Chapter 145 – 35. Sinking (9)
Fought. Although she had no idea how to defeat him, Isabelle fought fiercely. She didn’t want to be buried alive, at least not in a place like this, so she cut down all of her tentacles before they could grow back and attack her.
At a time when she had no idea how much she had fought. Since when has she been covered in blood?
More than half came from the octopus, and the other half came from her body.
Sylvia That bastard…
He’s a stupid younger brother who can’t even help at important times. She was frantically fighting next to him, but in the end, she was hit with one punch and knocked down. Fortunately, he doesn’t seem to be dead and is still hiding, but… No matter how hard I hit him, he didn’t wake up.
Kugugung-!
What else?!
Suddenly the floor shakes.
It feels like my head is going to break for some reason. The land shakes constantly, as if there was an earthquake. Without even knowing if there was a problem, the boat suddenly tilted towards the deck.
Slurp- Srurrrr-
“Hey! “Sylvia!”
I’m going to turn away. The child rolls helplessly in the direction his stomach is bent. Isabel grabs Sylvia’s neck and pulls her up, thinking she can’t leave her alone any longer.
It’s going to turn. I can’t keep carrying this while fighting…
“I can’t do it. “Sylvia, you can take a break here.”
She broke the floor with her feet and threw Sylvia inside her boat.
From what I remember, Sylvia’s room was right below. As the boat moves back and forth, you may bump into furniture, but since you are a Ronin, you have a certain level of tenacity, so you are unlikely to die.
Kugugung-
Wait, but why is this like this? How far can the boat bend?
Now it’s hard to even stand on my own two feet. Only when the slope bends about 60 degrees does Isabel hold on to the rope attached to the sail.
When I asked what was the reason, I saw that the octopus was trying to swallow the entire stomach.
“Priest!”
“Little one!”
While the main body of the octopus child was revealed, I was overwhelmed by its ridiculous size. An urgent voice coming from below. Normally, it would have been so noisy that she wouldn’t have been able to hear, but when she heard the word “Priest,” Her vision lowered as if she were possessed.
Huh?
Wait a minute, saint?
Priest Isaiah barely hanging on to a wooden plank. No, even that is now on the verge of falling. Without even having time to think about it, her hand lost strength and fell down in just a few seconds.
Was it because I was momentarily surprised?
Her body automatically jumped forward as if someone had pushed her from behind.
“Saint!”
It falls. If this continues, the saint will die. Hurry! A little faster!
He fixes his gaze on Priest Isaiah and speeds up by kicking the bottom of his stomach. I hope he gets close enough to grab it and stretches out his hand.
Just in the nick of time, she grabbed Priest Isaiah’s wrist and pulled him tightly, holding him tightly in her arms so that he would never let go.
“Hey, Isabel?”
“Huh!”
Kwajijijijijijik-!
Without even having time to reply, he immediately plunges the holy sword into the bottom of the ship and slows down. Then, a rather harsh bursting sound is heard as the bottom of the boat is torn apart. After falling down for a while, the two were finally able to stop in the middle of the boat.
“Whoa… Ha… You’re welcome. “If I had been a little late, I would have been in big trouble.”
“… “
In response to Isabel’s question, Priest Isaiah looks up in silence. Is it because the shock from a little while ago was quite big? He can’t say anything and just stares as if he’s lost.
“I was lucky. I guess the timing was good. “You weren’t hurt anywhere, right?”
Fortunately, she lowered her head as if she wasn’t hurt anywhere.
Still, you never know. It was only after making sure that all her limbs were intact that she breathed a sigh of relief.
Thank god… Her hands and feet are all fine… It doesn’t seem like there are any major injuries.
There is no major problem other than the dust that may be due to rolling on the floor several times.
Damn, if she had known this would come, she should have stuck around…
I know she couldn’t help it because the situation wasn’t right, but what can I say… Seeing him trembling with fear, I felt like everything was my fault.
“Isabelle…”
“Sorry. I should have protected you…”
I held him tighter in my arms as he still didn’t understand the situation. Now, even if he has to die, he will save the saint. Even if she didn’t know anything else, her heart was desperately telling her to do so.
Kaaaaa-
Even after a short year, just for a little while. The crying sound of a guy hitting my ears mercilessly. It was so disgusting that his eyebrows furrowed as he felt the hot air coming out of his mouth.
But how do you do that…
There is no answer to the body being larger than expected. After this guy appeared, the original form of the octopus disappeared for a long time.
Hundreds of eyes embedded in the body and teeth growing out without any rules. The countless tentacles reminded me of the flying spaghetti monster seen in the Bible. No, maybe it’s even worse than that.
“Isabel, Isabel!”
As she was lost in thought for a while, Priest Isaiah tugged on the hem of her clothes. Then he urgently points to the monster’s head with his index finger and urges it to look this way quickly.
“See it over there? That shining place! That’s the Kraken’s weakness. Hero! If you destroy that thing, you can kill him.”
Suddenly he said something unintelligible.
Uh? Yes?
What on earth, on what basis… First, there is definitely something like a shining stone where Priest Isaiah points with her finger. But, how do you know and say that?
No, who would believe you if you told them to destroy something without a clear reason, saying it was a weakness? I understand what you’re trying to say, but I don’t know on what basis you’re saying that.
But was it because I was in a hurry? Or was it because I felt sorrow in Priest Isabel’s words? There was not the slightest wavering in his eyes.
Isabel could tell right away that at least she wasn’t lying.
Kugugung-!
There was no time to delay. The boat tilts forward again. If I had time, I would have asked if he was sure, but I couldn’t have any more conversation.
Will I really die if I break that thing?
Believe it or not, but I feel like I have a clear goal in a situation where I was just swinging a knife for no reason.
Dying without even being able to inflict any damage on your opponent is a scratch on your pride as a mercenary.
I finally felt like I had figured out a course of action.
“All right. Priest. Can I just destroy that? “Just a moment.”
You have to fight. Climb up the wall and place Priest Isaiah on the railing. I also pulled out the holy sword that was stuck in it. He took a deep breath and prepared to jump.
It’s huge.
The ivory-colored holy sword shines brightly. The target is his head.
Finally, he took one look at the beloved saint’s face and jumped from a high place.
@@@@@
Kwasik-!
When I jump up with my feet strong, the floor collapses without any help. Then, dust rose around. Isabel raised her sword and jumped towards what appeared to be the heart of the Kraken.
No, it is closer to the expression of flying rather than running.
It rushed towards the Kraken’s soul stone with a force and speed that is unimaginable to humans.
Wow!
For a moment, I felt that Isabel was living an absurd life. A kraken that narrows its mouth rather than trying to swallow its stomach and instead widens its vertical pupils.
When he saw that he was rushing towards the soul stone, his only weak point, he let out a scream and pulled out several tentacles that were holding his stomach and sent them to Isabel.
Hook- Whiik- Hook- Hook-
Just this much!
After checking the number of tentacles, he grabs the holy sword he was holding in reverse. Since it wasn’t a large number to begin with, it just made a horizontal line and cut down several people that were approaching.
Wow!
In the end, the tentacle, which is like its right arm, is cut off, and it screams in pain.
She slides and lands on her tentacles, which simultaneously lunge towards her. She still didn’t stop and moved forward at a fast pace, cutting down the annoying little tentacles.
If I’m good at this, I can do it, right?
Is it because the main tentacles are holding the ship? The number of tentacles entangling the surrounding area is significantly small. In the current situation, it would be enough to destroy the soul stone.
Thinking that there was only one chance, she even took out the machete hanging from her waist.
“Huh!”
It doesn’t even give you any room to react. He quickly rolled his eyes and cut off the approaching tentacles. When she feels that even that isn’t enough, she bites it off with her teeth.
I slaughtered each of its tentacles one by one using a fighting method that was more like an animal than a human.
The Kraken was completely put on the defensive by Isabel, who rushed at him like a roar with blood everywhere. Did you ever think that it wouldn’t work? He gave up on swallowing the ship and focused all his attacks on Isabel.
Wow!
The ship, which had suddenly lost its support in the air, fell from the sky in a pitiful state with more than half of it destroyed.
Kwaaaaabit*ling alright?
A huge wave that occurs as soon as a ship falls into the sea.
Isabelle, who had finally climbed onto the main body of the Kraken, was startled and turned her gaze toward the ship, even though she shouldn’t have.
For a moment… The saint over there…
She hesitates at the thought that she left him alone.
Even if you have divine power, you can’t guarantee that you will be safe if you fall from that height…
An eerie thought crossed her mind for a moment.
Whoop-! Tight!
The tentacle, which was not likely to let down its guard, took advantage of this moment, grabbed Isabelle’s ankle right in front of her soul stone, and dragged her down to the floor.
