciously assumed a pose he thought was cool.
He knocked himself out of his painstaking posture over several minutes. He dropped the sharp blade and flicked his left hand at Valdes, taunting him.
The look of a strong man full of composure.
He had an idea of his own.
Valdez, whose self-confidence dies and is wary, unable to take the initiative. He rushes fiercely at him and swings his sword. At first, it wears only an aura and presses its actions with sharp attacks.
‘Great. This is it.’
“If you don’t come, I… ?!”
But his predictions were wrong from the start.
The serious and ferocious spirit turned into a javelin and was fired at the hero.
He felt the terrible living feeling only from the Chimera monsters who sincerely tried to kill him. It was the first time I had ever tasted anything like this from a human. The strongest people he had ever fought, the commanders of the Holy Knights of the Goddess Church, were merely nurturing Kang Jin-hyeok as his teachers.
‘Death, ugh?’
He thought he would die instantly.
He believedly remembered that he could n’t do that, but his body did n’t listen easily.
In order to stop the imaginary sword attack witnessed by the deluded brain, he hurriedly raised the sword that was facing the ground and swung it.
Hung.
“…?!”
Of course, there was nothing there.
But that’s for a while.
Quaang-!!
“Ugh…!”
A heavy blow struck the sword of the warrior lying in the air.
“It is foolish to lower your sword in front of your opponent.
“Benefits… !! Damn, fuck you bastard… !!”
A tone that mocks oneself.
Kang Jin-hyeok’s eyes grew bloody veins.
I was ashamed and ashamed of myself for being afraid of just living. He converted that emotion into anger and carried it on his sword. The white aura mixed with the divine power was gradually dyed blue.
“Get lost!!”
Visor!
“Only with that?”
At the trash that he giggled and laughed at himself, the hero fired an aura containing murder.
A terrifyingly high mass of aura aimed at the boy in front of him, but Valdez avoided it by lightly bending his body. The hero’s eyes widened at the unbelievable appearance.
It was supposed to be a blow of conversion, but it was too vain to miss.
“The thing I just did was fine. It’s because the method is stupid.”
“This bastard—!!”
The hero, who had a lot of feelings for Valdez, turned a blind eye to the light provocation and rushed at him.
“I thought there was something to fight proudly, but there’s nothing special. Let’s finish it now.”
For the final blow, Valdes rushed at Kang Jin-hyeok.
‘Done! I can’t avoid it at this distance!’
Even in the midst of the provocation, the remaining reason cheered.
If you come this far, you will absolutely be unable to block the Aura Blade. The most obvious symbol of the Master and the power of destruction that pulverizes everything. If that was the case, I’d be sure to cut off at least one of Valdez’s limbs by mistake.
‘Really search for it, motherfucker… !’
Valdes arrived in front of him, and Kang Jin-hyeok smiled and poured all his strength into his sword.
Aura Blade.
A blow with supreme power filled with brilliant light.
Quaang-!!
“Uh, what?”
It got stuck
To the aura blade containing blue light.
“Huh…. Look at this hyung? Are you using a blade to come to Dalian?”
“You. You. Uh, how…?”
The hero looked at the boy younger than himself with disbelief.
He’s using an aura blade. It was the moment when all the presuppositions and delusions he had built were brutally shattered.
When the reality came before my eyes, I couldn’t even see the slightest hope. Thanks to the talent that was born in the wrong system and the world, I thought I could surpass him in one sword, if nothing else.
“I’m a genius.”
Valdes laughed evilly.
The only thing Kang Jin-hyeok believed in was the Aura Blade. Strength, agility, and durability. In any physical capacity, he was less than Valdez. There were occasional comparisons, but they were not significant.
And swordsmanship. It was a crushing defeat, needless to say.
Empty!
Valdes’ sword deflected Kang Jin-hyuk’s.
A warrior who didn’t even have the strength to hold his sword properly because he was in shock. His sword his flew sideways, wounding his master’s hand his. The Holy Sword, which fell without supplying mana, was nothing more than a lump of scrap metal.
“Let’s finish.”
“Uh, huh?”
While standing blankly, the sword aimed at the hero’s crotch.
The blue Aura Blade was still in the state.
All 50,000 thoughts came to Kang Jin-hyuk’s head. And those thoughts came to one conclusion. If it’s Valdez, he could have killed himself by feigning a mistake enough. So he himself dies.
‘Die… ?’
An overwhelming fear that I felt for the first time in my life.
The hero’s mind collapsed, and his legs his collapsed.
“Ah…”
His butt his slammed into the soft ground as a kaleidoscope brushed his head his. As the combat masters at the Vatican used to say, their eyes are automatically closed.
While his trembling legs his felt especially heavy, the warrior unknowingly spat out a word.
“Help me…”
Coo!!!
“…Please save me. I have no intention of killing you.”
“…Uh?”
Kang Jin-hyeok slowly opened his eyes with a blank expression.
There was no place in the body that was not healed. It was said that everything was fine.
The sword Valdez had been throwing was terribly stuck on the floor between his crotch. He pierced the hard ground as if he was cutting a cake, and he could see more than half of it stuck.
“Ah…”
His whole body His felt relieved and relieved.
He himself lived
However, the sudden release of tension and muscle relaxation led to a terrible situation.
Slurp….
“Oh, crazy. My sword.”
“…”
A foul smell spread, and my pants felt heavy.
And what was heavier than that was the overwhelming sense of despair and defeat that weighed down Kang Jin-hyeok.
On that day, the male warrior lost everything.
The affection of his twin sister, the sympathy of a woman who was a lover in the past, the friendship with a friend of the opposite sex who thought he was having an affair alone, and finally the interest of the goddess who had a crush on him. Now he had nothing.
“…”
From that day on, Kang Jin-hyeok did not open his mouth.
He couldn’t even lift his head easily. Everyone’s eyes were frightened.
Even so, she was afraid of her older sister her, who had not completely paid attention to her as her only blood relative to her. She showed no sympathy or sympathy in the way she looked at her and in her eyes her.
It was just pathetic. And it looked like he wanted something. Along with a little sorry, I saw something strange feeling. Extremely sharpened nerves warned of danger.
Kang Jin-hyeok was afraid of death even in this situation, and he was resentful of himself.
His stress his, which has reached its limit, now blames all the faults on himself.
“…”
The warrior, who became rather kind because it was broken, silently took care of his meal.
Even if others stopped him, he forced himself to continue, and now everyone was entrusting all the work to him.
So most of the work was done by Kang Jin-hyeok and another one in turn. All sorts of chores, including cooking, washing dishes, and patrolling. Although the feeling is different, Kang Jin-hyeok remembered what Valdez used to do in the early days of the party.
“…”
After cleaning up Vilma and the utensils, Vilma went straight back to her own tent.
Kang Jin-hyeok absentmindedly sat by the campfire and hit the fire.
He liked to clear his head by looking at the fire, because all sorts of negativity overtook him when he tried to think.
It was then.
“Yeah… Huh…. Hah, hah… “
“…”
A groan was heard.
A very familiar voice.
She was the voice of a woman she had lived with for 20 years.
