Chapter 254
Episode 254
The effect of Yongyong’s claws was clear. From Incheon to Bucharest, we were never attacked by monsters.
Is this the majesty of a divine beast? So, does the monster recognize the existence of the divine beast, or does it think of it as a predator stronger than itself?
[My toenails.]
“I heard they grow quickly.”
[It’s really you who damaged my body. Why am I making friends with a human…]
Regardless of whether Yongyong was whining or not, I was impressed by the claw effect achieved through friend rain.
If I had known that friend fees were this useful, I would have made more friends sooner, but I regretted my decision to think that friends were unnecessary.
However, it was a bit unusual that my first friend in life was a divine beast rather than a human.
Anyway, I need to make a lot of friends in the future. Should we meet Hyuna after hunting the monster and ask her to become friends? Well, I hope you accept it.
When I arrived at the Bucharest airport after 13 hours, I saw that there was quite a commotion.
It must have arrived more than two days earlier than expected.
I went outside with an interpreter sent by the government. A Romanian government official approached us, but since it was not related to our official schedule, we decided to go to our destination first. The Romanian president is already in the eastern city of Galachi and is leading the evacuation.
“Let’s go to where old Franz is.”
With the interpreter’s interpretation, I boarded the prepared vehicle and started moving.
The reason why I look for old Franz in Bucharest is simple. I heard that old Franz jumped in to save the idiots who didn’t know that the two-horned monster was scary and were willing to sacrifice their lives.
As a result, we succeeded in saving slightly more than half of the people, but we heard that the injuries were serious.
How stupid are you to jump in for someone else? Even though I thought it was just like inspiration, it made me click my tongue.
Even if you sacrifice for others, no one will recognize you. In the end, it was the worst move that only gave me physical discomfort in addition to the small self-satisfaction.
The reason I am respected and treated is because my skills are intact. Even if you make a sacrifice, evaluating it as sacred or noble is short-lived, and all that remains is disdain for not being able to demonstrate your abilities.
Soon after, I arrived at the general hospital in Bucharest. I got out of the car and immediately followed the familiar energy into the hospital. And soon I found a familiar face.
“Why did you come so early?”
“Tsk.”
When I saw Franz, I clicked my tongue. There was a large surgical scar where his gray hair had been shaved. And the right hand, which he mainly used, had disappeared without a trace under his forearm.
Old Franz, conscious of my gaze, shrugged his shoulders as if nothing had happened.
Just pretend to be calm. His skills, which were already on the decline, will inevitably plummet due to this injury. It was a useless sacrifice.
“You can get injuries like this when fighting monsters. “I was able to stop it cheaply by running away from that monster.”
“That’s what happened when I recklessly charged at a guy who was no match for me.”
“You are the only one who would disparage this noble sacrifice so much. “It will sound more pleasant to listen to.”
“Why do you judge something so foolish?”
“Hehe, that’s quite a heartbreaking statement.”
Instead of being offended by what I said, old Franz smiled. I must have suffered a serious head injury while dealing with a two-horned monster, and I will never be able to show off my skills from now on, so I don’t know why I’m so calm.
Can the restoration of a saint’s divinity be able to regenerate a blown-off arm? That’s something close to a miracle, but I’ve never heard of something like that being possible.
“If you know that your skills are lacking, just quietly watch from behind.”
“oh! “Does that mean you’re going to go hunting?”
“We’ll have to negotiate.”
“What if something goes wrong?”
“I will still hunt.”
“okay?”
Franz’s expression brightened.
“If you refused, I was going to pretend to feel sorry for you because you were injured. “I feel relieved that I don’t have to do that.”
For your information, pretending to be pitiful doesn’t work for me at all.
Rather, I just don’t like the fact that he clumsily jumped in for someone else’s sake and got injured.
“Why do you feel sorry for being swayed by idiots?”
I said as I spotted Laura Ann standing a little distance away.
“Those idiots who can’t make proper decisions even after learning from you.”
“….”
Laura Ann lowered her head without being able to refute. Since these guys thought of monster hunting like some kind of pastime, it could be said to be a natural result.
“by the way.”
Old Franz made a point of trying to draw my attention to himself.
A stupid guy like that needs to be given more real education, but he’s showing terrible love for his students.
“Did you come early because you were worried about me?”
“It can’t be. “I came early because I didn’t like long flights.”
“Does it sound like you can come early if you want to?”
“it’s possible.”
“her! Are you trying to monopolize that good thing for yourself?”
“I’m the only one who can do this.”
“….”
I left Franz, who was dumbfounded, and looked around. It was a hospital, but I couldn’t see any medical staff, but I could see many faces.
Actually, I wasn’t really curious about who it was, but looking at the energy I felt, it seemed like they were stupid superhumans who pretended to be crazy and rushed at the two-horned monster.
All of the injuries appeared to be serious. Among them, the one coming behind me was the only one who was fine.
“Are you a head breaker?”
“you?”
“It’s Kieran Woodley.”
If you look at its size, it looks similar to Jolaman. But what can I do?
“Did you think I would know who I was if I told you my name?”
“what?”
Kieran Woodley’s expression distorted at my words. Since when do you start confidently introducing yourself as a famous guy?
“I don’t want to worry about this guy who rushes in without knowing the topic, so get the hell away.”
“How dare you….”
“How dare you? “I don’t think it’s a word someone would use because they’re scared of monsters.”
Even though he was just telling the truth, sparks flew in Kieran Woodley’s eyes.
“die!”
It’s obvious to predict the behavior of these guys.
I dodged Kieran’s excited hand and lightly broke his arm.
Although he looked fine on the outside, it was easy to deal with a monster with two horns and twist the arm of a guy with a bone disease.
Quad deuk!
“Aaaah!”
As the forearm was broken and the bones protruded, a terrifying scream came out of the guy’s mouth. I broke his shin bone with my foot, made him kneel, and covered his face with my hand.
The bones at my temples became soft and formed small cracks.
“Ugh! “Off!”
The guy struggled to get away, but was it possible?
Well, it’s kind of funny to see a big guy over 210cm struggling while being grabbed by a much smaller person like me.
Should I just smash his head like this?
While I was thinking about it, I heard Franz’s voice.
“Are you going to kill him?”
“Then will you save me?”
“I have to survive.”
“Why?”
“He’s a strong guy. “If he takes the lead and holds out against monsters, a lot more people can survive.”
Now that I think about it, the injury I just received was serious, but it was jumping around like a fresh live fish.
The recovery is pretty good, right? I looked at him and put my hand in his chest.
“…!”
Everyone around was shocked. But I didn’t break his heart, but just smeared it with blood and took it out.
I could see my chest healing quickly. I took the blood on my hands to my mouth.
I never thought super regeneration could be achieved so easily. It matched that of a black hound. The number of gifts increased to 11 in an instant, but I was planning to integrate them into Jellyeon.
I looked at him and kicked him in the stomach.
“Oops!”
The guy’s organs were twisted, a bowl of red blood poured out, and he passed out.
It’s a better punching bag than Berserker.
“I endured it because of you.”
“Speaking harshly without any influence from me.”
“I see that you’re safe, so I’ll just head back.”
“I’ll come visit you when you’re all better. Before that, please do some monster hunting.”
“There’s no reason to give something for free to people who don’t understand their topic and hide behind it.”
You already got what you wanted, but there’s no harm in getting something extra.
“Those guys are driven by their own greed, and most of them are good people.”
“I will talk with the saint and decide.”
I waved lightly and left the hospital.
* * *
Perhaps because I arrived, the atmosphere in Bucharest felt busier.
Government officials relayed the news that they would come rushing in after completing the evacuation of the president.
It may not be nutritious, but I think I need to meet the president and the saint will arrive soon.
Anyway, what do you get from the saint?
[If you don’t have anything to receive, can I ask for something?]
Yongyong suddenly intervened.
Because it was an unexpected trend, I couldn’t answer for a moment and then asked.
“What?”
[I have a question. But if you want something, I don’t have to give it to you.]
I pretended not to, but Yongyong seemed to be quite earnest in what he wanted.
Maybe you can help your friend.
“I’ll think about it more and if there’s nothing I want, you’ll listen.”
[Really?]
“I pulled out toenails for my friend, but can’t you do something like this?”
[You are such a great friend!]
When I came here, I was always murmuring. Well, I decided to think positively.
The next day I heard that the saint had arrived in Bucharest. So, we decided to adjust the schedule and have a meeting, but there was an unexpected and uninvited guest at the meeting.
When I asked him who it was, as his strength was almost comparable to that of old Franz, he said it was Harry Carlson, a British superman. He’s from the same country as Kieran Woodley, who I worked on yesterday.
“Why did you bring that?”
“Lord Carlson was an important superhuman in England and a member of the Ten Superhumans…”
The saintess tried to explain, but Harry Carlson took the lead.
“Are you sure you injured Kieran?”
British English is a bit different. It was a bit annoying to hear.
“Huh why?”
“You’re proud of injuring Britain’s superman. “It’s just like the rumor.”
“You think you can hunt that monster with maggot-like judgment?”
“what?”
It was in the information given by Nasir. Harry of England and Antoine of France, who were in their early teens, opposed Franz’s decision and agreed to fight against the Two-horned Demon on their own in Europe.
Those guys didn’t actually step forward and tried to measure the monster’s fighting power by using other guys.
They pretended to be worried by looking back, but it was easy for me to figure out what these guys were thinking.
“If you don’t have the courage to step up and fight, then stay back. gentle.”
English also feels like it sticks to my mouth.
On the other hand, Harry Carlson’s face, who was treated like a maggot, heated up as if it were about to explode.
“What a piece of shit!”
“If you’re dissatisfied, why not attack me?”
“….”
“Can you suddenly control your anger?”
“okay! “I’ll break your head!”
Harry Carlson stretched out his hand as if he had been waiting. Of course, I expected it and tried to stop it, but a strange trend occurred. Even though it had not yet arrived, a dull shock was felt.
What is this?
“oh!”
I don’t know how it worked, but it was clear that it was his gift. Is the transfer of force faster? No matter what it was, it was clear that it was an attack that dazzled the eyes and disturbed the senses.
There is a reason why he took the position of the former teenage superhuman.
It was a move that caught me off guard, but the damage I suffered was not significant. Mandeuk and Gwangsim used the force at the same time, reflexively dispersing the shock. Following my instructions, the two egos played the role of extra strength.
I wondered if there was more, so I concentrated.
But that was all. A gift that surprises with its powerful potential. The monotonous combination of the two was the end. This is what a pre-teen is like?
Well, if it weren’t for me, it could have been an effective attack.
But he met the wrong person.
I saw through the guy’s half-beat-fast attacks, which were swirling like a storm, and blocked them all. Even if you reach it quickly, you can just pour in the force and form a shield. When his attack arrives, focus your defense there.
The well-honed senses and diligent work of the Gifts create the perfect defense.
I expected more fresh stimulation to follow, but Harry Carlson only launched faster attacks here and there was nothing special.
You’re not hiding your power, are you?
“Is this the end?”
puck!
“Oops!”
…I thought about it, but no.
Harry Carlson’s momentum was shaken when he fired a sniper and was hit in the shoulder by a bullet. I expected him to be quite strong since he was in his early teens, but other than the gift, there was nothing special about him.
“I think I’m weaker than old Franz.”
Do you think Franz will be at a similar level after he gets old? No, if you know this guy’s gift, Old Man Franz will win.
Not now that my arm has been blown off.
“You son of a bitch!”
Harry Carlson’s eyes rolled back at my assessment and he rushed over. Well, I had nothing else to do with the guy who had lost all his money, so I shot him, making a hole in his body and twisting his limbs.
Perhaps because he is one of the oldest people in his early teens, he feels flabby when he bends his limbs.
Should I kill him? No, it would be a hassle, so it would be better to make him unable to do his job by inflicting irreversible injuries.
“Headbreaker.”
“why?”
“Can you please stop?”
As expected, it comes out like that.
But I have no intention of gently letting the guy who attacked me survive.
It might be a bit annoying, though.
Ugh!
At that time, Mandeuk presented his opinion to me at an unexpected point.
He worked hard while assisting me and created something interesting.
I was intrigued when I heard what it was.
You were so tired of consolidating gifts that you ended up making something fun like this?
“I won’t kill you.”
“Really?”
“Okay, I won’t kill you.”
I decided to test what Mandeuk had completed on Harry Carlson.
He raised his left hand high and activated Mandokbulsim and Mine at the same time at his fingertips. And the will to never attack Germany was placed on the mine.
Squeeze!
He plunged it into Harry Carlson’s chest. The guy who jumped up as if he had been shocked by electricity trembled violently and soon fell limp.
There’s a lot of resistance. It seems that it can only be effective if it is completely suppressed.
When I finished taking action and shook off my hands, the saintess was looking at me with astonished eyes.
“What on earth did he do?…”
“Just looking at him, he looks like he has a long back end. If you don’t want to kill him, you have to put in a safety device.”
What was just cast was a nerve poison created through a method that Mandeuk learned while deciphering various poisons.
Man-deuk, who learned the principles of poison as if it were true that he was a Man-ryu demon, created a poison combined with mines and synchronized the mine poison with the force of the opposing awakened person.
“Then what happens?”
“I planted mine in this guy’s Force, so he shouldn’t even think about me. “If you think of me, you’ll immediately have a seizure.”
Of course, this poison is not omnipotent, so there are ways to solve it.
A person with at least superhuman skill who possesses a cancellation gift comparable to the Unstoppable Invulnerability can separate the mine from his force without disarming it or reminding me of it.
None of this will be easy. If brainwashing fills the mind with clarity, it can be said that it engraves me in every nook and cranny of my body.
Great job! I’ll give you a few hours of vacation!
Ugh!
Mandeuk was in a festive mood, and Gwangsim and Jelyeon watched with envy.
This competitive structure is truly the driving force for development.
I just have to take the fruits.
After completing the action, I looked at the white-faced saint and spoke.
“Then let’s start negotiations.”
