How the Villain Lives

21. Giant of Heather

Time flies fast.

Among the leading events since the battle with Japan were the occupation of the untapped city and the rapid growth of Kim Lee Hyun's Rescue Guild. After a one-time war with Japan, the Salvation Guild, which had been hiding in the Negev, also came to light in exchange for its support in reaching a temporarily weakened coalition and conquering untapped cities. The profits from the newly pioneered city were never small.

There were also special battalions or new missions that came out of this place, bringing the vast majority of people who dreamed of growing up to other cities. In addition to the rewards received from Japan, the fortress was bursting into vigour. Of course, Sung-hoon was busy, too.

Kaang!

After dodging the poisonous spit, Sung-hoon swung his sword as he jumped into the air. Even a simple jump was different from others. Is it a melting movement of elegance and sleekness? The tail, which was about to fall back after the attack, is cut off by the trajectory of the swayed sword. Of course, Dessert Scorpion, a size that seemed to combine the two sets of people, began to shake the tail where the body fluids were scattered, creating turbulence.

The body fluid had a weak acidity, which in some sense caused it to flow much more dangerously than it just did, but when I grabbed the tip of the cloak and lifted it up, the body fluid was completely blocked.

"Stay still!"

Kwajik!

As he crashed to the ground, he tore his head to the edge of the magic book in his left hand, and the scalped Scorpion began to stumble heavily. With that, the verdict was already reached. As I stepped backwards, a burning flaming arrow flew towards my inner body. Then I wanted to burst all over the body, and the movement stopped as smoke bloomed all over the body.

"Are you okay?"

"Not bad. Even insect-type monsters are hard to deal with compared to human-type monsters, so they need magical support."

"I'm glad it helped."

With a smile on Bassy's staff, Yukiko starts memorizing spells to blow a powerful one again. Her second awakening and her transfer to Deadly Magic were worth using in this battle. Of course, the day Sung-hoon 100% trusted Yukiko would never come, but I didn't intend to treat him as an idealist who showed some stability and reconciliation to himself.

A number of Desert Scorpions collapsed with the sound of wind as they spoke lightly to ease the tension.

He swung the sword as he dug between the hordes of Scorpions, who saw no gaps between the left and right swords, producing black cavities. Each time, green body fluids, legs, and tails were cut off and rolled to the ground.

"Miriam! Don't go too far ahead!"

"That's enough. You can't fight back! Seong-hoon, come here too!"

Sieeeeeeeee!

Whoa! Whoa!

I didn't have the slightest desire to enter a space where legs such as poison needles and blades were struggling. Of course, you can sleep and get out of your body, but that doesn't mean that you deliberately enjoyed thrills enough to enter dangerous places.

"This is growing collective combat capabilities now! What do you do when you pop out on your own?"

"... Ah!"

It was Mirina who opened her mouth slightly and panicked as if she realized it late. Yes. The mission that Sung-hoon is doing right now is one or two people who cannot be challenged on a party basis. In other words, it was a mission dedicated to Raid. As the difficulty of the mission is fragmented, so are the different kinds. There are two of the most difficult types of missions: Raid, which is a kind of reasoning mission that requires a large number of people like the army, or using the head.

And the 'Desert Nightmare' mission I'm doing right now was a Class B Raid mission.

After the war, Sung-hoon was able to sit in the money seat.

Whether it was a house that gained ownership in Tokyo or a grocery store or a restaurant or a café, it was cheap to tax it, but the important thing was the existence of walls and gates. At first, I switched to closed mode so that I couldn't get to the field, but after a few negotiations, I decided to get 10,000 guild fees to use it once.

In Korea, where the entrance fee was too much, but many people on the Japanese side did not want to come to the field, their proposal was passed in favour.

On the Japanese side, money was being doubled by receiving information about the number of Japanese people present in the field estimated by the entrance fee.

'Of course there are as many in and out as there are.'

He was half-conscious, but his body was naturally moving and slashing his enemies. It was Sung-hoon who danced to the rhythm rather than fighting now. Just reaching out and retrieving the sword at the right time allowed me to pass through the monsters unawares.

As the monsters began to shrink momentarily by their actions, Sung-hoon raised his voice and shouted.

"Shoot!"

People who were aligning from behind before the order fell began to shoot arrows and cast magic. It was the people who were holding the weapon that were defeated by the ranged bombardment.

As they staged the battle, a fierce battle soon began, and Seong Hun and Miri fell into the right rear and began to watch the battle.

"You can't dominate either."

"Well, these are the primary Awakeners. You won't be able to use it in Class B missions, even if you've been trained strongly for personal training and group warfare against your opponents."

"I know. But I made a huge investment per person, and I still have a long way to go."

Yukiko, who was listening to Sung-hoon and Miri, hesitated for a moment and came forward. Yukiko, a second-ranked Awakener, was waiting in the rear without a support shot.

"Hey.."

"What is it?"

"Calm down, why?"

It was Yukiko who shrunk slightly because of Myrina, who came out of her mind bitterly. I don't know if it's because I'm Japanese, but when I look at Sung-hoon, Myrina seems to be treating Yukiko a little colder.

Well, I don't want to dig into personal conflict and say this, but I didn't want it to happen in front of me.

"Can I ask you one question?"

"Anything."

"Why don't you help me?"

In addition to the three, some of Mirina's chosen men were left behind without participating in the battle. Only regular combatants are involved in the battle. Even though some people were seriously injured or in a crisis of death, they could not understand why they were only watching.

"Wh... If Sung-hoon and Myrina are involved, I think we can wipe them out overwhelmingly without being driven like that."

As soon as Sung-hoon could not answer, Miri opened her mouth and began to explain.

"That's a stupid question."

"Yes?"

"It's an act called Molly on purpose. If we get involved, we will certainly be able to fight steadily and win easily. But can you really be strong? Do you want to be stuck with the idea that 'Others will save you', 'It would be okay to make a mistake'?"

"Th-that...."

Mirina swings her sword and speaks out of her buried body fluids.

"I don't know about archers or wizards, but those ideas are poisonous to those who fight directly against the enemy."

There were ways of thinking that were not well understood among professions. Yukiko, who was listening to Miri's explanation, realized that this battle was based on that kind of thinking.

"You can die. Rather, one or two people will have to come out and fight with more evil. Only the practice of blood frying is the fastest way to become strong. I was disappointed that most people are only seeking stability, but Sung-hoon is different."

"Huh? Me?"

"Yes, you are much more daring than I am to think of training not only in cooperation, but also in this way to foster reading and ferocity."

I thought I'd try it on a Class C Raid Mission because Mirina thought it was dangerous. Isn't Sung-hoon doing it on a Class B Raid Mission? I thought it would be more dangerous, but I was forced to admire the boldness of Sung-hoon as I looked at those who fought harder than expected.

"That means that Sung-hoon surpassed me in teaching someone."

"Did you mean that deeply?"

As if it were a compliment to him, he avoided looking at Yukiko with an even more frightened look at Myrina and Sung-hoon with a deep smile.

'I don't know, what... I'm scared of that.'

Mirina has a completely empty leg. Although there was clearly an idea to increase cooperation, Sung-hoon did it simply to find out his loyalty. I remembered those who were retreating from the battle, those who were passive, those who were active or careless.

I was just trying to figure out whether he was the kind of guy who could trust me to deepen his mental education and write it down once and for all. What kind of overestimation is this?

"Oh, yeah, yeah, probably."

With the last conscience, it was Sung-hoon who couldn't face him.

Guild name recommended! Let's go! Let's go!
