I Became the Tyrant of a Defense Game - Chapter 555
◈ 555. [Evil Side] Impregnable (4)
Fallen knights appeared one by one in the dark alleyways.
The fallen and maddened knights who completely surrounded the prey swallowed their saliva all at once.
Corrupted King Pendragon muttered in a polluted voice.
《Now, it’s time for the 13th division!》
Then, he drove his greatsword into the chest of the captured human wizard who was tied closest to him.
“Quaaaaagh! Aaaaaagh!”
The sorcerer, alive with a sword stuck in his chest, trembled violently in all directions. But then, the movement gradually stopped.
Another corrupt knight asked with a muffled pronunciation to Pendragon, who was about to cut the body of the dead wizard.
“But the great king… . Didn’t you say you were going to capture them?”
“Huh? oh right It was like that.”
Pendragon nodded as he held up his greatsword with his body covered in blood.
《Let’s just cut this one down and capture the rest.》
《Kihi kihihi! Give me the eyeballs!”
“Then I will give you ears… .”
“Fingers! finger! finger! finger! Fingers!”
“Ugh, you spoiled guys. 13 equal parts, 13 equal parts?]
The blood drained from the faces of the subdued heroes as they listened to the crazy conversation of the monsters who had become inhuman.
It was then.
Poof! Whiririk!
The dagger flew like a thunderbolt and
puppuppuk!
The rest of the chained heroes were pinned down precisely around the necks of the four heroes.
“… sorry. Since we are captured by these people, we cannot expect a peaceful end.”
The one who threw the dagger was the jackal who was moving with the party from the front. The only Jackal not to be overpowered threw his dagger and killed his comrades.
“I’d rather let you go… … Sleep peacefully.”
The four heroes died in agony, but thankfully.
The jackal, who had killed his comrades with his own hands, bit his lip until blood bleed. But there was no time to indulge in emotion.
《Whoa, who is this?》
Pendragon, the king of corruption, raised the bloody greatsword over his shoulder and sighed.
《You’re the Jackal, the self-proclaimed gladiator king who roared around in the Coliseum on the outskirts.》
“… .”
《What do you call yourself now that the Colosseum has been destroyed after pretending to be a dog or a cow?》
“It doesn’t matter what you call it.”
Jackal fixed the dagger in his hand and gripped it.
“Now I am the one I follow… I’m just a subordinate of His Highness, Prince Ash.”
“It is absurd. It’s like a person who once claimed to be king has crawled like a dog under someone’s crotch.”
“Talk about it, monster.”
“It’s the same as being a monster. Come now, stop pretending to be a human being.”
The Fallen King uttered coldly and looked around while clicking his tongue.
“Anyway, I was going to capture them alive, but to kill them all like this. How are you going to take responsibility Jackal?》
“Responsibility?”
Jackal sneered.
“I’m just glad I ruined your plans.”
“No. That’s not it.”
Pendragon chuckled.
“I’m just saying that I need to capture you at least alive.”
“… !”
“Your decision to kill your comrades and set them free was great. But what about this?”
Pendragon’s helmet was tilted to the side.
“Then who will kill you left alone?”
The jackal looked around with alert eyes. Thirteen monsters completely surrounded him.
Jackal knew it well. Against these 13 fallen knights, there is no chance of victory alone.
All of them are specialists in interpersonal warfare and are corrupted demons obsessed with human flesh. On the other hand, he has lost most of his strength during the Gladiator King.
‘I’d rather be captured and used for their own purposes… … !’
Jackal tried to kill himself. He quickly raised the dagger in his right arm.
But he already had no right arm.
“… !”
Denggung-!
Suddenly, the huge scythe of the fallen knight attacked from behind cut off the jackal’s right arm.
The jackal tried to draw another dagger with his left hand, but a chained weight that had already flown tore through his left hand.
Kwajik!
The weight that pierced the jackal’s left hand was driven into the floor, and the jackal, chained in chains, could no longer move.
“Kuh-!”
Jackal desperately tried to find another way to kill himself.
‘Tongue… … !’
He tried to bite his tongue, but tentacles immediately entangled him and strangled the jackal. Jackal choked and gasped.
Pendragon clicked his tongue in front of him.
《That’s true. You know you can’t die by cutting out your tongue. More than anything, you’re pretty strong.
” … !”
The way the jackal tried to use it was to condense magical energy in his tongue and then bite it off and destroy his own brain with the impact.
The tentacles blocked the mouth like a muzzle, making it impossible to use that method.
The jackal, whose entire body was bound by chains and tentacles, floated in the air.
《You have become weak, man who was a gladiator king. So even when you die, you should have worn the crown.”
The sighed Pendragon tilted his head as he looked at the struggling jackal.
“hmm. By the way, it’s a live capture. Anyway, it means that all you have to do is breathe?”
Pendragon lightly raised his greatsword and said-
Fuuk!
It penetrated the jackal’s chest.
“… !”
Blood gushed out like a fountain. The jackal couldn’t even scream and struggled in pain.
“Even if it hurts, be patient. It’s been a while since I’ve had to give my sword a taste of blood.”
Pendragon’s greatsword pulsated like a living creature and began to suck the jackal’s blood. Only then did Pendragon smile in satisfaction.
“Anyway, you are the body that used to be a king. Hold on.”
***
It was only a few hours later that the relief army came from the Crossroads.
District 8. A collapsing chapel.
The most elite heroes of the Crossroads came to the front of the stronghold of the fallen knights. and.
Tak –
Ashe, the flag bearer commander, waving an old, worn-out flag.
He was the guardian of the people.
“… .”
Ash, standing at the entrance of the chapel, did not come inside. Just stand at the entrance and gaze at the scene from a distance.
On the mantle table inside the chapel, only the bones of the corpses of the five heroes of the reconnaissance remained, and the fallen knights were burping while touching their stomachs.
And the jackal, chained and suspended in the air.
With Pendragon’s greatsword stuck in his chest, the skinny, mummy-like jackal was barely breathing.
The tentacles and chains were all removed, as he had already lost all strength to resist.
《Come on, guardian of the public.》
Pendragon, who had been picking his teeth with a toothpick, stood up lightly.
“No way, I didn’t know you would come in person. Nice to meet you.”
“The 13th Knight of Corruption. And the leader, Pendragon, the fallen king.”
Ash recited information about his opponent in a cold voice.
“Originally, they were the legendary kings and knights of the ancient kingdom. However, after leaving for a northern expedition one winter, he was isolated in the snowy mountains and ran out of food.”
Pendragon flinched.
“You guys, the king and the knight, caught and cannibalized one soldier every day. I put it on the corner table of the chapel I used as a lodging. There was no fire to light, so they ate raw food.”
《… .》
“And so, when the winter is over and the blizzard stops… They say that after all the soldiers became your prey, and you became monsters that tasted of human flesh.”
Ash chewed ferociously and spat it out.
“The monster from the terrible legend who is said to have returned to his homeland and ate all of his own people.”
《… haha. He was a very knowledgeable person in history. It’s even a little embarrassing to know us so well.”
Pendragon licked his lips.
“I like smart people. That will be too.”
“… .”
“The meat is so tender and delicious.”
At the silent Ash, Pendragon gestured upward. It was towards the tied up jackal.
“I heard that he cares about his subordinates quite a bit. Come and take me.”
“… .”
Ash counted the number of bones on the table. He groaned and made the sound of his teeth grinding together.
“We have confirmed the deaths of all members of the reconnaissance team.”
Ash said to his subordinates.
“There is no need to fight inside the enemy’s prepared base. retreat.”
“That’s too much to say.”
Pendragon tapped the jackal’s chest with his hand.
“Isn’t this person your subordinate? Are you still alive?”
“I already know Pendragon.”
Ash sighed coldly.
“As far as the jackal dies as soon as the sword is pulled out at the point of being ‘eaten’ by your cannibal sword, Excannibal.”
《… .》
“Don’t do things like taking hostages that don’t suit you. I’m tired because I’ve been taken hostage a lot lately. It’s like this X. ” 《
You have a bad mouth, the guardian of public interest.》
This fuck is a fuck. don’t open your mouth Because I don’t want to smell it.”
Ash did not deal with the pendragon anymore, but faced the tied jackal.
“Jackal.”
“… .”
The jackal, limp and limp in the air, muttered with difficulty.
“sorry… majesty… If I had handled it better… … .”
“You did what you could.”
As if the hostility he was pouring out toward Pendragon was a lie, Ash smiled with an extremely caring and gentle face.
“It was a lot of hard work during that time. I sincerely appreciate your dedication.”
“… .”
“Everblack will remember you forever.”
At those words, the jackal’s eyes regained their dull vitality.
The jackal smiled faintly and whispered one last time.
“… Thank you, Your Highness… … .”
Ash waved his arms. OK.
Taang-!
A gunshot rang out from somewhere, and a flying magic bullet pierced the jackal’s head.
Jackal died laughing.
slap!
Ash just turned around. Then he strode away from the chapel.
《Looks like they’ll let you go!》
shouted Pendragon, and among the fallen knights, those who use magic reached out their hands.
Chow ah!
Various evil spells of blood and bone poison and curses flew toward Ash. However, Ash lightly hit the floor with the flagpole without looking back.
Cheerureuk-!
Then, a wall of magical power rose up from under the flag, and it bloomed in layers like flowers, blocking all the evil magic.
Ash continued to walk, and Ash’s men also glared at the fallen knights fiercely, then retreated after their master.
Pendragon shouted.
《Can’t you see the corpses of these four cruel men!》
“I saw. Engraved enough in my brain.”
“Are you leaving me anyway? You’re not going to avenge yourself! You cowardly bastard, are you still the commander!”
“Because you are the commander.”
Burning his black eyes with hatred, Ash chewed and spat out.
“So I will fight a fight that I can definitely win.”
《… .》
“I won’t deal with you in a battlefield where you have even the slightest advantage. Come to my walls if you want to fight.”
Ash roared like a wild beast with blood vessels standing in the hand holding the flagpole.
“Don’t worry, Fallen King. I promise you.”
《… .》
“I will crush and burn you to the last cell.”
And Ash walked away and disappeared.
Pendragon tried to chase it, but eventually gave up. If it was that man, he must have prepared at least a way to repel the pursuit.
《It’s a king.》
A smile formed on Pendragon’s blood-stained mouth in the helmet.
“I have met countless self-proclaimed kings in this hell, but that guy is real. That guy is truly a prince… … !]
Pendragon opened his helmet wide and started madly mad.
“That guy is my food! I will eat it! Oh no way! Every last bit of flesh, every single nail! entire! All
of it! I’ll eat it up!]
Hiding in a corner, Lowe watched.
Lowe looked at Ash’s back as if he were possessed.
‘That human… … A guardian of public interest.’
The little devil’s fist clenched tightly.
‘I have to deal with… … The strongest enemy… … !’
