Revenge of the Iron-Blooded Sword Hound - Chapter 217

Episode 217 My neck becomes your scabbard (2)

[…… Huh?]

Kamyu put on a dazed expression for a moment.

An iron skewer extended from her hand and pierced Bikir’s belly.

[It’s midnight. Little girl.]

An eerie voice came out from the cracks in the fog that were torn like mouths.

The eighth demon Seere.

It started forcibly manipulating Kamyu’s body around midnight.

[Oh, no! Aren’t……!?]

Kamyu urgently exclaimed.

But the heaviest thing in this world is the eyelids.

Kamyu’s head snapped in an instant like a marionette with a thread cut off. And soon, a completely different expression appeared on his face.

A bewitching smile in slightly relaxed eyes.

The demon king Seere, who rules over the herds of corpses and bones, was there.

“……!”

Bikir also immediately noticed Kamu’s change.

how can i forget Those sticky eyes that tied countless colleagues to death.

[Hohoho- Are you that big-timer? I heard a lot about it from my ‘roommate’.]

Seere looked at Bikir in front of her and said.

Unlike other poets who usually refer to the original owner of the body as the ‘host’, Seere was referring to Kamu’s consciousness as a roommate.

‘……Is it not a ruler, but a housemate? It’s a strange relationship.’

Bikir backed away, plugging the hole in his belly with his hand.

Certainly, the corpse queen in front of me is different from the others.

Half of Kamu’s consciousness and half of Seere’s consciousness. That’s why it seems to be a structure in which each other lives by dividing the day in half under mutual agreement.

It seemed that this was the reason why I didn’t feel the devil’s energy so strongly when I first met Camus.

Bikir regenerated the wound on his stomach using the power of the bog salamander.

Tsutsutsutsu……

The speed of recovery is slower than before. It’s not that the regenerative power has decreased, it’s because the magic that has been hit has become more powerful.

After the controller of the body was changed from Kamyu to Seere, the mana of darkness floating in the air began to become much thicker.

‘Is this 100% of him?’

Bikir swallowed and raised his head.

In front of him, Seere, who had prayed for Kamyu’s body, was walking lightly.

[I almost missed the job at the end because of one insignificant feeling. This is why all human beings are thrown away. They don’t know it’s a cause.]

Demons generally don’t have the concept of gender, but they still do have a vague distinction between male and female bodies.

Seeere, to put it bluntly, belonged to the female body, so her voice, gestures, facial expressions, and everything had a fatal luster.

And when it was manifested in Camu’s body, the wavelength was truly enormous.

But fortunately, it was fortunate that there were no enchanting males around Andromalius’ barrier.

Vikir removed Seere’s enthralling aura with her strong mental strength.

Then he asked in a calm tone.

“Since when did you dwell in that body?”

[well? It seems like it’s been quite a while. Because it was around the time this girl was learning the ‘art of complete resuscitation’…]

At those words, Bikir’s eyebrows moved.

Baekjeon old man, who had passed through the era of destruction, ate not only knife-bap but also mado-bap.

That’s why he had a vague idea of what the ‘sake of complete resuscitation’ that Seere was talking about was.

Seere said in a coquettish voice.

[Don’t you know because I’m a swordsman? ‘Perfect Resurrection’ is a magic that reduces the caster’s lifespan and completely revives the target. In a word, it’s like sharing your life.]

However, to cast this magic, you must have the remains of the target.

The magic is complete only when a certain amount of the target’s body, such as bones, blood, nails, and hair, exists.

Bikir asked briefly.

“However, that extramarital magic is considered taboo even among black magicians, right? Compared to the slim chance of success, the rebound penalty in case of failure is too great.”

The ‘rebound penalty’ refers to the burden on the blood vessels of the whole body, including the brain, as mana explosively flows back and returns when magic fails in the middle.

At those words, Seere laughed out loud.

[Ho-ho-ho! that’s right! It’s like admitting your own stupidity at the point of getting involved in an affair. But what am I grateful for? I was able to get this body because this stupid girl did that.]

“…?”

Bikir frowned. Seere continued with a smile on his face.

[This child got his hands on black magic that was banned even in his own family, and the mana ran out.]

“…!”

Mana runaway is the most burdensome of the rebound penalties and is the phenomenon that all mana users fear the most.

To put it simply, the mana flowing through the blood vessels explodes and spurts out, leaving the body in a mess. This risk is incomparable to things like cerebral infarction and cerebral hemorrhage.

Most of them die instantly on the spot, but there is a rare chance that they become insane and runaway or become vegetative.

In the meantime, the accumulated mana was discharged all at once through the pores of the body, causing an explosion of a terrifying scale.

Camus seemed to have found himself in just such a situation.

[He was a fearless kid who only believed in his talent and will. Hohoho- Is there a man you really want to meet again? Where is the fool who risked his life just for that reason?]

Seere looked down at Kamyu’s body and laughed.

[If I had a face like this and a body like this, I would never have lived like that. I would have gotten stronger by consuming the blood of young males comfortably. Ah~ Life is very difficult.]

Camus tried black magic, which was taboo even in the Morgue family, the head family of magicians, as it was too dangerous.

There is only one reason. One day, if he finds Bikir’s remains, he intends to share his lifespan with him and bring him back to life.

However, there is a reason for all the taboo magic.

Outer magic is strong and alluring.

The geniuses who were said to be nanginda, who could have left their names in human history if they were alive, also fell into its charms but could not get out of it and were ruined.

The stronger and smarter it is, the more attractive it is to fall in, and it makes everyone think that ‘only I am different’.

And the ending is the same for everyone.

pain. or death.

Due to the runaway mana, blood vessels throughout the body would be cut off.

Camu experienced a runaway of mana at the last moment right before completing the magic, and was able to stand on the line of death.

In a situation where half of the brain has died. She was half-dead and half-living, so she could neither die nor live.

And a being appeared in front of Camus, who had become a living corpse.

[Little girl, why don’t you sign a contract with me?]

The fall of a person who had lofty ideals. A fallen existence drawing the most dramatic trajectory from top to bottom.

At the bottom of the biggest drop, the one lurking with an open mouth was the gloomy demon Seere.

[Well, if he was an ordinary wizard, he would have died a hundred times more. The talent of this girl who did not die in such a situation and survived even with a vegetative body is the real exhaust. Ho ho ho- I’m good at looking at my body?]

Seere said in a very satisfied tone, as if she really liked the body she occupied.

[Perhaps… If I hadn’t had such longing and desperateness for men, I would have been a little less impatient, and if I had matured and became stronger after a little more time like that, I might have been able to complete the ‘sake of complete resuscitation’?]

” …”

[Hohoho- Well, it’s all wrong now.]

Seere finished speaking and looked up at Vikir.

Kurrureuk!

The black aura boils like asphalt.

Only now, the smell of the devil began to flow thickly at 100% concentration.

Pupperpuppung!

Black flames and iron skewers flew in and aimed at Bikir.

Incomparably stronger than before, the magic power squeezed and tightened the entire field inside the barrier.

“…”

Bikir stepped back and raised the Black Bow Anubis.

The hunter’s focus was firmly fixed on the target even in these extreme circumstances.

Daang! earth! Puff!

Holes were pierced in the hem of the flames, and iron skewers were hit by arrows and bounced off with sparks.

Seere laughed.

[This is indeed the hunter who killed Andromalius and Dantalian. But it’s impossible to catch me that much… Huh?]

But the devil’s laughter didn’t last long.

Squeak-

An unpleasant sensation that touches the face.

Seere frowned and waved her hand.

[…What is this?]

Something like a thin thread was pressing down on my face, so I couldn’t move forward.

It was thin enough not to be easily observed with the naked eye, but quite tough.

like a wire.

Black-

Such threads were drawn countless times in the air.

[Nuclear Nuclear Nuclear-]

Bastard madam. The guy had set a spider web trap around Seere’s body.

[what? Are you a spider living in polar hell? Why is that here?]

Seere tried to cut the thread with force as if it was annoying.

Tae Ae Aeng – Gigi Geek –

Surprisingly, it didn’t break even with the mighty strength of a devil.

Of course, it wasn’t Seeere’s style of asserting physical strength, but it was quite unexpected.

[How dare this worm……!?]

Seere spewed out flames and tried to burn the web.

However, a seasoned demon hunter like Vikir could not miss the moment when the enemy’s attention was distracted for a moment.

Pupper puffer puck!

Arrows flew in succession and pierced Seere’s limbs. It wasn’t a critical area, but it was all parts that could affect movement.

[Kyaaaaagh!]

The dog of death drew its teeth in front of Seere who screamed.

…Hook!

The aura of the blade that burns like the sun.

Bikir was emitting a long dark red aura blade.

At that moment, Seere hurriedly shouted.

[If you kill me, this girl will die too!]

The human mind can play with anything that is easy to break. From the devil’s point of view, yes.

This is especially true for those who are prone to deception like Seere.

……but.

“no.”

Bikir’s sword was resolute without a flinch.

“Only you will die.”
