Chapter 44 – Awakening (3)
A black haze shimmering over the dead sea draws a human figure, but it is not clear.
It was a chilling sight for a monster’s last struggle.
“Go now!”
“Vice-captain…! Be careful!”
“Jonas, wake up. Get on my back!”
Sirocco kept an eye on his opponent as his men retreated.
‘Did you wait? I didn’t see him as such….’
Tentacles move.
Sirocco opened her eyes.
It was because her tentacles, which had been slow enough to make her yawn a moment ago, had already entered their territory when she came to her senses.
‘Fast!’
Even her target was not herself, but the wounded Jonas.
A meticulous attack that shows the intention to kill those who are difficult to move.
However, Sirocco’s river sword had already split her thick tentacles, staining her surroundings with blood as if she had burst her wine.
“…”
Even in the woods where blood showers pour,
The red-haired female knight’s skin is uncontaminated.
She opened her eyes and muttered quietly.
“Come play with me. You monster.”
Killing a monster once killed is not difficult at all.
The surroundings of Sirocco, who had unleashed her power, were burning with the heat of her skill, and the bodily fluids from her tentacles were evaporating as soon as they entered the area.
Shuuk!!
The kingdom ritual sword method consists of three skills.
〈 Steel Sword 〉, 〈 Sword 〉, 〈 Jinkaku 〉.
It is said that you have to master these three things to be qualified to become a knight of the Kingdom of Rune.
Even among talented knights, this skill evolves to another level when you move on to the vice-captain and leader level who can hear monsters.
Sirocco’s 〈 Retardant Sword 〉 did just that.
The sword pressure that flew away, scattering overwhelming heat, slashed the body of the already torn to pieces, creating a splash of blood.
Then, the black haze shakes as if creating noise.
‘Did it work?’
Clopas and Jonas had time to escape.
All that remains is to kill….
I didn’t have the heart to attack further. It is best to see the condition once from a distance. Sirocco’s intuition told him so.
Soon the guy moved.
The black haze connects the scattered flesh like a skein, as if sewing, and then stabs the forcibly moved tentacles into the ground.
‘What are you doing?’
OK.
The surrounding tentacles reacted in unison.
‘Are you going to push the numbers?’
Sirocco took a stance, but the tentacles didn’t move.
They moved so systematically, but now they don’t do anything, so it’s rather bizarre.
Gloop, Gloop.
The tentacles connected to the floor move awkwardly,
The tentacles began to fall one by one.
‘No way….’
The greater the number of tentacles that fall,
Vitality circulated around the body of the Chokgoe, and the flesh began to boil and proliferate around it.
Sirocco frowned at her.
“Even Orcs and Goblins care about their own children, so are you killing all of them just to save yourself?”
“…”
“Ugly son of a bitch. You really are an ugly monster.”
As if responding to the
The forest vibrated with the screams of the shovel.
‘This guy… It’s not a corps commander level monster, no way.’
I don’t know why it got so tall,
Sirocco thought she was glad she was here.
“Do all you can, monster.”
As if there is a wall that can never be crossed here.
Sirocco’s aura expanded. It is neither shaken nor intimidated by the vibration of the nucleus.
Soon, a black haze simmered and gathered the flesh that had proliferated somewhere like a skein, forming a huge club of flesh.
That time, not even 1 second.
The club that was created was so huge that it could crush the forest itself.
It cast a shadow over Sirocco’s head.
Kwaaang!
A flesh club lands on Sirocco’s head.
She slashed her violent chunks of flesh with her blade and pounced.
Pushwwook!
Scirocco runs across the surging blood and the shower of flesh pouring onto the floor.
Closing her distance in an instant, she swung her sword to sever her body,
The tentacle hit the floor and jumped up.
“!”
Numerous tentacles extend from above.
At the tip of the tentacle, a mass of flesh I had never seen before was wriggling.
As she approached Sirocco, she released countless thorns around her.
“Sup.”
Sirocco was accurately reading the monster’s intentions.
I didn’t know that I could jump and avoid it with that gigantic body.
As she jumped up, of course she expected the next attack to come.
So, she splits once again.
Even in the barrage of tentacles and thorns, where there was only death in all directions, Sirocco’s slash shone.
The heat emanating from it was shaped into flames, and it ran rampant like a violent dragon.
“You can’t. To me.”
In Rune Kingdom, it is said that the strongest skill comes from the power of the dragon.
〈 Conqueror’s Flame 〉 handled by Sirocco is also the power of the Flame Dragon.
Like the white flower, it is not simply the power to control fire.
The other knights see Sirocco fighting and say.
It’s like being in love with fire.
The true value of the loser’s flame is usually displayed when receiving a wide range of attacks that there is no way to escape.
This is because it burns away all attacks that come within a certain area.
Rather than dissipating heat.
In a way that ‘gives’ heat to something coming.
The thick tentacles pierced like lightning, but Sirocco saw an opportunity as he slashed them all with his sword.
Her hair had a crimson sheen.
“Haaa!!”
〈 Great Flame Sword 〉
Flames that seemed to burn the entire forest exploded into the air and spread out in a cross shape.
Chokkai hurriedly extended its tentacles to the tree to evade, but it was unavoidable to scorch itself.
“Do monsters hide their strength these days?
Sweat runs down Sirocco’s body.
However, she looked very happy.
After a refreshing workout after a long time, her body feels light as if she is excited.
〈 Daeyeom Sword 〉 Repeater.
Fierce flames emanating from the sword he swung once more covered half of the forest.
The concept of forest protection was no longer in her head.
Although she did think that a survivor who hadn’t managed to escape might be swept away.
As always.
Sirocco thinks simply.
She cared about it before entering the fight, but once the fight for her life began, her only goal was to slaughter the enemy.
Sirocco’s fierce flames burned down the entire forest in front.
“Well!”
Chok-goe fought back without dying, even though her whole body was on fire.
A thorny tentacle extended from under Sirocco’s feet.
It was clear that he intended to kill her by stabbing her from the ground up.
“Hot.”
Sirocco laughed rather.
It is natural for the opponent to come to kill him.
The spirit of enjoying that obvious fact as if dancing on top of it.
Knowing that the flames of the loser burn the tentacles that touch the body, Black Haze chose a high-speed battle method that hits the opponent before the heat is applied.
‘It means he thinks on his own.’
If stung, the leg is immediately disabled, and death occurs.
No matter how good a skill you have, if you don’t have the skills to deal with it, it’s like rotting a treasure.
Of course.
In that regard, Sirocco was a lethally shrewd knight.
Even with a chest that is several times heavier than others, it moves effortlessly and evades attacks.
Whiik!!
Tentacles wrapped in flame flew to the side.
‘The tip is split like a whip… !’
Sirocco tried to hit her, but quickly twisted her body to avoid it.
Had he received it, he would have been caught in the vibrating tentacle whip and torn to shreds.
“Ha!”
Sirocco fired the Great Flame Sword once more.
A huge wall of fire that seemed to devour the city swept across the ground like a gust of wind.
There was nothing resembling grass left in the place where the great flame sword had swept away.
Only the choke kept burning and screaming.
‘Now!’
Sirocco lowered her and started running to land her final blow.
Innumerable tentacles sprouting from the ground to intercept Sirocco!
Her red-haired heretic scattered sword strikes, shook them all off, and approached the body of the Chokikai.
‘That’s….’
What appeared in the fire,
She was a flesh human, about 2m tall, holding a flesh club.
She was only in human form, a hideous appearance with tentacles intertwined from her head to her toes.
‘Is that the body?’
Although she wasn’t what I thought it was.
Now is not the time to pursue such things.
Just put the final blow to the heart!
‘A final sum at close range. Make no mistake!’
Poof!
The flesh club is swung at the right timing.
Sirocco admired inwardly. She said that a guy who didn’t even learn swordsmanship is better than our knights!
I avoid the club that comes in precisely for the temple…… Without!
With the two-handed sword in her hand, she struck back as if kicking it up, then went inside and cut her body apart!
Chew!
As Sirocco stepped on her, her monstrous body split open.
Seeing her flesh pulsating in it, Sirocco prepares her sword.
‘It’s here!’
Her tentacles rose again, but Sirocco didn’t mind.
Burn her with 〈 Loser’s Flame 〉 and she’ll be done, stabbing her sword right through the heart.
Then the life of this ugly monster is over.
In a decisive moment, it is not good to make a judgment for a long time.
Simply put an end to this attack for sure.
Sirocco’s judgment was not wrong. Just…….
It was only her actions that surpassed her judgment.
“Eh eh !!”
She raised her head abruptly, and her tentacles let out a hideous scream.
Around Sirocco, all at once!
“Keugh…!!”
Sirocco staggered, unable to stab her sword all the way.
Sonic attack.
This is an unexpected pattern. She should have cut it off before she could get close….
‘No….’
As Sirocco collapsed, her flesh became tangled like clay, and the pseudo-human that was created gradually melted away.
