Chapter 164
My Villains Episode 164
41. Blood Knight (1)
It was my first time.
Going to a bar alone, drinking soju alone, drinking four bottles of soju.
I messed around and organized my photo album. In the spinning world, pairs of eyes swirled around.
I dug up all the sympathy, the pathetic, and the ridiculing.
The noisy pub became quiet.
five or six? By the time I opened the second bottle of soju, someone sat across from me.
“brother.”
There are few people in the world who call me that. Among them, there is only one who is this pretty.
“Hey Soh? Jeong So-ha?”
“yes.”
“Are you here? How did you come?”
“Take a taxi.”
“No no no, not that.”
He wiped his face and blinked his eyes.
“hmm. What did you come here for?”
” ah.”
Soha came up with words that matched his lips.
“…Your brother called.”
“I? to you? Did you call?”
“yes.”
“I? Oh, it can’t be.”
I flipped the phone over and tapped the screen.
“wait for a sec. I looked at the call history…
No matter how many times I tapped, the black screen didn’t light up.
“damn. It looks like a dog, really.”
“Stop doing this and go home. I will take you there.”
“Oh let go. Don’t touch me.”
The upper body staggered, and the world turned again. He begged for a while in Heewon’s arms.
“Don’t get married, fuck you.”
“You just have to wait, you bad bitch.”
“brother.”
“You didn’t even wait for the fucking army.”
“brother. Wake up.”
“and you. Why are you so rude?”
“……Whoa.”
“Is it okay to send a Facebook message? Why did you change your phone number?”
Red lips murmured. I didn’t hear it, but it was a terrible word.
“What?”
I can’t see you. No way.”
“Huh?”
My vision darkened.
It was a very long blackout.
氷 ♦
The world flashed white.
Whoops!
When the thunder struck, those standing on the hill fell on their stomachs in astonishment.
Utequai,
who was covering his eyes with his thick arms, staggered with arrogance. His muscles were contracting and relaxing repeatedly. It was because he was electrocuted by the electric current that spread through the ground.
“Fidhos (fucking)!”
Utequai spat out a curse and shook his head a couple of times. Barely coming to his senses, he quickly checked the situation.
“The bloody swordsman has fallen!”
I quickly turned my head to the shout of a mercenary and saw Phoenix lying on the floor, smoking. It was in a state where there was no movement because it was directly hit by lightning.
Some distance away from there, a group of Amias were rolling on the ground, shaking less and less.
“Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr
.”
They struggled on their limbs, trying to get themselves up. It doesn’t look like it was struck directly by lightning.
Utequai ran straight to Phoenix. It was because a young man in a black cloak was approaching Phoenix with a long sword drawn.
“Aqun (this bastard)-!”
Tobias bit his lower lip at Utequai’s ferocious shout. He did not have the confidence to deal with the savage warriors charging at him like an angry bear. He hurriedly retreated to the rear and shouted at the confused mercenaries.
“We need to straighten out the battle lines! Get ready for battle!”
“Don’t fuck with me, we’re backing out!”
One of the mercenary leaders, Norman, got angry at the bottom of the slope.
“Don’t think about the moon, kid. Dealing with the Fire Witch here is crazy!”
The young bounty hunter quickly glanced over the mercenaries.
There were over 70 mercenaries hiding under the hill. However, the placenta was killed or rendered incapacitated by the barrage of fireballs out of nowhere.
Fortunately, all of the survivors were veterans, so they did not fall into panic. Besides, Norman and March, who were considered next to Randall in the hierarchy, survived,
so it was not out of control.
After finishing his judgment, Tobias raised his voice.
“The bloody swordsman has been neutralized and we have a wizard with lightning! Complete the quest and get your hands on gold and silver!”
“Gold? You son of a bitch, half of my men have turned to charcoal!”
Tobias coldly responded to the shout of the leader, Machi, whose sideburns were burned.
“Then fight even more if you want to save even half of me!”
“what?”
“Do you think you could survive if you retreated now! You will be struck by lightning by our wizard or consumed by the witch’s flames!”
Tobias shouted again at the pale-faced mercenaries.
“You have only one option!”
visor!
His longsword pointed over the hill.
Where the sword pointed, Utequai was pouring potion on Phoenix, and Amias’ gang was staggering and raising their bodies.
“Kill them all! That’s all!”
Right after Phoenix was struck by lightning and collapsed, Ellen lost her temper for a moment.
It was thanks to the two people Phoenix had put up as escorts that she didn’t fly over the bush and cast a spell.
“Look over there, Miss Ellen. Mr. Hatanka is using the potion.”
Archer Cole, who had been tearing Ellen apart with Druid Zanabas, pointed to Phoenix.
“You are still alive. So you have to be calm.”
Eyes emitting blue light followed Cole’s fingers.
“……Whoa.”
With a small sigh, Ellen quickly regained her composure. She tried to figure out the situation while saving the mana extracted from the crystal ball.
‘It was a lightning spell. The palace wizard must be. They must be the ones who came after me.’
As the light in her eyes faded, Ellen cast a spell to summon the ‘spirit of dance’.
‘Is it the Grand Master? No, there’s no way those old people moved. Then, at least she could imitate the lightning spell…
As the wind gathered, she remembered the four of them.
‘Galnar wouldn’t have come in person. Aktufir is not the kind of person to care about these things. My aunt… isn’t it?’ Ellen whispered to the self-confident wind. The spirit of dance obeyed her command and disappeared somewhere.
‘Withal is clear. He was given the title of master by flattering Galnar despite being able to handle only one element.’
It was not an opponent to belittle.
As far as Ellen knows, Widal worked as a wandering mercenary in her youth. It means that he has quite a lot of experience, unlike other mages who only train in palaces.
‘I’ll be good at fighting.’
Ellen was not intimidated.
She has crossed the line countless times since she set foot on the South Harbor pier four months ago, no, since she came into the world seven months ago. The experience accumulated so far was enough to transform the 17-year-old into a fire witch.
“Janabas. Turn into a wolf.”
“…yes?”
“Turn into a wolf. Right Now.”
An expressionless face and a cold voice. Zanavas swallowed dryly at Ellen’s sudden change of mood.
She once threw a frostbite at Ethan and Simos without hesitation. The atmosphere at that time was the same as now.
“Hurry.”
“I see.”
Zanavas immediately transformed into a gray wolf, and Ellen climbed onto it and took a rope from her backpack that had been left on the ground. Then, as if putting a rein on a horse, he put a rope around the wolf’s mouth and turned to Cole.
“You go and help your friends.”
“But my role is to serve Ellen-sama.”
“Go.”
Leaving only those words behind, she drove the wolf and disappeared somewhere.
“O……”
.
Cole, who was staring at the back, quickly ran out of the bush.
“Mmm.”
In the small space in the middle of the cliff, I was looking down at the hill with my bigger eyebrows narrowed as much as possible.
I don’t know what Tobias roasted or boiled, but the surviving mercenaries were slowly approaching the top of the hill, ready for battle.
“Leave the dog-!”
At the harsh shout of a man, the fighting dogs that had been holding their breath among the mercenaries jumped forward all at once.
There were only a dozen or so fighting dogs, but they were quite menacing. Even if they were wolves, there was no way they wouldn’t be menacing, as they were big enough to believe and ferocious and ran as if they were folding the ground.
kong kong!
As the one with the scars on his face took the lead and barked furiously, the rest of them growled and sped up.
On top of the hill, eight people were camped out in a small camp around the fallen Phoenix.
rumble.
In the meantime, two large stone statues over two meters in height stood up. They were the golems summoned by Siren, the mage of the Lao family.
The barbarian warrior who confirmed the appearance suddenly jumped forward and brandished a huge sledgehammer.
“Uwoah-!”
Utequai’s screams reverberated all the way to the cliffs. Along with him, the bloody dogs soared into the sky.
However, a well-trained fighting dog would not curl its tail to such an extent.
Under the leadership of the leader, they passed Ute Kwai and attacked Bangjin.
growl!
The fighting dogs aimed at the ankles or thighs with their postures low. Then, when it seemed to be counterattacked, it quickly twisted its neck and clung to its weapon or shield.
“Damn it-” Steedman’s
ax swung furiously, and the brown war dog tore apart in one fell swoop. Then, the long-nosed fighting dogs that followed followed one after another, grabbing their shields and dragging them down.
The attacks of the war dogs were certainly annoying, but not enough to injure the heavily armed warrior.
Knowing this well, Norman and March hurriedly climbed the hill and shouted.
“Now shoot!”
The mercenaries with bows and crossbows immediately showered them with arrows. While the fighting dogs pulled down their shields and bit their ankles, they were aiming for his upper body and neck.
Three or four
dogs fell to the ground after being hit by blind arrows, but the mercenaries didn’t care and rained arrows down on them.
The Amias gang and the siblings of the magic swordsman Shimos Rao family hid themselves as much as possible, using the golems as a barrier. The fighting dogs clung to them tenaciously.
“Kek!”
“Genessa!”
Jenessa, who was swinging a spear at a dog that bit her ankle, was shot in the chest by an arrow and fell down.
“Huuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu”
She twisted her body making a sound of air escaping as if the arrowhead had pierced her lungs. The freckled Mira shouted at Amias, who was startled and tried to look back at Genesa.
“You stupid bastard!”
Mira, who lowered her upper body to block the crossbow, threw a knife to the side. The fighting dog that attacked Amias was hit by the knife and his mouth crackled.
“Look ahead!”
“shit.”
When the savory smell rose right in front of his nose, Amias gritted his teeth and fixed his shield.
“Athar Marta (Mother God)-!”
Ute Quai let out a battle cry at the mercenaries raining down arrows and attacked.
The mercenaries did not shoot arrows at Utequai. He had already done enough research and knew that arrows couldn’t penetrate him because of the strange tattoo on his shoulder.
“wait! Ready ready-”
The mercenaries were definitely veterans.
The proof was that they were not shaken even when a giant with a head about two heads taller than themselves charged at them.
The mercenary leader, Lee Norman, standing bloodshot on his whites, shouted as if screaming.
“Now!”
At his relief, the mercenaries in the lead crouched down and the others covered their eyes with their hands. Then, the mercenary wizard who was preparing the spell held out his staff.
“Skaiel’ lyas (Shine)!”
A flash of light burst from the crystal ball at the tip of the wand.
“Ugh.”
While Utekwai was blinded by the flash, the five mercenaries cast their nets as if they had been waiting.
A skillful movement reminiscent of a fisherman. The nets spread all at once and wrapped the huge body in five layers.
“Okay, got it!”
“Kill him!”
Hearing the growls of the mercenaries, Utequai struggled.
“Uh-uh-!”
Although he exerted great strength, the net did not break easily. Because it was not an ordinary net that caught Utequai.
A net reinforced by attaching iron rings to each joint on a thick rope. It was designed to catch the tails of giants such as hippogriffs, wyverns, and twirls.
“Poke!”
The mercenaries surrounding Utequai shouted spears.
Flash!
“Ugh!”
Norman, who fired the spear for the first time, was terribly thrown backwards. The tattoo on Utequai’s back glowed and pushed it away.
However, the ‘Night Sky Blessing Tattoo’ was immediately silenced as if it had finished its task, and the subsequent attacks began to ooze reddish skin without any resistance.
Fu-wook-
“Keuuu”
As Utequai, whose hamstrings were stabbed by the blades of the spears, groaned and stumbled, the mercenaries gained momentum and swung the blades wildly.
Utequai’s skin was much tougher than that of most beasts, but not enough to deflect the weapons that skilled mercenaries wielded with all their might.
As he collapsed, bleeding all over his body, Norman, who jumped out, drew a sword with a triumphant smile.
“Get out of the way, I’ll finish!”
He stepped over the carpet-like net and approached Utequai. Then he lifted his head, which was stuck on the floor.
“Ha what? A red bear?”
Norman’s left hand was full of long, braided hair and a few strands of rope from the net of a feathered coat that had been damaged. He pounded the bloodied Utequai with the back of his sword.
“You are sick. What a savage bastard,”
Norman giggled and shut his mouth in surprise. Because Utequai’s eyes flashed open and he vomited black glare.
“Oh, X-arm surprise. What is this?”
“Grr.”
“……what?”
“Georeo billion!”
Suddenly the net was pulled.
Courage!
Norman, who fell back violently, instinctively shouted.
“Kill this bastard!”
But before the shouting was over, Utequai stood up. The blood-stained muscles swelled twice as much as before.
“Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu!”
The Great Warrior of the Grassland let out a louder and more ferocious scream than he had heard before.
Over the course of many battles, Utequai has grown closer to his ‘mother’. As if
proving
that, he became a true berserker and tore through five layers of iron nets at once.
“Kill these assholes kuk”
Kkuk.
The berserker jumped at Norman, who was shouting, grabbed his face, and
pukak!
I immediately pulled out my head.
“Yeah.”
Utequai lifted his long ponytail over his head.
Crimson blood poured down his face and shoulders.
“Such a fucking…
With someone’s muttering, the mercenaries’ faces turned white.
