Chapter 311
Episode 311
Kyaaaaaaa!
As I went ahead, a sharp, tearing cry rang out from behind me. They came after they noticed that I was heading towards the nest.
He’s definitely a smart guy. Even though he was a bird, he was quick to read the surrounding air currents and make decisions.
The series of steps in which it attacked me with excitement and then ran away could hardly be considered a monster that had been eaten by a malevolent star.
In fact, he had much better judgment than the villain who couldn’t understand the topic.
Yongyong also agreed with my thoughts.
[It seems to be a survival type.]
There were several types of monsters, and among them, the survival type survives by using the surrounding environment rather than its natural strength.
Usually, after avoiding it a few times, it ends up being eaten by a monster stronger than itself.
Basically, because they are not strong, they do not have an advantage in survival.
I remember Yongyong once evaluating the dog as a survival type. If you hadn’t met me, you probably would have disappeared.
“Then shouldn’t you just tame a survival-type monster?”
[You can do it, but it won’t be easy for other humans, right?]
Yongyong said, ironically, the reason Doggy grew up was because I beat him to death.
So the survival instinct was able to become active.
They say that it’s not something anyone can do to instill a sense of danger that I might die even though they’re not going to kill me.
I don’t know where the owner who took such kind care of him as I did is slandering him.
[No one thought that?]
“What?”
[You need to look back at yourself calmly.]
“No one sees things as calmly as I do.”
[Everyone knows it but you?]
I really don’t like the way Yongyong talks crookedly.
But I’m serious.
Since I once went crazy while pursuing only power, I had to calmly diagnose my condition myself.
That’s why I can stay sane.
anyway.
There are a lot of people who have a misunderstanding about me.
I don’t think it will be resolved by arguing with Yongyong. I decided to focus on dealing with Horus.
The effect of targeting his family was clear.
“Here you go.”
Before I knew it, what caught my eye was a nest believed to belong to Horus.
“It’s decorated like a palace.”
What caught my eye was a shallow cave. No, it was an artificially created nest.
Not only was it sheltered from wind and rain, but it also had space to store the monsters that were its prey, as well as a space similar to several rooms.
There were falcons there, which were believed to be Horus’ offspring.
Normally, I would have used that as bait and thoroughly trampled him.
Wow!
The goal now was to tame it.
I definitely felt something after dealing with the marlin guy last time.
It seems that as monsters become stronger, their desire to reproduce becomes stronger. And there is a definite obsession with their young.
You can catch them easily using that. As Jeong Da-hyeon said, using babies to draw out monsters is very effective.
I arrived in front of the nest before Horus.
“If you come any further, I will kill all your babies.”
Since they are a type that specializes in survival, I thought they could yell that it would be enough to have more children.
Kiyi.
The guy who was rolling his eyes didn’t move anymore, probably because he still valued his babies.
He was a really good listener.
Now let’s throw some bait.
“The way to save your babies is simple.”
Horus’s eyes met mine.
Rather than the fiery killing power typical of monsters, it contained quick calculations.
He’s a guy who can communicate well.
“Try to kill me.”
As if he understood what I was saying, his murderous spirit began to explode.
* * *
You are a foolish human being.
Horus truly thought so.
After two clashes, he decided that it was not easy and retreated, but Horus had no doubt that he would win if he fought properly.
The gap between humans and monsters was that big. Rather, Horus’ rivals were the rulers of the eastern desert beings, the western desert beings, and the northern lake-like seas.
Not only were there rulers there, but there were also powerful rivals, each of whom created a nest here and established their own territory.
Even if the rulers of that place came, I was confident that I would defeat them.
Are you just dealing with humans?
The reason he took a strategic retreat was because he thought he was difficult to deal with, not because he thought he would lose.
Not catching the babies was a stupid decision.
Horus thought he would take his cubs and tear the humans who threatened them into pieces and give them to the cubs as food.
It was time to rush in to catch humans with a life-threatening spirit.
Flash!
Human strength was beyond imagination. Stars seemed to shine before his eyes, and Horus was beaten to dust.
The fast flight that I was so confident in was helplessly caught up, and the claws that could pierce any hard leather were broken. And as the attack pounded my entire body, I suffered pain I had never felt before.
A terrible feeling of fear oppressed Horus.
Yes, this feeling of fear was familiar. When they were nothing more than prey, they had to fight against fear to survive.
I survived that environment, became stronger, and reached where I am today. No one could touch Horus here, and he was busy running away whenever he saw him.
Horus liked this. Trying to become stronger here was also to prepare for invasion by distant competitors.
But I had no idea that I would be trampled like this by just a mere human.
Squeak! Squeak!
Horus wanted to cheer up as the cubs cried out in sorrow, but there was nothing he could do.
For a brief moment, my entire body was pounded and all my strength was lost.
A terrifying human came forward in front of Horus, who was hanging helplessly.
“I think I’m weaker than I thought. This is a plus level? I don’t believe it. Oh, is that because my biggest advantage was taken away by me? Right. Yongyong is not something you should say.”
The human gaze that was mumbling something unintelligible turns to this place.
Those were the eyes of a predator. The predators that were targeting them used to look like that when they saw their prey. He probably felt the same way when he was targeting his prey.
I never imagined what I would face after becoming the ruler of this place.
“I will give you the right to choose.”
Kyaaaaa.
Suddenly, I couldn’t understand what this ignorant person meant.
“Obey me. “If you obey, I will spare your life.”
Are you telling yourself to obey now?
Horus’ eyes widened at the unbelievable words. He survived the fierce competition for survival and became the ruler of a region. Everyone fears and worships him.
Are you telling me to obey a mere human?
This is nonsense.
Tear him to pieces right now….
“It looks like he still has some sense of rebellion left in him. Should I gouge out one of his eyes?”
…But bending is also necessary to survive.
Horus hurriedly closed his eyes and lowered his head because it felt like his eyes would be ripped out if he answered even a little bit late.
You can exercise your pride while you are still alive.
I decided to stay alive and take my chances.
Kiyi!
“Okay, I value a guy who listens well. and.”
The human with an eerie smile stretched out his hand. Horus, unable to dare to resist, thought that the touch would solidify the master-slave relationship, so he obediently allowed it, but soon after, an eerie pain began to pound his entire body.
Wow!
“Even if you have the intention of obeying, if you turn around, your mind will change. It’s the same for both humans and monsters.”
Fear began to creep into Horus’ mind as he struggled.
This man is a monster.
Stronger, crueler, and more unstoppable than any predator he has ever seen. Even though he expressed his intention to obey, all he could do was lower his head in response to the use of his hands.
Even though the person, or rather the owner, took his hand away, the pain still persisted. Horus trembled as the power surged within him, as if he were alive.
“Can’t it apply to monsters? Well, it can’t be helped because their immune system is different from that of humans. Should I make it a little stronger?”
A little stronger?
Horus hurriedly hit his head on the floor at the sobering words.
“Hmm, I guess I got a kick out of it.”
I wanted you to know that it was like that.
Fortunately, the owner granted his wish.
I didn’t use my hands anymore.
“What you have to do is protect this place as you did.”
Horus raised his head. The owner’s request was not excessive and was just what he had been doing.
“If a separate order is given, follow it. Nothing will be difficult for you. “If you listen to me carefully.”
Horus’ eyes widened when he saw what the human had brought out.
That was a heart. The spoils of a powerful enemy that was not easy to deal with were in the hands of humans.
“Let me feed you.”
Kyaaa!
I can’t believe I can receive such generous rewards without having to risk my life.
Horus, still forgetting the pain pounding his entire body, roared and pledged his loyalty.
If the owner had paid me this reasonably, I would have sworn loyalty without any trouble.
Horus turned to the cubs. Although his dignity as the ruler and father of this area has been undermined, a new order has arrived, and he must comply with it and take the lead in order to enjoy the benefits.
Pride does not prolong life. In order to survive for a long time, you must be able to let go of your pride without hesitation.
What are you doing! Come on and get a new owner!
The cubs that waddled over to the dog after repeated urgings also roared around their new owner.
It was clearly a praise for the owner, but the owner’s expression was not very bright.
“What you’re doing seems like treacherous behavior.”
Contrary to what he said, the owner seemed satisfied.
I’m glad it didn’t hit me any further.
On that day, Horus served his human master.
* * *
The task of taming Horus was solved so easily that I thought it would be ridiculous.
Even though it’s a Plus level monster, I thought it would be quite difficult since it’s a flying monster.
The reason I found hunting easy was because I gained high-speed flight. When moving long distances, you receive a huge impact, but when moving short distances, the load on your body is bearable.
however.
[I didn’t know he was such a spineless guy. Still, if you’re the ruler of a region, don’t you have to show your spirit? uh? I am the ruler of this place! While doing so!]
Yongyong repeatedly complained about the process by which Horus obeyed.
They say I look like a traitor, but I also felt the same way.
Usually, monsters are unable to suppress their hostility towards humans and are dominated by evil stars, but Horus immediately changed his stance as if there was no such thing.
Especially at the end, when even the babies were called to praise me, it was one of the unforgettable scenes in both my last and this life.
I never thought I would live and receive praise from monsters.
[I saw that for the first time too. It was amazing.]
Yongyong said so, so it must have been an amazing sight.
Is it only possible to show monsters with developed survival instincts?
After successfully subduing Horus, I personally greeted King Ahmed, who came to Suez.
King Ahmed, who was looking at me with a happy expression, turned to the sky and then widened rapidly.
Ordinary people cannot see it, but King Ahmed, who is a superhuman, will be able to see it.
“Friend, this is….”
“Horus is that guy.”
“Huh! I thought it was impossible to tame a plus level monster even if my friend was amazing, but I never thought he would be able to accomplish this difficult task. “This is truly amazing!”
“….”
“Why is that?”
“Oh, that guy is a bit special.”
“Isn’t that what monsters are originally like?”
“I guess so.”
Actually, it was so easy that I was shocked to even think about it, so I didn’t have anything to say. I didn’t know that taming a monster would be this simple.
I changed the subject.
“But the condition of the canal looks very bad.”
“You don’t have to worry too much about that. Is it because it has been away from people for a long time? “If there is no threat, we can recover quickly.”
If that’s the case, there’s no reason for me to get more involved.
King Ahmed said that once the Suez Canal is completed, Saudi Arabia will also be able to trade in the Mediterranean using this route.
Currently, the Mediterranean Sea has been taken over by monsters, but movement is possible by moving along the coastline.
He pretended not to, but he had already calculated all the profits he would make.
“Now all we have to do is notify Mustafa. “He’s probably going crazy right now.”
King Ahmed said that Mustafa, the Egyptian president and dictator, cannot afford to worry about Suez.
So even if you say 99 to 1, you won’t be able to refute anything.
If you are dissatisfied, just use your strength to break through the monsters and come here.
Then, I heard something I couldn’t ignore.
“There is no reason to give power to those who have joined hands with the League. “I will use that as a justification.”
“Wait.”
“Why are you doing that?”
“I just heard that the Egyptian president has joined hands with the league.”
“That’s right. He came to power through a coup d’état and received help from the League to fend off challenges to him and solidify his power.”
If not for that, they would have been kicked out due to several internal rebellions.
He brought in the league to solidify his power and laid the foundation for a long-term dictatorship.
“Then he is also a villain in the league.”
I found the League’s villain and I couldn’t pass it up.
