Episode 53
Same time.
Raidrun was facing off against Oseld Geffen.
‘I expected it, but… it’s certain.’
Raidrun’s eyes became cold and sank.
‘At least a division commander… If he were a human, he’d be called a hero.’
Raidrun tried to capture as many of the raiders as possible, but it was impossible.
Excluding Oseld, the other three had already chased after Choi Hyun-seok.
‘To be honest, it’s a real burden to just stop that one person.’
Oseld’s power is clearly at the division commander level.
Raidrun’s power is slightly less than that.
But we still have to stop it.
Because he was the only one who could fight him in this black giant.
“A red nightmare… It seems like it’s nothing compared to the rumors?”
Raidrun chuckled at Oseld’s words.
“You seem to have a lot of free time. Shouldn’t you be chasing your subordinates quickly?”
It was said deliberately to provoke Oseld.
We need to make him impatient.
When you get impatient, mistakes happen, and those gaps can determine the outcome.
But for some reason, Oseld was very relaxed.
“Specifically? I think the mission will be successful if we just tie you up here.”
“…”
“Rather, aren’t you the one who has more time on your hands? You should probably go protect the saint quickly.”
Oseld chuckled.
‘Do you already know the situation here…?’
It was clear that Oseld already knew that there was no Hemis on the black giant.
Maybe he even knows the makeup of the soldiers here.
If not, such a relaxed reaction would not have occurred.
‘The information has leaked out.’
I got screwed over.
If so, there is only one solution to the current situation.
The point is to fight that human and win.
“I guess there’s nothing I can do. Let’s get started.” “Is there a rush? Let’s take our time and enjoy it. It’s been a while since we had a proper fight, so I’m really looking forward to it!”
Oseld and Raidrun began to clash.
***
Thanks to Bobo’s hard running, Choi Hyun-seok was able to arrive at his destination, the headquarters building.
“What, what is it!?”
The soldiers guarding the headquarters blocked the way.
The look of bewilderment was evident when he saw the giant demons Bobo and Choi Hyun-seok suddenly appearing.
“Where is the regimental commander?” “The regimental commander is in a meeting!” “He’s inside?”
When Choi Hyeon-seok tried to enter, soldiers blocked his way.
“You can’t go in!”
“Get out of the way, it’s urgent!” “No! If you do that, you’ll be in big trouble!”
Choi Hyun-seok handed over the name tag he had received from the captain of the escort a little while ago.
“See this? Get out of the way.” “What is that? I don’t know. You can’t get out of the way! If you go in, we’ll all die!” “You stupid bastards!”
These guys seemed to not know about nameplates since they were just regular soldiers.
If so, there is only one way.
‘I have no choice. I have to force my way in.’
The moment when Choi Hyun-seok inevitably decided to force his way through.
“What’s the fuss?”
A group of figures walked out from inside the regiment headquarters.
The soldiers who recognized their superior bowed their heads.
“Regimental Commander Royger!”
The regimental commander who appeared had a human-like appearance.
Choi Hyun-seok had already seen him.
‘Doras is a high-ranking demon who appeared during the commander’s battle.’
A high-ranking demon who suddenly appeared and then disappeared.
As expected, he was the regimental commander.
Behind him stood a group of large men, some of whom Choi Hyun-seok recognized.
‘Commanders…!’
They said they were in a meeting, but it seemed like everyone was already gathered there.
“You are the human in charge of the kitchen. And you are Hemis’ pet dog. What brings you here?”
Colonel Royger stepped forward and said.
Choi Hyun-seok quickly explained the situation while holding out his name tag.
“… This is how it happened.”
After hearing the whole story, Regimental Commander Roiger nodded.
He gave an order to one of his soldiers.
“Go and bring me the Liakel regiment and the battalion commanders under him. Tell them to come out immediately if they don’t want to die.”

“yes!”
The soldier who received the order disappeared somewhere.
It seemed likely that he was going to bring back other regimental and battalion commanders.
‘I survived…’
Fortunately, I succeeded in completing the mission that Raidrun had given me.
If all the executives gather like this, no matter how strong they are, they won’t be able to do anything.
At that moment, three figures fell from the sky.
Shushu shuk!
It was the Black Hood Trio that had been persistently pursuing them.
‘It’s too late, kids.’
We’ve already secured one regimental commander and battalion commanders on this side.
In addition, other regimental commanders and battalion commanders will join in a little while.
I don’t know how strong those humans are, but I don’t think they could handle that number.
At that time, Regimental Commander Royger walked forward alone.
‘Are you sure you can do it alone…!?’
Is the regimental commander such a monster that he can defeat those three on his own?
Choi Hyun-seok watched the situation with expectant eyes.
However, things did not go as expected at all.
Shush!
The three men ran past the regiment commander.
It was obvious that the target was Abelson.
“How dare you…!”
Was he angry that he was ignored?
Colonel Royger bursts into flames.
But he could only capture one enemy.
Roger shouted urgently.
“Stop it!”
The battalion commanders joined in.
They blocked with all their might, but eventually missed and blocked one enemy.
A look of confusion appears on Choi Hyun-seok’s face.
‘Uh… what the…?’
The last remaining one approaches in an instant.
There is a murderous look in his eyes.
At that moment, Choi Hyun-seok couldn’t help but notice.
‘These guys… really intend to kill Mr. Abelson!’
As it says in the warrior quest.
Their goal is not to rescue Abelson.
To kill Abelson.
A sharp sword flew in with the potential to pierce through everything.
Choi Hyun-seok pushed Abelson back.
Abelson is blown away helplessly by the surprise attack.
“Whoa!”
Choi Hyun-seok did not look back and instead ran forward.
‘You dare swing your sword when it’s not enough to protect a beautiful woman!?’
For a moment, anger welled up in me.
‘Why on earth are you doing this…?’
It was so unfair and so wronged.
Why are there so many people blocking my way?
Choi Hyun-seok just wanted to enjoy his adventures in another world in peace.
A blond nobleman with a humble attitude
And marry Youngae.
And they have about five rabbit-like children.
All I wanted to do when I got older was see my grandchildren running around in my mansion.
‘That’s not a sin!?’
But this damn other world is impatient because it can’t torment itself.
I guess I have to somehow interfere and see myself despair to feel better.
‘Never let that happen!’
Along with Choi Hyun-seok’s anger, magical energy and magic began to boil from his body.
Swish…!
The enemy who had approached us before we knew it was swinging a sword.
Choi Hyun-seok did not avoid it.
He stretches his legs.
My leg was torn 180 degrees and my right foot was lifted into the sky.
“…!”
The enemy’s pupils dilated slightly in confusion, as if in slow motion.
‘It’s already too late.’
Choi Hyun-seok recited softly.
Raidrun style fighting techniques
Type 2 – Head and leg transplant
Head
The foot to step on
Split Lee (蠫)
Fire-shaped roasting
Choi Hyun-seok’s eyes glowed red, and his right foot slammed down at a terrifying speed.
Feet and sword clash.
Kwaaaaaaaah-!
There was a loud noise and dust spread out in all directions.
***
Colonel Roiger was an elite demon from a famous family.
These days, Royger has been very busy.
It was because of his subordinate, Captain Doras, who died not long ago.
“Get things back to normal while I’m at the regular meeting of the corps commanders.”
This is what Hemis said before leaving.
‘Time is running out.’
Four days out of the given week have already passed.
If things continued like this, it seemed like it would be difficult to meet the deadline.
‘You stupid pig. I knew this would happen someday.’
It’s all Doras’ fault.
Not only did he die miserably at the hands of humans, he also virtually wiped out the entire battalion.
Because of this, the battalion had to be completely reorganized.
Royger had no choice but to hold meetings with his idiotic battalion commanders late into the night every day.
So, during a meeting that lasted until late at night today, an incident occurred.
“Get out of the way, it’s urgent!”
When I heard the commotion, I came out and saw Choi Hyun-seok and Hemis’ pet dog.
After hearing a brief explanation of the situation from Choi Hyun-seok, unidentified attackers appeared just as he had said.
‘I thought I felt a disgusting sexual power. It wasn’t an illusion.’
They are all guys who exude an annoying divine power.
I felt like burning everything with magic, but that was impossible.
‘Where on earth do these guys come from…’
Each human has powers similar to Roiger himself.
There have been three such instances.
Things weren’t going well.
‘I have to buy some time somehow.’
I had called for another regimental commander, Liakel, who was in the Black Giant, so I had to hold out at least until he arrived.
“I am the commander of the Roiger Regiment of the Demon King’s 3rd Army Corps.”
Royger stepped forward and said.
When it came to killing time, nothing was better than talking.
“Who are you…?”
But before he could finish speaking, humans started rushing in.
‘Damn it!’
Roiger raised his magic in preparation for an attack.
But contrary to expectations, they passed by Roger without a fight.
Humans running straight to the saint.
I was overcome with anger at the thought of being ignored and embarrassed.
“How dare you…!”
Magi exploded along with Noh Ho-seong.
Black magic stretching out in all directions.
The humans evaded with quick movements, and eventually Roiger was only able to tie up the foot of one.
“Stop it!”
The battalion commanders who immediately grasped the situation stepped in, but even they were not enough.
They also stopped one, but there are still enemies left.
The last human to escape the siege.
He reaches the saint.
The sword was imbued with a sharp aura.
For a moment, Roger’s eyes lit up.
‘Is the life directed towards the saint…?’
Why is that?
The sword’s intent was directed at the next saint, Abelson Mariott.
An idea flashed through Roger.
‘Could it be that the goal was not to rescue the saint, but to kill her!?’
A human kills a saint.
I didn’t expect that at all.
That’s why I couldn’t help but be more defenseless.
‘It’s the end.’
The only person standing before the saint is a human named Choi Hyeon-seok.
I know quite a bit about it, as it’s been a hot topic within the Legion recently.
I know that Choi Hyun-seok has gotten stronger quickly, but he is still only a company commander.
In contrast, he is a strong player with a level of difficulty that even a small Roiger would find burdensome.
There’s no way Choi Hyun-seok can endure it.
The moment I thought that.
Roger’s eyes opened wide.
Kyaang!
Choi Hyun-seok’s foot and sword clash as he strikes down.
Of course, I thought it would end with Choi Hyun-seok’s leg being cleanly cut off, but the result went in a completely unexpected direction.
Kwaaaaaaaah-!
Choi Hyun-seok’s foot pushed the sword away and struck the enemy’s head.
‘That’s Raidrun’s speculation…’
It was a technique that Royger had also seen before.
Raidrun’s unique speculative ability requires extremely tricky control, despite its seemingly innocuous appearance.
Humans were perfecting such techniques.
“Ugh…?”
I suddenly got up from where my head had been hit on the floor.
The guy was confused.
Even the person who was attacked looked puzzled as to why he was pushed back by Choi Hyun-seok.
It can’t be helped.
For him, he was dealt a serious blow by an enemy who was no different from a child.
At that moment, Roger’s eyes flashed.
‘Now is the time!’
Now is the time to protect the saint.
“Everyone, protect the saint! Their goal is to kill the saint!”
Originally, the saint would have been defeated cleanly with her death, but the situation changed.
Thanks to Choi Hyun-seok, I bought some time and also found out what their purpose was.
‘It won’t be easy, but I have to do it.’
Royger went into the fight prepared to give up his life.
A Demon King’s Army officer is risking his life to protect a human saint.
It may sound like a boring joke, but I can’t help it.
Hemis’s voice was still ringing in my ears.
“You have to take good care of the next saint while I’m away. Do you know what I mean?”
If his beloved saint died, the legion commander might go mad.
The commander usually appears gentle, but Royger knows.
That a mad witch sleeps inside her.
Royger didn’t even want to imagine what would happen if that witch woke up.
“You must protect the saint even at the cost of your worthless lives!”
Roiger, shouting and emitting magic energy, was more desperate than ever.
