Episode 190 :
Premonition
“…?”
Modrin, who was sitting on the throne, frowned quietly.
This is because I could not properly understand what was happening on the screen I was watching the whole time.
She was directly observing the situation after the match between the Snow Tiger Tribe and the Desert Snake Tribe began.
As the warchief, he had prepared a desert terrain that was unilaterally advantageous to the Desert Snake tribe as a stadium.
‘Now we have to see the results.’
I was looking forward to the match between Schaffen Seid and Ukoha with great excitement.
‘Ukoha of the Desert Snake Tribe is still young, but he is a warrior whose mind control skills have already reached the highest level.’
If the conditions were right, it was a powerful force that could literally show one hundred per day of ability.
And as expected….
Crrrrralaralala!
Ukoha used his skill, the Desert Basilisk Summoning Art, to charge head-on.
In the currently boiling hot desert, the Desert Basilisk was a monster capable of more destructive power than ever before.
‘It’s a dangerous monster for even a decent number of veteran warriors to face alone.’
Can you really win?
While Modrin thinks so.
Eventually, the two teams met on a desert sand dune.
The fight broke out quickly.
Modrin’s eyes sparkled as he looked at the dust cloud rising with the fierce battle.
‘Now show me your limits. Stranger wizard.’
Show me the full extent of that power!
But at that very moment.
Kwasik.
The sand dune began to collapse with an impact sound as if something was loudly breaking.
And a huge howl.
-Guuuuuu!
It was the Basilisk’s.
‘What happened now?’
Modrin stood up from his throne and narrowed his eyes.
Golden waves were washing down the hill.
That wasn’t all.
“…!”
A huge amount of red blood flowing out, soaking the surface of the sand.
Could it be human blood?
Or the blood of a monster snake?
…I didn’t know.
What is clear is that there was some violent collision on the hill.
But now I couldn’t see anything clearly because of the thick sand dust.
The scarlet clouds that enveloped the hill hid not only the warriors but also the basilisk’s body.
So, looking at the screen, I couldn’t figure out what was happening inside at all.
“You beast spirits! “Come on, show me a different perspective!”
The warchief urged the beast spirits to understand the situation.
But other angles were not much different either.
-….
The sand dust was hiding the scene like a curtain on a stage.
“damn.”
In the end, Modrin didn’t find out anything.
She could only wait quietly for the dust cloud to settle.
Finally, the next moment.
“…this.”
Modrin kept his mouth shut.
It was the basilisk that had been active like the ruler of the sandy desert just moments before.
But now he was lying on the sand dune, convulsing, with his tongue out.
Surprisingly, the owner of the fresh blood flowing from the hill was a monster snake.
‘Was there an impact to the head?’
Because of the dust cloud, I couldn’t see exactly what happened, so I could only guess.
At the same time, a thought suddenly crossed my mind.
‘Could this be what they were aiming for?’
Could it be that they intentionally concealed what they were doing?
“….”
Considering the movements shown by the mixed-blood Orc warrior earlier, it was a very possible story.
A dust cloud intentionally created through violent movement…
‘Yes, that’s right.’
Clearly, the northern wizard was trying to hide his abilities.
“You’re arrogant.”
However, the warchief who muttered that did not look very unpleasant.
In fact, it was the opposite.
‘It’s very fun. ‘I wish you were more cocky.’
He had a deep smile on his lips.
Excited like an audience waiting for a momentarily curtained stage.
“…Schappen Seid.”
She crossed her legs, muttering the stranger wizard’s name.
A strong man who hides himself like that.
As the warchief, I had no choice but to covet him even more.
And right then…
“Can I beat him?”
Likewise, Eikir, who was watching the game, felt deep fear.
* * *
“Whew.”
I swung the Heviod and shook off the blood.
System messages were flashing before my eyes.
[You have subdued the Desert Snake Clan’s summoned animal, ‘Desert Basilisk’!]
[Defeat it completely to obtain a greater reward.]
The Desert Basilisk lying on the desert was not yet completely dead.
If he attacked once more and destroyed the head, he would be able to achieve what the system called a ‘complete kill’.
As the message said, you will receive slightly more hunting rewards.
But I didn’t.
…Because this is enough for now.
‘Ukoha could die.’
The problem was the mental link between the Basilisk and its controller, Ukoha.
Usually, strong damage can forcibly break the connection.
But what if the passage isn’t properly broken?
‘If the Basilisk dies, Ukoha dies with it.’
There is no need to take that risk.
For that reason, I was satisfied with putting the basilisk in a dying state.
The blow that Vinokharas unleashed in the sand and dust earlier was enough to achieve the desired goal.
“Good job Kim Piyon.”
-Hehe, I didn’t know my back feet were this strong either.
I chuckled at the words coming from the inventory.
I once saw a bird called ‘Snake-catching Eagle’ in a documentary about the nature of Africa.
A bird of prey with beautiful black and white feathers and standing upright on very long legs.
The way this snake-catching eagle hunts snakes was simple.
‘They hit the head hard with their long legs and break it.’
The snake crawling on the floor smashed its skull before it could even raise its head.
Even if it was a poisonous snake, it would not hesitate to kill it by cutting it down and crushing it.
And I ordered Vinocaras to do something similar.
“Crush the Basilisk’s head with all your might.”
-good! Because the meat won’t spoil!
Vinocaras emerged briefly from the sand dust.
It folded its wings and pressed down on the Desert Basilisk’s head.
Since the Basilisk was just about to hide its body in the sand…
‘It’s the perfect time to strike.’
In fact, Piyong’s level of force was only Grade A.
Considering that all other physique magic resistances were S grade or higher, it could be said to be somewhat disappointing.
But Piyong overcame even that with his extraordinary magical power.
-My meat!
While minimizing the movement to prevent the dust cloud from flying away….
[Attack Technique: Body Slam]
A huge amount of magical power was concentrated in the hind legs and struck.
thud!
The head of the monster snake that was going into the ground was crushed by the tremendous impact.
“…omg.”
The stamping was so powerful that it shook the sand dunes as if an earthquake had occurred.
Actually, I was planning to take advantage of the basilisk’s stumble and stab it hard in the vital spot.
“You’re sure he’s not dead, right?”
-huh? You have to die to eat it, right? I don’t like being eaten alive.
“No, you can’t kill it in one hit because of the controller…”
Instead of hitting the vital point, I was worried that Piyong might have killed the basilisk instantly.
Gooooooooooo!
Fortunately, the basilisk soon twisted its whole body and let out a loud howl.
I sighed.
“Okay, he’s not dead. “Then Ukoha will still be alive, right?”
However, the Basilisk is unable to move properly as it was so traumatized by the dragon’s blow.
I nodded, especially as I watched the body below the head tremble.
“It looks like the nerves going down the neck have been damaged. Okay, this is enough.”
After completing his role, Piyong returned to his inventory.
-Take care of the meat, Dad!
I ended up ordering snake meat, which I couldn’t even think about doing.
‘Could it be that Dongryong is that gluttonous too?’
I think I’ll have to hit Genere hard on the back of the head, even if it’s just for food expenses.
With those random thoughts in mind, I raised the hilt of the Heviod sword high.
The sand dust was still thick, but it would soon settle.
‘In any case, Vinocaras’ existence must be hidden as much as possible.’
She was the most powerful card I had right now and my precious daughter.
I had no intention of showing it to the world just yet.
Whoosh.
The moment when Heviod’s sharp blade pierced between the bones of the Basilisk.
Red blood spurted like a fountain and splattered onto the sand.
Pugh!
Then, he extended the blade and secured a large piece of meat.
Why are you curious about snake meat?
“Well, anyway, this will be enough, right?”
From the outside, it will look like the basilisk has been defeated by my strike.
That’s how I kept the existence of the weapon that subdued the monster snake hidden.
Sussss….
The cloudy dust soon settled.
The appearance of the neutralized monster snake would also have been revealed to the visitors outside.
“Shark! Kadira!”
Holding the sword dripping with blood, I raised my voice and called out to the two people.
As they approached, their eyes widened.
“Three goodness!”
Kadira, who was completely outside the dust, was astonished.
“….”
Shark, who created the dust cloud himself and felt the shock wave of Vinokharas up close, quietly looked at me and the Basilisk in turns.
It seems as if the gaze is asking for additional explanation.
But I didn’t respond.
Instead, he gave me something to do.
“There must be warriors of the Desert Snake tribe hiding somewhere near here. Find them as quickly as possible.”
It is a wake-up call.
Just because you catch that basilisk doesn’t mean the game is over.
“Find and disarm the next monster snake before it is summoned!”
“yes! “Wizard!”
“All right.”
Of course, the ‘next monster snake’ will not be summoned.
Because Ukoha’s mental strength won’t be able to withstand it.
It was just a judgment that could have been made by a foreign wizard ignorant of the circumstances of the beast race.
These words were said to put pressure on the Desert Snake tribe members who were hiding somewhere and thinking about what to do next.
After shaking off the blood and retrieving the Hebiod, I watched Kadira deploy her detection capabilities.
Soon after, Shark ran across the desert and pulled a huge bow.
‘That’s right, that guy was originally an archer, right?’
It didn’t take long for the versatile half-breed orc to find the desert serpent warriors.
“Kwaeok…”
As if my worries were for naught, Ukoha was in a state of fainting with a steady stream of nosebleeds.
“I surrender.”
“I lost.”
Unlike the Vole Tribe in the first round, the Desert Snake Warriors immediately admitted defeat.
And that’s how the game ended.
[You won the second battle.]
[It is an overwhelming and complete victory.]
[Rewards are given for special achievements.]
[Check the reward.]
[Your level has increased!]
Now my level is 38.
Next card There were two steps left until the shuffle.
And just as I already expected.
‘The god of erasure did not reside in Ukoha.’
