chapter 153
153 – The Worst Always Comes on Top of Each Other – 4
This is what I thought when I first saw Cyclops.
Since that guy is so big, there must be a lot of places to hit him!
Even though he is S-rank, he was good enough to work with Elder, so this guy is also good.
But that was my mistake. It was an extremely serious misjudgment.
Why did Hyun Soo-jin tell me, ‘He will be different from the ones he fought with himself and Kwak Hyuk?’
I finally understood why people talked about things like humans and monsters.
First of all, the first problem. This crazy monster bastard seems to have no sense.
To be more precise, a sense of perseverance. A sensor that senses pain. I’m sure this thing is broken.
Otherwise, you won’t be able to move even if you cut like crazy with your sword.
Pump!— Pump!—
It definitely feels like the leather is being cut, blood is splattering, and it feels like I’m being cut.
There is a feeling that comes from your hands. Ah, this is in the right place.
But somehow, this damned one-eyed bastard doesn’t move a thing.
Even when I cut off his limbs, he didn’t even flinch and rushed to catch me.
“Hey, Baek Seo-jin! Quit and get rid of it! You’re acting like that…”
I think I was trying to say that it is possible to get kicked.
The reason I’m so sure is because I got kicked by that bastard’s foot right after. Sibulal.
“Keuok!”
For a moment, the sight before my eyes seemed to turn black, but then turned white again.
It feels like my whole body is spinning and then I feel a tingling pain.
Almost instinctively, she rolled her body to avoid the follow-up blow… Damn it.
‘He has one eye and a big body, so does that kind of speed really make sense?’
Second problem. A speed that cannot be explained.
How can someone of that size have that kind of speed? It’s completely scientifically impossible.
This isn’t it. No, common sense tells me if that is really possible.
When I watch movies with giant monsters or robots, everything seems to be very slow. Isn’t that normal?
Just as I was barely able to gather my mind from the pain, I heard a vicious shout coming from above.
“You idiot! I told you! “All the guys who thought they were slow are gone!”
This is a bit unfair. No, I never let down my guard. I never thought I would be slow!
It’s just that it’s faster than I imagined, and I can’t possibly make a movement like that!
In addition, the problem is that my body is exhausted due to the fight with Hyun Soo-jin.
Who wouldn’t be an Elder? It was a global disaster, but it was a truly brutal fight.
As a result, my stamina and magical power were greatly eroded.
In such a situation, fighting against an S-rank monster again is really crossing the line.
Normally, we would have won with our last move, but the situation turned out this way.
Kugugu!—
I once again dodged the pillar-sized shin of the guy flying from the front.
As soon as I throw my body, I go backwards! And the sound of a huge wind is heard.
If I had been kicked properly by that thing, my whole body would have been crushed and I would have died?
“Hey! One-eyed! You have one stupid eye! Here, here!”
Perhaps because he thought his attacks were too focused on me, Hyun Soo-jin drew his attention.
She must have been exhausted in the same situation as me, but Hyun Soo-jin was holding on better than me.
It seems like Cyclops fell for it. I turn my attention to Hyun Soo-jin.
If that guy’s attack had continued, he really wouldn’t have been able to withstand it, so it’s a good thing.
I can’t believe I get to benefit Elder like this. If you keep thinking like this, positive thoughts…
… Oh shit. Cancellation. As expected, that one was crazy too! Holy shit!
Kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwak!―
I gritted my teeth and used all my strength to avoid the shadow falling from the sky.
When I slowly turn my head, I see countless shadows in the spot where I was a moment ago.
Following the mashed potatoes a little while ago, this time it almost turned into a hedgehog.
Damn Elder! You stab me in the back like this! What a positive thought!
You were targeting me, right? Is that damned Elder really crossing the line?!
“Hyun Soo-jin, you—.”
“Sorry! This isn’t real! “I don’t have enough magic attribute to even adjust the range!”
Hyun Soo-jin offers an apple while struggling to avoid Cyclops’ hands.
If you see him do that again in the midst of such an emergency, it doesn’t seem like he’s really trying to stab you in the back.
But why do those words sound like a provocation rather than an apology to my ears?
I almost burst into tears for a moment, but decided to hold back for now.
Anyway, thanks to Hyun Soo-jin, I escaped that guy’s attack.
Because I got some time to catch my breath and calm down my magic.
“… Now! Take it out!”
“Hey! That is! As you please! It works! “You bastard!”
“Oh, I don’t know! Get involved or not!”
It’s unstable, but there’s nothing I can do about it. If you take more time, the path you have drawn will become blurry.
I once again draw the storm that almost became a suicide last time with my sword.
Kugugu- Quaa!-
Cyclops, who was targeting Hyun Soo-jin, also seems to have felt an unusual energy.
He gave up chasing her and started running this way again.
“Where are you going, you bastard!”
Hyun Soo-jin’s shadow comes from all directions like a wave or a tsunami.
Half of them couldn’t even pierce the leather due to lack of magic power, but it didn’t matter.
Anyway, all she had to do was take her time, and that was enough for me.
Cyclops’ speed has decreased significantly. He is visible.
She doesn’t seem to feel much pain, but is it something that can’t be helped?
It was only natural that I swatted away the shadows that flew in with a scream.
“Hmph!”
If you get caught up in it again, you could really die, but even if you can’t stop that guy, you die the same way.
In that case, it would be better to bet on something that has a chance of survival.
With that thought, I let the slightly shaking wind flow towards him.
Quaa!!―
Of course, the wind that blew towards him was definitely not just ‘wind’.
“Ugh! Fuck! I can’t believe I have to get hit by that again!!”
It’s noisy, Elder. There are sins you have committed, so accept them calmly!
“Hey, Baek Seo-jin. “Tell me honestly.”
“I’m so upset, can’t I tell you later?”
“No. “Tell me now.”
Wow. What else are you going to ask?
“The last time you came to see me, it was really hard and painful, but this time it’s not so good?”
“Of course. At that time, my physical condition was better than it is now. My stamina and magic attribute were better.”
“It sounds like it’s because of me.”
If that’s what you heard, you heard it right. He answered and jumped away.
Immediately after, Cyclops’ huge fist came down on the spot where Hyun Soo-jin and I were.
Wow!—
As for the results, ‘Storm’ did indeed hit the mark.
The damage was clearly done, and Cyclops’ body became tattered.
Yes, it was a hit, but the power was lower than before, so it wasn’t a critical hit.
Thanks to this, all it did was arouse Cyclops’ true madness.
“Please check it again first. If I were to do it one more time, I would still peel off all the skin…”
“Stop talking nonsense.”
Hyun Soo-jin cuts me off and starts talking nonsense.
When I asked her what she meant, she glanced at me and continued.
“You’re at the bottom of your magic power right now. “I just managed to squeeze that out a little while ago.”
At those words, I started and trembled for a moment without realizing it.
How did you figure it out? No, how did you figure it out before that?
“It’s obvious. The storm that was going well last time is now causing a storm? If he was that sloppy, neither I nor Kwak Hyuk would have suffered so much. Ah, it seems like teabagging since you keep mentioning a guy who has already fallen. Anyway, let’s change roles. You lure it in, and I catch it.”
Instead of answering the opinion presented, I looked at Hyun Soo-jin.
It’s true that my magical power is low, but you’re asking me if I have enough.
Rather, what are you planning to do when your magic power and stamina are low?
Did you sense that intention? Hyun Soo-jin sighs and smiles.
“Hey. Are you really worried about me? Arthur. I have no right to worry, and I am much more senior than you. Do you think that if you can’t do it, I can’t either? “I think I got the S-rank qualification and the Elder ticket for free.”
Of course, I am not ignoring Hyun Soo-jin. The saying that you are senior than me is true.
Movement and magical power management skills, presence detection and techniques to deceive.
There is ‘Jjambap’ who has already been active as an S grade and as an Elder.
But that is only possible if the circumstances support it.
Hyun Soo-jin’s current situation is bad if it’s worse than mine, it’s not good.
Magic attribute? It has been eaten away almost the same way as me. Body? Look at me. Blood flowing.
Are you going to take charge of the attack in that state? That’s harder. Much better than bait.
There is only one answer if you want to inflict more than just an effective hit on that crazy monster, a fatal wound.
You have to pull out everything that is not there and pour it out with your teeth clenched.
But if Hyun Soo-jin did that, her her body she couldn’t hold on and in the end …
‘… No, what the fuck? ‘Wait a minute.’
Kwaang!—
After avoiding something that tried to snatch us with both palms, like catching a mosquito.
He ran towards Hyun Soo-jin, who was secretly gathering magical power, and grabbed her by the collar.
“Crazy?! What are you doing!”
“It’s noisy. What are you trying to do? “You’re not trying to die, are you?”
No? Sudden sacrifice to a subject obsessed with revenge?
“What. I got caught.”
“… Are you serious?”
“My body was at its limit anyway. I couldn’t make porridge or rice like this, so I just tried to end it by blowing myself up.”
“What about revenge?”
“That’s what characters like you are like. “If you sacrifice for me, will I carry that burden instead?”
I was so dumbfounded for a moment that I almost hit him.
How on earth did you interpret my character?
And I have no intention of taking up the baton and avenging you.
“I’m just kidding, kid. “Can you please stop making that face?”
Hyun Soo-jin clicks her tongue and casts a shadow onto the face of Cyclops, who is pushing forward.
As a result, his movements slowed down for a while and she took a breath.
“I’m not dying. I have no intention of dying. I just came up with a reasonable way to get revenge in the current situation. Anyway, now you can’t deal a critical hit anymore. But I can.”
“There’s no need for that, if you hold on just a little longer, support will come… ” .”
“Are you crazy? Are you telling me to get arrested? And if we wait any longer like this, this underground facility will be destroyed without a trace. Look at this. Besides the fact that we already destroyed it, almost everything was destroyed.”
Certainly, looking at the area, it was the worst situation.
If the battle continues like this, I can assure you that everything that can be presented as evidence will disappear.
“And then.”
Hyun Soo-jin scratches her head reluctantly, wiping away the blood.
“… Oh, fuck! I mean, it’s embarrassing! “Someone who isn’t even S-rank is acting like this.”
“It sounds strange for someone who beat up a person with special abilities and became a villain to say something like that.”
Does this mean that he hasn’t become a total trash like Kwak Hyuk?
“So are you going to change roles or not? If you can finish it, keep doing it.”
Now I don’t know what this woman’s true intentions are.
However, one thing is certain, as Hyun Soo-jin said, it is difficult for me to inflict a critical hit.
In fact, it might be better to ‘block’ that monster.
Anyway, what sustains me now is the characteristics of the gatekeeper.
“How much time can I take?”
After making up her mind, Hyunsu-jin smiles.
“5 minutes.”
5 minutes. 5 minutes. Rotten. I think it will be the longest 5 minutes of my life.
