The Blood Knight’s Villains - Chapter 224
My Villains Episode 224
47. Nightmare (6)
Around the time when the black giant turns to dust and scatters. A gust of wind suddenly blew in.
A huge mansion nestled in a quiet suburb has regained its silence. The gate that revealed itself welcomed a woman with its arms wide open.
“long time no see.”
Wearing a neat white shirt and a blue skirt, the pale-faced Soha smiled.
The smile shattered something like blackened glass that hid a series of memories. Memories that were beyond the glass rushed in like waves and made a mess in my head and scratched me…
“Yes, you.”
“I missed you.”
He continued to speak in a calm tone as usual with a smile on his face.
“I never imagined that I would be back here or see my brother again.”
“…Now I get it. This is in my dream.”
“My heart is a little overwhelmed to think that I appeared in my brother’s dream.”
“under. They said it was a dream territory, so it must have been a nightmare territory.”
“I heard that you joined our company. what a surprise I heard you work in Gwanghwamun?”
I tried to ignore the words, but I bit my lower lip when I saw a happy expression on Soha’s face.
“Don’t get me wrong. If I knew it was your affiliate”
“Lie.”
The smile deepened. Soha slowly approached and looked up at me.
“You were after me. They searched for me anxiously without knowing anything. That’s what I was.”
“Stop talking like that dog, it’s creepy.”
“cute. It’s like a pouty puppy.”
Soha, who had come closer to me with an outstretched arm, looked up at me with a smile. Hatefully, it is the face of an innocent girl who does not know the world.
The hand holding Hrunting trembled, then he gnashed his teeth and asked her a question. No, just as he was about to ask a question, Soha opened his mouth first.
“Did you go backpacking after graduation?”
“…Mmm what?”
“You received a subsidy from a newspaper contest.”
“You can’t.”
“that’s right. I followed you for a month and a half and you didn’t notice at all?”
mischievous eye smile.
“It can’t be. You met my eyes a few times.”
Leaning her upper body as if leaning on me, who was as stiff as a stone statue, she lifted her tiptoe.
“Do you know why my brother didn’t report it or not?”
The bright red lips did not even reach the shoulder blades, let alone ears, but Soha lowered his voice as if whispering.
“Because I missed you. Right?”
“…a bitch like a psycho.”
“You are too weak and kind to live outside of my arms.”
Soha stretched out her thin arms and wrapped her arms around my waist. Then he leaned his head against my stomach and continued to whisper.
“How indifferent is such a good person to be indifferent. You don’t even know your own heart until you teach it.”
“Let go of this.”
back.
I grabbed Soha by the shoulder and tried to push him away, but
“I don’t like it.”
She didn’t even budge. It was a tremendous strength that did not suit her slender body….
“Ugh, damn it-”
“My life was completely ruined because of you. You have to take responsibility.”
“Don’t bullshit.”
Seeing Soha’s eyes turn black, I began to struggle like a maniac.
“You must have *turned off* my life!”
“no. no.”
The finely pleated blue skirt was turned inside out. The smooth legs under it were now united as one, stained black.
“It’s because of your brother.”
Soha’s lower body, which had turned into a black mass, swelled up in an instant. In the process, six carapaceous legs reminiscent of insects sprouted and reached the ground.
“Oh, these X-arms-”
In that way, the shape of a human upper body sprouting from the spider’s torso was completed.
“Let this go!”
I was held in Soha’s arms, and I was carried up into the air as her spider-like lower body grew to the size of a house.
“The first day I saw you. You bought me a digestive medicine because of my bewitched words at a drinking party. You laughed and acted cute without knowing anything about me and waggled your tail like a lost puppy-” Even as I struggled desperately, she continued to mutter as if casting a spell.
“At most, I came back after transforming into my brother’s taste, like magic and like Cinderella.”
With her whites and eyes all black from the darkness that started from her pupils, Soha shook her chin and looked up at me clinging to her arms.
“But Yoo Hee-won fell for that slut-like vulgar bitch and didn’t even pay attention to me. Then it’s not your brother’s responsibility that we ended
up like this
. ”
A long arrow sprouted from the spider’s body.
“Kyaaak-!”
The words that had been pouring out like rapid fire were cut off by a sharp scream. At the same time, the strength that had been holding her back slightly weakened.
“Sigh.”
I slammed Soha down on her elbow with Hrunting’s permal, then threw herself backwards, pushing her belly with my foot.
“No—!” I found a blackened gaze as I got out of Soha’s arms and somersaulted. So as soon as I landed on the ground, I rolled forward as if I was bouncing.
bang!
A thick spider leg slammed into the spot where I had landed. The flagstones on the floor shattered here and there, raising dust.
“In front of Phoenix-sama!”
Hearing Cole’s voice, I quickly turned my head to see Soha flipping the spider’s body over and aiming at me.
Then, with a sticky sound, a bundle of spider webs rushed in.
As soon as he was about to throw himself away to avoid it,
a large bundle of
evil spider webs spread as if they were about to explode.
I instinctively swung Hrunting, but only part of the spider’s web was cut, and the rest wrapped around my whole body.
“Sir-”
He fell backwards and struggled, but the sticky, tough spider web only entangled his limbs even more.
I didn’t want to do it, so I coated the Hrunting with blood and stirred it, and only then did the spider’s web cut off bit by bit.
It was Archer Cole who bought me time to get out of the web.
“You ugly monster bitch-!”
Cole rushed out of the mansion and quickly drew a protest with a shout.
The moment I let go of the string, a yellow flash flashed from the bow and arrow, and the long arrow was fired leaving only a vague afterimage.
So-ha belatedly moved her spider legs, but Cole’s arrow got stuck in her shoulder in an instant.
Kwa
“Kahueuk”
It must have been an enormous shock, but Do Soha only flinched and trembled, but quickly recovered her posture. Then he grabbed the arrow shaft stuck in his shoulder and pulled it out at once.
Boo-wook!
Clothes, including a thin shirt, were caught on the broad arrowhead and torn apart, revealing a new white naked body.
I stood up, tearing the web, and my eyes were drawn to Soha’s bare upper body, or to be more precise, to the small dot next to her belly button.
“……Huh.”
If it wasn’t for Phoenix’s extraordinary vision, it was a dot smaller than millet that would have caught the eye only when it was right in front of the nose.
That small dot brought up images that had been dormant in my head, such as a breathless smile, a gaze looking down, naked hair in the moonlight sliding, and a navel twisting anxiously.
While I was staggering with a headache, Soha, who had braced himself, pounced on me.
“Hehe, come here!”
As the abnormally huge body of the spider closed the distance in an instant, I hurriedly flew back and raised my sword.
‘% 方Hall—” — –As
Hrunting’s sword pointed at him, Soha twisted her lips into a smile.
“Your brother can’t hurt me.”
As they continued talking, black carapace sprouted like scales on the white upper body of a human.
“therefore. Don’t resist, just be nice.”
Cole’s arrow flew again and aimed at her throat. But the shiny carapace ricocheted off the arrow, leaving only a caang and a small scratch.
“I’ll take care of you and hug you.”
Goosebumps swelled from her fingertips to her affectionate gaze, knocking on my chest. I braced myself, biting my lower lip until it bled.
As the carapace filled up to the black eyes, Soha threw herself again and opened her mouth.
“forever-!”
After taking a stance with his legs apart, he calmed down and aimed his Hrunting at Soha.
“Whoa,”
flagstones and pebbles splashed and clouds of dust rose, but narrow eyes followed the movement of her legs.
Shuuk!
A leg with two claws at the end was slammed down, and I calmly took a backward step and swung the blade over my head. Hrunting that glows bright red with blood! With a cheerful sound, the leg was torn to pieces.
“Kkoaagh!”
Leaving behind Soha’s suppressed screams, I stepped on the steps as if dancing tango and sliced off her legs one after another.
“Ah ah ah-”
The body of the spider, with four of its six legs cut off, lost its balance and collapsed on its side.
“How can I?” Soha’s upper body clinging to it trembled and looked back at me.
“You said you loved me.”
Now I have a clear sense of what this world is like.
This is a world that embodies my dreams, or nightmares. A world in which the traumas buried under intimate memories or somewhere deep in the heart become reality and go wild.
“brother Brother.”
All of the carapaces covering Soha’s upper body were gone before he knew it. She crawled to me, dragging the body of a giant spider.
“You can’t do this to me…
I was able to notice that So-ha, who spoke mournfully, was just a fantasy from my nightmare.
“……okay.”
But even knowing this, it was not easy to coldly ignore her watery gaze.
“It’s only for a moment, but I think I loved you.” “Ahhh.
“I don’t know if it’s like Stockholm Syndrome, but there was a time when I waited for you like a puppy waiting for its owner to leave the house.”
He quietly held out his hand. Soha, who desperately crawled over, stretched out both hands and held my hand.
“It must have been a terrible time, but… Ha, it’s absurd. okay. I wasn’t all that unhappy.”
Instead of answering my words, Soha shed another tear.
“If you had done it differently, if I had paid even a little attention to you, a lot would have been different… I
knelt down on one knee, carefully pushing my hands away from me. Then he stroked her hair and wrapped her arms around her shoulders.
Tears flowed down the iron breastplate, splitting along the scratches and cascading down to the ground.
I gently patted the shaking back and swallowed a warm breath.
“I’m sorry, Soha.”
Hrunting’s blade slid between Soha’s ribs as he lay down.
“Huh OO” —
As the beating heart was broken into pieces,
a roaring sound came from somewhere
.
“Phoenix, look over there.”
Cole, who had been quietly watching Soha and me as we came closer, spoke in an urgent tone.
“The mansion is collapsing. We must move now!”
I quickly looked back and saw that the mansion was being swallowed up by a huge crack in the ground.
In the moment the pass team looked behind it, the cow that had stopped breathing turned into dust and scattered in all directions.
I blinked my eyes while examining something glittering and scattered, then quickly got up.
“Follow me.”
“Do you know where to go?” Instead of answering, I started running. Cole, who was running at the same time, caught his breath in astonishment when he saw the place I was heading to, the wide open gate. They found a black disc that appeared out of nowhere and turned into a passageway.
“Are you sure you want to go in there?”
“okay!”
“But-”
“The only way is over there anyway! Shut up and follow me!”
Even while I was screaming, the rift that had swallowed up the mansion was spreading in an instant in the direction of the gate.
Is it because he felt the ground vibrate like a wave ?
Cole kept his mouth shut and focused on following me with his legs.
As the cracks extending like lightning tickled our heels, we finally hurled ourselves into the dark passageway.
Crossing the black aisle was a very strange experience.
It felt like I had reached another planet after floating in space for a long time, and it seemed like I was teleported somewhere in the blink of an eye.
“Ouch”
me and Cole bounced out of the air like chewing gum someone had spit out. Fortunately, it was a dirt floor full of fallen leaves.
“…here is.”
Cole, who got up quickly, lowered his stance and corrected his bow. And it was a lot of whispering while holding my breath.
“It seems to be some kind of castle.”
“that’s right.”
The first thing that caught his gaze was probably the strangely shaped castle. A castle with a high and sharp chest wall that makes it look as if thorns are sticking out.
Inside the castle, which was likely to be eight or nine meters high, there were palace towers, barracks, knight’s halls, and the like. As Cole said, it looked like an adult from Middle World.
“…I don’t know if it landed in a foreign country other than the Milanol Kingdom.”
“why?”
“It’s hard to explain, but somehow it feels strange.” As Cole felt, besides the unique shape of the castle, several unusual parts stood out.
The height of the castle wall is also high, but the circumference is exceptionally long, so it is so grand that it cannot be compared with that of Longville or South Harbor.
The fact that the rocks that make up the walls and the wooden bricks used in the buildings were all dark and dull black.
And that in the distance there is a magnificent palace adorned with arched structures.
“It must be… a castle that looks like a king or duke would stay.”
“right?”
From Kim Seung-soo’s point of view, this is a castle with an atmosphere that wouldn’t be awkward even if the demon king lived there.
On the other hand, Phoenix is not used to it, so it is a disgusting space.
“You’re right.”
“yes?”
“It’s a castle where the king once resided and now the duke resides.” Leaving behind the wide-eyed Cole, I looked around again. Looking back on the memories of Phoenix, I am convinced.
“It’s ‘Tow’s Den.’”
“If it’s Tow’s Den…
Cole half-opened his mouth in surprise.
“Are you saying that this is Phoenix-sama’s family castle?”
“that’s right. It is the capital of Ireland and the birthplace of the two ducal families of Zahakar and Baluin.”
“Ah… Cole, whose mouth was wide open, nodded, regaining his composure.
“Then, this must be another dream of Phoenix-sama.”
“…well. I don’t think so.”
“yes? What do you mean?”
He raised his eyebrows at his questioning gaze and shrugged.
“It feels a bit strange to me. It’s not like my dream.”
I mean, Kim Seung-soo took Phoenix’s body and swallowed his soul.
At first, Kim Seung-soo and Phoenix’s souls did not mix like water and oil. However, after awakening to the ‘legendary lineage’ through shedding, their souls became properly united, and in the process, they absorbed most of Phoenix’s memories.
Of course, even now, after going through a series of processes, the ego as Kim Seung-soo is much stronger than the ego as Phoenix.
So, it feels a bit strange that Phoenix’s dream is manifested now.
“And decisively.”
After a moment of thought, I glanced up at the road we were standing on. It’s a familiar trail, but it’s a space that doesn’t mean anything to Phoenix.
“Look over there.”
W……
Following my chin gesture, Cole looked away and widened his eyes. It was because a human spirit appeared at the bottom of the road winding along the wall.
“Here.”
It was a familiar-looking woman who said that.
A woman wearing luxurious boots, shiny leather pants, and a vest with gold buttons. It was Heila.
“I waited a long time.”
She climbed up at a leisurely pace and blinked her eyes at me.
I burst out laughing when I read the welcome doctor’s disrespectful words in those eyes.
“Is this in your dream?”
“that’s right.”
“How did you realize?”
“I knew right away.”
” as soon as?”
“huh. It is a dream I have every day.”
Cole and I looked puzzled, but Heila seemed unwilling to explain further. Taking a leisurely step, she passed us and headed up the promenade.
“Follow me.”
“…Where are you going?”
“There is an exit.”
Heila’s white finger pointed to the palace in the distance.
The space where she and Phoenix spent their childhood. It was the ducal palace ‘Takanto’.
