Episode 305

Clexi’s inspiration furrowed his brow.

“What does this mean?”

“Does it sound like someone is calling for help?”

“So why do you hear that from underground? Surely my store’s sewage pipe isn’t connected to the crocodile’s den?”

“I think so?”

“Shit!”

Clexi’s face distorted at Zeon’s indifferent answer.

I knew that crocodiles lived in the slums. I knew that their dens were as intricately intertwined as ant holes. But I never thought that there would be one right under my store.

“You rotten little bastards! How dare you dig a hole under my shop without my permission.”

“That’s not important right now.”

“I know! I was just saying.”

“Where is the nearest sewer entrance?”

“Go one block further and you’ll come to an intersection. Turn right there and it’s hidden behind a wall.”

“All right.”

Zeon and Brielle ran to the place that Clexi had told them about.

They arrived at the sewer entrance in no time.

There was a huge iron bar blocking the way, but it shattered helplessly at Zeon’s gesture.

“Let’s go in.”

“huh!”

Brielle answered without a moment’s hesitation.

They went into the sewer together.

“Ugh!”

Brielle, who had entered the sewer with great momentum, covered her nose.

The stench is already suffocating.

In the past, it was okay to make drugs in an environment worse than this, but perhaps because I was accustomed to a comfortable life, my head was already spinning. However, Brielle had a magic called alchemy.

I drank the potion I had prepared for such a situation, and my sense of smell was numbed, so I was no longer bothered.

“It’s a potion that numbs the sense of smell. Should I also give you one Xeon?”

“It’s okay! When did you make that?”

“I just prepared in case I ever have to go into the crocodile den again.”

“good job!”

“Whew! I hoped I wouldn’t have to go in there again, but this is what happened in the end. I guess there really is such a thing as an unavoidable fate.”

“That could be the case.”

Zeon nodded.

Originally, he didn’t believe in fate either.

However, after experiencing many hardships, I was able to feel that there is an unknown flow in the world.

Whether I wanted it or not, what was going to happen was going to happen.

That’s how the world puts me where I should be.

Maybe it was fate.

The sewer sloped steeply and headed deep underground.

After walking about ten meters, we came to a fork in the road.

Zeon looked around the fork in the road for a moment and said.

“Let’s go to the right. I heard a noise from that direction earlier.”

“huh!”

The two people chose the right path.

Scratch! Scratch!

They were ankle deep in dirty sewage, but neither of them cared.

Now was the time to concentrate on the sound I had just heard from the sewer pipe.

‘Where are you?’

Zeon sharpened his senses.

bang!

At that moment, I felt a strong vibration.

It was filled with such a strong force that the water that reached up to the ankles rippled.

“It’s on the left.”

“huh!”

At the fork in the road that appeared again, I chose the left.

After running a few dozen meters like that, I could faintly hear someone’s desperate voice again.

“Please save me.”

It was the voice I heard from the sewer pipe earlier.

Zeon and Briel ran at full speed in the direction from which the voice came.

Then the voice was heard again.

“Got you, you little rat!”

“Let go of it! Damn it!”

“This won’t work. I’ll just have to cut him off here.”

It seemed like a pretty urgent situation.

Zeon increased his speed and ran towards where the voice was heard.

Just as he turned the corner, he saw men shoving a shamshir around a young boy’s neck.

“what?”

“What kind of guy are you?”

They were surprised by the sudden appearance of Zeon and shouted.

There were three men in all.

They all wore turbans on their heads and white robes called deshadas.

The moment he saw them, Zeon knew. They were the Helbrin mercenaries he had been chasing.

They shouted at Zeon.

“He asked who I was.”

“If you don’t answer, I’ll cut off this little kid’s head.”

They took the boy hostage and threatened Zeon.

But their threats had no effect on Zeon.

Dozens of fire missiles rose around Zeon’s body.

The Awakened members of the Helbrin Mercenary Corps gritted their teeth at the sight.

“Fuck!”

“Death candy!”

“Hey!”

They rushed straight to Zeon without delay.

The opponent showed hostility, so I couldn’t just sit back and take it.

Their response was surprisingly quick.

To the extent that even the most awakened people can’t even react.

But their opponent was Zeon.

Shushu shu shu!

The moment they moved, Zeon fired a fire missile,

The Awakened Helbrin Mercenaries swung their swords madly and struck down the fire missiles.

Kwakwakwang!

The bodies of the Awakened Helbrin Mercenaries shook repeatedly with the loud noise.

“Ugh!”

“Shit!”

Their faces were distorted horribly.

All three were awakened martial artists.

They were all C-ranked and skilled enough to put mana into their weapons.

At this level, I would have been treated well even in Neo Seoul.

Because of that, they had great pride in themselves.

However, their pride was shattered like a glass bowl by the fire missile baptism unleashed by Zeon.

Fire Missile was the most basic skill that any magician who could use fire magic could use.

Of course, the power wasn’t that great either.

However, the power of the fire missiles deployed by Zeon was far beyond their imagination.

Each fire missile has great power, and they keep firing without giving you a moment to breathe.

If you block one, two will fly in, and if you block two, four will shoot out.

They had never experienced such an endless barrage of fire missiles.

Zzz!

Pakang!

Shamshir, which was the first to block the fire missiles, broke apart, unable to withstand the accumulated impact.

The fire missiles that destroyed the weapons struck their bodies.

Pubbubububu!

“Ugh!”

“Hot, hot!”

“Save me!”

The Awakened ones, their entire bodies on fire, ran wild.

Two of them quickly rolled on the floor and put out the fire that had caught on their bodies, but the other one was not so lucky.

It was because the turban on his head caught fire.

The fire on his head instantly burned his eyeballs and windpipe.

Because of that, he was unable to put out the fire like his other colleagues, and lost his life while struggling.

It was an incredibly shabby death for a C-class martial arts awakener.

The Awakened one who barely managed to save his life shouted.

“You, what the hell? What the hell! Why are you attacking us?”

“We didn’t harm you.”

They looked like demons, shouting with their necks bloodshot.

Moreover, he suffered horrible burns all over his body, so horrible that I was afraid to even see him in my dreams.

It was a sight full of venom that would make a normal person terrified, but unfortunately, Zeon and Brielle were not normal people.

Shoooo!

Zeon’s body shot out like an arrow and reached the man on the right.

“This fucking… … .”

Kwajik!

Zeon’s fist struck his stomach.

“이 개새끼야! 사람이 말하는데 공격해?”

The man nearby swung his fist in anger, but his blow did not touch Zeon’s body.

Zeon knocked his fist away with his left hand and hit his jaw with his right fist.

bang!

The man’s head fell back with a loud thud.

The part of his jaw that had been hit by the fist was intact, but the upper part of his skull was shattered.

Brains and blood splattered everywhere, but Zeon didn’t blink and just looked at the man he had knocked down first.

“W, this can’t be happening! Nayar is so vain… … .”

The name of the man whose head was blown off by Zeon’s attack was Nayar. Nayar was the strongest of the three.

The awakened man, who saw Nayar lose his life in vain, trembled and collapsed in place.

“Eww! What are you? What are you talking about?”

“It doesn’t matter who I am. It matters who you are and what you’ve done.”

“Stop talking nonsense!”

The man was evil.

He was a survivor of the harsh desert.

He stands with his head upright like a desert cobra, spewing out his hostility.

That was the pride of those who lived in the desert.

But this time, I met the wrong person.

In Zeon’s eyes, the poison he held seemed like child’s play.

Real poison isn’t like that.

Swearing like that, glaring, and acting strong.

These are all actions that only weak people do.

The truly poisonous ones hide themselves.

Hide yourself thoroughly, and when you have a chance, cut off your opponent’s life with one stroke.

Such behavior is tantamount to revealing one’s weakness.

This is something that Xeon would never have done.

The price was harsh.

Phew!

Zeon’s leg slammed into his abdomen.

The impact felt like a large skewer had pierced his abdomen.

“Ugh!”

The man fell to the ground, vomiting blood.

Zeon stepped on the fallen man’s neck.

Boom boom!

The sound of bones cracking came from the man’s throat.

I was out of breath and my mind was blank.

My eyes rolled back and saliva flowed from my mouth.

It was so painful that I couldn’t even scream.

When the pain reached its peak, the man could not bear it and begged.

“Ugh, ugh! Sa, save me… … .”

“What did you say?”

“S, save me… … . Well, I’ll tell you anything… … .”

Despite his pleas, Zeon did not release his trampled neck.

Boom!

The man’s neck became increasingly deformed.

Now the man could not speak and could only croak.

Just before his breath was cut off, Zeon loosened his foot.

As the immense pressure was relieved, the man gasped for breath as his breathing became easier.

“Khuuuuk!”

The man opened his mouth wide to take in some fresh air.

That was when.

“Ugh!”

Again, Zeon stepped on his neck.

Boom!

A cracking sound came from the man’s throat.

“You might as well kill me… … .”

“I will kill you.”

“You bastard… … .”

“You should not beg me to spare your life, but to kill you painlessly.”

“Ugh!”

Only then did the man realize.

The fact that no matter what he does, he cannot survive here.

Zeon was informing the man.

This is what true poison is.

The man was truly consumed by venom.
