Episode 232
Luke and his companions appeared in front of everyone without hesitation.
The first to react, of course, were the members of the Sagun faction that moved to Yoyokhyang.
“Luke? What are you doing here?”
“The purpose overlapped. Did you not notice?”
At Luke’s gesture of spitting out words and pointing in the direction we were in, the Four Army detachment immediately went into alert.
“… junior. I think things are getting messed up.”
“it’s okay. So far, it has not deviated much from the expected range.”
In fact, it was best to see the match without Luke’s intervention, but as I said before, I was fully aware of this possibility.
At this point, hiding is no longer meaningful.
I finally arrived in front of Baek So-yul’s servants and Arrieta.
“Nice to meet you. I was waiting for the day we would meet again.”
“… … .”
The strong presence felt just by standing still, but I tried to ignore it and looked at the level of the detached unit with emotional function.
‘Really, it is difficult.’
To be precise, there is no strong person with overwhelming numbers.
However, almost all of them were in the mid-level 50s, and they were perfect elite units.
In this case, it could have been more difficult than that, as it was a situation where we had to take over the yoyokhyang.
“… It’s a pretentious word, but it seems to be at a disadvantage in terms of power. I think it would be better to step back first.”
Baek Kang-woo, a subordinate of Baek So-yul, has expressed his anxiety at the level difference that can be felt without checking it.
It certainly is.
If the forces of the two sides clash as they are now, we will be the one to be disastrously broken.
As a result, Baek So-yul’s subordinates were naturally losing their morale.
“Hmm, it seems to be easier than I thought.”
Alan Kruger, one of two colleagues who appeared with Luke. He opened his mouth with a soft smile.
And I checked his appearance, and glanced across the forest with my eyes.
‘Is it time soon?’
To be honest, if Luke gets involved in this case, there aren’t many ways to react.
The three major families will not be able to move due to the four military groups gathered to attract attention, and the headquarters will hardly be able to use their power in the aftermath of the past incident.
But, ironically, I found the answer in Alan Kruger, who joined Luke’s colleague.
“It will be harder than you think.”
“what?”
“They are poisoned right now to catch you.”
As soon as I finished speaking, I began to feel the presence of multiple people approaching me at high speed from the other side of the forest.
At that, Luke and his party frowned, and the detached wing of the Four Army Group also turned their heads with their tongues kicking.
What emerged from there was a group of Westerners with considerable momentum.
“… The clock is responding. He really is.”
“Heh heh, hey. An unexpected number.”
Alan Krueger, who confirmed their identities, smirked in embarrassment.
They are members of the Kruger family to which Johan, one of the main characters of the original work, belongs.
They are true hunters who have been fighting taboos for the rest of their lives, chasing the ancestor Allen, who is called the stain of the Kruger family.
And I made a contract with them through the contact point with John.
I’m going to bring Alan Kruger in a good way, so please help me in this fight.
“I have to thank you. So, are they all enemies?”
“Yes. That’s right. The other two are Luke Penzalot and Drax of Night School, and those behind them are members of the Sagun faction.”
“They’re all namesakes.”
Even for the Kruger family, they were certainly formidable enemies, but perhaps their feelings were stronger than that.
‘The Kruger family of taboo hunting is famous indeed.’
Their prestige and ability are at a level comparable to that of some famous families, and even they have drawn all their power without looking back in order to achieve the family’s wish.
Even John Kruger, who was in front of me right now, was a strong man over level 60, so there was no need for more words.
“Hey Luke. The Kruger family is dangerous.”
“… … .”
“They are proficient in handling taboos and have hunted countless powerful people with precise links. It can be at odds with us.”
Drax, observing the situation, sent a warning, but Luke didn’t seem ready to back down.
He knew that it would be nearly impossible to comfortably face me if it wasn’t for now that he had escaped the surveillance of the three great families.
‘You have to come out like that.’
As it was a painstakingly prepared board, letting them run away again would be a huge loss for me as well.
In the end, both sides could not back down, and finally, the battle for everything began.
“Take them out!”
“You must hold the stuff!”
The members of the Sagun faction set out to defend themselves after calmly preparing themselves in a situation where they could not understand the English language at all.
And at the same time, I made a quick decision while observing the forces that had begun to confront each other.
‘First, take the port of Yoyok.’
Once a decision was made, there was no hesitation in action.
When I looked away, Arietta nodded, and then disappeared into the darkness, dyeing her eyes red.
I handed over the request to John Kruger, who was by my side.
“Can you hold the feet of the enemies for a moment?”
“It is not difficult. After all, they’re all sinners with their feet in the taboo. You cannot be free from us.”
Haha, if the Kruger family had a knack for dealing with gold magic, no matter how strong their opponents were, they wouldn’t be wasted.
Having set my heart on John’s rant, I glanced in the direction of Luke’s, and walked towards the members of the Sagun faction.
“Only So-Yul Baek will follow me, and the rest will cooperate with the Kruger family.”
“Did you hear that? Everyone, take care of your own life.”
“Yes! All right!”
As Baek So-yul, who once tried to break away from the Baek family and establish an independent power, had a number of fairly loyal subordinates under her.
All of these people here are too strong, so the light may fade a little, but they are also talented people who can take good care of themselves.
‘… It seems like this has been sorted out.’
Now I, too, must achieve my original purpose in this premarital relationship.
As I quickly moved and approached the rear of the four-armed detachment that was in full swing with the Kruger family, a man who seemed to be the leader of them hurriedly shouted.
“Don’t let me go near you!”
Hearing that, a total of six people rushed to us.
Each of them is a strong player who crosses between a second-class exorcist and a first-class exorcist, but to be honest, it was a huge mistake.
“I’m going to hit it quickly.”
“I was waiting.”
As if a moth was stinging after a long battle, Baek So-yul developed a family-specific strengthening technique and exploded at the enemies.
At some point, she was holding a high-ranking sword in the form of a stick, which broke the spell that the opponent was trying to develop, and in an instant, began to overthrow the enemy’s camp.
Whoops!
Quazy!
“Great!”
“Kuh huh!”
This is not a surprising result.
As mentioned before, she, too, is a genius who has stood out among the high expectations of a hundred families of raw meat.
If a little more time is added in the future, he is a person who can rise to the level of a special express.
To her like that, an ordinary semi-first-class exorcist was not a difficult opponent.
“Calm down! The enemy is strong! We have to work together!”
They were members of the Sagun faction who quickly grasped the opponent’s power and changed their posture, but unfortunately it was already too late.
Suddenly, the dark red mist that appeared behind them suddenly became an intangible blade and began to destroy the formation.
Scratch!
Sue remember!
quagga!
“Aww!”
“There is something! careful… … Whoops!”
Literally, the exorcists of the Four-Gun faction collapsed in an instant with no room to do anything.
It was Arietta, who had previously disappeared through her fogging ability, who created such a scene.
Arietta, who had already begun to realize the power of the Jingwihyeol (眞貴血) trait, had reached a point where the criminal could no longer reach it.
When the six colleagues collapsed without even responding, the leader of them panicked and began to lead his men directly.
He realized that he could not be a match for some people.
‘My name is Joo Wang-rin, and my level is 63.’
Certainly he is strong. It is probably the person who holds the same position as the branch head of the Sagun faction within this detached unit.
Unfortunately, our achievements were already too advanced to be dealt with alone.
“Giant of power (巨力鬼), ear of superior power (牛首鬼).”
slurp.
Whoa!
[Goo!]
[Cr.]
As the level reaches a certain level, new production-type shikigami that have been made for a long time indeed.
Of course, it was not comparable to my current shikigami, but even so, it possesses a different power than the Hungryang and Goulung that have been shown before.
While Joo Wang-rin was practicing his magic against the giant shikigami, a huge hand came out of my shadow that had penetrated behind him and grabbed his leg.
It was just that
[Kooh!]
“Wow!”
After grabbing Ju Wang-rin as it is, Gson-dae smashed him with all his might, and Ju Wang-rin flew away like a piece of paper and collided with the ground.
He also seemed to have protected his body somehow because he was a strong man, but looking at his expression, he looked like he was quite shocked.
“Senior, please.”
“… yes. Leave it to me.”
Leaving behind the rest of the shikigami and Arietta, me and Baek So-yul hurriedly ran towards the place where Yo-yo-hyang was placed.
Of course, there were a few troops guarding the place, but it was not difficult to organize them.
Eventually, we soon found ourselves in front of a bizarre urn full of ominous power.
“This is the port of Yoyo… … .”
Baek So-yul looked at it as if he had lost his mind for a moment, and I also felt a chilling sensation running down my back.
It’s definitely dangerous stuff. If this seal is completely lifted, Seoul will truly be engulfed in disaster.
“I will hurry up and move as planned.”
At my words, Baek So-yul raised his spiritual power and picked up the jar, and we hurriedly started to leave the battlefield.
However, before he could even take a few steps, Baek So-yul collapsed on his seat.
“Heh heh, heh. I don’t have a face. This is something I can afford… … .”
At the same time, Zhu Wang-lin, who confirmed this, hurriedly shouted.
“I don’t know what you’re aiming for, but it’s not something you guys can handle! Unless you use a special cast or magic spell, just touching it will be eroded by the curse, so it’s best to just give up!”
At Zhuwangrin’s words, I concentrated my energy and calmly stared at the stream of energy flowing from Yoyok Port.
And then, slowly, he stretched out his hand forward.
