Episode 68 – I need to catch it quickly.
68. I need to catch it quickly.
Chaaa!
Leon’s sword, stuck tightly in place, cuts a long line through the beast’s stomach.
The body of the demonic beast sizzled with the blue sword energy.
Puhwaaa!
Black blood poured out like a torrent of water on Leon’s face.
The sticky, foul smell could have been very unpleasant.
“hahahahaha!”
Leon burst out laughing because he was so happy about tearing the guy to pieces.
However.
Leon’s sliding slowed down to less than 3 seconds.
No matter how fast you set your speed or how slippery the ground is.
The resistance it took to cut through its flesh was enormous.
Still, we were able to engrave a sword image from around his head to a third of his torso.
“Kkeeek!”
A loud roar.
In human terms, it is like a split from the collarbone to the solar plexus.
The pain must have been considerable.
Blame-
Leon withdrew his sword and quickly raised his body from where it had been lying down.
The angry beast began to bend its numerous legs inward.
It was to kill Leon by tearing him from under his stomach.
The part that could be called a foot was the sharp tip.
The human body could be easily penetrated.
Sigh!
A scary situation where the son-in-law is covered with legs the size of a tree.
There is absolutely no room to squeeze through the tight gaps.
“······.”
Leon waited quietly, unfazed.
Next moment.
I’m going to miss it!
The entire gigantic body of the demonic beast was engulfed in a blue electric current.
The splendid brilliance and remnants of mana created the illusion that lightning had struck this place.
This was the magic that Aria was chanting while spreading her barrier to Leon.
That powerful voltage made the demonic beast’s body stiffen for an instant.
The rushing legs stopped in midair and twitched.
Chaaa!
A blue semicircle appeared in front of Leon.
He cut off a couple of bridges to open a path and ran straight outside.
“Keeek!”
The magician became indignant when his stiffness was released a little too late.
Whoa!
A few of its rear joints moved like a tail, swinging sideways towards the fleeing Leon.
A path that sweeps across the entire road in a fan shape.
Paang!
Leon lifted the new model high off the ground.
The magic beast’s swing seemed to pass under him in vain.
Sooooo!
As if he had expected it, he suddenly extended his four legs upward.
Flexibility and freedom of movement thanks to multiple joints.
Sharp blades came at Leon’s feet.
“He’s so clever.”
He sneered and released mana throughout his body.
Paang!
His new model, engulfed in bluish smoke, spun violently in the air.
It looked as if he was punching the air.
Reduce the area hit.
Increasing the speed of gliding by an instant.
It was an art of changing angle, tilt, and direction.
Shiriririk!
Leon exquisitely slipped through the legs that stretched out like bars.
The guy’s attack only barely grazed his outline.
Blame, blame-!
After landing, Leon stepped on the Cheonryeongbo two more times to widen the distance.
And I thought as I brushed off the dirt on my sword.
‘It won’t be difficult to hit just like that.’
Even after receiving serious wounds, he was still alive and well.
It appears to have excellent physical strength and even regenerative power.
The blood flowing from my stomach is already stopping.
The cross section of the cut leg was also writhing and forming flesh.
Then.
‘I’ll have to split the head first.’
I have no choice but to aim for the head, which is the common vital location of living creatures.
However, there are a bunch of tentacles and horns attached to the mouth.

And it won’t be easy because of the two large claws that tightly guard the area.
That doesn’t mean you can’t catch it.
I wouldn’t know if I was alone.
I’m with Aria, but there’s no way I could be defeated by a guy like that.
If I took the time, I could cut it into pieces.
However.
‘It seems like it would take too much time.’
Just a few seconds ago.
An energy that stimulated Leon’s senses spread out from inside the city.
Probably the blood donation group launched the attack.
But I see that no sound is coming out of the communicator.
I could guess that it was either a very urgent situation, or that they were pulling some kind of trick.
“Well, I have no choice but to catch it as quickly as possible.”
After briefly concluding, Leon glanced at Aria across from her.
She must have been thinking similarly, so she immediately nodded her head.
Leon and Aria were facing off with the magic beast between them.
“Kii Iik······.”
The guy let out a faint groan and looked back and forth between him.
A cautious look that is not appropriate for his size.
The question is who is more threatening, a person who uses a sword or a person who uses lightning.
Pajijijijijijik!
Aria relieved that worry.
A lump of dark mana emerged from both her hands.
An electrifying energy that continuously sends out blue sparks.
As soon as the falling rainwater touched the energy, it turned into pure white smoke.
“Kiik!”
The head of the wandering beast was fixed.
Captivated by a creepy feeling, the guy threw his body at Aria as if she were having a seizure.
Haaaeaeaeak!
A whip the size of a house made an arc and flew towards a small human.
“Deus cali van bandeum······.”
Aria’s lips touched a few times.
Her eyes had a mysterious glow.
Her moist, straight hair floated high and fluttered.
Her arms stretched forward as if to push away an approaching demonic beast.
Kwajijijijijijijijijik-!!!
The mighty power of Mother Nature was manifested at Aria’s fingertips.
The densely concentrated energy was radiated and fragmented the space.
Dozens of zigzag zigzag zigzag lines were entangled and attacked by the demonic beast.
“Keeek!”
The bastard reflexively crossed his claws in an X shape.
Pajijijijijijik-!
The lightning was unable to withstand the chelicerae’s hard exoskeleton and died out.
However.
No matter how large your feet are.
Unless it is a complete shield, there are bound to be gaps.
The current that escaped between the two narrow angles hit him directly in the face.
“Keeek!”
The man, whose eyes and mouth were completely burned, was writhing in pain.
More than half of the tentacle bundle was burned and lost its length.
In the meantime.
The guy didn’t slow down his speed to crush Aria.
Aria calmly activated the blink magic she was chanting.
Pasing-
Her new type, which lightly leaped through space, disappeared.
Quarrr!
The demonic beast left deep furrows in the bare ground.
“Good job!”
Leon shouted, jumping up and down the bastard’s back.
The guy was still unable to straighten his body properly, as the blow he received a little while ago was extremely painful.
Blame, blame, blame!
Leon started running along his long body from near the tail to the head.
Even though it was bumpy, shaky, heaving, and winding.
He was delicately balanced with a well-trained sense of balance, and ran over it as if it were flat ground.
It only took a few seconds to reach the nape of the neck.
Not even a single shell is covered.
A neck where the cervical vertebrae are clearly exposed through the crack that connects the head and body.
It was a clear weakness.
Leon held his sword in reverse.
Then she raised the sword high with both hands and slashed straight down.
Squid-!
A sword falling downward.
The name of the sword resonates with the will and the sword energy increases.
‘Gotcha…!’
It was then that the magic beast’s arms began to wriggle violently.
Wooooo
Strange waves spread out from the tentacles in concentric circles.
The air in the area is shaking.
Disturbing all the pouring rain.
It was a wave that disrupted the flow of all energy, including mana.
“······!”
Leon’s whole body stiffened as if petrified.
The energy and blood were overturned.
My five senses were all jumbled and confused.
I lost all strength in my limbs.
It felt like a big bell was ringing inside my head.
It was natural for a sword that was falling down to lose its strength.
Since the mana could not be used, the sword attached to her sword body suddenly disappeared.
Leon barely managed to strengthen his grip and not let go of the sword.
The demonic beast suddenly shook its body.
Like a cowboy falling out of a rodeo.
Leon, who was half-suppressed, bounced off without resistance.
Leon’s vision, flying in the air, showed a demon desperately trying to use his legs to escape in one direction.
As I reached the ground, control slowly returned to my body.
Pabababak!
After rolling and landing on the ground, he quickly caught his breath and used his mana.
Inhale and exhale once.
In no time, the flow of energy normalized and sensation returned.
“f*ck, what is this?”
Leon cursed in despair.
Although it is a short period of time, about 2 to 3 seconds.
Can you disable an expert intermediate level drone to this extent?
It was truly an amazing ability.
“Master!”
Aria was also swept up in the wave.
She quickly escaped suppression by spinning her circle and called out to Leon with her round resin eyes.
“Are you okay?!”
“I’m fine! But first, I need to catch that bastard quickly!”
Leon shouted as he saw the demon beast frantically running away, fearing for his life.
He immediately turned on the light in his eyes and began to step on Cheonryeongbo.
Because he is.
We were heading towards the city center of Freeville.
