Episode 70 – Just do that and die.
70. Just do that and die.
“If you don’t want to fall, crawl out right now!!!”
······.
At the same time as Leon finished speaking.
The new form of the demonic beast has arrived at the house located in the very vicinity of the castle.
From Noble mtl dot com
The guy was swinging his terribly heavy claws around indiscriminately.
Quaaa!!
The second floor of the house that was caught in the narrow angle disappeared completely.
The remains of wood and bricks scatter colorfully.
Among them, no human body fragments or blood were seen.
Is that why?
He didn’t stop there.
Quaaang! Wow! Boom!
Like a dog looking for a buried bone.
It swings its two front legs so violently that it shatters even the first floor of the remaining house.
“”······!””
Leon and Aria felt something in that action and their eyes widened.
Pasing-.
Aria immediately used blink magic and fell out of Leon’s arms.
Paang-!
Leon once again rushed at a speed that exceeded his limits.
* · * *
The demonic beast discovered something and its rampage stopped.
“Keeeik!”
The guy who let out a tearing cry immediately lowered his head.
Long tentacles extending out somewhere.
What we reached at the end.
“aaaH!”
Hugging each other’s bodies.
Young men, women, and children gathered together.
It was a family of three, consisting of a husband and wife and their daughter.
“Ugh, ugh!”
The man dropped the crude wooden club he was holding.
The child burst into tears.
The woman hugged her husband and child.
A terrible, indescribable feeling of fear overtook them.
The family double- and triple-blocked the entire house.
He was hiding in the safest and most secret basement.
I never dreamed that there would be a monster that would lift an entire house.
“aaahhh!”
They could do nothing as they watched the approaching march of tentacles.
I just shed tears and scream.
The stiff body only trembled and did not move as intended.
The fear of death paralyzed my mind.
The visual of the grotesque-looking large monster was so overwhelming and shocking.
To the being who destroys the house like a toy.
How can a mere human respond?
They closed their eyes tightly.
We held each other’s hands for the last time.
Slippery tentacles wrapped around my entire body.
The first form of Jecheon Geombeop (制天劍法), Yeomyeong (黎明).
It was then that a brilliant light spread.
The sunset that we couldn’t see due to the heavy rain over the past two days.
It was a dazzling twilight that could not have occurred at this time and weather.
“······?”
They lifted their closed eyelids without even realizing it.
I saw it.
“KIeeeK!!!”
A bunch of tentacles cut in half and flying away, spraying bodily fluids.
The demon beast is scared and turns backwards.
And the back of a boy holding a blazing blue sword.
“······Ah, ah?”
A sight that makes you doubt reality.
Dazed, they recalled the voice they had just heard.
– I am Leon Crusip!
Crusiv.
Is there anyone in the empire who does not know that name?
It was a name that seemed far-reaching and distant to those who were just commoners.
Why is someone like that here?
– I have arrived personally to punish the evil lurking here!
No way, really?
“Kkeeek!”
Let the demon beast run away with a roar.
“Ah, that bastard.”
The boy muttered vulgarly.
As if he was trying to give chase, he bent his knees and stopped.
And he spoke while taking a glimpse of his family.
The two eyes that were glimpsed for a moment were emitting a red glow.
“There you are.”
“Eh, yeah?!”
“Until you catch that thing, don’t get caught up and stay far away.”
Quang!
The boy who spoke quickly disappeared like the wind.
Their eyes, as ordinary people, could not even capture the afterimage.
Wind pressure and dust blowing with heavy drinking.
And only the large footprints created by the hollowing out of the place where he stood proved that he was there.
“······.”
I was dumbfounded.
He calmly says that he will catch that monster alone, as if it were natural.
But the superhuman inaction and momentum are enough to make it understandable.
I’ve only seen it in books.
I only heard about it through stories.
I drew it only in my imagination.
An awe-inspiring battle between beings far outside the realm of criminals.
The tremors in their bodies subsided.
My heavy breathing calmed down.
Staggering to their feet, they climbed out of the completely destroyed building, leaving no bones behind.
I turned my head to where the roar and lights erupted.
[Yaaa!!! You guys, don’t just sit there and get out of the way!!!]
aaa! Kuuung-!
[KIeeeICK!!!]
Far away.
Every time the light flickered, there were two new types jumping over the city.
A gigantic centipede with countless wriggling legs.
Compared to that, it is so small.
A figure wielding a blue flame sword and shooting out a burst of red eye light.
They stood there and watched as if they were fascinated.
Fight against evil monsters.
The appearance of a hero.
* · * *
Jecheongeombeop (制天劍法) 2nd form, modification.
Cheonunjincheon (千雲進天).
Quad dudddddddduk!
The dazzling trajectory flew fluttering and landed on the black backboard.
Black fluid oozed out from the cracked and broken shell.
Five or six legs were broken into pieces and lost their shape.
Kuijijijijijijijik!
It was almost at the same time that heaven’s condemnation poured down.
The lightning bolt split into several branches and bombarded all areas.
Immense force that paralyzes muscles.
The demon beast fell from the top of the burning building, emitting acrid smoke.
“Keeek…!”
It wriggled on the floor like an earthworm.
Leon, who was gliding while holding his sword backwards, looked closely at the corner of the guy’s mouth and shouted.
“Aria!”
“Yes!”
Chiiiiing-!!!
An unknown magic wave generated from the tentacles swept the area.
It is a wavelength that has an exquisite effect of making the head shake and strengthening the body.
Leon and Aria had already covered themselves with a barrier.
The wave could not penetrate the circular shield at all.
They learned how to respond after being beaten several times.
There was a preparatory action before firing the wave.
All you had to do was watch out for the moment when the tentacles began to writhe strangely and turn into strange colors.
Thanks to you, I was able to avoid becoming paralyzed.
It was inevitable that we would have to wait inside the barrier while the wave spread.
Quadadadadadada-!
The strategy of shooting a wave and running away at the moment of danger was working effectively.
Thanks to you, time continues to drag on.
For some unknown reason, he keeps trying to find citizens and eat them.
Leon and Aria were chasing that guy while stopping him at the same time.
Even if you count roughly, the number of buildings that have already been destroyed is close to fifty.
Still, there were no casualties.
Leon always arrives on time.
His shout had an effect, and citizens came out of their hiding places one by one and took refuge.
There isn’t much left now.
It seemed like his magic wave was an ability with a clear limit.
As time goes on, the cycle gets longer and the effectiveness decreases.
Also, due to the constant pounding, the wounds accumulating on his body were increasing.
This is probably because as physical strength decreases, regenerative power also decreases.
“Oh, that bastard really.”
Leon waited for the aftermath of the wave to subside and was fed up with the ongoing chase.
“I think we should hurry. “There is still no news from the other groups.”
Aria added with sunken eyes.
“Okay, let’s finish it quickly.”
Like that.
A similar process was repeated several times.
In no time, the demonic beast was driven to the central square.
It was the exact center of Freeville, the square where the tallest building, the clock tower, was located.
“Kiik, kiik!”
The guy was in dire condition.
More than a third of the bridge was blown away.
Black bodily fluid pouring from all over the body.
Some segments of the posterior segment were completely cut off.
Nevertheless, his desire to survive was truly great, and he still tried to struggle.
From Noble mtl dot com
The guy desperately started climbing up the clock tower.
To a higher place, to a higher place.
There wasn’t even a good reason why I was climbing there.
I move with just the will to escape from this place.
The cool-headed hunter he had disappeared from nowhere.
There is only one animal left that longs for life.
“Aria, give me a footrest.”
“Yes.”
Jijijijijijing!
Dozens of force fields the size of one foot were created in front of Leon.
The shape forms steep steps at wide intervals.
The direction of the stairs was towards the top of the clock tower.
Leon felt the end.
And then I moved to see the end.
Blame, blame, blame, blame!
He began to climb the path that Aria had laid down.
At the same time, the sword was slowly moved.
Jecheongeombeop (制天劍法) 3rd form, Heukunilsa (黑雲一社).
Noble and arrogant.
An elegant trajectory is drawn in a circular rotation.
The movement of stepping on the steps became like a noble dance move.
His new form roaming in the air performed a restrained sword dance.
Accordingly, the surrounding energy began to converge through swordplay.
The traces embroidering the air are gradually increasing.
The mana of space is concentrated at one point.
The whirlwind-like suction power sucked everything in.
As Leon got closer to the sky, the pressure of the sword in his hand increased.
Soon, it was time to climb halfway up the clock tower.
He was leading a storm.
Quaaa!!
The storm was insatiable and greedily grew in size.
The space around his sword appears distorted.
The blue vortex spun to an incredible size.
Immediately, Leon raised his sword high.
Then.
Even the dark clouds above the sky began to roll in.
The inky sky gathered in one place.
Sparkle! Flash, flash!
It was as if it were a lightning rod.
Lightning struck from the sky and fell continuously on the sword.
The more it happened, the more power Leon had condensed.
He reaches the top of the tower.
Let the head of the demonic beast that successfully climbed climb up at the same time.
For Leon, the sword that would kill him was ready.
The ceaseless lightning illuminates the area as if it were daytime.
The thundering sound continued as if it were going to destroy heaven and earth.
That amazing sight.
It happened at the highest place that can be seen from anywhere in Freeville.
All the citizens who came outside were watching.
A huge monster with a terrible appearance.
Standing firmly in front of him.
“Just do that and die.”
The image of Leon slashing his sword against the storm and sky.
It was like a scene from a myth.
It was indeed the overwhelming majesty of a hero.
“””······!”””
Citizens’ eyes are turning red.
My heart became warm.
Without realizing it, my arms were raised upward.
The wide-open mouths were crying out in cheers.
Now I live.
Everyone, it’s over.
Tears of emotion and emotion flowed.
Lurking in the hearts of citizens.
Fear and horror.
Everything has disappeared.
