My Villains Episode 164
41. Blood Knight (1)
It was my first time.
Going to a bar alone, drinking soju alone, and drinking four bottles of soju alone.
I hurriedly organized the photo album. In a world spinning round and round, pairs of eyes swirled around each other.
I dug out everything I sympathized with, everything I felt sorry for, and everything I laughed at.
The noisy bar became quiet.
Five, no, six? About the time I put down the second bottle of soju, someone sat across from me.
“brother.”
There are few people in the world who call me that. Among them, there is only one person who is this pretty.
“Soh, hey? Jeong So-ha?”
“yes.”
“Are you here? “How did you come?”
“I’m taking a taxi.”
“No no no, not that.”
He wiped his face and closed his eyes.
“hmm. “What brings you here?”
” ah.”
Soha came up with words that fit her lips.
“… … “Your brother called.”
“I? to you? “You called?”
“yes.”
“I? “Uh, that can’t be possible.”
I turned the smartphone over and tapped the screen.
“wait for a sec. Look at the call history… …
No matter how many times I tapped, the black screen did not brighten.
“damn. “It’s like a dog, really.”
“Don’t do this, go home. “I will take you there.”
“Oh, let go. “Don’t touch me.”
As my upper body swayed, the world spun again. She begged for a long time while being held in Heewon’s arms.
“Don’t get married, fuck it.”
“You just have to wait, you bitch.”
“brother.”
“Fuck you, the army didn’t even wait for you.”
“brother. “Wake up.”
“and you. “Why are you so rude?”
“••••••Phew.”
“Is it okay if I just send one Facebook message? Why did you change your phone number?”
Red lips muttered something. I couldn’t hear it, but it was a terrible word.
“Uh, what?”
I can’t watch it. “No way.”
“Huh?”
My vision darkened.
It was a very long dark battle.
♦ 氷 ♦
The world flashed white.
Gurgling!
When the thunder struck, those standing on the hill were shocked and fell to their stomachs.
“Off,”
Utequai, who was covering his eyes with his thick arms, stumbled with arrogance. His muscles were contracting and relaxing at will. It was because he was electrocuted by an electric current that spread through the ground.
“Fidhos!”
Utekwai, who spat out a curse, shook his head a couple of times. He barely came to his senses and quickly checked the situation.
“The bloody prosecutor has fallen!”
When I quickly turned my head at the shout of a mercenary, I saw Phoenix lying on the floor, smoking. Because she was hit squarely by lightning, there was no movement.
Some distance away, Amias’ gang was rolling on the ground.
“Purrrrrrrrr,”
“Oh my god, damn it.”
They were struggling to get up, their limbs struggling. It looks like he wasn’t hit directly by lightning.
Utequai ran straight towards Phoenix. This was because a young man in a black cloak was approaching Phoenics with his long sword drawn.
“Aqun (this guy)-!”
Tobias bit his lower lip as he heard Utequai’s fierce roar. He did not have the confidence to handle the barbarian warrior who was charging at him like an angry bear. He hurriedly retreated behind him and shouted at the confused mercenaries.
“We must regroup! Get ready for battle!”
“Don’t give a fuck, we’re leaving!”
Norman, one of the mercenary leaders, was angry at the bottom of the slope.
“Don’t even think about it, kid. Dealing with a fire witch here is crazy!”
The young bounty hunter quickly glanced at the mercenaries.
There were more than 70 mercenaries hiding at the bottom of the hill. However, most of them were killed or rendered incapable of fighting due to the barrage of fireballs that rained down from nowhere.
The good news was that all of those who survived were veterans and did not panic. Moreover, Norman and March, who are considered next in line to Randall, are alive.
Since it remained, it wasn’t impossible to control.
After finishing his judgment, Tobias raised his voice.
“The bloody swordsman has been neutralized, and we have a wizard who can control lightning! Complete the request and get the gold and silver!”
“Gold and silver? “You son of a bitch, half of my men have been reduced to charcoal!”
Tobias shot back coldly at the shouts of the leader, March, whose sideburns had burned out.
“Then fight even harder, if you want to save even half of the others!”
“what?”
“Do you think you can survive if you step back now! “Either we will be struck by lightning by our wizard, or we will be consumed by the witch’s flames!”
Tobias shouted again at the mercenaries whose faces turned pale.
“There is only one choice given to you!”
visor!
His longsword pointed at the top of the hill.
At the place where the tip of the sword was pointing, Utequai was pouring a potion on Phoenix, and Amias’ gang was standing up shakily.
“Kill them all! “That’s it!”
Immediately after Phoenix was struck by lightning and fell, Ellen lost her temper for a moment.
The reason she didn’t fly over the bushes and fire spells was thanks to the two people that Phoenix had attached as her guards.
“Look over there, Ellen. Mr. Hatanka is using the potion.”
Archer Kol, who had been trying to stop Ellen with Druid Xanabas, pointed towards Phoenix.
“You are still alive. So, you must remain calm.”
Eyes emitting bright blue light followed Cole’s fingers.
“••••••Phew.”
With a small sigh, Ellen quickly regained her composure. She tried to understand her situation, concentrating the mana she drew from her crystal orb.
‘It was a lightning spell. Must be the palace wizard. They must be the ones who followed me.’
When the flashing eye light subsided, Ellen chanted a spell and summoned the ‘Dance Spirit.’
‘Is he a Grand Master? No, those old people couldn’t have moved. Then, if you can at least imitate the lightning spell… …
As the wind began to gather, she thought of four people.
‘Galnar wouldn’t have come in person. Aktufir is not the type of person to care about such things. His aunt… … ‘Probably not.’ Ellen whispered to the wind with her ego. Her dancing spirit followed her orders and disappeared somewhere.
‘It’s obvious. The guy who was given the title of master by flattering Galnar, even though he could only handle one element.’
He was not someone to be looked down on.
As Ellen knows, Widal used to be a wandering mercenary when he was young. This means that he has quite a wealth of experience, unlike other wizards who are confined to the palace and only practice.
‘He’ll be good at fighting too.’
Ellen wasn’t scared.
Since she set foot on the docks of South Harbor four months ago, no, since she came into the world seven months ago, she has crossed the line of fire countless times. The experience accumulated so far was enough to transform the seventeen-year-old into a fire witch.
“Janabas. Transform into a wolf.”
“… … yes?”
“Turn into a wolf. Right Now.”
An expressionless face and a cold voice. Xanabas swallowed her dry saliva at Ellen’s sudden change in mood.
She once threw a frost pick at Ethan and Simos without hesitation. The mood she gave back then was the same as it is now.
“Hurry.”
“Oh, I understand.”
Xanabas immediately transformed into a gray wolf, and Ellen climbed on top of it and took out a rope from her backpack left on the floor. She then looked back at her call, putting the rope in the wolf’s jaw as if reining her horse.
“You go and help your friends.”
“But my role is Ellen.”
” go.”
She drove the wolf and disappeared somewhere, leaving only those words.
“O……”
•
Cole, who was watching the scene behind him, soon ran out of the bush.
“Hmm.”
In the small space in the middle of the cliff, The Big was looking down at the hill with his eyebrows narrowed.
I don’t know what Tobias was roasting, but the surviving mercenaries were slowly approaching the hill in a fighting stance.
“Dog, let go!”
At the harsh shout of a man, the fighting dogs that were holding their breath among the mercenaries all rushed forward.
Although the fighting dogs were only a handful, they were quite threatening. Even if they were wolves, they were so big and ferocious that they ran and attacked as if they were folding the ground, so there was no way they wouldn’t be a threat.
Kwang, kung!
As the one with a face full of scars took the lead and barked furiously, the others also growled, gaining momentum and speeding up.
At the top of the hill, eight people were camped in a small camp centered around the fallen Poynix.
Rumble.
Between them, two large stone statues over 2 meters tall stood up. They were golems summoned by Siren, the wizard of the Rao family.
The barbarian warrior who saw the sight suddenly jumped forward and swung a huge stone sword.
“Wow!”
Utequai’s scream echoed all the way to the cliff. Along with him, dogs covered in blood soared into the sky.
However, a well-trained fighting dog would not curl its tail that much.
Led by their leader, they passed through Ute Kwai and attacked the phalanx.
Grrr!
The fighting dogs kept their posture low and targeted the ankles, thighs, and cervix. Then, when it seemed like he was going to be attacked back, he would quickly twist his neck and cling to the weapon or shield.
“Oh shit-”
The brown fighting dog was instantly split by the ax wielded by Stedman. Then, the long-muzzled fighting dogs that were following him attacked one after another and hung down with the shield in their mouths.
The attacks of the war dogs were certainly annoying, but not enough to injure a heavily armored warrior.
Norman and March, who knew this well, hurriedly climbed the hill and shouted.
“Now is the time, shoot!”
Mercenaries carrying bows and crossbows immediately rained down a barrage of arrows. The fighting dogs were targeting the upper body and neck while pulling down the shield and biting the ankles.
Kkaegaeng, Kkaegaegaeng
Three or four dogs were hit by blind arrows and fell to the ground, but the mercenaries paid no heed and rained down arrows.
The Amias gang, the magic swordsman Simos, and the Rao family’s siblings hid themselves as much as possible, using the golems as a barrier. The fighting dogs clung to them tenaciously.
“Keck!”
“Jenessa!”
Jenessa, who was swinging a spear at a dog that bit her ankle, was hit by an arrow in the chest and fell down.
“Huh-’’
An arrowhead must have pierced her lungs, and she twisted her body with a sound of deflation. Her freckled mummy screamed at Amias, who was startled and tried to look back at Jenessa.
“You stupid bastard!”
Mira, who lowered her upper body to block the crossbow, swung her sword to the side. The fighting dog that was attacking Amias crackled in its mouth after being hit by the sword.
“Look ahead!”
“shit.”
As the fragrant smell of spicy food wafted right in front of his nose, Amias gritted his teeth and adjusted his grip on his shield.
“Athar Marta (Mother God)-!”
Ute Kwai charged at the mercenaries who rained down arrows while letting out a battle cry.
The mercenaries did not fire arrows at Utequai. He had already done enough research to know that arrows would not hit him due to the strange tattoo on his shoulder.
“wait! Ready, ready-”
The mercenaries were clearly veterans.
The proof was that they remained unfazed even when a large figure about two heads taller than them charged at them.
Norman, the leader of the mercenaries with bloodshot whites on his eyes, shouted as if screaming.
“Now!”
At his slogan, the mercenaries at the forefront crouched down, and the rest covered their eyes with their hands. Then the mercenary wizard who was preparing a spell held out his wand.
“Skaiel’ lyas (Shine)!”
Light flashed from the crystal ball at the end of the staff.
“Ugh,”
While Utequai was blinded by the flash of light, five mercenaries threw their nets as if they had been waiting.
Skillful movements reminiscent of fishermen. The nets spread out at once, wrapping the huge body in five layers.
“Okay, got it!”
“Kill it!”
Hearing the mercenaries’ growls, Utequai struggled wildly.
“Uuuh-!”
Although he showed great strength, the net hardly broke. This is because the thing holding Utequai together was no ordinary net.
A net strengthened by attaching iron hooks to each node on a thick braided rope… … . It was an object designed to catch giants such as hippogriffs, wyverns, and trolls.
“Stab!”
The mercenaries surrounding Utequai lashed out with their spears.
Flash!
“Ugh!”
Norman, who launched his spear for the first time, was thrown back badly. The tattoo on Utequai’s back glowed and was pushed away.
However, the ‘Blessing Tattoo of the Night Sky’ immediately fell silent as if it had finished its work, and the subsequent attacks began to irritate the reddish skin without any resistance.
Phuuk-
“Big,”
As Utequai, who had been stabbed in the knee by a spear blade, groaned and staggered, the mercenaries gained momentum and swung their blades wildly.
Utequai’s skin was much tougher than that of most animals, but it was not strong enough to bounce off weapons wielded with all their might by skilled mercenaries.
As he fell down with blood dripping from all over his body, Norman, who had jumped out, smiled triumphantly and pulled out his sword.
“Move over, I’ll finish!”
He approached Utequai, stepping through the net, which was as thick as a carpet. He then lifted his head up from the floor.
“Ha, what? Red bear?”
Norman’s left hand was filled with long braided hair, a fully decorated feather hat, and several strands of net rope. He hit Utequoi, who was covered in blood, with the back of his sword.
“I’m shaking like crazy. “Where is the savage brat so arrogant?”
Norman, who was giggling, closed his mouth in surprise. Ute Kwai’s eyes flashed open, and she let out a pitch-black glow.
“Oh, Xpal, I’m surprised. “What is this?”
“Okay.”
“••••••what?”
“Grrrrrrgh!”
Suddenly, the net was pulled.
Craddangtang!
Norman, who fell backwards, instinctively screamed.
“Kill this bastard!”
But before the shouting ended, Utequai stood up. His blood-soaked muscles were stronger than before, and his stomach was greatly swollen.
“Woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!”
The Great Warrior of the Plains let out a roar that was even more fierce and loud than anything he had heard before.
Through his many battles, Utequai became closer to his ‘mother’.
Puddeuddeuk-
As if to prove it, he was reborn as a true berserker and tore through five layers of iron net in one go.
“Kill these idiots, duh.”
Sigh.
The berserker pounced on Norman, who was yelling, and grabbed his face.
Pukak!
I immediately pulled out the head.
“Hehehe.”
Utequai lifted its long, tail-less head above its head.
Red blood poured down his face and shoulders. The body covered in blood hissed and exhaled steam.
“What the fuck… …
With someone muttering, the mercenaries’ faces bleached white.
