Episode 82
.
Seiji arrives at the place Sakura called. However, Sakura, who was said to have been injured, was nowhere to be seen.
“Cherry Blossom? where are you?”
Sage turns her head to check her surroundings.
Wedge liquid!!
At that time, an arrow flew aiming at Seiji’s head from somewhere.
“Wow!!”
Dig!
Seiji quickly lowered his head to avoid the arrow. Arrows darting past overhead. If it was not avoided, the result was obvious.
Seiji looked in the direction the arrow had come from. Standing there was Sakura with an expressionless face.
“Are you… sasakura?”
Seiji’s voice trembled at the unexpected development. However, Sakura did not mind and reloaded the arrow into the string.
Paaang!!
An arrow shot with the power of the wind at great speed. Sakura looked at the arrow and murmured softly.
“Scatter.”
The single arrow turned green and split into dozens of branches. A number that is simply impossible to knock out. However, the opponent was Seiji, the winner of the preliminary round.
“Cherry Blossom! why!?”
Sage questioned and hit the floor with her foot. A wall of shadow rose from the ground.
Goo Goo!
Countless arrows of wind stuck in the shadow wall. Sakura repeated one thing like an emotionless doll.
“Intruders… kill. I have to… kill you for my master’s sake. With my hands somehow…”
Sakura loaded mana into her hand.
Hwaaaak!!
At the same time, a gust of wind rises around. Sakura’s cherry blossom-colored hair fluttered beautifully and her school uniform fluttered vigorously.
“Zephyros.”
It was only then that Seiji knew what Sakura was saying.
‘Obviously… being manipulated! hypnosis? Or is it a hallucination!?’
[Zephyros] is the skill with the highest killing power among all of Sakura’s skills. Sakura always cherished it as a trump card. That’s why Sakura didn’t use [Zephyros] unless her life was in danger.
However, the current Sakura was using that technique against Seiji.
Hwaaak! Wedge love!!
A murderous gust of wind revolving around Sakura tore everything around it like a blender.
A high-pitched sound that makes your head dizzy.
Seiji covered herself with her own shadow.
‘If I fall too…’
Seiji clenched his fists. Party member Sakura is being manipulated. If he is knocked down, the chance to attack is infinitely far away. In the worst case, the safety of Seiji and Sakura could not be guaranteed.
[Only!No.1!: Help me]
Seiji hurriedly left a message in her pocket. A short word to ask for help. I couldn’t leave any more messages to the power of [Zephyros] coming from outside.
Awesome!!
Seiji’s shadow being torn apart by Sakura’s wind.
‘At this rate…’
Seiji endured by biting her lips. His body reacted with a sudden burst of mana, but he couldn’t help it.
Hwaaak!
Sakura’s gust of wind gradually stops.
Seiji walked out of the shadows in an exhausted state.
“…It was really dangerous. Cherry Blossom.”
Seiji catches his breath, and instead of answering, Sakura aims her bow.
Fain!
Sakura’s arrows were so fast that they couldn’t even chase them with their body vision. It was all thanks to the power of the wind that allowed the arrow to dwell. But Sage’s shadow caught the arrow.
“Please rest for a while.”
Saying that, Seiji stretched out his hand. A shadow soaring from the floor bound Sakura’s limbs.
“Ugh! big! Let go of this!”
Sakura, who reveals this and rebels wildly. It was also quite different from his usual appearance.
‘…Is this also a trick of a succubus?’
Seiji was worried about Sakura, a member of the party, even when he was attacked.
‘how should. Can I bring Sakura back to normal?’
Sakura bared her teeth like a ferocious wild dog and bit the shadow. Seiji felt guilty for Sakura’s meaningless outbursts.
‘As expected, the 5th level dungeon… was too much?’
Now that this is the case, there is no choice but to defeat the succubus somehow. Seiji burned his will again, befitting his hot-blooded personality.
‘But once the Korean team arrives! There will definitely be a solution.”
But the opponent is a 5th grade boss with intelligence. He did not wait for Seiji’s operation.
“…you mean tied up? Whoops, it’s not easy.”
Boooooong-!
The succubus appeared from behind and struck Sage with a scythe. If Sakura had been retired, the shadow could have been retrieved. Sage didn’t do that. That poor choice ultimately decided the victory or defeat.
Chow ah!
Blood gushing from his back like a fountain.
“Kuh-!”
Seiji belatedly stepped back.
Even Sakura, who had been bound, was released, and the situation was hopeless for anyone to see.
“…Can’t you hurt your comrades too?”
The succubus smiled merrily at the bleeding sage.
“You are foolish. Whoops! don’t worry. You will soon become a cute doll like that child…”
Let the succubus spin the scythe once in place. A scythe that turns into a whip. The succubus gave a relaxed smile and whipped Sage.
“It will change!
Whiririk!
The whip aimed at Seiji’s wrist.
The succubus intended to restrain Sage’s actions by wrapping her whip around it. If he succeeds, he will surely be able to finish it off with Sakura’s arrow.
Kwak!
“Keugh!”
The pain of a broken wrist.
Seiji was grabbed by the wrist by the succubus’ whip. the problem is next. The succubus used mana drain as a whip.
Mana flowing from Seiji’s body to the succubus riding a whip. The succubus bit his lip and made an ecstatic expression.
“Ah ha ha… I can feel it. Yes mana…. I get it. okay. Really noble… upright… that type of kid?”
A pair of wings grew from the succubus’ waist. Proof that her condition is at its peak. On the other hand, Seiji, who sucked mana, was in the worst condition.
“…Cherry Blossom!”
Even when Seiji calls, Sakura still looks at her with an expressionless face. The succubus glanced at Sakura and Seiji alternately with slow gazes.
“It was so easy to control him. Kids who pretend to be strong on the outside are actually weaker than anyone else on the inside. Even if you shake it for a moment… Hehe, you know?”
But even in such a hopeless situation, Seiji’s eyes shone.
“…None of my party members are weak.”
Seiji muttered that while glaring at the succubus with sparkling eyes and shouting vigorously.
“Even if it shakes and falls. We rise again to the end! That is our mindset as hunters!”
The succubus simply laughed coldly.
“don’t worry. Even if you don’t bark so hard. As for your integrity, I’ll take it easy… and taint it all.”
As the succubus signaled with her index finger, Sakura loaded an arrow into her string. A situation where your arms were tied and your mana was taken away. No matter how old he was, he couldn’t avoid it anymore.
Paang!!
The arrows poured down with the power of the wind reached right in front of Seiji’s nose. an imminent situation. However, the black flash fired from the entrance snatched the arrow.
“you!”
The succubus narrowed her fine eyebrows and glared at her opponent. Standing at the end of the line of sight is Shin Yuseong wearing a black dragon robe and emitting black mana.
Seiji spoke to Shin Yoo-seong in an urgent voice.
“Shin Yuseong! Right now, Sakura is being manipulated!”
“doesn’t care.”
Tsutsutsut!
Shin Yuseong radiated black energy from his body and then disappeared in an instant.
fault!
In an instant, Shin Yoo-seong appeared from behind the succubus.
Quaang!
With a dull sound, the succubus fell backwards.
“Kyaaaagh! I am my henchman! hurry! hurry! Shoot your bow!”
A succubus screaming loudly while pinned to a wall. Let’s try to aim the protest at Shin Yoo-seong with Sakura’s blank eyes. Seiji stopped Sakura.
“stop! Cherry Blossom!”
Seiji grabs Sakura’s right hand. Sakura growled, showing her teeth.
“Let go!!”
Seiji still grabbed Sakura’s right hand and wouldn’t let go. Sakura let out a scream at the thought of not obeying the succubus’ orders.
“Leave this!!”
After screaming madly, Sakura grabs the arrow with her left hand and swings it. Seiji caught the arrow with his bare hands again.
rumble.
Although his hands were bleeding and his body lacking mana, his mind was hazy. Sage was adamant.
“No, Sakura! No matter what you do, I will never let you go!”
Seiji’s words made Sakura pause for a moment. Seiji looked at Sakura and smiled.
“Even if you forget me. Even if you attack. even if you betray No matter what the circumstances, you and Isshin are my party members.”
Sakura continued to stop moving at Seiji’s story. Perhaps Sakura was still fighting the brainwashing of the succubus.
“Let this go… I…”
“No, I have already decided. Together with you, I will go beyond Japan and become the top of the world.”
Seiji laughed like an idiot and continued talking while looking directly at Sakura.
“So no matter what happens, I won’t let go of this hand.”
Sakura stopped moving at Seiji’s story. In the meantime, Shin Yuseong tried to completely end the succubus.
Tsutsutsut!
“…This is the end.”
When the black aura that shook Shin Yoo-seong’s body gathered in his hand, Shin Yoo-seong stretched out his hand in a simple motion. A brief moment of
silence
created by the black dragon’s energy swallowing everything around it.
Kwaaaaang!!
The explosion that followed immediately filled the castle of dreams.
