I Became the Weakest Summoned of the Genius Summoner - Chapter 518
518 – Clash With the Shinigami
The work was easy because there was no harm to the minions and evil spirits even if there was no need to express the will not to cause damage.
At the place where the sanctuary was set up, only Hwang Tae-wook and Mari were left behind, and the other five demons and I moved to a simple building a long way away and hid ourselves.
“You guys will be scolded if you move even a little bit until I give you the signal.”
“”Yes! Master!””
“Don’t even make a sound! Are you stupid?”
“”Eup······.””
How long did I wait with the devils who turned to stone at my criticism?
‘Come…! I’m glad I came before the mimicry ended. But that b*stard. You even rode a vehicle that doesn’t work.’
Buuung──
From noble mtl dot come
There was a reaper on a small vehicle emitting light blue smoke.
Among the inventions made by the dwarves, the ‘Skycraft’ was a flying vehicle that was evaluated as a rare failure.
The invention of an aircraft powered by magic attribute was truly groundbreaking, but I believe it quickly disappeared because its efficiency was so poor.
‘I know it’s a model that hasn’t even sold a few units, but it’s running well.’
That alone gave us a glimpse of how vast his greatest magical power was.
-What…? Is something strange? What the hell are you talking about?
The ‘Reaper’ on an aircraft tilts his head as he approaches the factory.
Although it was still a long way from the factory, something was immediately detected.
After taking a walk around the factory, the envoy flew straight to Hwang Tae-wook and asked.
– Hey, Hwang Tae-wook. What? The factory is on fire. Why are you here? Please explain as concisely as possible what happened.
‘You find it very quickly. It seems like he doesn’t just have the ability to smell… Could it be that they installed some kind of device on Hwang Tae-wook?’
The reaction was fast enough to raise such suspicion. I’ll have to take a closer look when I get home.
– Taehyung Jeong! A big problem has arisen. I’ll explain it to you, so come down for a moment.
Hwang Tae-wook did not hesitate to mention the real name of the ‘reaper’ and announced that it was an emergency situation different from usual.
The Shinigami, who was already feeling an ominous feeling, must have realized what had really happened, and slowly fell to the ground, clutching his forehead.
– Ha… Taewook. It’s Marie. What should I do with you kites? Huh? I’ve wanted to slice you into small pieces more than once. Do you really not know why you have endured this long?
The ‘Reaper’s’ tone was casual, but it was easy to tell what state he was in just by looking at the huge two-handed scythe trembling slightly in his hands.
‘You’re so angry. If I make a mistake, I could hit Hwang Tae-wook right away.’
That was not possible, so I had to prepare my mind in advance.
Tak-
The Shinigami landed lightly into a hollow crater.
I suddenly had a craving for the Sky Craft floating in the air, but I tried to ignore it.
‘Concentrate. Concentrate.’
– Phew… Okay. Talk about it. Hwang Tae-wook.
The conversation began as the envoy slowly approached Hwang Tae-wook.
– I was ambushed.
– ······ Hey, Hwang Tae-wook, you fucking b*tch. Are you going to tell me in detail if I ask you about the six and a half principles?
– Now, wait a minute. Just listen first. They weren’t the ones who shot at our factory yesterday.
-What? So, is there anyone else besides those who carried out the diversionary operation?
– Yes, I got it right. Anyway, while dealing with them, we were able to find a group that we could roughly guess.
-How are you? Isn’t this just nonsense you made up because you don’t want to die on me?
-No. Was it really an organization you never thought of? Anyway, we weren’t enough to stop them. So how did you end up here just by removing your body? To give you information.
– Oh, shit, what is the name of the group? What do they want? Is it also a manufacturing company? Surely it wasn’t blown up?
-Is that possible? Anyway, I guess their identity is probably…
-······?
– It’s shit.
– What?
‘Explode!’
Kwagwagwakwakwakwakwakwakwakwakwakwakwakwakwakwakwakwakwakwakwakwakwakwakwakwakwakwakwakwakwakwakwakwakwakwakwa… !!!
The entire island was greatly shaken by an explosion that felt as if thunder and lightning had struck overhead.
Hwang Tae-wook and Mari escaped from the sanctuary at the same time as the explosion and quickly ran toward where I was. Instead, I ran forward following where they ran.
Hwang Tae-wook and Mari decided that they needed more time because their weakened bodies had not fully recovered from the attack.
Since we’ve given up a few more bottles of Irmana’s water, it would be a good idea to let them recover a little more before joining us.
Of course, the same was true for the five newly joined demons.
In fact, even if they join now, they won’t be of any help against S-class hunters.
Until I give you a signal, staying still is helpful.
“Cluck-cluck-! Kahaaak, tut! aaa!! You fucking b*stards!! How dare you hit me in the back?!!”
The Shinigami who was hit squarely by a large-scale bomb attack appeared to have suffered considerable damage.
The flow of magical power was also greatly distorted, and it did not seem to be able to stabilize easily.
It really was a proper surprise attack, but somehow the bomb’s power seemed to be more powerful than usual. Is there perhaps a hidden effect of the sanctuary?
‘They said it was plastered with artifacts and advanced equipment, but the bomb worked harder than expected? Since it’s an assassination class, is its defense a bit low? I feel like I’ve lost some stamina… I might be able to do it more than I thought.’
“aaah!!”
The ‘Reaper’, who had been coughing continuously, shook off his clothes a few times and roared in anger.
After being attacked unexpectedly, his face turned bright red with anger and shame. However, the sight of me, who was in hiding, being on alert as he sensed my approaching presence made me realize that he was indeed an S-class hunter.
‘This time, [Inconsistent Fury] Doesn’t activate. Do you think it will be around the first Escaron before you can correct it?’
“Whew—I won’t kill you gracefully.”
A reaper who sharpens his blade and prepares for a counterattack.
Woooung───
A presence that changes the air flow in the area.
‘Life is no joke. Be scared… But I heard it has a characteristic related to the sense of smell, so it seems to be true.’
Although I don’t seem to be able to pinpoint exactly where I am, the sight of me turning my body in a general direction and positioning myself so that I can swing my scythe at any time naturally created a sense of tension.
‘Even though you burned your body once, does the smell still remain?’
Even though I said I was prepared, I think it was a little lacking.
Buuung─ Hooong─
The grim reaper swings his sickle and flicks his tongue as if he were dancing.
It was a strange movement, somewhat like a playful dance move, but suddenly I felt a chill running down my spine from the vitality flowing out.
‘Huh… I’m going crazy. If I even get close to that thing, it looks like my armor and everything will just break in two.’
Just by looking at the scythe he was swinging, I could clearly picture myself being split in two.
A monster that exudes such absolute presence.
“Kick-it’s the first time in a long time that the tension has risen. A person with this level of hiding ability. I’m sure Hwang Tae-wook recruited him, but he was already being worked on by other guys so he was called in to play the role of bait?”
‘Oh… Your brain is good too. I almost got it right.’
[Flame Cannon]
‘Let’s give a gift as compensation.’
The flame cannon fired while moving quickly behind the guy was aimed precisely at the back of the guy’s head.
But.
Taaang──!!
‘Tch…’
“Huh? It’s pretty heavy?”
The guy effortlessly deflected the flame cannon with his scythe.
However, it was noticeable that his feet were dragged back quite a bit while he was blocking the attack.
“But isn’t it surprising that you’re a wizard? How dare a wizard fight against me? Ha… My reputation has been ruined. I need to get back on the field and let people know who I am.”
The guy shook his head, and an afterimage appeared of several arms.
‘Huh?! Danger-!’
An image of a grim reaper holding a scythe flashed through my mind.
For a moment, I felt so much ‘fear’ that my body froze, but I was somehow able to jump into the sky and avoid its attack.
────
At the same time, two waves of metal passed under my legs, extending endlessly, passing right through the island and flying beyond the horizon.
‘──?!’
Since I couldn’t identify myself, I think I just roughly followed the direction, but it was truly an insanely destructive force.
‘Huh… Did it really turn? Did you blow away energy with the scythe? That b*stard was Joong-gil’s side, right?’
I thought he was just a crazy person who was drunk on the Shinigami concept, but he was an expert who mastered the weapon called a scythe.
“Huh? There’s no reaction. You avoided this? Your reaction speed is pretty good for a wizard.”
The guy swung his huge scythe around in the air, then suddenly closed his eyes and started muttering something.
[Flame Cannon]
Of course, there’s no reason for me to leave it alone.
“Ah!”
Powong──!
The reaper hits the fire cannon again with a short exclamation.
Seeing as he blocked the attack and was pushed back about 30cm, it was clear that he had a light body.
‘Still, it would be annoying if they stuck up and attacked. Is it faster than Escaron?’
Avoiding attacks is a problem, but hitting a target seems more difficult.
“Hey, where did you learn the dog manners of attacking when trying to use a skill?”
‘Is there any reason to protect something like that from a b*stard like you?’
In the first place, where can there be such a thing as manners in a life-or-death situation? If the head flies off, it’s all over.
“But what? “They already called me?”
‘?!’
Suddenly, something humanoid was floating above the Shinigami’s head.
‘The woman whose head was blown off… Is that the skill to bring back the soul that Hwang Tae-wook talked about?’
It was clearly someone who had been killed by a reaper, but looking at the outfit, it looked like it belonged to a wizard.
[Quiet Wavelength]
‘Of course!’
The waves emanating from the headless wizard’s body instantly covered the entire area.
With my instinctive intuition, I stopped moving as if I had turned into a stone statue and observed the movements of the Shinigami.
‘This is definitely a magic that detects vibrations. If you move even a little, a mark will be placed immediately.’
I am a skeleton.
I was more confident than anyone else about staying still and not moving.
“······ Ah! Really! Are you going to keep doing this until it’s not fun? You started out hot, but then why are you hiding like a rat?”
He tried to provoke me somehow and make me reveal myself, but there was no real harm done.
“Fuck, if I had known this would happen, I should have caught Marie somehow… Wait? Can’t I just catch her now?”
When the Shinigami had no effect despite summoning the soul, he eventually tried to find Mari.
Chijijijik──
“Huh? What is this again? When will the barrier be…?”
However, the Shinigami was blocked by the border sanctuary and had no choice but to stop.
A reaper with an expression of embarrassment that I had never seen before in an unexpected situation.
“······ This is really surprising. Hey, can you tell me who he really is? I’m really curious. From stealth, to fire magic, and now to barrier magic… As far as I know, This guy has such diverse abilities. There is only one person!”
I somehow felt like I knew who the Shinigami was talking about.
‘I guess it’s only early. There was a rumor going around that he could use hundreds of skills.’
The Shinigami tried several times to respond to the escape prevention ability, but they all ended in vain.
But it was only a matter of time before it was resolved.
The ‘escape prevention’ effect of the border sanctuary is still weak.
“Hmph! Such a crude barrier!”
It easily broke the boundaries of the sanctuary.
But I still had several moves left.
There is a saying that if you want to attack someone, aim for the moment when the enemy is distracted by something else.
– When switching to combat mode, inflict powerful fire damage to the first enemy that enters your field of vision.
I activated my ability while watching his face
Kwaaang—!!
“Kwaaa!! Oh, it’s hot! aaa!!”
A huge explosion occurred on the guy’s face, and red flames like blood rose up.
