Chapter 198: Thanks To You 2
Translator: - - Editor: - -
Junhyuk had his hand on Gongon’s head and said, "Wait for Lugos to come out. We’ll go and destroy the castle’s force field in the meantime."
He and Gongon moved to the side and started pounding on the force field. While watching their force field being destroyed, the enemies frowned at the situation, but they didn’t come out.
Junhyuk had kept an eye out on the enemies. Lugos coming out meant that they would have to engage him again, but for him, he could always go back inside the force field, so it was like they were fighting at the front lawn of their enemies’ house.
Junhyuk clicked his tongue and said, "Be careful. He can run away anytime."
"Sure. It’s been a while since I fought cowards," Gongon said and continued to strike at the castle’s force field diligently.
The situation didn’t favor the force field. They continued their pounding, and the force field started to shake. Finally, the enemies came out. Lugos was the sturdiest, so he came out first.
He turned dark immediately and stomped the ground. Since he used his powers as soon as he came out, Junhyuk, Gongon and Aktur were launched into the air. The enemies were aware of the gravity of their situation, and Gyulsean came out shooting an arrow against the allies in the air.
Junhyuk blocked the arrow with his sword, but he still received damage. The impact pushed him back, and Gyulsean set her bow aside and pulled out her spear. Finally, Drakey also came out.
Drakey opened his mouth, and at that moment, Junhyuk didn’t think twice before raising his force field. He set it with himself in the center, and Drakey’s soundwaves pushed the force field back.
Still in the air, they were all pushed back by the soundwave, but the enemies had used their powers. Lugos had already used two powers, so the situation favored the allies. If the enemies went back into their castle’s force field, the allies would destroy the castle.
Junhyuk used the Spatial Slash. Gyulsean had lost her chance to retreat and was hit by Junhyuk’s power again. Her neck was cut, and blood splattered on the ground. Her eyes shot wide. She could die at any moment.
Junhyuk landed and looked at Gongon. Without saying anything, Gongon flew in a headbutt toward Lugos while Gyulsean went back behind the castle’s force field. Before she was able to heal and return to the battlefield, the allies had to put matters to an end.
They still had Junhyuk’s force field. Aktur showed Junhyuk his claw-like nails and asked, "What are we going to do?"
"We can’t destroy their force field within the few seconds we have, so we have to kill them first."
"OK," Aktur said and ran forward, extending his hand in the direction of the enemies. From the ground, shadow hands rose to grab Lugos and Drakey. Meanwhile, Gongon used his firebreath.
The huge flames covered the enemies, and Junhyuk took a deep breath. There was something he had to do while Gyulsean was away, so Junhyuk touched Gongon an Aktur and teleported. They appeared between the castle’s force field and the enemies remaining outside of it.
They had blocked the enemies ability to retreat, and Junhyuk looked at Gyulsean. Within the force field, she was drinking a potion and regaining her health. She was frowning.
Junhyuk stopped looking at her and looked at the other enemies.
"Let’s go."
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThe group started their attacks. Junhyuk turned to face Gyulsean. She could come out and interfere, so he stayed to deal with her. The allies were attacking and blocking the enemies’ ability to retreat. If Gyulsean didn’t interfere in some way, the allies would have the advantage.
She closed her eyes and raised her spear. It wasn’t one of her powers, but Junhyuk kept looking at her while his own force field disappeared.
She came running out. Junhyuk knews she was quite skilled with her spear, but he thought she was being stupid. Aktur and Gongon had already pushed Lugos and Drakey back, and that’s when she came out to face the three champions.
Her health was at 50 percent, so she could die at any moment.
He smiled thinking about her stupidity and raised his sword. While she ran, Gyulsean pointed her spear forward, and something unbelievable happened. Behind her, there appeared ten running centaurs. They looked translucent, like souls, and they were all running toward them. Junhyuk grabbed Gongon and Aktur and teleported.
The centaurs remained, still coming after them.
"Is that a new power?"
Aktur nodded.
"She kept dying without doing anything, so maybe she activated a new power in desperation?"
Even after teleporting, the centaurs kept charging at them.
"Aktur, do we have to kill them?"
"Is there such deadly blow?" he said and summoned the skeleton soldier, making them charge against the centaurs. They clashed, and soon, both some centaurs and all skeletons disappeared.
Crack!
The soldiers were crushed as some of the soul centaurs disappeared. The three skeletons along with three centaurs were gone, but the enemies still had seven left.
Suddenly, a whirlwind formed.
"Shit!"
They were drawn into the whirlwind while the centaurs closed in. The centaurs attacked, taking off a good chunk of the allies’ health. Each centaurs had an attack equivalent to 30 percent of Gyulsean’s attack. In other word, that power had a total attack, with all ten centaurs, of 300 percent of Gyulsean regular attack.
Gongon lost half of his health, and Aktur was left with 20 percent of his, but the enemies had used all their powers. Junhyuk had 70 percent of his health and swung his sword. The shockwave from Junhyuk’s attack swept through the centaurs. He wasn’t sure if they disappeared on their own or because he had dealt damage over what they could handle, but they were all gone.
However, while they were all gone, he didn’t regain any health from it, possibly because they were just souls.
Everyone landed, and Junhyuk dashed out first. Gyulsean shot an arrow at him, but the arrow passed him by as he lifted his sword. He realized that the 10 percent chance for absolute evasion had worked and he went forward.* He wasn’t aiming at Gyulsean. The shockwaves were enough to kill her even though he had to damage her first.
Junhyuk aimed for Lugos and swung his two swords at him. Lugos also swung his weapons.
Clang!
Junhyuk parried Lugos’ ax, and he strafed to Lugos’ side, swinging the Frozen Rune Sword. The sword cut through Lugos’ ribs, and he slowed down. Then, Gongon, already transformed, ran toward Lugos. He had decided to help Junhyuk and joined in the attacks against the four-armed champion.
The both of them concentrated on Lugos, and Gyulsean and Drakey decided to approach Junhyuk. Then, suddenly, a roll of bandages flew toward Drakey and pulled him.
The twin-headed champion was pulled away, and Junhyuk and Gongon kept attacking. Gyulsean was being ignored, so she ran and hooked Gongon with her spear and threw him back.
Once Gongon was out of the way, Gyulsean and Lugos joined attacks on Junhyuk, and he blocked Gyulsean as she rushed him.
Clang!
From close range, the rush pushed him back, and he slammed against the castle’s force field.
Lugos and Gyulsean attacked him, and Junhyuk bent forward, parallel to the ground. Lugos’ ax and Gyulsean’s spear passed through the empty air where his torso had been. Then, he stood straight and realized his Spatial Slash was ready.
As previously planned, he wanted to attack Lugos and let the shockwave take care of Gyulsean. However, she had become a hero, so her health and attack were higher.
Still, he felt that he had to kill her, so he swung the Blood Rune Sword toward Lugos, who raised his hammer to block. Then, Junhyuk’s sword disappeared.
"Watch out!" Lugos shouted, but the sword was faster. A cut appeared on Gyulsean’s neck, which she hadn’t expected, so she couldn’t really responds. A red, circled shockwave expanded from her neck.
[You killed Gyulsean and earned 3,000G.]
She had become a hero, and he had killed her, but he still only earned 3,000G. Junhyuk smacked his lips and focused his attacks on Lugos. The four-armed champion only had half of his health when Gongon joined the fight again.
"Can I kill this guy?"
Junhyuk nodded.
"I’ll help you a little and leave."
Gongon was still transformed, and Lugos’ arms were enlarged. However, Junhyuk had attacked struck him twice with the Frozen Rune Sword, so Lugos was considerably slow and was leaving many openings. Gongon was beating the crap out of him, so Junhyuk left to engage Drakey.
Aktur was fighting Drakey, but he was being pushed because he didn’t have any powers left. He was also at low health, with only 10 percent left.
Drakey could kill him at any moment, but when Junhyuk joined, Drakey frowned. Gyulsean had become a hero, so they thought they had superiority in that team battle, but she was dead and Lugos was in danger. Drakey wanted to kill Aktur, but he had also used all of his powers, and Aktur was on defense.
Now, Junhyuk was also attacking him, so there were two of them to deal with.
Junhyuk could slash him with the Frozen Rune Sword, and Drakey would lose speed, so he had to fight Junhyuk first.
Junhyuk attacked Drakey, but the twin-headed champion’s absolute dodge was working fine. Still, he couldn’t keep doing it forever. It worked about 50 percent of the time, but Junhyuk attacked faster, and the Frozen Rune Sword finally slashed Drakey.
Then, he heard a familiar voice.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm[Gongon killed Lugos.]
Lugos was dead, and Junhyuk was certain the allies would be victorious. Drakey frowned and swung his spear, meaning to distance himself from the group, but Gongon flew toward him.
Boom!
Drakey’s absolute dodge didn’t work, and Gongon’s headbutt slammed against him, leaving him with 20 percent of his health. Junhyuk had wanted Aktur to kill with Drakey, but Drakey had been about to kill Aktur.
Drakey attacked.
"Gongon! Flames!"
Gongon inhaled deeply and blew it out. Drakey was approaching quickly and extended his spear. The firebreath failed. Drakey escaped it with his absolute dodge, and the spear slammed against the hatchling.
"Argh!"
Gongon was launched back, and Junhyuk dash to Drakey, swinging his sword. Drakey’s blood splattered on the ground from Junhyuk’s attack, and Gongon, angry, returned swinging his tail.
The tail slammed hard against Drakey’s head while Aktur’s claw-like nails pierced his neck.
"Tsk!"
[Aktur killed Drakey.]
Drakey fell, and Junhyuk smiled.
"That’s nice! You killed him!"
Aktur shrugged.
"Let’s end it."
Everyone pounded on the castle’s force field, quickly destroying it.
Junhyuk looked at Gongon, who raised his head, and touched the dragon’s head.
"It’s all thanks to you."
Aktur agreed, "This is much better than before."
Gongon smiled and wagged his tail slowly.
"I’ll contact you if I get bored."
The hatchling smiled with the communication crystal in his hand. Then, the world disappeared around them.
