Episode 10. Dragon Slayer
The conversation with Hysteria was successful.
He eventually had no choice but to accept my offer.
Actually, if it were me, I wouldn’t have been able to refuse it. Because the opportunity to catch Gunteo is rare.
Siegfried asked, picking his nose.
“Are you greater than you think? How can you not lose a word against a guy like that? “I think I would cut off your head if I had to.”
I answered while slowly walking through the rose flower field in the center of the garden.
“I would never have done that. “Because he doesn’t kill someone unless he has a clear cause.”
“okay? To me, he just looked like a murderer. Especially when wiping the blood off the blade with your tongue… . Wow, I never thought there would be someone like that among my descendants!”
Hysteria is a killer.
However, the targets for which he took such actions were limited.
He only shows madness against those clearly identified as ‘enemies’ by his family, and does not suddenly go crazy and swing his sword without any justification.
‘of course.’
Those who are not family are cut down mercilessly.
“is it so? I heard that Sword God was also called a ghost on the battlefield.”
“That and this are different! The reason I was called a ghost was because of my skills. “That guy was really out of his mind just a moment ago.”
“Yes, yes, I guess so.”
It may be the same for everyone who is affected.
“Anyway, when are you planning to get the second Bae Hu-ryeong?”
“Second Bae Hu-ryeong?”
“Yeah, it looks like there’s no one in the castle today. Why don’t you secretly go to the warehouse and break one more jar? “There must be a lot of useful people there.”
Since this is the second Bae Hu-ryeong, there would be no harm in moving ahead before someone else catches him.
I waved my hand in the air, pushed Siegfried away, and walked through the garden again.
“I won’t ask for it within the castle.”
“why?”
“Because no one needs it.”
“then? “Where are you going to get it?”
Ever since I brought in Siegfried, I have been thinking about the next Bae Hu-ryeong.
Who would be the best match for me if I brought in? It didn’t take long for an answer to come out.
In my past life, when I was young, Bae Hu-ryeong’s owner disappeared and I couldn’t even see him.
Bae Hu-ryeong is so amazing that he can be compared to Siegfried the Sword God.
“Sword God, do you know who the strongest wizard in history is?”
“The strongest wizard?”
“Yes, there was a war with the Strange family for a hundred years.”
“The Hundred Years’ War.”
“A half-human, half-yo, said to be the strongest monster in history.”
“Half human and half. Half human?!”
Siegfried opened his eyes and pointed at me with his finger.
“no way.”
“Brunhild von Glaser.”
“?!”
“The first head of a famous magic family. Why not bring her to her second territory?”
* * *
The night I decided to get Bae Hu-ryeong for the second time.
I secretly came out of the castle.
It was not difficult to escape the attention of the guardian knights. Not only within the castle, but all the roads around here are clearly visible, and even the hidden passages and paths that the guards don’t know about are memorized, so they can’t be caught.
“But do you know who Brunhild is?”
There’s no way you wouldn’t know.
He was said to be the Strange family’s greatest enemy.
“Yes, I was sick of hearing it from my nanny when I was young. “She appeared in every children’s book I read.”
“fairy tale book?”
“Yes, the ancestor of the great Strange family has finally defeated the demon Brunhild! And this continent gained peace!”
Siegfried shook his head.
“… … It’s a plague. Does it make sense that peace will come just because you killed Brunhild?”
“Why not?”
“That bitch, she was a demon and she had a bad temper. “He wasn’t a villain.”
“You speak like someone you’ve just met?”
“then! “Not only have we met, but we’ve also fought.”
“You’re lying, right? A man named Brunhilt died before the Sword God was born.”
Siegfried answered with an angry expression, making his body gigantic.
Grumble!
“Why are you lying, that bitch was my Bae Hu-ryeong, you bastard!”
surprised.
I was so shocked that I couldn’t close my mouth. It was my first time hearing this story.
A secret I never told in my past life.
No, isn’t it a secret? I see you say it so easily.
‘but.’
I didn’t even ask questions about it back then.

Because I didn’t even wonder who Siegfried Bae Hu-ryeong was. Not only that, he wasn’t good at conversation. At that time, he was angry every day, saying that teaching me was a disgrace in itself.
Of course, after I entered the academy, they recognized my talent and actively educated me.
Before that, I had such a bad habit of saying, ‘You stupid bastard!’
“Then, Master, did you learn swordsmanship from Brunhild?”
“Do you think that makes sense now? She’s a wizard, wizard. “I don’t know how to use a sword.”
“But why did you choose Bae Hu-ryeong?”
“… “There were circumstances for that.”
Siegfried looked into the distance as if immersed in memories, then his face contorted and his fists clenched.
Grumbling.
A reaction that most likely indicates that something bad has happened.
“Hey, that’s enough. “Can’t we just get another Bae Hu-ryeong?”
“why.”
“That bitch doesn’t suit me. “If we put them together, I might run away.”
I shook my head with a stern expression.
“Don’t talk nonsense. Bae Hu-ryeong cannot leave unless the contractor gives permission.”
“… … .”
“And, I don’t know what happened between you two. “I have already decided to bring Brunhild.”
Siegfried let out a long sigh and nodded slightly.
Judging by the fact that there was no major rejection, there must not have been any major problems between the two.
“By the way, do you know where Brunhild is? “That bitch is not Bae Hu-ryeong, who stays in one place like me.”
“No, I don’t know.”
“what? “You don’t know?”
“yes.”
Of course there is no way to know.
Because no one knows Brunhild’s whereabouts. Not only in Strange, but also in Glaser.
“no! “Did you really try to bring that bitch back without even knowing where she was?”
“Yes, but I can find it.”
“What does that mean?”
“There are descendants of Brunhild in this forest. “If you use their abilities, you’ll find them in no time.”
“Brunhild’s descendants… . “Are you sure you’re talking about the Glazers?”
I shook my head lightly.
“Would I have come all the way here at this hour to meet a wizard? And this is the territory of the Strange family, not the Glazers.”
“then… .”
Siegfried seemed to remember something and said, ‘Ah!’ He sighed.
“Are you really out of your mind?”
His reaction was very natural.
The person I am about to meet now is not a human, but a being called the owner of this forest.
“Yes, if you were in your right mind you wouldn’t have come this far.”
* * *
The dark forest is very dangerous.
Because it is crowded with not only wild beasts but also monsters.
However, there were people who moved around at this time.
A group of white cloaks stalk the forest like hungry hounds while everyone is sleeping.
At a rough count, there appeared to be fifteen people, moving stealthily without warning.
“Did you find it?”
A young man with a crescent moon tattoo on his forehead asked. An old man with a bushy beard nodded his head slightly.
“Yes, Master Edward.”
Edward von Glaser.
Heir to the Glazer family, the owner of the eastern part of the continent and a renowned magic family.
He was a genius who graduated from the academy at the age of only 15, and he was a supernova who attracted so much attention that it was said that the only wizard stronger than him was the head of the family, Hagen.
“Where is it?”
“Approximately 500 meters to the northwest. “It appears to be hungry and moving in search of food.”
“How many?”
“One animal, moving alone.”
“Are you sure?”
“Yes, you have waited a long time.”
“… … “The opportunity has finally come.”
“I think we need to move quickly before he joins the group.”
“Then let’s get started without delay. “This is Strange’s territory.”
“Yes, master.”
With a single gesture from Edward, those who appeared to be wizards began to move in unison.
The unit moved around, changing its form depending on the terrain, just like migratory birds looking for a resting place.
Not long after, we arrived at a place where there was a ‘Giant Ogre’, who is said to be the owner of this forest.
Unlike regular ogres, the Giant Ogre is a mutant with three heads, and is so powerful that it is said to be able to send off regular ogres with a single fist and take on a company of 3-star knights alone.
Despite this, the wizards gathered here were not afraid at all.
Rather, as soon as they discovered their target, they spread out in a circle and prepared for battle.
It’s like he’s been waiting for this moment.
“You must not kill him, you must capture him alive.”
Crash.
Edward rushed towards the giant ogre without hesitation.
“The 1st platoon is to be restrained, and the 2nd platoon is to memorize the confusion spell.”
As soon as the command was issued, a group of people wearing white robes chanted a spell towards the Giant Ogre.
“Impact Chain!”
“Chaos Smoke!”
Sigh!
The chain made of mana instantly bound the Giant Ogre’s arms and legs, preventing it from moving. The gray fog that followed covered his face and obscured his vision.
-Uuuuuu!
The Giant Ogre struggled greatly, but the chains grew thicker and the fog became thicker.
The more he resisted, the stronger the magic grip on the ogre became. The spell currently binding the ogre is a ‘curse-type’ ability that is different from regular magic.
The people here were wizards who had unlocked at least 5 circles of mana.
“Frozen Arrow.”
Blue smoke rose from Edward’s hands, and then a boom! With the sound, the mana froze and took the form of a large longbow.
He took a deep breath and without hesitation aimed at the Giant Ogre’s chest.
bang!
The ice arrow flew like a fish and pierced the ogre’s chest.
Kwasik!
“Kuuuuu!”
The hunt was over in an instant.
Even though the Giant Ogre had great strength, it was extremely helpless in the face of magic.
The Giant Ogre was not weak. It’s just that the wizards were too strong.
After finishing the hunt, the wizards hurried to check whether the giant ogre was alive or dead.
The middle-aged wizard checked the condition through pulse and breathing and said with a meaningful expression.
“Master, it was successful.”
Edward clenched his fist and responded with a bright smile.
“Thank you for your hard work. “You ended up staying in this forest for a month because of me.”
“What trouble! “I just did what I had to do.”
The middle-aged man took a step back, put his hands together and bowed his head deeply.
While they were talking, the lower level wizards bound the Giant Ogre with mana chains.
They were as happy as the time they spent catching the giant ogre. We spent a month in the forest for this moment, so how much deeper our relationship must have become.
After the wizards finished their work, let’s force the guy to stand up.
Coo goo goo.
Edward, who was watching the scene, raised his voice.
“Let’s all go back and have a toast!”
The wizards who went hunting together clapped their hands and congratulated him.
But his joy was fleeting.
As the wizards cheered, a purple pillar fell from the sky.
Quang!
A blond boy appeared from nowhere, grabbed Edward’s back and aimed the blade at his neck.
Sigh.
“So far. If there is a guy who even lifts a finger. “I will cut off this guy’s head right away.”
