Sagittarius Porgon.
Sagittarius Porgon.
‘killing! killing!’
I quickly swung the frost steel sword as I heard my mother’s cheerful voice saying that he was completely scared.
The sword cut through the air and landed on the neck of the man who entered the tent accurately. The hard steel blade gently cut through the man’s flesh and bone. The fallen head rolled across the floor.
Took.
Already two corpses, half-draped in the tent, collapsed. There was a muffled sound outside.
“Fuck, shit! I die as soon as I go in! Open fire!”
“Did you say there’s a fucking monster inside with its mouth open?!”
“I-I won’t go in! You go in first!”
“Don’t push! You’re a cub! I’m not going to enter!”
It’s a lot more ragtag than I expected. Were you nervous? Since it was a fairly large mercenary group, I thought it would be organized to some extent, so I was very wary.
I grabbed the part where the arm was cut off with the instep of my foot and patted the body of the groaning giant.
“Probably, if you don’t treat the wound properly right away, you’ll die soon. Just tell me who the client is and I’ll give you first aid right away. If there’s a good doctor in town, I might be able to attach the amputated arm.”
This middle-aged man was big, but he had a lot of flab in some places, and the flesh was starting to sag here and there. Judging from his physique, he may have been in a good shape in the past, but he was just an ordinary mercenary now. Now that my arm is cut off, I can’t even do one person’s part anymore.
What I really had to be wary of was the leader of this mercenary corps standing a little further away.
Strong muscles in the middle between ruggedness and nimbleness. He stared blankly at me and couldn’t do anything about it, but he was ready to fight back at any moment if I rushed at him. In addition, the armor carefully prepared in advance was an item with metal plates meticulously attached to important parts while emphasizing activity.
“Sa, Sajita! What are you doing! Hurry up and help me! I’m really dying like this! I’m dying!”
Where did the momentum that called me hyung a while ago go? Apparently, this guy didn’t even bother to answer my question.
There’s another mouth on the other side, so there’s no need to keep it alive.
I swung my froststeel sword at the man’s neck as he fell to the floor. A painless and clean death was the best mercy I could give him.
Caang!
However, my sword ricocheted off the protruding blade and failed to complete its purpose. A sharp attack followed. The spear threateningly aimed at my vital point and wriggled like a snake to burrow into it. I calmly backed away, swinging my froststeel sword to slash the blade. The spear blade bounced off my sword backed away softly as if it had no intention of aiming at me in the first place.
Before I knew it, a man called Sagittarius dug between me and the man whose arm had been cut off, brandishing a shield equipped in his left hand.
Caang!
heavy collision. My side had the upper hand, but I had no choice but to fall back once more to avoid the sharp piercing spear blade, aiming for the gap.
“I knew you would stay still.”
Maybe in your early thirties? Sagittarius, a shaggy platinum-haired man, said in a low voice as he pulled down his helmet.
“I wanted to, but since Miu and Gouna have been together for 15 years.”
After answering briefly, he shouted for the sky to leave.
“Somebody come in and take the pelguins! Now!”
But no one dared to enter the barracks in response to his cry. just buzzing outside.
“Sa, Sajita told me to come in?”
“Fuck! What if I go in and end up like the kids in front of me! I’m not going in!”
“Don’t push! You bastards! I don’t want to go in either!”
Sajita clenched her teeth and told me.
“Would you mind if I let this man go?”
I smiled softly and pulled out the butcher.
“It’s not possible.”
It was extremely foolish and foolish to show mercy to a still living enemy. Even more so now that I am alone in enemy lines. I started the butcher. The metal blades started spinning at high speed and screamed.
Why hey hey hey hey!
I jumped out of my seat and swung the Butcher at Sagittarius. He held out his shield with terrifying calm. A shield like this would tear like paper in front of a butcher.
Catch cack cack cack!
Contrary to my expectations, the Butcher couldn’t tear through Sagitta’s shield.
Is the entire shield made of frost steel?
A simple solid froststeel shield would be enough to tear apart if I was a butcher wielding it with all my might. But the reason the man’s shield wasn’t torn was because he channeled my power in the Butcher with a mysterious shield technique.
Wild sparks flew.
Sajita was not satisfied with mere defense. After shed the butcher, he aimed for my gap and slashed his spear sharply.
this man. Certainly, his fighting skills were superior to mine. But I had the physical ability to ignore such minor differences.
Step out. Using the sole of my foot as an axis, I applied force and forcibly broke the butcher’s trajectory. It was a crude move, but it contained power that could easily tear a person to pieces.
Why hey hey hey hey!
The butcher howled wildly for the flesh. Sagittarius let go of the spear he had fired without regret and stepped back. And that unhesitating action saved him. The high-speed rotating metal blade brushed past Sajita with a hair’s breadth.
Missing spears rolled across the floor. Sagittarius opened the entrance to the barracks and ran out, shouting.
“Everyone, don’t block and get out of the way!”
I chased him out of the barracks. I could see mercenaries densely surrounding the barracks. It was necessary to suppress the steam ahead of time.
Coincidentally, the butcher I was using was a perfect weapon for that role.
“Leave now!”
Ignoring Sagitta’s near-screaming cry, I swung the butcher at the nearest mercenary. The wildly rotating serrated blade tore diagonally at the mercenary who was standing in a daze.
Scattering viscera and flesh. spilling blood. The snow piled on the floor was stained with blood.
I wasn’t satisfied there. Before the mercenaries could scream, I cut through their ranks. Don’t dare shoot even if there are archers you don’t know.
Why hey hey hey hey!
The butcher cried with excitement as he took the blood and flesh. The group of mercenaries who dug in directly were much more ragtag than I expected.
Seeing that the person next to them was being torn apart, they chose to run away in a panic rather than aim for my gap.
“Shh, fuck! Get out of the way! Get out of the way!”
“Lord, I don’t want to die! I don’t want to die! Start!”
Like a wolf running into a pen with sheep, I tore through everything I came into contact with. The white priest’s clothes were once again stained with red blood and flesh.
“Get out of the way!”
The spear edge aimed at my side and dug into it. It was Sagittarius. I grabbed the upper body of the mercenary I just cut off and blocked the spear. The spear blade lodged itself in the corpse’s body. I let go of the body I caught and swung the butcher as it was.
The Butcher, who shredded the corpse and spearhead, moved forward to devour Sajita’s body once again.
He threw away the spear again. I was truly amazed at the skillful movements that thoroughly protected one’s body by treating weapons as consumables.
It’s been a while since I’ve been at this level.
Sagittarius rolled on the floor, picked up a new spear among the corpses and shouted.
“Pelguins are in my barracks! Get them now while I deal with that priest! You bastards!”
Caang!
The blade of his spear struck the butcher right in the side. This time, I didn’t forcefully twist the butcher’s trajectory. Instead, he jumped at Sajita and swung his left fist. It was a blow aimed at the chin, but after checking the trajectory of my fist, he stuck out his iron plated shoulder to block my fist.
bang!
The iron plate on his shoulder buckled, and Sajita flew through the air and landed in the snow. I raised the butcher once more. Sagittarius, who fell to the floor, quickly jumped up from his seat and shouted.
“Shoot!”
‘killing!!!’
A sharp mother’s warning. Were there real archers? It’s very difficult when an arrow gets stuck in a joint.
Due to Sagittarius and I running amok, no one was standing around me. Thanks to that, I was a perfect target to shoot.
But the arrow didn’t fly.
‘killing…?’
In the midst of the silence, I heard the voice of my mother, who was very upset. Sajita’s complexion reddened as he gritted his teeth.
“These goddamn assholes! Seriously!”
he was abandoned
The mercenaries surrounding me had already packed something worthwhile and fled far away. The archers who were waiting were probably running along with them.
I turned off the butcher’s engine and smiled.
“Are you going to do more?”
Sajita, who had been silently looking at my face, threw down the spear in her hand and let out a deep sigh.
“I will surrender. I will tell you everything, just spare my life.”
***
I accepted Sajita’s surrender because I needed a voice to tell me everything. As soon as I accepted my surrender, he showed no intention of hostile to me and walked straight into his barracks.
He confirmed to me the state of the hulking whose arm had been cut off and said in a somber voice.
“You are already dead.”
I stood a little further away and asked.
“Have you changed your mind?”
Sagitta closed the corpse’s eyes and shook her head.
“No. I wanted to grab me once and beat myself to death, but it feels weird to see that I’m really dead. Would it be all right if I buried Pelgwin?”
“It doesn’t matter if I bury you, but before that, I want you to answer my question.”
“yes.”
He slowly opened his mouth and let out everything. There, the only information I was able to get was that the organization following Dakia was ‘Ilech’.
It was unknown whether ‘Ilech’ wanted Dakia or if someone requested ‘Ilech’. After all, this mercenary corps had only been subcontracted from Ilech anyway.
Sajita, who told me everything, dug up the ground and buried the bodies of the dead mercenaries one by one. I followed him with a shovel.
“You don’t have to help.”
I replied with a smile.
“We finish faster together.”
Sagittarius muttered, ‘Together…’ and quietly started shoveling again. Finally, after cleaning up, Sajita, who was packing her things, asked me.
“Is it okay if I go?”
To be honest, I seriously thought about whether it would be better to kill him after hearing all the information, but I made up my mind when I saw him tidying up alone.
“Don’t you hate me?”
Sagittarius looked at my face and smiled.
“If I said I hate you, would you kill me?”
I smiled.
“Do I really need to let someone who hates me live?”
“You are right.”
Sajita tried to say something, but swallowed again and again. I stood quietly and waited for his answer. At the end of the wait, the abandoned mercenary leader’s mouth slowly opened.
“I’m not good with words, so it’s not easy to explain, but since mercenaries are basically killing and killing, when things go wrong, I often end up working the next day with the people who broke my colleagues’ heads yesterday. Of course, I’m not foolish enough to be friendly with them, but I won’t jump right in and break their heads.”
He rummaged through his shaggy hair several times and smiled woefully.
“So I don’t hate the priest. It’s just a little sad that things turned out this way. In addition, it was also a mercenary group that would soon fail anyway.”
“What are you going to do in the future?”
“I don’t know. Jira, who has been alone for the first time in 15 years, is at a loss. Well, the only thing I know how to do is to fight, so I wonder if I’ll end up working as a mercenary again.” ”
Then , how about taking this opportunity to meet a new employer who pays a lot?”
“Yes?”
It seemed uncharacteristically naive.
***
‘Killed!’ Following my mother’s request not to forget to harvest the corpses, I told
Sagittarius that I would pray for the dead for a moment and then harvested the
divinity
.
I saw Dakia walking away. It was a bit late for breakfast, but seeing Carmen out of sight, it seemed that Carmen ate breakfast alone first and then Dakia, who woke up later, was eating separately. She was chewing bread with a blank face
. I opened my eyes wide in amazement when I saw it.
My priest’s clothes turned white on their own under the protection of Yuji, but my hair and face were covered with the blood and flesh of the dead who had not yet been cleaned. “Oops
! “
Dakia tried to shout something, but soon the bread she was eating got stuck in her throat, and she sighed for a while, then swallowed the water and then finally spoke out
. ?!”
“Would it be all right if I washed up and explained the details? I’ve been able to sort it out for now.”
She stared at my face and nodded.
“Okay. By the way, who is the person in the back…?”
I pointed and laughed at Sajita, who was standing awkwardly behind me like someone else’s cat.
“Princess Princess. Are you thinking of hiring a mercenary for a fight?”
