Chapter 65 – Blood Fight
#065.
“Gaon-san, I can see the light over there!”
“Okay. It seems to me that this is the end. Looking at the traces, it doesn’t seem that long. Let us proceed carefully from now on.”
Gaon grasped the past through the traces on the floor, slowed down his running feet, and secretly headed beyond the light.
After about 5 minutes, when they put their wide pupils in front of their eyes, they could see one person’s throat being torn off and lying on the floor.
Three men were already lying dead on the floor. The cold air on the stone floor quickly takes away the body’s warmth.
And at the same time, a voice filled with anger rang out.
“Dogs! You don’t have to do this! I was wrong, so look at Jihee! Jihee did nothing wrong! All you have to do is kill me!”
It was Hayeon. She wiped the tears from her cheeks as she saw her comrades who had become corpses, and cried out in begging.
In response, the red-haired beastman let out a groggy laugh as if he was having fun and pointed to the floor.
“Then get on her knees and hit her head. Please politely apologize.”
“… Then Jihee will be saved, right?”
“Look at your attitude and think about it. So, how long are you going to hold your head up arrogantly?”
“… Keep your promise.”
Ha-yeon twisted her face as if she didn’t even want to bow her head to these guys, but she slowly put her knees on the floor and banged her head on the floor.
A voice trembling with anger, sadness, and earnestness is heard.
“Please. Jihee, please save me.”
“Heh heh heh! It’s a look that suits four years. Hey Musica, you can do as you please with that bitch.”
However, the prisoners did not show any sympathy even for that appearance, but rather smiled sadistically. The leader, the red-haired Su-in, turned her head to the side and looked at the Su-in who bound Yoo Ji-hee, and she said so.
Haha! Prince. Thank you!”
Then, Soo-in smiled at her and grabbed Yoo Ji-hee by the collar.
Aww!
She began to shred and kick.
“Kyaaaaa stop that! Now, I was wrong! So please… !”
“Stay still! Should I apologize if I’m wrong? Apologize with your pussy, bitch!”
At this moment, there were only really beastly people here. Their faces, which were clinging to them with sadism and desire, were nothing but horny bastards.
Ha-yeon repeatedly hit her head on the floor, but when she heard her scream, she raised her head and saw Yoo Ji-hee, who had already become naked, and let out her anger.
“You bastards! Are you a human!? He said he would save me!”
Thinking that they had broken their promise, Ha-yeon spat out words mixed with desperate screams, but they answered smirkingly, as if they had never made such a promise.
Haha! I don’t know what you’re talking about. I didn’t mean to kill. It will be a public toilet instead. Isn’t that enough mercy?”
“This, not even a beast like this… !”
The title was downgraded from a bastard to a level lower than that of a beast. At Ha-yeon’s words, Prince Soo-in blatantly scanned her body and whispered, baring her teeth.
“And I will sell you as a slave. There are quite a few aristocrats who like an angry bitch like you.”
“Keuuugh!”
Hearing that he would not kill her easily and make her suffer all her life, Ha-yeon couldn’t hold back her overflowing tears.
Whether her nails were broken or not, she vigorously scraped the floor, clenched her teeth, and stared blankly at Yoo Ji-hee, who was on the verge of being raped.
And Gaon, who was looking at all of those scenes, asked while facing Chorin, who had been earnestly looking at him from earlier.
“Would you like to save it?”
“Yes? Bar, what did you just say…”
“I asked if you wanted to save them both.”
“That, that… !”
It would be foolish to intervene here. Rather, it is to their advantage that they procrastinate by revealing their dirty desires.
If time delays, the troops gathered due to the signal flare will eventually arrive, and they can easily obtain a knighthood and many other things with the help of discovering the artifact.
Ha-yeon and the others are a bit pitiful, but that is also the karma they inflicted on themselves. Originally, Union was like this, so Gaon, who could not save all life, had to know how to sacrifice a cow for the sake of the generation.
But even so, he was asking for Chorin’s opinion. He can’t turn away from his earnest gaze and brings out her inner thoughts.
Chorin hesitated before opening her mouth.
“I want to save it. But I hate that Gaon is in danger. So just… !”
Just don’t save Whether they die or not, let’s turn away. As he was about to say that, he saw Gaon chewing his lips hard.
“I will save you. Icho-rin says she wants to save her, so she can’t help it.”
“Yes? Ha, but are the beastmen over there too strong?”
In fact, everyone over there had a minimum of 5 stars. Even the leader, Prince Suin, has 6 stars. It is a gap that Gaon, who is barely able to express his aura, cannot catch up with even if he is flying and crawling.
However, unfortunately for them, Gaon is a regressor.
It’s a gap that can’t be caught up even if you fly and crawl, but it’s possible if you wake up from death. He’s died and woke up twice, so he’s got enough of it.
Of course, even so, it is impossible to overcome all these situations alone. So now I need to borrow a little bit of the power of my colleagues.
Gaon turned his head away from Chorin and stared at Yoo Ji-hee, who was about to be raped, Joo Ha-yeon, who was sitting idly in front of Prince Soo-in, and finally, the artifact located in the center a little away from them.
After looking at the place for a while and checking the plan, Gaon made a decision and explained it to Chorin.
Then, she asked anxiously, as if Chorin would barely be that good.
“Can you really do that?”
“Of course.”
Solid answer. Looking at the black eyes that didn’t even shake even the slightest bit, as if not allowing even the slightest doubt, Chorin made up her mind.
“All right. Then I’ll do it. Leave it to me.”
“I believe.”
Gaon watched Chorin mutter her formula while simultaneously bringing one hand to the floor and the other to her magic stone, concentrating mana under her feet.
It’s only one shot, but if you use this technique, you can reach your destination in one go.
Gaon met Chorin’s gaze again, exchanged glances with him, and kicked the ground.
Paaang—!
Poongwolbo.
It means walking ahead of the wind. It is a technique that greatly increases mobility by applying the aura of the wind attribute.
Currently, it is a method of concentrating the aura under the feet and then detonating it, and it was a form that strengthened the leaping power and speed to the limit.
Normally, it is necessary to reach the level of 6 stars, but Gaon was able to use it in a form close to expedient by demonstrating strong willpower trained by repeating regression.
“What!?”
“What is that guy!”
All eyes turned to him with the sound of a burst of air. Seeing them bewildered by the sudden intrusion, Gaon looked down.
He was currently floating about 5 m. This method was chosen because it was impossible to fully demonstrate the effect due to the lack of auras yet.
As long as you can’t fly, floating in the air is a serious risk. As the movement of the body is limited, it was natural that it would be dangerous to be counterattacked at this time.
However, Gaon did not take the risk without thinking. As high as he rose, the eyes of the other beastmen were also directed toward the sky.
So he couldn’t recognize the tree roots that spread out in an instant along the floor. He didn’t notice until a tree root got entangled in his ankle.
“What the fuck is this!”
“Shit! It keeps playing!”
The tree roots, enveloped in green magic, grew in an instant and strangled the bodies of the beastmen. Even if it was cut off by its sharp claws, it quickly grew out of the way and bound the whole body.
Their physical abilities are so excellent that they often break quickly, but their enormous regenerative power exerts a restraining force that cannot be easily escaped.
At that moment, Gaon’s spear pierced the head of the prisoner who was riding on top of Yoo Ji-hee.
Woowook-!
Accelerating force from the Poongwolbo, gravity that caused it to plummet after floating in the air, plus physical abilities that exploded with karma and skills accumulated over decades.
The thrust focused all its power on a single point, gently digging into the skull and destroying the brain.
“Ke-keurreuk!?”
The guy who had been penetrated from the top of his head to his chin creaked his head and let out a groan, but soon fell limp without strength.
Gaon immediately retrieved the spear, immediately grabbed Yoo Ji-hee and winked at Ha-yeon.
At that signal, Ha-yeon’s eyes, which had been staring at Ga-on in a daze, gleamed and immediately spurred the ground and moved in the direction of Cho-rin.
Seeing it, the beastly prince tried to move his arm, but the tree roots that wrapped around him gave off a brilliant green light, and in the blink of an eye covered everything around, forming a huge cocoon.
Of course, he couldn’t hold on for long and was torn apart by his sharp claws, but at that time he had already joined Gaon.
Gaon took off his robe and wrapped it around Yoo Ji-hee.
“Ju Ha-yeon, take Yoo Ji-hee and step back.”
“Thank you for saving me. But alone is impossible. I’ll help!”
Ha-yeon said that she would help her, but she was in a state of bruises. Her bastards didn’t leave her alone.
Wasn’t it because of Ha-yeon that they followed this place and committed slaughter? In line with that, his life was not severely affected, but only the parts that would be in severe pain were selected and beaten.
I stretched out my hand to stop her, leaning on my back as I squinted my eyes and stumbled, as if the pain throughout my body was so great.
“It’s okay. You just have to watch it there.”
Gaon stepped forward as he saw Chorin running from across the aisle to support Hayeon.
In the meantime, the Beast Prince, who had just come out of his cocoon and was glaring at them, gritted his teeth and said to Gaon.
“You guys. That’s the guy I saw then.”
“Okay. I never thought we would meet here.”
At Gaon’s calm remark, he stopped growling as if he had regained his reason before he knew it and made a proposal.
“… If you just hand them over, I’ll let you get out safely.”
“What if you don’t like it?”
“Then you must die.”
The reason why the prince of beasts does not rush at once is because it is difficult to infer the state of Gaon easily.
Outwardly, he is no different from any other farmer, but looking at the Pungwolbo he used just before and killing his subordinate with a single blow, it is clear that he is an outstanding warrior.
He did not want to make the mistake of antagonizing Gaon, who seemed at least the same level as himself.
Of course, that doesn’t mean you can’t just let it go. They had no intention of giving up the artifact. Rather, using this as a stepping stone, he is in a state full of thoughts to unite the beasts of Blood Tail and become its ruler.
To do so, the wanted letter had to be posted as late as possible, but it was obvious that Gaon would tell the Viscount this fact if he let go.
He was caught in a dilemma of neither fighting nor letting go.
And like him, Gaon had no intention of fighting. Even though he thought it couldn’t be done since he had already killed his men, he made a counter proposal.
“If you’re just going to disappear from here, let me go. I set off a flare before entering this place, so the troops will arrive before 10 minutes pass.”
“The military? … Come to think of it, you were with the heir of Kielune at the time.”
“I’m glad you seem to understand the situation now. So what are you going to do? Are you going to just back off?”
After those words, there was silence in the cavity.
The Suin Prince, who didn’t say anything and looked at him quietly, kuk! He let out a laugh, and his eyes glowed bleakly.
“It’s too bad. You must die.”
“I knew it. Then… Come on.”
Negotiations that were not negotiations broke down.
Gaon immediately raised his spear.
Then, when he made a provocation, the beast prince looked around and shouted at the beastmen around him.
“… Go all! Rip that bastard to death!”
As expected, he is using his subordinates as if he is anxious to deal with Gaon. Looking at that, it seems to him that other people are nothing but consumables.
After hesitating for a while, the beastmen rushed at Gaon, howling wildly at the bloody, creepy eyes of the beastman prince.
─Kuuuuu!!
The first thing Gaon bumped into was Suin, who had impressive black skin like a jaguar.
Unlike his confident roar, as if he had no intention of confronting him head-on, he launched a light containment attack.
Caang!
Enveloped in an aura, the claws that radiate sharp anticipation were swung diagonally. Using Ran’s technique, she brushed it outward and spilled it.
And the other three beastmen approaching the gap opened up a wave of attacks. In response, Gaon showed a move that reached the peak of efficiency.
Cut, stab, turn and block.
It’s a simple basic skill, but that’s why it’s a skill that needs to be mastered throughout life. With such tricks, the spear drew the shortest trajectory and blocked the attack without wasting any strength.
Gaon sent a telephony to Chorin while responding to the water that rained down from all sides of him.
-Lee Cho-rin, did you retrieve the artifact?
-Yes! I just got my hands on it!
Using the weight and rotational power of his whole body to knock out one of them, Gaon stepped back and turned his gaze to see the dagger in Chorin’s hand in the short space of time, then rushed at them again.
First and foremost, the task was successfully completed.
All that remains is to deal with these guys.
