Solo Swordmaster - Chapter 249
#249. Please know from now on.
“Kheung!”
The giant gave an ugly smile.
The moment he punched the defenseless Maia on the cheek with his fist, the bursting sound and drops of blood gave the giant a low-key pleasure.
But soon the face was horribly contorted.
It wasn’t just seeing Maia’s face, which was clearly unscathed even after being hit by her own fist.
Even the rupture sound of flesh bursting.
Drops of blood splattered in all directions.
It was because he realized only belatedly that it came from his own fist.
“Kheuuuuuong!”
Puck Puck! Pooh!
As if unable to believe this reality, the giant struck Maia repeatedly several times.
But nothing changed.
No matter how much he hit Maia, he couldn’t hurt Maia, whereas the giant’s limbs became even more bloody.
After a while, the bizarre scene in which the person who was hit is fine but the one who was hit is rather injured is over.
It was when Maia, who had been concentrating on treating Arbella with her own body no matter what the giant did, finally stretched out her hand.
A slender fist that strikes the giant’s fist head-on.
It was an obvious result, reminiscent of an egg thrown on a rock.
Pew!
But after two fists collided.
It wasn’t enough that the whole fist was shattered and all the bones from the arm to the shoulder were shattered.
what a shock it was
When the giant flew to the end of the laboratory and wriggled while locked in the wall.
Maia slowly rose from her seat and opened her mouth.
“…The abilities after transformation are definitely better than those of most high-level players, but it seems that his intelligence is fatally inferior.”
just sober
more calmly.
As a researcher, her way of analyzing the giant’s abilities was calm, as if she had forgotten everything that had just happened.
But the giant hardened.
Maia looking straight at herself.
It was because she sensed something terrifyingly frenzied in her green eyes.
Seeing the giant tremble with instinctive fear, Maia held a colder sneer than usual.
“Have you not heard from the one who sent you? You must never touch me with your bare body.”
“Khhhh?”
For a while, I was taken aback by the words I didn’t know the meaning of.
The giant soon opened his eyes.
It was not the fist that exploded in the gloved fist, but the hand that had been torn as it slapped Maia’s cheek.
Passsss.
charred blood.
bumpy bumps.
Even muscles that twist and spasm.
What came along with the extreme change, as if from being poisoned by dozens of poisons, was the terrible pain that burned the brain despite the disappearing sense of pain.
“Quaaaaagh!”
from hand to arm to shoulder.
It’s like spreading food on white paper.
As the mutation spread, the giant screamed at the growing pain.
“No, come to think of it, maybe I didn’t tell you at all. After all, subordinates are nothing more than consumables to him.”
Maia didn’t care even when she saw it.
It seemed like a familiar sight.
He moved slowly and distanced himself from Arbella while approaching the giant, holding the glove he was wearing in one hand.
Squeak.
Like the skin cast by a snake.
The gloves that covered the elbows came off.
Instead, what was revealed was a hand as beautiful as a pure white jade, as if it had never been exposed to sunlight.
Maia continued, revealing the transparent corn that was not so white.
“If you didn’t know, find out now.”
one step.
one more step.
I approached the giant who was stuck in the wall and slowly stretched out my hand.
“Why can’t you touch me?”
So, with that chilly voice, the moment I touched the giant’s body with a hand that revealed white skin.
-An explosion began.
Woodeuk Wooded Deuk!
“Kuhhhhh keewong.”
It did not explode and scatter blood and flesh like the self-destructed test subject.
Even so, the transformation of the giant was so ignorant that it could only be thought of as having exploded.
The size that had already swelled up suddenly increased several times.
Instead, what fills her body is not hard muscles, but black tumors and strong acidic venom.
Sharp protrusions like thorns sprout from the bones to tear the body, and the internal organs turn green like plants and grow roots.
when the change is over.
There were no more human figures left there.
It’s like a plant.
It’s like being an animal.
It was like being alive.
looks like it’s dead.
Only ‘something’ was wriggling in the swollen tumor mass like a ball, mixed with bone branches and plant stems, spewing venom like blood.
Maybe it’s because he couldn’t even stand his own venom.
Maia, who watched with ferocious cynicism as she melted alive, turned her body away.
Then, as he approached Arbella and tried to sense his pulse, he looked at her own white skin and put his hand away in shock.
Look down at your hands with grim eyes for a moment.
Putting on the gloves again, she turned to the researchers who had retreated to one side of the lab.
“Take Arbella and treat her.”
“Yes, Princess.”
The researchers, who had been watching Maia with eyes filled with fear and awe, finally approached and carefully carried Arbella on a stretcher.
I was careful not to get closer to her than a certain distance.
Maia took the sight for granted.
She is the Green Dragon Princess.
Because he was a descendant of the Poison Green Dragon Medicine Army.
While silently watching the researchers load Arbella out, she gave the order to bring Barbara.
As time went by, I tried to ignore the pain that surged in my chest…
* * *
It took quite a bit of time to rectify the situation.
Part of the laboratory collapsed, secondly, because the entire laboratory was contaminated by the remains of a giant that eventually melted into a handful of poisonous water.
Because of that, she had to deal with the miasma herself, but returned to the artificial flower garden only after leaving Barbara to take care of it.
Then he walked across the flower garden toward the throne.
No, I was going to walk.
Before he could move a few steps, he let out a strong cough and sat down.
“Cough Cough Cough!”
The seizures did not subside, but it was because of the excessive treatment of Arbella.
In an incomparably more severe attack, Maia coughed repeatedly.
Every time he coughed, blood gushed out, and more blood drained from his already pale face, accompanied by a tearing pain in his chest.
In order to subside the seizure, Maia tried to control the psionic and take the medicine.
But that’s just a vain wish.
Despite Maia’s efforts, the cough got worse and worse, and it was difficult to even open the lid of the medicine bottle with trembling hands.
“Coke!”
Tuk Degur.
It was a pity.
Maia collapsed to the ground and gritted her teeth as she saw the bottle she had dropped rolling among the flowers.
Then he reached out to pick up the vial again.
very little
Forcibly move your convulsing body.
The moment when you feel as if your outstretched hand has finally touched an evil disease.
“Cough Cough!”
Maia bit her lip as the vial flicked back from her twitching fingers with another cough.
I don’t know if it’s normal.
The distance from the vial was too far for her now that it was difficult to even move her fingers.
So Maia had no choice but to regret it.
‘Was it a mistake?’
whatever you dreamed about in the morning
When I felt unwell, I had to take medicine.
If that were the case, there wouldn’t have been a sudden seizure in the middle of a fight or Arbella would have done such a foolish thing.
But who did.
Regret is always too late.
Maia, who had already suffered from severe seizures, had no choice but to endure everything while immersed in regret, as she had said.
The pain of tearing my heart apart.
The beautiful flower garden is turning black around you.
And even the rapidly deteriorating condition of one’s own body beyond that flower garden.
It was unavoidable.
Only two aides can enter this artificial garden.
However, Arbella barely survived the crisis and is receiving treatment, and now Barbara is busy taking care of the situation in the laboratory.
There was no one from the green dragon clan to come to her aid.
“…I didn’t feel like it, so I hurriedly came to see it.”
but right after that.
Maia remembered again.
The only exception to this artificial garden besides the green dragon clan.
The existence of the most arrogant makeshift slave who dared to remodel this garden at will without asking his permission.
“Are you okay, Master?”
It’s like a slave who really cares about his master.
A black-haired young man approaching her, asking for her comfort as she collapsed in a field of flowers.
Seeing him calmly cross the border of the flower garden dyed black, Maia involuntarily exclaimed.
“stop!”
Is it because I was forced to shout?
The pain, which had been excruciating before, doubled, and clots of blood poured out from the depths of his lungs.
But even in the midst of that, Maia desperately opened her mouth again.
“Cough Cough Cough! Don’t come near me… no, get out of here right now.”
“…Is that an order?”
“Yes.”
It seems very unexpected.
Maia didn’t change her words even while watching Limon make a mysterious expression.
Approaching her who had a seizure was an act that even the pharmacist of the Green Dragon clan, who had reached the level of a master, risked his life.
Then it was better to be alone.
In this place, my body will recover little by little from the poisonous air of the flower garden.
It didn’t matter if I didn’t know how many hours the recovery would take and if I had to continue to suffer in the meantime.
It was a million times better to endure the pain than to watch someone else get sick and die because of you.
“If it’s an order, I have no choice but to follow it as a slave. Then I will go away.”
“Come on!”
“yes. Let’s go.”
When he saw Limon, who had been staring at him as if contemplating what to do, eventually shrugged and turned around.
That was why Maia felt relieved.
but right after that.
She couldn’t help but open her eyes.
“Oops, my foot slipped!”
“…!”
Pretend you’ve stepped on something wrong and lost your balance.
It seemed like he was falling backwards, but of course he jumped over three consecutive somersaults and crossed the border of a flower field dyed black.
Limon, who landed right in front of Maia with a perfect score of 10, scratched his cheek as if he was very embarrassed to see her shocked face.
“Sorry for this. I was going to go out as ordered, but this dull body didn’t listen properly, so I made a mistake.”
“This crazy…!”
It’s because it’s so out of the ordinary.
Maia, who was looking at Limon with a bewildered face, heard the shameless words and screamed without realizing it.
“What are you doing now!”
Do you know how crazy it is to approach your current self?
Maia, who was trying to argue with anger, couldn’t finish her words and coughed again.
and turned pale
The blood he coughed up and coughed up.
It was because he had seen the swarthy blood spatter on Limon’s cheek.
‘…at last.’
Maia closed her eyes.
From the moment he was covered with his own blood, Limon’s fate had already been decided.
I was afraid of this, so I forbade him to come close.
Maia waited for the tragedy to follow, lamenting Limon’s foolishness for bringing about her own destruction and her own fate that she could not escape.
But after a while.
She felt something strange.
Not only did I not hear the screams that should have been heard long ago, but I heard only rustling sounds that somehow seemed to be breaking through the bush.
The moment I opened my eyes again to confirm the identity of that strange sound.
Maia hardened.
“How many pills will it take?”
“…what?”
“This medicine, how many pills can I take?”
By now, the flesh should have started to melt, or at least paralysis.
Maia couldn’t help but hold her breath as she saw Limon shaking the medicine bottle with a natural look on her face, even though she was covered in poisonous blood.
