Chapter 132: Close Call 1

Translator: - - Editor: - -

The ten-second period was a short time, the shortest, but at that point, it was all the time in the world for Junhyuk.

He had decided to kill Regina. She had already used her ultimate, and he had dealt some damage to her with his Spatial Slash. After the time passed, he would be able to use the Spatial Slash again.

Junhyuk turned around and swung his sword at her, but Regina blocked it with her cutlass. This time, he had swung the Blood Rune Sword, and a blood-colored shockwave spread out with her as the focus point.

She was already mixed in with the riflemen. With her as the center, the shockwave covered a ten-meter radius and swept through the riflemen. The damage dealt was enough to kill them in one hit. Even with him only dealing half damage, the blow wasn’t something a rifleman could withstand.

The minions were dead. Inside the circle, only Regina, Doctor Tula, Adolphe and Bater remained.

Junhyuk learned one more thing when he attacked Regina. Regina herself could block his strike, but with her as the center, the shockwave generated couldn’t be blocked by the others. Doctor Tula and Adolphe had received damage, and he learned all he had to do from the damage they had received. Suddenly, he swung both of his swords like a whirlwind.

Regina blocked his strikes easily. Junhyuk had been to the Dimensional Battlefield constantly risking his life swinging his swords, but Regina was a natural born hero. It had been very easy for her to block all of his attacks with her cutlass. However, the people next to her continued to be affected by the shockwaves and receive damage. Then, the others finally retreated.

Regina also retreated, and Junhyuk gave up on killing her for the moment. Previously, Junhyuk had jumped down from the castle wall without hesitation because he could return by teleportation. He wouldn’t follow her now because he couldn’t kill her. If he followed her it would mean dying like a dog on the street.

He turned around and saw Bater with a smile on his face. His fists were pointing straight at Junhyuk.

Junhyuk saw him, gritted his teeth and ran toward his assailant, but Bater laughed and fired the rocket punches.

Boom!

Junhyuk had the force field around him and wasn’t hurt, but the rocket punches pushed the force field backward very far with him still inside, and he thought once again that Bater was a hard opponent to deal with.

Two seconds remained, and he was twenty meters away from the wall.

Junhyuk ran to the wall, but Bater had made up his mind and rushed after him. Junhyuk knew he couldn’t teleport because he would fall short of the wall, but he couldn’t allow himself to be rushed and pushed farther back. He teleported.

He passed Bater and appeared close to the wall but still seven meters from the castle itself, and the force field disappeared.

From behind him, Regina fired continuously. Junhyuk didn’t turn around and used his jump skill instead. When he made it to the top, he turned to look at his enemies.

Bater wasn’t expecting him to escape and clicked his tongue. They all looked at him once and turned around. Even for heroes with high health, the buffed archers’ attacks were too much to withstand. The rest of the riflemen were being massacred by the archers.

They shouldn’t have rushed in the first place. Junhyuk had jumped down and attacked Regina, and his attacks had already killed most of the riflemen. The allied minions raised their shields and swung their swords to survive, and the archers gave them support. Most of the riflemen were dead. They had gotten too close to the archers and wouldn’t survive. action

Junhyuk stopped looking at the dying riflemen. The heroes had distanced themselves from the archers, but now they were running toward the castle again and wouldn’t leave Junhyuk in peace so that he’d be able to use his power again.

Junhyuk looked at them coming and raised his sword. He might use Spatial Slash again, so once the heroes saw him raising the sword, they dispersed instinctively.

He laughed hard. The heroes knew the attack was coming, but they still couldn’t escape it. That was the power of the Spatial Slash. They couldn’t run forever.

Junhyuk wanted to kill Regina. She was applying pressure to her neck, and he wanted to attack the same spot. He was staring at her, and Regina retreated. If someone stepped in for her and attacked Junhyuk to give her cover, she thought she could kill him.

The Spatial Slash dealt a lot of damage. It traveled through the empty space and delivered a critical hit. It couldn’t be blocked and it was hard to dodge. She couldn’t risk her life on her own, so she retreated quickly, and Junhyuk decided on his next target.

He wanted to pick someone who had a long range attack and chose Doctor Tula. The doctor was already bleeding heavily from his neck and the injuries he suffered from the shockwaves. The shockwaves had killed riflemen by the truckload, but Doctor Tula was still alive.

Junhyuk’s Spatial Slash was a very strong power, but he couldn’t kill a hero with one strike, at least not yet. However, Doctor Tula suddenly stopped in his tracks.

He was holding his neck and retreated, and Regina took his place. Her presence made Junhyuk frown.

He had to attack the enemy to buff the archers, but he had already used his powers. He used the force field and the teleportation and was left with nothing to do from his position.

Regina aimed her pistol at him, and Junhyuk breathed in deeply while staring down the barrel of her gun. She had also used all of her powers, and her attacks were powerful, but not as powerful as Killa’s.

Bang!

Regina fired, and Junhyuk raised his sword. He blocked the bullet with it, but the bullet ricocheted and hit him on the shoulder. Even though he was wearing armor, the bullet went through. If it had bounced off in a different direction, he could’ve been hit on the head.

Junhyuk understood he had put himself in an unusually dangerous position, but he had made an attack, and the archers got the buff and focused on Regina. She frowned and retreated again. Junhyuk had pushed her back, but he couldn’t relax yet.

Bater was pounding on the gate again, but he would crash through it soon.

Junhyuk stayed with the archers. The gate was destroyed, and Junhyuk retreated with them. It was time to give up the gate.

Junhyuk went up to the gigantic golems and stood there, holding his sword. The golems were quiet, but when the enemies entered the castle, the golems would go berserk.

He thought he could kill Regina by himself. If there were three attacking at once, Junhyuk could certainly die, but Regina and Doctor Tula had lost a lot of health. He could kill either of them to dwindle their numbers.

He waited while standing next to the golems. The gate crumbled, and the enemies entered the castle. Bater, Regina, Doctor Tula and Adolphe walked in and cut down every remaining archer.

They walked slowly and with fifty riflemen still following behind them. Having lost so many already, that was it for their numbers. However, there were no more minions to defend the castle. Only Junhyuk remained with one golem to his right and another to his left.

The riflemen rushed in. They had already lost their ability to reason because of the item, but they attracted the golems

Junhyuk observed the enemy. The heroes were waiting for the riflemen to get closer to the golems, and he understood the cards they were holding.

The previous time, Regina hadn’t used an item to make the riflemen go berserk, but now they were rushing toward the golems all crazed. Even if the heroes had used the item to make them fight against the archers, the effect persisted.

Junhyuk stood between the two golems because he didn’t want to stand within the range of the enemy. Then, he looked at the heroes with long range attacks and stepped forward again, swing his swords at the riflemen.

With every strike, shockwaves boomed out of the center and swept through the riflemen. It all happened quickly.

Adolphe tried to help the riflemen, but it was already over. He swung his saw blade sword, but Junhyuk didn’t block him. If he tried, Adolphe could paralyze him, spelling his doom. Junhyuk teleported instead and stood between the golems again. Adolphe stopped, and the golems started kicking.

Boom!

The heroes had to be careful with them. They were a lot more powerful than all of them. Adolphe got hit by the two golems, being sent far away while vomiting blood, and Junhyuk smiled.

His Spacial Slash would be able to kill Adolphe now. After the golems damaged him, the Spacial Slash would kill him for sure, but Junhyuk wanted to save his power. He didn’t want Adolphe dead yet.

Bater approached, rushing past the golems, and slammed his fist on the ground, hard.

Bam! Bam! Bam!

Twenty-meter shockwaves stretched out from where his fist hit the ground, but Junhyuk had already been running away before Bater struck for the first time. He had been able to escape, but he saw that the two golems had gotten separated.

Between them, he saw Doctor Tula running toward him. Regina was ten meters behind, following him.

Junhyuk knew how dangerous they were and raised the Blood Rune Sword. Soon, Doctor Tula started bleeding again, and a shockwave spread out with him as the center of it.

Junhyuk had thought he could kill him, but Doctor Tula was still alive. He still had a lot of health left in him and shot the spider web at Junhyuk, but Junhyuk teleported to escape, heading to the area inside the castle’s force field.

Regina clicked her tongue and said, "Kill him before he uses his power again!"

They wanted to kill him before he could use the Spatial Slash again. Meanwhile, she attacked the two golems. Regina could deal with them alone.

She also had Bater, Doctor Tula and Adolphe with her. Doctor Tula had lost some health and retreated, but he was capable of long range attacks. Bater dealt with one golem, and Regina was firing her pistol at the golem standing behind Bater. They were keeping the golems separate.

When a golem got close, they used their powers and attacked only that one. Soon, they killed one golem and just the other remained.

Junhyuk felt he would be able to use the Spatial Slash at any moment, but he didn’t want to step in front of the heroes. It had been dangerous before, and now only one golem remained.

"We are losing," he murmured nervously.

The remaining golem didn’t have much time left in him. The battle wasn’t over yet, and it looked like allies would lose after all. Suddenly, Junhyuk heard a familiar voice.

"Why should we lose?"

He turned around and saw Artlan and Halo standing there.

"What happened?"

"We died and revived."

"What?"

Artlan’s smile told him not to worry.

"The enemy heroes are all dead. We will win."

Artlan and Halo ran out of the force field. Junhyuk felt no need to stay behind and followed them, using the Spatial Slash again.
