Chapter 9 – Episode 9- Disaster (4)

Golden light shimmers all over the body.

As I stretched out my hand, the golden light that enveloped my body spread like the ebb tide.

Kwaaaaang-!

The golden light that protrudes in all directions squirms the body and pushes everything away.

Puddles of blood and various junk that had spread on the floor bounced off.

The shadow fiend that jumped at me was hit by a golden wave and was flying far away with its body bent in a strange posture.

I held out my hand in a daze, reflecting on what I had just done.

‘Wage Rate Law’

The necklace was cut off, and a spell suddenly appeared.

Looking at the memory of living with my grandmother as a child, it was a memory I forgot in a corner of my head.

Looking back, I still couldn’t figure out what it was.

“Kikiiik!”

The Shadow Fiend, flying far away, thumped the floor with his hammer hand and stood up.

I came to my senses at the sound and decided to do the reminiscence later.

Now, the priority was to survive and kill that guy.

What is certain is that I just learned a spell, and the condition of my dying body has been restored.

So, I might be able to handle at least one of those incomplete monsters somehow.

“Kikiiik!”

The guy seems to be excited, and he runs towards me, scratching the floor.

Contrary to the somewhat calm and thoughtful appearance he had shown before, he seemed possessed by something and wanted to attack me.

That was good news.

A beast that has lost its reason is simpler than anything else.

The Shadow Fiend waves a hand at me.

Pushing the pointed tip of the scissors, I shouted once again at the guy trying to pierce my head.

“Pay rate law (急急如律令)”

Once again, golden waves rippled through my body.

I reached out and pressed myself against the wall on the side just before releasing it.

Then, he twisted his hand and pointed it at the shadow fiend.

It was because I planned to shoot this wage rate forward, like shooting a laser from my hand, and make him hit a wall.

However, contrary to my expectations…

Whoops!

“What?”

Golden light poured out from his body.

The back was touching the wall, so I thought the light wouldn’t come out from the back, but it was the opposite.

The back side emitted a suppressed light as if it was regrettable that it could not leak out as much as I had covered it.

“Huh?”

The spell already cast will be activated arbitrarily.

A golden light shot forward.

At the same time, it was also fired from behind me.

Poo-!

The shadow fiend gets hit by the payroll law, bounces off and crashes into the wall.

But I, too, bounced off the wall and crashed into the opposite wall.

“Wow…!”

My head was spinning, probably because of the strong impact on my stomach and face.

I stumbled and hurriedly looked to the side.

Fortunately, the Shadow Fiend also stumbled and couldn’t get up easily, probably because of her strange posture.

“Okay.”

Somehow, this payroll law seemed to be a spell that I fired unconditionally in all directions, not the direction I set.

As I blew her nose and repositioned her, the Shadow Fiend again poised to charge at me.

“Yes, come.”

I clenched my fists and took a posture to shoot the payroll law at him again.

The Shadow Fiend screamed again and lunged at me.

This time, standing right in the middle of the hallway, I calmly shot the wage rate at him.

Poo-!

The Shadow Fiend floats in the air.

I thought that if I continued trying like this, I might be able to kill that guy someday.

Oddly enough, this pay rate showed a huge difference from the second one.

“Queek?! Queek…!”

The golden light spreading from the whole body was significantly reduced, and the power of the wage rate was also reduced to that extent.

“Oops.”

Not only was there a problem with the wage rate, but there were also changes in my body.

My physical condition, which had suddenly recovered, was deteriorating again after I fired the wage rate three times.

The meaning of this was clear.

There was a limit to how much I could use this spell, and if I ran out of this spell, I’d be killed by that guy.

“Kiki!”

As if the Shadow Fiend wasn’t getting tired, she rushed at me again.

Like a dog with rabies, I couldn’t even control her body properly, and the sight of her constantly running at me was terrifying.

“Sir Baal…!”

In this narrow hallway, facing him one-on-one, I had no choice but to use the wage rate rule again.

I vomited the wage rate law at him.

Poo-!

The Shadow Fiend floats in the air.

In that gap, I moved forward.

It was because they judged that if they were facing each other in the hallway, there was no hope anymore.

I ran madly in the direction he flew, and when he still couldn’t control himself, I jumped over him and headed for the door on his left.

The door leading to the stairs on the second floor of the academy.

Standing still in front of the desk, waiting, the shadow fiend stumbled up and ran at me screaming.

I sneakily noticed the guy and went through the door on the left.

Miho was lying on the wall to the left of the desk, so if the shadow fiend jumped at Miho instead of me, I was going to punish him right away.

Luckily, the guy seemed to be the only one in sight, so he hurriedly jumped at me because I was afraid I was going to run away.

Second floor.

It is much more open and spacious than the first floor.

There, I had to make a decision with him for sure.

As I climbed the stairs, I remembered the characteristics of this guy.

A big behemoth, a hammer and scissors.

As I was pondering what my weakness was, a memory came to my mind.

“Uh…?”

When the blue flame that Miho had poured out at first clung to him, the memory of the fire moving in all directions as if his black body were turning into oil.

I wondered if his weakness was ‘fire’.

Dalgrak.

On the way up the stairs, something stung under my feet.

Looking down, I saw a lighter.

It seemed that one of the people on the third floor had spilled it.

“……”

Seeing the lighter, a crazy thought popped into my head.

Only a handful of payroll laws, fire, and lighters.

“Kikiiik…!”

The Shadow Fiend screams from below and climbs up the stairs.

Seeing him crawl up his feet and hands on all fours, without thinking about it, I picked up a lighter on the floor.

It’s obviously a crazy idea, and it’s a plan that could put me at risk, but I had no options.

The salary rate I could use was limited, and there was no way I could beat that guy with any means other than this pay rate.

Before I knew it, I reached the second floor.

I hurriedly opened the door, jumped into the academy, and headed to the ‘furniture room’ where I would decide to win.

* *

Sweet scent, sweet flesh, sweet yang.

There was nowhere to fall out.

The shadow fiend clenched its huge teeth and looked at Kang Kang-jun, who was walking in front of him.

I had to eat, I had to eat, I couldn’t survive without eating.

An instinct deep in my heart was screaming.

If he ate that human, he would surely grow up in one piece.

Had to climb the stairs.

However, it staggered and could not climb well, perhaps because the fire had spread to her thighs and she had been cut off with scissors.

Suddenly realizing that the distance had widened, the shadow fiend screamed at Kang Joon and started crawling up her stairs with both hands.

‘Don’t go, don’t go, don’t go.’

Just missing it right in front of my eyes made me angry.

The Shadow Fiend slams against the wall, destroying her stairs and eventually reaching the second floor.

Arriving on the second floor, the Shadow Fiend, who was rolling her eyes to see where Jun Kang was, realized that there was a boy in one place.

‘Kaang! Caang! Caang!’

Far away, where the sound comes from.

Close the door, break something, or hear a loud noise.

The Shadow Fiend hurriedly moved her feet to where the sound came from.

The other shadow fiend reached her door and hurriedly tried to break it down with her hammered hand.

For a moment, a question popped into her mind.

Why did Kang Han-joon lock himself in this room with nowhere to escape?

What is that strange smell coming out of this door?

Because he is a shadow fiend who can think and eat people, he could not understand Kang Kang-joon’s actions that drove him into a predicament.

“Kiki!”

But in the end, the Shadow Fiend, unable to overcome her instincts, slammed her door.

Fragments of the door bounced in all directions.

Through the broken door, I could see the inside of the room.

Measures.

Inside, Kang Kang-jun had opened several boxes and had broken a lot of things.

Something that looks like a spray is commonly seen in summer, ‘FKilla.’

After confirming the appearance of the shadow fiend through the broken door, Kang Han-joon slowly raised his right hand.

A lighter was clutched in his right hand, and his thumb held down the button on the lighter.

The Shadow Fiend realized something was wrong.

But at the same time he realized it, a small sound resonated from Kang Han-joon’s fingertips.

Click.

“Pay rate law (急急如律令)”

A small ember glows from the tip of the lighter.

It started to attach to the spray particles spread everywhere.

And that moment.

The all-repelling golden light spread through the air, spreading its flames in all directions.

Whoaaah-!

In an instant, huge flames cling to the Shadow Fiend’s body.

The Shadow Fiend who jumped into the door had no choice but to swallow all the flames without a chance to escape.

“Keeeeek…! Kieeek…! Kieeek!”

Rolling on the floor, I tried to put out the fire somehow.

It was after it had already been transferred to the body.

As if consuming a shadow, the flames gradually engulfed my body.

“Fuck! Salary law, salary law, salary law!”

Then, wriggling on the floor, Kang Han-jun jumped out from behind the shadow fiend.

Kang Kang-joon ran out of the room, spitting out the salary ordinance over and over again, as if he could be touched by the flames spreading everywhere.

The golden light shimmering inside his body spread in all directions, pushing away all the flames.

Unfortunately, for a very short time, while the salary law was fading away, it stuck to a corner of Kang Kang-joon’s clothes.

Kang Han-joon screamed, and he hurriedly extinguished the flame by rolling on the floor.

But soon, seeing the burning shadow fiend lying next to him, Kang Han-joon shouted once more.

“Pay rate law!

Hwaaak-!

The flames burning the Shadow Fiend flared up once more.

Seeing that, Kang Han-joon screamed again.
