Chapter 704 – #141_The Silent Witch (4)
#704
One.
The back barrier, which had been unfolded exactly to the size of the playroom, is lifted.
In the playroom, which regained its hemispherical shape, there were no traces of intense battles.
Only the aftermath of the tsunami caused by the giant scattered golden mana like hail.
“…….”
Like this, when you are immersed in the lingering afterglow after a magical battle, you can understand the arrogant witch’s way of thinking.
Absolute power that mortals cannot reach alone.
With the ability to cause miracles one after another, most people seem insignificant.
Unlike the ignorant crowd, it would be more difficult not to be permeated with a sense of privilege if you are immersed in sentimentality that seems to be in contact with the truth of the world.
However, this elevation subsides as blood adrenaline levels and heart rate rise.
“Geuk…. Ugh… !”
And the tired body and mind capture the loser of the fight.
Rosie, who was hit by the giant’s shockwave, was devastated.
It reminds me of an elk that was roadkilled.
In fact, the damage done to Rosie by both magical and physical impacts was no different than when a normal human was hit by a dump truck with her bare body.
The reason Rosie was able to maintain her human form instead of blood clots was because she activated defense and super-regeneration with the magic stored in the workshop.
“Hey….”
Rosie, who raised herself up with her broken limbs and spurted bubbles of blood, was looking at Siwoo with eyes tangled in an unknown color.
After a slow recovery, the airway that had been crushed was secured.
Rosie’s first line with a half-air, half-blood voice.
“You…. Lee Fuck Baby…. Foul play or something….”
For her, this was not a proper duel.
It is no different from Siwoo overturning the board during the location board and blowing a bamboo stick.
I thought about it, calmly accepting the resentment that was shooting at me.
The magic battles he had experienced so far were different from simply aiming a gun and pulling the trigger.
Although it is an act no different from a gunfight in that it is a ‘fight’ in which each other’s lives are staked, there are numerous head-to-head fights and psychological warfare.
In this process, a strange sense of solidarity arises, admiring, astonished, and sometimes praising the other person’s wit.
Perhaps this reflects Siwoo’s defense mechanism, which is reluctant to kill.
Although she became a witch, it took only a little over two years.
Siwoo’s values as a modern person are still much stronger.
Murder is portrayed very lightly in the media, but we know how heavy it is to end someone’s life.
How much more, if it did not take place during the battle, but was done in the form of ‘execution’ after the battle, how many defenseless people could be killed?
Even after becoming a witch, she possesses the goodness of her self-satisfaction, which some would laugh at as weak.
And.
Because it is the intent to kill that has been resolved through such weakness, it will never change.
“Hey, you hypocrite! A fucking baby! “
Rosie’s appearance, staggering and bluffing, was no different from before her defeat.
If I let her live, I would create another tragedy of hers without the slightest reflection on her, and I would sit astride it and drink her blood and tears.
Siu took out the window and lifted it.
This is because maintaining this window is too much for now.
In return for dealing with excessive power, the magic circuits of the whole body were heating up and giving a burning pain, so it was impossible to further amplify or strengthen the body.
“Hick… !”
Rosie’s complexion changes as soon as she sees the window.
As if realizing the reality too late, Rosie’s screaming stops and instead swallows empty wind.
If Rosie had made up her mind, he would have been able to extend the range of the barrier to the outside of the mansion.
If that were the case, the intruders would have invaded before the battle was over.
The reason why Rosie did not do so was because she simply recognized Siwoo as her prey.
In fact, that awareness continued even the moment he fell to the ground in defeat.
However, even an arrogant witch who tramples on the lives of others and savors despair is bound to shrink before intuitive signs of violence.
Rosie exclaimed urgently.
“Now, wait, let’s talk… !”
-G-G-G-G-G-G-G-G-G-G-G-G-G-G-G
Ignore it and move forward.
The eerie sound of the tip of her spear scraping the ground made Rosie’s complexion even whiter.
Rosie walks backwards and Siwoo approaches her.
“You, do you think you can do this without any problems? Even if you kill me in Hexsenacht?”
The playroom is small.
Rosie was soon blocked by a wall.
Looking left and right for a place to escape to, Rosie threw down the fragile mask.
I read the promise in his eyes, which did not waver even when he suggested various compromises.
“What did I do so wrong! Aren’t apprentice witches and witches to search for anyway?! I didn’t even kill either of them! It was just a little bit of fun!”
An ugly stench emanates from the self-defense he picks up and serves as an excuse.
Siwoo’s reaction to him was one.
– Booung!
Orbit of a window that draws a fan shape.
Although it does not have magical power enhancement, its power far exceeds human limits.
-Bang!
However, the spear aimed at Rosie’s neck was blocked by a translucent curtain.
A barrier created by Rosie who succeeded in contacting the wall and squeezed out the last remaining despair.
Rosie crouched down in the spirit of wielding the spear, and smiled distorted at the sight of the spear stopped right in front of his nose.
Haha!”
That smile soon turns into laughter.
Rosie also has a rough idea of Siwoo’s condition.
A situation where each other was exhausted.
It was because it was confirmed that the spear attack with all its energy had no effect on the shield.
Rosie’s workshop is converting the slowly accumulated, highly concentrated despair into magic even at this moment.
“Asshole, you’re going to go behind.”
The game was lost due to outrageous foul play, but in the end the winner is himself.
Just by holding on like this, he can’t do anything.
“Weren’t you brave when you were filled with a sense of justice that wasn’t the same? We’ll see if you can show the same power in front of our Qliphort. Like a head… Wow!”
-Bang!
Siwoo had no intention of watching the snout move without rest.
With all his strength he lifted his spear over his head and struck the shield like a woodcutter chopping firewood.
Even if it didn’t shock Rosie, the roar echoes throughout the playroom.
“So, is it useless? With your remaining magic power… !”
-Bang!
Once again.
The black spear that he swung with all his might struck the protective shield.
The anti-elasticity that even a spiritual body can’t handle tears Siwoo’s grip.
Even so, there was no sign of his strength in his hand holding the spear firmly.
-Bang!
The sound of hitting an iron plate with a hammer.
Rosie catches her breath in a shuddering roar.
-Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!
The illusion of long spears swinging from top to bottom covered the protective shield.
Rosie was sitting close to the ground, staring at the ghastly scene.
“Huh… !”
The power of the whole body connected as one through breathing.
All the supernatural power emanating from the muscles that were relaxed and then tense was loaded onto the spearhead and struck down with Jin-gak.
– Jump!
A spider web-like incontinence ran over the translucent protective film that had no scratches.
On top of it, drops of blood that flowed along the window sill fall down and hang like dew.
Only then did Rosie realize that Siu had no intention of giving up.
It was an unbelievable sight for Rosie, who lived only in the magical world.
I can’t believe it, but I’m thinking of breaking the protective shield with brute force, and I’m moving to realize it again.
“Now, wait a minute…. Undo what I said. I will cancel everything.”
Rosie, who swallowed a gulp, tried to change his words like flipping his palm.
The spear that was thrown again cuts the horse’s waist.
-Jeojeok, jump… !
The incontinence, which was only a crack, is gradually encroaching on the protective film.
“Ah….”
Rosie looked at the flying window with trembling eyes.
-Bang!
– Damn…
“Hey, stop! It breaks!”
Even in the worst situation, the childish mindset of ‘only oneself is special’ made it possible to maintain unpredictable optimism.
And the ability to turn away from reality stemming from a sense of privilege is broken.
It was only when he was in a position where he could not do anything but pray that the protective shield would not be broken and that he first get exhausted and fall out, that he faced a clear reality.
As Rosie’s mental armament, which she had cared for her self-righteousness and egotism, is shaved off, she finally feels the emotions spreading in her heart like her ink.
Her despair that she loved so much.
She feels the black, soggy despair that she could admire because she was always in the position of consuming from afar.
“Let’s stop now, okay? I will cover everything that happened here.”
-Bang!
“Oh, no. Was Pina the problem? Pina will never lay a hand on her. She will release Mama too. I will hand over Mana and Malisha to you.”
-Bang!
The despair I encountered for the first time was not a beautiful thing.
Grinding through the heart like sandpaper.
The fear of being bound by a heavy anchor and sinking infinitely.
The moment Rosie felt the tongue of death lick her cheek, she started begging desperately.
“I apologize, I apologize! Please forgive! Please please….”
– Damn it!!!!
Finally, the thin shell that protected her Rosie crumbles.
The executioner’s shadow casts over Rosie’s terrified face.
“Hey!”
All this time, following the beat, the timing when that savage attack should have struck.
However, Siwoo is just looking down at Rosie with cold eyes.
“That, yes…. Well thought out! Let’s continue our constructive relationship huh?”
The moment when Rosie felt a glimmer of hope in the midst of despair.
Siwoo’s tightly twisted lips opened.
“I have no right to forgive you.”
A ruthless, ruthless tone that mercilessly cuts off thin hopes.
There is no one in this world who can forgive Rosie.
Losing all hope, Rosie reveals all her broken teeth.
“You fucking bastard! I think you can kill me… !”
– Kwajik!
With a bloody roar, Rosie’s limbs stretched out stiffly toward the sky, as if out of order.
Seeing Roji wriggling on the floor, Siwoo struck the spear pole without the slightest movement.
– Kwajik!
Convulsive limp limbs.
There were no more sounds.
“Whoa….”
Siu caught his breath as he wiped the blood from his face.
First murder.
He has kidnapped Diana and made Jack half-dead, but this is the first time he has killed himself.
But there was no regret or fear.
Only the feeling of slaughtering a mad dog that bites non-humans lingers.
Even if Master was here, he would have made the same choice.
Now is the time to think about the afterlife.
Siwoo, who had scattered the spears of shadow, had no choice but to recreate them right away.
– Mate mate mate
“It was a great fight.”
The crack in the door of the playroom that was open at some point.
The sound of applause resounded in between them because someone entered.
