chapter 31
31 – Red Moon-2
I’ve said it once before.
Different levels of Awakeners mean different ‘personality’.
Unless you are a person who has just awakened, the one with the higher rank is far stronger.
The quantity, quality, and strength of the ability, because it can overwhelm in every way.

No matter how well-trained the guards are, can they beat a D-class Awakener?
I don’t think you’ll ever win.
Unless that guy who looks like a villain woke up yesterday, it’s only a matter of time before he defeats at least two E-class awakeners.
If it’s a villain who can’t do that, then you’re right to think that that man has lived his life wrong up until now.
What about after that? Well? He said he wouldn’t kill, but can you believe that?
And you said that you carve fear without killing, but should I just watch that?
Is that the right thing to do as a person with power?
I just took out my pistol and prepared to go into battle at any time.
do you know Could there be a special way to capture higher-level Awoken?
“Even the Sun Guild, which citizens talk about important every day, only placed two E-class Awakeners in a shelter like this, didn’t it?
It’s not that I abandoned the people here. Since the villains are rampaging all over the city, they must have lacked the ability to protect the shelter as they recruited manpower to stop them. It is an inevitable choice to protect more people than people in shelters.
‘Why are you so angry with every single word?’
Two of the guards were already lying with severe wounds.
It seems that he is a very skilled D-Class Awakener.

No matter how low the rank is, to kill two Awoken in such an instant.
‘No, it’s too much to promote fear.’
I could tell just by looking at it.
It seemed calmly threatening, but breathing was rough and mana was unstable.
‘Then it’s worth doing.’
The hat of the robe he wore to hide his identity in the underworld was pressed down deeply.
Why the hell would you want to go?
I asked myself.
Isn’t it just a matter of quietly receiving the threat from that Awoken? It wouldn’t do much harm anyway, other than killing one or two people for intimidation.
The author was a villain, but he had his own beliefs.
Shouldn’t the Awakened have to keep alive the non-Awakened to rule over the non-Awakened?
I’m not going to die, and many people won’t die, so why am I stepping out?
‘Because I’m just that kind of person.’
A hypocritical figure who tries his best to avoid people who are in danger from far away, but if there is someone nearby who can protect him.
because that’s me
Thanks to Oh Ji-rap, he saved Ha-yeon and Wol-ha, so isn’t it a good personality?
“What are you?”
“Shut up and attack.”
My heart raced at the tension-filled fight I hadn’t experienced in a long time.
Maybe he just came out to fight?
“On the topic of non-awakened people, are you trying to challenge the awakened people? I need to tell you the subject.”
Are you trying to start by killing me first as an example?
I gathered unstable mana and threw magic bullets at me.
`No. To this extent.`
The speed at which the magic bullets flew was too slow. You wouldn’t know if it flew fast, but you could avoid the slow approaching magic bullets even with your eyes closed.
‘But you can’t avoid it.’
How many people are behind my back? Is it about 100 people? Not all magic bullets will die in one hit, but at least one person should take less damage.
He raised his dagger and poured magic bullets.
If it was a normal dagger, it would probably not be able to withstand the power of magic bullets and break, but this dagger is not a normal dagger.
‘It’s a very special dagger.’
I was careful not to break the magic bullet and spilled it onto the floor, leaving a large dent in the wooden floor.
If something like that hit me, I’d probably die instantly.
‘It’s thrilling.’
I approached the guy who was looking at me with a shocked expression.
“What are you doing? Aren’t you going to mess with me?”
“This bastard!”
It jumped at me with mana wrapped around its arms.
It was not an inefficient attack like magic bullets, but a very effective attack.
Since mana is not discharged to the outside, but only wrapped around the body, mana consumption is drastically reduced.
It has the advantage of being weaker than magic bullets, but a body covered with mana is enough to deal with non-awakened opponents anyway.
‘If the opponent wasn’t me.’
Maybe it’s because he’s excited, but he’s overflowing with confidence.
-Kaang!!
Unbelievable that a human arm had collided with metal, a loud noise echoed throughout the shelter.
The pure physical ability was lightly shed after the opponent had moderately met several levels.
‘How long will it take to catch it?’
It took quite a bit of time to catch an E-class or higher Awakener. I had to attack while holding on until there was no mana left to put on my body. It seemed that it would take at least 15 minutes even for an opponent who spent mana in vain.
`15 minutes? Is it too long?`
In the meantime, other villains may join. It’s not that I can’t catch one more D-class, but if one catches my attention and takes the other hostage, I, as a non-awakened person, have no way to deal with it.
Eventually, I pulled out my other weapon, a pistol.
“You’re going to use a gun against the Awoken? Are you stupid? Guns don’t work against the Awoken.”
‘That’s your idea.’
To make sure it fired properly, I aimed at the guy’s stomach and pulled the trigger.
-bang!!
Heavy recoil was transmitted through the left hand.
It’s been a long time since I pulled the trigger, but fortunately it seemed to work well.
-puck!
He took a step back with the sound of a heavy stone hitting, but there were no visible injuries.
It was not a bullet for awakened people, but a bullet for monsters, so it was probably blocked by the mana inside the body.
‘But it’s not useless after all, is it?’
missed one step Can you show that much openness against me?
After confirming that the pistol was working, I ran straight for it.
He also ran toward me with mana wrapped around his arms.
-bang!
A shot aimed at the left arm caused the guy to lose his posture.
I stabbed the knife into the empty man’s stomach.
– Kang!!
‘Your reflexes seem to be quite useful.’
It wasn’t even a long time, but he wrapped his stomach with mana.
You have to be at this level to feel like fighting.
As I swung around, his arm brushed my head.
Perhaps he thought he had gotten too close, his entire body was enveloped in mana.
The body of an awakened person not protected by mana was a good sword that could be cut lightly, but since I couldn’t use mana, there was nothing I could do if I wrapped mana all over my body like that.
Even if you shoot in that state, there is no big damage, so it’s not for nothing that the non-awakened ones can never win against the awakened ones.
Of course, that only applies to those who can’t hold out until the Awakener runs out of mana, and it doesn’t work for me.
After all, you just have to hold out until your mana runs out.
Awoken mana is finite, but my dagger never breaks.
The battle after that was one-sided. He was definitely faster than me and stronger than me. There was even a penalty that if any part other than the dagger touched his body, that part would be shattered.
But he couldn’t even successfully attack me once.
“You crazy bastard, what are you?”
The blue energy flickering around the guy’s body must have run out of mana before he knew it.
“A guy who will die soon knows what to do.”
When I uttered this line, it felt like I became a villain.
Surely killing the villain won’t put me at a disadvantage? I sacrificed my body to protect the citizens, but I don’t think I will be punished.
‘But just in case.’
Taking advantage of the gap in the mana surrounding him, I pierced the sword into his shoulder.
Even if the body is not protected by mana, even if a normal sword cannot enter, the body of a normal Awakener can be easily pierced as if it were a normal human body.
“Quaaa!!!”
“Please pass out for a moment.”
As if the villain had no tolerance for pain, he fainted right away.
Well, if he was tolerant of pain, he would have had at least one or two wounds.
I raised my head to look around to see if there was a rope to tie him up, but I could feel the citizens with stiff faces.
‘Because they must have seen this kind of fight for the first time.’
Even though it’s a bit bitter, I can’t help it. Ordinary people are not accustomed to such slaughter and violence.
Still, I couldn’t hide my regret, but I realized that people’s eyes weren’t subtly focused on me.
It wasn’t me that people’s eyes were on, nor was it the villain I just fought.
The entrance to the shelter, which must be behind my back, slowly looked back and there was a woman standing there who gave off an atmosphere that said, “I’m the villain.”
“found.”
