Chapter 10: Kidnapping (4)

He could not spend the night like this. The ghouls waved their hands in an attempt to knock over his torch. It also looked like they were going to attack him at any moment.

He prepared to leave, because the ghouls had destroyed the back of the hut, which was where the light from the torch could not reach. He tucked the torch under his arm and used his cloak to protect himself from the rain.

But he could see no breach.

Thats when it happened.

BOOM!!

There was a shockwave over the hills to the northwest. Soon, a pillar of white light shot into the sky. The ghouls were dismayed to see this.

The ghouls did not attack him because of the torch, but followed him without stopping. They ran so fast that he could not evade forever.

As he climbed to the top of the hill, he looked up at the epicenter of the light.

What the hell?

There was a huge crater. And in the center was a huge meteorite half buried.

!

Inside the meteorite was a glowing sword. The pillar of light surrounding the sword reached into the sky.

A sword?

He ran as fast as he could towards the center of the crater.

The ghouls were as close to him as before, but they didnt try to catch him. They seemed afraid of the light around his sword.

Before he knew it, the dozens of ghouls had swelled to hundreds in the chaos. They moved somewhat cautiously into the crater. The ghouls slowly surrounded him, like a predator preparing to pounce on its prey.

He felt like his heart was going to burst.

As he approached the sword, the pillar of light trembled even more.

He had no choice but to wield the sword. He gulped.

He reached into the pillar of light to grab the sword. Then he pulled it upward.

It did not have the weight of a metal sword. It had the shape of a long, thin sword. He could hold it with one hand, although it looked like he needed both.

The sword was made of light. He could not believe it.

The pillar of light stretching up to the sky gradually began to disappear.

The ghouls around him roared loudly.

As the pillar of light disappeared, the encirclement of ghouls grew tighter. He had no time to be captivated by the mystical appearance of the sword. He stood on guard. Soon he would have to face the ghouls.

A ghoul that was drooling attacked him.

He reflexively swung his sword.

The ghoul was cut vertically in two. Its split body crashed to the ground.

What is this?

He felt no resistance as he slashed the ghoul. It looked as if he had cut the air, but even the bones were split in half. It was an incredible cut.

Another ghoul rushed at him. He swung his sword in a great semicircle.

A shockwave of white light was created along the trajectory of his sword. The shockwave not only wiped out the ghoul that had attacked him, but also everyone in its path.

What the hell? How did I do this?

He heard a ghoul approaching from behind.

He immediately turned around. As he swung his sword, another shockwave swept through everything in its path. It was an amazing power, but it quickly drained his energy. Posted only on NovelUtopia

The frequency with which the ghouls rushed at him increased. They almost always attacked his back, probably because they wanted to avoid the light of the sword.

Damn!

His efforts were not enough to stop so many ghouls.

There was another problem.

His vision blurred as he fought back.

It seemed that the sword consumed his mental strength.

He staggered after slashing at a ghoul that rushed at him with its mouth open.

Damn!

Three ghouls attacked him at once, as if to take advantage of the opportunity. He stepped back to avoid one. He immediately cut off the heads of the other two.

Then, when he regained his position, he thrust the sword into the back of the remaining ghoul. Rotten blood gushed from the ghouls back.

Even a small movement consumed too much energy. His head was cloudy, as if he was losing blood. His mental strength was so depleted that he felt nauseous. He shook his head to stay focused.

The light emitting from the sword gradually faded. It seemed to react to his mental strength. He had wielded the sword for less than five minutes, but he felt he would faint soon.

Hold on a little longer. Just a little longer

As he was beside himself, a ghoul slashed him in the side with its nails.

He felt such terrible pain that he gritted his teeth.

He thrust the sword into the mouth of the ghoul that had attacked him.

He clutched his side with his left hand. Blood flowed like water.

He was about to lose consciousness due to the bleeding.

Thats when it happened.

Boom!

There was an explosion in the corner of the crater. His ears were deafened. All the ghouls attention was drawn to the explosion.

The place where the explosion had occurred was engulfed in flames. All around were the remains of the ghouls that had been torn apart by the explosion.

And among the flames was a silhouette.

He wondered if he was seeing a ghost.

He focused his eyes again. It was not a ghost. The silhouette became clearer as the fire disappeared. The silhouette belonged to a person.

When the black smoke dissipated, the figure of the woman appeared.

She wore a large pointed hat over her dark red hair that reached her waist. She was a tall woman in a black dress that showed one of her thighs.

A small ball of fire hovered over the womans hand.

The woman tossed the ball aside as if it were nothing.

A whirlpool of fire formed where the ball had fallen.

The woman moved her hand slowly.

At that moment, the huge whirlpool swept through the crater, sweeping away the ghouls that looked like a swarm of ants. The situation looked like chaos.

The scene was so overwhelming that it was like watching a natural disaster. He could not believe that such transcendental power could come from one person.

He didnt know how it happened, but he had been saved.

He sat down on the ground. The sword he held in his hand gradually lost its light until it disappeared. He could no longer remain conscious.

He fainted. His head hit the ground.
