Chapter 576 – Side Story 79) Barbarian Knight (18)
Gaiden 79) Barbarian Night (18)
Piles of earth were held together as if the earth had risen into the sky. And it had the shape of a human face. The face of the pile of dirt was glaring at the death squad at the pioneering base.
Wooooo!
It was [Dust.Chan.Face], The third most powerful large monster among the Four Heavenly Kings.
This guy is made of dirt, sand, and dust, and has a uniquely human-like face. It was a monster with near-immortality survivability as it could fly and move through the sky like yellow dust and even if attacked, it could suck up piles of dirt on the ground and restore them.
It is said that it has viability close to immortality rather than being immortal because there is a core that can be said to be a real body in a pile of dirt.
Destroying this core could kill [Dust.Chan.Face], But it was almost impossible to destroy the core, even as small as a fingernail.
Huh? So how did I subdue this guy?
Ah it’s me
[Dust.Chan.Face], Commonly known as fine dust, which resisted the power of chaos, immediately surrendered as soon as I picked and captured the nucleus.
Of the four kings of monsters, it was the easiest to subdue him.
“Me, how do I deal with that?!”
“Run away! You have to run!”
“Oh God…”
With the appearance of fine dust, the death squad fell into despair. Even the people who were running away stopped running and looked up at the sky in a daze.
And it was the same for Henry, who wore Aegis and became the real best monster hunter. However, if there is something different from other people, Henry did not despair and give up.
“Damn…”
However, this kind of monster was the first time for little Henry, so it seemed that he had no idea how to deal with it.
‘Chuck-chuck-chuck! Don’t worry bro I didn’t send him out just now for no reason.’
By now, it was time to arrive.
Whoo oh oh oh-
And as I expected, the wind began to blow over the pioneering base.
Oh oh oh oh oh oh-!
The wind, comparable to that of a typhoon, caused the fine dust to scatter and clump repeatedly. The guy screamed in frustration as his body kept getting disorganized.
“What is this?”
“There’s no such thing as a mess like this.”
“Everyone, you…!”
People’s eyes widened at the appearance of the two men who appeared miraculously.
“Hey, put me down. I’m shaking and I’m going to vomit.”
“Okay.”
“Huh? No, what the fuck?! Hey, you fucking bastard!”
When the handsome man in the style of a bagel gained superpowers, the man with the stern look with him plummeted.
“Aaaaagh! Hey! Take me! Take me!”
“‘Matt’s out!'”
The man who was falling was frightened and shouted at the heroes below her. It was Henry who responded. The nanoparticles stored in the belt protruded and turned into a large mat that could be used to save lives, and the man fell onto it.
“Huh … I thought it was fucking. Hey, this chew! Let’s see you later! I’ll kill you very much!”
As if mad at Saen-nim for suddenly reaping her psychic powers, her man swears at her wildly toward the sky.
“Joy!”
The man floating in the sky sneered at her at the sight.
How much I was beaten by that bastard because of solidarity responsibility… I still get pissed off when I think about that.
“You are…”
“Huh? Ah, was it you who saved me? Thank you for helping me.”
“Destruction…”
The man had a real name given to him by his parents, but he was more famous by another name than that.
S-class hero Destruction, that was another name for this man with a formidable impression.
If so, it was obvious who was with him.
“Wind Line! Wind Line is back!”
S-class hero wind line.
“We can win! We can win!”
“Windline-sama and Destruction-sama… Yes! It’s possible!”
People who fell into despair at the appearance of the two S-class heroes gained momentum again.
S-class heroes were not simply strong beings.
It was a symbol of strength and a symbol of hope.
“What the hell happened while I was gone…”
Wind Line sighs while looking around the ruined pioneer base.
“Well, I’ll figure that out later… I’ll have to deal with that guy first.”
He flew towards the fine dust. Instinctively, he sensed that the monster was his opponent.
Pop-! Pop-! Pop-!
Guaaaaa-!
Every time Wind Line uses superpowers, Fine Dust’s body explodes. It condensed the wind and flew it like a bomb. The mound of soil that was forming the body of the fine dust fell below.
The enraged fine dust screamed and tried to eat the wind line, but he was no longer there. He could fly freely in the sky like a bird.
Haha!”
While wind lines and fine dust were fighting in the sky, the battle between the death squad and the monster army resumed on the ground.
“Monsters aren’t that great either! Yes, I’ve always been like this! That crazy savage bastard is weird!”
“Is that bastard?”
Seeing Destruction swearing at me as a crazy savage, I made an impression.
“You’re additional education later, fuck.”
It seemed that the character education was still lacking. How dare you call Master, who is like the sky, not just a savage, but a ‘crazy’ savage ‘bastard’!
“…Why do you suddenly get chills down your spine?”
Destruction, which was crushing the monsters, trembled.
*****
Two S-class heroes participated in the battle, but it was impossible to defeat the monster army. It was because they had no fear of death because they were under the control of the Monster Lord.
Eventually, they gave up and retreated. Still, Henry, Windline, and the death squad, including Destruction, risked their lives to fight, so they succeeded in evacuating the people.
The monster lord also stopped pursuing it, perhaps to reorganize the army. Thanks to this, the people who ran away were able to buy time to breathe.
“Thank you, Windline-sama, Destruction-sama. If it weren’t for you two, we would have suffered a lot.”
“No, I just did what I had to do.”
Haha! Of course! If it wasn’t for me, you all would have died on the spot? You can praise me even more! Haha!”
Unlike Windline, who humbly shook his head at Henry’s words, Destruction burst into laughter and condescended. After all, it was impossible to repair the personality in just four days.
Seeing such a destruction, Windline frowned, but he didn’t say anything because there was something more important than that. He asked Henry instead.
“What the hell happened to the Pioneer Base while we were away? Besides, those monsters…”
“That is…”
Henry explained what had happened so far.
“That, it can’t be…!”
“Tsk. Gizman did only giz.”
Wind Line was shocked by the fact that the president of the Gizman Association ran away first when the monster army attacked, and that a monster called the Monster Lord was born because of Gizman’s past. Destruction, on the other hand, nodded, saying it must be so.
But he didn’t look good either.
Putting aside anything else, anyone with that level of grudge against Gizman would not stop pursuing him.
‘What’s so many?’
Destruction’s impression of the surroundings became even more rugged. It was because so many people survived despite countless monsters.
It’s heartless to say, but it was impossible to take all of that many people back to the Dark City. Before long, you will be captured by the monster army.
Objectively, it was better to abandon them and move only those who could move quickly. He was also a human being, so he felt sorry for the people who would be abandoned, but it ended there. He had no intention of dying to protect the people he knew nothing about.
And the fastest way to escape is to go with a wind line that can fly through the sky.
But…
“Windline sir! Please don’t abandon us…”
“Ugh… I want to live… I want to go home…”
“Don’t worry. I will never abandon you. As a hero, I will fulfill my duties and responsibilities.”
“Thank you! Thank you Windline!”
“Tsk.”
‘I knew it would be like that.’
Destruction clicked its tongue at the appearance of Wind Line, surrounded by people and reassuring them. It was obvious that that stupid bastard would protect people even if he fell behind.
‘Then…’
Next, Destruction looked at Henry, the monster hunter. Although he was young, his skill at killing monsters was not normal. If you run away with that guy, you will be able to safely escape to the Dark City.
“Ugh…”
“How is your sister and uncle?”
“I immediately put out the fire, but… Running away…”
Henry’s face darkened as Ice shook his head sadly. At that time, a man who was seriously injured and groaned said to Henry.
“It was fun being together, Henry.”
“Mister?”
“Leave me and go first. You’re not going to die here.”
“What are you talking about! To be clear, I won’t leave you alone. Even if we die, we die together, and even if we live, we live together. I will never leave you.”
“Henry…”
“Stop! Stop talking! No matter what you say, I will never abandon you, so I know that. If you’re thinking of hiding behind me, give up now. Without you, I wouldn’t move a single step here.”
“This kid is really…”
“So if you’re going to save me, never give up. I’ll do whatever it takes to get you back into the arms of her auntie and Hera.”
“Keuheuk… Thank you! Thank you Henry!”
“Mister!”
‘Fuck that shit too.’
Destruction, who saw Henry and the middle-aged monster hunter, was impressed. That bastard, Henry, was just like Windline.
‘Then the other heroes…’
He looked around other heroes, but the situation was the same, and he couldn’t see anyone who seemed to run away with him.
‘No, fuck Gizman, can’t this crazy old man do his job properly?! Why did you bring only heroes with a sense of justice?!’
Given the circumstances, his anger was naturally directed at Gizman. If he had brought along heroes like himself, he would have immediately abandoned people and ran away.
‘There’s nothing you can do about it. I can run away alone…’
“That… Destruction man.”
“Huh? What are you?”
Hearing the childish voice coming from below, he looked down and saw a small child who couldn’t even reach his waist, and was looking up at him with a runny nose.
Adults were not the only workers involved in the pioneering business. Hearing that they could earn a lot of money, even young children participated as workers.
In addition, small children were able to work for less than other laborers, so subcontractors involved many children in this dangerous work to save money.
“That, that’s…”
“What?”
“Thank you for saving me…”
“What? Can I save you? When?”
“Oh, I guess…”
The snoring little boy hesitantly answered. She even burst into tears as if she was afraid of Destruction, who was frowning. But the child did not run away.
“Thanks to you, me and my brother survived. Thank you very much.”
“…”
Bow-
The child bowed and bowed again, and soon the dodo ran to my younger brother.
Destruction, who looked at her silently, smiled and shook her head.
“You thought I wouldn’t go just because you said that? I’ll find my own place to live.”
*****
Next day.
“Search these bastards! Don’t approach me any more!!!!!!”
Destruction did not run away alone.
Just as Arachne, a snobbish S-class hero, changed after seeing Henry, Destruction also changed.
