00934 A Poisoned Chalice, Two. ————————————————– ———————-=
Around that time.
Erwin, who was in the midst of coordinating the battle situation, hastily turned his eyes to the suddenly felt huge energy.
Kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa!
Flash!
An enormous roar pierced my ears, and a cluster of lights exploded like a supernova explosion, brightening up the entire battlefield.
“!”
Even though I saw it from afar, the aftereffects of the impact spread on the wind and reached Erwin. With his hair fluttering in the hot wind, Erwin stared into the distant light with slightly squinted eyes. And he let out a small exclamation.
“Hoo.”
In the direction of the gaze, Kim Soo-hyun, who had just descended from the air, was attacking him, swinging his sword indiscriminately like an angry lion.
“Has it finally come out?”
As the flames bursting from the tip of the sword spread forward, six or seven people were engulfed in flames at once and fell down screaming. However, before it even touches the ground, the pure white sword bursts into dazzling light, and a group of lights in the shape of a sword appears along with a loud iron star and spreads everywhere. Then, the next moment, nine people lose their balance at the same time and blood spurts out.
Erwin, who was staring blankly, opened his lips slightly. He brushed his thin forearm several times with his hand, despite being some distance away.
It’s not just about using a sword. The opponent is using his whole body to surround the enemy, such as hitting him hard with his elbow or kicking him with his foot. This is what it would be like to see a powerful storm swirling around a small pond.
‘It’s like this… . ‘I understand why three people got hit.’
Is this the first or second time that I have seen Kim Soo-hyun’s power so closely?
In the past, when the arrangement was a bit out of whack, I had no doubts, but seeing it this way, I felt like things were cleared up a little bit. How he conquered the Dragon’s Sleeping Mountains, defeated Kushan Tor, and returned from Gehenna, the ancient demons, and the Astral Plane alive. I felt like I knew now.
“Heh~. “You seem really angry.”
At that time, Thanatos smiled brightly, let out an exclamation, and flopped down on the seat next to me. During the first raid, they were at the forefront and had fun, but now they seem to have grown tired of it.
If it were just entertainment, would Thanatos, who was once revered as the god of death, be so attracted to the battlefield? The only thing that interests me is the man running wild in the distance.
The two looked in the same direction in silence for a while. The mercenary group, who were in danger of breaking apart, skyrocketed in spirit as soon as they learned that Kim Soo-hyun had arrived.
Thanatos, who had been watching quietly, tilted his head.
“Uhm. “Does it seem like I’m overdoing it a bit?”
“Rather than being overwhelmed, we are fighting with all our might from the beginning. Well, that’s what it is.”
Thanatos then nodded in agreement, and his eyes suddenly sparkled.
“I don’t think that situation will last forever… . how is it? “What are you hitting on now?”
What Thanatos said is correct in every detail. If the other side has shown its best power, it would be right for this side to respond with its best power as well. If left alone, the damage will continue to increase.
“no.”
But unexpectedly, Erwin shook his head.
“The war has already been won.”
It’s not wrong. The battlefield was slowly approaching its end, and no matter how strong an individual was, there was a limit.
It’s just that, to Erwin, winning or losing the war means nothing.
Because there was only one thing that mattered.
“The jurisdiction has been lifted, and the king has returned… .”
“Oh, it’s annoying. “Don’t say anything out of the blue, let’s just sit back and watch like this?”
“You have to wait a little longer. There are times when you feel weak, but you have to rescue and rescue more until you feel like you are enough… .”
“Satan!”
It was then. Erwin frowned as he saw Melinus running towards him with his white beard fluttering. It wasn’t because he stopped speaking twice in a row, but because the problem of nicknames, which he had been paying attention to over and over again, showed no signs of improving. Because it was a noisy battlefield, his voice was muffled, and if Eldora had been next to him, he would have looked suspiciously at her.
however.
“It’s urgent!”
As Melinus hurriedly rushed over and whispered softly into his ear, Erwin’s expression slowly began to change. The squinted eyes widened as if in surprise, but then drew a strange arc.
“To the north, a group of two hundred people? Including the Brain Emperor?”
The news was so unexpected that I returned to my normal tone without realizing it.
“And Kim Soo-hyun appeared there first? “Is it accurate?”
“That’s right. “It wasn’t just one or two people who saw it.”
“like. So, you mean it came out earlier, not now…? .”
“What can I do?”
Erwin looked into the distance again with a strange expression on his face. The siege had already been shattered, as most of his demons were dying or turning their backs because they could not endure it.
Erwin opened his mouth.
“You’re lucky. I ordered it to be tracked just in case, but I had no idea it would end up like this. Melinus! Where is Savnak now?”
“that is… . She said she searched everywhere, but could find no trace of the priestess. So she’s coming back quickly… .”
“good. Good. Tell Savnak right away. Move quickly in the direction the group fled, then quickly activate the warp gate. And you take responsibility and have all the continental troops go over there. hurry!”
“It’s not difficult, but… . Would this be possible with just the Western Continent?”
Melinus spoke in a somewhat worried tone, but Erwin smiled blandly.
“The battlefield is already tilted, and there are only two hundred people anyway. In contrast, the number on the Western Continent is well over 45,000. “That’s enough.”
“… All right.”
Melinus, with his head down, immediately began to run quickly somewhere. Then Thanatos, who had been quietly eavesdropping on her, stood up from her seat with a slightly flushed face. Did he have a intuition that something interesting would happen?
“What? “I really like it!”
When I stamped my feet as if to tell him to speak quickly, Erwin opened his mouth as if to live up to my expectations.
“Change of plans. “I will approach Kim Soo-hyun right now.”
“Ohh. then… !”
“Of course, we don’t know yet. … “It’s half and half.”
“huh? Half and half?”
When Thanatos questions back, Erwin smiles ambiguously.
“yes. Half and half… .”
Soon, eyes with an implicit red glow focus on where Kim Soo-hyun is. And Erwin muttered softly as if he was talking to himself.
“Which one will be the butterfly caught in the spider’s web… .”

Meanwhile, at the same time.
“It’s still common for people to break into the middle of a festival by themselves. “I lost my excitement.”
After the siege was broken and there was some time to spare, Heo Jun-young grinned as he struck the long sword, dripping with fresh blood, on the ground.
“Aren’t you worried that you might not have received the invitation?”
Kim Soo-hyun, who was shaking off the blood by twirling the knife, also responded eloquently.
“brother… ! brother… !”
And Ahn Hyeon had been calling out the same words like a parrot from before. Her face was smiling brightly, but she had a strange expression on her face, like she was shedding tears.
At that time, Lee Chae caught the eye of Kim Soo-hyun, who was smiling awkwardly. This is because he found a giant breathing a little away with his back turned.
“what. “Were you there too?”
Then Geohan, or rather Gong Chan-ho, glanced away as if he had just discovered something. He stared at Kim Soo-hyun for a moment and then,
“what.”
He said one word in an indifferent voice.
“We really fought together?”
“… joy. I’ll tell you in advance, but don’t be mistaken. “I wasn’t here for you, but because these guys were the only ones I could fight with.”
When Gong Chan-ho quietly grumbled, Kim Soo-hyun couldn’t hold back and burst into laughter. This is because the sight of him speaking lines he had memorized in advance was quite funny.
Then, the moment Gong Chan-ho, who was furious, blushed and was about to shout, Woo Jung-min hurriedly intervened between the two.
“Story later. Clan Lord. “What are we going to do now?”
At that moment, my son-in-law suddenly became quiet, as if cold water had been poured on him. Everyone knew that we had to overcome this situation as quickly as possible rather than solving the problem.
Kim Soo-hyun looked around and quietly savored his appetite.
“I can’t see how many people there are.”
“Several people were scattered while trying to guard the altar… .”
Jeongmin Woo calmly spoke, then immediately asked.
“We don’t even know where it is. Are you going to rescue me?”
“of course.”
Kim Soo-hyun answered without hesitation.
“But for now, I will look for the scattered clan members by myself.”
“what?”
“And you have something to do for me.”
“What is that… ! yes?”
Ahn Hyeon, who was about to shout, stopped talking for a moment when he heard that he had something to do for him. Kim Soo-hyun smiled darkly and pointed north.
“I only heard about the situation. I met Shin Jae-ryong earlier. And Ko Yeon-joo, Nam Da-eun, and Mar. “These four are probably busy securing an escape route.”
“Retreat… . Are you in the process of securing it?”
“okay. It’s not that we don’t have any allies, but we’re so overloaded that we’re in desperate need of every single one of them by now. So, you guys quickly chase after me and help me.”
“B-but… .”
Anhyeon hesitated, looking confused. Because I know how important it is to secure a retreat route from the battlefield.
“still… . Wouldn’t it be better to act together?”
Did you say that women’s instincts are scary? Cha So-rim seemed to sense something strange and suggested cautiously. However, Kim Soo-hyun firmly shook his head.
“In this situation, it is better for me to act alone. Because it has wings. For others, it would be better to help a colleague who may be currently struggling. That is also the way to help me.”
“If it’s a flight, I… .”
“And I have to find my brother too. “I will rescue you and chase after you as soon as I find you, so just follow my advice for now.”
“… … .”
After saying this, Cha So-rim had nothing more to say. If he had said he wanted to stay alone, he would have said no without even thinking about it, but if what Kim Soo-hyun said was true, he was in a hurry too.
… okay. If what Kim Soo-hyun said is true.
“Once we’ve decided, let’s move quickly! “Before the stampede comes again!”
Gong Chan-ho shouted, spinning his Surama Spear like a windmill. Kim Soo-hyun nodded and tried to turn, but then walked towards Gong Chan-ho with a sigh.
“Ah, Gong Chan-ho. Actually, I have a favor to ask of you too.”
“… What?”
Kim Soo-hyun pointed to a window oozing ominous energy.
“Please lend me that.”
“what… . “What are you doing?”
Gong Chan-ho looked up at Surama Chang with a puzzled face at first, but his face soon became distorted. Then, just as he was about to get angry, Kim Soo-hyun approached Gong Chan-ho and whispered something subtly in Gong Chan-ho’s ear.
That moment,
“uh… .”
Gong Chan-ho’s face suddenly became blank as he hesitated.
“ok… ?”
“Then I asked for it. “I will definitely return this to you later.”
Kim Soo-hyun smiled and stretched out his hand, saying loudly that he would return it. Before Gong Chan-ho could even absorb what he had just heard, he felt the Sura magic spear slipping out of his grasp.
Eventually, Kim Soo-hyun turned his back without regret and spread his wings wide and flew up.
After a while.
“Don’t waste it too much. Isn’t the situation the situation? I will definitely come back to return it. ruler.”
Woo Jung-min, who said that, picked up the largest spear among the weapons that had fallen nearby and handed it to him. But Gong Chan-ho didn’t even think about receiving it.
With just a bewildered face,
“… … .”
I just stare helplessly at Kim Soo-hyun, who quickly turns into a dot and disappears.
