Helmut
Episode 18
“Oh my…”
Erugo’s face, who was glaring at the back, distorted for an instant.
Since his true identity was revealed, few people have treated the warlock Erugo that way.
Fear hate hate. The subject of all kinds of extreme emotions, he enjoyed his presence and influence in the eyes of people pouring on him.
I can’t believe he’s being ignored like this!
‘It’s been a long time since I felt this feeling!’
Is it really the teacher and the disciple? Lastly, it is the same attitude that Darian showed.
A thick boiling heat surged from inside my stomach. Erugo knew the identity of the emotion that was encroaching on him.
Feeling defeated!
“How dare you young man!”
It was an unwavering gaze. Unlike the breathing corpses that litter this town, they are full of vitality and confidence. Calmness without arrogance.
That boy will become an outstanding swordsman who will inherit Darian’s reputation. The seed of darkness within him was only a tiny shadow of the light within him.
Erugo realized that it was not the boy that he lusted after, but his essence.
That’s something Erugo can never have.
The evil warlock suddenly remembered. The moment when he, who studied under the strongest swordsman in the Forest of Pahe, was standing in the dazzling sun outside.
A young blood full of talent who will go beyond what he could not see as he rotted to death in the forest of Pahe.
The future in the outside world unfolds before you!
“Keuuuuu!”
It was unbearably stomach-churning.
“Do you think you can do that!”
I can’t leave it alone. A vicious darkness engulfed him. You will not succeed and you will die. I know it won’t come true.
But Erugo wanted to completely destroy that possibility. That possibility is as slim as the goodness left in the forest of Pahe. I can endure anything for that.
Erugo chuckled. He committed an act of insanity and was banished to the Forest of Pahe.
‘If I do something crazy one more time, it’ll just be one more stain on my life!’
In response to the heightened emotions of anger and jealousy, the blocked magical energy forced its way out of his body.
The blood vessels in my entire body were twisted and the veins on my face were bulging.
“Offuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuck.”
Even though he was moaning in pain, he finally called out. Deep in the earth, his master fell into a deep sleep for the first time in a long time!
“Naho! “Get up!”
The two-headed snake, the ruler of this realm, was forcibly awakened from its sleep.
The feeling of an angry snake is conveyed along with the terrifying magical energy. A nervous shout rang out.
-Erugo! What woke me up?
-If you woke me up for something useless, I will crush you whole!
“Rejoice! Darian is dead. And his disciple is here!”
Naho burst out laughing sharply. The raised tone, like a teaching voice, gave an idea of his excited mood.
The huge snake began to chirp and move.
-Gggggggggg.
“Go quickly!”
Erugo distorted his face and laughed. The magical energy in my entire body was twisted and a tremendous blow spread throughout my body. The bowl was damaged and I felt the magic escaping like grains of sand.
It was in a worse state than when it first fell into the Forest of Pahe.
But it doesn’t matter.
“Nothing is free in this world! “Did you think you could get something from me so easily?”
Erugo coughed up blood and laughed. The price for taking the record will be your life!
Helmut was running. As I left Erugo’s place, my legs, which had become faster, were now moving as if grazing the floor.
An ominous premonition covered him as black as a dark cloud.
Kyaaaaaaa!
With a scream, the monsters rushed like crazy and passed over his head.
I’m not trying to attack him. They were terrified!
Those guys who were wandering around Naho’s territory and boldly hunting humans are running away without hesitation.
The meaning is one. Naho woke up from hibernation!
‘I guess I should have killed him as expected.’
Helmut’s eyes turned cold. Ignore Darian’s words.
But it was too late to regret. The urgent priority now is to get out of here.
No matter how fast you move, your body will be sluggish as it has just woken up from hibernation. Now I have no choice but to run.
How long did it run? The monsters ahead had already left the territory and disappeared without a trace. There is no sound. For the first time, I envied their fast legs.
The forest, where only the sound of the wind could be heard, was immersed in silence, forgetting even the sound of insects.
It is an unnatural phenomenon. Silence holding one’s breath in fear.
My instincts were on edge. The skin all over my body was tingling with tension.
Death was near.
Before I knew it, the demonic energy surrounding all directions was as thick as an abyss. So much so that I can’t tell where the source of the demon energy is.
―Doo doo doo doo doo!
There was a tremor in the ground from far away. The ground beneath our feet shook like waves spreading, and we got closer in an instant.
The gray fog that had rolled in nearby was so thick that it was breathtaking.
Helmut stopped his legs. The boundary of the territory was far away.
‘Is this the end?’
In the end, I couldn’t escape Naho’s territory.
A chill appeared on my heated body. The kick felt like it was biting my flesh.
-Srurr.
It was a low, eerie sound, like hair grazing the floor.
Something was approaching in the gray fog.
Two pairs of eyes as bright as brimstone flames floated like ghosts. A two-headed snake approached with an ominous aura, revealing its terrifying form in the fog.
-Hello, kid. It’s been a while since we’ve been here?
-You’ve grown a lot now. Humans grow quickly.
Despite his friendly tone, his appearance is so vicious that it turns anyone who witnesses it into stone. The two identical heads smiled in satisfaction.
-I knew you would show up in my territory again someday, child.
-Did you think you could get away easily?
-This is a customer who has been waiting so desperately, but I can’t let him go easily!
“Then I can just kill you.”
Helmut spoke confidently. It’s a bluff. But my heart became strong.
Helmut is not the child he used to be who trembled at the sight of Naho. He was a trained swordsman who learned how to deal with his enemies!
However, it was also true that he, who was just a child, felt insignificant to Naho. The two-headed snake laughed, its throat trembling.
-Yes, your liver is bigger than before.
-Fragile human being. What can you do with that small body?
-Your flesh looks chewy. It will taste different.
-It’s a shame that Darian died, but don’t worry. You too will soon follow him!
-Come inside my belly, honey!
The two maws opened wide. A huge body flew in at the speed of a rock falling.
-Quarrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!
There was a crash like a meteorite falling, accompanied by a loud noise. A thick layer of dust obscured the view from the collapsed forest.
Helmut quickly jumped to the side, rolled several times on the floor, and stood upright.
‘Where is Naho?’
Helmut quickly tried to look around through the dust. My ears are tingling, as if binge drinking has burst my eardrums. Every part of my body felt sore because of the flying debris.
‘Where is it?’
Blurred vision, darkened sensation. Helmut looked everywhere.
Grrrr. You can hear the subtle sound of scales scraping the floor. Naho was moving.
However, in the atmosphere filled with demonic energy, it was difficult to find the main body with just senses.
‘First secure the watch.’
Helmut moved quickly in the direction where the dust settled. But it soon stopped.
‘This.’
A wall with a metallic luster was blocking the way. The moment I realized that the gray and black wall was moving, a shiver ran down my spine.
My vision returned as if on fire. The wall surrounds him, spinning around in layers and gradually narrowing!
It was in the middle of Naho’s bunk!
Two eyes as bright as brimstone were looking down at Helmut from above like the sun.
Poisonous liquid dripped from its open mouth and through its teeth. A huge amount of acidic poison fell next to Helmut and burned to the ground.
-Okay, where can I run away?
-Try struggling!
The man’s laughter rang out eerily. There is nowhere to run. If you jump upwards, you will head to Naho’s mouth.
It was a perfectly poisoned rat!
‘If it stays like this, the scope of action will become narrower.’
Snakes coil around their prey, crush it, and swallow it in one bite.
Helmut is so small compared to Naho’s body that it would be impossible to squeeze it, but crushing it would be enough. Because there is no place to escape anyway.
Helmut calmly gazed at Naho’s head, which was looking down at him from a mountain-like height with satisfaction.
The face of a vicious snake confident of victory.
The strong pulse pounding along my veins awakened my concentration.
‘It won’t go your way.’
If you are someone who looks down on you, you will definitely find an opportunity. That gap will provide an opportunity for a counterattack.
Naho doesn’t know, looking down on Helmut as a child who was shaking like he was the last time he saw him. The changes that have happened to him so far.
What kind of being is a swordsman who embodies Vis?
‘now!’
Helmut flew like a flash of light. Nahora, the absolute ruler of this realm, was the light that cut through the sun.
Naho was not embarrassed and opened his two mouths wide. No matter where you jump, this prey will crawl all the way down your throat!
But it was fast. It wasn’t the human movement Naho had thought it would be.
If there are two heads, there is a gap between them. Helmut squeezed his body into the gap and jumped up, kicking his feet wherever he could.
-no?
The moment the two heads faced each other, Helmut was in the middle of two pairs of eyes. Powerful demon energy was strengthening his body.
But all animals have the same weaknesses. eye!
Before I knew it, I had a sword in my hand. Vis exploded out from the center of the body.
Helmut flew his sword sideways and cut down!
-Knock!
It felt like cutting through a rock. My hands ached.
With no time to check his condition, Helmut jumped towards the floor.
‘I cut it properly.’
The feeling I felt in this hand. I can say for sure.
-Kaaaaaaaaaa!
One head screamed sharply and writhed.
The struggle was so severe that the other head was unable to control its body and was shaking from side to side.
-stop! He’s running away!
-It hurts, it hurts! I can’t see!
chin. Helmut avoided Naho and went down to the ground.
The pain came back later. Fresh blood was flowing from the stone-dusted body.
But my mind was surprisingly clear. When I concentrated as much as I could, I woke up clearly, as if I had taken a stimulant.
