Cardboard Houses Do Not Tear - Cardboard Houses Do Not Tear chapter 146

146 – The price I deserve

―Grognaak!

Wounded and enraged, he started strutting at me in a vicious way.

Kobolds, dwarves, goblins, humans.

The limbs of numerous species attached to the body flew in an unpredictable trajectory.

The ‘perception’ built up with the blood of the forgotten was just a cry for avoidance. The image of the goblin torn apart like a snack was still good in his eyes.

That’s why, for the first time that saggy, muscular arm was pulled out, I was grateful and just teased my body.

How many times did he roll on the ground like that?

Thump!

After avoiding the stampede, I rolled to the ground again, then quickly stood up and grabbed the elongated Morning Star with both hands.

―That’s right…

“Damn it, if you have that many arms, you’ll be washing dishes in a restaurant, why are you targeting people-“

f*ck!

One of the arms that had been hit directly by the reflexively swung Morning Star was bent at a bizarre angle.

But the mace got caught in the arm bone and could not be retrieved.

Then I saw a red-stained hand beside me greedily laid on top of the sack, entangled in it.

It was dangerous if he got a weapon. He pulled out the arming sword hung from his waist and struck a twig.

Pak, Pak, Pak!

―That’s right!

While the red hand, half its length, convulsed. I managed to retrieve my weapon and widen the distance.

I endured the trembling of my hands from the crisis and looked at him.

“After.”

A one-handed sword in the left hand and a long-handled mace in the other.

It’s a fairly unbalanced combination, but the one who dedicated an arm that had sprouted from his body in an instant lowered his stance as if nervous and growled.

An attitude like that of a beast. I said, holding out the mace in my hand.

“Even if you appeal like that, you can’t come out of my nightmares. It’s like an assortment of biological pieces.”

Even though the words he spat out to relieve tension were overshadowed, the inside of the muddy Gambison was already drenched in sweat.

There was no signal or news on the fence.

I hoped that they had gone to prepare a ‘plan’ instead of running away, and I just took my posture again.

―aaa!!

Thump, thump, thump!

His hands trembled at the force of his run, literally plowing the ground.

―Pee-Pip!

An arrow stuck in his foot.

A few arrows sprouted from the guy’s body, but it wasn’t enough to stop the furious monster’s charge.

From above, one of the adventurers shouted to hold on a little longer.

A situation where you don’t even know how much that ‘little bit’ is or his weakness. But what had to be done remained unchanged.

Boom!

By quickly backing away, I gained one step away from him. But I couldn’t earn more than that.

The red-stained hands and soles of my feet that ran before me knew it.

-Tung!

Through that thread-like gap, I could see a prianian’s bolt driven right above his left eye.

Thanks to that, the monster’s grip slipped to my side. The spilled blood seems to have confused his sense of distance.

In between.

“……!”

Hwaaak.

A wall of smoke rose out of nowhere, blocking him and me. The young lady’s skill was evident.

Like a scene from a horror movie, red hands rushed through the wall as if they were dragging them to hell.

However, hands were not his exclusive possession, and he had plenty of time to prepare.

Shhh!

As soon as he fell back, he swiftly struck down the sword and mace with his outstretched hand.

Quad Deuk!

Thanks to the blessing of revitalization, the two attacks split the skin of the creature and scattered drops of blood.

The wall that had been shimmering like smoke was diluted with the blood, and our eyes met again.

The sudden reunion paused for a while.

―Gruaaagh!

Hooung!

An arm with exceptionally sharp claws cut through the air.

I quickly fell back, but I couldn’t avoid Gambison being slightly ripped off.

“Crazy.”

“Shoot!!”

A rain of arrows rained down from above again to keep them in check.

Huddeuk!!

The guy who couldn’t stop the rain of arrows because he had nothing to cover hurriedly covered his face with his hands.

I ran slightly outside the middle of the barrier I had fallen on.

The mass that saw it screamed again and chased after it. But I had no intention of moving any further.

I naturally stanceed and prepared to face him.

“This is your grave. You’re a psycho bastard who makes sujebi with raw goblin flesh.”

―Kugeaaa!!

The guy’s feet started to spur. As if asking for a hug.

But I didn’t have the bad taste to open my arms to a guy like that.

“Wow!”

That’s why they were only greeted with iron swords and maces.

– Kwakdeuk!

With a destructive sound, a trail dyed in red bloomed between me and then faded.

I almost had my weapon stolen by him once. Because we focused on defense instead of attack, we didn’t make two mistakes.

A sword held at an angle to deflect attacks that cut diagonally like the claws of a beast.

Walking and striking with a mace holding a long handle for fists or feet thrown out like a martial art.

However, the number of hands he had was insufficient.

Pooh!

Scars like scars began to form on Gambison one by one. Maybe scratched

But it was enough to check the condition after killing him, and I couldn’t step back from here.

How long did they last?

Kikkik.

As the door of the wooden fence opened, adventurers with long spears came running.

It was a scheduled appointment because I couldn’t fix him on my own, and at the same time it was a signal that the plan was ready.

“No. 1 Formation! Don’t ever come close!”

The man who had been running at the front holding a spear raised one of his fingers and shouted, waving it. He was the leader who wore blonde hair.

Perhaps because the opponent was a monster, the contrast between the group consisting of only adventurers and no vigilantes was not bad.

As if in preparation for the effect of the shouting I heard earlier, all of them covered their ears with cotton or beeswax, and they moved using hand signals that I could not understand.

When one person throws a spear, the other person on the other side falls back slightly to lure it in, and when the balance is disturbed, it throws it back and drives it back.

An act of restraining oneself as if chasing a beast. But for now, that was enough.

Anyway, the means I had in mind to kill him were neither a spear nor a mace.

“Oops. Huh.”

From noble mtl dot com

In the meantime, I fell behind to catch my breath, and the blond-haired leader who was conducting them for a long time turned to me and asked.

“G-House-san, are you okay!”

‘f*ck, are you okay?’

When I answered by waving the knife in his hand, he focused on driving the guy down again with the spear still in his hand.

Adventurers who brought a pitchfork or a spear that they would have borrowed from the vigilante instead of the short sword they usually carried did not allow him to approach.

After a moment’s careless adventurer was caught and almost brought to the brink of extinction. They just stabbed their spears from afar, almost as if they were dying.

Woojik.

An ominous sound came from the wooden fence, but the adventurers couldn’t hear it. I gave a hand signal to one of the adventurers who made eye contact with me.

After seeing him nod. Again he took the Morning Star and headed towards the gnome. Now is the time to see the end.

However, the wooden fence made only ominous noises, and unlike I thought, it did not collapse as quickly.

As if hearing a crackle, he briefly turned his head toward the wall.

It was an opportunity.

Quad Deuk!

―Kureaa!!

“Where are you looking, you bastard.”

After quickly hitting him with a morning star on one of the legs he was supporting.

I reflexively avoided the incoming attack and shouted as loud as I could.

“Put a spear on that bastard!”

At that shout, the adventurers threw their spears into his legs with all their might.

Five polearms sharpened to the extreme for just one shot pierced his feet and ground.

And as soon as he could confirm that he was anchored on land, he immediately sprang in all directions.

It was because I knew that if I went according to my plan, the wall in front of us would soon collapse due to the caustic sprayed on the wooden fence joints.

Unfortunately for him, Plan A was still in effect.

―Keuaaagh!!

“Even if you can withstand the fall, you won’t be able to withstand that one.”

I assure you, if you are still alive after being hit by that, it would be a wise choice to just write down your will.

“Goodbye. Live strong even in hell.”

After smiling at the guy who grabbed his bizarrely bent leg, he was about to run out of the danger zone.

Jumping. I felt resistance in my back.

“Huh?”

The longest arm he didn’t use until the end. Those muscular arms were holding my Gambison.

‘How.’ For a while, I was able to infer the reason.

Kkuduk, kkuduk.

“Ha, f*ck. I didn’t think of playing it.”

“Mr. G-House!”

“Come out soon!”

I heard the sound of the other party on the fence, and I tried to get out of his hands.

But as if he put all his energy into it, he never let go even though the blood flowed from his arm with the bone protruding from it.

―Kreuk, Kreuk, Kreuk…

At the sound of that mocking laugh, I raised my mace and struck it down on my arm.

Pak, Pak, Pak!

“f*ck, why is this so tough!”

I tossed Morning Star to the floor, drew a knife, and struck it down.

Quack!

Kiyi…

The coffin lid of twenty huge logs could be heard slowly reeling.

It’s only holding on because of the joints that haven’t been cut yet, but that won’t last long either.

“G-house mercenary!”

“G-House!”

Kwadeuk. Kwadeuk!!

“f*ck the dog!”

I don’t know what his arms are made of, but his bones haven’t been cut at all. There was only a terrible grin on the face of the poodle in pain.

It was a smile as if he had found a companion on the road to the underworld.

“G House! Please come out!”

In that situation, an idea suddenly came to my mind.

I quickly rummaged around my waist and pulled out a red glass bottle, then opened the lid and sprayed it on him.

Chack!

―Greuek…? Gua…

Then, the man whose face had been smacked with troll blood began to loosen slightly.

I don’t know the English language, but it’s like a cat licking catnip, and it’s starting to come to its senses.

‘f*ck, is this going to happen?’

He struggled again with all his might, in the grip of the one who was looser than before.

Fluttering.

“Kuu!”

As soon as I fell to the ground, I heard a terrible howl coming from the corroded metal.

The shadow over his head quickly began to thicken, so he ran outside, holding only the Morning Star lying next to him.

Tadadak!!

―!!!!

The guy behind his back was talking about something, but it didn’t matter.

Catch up…

His hair began to stand on end at the scream of the log. A fear that seemed like my head would be crushed at any moment engulfed my body.

We’re almost there!

“Cybaaar!!!”

“-!!”

Quaaang!

***

Everything is back to normal.

Stands that were disheveled or collapsed once again contained products, and the faces of people who were engulfed in fear and anxiety began to show the boredom of everyday life.

As if nothing had happened, this little village was trying to show what we had seen the day before.

If only that wooden fence were to be restored, it would surely be so.

-One, two!

-Three! Listen properly!! If I can’t fix it within today, I won’t be able to sleep!

I heard a command to set up a wooden fence from far away, but my body couldn’t stand properly.

Took.

“Ouch.”

“G-House mercenary, I must have told you many times to save yourself!”

Right now, I was lying face down on the bed at the inn and being scolded by Priest Rien.

It was a fair price for me.
