2nd Round Villain

chapter 41



41 – – 500, wounded young wolf – 7

eyes are felt

No matter how long I wait, the enemy doesn’t appear.

Aru can’t feel it, but I can feel it because I have an abnormally developed sense of humor.

I ran into a pleasant predicament. An unknown riddle given to me by the other person makes me immerse myself in deep thought.

I can’t see the enemy, but I can feel the hot gaze, but it’s not like I’m doing something threatening.

how to solve this problem Simple. It is to empathize with the invisible enemy who is still watching Aru and me.

‘I’ is the observer.

After making a fuss at the auction house, he chased the man who fled with King Rang to Masurim.

The fugitive stays in one place as if he does not have the strength to move the prison of King Rang. He hurriedly ran away without receiving the key to open the cage from the auctioneer, and there seems to be no way to get Rang Wang out.

There is a lot of time. Unless they use teleport-like magic, they won’t be able to get out of this place where all kinds of bushes and messy trees are located with a big cage.

So, I am taking my time and watching.

It seems that it is not only ‘me’ that has been pursued.

The demons who followed from the auction house arrive one after another and are attacking the demonic fluid and Langwang. They seem to have the same purpose as me, but I can’t see them as being on the same side.

They, too, are competitors of ‘me’, targets for elimination that I must fight, kill, and cover up.

… for a moment.

What is the purpose of ‘I’? You need to know that.

I don’t know who ‘me’ is. But there is something you need to find out. That is the purpose of ‘I’.

The first thing that came to mind was, of course, Lang Wang. Rangwang, whose bloodline alone is of great value, is the source that summoned the demons to this forest.

However, does a ‘strong man’ like ‘me’ who can tell just by feeling the deception really wants King Lang?

You can want to, but something more fundamental than that… .

money.

The crystallization of greed, one of the seven great evils. As long as they were born as demons made of evil, everyone has no choice but to yearn for it. Unless you have acquired overwhelming wealth or been liberated.

At the auction house, the fluid demons spent a whopping 500,000 gold to purchase Aru. That’s a lot of money. A huge amount of money that ordinary demons would not dare to dare even think of even if they worked their whole lives.

He even threw that kind of money on the floor. As if it were a godfather. There must have been more money on hand.

There is a golden El Dorado that far exceeds the original ransom price of King Lang, such as 100,000 gold, among the demons. When I thought about it, the purpose of ‘I’ was determined.

Yes, money after all. A clever and beautiful substance that stimulates the demons’ innate desire for possessiveness.

It wouldn’t be strange if my eyes rolled right away, but ‘I’ had to stay calm.

Even if you just look at the image of the corpse demons at the auction house, it’s definitely not a level that can be underestimated. It wasn’t enough to calmly provoke the Western Dukes, the most powerful family in the demon world, and even escaped too easily.

It should not be underestimated as a fluid. ‘I’ kept my composure, crouched down and started observing.

No property was visible from the outside. It is highly probable that he has hidden his wealth somewhere. To find out, the best course of action is to catch and interrogate that corpse demon.

There were several people who came to target the demons and Lang Wang. It would be a big deal if they killed the body demons. He had to be alive to get his property, even through torture.

Even if they lose, the only thing that raises the spirit demons’ vigilance is a handshake. ‘I’ killed them silently and hid them.

The spirit demons are repeating meaningless things. Occasionally throw meat to the king of wolves in the cage and make him do something. Like push-ups, for example. or run in place.

If he disobeyed, he would hit him on the head with a three-handed stick. The Wolf King resisted his orders at first, but is showing signs of compliance.

I wonder if it’s meaningful to just keep watching. You seem to have seen everything, but how about having a full-fledged meal soon?

Just imagining it makes sweet saliva form in your mouth. How much money is there, not only money, but that Lang Wang will also come with it, so it’s just fun.

… … So far, my thoughts transferred to the watcher who is watching me.

More than this is unknown. I’m not even a god, and what can I find out in a situation where information is so limited?

“Kong, what are you doing?”

Aru asks a question with the meat in his mouth. After the fight, Aru is treating me a little businesslike.

The orders given are carried out swiftly and quickly. The caged guy can only be given simple training – sit, stand, lie down, and roll.

“I am training telekinesis.”

Ugh-.

“The power of telekinesis? kong kong. what is that?”

“You don’t have to know Aru.”

“Kyung… .”

Hearing my brief reply, Aru was a little discouraged. Alright, now you’re kind of attached to me.

The full moon will rise tonight. The stage I prepared is also perfect for tonight. However, if there is one problem.

That someone watching us might not come in tonight. Then it’s a joke, and I will be torn beyond recognition by Aru, who is blessed by the full moon.

That doesn’t work. I’ve already set up all the prizes. What would I be if I just walked away without accepting it?

“Aru, I will give you an order.”

“Kong? what command?”

“When I get close to us, grab my collar with your left hand. And hit me hard with my right hand.”

“Kong? What is it?”

“Don’t give me an acknowledgment. Hit me with the intent to really kill me. That’s right, Aru said he wanted to kill me, right? I can kill you now.”

“Keong kong! What a trick! Cunning demons!”

“The move is correct, but Aru has nothing to lose, right? Stop worrying. There will be no such thing as retaliation. Aru just needs to do his best to hit me.”

Whispering with a soft smile, Aru made a half-doubtful expression.

I reassured him and continued talking.

“If you don’t hit me, I will hit Aru. why? Because this is an order. Okay, Aru?”

Well, peace of mind is subjective.

“Ki-ing… I, a bad demon… .”

“good. Then hit me now.”

“Kyung… .”

Lean your face against the iron bars. At the same time, I wink at Aru, who is still hesitating.

Aru glanced at the magic wand, which was far enough out of my hand, and then nodded once. Trust me, Aruya.

Aru’s small left hand slowly climbs onto my collar. I waved my arms as if resisting, and grabbed Aru’s wrists with both hands, but didn’t exert any force. To those who don’t know, it will look like you’re just struggling.

“Hit it.”

“… Kung!”

Knock-!

ouch!

Aru’s right fist, which was thrown straight, landed on my cheek. A dizzying feeling of dizziness spreads throughout the body.

After that, it was a pretty realistic performance. Yes, let’s do it like this, Aruya. No more, no less, just this much… .

I’m sorry-!

“Ouch! Ah, Aru!”

“Keep… ! Hey, I’ll hit you hard… ! don’t hit me… !”

“Oh no! You’re doing great! Very tangible!”

Damn, if I say anything here, Aru will be down and he won’t be able to act realistically.

Knock-!

… But, did I tell Aru that this is acting? I don’t remember how

It’s true that you should hit me like you’re going to kill me, but it doesn’t really mean killing me… .

Furbuck-! Buzz-!

Damn, I didn’t tell you.

“Ah! Wow!”

“Kyung… Are you hitting well? confused… .”

“You’re doing great! So don’t hesitate! Stopping here makes it even weirder!”

I know I have no choice but to endure it. I hate this.

Bubber Bubbubuck-!

Aru’s fists fly like a hail of rain and hit my whole body. I grab onto the bars and struggle as if I’m trying to get out somehow, or I struggle with my arms trying to grab a magic wand that’s far away. Of course, it’s all just acting.

Bubber Bubbubuck-!

It’s a strange shape.

Aru hitting with all his might, me enduring it far away and imitating desperate resistance with lies, and even the unknown person watching us like that.

The three of them are filming an absurd three-way battle that makes even the comedian laugh.

Observer, conflict.

The guy who knows where the money you’re after is dying.

Think slow, the deadline is tonight.

*****

“Ha ha, ha, ha… .”

“Err… are you okay… ?”

“You look fine, it’s hard to breathe.”

“Ki-ing… .”

“I’m just kidding, stay still from now on.”

It’s true that it’s hard to breathe. I’m just exhaling exaggeratedly. To draw out the bystanders who will be watching and weighing their angles.

After being beaten by Aru for a long time, it was only after I was in the super-death state that I signed Aru to stop. Aru immediately let me go, and I stumbled and collapsed, leaning against the bars as if I had no strength to hold the magic wand.

And then it goes on and on. Exhaling heavily, as if not even thinking about wiping his bloody face, he stayed still.

Like a demon who will soon die.

“Ha, ha, ha… .”

Anyway, the patience of the demons watching over me is really good. still haven’t come out

The sun that brightly illuminates the forest has long since fallen, and after a while, the full moon hidden by the clouds will rise brilliantly in the night sky. If the demons don’t appear by then… .

“… Krrr.”

I will be killed by the wolf girl who hides her claws and waits for an opportunity.

Aru is pretending to be worried about me, but the truth is completely different. When the full moon rises, the moment I can get past the other demons and get out of the demon forest without me, Aru will change and break the bar.

then you will kill me I’ll kill all the beasts around here too.

Although the king of wolves is great, the king of mere beasts can never be compared to the king of five. But how could the king of wolves in the legend fight with Horus on equal footing?

That’s because the King of Wolves’ combat power increases thousands of times as if he were awakened under a full moon. Like a werewolf, a monster version of a werewolf beast. Although many people don’t know.

Of course, Aru in his previous life had risen to the level of transcendence, where the concept of increase was meaningless. To the extent that even in normal times, King Oh doesn’t fall for him at all. It’s nothing else, he assassinated the emperor of the empire, so what do I need to say.

Anyway, for that reason, Aru is waiting. When you kill me and you’re free

It is true that I was trained to some extent due to my carrot and stick strategy, but the time was so short. You can’t change a life 180 degrees in a few days. I’ve never wished for anything like that in the first place.

“hahahaha… .”

The build-up was laid. What are you stocking up on? They’re just young, weak demons who will soon die.

come out

come out soon

this is how i die

stop burning up I know you’re burning up If you accidentally bite the fish and run away, are you confident you won’t regret it?

wheein-.

The cold and cold wind of the devil world blows. Aru crouched down and nodded as if he had intuition that the full moon would rise sooner or later. I have to think of my lines, but maybe it’s because I’m hit so hard, I don’t even think about it.

The fog is quite hazy. It feels like a ritual to summon the devil. I slowly inhale through my nose and exhale through my mouth, waiting for the soon-to-be prey.

Jiing-.

The rosary of a saintess in her pocket suddenly rings. My pants and lower body trembled. What is this, I have to concentrate, but why are you like this?

“ha… ha… .”

There was a moment of distraction, but I can’t afford to pay attention to things like the vibrating rosary now. Because life depends on the alert.

Damn, show up soon. I feel like I’m going to turn around because I’m slowly getting hot inside. The recovery potion in the sack is meant to be eaten after the show.

Like that, the time for my lips to dry up must have passed by about ten seconds.

Jerk-.

The sound of heavy footsteps was heard. It was not a confident step, but an urgent thumping step.

Make sure to read from noble mtl dot com

Jerk-.

Through the thick fog, the human figure of a male demon was revealed. He was approaching me with straight steps.

“Kyong-k-k-k-k-k-k-k! Knock-knock-knock!”

As soon as he senses the presence, Aru, who has been still, starts barking like crazy. I guess it was exactly what I vaguely expected.

Make sure to read from noble mtl dot com

Jerk-.

“Krrr… ! Kkong kuk kuk kuk!”

A seagull-shaped mustache appears cutting through the white seaweed. As it got closer and bigger, it hung on In-young’s face.

I didn’t raise my head for fear of being seen, but I only slightly raised my eyes to check In-young’s face. It’s the demon who came up next to me at the auction house and talked to me. There is a long invisible spear tied to its back.

Was it interest? The culprit who slaughtered Aru’s family, sold Aru to the auction house, and followed me after I ran away after winning Aru’s bid.

“Keong kong! growl! Knock-knock!”

At the appearance of a villain with a grudge, Aru’s eyes widen and she cries. It doesn’t look like he can’t turn his head, but I think he’s probably shedding hot bloody tears. What is the cry of an animal that has lost its reason?

Wheein-.

The wind that had been blowing hard from before is getting stronger and stronger. The clouds in the sky are gradually being pushed aside. The round full moon that was covered is trying to show off its majesty to the world by removing obstacles.

The stage is complete. This is because all the main actors are on stage.

“Kick-kick… .”

“… Are you laughing now?”

“Don’t talk long with cool people. My mouth hurts.”

“Hmm, even when I saw it at the auction house, I thought it was very unusual, but even in this situation, it’s a playful horse. That’s great.”

No drum sounds. Of course. Because I am not the one to fight on this stage.

My heart feels like it’s about to explode. Holding on to that beating heart, I continue acting. Towards the highlight of this show.

“Kyong kuk kuk kuk! growl! Krrr!”

“Aw, that’s noisy. Isn’t he tired?”

“Why did you get hit by that werewolf earlier? I thought you had established the order.”

“Did you count the wolf strength? Be careful not to get caught in your wrist. If you do, you will become like me.”

“Anyway, if you hadn’t been beaten by that wolf, you would have been beaten by me. It’s just that it’s ruined a little bit earlier.”

“Kick-kick… .”

The mustache demon spoke in a hard voice while standing in front of me. Did he realize through a short conversation that my breathing wasn’t going to stop right away? He was somewhat calm.

“I want to ask you something, what is your identity? I heard how you caught that goddamn wolf.”

“Nothing. They only tried to catch the king of wolves and sell them at the auction house, and then take them back and sell them back to the auction house when they were in someone’s possession. My job is just a hunter.”

“Hunter… mustache… window… Aha, now I see that you are ‘Swarin’s Spearman’? I haven’t seen it, so I didn’t recognize it.”

“Swalin’s Spearman? I don’t know that name.”

“I don’t know. But I know.”

Swalin’s Spearman. I’ve never seen him in person, but he’s a famous demon realm hunter who will later make a name for himself. He was famous as a miser who caught all kinds of rare species and sold them at the auction house.

Although he seems to be just a seasoned and ordinary hunter now.

“Would you like to have my property?”

“If you tell me quickly, I will spare your life.”

Fool, do you believe that?

“Kick-kick, f*ck you. Because I will never say anything.”

“Hmm, I didn’t expect you to tell me anyway.”

Sputtering out low words, the mustachioed demon, or ‘Swarin’s Spearman’, hung on his back and pulled the spear out of the holder.

I still sit with my back leaning against the iron grate, breathing heavily.

Behind me, Aru.

“Kyong kuk kuk kuk! Aww! Kreurukkeongkeong!! I will kill you!! I will kill you!!”

He is screaming desperately and spewing out his murderous intent. It was the appearance of a perfect beast, unable to find anything of reason.

“First, let’s cut off one leg.”

Swalin’s spearman raised his spear high. Then, without hesitation, he thrust it into my legs, which were lying neatly on the ground.

Exactly, I was trying to stab him.

Ugh-!

The moment the sharp, shiny silver spear blade rose, I wiggled my fingers and activated the telekinesis that I had accumulated through hard training. The drop of magical power becomes an intangible control force and changes the target of the spear.

The new target pointed by the tip of the spear is Aru in the cage.

Swalin’s spearman could not respond to the change of the moment. This is because the whole body is faithfully carrying out the commands given by the brain.

Shuaaah-!

“Kong-k-k-k-k-k-k-k-k-k! I will kill you!!!”

The window moves forward without hesitation. Aru is still barking at his throat. Swalin’s spearman belatedly tried to retrieve the spear, but it was too late.

“Oh, no… ! The Wolf King should be saved and sold again, but why did you stab it wrong… !”

Calculating the profit and loss in the middle, Swalin’s spearman gave a new command to his hand, reducing the spear’s power. However, the spear still surged sharply. A sharp spear moved over my head as I sat down.

Han, this is it.

I quickly strained my legs and raised my body like a spring bouncing. The spear that was about to pass over my head was pointed at my elevated ship before I knew it.

It was as if I was sacrificing myself to save Aru, who was in danger.

I was stabbed by a spear.

Woowook-!

“aaagh!”

Red bloody firecrackers explode dazzlingly.

My eyes widen at the burning pain that pierces my stomach.

The spearman’s seasoned eyes follow suit.

Aru’s eyes, which were watching all this from behind, also open up.

“Uh, huh? kong… ?”

“you… ? what have you done now… ?”

I fell to the ground with a spear stuck in my stomach. I don’t even have the energy to stand up anymore. I desperately want to eat the recovery potion I brought back from the sack, but now is the time to wait.

because.

“Keep… ? young demons… ? what did you do now… ?”

Wheein-.

The long-awaited full moon is rising.

Come on, Aruya. The next is up to you.

The show starts now.

*****

Young demons, it’s strange.

Look at me and ask me to hit myself.

so i hit it hard

I got emotional when I hit him, so I hit him as hard as I could, pretending to be afraid of punishment.

I felt relieved.

And then, the guy showed up.

An unforgettable bad guy. man to tear it apart b*tch to kill

My head was covered with red stuff.

I couldn’t think of anything.

I couldn’t hear anything.

The younger demons and the enemy demons talked. I just barked.

I want to tear off this barbed wire right now and bite his neck, but I can’t and it’s frustrating.

however.

however.

The enemy demon threw a stick that smelled like iron at me.

It was a stick with a pointed tip.

I had a gut feeling of death.

Hot water flowed from my eyes.

Like this, I wanted to die.

There are still many things I want to do.

Sad, unfair, angry, and that’s it.

however.

The young demon threw herself.

A young demon sacrificed herself for me.

A cunning, evil, bad demon.

I threw myself to block the iron rod flying at me.

blood spattered

It was the blood of a young demon.

I don’t understand.

Young demons are bad demons.

Young demons are demons who beat me as they please.

The young demon… i love me

… .

Maybe that’s why?

Because you love me, will you die instead?

like mom?

like dad?

Like uncles, aunts, aunts and grandmothers?

no.

no.

I don’t want to see you die again.

Because of me, someone throws their lives.

I don’t want to see you again.

body is weird arms are hot

I think I can do anything.

Strange. I looked up and saw something blue and round.

full moon.

full moon… !

full moon… … !!

*****

“Krrr… .”

Clumsy-.

The teeth, which had changed from human teeth to wolf teeth, bent the iron bars so easily.

The wolf-man, who was finally freed from the cramped cage in which he had been confined up until now, looked at me with wavering blue eyes.

The menacing eyes were moved to the target that should be annihilated in the current situation.

“Crrr… .”

Long-grown fingernails and toenails, wolf teeth that are distinctly different from those of humans. A glossy mane with a voluminous tail and thick, long hair that covered the waist and back.

And, if she had the appearance of a human girl before, now her body has grown to look like an adult woman. The hot blood that stretched out into the White Sea of Saji made the protruding blood vessels stand out even more.

The blue aura of the full moon illuminates the beast.

The beast instantly closed the distance with the riding demon.

Hard and sharp claws imbued with enormous power lodged in the demon’s abdomen.

Behind that series of processes, a young demon was giggling while coughing up blood without anyone knowing.
