not different

The knights of the Ramott family stood at an angle in front of Lamba.

Captain Hortson, the person in charge, bowed his head to Lamba in front of the knights.

“Give me instructions!”

“Protect people with discretion and without overdoing it.”

“I will follow your orders!”

“Captain, please stay.”

“yes.”

When Lamba waved his hand, everyone except Hortson left the spot.

“Chief.”

“Tell me.”

“Protect the people on that bus.”

“I will take orders!”

After Hortson disappeared, Ramba reached out to the ground and manifested his SS-class trait, ‘Phantom Summoner’.

Hwaaa-

A winged and horned horse, a unicorn, rose from the ground.

Looking at the cat lying on the back of the unicorn, looking awake, Lamba grinned.

“Wake up, Pandrick. It’s time to wake up.”

[Hmmmm, didn’t sleep, Lamba.]

Fendrick of the 7th illusion looked up at the sky and frowned. Of course, a cat with a frowning face. In Lamba’s eyes, it was just cute.

[Little things have appeared again. Hehe, how did the planet get eaten?]

As Lamba climbed onto the unicorn’s back, Pandrick took out his staff from the air and touched Lamba’s body.

Then, all visible parts of Lamba from head to toe were covered with black cloth.

“Thank you, shall we begin?”

[Gossana.]

A unicorn flew up.

On the day Martin disappeared, there were quite a few people who saw the Transcendent Ratun who came to see Pedro, and many heard his story.

Thanks to that, the story of Martin spread rapidly in both worlds.

The Earthlings, who were able to live on Earth again through Martin’s sacrifice, called that day the Day of Salvation.

The Loden people who lost their hero and saint, Martin, called that day the day of loss.

With the help of a savior named Martin, the earth regained stability, and the great exodus came to an abrupt end as the black fog disappeared.

Since then, the atmosphere between the two worlds has become very mixed.

Because you never know when it will happen again.

Before long, apocalypseists claiming that the world will come to an end are rampant.

As if to support their claim, the frequency of gates created on Earth has exceeded three times compared to before the Day of Salvation. It has become a bit stronger in terms of rank and scale.

However, in the past five years, nothing has been as powerful as the gate that broke out today in Seoul.

“At least grade B! I can even see an A-rank monster!”

“All are flying types!”

“More than a thousand have been confirmed!”

Flying monsters are very difficult to deal with.

At least, if the monster only uses physical attacks, you will be able to block it somehow. However, the monsters that appeared this time were frightening ones that were flying and also attacked from a distance.

The acidic solution the monsters spouted from their mouths melted even the metal.

“Ask for support!”

The Korean Hunter Association has been busy.

* * *

A monster floating in the sky spits acid at a bus near the bus stop.

“Get down!”

The moment everyone fell on their knees at the words of someone in the bus, boom! A roar rang out and the bus shook.

“… … .”

When nothing happened afterwards, Minjung, who was trembling in the back seat, carefully raised his head and looked out the window.

The asphalt in a place less than 5m away from the bus is melting, and a monster has fallen and is crawling on the ground in the distance.

Someone must have dropped the monster to the ground.

“Hee!”

The people who looked at the monster quickly lowered their bodies.

‘Couldn’t you have seen me?’

It seemed like our eyes met for a moment, but it must be because of my mood.

It must be.

By the way.

Kihehehehe-

A deafening scream is heard.

Then a thumping sound is heard.

It looks like it’s walking without flying, perhaps because its wings are injured, so it’s even more terrifying.

The people quickly shouted.

“A monster is coming! I have to get off the bus!”

I was still hearing all the thumps.

The bus driver quickly opened the door, and the passengers, accustomed to being raided at the gate, got off the bus in an orderly manner even in their urgency.

Minjung, who got off the bus with other people, looked back and trembled.

‘Big… … .’

The giant torso of the monster reminded me of a dinosaur.

Kihehehehe-

another freak.

The people clenched their ears and slumped in their seats.

The approaching monster stopped and opened its mouth.

It looks like something will come out of there anytime soon.

‘no… … .’

But that was just then.

Someone fell from the sky.

shock-

A frighteningly beautiful silvery flash.

The monster was decapitated by the flash with its mouth open, and died.

Did the 10th Hunter come?

When everyone thought so,

thud!

The man who killed the monster with a single knife and landed on the ground shouted as he approached the bus.

“Is everyone okay!”

the people shouted

“It’s fine here! Please save the others!”

The man’s eyes turned to the people.

Minjung looked at the man’s face and averted his eyes with a sad expression.

‘I must be crazy!’

The man was laughing.

It disappeared quickly, but the man clearly had a smile on his lips.

‘Is this situation good?’

It is said that no one was injured among the people on the bus, but if you turn your eyes right now, you can see countless people dying.

Killed by a monster, crushed by a collapsing building.

But how can I laugh?

Of course, it could be that he smiled on purpose to calm people down. However, the man’s smile seemed far from that to the public.

It was definitely the smile you put on when you’re satisfied with something.

Thank you for saving me, but I didn’t want to get involved with someone like that.

‘It might be a perverted psycho… … .’

Of course, this was a popular misunderstanding.

The man, Lamba’s escort knight, Hortson, was not a perverted psycho as the people thought.

It was just that he knew that Minjung was Ramba’s friend, and he had that kind of expression for a while because he liked Minjung’s composure in coping calmly even in an emergency.

However, the people did not know such a fact, so they hesitated while noticing, and the moment Hortson raised his head to the sky, he shouted ‘run away!’ and ran away in the direction of the shelter.

And that, in the current situation, was a very bad move.

This is because five of the monsters that were flying in the sky turned around when they saw people running.

“this!”

Watching the monsters open their mouths at the same time, Hortson frowned. Then, he ran ahead of the people who were running and blocked them, shouting.

“Stay closer!”

While people hesitated, Hortson clicked his tongue and jumped straight up.

He swung his sword at five streams of acid falling to the ground.

Sha Sha Sha Sha-

In an instant, dozens of sword spirits came out from the drawn sword, forming a small film.

bang!!

An explosion occurs and the acidic solution is scattered and falls like rain.

“Ugh!”

“Kyaaagh!”

People put themselves in the middle and screamed as the acid melted the ground as it fell.

Returning to the ground, Hortson gave a small but powerful shout with magic in his voice.

“quiet!”

As the screams died down and the eyes gathered, Hortson opened his mouth.

“You must not attract the attention of monsters.”

The five monsters disappeared somewhere after spewing out acidic solutions, probably because people thought they were dead, but there are still many monsters in the sky.

bang! bang!

A missile flew from somewhere and hit the monster.

But the monster didn’t die. Rather, he was more excited and ran amok.

‘I can’t do it.’

Hortson approached the people, thinking that he had to save these people.

“Look.”

“Hee! Yes Yes?”

“Where is the shelter? Is it far from here?”

“Oh no! it’s close.”

“Then you guide me.”

“yes!”

The people led the way, and the people who grew to about a hundred people followed him.

As we moved, people continued to stick together.

Whether it was an ordinary person, a policeman, or a soldier, everyone was equal in front of those monsters, unless they were hunters or superhumans.

They moved quickly, yet slowly.

When the number of people moving together exceeded two hundred, Hortson took a whistle from his pocket and blew it.

A silent whistle that spreads waves of magical power.

“Chief!”

Soon the knights of the Lamot family swarmed around Hortson.

Hortson directed.

“We will get people safely to shelters. Escort by widening the gap. Remember that the goal is not to destroy the monster.”

“yes!”

As the knights dispersed, Hortson spoke to the people.

“I think I can run a little faster from now on.”

“yes!”

But they had to stop after a while.

“Me, that one?”

The people who stood still pointed their fingers at the sky.

There was a fireball there.

It looks like a small sun rising up.

It could be the ability of a superhuman or hunter. For example, yeomma.

But no one who saw it thought so.

Anyone on Earth would know what that huge fireball with its wings spread out was.

“Firebird… … .”

The last remaining 4 catastrophes on Earth.

The phoenix, which had been hidden until now, has made an appearance in Seoul.

* * *

Summons a flock of owls from Hokulonian to stop the monsters, and summons a flock of locusts from Vitaros to attack the monsters.

Ramba, exhausted, commanded the summoned beasts and roamed the sky without a break.

[Aren’t you overdoing it?]

At Pendrick’s concern, Ramba smiled bitterly.

“You have to save people. Now is the time to overdo it.”

[As expected, he is my contractor. Your heart is really good. What a difference!]

Fendrick held out his wand, and a light came from the tip, burning the body of the monster he was pointing at.

[But it won’t be like this forever. Isn’t the water pouring down endlessly?]

“Reinforcements will arrive soon.”

[I don’t think it can be solved with a tolerable amount of reinforcements, so can’t we just go back? Whoopcha! What a difference!]

Lamba burst into laughter at the sight of Pandrick, who said he wanted to go back, but in fact killed the monster harder than anyone else.

‘Certainly, a cat is a cat, too.’

It was then.

Pandrick put down his wand and said seriously.

[Stop.]

When Lamba stopped the unicorn, Pandrick pointed somewhere with his hand.

[Something big is coming.]

As soon as he finished speaking, it appeared.

“… Fire bird?”

why is that here?

When Lamba was bewildered, Pandrick spoke.

[We can’t deal with that. I have to go back. I have to go and get Pedro and Raymond.]

“… If my father and the Sword Saint come, can I deal with that?”

[Sure. Those two were strong before, but they’ve gotten stronger lately. So let’s go back.]

“What about the people here?”

[…] Disasters are like that.]

Lamba looked down at the ground for a moment, more precisely at the people, then grinned.

“My older brother did. Under no circumstances should I give up on my people.”

[Martin and you are different, Contractor.]

“No, not different.”

Realizing that Lamba would never run away, Cedric sighed. However, it soon bristled its claws.

[Yes, Hasena!]

“Kendrick… … .”

[A guy who wouldn’t even be able to take a bite! If you leave something like that and run away, you will be dishonoring the name of our family.]

Kendrick pointed at the firebird with his staff.

[If you’re not going to run away, you’d better move first.]

“Yes, please.”

Ramba whispered in the unicorn’s ear.

“Carpenia, let’s go. Quietly and quickly.”

The unicorn nodded and flew in the sky.

As they got closer, the firebird turned its gaze to Lamba.

Climbing on top of Lamba’s head, Kendrick pointed his staff at the firebird and shouted.

[Go back to your world!]

Frost began to fall on the firebird’s body.

same time.

The space much higher than the place where the phoenix was located was breaking apart little by little.

“Wow! What did you make all of this for?”

A small sound leaked from the gap in the broken space.

It was Martin’s voice.
