Chapter 87

The momentum of the Rising Sun instantly revived when Biyemi was pushed back.

“Biyemi-nim! Shit”

Leeha wielded the large mana bayonet to remove his enemies and support Biyemi.

“Biyemi-nim, are you okay?”

“My vision is pretty red. There’s also the continuous bleeding damage.”

Biyemi glanced at his chest and clenched his teeth.

“I caught the lizard bastard! Nice!”

“Even that gunman won’t be able to shoot, I am looking forward to that coat! Hehe.”

Because 2 vs 6 battle was unreasonable.

It was good that they were able to kill two by surprise, but the succeeding fight could only result in a loss.

‘Damn it… I can’t die here. If only I could run……

Leeha looked at Lepanto.

Without Lepanto, he would have been able to use the hit-and-run strategy.

‘Should I give up the quest?’

Leeha seriously thought about dragging Biyemi to run.

The quest would be over anyway, once I die.

They can’t leave Lepanto alone, because he would die. In the end, no matter who died, the

quest would be over.

Leeha suddenly felt sad for Biyemi. Why did he have to take care of such a hindrance?

‘No, it isn’t like that. It was just bad luck.’

But that was only for a while. The camaraderie that they had since Candle Castle.

Considering that Biyemi had helped him until now, Leeha thought that their current circumstance was just an unfortunate event.

“Phew, who is this? Is he also your friend?”

“Hehe, hey! Kill him too! Why are they carrying a beggar around?”

The instantaneous sprint speed of a melee dealer was much faster than Leeha’s basic run. They would be able to cut him while he was reloading.

However, if he stayed still, he would die.

It was a bit reckless buy he had to gamble. Now, when these guys are careless.

‘I will run, I only need to earn 50 seconds.’

He will attract their attention. and all four would follow.

He wouldn’t be able to reload completely, but it would be able to earn distance from Biyemi and Lepanto, and if there’s a gap…… Biyemi should be able to move again.

What if the people that followed him hesitated or panicked for a while?

He might be able to finish reloading. If he did it right, he might be able to create an opportunity for a counterattack.

First, Leeha needed time.

“That person is an NPC. If you killed an NPC, wouldn’t it be a problem for you too?”

Leeha shouted.

“Haha, it’s an NPC. What if we kill one or two NPCs. Just stay still, you bastard.”

“Ho, aren’t you an important bastard? He’s telling me not to kill you.”

“Right? Hey! If you give me your coat and boots, I won’t kill this beggar. So give it to me.”

Again, the eyes of the four focused on Lepanto.

Should I run now?

Just as Leeha was about to tell Biyemi the plan, a whisper came from Biyemi first.

– Run when I count to three.

-What? What?

– Before I die, I will cast a magic spell. I’m telling you to go far away. You can’t get involved. One.

– W-Wait. Biyemi-nim, what are you doing? Stop! We have to figure out a way to survive! I am looking for-

-No. I brought them here, so I am responsible for them. Get ready, two.

“Are you going to give it to me or not? Do you want me to kill this beggar? Huh?”

Those men were shaking their asses and making fun of Leeha and Biyemi.

“Hyung-nim, just kill them. We have another target.”

“Right, we can kill them again once they reconnect.”

The front-most warrior grabbed Lepanto and lifted him up.

“First of all, this beggar!”

And he swung his sword.

“Damn it! It’s not-”

It was not over! Leeha stood up and tried to reload, but Lepanto’s body was nowhere to be seen.

There was not even blood. It was inevitable.

Puuuk—.

Because Lepanto avoided it.

“Who are you?”

Lepanto, who stood next to the sword, opened his mouth.

“W-What, t-this bastard.……”

Lepanto got up and stretched his neck left and right.

The guild members of Rising Sun were a little bewildered by his casual look and took a step back.

“What are you doing!”

“Squi- no, outlander. Are these your enemies?”

Lepanto’s voice was heavy. Wearing torn rags, he walked towards Leeha with his bare feet, but no one stopped him.

“Did your mental health get healed?”

Leeha asked.

“Mental? Ah, it was a little different, but yes. The magic seems to have been broken.”

“Magic?”

Leeha looked at Lepanto’s eyes.

A blue light flashed through the sagging bangs. His face was covered with dirt, but his eyes were shining.

His eyes were so intense that Leeha wondered if he was the same crazy person from a while ago.

Lepanto looked around slowly.

“The Marching Plains…… Right. Did I come back here?”

“What is this bastard talking about? Hey, you!”

There were still four Rising Sun guild members left.

It was shameful for them to be scared of a beggar without a weapon.

The warrior with a two-handed sword increased his speed.

“Sprinting slash!”

A powerful diagonal slash is used by kicking the ground and letting the body fly.

He slashed his sword with such force that it looked like it wanted to separate Lepanto’s body.

“Slow. Rompre.”

Paak, however, the two-handed sword only hit the ground.

Lepanto was already five steps away.

“What, how did you dodge my skill?”

“Is it because you quickly stepped backward?”

His body did not seem to move away, not even an inch.

As if he teleported with the same posture and only his lower body moved.

“Is that all you’ve got, outlander? The Demon King will laugh at you.”

“W-what are you talking about? You one-armed beggar!”

“A true warrior does not need a weapon or even an arm.”

“You sound like a crazy bastard!”

“En garde.”

The Rising Sun guild user, whose face was red, raised his two-handed sword again.

Lepanto’s movement against him was concise. He slightly bent his knee and prepared his right

arm lightly.

“Concentrate hit him from above!”

“Battement.”

The Rising Sun guild member ran and struck his two-handed sword.

At the same time, Lepanto narrowed their distance.

His right arm was headed towards the Rising Sun guild member’s two-handed sword.

‘Sword Hand?’

In an instant, Lepanto’s palm struck the sharpened blade of the two-handed sword.

Clang!

As if it was hit by another sword, the two-handed sword spun sideways.

“Kuooh?”

“Attaque Simple, Coup droit.”

Lepanto’s body ‘stretched’ towards the Rising Sun guild member.

His right arm, which had stretched, stabbed like a sword and dug into his opponent’s armpit.

It hit the joint between the upper body and the arm, it was one of the weaknesses of the human body.

Lepanto’s claw ripped through his opponent’s armor and dug into his muscle.

“Kaaa- Kuwaak!!!”

“Youngest!”

“Aah, Q-quick, I can’t move my arms!”

“You beggar bastard!!!”

“Double Slash!”

“Flash.”

The men wielded their swords and surrounded Lepanto.

It was a sword that was quickly cut twice, from above and in the middle, but it did not reach Lepanto.

Lepanto showed an advanced technique of avoiding without moving, to be precise, avoiding by only moving his knees.

“Oh my goodness…”

He bent his front knee, straightened his back knee, lowered his upper body, and then he did the opposite, he straightened his front knee, bent his back knee, and leaned back.

The joints of his body moved like spring to avoid the attacks.

The Rising Sun guild member’s double slash did not even manage to cut his fluttering left sleeve.

“Contre-attaque, Balestra.”

After the attack skill was over, Lepanto did not miss the chance to attack.

He jumped forward using his front foot, lowered his upper body, and stretched out his right arm.

“C-crazy, how can a hand attack like this-”

He hurriedly raised his sword, but Lepanto’s arm did not stop.

It was then that the blue light that covered his hands and arms faintly caught his eyes, which meant it was already too late.

“Attaque Simple, Fente.”

“D-deputy commander! Help- Haak!”

Tututuk, the iron plate wrinkled. Lepanto’s one and only arm was inside the Rising Sun guild member’s left chest.

A direct hit to the heart resulted in instant death. Before the user could turn gray, Lepanto already pulled out his arm and headed for his next target.

Light and fast movement, with flexible arm. Perfect attack skills.

No one saw him as a beggar or a one-armed man anymore.

Even Ha Leeha and Biyemi could feel it. Even if all the Rising Sun guild members attacked

Lepanto at the same time, would not be able to win.

No, they won’t even be able to touch his sleeve.

“I will remember. Lizard……. One-arm……. And gunman……. Keok!”

“Phew……

After the third hole drilled into the chest of the Rising Sun guild member, Lepanto withdrew his right arm.

He lowered his head toward the graying-colored corpse with his legs together.

His manners until the end were no longer that of a beggar’s, but a perfect knight.

“Amazing……. Hali-hali-nim, who is this person? Where did you find this NPC? He’s that strong without a sword……! Isn’t he better than Shin Nara?”

“Shin Nara?”

“He is ranked 6th in the world! Fencer Shin Nara! He’s Korean, didn’t you know? Hali-hali-nim, didn’t you say you’re Korean?”

He only remembered after hearing the story. It was obvious, as the Korean Flag was drawn in 6th place. He didn’t even remember the nickname…….

“Ahh. I saw it in the rankings. But, Biyemi-nim is speaking as if he had seen it?”

“T-that. Haha, I saw it. Before…… oh, he is coming!”

What? Biyemi, who was suddenly bewildered, tapped Leeha.

Lepanto approached Leeha and Biyemi.

Eyes still shining through the bangs. When Leeha saw his eyes full of speculation, he was also nervous.

‘Is this the flow of the quest? If I bring him all the way here, was it the right way to do it? He won’t attack me, will he?’

However, Lepanto flustered Leeha in a different way.

He kneeled in front of Leeha.

“……Lepanto-nim?”

“Thank you. You…… If it wasn’t for you, my life would have ended like that. Despised by everyone, and lost all my memories. Thank you so much.”

“Ah, don’t mention it. Lepanto-nim. That… But, finding the rapier……

“Ah, the rapier is here. Didn’t I tell you, I can tell where the rapier is.”

“Yes?”

Hmm, that wasn’t the only thing he said when his mind was wandering. Leeha did not want to reveal it.
