My Villains Episode 065

18. Erinar Radhakaline (1)

“Lord of the Underground, here comes a challenger!”

Rumbling.

The stone room made a loud noise and began to shake. No, not only the stone chamber, but the huge cavity of the crypt began to vibrate as if an earthquake had occurred.

“What is this-”

While Luke was staggering to keep his balance, I quickly launched myself at Ellen.

“Ugh, damn it! “Hurry and kill that guy!”

Damn it!

As soon as the guy finished yelling, a long crack appeared in the ceiling of the stone room. The circular staircase shook uneasily, and the hill supporting the stone chamber began to tilt.

Boom, boom!

A huge piece of stone was torn from the ceiling and stuck on the floor.

Dullahan quickly wrapped Luke’s body, and the rest of the skeleton soldiers staggered and attacked me.

Googoo googung.

The floor was choppy, but I maintained my balance with animal-like agility.

I was able to shake off most of the skeleton soldiers, but the guy with the purple trident and the guy with the maroon one-handed sword near Ellen blocked my path until the end.

“Ugh,”

“I tried to forcefully dodge the trident aimed at my solar plexus and fell to the floor. The blade aiming for that gap was thrust towards his neck. I instinctively held out my left hand.

Phew.

“Tsk!”

The hand, which had already been split, was pierced again by the maroon blade and blood spurted out.

Gulp.

At that time, the maroon blade made a strange sound. And then – it started sucking up blood like a sponge!

The image of the knife he is holding comes into view again. It must be my first time seeing it in person, but it looks so familiar-

“Hrunting?”

This is ‘Hrunting’, one of the blood knight’s unique weapons!

When I remembered Hrunting’s fixation option, I was shocked and pulled my hand away, but this damn knife didn’t come off as if it were glued on.

“Ugh!”

When the skeleton soldier holding Hrunting swung the federal flag, I kicked the shield and rolled to the side.

However, the Hrunting that had pierced my hand did not come off as if it had been glued together, and I felt pain as if my grip would be torn apart at any moment. I swallowed my scream and shook my hand away, and boom!

Fortunately, the skeleton soldier’s wrist was separated first.

“Ugh,”

I gritted my teeth, lifted the hand bones hanging from the handle, and grabbed the Hrunting.

Ugh! Rough sword name (劍鳴).

A goosebump-inducing sense of unity travels up your spine and hits your brain.

‘The skeleton soldier’s equipment can never be recovered?’ Such questions did not even cross my mind. I just screamed as I felt the power building up throughout my body.

“Kwaaah!”

At the same time, he swung Hrunting,

Gagagagak!

As if cutting a pipe with a high-speed cutter, sparks began to fly out in huge amounts.

At the same time, Hrunting, emitting a brilliant red light, cut diagonally into the unique armor, ‘Mirror’. My grip was numb as if it would tear apart, but I gritted my teeth and twisted my waist to finish the sword strike.

“Kwaap!”

Wow!

In the end, Hrunting tore the skeleton soldier’s upper body in two.

Even though his companion was torn in two, the one holding the unique trident ‘Ecstatic Death’ was balancing with the tip of the spear resting on the ground. And he took advantage of the momentary weakening of the vibrations to unleash a spear strike.

Kagak.

But now that the level of weapons was equal, he was no match for me. I blocked the spear strike with Hrunting and at the same time held the spear pole with my left hand, intertwining the blade between the spear blades.

That’s it, hot!

Next, he pulled the spear pole with his left hand and turned his body, quickly pulled out the blade that was stuck on the spear blade, and struck the golden helmet with the forte (blade closer to the guard side).

Crack!

Immense resilience – The ‘Emperor’s Bounty’ set boasted a hardness that was incomparable to the ‘Mirror’ that was cut down just before. Even though I attacked with all my might, there was not a single scratch on the helmet.

Tongue.

Instead, the skeleton soldier who wore it could not withstand the impact, and his head, with a broken neck bone, rolled around on the floor.

“Ugh, shit! dare-”

Luke, seeing that, spat blood mixed in and waved his wand. At the same time, an elongated green figure rushed in at great speed. I instinctively heard Hrunting, but

“Q”

Damn, it was such a sudden attack that I couldn’t stop it.

The green figure latched onto my right shoulder and began to melt my armor, emitting bubbles and smoke.

It’s a similar phenomenon to when Grania was attacked by a black slime… . It was definitely ‘Acid Arrow’, a rank 2 skill in the extinction magic series.

What’s this? I’ve never shot an acid arrow with that character?

With no doubt for a moment, I cut off the straps and rings of the shoulder and vambrace in one go with my Hrunting. The bubbling armor fell off, and I ran towards Ellen again.

“Ugh, hurry and catch him!”

Luke shouted, but the skeleton soldiers seemed to have trouble maintaining their balance.

The skulls emitting blue light attacked with their teeth chattering, but since they had almost no combat power of their own, they were not much of a threat.

Kugugoogung!

I was worried about Dullahan, but as the stone chamber tilted and the crack in the ceiling deepened, it seemed like he had no time to move as he was protecting Luke. Even though he had Hrunting, he didn’t have the confidence to deal with him, but he was lucky.

I was finally able to reach Ellen, who was leaning against the window.

“Ellen!”

“Hold on a little, just wait a little longer!” Ellen had already lost her consciousness. As she quickly picked up his little body, Luke let out a hysterical scream.

“Shoot the arrow! “Kill them both!”

At that command, skeleton soldiers armed with crossbows and longbows fired arrows. However, all attacks made without proper balance missed in vain.

Standing in front of a large arched window. I took a short deep breath. Then, I flew towards the darkness without a single light.

“no-!”

Googoo googung.

Leaving behind a tearing scream and a strong explosion, Ellen and I fell into the abyss.

The structure of the ‘rotting crypt’ is basically a cavity filled with groundwater. Here and there, large and small mounds rise like islands, and a huge hill rises in the center.

No, I don’t think the word hill is very accurate. Since the rock wall and the stone chamber above it are in contact with the ceiling, the expression ‘pillar’ would be more appropriate.

Anyway, three sides of the pillar are made of low sandy beaches, and the other side is made of sheer cliffs.

Ellen and I were falling along that very cliff.

Phew.

The roar and strong wind echoing everywhere is almost deafening. I held Ellen tightly in my arms and wrapped her body around her. She didn’t have time to look around.

There’s no reason to do that anyway. There was no light everywhere, and even if I could see something, there was nothing I could do. I just gritted my teeth and prayed.

Paaang!

“Grrrrrrr-”

Did prayer work? What hit my back wasn’t a rock or a pile of dirt, but cold underground water.

Of course, because I fell from a height of about the 10th floor of an apartment building, the back of my head felt numb and I felt nauseous.

Still, it wasn’t a good situation yet to be wondering where I could even hold on to my sanity.

Kwakwakwakwa!

The groundwater that had built up in the cavity was swirling violently like valley water. The cavity shook and cracked here and there, and the groundwater swirled and began to shrink rapidly. This is because the altar event was triggered.

“Krruuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu-”

I’m out of my mind.

Caught in the vortex, Ellen covers her mouth and nose, dodges pieces of stone falling from the ceiling, and cuts off bugs and zombies that stick to her with a knife… .

I don’t know where it’s going.

I don’t know if Ellen’s heart has stopped or if it is still beating weakly.

slam!

And finally, by luck, we landed on a small sandbank.

“Hey, hehe!”

Ellen was quickly pulled up, coughing and spitting out water.

Only after getting as far away from the violently swirling vortex as possible did I lay him down on a flat surface. Then, he took out a piece of cloth that was stuck in his mouth and put it on his ear.

I’m not breathing. Still, when he touched her chest, his heart was beating slightly.

Uh, what should I do? What should I do?

I searched my memory and recalled the first aid techniques I learned in the military.

Heart massage? No, my heart is beating? Should I do artificial respiration because I drank water?

Yes, I am not confident about heart massage to begin with. They say even experienced paramedics can break bones, but with my current body, I could easily shatter all my ribs.

“Securing the airway, removing foreign substances-”

For some reason, Sergeant Moon’s voice comes to mind. I lifted Ellen’s chin and opened her mouth to check inside her.

•••Ugh, there’s no light so I can’t see anything. I don’t even have a backpack, let alone a torch… .

I reached in with my finger and felt my severed tongue, giving me goosebumps for a moment.

I think I heard that if the tongue is cut off, it curls inward and blocks the throat, but I don’t think that was Ellen’s case.

Next, I pinched my nose and breathed into my mouth. I breathed as hard as I could until his head started pounding, but there was no response.

“Oh, what should I do?”

I mumbled like an idiot and put my hand into my arms.

The breastplate was torn and distorted due to the bloody vanguard attack, but as luck would have it, the glass bottle with the iron rim was intact.

Buuuk.

He unwrapped Ellen’s robe, unfolded it, and tore off his blood-soaked shirt. Then, groping for her in the darkness, he unfastened her belt and rolled up her chemise.

I took a deep breath while feeling the wound. Because there was a little something hot sticking out. All in all, it was an incredibly powerful meditation.

I pushed something in with trembling hands. Words such as hygiene and bacterial infection did not even come to mind.

Then he immediately opened the cap of the glass bottle and sprayed half of it on the wound. Extreme care was taken to ensure that it was evenly distributed over the entire affected area.

Chi profit.

The potion’s unique fishy yet sweet smell spreads, and bubbles bubble up. The affected area seems to be healing.

I don’t know who invented the wound healing potion, but I really want to suck my toes. This is truly a miracle in itself.

This is not the time. I guess I’ll have to give him the rest of the potion… .

I also have injuries in various parts of my body, including my left hand. I wanted to collapse right away, but I managed to gather my will and organize my thoughts.

Breathing, you have to breathe first.

I breathed into my mouth again and worked up the courage to massage my heart.

“Press vertically in the exact center of the chest… .”

Struggling to save life in the dark was not easy. But I repeated CPR without stopping, like someone possessed by something.

“Keheek, keuhuh!”

at las!

While performing artificial respiration, Ellen vomited something. Judging by the taste and smell of the liquid that touched my lips, it did not seem to be blood.

“Huh, huh-”

“Ellen, take a deep breath. depth.”

“Ugh-”

It looks like he hasn’t regained consciousness yet.

Ellen coughed harshly a few times and then took a deep breath. I slowly poured the remaining half of the potion into his mouth.

“Drink, please. “You have to drink it.” But instead of going down Ellen’s throat, her sticky potion first stuck to the wound on her tongue. The tongue, which had been quiet, regenerated and grew larger at will was actually an obstacle to treatment.

Still, I was patient and poured the remaining potion into Ellen. The guy gurgled softly in his throat and swallowed the potion with difficulty.

The potions that had been generously thrown to Grania and Arnal flickered before my eyes.

I really need a wound healing potion and an infrared vision potion right now… .

All I could do now was blame my past self and massage Ellen’s arms and legs. But Ellen’s body grew cold.

“Why, why are you like this?”

I can breathe again and my wounds are almost healed, but why?

“Ellen, come to your senses. Ellen!”

“Ugh-’’

“Ellen!”

The guy barely continued to grunt and breathe. Even cold sweat flows from his water-soaked head. He wished he had at least a dry towel – his brief thoughts were cut off by Ellen’s voice.

“Ah, uh-poi?”

“Huh, Ellen? “Are you awake?”

“Oui, I see Appi-”

“It’s because there is no fire. “I was in a hurry to run away, so I couldn’t take anything except a torch or flint.”

As I was picking up words as if I was making excuses, tears were flowing down in a strange way.

“I treated all the wounds, but my body doesn’t feel warm.”

“cold-”

“I think it’s because the wound was bleeding a lot. How about this… .”

I keep getting choked up and it’s hard to finish my sentence.

My heart feels like it’s going to jump out of my mouth because of the anxiety that’s weighing on my chest. I swallowed back nausea and continued massaging Ellen’s arms and legs. But Ellen’s body continued to cool down.

“Nana-”

“Uh, tell me. “I’m listening.”

“cold. Jug, let’s go-”

“No, I won’t die. “Why are you

I was breathing heavily. Ellen spoke so softly that she couldn’t even be heard.

“Ah, give it to me.”

“uh?”

“It’s so cold, baby.”

I hugged Ellen without saying a word. He completely embraced his small body, as if hiding it from the world.

Amidst the thick scent of blood, the foul smell of potion, the smell of mud, and the fishy smell of water, there was a faint scent of lime. It was the scent coming from Ellen’s hair. I was going to ask you what the secret is… .

“Ellen, Ellen.”

Ellen didn’t say anything.

Unlike my heart, which was gradually beating faster and harder, his beat was gradually fading away.

“Ellen. “Answer me, please.”

Ellen also didn’t say anything.

And finally, my heart stopped.
