The Nature of Possession - Chapter 443



443 – EP.17 The person who should be by his side – 2

***

Isis’s belly, exposed by her torn clothes, was melting and flowing out from the black flames.

Even at first glance, it was a serious injury, but Cheonma Namgung Soyu looked back and forth between his fist and his opponent’s stomach with a displeased look.

The attack, which was intended to pierce the stomach, may have been blocked in an unexpected place, but the unpleasant smell of the artificial skin being crushed also played a part.

The gray woman’s eyes shed a soft light.

Since deciding to track down Kang In-ho, Isis has spent a considerable amount of time designing a solid body.

Even if dimensional movement was successful, Isis-NB’s determination would be meaningless if smooth operation was impossible there.

It was nearly impossible to create a body that could theoretically resist all forms of attack.

The bodies that were constructed by gathering materials inside and outside of Aaru had unavoidable defects.

After building one hundred and twenty-one prototypes, Isis decided to change the direction of the design.

Rather than preparing for all forms of attack, it was about preparing for attacks with a fast recovery speed.

It was an idea inspired by Imina, who could regenerate even after being cut, torn, and ripped.

The newly established direction soon led to nanotechnology.

“The attack power is top-ranked, but this is already calculated.”

The circuits that stretched out throughout the nail like blood vessels began to glow and stand out.

A soft silver light and current flowed through the circuit like blood into the ship, and soon the torn artificial skin returned to its original form.

“Are you evaluating me now?”

Namgung Soyu’s eyes sparkled as he evaluated his fist in a voice without any highs or lows.

A body that recovers no matter how many times it is hit. For Cheonma, enemies with outstanding recovery power were extremely annoying.

But even so, there was no hesitation in Cheonma’s actions.

It was just annoying, I didn’t think I could win.

The horse spun around and struck Isis’ temple with its heel.

This was because in a speed battle, it had already been calculated that Isis would not be able to keep up with her movements.

As Isis staggered to the side in shock, Cheonma changed his position again and stabbed her neck with the edge of his hand as if chopping wood.

The impact of being pushed sideways and the sharp pressure of the blade striking from the opposite direction snapped Isis’s neck at a bizarre angle.

A normal enemy would have died here, but Cheonma did not stop.

The belief that her opponent would not end up like this and the anger seething inside her fueled her attacks.

Isis showed no reaction to the cruel gestures that swept through her eyes and bent her head back.

However, with each blow, the circuits spread across her body just glowed.

“!!!”

Cheonma felt a sudden fever and raised his head.

The cannon’s muzzle, aimed at Jeongsu-ri, was charging, emitting an ominous light.

Although he didn’t know what principle the weapon used, Cheonma had an intuition that it was a dangerous object.

Cheonma dodged the object, and immediately a ray of light struck the spot where she had been.

“The leftovers.”

It was an attack that could be read as a number. Cheonma kicked Isis’s stomach with the intention of driving a wedge in.

Isis’s body folded into an ‘ㄱ’ shape and flew backwards, landing on Maria, who was playing with Kang In-ho’s hand.

***

Maria’s right upper body was torn off after being hit directly by a steel shell.

“Maria!”

Kang In-ho, whose face had turned pale, grabbed Maria’s body and soon began to doubt his eyes.

“I am here, saint.”

Her clearly injured body greeted him in good condition.

“Maria… body?”

“Thanks to the blessing of the saint, I have become invulnerable.”

Maria smiled bashfully and reached out to grab Kang In-ho’s hand.

“Stop. No more contact with the Master is permitted.”

Isis’ arm, transformed into a giant gun, aimed at Maria’s head.

“Only you, Saint, can give me instructions.”

Maria’s eyes lit up.

“Do you have the luxury of even looking at one eye?”

The confrontation between Isis and Maria began suddenly. The one who broke the uncomfortable mutual gaze was the horse that came running at full speed.

“hmm?”

The horse once again kicked Isis’s stomach.

To block the powerful kick, Isis grabbed Mary by the back of her neck and brought her in front of her.

Mary, shielded by Isis, flew backwards together with Isis.

“Master, please calm down for a moment.”

“You poor disciple. Your master has been greatly insulted. As a disciple, you dare to stop the fight, even though you cannot help him.”

Kang In-ho tried to stop him, but Cheon-ma had no intention of stopping.

“It’s not really an insult, it’s just true….”

“conflict!”

The Heavenly Horse burst out with a murderous intent. A genuine murderous intent gripped her body, and the magical girl squinted at the tingling sensation running through her entire body.

“Yes, your discipline will begin soon, so please wait with a reflective attitude.”

Cheonma growled at Kang Inho again and again, suppressing his boiling anger.

She stamped her feet hard and headed towards where Isis and Maria had flown, and soon the sound of three women fighting could be heard.

“Haha… This is a mess.”

Kang In-ho scratched the ball.

“I’m worried that the noisy atmosphere might upset your Majesty.”

When Chunhyang approached him and spoke to him, Kang Inho slowly looked at her.

“you….”

“Are you still angry?”

“of course….”

“I couldn’t help it. If I had approached you in my true form, wouldn’t you have been on guard?”

“I am….”

“What is the difference between me and the five women here? Isn’t it just that I met them first?”

Chunhyang pointed at each person with her finger.

“I don’t think I’m behind in anything, except that they met you first.”

Chunhyang took a step closer.

“You lied to me.”

“I just created the situation. I never intended to play with your feelings.”

Chunhyang tried hard to explain to Kang Inho, who was angry, to appease his feelings.

For her, it was only natural that she used the golden eye drops, so she felt frustrated with Kang In-ho.

“Wait a minute.”

It was a magical girl who stopped the conversation that was running parallel.

Chunhyang’s expression, which had been sad as she looked at Kang Inho, quickly cooled.

“Can’t you see we’re having a conversation? Immature people, please leave.”

Chunhyang’s gaze lingered on the magical girl’s chest.

“No, that’s not it! Look over there!”

The magical girl shouted, and Kang In-ho and Chun-hyang’s gaze turned to where the magical girl was pointing.

Something thick and black began to cover Alpha’s body.

Countless teeth and eyes cut through the giant’s corpse.

The giant’s body slowly sank into the swamp that symbolized death, from which there was no escape.

The vitality of the green pasture gradually dries up, and the collapsing ego begins to run wild.

“My lord.”

Chunhyang said as she watched it swell and take shape.

“You’ve got something more dangerous on your tail than I thought.”

She muttered, looking at the place where Yimi had been just a moment ago.
