Revenge of the Iron-Blooded Sword Hound - Chapter 121
Episode 121 Hunting for the Second Son (2)
“…Uh. How?”
Set raised his head with his eyes wide open.
Bikir van Baskerville. Hugo’s illegitimate son.
This guy must have been born in an unremarkable lineage.
It was only the position of a common hound that would be thrown away.
However, as soon as he was born, he passed through the cradle of swords in the shortest time ever, received the blessing of the River Styx, and it was also true that cotyledons were exceptionally different, hunting high-ranking monsters such as trolls and Cerberus from a young age.
Two poisonous snakes were put into the cradle to get rid of it early, but it was not successful.
And when he wondered if he was miraculously resurrected from the battlefield where he had been thought dead a while ago, he revealed the terrifying achievement of being an intermediate grader.
At only 17 years of age, he was an intermediate level iron-blooded swordsman, a feat that no one in Baskerville had ever accomplished.
Even the first Osiris, who was rumored to be a genius, was about 30 years old when he reached the intermediate grade.
So even when Bikir showed his strength in the cupboard, Set clicked his tongue inwardly.
‘Tsk tsk, I can’t die in my name unless I lay out all my money like that.’
How to show strength in moderation and hide it in moderation.
That way, you can plan for the future as much as possible while receiving less checks from those around you.
Revealing what they had without hiding it was something that only children who wanted to be praised by adults did.
In that respect, Bikir is nothing more than a child who does not need to be vigilant yet.
At least Set thought so.
……but.
The net worth of Bikir, who had experienced it himself, was much greater than he thought. Even seeing it with the naked eye, I couldn’t believe it.
who would have known To think that at an age when he was not even weak, he would have accomplished a level of inaction that allowed him to cross the realm of the highest.
‘A senior grader… no, is it the highest grade?’
Set’s mouth was half-open at the sight so surreal.
Honestly, if it weren’t for the enemy, I might have thought it was a waste to watch it alone.
On the other hand, against Set with a dazed expression, Bikir unleashed all of his hidden fighting power without filtering.
“I don’t have eyes to see anyway, so it doesn’t matter.”
“…why don’t you have eyes to see?
“It’s snow that will disappear soon.”
Bikir’s next move made even the slightest bit of composure disappear from Set’s expression.
Kwakigigigiggik –
Baskerville’s Type 7. The seventh tooth, which only a householder can learn, flashes sharp, albeit small.
When it is combined with the aura of the highest rank of the graduates, its killing power is such that even the highest level demons are astonished.
“Crazy! How can you eat the 7 meals that only a householder can learn!?”
Seth shouted in surprise, but he couldn’t afford to be surprised.
Bikir didn’t bother to tell me that he knew how to deploy 8 and 9, and even 10.
I just keep wielding my sword in silence so that I can perfectly master the 7th meal and break the wall beyond it.
kang! Pacan! Kaga-ga-gak-
The surrounding stalactites and stalagmites bend like reed stems.
A set driven into a corner without time to take a deep breath.
‘He’s a smart guy. Even the worn-out old knights of the Baskervilles are like this…’
The feeling of dealing with Taesan was similar to when he sparred with one of the seven counts in the past.
Eventually, Set gritted his teeth and swung the Flamberg.
Baskerville’s meat. Six teeth blocked seven teeth.
but.
The teeth drawn from the tip of Bikir’s sword were a little different from the teeth created by Set.
‘A stabbing fang? is not it? What is this?’
By the time you have any questions, it’s already too late.
…Puppuppuppuppup!
Set’s body exploded in all directions.
A lurking ambush exists only to inflict pain on the opponent.
As if tore through his gums and stabbed deep into the roots, it unleashed fatal and irresistible stabs seven times in succession all over Set’s body.
“Quaaaaaaagh!?”
Set stepped back with his tattered body.
I can’t keep my balance because my left arm has already been cut off.
And like a seasoned veteran, Bikir didn’t miss the enemy’s hesitation.
…widely!
Taking one step back takes two steps.
Booung –
Swing once to hit twice.
Fufufufufufufufufufu!
The death teeth of the Baskerville dog ferociously gnawed through Set’s body.
It would be more appropriate to describe it as stabbing with an awl rather than cutting with a knife.
“Ughhh!?”
Set couldn’t resist even as he watched the flesh turn into pieces of meat and fall off.
I can’t come to my senses at all.
Looking at this constant surge of swordsmanship, it was clear that it was not a skill that had been killed once or twice.
‘Nonsense! Yes, even humans are seventeen! If it kills me, how many times have I killed it!?’
Set managed to respond with a sharp knife.
however.
…hook!
Vikir, the dog of death, is gradually closing the distance.
Instantly, the smell that I could feel from Bikir stung Seth’s senses.
It’s a smell that sticks to the soul, not the body, that can’t be erased no matter how much you wash it.
The smell of demons To put it in more detail, the smell of demons when they bleed and groan in pain!
A ray of light shimmered in Seth’s black eyes. It was a frightening light.
‘……Ah, a demon hunter!?’
Yes. In front of my eyes, this young blue human child.
Unbelievably, his soul smelled of the butcher’s veneer, who had killed so many of his own people.
Do dogs recognize dog owners and wag their tails?
Set, too, felt his entire body stiffen.
How many monsters have you killed in the meantime?
Every time Bikir’s momentum spews out, a terrifying landscape of monster corpses forming a mountain range and rivers of blood swirling between them passes in front of Set like a vision.
“This is nonsense! How could such a young guy go through such a human outside demon scene!”
Set opened his mouth wide, but that only increased the volume of the attack from Vikir.
jump!
Bikir’s slash flew.
It penetrated over Set’s gums, knocked out several teeth, and cut through the tongue and uvula on the inside.
Sufficiently –
After cutting Seth’s left cheek, Vikire neatly retrieved the protruding tip of the knife and slammed it once.
“…”
Vikir was about to ask something, but stopped.
I already know his plan and purpose.
If we put together the knowledge before and after the regression, we could guess on our own.
‘He’s a high-ranking being who came from the demon realm. He must have been aiming for the destruction of the human world.’
Before returning, there were ten demon kings who opened the gate to the depths of the demon realm and brought about the age of destruction.
They were called ‘Ten Sangsi’, which meant not only the ten demon kings, but also the ten corpses that had been taken away by them.
Among them, there were those whose identities were revealed and those who were not; in the case of Set Baskerville, who was in front of me, they belonged to those who were not revealed.
‘…Even I didn’t know his identity until the day he was executed.’
Even the heroes who closed the gate and put an end to the era of destruction were unable to find and completely condemn the dead.
but.
It’s different now.
The age of destruction has not yet begun.
The point at which the gate leading to the depths of the demon world was not opened, and the people who opened the gate did not appear at all.
And Bikir had found one of the ten times in advance.
“You die here.”
Bikir declared.
If I can kill him here, the future will change.
Killing one of the tens of thousands will not prevent the era of destruction from coming, but at least it will be able to greatly delay it.
This leaves much more room in Bikir’s plans.
You can afford to prepare for all variables by solidifying your plan.
‘I will never be defeated.’
Having blocked and sealed all errors and variables in advance, Vikir swung his sword with his full strength restored.
His swordsmanship, which had become much nobler than before the return, and his aura, which had become even more powerful, burned red light like the sun at the tip of the sword Baalzebub.
And, of course, it was not possible to receive Bikir’s sword as a set with advanced strength, requiring a good intermediate grade.
“Gaaaaagh!”
Set screamed with his tattered body.
Even if it’s sick, it’s still a standard within the Baskerville family. Since he was born as the second son of Hugo, his talent is not inferior.
However, the problem was that he couldn’t contain the strong qualities inherited from Hugo because he resembled his mother’s weak skeleton and skin.
So, no matter how hard you try, the upper grader body is the limit.
Therefore, even genius blood relatives outside the standard have no choice but to taste this cruel humiliation to those who have achieved outstanding achievements.
Even so, it was not so unfamiliar to Set.
Because Osiris did it before Bikir.
“Kwuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu!”
Black, dead blood flowed from Set’s eyes, nose and mouth.
It’s because the terrible inferiority complex made the whole inside sore.
Seeing this, Bikir hesitated.
‘Is Set’s soul still left?’
It is clear that after Seth died by hanging, his body was taken away by the demons.
However, it was clear that somewhere deep in his soul, Seth’s memories and personality remained.
‘But that’s it and this is this.’
Even if he hesitated for a moment, it was a story of mindset. Hands and knives were still hacking through the set mercilessly.
puck! Fuck! Ppudeuk –
Seven teeth fly and steadily carve Set’s entire body.
at last.
“Aww! You damned Baskerville! How dare you be a mere filthy hound!”
Finally, the thing that was wearing the outer skin of the set, not the set, revealed its true color.
Tsutsutsutsutsutsutsu…
Intangible magic emanated from holes in Set’s body.
Soon, it wriggled like mud applied to a doll and began to take on a gigantic shape.
And Bikir noticed the identity of the demon that was encroaching on Set’s body and soul.
