Episode 280 – Siege (10)
‘It’s different.’
The emotions I felt in this split second of dealing with him were strong. The fact that the reason was because of the unique power it possessed was a fact that could be confirmed the moment one suspected why they were kidnapping people from Earth.
The power of a warrior. They had found a clue to the hero’s power they had been longing for.
“Okay, I’ll take care of it!”
“Wait a minute…”
Without me having time to stop him, Kang Yu-na fired an arrow at him and quickly widened the distance. Like a doll, he felt no emotions and just chased after Kang Yuna with her sword.
[It is right to finish quickly and help]
The wind spirit advised her to first kill the enemies in front of her and then help her. So I took that advice.
He fired a blade imbued with a strong gust of wind at the orc who was shouting and running towards him. Seeing that it can resist being pressed down with strong force, it certainly appears to be at the level of a captain.
[Shouting to die]
As if he was confident, he accepted my power and rushed forward. He seems firmly convinced that if he gets close he will win.
‘I never thought I would use it like this.’
In order to be able to handle the close combat, I strengthened my body using the strong body technique of the beast people that I had recently learned.
[How did you do that!! [He is surprised]
“Tell me what you are asking, even though you know.”
Dodging his weapon, I clenched my fist with blue flames swirling around it. The qualities of a warrior they were so desperately looking for. In fact, I knew from the beginning where the complete form was.
It’s me. I, who worked as a hunter with the power of flame, may be the seed of the hero they were looking for.
[Kaaa! He screamed and ran away]
“Why even do that?”
I focused my fist on a flame that burned more powerfully and bigger than my body, enough to instantly brighten up this entire dark passage, and threw it straight into the guy’s chest.
The person who screamed with a shock wave as if a cannon had been fired lost his weapon and flew into the opposite wall and was struck. At this time when his strength was weakened, I immediately moved my strength and tied him up so that he could not move a single finger from the wall.
[Asking if you are a hero]
“Nothing to know, just tell him to pass out for a moment.”
[There is no need for that. It looks like Kang Yuna won]
I was planning to subdue the guy and go to Kang Yu-na. However, while she was not aware of it, the wind spirit announced that Yuna Kang had fought against the unknown enemy and won.
“It’s true.”
I saw her catching her breath and coming towards her and she chuckled.
I thought it was an enemy using organic and anomalous powers that would be difficult for an ordinary hunter to deal with, but somehow she overcame it with her own strength.
“Then now is the time for conversation. “Tell him to spit out everything he knows.”
I took the shaking-eyed orc captain out of the wall, threw him down on the floor, trampled him with my feet, and asked the wind spirit to translate.

‘What on earth is this person!?’
When Seunghyeon was in a decisive battle with the Orc captain.
Kang Yu-na, who quickly widened the distance behind her, held up her bow and gritted her teeth. A completely different form of walking and fighting style than the orcs I was familiar with.
As the blade passed before her eyes and slightly cut off her bangs, she broke into a cold sweat and was confident that if she dealt with it like she would deal with an ordinary monster, she would be defeated.
“Hey! “Answer me!”
She tried at least talking. Of course, the other person, who had already been transformed with various spells and magic, was just a doll without an ego, so she could not respond to her words.
‘This is self-defense.’
Hunters who run wild with weapons are no different from monsters. Changing her gaze, she aimed her bow and exerted her own power.
The power of a hunter transplanted with the archery skills of the elves. Her power was compatible with the elves’ unique mana management method, and thanks to this, the arrow became stronger than before.
“Tsk.”
She drew the arrow as far as she could and fired it at the body of the charging enemy. Instead of dodging the arrow, the enemy swung his sword and tried to hit the arrow that became a blue flash.
In fact, among the hunters I killed just before, there was a hunter who attacked from a distance, but it was not difficult to kill him by cutting him down with a sword wrapped in mana.
The problem was that the arrow Kang Yu-na shot was a little different from the arrow of an ordinary hunter.
“!”
The arrow pushed back her sword and, deflecting only slightly, pierced her shoulder. It shattered the rigid tassels around her body and shattered her shoulder in one fell swoop, enough to cause one of her arms to fall off.
While her opponent was staggering, I fired arrows at her opponent in succession, completely severing his breathing.
“I’m glad you’re safe.”
“What are you going to do now?”
She won, but instead of Kang Yu-na being happy, she ran to Seung-hyeon with an impatient heart. However, Seunghyeon had already won and had captured the enemy.
‘This simple…?’
Having experience fighting orcs, she flinched at the sight of him so easily defeating the orc captain who had annihilated a team of A-class hunters.
Seunghyeon, who seemed completely calm, started talking to the orc captain he was trampling.
“We don’t have much time, so let’s just ask a few important questions.”
“Do you think I will answer you, you bastard!”
They communicated with each other through the wind spirit, which could create voices by moving the wind. The orc captain raised his eyes and shouted, unable to lift a finger.
“Kwaaa!!”
“I know that your leader is the commander of the Demon King’s army named Rudgar. “I wonder why you, who are nothing more than a faction, are creeping into this Earth and kidnapping hunters who cannot handle a head-on fight.”
Seunghyeon ignored the orc’s struggles and stomped harder and calmly continued his words. Kang Yoo-na did not even understand what she was saying, but she noticed and watched the scene.
“As expected, did you make a secret pact with Orca, the regent of the new empire?”
“Well, what about that…”
“As expected. “Then, you are the ones who recently opened the gate and tried to attack the Alliance forces.”
The orc, who was struggling in pain, was shocked when Seunghyeon found out about their secret. Because it was a secret that people here would never know.
“What on earth is your purpose? After all, are we going to join hands and divide the continent and the demon world?”
“Woah, it was that Sword Saint who approached us first!”
When Seunghyeon’s eyes flashed, his momentum disappeared and the Orc captain, who was momentarily frightened, spat out without realizing it. Of course, he flinched as if he wanted to spit out the words, but he couldn’t pick up what he had already said.
“Orca first? Why?”
“Of course, he’s a black guy on the inside! Originally, we had no reason or way to care about the continent. “It was he who attacked the hero using the demon king’s sword left there, and it was he who opened the gateway and reopened the connection to the demon world!”
He trembled as he spat out what he knew, as if the incident had already happened.
Seunghyeon froze when he heard that story. The secret of the warrior’s death. Because it was the first time I heard it.
[Orca, he killed the hero? Interesting. Was there any reason to take that risk?]
It was such a shocking fact that even the wind spirit had to say a word.
“Tell me more. “Everything about what your plans are.”
Seunghyeon, who became even colder, took his feet off and lifted his body up. Then, the moment they were at eye level and their eyes met, he was completely overwhelmed by Seunghyeon’s energy and his body trembled.
“Well, I heard they are planning a joint attack. The army that the Sword Saint is moving will move to wipe out those who oppose him on the continent, so we must open the gates accordingly and attack the continent. So the warchief negotiated to throw all the demon forces that were hostile to us there.”

“Oh, yes.”
As I was completely overwhelmed, my words came out more slowly. Thanks to this, Seunghyeon found out about their plans and burst into laughter.
‘Is the empire more sincere? If some of the demonic forces preparing for the invasion are not orcs, maybe there is a way.’
The goal of digging up information that could be helpful to the residents in the flower pot was ultimately achieved. The great secret about the warrior’s death was a bonus.
“Here!”
“This is crazy, how many of them are there?”
A large number of people are approaching along with the cries of people in urgent need.
Those who rushed to help were astonished to see inside where the situation had already ended in a miserable manner. All the orcs were killed, and the hunters who were almost taken away were rescued.
All the credit went to the two people who were ‘passing by’ and rushed to help.
“We meet again like this.”
“I may not understand what you are saying, but I prepared it as a gift, so please take it yourself.”
Seunghyeon tapped the Orc captain, who was lying unconscious, with his foot when Joo Yoon-ah, a hunter from the National Intelligence Service, approached him.
“Do you know anything?”
“No. But don’t worry too much. It won’t be long before things get better.”
In response to her cautious question, Seunghyeon shook his head as he looked at the already closed gate. However, the reason I added that it wouldn’t take long was because there was a high probability that it would actually happen. Once the fight on the other side is over, this problem will naturally be resolved.
