Chapter 238 – Eating the Land (11)
“Now, Hanzo, take it too.”
“Thank you, Hoa-ran.”
Maybe it’s because I used up a bit of energy today to get rid of heca, but unlike the food I ate like everyone else for the past few days, it was a medicinal soup with medicinal roots floating around.
I hate using this…
Still, if I don’t eat this now, I will be the one suffering. So, I calmly accepted the special dish Hoa-ran handed me, and Hoa-ran said as he looked at me.
“Hanzo, don’t pay too much attention to what Lilith said earlier. “Lilith goes only so far…”
“I know, you were worried about me.”
“…Is that so?”
No, I have that much sense too…
In the first place, Lilith never said anything to me without any reason.
Anyway, after listening to Lilith, I thought about it too, and honestly, I think there is a tendency to do that these days.
Maybe it’s because I beat the guy who was said to be the best disciple of the Heavenly Demon last time by one-sidedly beating him up, so I must say that I thought I was a bit strong at this level.
There was no crisis for a while, so I almost got a little cocky.
Both then and now, as Lilith said, it happened after I first manifested the gift in advance, but I was so scared that I was a normal person without the gift.
Every time something like this happens, something happens.
Anyway, since all my wives were here this time, I thought it was safe.
To be honest, if you think about it that way, it’s not surprising, but…
I was so unlucky in this regard that if something suddenly happened and I was separated from my wives, there was no guarantee that I wouldn’t be screwed because I would meet a powerful enemy whom I couldn’t do anything about.
“…It’s a law to shorten the time until the gift appears.”
The prerequisite for my gift to manifest was that it was only possible when my dick was still erect.
So, as a result of trying to fulfill that condition, I was able to carry the panties that my wives were wearing that day in my pocket as a talisman, and even without such a talisman, I was able to force my dick to erect, and even if not, I could get an erection for a very short time. You can even use the gift even if you don’t use it.
However, after listening to Lilith’s words, I realized that it was not enough.
Even now, if I summon Hoa or Ammut in advance, I can always buy time to activate the gift…
What if that doesn’t work?
If something really happened that I had to do on my own, the only person I could trust was myself, but it didn’t work out like this.
Even if I had summoned them all the time and kept them by my side in the first place, they were not invincible.
Even though Hoana, who was strengthened by the dragon heart given by Justitia, was defeated, Ammut, who was once a god, was still stronger than me.
Of all the enemies I’ve ever seen, if the enemy was at the level of the white-haired bitch or the pedo skull, it would be difficult to buy even a moment of time with a tiger or an ammut.
In the first place, why is the condition for my gift to appear only when I have an erection?
I thought it was too late to think about it now, but I thought about why my gift only appears under such conditions.
If we could find out why the condition for the Gift to appear is only when an erection is present, we would be able to find a way to manifest the Gift even when it is not erect.
Even if that’s not the case, it’s possible to extend the time you can use the gift without your dick being erect, even if it’s only for a short time…
But when I thought about it, nothing much came to mind.
In fact, if I had thought about it for a moment, I would have remembered it long ago.
Hmm…
As expected, the thinking side did not agree with me.
“Hey, Hoaran. “Can I ask you a favor?”
“Ask…? Oh, no, Hanzo. “Isn’t it time yet…?”
“…No, don’t do that favor.”
To be honest, I was shocked at the moment, but since it was something I would do later anyway, I could put it off for now.
He slurped, swallowed the medicine in one go, emptied it, and said.
“Can you help me with that before I can respond properly?”
Because learning things by using her brain doesn’t suit my temperament.
If that didn’t work, all I had to do was learn by doing.
It’s been like that since long ago.
Because when it comes to learning something, it’s better for me to just keep doing it until I get it, rather than using my brain.
If you don’t know something, just keep memorizing it until your nose bleeds until you understand it. As I got into fights and things like that, I suddenly became good at it.
Anyway, I’m the type of kid who doesn’t listen well to words alone.
Hoa-ran, who was looking at me blankly, soon nodded her head and opened her mouth.
“…Karura, I’m sorry, but can you fill in the main woman’s share of the seat?”
“Don’t worry about this and come back. “Anyway, what’s left is to share with those who come to get more food, so I can do it on my own.”
“Thank you, Karura. Well then, Hanzo. “It’s a little bit difficult here, so let’s move to a new location.”
“This would be good.”
Hoaran stopped a bit far away from where we decided to camp today, turned to me and said.
“Then… Is it okay for the main girl to attack you, just like Lilith before?”
“Neng, please do me a favor.”
“Um… Then, let’s begin.”
As Hoaran said that, I could see his sleeves flapping.
And right after that, I felt the amulet stick to my forehead.
“…Uh.”
“If you had really attacked me just now, Hanzo, you would have died.”
I know.
Unlike in the release, this time, even though Hoaran moved after being announced that it was starting, he could not even react.
Lilith back then wasn’t sincere, and Hoaran isn’t sincere now either.
However, I didn’t even see Lilith or Hoaran move at all. In fact, if Lilith or Hoaran had really attacked me, the result would have already been over.
Anyway, this made it clear.
If an enemy several numbers higher than me surprises me, I will be completely frozen in place.
It’s good if you only get slightly injured, but if you end up with your whole head blown off, like now, I learned once again that due to the werewolf’s regenerative ability, you will die instantly without even needing to sleep.
“…Can I ask you again? And this time, let it hurt a little.”
“…Did you say it hurt?”
“Yes.”
Like now, if it was just a snap and the amulet was attached to the forehead, there was no sense of crisis.
It was clear that if things continued like this, it wouldn’t get any better even after a few days.
Hoa-ran, who was thinking about it, said that because she thought that her body would move first even if it hurt a little, even if it was because she didn’t want to be sick.
“…Then, let’s attack with a little more force this time.”
“Yes, please.”
Immediately after saying that, I saw Hoaran waving his hand and trying to manifest his gift.
Pow!
“Sigh…”
Before that, Hoaran’s amulet was stuck in my solar plexus.
This fucking hurts.
I said it would definitely give me some strength…
This is a little…?
No, it was an attack at a level that would have really hurt me a little if I had manifested the gift at the right time.
The problem was that I couldn’t do that, and it hurt so much that I couldn’t breathe.
“Gwae, are you okay? “Are you Hanzo?”
“Gwae, it’s okay…”
It was as painful as when I was young when the orphanage director kicked me in the stomach and broke two or three ribs, but I was able to endure it.
“It would be better to reduce the force a little more…”
“No, just leave it like this, it’s perfect.”
“But…”
“It’s really okay.”
As much as it hurt so bad, I was motivated to not want to get beaten again, so I liked it the way it was.
Thanks to you, I came to my senses.
“Then… I’ll ask you again, Hoa-ran.”
“…I understand. Then, keep going.”
Seeing Hoaran nodding his head at my words, I concentrated properly this time.
It is impossible to react to the report.
In the first place, there was no way to see how Lilith’s fist or the current Hoaran’s amulet were flying.
Oh, because the moment I did it, I was treated unfairly.
What I needed now was a sense sharp enough to be called a sixth sense, which is one of the werewolf racial abilities that can only be used when the gift is already manifesting.
Even before I knew that the other person was attacking…
The ability to instinctively recognize the crisis itself by catching even the slightest changes, such as vibrations in the air, smells, and other five senses that have become increasingly sensitive.
Not only was there a backlash, an attack rising from beneath the ground, etc., I needed intuition to recognize the threat to my own safety.
Until now, in order to do this, the prerequisite was that the Gift had already been manifested and the five senses had been greatly enhanced by the werewolf’s racial ability.
I decided to do something about it.
I know how it feels.
It’s a feeling I’ve felt countless times already.
It felt like the back of my head was itching.
I don’t know where it comes from, but I’ve experienced many times that I feel like I have to avoid it.
It’s just that I’m less sensitive now than when I felt it.
Even though they did not have the senses of werewolves, which have senses several times more sensitive than those of humans, humans were not completely unable to smell, see, or hear.
It’s just not enough, but it doesn’t mean it’s not there.
Sharper.
By focusing on the five senses that even I, a human, have.
“…Ji…!”
When I felt a stabbing sensation running up my spine, I immediately tried to strengthen my body with the werewolf’s ability as a gift that can be manifested even for a moment and tilt my head back.
Wow!
Before I could even tilt my head back, Hoaran’s amulet struck my forehead again.
Thanks to that, the impact caused me to fall backwards.
“Ha, Hanzo? Are you okay?!”
Hoa-ran was surprised and came running after seeing me fly back several meters.
“…Are you okay.”
Questioning the door, Jill stood up her body, rubbing her forehead, which was probably very red.
Although she wasn’t able to avoid the amulet, she was able to strengthen her body right before Hoaran’s amulet reached her and succeeded in making it less painful.
Since it was clearly correct, it seems that the slightly more powerful standard that Hoa-ran mentioned earlier was correct when I used the gift.
It still hurts because I got hit before the gift fully manifested…
Still, it was half a success.
So, in order not to forget how I felt now, I told Hoaran.
“Roughly speaking, I understand. Let’s continue. “Hoaran.”
