03. Guild Fair (11)

After discussing the strategy with Baek Ji-su, Sang-woo Sang-woo, and Ah-ran Im, they each settled down in their assigned positions.

Im Ah-ran and her guild members wiped out the monsters, but that’s only a small part.

「Geu, uh uh… !”

Once again, the group of corpses formed an army and began marching towards us.

There was no time for further delay.

I sent a hand signal to start the operation, and after confirming it, Aran Lim nodded her head from behind her.

“Reload!”

Lim Ah-ran gave instructions to her guild members, carrying an arrow through her own longbow and pulling her string with all her might.

Kude deuk… ! The strings were pulled tight and the bowstring was bent.

“Strife!”

Pyong! Dozens of hunters shot arrows at once, raining down from the sky and piercing the heads of ghouls and zombies.

Im Ah-ran’s arrow also left the demonstration.

Swoon! Unlike other arrows that drew a parabola, the arrow, which flew in a straight line with tremendous tension, exploded with colorful sparks exactly halfway between Banshee and me.

Kwaguawang!! A grotesque sight of a corpse being torn into pieces and scattered in all directions.

However, there is no time to look away from the battlefield.

The first step in the operation is for Aran Lim to clear a path from her rear with her supporting fire.

She made her way to the point of admirable perfection, as if to prove her own rank.

I looked at Sang-Woo Sang-woo, meaning to start the second one, and he slammed his shield into the ground, shouting in a booming voice.

“You bastards! Are you ready!”

The guild members of Sang-woo Sang-woo formed a wedge like an arrow.

They raised their shields so they could jump out at any moment and exhaled wildly.

“Yes! Brother!”

“Okay! Turn around, oh oh oh oh oh oh–!!”

Hunters with shields ran forward shouting at Gam Sang-woo’s command at the same time.

I was at the far end of the wedge camp.

I grabbed the three-man sword and ran forward under their escort.

Runs quickly through a road pierced by arrows.

However, the road was created only for a short time, and once again an army of corpses rushed in from all directions to fill the gap.

“Hryaaap!”

Tung! Kwajik! Sang-woo Sang-woo hit the ghoul at the forefront with his shield, then slammed the fallen ghoul’s head down with the edge of his shield.

“Don’t stop! Push with your shield! I’m risking my life to send this guy to the head of the boss!”

“Yes!!”

Aran Im’s second support shot poured in just in time.

Shuuung – Papababa Park!

Arrows rained down from the sky, knocking down an army of corpses and making a path again.

“Run!”

“Wowaaa!!”

It loses speed while advancing while catching each one. When the shield charge loses momentum, that’s it.

To keep up the pace, Sang-woo Sang and his guild members frantically wielded their shields, almost pushing back the hordes of ghouls and zombies.

Tung! Empty! Kwajik! Gam Sang-wu runs, breaking his head, only to the extent of the guys grabbing his ankles.

If you delay even a little, you may be surrounded by the thugs swarming from behind.

The sound of their breathing as they wielded their shields until they smelled of sweetness was filled with an indescribable sense of fear.

“Wowaaa!!”

“Come on! Come on!”

As if they were trying to hide their fear, they let out a rather loud roar.

“Kuh… !”

I felt nervous at the thought of being protected and doing nothing behind them desperately making their way, but I managed to suppress that feeling.

I must not forget my role. All I have to do is finish the Banshee.

If you wield a sword with your guild members and lose your stamina, that would be a complete turnaround.

As I ran and ran, I reached the banshee’s eyes before I knew it. If you advance a little further, you’ll reach her right in front of your nose.

However, Sang-woo Sang-woo’s guild members lost all their charging power and stood still.

“Heo Eok, Heo Eok!”

“This is the limit, brother… !”

There is a limit to pushing ahead with quantity and enduring with grit and grit.

If this side is a shield charge, the other side is a physical bullet charge. Guild members who had already consumed all of their physical strength were limited to holding up their shields and maintaining the camp so that they would not fall.

But this is what I expected. The second step could be called successful enough.

I met Sang-woo Sang-woo’s gaze and nodded at the same time.

From now on, it was my turn.

“Okay, good job! Now unite in a circle! Hold on until you catch the banshee!”

Sangwoo Sang-woo orders the guild members who have suffered so far to defend.

I jumped out with Sang-woo Sang-woo from the back of the camp and ran towards the banshee with all my might.

「Cut, clam!」

A group of ghouls pushing their bodies against me, clashing their jawbones. I raised my three-person sword.

You shouldn’t just ignore it as a corpse. Ghouls are mid-level monsters among the undead. Its vitality was very tenacious, and its skin was harder than most steel.

“Hey! Ghouls are resistant to physical damage, so they don’t cut well with knives! Don’t lose your strength, just tell me… !”

Suddenly! A ghoul that splits its body in half with a single sword. The ink-colored black surface trembled slightly.

The power of the exorcist possessed by the three-person sword is the power to cut evil. It was well eaten by spirits and demons as well as undead.

Seeing a ghoul, which is difficult to deal with even a B-class hunter due to its physical resistance, being cut with a single knife, Sang-woo Sang-woo widened his eyes and laughed heartily.

“Ha ha ha ha!! That knife is so hot! Where did you get it?!”

“I made it!”

After all, this is a fact that can no longer be hidden, so I answered honestly.

Chack! It cuts down each approaching ghoul one by one. Every time the three-person sword was swung, one ghoul fell and did not rise again.

“What! You made it!?”

Sam Sang-wu opens his mouth in a shriek with a look on his face as he heard the words that made him doubt his ears. Then, as if he had found a coveted treasure, he smiled broadly and shouted loudly at me.

“You bastard! Come to our guild later! No, just hit the academy now! I won’t accept it! Instead, make me something identical to that knife!”

“I don’t like it!”

If you beat the academy, you won’t even get a hunter’s license, but that was ridiculous.

And the three-person sword was made from the sword Baek Ji-soo brought from the future, so I don’t have the confidence to make the same thing twice.

“Ha ha ha! Is that so!!”

Sam Sang-wu smiles and wields a shield as if it was just a suggestion he made.

It was a useless conversation, but thanks to that, the tension was somewhat relieved.

I regained my composure and analyzed the situation before swinging my sword.

Because ghouls are slow, they didn’t need any special skills to defeat even non-combat enemies. But not as much as Banshee.

In order to properly land an attack on the flying banshee, I had to tie my feet first.

Since Gam Sang-woo’s guild members carried me through enough paths, it didn’t take long for me to reach the front of the banshee while wielding a three-man sword.

A banshee looking down at me while floating in the air, estimated to be 5m high.

I didn’t avoid that gaze, I glared at him and shouted Baek Ji-soo’s name as I had decided beforehand.

“Jisoo!”

I wondered if my voice could reach it properly from this distance, but I could feel her magical energy fluctuating in the distance, perhaps waiting for me to arrive in front of the banshee.

A brightly shining magic circle is drawn on the ground. A chain of pure white magic extends from under Banshee’s feet.

A high level magic formula.

Bongmajin (封魔陣).

「Ki——!!!」

Charleurreuk! The chain roared and coiled around the banshee like a living snake.

The banshee struggled in the air to somehow drop her chains, but the more she did, the stronger the chains tightened around her body.

Now was the opportunity.

I immediately looked at Shim Sang-woo, and as if he had waited, he lowered his body low and raised his shield obliquely.

“Come!”

A perfect foothold has been prepared. I jumped with all my might and landed on Sang-woo Sang-woo’s shield.

“Hraaa!!”

Tung!! He aimed exactly at the timing when I landed on the shield and slammed the shield upwards with all his strength.

Boom! My body, which is shot into the air like a shell, jumps more than 10m in an instant.

「Kiki, Kiki—!!」

Mighty magic that gathers in front of Banshee in an instant. The banshee shot a beam of her magical energy at me floating in the air.

That was outrageous. Compared to the previous time when he broke Baek Ji-soo’s defense, his speed and magic were insignificant.

But if I get hit head-on, I’ll easily blow at least one of them.

So, as I fell from the sky, I raised the blade of my three-person sword toward the banshee.

“aaa!!”

Rotate around in the air by twisting your back. The acceleration of the falling movement was carried all over the body.

Ahh! The trajectory of the three swords drew a straight circle, splitting the purple light in half.

「Feel———!?」

That was the Banshee’s last breath. Splitting the beam in half, using that momentum, cut the banshee’s body in half from head to tip.

Chack! The feeling of being gently cut touched my fingertips.

Rotate around and land on the floor at high speed. Bang! A tremendous shock hit his entire body, but fortunately, his body, reinforced by Baek Ji-soo’s magic, withstood the shock.

The halved body of the banshee lost its strength and fell to the ground.

This was the moment I caught the boss for the second time.

–

The time Kim Yi-jin caught the banshee. Square outside the exhibition hall.

A man clad in armor wields a greatsword as tall as himself.

With the sound of the air ripping, swords flew in and nearby objects such as statues and fountains mercilessly shattered.

“Nobody can enter! If you come, come! This Namgoong-Min will rip-a-rash me!”

“Ha….”

A girl walked through the dust among the rubble as if she barely escaped the sword.

It’s been a long time since the hair and clothes that were dressed up to show off to someone have already been messed up.

“… Ugh it’s frustrating.”

Two. Yoon Seo-hee clenched her fists tightly as she spat the blood in her mouth onto the floor.

She didn’t hide her displeasure and glared at the man with an angry look on her face.

“Because of you… You ruined the whole date today!”
