Helmut Episode

248

The Black Wing Knight Commander, who had been quietly listening, came forward.

“Let him do whatever he wants. “You can think of it as looking ahead.”

An excellent swordsman can compare his opponent’s skills.

Although he did not show it openly, Helmut was an unusually talented person.

It would not be my intention to discover and harm the Archduke first.

Above all, Helmut resembles the Archduke very much, even in the eyes of a knight commander. So much so that I suspected that they might be of the same blood.

The situation is like this, so I just can’t talk about it.

When Alonso said that, Charlotte eventually showed an expression of understanding.

Since I was a guest, I tried to take as little risk as possible, but now was not the time to consider such things.

All possible means had to be mobilized.

She spoke to Helmut impatiently.

“I don’t want my senior to get caught up in this incident and end up in danger. Please be careful.”

In any case, the decision-maker here was she, Rinosa’s bloodline.

Charlotte hesitated slightly and added firmly.

“And if possible, please save His Highness.”

It was a truly young request. Helmut nodded slowly.

“okay.”

Helmut left the place immediately.

The soldiers following him also dispersed into the now cloudy fog.

They would maintain a tight communication network to search for the locations of monsters and archdukes.

Charlotte also moved with the Black Wing Knight Commander.

Hoping to quickly secure the Archduke’s safety.

*

It was in the mountains. How much time has passed?

As the fog cleared and the four seasons became clear, he, who was hiding himself in a hollow old tree, moved cautiously.

My heart tightened with tension.

‘Support must have gradually come from Linosa.’

Although he was a member of the Black Wing Knights, he did not fight against monsters, nor did he serve the Archduke.

He was the one who split off and ran away to divert attention.

In the meantime, I also became separated from my colleagues. He was one of the five who ran away and the only one who did not return to the main unit.

Being alone in this thick fog, in the mountains full of monsters that tear apart the bodies of your companions, is an extremely terrifying thing.

It’s as if you’re wrapped in pitch black darkness where you can’t even see an inch in front of you.

It wasn’t because he wanted to or because he ran away to survive. It just happened to be like this.

The reason he was unable to escape from here and move toward the main force was not because he was particularly a coward.

Vis is the power of spirit. If you become a member of the Black Wing Knights, you are also strong enough to withstand fear.

‘I can’t guess the direction.’

The other four people who returned had a particularly good sense of direction, not that he was particularly bad.

He realized that he would not be able to find his bearings in this fog.

If a monster were to pursue him, he might die. So he chose to hide himself.

I couldn’t just sit there like that, so it was time to move.

The safety of the Archduke and the fate of his colleagues were now out of his hands.

‘Is it this way?’

The day was bright and the fog had cleared a bit, so I was able to determine the direction based on the position of the sun.

He moved nimbly.

Unfortunately, his movements were caught shortly afterwards.

“Crumbling.”

A low growl coming from the darkness. A growl full of demonic energy sent goosebumps up my limbs.

This is my first experience as a member of the Black Wing Knights, having been a hunter my entire life.

He was now the hunted and the enemy was the hunter.

A cruel and quick hunter.

An absolutely strong enemy was targeting him.

What that meant was inevitable death.

A fear welled up that felt like my heart was going to fail. He saw the man’s hand piercing his colleague’s body before running away. The hand filled with his demonic energy could even break the sword.

I’m alone against a guy like that.

“Krrrrrrr.”

The sound and presence became closer at the same time. I couldn’t tell if it was on the trees or on the ground. It was just coming this way as if the wind was passing by.

‘Damn it!’

He kicked the floor with his frozen legs. I can’t die obediently like this. never.

What consumed him at that moment was fear.

And then the hunting began.

*

It was around the same time. A decision was being made even in the hideout where he had taken refuge with the Archduke.

“be careful. You have to move and kill as much as possible. “If you catch his attention.”

“I know.”

“I hope nothing happens to you here either. “Let’s block the entrance to the hideout as we leave.”

“We must inform the headquarters of His Highness’s location.”

Small but solemn voices were exchanged. The Archduke’s condition was getting worse.

The Archduke is also a swordsman who deals with Vis. It’s a shame because he has a strong body, otherwise he would already be going between life and death.

It’s not immediate, but if you leave it like this, it will become serious. I needed treatment.

It was impossible to just endure in the mountains full of cold and little food.

No matter what happened, I had to move immediately.

“If time passes and we don’t come back then.”

“I will decide then whether I will accompany the Archduke or move on my own.”

The one who decided to remain alone answered thoughtfully.

The slowest one decided to stay here.

The other two will move in different directions and head to the main base.

The reason one person remained was to protect the Archduke.

Monsters were a problem, but it was also possible that other beasts could crawl in here and harm the unconscious Archduke.

“Okay then.”

It was a path I had to take, not knowing whether I would live or die.

The two people got up and immediately left the hiding place.

The rest had to wait in the silent hideout.

*

Every time I took a step, I felt a thick demonic energy.

It was now even thicker than the cloudy fog.

Helmut frowned.

‘It’s not that bad. ‘It’s not for nothing that seven members of the Black Wing Knights died.’

I hoped it would happen, but I think I might encounter a monster that could take over its territory in the forest of Pahe.

It may not be Elaga or Naho level, but it is a truly powerful monster.

‘I said it was close to a humanoid.’

Before setting off, Helmut listened to the testimony of survivors. About a monster that appeared out of nowhere.

They said it had an almost human-like shape and was about the size of a sturdy adult man.

It was a fact that made me tilt my head.

Magi inflates the size of the body. Because power basically comes from weight and size.

Because demon energy is a force that enhances the power itself, it is developed from the source, the body.

Whether in the forest of Pahe or outside, the strong monsters were large in size. It is rare to find someone who violates that law.

‘Well, sometimes there can be small ones too.’

Helmut shook his head. That doesn’t mean he knew about all the monsters in Pahe’s Forest. One thing is only certain.

‘I can’t guarantee that I’m an opponent worth beating.’

Helmut was a man who had never lost in the human world. Of course it was easy to think that he would win.

What’s more, isn’t the opponent a monster? Beating down monsters was Helmut’s specialty.

But Helmut did not underestimate his opponent.

Because both reason and instinct were telling us how strong the enemy was.

Sensation as if the skin is freezing. The tension is rising.

I didn’t get this feeling even when dealing with the Knight Commander of Palma.

‘It’s been so long that it feels unfamiliar.’

Helmut frowned. Helmut himself cannot guarantee victory if he faces 15 Black Wing Knights.

However, the monster faced 15 people and struck the archduke, killing 7 and forcing the rest to flee.

According to testimony, it was said that its movements were very fast.

So, when it appeared out of nowhere and attacked the Archduke, they couldn’t stop it right away.

‘He’s strong, but he’s also fast.’

A memory from before came to mind. When I was assigned a convoy mission to follow the Faith mercenaries through a forest full of monsters.

The boss monster there was also quite strong.

The strongest monster Helmut ever faced in the human world was the monkey monster he met there.

However, the demonic energy was quite strong there at that time, but not to this extent.

Even though there were quite a few monsters there.

‘I don’t know what kind of monster it is, but its small steps are filled with demonic energy.’

A monster that naturally emits demonic energy should not be fought against, regardless of its strength.

Although he was purified while fighting with a priest and the size of the sprout of darkness was reduced, Helmut had to stay away from the demonic energy.

Even more so now that I met my mother.

Somehow, a corner of my heart stirs. As if the sprouts of darkness were reacting to demon energy. Helmut was getting closer.

I just knew.

‘The smell of blood.’

Helmut put his hand to his sword. The sword drawn from the waist emits a cool light.

It is a monster with explosive speed. You never know when or where it will attack you. It was impossible to let down one’s guard.

A strong scent of blood was wafting from the other side.

The vivid smell of blood, as if it had just been exposed to the air through flesh.

It approaches as if it can be caught beyond the fog. My senses have never been this sensitive.

Helmut had moved according to his senses. To a place where the demon energy becomes thicker.

Thanks to that, I found the right place. There was something there.

‘It’s a guy.’

If you cannot deal with it alone, it is right to mobilize troops.

Helmut now knew about humans’ fighting methods. But shouldn’t we at least check what it looks like?

‘The person who died may be the Archduke or a member of the Black Wing Knights.’

There is no use running if the smell of blood is this strong.

Helmut walked at a pace that was neither slow nor fast. The fog is now noticeably cloudier than before.

And finally I saw something. The smell of blood, like the fishy smell of iron, is repulsive.

The thing crouching with its back turned was not aware of Helmut.

The guy’s back kept shaking. Boom, boom, boom. Drops of blood flew into the air.

Helmut was soon able to clearly see a cruel scene with his own eyes.

It was a sight that would have made a normal human being scream and collapse.

It was chewing the bones of a man’s dismembered body.

What was placed next to the guy’s feet was the half-remaining head of a member of the Black Wing Knights. Fear was clearly evident in the remaining half soaked in blood.

He would have been killed in hellish horror. I can’t even resist properly.
