Helmut: The Forsaken Child - Chapter 252

Helmut

Episode 252

The monster was running. Breaking and crushing the twigs and blades of grass that stand in my way.

It felt like I was running across the ground at the speed of a flying bird.

The body, covered with black demonic energy like smoke, was as red as freshly formed skin, but there were no wounds.

A little while ago, Perm’s arrow filled with divine power melted the guy’s epidermis and burned the inside of the skin.

The pain that feels like being hit by a heated iron! Magi protected the man’s heart and prevented fatal injuries, but it could not prevent the pain.

“Krrr.”

The monster’s eyes rolled back.

The fierceness and anger amplified the monster’s magical energy.

If I don’t kill all the humans here and chew up their bones and flesh and swallow them, my anger won’t go away.

That fierce hostility stimulated the sprouts of darkness.

The blooming sprout of darkness was powerful, and monsters that were not mortally wounded could endure the short and long pain.

Although the arrow’s wound was not engraved, extreme resentment was deeply engraved on the monster.

I will kill them all!

However, the number of humans was large and there were quite a few formidable ones.

No matter how much the monster was blooming with the buds of darkness, it was impossible to deal with that many humans with a body that had been hit by Fama’s arrows.

You can’t just leave like this.

A black-haired human boy flashes through my mind.

swine!

It was a one-on-one duel. The winner of that fight was a monster. As time goes by, that will happen.

But are you letting other humans attack you?

I guess it’s good. He will definitely pay the price!

A few words of conversation from a distance.

The bastard foolishly revealed his weakness, and the monster did not miss their conversation or movements even though its entire body was burned by Perma’s arrows.

Charlotte.

The monster instinctively realized that it was the name of a human woman.

The moment the rain of arrows stopped, the monster realized that the time had come.

The monster, which emitted magical energy and obscured its vision, immediately left its seat and set out to find the owner of its name.

In the direction pointed out by another human!

How can a human woman fend off a monster’s attack?

The one who arrived late would end up crying, clutching the woman’s cut in half body.

Passssss. The monster spewed out magical energy and ran.

The scenery before my eyes changed in an instant. Even a four-legged animal could not run faster than the monster.

The grass turned black and dead in every spot I passed. It climbed the trees, skipped over the soldiers, and rushed toward the target beyond.

The monster was discovered not long after. A human girl standing with a worried expression surrounded by soldiers.

I immediately recognized that it was ‘Charlotte’. The only woman there. Doesn’t he look exactly like that guy?

The monster’s pupils were completely torn apart. It’s a satisfied look.

Someone spotted the monster and shouted.

“It’s a monster!”

“Here comes the monster!”

“Protect the Grand Duchess!”

A monster appears here! Was the main force with the Black Wing Knight Commander completely annihilated?

Fear and despair appeared on everyone’s faces. But all the soldiers here are elite.

There was no one trying to get rid of them. A sneer crossed the monster’s lips as it saw the mayflies raising their weapons.

puck! Soldiers fell like sheets of paper at the light swing of the monster’s arm.

The weapon was not even lodged in the body. Every time the guy swung his arm, one person’s head was crushed and their torso was pierced straight through.

Blood and flesh scattered. It was a crucible of fear.

The monster roared in front of Charlotte.

“Kaaaaaaaa!”

Insignificant and weak humans. The same goes for Rinosa’s noble lineage.

When he was human, no matter how strong he was, he could not be free from the chains of social status.

But now the monster was able to turn humans who were far above it into livestock. Livestock being slaughtered!

Everyone will meet the same fate.

But surprisingly, the young human woman in front of me was staring at the monster with her eyes clearly open.

The monster, annoyed by the human woman’s attitude, licked the corner of its mouth as if threatening.

Charlotte couldn’t remain calm.

‘I can’t believe you came all the way here.’

She felt nervous as if the blood in her whole body was freezing.

If Helmut and his teacher Alonso had fallen, Charlotte would not have been able to escape death here unless a miracle occurred.

The monster was vicious and strong. I was afraid. How can I not be afraid?

But what was even more scary was that I could not do anything and would tremble and die.

Charlotte never raised a sword for that. That was the pride of Rinosa. It fights like it is in Rinosa’s blood.

Charlotte quietly watched his movements with her sword drawn.

With concentration that doesn’t even miss the shaking of the blades of grass. I know that even if I attack, it is not an opponent that will be eaten.

That’s why I wait. Just like she was used to fighting.

‘counterattack.’

She has already experienced the fastest movements.

I fought Helmut. Even Helmut couldn’t cut her with one sword.

The monster may be stronger than Helmut, but it will not be faster than Helmut.

And the monster moved.

I even briefly tilted my head at Charlotte’s unusual reaction.

We had to kill and take out the monster before the enemy realized its target and tracked it.

The monster’s bloody hand stretched out as quickly as a flash of light.

Kwagak! The sword deflected the monster’s blow. Even though the attack was avoided, a tremendous shock spread through Charlotte’s entire body.

The demonic energy emanating from the guy took my breath away.

Charlotte threw herself away unconsciously.

Quagwang! A hole appeared where she threw herself, as if it had been dug with a shovel.

Charlotte saw the black shadow casting towards me and instinctively raised her sword.

All the vis she had gathered into the sword.

But it was no use.

Kwasik!

The sword in her grasp broke and a huge hand struck her abdomen like a hammer.

Crash! Charlotte fell helplessly and rolled around on the floor. I didn’t feel any pain. The strength drained from my whole body.

“Charlotte!”

Someone shouted her name loudly. It was a familiar voice.

Charlotte looked at him with blurry eyes.

“I… I’m okay…”

She couldn’t finish her sentence and lost consciousness. There was blood on the abdomen.

‘late.’

Helmut stood in front of Charlotte.

The monster chuckles and licks the blood from its hand. As if to say that in the end you lost.

I can feel the faint sound of breathing behind my back. Charlotte is not dead yet. If you act quickly, you may survive.

But there was no way this monster would let that happen.

‘Then I am.’

My heart was hot. A force surged from the center of my heart as if it would explode.

Do your best.

The moment those words struck his mind, Helmut realized that he was not giving his all.

Because there is a seed of darkness in his power. Because he always had to keep the sprouts of darkness in check.

But now, for the first time, it escaped my consciousness. A bolt was loosed inside him.

Bis soared from Helmut’s sword. It was a grayish color that was darker than before.

Bringing out the power of the sprout of darkness was extremely natural. Just like a fish knows how to swim.

Now it is a battle of instincts. Demonstrate Darian’s swordsmanship with all his might.

As soon as his consciousness became paralyzed, Helmut rushed towards the monster.

Boom, boom, boom!

Debris was flying everywhere and dust was flying.

It was no longer a human fight. But it was definitely different than before.

Defeating a demonic spirit is ultimately a stronger demonic energy than that!

The monster’s magic power, weakened by holy magic, no longer surpassed Helmut’s.

When those two go head to head,

boom! There was a tremendous noise and the monster’s body froze in shock.

Through that gap, the sword of someone who came late flew in.

The sword of Black Wing Knight Commander Alonso!

As the sword was aimed precisely at its back, the energy of divine magic spread through the monster’s veins.

“Krrrrr!”

His body had already suffered a blow. The demonic energy encased in iron armor scattered away.

At that very moment, Helmut’s sword, filled with gray light, pierced the monster’s heart.

puck!

Black blood splattered out with a dull noise. The monster’s movement stopped.

Helmut vividly felt what had pierced him.

A blooming sprout of darkness.

Even after being hit by Perm’s arrow, the flower that had bloomed vividly shattered like glass.

Like a swindle flowing from a corpse, black magic energy spread around the area.

Alonso quickly bit himself away from the guy. Helmut also stepped back with his sword down.

dump. The monster, whose heart had been pierced, knelt on the floor.

The strength suddenly drained from the body of the guy who only stood up.

At that moment, the consciousness that had been dominated by the sprout of darkness found its place for just a moment.

The monster’s eyes blinked. My eyes returned to focus. The gaze was focused on Helmut. It was a beautiful look. A first-class platinum-plated mercenary.

“You too in the end…”

The monster sneered and cursed. I felt like I knew what he couldn’t say.

‘You will become like me!’

After a moment, the focus disappeared from the monster’s eyes. The lifeless head fell down.

finished.

The blooming sprout of darkness disappeared and the monster died like a stone statue.

dump. Helmut sat down as if he had collapsed. My palm touched the ground.

As if my senses were paralyzed, I could barely feel the rough texture of the dirt.

My heart is throbbing as if it will explode. I felt dizzy.

As if my own strength wasn’t enough, the price of borrowing the forbidden power of the darkness was coming.

I never once considered that power as my own. Even at the moment when his life was saved thanks to him.

I thought of myself as strong. That was true. Helmut has never encountered such a strong enemy in the human world.

But it met an enemy that turned it into arrogance. Today Helmut realized that he was extremely weak. He is not strong enough yet.

Look at this.

“Are you okay?”

Alonso asked. Helmut barely managed to ask out loud.

“Charlotte… is she alive?”

“While you were fighting with him, the soldiers administered first aid and moved him. Rather, you…”

I felt a shallow sense of relief. I couldn’t hear what Alonso was saying. It looks like he has exhausted his stamina to the bottom.

Consciousness fades. Helmut would normally never lose his mind in front of anyone.

But I couldn’t help it.

Helmut fell to the ground as if he were collapsing.
