How the Villain Lives

41. Who does?

"How, how did this happen?!"

'Good, we're just a few minutes away!'

Arben began to emit more magical power by hiding the color of such joy. The enemy who appears to be the captain of the Dark Elf certainly had enormous power to match his abilities, but with no escort at all, Arben started the fight by sneaking in first, leading to a rather inferior fight.

Of course, no matter how strong Arben was, he couldn't deal with Crimson, the boss himself. However, due to Lucia's backup, I managed to narrow the gap somewhat, and most importantly, Arben's sword played a major role.

Spank!

Crimson, who looked at the dagger taken out of his arms in vain, quickly avoided Arben's examination as he grinded it. I wanted to ask how humans and elves broke in here like chimneys. So once I put my life in my hands to save it. However, it was no longer a viable situation.

"I need to kill you and find out what happened to me."

"I don't think you're capable of that."

"Khhhhhh, do you think I've really dealt with you so far?"

Crimson throws a broken dagger at Arben and retreats. The moment I extended my arm to the side, I found a long bow wrapped in black energy in nothing. He was surprised by the anomaly, but Arben was keeping a cool eye on the current situation.

'We should not drag them into the long run.'

There are no exceptions.

If you don't cover your race, if you don't cover your boss, if you don't cover your mess, if you don't know the skills of your opponent in advance when dealing with your enemies, even users or Arben himself, you won't come out of power from the beginning. If it's natural, it sounds natural. There is no reason to be strong from the beginning, not because you are very careful.

Not every time you kill an enemy, you have to take some sense of their skills and decide how to respond appropriately. However, there is a gap in this natural behavior.

'All types of boss monsters are much stronger if the battle passes for a certain period of time or if their HP drops above a certain level.'

That's why it's so hard and dangerous to catch a boss monster. Sufficient advance investigation is required and a number of perfect candidates are required. However, if you analyze these words well, you will find the optimal timing to end the enemy immediately.

As soon as the enemy sees it, it is better to pour all the power you have at that time to do as much damage as possible or to succeed with a lightning strike. If the enemy comes or there are monsters like Richie, it may be difficult to measure the timing. But if you're doing what you do now, you can easily catch the feeling. Aren't you telling yourself?

"I wonder how many shots you can take."

Pulling the protest, a black arrow begins to form on the bow.

An arrow that looks very familiar without knowing where. If Sung-hoon had been here, he would have been in a hurry to kill Crimson, but either fortunately or unhappily, he was in a place far away from here, and he was someone else to deal with Crimson.

'I'm going.'

"Soul burn!"

Strength exceeds 1000.

Creates a composite skill.

Agility breaks through 1000.

Accident Acceleration Skill is created.

Increases HP by 1000.

Creates Rigid Skill.

Bloop!

Everyone around the moment could see the blue flame rising from Arben's body. Lucia's buff speeds up the movement one more time.

"Yiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii."

Tearing!

The world has slowed down.

In a slow world, it was only Crimson and Arben who were moving at normal speeds, or at speeds above normal. Arrows were fired as soon as the finger that was holding the protest became free. The arrow that flies like a light in this slow world is aiming precisely at Arben's heart.

'Even if you're right, you don't die.'

It has armor and has protective magic and defense skills. And the attack is not aimed at the minor, so it can last long enough. But if we try to stop that attack, there will inevitably be a distance between the two. At first glance, Crimson is a boss mob that shoots arrows. There is no chance to get close to such an enemy except when you are as careful as you are now.

'What you need to wield your sword....'

Arben had never thought deeply about swords, even before he started this mission. That was natural. No one could deal with him if he swung his sword without bearing great significance. However, when I met an apparent strong man who didn't even think of Myrina, I changed greatly.

Due to his original talent, enthusiasm, obsession, and fighting ahead of himself, Arben was able to grow overwhelmingly through several walls recently. Arben did not avoid the arrow. His eyes stare at Crimson without a hint of agitation, and he pours down from top to bottom without leaving any power in his body.

'Faith in the sword I wield, and devotion!'

That commitment drives the miracle. Crimson, of course, thought Arben would defend himself to avoid or reduce the damage. If you aim at that gap and step back and shoot one at a time, you can kill all the people in this place. Arben, however, did not retreat.

The moment the arrow was fired, to be precise, Crimson had been dropping his sword from top to bottom before the demonstration, and the arrow, which seemed as though it would hit Arben, was caught in the trajectory of Pragarach and split in half neatly. And even the Crimson beyond it completely split.

Tuck.

Crimson, staring at the broken bow, said with a blunt expression.

"I told this kid..."

Boo boo!

Crimson could not even pay attention to Arben, who had been neatly cut from the crown to the groin. Arben's mind has just been drawn to the sword he wielded.

'Paradoxically, would I have just succeeded in this attack without ghosts and mirinas?'

I can assure you.

If it had been you who had grown up here without any hardship, you certainly would not have succeeded in saving this life just now. No, I wouldn't even think of wielding a sword like this in the first place. Ironically, I was able to become that strong because I had powerful enemies.

Soul Burn skill will be unlocked.

"Argh!"

"Brother! Are you okay?!"

"It's okay. It's okay. I'm just relaxing for a second. Huuuuuuuuu."

Soul Burn that increases abilities to the maximum for a certain period of time is a powerful skill, but in return, you should literally endure the burning pain of the soul. In fact, what I got was a war veteran, but I haven't used it for a long time because of the terrible pain, but now I've changed my mind without hesitation in the situation I need.

"Awesome!"

"Arben! Are you okay?!"

"The Dark Elves' Grand Warrior is alone..."

Elves who could not get into the fight and were just watching came trembling and began to support Arben. It would be even weirder if you weren't surprised because you singled out Crimson, known as the greatest warrior of hundreds of thousands of Dark Elves. But Arben was not arrogant.

"This is a victory you could have won because your opponent was wary. If he had taken it a little more seriously or cautiously, the outcome might have been different."

It was just in time for the terrible attack that everyone put in using the vigilance that monsters have. Arben handed it over as though it wasn't great, but in fact, it's a terrific place that ordinary people can't reach. Having recovered from Lucia's recovery, Arben wakes up and slightly frowns.

"Brother, is there somewhere you haven't recovered yet?"

"No, that's not it, I'm just a little nervous."

"Anxious! This is our complete victory! Now is the time to rejoice!"

"Yes, of course, the remaining hostiles are a little troublesome, but if you join the Lou Church's reinforcements soon enough..."

"As long as you've already lost your home...."

"Even if you just drag the time... anyway."

The Elves were celebrating victory with a smiling face, but Arben's expression only hardened coldly. And then Lucia realized what Arben was worried about.

"Ghost!"

"That's right. I can't see him."

Even if I cut off the enemy's head, Arben couldn't be relieved that there was no ghost.

"I definitely thought I'd see him."

"Aren't you worried too much? If you're not here, you'll be out front trying to destroy the defensive field now. Don't worry about it."

"No, that's not possible. There's no way a ghost could be so vain."

It was funny, but Arben was convinced that he had beaten the ghost perfectly, but in a corner of his mind he thought that the ghost would fight back in some way. However, while sweeping through the Dark Elves' backyards, food depots, Node towns, and their strongholds, he managed to win so easily without really getting in the way. I couldn't understand that. However, Arben said with his head up, as he was unable to draw time until when.

"From now on, let the wounded stay and follow slowly from behind. As we slowly advance to the main axis, we will join our colleagues who have left the Dark Elves at the Node, one after the other, to ambush the Dark Elves from behind."

"Wouldn't this be a little bit insufficient? No matter how much you ambush the rear, in the whole number..."

"Don't worry. Reinforcements from the Lou Church will strike the Dark Elves in time. At the same time, we will counterattack the defensive ships."

Unexpected merge in front, back and sides!

Moreover, no matter how you get out of the joint venture, the home of the Dark Elves has already been burned down. This is the final stage of Arben's scheme. Even if many Dark Elves escape, they will no longer pose a major threat to them.

"The first is safety, and the second is safety. As slowly as possible..."

Arben, who had been paying attention for the last moment, was forced to stop talking and focus his gaze somewhere.

The fire was burning. No matter how much darkness there is, there is a war and there is a light in this situation. With Arben's vision right now, even the lights on the battlefield that Elves and Dark Elves are fighting from afar would be faint.

Nevertheless, there was a reason Arben had to concentrate his gaze on the fire that suddenly appeared. There was a light flashing far back than the line of defense. It is not a seeming fire either.

Big. No, big is not enough. It is overwhelming, as if the sun were suddenly shining on this entire forest. At first I thought it was something's luminescence magic. However, it was soon easy to notice that it was not.

"That, that..."

The fire was not just floating in the air. It was increasingly being called out in that size. An elf blindfolded as she guessed what that flame was. Not only that, but everyone in the place realized it. But I couldn't get that out of my mouth. Because that was absolutely impossible.

It can never happen. It's like the sun disappears or gravity disappears.

"Hey!"

Lucia suddenly screams at Arben's actions, grabbing her waist. Arben, however, embraced Lucia with a familiar hand and began to run forward with power. Lucia tried to say something, but when she saw Arben's face hardened, she shut up.

It's a ghost!

There is no evidence, but the moment I saw that flame, I intuitively realized what he had done. Even if it wasn't for the ghost himself, it was likely that he was involved in some way. Then I shouldn't hesitate here. I have to get back at least an hour. I don't think all the helpless people who have no power to fight there will point their swords at them, no matter how evil the ghosts are.

However, but..

'As soon as possible!'

In front of the unbelievable idea of setting fire to the water of the world, not only Arben, but everyone in this forest was terrified.
