Chapter 727 – 727. Another Shinsoo (2)
“…”
Facing the nine-tailed fox, Erin stared at her face stiffly.
Eira and Cha Han-seong, who happened to be familiar with the nine-tailed fox, are also the same.
They face another Erin who looks the same as Erin, and they are confused because they do not understand what is going on.
Eira and Cha Han-seong had personally witnessed the appearance of a nine-tailed fox on Orbis Island, where the bodies of the previous royals of the Pernias kingdom were buried, but that was the original appearance of a nine-tailed fox.
Her Erin possessed her body and ate away both her body and her mind. There is no connection with her now.
If Erin hadn’t called another Erin, who had just appeared, a ‘nine-tailed fox’, the two must have mistakenly thought that Erin’s twins had appeared.
‘What happened?’
The most important thing is who the hell is the ‘gumiho’ that looks exactly like Erin and where did it come from?
However, Aira and Cha Han-seong did not have the space to devote their thoughts to that question.
Kyaaah!
The basilisk, which had lost one of her eyes due to Ayra’s sword attack, was raging wildly and ravaging the county of Ephrathe.
Eira and Cha Hanseong, who were already nearby, were busy avoiding the basilisk’s ferocious tails that hurriedly swung here and there.
“Oh… !”
The massive tail of the massive body flutters here and there, destroying buildings and pulverizing the ground.
A tail that can only be swung, has an enormous mass and is terrifying violence itself.
However, even in the midst of the chaos, there were two of them staring at each other without moving at all.
“…”
“…”
It was a nine-tailed fox who somehow did not like Erin and the existence of Erin, who tried to grasp the situation with a complicated expression.
In the midst of this sudden situation, Eira quickly organized her priorities and what she needed to do in her head.
“Erin! Please!”
Once a conclusion was reached, it was quick to act.
The first conclusion that Eira came to is that the woman named Gumiho who suddenly appeared in the form of Erin is not something that either she or Hanseong Cha can do about.
If that’s possible, at least out of the three, Erin is the most likely.
It’s really embarrassing and regrettable, but Eira was very aware that her Erin’s strength was stronger than herself or her Cha Hanseong.
She prides herself on being at a level where she can lead an equal fight if it comes to basic swordsmanship skills, but in other factors neither Eirana nor Cha Hanseong can catch up with Erin.
The magical power of the divine beast that has been neatly polished.
And the magic that is based on it is not something that can be reproduced even if two people try, but it is more like a talent in a special area.
Dealing with her nine-tailed fox was entirely left to Erin, and Eira decided to subdue the Basilisk as her top priority.
“Let’s go. Han Sung-ah.”
“Yes. Senior.”
Bone Eira looked at Erin with a glance, and eventually started her movement to deal with the basilisk with Cha Han-seong.
Even after hearing Eira’s request, Erin did not respond to her words.
In fact, she never had to answer in the first place.
Erin also knew deep down that she was the only one who could instinctively take on the nine-tailed fox in front of her.
Kyaaa!
To hear that she was rather concentrating on subjugating the basilisk that was rampaging wildly now, she was able to focus on dealing with the nine-tailed fox, which was close to a grateful consideration.
“Hmm. Strange.”
Observing Erin with her arms crossed, the nine-tailed fox was not in combat readiness.
Are you not willing to fight?
Or is he confident that he can crush him at any time if he wants to?
The most likely is the latter.
When Erin first finds a gumiho that looks exactly like her, the animosity the gumiho shows towards Erin is genuine.
It was more of disappointment and pitiful feelings than contempt or anger.
‘… Why?’
What do you mean by expressing those feelings?
Erin didn’t know why.
“You… Who is this?”
Erin asked about the identity of the nine-tailed fox.
“Are you not even aware of this?”
“…”
“Then your intelligence must be truly pitiful.”
The shape of the nine-tailed fox now is Erin’s body, which she robbed by taking over her mind.
Seeing this look that looked just like her own and seeing Erin not grasping her situation, she doubted her intellect.
“I’m not asking that! How the hell is another me… !”
Eventually, Erin realized.
Same looks.
But different eyes and attitude.
A face and a look that you would never see yourself.
When she remembered the feeling that she had seen another version of herself in another world.
She noticed the existence of another Illyana who might be in this world.
“You… You’re Miho from another dimension.”
“Joy. Still, I don’t think there’s any intelligence at all. And…”
The nine-tailed fox frowned and released his power.
Ugh
Feeling the oppressive pressure of the thick aura that choked her breath, Erin tensed and bit her teeth.
“Nice… !”
“Don’t call me by my first name. Lowly.”
Her intention to clearly draw a line between herself and Erin as if they were absolutely different has been transmitted through the magic of the nine-tailed fox.
“Ask me again. What the hell am I doing here?”
Originally, the nine-tailed fox’s seizure of Erin’s body is the starting point for laying the foundation for revenge against the kingdom of Pernias.
But in this dimension, that event did not happen.
It was taken to mean that the nine-tailed fox of this dimension had given up on taking revenge on the kingdom of Pernias.
“…”
Erin did not answer Gumiho’s question.
She was just staring at her own enemy under the pressure of a mighty force.
“Under.”
Accepting that gaze, the gumiho let out an absurd laugh.
No matter how much she knows how to use the power of a divine beast, even so, Erin is just a mere human.
It was laughable that she would show her hostility.
Above all, she is not discouraged even in front of herself, but she is full of momentum to start a battle at any time.
“You’re cheeky.”
Rather than solving the question of this dimension, Gumiho made it her first priority to bring Erin to her knees and submit.
“Under!”
When the gumiho made that decision, the air flow between them changed.
It was Erin who made her move first.
As she crouched down, the energy gathered in her legs was released for an instant, creating an explosive acceleration.
Perong!
The tremendous speed created by running off the ground creates an overwhelming sound that is colorless to say that it is tearing the air.
In an instant, he reached the front of the nine-tailed fox and threw the Levantine in his hand forward, aiming for the nine-tailed fox’s neck without hesitation.
However, Erin’s Levantine did not pierce the nine-tailed fox’s neck.
The moment the Levantein’s sword reached the neck of the nine-tailed fox,
[Barbarian Witchcraft (狐族姚術)]
[Changing balance]
The nine-tailed fox’s body changed into a black flame and passed the Levantein’s blade in vain.
“Uh… ?”
Erin’s eyes widened in bewilderment at her sense of emptiness, that she was not cutting into something real, but of her void.
The black flame gradually faded and disappeared in vain.
“… Indeed. Not an ordinary human This is it.”
“… !”
When Erin heard the voice of a nine-tailed fox behind her, she turned around in surprise.
The nine-tailed fox, standing calmly, is in a state of sound, as if none of his attacks were working.
The nine-tailed fox was staring at Erin with her arms crossed, just as she had shown at the beginning.
‘… How?’
Erin did not notice the nine-tailed fox calmly occupying her behind.
Having a sense that is different from that of most others, it is already very strange that she could not detect the existence of a nine-tailed fox.
‘… It didn’t just move.’
It’s not a simple story of her moving at a really high speed and taking over behind her, at a level that her own senses couldn’t detect.
For a moment, the shape of the nine-tailed fox seemed to have ceased to exist.
As if he didn’t have a substance like the snow woman or demons who existed only as mental bodies.
However, the case of gumiho is a little different.
This is because the gumiho has a real body called ‘Erin’ from the beginning.
It would be more difficult to make an existing entity non-existent than to give substance to something that did not originally exist, but the nine-tailed fox was not constrained by that.
‘I don’t know the method or principle…’
I immediately finished thinking about what to focus on.
Erin immediately spread her senses, distributing her mana around herself.
She collected all kinds of information, including the surrounding landmarks and the existence of nine-tailed foxes, and organized them in her head.
And what is felt more clearly is the ominous black magic that the nine-tailed fox is wrapped around.
“This…”
“Hmm. Did you notice?”
Centered on herself and the nine-tailed fox, the magical power of the muddy divine beast spread all around her.
“I see. This space itself is your realm…”
It is like a state full of water in a huge tank without a frame.
Even though the space itself was already taken over by the gumiho, Erin did not notice it because the magic of the gumiho that took over her space was too weak.
It must mean that in this realm full of magic, a nine-tailed fox can change its body into a fox fire or into an entity.
In other words, this space itself is in the palm of the nine-tailed fox.
“If you had realized, you would have understood that it was impossible to defeat me now. Stop struggling, calmly answer my questions, and die.”
“… Under.”
However, despite the Gumiho’s words as if it were natural, Erin sneered at her that she was full of energy and braced herself for her attack.
Seeing her fighting spirit even more without losing her fighting spirit, the nine-tailed fox frowned.
“Are you really going to try to the end?”
“There’s nothing I can’t do.”
“This space has already been taken over by my magical power. There is no chance of you winning.”
“What about that?”
“… What?”
“I know for sure that your strength is frighteningly great. However…”
Erin pointed the Levantine at the nine-tailed fox with her steadfast, confident voice.
“You just didn’t notice my movements.”
“…”
It was a straight line.
Just as Erin failed to locate the Gumiho and gave her back, the Gumiho also failed to read Erin’s movements.
Still, what enabled her to evade Erin’s attacks could only be explained by a sense of ferocity alerting her instincts.
It was possible to avoid the nine-tailed fox’s magic because it was a specialized field to escape Erinn’s attacks, but the nine-tailed fox itself was not able to read all of Errin’s attacks.
“I know that this space is to your advantage. Still…”
If given the opportunity, she was ready to rush in again and pierce the neck of the nine-tailed fox. Her eyes were like those of a beast trying to find a gap in the target.
“That’s no reason you can beat me.”
The moment he heard this confident assurance, the gumiho began to realize what an unpleasant, meaningless feeling in his heart was gradually piling up.
“To be humble is to be arrogant…”
Displeasure at the thought of a woman, her mere human being, trying to oppose him with her proud, upright eyes.
She can’t stand it as if she is looking down on herself.
“OK. Have no regrets.”
Gumiho gave up on the idea of taking a rough look.
In order to completely trample Erinn, the god who ate humans and became corrupted moved.
