My Second Life in Another World

Chapter 396: Stepping Stones

Chapter 396: Stepping Stones

"What the hell do you think you are doing Antinus? Have you forgotten our mission? Why are you fighting against the humans of this world?"

"Mission? Keke! I didn't know we had such things," Antinus scoffed and Lycaon frowned.

"It is our duty to guide these people and stop the Disasters here, and rebuild our civilization here. That is our divine calling!" Lycaon said the main reason that he and Antinus signed the contract with the star stream.

It was to rebuild their destroyed planet Chronos which was destroyed by the disasters before on Earth, they may appear as guides but to them, Earth was just a stepping stone to achieve their own plans, but it looked like things became complicated because of Antinus even then…

"What are they going on about?" Soo-young asked since she couldn't understand what the two were talking about, she was missing a lot of information to draw conclusions and….

"Well, I am quite sorry to hear that your planet was destroyed but…" It was then that Haru intruded in their talk and it of course drew the scornful gaze of the two.

"Shut up! I don't need condolences from a human like you!!" Antinus shouted because…

'The one who destroyed Chronos was a human from Earth after all,' Dok-ja thought as he saw Haru walk towards the two.

"Step back human, I can't guarantee your life if you come closer," Lycaon said since Antinus was not in a great mental state not to mention that his first priority was Dok-ja's safety.

"And what makes you think that I need you to guarantee my life?" Haru asked and Lycaon frowned.

"Dok-ja, have this wolf protect the meteorite, I'll deal with the parasite," Haru said much to the surprise of the people involved.

'Has he finally lost it?' Soo-young thought since Haru just declared that he will fight a guide head-on. Like what was the point of this thing?

[The Constellation 'Secretive Plotter' is smiling at your choice.]

[The Constellation 'Abyssal Black Flame Dragon' is looking forward to the coming fight.]

[The Constellation 'Noble Child of the Sun' is telling you to step back.]

[The Constellation 'Ghost of Tosa' is now interested.]

[The Constellation 'I Am Worth More Than That' is ]

"Ok, Lycaon protect the Meteorite and don't let Antinus go near it," Dok-ja understood the reason Haru made this choice instantly but he still didn't know why Haru would do this.

"As you say," Lycaon just stepped back standing in front of the meteorite and…

"Let's go there as well," Hae-in said while dashing towards the Meteorite.

"I had the same thought," Soo-young said as she was already running towards the same place since Lycaon was protecting the Meteorite, he would also be protecting them from Antinus as well.

"Kyak! Human I am going to rip you apart!" Antinus blasted towards Haru. She hated humans with all her heart and seeing someone as cocky as Haru was making her angry.

But….

"It looks like this will be easier than I thought," Haru easily sidestepped the headlong rush from Antinus with a smile.

"Damn you!!" Antinus got more furious and started to attack him at a faster speed bouncing all over the place as she broke anything that got in her way, even then…

"What am I watching? A matador?" Soo-young said since the fight between Haru and Antinus gave off that vibe, with one attacking madly with all of her strength while the other was dodging her like nothing.

Even right now…

"You'll need to do better than that," Haru said jumping over Antinus as he swung his katana at her neck….

But because of her super speed, he was only able to take one of her legs. And even if the damage to her body was minimal...

"KYAAAAAKK!!!" Antinus was pissed that she had been played to the point that she had to use her special moves, but leaving that aside at this moment her main priority was to deal with Haru.

'I'll deal with that impudent Wolf quickly after I finish this vermin, I will by no means let this world be intact!'

"Master, that human…" Even Lycaon looked at Haru with wide eyes, it wasn't that Haru was using some over-the-top skills that could bring him under questioning from the dokkaebis and not to mention that his illusion was also out of commission, but even then he was facing someone like Antinus like that.

A hero selected among the Insect race from the world of Chronos, she was by no means someone who could be played like this even if she was mad in anger, but that is what made this even worse since they can see that Antinus was attacking Haru with full focus and even then she was unable to land a hit on him.

'How is Haru-ssi matching up with her speed?' Dok-ja thought since he could barely see her movements even with his agility being in the 50s.

[Yu Jung-hyuk: He isn't matching her speed.]

It was then that Dok-ja got a message from Jung-hyuk, but this just confused him even further.

[Kim Dok-ja: Then how can he keep up like that? Not to mention attack her?]

[Yu Jung-hyuk: You should know.]

'Why does he have to be so mysterious all the time? Can't you like give a straight answer?' Dok-ja looked at Jung-hyuk with a side eye but he couldn't ask more questions since that would make it bad, it was quite bad that he can't ask the one person who has an idea about it.

But thankfully Dok-ja didn't have to wait for too long because…

"I have to admit that he has incredible combat ability, he is always able to get out of the way just in time," Lycaon was thoroughly paying attention to the ongoing fight and he had reached a conclusion about how Haru was able to do it.

"It is almost like he knows where she will attack and then he uses an angle from which he can disperse her attack while taking almost no damage, that is how he has been able to keep up with her even with his lower stats," Dok-ja and Soo-young became more shocked as they heard it, because if this was true then.

'Isn't it similar to future sight then...' Dok-ja couldn't help but shudder at the thought, it wasn't like Haru already didn't have enough skills and….

'Fucking hell, he is a broken character!! Who is writing this shit? You definitely suck, Where is the damn balance?!' Soo-young shouted in her head, this didn't make sense since it was unfair for one person to have so many skills and not to mention that all of them were so overpowered.

"But even if he is doing great now, he will still lose," And Lycaon's next words drew all of their attention.

"Why do you think that?" Dok-ja asked since it didn't look that way right now, but that was the point…

"That human may have been able to keep up with Antinus till now, but the thing is she hasn't even used her full speed yet, and with the limited amount of time she has…" And as soon as Lycaon explained that.

[Tier 5 Monarch-level Insect, Parasite Antinus, has used Accelerating Wings lv. 8.]

[Tier 5 Monarch-level Insect, Parasite Antinus, has used Praying Mantis Break lv. 8.]

"Ah, Shit!" Haru barely dodged the first attack as Antinus's current speed was three times faster than before.

This is why before he had the move he was struck by Antinus's scythe-like claws that sent him flying into the nearby building.

"…Dok-ja that wolf can stop her right?" Soo-young asked while Dok-ja looked at her with a blank face.

"Why are you wearing that bag already?" Dok-ja pointed and…

"Oh, it is nothing. So, answer Now." Soo-young smiled innocently but Dok-ja didn't bother at this point because…

"Antinus, Are you really not going to stop this tomfoolery?" Lycaon stepped forward to face Antinus at this moment.

"The Antinus you knew died on Chronos; I will make the people who destroyed my home shed tears of blood!!" Antinus attacked Lycaon at full force right out of the gate while he also took her seriously using his [Way of the Wind] at full power.

"…They are really fast," Soo-young couldn't even see most of the fight and could only see the damage it did to the surrounding.

And even currently the two looked evenly matched which is why it was so much more impressive to her that Haru was able to keep up with someone like that.

And on that note…

"Are you not worried about him?"
