187. whirlwind of fate (3)
Zervia looked down at the bottom of the hill with surprised eyes.
‘What the hell is this… .’
Without realizing it, my legs were shaking.
Hundreds of cars were scattered all over the place, and the fire was soaring.
Meanwhile, countless numbers of people were entangled in a battle.
──!
──!!
A landscape that is no different from Abigail.
Even though it was far away, the screams and the friction between the weapons seemed to come out vividly.
‘The task force is mixed. When I left the capital, I obviously never disclosed information to anyone.’
At first glance, the forces fighting the battle seemed to be four.
Police, including special forces.
Armed forces of unknown affiliation.
A pack of wolf beasts with gray fur.
And, the largest group of seemingly criminal forces.
But what stood out the most was the center of the battlefield.
Something was flashing light.
After looking at it for a while, I could see that they were ‘two people’ facing each other at a tremendous speed.
‘The boss of Red Skull and Blue Serpent.’
instinctively knew.
It felt like my hands were sweating just looking at it.
If this is the place Cain was talking about, no other person who could make such a move came to mind other than the bosses of the two organizations.
‘Cain, where is Cain?’
Her eyes quickly scanned the battlefield.
“Are you looking for Cain?”
Then a voice came from behind.
Zervia turned around in surprise.
“Estelle… priest?”
“long time no see. Cain is over there.”
Estelle’s finger pointed to a spot on the battlefield.
Fireballs blooming in the air.
It was pouring down towards the ground like a meteorite.
And a man leisurely ‘floating’ among the blooming fireballs.
It was only then that Zerbia could recognize Cain.
“What happened? I think we need an explanation of the situation.”
“Explain? Need an explanation?”
“Yes?”
Estelle tilted her head as if asking a question because she really didn’t know.
“Red Skull and Blue Serpent. Two of the worst criminal gangs of all time come face to face. You have something to do, right? You are a police officer.”
Zervia’s gaze turned to the battlefield again, but she still looked confused.
“I understand that Cain’s forces are armed with guns and suits. But did he get the police too? If that’s the case, why are you instructing me to move alone? .”
“You made an oath with Cain. To destroy the Blue Serpent.”
Estelle interrupted Zervia.
“There’s the Blue Serpent’s boss over there. There is also a Red Skull boss. The battle has been going on for quite some time, and both of them are exhausted.”
It was as she said.
No matter how strong he was, if he fought a fierce battle with an opponent of a similar level, his energy would be rapidly depleted.
“I agree. If you attack now, you might be able to deal heavy damage to both bosses. But then why Cain… .”
I could tell without listening to the backstory.
Cain was saying why wasn’t he attacking the two bosses.
“Because it’s dangerous.”
“… … .”
“I said I could lose my life. Even if the fire is extinguished, the heat itself is different. However.”
Estelle took a breath and said.
“I said you could put out the fire without burning your hands.”
“What do you mean?”
“I do not know either. I just said that when things are over, you’ll find out on your own. So come on.”
Estelle shut her mouth.
As if that was the end of what I had to say.
“… … .”
Zervia, who was looking at Estelle, turned her head and looked forward.
Then I turned the throttle on the bike and slipped down the hill quickly.
‘The situation doesn’t change unless you stand still.’
I couldn’t understand everything.
However, it was clear that there was an enemy in front of him that had to be defeated.
Boo-!
The battlefield, which had been located in a distant landscape, quickly approached.
The dot marked on the tracker indicated the battlefield of the two bosses.
Since it wasn’t moving, I wondered if there was a detector attached to one of the cars parked nearby.
Now the battlefield is right in front of you.
Enemies will begin to rush.
Zervia lowered her stance, got her body close to the bike, and prepared to break through.
“… … ?”
But he never ran away.
Is it because they focus on each other’s battles and don’t care about this passing by?
There were members of the Red Skull gang who occasionally attacked, but they were blocked by wolf beasts or Supreme Security and fell out.
It felt like making a way to reach the goal safely.
Now the distance between the two bosses is about 20 meters.
cringe-
stopped the bike.
I got off the bike, drew my sword, and took a tense step.
The two bosses stopped fighting and were facing each other.
They looked at each other, shaking their bodies with heavy breathing.
‘… … .’
It was the first time I had actually witnessed the heads of two criminal groups.
One had scars all over his face.
The other was an ordinary impression.
Jinyoung could be recognized by the tattoos visible between the torn clothes.
Zervia gave strength to the hand holding the sword.
It felt like the blood all over my body had dried up and my breathing was suffocating.
It was simply by stepping into the battlefield of the two bosses.
At that moment, a member of the Red Skull crew appeared on the other side.
He was approaching behind his back with his sword clenched to hit the Blue Serpent Boss.
Fear, fear, anxiety.
It was an insane face.
It seemed that the two bosses could not withstand the pressure that they gave off.
“Lord, die—!!!”
He sprinted up his seat and swung his sword towards the Blue Serpent Boss.
It was a gesture of terror.
However, thanks to the basic skills he had on his body, his movements were not superfluous.
spatula.
And the next moment.
The severed neck and body of the Red Skull gang fell to the ground.
The Blue Serpent Boss was still immobile.
Except for the fact that the dagger he was holding had blood that must have been shed.
‘Can I win?’
Zervia was questioned along with fear.
I couldn’t even follow the movement with my eyes.
It is a clear fact that his mana circuit has grown significantly recently.
However, the picture of victory over those monsters was not easily drawn in my mind.
I looked back at Cain in the air.
As if he had been constantly looking at this side, their eyes met immediately.
The boy’s eyes seemed to speak.
“What are you hesitating about?”
“… … .”
Estelle’s words ran through her head.
“I said you could put out the fire without burning your hands.”
He fixed his sword and turned his gaze back to the two bosses.
okay.
Since I’ve already been on a boat, I have no choice but to trust and follow what he says.
All of the instructions he’s given so far have had good reasons.
fault!
Zervia took her seat.
At the same time, the two bosses also sprinted towards each other.
The first two bosses were attached.
Break up!
The dagger that hit the knuckle broke, and the Blue Serpent Boss pulled out a new weapon and started a counterattack.
‘Rapier?’
Zervia felt an unknown sense of déjà vu for a moment.
But before that, the body was already rushing towards the enemy.
The Red Skull Boss who retreated greatly from the Blue Serpent Boss’s sword attack.
As if he had been stabbed by a rapier, several thin veins of blood were gushing out of his chest.
The eyes were out of focus.
It was impossible to fight.
At a glance, the organs must have been severely damaged.
Now, the one that was closer to this place was the Blue Serpent Boss.
It was the moment he was preparing to run again to completely kill his prey.
‘The enemy doesn’t care about this. If you focus on one blow, the odds are good enough… !’
distance has been narrowed.
It was an excellent opportunity.
Infused mana into the sword.
Nettle!
The moment you swing your sword.
The Blue Serpent Boss turned around.
Seeing the rapier drawing a trajectory towards his neck, Zervia felt death.
“… … !”
But what happened next was unexpected.
When the Blue Serpent Boss saw this, he quickly removed the rapier with a very bewildered expression.
His posture was severely damaged due to forcing his movements, and Zervia’s sword cut his shoulder.
“ね.”
A moan escaped the Blue Serpent’s mouth.
I couldn’t hear it properly, but for a moment I thought that Zervia wasn’t unfamiliar.
‘Now is not the time to worry about such things.’
Zervia quickly continued the attack.
visor! visor!
The sound of blades clashing, grinding, and sliding echoed through the wilderness.
It was felt that Cain, who was watching, used reinforcement magic, and his strength and agility had greatly improved.
‘can win.’
An opponent who has a hard time defending against an attack.
Gradually, confidence grew in battle.
But it was also true that it felt strange.
‘No matter how much he injured his shoulder, he narrowed the difference in force with reinforcement magic.’
A ‘monster’-like opponent who showed off his overwhelming invincibility a while ago.
I had the impression that something was constrained in my actions and that I was not able to show my skills.
He tried to escape the battlefield several times, but was blocked by Cain’s magic and his pursuit every time.
‘You can really win.’
What a moment I had never longed for.
The Blue Serpentra could bring an end to the worst criminal gang.
I couldn’t feel any more discomfort and dizziness.
The exhilaration and excitement of achieving the goal was overshadowed by it.
The blue serpent boss was gradually cornered like a beast being hunted by a mole.
And eventually.
pooh.
My heart was pierced by Zervia’s sword.
‘… disappointment… haha.’
Raymond let out a hot breath.
Blood dripped down his lips.
His eyes began to defocus and his vision began to blur.
He sensed his own end.
I tried to put as much of the daughter’s face as possible in the field of view.
“sorry… do… .”
It was a word with a lot in it.
With those words, Raymond collapsed on the floor.
A pool of red blood spreads around the man who had been tormented between love and hate his whole life.
and a woman’s husband.
He was the father of a woman.
That was it.
“I’m sorry… ?”
Zervia couldn’t understand.
Why did the boss of a criminal organization say he was sorry?
But I didn’t really care.
The reason was anesthetized by a deep sense of euphoria.
“There must be one more thing to finish.”
Cain’s voice was heard.
Zervia turned and looked at the Red Skull boss.
He took a sword dripping with blood and walked towards him.
“… … .”
It was strange.
He looked at this and opened his mouth.
It was an expression on his face that he felt his heart pounding, but did not know how to express it.
Soon he smiled.
There were tears in the corners of his eyes.
Al Pacino slowly reached out.
As if he wanted to stroke Zervia’s face.
“Thank you. really… .”
“You grew up so well.”
Zervia’s sword drew a line in the air.
Al Pacino’s head flew away and fell to the floor.
There was a smile on his face that he hadn’t seen in 20 years.
Cain, floating in the air, slowly lowered his altitude towards the bodies of Raymond and Al Pacino.
“Boss-!!!”
at that time.
Overlapping shouts were heard from afar.
It was the Red Skull gang who broke through Supreme Security.
There seemed to be enough of 10.
All of them were officers or similar figures.
The boss’s death must have kindled their wrath and hatred.
The members of the organization, who narrowed the distance in an instant, grabbed their swords and leaped towards Cain.
“Cain! Dangerous!”
Zervia hurriedly swung her sword, but only cut one of the necks.
The moment Red Skull’s sword was about to touch Cain.
A large amount of mana was sucked into Cain’s hands from the corpses of Al Pacino and Raymond.
Cain’s whole body shone.
At that moment, the battlefield was dyed pure white.
