Regressor’s Life After Retirement Chapter 52

< To do >

My original plan was this.

1. Catch the monster snake in the lava lake.

2. Climb up to the volcano and secretly insert the into the sleeping flame giant’s body.

3. Run away quickly before the flame giant wakes up.

4. Wait for to spread like a poison inside the Flame Giant’s body.

5. Hunt the weakened flame giant ‘safely’.

“It was definitely a perfect plan···.”

Almost at the same time that I let out a deep sigh, the monster snake opened its huge maw wide and roared.

Kiyaaaaah!

Perhaps stimulated by the sound, the fire giant that was coming down the volcano also thrust its chest forward and roared.

Growwowowowow-!!

Even though there was still quite a distance, the flame giant’s voice surpassed that of the monster snake. The monster snake glanced in that direction and then turned its attention back to us.

And he swung his huge tail like a whip.

-Kwaaang!

The rock we had just stood on shattered, sending rocks flying everywhere.

But we were safe.

Because the king’s tiger, whose entire body was turned into rock, was blocking the tail of the monster snake.

“now···!”

A short period of time given by Wang Guho.

I rushed at the monster snake with the iron golem.

“Jang Young-shin! You go to the left!”

Then a little boy shouted from behind.

“I am?!”

“You stay there quietly.”

The little one’s flames do not work on higher level fire attribute monsters.

So, staying still was helpful.

“I can do it too···.”

“If it doesn’t work, then it doesn’t work.”

Leaving the drooping brat behind, Jang Yeong-shin and I went around to the left and right of the monster snake and attacked it.

Wheeing!

Ss …

The Iron Golem’s fist transformed into a drill spear and spun around fiercely, and my crescent moon sword began to glow.

But the monster snake’s scales were thick. Our first attack only managed to break half of its scales and cut it.

Moreover, unlike when it was dragged by a fishhook, the monster snake was able to move its body freely.

Kiyaaaaaaa!

Venom sprayed widely from the gaping maw of the monster snake.

I used the Pacheon Shinbo to fly sideways and shouted at Jang Yeong-shin.

“damage!”

Cheeeeek!

The venom melted the rock and created large holes in the ground.

Unfortunately, along with the Iron Golem’s right arm, which I was unable to dodge in time.

Cheeeeeeek···.

Jang Yeong-shin said, looking at the golem’s half-broken right arm.

[···There is a restore function.]

“I know that too.”

The problem is, I don’t think that monster snake will be kind enough to wait for that time.

Kwaaang! Boom! Kwaaang!

Cheeeeek!

A tail that swings repeatedly, venomous attacks, and a huge mouth that looks ready to swallow us at any moment.

For a while we had to frantically dodge the attacks.

Then the support team, which had stepped back and secured a safe distance, sent a radio message.

[Team Leader! Are you okay?]

“Well, not yet···.”

-Kwaaaaang!

The monster snake’s tail brushed past me and pulverized a rock.

“···He’s still alive.”

Cheon Seol-ah said with a sigh.

[We are also watching through the camera right now. But, compared to the snake you are dealing with now···]

Cheon Seol-ah trailed off. Of course, I knew what she was trying to say.

“The guy up there is the bigger problem?”

My gaze turned to the flame giant coming down this way.

Kwah! Kwah! Kwah-kwah!

The flame giant was walking towards us with long strides. It was already getting quite close because its strides were so long.

At first glance, the height to the head alone is approximately 40 meters.

I had only heard about it until now, but when I actually saw it with my own eyes, it was a truly unbelievable size.

I muttered with a hollow laugh.

“You caught that thing without any information before?”

I once again felt that the superhumans known as the ‘First Awakened Ones’ were amazing.

In my last disaster of a life, it was mostly their work that destroyed the core gate.

But now we have to catch that guy.

Kiyaaaaaaa!

···And here comes the monster snake as a bonus.

After taking a moment to collect my thoughts, I gave instructions to my team members.

“Vehicles, please move back further. Wang Gu-ho. Jang Yeong-shin. You guys, bring the kid and join the support team.”

“yes···?”

[······.]

Kwaaaaaaaang!

I continued speaking after dodging the monster snake’s tail attack to the side.

“Don’t you know the saying, ‘When whales fight, the shrimp’s back gets broken?’ If you stay here, you’ll end up like that. So···.”

I pulled up the Pacheon Shinbo with all my might.

It’s annoying, but I guess I have to do this.

“First, we have to make the whales fight each other to the death.”

Whee!

My body, shot like an arrow, stepped on the tail of the monster snake and raced over its body.

Kiyaaaaah!

The monster snake opened its mouth wide and tried to swallow me.

At that moment, I was lifted into the air.

Tadah!

As if it had been waiting, the monster snake raised its head and spit out venom.

A void that can no longer be avoided.

I said, looking at the venom gushing from below.

“shield.”

Cheeeeeeek!

The monster snake’s venom melted the shield and even part of the armor.

But that was all.

Now it’s my turn.

“Hhhhhhhh!”

I swung my sword and plunged downwards using the technique of a thousand-footed sword.

Choaaaaaaah!

With the added force of the downward thrust, it was able to leave a fairly deep wound on the monster snake’s face.

Kiyaaaaaaa!

The monster snake writhe in agony.

After that, I lured the monster snake towards the fire giant.

“Over here, you punk!”

Kiyaaaaah!

A monster snake full of poison was chasing me.

I gave the team another instruction into the ear mic.

“Everyone, do as I say. I’ll start a fight with these guys and then go back.”

[four!]

[All right!]

[···yes.]

Among the voices that were full of military discipline, the voice of a little boy who was making a fuss was heard.

[No! I’m going too!]

I clicked my tongue and muttered.

“Anyway, I told you, you really don’t listen.”

But since Wang Gu-ho and Jang Yeong-sin are here, I’ll try to coax them and take them with me.

Kiyaaaaaaa!

Behind me, a monster snake was following me with a terrifying momentum.

Boom! Kwung! Kwuuu-kwung!

In front of me, a flame giant reminiscent of a huge building was getting closer and closer.

The closer I got to the flame giant, the more I felt an incredible heat.

Even though I was wearing my cold fire-retardant armor, sweat was pouring down my body and it was becoming increasingly difficult to breathe.

“······.”

I used the Pacheon Shingong to surround my body with mana and protect myself. Then I put my hands inside my combat uniform pockets and fiddled with the glass case.

Inside this was the .

A moment later, the fire giant that had discovered me swung its huge fist.

Hoooooow-!

I turned sharply and dodged the punch. The flame giant’s fist continued to strike the monster snake that had been chasing me without stopping.

-Pfft!

A monster snake wriggled violently, but then raised its head and roared.

Kiyaaaaah!

Growwowowow-!!

As the two monsters clashed in earnest, the entire Valley of Flames shook as if it were about to collapse.

Rocks melted, the terrain changed, and monsters fled in all directions.

“Phew···.”

I escaped during that gap and hid to watch the fight between the two monsters.

I was thinking of taking the opportunity to stab the Flame Giant’s body with the Ice Dragon’s fangs and run away.

I muttered as I looked at the flame giant’s chest.

“It has to be close to the heart to be effective···.”

Fortunately, the opportunity came sooner than expected.

Kiyaaaaah!

The monstrous snake that crawled up the flame giant’s body began to wrap itself around its neck and strangle it.

Quaddududuk!

The flame giant flailed around in pain, and eventually its huge body fell backwards.

-Kwaaaaang!

The monster snake was doing more than I expected. I used [Stealth] and flew to the scene.

WHEEK!

The target is the chest of the Flame Giant, which has fallen and is much closer to the ground.

I opened the transparent case and took out .

‘Put it in as deep as you can and then pop it out.’

It was when I held Bingryong’s fang in my gloved hand.

Whoosh whoosh whoosh!

The flames that enveloped the flame giant’s entire body swelled up in an instant, then began to melt the monster snake’s scales.

Cheeeeeeek-!

The monster snake screamed in pain.

Kiyaaaaah!

As Joey’s attack loosened, the flame giant raised his upper body and grabbed the snake’s head with both hands.

And then he started tearing it left and right.

Jeeeeeeek!

Hot blood began to pour down from the sky like rain.

The flame giant roared as he savored the blood of the monster snake.

Growwowowowowow-!!

“crazy···.”

I didn’t stop running even though I was swearing.

Anyway, a gap was created.

There is no better time to surprise your opponent than when he is drunk on victory.

Now the distance is just a stone’s throw away.

I spread out the Pacheon Shinbo with all my might.

Whee!

But the moment the Flame Giant’s gaze turned downwards, I realized that it was I who had been lured by it.

Grrrrr!

The bastard’s mouth was slightly distorted.

It’s probably a joke.

“f*ck···.”

Hooooooooooo!

I looked at the giant palm flying over my head and sighed deeply.

“shield.”

It was too late to avoid it. I braced myself for the coming impact by deploying my shield.

This blow probably won’t kill you, but it would probably hurt quite a bit.

-Kwaaaaang!

A moment later, a huge, palm-shaped hole was dug where I had been.

And I was floating in the air.

“mister!”

The little boy was holding my arm. I opened my eyes wide and asked.

“Why are you here?”

The little boy crossed his arms and spoke with a very cocky expression on his face.

“See? If I hadn’t been here, you would have died! So don’t leave me out from now on!”

“···Okay. Thanks for saving me. But···.”

I turned my head and looked at the flame giant.

“Does that giant guy still look angry?”

Grow up!

The fire giant roared and erupted into flames from all over its body.

As if he wasn’t going to give up, the little boy also created a lot of sparks in the air.

Whoosh whoosh!

“I’ll take care of it!”

“Hey! Don’t do that!”

I quickly tried to stop the kid, but the kid’s flames had already flown towards the flame giant.

At that moment, the fire giant opened its mouth and sucked in the flames.

-Whewwow!

The little boy’s sparks were sucked into the flame giant’s mouth without a single trace.

and,

Oh my god.

The flame giant taunted us with its huge trim.

The little boy who saw that opened his eyes wide as if he couldn’t believe it.

“Can you eat it? Really?”

I said with a sigh.

“That’s why I told you not to do it···.”

Fire giants absorb all types of fire.

Using flame attacks on him was like putting gas in a car.

So I told the kid that there was nothing to do here···.

I said, putting my hand on the little boy’s shoulder.

“Let’s go back first.”

“······.”

The little boy looked at the flame giant with a serious expression without saying a word.

As expected, it seems the shock was severe.

I said, patting the little one on the head.

“It’s okay. You’re still young. When you grow up, you’ll be much better than that guy…”

At that moment the little boy turned to me and said.

“I think I can do it too.”

“Huh? What?”

“You can do it!”

Instead of answering, the little boy pursed his tiny lips and began sucking in air.

Whoooosh-!

At that moment, something unbelievable happened.

Th, th, th!

The fire surrounding the flame giant’s body began to be sucked out towards the little boy.

Whoosh whoosh!

The sucked-out flame became more and more compressed as it approached the kid, and eventually became a thin stream that entered the kid’s mouth.

Hororororok!

The little boy sucked up the flame giant like he was slurping cola through a straw.

The flame giant roared and backed away.

Th, th-th-th! Th-th-th-th!

I thought the guy was scared.

Because for the first time, you will meet an opponent with stronger fire control than you.

And it looks like everything will be taken away.

It was something I never imagined.

If I knew, I wouldn’t have gone through all this trouble.

“Oh my···.”

Horororok!

I looked at the little boy who was sucking up every last bit of the Flame Giant’s fire with a bewildered expression.

“Are you even eating fire now?”

Remember.

The little boy answered with a trim.
