A Stuffed Cheonma in my Head - Chapter 60



Only Noblemtl

Episode 060. The Playground of Demons

* * *

It was a strange thing.

What caught my eye more than the flashing blade approaching was the water droplets hitting it.

I saw water droplets hitting the blade break into smaller droplets and bounce off.

Hmm. That was strange.

The water droplets bounced off the sharp blade, but were never cut.

Suddenly, I turned my wrist holding the sword so that the blade was pointing upward.

A drop of water fell on the blade.

But it just broke, not split cleanly in half.

Why is that?

[Do you want to know?]

I nodded.

Cheonma advised.

[Try to fight them without raising your sword.]

“Then can you tell?”

[maybe.]

Thud thud thud.

They came running through the rain.

“Hahaha!”

“Kill him!”

“The one who kills first is the owner!”

The words they were chattering sounded deafening.

It was as if I was the only one watching them from underwater.

It didn’t feel real.

I swung my sword without loading the aura on it, as Cheonma had said.

Kagang!

The black one was blocked right away.

The first one to reach me smiled with his teeth exposed.

It was ugly to look at because his teeth were all missing.

“Kuuuuuu! I’ll take the dagger!”

Just as he was about to shake off my sword and attack, my sword slid across his sword.

It looked like a drop of water falling on a blade and running down.

Squeak!

The flowing sword strike passed through the bastard’s wrist.

“……uh?”

The guy who was so focused on switching to the attack realized too late that his wrist was cut off.

Phew!

Blood spurted out.

The bastard dropped his sword.

“Eww―”

Phew!

I put my sword into the mouth of the guy who was trying to scream.

I saw the bastard’s eyes roll back and then pulled out my sword.

Choaack!

The bastard fell, blood spraying out.

“Whoa!”

Then a second guy came.

The bastard was holding a long spear, and before he could even get to me, he took advantage of the spear’s strengths and stabbed me with a long thrust.

The spear came flying like an arrow shot from the window.

To me, the sharp tip of the spear flying straight at me appeared only as a circular circle.

After that, the handle of the spear was barely visible, which was a very clean stab.

The circle grew bigger and bigger.

I quietly held out my sword towards the growing circle before my eyes.

Bang!

The tip of the sword and the tip of the spear met.

To be exact, the tip of my sword hit a spot slightly off the tip of the spear.

Kagakak!

The direction of the spear tip is misaligned.

The window passed by my ear.

On the other hand, the tip of my sword did not lose its direction.

He waited for the owner of the spear without moving an inch from the place where he first put out his sword.

“……uh?”

The guy who charged with the spear jumped onto the sword on his own.

The tip of my sword was pointed at the bastard’s neck from the beginning.

“Huh!”

The guy was also quite an accomplished swordsman, so he quickly twisted his body to dodge the sword.

But the tip of my sword did not forget its target.

My sword moved along with the bastard.

Crunch!

The bastard’s head fell off, spurting blood.

The headless body fell over at the same speed it had been running at.

“You idiots!”

The third guest approached, giggling.

From this point on, I slowly stepped back.

Because after that, other guys started coming in waves all at once.

This guy was holding a large, wheel-shaped weapon.

However, unlike other cart wheels, it had sharp blades attached to its perimeter.

A weapon called a wheel. I think I’ve heard it somewhere.

Like water droplets on the eaves, raindrops hung at the edge of the day and fell on me just as the man swung his weapon.

Originally, I was going to strike the flying wheel to shake off the water droplets and then stab its neck, but as if possessed, I held my sword up to the flying raindrops.

As expected, the water droplets did not break but rather shattered and bounced off.

How can a water drop be cut without breaking?

I thought that if I cut the water droplets cleanly, this dirty feeling would get a little better.

The wheel that sent the water droplets at the end first arrived a step late.

Bang!

Is it a cartwheel after all?

The sword bounced off, unable to withstand the brute force contained in the wheel.

“Hahaha!”

The guy laughed heartily.

The bastard’s cartwheel deflected the sword and flew straight towards my chest.

I didn’t reject the force that deflected the sword, but embraced it and leaned my upper body back.

Wagging!

The wheel passed through the air.

He shifted his center of gravity back, placed both arms on the ground, and kicked his feet up, striking the bastard’s chest.

puck!

I felt something bursting at the top of my foot.

“100 million?”

The guy who had been moving around freely froze.

I jumped up and swung my sword, separating the bastard’s head from his upper body.

Crunch!

He kicked the body of the bastard who had lost his master and threw it at the men chasing him, and at the same time, the recoil caused his body to bounce back.

This moment passed by in an instant.

He ran away with the wind wrapped around his whole body.

Because they were coming in waves.

Wedge!

An arrow flew from somewhere.

I turned my head and checked the flying arrow.

Maybe it was because it flew too fast.

There was no water drop on the arrow.

He held the annoying arrow in his hand with all his might and struck the side of the arrowhead as if he was slapping someone in the face.

match!

It caught the eye of some guy who was chasing me.

The other guys who saw that giggled and chased after me.

If I had wanted to, I could have shaken them off and run away.

They were still laughing and hadn’t learned how to cut through the water droplets, so I ran at a controlled pace.

And whenever the lead narrowed to one or two, he would pause for a moment and swing his sword, taking out one or two at a time.

After eliminating the guys who occasionally chased me, I realized that all the guys I had killed so far were mana users.

There were no guys wrapped in aura during the military service.

Now that I look at it, those who could wrap their auras around their swords were deliberately left behind.

It seemed like he was going to kill me after seeing my skill in taking out the three previous guys in an instant, and he was going to kill me once my stamina was depleted.

Or maybe he’s just waiting to kill me when the other guys kill me and get the dagger.

Hmm. As expected, an Aura user.

They were clever guys.

Swish-

It was raining.

I ran through the rain like a dog in heat, gradually eliminating the ones chasing me.

Then, I caught the rainwater that fell every now and then with the blade of the knife.

The blade still couldn’t cut through the water droplets.

I used the mirror to look at the pursuers, then suddenly turned around and drew my sword.

“Dead!”

A sword was thrust into my heart.

I put my sword under it, then lifted it up in a flash and let it slide out.

Swish!

After deflecting the attack upwards like that, he quickly swung his sword back down in the air.

Phew!

The sword went deep between the bastard’s neck and shoulder and then came out.

Judging from the sensation in my hand, it seemed like it had stabbed me all the way to my heart and then escaped.

The bastard’s eyes lost focus and he fell to the ground.

“Got it!”

Buck! Buck!

Another guy came right up to me and after clashing swords five times I was able to stick my sword into his neck.

I dealt with the two guys, then turned around and ran again just before the wave caught up to me.

A wave of various weapons passed precariously through the place where I was.

“This kid is squirming like a loach!”

“If you get caught, you’re screwed.”

All sorts of screams could be heard from behind.

The situation where it takes longer and longer to deal with them.

This means that most of the remaining debris has now fallen away.

Actually, it was a bit unfair to call them stragglers.

Before I knew it, the number of guys chasing me had decreased considerably.

Come to think of it, at some point the arrows stopped flying.

I took a quick look at where the arrow had come from and saw a bloodstain on the roof.

I clicked my tongue inwardly.

‘… … I told you to stay far away.’

At that moment, the sound of wind cutting through the air was heard ahead.

Phew!

A large hammer was flying from the sky ahead.

Since it was coming down from quite far ahead, if I kept running at this speed, I would get hit there and my head would break like a tofu.

In fact, I could have avoided it by increasing my speed and running at full speed, but I decided to go with the flow.

Crunch!

I immediately stopped, planting my foot on the ground as I was about to step forward.

A normal person would have broken their ankles immediately, but I was caught in the capricious wind of the rainstorm and suffered no particular problems.

There was a thud in front of me and the ground shook.

Rainwater and mud splashed.

I checked the protagonist who struck the hammer.

It was the guy wearing the beast skin I saw earlier.

The guy looked at me and smirked.

That attack was more intended to stop me than to break my head.

In any case, the bastard’s intention was successful.

Behind them, waves were crashing in, and in front, a beast-like hammer was blocking the way.

It’s safe to say that we’re surrounded.

The hammer beast man looked at me with one corner of his mouth raised as if to ask what he was going to do now.

‘What should I do?’

I took the dagger out of my bosom and waved it above my head.

“Do you want this?”

For a moment, their attention was focused on me.

I threw the dagger high into the gloomy, rain-pouring sky.

“Take it.”

* * *

It was chaos.

The rain poured down as if the sky had opened up, and the blood they had created formed a sticky slush.

The men’s evil screams echoed through the sound of the rain.

The process of killing and dying was repeated.

The arm of the man holding the dagger was cut off, and his head was cut off.

Then, the one holding the dagger swung the sword here and there, seemingly defending himself for a moment, but then he was attacked by other men and collapsed.

The man who snatched the dagger from the man ran away for about ten meters, but then fell over after getting his stomach pierced by a flying spear.

The men who followed him surrounded him and started killing him again, creating another bloody quagmire.

“Hehehe.”

Blood-soaked demons were floundering in the mud.

What the hell is that?

I watched the scene from afar with my arms crossed, then held out my sword and split the falling raindrops.

As expected, the raindrops burst without splitting.

Again. Again. Again.

As I was repeating this, a beast-skinned man who had been watching the ugly demons from a distance asked me with a smirk.

“What are you doing?”

I replied without stopping the raindrops.

“Cutting raindrops.”

The beast skin man chuckled.

“That crazy guy.”

I replied, continuing to try to ward off the raindrops.

“Those who don’t know the true value of cutting raindrops should go out and fight.”

The man asked.

“What is the true value?”

I answered.

“I don’t know either.”

The man chuckled.

“You crazy kid.”

At a glance, it seemed like this guy was the one who brought the devils.

But I wasn’t really curious about what he did.

Because if you kill me, that’s the end of it.

I asked the beast skin man as I continued to try to ward off the raindrops.

“Why don’t you play with me?”

The man shrugged.

“Just. I’m going to play later.”

“okay?”

“Why are you just watching? That toy is yours.”

I nodded.

“yes.”

Only then did I stop slashing the raindrops and look at the mud where the bastards were fighting.

All kinds of yelling, swearing, and screaming were going on in the playground.

“They’re having fun.”

If I kill all those demons, will I learn how to cut raindrops?

It was something unknown.

Before you try it.

Chul-chul.

I said as I headed to the playground.

“Play first.”

“Okay.”

I grabbed my toys and ran into the demons’ playground.

“Include me too.”

Swish-

In the rain, I was hanging out with demons.

I was so absorbed in my thoughts that I instinctively swung my sword.

Cut, dodge, block, cut, cut, stab.

To me, it felt not much different from dancing under the moonlight.

Then suddenly I looked at the black cotton fabric with rain and blood flowing down it.

The man reflected in the cool sword was smiling.
