## Chapter 246 – The Beach Butcher
ㅡBubble, bubble.
From the depths of the sea, unknown and mysterious beings began to rise. I thought I was in some kind of dream.
ㅡSwish.
They were warriors covered in scales and seaweed.
“…What the hell is that?”
“Katt, are the fish in the sea walking now?”
“No, that can’t be…”
The sight was so mystical that it didn’t feel real. I immediately washed my eyes with seawater and stared at them with bloodshot eyes… I saw fish standing on two legs. Walking upright, even.
Huh.
Huh, huh?
Huh, huh, huh???
What the hell are those bastards!!!
“Fish standing on two legs!”
Blue scales and webbed hands!
And those unfocused, bulging eyes and huge mouths! Even those gills! They were each carrying crude knives and harpoons made from sharpened coral, launching a surprise landing!
Fishmen!
Fishmen with spears and knives had appeared!
“Uwaaaah!!!”
“Kyaaa!!”
The beach instantly turned into a slaughterhouse of chaos as the suddenly landed creatures began attacking vacationers.
ㅡSplatter!
“Kuaaaack!!!!”
As the emotionless fishmen swung their coral knives, people fleeing scattered blood and collapsed powerlessly, sinking.
People who had been swimming far out disappeared as if they had never existed.
They all vanished into the depths of the sea…!
Are these bastards an invasion force from the deep sea?!
“Shiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiit!!!!!!!!!!!!”
I screamed at the unbelievable, horrific sight. Winia hid behind me, and Claudia seemed interested, trying to walk towards them.
“The fishmen are invading!!!”
“H-Hey, you! Sis! Do something!”
I immediately grabbed Claudia, who was about to walk forward, and Winia, who was hiding behind me, by the wrists and ran to the beach. ㅡSplash! Splash! The vacationers were either already dead or had fled a long time ago!
What kind of crazy situation is this!
“H… Help! Please save me!”
Just then, a little kid, covered in blood, cried out for help.
A coral knife was stuck in his calf. He had been building a sandcastle when he was attacked by a fishman! The trampled sandcastle hadn’t protected the kid at all!
This is ridiculous!
Daring to attack children, the symbol of dreams and hope!
“What the fuck are you ball-sucking bastards doing in the ocean!!!”
Enraged, I left Claudia and Winia on the beach and ran towards the fishman. The bastard was gurgling, grabbing the kid’s ankle, and dragging him into the sea.
At this rate, it was only a matter of time before the kid became fish food!
“Kim Katt, dropkiiiiiiiiickㅡ!!!!”
I lock onto the target and use my leg muscles and acceleration to deliver a dropkick!
ㅡThwack!
The kick slams into the bastard’s back!
ㅡGweh!
The impact made the bastard gasp, releasing the kid’s ankle.
But he didn’t fall. My jumping power was much lower than expected due to the water, so I didn’t inflict a significant blow. The bastard staggered for a moment and then took a fighting stance before I could land a follow-up attack.
“Damn it!”
The body protected by scales seemed to have considerable durability. But I don’t care. I will never forgive the little shits who ruined my vacation!
“I will not forgive the bastards who tore out my heart!”
ㅡWhoosh!
Tae Kwon Do, trained to the limit, ignored the resistance of the water. Being a 3rd-degree black belt in Tae Kwon Do meant something. Just as I was about to land a kick,
ㅡGweeeeeeeck!!
The fishman roared and swung his knife, creating distance.
“You bitch!”
I quickly retracted my kick and dodged the incoming blade. The difference in weapons! The difference in weapons in a battle is enormous! Charging at an opponent with a knife empty-handed is nothing short of suicide!
However.
“I am.”
The Heavenly Demon.
“Kim Katt.”
I draw up mana. I increase my speed, increase the durability of my body, and if I can just evade one attack, I can fight him sufficiently. Believing that, ㅡSplash! I used footwork. The seawater splashed from the mana-filled kick, revealing the empty ground.
At the same time, I kicked off the ground.
“Heavenly Demon’s Descent.”
And using the rebound, I shot forward.
ㅡSwoosh!
I lowered my body to avoid the horizontal slash, and then grabbed the bastard’s waist and pushed him over. I wanted to apply a rear-naked choke, but other fishmen were approaching, and more than anything, I couldn’t lie down because the surrounding terrain was water.
I seal the Heavenly Demon Divine Art and switch to Tae Kwon Do!
“Give it back, you bitch!”
ㅡGweck! Gweeeeeck!!
I shoved my fingers into the bastard’s eyes and snatched the coral knife he had dropped. The stolen knife was extremely slippery. I gripped the handle tightly to avoid dropping it, and then pushed the blade into the inside of the bastard’s gills and spun it around.
ㅡGulp, gulp!
As I sliced him up like sashimi, the bastard spewed red blood and collapsed. I pulled out the knife and fiercely shouted while performing a sword dance.
“With a knife, there is nothing to fear, you little shits! Daring to ruin my vacation! You will pay for that sin with your death!”
I could feel it clearly from having fucked up one of them just now.
These mass-produced fishmen are weaker than me. As soon as I thought that, confidence surged. No need to see more! Let’s kill all these bastards and rescue the kid!
ㅡGweaaa…!
ㅡGwe, haack!
ㅡChweaaaaaa!!!
The bastards, gurgling violently, rushed towards me.
Come to think of it, the way these bastards walk is not normal. Is it a side effect of living in the sea? They couldn’t maintain their balance properly, and they staggered every time they walked.
A warrior’s strength comes from the lower body!
Sensing their weakness, I immediately ran towards the bastards approaching me!
ㅡGweaaaa!
The bastard holding the coral knife reflexively tried to stab me. Unfortunately, the stolen coral knife didn’t have a cross-guard, so I couldn’t use a counterattack.
I just used my strength to push the knife up and stabbed the blade into his neck.
ㅡThwack!
“That’s not how you use a knife!”
I made a hole in his neck and pulled it out. The scales were annoying, but I could cover that with my strength.
ㅡWhoosh!
Next, a fishman appeared from behind and thrust a harpoon. I used the ultimate evasion technique, the Cockroach Step, to spin around and avoid the attack, and at the same time, I charged in and stabbed the empty chest with a knife.
ㅡGweck!
The fishman collapsed!
“Claudia!”
I called out to Claudia.
She was standing in front of Winia, butchering fishmen with just kicks. Thwack! The fishman hit by the kick vomited his insides and flew away.
Her long legs and the emphasized vulva.
Her red slingshot bikini tightened, revealing her axe wound. Her breasts swayed as she rotated again and kicked another bastard.
Was the swaying too much? Her pink nipples were revealed as the chest part of her bikini slipped down. She looked around and quietly adjusted her clothes.
Good.
I briefly confirmed that sight andㅡ
“Here, here’s a knife! Take it!”
ㅡI threw the two stolen coral knives to Claudia with all my might. She ran along the beach and jumped, accurately catching the knives.
“Ugh! Slippery!”
Claudia groaned and sprinted, crossing the twin swords in a cross shape. Claudia’s figure, accelerating and getting faster, disappeared for a moment, and then a whirlwind rose, stirring up dust.
ㅡSplash!
And when Claudia reappeared on the water.
ㅡShwaaaaaaaaaak!!!
More than ten fishmen fell, cut to pieces. The bastards didn’t even know they were dying, standing there blankly before being shattered to pieces.
At the same time, guts and blood flowed out.
The sea turned red with the spilled blood of the fishmen!
Reddened sea!
“It’s a red tideeeeeeeeeㅡ!!!!!!!!!!”
I wailed and screamed in agony! A red tide! Driven mad, I grabbed the stolen harpoon and chased after the remaining fishmen!
“The basics of spearmanship are made up of Ranna Challo!”
ㅡThwack!
I pierced the back of the bastard trying to escape towards the deep sea. I immediately tried to pull it out, but it didn’t come out easily because it was a harpoon. I gave it all my strength, and the harpoon was pulled out with a chunk of flesh.
ㅡSplash, splash!
Ignoring the struggling bastard, I ran towards Claudia, who was trying to swim. No matter how well she fought, Claudia was a warrior from the desert. She wouldn’t be able to withstand the fishmen’s attacks if she went into the deep.
“Claudia! That’s far enough! You’ll be screwed if you go any further!”
“Tch…”
I immediately grabbed Claudia’s body and pulled her back to the beach.
ㅡGweaaaa…!
The fishmen, torn to pieces and lying dead here and there, stared blankly at the sky with indifferent eyes that didn’t even have eyelids, and the sea was dyed red with the spilled blood.
The surviving fishmen tried to escape.
“What… What the fuck is going on!”
My vacation!
I felt anger that transcended the limits of humanity. I chased after the bastards running away with Claudia and vented my hatred. The blue sea was gone. This place was already a slaughterhouse.
ㅡGweeeeeck!
ㅡGwe, gwejuick…!
“Die, you sons of bitches!”
There was no need to show mercy to the invaders. Remembering the times I ate sashimi at a raw fish restaurant, I beheaded the bastards. The fishmen resisted somehow, but they couldn’t beat me in swordsmanship.
The bastards fell like autumn leaves.
“Haa… Haa…”
Eventually, the situation was resolved.
All the surviving fishmen had escaped, and the fishmen who hadn’t were all displayed grotesquely as fresh sashimi.
“Kueugh…”
I picked up the little kid who was groaning.
His face was pale.
“Winia! Can you use healing magic!”
“No. I can’t.”
“Damn it!”
Winia had just been standing back there.
It was because she hadn’t brought her staff.
“Kueueugh…”
I was thinking about how to save the groaning kid when, ㅡRumble. I saw armed soldiers running from over there. Have they finally appeared? I can hand him over to them.
Claudia was washing the blood-soaked body with seawater.
“Ah, shit. Seriously, what is this? I came to the sea for once. Because of those damn fish-headed bastards… Ah, annoying.”
Winia, wearing the white shirt I brought over her bikini, grumbled. I was also on the verge of going crazy with anger. My vacation! The beach, which should have been enjoyable, had instantly turned into a slaughterhouse soaked in blood!
“Ugh… I guess I can’t go into the sea anymore?”
I put a shirt on Claudia, who had washed her body. She was currently wearing a red slingshot bikini. If the approaching soldiers saw her like that, I would feel very bad.
She also seemed very disappointed.
Soon, the soldiers approached and checked the scene.
“T-This can’t be…! The fishmen have invaded!”
I handed the kid, who was gasping for breath, over to them.
“I saved him from being attacked by the fishmen.”
“Thank you.”
A soldier who appeared to be a medic picked up the kid and quickly disappeared. The one who seemed to be the commander asked me a few questions, and I just answered about what had happened here.
“Haa… Shit. I wanted to play more.”
It seemed like the beach would be under control due to the atmosphere. Several vacationers had died, and there were a lot of injured people, so there was no way they would be open for business as usual.
Winia frowned.
“Haa… Seriously, this is fucked up. What the hell is this.”
“…”
Claudia also stared silently at the reddened sea.
There was sadness in her expression… Damn it! Seeing my girls disappointed made my heart feel heavier. I quietly deposited the species name: fishman into my anger piggy bank.
From today, all fishmen are my mortal enemies.
To relieve stress, I randomly kicked the fishmen’s corpses lying around, suppressing my inner desires.
“We will control the beach from this moment on! All residents should evacuate according to the soldiers’ guidance!”
The soldier’s shout was the final blow.
We had no choice but to trudge back to the accommodation.
“…”
Claudia’s ears drooped, and Winia didn’t open her mouth either.
Those damn fishmen bastards…!
