Chapter 546 – The Apostle’s Fate (5)
Scenes unfold one after another that you might be able to see only once in your life.
Francis Meyer, humanity’s greatest hero, is in critical condition.
Also by our allies.
Betrayal…, It wasn’t.
Even while he was losing his mind, Francis was smiling, and Kim Do-jin, who stabbed him in the back, had a pained expression on his face.
‘You asked for it…’
There must have been a discussion between the two in advance.
When I found out, I felt sorry for Kim Do-jin.
Because I saw how much he respected and was close to Francis.
‘It’s so pitiful.’
What on earth did it feel like?
How does it feel to stab something you love so dearly with your own hand?
‘If it were me…’
What if you have to stab Kim Do-jin to save everyone?
If I had to stab my father, Son Si-woo, instead of him…
“Ah…”
I don’t know.
It’s so overwhelming that I can’t even imagine.
But I understand this one thing.
‘I think it would be better for me to die.’
It was that terrible.
The shocking scene did not end there.
Thanks to the sacrifices of Francis and Kim Do-jin, they succeeded in bringing Jinjo to his knees.
But didn’t Viktor Vadim, whom he thought was dead, suddenly appear and steal his heart?
“Ah… !”
In the blink of an eye, a new Jinjo was born.
Looking at the situation, it seems like they were waiting with bated breath for this to happen from the beginning.
What is even more shocking is the fact that he is the apostle of the Seven Deadly Sins that the Guardians were targeting.
True Ancestor and the Seven Deadly Sins.
The two forces, which were too much to deal with alone, became a greater force and attacked our allies.
A desperate crisis.
A time when everyone’s lives were in danger.
Kim Do-jin has awakened.
“…”
What on earth is that unpleasant energy?
I don’t want to get close because I feel like if I touch it, my true feelings will be revealed.
Ironically, that energy saved everyone and laid the foundation for a counterattack.
The end has come again.
It was a time when there was nothing I could do, so I was helplessly staring at Kim Do-jin’s back.
Purr!
A bright flame rose from his sword.
The prosecutor’s office is the dream and goal of prosecutors.
Seonghwa, who seemed to have gone one step further, spoke to her.
Now, look.
And realize.
The level you want to reach.
What do you lack right now?
“…”
The Red Sea rushing in, shaking the entire city.
The sword of a shabby human standing in front of great nature cuts through the sea.
Son Seo-yeon followed suit.
The blazing sword, his back.
And the look he gave me before parting the huge wave was telling.
Follow in his footsteps.
Then you can see it.
A vast world that cannot be seen because it is blocked by a thick wall.
Pop!
I followed, holding my sword.
“Seo, Seoyeon!”
Without even paying attention to Han Joo-yeon’s urgent cries.
Kim Do-jin and Viktor Vadim stand at the end of the road after overcoming waves that were split in half and lost their power.
Countless battles go back and forth between the two, and the end soon comes.
As Kim Do-jin’s sword, like a dazzlingly burning torch, advanced, she let out an exclamation.
“Ah… !”
You finally won.
This tiresome battle is now over.
At that moment, the words my father and Kim Do-jin used to say came to mind.
-“Remember, daughter.”
-“Keep this in mind, senior.”
-“An opportunity is a crisis.
”
The moment the two people’s voices overlapped clearly, the sight in front of me began to look different.
Although it was clearly an opportunity to end in victory, it seemed like a crisis.
And that judgment was correct.
“Baekhwayo…”
It’s been a while since I saw you.
My father’s swordsmanship that I saw only once when I was young.
It is perfectly reproduced in Kim Do-jin’s hands and takes on the flesh of Viktor Vadim.
But that was it.
The flower in full bloom could not be cut to the bone and fell down soaked with blood drops.
On the contrary, it was Kim Do-jin who had his bones cut.
Piyung-!
“Ah.”
It is pierced.
His body.
Piyuuung-!
And countless times.
“No!”
Kim Do-jin’s new type that slowly falls apart like the previously fallen flower petals.
At that moment, an anger I had never experienced before enveloped my entire body.
“Ugh…”
I felt like it was my fault that he was falling apart.
Because I am powerless.
I felt like I couldn’t follow him properly and made him struggle alone.
What follows heavy self-accusation is murderous intent.
Viktor Vadim is reflected in his eyes, which were once hot but then turned cold.
‘I’m going to kill you.’
Definitely.
No matter what I do, just like that.
‘I will kill you.’
She was always lacking.
If there is too much, it becomes poisonous, but if there is not enough, it becomes a problem.
The expression of a fierce will to kill the opponent with sincerity.
It finally filled up and grew like a sharp awl in front of her, hitting the wall.
Kuung-!
The sound of a collision heard only by her.
At the same time, the tightness that had been squeezing her chest disappeared and finally began to show.
A new world appeared beyond the helplessly collapsed wall.
[Agility has reached 100!]
[Ability limit exceeded!]
[New traits bloom.]
[Acquire the trait ‘High Speed’.]
Movement becomes faster.
No, not just movement, everything accelerates.
Thoughts and flow of magical power.
The magic power that quickly builds up in the sword accumulates and forms on the sword in a clear form.
Geomgang.
The best skill that can only be fully performed by becoming an S-class hunter.
I run away with a cold blue energy in my arms.
The distance narrows before the other person even realizes it.
Just before swinging the sword, a small voice is heard from Kim Do-jin, who falls down.
“Party… God.”
Only then do I realize.
The pinnacle of the big picture that Kim Do-jin was painting was none other than himself.
It exists almost unconditionally, especially among strong people like Viktor Vadim.
This guy is a lifesaver to save my life.
So Kim Do-jin looked ahead, no more, no less.
I decided to take the opponent’s last move myself and leave the rest to Son Seo-yeon.
There is no particular reason for choosing her.
Because he was the closest person to S-class in this position.
Because I was confident that I could overcome the wall if given just one small opportunity.
When she noticed this, she felt her heart pounding.
‘You trusted me.’
Because he trusts himself so much.
More strength goes into the hand holding the sword.
‘You can never miss it.’
Because I can’t let the opportunity he gave me by risking his life go to waste.
She sentences.
“Die.”
The tip of the sword, which pierces the spot where Kim Do-jin was standing a moment ago, pierces the exact center of the heart of Viktor Vadim, who was standing confident of victory.
Phew-!
A refreshing sensation that I have never felt before flows through my palms.
“Krak…, Cough… !”
The momentum that had commanded the entire castle just a moment ago disappeared in an instant.
The skin becomes increasingly shriveled.
As she lies dying, Viktor Vadim’s gaze turns to her.
“How… Uh, when…”
An expression of complete disbelief at the death that is strangling his entire body.
She starts the fire.
“Remember.”
Without hesitation, he pulls out the sword stuck in his heart.
Puhak!
“Wow… !”
Continue speaking.
“An opportunity is a crisis.”
“… Ha, haha.”
Laughter leaking out.
I was devastated.
“Ha, there’s only one step left…”
Dying without being able to take the only step left to achieve my dream.
Whisk!
As he fell helplessly, he looked up at the night sky revealed beyond the open ceiling and muttered.
“Gulasi…”
How can you abandon me?
He closed his eyes with a brief resentment toward the god who had abandoned him.
* * *
The red barrier that blocked external intrusion disappears.
As the full light of the sun and moon began to shine, the red earth quickly regained its original appearance.
Wallachia.
One of Romania’s three regions has finally begun to return to its fold.
Without any time to enjoy such joy, the raiding party had to move quickly.
“Hurry…, We need to move it quickly.”
“Everyone moves!”
Many colleagues died.
And dying.
Among them were Francis and Kim Do-jin.
“Clean up after yourself later!”
“We have to save people first!”
The attack team leaves quickly.
Around the time when they completely disappeared from Wallachia.
“Ah…, There is♥”
A woman appeared at the top of her castle, wearing her black nun’s robes and her breastplate.
“Master, it’s here!”
Michelle waving her hand vigorously behind her
There, a man wearing a deep black robe walks slowly.
Son Si-woo stands in front of Viktor Vadim’s now wrinkled corpse.
He asked, pointing his index finger at the corpse.
“… “This is our goal?”
“Yes that’s right. The apostle of greed.”
There is only one reason why he came to this far away land.
To restore a broken body.
The final target for that was the corpse in front of us, the apostle of greed.
“… “You’re already dead.”
When he spoke with a frown, Michelle answered with an innocent smile.
“Yes! So you don’t know how fortunate I am. “If I were alive, it would have been a huge pain.”
“… ?”
“This person, no…, Should I call him a vampire? Anyway, it’s pretty strong. “Maybe if I were still alive, my master, or I would have died?”
He could hardly understand what she said.
“… No matter what, it’s meaningless if you’re dead. “I have to kill him myself.”
“Hehe, you don’t have to worry about that.”
“What… ?”
Michelle sits down somewhat.
Her hand goes towards the open heart.
Eventually, the gloomy gray magic that rises flows through her palms and fills her heart.
Exciting!
The heart begins to beat again, albeit slightly.
Michelle urgently calls Siwoo Son.
“Now is the time, master!”
Unlike her impatient nature, Son Si-woo was embarrassed.
My heart, which had stopped, suddenly started beating.
“W-what did you do…”
“Oh my gosh, I don’t have time.”
Michelle grabs Son Si-woo’s wrist with her other hand and leads him.
“Go ahead and stab me. If I don’t seize this opportunity, my body will never recover.”
“… !”
Questions that fly away at once.
It wasn’t important.
Whether dead humans come back to life or not.
The only thing that matters now is recovering this rotten body.
Sereung
Slash straight down with the drawn dagger.
Phew-!
The dagger that roughly dug into the skin once again brought an end to the heart that had begun to beat weakly.
Losing vitality again.
However, it did not disperse and headed towards Son Si-woo with the dagger that pierced his heart.
“Keuok!”
He lets out a painful scream in pain as if his heart is being held tightly with his hand.
Finally, she takes her hand away from Viktor Vadim’s body and whispers into her ear.
“Even if it hurts, you have to endure it. That’s all – the body’s recovery process?”
“Sigh… !”
Son Si-woo grits his teeth.
It’s definitely as she said.
The strong prison energy around the heart is slowly released and begins to circulate throughout the body.
I feel it every time.
My body, which had been getting heavier day by day, started to become lighter again.
“I feel it…”
A flow of magic power that I have rarely felt.
A vitality that she had never felt before was filling her whole body.
It was opened at the same time.
Pieces of memories that were tightly bound together due to insufficient qualities.
One by one, I delve into her head and let her know.
‘Ah, it was something like this.’
Realize.
How this body became strong.
Also, how should I handle it properly to gain strength?
“Whoa.”
Son Si-woo lets out a long breath and raises his body.
Michelle saw.
The power radiating from his eyes.
A pure energy built solely through training and refining, without being swayed by any tricks.
Finally came back.
Son Si-woo back when he was called the national hunter.
“Congratulations, master♥”
Michelle fawns over him.
She licked her lips quietly.
I moistened my lips, parched from extreme thirst, with my tongue again and again.
