Episode 423 The Friendly Killer’s Dilemma (2)
“Don’t come any closer! Get back! “Otherwise, I’ll pierce my head with this!”
He shouted firmly.
He took the dagger from Damian’s waist and held it to his neck. I pressed it hard as if I was going to stab it through a gap in my armor.
Of course it was an act. Are you really planning on stabbing me? Of course there wasn’t any. But the action needs to be done properly. That way he will be fooled.
‘Please, please don’t be fooled. ‘Get caught!’
Rachiel was thankful that the helmet did not show any nervous expression on her face. And I desperately wanted it.
Please, I hope Bone Dragon reacts as we intended. So, please give me a gap to get out of this moment.
‘This may seem absurd, but it’s still possible. ‘It’s probably the best I can do right now.’
I felt confident.
There is no better way than this.
At least that’s the case in the current situation.
‘escape? I can’t hit it. I still feel dizzy. Maybe my legs will listen properly. If you want to even be able to run normally… you’ll need to recover for at least 5 minutes. Besides, Damian couldn’t come to his senses right now. But run away? ‘That’s nonsense.’
If you try to run away clumsily, you will only end up irritating the Bone Dragon.
But counterattack?
‘That’s even more ridiculous.’
There is virtually no means of counterattacking.
A vague way of thinking?
If I hit him, will it hurt?
Air and water stored in circle slots? No matter how vigorously you spray it, it won’t have any effect. Even now, he had left the ice cap and fountain pen in the care of Lord Greno.
So counterattack is impossible.
Escape is also impossible.
But what if I just keep paying attention to what he thinks? Still dies. Even now, radiation exposure is accumulating in real time.
Life expectancy? As expected, Sunfeng is being cut down. As this time continues, the amount of radiation exposure will increase exponentially. Your lifespan will also decrease faster.
In other words, what can be done in this situation?
I felt like I had no choice but to take a gamble on Bone Dragon’s attitude, which had changed slightly strangely a while ago.
“Get back! Sting! really!”
I shouted with all my might.
Bone Dragon’s mood seems to have strangely changed a little while ago. The attitude seems to be that he is somehow worried about our situation. He nods as if he is anxiously checking to see if there are any injuries. crying sound. It’s an absurd conclusion, but perhaps he can be seen as ‘loving’ this person.
‘So please!’
I put my strength into the hand holding the dagger. The tip of the blade slightly pierced the gap in the armor.
If you fail to control your strength even a little, you just fall flat. I’ll die without even being able to use my hands. I might end up becoming a Darwin Award winner that I didn’t even want.
But I couldn’t help it.
Because it shouldn’t be even the slightest bit clumsy.
‘So! Jebaal!’
Sigh!
It was the moment when the dagger and the gap in the armor let out an ominous noise.
– Sigh…?
Bone Dragon shook the head that was lying on the floor. Then he quickly lifted it up. Could it be an attack? Are you inspired by this person’s actions? It wasn’t. He took a step back!
‘…It worked!’
I could be sure by looking at it. He said he was embarrassed. I was surprised by their attitude. I’m afraid. what? This side is dying.
‘Why?’
I couldn’t figure it out. But for now, it was important that their intimidation through self-hostage taking was effective.
He shouted while keeping the dagger pressed to his throat.
“I warned you not to come! “Stab!”
I shouted and got up from my seat.
I felt dizzy.
I held back.
He reached out his other hand and grabbed hold of Damian’s breastplate decoration. He dragged himself away. So that we can get away from Bone Dragon even a little.
Jijijijik…!
A stronger body than this one. Damian, wearing tens of kilograms of shielding armor, was incredibly heavy. It was even more so because the guy was lying limp and unconscious.
But if you don’t pull it, you die. If you don’t back away or increase the distance between you and the Bone Dragon, you will die. I mobilized the circle with just that thought in mind.
I poured all my strength into it and repeatedly pulled back and retreated. The dagger was still pointed at his neck.
“Whoa! Phew! Sigh! Phew! If only we could get closer! Sting! did! Whoosh! hook!”
Breathing becomes rough quickly.
Sweat poured down like rain.
I felt dizzy.
It wasn’t too much of a stretch.
‘What am I… I’m not even a muscle man!’
Although it is said that he was able to generate great power through a simple mind technique, it is only the result of mobilizing all his mana. In essence, this body of Crown Prince Rachiel was a sickly and pitiful body.
Of course, it’s a lot better than before, but that doesn’t mean the essence has changed.
However, it had been less than 10 minutes since he had been thrown from a cart that overturned while running at high speed and was thrown off the ground.
Strictly speaking, it was normal to lie down holding the back of your neck and be taken to the emergency room.
However, having to carry out multiple hard labors while wearing stupid, non-ventilated full-body armor, dragging a mass weighing over 100 kilograms and endangering oneself with one hand. If this is not abuse, what else is it?
– Sigh! Sigh!
Is this person even worried(?)? The Bone Dragon took a long stride forward. Of course, his attempt was quickly recoiled by the shouts from this side.
“Did what I said sound like nonsense?”
Lots of cards!
He shouted again, scratching the gap in his armor with his dagger. The guy was shocked and stiffened. On the other hand, their hearts were hardened. To be honest, it was because I was starting to feel a bit lost.
‘First of all, the self-threat worked….’
How long will this trick work?
And in this current state, will it be possible to reach the final trap and escape route?
‘I should go.’
If you don’t go, you’ll die.
If you don’t like it, you have no choice but to go.
I took a breath. I was wary of Bone Dragon and pulled Damian to me. The upper body was raised.
And carried it on its back. I decided that this would be better than dragging my feet.
“…ugh.”
Two pieces of shielding armor plus Damian’s weight. As soon as I carried it, I was out of breath. In my mind, I was thinking, ‘Damien Cayenne! The words ‘120,000 months’ salary reduction!’ came out of nowhere.
But I walked.
Slowly, but step by step. Step by step. I had to hold my knees that were about to collapse, raise my head that was about to fall… and cast a moonwalk, which wasn’t even in the Four Pillars of Death!
‘Oh shit!’
I couldn’t walk forward. If you do that, you will have Bone Dragon on your back. You won’t be able to react if he makes a sudden move.
So I had no choice but to walk back. I couldn’t even take big steps.
I was worried that if I got caught on a rock, I might fall down with Damian on my back.
Thanks to you…
shakshashak shakshashak!
“Beep whine! “Nooo!”
What is this sad(?) feeling of having to continue the confrontation with the Bone Dragon while suddenly making the sound of a local poop and performing the moonwalk!
It kept moving.
Only towards the deep end of the shaft. It moved and moved again.
Meanwhile, the Bone Dragon was secretly following us while maintaining a certain distance. Every time I saw that image blurry through the special glasses, I suddenly got goosebumps.
It was a time of pain and patience that felt like an eternity.
How much did it move like that? How much I must have gasped from the heat filling up inside the shielding armor. How many times have I lost consciousness halfway and barely come back? I wonder how much I had to bite my lip until it bled to keep from passing out while feeling like I was suffocating.
Maybe it will stay like this forever?
Maybe I can’t reach it.
It was around that time when I had that thought.
…Took!
Something touched my heel. Stone beak? It wasn’t. It wasn’t sharp or bumpy. I felt a long straight line and a clean right angle.
When I glanced down, I saw the first step of a low staircase.
‘They’re all here.’
I came down here with the mayor two days ago. It was for a final inspection of the installed ships. The structure of the makjang that I saw at the time came to mind.
‘Starting from here, it’s a wide hallway. If you go up about ten steps like this, there is a straight passage about 50 meters long. At the end of it, there is a makjang that is trimmed to look like a large room.’
The moment I felt the end of hope, my clouded consciousness became a little clearer. Some of the energy I thought was depleted rose again. My brain was spinning.
Until the end, I remembered in advance the process of maintaining a distance from the Bone Dragon through self-intimidation, moving in an instant, activating a trap, and rushing to the exit in the corner.
‘you can do it. ‘You can do it.’
Everything will fall apart in an instant. It was a moment when my heart suddenly pounded at that thought.
– Sigh? Kahaak?
Suddenly, the bone dragon howled sharply. And it took a big step forward, as if trying to ignore the distance it had maintained so far.
“…hey!”
I hurriedly shouted.
The dagger violently scratched the neck gap of the armor. There was an ominous clanging sound and sparks flying out.
“Does what I say sound like a joke! uh!”
He shouted fiercely.
But the guy wasn’t as scared as before. I did stop in my spot, but what can I say?
– Sssssssssssssssssssssssssssss…?
Tilt your head.
He looked at me with a strange look.
I had to realize it the moment I met those eyes.
The bluff was exposed.
I got goosebumps.
‘Damn it.’
I quickly climbed the stairs in the back. My legs were shaking. It moved even faster. But the more I do that, the more he takes another step.
Coo!
“…!”
The guy took a big step forward and completely blocked the back. In other words, this side was placed under the guy’s chest.
The guy’s huge skull staring down. Empty eyeballs. The distance has become so close. Notifications of accumulated radiation exposure ringing like crazy in my ears. A blood-colored warning window appears every moment.
Should we at least try to attack?
It was that moment.
– Sigh!
The Bone Dragon opened its huge maw. And then I asked Damien carefully. Lifted. It was with a sad heart.
– Tsukahaak! Sigh…!
Since you seem to be having a hard time carrying your friend around, let me help you.
Actinus, a member of the family of plague, wanted to make peace with the human in front of him.
It was because he was so excited that he played tag earlier, and that person made a big fuss, which made him angry.
– …Tsukahak! Haaah!
I was sorry earlier. So, won’t you let me off your anger if I move your friend instead? Wouldn’t it be better if I helped you rather than having to carry you around on your own?
I asked with that in mind. Holding Damian lightly in his mouth, he lifted him up. Focusing the empty eye sockets on Rachiel. sincerely. Like a low whisper.
‘no!’
Rachiel became urgent.
No wonder it bit Damian. What if he puts pressure on his chin like this? Damian won’t be able to resist and will be crushed.
Then it’s all over.
The Demon King will wake up. Families will be shaken, society will collapse, unemployment will soar, prices will soar (except for salaries), and the world itself may become a heap of ashes.
‘No, let alone that! ‘I don’t want to die here!’
My pulse is pounding.
I raised my head as I felt my heartbeat rapidly speed up. You must respond quickly. We have to find a way. He moved his urgent gaze.
At that moment, the core located in the Bone Dragon’s chest came into view.
“….”
A core that has never been seen from this angle before.
When I got to the bottom of the guy’s chest and looked up, I could finally see…
‘…crack?’
The moment Rachiel discovered the traces of incomplete union faintly engraved on Actinus’ core, her eyes widened.
