Episode 139
Abelson was wandering around the village entrance with Bobo.
Because Choi Hyun-seok was nowhere to be seen even though it was late.
‘Where did you go…’
I clearly promised to return to town before the sun set.
It hasn’t even appeared yet until dusk.
When I think about Choi Hyun-seok, it is something that would never have happened.
‘If you came early because you were hungry, it wouldn’t matter, but you’re late. Something must have come up.’
I feel like I should search the forest right away, but I hesitate.
Where in this vast forest do you think Choi Hyeon-seok could be?
If our paths cross, we might both end up suffering for nothing.
‘Just a little bit… Let’s wait a little bit longer.’
Just then I saw someone coming into the village entrance.
‘They are…’
It was Nicolo and the warriors.
‘Was there a battle?’
Even from a distance, it looked miserable.
It was clear that something was up since there was not a single woman or man in sight.
Abelson quickly approached Niccolò.
“wait a minute.”
Nicolo looked back.
Abelson’s eyes opened slightly wide as he faced that face.
‘The wound is severe.’
The wounds of those who saw it up close were much more serious than expected.
It’s to the point where I feel like I need immediate treatment.
“Are you the warrior who was with Choi Hyun-seok?” “Yes. What happened?” “I met the Demon.”
Abelson’s expression immediately becomes serious.
“I want to hear more.”
Nicolo briefly described his work in the forest.
“… So Ellis and Yakubu died. Only the three of us barely managed to come back alive.” “Mr. Choi Hyun-seok disappeared with that demon?”
“yes.”
Abelson sighed.
What on earth are you doing?
I didn’t even kill the demons.
It’s not like I was hit or anything.
Disappearing with the demons?
‘There must be a reason.’
This isn’t the first or second time that Choi Hyun-seok has acted in an unpredictable manner.
But most actions that seem stupid at first tend to make sense over time.
So there must be some reason this time too.
“Let’s go back to the inn for now. Your wounds seem to be critical, so I’ll treat them for you.” “Oh, do you know how to use healing magic?”
“yes.”
“That’s fortunate.”
Abelson is the best on the continent when it comes to treatment.
I was confident I could cure anyone, as long as they weren’t dead.
Although these three were deeply wounded, I was confident that I could make them feel like they were reborn in just a few hours.
“What is this…?”
For a moment, Abelson’s eyes narrowed.
‘The magic is twisted.’
The magic in the air swirls.
As if being swept away by some great force.
Abelson knows when this phenomenon occurs.
“It’s a magic circle…”
At the same time she muttered.
Woohoo…!
The world began to turn black.

“Hurry up! Let’s go quickly! Hahaha!”
Jalmus frowned at Choi Hyun-seok’s words.
“Stop rushing me. I’m going fast enough.”
He’s running at almost full speed right now, suddenly whining about wanting to see his colleagues.
But I couldn’t help but get annoyed because he kept telling me to hurry up.
Despite such feelings, Choi Hyun-seok felt like he was going crazy.
‘Please go quickly!’
I wanted to grab Zalmus by the collar and threaten him right away, but I couldn’t.
If you feel something strange about the personality of Jalmus, you might even rebel.
In a situation where every second counts, I couldn’t make any hasty promises.
‘Damn it! Why did I think he was alone?’

Why didn’t I think I would have colleagues?
Since Abelson saw only one demon, I naturally assumed that Zalmus would be that demon.
But there was no evidence that there was only one enemy.
‘Please, I can’t be late…!’
Choi Hyun-seok continued to run, praying that he would arrive on time.
“Good. Is it still far?”
“Almost there.”
“Okay, okay. Let’s go quickly!”
In that moment, Choi Hyun-seok’s face hardened.
‘The magic is twisted.’
I felt the magic moving in the air.
As if following a great flow.
It sweeps over us like an irreversible natural phenomenon.
“Oh, I guess the drinking party is about to start.”
“Zalmus said in a calm voice.
Choi Hyun-seok clenched his teeth and desperately tried to appear calm.
“Jalmusu… Not yet?” “Wait. I think it was somewhere around here…”
At that moment, Zalmus opened his eyes wide.
“Ah! There it is! It’s there. Haha!”
That was the end of Zalmus.
Wood crack!
Choi Hyun-seok twisted Jalmus’ neck 180 degrees.
Not only that, he creates a blade from his arm and completely decapitates her.
The Demons have a tenacious life force, so you won’t feel safe unless you do this.
“…”
Zalmus died without even being able to respond to the surprise attack.
The severed head was still smiling, as if it didn’t even realize it was dead.
“Hurry up! Hurry up!”
Choi Hyun-seok activated his magic.
[ Crepitus Mode ]
A variant speculation created with the help of Hemis.
It features rapid movement using explosions using magic.
Woof…!
The back of my calves changed into something that resembled the exhaust pipe of a jet engine.
Both palms also change into similar shapes.
“let’s go!”
Black flames shot out of the exhaust pipe, and Choi Hyun-seok’s new body shot out like light.
Although the control ability is still lacking, it is by far the best in terms of speed.
“Stop!!!”
What you see is a demon wearing a robe turned inside out
two.
I was planning to deal with it right away without giving anyone time to respond.
“What are you!”
Demon tribe
One blocked the way.
Instead of answering, Choi Hyun-seok twisted his body.
Kwaaaa!
The flames on my right leg grow stronger and accelerate.
A speed that is almost 30% faster than the speed that Choi Hyun-seok previously achieved using speculation.
In terms of sheer speed, it was close to a raid run.
Phew!
The bridge passed just barely past the demon’s head.
It was partly because he responded well, but it was largely because Choi Hyun-seok’s attacks were not as precise as he wanted.
‘Damn! I can’t control it very well.’
Transformation using magic is still not a skill that is skilled enough.
Especially since this Crepitus mode was being used for the first time in real combat, it was more difficult to control.
Choi Hyun-seok had no choice but to cancel the speculation.
“What are you!? You don’t seem human.” “You’re a warrior! You punk!”
Choi Hyun-seok, who returned to his original form, activated his magic again.
Raidrun style fighting techniques
Type 1 – First Battle Destruction
I just hit the block without thinking about the consequences.
Choi Hyun-seok, who originally used excessive output, increased the output to a truly dangerous level this time.
The results were impressive.
Kwaaaaaaaah-!
The upper body of the demon blocking the way was blown away.
“Whew! The rest!”
I can already feel my body creaking after using just one speculation.
But, this is not the time to spare yourself.
Choi Hyun-seok looked at the remaining guy.
The bastard kept blowing magic energy while keeping his hands on the ground.
“There! Stop!”
Choi Hyun-seok kicked the ground.
Raidrun style fighting techniques
Type 3 – Charge
Charges forward with black flames.
I was thinking of just taking that bastard down and blowing him away.
‘It flew!?’
The guy got up from his seat and flew into the air.
Choi Hyun-seok barely managed to brush past the bastard’s robe.
Because of that, the robe was taken off, revealing pure white bones.
‘Undead?’
I thought he was a demon because he was wearing a robe, but he was actually an undead.
-You. Are you Choi Hyun-seok?
My body shook at his words.
It seemed like he was using magic to transmit sound.
“How can you not know me, you demon?
“Don’t you have any kids?” – If you came here to stop my drinking, it’s already too late.
“what?”
-It means that the spell has already been activated.
He pointed to the sky.
“Before I knew it…”
Now that I look around, the surroundings have become dark.
It’s not just darkness caused by the sun going down.
The magic was gathering and creating a thick fog.
– Even though it’s not fully activated… I think this is enough.
Due to Choi Hyun-seok’s interference, the magic circle could not be activated 100%.
About 80% of original strength.
Just doing this should be enough to achieve your goal.
-I don’t know how you found out, but that’s too bad. Hehe.
“Just wait. I’ll break your skull right now.” – I thought it was too late. Even if I die, the spell won’t stop. Something like this made with a magic circle is no different from a natural disaster. Even I can’t control it.
As soon as the bastard finished speaking, the ground began to shake.
Crispy! Crispy!
From all sides, pure white hands rose through the dirt.
***
Skeletons made of pure white bones are a representative example of undead.
Those guys were crawling in from all directions.
“Gyaaaaah! It’s a monster!”
“Hey, save me!”
The village became a scene of chaos in an instant.
Screams are heard, and the townspeople flee from the undead.
But, there is nowhere to run.
Because the undead were appearing everywhere you looked.
Dalgrak… Dalgrak…
A never-ending army of undead.
There must have been hundreds of them just near the inn.
At that moment, Bobo, who was in Abelson’s arms, turned into a giant.
“Kwaaaaah!”
The air shook as Bobo, who had grown as large as an elephant, howled.
Phew!
As soon as I swing my front legs, the skeletons are swept away.
However, the empty space was quickly filled by another skeleton.
“What the heck!? What the hell is going on?” “We have to run away first. Let’s get out of here!”
Nicolo and the warriors drew their weapons and opened the way.
Then Sangmin called Abelson.
“What are you doing!? Run away! Quickly!” “You guys go.”
Abelson shook his head.
“I have to stay here.”
There are still people here.
Choi Hyun-seok didn’t come either.
But I couldn’t run away to save myself.
“Now is the time to say something like that…!” “Sangmin! Shut up and come!”
Nicolo roughly grabbed Sangmin’s arm.
Sangmin had no choice but to turn around.
“These guys are endless. How far do they go!?” “Damn it… If only I was still healthy!”
These are the warriors who have been rolling around for three years.
He was injured, but not bad enough to be attacked by a skeleton.
The problem is that there are too many enemies.
They couldn’t continue the battle for long because not everyone was in perfect condition.
“Kkaaaah!”
“No! Irfan!”
“Throw it away! Throw it away! Just look straight ahead and run!”
The warriors begin to fall one by one.
They knew it deep down too.
It’s already wrong to live like this.
But I couldn’t just accept death.
I will go as far as I can.
That’s what they’ve been doing for the past three years.
“Eww!”
Leaving the retreating warriors behind.
Abelson took a deep breath.
‘This is not the time to hide your identity.’
Abelson doesn’t really know any offensive magic.
All she can do now is release an immense amount of divine power.
“Ugh…”
A bright light emanated from Abelson’s body.
My body is trembling because I have pushed my divine power to the limit.
Finally, the moment comes when you can no longer endure it.
She poured all the strength she had gathered forward.
Hwaaaaah-!
A huge wave of divine power swept over.
Of course, there is magic in the air.
All undead that touched the divine power melted away.
“…”
A moment of silence came.
A vast path opened up before her.
But that road didn’t last long.
Woof woof!
Dalgrak! Dalgrak-!
More undead than those who had just disappeared began to swarm in.
Since it wasn’t a proper attack magic, this was the limit.
Just to buy a few seconds.
That’s all Abelson can do.
“Oh, no…”
Despair settled over Abelson’s face.
