Playing the Perfect Fox-Eyed Villain Chapter 97

Episode 97. The Wicked Child (3)

It was a situation where the saying that one was at a crossroads between life and death really felt real.

I have never experienced such pain and suffering in my life.

When did I, an ordinary citizen who played games, get hurt to the point of death like this?

Although it was reduced thanks to the trait, the excruciating pain that penetrated from head to toe was enough to make me lose consciousness, even if only for a moment.

There was not a single healthy part of my body, and my instinct for survival was fading away like a dying candle.

‘Even my fingertips… … are difficult to move.’

There are three places where the window is stuck.

abdomen.

Right chest.

Thigh.

These are just fatal wounds that make it impossible to continue fighting. It wouldn't be strange for a normal person, or anyone, to die instantly from bleeding and shock.

But then I realized again.

'Yurien's body is incredibly durable.'

The body he possessed was beyond common sense.

I felt a sense of floating on the surface of the water, and observed the state of my body solely through my senses.

Although he was said to be strong, in reality, even if he was 'Yurien', he deserved to die from this level of injury.

The reason I can breathe like this is purely because 'Sombra' protects my organs and stops the bleeding as much as possible.

'I bet he doesn't want to die either.'

The moment I absorbed the soul stone, 'Sombra' became one with me. The reason I'm working so hard on treatment is because I'm struggling to survive.

'That applies to me too.'

I didn't want to die in a place like this.

I absolutely cannot stand to die as retribution for something that had nothing to do with me, something I did not do.

'I have to get up.'

As soon as I made up my mind, my body, which couldn't even move its fingertips, gradually began to listen to me.

at the same time.

“Ugh.”

As if my sleeping nerves had opened their eyes, the pain of my damaged body had become mine.

The discomfort reached the sky.

I had no energy and couldn't move easily, but the pain was distinct.

“This much……, I can bear it.”

Yet, this damn mouth hypnotized itself by putting on airs.

The pathological atmosphere makes even I stick my tongue out.

'Okay. Whatever you do, hang in there.'

If I die, who will be there to water the orchids waiting for me at home?

The two newly adopted children also caught my eye.

As I thought about it that way, my will to live became stronger.

“Euuuuuuuuuuuu……!”

After pulling myself together, I started pulling out the spears embedded in my body one by one.

BAM──!

Next to me, I heard someone flying in and hitting the wall.

“Coolook, coolook!”

I didn't pay any attention to it and just focused on pulling out the window.

It was obvious that if I were to pull out these things that had penetrated my body, there would be excessive bleeding.

'If you want to live, stop it yourself.'

I spoke to Sombra, even though I wasn't sure if we could communicate.

If he has a mind of his own, he will do it.

one.

“Ugh…….”

two.

“Ugh, ugh.”

three.

“……Ugh.”

I barely managed to pull out all three spears with my weak hands.

As expected, the large hole that would have caused bleeding was blocked by Sombra.

My bloodshot eyes hurt as if boiling water had been poured on them, but my gaze instinctively looked around.

'The Moon Sword is…?'

It is a fighting spirit so great that words cannot be spoken.

Even in this situation, you sit there looking for a sword.

But this time, I did not deny the fighting spirit of 'Yurien' that was beyond the norm.

The fight isn't over yet.

Idel, who became a demon, is still alive, and I am still at the crossroads of life and death.

'Where are you?'

I don't see any swords that were made with expensive money.

I was already feeling like I was going to die from the pain, but when I couldn't even see the sword, I started getting annoyed for no reason.

Cool.

Coughing, I managed to get up on my feet.

Is the sword broken? No, that's not it.

There must be a mountain of demon corpses somewhere there.

'Can you find it?'

Crackle crackle.

I can assure you of this. You will not find it in this situation.

I have to search through each corpse one by one, but Idel won't wait for that, and I don't have the strength to do it.

Crunch.

At that moment, a short sword wrapped in cloth fell from his bosom.

The sword used by the blacksmith Haydn Reich.

It is a sword that is so old that it has lost all of its former glory, and more than half of its blade has disappeared.

'It's just like the current Black Sword.'

Still, I took hold of the sword's hilt.

A rough, yet strange feeling.

Even in the midst of the storm of pain, it was clearly felt.

Originally, it was not a sword, but a sword that the protagonist should have used.

===

⇒ The trait “Amnesia” has been transformed into “New Swordsmanship”.

===

As the unfamiliar text came to mind, I felt the pain subside, even if only slightly.

At the same time, the idea of how to handle the sword I was holding now began to come to me a little more clearly.

– “Of the Hyrans family.”

Through the "Aura Transformation", I reinforced my short sword into the "Moonlight Sword", and a sharp murderous aura was directed towards me.

Triangle Demon, Edel.

The monster's attention shifted to me.

“Sir Yurian!”

Before I knew it, Linne was here.

– “Greatness must be known.”

"be careful!"

With her scream, a spear shot straight through the wind and towards me.

Kaang──!

I managed to deflect it with my sword, but the force was so great that my upper body staggered.

Moreover, the two legs that were forced to stand were shaking so much that it wouldn't have been strange if they fell over at any moment.

– “Krrrrr……!”

But I can't just collapse here.

This is 'Yurien', who is known as the 'Genius of Demon Hunting'.

Gather all your strength into your legs.

Feeling my flabby muscles tighten, I kicked the ground and closed the distance between me and Idel.

Tukan!

Another window flies in, as if to deny me access.

I felt like I had gained new traits and my eyesight had improved.

For example, even if the speed is invisible to the eye, the trajectory is visible.

However, although his 'eyes' had improved, his already damaged body remained the same.

Moreover, the floor, covered in demon mucus and blood, was extremely unstable.

Crunch!

'If you don't avoid it, you die.'

An ominous feeling creeps into my mind.

“Ugh!”

Fortunately, that did not become reality.

Linne, who was following me, swung her sword and barely managed to deflect the 'spear'.

Although he tried to block it directly, the power contained in that 'spear' was not insignificant. Because of that, Linne was unable to keep her balance and fell to the ground.

'Enough.'

Looking at that sight, I took a step closer to Ethel.

As I approached, Idel began to engage in close combat rather than shooting out 'spears'.

The guy's super-hardened arm thrust in in a straight line.

Kwajijik──!

I barely managed to block the blow with my sword raised next to my face, but red sparks flashed.

Every time Edel's arm touched the sword, the aura armed with the 'Moonlight Sword' was gradually cut down.

“Ugh, ugh……!”

As if glued to the ground, my sticky lower body wouldn't listen to me, but I forcefully raised my arm and swung the 'Moonlight Sword' at the guy's body.

Kwajijik──!

This time, sparks fly again.

What is being cut down is not Edel's body, but only the aura surrounding the Sword Saint's sword.

'Then, even more sharply.'

Although it was just a crude aura applied to a fragmented sword, the aura was continuously refined.

Increased strength and sharper cutting power.

Even though he knew it wouldn't work on the guy covered in super hardening, he kept swinging his sword.

A spark flew into the air and touched my cheek, burning me, but it didn't stop.

This is the only way I can do it now.

– “Glory to the House of Hyrans.”

Naturally, Idel did not just sit back and take it.

Every time I swung my sword, a counterattack came, and to avoid it, I rolled on the floor covered in the demon's sloppy blood and raw flesh.

But an instinctive rejection rose from the depths of my heart.

Get out of here. Survival comes first right now.

– “Highlands.”

As I became more and more familiar with the Sword of the Black Sword, my 'Moonlight Sword' became sharper.

– “To the family.”

Inversely, the sword became shorter.

– “Glory……. Kreuk!”

Eventually, by the time I was able to land a powerful blow that would make the guy scream, the sword blade that had been slashing away and the aura that had been forming were no longer worthy of the word 'sword'.

“Ah, no…….”

– “Kick, kick.”

Linne's desperate voice and Idel's mocking laugh.

Ignoring them, I kicked the sticky floor.

Tsk tsk──!

The 'Moon Jang Sword' that he had been looking for was there.

Found it.

"no way……."

Okay──!

Ignoring Linne's muttering voice, I breathed aura into the Moon Sword that I had become accustomed to.

Accept my aura without any resistance.

This is my sword.

With a satisfied smile, he glances at the sword in his left hand.

'The sword used by Geomseong… … .'

I let it go.

It is a sword that has the greatest meaning to me, but there is no one in this world who can use it now.

Only the nobility that has been corrupted remains.

'Goodbye.'

He smiled self-deprecatingly and held the Moon Sword with both hands.

– “Kuaaaah!”

Idel's eyes opened wide as she felt a stronger aura than before.

With a ferocious roar, the guy raises both his hands and swings his arms viciously, starting with the absurd ability called 'Super Hardening'.

fault.

I rode on that hand that had grown huge through demonization and rushed towards the guy's forehead.

'You can only squeeze one attack from now on.'

Considering the state of my body, this may be the last blow.

===

Uses the trait, "Sombra".

===

So, I decided to pull out all the strength I had and use every means at my disposal.

===

Trait: Moonlight Blade and Sombra repel each other.

===

This trait is a firepower that cannot be handled even when in good physical condition.

'ah.'

But after struggling between life and death, is it because my mind is clear?

I just realized why I wasn't controlling this ability properly.

'There was no name.'

In this worldview, the word ‘name’ has a very important meaning.

The stronger the magic, the more unique it is, and it has its own unique name, individual characteristics, and aura.

Even if a 'demon' had a name, its strength would be different.

– “Ha, to the Hyrans family!”

It's a crucial moment, but Idel interrupts my thoughts by mimicking human speech.

That fu*king guy.

Maybe that guy instinctively knows that this is the last time.

To finish off that guy, I looked at the 'Moonlight Blade' imbued with 'Sombra'.

A sword dyed black as if obscured by the softly shining moonlight and shadows.

'Lunar eclipse.'

Yes, your name is 'Lunar Eclipse'.

===

Created a new trait.

Obtained the “Moonlight Sword/Lunar Eclipse” for the first time.

===

The 'Lunar Eclipse' with its name engraved on it did not have an aura that could be uncontrollably shaken like before.

Thanks to this, I was able to deliver slightly more precise strikes.

'The left chest where the Hyrans family crest has not disappeared.'

– “Glory!!”

As Idel's spear and fist flew towards me while I was floating in the air, I spun around and shook them off.

After that, he stabbed me in the left chest with his sword.

Phew──!

The sword, which was bright black, invaded the guy's heart in an instant, unlike before.

– “Gurrrr, kuuuk.”

The symbol of the 'Hyrans family' split in one blow.

It is known that the soul stone of a humanoid demon is mostly located in the heart… … .

Edel was still moving.

“It wasn’t near the heart……!”

“He really is a clever kid……”

You talk about the glory of your family, but it's not your heart.

Fortunately, this attack was not originally intended to target Honseok.

The characteristic, "Lunar Eclipse", is sharp, but the focus of its power is the "explosive power" due to the repulsive force.

A sword that kills demons and the demon's characteristics.

As their mutually repulsive properties combined, a controlled explosion was felt rippling from the tip of the sword.

– “Ugh, ugh…….”

Kwajik──!

Several black sword blades shot out from Idel's body like shadows.

“The inside doesn’t look that solid….”

Pavabat!

Blood like mucus splattered across my face, and Ethel looked down at me as if time had stopped.

The gaze contained only one emotion among many, closer to a human's gaze than the red, fierce aura of a demon.

– “You, Yuri…… No.”

He, with the color of 'hatred' above his head, was looking at me as Idel of the Hyrans family, not as Demon Idel.

“You were not good to the royal family, were you? Weren’t you destroyed for causing trouble?”

This must be something 'Yurien' like.

– “Yuriaaaaaaaaaan!”

With a roar like a scream, Idel's body crumbles apart.

Crunch.

At the same time, the sword embedded in his heart falls to the floor.

Surrounding the 'lunar eclipse', the sword that had been dyed pitch black was gradually returning to its original 'moon sword'.

“……Haha, that’s a ridiculous monster.”

The black widow in the corner laughs in vain.

Linne, who had been flying to block the window, came to me with her tattered body.

“Are you okay, Sir Yurian!?”

Are you okay? Shit. I'm on the verge of death.

“It’s just embarrassing that I was hurt by a demon.”

Even in this situation, this guy's ego was putting on airs.

“……Don’t joke around. I can see through the scar to the other side!”

It's just as she said.

The wound on the window still remains, even though Sombra has stopped the bleeding.

With this level of injury, you should be able to at least say that it hurts.

“Injuries of this magnitude happen to prosecutors all the time.”

That guy's pride.
