84 – I am…!

“Hey, over there! Hello! “I am the best guild rookie in the world…!”

“Aren’t the Awakened the ones who killed all the goblin shamans?! I’m a fan! I fell in love with you at first sight when I saw you fighting, so please give me the honor of fighting with you…!”

“Our guild has a healer! If you’re feeling well, we’ll just attach you as a dedicated healer! Just perfect! All you have to do is come in person…!”

The awakened people rushed in like a swarm of bees and surrounded Kangwoo.

“Ah! Oh, don’t push! “We came first!!”

“Ahh! f*ck! “Who is the bastard who stepped on my foot!!”

From small and medium-sized guild rookies to ordinary awakened parties.

It’s hard to tell where all these people suddenly appeared.

The awakened people who gathered in an instant took out the souls of Kang-woo and his group.

“What is this?”

Lee Jeong-min, who until that moment had not withdrawn his hand from holding out his hand towards Kang-woo as if he was annoyed, made a dumbfounded expression.

“Brother! “Brother, wake up quickly!!”

“Oh, oh! Okay……!”

Because of the awakened people running towards me with their eyes lit up, I ended up getting trampled here and there if I lay around a little longer.

The party members, who had been staring blankly at the empty space where Kang-woo had quietly disappeared, surrounded by awakeners, hurriedly gathered their weapons and luggage and got up.

“Wait a minute! Hey, don’t act like this, let’s talk step by step…!”

Meanwhile, Kang-woo, who was tightly held by the awakened people, blocked the front with his shield and shouted at the top of his voice.

However, with dozens of people shouting and shouting at the same time, it is impossible for Kang-woo’s voice to be heard.

“Ahh! Don’t push! “Don’t push!!”

“Awakened!! Please join our party!”

“This bastard is so bad at fighting! “Where are you going to catch the bus?”

“What?! “You idiot, have you said everything now?!”

‘……f*ck.’

Kang-woo, who did not give up and screamed at the top of his lungs over and over again, soon shut his mouth.

Those humans cannot hear their own voices.

At this point, it seems like those humans didn’t come to talk to him, but to fight among themselves.

But if we don’t persuade those people here, there is no way to leave this place peacefully.

And so Kang-woo grits his teeth and tries to shout again…!

Wow!

“Oh, please! “Don’t push me!”

“Ahh! My feet! “Some guy stepped on me again when I stepped on him earlier…!”

‘f*ck.’

Kang-woo, who had been hit on the back of his head by someone’s outstretched arm, slowly raised one corner of his mouth.

‘Why not give it a try?’

Just, huh?! Tear it all down? Ok?!

Kangwoo’s hand holding the shield of protection trembled.

If you hit these humans with the same snap you used to hit the goblins during the day, it might not be as effective as the goblins, but it was still possible to break through the wall made up of these humans.

‘……Isn’t this enough self-defense?’

As the tempting thought grew bigger and bigger, Kang-woo, who was looking around with murderous eyes, stopped moving for a moment.

“……Wow, personality…Wow-“

An exclamation came out of Kangwoo’s mouth as he was being pushed around by people.

Where Kang-woo’s gaze was directed, there was Lee Jeong-min, who had taken refuge on the other side of a quiet street and was winking with a very relaxed face.

‘You didn’t get up when I told you to get up…!!’

They leave me here and run away among themselves???

An enormous sense of betrayal envelops my entire body.

“What, what? Where to live…”

When Kang-woo opens his eyes wide and glares at the group of people who are huddled around Lee Jeong-min and looking at this situation as if it were someone else’s business.

Kim Seung-ho jumped and shouted.

“Nooooo-!! Just count for 10 seconds and run!”

“What…?”

I couldn’t hear properly because the surroundings were so noisy, but as I watched Kim Seung-ho’s fingers fold one by one, I was able to roughly guess what he meant.

But now that we are surrounded by layers of awakened people, where and how can we escape?

“Everyone get out of the way! The Awakened One is in trouble! Awakened One, from our World Merchant Guild-!!”

‘I wish everyone would just turn it off… But what about the world? Didn’t I just say it was the best in the world…?’

Even as he continued to think nonsense, Seungho Kim’s fingers were steadily folded.

From Noble mtl dot com

So three… Two… One…

When all the fingers finally disappeared!

Howling!

A ball of flame rose from Park Ye-rin’s fingertips.

‘Oh, no, you want to burn all these people…?!’

Is it because it was an unexpected situation? Or is it because I know Park Ye-rin’s usual personality well?

“Oh, no…?”

As Kangwoo’s embarrassed face turned white, the completed ball of flame tore through the air without hesitation.

“Wow, crazy!!”

“Why, why are you doing that…! Huh……? What a ball of flame…”

Some of the awakened people who followed Kang-woo’s gaze and looked into space made foolish noises.

They can do that because they don’t know how destructive explosive power that small ball of flame has…!

“Am I really crazy…!”

That brief moment when a ball of fire flies feels like an eternity.

“Ah…?”

The moment when Kang-woo, who was in a hurry to follow the path where the flames would fall, lets out a single exclamation.

Quaaa!!

The flames that hit the streetlight exploded with a huge explosion sound.

“aaahhh-!!”

“uuuck-!!”

The unexpected attack immediately caused the awakened people to panic.

They did not know that the attack had hit a streetlight, so the aftermath would not be felt by them.

“Wow, crazy.”

After seeing the remains of the blown-out streetlight fluttering gently in the wind, Kang-woo quickly escaped from the panicked awakeners.

“Brother! “Here, here!”

Then, I wonder when they ran away there again, and I see party members running quickly in the distance.

Tap-tap-tap-tap-tap!

Kang-woo quickly closed the distance and shouted at Park Ye-rin, who was running ahead.

“No! “What are you going to do if you miss? Just throw it!”

“Wow! hehehehe, I don’t make mistakes…!”

Park Ye-rin’s face, which is breathing heavily, looks like it will make her angry at any moment if she says any more.

Still, the fact that he escaped thanks to that didn’t change, so Kang-woo kept his mouth shut and asked Yoo Seung-ah, who was running at the front.

“Where are you going?!!”

“Seungho-! Huh! If you go this way, there’s a cultural center! I did it-!”

“Cultural Center?”

In this situation, suddenly, what kind of cultural center is it?

Kang-woo did not understand, but Kim Seung-ho, who noticed this, came to his side and gave supplementary explanation.

“Going to the cultural center, huh! Not. If you go straight from there, there are a lot of buildings! Ugh-! Perfect for hiding!!”

“Ah…!”

Nodding his head, Kang-woo ran in step with the party members.

When I saw the eyes of those crazy awakened people, I didn’t think they would give up easily just because they ran away like this.

If it were those people, they would chase after me like crazy to find me first.

“Over there! Huh! That’s the cultural center! From here, you have to turn left!!”

“Left! Okay-!”

Yoo Seung-ah, who was running in the lead, turned left at the intersection.

One by one, the colleagues who were running behind him disappeared behind the corner.

Next, Kang-woo, who was turning a corner with Kim Seung-ho, suddenly slowed down when he saw his colleagues who were running ahead of him stop in a hurry.

“Oh, no…! “If you stop there so suddenly…!”

Kang-woo, who had frowned and expressed his dissatisfaction at the fact that he almost collided with his colleagues and was rolling on the floor, immediately stopped breathing at the sight that filled his vision.

Why did all my colleagues who were ahead have no choice but to stop in their seats?

When I saw the scene in front of me, I immediately understood.

“Oh my…”

A narrow lane made of pure white sidewalk blocks.

What filled the stomach was ‘blood.’

Red-red blood whose warmth has not yet gone away.

Defeating the goblins, and seeing the corpses of dead Lizardmen scattered here and there.

It’s a sight I’ve seen so many times, but in this alley, it has a different meaning.

The numerous corpses of awakened people with their limbs torn and strewn about made us guess that most of the red blood scattered on this road came from human bodies.

“Oh, how did this happen….”

Yoo Seung-ah cried and covered his mouth.

There are corpses everywhere you look, their painfully wide eyes digging into your chest and scratching you mercilessly.

Choi Seo-hee hugged Yoo Seung-ah, who was shedding clear tears.

Meanwhile, Kang-woo, who had recovered from the shock, deduced why this situation had occurred.

‘The road was narrow… So he was swept away and died without any way to stably defend himself against the oncoming Lizardmen.’

A small one-way road located behind the Awakened Association. Since this is where the safe zone barrier ends, it is natural that the awakened people would have moved here as well.

Like the awakened people who fell from the black gate that appeared in the air that I saw through the window at the convenience store.

However, unlike them, the place where they fell was a narrow road full of buildings on all sides, making it difficult to see, so there was a high probability that they would not have spotted the Lizardmen army approaching from afar.

Even if I heard the information late from the awakened people on the main street, it would have been too late.

The death of hundreds of awakened people.

Kangwoo, who had been silently staring at the miserable road for a long time due to the heavy weight, turned his head to the shouts coming from afar.

– I’m dying!

– Don’t leave a single one behind! Kill them all!

It was the shout of the awakened people chasing the Lizard Man.

“…….”

“…….”

Kang Woo, Lee Jung-min, Choi Seo-hee, Moon Jun-hyuk, Hwang Yi-seo, Yoon I-chan, and Park Ye-rin exchanged glances without saying a word.

Everyone except Kim Seung-ho and Yoo Seung-ah, who are in a panic, silently express their agreement.

‘Let’s go.’

‘Let’s go.’

So, after a silent conversation, except for Moon Jun-hyuk and Choi Seo-hee, who had decided to take care of Kim Seung-ho and Yoo Seung-ah, the remaining members gathered their weapons and were about to move on.

Suddenly, a man burst through the door of the cultural center and ran towards Kang-woo and his group.

“Ah…! You’ve finally arrived! Are you the people who heard the story from Seongbin? I am…! “I’m Geon Kim, the leader of the Red Devil Guild rookies!”
