My Villains Episode 222

47. Nightmare (4)

It took less than a minute for the unconscious Cole to run away into the innermost room.

“Huh, hoo-”

I sat down with my back against the door and calmed my breathing. At the same time, I prick up my ears, and the pounding noise slowly fades away.

He probably went downstairs after discovering the nurse’s body. They probably think we ran outside.

Well, what kind of stupid murderer in the world would hide in a cell with no room to escape?

“••••••ha.”

Yes, that stupid murderer is me.

No, no. It’s not stupid. I thought I wouldn’t be able to find my other colleagues if I ran outside, so I had no choice but to go upstairs. Yeah, it was something like that.

The roar gradually faded and stopped, and an eerie silence came again.

I think that sign was probably made by ‘Chief Heo’ or something.

No, it’s probably not a person, like the nurse I just met, but a monster. That roar was too loud to be caused by human movement. Even if there was an elephant walking around inside the building, I didn’t think it would be any more noisy than that.

The next thought that came to mind was, proudly, ‘How can I run away?’ or ‘Fucked. It wasn’t like, ‘I’m dead.’

“… … “I need a weapon.”

No matter how powerful Poynix was and possessed the supernatural power of blood magic, it was impossible to fight against a monster the size of an elephant.

No, it might have been possible if it were me before. When he started bleeding, he literally ran wild like a mad dog.

But it seems a little difficult now. I wonder how I would have the courage to hold a Hrunting, but I just can’t do it with my bare hands.

As I was organizing my thoughts, Cole started talking like he was talking in his sleep.

“For today’s training, let’s take a break… … “Okay, get some rest.”

“… … Hey, hey! Are you okay?”

“… … Uh, Phoenix, brother… … Yes, it’s happening now, it’s happening,”

“What are you talking about when you keep falling asleep?”

Cole’s eyes became unfocused and his mouth was half-open as he continued to pick up nonsense.

He seemed to be hallucinating, as he occasionally said things like ‘An angel, an angel’ or ‘Thank you for your words, but I don’t like being a knight. I will die as an adventurer.’

I think it happened because of the nurse’s injection. What kind of medicine did they take to make the taste go away like this?

I dragged Cole, who was laughing heartily, to the bathroom. She turned on the cold water and stuck her face into the sink, but she couldn’t resist, just gulping in and spitting out the water.

“It’s serious… …

I slapped him pretty hard on the cheek a couple of times, but he was still speechless. In the end, I decided to leave Cole on the bed for a while and move on by myself.

I searched the rooms several times, but the only thing I could find that could be used as a weapon was an IV. I made about four or five javelins out of stainless steel bars, and tied them to my waist using a rubber band.

Then, I slowed down and headed back to the stairs.

I slowly opened the fire door to avoid making any sound, and all I could see underneath was blood and a stainless steel rod. The body of the nurse monster is nowhere to be found.

The pale lighting of the stairs combined with the silence sends goosebumps down my spine.

Also, my hands seem to be shaking a little. I’m like this because I see blood.

I looked down the stairs for a moment and eventually carefully took a step back and closed the fire door.

Even if I somehow got through that eerie passageway and reached the lower floor, it felt like a monster named Chief Heo would appear.

It’s not a big deal, really.

The next place I headed to was the terrace next to my room, at the very back of the hallway.

I turned the doorknob on the glass door leading to the terrace, but it was still locked.

Should I force it to open?

I thought it would be noisy if I smashed the doorknob without doing anything, so I looked for a blanket in my room. I tore the blanket in two, took out a handful of cotton, and covered the doorknob of the glass door.

Well, it seems like I can’t help but hear the sound of going out at this rate… … Still, it’s better than not doing anything.

I looked around again, took a deep breath, and slowly turned the doorknob. When she heard the ‘clunk’ sound, she gently applied force,

Kyaang

«Ugh n

The lock shattered with a loud metallic sound. Fortunately, the sound was muffled thanks to covering it with a blanket.

I lay flat on my stomach, watched my surroundings, then slowly opened the door and went out onto the terrace.

Phew.

As the cool wind blew, I took a deep breath. As the cold air fills my lungs, I feel like my stress is relieved a little.

There were a few stylish tables and chairs on the terrace, but there was nothing special about it. I approached the railing, looking carefully around the fence and yard.

“… … good.”

There is also a terrace below. If you go down here, you can look downstairs.

It was also confirmed that the speculation that this mansion would have a total of three floors was true. If you’re in a hurry, you can jump outside.

I was going to go down like this, but just in case, I twisted the blanket into a long line to make a rope. The rope was tied tightly to the railing, and the other end was wrapped around my wrist.

However, despite all my preparation, I was able to get down to the lower terrace very easily.

Well, how could I, who has the strength of ten men, not be able to bear a weight of about 100 kg?

With monkey-like movements, I landed on the second floor terrace and looked through the glass door into the hallway.

“……O ugh”

—M.

The structure was slightly different from the 3rd floor.

The floor height was about 1.5 times higher and the number of rooms was significantly smaller. On the third floor, there were twelve doors lined up around every corner, but there are only four here.

An inexplicable feeling of reluctance kept holding me back. But worry for my colleagues forced me to take my step.

After looking around the empty hallway for a while, I unwrapped the blanket wrapped around my wrist. Then, I wrapped the doorknob with a blanket in the same way as before, and soon the doorknob was shattered with a ‘cracking’ sound.

After holding my breath for a moment, I open the glass door and enter the hallway.

Trudging.

“What?”

I was so shocked that my heart sank and I let out a moan. This is because a pair of figures appeared at the end of the hallway along with the sound of small footsteps.

The two of them were completely black, like they were wearing black tights, like criminals from a detective comic. Inyoung (人影) literally looks like a shadow of a human being walking around.

The two walked straight towards me. Then the pace got faster and faster, and soon it became a run.

“Hey, this guy-”

I quickly closed the door and took a step back. And just as I was about to reach around my waist and pull out the stainless steel javelins,

Kwachang-!

The two people who ran like runners rushed at the glass door, shattering it with their arms and shoulders.

Of the two, the one who ran from the left suddenly bent his upper body right in front of me. Then they grabbed his legs and waist and tackled him.

“Uh-huh”

Unlike my mouth, which made stupid noises, my body reacted quickly.

The legs pulled back were spread out to both sides. With his left hand, he pressed the hand that was chasing Ogeum, and then put his weight on his upper body and pressed the opponent in return.

It was a movement that was repeated until the body and head were blocked while practicing ‘Nabuk’, a traditional martial art of the grasslands.

At the same time, he extended his stainless steel javelin at the guy who was running from the other side.

However, the sharp torn tip of the spear scratched Inyeong’s rock-like skin and was broken in vain.

“This is crazy-”

Before I could even finish speaking, Inyoung threw away the spear and threw a fist. I quickly let go of his spear and caught his fist with the palm of his right hand.

Wow-

w O ugh” —

It is a powerful force that cannot be believed to belong to humans.

When I looked again, both silhouettes were fleshy but had large, well-developed muscles, a typical business body type.

However, over the past few months, I have frequently sparred with monsters who boasted not only the strength of a businessman but the level of heavy equipment.

And from my experience, in rapping, immobility and cleverness are more important than fighting spirit or ferocity.

“■S’ O town

I put my upper body’s weight on the first guy and at the same time grabbed the second guy’s wrist and pulled him hard. The guy who was being dragged out stretched out his other fist and hit me in the face.

Bye!

“Big,”

Crazy, it hurts like I was hit with a hammer, not a fist.

I felt like my will to fight would disappear due to the intense pain pounding my nose and cheeks, but I had to grit my teeth instead. Because these guys weren’t having a wrestling match, they were trying to kill me. If it collapses like this, it will die.

Using that fear as motivation, I pulled the second guy even harder. Finally, my guy fell on the first guy’s back, and as soon as the two figures overlapped, I used my legs to entangle them.

That’s how I got tangled up with the two people.

The skin of those approaching me had fine checkered patterns engraved on their skin, and there was a soft blue glow on their chests. It’s a color reminiscent of a luxury suit and tie… … .

“Huh, huh-”

They didn’t raise their voices.

No, let alone uttering a voice, we would hit each other so hard that not even our breath could touch our skin. So, on the terrace covered with broken door frames and shards of glass, only the sound of my own breathing echoed.

If someone saw this scene, it would probably look like large insects twisting their bodies and biting each other.

But now, it didn’t matter at all who saw it and how.

“Lee, run xepal,”

I just concentrated on pressing my stomach with my knees, wrapping my thighs around my waist, pushing my forehead, rolling up my arms, and reaching out to tighten my hair.

And finally.

I put my forearm firmly under one’s neck,

“Keuuut!”

Crackling-

I broke it with all my might.

Inyoung, whose neck was broken, fell limp, feeling as if she was breaking metal, not bone.

That strange sensation gave me goosebumps starting from my fingertips. But he shook off his anger at a single curse and grabbed the remaining guy.

It twisted its body and took a prone position, like a fish making its last resistance.

“Oh yeah. *Ugh* Leaving it behind is also good, *sigh*.”

I gasped and crushed his back, and violently grabbed his smooth bald head.

And then, he hit it towards the floor.

“Hmph!”

‘Boom, boom!’ A sound like a large hammer hitting the wall rang out over and over again. In-young fluttered for a while and only stopped resisting when her forehead and nose were crushed and flattened.

“Huh, huh-”

Ah, it’s Saksin.

My whole body throbs, as if I’ve been hit by a horse.

I leaned back against the glass door and took a moment to catch my breath. As I raise my blood energy and take a look around my body, the pain seems to subside.

Now that I think about it, I made quite a fuss, but the surroundings are still quiet. The massive presence of the monster named Chief Heo cannot be heard.

It’s strange, but it’s not a bad thing. Let’s move quickly.

The second floor, like the third floor, had a hallway curved in the shape of a ‘7’ and had a total of 12 rooms.

A spacious room that looks like a classroom, an office filled with gray partitions and computer desks, a living room with luxurious sofas and tables, a golf practice room, etc.

I can’t even guess what this place is doing.

Aside from the black figures I met on the terrace, I felt no signs of popularity at all. So, just as I was about to let my guard down, I heard a ‘woo-woo-ung’ sound from somewhere.

“……2”

Is it a smartphone vibrating sound?

No, it’s too loud to be a vibrating sound. It feels like something very heavy is making noise.

I stood quietly and concentrated, then walked following the sound.

The place where the vibrating sound was heard was the shower room. To be precise, a changing room next to the shower room.

“••••••what?”

In the dressing room, cabinets with carved wooden patterns were lined up.

Strangely, most of the cabinets were wide open, and only two, number 1 and number 2, were closed.

And the vibration sound that led me came from cabinet number 1.

Guuuuung-

As I took a step closer to the cabinet, the sound grew louder.

My sensitive senses sensed that the sound was not getting louder because the distance was decreasing, but that the sound was actually getting louder… … .

“… … “I’m really going to turn around.”

After lightly moistening my dry lips, I grabbed the doorknob of cabinet number 1. The vibration got louder, and I hurriedly opened the door.

What caught my eye like that were completely unexpected items.

Luxurious leather clothes, armor and accessories full of scratches, a thick ring, a black cloak, a maroon necklace, and a belt and gloves with scale patterns.

And the long sword, Hrunting, is leaning against the wall and crying.

Aside from being happy, I sighed because these items were so unexpected.

… … I don’t know what kind of guy’s dream this is, but it’s a world I can’t figure out.
