Kill the Dragon

00171 # 26 Counter

Wee-ing!

Yanni lands on her feet. The first thing I felt was the stench of disgusting blood. When you open your eyes, you see the corpses of the redbitten werewolves.

‘Dangerous.'

Yanni quickly pulls out her gun. You roll over and hide behind the tree. Then I rolled my eyes and looked around. Usually, she is lazy, but she is also highly trained in combat. Instinctively, I was combat ready.

Gaaaah!

There was a commotion in the vineyard across the street. There was a brief mix of non-human voices.

“Sunbae?”

Yanni found Yihan among the vineyards. Lee was being chased by something and shooting.

‘Are you in combat? ’

Yanni is taking a short breath. I needed to know who the opposition was.

‘I don't see it. ’

The opposing Pokémon doesn't have a physical form. But Lee was shooting at someone.

“Enemies are using their invisibility! Two Elu Knights! ”

Lee Hwan shouted loudly. He checked the time zone now and was confident that the jumping point manager had arrived. I raised my voice and reported the status of the battle.

Elu Knight? ’

Yanni bites her lip. She's not a reinforcement, but she knows information about the minions. Elu Knight is a dangerous enemy. Among Elu, it is of the highest rank and is just as strong. Even psychoframe reinforcements ambush and kill them.

‘I'm not a worthy adversary. ’

Yanni loses his ability to fight Minions. I had to leave the battle to Ihan now. Not all sickers are brave soldiers.

“Huff.”

Lee took a deep breath. You hold your breath and shoot. Something transparent bounces off the bullet.

How long can transparency last? There are two opponents. The other one may attack at any time. ’

It was an hour ago that Lee was chased. The persistent pursuit finally brought us here.

‘The soldiers guarding me are dead too. Damn it.'

Lee didn't come alone. There were two guards next to him. They were well-trained soldiers. Even those soldiers died in battle. Elu Knight and the werewolves.

The combination of Werewolf and Elu Knight was formidable. Elu Knight is heavily armed and uses even Psychic abilities at a high level.

‘If I was a monster like an Ogre, I would try something because the pattern is simple... Ellu's got a good head. ’

Elu Knights wait for Ehan to load his gun. They didn't rush. Time was on their side anyway. I've enjoyed hunting humans for a long time.

Yanni hides and waits for the battle to end.

You're not gonna die, are you? It's a modified reinforcement unit. ’

The reinforcements are strong. They slice up a few minions with their bare bodies. Yanni was reluctant to go into battle directly. You might die if you do.

‘I didn't come here to die. I'm sorry if you get beat up, but I'm gonna have to run away alone. ’

Yanni examines the situation. You still hear a struggle. She breathes.

Zec.

The vineyard shakes. Something approaches Jani's back. One of the Elu Knights spotted Jani.

Jani doesn't notice Elu's approach.

Pot!

Behind Yanni comes Elu Knight. The first blow hits Yanni's hair. A little deeper, I almost blew my head off.

“My hair? ”

Yanni mutters and quickly pulls back. Your back gives you the creeps. You can see Elu's ferocious eyes. The transparent Elu turns the blade around.

“It's not me, it's over there. Damn it.”

Yanni grumbles. My hands and feet trembled, as opposed to my mouth teasing lightly. It's been a long time since I've been alive. Yanni's eyes turn sharp.

‘I have to do something. ’

Yanni's teleport abilities are useless in battle. I needed time to focus on using it

Bang.

Yanni picks up her pistol and shoots. Elu Knight is wearing a thin psychic shield. You can't pierce it with a pistol of penetration.

“Tsk.”

Yanni makes a run for it. Fleeing has been a quick limit. Elu was strong and fast.

‘This is bad. This is killing me. ’

Yanni frowns.

Lee sees that Jani and Elu Knight are engaged. There were two Elu Knights, one of which caught up with Yanni.

‘I'm sorry for Yanni, but this is better in this situation. I need to get rid of this guy fast and help Yanni fast. ’

Lee recognized that it was a one-on-one situation. On the run, he turns his steps. You rush towards Elu Knight.

‘Come.’

Lee hasn't used his left hand as a free material yet. This Pokémon has a free Combat Strength. He draws his dragon knife. It was easy to handle with one hand.

“Kiyoooo!”

Elu roars and rushes at Ihan. Elu loosened the transparency and reinforced the psychic shield. The blue light surrounds his body. In that state, a dazzling physical attack does not work. Only dragon weapons and psychic attacks are effective.

Whoo-hoo.

Lee's knife was also filled with psychic energy.

‘Give me your arm, slit your throat. ’

Lee reached out his left arm. Elu wields his sword with the intention of cutting off his left arm completely.

Pow!

Elu's blade is embedded in Lee's left arm. Lee Han's prosthetic skeleton was made of dragon bones. Elu flinches. Ihan pushes his left arm forward and seals Elu's blade from moving.

“Sorry, that's a fake arm. ”

Beetle.

Ihan cut Elu's head off. Elu looks ridiculous. My head was on the ground.

‘Yanni is in danger. ’

Lee moved relentlessly. He runs in the direction of Yanni. Elu seems to have killed Jani by now. I tried to shoot him, but the bullet didn't shock him.

‘Far away.’

Lee took hold of the knife firmly. As you run, you bend your arms back. You grab the tip of the blade and swing it hard.

Ping-Grr.

The blade flew violently into Elu's back. A blade with a psychic kick protrudes from your chest.

Phew!

“Ahh!”

There was blood on Yanni's face. She sighs of relief rather than astonishment. It was a face that was barely alive. She looks at Yihan behind Elu's falling shoulder.

“You okay?"

Lee Han said as he approached. He steps on Elu's back and retrieves the sword. I slit Elu's throat with a double check. The series of movements were natural.

“I almost died. Aim for a fragile girl. Men and women, old and infinite. ”

Yanni jokes.

“I'm alive because of you. It was a shame if you two jumped at the same time. I thought I got rid of all the werewolves, but then the Eluvs showed up. ”

Lee said, looking at the corpses of the surrounding werewolves. Four werewolves are dead.

“Did you take care of all this? Hmm. You're a little hard on yourself. ”

“There was someone else. He died earlier.”

Lee said bitterly. If Ellu Knight hadn't shown up, we could have saved everyone.

“Well, I think it's important that you're alive. I don't know, but you're an important part of the Citadel. ”

He said it didn't matter who Yanni died. A world with infinitely lighter weight. No one mourns someone who knows neither face nor name.

Lee wiped the blood off the blade. You check the equipment one by one and put it in.

“Thank you for being here on time. Yanni.”

“You're welcome. It's my job. I'm glad you're alive, Frank. Everyone was worried.”

Yanni was surprised that Lee had returned safely. It was a public secret that Lee Han had left to contact the arc.

‘What did he say to Arc? ’

Yanni is worried about money. I don't know the details, but I do know that Citadel and Arc are hostile.

‘I hope nothing happens. ’

Yanni reaches out to him. Immediately, a swarm of light surrounded them. When I opened my eyes, it was inside the Citadel.

- What's going on?

Silence asked Lee when he came back. Lee unpacked and changed into dusty clothes. The dressing veil that rises up to your neck only sticks out your head.

“The arc did well. All we have to do is convince the Citadel. ”

- It couldn't have been easy.

I didn't have time to explain everything that happened at the arc.

“I'll talk to you later. ”

Lee requested an interview with Omega-1 as soon as he changed his clothes. Omega-1 was also waiting.

-Okay.

Silence doesn't seem to like it. But I didn't ask any more questions.

Lee Han crossed the corridor of Citadel. The office of Omega-1 is not far away. The door was open, and Omega-1 sat down.

“There you are, Alpha. Did you have a good trip?”

“Not really.”

Omega-1 suddenly looks at Ihan's left hand. The gesture on the left hand was awkward.

“Did you hurt your left hand? ”

“Lost.”

Lee said, raising his left arm. You move your finger with your mind, and there's a tear called prosthetics.

“You've come at a great price. ”

Omega-1 bends forward with its chin bent. It meant I would listen to the story from now on.

“I'll cut back and forth and say it first. Arc has agreed to work with the Citadel. If the Citadel is willing. ”

Omega-1 bursts into exaggerated laughter.

“Ha! Those hypocrites? You want to work with us? I'm glad you didn't point that gun at us. ”

“I guarantee safety. You know that, right? To end this war, we must join hands with Arc one day. You don't really think you can win a war with the power of the Citadel, do you? ”

Omega-1 is silent for a moment. He shuts his eyes and thinks. This is a scenario that has been somewhat expected since Lee Han arrived. He thought he'd have to work with the arc one day. It was about whether it was the Ark or the Citadel.

‘The ideal scenario was to take out the weakened arc's men and absorb them into the Citadel…. ’

Omega-1 saw Kuro's power and thought it was possible. The plan of omega-1 has completely changed before and after the expression of Kuro's psychic core.

“What's your plan? You're not seriously suggesting that we use the power of the Arc and the Citadel to create an all-out war, are you? What did you give the arc to convince them of? If you want to seek cooperation, tell us what you're hiding. Alpha, just like I exposed myself to you. ”

Omega-1 was willing to accept his offer. Of course, if the opportunity of war has come, we must seize it. But I don't intend to hold on to it as if I was waiting. I also tapped the stone bridge and examined all the variables and situations as I crossed over. I made the most of it.

“I've left the only means to end this war at the Arc. ”

Lee left the spear of the silver fang in the arc.

“That's the first I've heard of it. A means to an end? ”

The eyes of Omega-1 sank cold. Lee had a lot to hide. I just let it go because I couldn't get it out by force.

“It's a long story. I don't want to explain it twice, so call Kuro. I'll page Silence. ”

Omega-1 frowned and moved the place. It was a meeting room for executives. Ihan, Omega-1, Kuro, Silence. They sat face-to-face, and Lee explained what he was going through to keep his story as short as possible. Kuro was the most responsive.

“Fantastic! So you can really end the war, right? ”
