I’m Here to End This Fight - Chapter 393



Only Noblemtl

Episode 393. The Belgrade War (8)

A red flare suddenly burst from the sky.

Everyone there found this strange.

“Red? Did we have a signal flare like that?”

“You idiot! Look in the direction! This isn’t our campsite!”

“ah!”

Al and others were muttering about the nature of the red flare that had exploded outside the camp.

On the other hand, the lumberjacks’ expressions were frozen stiff.

‘Red, requesting cooperation?!’

‘The siege has already been breached?!’

The loggers exchanged brief glances as they saw the red flare.

That wasn’t all.

Teresia also read the hardened gaze of the lumberjacks, and they simultaneously came to the same conclusion.

‘There’s a problem!’

‘Something’s wrong!’

And this was nothing short of an opportunity for Teresia.

Pot!

Teresia moved like lightning.

Dozens of spear shadows shot out from her as she closed the distance in an instant.

Shashashasha-!

A series of stabbing attacks with enough power to instantly turn a person into a beehive.

At this, the expression on the targeted lumberjack’s face became anxious.

But that was only for a moment.

“Hot!”

The lumberjack swung the two hatchets he held in his hands and jumped into the window Teresia had created.

At this, Teresia bit her lip.

‘As expected, you have a lot of experience.’

A less experienced person would have been taken aback by this surprise attack and tried to avoid the attack by keeping some distance.

But the lumberjack took a chance and jumped into the attack to create a gap to his advantage.

Tadadadang-!

Phew!

A lumberjack who successfully moved forward by blocking attacks on vital parts and hitting the rest with his body.

But Teresia’s attack had already left his body in tatters.

A lumberjack who barely managed to survive, but was rendered incapacitated for combat.

Still, he was smiling.

“Huh huh!”

dump-.

A man falls down with a bright smile as if his role is over.

Meanwhile, the lumberjack leader appeared within arm’s reach of Teresia and swung his axe.

While the fallen lumberjack was blocking Teresia’s attacks with his body, buying some time, the foreman closed the distance between him and Teresia.

A member who is willing to sacrifice himself to create an opening.

The captain doesn’t even blink an eye at the sacrifice of his crew members.

The seamless cooperation between the loggers made me realize that they had not been working together for a day or two.

But I couldn’t just sit there and admire it.

A pair of axes, engulfed in the power of evil, are close enough to crush your chest.

Teresia also knew that she could not completely avoid this.

‘Huh!’

She quickly turned around on the spot and drew up mana to protect her body.

The moment when he gritted his teeth and blocked the lumberjack’s double axe with his spear.

Boom-!

Theresia was thrown out with a tremendous explosion.

She screamed, vomiting up the blood that had welled up in her throat.

“Run in the direction where the flare went off!”

The crowd that had been watching the shout immediately started running.

And Teresia also turned in the air and ran after them.

The lumberjack leader who saw this gave an order.

“Chase him.”

Knock-!

The crew members ran in silence towards the direction where Teresia and her group had disappeared.

The leader, who was watching the scene from behind, frowned.

‘That’s pretty good.’

Quick decision-making ability to sneak in when there’s an opening.

A cool-headed judgment that blocks attacks while protecting the organs with mana at a moment when it is thought to be unavoidable.

There is even a choice to use the power of the attack to fly to the retreat route.

It was an outstanding skill and judgment of the situation that was not typical of children these days.

but.

‘The final decision is regrettable.’

Not only did he run away with others instead of alone, but he chose the direction of the flare when he chose his retreat route.

No matter how you look at it, it was her misjudgment.

The leader opened his mouth to one side.

“I’ll come pick you up after I’m done.”

“Go, go. I won’t die from just this little injury.”

Jo-won, who had fallen after being hit by Teresia’s fierce attack, smiled weakly.

Leaving his crew behind, the leader ran into the forest.

***

“Run without looking back!”

Teresia shouted at those running ahead.

But on the contrary, she was always on guard behind her back.

‘Too slow.’

The speed of those running ahead was no different from that of a turtle from Teresia’s perspective.

On the other hand, the lumberjacks chasing after them could not be called tigers, but they were wolves.

If things continue like this, it won’t be long before we’re caught up with them.

Teresia had expected this would happen from the beginning, so she planned to stay behind and hold back the lumberjacks.

But she changed her mind after seeing the red flare that exploded just a moment ago.

‘A variable has been created.’

By inference, the red signal flare would mean that there was a problem with their encirclement.

It may have been a signal requesting cooperation.

If I think about it that way, I don’t know if heading towards where the flare went off would actually be more dangerous.

Enemy reinforcements will also gather where the red signal flare went off.

However, the reason Teresia chose the place where the red signal flare went off was because of the ‘variable’.

A variable that caused problems in their encirclement.

Teresia decided to place her hopes on that variable.

[Opportunity lies in crisis!]

A phrase often said before someone causes a major accident.

‘If there is a hole in the net due to some variable… … .’

Teresia decided to believe that.

‘You might be able to get out through there!’

Will this choice of his turn turn out to be a bad move?

Or maybe it will be a good move to overcome the crisis.

Everything will be decided a little later.

‘Of course, I have to get there alive before then!’

Whirik-!

Teresia’s spear swung backward.

bang-!

Then a small dagger about a span long bounced out.

The attack was easily warded off, but Teresia’s speed was slightly slowed down as a result.

And that wasn’t the only dagger that flew in.

Bang! Bang!

With each dagger strike, Teresia was forced to slow down, and the distance between her and the lumberjacks gradually narrowed.

bang-!

Teresia gritted her teeth as she struck the dagger again.

‘How many of them do you carry around?’

I think I’ve already slashed away about a dozen daggers, but they’re still flying.

Teresia checked the front.

‘What’s the distance?’

Those who had set out before him had not yet run far.

For Teresia, who was following along, the speed was so slow that it was frustrating.

The only consolation is that we’re getting closer to where the signal flare went off.

‘Just a little more!’

Just a little further.

If I had just passed the edge of the forest in front of me, I would have reached the point where the flare had gone off.

At this moment, a slight sense of relief settled in Theresia’s heart.

Shhh-!

Her expression hardened as she felt the murderous attack approaching from behind.

‘also!’

Teresia, who thought she was going to throw the dagger again without getting tired of it.

But she realized as she swung her dagger that something was different this time.

bang-!

To be exact, what she struck with was not a dagger but an axe.

The hatchet that flew like a boomerang was filled with tremendous power.

It was so strong that Teresia’s body staggered for a moment after striking it.

Her expression hardened as she quickly caught her staggering body.

‘That’s it!’

With this level of power, he must be a foreman-level lumberjack.

And Teresia’s prediction came true.

“Hot!”

A human shadow appeared above the trees, with a short sigh.

He quickly snatched the thrown hatchet and used the force of its fall to swing the axe down at Teresia’s head.

Teresia’s spear against this.

The Winchester family’s vision of magic.

Brittle star.

The trajectory of the blade, like a comet, penetrated the gap like a ray of light, aiming for the captain’s heart.

The enemy is still in the air.

A gap large enough to pierce a window.

So there was a moment when Theresia was sure that her spear would reach.

Hmph-!

The lumberjack leader spun around in the air at incredible speed.

Green Hood Vision Magic.

Spinning top.

The two axes, with such tremendous rotational force that it seemed as if a person could really spin around, struck Teresia’s spear.

Kagagagang-!

At the point where the rotating afterimage and the brittle trajectory met, a sharp cracking sound was heard and sparks flew.

Teresia’s spear vibrated so violently that it was difficult to hold on to it.

‘Ugh!’

A seasonal brittleness optimized for ‘flowing’ to ignore the opponent’s defense.

Even that kind of brittle, rotating and changing slap was not easily shed.

However, Teresia’s brittleness did not give up and she continued to move forward to break through her opponent’s defenses.

But right then.

Shhh-!

Two silhouettes passed by Teresia, going around her at a distance.

‘this!’

They were none other than the two lumberjacks who had been chasing him.

The two crew members chose not to help the leader but to chase after Teresia’s group who were running away.

At their judgment, Teresia hastily withdrew her temper.

Then a scream burst out from the spinning afterimage.

“Where are you looking!”

Green Hood Vision Magic.

Splitting ironwood.

Finally, the rotation ended and a cross-shaped energy appeared.

An extremely powerful downward strike that can instantly turn even the strongest iron log into four pieces of firewood.

Teresia could not simply ignore this, so she raised her power.

The Winchester family’s vision of magic.

Teresian style – April of the Brittle Month.

A white and yellow trajectory was fixed in the center of a cross shape.

Gggggggggggggg-!

The power to pierce and the power to split.

Two forces entered into a duel in the air.

But as time passed, Teresia’s face grew pale, and she quickly realized how the struggle was going.

‘It’s getting pushed.’

The inner garment I wore a little while ago.

The level of completion was lacking because it was hastily put together.

Because of this, Theresia’s spear was being pushed back.

So she had no choice but to make a decision.

Teresia released the strength she had been holding back.

Boom-!

Her body was thrown backwards like a shell with a tremendous bang.

After that, the lumberjack leader who had landed on the ground frowned and flew after Teresia.

‘You’re doing the same thing again!’

As he said, Teresia used the force of the collision again to throw herself out.

Of course, because of that choice, her physical condition got worse.

Phew-!

Teresia vomited a mouthful of blood.

As the shock from earlier was great, the internal injuries also became serious, and the right arm holding the spear was also dislocated.

‘Hey, first of all, get your posture… … !’

I could feel the ominous momentum of the lumberjacks chasing me from the front at a frightening speed.

So I had to quickly correct my posture and move the spear to my left arm… … .

Cool!

The internal injuries were more severe than expected and took away control of my body in an instant.

Teresia flew over the forest boundary.

She flew a little further after that, then rolled around on the ground.

Zugeuk- Zugg.

Teresia rolled and rolled for over 10 times before finally stopping.

Even so, her determination to still hold the spear was admirable, but her appearance, covered in blood and dust, was truly pitiful.

“Huh!”

Teresia gritted her teeth and forced strength into her body.

The lumberjack leader will show up soon.

I had to get up right away and prepare to face it.

The moment I touched the ground next to me.

Slosh-!

What Theresia felt in her hands was not the ground, but a squishy lump of flesh.

Surprised by this, Teresia’s gaze turned to the side.

At the same time, she saw that what she had touched was someone’s body.

‘no way?!’

Are all those who went ahead dead?

Is it too late?

The thought crossed her mind, but she quickly realized something was off.

‘What is this…?’

A corpse that was touched by one’s own hands.

He is none other than.

‘… A lumberjack?’

It was the very same lumberjack who had passed by him.

Teresia was slightly taken aback by that surprising fact.

Ssang-!

He appeared with a terrible sound.

Green Hood Vision Magic.

Splitting ironwood.

A cross-shaped aura falls down, aiming for Teresia’s head, as it leaps out of the forest.

Theresia’s eyes lit up with shock when she saw this.

“… … ?!”

But that only lasted for a moment.

Death slowly approaches in slow time.

The shock disappeared from Teresia who stood before him and an air of resignation took over.

‘How stupid… … .’

He was so shocked by the death of the lumberjack who had gone first that he forgot what his situation was.

I made such a stupid mistake that I have nothing to say even if I die.

The moment she accepted and acknowledged her own death, a flash of light flashed before Teresia’s eyes.

Memories of my childhood as a child who was the scapegoat of my family and of throwing a spear in a desperate attempt to escape my punishment.

My life of 21 years, not a very long one, was a life of black and white.

But she also had some particularly bright and colorful memories.

From the second year of cradle school to the middle of the third year.

A short period of less than two years.

But there were moments in her life that were more brilliant and enjoyable than ever before.

And at every moment, there is someone who is so… … .

‘I miss you.’

…I wanted to meet you.

The moment Teresia thought so.

Break-!

Thunder was heard from somewhere.

Along with him, blue lightning fell from the sky.

Kwarung-!

A sudden lightning strike swallowed up the lumberjack leader who was rushing towards Teresia.

Crunch-!

Not only did he easily cut through the cross-shaped energy, he also cut off the lumberjack’s head.

Bam-.

A corpse that has fallen over and lost its head.

Thanks to the unexpected turn of events, Teresia’s vision returned to normal as she emerged from the illusion.

At the same time she could see.

“What, why are you here?”

He stands surrounded by blue light.

“Tessya, long time no see.”

Yuri greets you with a bright smile.
