Thank you Gary!! <333
[Flowering Night (9)]
The flow must be stopped.
Without stopping the flow, the monsters attacking the hotel could not be defeated.
He was the only one who could stop the flow.
Ha, hahagh, can we take a break?
Lead the way.
Please. How am I supposed to climb the mountain in this condition!
I thought I told you to lead the way.
Eunha didnt change his mind.
He didnt even pretend to listen when Oh Yeon-jung screamed at him in anger as she climbed the mountain path barefoot.
He just pointed the gun at her.
For a moment, Oh Yeon-jungs heart sank.
Do you think Im afraid of dying? Yes, do it! If you can kill me, kill me.
A bullet pierced the back of her hand.
She blinked, looked at the hole in her hand, and screamed.
My, my hand. My hand!
She tried to repair the hole with her other hand.
She froze.
The gun was still pointed at her.
Hey.
The chamber turned.
If you think Im going to kill you nicely, youre sorely mistaken. Unless you want to see that hand gouged out too, move.
It wasnt a child.
It was an emotionless monster dressed as a child.
She gritted her teeth, brushed the blood from her fingertips, and climbed the mountain path.
She used her magic to bind her wounds together, and peered into the darkness through reddened eyes.
Theyre keeping up.
Eunha deployed its mana sensors.
There was a change in the procession of monsters attacking the Dawn Hotel.
The monsters had turned and were following him.
<Fascination> Oh Yeon-jungs gift was excellent at possessing creatures without distinguishing between species.
Even she was bleeding. Even the tiny amount of mana in her blood served to attract monsters.
I should have avoided suffering, but
It was unavoidable.
There was no one else who could drive away the monsters.
The players in the hotel couldnt be trusted. There might be players among them following Lee Byung-in.
Of course, the players hired for the training camp at Doan Elementary School were people untouched by Lee Byung-ins influence.
But players were selfish beings.
He couldnt rashly entrust them with a matter of life and death.
The only trustworthy player was the homeroom teacher, Im Do-hon.
But even Eunha hesitated.
He could leave the monster hunt to Im Dohon and deal with Lee Byung-in, the instigator of this incident.
The hesitation didnt last long.
He could see that Im Dohon wouldnt become cruel at a crucial moment, especially after his time as an elementary school teacher.
Those kids needed someone to protect them too.
Eunha could easily anticipate the situation unfolding in the auditorium.
The players hired by Lee Byung-in would wait for the right moment to kill or capture the players of Lee Jeongs group.
He couldnt just leave the kids in the midst of this conspiracy.
To navigate through this swirling turmoil and stay on the right path, they needed a leader.
There was no one else but Im Dohon.
It was infuriating.
In the end, he had to take care of this.
Eunha squeezed the trigger as the monster leapt from the tree.
Gunfire rang out, bullets piercing the darkness.
Something clattered to the ground, but he didnt have time to look around.
Monsters were beginning to be felt, one by one, as they followed.
It was the same on the mountain.
The monsters heading for the Dawn Hotel had sensed Oh yeon-jung mana and turned around.
Buff.
Ah, yes?
Buff me, stay away from me.
Yes, yes!
Oh Yeon-jung was terrified at the monsters that began to surround them.
What about your comrades who are supposed to be in the mountains?
Th-that They must be somewhere around here.
Eunha clicked his tongue.
He didnt get a chance to talk as he fought off monsters from all directions.
He ran through the trees, changing magazines as he went. He put strength into his feet, jumped onto a tree branch, and leaped into the crowd, wielding his rapier as long as he could extend it.
Chaos.
Celestial Step Technique
Berserk
Madness.
It was all chaos.
I swung my sword at the first sign of movement. If the monsters were too much for him to handle, he would change places, and if that didnt work, he would use restraining magic to close the distance.
He fired his revolver at the monster that had approached after wildly swinging his sword.
Should I try it?
With labored breaths, he glanced at the rapier he had adjusted to arms length.
He vaguely understood the phenomenon in his head.
He had never used it before.
There had been no opportunity to use it.
But in a situation where there was no one around, only monsters lurking, the circumstances were different.
He took a deep breath and infused mana into the blade of his rapier.
A bluish mana emitted light.
As the pupils of the monsters crawling through the darkness contracted in response to the light,
The azure light blended into the darkness.
Darkness emitting light from within.
The monsters witnessed an unreal phenomenon that tampered with the laws of the world.
A sinister and eerie energy emanated from the sword.
Skill No. 001 Undecided.
A magic I had never used before.
A form I was unfamiliar with.
I had to fix it in place.
Muttering random words, he swung the darkness enveloping the hilt.
An image of the Lizard King firing venom flashed through his mind.
Skill No. 001 Undecided
The darkness enveloping the sword erupted radially.
Mana turned into sharp blades, slicing through the monsters in front of him.
The monsters didnt die.
They were dying.
The first monster to show signs of decay was the one that had been attacked first.
Its injured area rotted and it vomited blood while convulsing.
Soon, blood spurted out of the opened wound, and it vomited blood from its entire body.
When the monster had about half of its body left, it could no longer resist the poison and disappeared.
The same signs appeared everywhere.
Some monsters vomited blood and disappeared, while others turned into mana, decaying.
Even if he never reached adulthood, the Lizard King was not the Lizard King for nothing.
The skills the Lizard King left behind were powerful.
It was unfortunate that the skill stones were small, and the only way to use them was to add them to the blade.
Not a skill to be overused.
After seeing the same thing happen to monsters covered in the blood of poisoned monsters, Eunha decided to refrain from using this spell.
It was an attack that could easily damage his allies.
The mana cost was also surprisingly high. The toxicity varied depending on the amount and efficiency.
However, it was a satisfying skill.
It was a skill that could be used against multiple monsters at once.
The infectious nature of the poison was at times no different from a widespread attack.
Before regressing, when his internal mana was comparable to the players average, he couldnt handle long-range magic, annihilation spells, or widespread magic.
There were times when he had to give up on skill stones because his internal mana couldnt handle it.
In that sense, the Lizard Kings magic was meant for him.
Moreover, the Skill Stones that had dissolved into his body werent just toxic, they were also-.
On top!
Oh Yeonjung shouted.
Eunha, who had cleared the area around him, looked up.
Enhancing his vision with mana, he could see the silhouette of a creature nestled among the trees.
A sixth-tier monster, a shadow spider.
Its venom had a property that disrupted internal mana.
But Eunha was calm.
Even when it sprayed venom from its rear end, she watched it calmly.
Celestial Step Technique.
There was no way to dodge the poison that randomly fell from the sky, even with a spell to close the distance.
But why should I avoid it?
Climbing up a wooden pillar in a zigzag pattern, Eunha reversed the shadow spiders venom.
Quick-acting poison.
Even if his internal mana went wild, it wasnt abnormal.
If he hadnt absorbed the magic left by the Lizard King.
The venom of the Lizard King was one of the top-tier venoms.
Unless it was a paralyzing poison, there was no way a similarly toxic shadow spiders venom could be effective.
And without its venom, the Shadow Spider was nothing more than a seventh-ranked Giant Spider.
Charging Strike.
Leaping from the Shadow Spiders head, Eunha stabbed his scarlet rapier in a straight line.
The mana-wrapped blade cut through the thick armor, separating the head from the body.
Come out quickly, all of you.
The massive body toppled the tree with a thud.
Landing on the grass without impact, he raised his rapier, keeping his eyes on the darkness beyond.
There was a rustling sound, and three players stepped out, hands raised.
They were all wearing masks.
Eunha summoned up a bead of mana.
A blue light illuminated the mens appearance.
A navigator and two rangers, perhaps.
The others?
From what he had heard, there were more than twenty mercenaries tasked with driving the monsters from the mountain.
No contact
The man in the lead replied.
In truth, the man saw an opportunity, and he intended to rescue Oh Yeon-jung and kill him.
But then he saw it.
A child of elementary school age wielded a rapier and slaughtered the swarming monsters.
The shadow spiders venom had no effect.
Meanwhile, the mans companion was killed by an unfortunate splash of venom.
His presence had been discovered.
Drop your weapons when I say something nice.
The men obeyed.
Two rangers were no match for a kid whose magic surpassed even the venom of a shadow spider.
That would not change with the addition of their supporter, Oh Yeon-jung.
Where is the drive starting from?
Beyond the mountain valley.
And the control tower?
.
Control tower?
It will be in the valley.
Lead the way.
Eunha pointed at the unarmed men with a chin gesture.
Beyond them, monsters lurked.
It meant they should clear the way unarmed.
It was a suicidal act, but no one could resist his words.
He had said it with a chilling tone, and there was no one who could defy him.
Why. Why are we starting over..?
just walk.
The man led the way, followed by the ranger and navigator.
Eunha only started walking when the men disappeared into the bushes.
He didnt check if Oh Yeon-jung was following. Escaping meant facing a pain worse than death.
In fact, she never had the intention of running away from him. The phrase couldnt escape would be more appropriate.
Her desire to escape had disappeared entirely after witnessing his battle against the monster horde, including the shadow spider.
In that way, the players climbing the mountain path considered him more of a monster than the monsters themselves.
How many did they lure?
The summit was just around the corner.
Up on the rocks, Eunha frowned.
The monsters had sensed his mana and were following him.
It was safe to say that the threat that had terrorized the Dawn Hotel was gone.
Even if it was directed at him.
Eunha downed the potion. The potion restored his health and mana, and he calmly analyzed the situation.
His strength was not enough to defeat all of the monsters.
But he couldnt wait for the clan from Chuncheon City, to arrive.
He couldnt defeat them.
Nor could he wait.
There was only one option left.
What, what?
Eunha looked at Oh Yeon-jung, who was following behind.
Then he turned his eyes to the men in front of him.
As a human being, it wasnt right, but I can do it.
I can.
Eunha looked up at the night sky, thinking of the cruelest way to do it.
.
Two eyes as big as the full moon.
A giant monkey stared down.
Kiki-ki-ki-iiii
6th-ranked Stygian Glum.
In the lightless darkness, the enemy closed its eyes.
The night without anything visible had arrived, and the terror that disgusted humans settled in.
