156 Part 1
Green Skin 156 Hyeji Kim
“Oh? A high-class demon? There’s even an alraune...you’ll make good research ingredients . ”
I was looking at the magician in front of me .
‘Kim Hyeji . ’
She was the only magician out of the gatekeepers and the first one I faced who exceeded proportions .
“Hmm...using too much magic is not good for the skin, and there are only a few maidens left in the village . What should I do? I was told not to ambush the nearby small cities...”
I heard from Jang Ye Ri that she was a crazy bitch who bathed in maidens’ blood . While I had heard that she was in the sixties, she looked around mid-twenties at the most . I also heard that she was obsessed with youth, and from her mumbles, it seemed to be true .
We had to face her from the front since we fell from above with shields, which meant that an ambush was not possible, but the Blood Dagger Clan never picked a losing fight .
Kim Hyeji was surrounded by the soldiers she had brought along with her, and almost all of them were close combat warriors since she probably would not need other magicians . While we would have surprised them, the way they formed formations and protected their magician showed that they were quite strong . They would earn Hyeji Kim time while she finished her spell, and I slowly tapped at the ground with my Ancient Flame .
She was not casting a spell yet, and I was curious whether she was thinking that we were weak, or she really was considering her skin to be more important . We would seem trivial to her, and I was grateful rather than being annoyed . Her carelessness meant our battle would be easier .
“Let’s go . ”
I whispered in a small voice, but it would not be faint for my clan members . Loud shouts rang .
“Victory!”
“For only victory!”
“Victory! For only victory!”
“For Blood Dagger!”
The enemies were not intimidated while we shouted, and they were also shouting and raising their shields, signaling that they would not let us go .
“We will earn time, so Ms . Hyeji Kim can cast her magic!”
“Raise your shields! Raise your shields! We will endure until the spell is complete! We will endure until the spell is complete!”
“Shields!”
They were well-trained, which would merit warriors that protected a magician .
The first ones to rush were us with a loud battle cry since we had to break them open . Large magic wafted out of my opponent’s formation, and that meant Hyeji Kim had started casting . I felt I needed to move quickly and reached out to my weapons .
I threw one of Issac’s throwing daggers and exchanged it for a longsword filled with magic . This was a method I often used and had an extremely high percentage of striking a critical hit . I calculated it to be nearly one hundred percent .
An opposing soldier’s shield and armor were ripped with a shout, and the longsword struck his head . I exchanged the longsword again with the dagger and called the dagger back to my hand .
I heard screams everywhere whenever I threw a dagger .
If the focus were on me, it was inevitable that the Blood Dagger Clan members would come flowing in . While I had not swung a sword, the guy next to me lost his head . It was Gark who came out of nowhere with a longsword .
“Me Half Blade will follow Blood Dagger!”
Gark’s brother Hark appeared next to him, who sliced a soldier’s body with four swords .
“Mirror Blade is here! I will follow Blood Dagger!”
They always worked hard to follow me, and they also had become stronger . Those with goals always did .
While we had made progress, there was still some distance . However, Hyeji Kim was entering my sights, and she had finished casting . She must be preparing to shoot the spell .
Actually, in the case of magicians whose attacks were long-distance, Black Spear was at more of an advantage than me . However, the reason I chose Hyeji Kim despite knowing that was because she was the only gatekeeper who had a weapon that had not yet recognized its owner .
‘Weapon exchange . ’
“What?”
The dagger immediately changed to Hyeji Kim’s staff, and the magic that had begun cannot be stopped .
“......”
While the magic had burst out, spells without catalyst would become weaker . However, the first spell came pouring down at me with astounding force . I jumped up and put magic inside the Ancient Flame, and a large magic orb without any assigned properties was flying at me .
‘I can slash it . ’
There was no reason why I could not, and when I struck right after I continued to change weapons, I felt a diagonal line burn up in the air . The magic orb was unbelievably cut in half, and my clan members also opened their mouths in surprise . The magic in the Ancient Flame and the critical hit interacted with each other for an amazing sight . However, I could not afford to be relieved yet .
“You bugs!”
Hyeji Kim must have been casting three spells, including the dispel .
“Die!!!”
A massive pillar made of light came out of her ordinary dagger, and she showed that she truly was strong . It was magic fitting for someone who was partly in charge of this city, and that dagger burst out the strongest magic I had seen in my life .
“Aegis!”
However, I put in magic, as much as I could, into the Aegis Ring and reached out . Part of a shield formed in front of me and the effect of this item that unconditionally blocked a fatal attack was beyond imagination . An attack that could not be blocked was now obstructed by the shield and scattered everywhere .
“F...for Blood Dagger!”
“For Blood Dagger!”
My clan shouted in joy as I continued to show them amazing feats . While I used up a lot of magic, I still had some left . I lowered my hand .
I saw Hyeji Kim look at me in despair, and she looked like how I had faced Park Hyeri for the first time . I smiled widely .
“Ahhhhh!”
She was shooting magic like she was deranged, but they could be blocked . Orbo was using magic on an enormous shield, and it bounced off all magic aimed at us . While I was uncertain whether I could summon Aegis again, I enjoyed how she self-destructed in fear . I slowly unsheathed a sword as I faced them . It was Dain’s inheritance .
