048. Hogu

“Whoa.”

Yulia Karssen caught her breath.

When I raise my eyes, I see my opponent.

“Are you ready?”

An existence that is imbued with the most powerful madness and murderousness, barely restraining its instinct to fight against a perfect opponent.

strong. Excluding the god and the warden, I wonder if it’s the next level.

Victory cannot be easily guaranteed, but she must not be defeated. can’t lose

It’s not because you’re on vacation. She had only recently entered purgatory and, after all, it was more like voluntary admission.

He even had a history of going to the Daydram with the warden. Gwihyu wasn’t a big advantage for her.

What Julia valued was victory itself.

god. The final goal of her, of Albenius, of the Mother Tree of Daedram, and of numerous other helpers.

You must fight God. We must defy God.

Therefore, it cannot be destroyed by just one prisoner. Even if that prisoner is one of the strongest among the warriors. Because God is stronger.

Yulia slowly drew out her sword. The beloved sword, which was confiscated when entering Purgatory, resonates as if it is glad to see the owner’s touch after a long time.

“It’s done.”

I catch my breath and extend my sword as it is. Jjwoong, it collides with the claws of the galloping beast.

Sends a crushing shock to the ground. I twist my body to avoid another nail and draw a sword.

However, he lacks the foresight to slash the skin of a silver wolf with an aura. Yulia forged her aura even sharper.

Bang bang!

What followed was a battle of strength and skill. Tarkan, who uses the advantage of overwhelming power to bombard, and Yulia, who deflects it and spills it, stabs her sword at the gap.

“You are the third to fully follow my speed!”

Tarkan’s excited shouts squeezed through the roar. But Julia did not agree.

“Who follows whom?”

At least speed was her main weapon. No matter how special a beast is, her pride will not allow her to be left behind.

Of course, the warden and the monster are different.

Julia let out an excited breath. I put my will into mana. The wind started blowing.

Among the warriors who have received the power of the hero, special ones awaken the power.

Like Kang Min-sik’s poison, like Sienna’s magic manipulation.

Yulia awakened the power of the wind. The power to control the wind freely.

There was no need to use it against what was called the Executioner, but it was not Tarkan Tolis. I’ve heard that he’s a warrior who hasn’t awakened his authority, but he’s a monster whose physical strength alone is enough.

Yulia extended her sword. The wind rose. It became a storm.

Kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa, attacking Tarkan as it is.

Julia moves. Ride on the wind and go faster.

The wind spirits gave her strength. The spirit’s protection dwelled on the sword. The wind mixed with the aura became sharper.

Quaang collides with Tarkan. I endured it, but Yulia’s sword attack did not end with one shot.

the problem is.

“It’s like a fly.”

Tarkan Tolis was reacting to all of that.

He doesn’t have the speed to keep up with Yulia.

However, there are ignorant strength and hard body that cannot be obtained even if Yulia wakes up from death. There is an instinctive sense of the beast.

It bounces what needs to be bounced off and what it needs to receive with an aura and body, tearing off the grain of the wind.

Disrupt and destroy the flow. Forcibly break through and advance.

“A warrior! Stand tall!”

he roars The wind vibrates and weakens after the lion’s near power.

“found.”

Both legs expand rapidly. Kwaang shatters the earth, kicks it, and fires in a straight line.

“Suck!”

Yulia hurriedly steps on the wind and twists her body. Another nail hangs over the edge of a fingernail that barely passes by.

Kaga-gak, the sword manages to deflect the fingernail. Her body staggers from the shock, but the wind supports Yulia.

And the spirit’s wind strikes the defenseless Tarkan from all sides.

Kwak Kwa Kwak!

A huge explosion swept the entire arena. This time it worked.

A scarred Tarkan rushed out, tearing through the wind. Even so, the ferocity and jealousy did not die at all, and Yulia did not feel complacent that she could end it with this single shot.

The sword he had been waiting for went out to meet him.

Kwadeuk, the sharp sword attack was received as if Tarkan snatched it with his teeth.

“Is it just this much? Compared to the warden, you are like a child.”

“If you talk like that, it’s not very cool.”

And.

“It’s the same that you fall far behind the warden.”

The aura on the sword exploded. Tarkan’s head shook greatly. The teeth missed the sword and the sword danced.

However, you can’t beat the warden with just this much.

Of course, even gods can’t get over it.

That’s why Yulia squeezed more mana.

Increases speed, makes the wind stronger, and sharpens sword strikes.

dodge and bump block and hit dodge and collide

Standing in front of the waves of intense power, holding on again and raising the sword.

And in the end you get the victory.

“…I proved it.”

Tarkan falls to her sword. He stood up again and again, making her suffer like a zombie, but this time it was different. Although he had willpower, his scarred body came to a limit.

It was a tough opponent. My aura is almost depleted, and my whole body throbs.

Still, she won. He was still far behind Kim Woo-jin and the gods, but at least he proved himself to be at the top level among the warriors right below him.

“Now take one step.”

If he beats Siena Orm, he should be able to boast that he is the strongest, at least in this area.

But there was no further opportunity for her.

“… Heh, I don’t have any strength at all.”

Julia Karsen, who poured all her energy into the fight against Tarkan Tolis.

“The leave is mine.”

“Wait a minute, wait a minute! No break time? Shouldn’t there be at least a minimum rest period for fairness and player protection?”

“Do you ask about that in prison?”

“No, wait! Aww! Bone, bone hit!”

“I shot you to be hit.”

“I am a high elf!”

“Okay, I’ll treat you when it’s over.”

In the final against Siena that followed, he suffered a crushing defeat like a lie.

* * *

“…Yulia Karsen. It was a monster beyond imagination.”

Most of the prisoners already knew it, though not all of them openly proved it or said it.

That the strongest of the prisoners is Tarkan Tolis. He was the aristocrat of the beast tribe, the wolf of the moon, and he lived in struggle.

His power was different from that of other beastmen, and neither Siena nor Dercain could easily surpass it.

But Julia won.

Although he lost to Sienna in vain in the next match, it was because he poured all his energy into it, not because she was weak.

Daejin Teeth, so to speak. If Tarkan’s opponent had been Siena instead of Yulia, Tarkan would have gone up.

However, Yulia defeated that Tarkan. It wasn’t overpowering, but that alone gave you an idea of how strong she was.

And.

“…the replacement director?”

Even if such prisoners attacked at once, they could not get a sense of where the limits of the warden were.

“…is God a god?”

And what will be the majesty of the gods who go out in a low posture without even being able to do it right away.

Derkain muttered anxiously.

By the time the prisoners in the arena were deciding on a winner, the escapees were struggling to get out of purgatory.

“If you use the beast’s sense of smell to chase it, you’ll have no choice but to catch up eventually. So why don’t we spread out and buy at least some of them?”

Leaving Kang Min-shik behind, the warriors agreed with Carlo’s opinion.

And the nine warriors split into nine branches and went their separate ways.

“Heo-eok, heo-eok…!”

Carlo ran. ran and ran

After becoming a hero, it was to the point where I wondered if I had ever been so short of breath just by running.

But there was no such thing as leisure.

‘If it’s late, the warden will come. I can’t stop that monster!’

I felt the power of the warden keenly the moment I entered this place. If you collide, you lose. You have to get out before that.

‘Please, other guys first!’

Anyway, other than the one who received the key from God, there is no possibility that other guys can escape from this place. So wouldn’t it be right to serve as bait for him?

‘This place itself is a dimension.’

Fools who don’t know anything about purgatory will eventually be blocked by the dimensional barrier.

Only he can complete God’s mission and receive the reward.

‘I’m glad I have helpers…!’

A restraint orb that completely controls mana, a treasure chest of overwhelming power. The feeling of despair when I first came here is beyond words.

Although he said that God created the situation, the shock of the warden was just as great.

However, with Kang Min-sik’s help, he got out of prison easier than expected. It was so easy and a little strange, but he was the helper God spoke of.

I don’t doubt God. So, as Kang Min-sik said, it must be because he has been waiting for this day for a long time.

So Kang Min-shik is God’s arrangement. There’s no way God’s arrangement went wrong, so I could get out of here just by running.

‘Damn it, I thought I could go out with it in an arena or a tournament…!’

The warriors of Purgatory were literally monsters. It’s hard to believe that they’re the same warrior.

“You bastards rot for the rest of your life here! I’m going!”

However, in the end, it is Carlo who receives God’s task and goes out.

Convicts, idiots who obey the warden’s words will live here for the rest of their lives.

“Unfortunately, you are included in what rots here.”

It was then that the voice suddenly reached my ears. A calm voice without any elevation.

“…”

Carlo shrieked like a broken robot and stopped. I tried desperately to spread the feeling, but I couldn’t feel anything.

‘I must have heard wrong?’

You must have heard wrong. It should be.

I slowly turned my head. there was a warden They weren’t wrong.

“···hahahaha.”

There were nine prisoners scattered in all directions. Why?

“Why is it me!”

“Don’t worry. All the other escapees will be caught and returned to their places. It’s just a difference in order.”

“I know you want to hear that!”

The aura that Carlo had been secretly collecting was released at once. Kwa-kwa-kwa, the energy that the warrior who saved the world made up his mind and vomited was enormous. A storm of aura hit Kim Woo-jin.

Carlo used the recoil to widen the distance as much as possible.

‘early!’

Fighting is a must so run away Fortunately, the barrier is not far…

At that moment, a huge shadow covered Carlo.

“… Cerberus?”

It was a three-headed beast. A monster that even a warrior cannot easily deal with.

Cerberus’ three mouths opened. Black flames vomited.

“Kuh…!”

Carlo hurriedly wrapped himself in an aura. But the expected opening did not come.

It was Kim Woo-jin. Kim Woo-jin, who got in between Cerberus and Carlo, lightly extinguished the flames.

A rough hand gripped his neck.

Quaang, he slammed it into the ground. Carlo vomited blood in shock.

“Now, tell me.”

Kim Woo-jin’s eyes cooled down.

“What is God’s purpose for sending you here?”

“I-I’m just…!”

“Yeah, it’s not fun to say from the beginning. do not worry. I have inexhaustible means to make you open your mouth.”

Mana penetrated the lightly patted shoulder. Carlo’s limbs twisted.

“Quaaagh!”

“Aura Hall doesn’t have much of a problem with living. right?”

“Hey, wait a minute…!”

“Are you in the mood to talk?”

“Eh, even if I wanted to talk, I couldn’t! Poetry, God forbid…!”

“do not worry.”

Mana penetrated Carlo’s body once again. However, it was different from before. It invaded his heart and brain and tore off the god-engraved gold.

Realizing what was going on inside his body, Carlo was horrified.

“Mi, crazy! Breaking God’s prohibition?”

“Because I haven’t been playing for 20 years either.”

Naturally, Carlo didn’t understand what that meant. It wasn’t even important.

“Blow it.”

Gods who have already suffered one failure simply cannot prepare the same plan.

Kim Woo-jin was sure, and that certainty was the correct answer.

“God said you can escape Purgatory and go to the dimension called ‘K-Room’!”

“K Room? K-room has nothing to do with you?”

It’s not that his hometown is K-Room, nor that he was active as a warrior in K-Room.

No, in the first place, K-Room was…

“God has carved a seal that will lead you to K-Rum. There will be an assistant in the prison, so he told me to get help and escape!”

“aid?”

“I’m talking about Kang Min-shik. I got this far with his help!”

“What next?”

“After that, God himself protects me…”

God’s direct protection.

“Look at these bastards.”

Knowing what the K-Room dimension looked like, I could roughly guess why they wanted to send Carlo to the K-Room.

“Who do you see as a dog hogu?”

Suddenly, Kim Woo-jin’s eyes turned red.
