The Discarded Warrior Party Came to Me - Chapter 62
62 – Toward the End (3) – Frustration
“To win, I will do everything I can to win.”
As Kang Eun-chan spoke, strong mana energy began to emanate from his body. Unlike the normally blue mana energy, Kang Eun-chan radiated black energy as if using magic.
Seeing that, Saris muttered intrigued.
“Ohhh… It looks like the shape of Magi. But not Maggie. Is the concentration of mana so thick that it seems dark to her eyes?”
However, Kang Eun-chan did not pay attention to his story and ran forward.
-Whoop-!
As Kang Eun-chan swung his sword, an afterimage of mana remained along his sword. The sword glided past Saris’ face as if it were about to touch it.
Saris dodged her sword, leaned forward and charged Eunchan Kang.
“To think he had a hidden ability. It’s fun, more…! Try to draw more power! I mean do the best you can!”
-Chae E Eng-!
-Pabababababat-!
Every time Kang Eun-chan’s sword and Saris’ sword made of magic met each other, a fierce effect like sparks soared.
‘Mi… Being pushed back…?’
Even before, Saris was ahead in strength, but after Kang Eun-chan spewed out a strange mana from his body, he was being pushed behind by Kang Eun-chan in simple strength.
Kang Eun-chan swung her sword at her at random, toward her heart, as if not giving Saris time to think.
-Chehehehe-!
Saris stubbornly blocked her sword. However, she was strange. It was because Kang Eun-chan’s speed was getting faster and faster, rather than slowing down. Even after fighting for such a long time, why are you not tired? Her body was in rags and was torn here and there, and the flowing blood was already so full that it formed puddles. But why, Kang Eun-chan could not understand why he felt like he was getting stronger.
“aaa!”
Kang Eun-chan screams and heads forward. His mana starts to get darker and darker.
-Pavabat-!
This time Kang Eun-chan threw a sword at Saris who stepped back.
“What a fool…!”
-Chang-Gran-!
As soon as the sword fell off the ground, Kang Eun-chan reached for the sword again.
Then, the sword started to shake and settled again in Kang Eun-chan’s hand. Using mana, the sword and Kang Eun-chan’s own hands were connected. When mana and weapons are linked, the weapon can be retrieved simply by pouring a small amount of mana into the connected thread. Of course, it is not a skill that anyone can use because it takes a lot of mental strength and magic to do such fine control during battle. If you accidentally inject mana incorrectly, the sword may fly towards the caster in the direction of the blade, so it can be a deadly weapon to attack yourself. A technique that should not be used if safety is to be considered.
However, Kang Eun-chan did not care about his own safety. He tells him that his number one priority is to kill Saris. Doing damage to Saris. Somehow, it was to give meaningful damage to Saris.
-Whoop-!
Kang Eun-chan, holding a sword in his hand, throws the sword at Saris once again.
-Hwieeeik-!
The sword, encased in dark mana, turned towards Saris again. Saris did not take a hit this time and evaded it. I don’t know if it’s just once, but Kang Eun-chan may continue to do that crazy thing in the future. Since it was judged impossible to block all of those attacks, Saris passively evaded almost the first time. This was good news for Kang Eun-chan. It means Saris is getting a little disadvantaged.
-Poof
When Kang Eun-chan stretched out his hand, the sword that fell behind Saris returned to Kang Eun-chan’s hand.
-Turup
Kang Eun-chan fearlessly snatched the sword that was flying at high speed. Looking at the scene, Saris spoke.
“If you’re not careful, the sword might cut you when it spins. Of course you know, right?”
When Saris spoke, Kang Eun-chan raised her sword instead of her words.
“You mean it doesn’t matter.”
Saris smiled coldly.
***
Heon Na-yoon, who followed Eun-chan Kang. Because Kang Eun-chan ran so fast, Heo Na-yoon, who lacked physical ability, had to run and run for quite a long time to catch up to Kang Eun-chan.
Phoenix talked to her.
[Don’t overdo it. It has already consumed a lot of stamina.]
“Heo-euk… Heo-euk…”
However, Yoon thought Kang Eun-chan would be fighting Saris alone, so he felt impatient. Hun Na-yoon knows. How strong is the demon lord Sarris, and how powerful her subordinates, the demon lords, are.
Those countless people are too much for Kang Eun-chan to deal with alone. So, he has to help himself.
‘I have to go…Quickly.’
She can’t even run to Eun-chan Kang’s place properly, so she might ask what kind of help she is. It is true that she has poor physical abilities. However, she has a superior presence next to her.
Phoenix. Her summoned beast, called Shinsu. To be sure, no one can ignore the phoenix. It is acknowledged by all that he is an apex predator. That’s why, even in the Goddess of Kesley, it was possible to pass the test and enter the interior just by the fact that there was a possibility of being a new user.
Goddess Kesley never shows favor to unworthy people. In other words, the potential value of Phoenix was so outstanding that it was ridiculous.
[Give up. It’s too late. By this time, he would have been dead.]
Heo Na-yoon ran and ran on the path Kang Eun-chan had walked. It was a daunting task for her just to follow Kang Eun-chan, who was born with her warrior body. Even though her breath was choking and her heart was about to burst, she continued her steps.
“You’re still…still alive.”
Heo Na-yoon ignored Phoenix’s words to give up and just ran forward. No, maybe the expression walking rather than running would have been more appropriate now. Her walking speed slowed down as her stamina decreased. But to be precise, she was moving her body as best she could.
-Doouk
-Doouk
Phoenix asked a question to Na-yoon Heo, who was walking sweaty enough to be uncomfortable even for strangers to see.
[Do you really have no intention of giving up? Close your eyes, abandon him, and escape to Goddess Kesley. I will remove the protective shield installed by the demon lord Saris. I can send at least one of you out.]
“I don’t need it.”
[If you head to Goddess Kesley, this time I’ll talk to her directly. I’ll ask you to secure a stable position, and I promise to let you live doing whatever you want. If you care about her family or friends, you can bring them along. I’ll use a little more strength to get them all out.]
“Thank you, but it’s useless. I miss my family, and I miss my friends. Everyone is very precious to me. They are indispensable.”
-Doouk
However, Yun continued her words while sweating.
From noble mtl dot com.
“That’s right…Others are the ones who can’t be without them. You will be sad when they die. Really, it will be sad like the world is crumbling. Because I love the people around me a lot. However, Warrior Kang Eun-chan is different. He is the one who changed my world. And, he’s the first person I fell in love with. If Hero Kang Eun-chan dies… I will follow him too.”
[…]
Phoenix didn’t say anything to Heo Na-yoon anymore. She doesn’t shake her pupils. The words she uttered without hesitation. She was no longer sure how to persuade her.
[You are quite stubborn. I thought she would give up at this point…]
Phoenix muttered, and soon, he created a red light around Nayoon Heon.
“What is this… what is this…?”
-Hwaaak-!
Soon, the light surrounding her turned toward Nayun Heo’s heart. As her light penetrated her heart, however, Yun’s whole body felt a surge of strength. Her weary limbs began to move again, and the frantic sweat stopped.
[This is a contract. It’s a contract that isn’t originally made with humans… But I’m curious about how you and Kang Eun-chan will end up.]
The contract of the divine beast. The meaning of complete obedience to the owner is to link one’s own heart with the owner’s heart. In this way, the owner can use the power of the Shinsoo with a higher assimilation rate. However, since Phoenix is a divine beast, she has to consume a lot of her life force for her contract, and if the owner dies, she receives a huge penalty. That’s why, under tolerable circumstances, he never signs a contract with Shinsu.
However, Phoenix was curious. What will be the end of them, and what will be the rest of Nayun Heon’s life? I was curious. So, she decided to give her a pen to continue this story.
-Sueuk
However, Yun looked at her own arm and she spoke to Phoenix immediately.
“Thank you very much.”
Soon, she ran towards Kang Eun-chan.
Heon Na-yoon, who has been running for a while. Kang Eun-chan’s image gradually began to appear in her eyes.
“Hero…!”
She called Kang Eun-chan with a happy heart that she had finally arrived. But.
-Pooh Woo Woo-!
She Ah, where her eyes were directed, she saw Kang Eun-chan standing there, cold, with knives stuck all over her body.
“Ah…Ah…”
Heon Na-yoon’s world began to turn dark.
