My Villains Episode 026

7. Sewerage (4)

Ellen looked at the spotted eggs and said, her face turning white.

“•••Poi, you need to run away.”

“let’s go.”

I didn’t do anything foolish and waste time by asking why.

The look on his face fully explained the serious situation, and I had an idea.

We hurried back the way we came. Anyway, the water was splashing up to my ankles, so I ran as fast as I could to avoid praying.

Did it run like that for about a minute?

with a splash!

The sound of water coming from behind.

It wasn’t that far away, and the feeling of volume and mass cutting through the water was conveyed through the heavy sound.

“Ellen, faster!”

“Hauk, hak-”

Ellen was running out of breath… but she was so exhausted that she couldn’t pick up any speed.

Seungsu Kim, you stupid bastard!

Even though he was thinking about retreat, he actually didn’t care about Ellen’s physical strength! I should have expected this situation!

I wanted to at least pick up his crossbow, but since I was also holding a shield and a lantern, it wasn’t possible.

with a splash! with a splash!

The sound of water was approaching rapidly.

I couldn’t confirm its identity – it’s an animal that lays eggs the size of a human fist and lives in places where there is both water and soil. No, I don’t think there are that many monsters.

Actually, there is someone who can guess. This guy appears not from the underpass, but from the crypt!

As the monster’s roar hit the back of my head, I hurriedly turned the light of the lantern behind me.

A large tail that splashes and pushes water at both ends of the waterway, a back plate with lumpy scales, and the vertically slit eyes of a predator.

At first glance, it was a huge crocodile that looked to be well over 6 meters long.

Although it is called an animal on Earth, its size and danger are enough to call it a monster.

Even after hearing its roar, Ellen was barely able to speed up. This was because the water that had reached his ankles continued to bite his feet.

“•••Phew.”

I roughly threw the lantern on the floor and pulled out the pulse.

When I stopped, Ellen walked three or four more steps and then stopped.

“Why stop! “Go quickly!”

Even though he was out of breath, he shouted at me.

“hey! *Sigh* What, what, *sigh* That’s it!”

“go! “I will run away on my own!”

“Whoop, I hate it!”

Damn that guy’s stubbornness!

But there was no time to argue with him.

Well done

A lot of foul-smelling water splashed on my face, as if I had been sprayed with a bowl.

The crocodile, which had been swimming along the waterway at breakneck speed, was right in front of us and lunging at us with its mouth wide open.

The gaping maw was so large that it seemed like it could chew half of my body in one bite.

“o that”

Without even having time to feel fear, I moved reflexively.

He gritted his teeth and plunged the knife into the creature’s dark maw.

But just before the tip of the knife touched the roof of his mouth.

Huh.

Holy crap, are you avoiding this?

Even as he was throwing his body away, he twisted his waist in an instant to avoid my knife. His reaction was not appropriate for his size.

Immediately after that, the diagonally opened maw closed with violent force.

Kwasik!

“Keueuuuu-”

By barely bending my back and holding out my shield, I was able to avoid getting chewed up.

Because the shield was stuck inside its mouth, the roof of its mouth stopped right in front of my neck.

For a moment, it seemed like the world stopped.

The terrible breath that many living beings must have smelled just before death, and the serrated teeth hanging from their necks like the grim reaper’s scythe.

Reptilian eyes that emit an eerie light beyond the darkness.

It seemed as if they were smiling at me in the form of death.

“Off,”

In a world that has slowed down, I hit the side of the guy’s head with Pulsion.

The superhuman strength that rose from the brink of death left deep and large scars on him.

Kwasik!

I hoped that the crocodile would back away in surprise, but the giant crocodile’s fist-sized eyes only blazed with fierce anger.

A whirlwind of anger twisted my arms. I gritted my teeth and held on for a while, but

In an instant, the world turned upside down. I fell into the canal, leaving only a single sound.

The crocodile began its deadly spin using its body weight of over 1 ton.

Whoop, splash!

“Kkeuk, kkeuk,”

The rotation continued. The crocodile bit my shield and ran two, three laps… He twisted his body like crazy and threw me on the floor.

Pow!

Ugh, I don’t even know where I hit it. Her shoulders felt hot.

It would have been better if the shield had shattered without being able to overcome the guy’s grip.

Or, if the strap of the shield attached to the shoulder was a little weak and broke.

I should have been able to put down my shield and escape.

“Okay, huh… …

However, the shield was stronger than expected, and with my body attached to it, I was caught in the crocodile’s rotation and constantly rotated.

My head was pounding, my shoulders were throbbing because I was being thrown around so recklessly, and I was suffocating because of the sewage that flowed into my nose and mouth.

In the meantime, I managed to swing Pulsion. However, by simply swinging the arm without maintaining balance, it was not possible to inflict any significant damage on the giant crocodile.

Bah!

Ugh, for a moment my vision became blurry.

Beyond my blurred vision, I saw Ellen trembling.

I told that idiot to run away, so why are you doing that? … .

Just as I was thinking about this, Ellen screamed furiously.

“Poi, close your eyes!”

“Huh-what.”

Before I could respond to the vague shout, a familiar sound struck my ears.

Boom!

As soon as I instinctively closed my eyes, a voice in the back of my head said ‘Clink!’ A noise rang out.

Wow!

What is it?

The giant crocodile twisted its body and threw me to one side, twisting its body like crazy in the waterway.

Ellen let out a scream as she saw me lying on the floor in a daze.

“wake up! “You have to kill me now!”

Along with that, a spicy scent passed my nose.

It was a strong, almost painful smell, like red pepper powder or something similar.

Oops, now is not the time to smell!

I immediately threw off my shield and quickly stood up with my throbbing body.

And focus-

Naturally, my body was chafed and broken here and there and bleeding. The blood mixed in with the water gathered in response to my call and I immediately kicked the ground.

Wow.

The giant crocodile was twisting its body and letting out a roar that was unbecoming of its size. Every time it wriggled, a strong splash of dirty water came out.

I threw myself at the guy. It’s like a goalkeeper throwing his body towards the ball.

Just like that, I aimed for the momentary gap and fired a pulse at its stomach.

Phew.

Its belly skin was extremely thick and strong.

However, Pearl Shen, who glowed with a strange blood color, was wielded by strength that transcended human strength.

Squeaky.

The belly skin was torn into pieces like a thousand pieces.

I was stuck in the waterway and twisted my body with all my might to release the pulse.

A long red crack was drawn on the white belly skin, and soon the red line burst open and vomited out its contents.

Patter!

Leaving behind that eerie sound, I quickly jumped out of the canal.

“trunnion!”

“It hurts, man!”

Ellen suddenly ran up to me and grabbed my shoulder.

Ugh, I didn’t really feel the weight, but it was hard to hold on because my whole body was throbbing.

However, the thought was short-lived as the giant crocodile was still splashing behind him.

“Ugh, Ellen, you have to avoid it first… …

It must have smelled bad because it had been rolling around in a dirty waterway, but it didn’t seem like it had any intention of falling.

I had no choice but to pick up Ellen by the waist and put her down only when we were about twenty meters away from the crocodile.

Wow… … .

In the distance, a huge crocodile, sitting on its own intestines and writhing around, died.

Only then did I slump down, leaning against the wall. Butt was wet… … Ha, it doesn’t matter. Anyway, my whole body was soaked in feces because of that damn crocodile.

“Huh, huh… . Wow, I really- I really almost died.”

“Hey, what was that? chili powder?”

I asked while taking a breath, but Ellen just stood there without answering.

Ugh, I threw away the lantern and there’s nothing to see. But at first glance, it seemed as if his two main prey were trembling.

“Hey, you two-bodied bird, you’re a talent.”

“•••Uh, huh?”

“You, you really-”

Ellen looked like she was crying at first glance.

Lee exasperated his voice.

“Really, do you really want to go after it?”

“What is it, suddenly?” Before I could finish my sentence, he hit my shin with the tip of his toe. I kicked it loudly.

“Ahh! hey!”

Crazy, I got hit with a stick, it hurt so bad!

The car I was trying to get angry at.

“You, I am warning you,”

Ellen said something in a tearful voice. Her pronunciation was so muffled that it was difficult to understand what she meant.

“Just one more time – if you say things like go first, run away, run away… .”

The guy sniffed loudly, was silent for a moment, then took a deep breath and continued speaking.

“Really, I’m going to kill you. okay?”

“Oh, hey. “When did I do that again?”

“You did that last time too, you idiot!”

Sigh!

Siang, I got hit again.

I should have bought shin guards!

After a while, the landing goes up to the second basement level.

I sat down on the stone steps and put a bandage on the back of my head, which was bleeding. There is a passive skill called ‘flowing blood’, so just holding down the pressure will stop the bleeding.

At that time, Ellen’s hand, which was loosening my dented shoulder pad (W man), brushed against my swollen shoulder.

“Ugh- hey, be careful! “It looks like it’s cracked!” Ellen frowns and scolds me at my words.

“You can’t kill someone with just a little graze. “You’re distracted.”

I wanted to say something back, but I held back.

It was sad to see his eyelids bulging like caterpillars.

“Ugh.”

As I was sighing like that, the guy who was holding onto the collar of his leather tunic and hesitating for a moment suddenly got irritated.

“I-san, this, this, all, try undoing the buttons.”

“Oh, please let me go. “Can’t you see I have no hands?”

“… Hey, I’m so annoyed… .”

While grumbling slightly, he unbuttoned the button with careful hands, opened the front flap, and poured water to wash the wound.

“Ugh, chill.”

I suddenly asked a question as I raised my arm, following Ellen’s hand as she tied the bandage.

“Hey, but there’s the glass bottle you shot earlier.”

“•••Uh, what?”

The guy who was wrapping the bandage must have been thinking about something else, and when I spoke to him, he was startled and stuttered.

“What is it, why is it like that?”

“uh? “No, no.”

“Are you okay?”

“Uh, it’s okay, ugh, don’t turn your head. “The bandages are tangled.”

I said no, but I felt a strong tremor from the man’s hand grazing my collarbone.

When I glanced sideways, I saw that the guy’s neck was red, as if he had a fever.

Are you very tired? By any chance, does it hurt somewhere?

Well, it’s already been ten hours since I came down to the sewer, so there’s no way I’m not tired. And if you roll around in such a dirty environment, no matter how healthy you are, you will get sick.

I need to quickly take care of things and go up.

“So, the one you shot earlier.”

What Ellen shot with the crossbow was kind of… Should it be called tear spray ((崔浪藥))? It was a glass bottle containing something like that.

“It was some kind of tear gas, right? “What is it made of?”

“•••Phew, hmm. I picked some moss grass behind the inn. I mixed that with ground tarazine that I bought at a street vendor. “There wasn’t enough quantity, so I mixed in some fine sand.”

Oh, I know ‘Tara Jean’ too. It’s a type of spice, but if you compare it to something on Earth, you can think of it as pitch black peperoncino.

“Hey, when did you make something like that again?”

“•••When you were hanging out with that old maid, you were bored so you made this and that. why.”

“Ah, hey! It hurts. Please be gentle-”

“Don’t you need to tie it up properly? “Just stay still.”

But, wait a minute. What did he say? Am I hanging out with an old maid? … I don’t remember ever having such luck with Poynix’s body.

“for a moment. “Are you talking about Grania?”

“uh. “Is that correct?”

The way he calmly beats up others is really… should I say it’s like a guy.

Ha, Grania is at most in her mid-twenties, an old maid? So what happens to me, a 30-year-old single man? I’m so angry for no reason.

That’s it, I said to Ellen with a little surprise.

“Huh, after wandering around like that to meditate, you made some really amazing preparations?”

Suddenly, a crossbow leaning against a stone railing caught my eye.

Wait, no way… .

“Hey, then are you… “Did you buy that to shoot tear gas?”

Ellen frowned and answered my question as if it was obvious.

“of course. I’m a wizard. Would you have spent six silver coins just to shoot a piece of rock?”

I don’t know what magic has to do with tear gas.

“•••really? “You thought about it in advance?” “okay. “To get used to it, I adjusted the weight of the bottle to the iron bullet.”

Oh boy. Does it look a little different?

I thought you were just some idiot who couldn’t use magic, but you were thoroughly prepared, right?

“But why didn’t you tell me?”

“•••Because I didn’t know if it would be useful or not. “There’s no point in shooting something like this at zombies or bugs.”

“aha. Still, I should have told you this. “It’s very useful.”

The corner of his mouth twitched slightly at my bruises.

“•••Useful?”

“Of course, you say that? “If it weren’t for that, I would be dead by now.”

The guy kept his mouth shut, but a smile that he couldn’t hide spread across his lips.

Aww, cute guy.

“If anything like this happens again, let me know in advance. I also need to know so I can work hand in hand with you. “Have you made anything else?”

“Hmm. “I also made a few poison bottles and firebombs.”

“•••what’?”

Maybe it was his mood, but the guy’s arrogance seemed to be getting higher and higher. It was quite funny to see his shoulders raised so high, but I couldn’t hold back my curiosity and asked.

“How did you make something like that?”

“It’s not that difficult. To make the poison bottle, I dried and ground amanita mushrooms and lily of the valley and added the essence of lily of the valley. It’s a simple but useful paralyzing poison. As for Molotov, Sister Olga said she was going to your general store and asked you to buy some Flameflower oil. But since oil alone does not have enough viscosity, it will act as a glue… …

When I saw Ellen giving such a simple explanation, I couldn’t help but laugh. She seemed to have forgotten her fatigue and the trembling of her hands had subsided.

That triumphant appearance is quite funny, but – yeah. This looks much better than tears and runny nose.
