Chapter 60 – Awakening Madness (5)
─Tattatat!
I equipped a double-edged ax and ran like crazy. I dashed hard at the place where the thieves’ feet stopped, and the bastards hit me without a chance to shout.
“Let’s gather in one place——what the fuck, Gehehe!!”
“Dae, what the hell is going on, boogiik!!”
He was killed instantly by smashing his face with the ax face. He hit his stomach with his elbow and landed an uppercut on his stomach with his empty hand. Even with a rough blow, the thieves’ bodies were crushed like rabbits beaten by bears. It’s like hitting a stripe.
─Puck! Clumsy! Perseok!
“Quaaaaa”
“Huh uh uh uh uh!!!”
When they were ambushed while resting comfortably at home, the thieves completely lost control.
I couldn’t see the front, but I kept hearing the sound of something breaking, and my colleagues shut up one by one. In the face of fear, human altruism and friendship are easily ruined.
“Mo, gather!! Come together and fight!!”
“Fuck!!”
One of the leaders shouted so, and several people gathered with their backs to the wall. I sensed it by the movement of my legs and picked up a nearby stone.
After throwing a heavy jjangdol a few times, he threw it with all his might.
The target was the thief’s stomach covered by fog.
– Pleasant!
“Geuk!!”
I heard that the fastballs of major leaguers have murderous power. That’s understandable, as it flies across the baseball field from end to end.
If that’s the case with human power, what about my fastball, which receives double corrections of mana and beast return? One thief was instantly killed by the heavy killing stone that exploded on top of the leather armor.
“Heeheeeee!!”
“What!! What the hell!!”
– Booung! Booung!
One of them, terrified, swung his sword at random.
From their point of view, the sound of cutting the wind was heard, and the colleague next to them collapsed. In the fog so thick that you couldn’t even see your own body, it created a fierce fear.
I picked up another cool stone and followed the rules of horror movies and used vector-voiceing.
“Ukuooooorrrrooooo… !! (Sex…!!)”
“Quaaaaa!!”
My translation ability can use the words of monsters. When I said a word in the language of the trolls, the thieves freaked out.
“IiiiiaaSyAzuDooooo!!! (Everybody ready to dive!!!)”
“Where are you!!! Where are you oh oh!!! Kyaaaaa!!!!
“Aaaaagh!! Jebaaaaal!!!!!!!!!!”
The tone of words of beasts and monsters is important. No matter who hears it, there is a big difference between ‘sounds imitated by humans’ and ‘sounds made by monsters’.
The language of the monsters emitted by the translation ability, of course, becomes the ‘100% perfect monster sound’.
The feeling is a little different because of the structure of human vocal cords, but—— I can hear the sound of a monster in the fog that I cannot see, but can I afford to distinguish it?
“POhhuhH!! NiiiiiaAAnnn!! (Yes!! Captain!!)”
“Bounce out!!! Let’s jump out here!”
“Take your breath!! I have nowhere to hide.
“EffsssU sssssaA!! (I can’t hear you well!!)”
“Hey you bastards!! You guys don’t even have pride!!”
“It’s my pride, it’s a piece of shit, and I can’t go back here!!”
“Uuu Wuuawu!!! (Wow~ Wow!!!)”
─Hodadak!!
Seized with terror, they threw away their weapons and fled. It was a quick escape worthy of the name of a thief, but——.
‘──「Slow」.’
It was slower than my feet, which even received Tyrsi’s magic.
─Tattat!!
I chased after all the fleeing guys and knocked them down. Even those who were out of my sight ran away with footsteps, and I was able to locate almost all of them.
The strengthened five senses were convenient even at this time. If it wasn’t for the wall problem, even if I was covered in fog, I would have been able to see through all the enemy’s location.
─Wheek!
Bang-!!
“Keah uh uh uh… !!”
Even the guy hiding in the corner was beaten to death. The thief looked at me with disbelief eyes. I gave a blessing on the way to the underworld with a kind voice.
“Tthxee, Tthx. (Asshole.)”
“Grrrr. .”
The thief, realizing that the monster in the fog was me, died with a bubble of blood.
─Blow up.
I couldn’t hear a sound of breathing around me. Since the confirmed killing was over, the guys on this side were all killed.
The ax was useless. Anyway, I’m going to come with the guards later, clean up the corpses, and take off all the thieves’ gear and sell them.
“Hehe.”
Take a look at these fucking cuties thieves with their equipment on the subject. Your face looks like a piece of shit, and after you eat it, it’s all money.
Unlike the goblins, these guys had expensive drop items called equipment items and stolen items.
After taking off all of their equipment and selling it, and then receiving the transportation guild’s compensation, they became rich.
It’s bloody money, so I’m going to save the money from selling these bastards’ equipment and go buy francs and a pocket watch with the salary I saved and the transport guild reward.
─Thump thump thump.
My heart was beating wildly with fear and excitement following the first murder. He raised his bloodless hand and made the sign of the cross, but to no avail.
So, imagining Fran’s breasts, I pretended to knead them.
─Food casting.
Her heartbeat returned to normal as she remembered Fran’s soft touch. The effect is damn sure. It is also my answer to do this.
“Lord. Lord, we look upon you as one would a Duke.”
Calming her heart, I recited passages from the Bible as I crossed the river of mist.
As I recited a poem to worship the gods, my heart was filled. The memories of the earth that remained in me protected me from the shock of mental warfare. Because Koreans are a people of dance, song, and sijo.
“A look that borders on anticipation, adoration, and something akin to neverending terror.”
In the cave where the scent of blood wafts, I recalled my own origin.
Not too long ago, returning home was my goal.
So I wanted to avoid murder as much as possible. I didn’t have the confidence to stand up in front of my family with my hands stained with people’s blood.
“The troops advance and blow the trumpets. The ringing in the ears does not stop, like a small star. The soldiers blow their trumpets. Like star shooting by ear. The soldiers stomp their feet, like thunder in the air.”
Could it be that even if I return home, I will not be able to adapt to the peaceful daily life of the earth?
Wouldn’t this goddamn other world become the standard of my life, and after returning to Earth, I would feel it as a different world?
I was afraid I couldn’t stand it.
Until recently.
-Are we not going to let go?
─Nor… I like you…
I already made a family here too.
Francesca. My dear woman
I could no longer imagine her sight of me leaving her for her earth.
This uncivilized, different world had become my new home before I knew it!!
——The German physicist Albert Einstein said.
That nothing can change my world.
I took his word for it.
Because I, Kang Buk-ho, was a Norse, a Norse, a Norse, a Druid, and a deer who would live as the husband of a lovely half-hammer!
“A petal falling, never to bloom again, a petal in flames, full of beauty—”
As if to calm my heightened emotions, I finished reciting.
“──Even without a form, we will never stop walking.”
The first space with a door appeared in this cave. It seemed that they had already reached the end of the cave. Has Tirshi not entered yet? It probably doesn’t matter.
There was a door made with clumsy workmanship in the wooden paneled wall. I slammed my fist on the lock on the door, holding on to the fog.
“Vector – Picking the Lock.”
Quaang!
─Stupid!
The door of the stupid security force was smashed by a vector bear punch. As I kicked the door and went inside, I saw bandits gathered in one place and trembling.
With a gesture, he cleared the fog. It wasn’t unlocked, but it was driven into the wall and wrapped around it as if besieging it. These pups had something to ask.
The room was larger than expected and had several doors. It seemed to have used a large cavity connected to the rest of the room as a room.
“Mo, it’s not a monster!!”
“Person! It’s a person!!”
When I cleared the fog, the thieves knew that the assailant was a human and gave up their courage.
“All, you… ?”
Among the thieves, there was a pretty sharp-looking handsome man. This motherfucker is as good-looking as I am for a thief.
Still, the face is full of greed. It is evidence of murder robbery.
“Uh, why!!”
The handsome man who had been looking at me stupidly shouted loudly.
Even if he shouted, the other guys just quietly noticed. Apparently, that bastard was the leader of the thieves.
“Why did you come to bury us! I can’t even touch the ‘goods’ I was asked for! I was sold by you guys and came all the way from Heysbent!!”
“Product?”
I muttered. After hearing the story, it seems that it was sold to someone and robbed.
‘But why are you asking me for that, bastard?’
Maybe those bastards are mistaking me for an assassin dispatched from some organization or something.
Why? Maybe it’s because Arthur Wayne’s costume is so charismatic. After thinking it through, I decided to fit in with the story.
“… Where are the goods?”
In addition to asking where the goods are, ask where the hostages are. I even cleared the fog for that.
“Hey, not here, but somewhere else!”
At my question, the chief’s face brightened like a Go player who found a way out. When I showed interest in the product, I fell into the illusion that I would be able to buy it.
“Two girls under the age of 10! One boy! That, and even a handicapped man with an amputated arm that he was lucky enough to get! At this rate, your standards must have been met!!”
“… What?”
Not understanding what he was saying, I asked coldly.
No, it wasn’t that I didn’t understand. It was an unimaginably terrible statement, so I didn’t want to understand it.
At the sound of that voice, the leader trembled, threw away his weapon, and fell to his knees.
─Chang-Geurang!
“Sah, you don’t have to pay for the product! Please, save our lives! I beg you like this!!”
It was an unsightly life begging. But I didn’t care if that bastard fell to his knees or if he gained momentum and slammed his head into the ceiling to commit suicide.
‘Two girls under the age of 10. One boy A handicapped man with an amputated arm that I was lucky enough to get.’
I calmly pondered over what he had said.
‘… Did you kidnap an innocent preschooler and a one-armed man?’
Plus, that bastard called them ‘commodities’. A person who is still alive.
‘Are you talking about illegal slaves?’
Slavery is legal in Britannia.
Therefore, slaves are guaranteed to some extent their right to live or human rights according to national law. That is why the poor sometimes sold themselves as serfs.
Illegal slavery was one of the heinous crimes of the underworld in which the law was abducted, trained, and sold to customers who wanted to treat slaves harshly.
In other words, those bastards were involved in such crimes as well as robbery.
‘Murder, robbery, rape, kidnapping and human trafficking?’
I shuddered as I retraced the evil deeds of the thieves.
True trash… !
These pups were truly scumbags with no backs.
Those bastards begged me to save them as if their lives were precious!! My hands trembled at the unimaginable viciousness.
──Let’s kill it.
This is not murder, but good deeds. Great scholars said that people cannot be rewritten. Even if these pups were kept alive, they were garbage that could not survive in any way other than crime.
Awesome…
It was then. Opening the other door, the half-life thief crawled in here.
“Two, boss…”
The cub had frost on half of its body. It’s the first time I’ve ever seen a human body covered with frost, but there’s no way that thief can survive.
Even advanced potions and recovery magic would be meaningless if half of the body died.
“Sah, the merchandise bastards were taken. The wizard… Raid…”
The guy who stammered and spoke was purple even to his lips. He was probably hit by ice magic. It was a fatal wound to the thief who wanted to manago with low life force.
“All of my colleagues… I got… Oops.”
That became the child’s will. Like an asshole, the thief hung his head, unable to properly finish his will.
─Blow up.
It was a miserable end, but nobody cared about his death. Neither do I. I didn’t think these guys had the right to die a peaceful death surrounded by loved ones.
I glanced at the thief who had become frozen meat and said.
“It looks like the goods have been lost.”
What came out of my mouth was a voice like ice that even I couldn’t believe.
“That, that’s——”
The thief leader shuddered.
“All… It’s not all done by your comrades!!”
The thief, who raised his body, gradually turned ferocious and then screamed as if he understood his fate. They realized that I had no intention of saving them.
“I must have thought of this from the beginning!! Make them collect goods! Then kill us to keep our mouths shut!!”
“Well. I don’t know what you mean.”
I threw back my cloak and ignored his objection.
Of course, it was my colleague who saved the kidnapped person.
‘Did Tirsi do a good job?’
Mindful of being threatened with hostages, we split into two groups and shared roles in advance.
I cause a commotion inside with cloud summoning magic, and Tyrsi rescues the hostages using the opportunity.
Everything was according to plan.
