196. Black Seed (4)
I wiped my cheeks.
“...”
Blood splattered from Delphine’s body.
The guy Adele had been praising as the strongest in the empire turned to blood at one gesture from that woman. without any resistance.
“Bitch like a bug.”
Persene looked at Delphine’s corpse with contempt, then moved her gaze to me.
A soft smile formed on his lips.
“You are a world apart from that scum who moved without thinking or backing. The way you killed our comrades efficiently and efficiently was impressive.”
I frowned.
Judging by the way he speaks, it seems to be out of the category of an ordinary monster.
“Did you think you didn’t know that we were sacrifices for your heroes’ growth? How long did you think we would just die in silence?”
Persene grinned.
“I don’t know what other worlds are like, but we have a great prince, His Highness.”
I lowered my stance.
to be able to move at any time.
The guy in front of me shattered Delphine in one blow.
By using unknown magic.
I couldn’t be careless even for a moment.
“Oh my, there’s nothing to be so vigilant about.”
Persene covered her mouth and smiled gracefully.
‘...It’s twisted.’
I hope something will happen today
There was no Xena, no Velquist, no Amkena now.
It was just me.
‘Let’s turn off the time.’
It is supposed to communicate with the waiting room periodically.
If we can’t reach you by morning, we’ll immediately dispatch a rescue force.
“What is your purpose?”
I opened my mouth.
“Revenge?”
Persene laughed bitterly.
“I’m not really interested in revenge. We’re done there. Here we are, just like the Taoniers, we’re just dregs.”
“So what?”
“The first thing is to pay back the bitches who insulted us, no, a hundredfold, a thousandfold.”
If you don’t care about revenge.
Persene threw Delphine’s bloody antlers to the ground.
“The second is...”
“Is it liberation?”
“I don’t like men who stop talking. Well, I like it. Liberation, that’s why. Since it happened like this...”
Buluk.
Black veins squirmed around Persene’s eyes.
Persene gritted her teeth as if she felt considerable pain.
“I’m going crazy every minute, so every day feels like hell.”
“...”
“But revenge or liberation are secondary goals. We don’t obsess over trivial things like that. We just follow the prince.”
Persene cupped my cheek with her hand and muttered with a hazy expression.
“Ah, Prince...”
It seems that he is out of his mind.
I turned my sword I was going to slit my throat if I saw an opening, but even as I was wandering around, his fingers were pointing at me.
“We will... surpass.”
“...?”
“And we will liberate them. All who suffer. That is our cause. That is the will of the great prince.”
Jump over.
Liberation.
Suddenly, a thought ran through my head.
what is their purpose
‘Did you see those idiots?’
I will overcome the bondage of heroes and monsters through missions and fields.
is that possible?
“Looks like you’ve noticed. As expected, Hero-nim is smart. It’s worth paying attention to. I think it would be perfect if I did it with the prince’s left arm. Since I’m the right arm, it’s absolutely not possible.”
“Are you recruiting now?”
“no?”
Persene squinted one eye at me.
“I’ve heard of your performance. I’m saying this because it’s a waste to rot your abilities. Isn’t that enough to be a hero? Come on over here. I’ll treat you well.”
is it.
The reason why this guy didn’t openly fight me and explained their goal in detail was to attract me.
Anyway, I have only one thing to say.
“The answer...?”
“Eat shit.”
It was then that his finger pointed at my heart.
I lay face down on the floor.
Aaaaaang!
With the explosion, the wall on one side of the barracks flew like torn paper.
“Ahahahaha!”
A merry laugh wafted through the dust.
‘Here...’ It’s
disadvantageous.
I threw myself into a hole outside.
After that, he landed on the ground while spinning his whole body in the air.
[I’ll tell you that I made a foolish choice!]
Bang bang!
A personal mission?
‘X-foot...’
There is no time to mumble.
I hurriedly left the house.
More than half of the contingent camp was devastated.
‘Begin with your mind.’
I gritted my teeth.
You can die if you mess around.
Even if it’s the first time you’ve been through it, if you keep your cool, you’ll find a way to survive.
This mission is to escape.
It was a personal mission that could only be carried out by myself, and there was an additional condition attached.
Me and Freea are alive.
Then...
we need to find Freea first.
His lodgings were located quite outside the camp. I turned and ran. In the air, Persene’s magic bombardment was still pouring down.
‘Is that bastard’s magical power infinite?’
I think I shot a thousand magic orbs, but far from getting tired, I’m still humming.
“What should I do...”
The article was flustered.
Behind them, similar-looking soldiers hesitated.
In case of emergency, they gathered at the muster position according to the manual, but there was no commander to give the order. I approached all these guys.
“You...”
“Listen to me.
“What! Captain? It can’t be...”
“Shut up. Gather the scattered children and run outside the camp. Save at least one more person.”
“No, the captain’s order...” As
I furrowed my forehead, the knight hesitated and bit his lip.
“Ah, I see!”
“Okay. Once you’ve gathered enough, go to the wharf and secure the airship.”
“Move! Gather troops and escape!”
He is quick to judge the situation.
It must have been that he ate a lot of kalbab.
I patted the knight on the shoulder and ran to Freea’s quarters.
Had it been like that for about a minute?
bang!
Beyond the barracks, soldiers soared several meters high.
“Aaaaaagh!”
It came together like a ball of stone and bounced up.
after a while
Patter. purpuck. puck. Perfuck.
The soldiers who flew high fell all at once.
‘There is someone.’
I gave strength to the hand holding the sword.
“...!”
Something appeared before my eyes.
I instinctively held out my left arm.
[Unique skill ‘Black Dragon Rin’ activated!]
[This hero is immune to physical damage!]
Quaang!
In an instant, my vision went blank.
My body flew away at high speed and landed on a mix of rocks and wood.
“...great!”
What kind of insane strength...
couldn’t even offset it with the black dragon?
“Hoo.”
A middle-aged man walked out.
[Beast King]
[Kiadni Vikshabi Lv.???]
A man with brown hair resembling a lion’s mane, with his muscular upper body exposed, was looking at me with curious eyes.
“To think that he could withstand my one stroke. It’s amazing.”
“You bastard...”
I wiped the blood from my mouth and staggered to my feet.
[How about this?]
Kung.
Then he got down on his knees again.
“...town?!”
The right hand grabbed his own neck.
Woodeuk. Power went into his hands.
My left hand moved of its own accord and pulled out the dagger from the back of my belt.
‘This...’
Did you take control of your body?
The blade in his left hand was pointed at his heart.
I could barely move my eyes while on my knees.
[Saint of blindness]
[Irene Lv.???]
A small girl was standing in front of me.
The girl in the white nun’s uniform had her left eye narrowed.
[Hero, you die here.]
“...Fuck it.”
There is no need to hesitate when this happens.
I bit my tongue hard
before the dagger in my left hand pierced my heart .
[‘Han (★★★★)’ has entered Exceed state!]
