chapter 108
108 – Deviation (3)
Esha Terna.
I know her. Apparently, she was a colleague of Grimm Darker 1, which I first encountered.
The reason I remember her so clearly is because she was stronger than her then-unfinished work her her her, and even stronger than her her player character her her her.
And she was also a character with a worthy background and story.
Assassin Eshaterna.
She was a being created by the elf community to execute overseas elf criminals.
So to speak, he is the elf’s executioner.
Since the elves are immortal and loved by magic, they had to be quite strong to arrest or execute those who went astray.
Eshaterna was such a being.
The greatest warrior among the elves, excellent assassination ability, and a total of abilities even more deceptive than Melody.
Nevertheless, Eshaterna was not a frequently used companion, and this was none other than her personality.
Esha Terna.
She is a malignant scent.
Even considering its performance her, it has a malicious scent that makes you reluctant to go with it.
Grim Darker 1 is a linear story-based game, so it doesn’t make a mark, but Eshaterna’s notoriety can be seen several times in the game.
It was like that right from the first meeting.
A heinous criminal who shares the same cell as the player, who starts out in prison on several false charges.
A being that follows a player out of curiosity who goes through a door that opens by chance.
Usually, the player would expel her from her party, hand her over to her elves, or kill her when they got the chance.
Even I took her with me about two times.
Once as a male character and once as a female character.
It was then that I realized that Esha Terna was a character that could only have homosexual relationships.
I can still see the straight face he gave me when I flirted with him. However, when she flirted with a female character, he became very attached.
Considering that my strategy for attacking my colleagues was perfect, it made no sense otherwise.
That’s why I was able to remember everything about Esha Terna.
Combat tendencies, commonly used weapons, accessories, and armor.
Even his skills his his and unique skills his
My face hardened when I saw that the leg I had raised was clearly blocked.
Explosive leap and my 24 points of strength, and 22 points of health added to the damage and hit with mourning.
It is an attack that cannot be prevented even in a game, and now that it has become reality, it is something that cannot be prevented.
But it was blocked. That meant only one thing.
Esha Terna’s unique story.
Embodiment of imagery, the tilted house of peace.
The effect is simple. Everyone has the same body as Eshaterna, the owner of the image.
That’s why she becomes invincible.
When I remember that time, scarlet eyes turned towards me with vivid murderous intent.
Come. Goosebumps and chills running down my spine. Let’s tilt our head back quickly.
They rush in with the sound of “P-it!” A ray of light crossing the air.
A dagger pulled out from the sheath on the shoulder like a thunderbolt and thrown away.
The trajectory is barely visible to the eye. Assassins are best at memorized throws. I was able to avoid it thanks to my intuition.
The compatibility is in my favor. A mourner whose surprise attack does not work is clearly an advantageous job for an assassin.
But strangely, there is no sign of victory. I fell backwards and saw Eshaterna immediately following me.
The woman held out the remaining dagger in one hand and clenched her fist. She is a tall woman, slightly taller than her older sister.
She approaches with her alluring expression and raises her fist.
Bang!
A fist that is tightly clenched and struck from top to bottom.
The impact of two consecutive sounds made me twist my posture for a moment, and I quickly crossed my arms when I saw the dagger I was watching accelerate.
“Oh my.”
The chin and dagger are blocked. Blocked. A dagger falls beyond my crossed arms for a moment before I even think about it.
Below, Eshaterna’s other hand was waiting.
It’s late-
Pow, puk, puk, puk!
“Ugh… !”
I thought I had blocked it, but I was guided. A dagger pierced my stomach three times.
Moreover, when I tried to greet my older sister who had accelerated with her power of abnormal transformation, Eshaterna kicked me and pushed me away. An elf who lets out a unique laugh at his older sister who digs in with good timing.
She mixed with her older sister and rolled around on the dark sandy beach.
The tangle and rolling was just a moment. However, by the time I woke up, my sister was bleeding from one of her eyes.
Playback is slow. So do I. Esha Terna nevertheless took her stance without haste.
A martial art of the elves that involves keeping the center of gravity low and keeping the elbows close to the sides. With a wide stance.
Exactly the same posture as my sister. My sister jumped into her stance and swung her legs.
Buuuuuk, my sister’s legs leave a black trace. A quick and powerful blow that would normally be imperceptible. However.
Esha Terna grinned, clapping her hands to block her sister’s kick her and stretching out her legs in her direction her her her her.
Her legs, which are longer than her sister’s, dig into one point. Suddenly, her sister’s chin her her is kicked, and her sister’s body her flies backwards.
[Explosive leap]
It was at that moment that I dug into it. An explosive leap made with gritted teeth.
The slow speed and distance are incomparable to before entering this image. But it is enough to close the distance.
I just gained speed and swung my legs from top to bottom.
Even the monsters that were my mother’s limbs were already cut in half with a single blow.
Eshaterna reacted without even looking at me. Her head was aimed at my kick, and she turned her head slightly to avoid it, and rotated around her shoulder to catch it.
My posture faltered. Even though there was no force, a big gap was created.
And then, as if he was targeting that gap, a kick was extended towards my head.
A push kick that can kill a human in one blow. With the ringing sound, I go out of my mind.
A mind-numbing pain even when the mourner’s debuff is nullified. I gritted my teeth and held on, but it was a mistake.
Eshaterna was already close to me.
Moving forward, she comes into my gap and puts her fist, which was on her side, into my chest.
Boom!
Disgust rises from my mouth. She clenched her teeth and held on, then returned her right arm, which had been pushed behind her, and swung it like a dragon’s claw.
‘Hmm, the Dragon King…’
I was in her her image her her her. Her words reach me through thoughts, not words.
Esha Terna, with her scarlet eyes scanning me, bends her body her and throws out her legs her to avoid her claws her her her her.
‘It’s fun.’
My ribs break and my body falls backwards.
As she stops with her legs on the floor, Esha Terna’s legs are visible.
A kick aimed at my face. This is really dangerous if you don’t stop it.
Sooooo!
The moment you tilt your head and avoid it.
The outstretched leg wraps around my neck. Body is tilted My head goes straight to the ground.
You can’t even put your arm in time to lessen the impact.
Fucked-
Kwahiah ahhhhh!
Wow, blood poured out of her mouth. Clear pain even with debuff immunity. I almost broke my neck.
But I couldn’t be relieved that her neck wasn’t broken.
Before I knew it, I was pinned between my legs her, my forearms that I had stretched out to cushion myself on the floor were broken, and Esha Terna was on top of me, holding her dagger high.
“Seed… !”
As she stretched out her left forearm, daggers fell one after another.
Flesh bounces, bones break, and blood wells up and covers my face.
Beyond that was Eshaterna. The elf killer smiles happily, her face contorted in ecstasy.
“Get out, lose!”
[Explosive leap]
But I’m not just suffering. It’s my nature to give back when I get hit.
I planted my upright leg on the floor and used a leap, and my body bounced like a spring, sending Esha Terna flying.
There was a being flying towards Esha Terna, who was floating in the air like that.
A ringing sound followed, and the older sister attacked Esha Terna, scattering magical energy like flames.
A jumping knee kick that flies up in a straight path.
Normally, it wouldn’t be strange if she died with her back bent, but Esha Terna was different.
She twisted her body in the air and landed safely.
There was no trace of blood in her mouth, and the black leather clothes on her body she were flawless.
She smiled with a clean look.
“It’s fun, Nauri.”
“… “It’s been a while, Esha.”
My sister’s cold voice contrasts with the sticky voice that seems to drip with honey.
Esha thought the voice was strange and she did not make any sudden moves.
It’s true that she was a crazy b*tch, but she was a cool-headed crazy b*tch.
Rather, she said this and was happy.
“Do you still call me Esha? Was it the last time like that?”
She grins and extends her hand. Two daggers spinning in her hands.
She returned her two daggers to their sheaths on her shoulders and tilted her head.
“Be kind.”
Of course, that expression didn’t last long.
“It’s unpleasant to have such an uninvited guest.”
Eshaterna looked at me with a cold expression.
I could feel a clear murderous intent in the eyes of her glaring at me. Even considering that she is presumed to be her mother’s limbs, the killing intent is excessive.
Is it separate from her mother’s will her? I traced the wound while thinking.
Her broken ribs were still not healed, and the stab wounds on her forearm and stomach were still bleeding.
Playback is slow.
My strength also weakened. Previously, it would have been possible to stop the bleeding from the wound using muscle strength.
That doesn’t work.
It was because of the image of Eshaterna, the ’tilted house of peace.’
An image that adjusts the abilities of all beings within the radius to the same level as Eshaterna.
The effect didn’t seem that strong, but it was actually very powerful.
Even if the image, ideal, and source were different, it was the same.
The ideal is aimed at the user’s magical ideals and wishes.
If the source focuses on reproducing the source of power flowing through the soul.
The image is the embodiment of the history, training, and experience accumulated by the warrior.
A reproduction of a landscape in which he believes he will definitely be victorious.
It was an implementation among others.
Implementation, not simply manifestation in the world or change that reverses it.
The art of someone who knows how to both change and manifest. A special move that overlays one’s own image or hope on the world.
For Eshaterna, this space was nothing but a space of victory.
He believed that if all beings had the same abilities as him, there was no way he could be defeated.
That was also true.
Because Esha Terna was the greatest martial arts master in the world.
“Sister.”
“Yes.”
“Get ready.”
Still acting like siblings. Therefore, even words that were not said can be conveyed.
My sister and I both know the weakness of that image. If I am not in this space, this image can be completely erased by my sister’s ideal, the death of the star.
That’s the only way to win.
So I lowered my posture. There are few variables, but as long as you escape…
“I don’t know what you’re planning, but it won’t be of much use. I will get better.”
It was then. Esha Terna took something out of her purse on her back and placed it in her hand.
A mineral colored blue. A familiar mineral that enables metastasis.
As if waiting, blue light flowed from the wounds on my stomach and forearms.
“I really want to talk more, but should we do it later?”
Relax, in a place where there are no intruders.
The moment when Esha Terna’s bloodless lips draw an arc.
Pump!
The blue mineral in her hand
My vision was randomly distorted.
Even though she seems to be falling from above, the same sense of speed dominates her whole body as she rides quickly on the swing.
What I see as my vision slowly returns amidst the rattling sensation.
“… Holy shit.”
A strange place you’ve never seen before.
“You have to be careful what you say, right? Mr. Uninvited Guest.”
And it was Eshaterna who was left alone with me in an unfamiliar place.
“Because you were kidnapped by a crazy b*tch.”
If you go against your will, you can’t use it. I broke into a cold sweat after hearing her words
