Chapter 186 A Bloody Revenge
“Let this be the revenge of blood...”
I thought Park Hyeri may not recognize me. Still, she seemed to remember me vaguely as she looked me over before opening her mouth.
“You’re that demon!”
I smiled, as it was better for my revenge that she remembered. I raised my Ancient Flame, and hot fire sprang as I used my magic. I could not see straight because of the heat, and Park Hyeri looked surprised at my growth.
She also used her magic, and while I noticed she had become stronger, I felt that I was at an advantage. The humans surrounding us were stepping back in astonishment using protective magic.
“Leader...”
“Don’t aggravate them and step back...Damn, what’s all this...”
As I needed to see her skills, I threw all of my daggers at Park Hyeri. I knew she would avoid all of them, but I changed the daggers with the weapons the humans were holding. I felt a screech in my ears as the weapons rushed at Park Hyeri. While the ground rang as they thrust into the ground, Park Hyeri was getting away from them. The humans looked at me with flabbergasted expressions but did not say anything for survival.
The daggers changed to longswords or axes in mere moments. They hit the ground with a bang, but Park Hyeri was circling me after avoiding them. I also looked at her. An ax fell a tree, and a spear crushed a boulder. The weapons were inching towards Park Hyeri, and my attacks were beginning to threaten her now.
Since she used sound, keeping my distance from her would weaken her attacks. I would keep her at bay with the flames and tire her out with long-distance attacks. The Yggdrasil spear was recovering my magic, and I now saw various weapons stuck on the ground. The humans have left after probably deciding to give up their weapons. It was a nice choice.
“You have become stronger... is this revenge?”
I saw red at her smile as I muttered that I would kill her now. Park Hyeri rushed at me, and I used another dagger to change it to a longsword. However, she twisted in mid-air and was following the longsword’s trajectory to come at me. I saw that she was skidding the longsword with her own blade to make a sound that would come at me.
I tried to take away her sword but failed as she had ownership. That meant I had to block the sounds that will come at me.
“Levatain!”
“You said it would not take long. The Master is waiting.”
The one speaking was a mage, and I heard another voice from the opposite side.
“I know you want to enjoy yourself with a strong enemy, but we have something to do.”
I saw a warrior with a massive physique walk out. He was Go Woongjin, and he carried the bodies of the people I had selected as possible bait on his shoulder. The priestess did not seem dead yet, but her body looked broken as he dragged her.
“Those on your shoulder would have been Ms. Hyeri’s prey. That demon is an intruder, and he seems to be an interesting subject to dissect.”
Lee Hyunhak showed himself with Go Woongjin, and I now saw all of the Spider Clan members I was aware of in one spot. I had not felt them approaching due to the fight and now sensed no one else.
“We have to hurry to meet the appointment. Master does not like to wait.”
While he was consoling Park Hyeri like she was a child, she was still glaring at me.
“I told you that I did not care about the Witch of the East or the Queen of the North.”
“You know that you have been ordered.”
“I know, I know. However, I have to do something about that demon. He’s going to bother us. Don’t cut in. I will take care of him. I will rip him apart...”
The mage was the one who spoke.
“You cannot do it by yourself. It would take too much time, and the best thing to do is make this a quick fight. I think bringing him along with us may work if you’re that angry.”
Park Hyeri kicked at a stone near her foot like she did not like what the mage said, but the action showed that she agreed. Go Woongjin stroked his weapon while the mage cast a spell. Lee Hyunhak took out his longblade.
The situation was dire, and I grasped my spear as Go Woongjin jumped at me.
