chapter 21
21-Party(4)
Chaw ah!
Blood spurted from the neatly cut cross section where the hands had just been.
“Yes…?”
Kael looked down at his arm for a moment.
“Quaaagh!”
Then, soon after, he started screaming and swinging his arms.
Every time he swung his arm, a large amount of blood splattered in all directions.
“The arm…My arm…”
It was absurd to see a guy who seemed to have no idea about causing pain to others, to sit down and sob just because his arms were cut off.
“Wake up.”
I grabbed the guy’s head and made him stand up.
It was worth seeing the distorted expression in pain. Despair, pain, regret, etc. Several meanings could be seen at once.
Puck.
Puck.
Puck.
Kael’s face, which was already half crushed, continued to throw her fists. His teeth were blown out, and his blood splattered.
Perhaps thanks to the blessing of the holy sword, he did not fall easily.
Of course, even if he attacked in a row. Each shot was blown with sincerity.
-There is such a thing as multiple hits, but you have to hit them with the intent to kill each shot so that you can suffocate the enemy.
Isn’t there such a saying?
The sword was put into the original. I had no intention of killing this guy easily.
Even if you die, it will make it impossible for you to die.
“Sal, save me…”
As if the initial confidence had all gone, Kael was begging me over and over again without looking into my eyes.
Holding her hair, she glanced at Kael.
Both eyes had already been blown out. The blood leaking from his severed arm stopped at some point.
Usually, I would have tried to get treatment while freaking out.
I don’t know if the problem was that she was too accustomed to this world, or that she couldn’t treat this guy as a person.
I wasn’t very impressed with him dying. Rather, he had a strong feeling that he had to die.
“Please… Please… Save me.”
Kael couldn’t even pronounce her pronunciation properly, probably because her mouth was bleeding.
Still, 5 minutes had passed since I was punching Kael in the face.
Angelica returned with Cecil, Lucia, and Alice.
‘I asked for Cecil, and the saintess came because she was related to a hero. Why did Alice come?’
“Oh, oh my… Master.”
Just that I called, that a certain level of strength was dying right in front of my eyes. Cecil seemed to understand my intentions.
Cecile’s shadow began to run rampant, preparing to devour Kael.
“…Wait a minute.”
Just before the shadow swallowed Kael, Lucia jumped in.
Like an angry bull, Cecil’s shadow, which had been running towards Kael, disappeared in an instant with Lucia’s hand.
It was blocked by Lucia’s barrier.
“What are we going to do?”
“…Stop it.”
Cecil started glaring at Lucia with a displeased voice, and Lucia lifted her wand.
“Get out of the way.”
I don’t know if it’s because of the sense of kinship with being chosen by the same god, but I felt offended by being surrounded by that guy.
“I am the hero chosen by the goddess. No matter how trash you are!”
Lucia put her hands together and asked me to save him.
This stupid saintess wouldn’t know that her corpse was lying in the aisle opposite the one she entered.
“…Then, treat me quickly.”
“Thank you…”
Lucia, the curser who picked up Kael’s severed arms, picked up her arms and started her treatment.
She was cut relatively cleanly, so it didn’t take long to put her severed arm back together.
Although the damaged face could not be completely healed, it seemed that her life was not affected.
Angelica and Alice looked like they wanted to say something to me. But that wasn’t the time.
“You… But thank you. The Holy Kingdom will take appropriate action.”
“I don’t see a need for that.”
“Yeah…? Wow!”
I hugged Lucia who hesitantly approached me. It wasn’t that she was suddenly attracted to him.
If I hadn’t pulled her, the saintess of her who was killed by her hero for the first time would probably have been born.
It was because Kael used Lucia as bait and tried to slash me in her blind spot.
“Die!”
‘Saint’s performance is certain.’
I wonder if our mighty warrior even exchanged greetings with the gatekeepers of the underworld. The guy who had been groaning like he was going to die a while ago, attacked again.
‘Healing is a method of drawing life force and using it. Look at him being resurrected right away as a warrior.’
This time, as if to see the end at once, Kael’s holy sword began to emit light.
The most powerful skill a hero can use. It looked like he was about to use a suicide bomber.
To be precise, it was not the hero’s body, but the technique of breaking the holy sword.
“Hero…?”
There was despair in Lucia’s eyes.
They said that the warrior who was saved was going to die, and that was about to explode the holy sword. Even the saintess could not hide her bewilderment.
Kwaguawang!
An intense explosion sound was heard, and one side of the wall burst open.
But there was no damage to me. The holy sword burst from Kael’s hand, not mine.
‘Asshole.’
Kael’s right arm, which held her sword, had disappeared without leaving ashes.
If at least part of her severed arm had remained, Lucia would have been able to fix it. In that state, it would have been impossible without the magic tower lord Evan’s conversion magic.
“…Why.”
As if in desperation now, Kael sat down in his seat.
The reason his attack failed was simple. The guy wasn’t a warrior. This was the end.
Kael’s father, Michelle, led the corrupt caravan.
He wanted to give his son the honor he didn’t have.
Michelle made a plan and hired people.
There were plenty of alchemists who could make imitations of holy swords, if you gave them money.
The guy who will take the drunken Kael to the temple where the holy sword is is hired a street bully.
Bought the high-ranking priests of the temple and made Kael, who had an artificial holy sword, into a hero.
That’s how the hero, Kael, was born.
‘In the original story…The two got along well and went to the execution table.’
It was the downfall of a giant trading company that held half of the continent’s gold.
“What is it?”
“I heard a sound from here.”
“…A corpse!”
Hearing the sound of an explosion, those staying in the imperial castle began to flock to the party one by one.
“That’s… A hero?”
“Isn’t it the Crown Duke?”
“Did the duke attack the hero?”
People seemed to think that I had beaten Kael one-sidedly.
That’s right.
But there are reasons for everything.
“Hero.”
When the soldiers saw Kael missing his arm, they ran away in contemplation.
Even if you’re an idiot at the opening, you’re probably a hero in a world where the demon king exists.
“Go away!”
Kael snatched the swords from the soldiers who approached to check their condition, then he blew them away.
The soldiers flew away, scattering entrails all over the place.
“Kyaaah!”
“Escape!”
“What?”
Without anyone saying anything first, people started running away. A man was cut in half before his eyes and died. In a way, it was a natural reaction.
Still, a few people took their seats and began to watch, looking interested.
“Damn it, commoner. This is my seat.”
“Since the prince is good at it, wouldn’t it be nice to sit between the two of them?”
I’m sure they wanted to see my skills here. Kael was too weak to draw.
“Lucia.”
“Why?”
“Do you mind if I kill you?”
“…You. I meant to kill you from the start.”
Lucia turned her head away, as if she had given up on Kael.
“That kind of thing is called a hero… Rather a raffle…”
I took a step back and heard Lucia muttering something. Although I couldn’t hear it clearly because I was drowned in Kael’s shouting.
“Kill, kill, kill… Kill!!!!!”
Are you thinking about hiding it now? In the presence of those who did not run away, Kael was shouting that he would kill me.
Chijik.
Chijik.
Lightning began to dwell on the sword.
“Die!”
‘Even if it’s a counterfeit, they’re attacking without the protection of the holy sword.’
It was to the point where I thought it was the fault of those who deceived such a guy as a hero.
Kael, whose protection was gone, was miserable.
The guy who didn’t have a basic base itself used divine protection to increase his basic physical abilities, but even that was lost.
f*ck-.
After passing the knife away from him a couple of times, I stabbed the knife through his heart.
It was a neat stab. It was certain that it passed through flesh and bone, and pierced through the heart all at once.
“Ke…Keek…”
With those words, Kael’s breath stopped.
“Please take away the corpse.”
Lucia tried to put a barrier on Kael’s corpse to prevent her from decaying, but
“Cecil.”
“Yes.”
The shadow extending from Cecil began to absorb Kael’s body. It was like a body sinking to the floor.
“What is this necromancer!”
Meeting Cecil for the first time today, Lucia opened her barrier in embarrassment.
‘Did I unconsciously block it earlier?’
However, Lucia’s barrier could not stop Cecil.
Kael’s corpse completely disappeared, and some time passed.
Chiik-.
With an ominous sound, a knight began crawling out of Cecil’s shadow.
“This is…Something.”
Most of the people at the party couldn’t hide their surprise.
‘What is this?’
I couldn’t help but be surprised.
