Chapter 66 – Underground Arena (5)
Blue Lightning and I are not very compatible.
No, to be honest, it’s the worst.
I’m not at all afraid of big, hard opponents.
Anyway, if you use Green Burst, the attack power is sufficient.
However, it is not easy to hit the attack itself against a small and fast opponent like Blue Lightning.
Because he uses his abilities in a way that strengthens himself, he is not properly affected by the green dust.
Of course, you can completely negate things like lightning attacks, but right now, that’s not a big deal.
“Is that the nullification ability that I’ve only heard about!”
“It’s about releasing the magic power sharing bond.”
I created a green dust dagger, trying to mess with his head with unnecessary tips.
It’s an improvised product, so the quality isn’t very good, but it can’t be helped.
I wish I had the original equipment, but…
Since it was an infiltration operation, it was a dream that could not come true from the beginning.
Parbat!
A blow like a flash flew aiming at my vital point.
There seemed to be almost no fatigue from the continuous battles so far.
I slashed it with my dagger and took a defensive stance.
The guy who was maintaining his movement speed was slightly surprised to see the attack bounce back every time.
“Whoa, it’s much better than it looks?”
Blue Lightning’s attacks were certainly fast, but fast means straight.
Besides, I watched the previous battle and roughly figured out its top speed.
An attack that is thrown obliquely as if passing by… Besides, if you roughly estimate the timing, you can block it as much as you like.
‘Don’t mess around. My sparring partner is Yeriel Frost.’
However, unlike the defense, the counterattack was not easy.
The other side doesn’t go in deeply for fear of being caught by me.
It seems that her gladiator life was not just play.
Even so, fighting monsters for endurance is stupid.
I decided to throw the odds before it was too late.
Pasut!
The green embers that had been swirling around me grew stronger.
I jumped towards the exit of the venue.
“Are you trying to run away?”
Blue Lightning pursues it without hesitation and blocks the exit.
Right after that, an intense flash of light and heat burst from behind him.
Quaang!
Weakened Green Burst.
It’s not as good as the one I used on black hair, but it’s a powerful technique in its own way.
However, Blue Lightning narrowly escaped the blast range and ran straight towards me.
I laughed out loud when I saw it.
It’s not about reading or doing technology.
That guy just accelerated right after the explosion with overwhelming reaction speed.
It was a sight as if I was spending three times as much time alone.
The weakened version of Green Burst has its power set quite close, to the point where even I can get caught up in it if I make a mistake.
Therefore, Blue Lightning had no choice but to duck towards me.
“Haha! Green Dust!”
The strangely excited and accelerating guy was going to attack and evade at the same time.
I made up my mind and squeezed my mana to the limit.
My opponent had turned into a blue flash.
As soon as I got into the most stable position, a huge shock hit my body.
Kwaaang!
“Cool!”
My left arm was completely shattered by his charge.
If I hadn’t strengthened my body in my own way, my whole body would have been crushed.
Ignoring the excruciating pain, I grabbed him with my right arm.
Surprised by how tough it was, Blue Lightning grinned.
“Oh oh!”
“Gaaaaagh!”
Han Ye-jin, a world-class therapist, is waiting outside anyway.
In a little while, Kim Jong-tae will return with reinforcements.
Even if my whole body is broken, if I survive to the end, it’s my victory.
However, the blow of conversion cut through the air in vain.
Blue Lightning hit my hand with force and avoided the super-close green burst.
Her well-developed legs kicked me out of the way, allowing me to get out of range of Green Burst as well.
“Ugh!”
“Whoa. I’ve made it this far, but you’re the first living man. It’s okay. Do you want to fuck me?”
“… You count more than my Tiamat.”
I threw away my broken glasses and smiled bitterly.
What an unexpected recruiting offer here.
Unfortunately, I already had an occupant.
“But do you know who my wife is?”
“… Wife?”
Cooong!
The party appeared before my words were finished.
With a roar, the ceiling crashed and the figure fell.
As soon as Yeriel, who remained in Korea, heard the news of her blue lightning sighting, she hurriedly flew on her Tia.
I understand that it will take over 11 hours for her to arrive even on a direct flight, but Tia was much faster than I expected.
‘That guy…Was it a surprisingly good mount?’
It’s not even the uniform you usually see.
Blue Lightning immediately recognized Yeriel.
Her ice-cold, sunken Yeriel eyes came out and glanced at her once.
“Yeah…Yeriel Frost!!”
“…”
Pasut!
Blue Lightning, who had finally regained consciousness, accelerated as if in a seizure.
The guy turned into blue lightning and ran all over the room.
What I’ve seen so far is not the top speed.
Yeriel didn’t even look straight at the opponent who was now difficult to chase with her eyes.
Yeriel let out a small sigh when she saw me in a state of disrepair, and opened her eyes even more ferociously.
She spat out, chewing each letter.
“Trash…”
The moment when the speed of blue lightning, which had been accelerating endlessly, finally reached its peak.
Suddenly, without any warning, her sprint came to an end.
She showed a movement that was almost like flying, and splattered a large amount of fresh blood and tumbled across her floor violently.
Quadruped! Kwaaang!
“Keuheuk! Oh, oh heuk?”
After colliding with her pillar, Blue Lightning finally stopped and found her own feet from a distance.
Both of her feet were perfectly still on the ground.
It was perfectly normal, except that the top of her ankle had been horrily torn off.
Her ankle looked very frightened, as if she would continue her sprint at any moment.
It felt like a sculpture with a bizarre taste.
I got to know the truth about her at about the same time as her.
Yeriel had accurately captured her opponent, who had far exceeded her sound speed, and had stopped both of her feet.
By the inexorable law of inertia, Blue Lightning seemed to voluntarily tear her own ankles apart.
Unable to run anymore, she reached out her hand out of reach and murmured blankly.
“My foot… My foot… Aaaaagh!”
The belated pain sensation created a desperate scream.
Yerriel completely incapacitated her opponent without lifting a finger.
Blue Lightning, who had difficulty retreating with her severed leg, was quickly blocked by an invisible wall.
“Oh, no. I finally became free, but I can’t do this… Heuk!”
Yeriel, who closed the distance with her expressionless, stopped her opponent’s leg once more.
She made it so that even a scream could not be heard this time, as if she was about to tear it apart mercilessly.
The opponent who overpowered me lightly is being teased like a toy.
I stopped seeing her no more.
“That… Just awesome.”
“I know.”
Kwaduk!
The invisible pressure completely crushed the blue lightning trapped in the transparent box.
Han Ye-jin, who arrived at the scene belatedly, treated her wounds and helped her outside.
“Master, you have to leave quickly. I’ll take you to the safe house right now.”
“Let’s go.”
Yeriel took me in her arms and headed outside.
I stammered, unable to raise my head.
This also could not help but undermine the authority of the head of household.
“Well, I didn’t have to come… I was winning.”
“I’m sorry. I knew that, but I’m worried.”
“This is really, no joke.”
“This way!”
We threw ourselves into the vehicle waiting outside.
Seo Ji-yu is still trembling because he can’t grasp the situation.
With Blanche disrupting the traffic lights, the car started off to the safe house without hesitation.
After a long run, we finally arrived at the place where Tia, transformed into a humanoid, was waiting for us.
“It’s safe now.”
“Master! Are you okay?”
“Hey, the blue hair is fucking strong.”
“Eh…”
I’m sorry Tia, but I can’t help but compare this.
Seo Ji-yu, who barely entered the safe house, spat out and pointed at me.
“T-Team Captain… Was it Green Dust… Mr. Yeri El knew all about that and she got married?”
“Right.”
When Yeriel calmly nodded her head, Seo Ji-yu’s face looked like it had been hit.
I decided to send Yeriel and Tia away before the sun came up.
There is no problem since we can return to the airport anyway.
“Yeriel, go back with Tia first. It’ll be a mess if you get caught coming here without permission.”
“Would you like to come with me too?”
“I’m fine. Thanks to Blanche, there’s no evidence left. I can return to the airport confidently.”
“Okay. Then…”
Yeriel glanced at Seo Ji-yu, but she gestured to Tia.
Even while I heard the sound of a huge dragon taking off outside the window, Seo Ji-yu stared blankly at me.
Kim Jeong-tae and Han Ye-jin let out a small sigh and left their seats.
“The two of you go first and rest.”
“Yes.”
“Why the hell is the Hunter serial killer doing this?”
“I originally wanted to do this, but I couldn’t. Jiyu knows my career well, right?”
“Ah…”
Seo Ji-yu, who had regained her composure a little, finally understood the context.
In fact, my motives are so obvious that you don’t even have to ask.
However, Seo Ji-yu did not finish the question yet.
“Then why did you spare me? You really don’t kill me, right?”
“Why are you willing to die? You have to keep working for me? There’s no video evidence or anything, so who do you think will believe you?”
“…”
“It’s okay, take a good rest, and let’s go back tomorrow morning. Good job today.”
I took Seo Ji-yu to her room and tried to rest a bit.
By the way, isn’t she pulling me by putting her hand in the crack of the door just before it closes?
“Go, don’t go. Stay with me.”
“What?”
Seo Ji-yu, who dyed her face red, was in no condition to bear to take it off.
Eventually I agreed to spy on her in her same room to keep her from doing her crap.
