Episode 118

“Karon!”

Zeros screamed in an urgent voice. Shinba, who was standing nearby, also stiffened.

“As expected, Hector… … !”

“amazing! “It completely overwhelms that Charon Woodjack!”

On the other hand, exclamation and cheers erupted from Hector and his group.

I finally got a real kick out of that arrogant guy… … !

Sereung-.

Charon was not swayed by that atmosphere.

He calmly pulled out an extra dagger and immediately resumed fighting.

Kakakang!

However, immediately after sharing a few sums again, Charon had no choice but to admit it.

‘I’m being pushed from the front.’

My pride wasn’t particularly hurt.

Charon’s main weapon is not a dagger, and close combat is also not his specialty.

Of course, apart from that fact, he can use most weapons skillfully… … .

The weapon that fits best in the hand is a bow, and the fighting method is hunting rather than fighting from the front.

‘Considering that… … .’

It is difficult to say that the place inside the cave is the main stage of Charon.

Even an outsider can tell that this is a difficult place to shoot an arrow.

In other words, bringing Hector here was a self-destruction… … .

It would have been a different story if I had had a crossbow, but I didn’t have that level of equipment.

‘then… … .’

Should we just pretend that the confrontation never happened?

It is to return the situation to the beginning.

If they fight against each other again and wait until the [Owner of the Cave] returns, Hector will eventually have no choice but to accept Charon’s offer.

Because I know that that guy is surprisingly caring about his colleagues.

비겁한 짓이 되겠지만, 카론은 딱히 그러한 행위에 거부감이 없다.

말로만 맺은 약속 따위에 무슨 효력이 있다고.

하지만.

‘…….’

어쩐지 헥토르를 이 자리에서 철저히 짓밟고 싶단 오기가 치솟았다.

그건 카론으로서도 생소한 감정이었다.

“재밌군. 그렇다면 이제부턴 나도-.”

전혀 상상 못 한 일이 벌어진 건 그 순간이었다.

꽈르르르릉!

돌연 하늘이 부서지는 커다란 굉음과 함께, 실제로 동굴 천장이 무너져 내리기 시작했다.

“……!”

부서진 돌조각이 우박처럼 쏟아진다.

그중엔 바위라 불려도 손색이 없을 만큼 커다란 것도 섞여 있었기에, 카론은 급히 회피에 집중할 수밖에 없었다.

쿠르르르르…….

쏟아지던 돌무더기를 모두 피한 카론은, 기도를 찌르는 흙먼지 때문에 쿨럭거렸다.

‘이게 뭔-.’

그 순간 아직 완전히 가라앉지 않은 흙먼지 속에서, 어떤 거대한 존재가 허리를 펴는 광경이 보였다.

“……!”

고개를 뒤로 젖혀야 확인할 수 있을 만큼 커다란 체격, 누더기 같은 천 아래에 언뜻 보이는 창백한 피부.

그리고 손에 쥐어진 거목만 한 나무 몽둥이.

‘-동굴의 주인!’

설마 동굴 천장을 부수며 진입한 건가?

말도 안 되는 일이지만, 저 존재의 괴력이라면 불가능한 일은 아닐지도 모른다.

카론은 즉시 주변을 살폈다.

흙먼지 때문에 동굴 내부의 지형이 바뀌었다.

조금 떨어진 곳에서 구경하고 있던 영도들이 보이지 않는다.

설마 깔려 죽은 걸까?

그건 아닐 거다. 뜻밖의 상황이었지만, 대처 못 하고 개죽음당할 만큼 어설픈 놈들은 아니다.

아마 쏟아진 돌무더기가 시야를 가로막고 있는 상황이라 보는 편이 맞다.

문제는, 떨어진 돌무더기가 출구를 막아 버렸단 건데.

“피해라!”

문득 들린 외침에 카론이 퍼뜩 정신을 차리며 몸을 굴렸다.

콰아아아앙!

A wooden club hit the ground where I had been standing just a moment ago. The hard cave floor shattered as if it were a glass window.

It was still so destructive that it gave me goosebumps.

‘… … .’

At first glance, there is a sense of discomfort.

I’ve had a fight with the cave owner before, but it somehow feels different than back then.

It seems much more aggressive than before.

Charon, who looked directly at the guy for a moment, soon realized the reason.

‘Are you hurt?’

The mat was stained with blood, and if you look closely, you can see that he is breathing heavily.

It looks like you’ve been hurt quite a bit… … . If so, this sudden appearance may not have been what the cave owner intended.

As if being chased by something, it hastily returned to its nest.

But who on earth could hurt this guy?

“Charon.”

Hector took advantage of the dust and approached.

“What.”

“The ceiling just collapsed, blocking the entrance to the cave. I don’t know whether my group members or your group members are alive or dead. “They are not people who will die easily, but it means we cannot expect cooperation right away.”

“so.”

“The only exit I can see right now is the ceiling it broke through, but I don’t think it’ll sit around while we climb the rock wall.”

“Just get to the point.”

“How about we cooperate just until we take that guy down?”

Charon’s eyebrows twitched.

Hector also sighed and added.

“It’s because this is the only method that comes to mind right now. Or do you have any other good ideas?”

Charon analyzed the situation for a moment, then followed Hector in sighing.

“… no.”

“good. Well, I’m not in a situation where I can afford it, so I’ll be brief. “I’ll take my time in front of you, and you aim for that guy’s vital spot with an arrow.”

Wow!

The monster’s screams echoed through the collapsed cave.

The sound was so loud that stone chips fell from the cave walls.

The moment Charon covered his ears for a moment, Hector really rushed towards the owner of the cave alone.

‘What does that guy believe?’

For a moment, I looked at the back with a puzzled expression on my face.

With Charon’s mobility, Hector can easily run away while Hector is biding his time, and in fact, it is much more reasonable to do so.

It was already after one subjugation battle that I realized that the owner of the cave was a powerful enemy.

‘Good.’

You fight that monster. Until I run away.

Charon laughed at Hector and turned his back.

‘… … .’

That’s how it should be.

Charon again saw Hector fighting with the owner of the cave.

Without even looking back once, he fights head-on with a monster that is close to 10 meters away.

It’s like someone who doesn’t even consider the possibility of Charon running away.

He’s a funny guy.

When was trust formed between us?

“… shit.”

Charon immediately took out the longbow strapped to his back and aimed at the owner of the cave.

What I realized while fighting that monster the other day was that it had skin that couldn’t even be scratched by most attacks.

In addition, he possesses the strength to uproot a large tree with his bare hands.

The movement itself was a bit slow, but the explosive speed at the moment of attack was not negligible.

Because of that, Charon decided that he could not hunt it with his current power and equipment.

‘now… … .’

When fighting to the death rather than hunting.

Where is the vital point?

At that very moment, Charon’s eyes sparkled with golden light.

[The protection of insight.]

Last time I used this protection, I couldn’t find its weakness, but it might be different now that it’s injured.

Ugh-!

And I saw a red air current swirling around the body of the cave owner.

‘face? no. Is it around the neck?’

It looks like he got injured near Mokul University, but if that’s true, he’s an incredibly tough guy.

One of the basics of hunting is calculating the amount of blood loss.

Although he was a large man, considering the amount of blood he spilled, it would not be surprising if he had died long ago.

But the wooden club he moves is still fast and destructive.

However, unlike before, weaknesses were discovered.

There was proof that it was worth doing.

The moment Charon released the tightly pulled bowstring, “Ping.” The arrow flew away with a sound.

A faint halo of light enveloped the arrow as it flew, and its speed increased explosively along the way.

It was a physically impossible phenomenon, but this was God’s grace and protection.

Charon applied two blessings to the arrow.

The first [Blessing of Throwing] literally increases the power and speed of all throwing and shooting attacks.

second is-.

Kwaaaang!

“… … !”

Hector was startled by the sudden sound of an explosion. The moment the arrow hit, a small explosion occurred.

Did they put some explosives in it?

Hector’s prediction was wrong.

Charon’s [Blessing of Explosion] can explode objects it touches after a certain period of time.

‘To be honest, the compatibility with the throwing blessing is not good… … .’

The power of the explosion increases over time, so it was not suitable for a weapon like an arrow.

Although it is now used for slightly stronger attack power.

As a result, the arrow hit the vital spot of the cave owner.

Anyway, the attack just went right.

For the first time, the movement of swinging the club like a madman stopped, and Hector instinctively realized that this was his first and last chance.

Wow… … !

The moment the cave owner got down on one knee, Hector immediately jumped.

It is a monster that is almost 10 meters tall, so one leap is not enough.

Hector, who landed on the enemy’s lap, ran straight through the body of this ferocious giant and quickly reached its neck.

‘The neck is too thick.’

With Hector’s sword, it seems difficult to cut in one breath.

In general, that would be the case.

Crackling.

The sword energy that ran from the hilt appeared bluish all over the blade.

In that state, he twisted his wrist to make a unique variation, and an afterimage of the blade appeared along with a strange shaking.

Hector’s swordsmanship, the remnant sword, was unleashed.

Squeak!

Although I only swung it once, it made a sound as if I had been slashed continuously.

Then, blood spurted out from the monster’s neck.

‘Did you get rid of it?’

The texture is authentic.

It felt like the cervical spine was clearly cut, not just the blood vessels were damaged.

“You idiot! damage!”

The moment he heard Charon’s voice, Hector jumped out of the giant’s body without delay.

Huh! It felt like something like a mace had grazed my hair.

Did he swing a club right before he died?

If I had been hit the right way, my whole body would have turned to mush. Hector felt his hair stand on end.

Kuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu… … !

And the owner of the cave finally fell.

As a big guy, it created a huge amount of dust when it fell.

“… “Is he dead?”

Charon must have heard Hector’s muttering, and drew the bowstring.

There were three arrows hanging on the bowstring.

Pipiping-.

As if by magic, all three arrows hit different vital points of the fallen giant.

Pretzel Gwang… … .

And then there were three small explosions.

The owner of the cave did not even move, and soon his body began to be enveloped in a halo of light.

“Whoa… … .”

Seeing that, Charon and Hector completely let go of their tension at the same time.

Hector looked down at his sword in a dazed mood.

‘The remnant sword that was just unfolded… … .’

It was much more powerful than usual, but I wasn’t even sure how I pulled it off.

If I were to try to rewrite it right now, I wouldn’t be confident that I could reproduce it.

‘If I could make that feeling mine… … .’

That might be the clue that leads to the next level.

Meanwhile, Charon was looking at the slowly disappearing body of the owner of the cave.

As expected from a big guy, he was slow to disappear.

‘Somehow, the two of us managed to defeat it.’

It’s somehow unclear.

If this monster had not been injured in the first place, there would have been no chance of victory.

The thoughts that had stopped due to the battle began to flow again.

Why was this guy hurt?

Now that I think about it, the movements and expressions when he first appeared after breaking the ceiling of the cave were like that.

‘-He is urgent, as if he is being chased by something and is frightened… … .’

Charon saw where the owner of the cave had fallen.

Beyond the shattered ceiling of the cave, the cold expanse of winter stretched out, and the sun revealed its strong presence.

“… … ?”

A shadow was cast on the sun for a moment.

The moment I thought, “What is that?”

Wow!

Something fell with a loud sound.

Rather than falling, it was fast, as if he had leapt toward the ground and landed on it.

So much so that even Charon, who was looking at the sky the whole time, couldn’t capture it properly.

“… what? “Why is this guy dead?”

And Hector couldn’t believe his ears when he suddenly heard a voice.

From the dust, a familiar blonde-haired Youngdo was seen raising his head.

“… Luan Badniker?”

“huh?”

Luan looked around and said with a somewhat blank face.

“Karon?”

Charon trembled.

“And Hector.”

Hector was unable to persuade his brother to join him like usual.

“what.”

Luan said with a smile.

“They were all here.”

It was a reunion between brothers that should have been a joy, but not only Hector but also Charon hesitated.
