3. Dragon’s Eye, Human Mind (48)

Mitram’s words were brutally clear.

“Soon there will be all sorts of emergency debt collection pouring onto your sister’s caravan! Will the Percus Territory be safe? No, you won’t. And not only that, but your family and even the estates of your best friends are all affected!”

While drawing, Mitram said, “Pakpak” and tapped my chest as if representing his frustrated feeling. Unable to overcome her rage, her kicks struck the princess several more times.

The princess was cool and just shrugged. Each time Mitram spoke longer, his pale gray eyes filled with despair.

“… … Would you still like to save it? I’ll give you one last chance. Close your eyes right now and go back. Then we’ll make it happen.”

Two more drops of water fell from the corners of the princess’ eyes.

She seemed to think that my chances of saving her were slim.

No one notices even though I sacrificed so much.

It might have been too late to save the princess. Listening to Mitram’s words, she seemed to have made an irreversible choice.

In the meantime, the princess had suffered a lot.

Didn’t all the humans he encountered expressed hostility?

Even that malice wasn’t directed only at me. My precious people were also almost sick and injured, and I had to pour a few handfuls of blood into my hands to prevent it.

Looking back, the only thing the princess and I exchanged was resentment.

A sigh escaped from my mouth. My arm, which was holding the handle of the sword, lost its strength.

The eyes of the female knight who had been observing my appearance became dark. The princess was just shedding tears, as if she wasn’t even expecting it.

“… … That’s right.”

It was a one-word answer at most.

However, Mitram smiled all over his face as if he had waited for just that one word.

With a sigh, I loosened the grip on the handle of the sword. Then, slowly, he began to raise his hands. As if there is no will to resist.

The head of the female knight who was barely raising her head bent.

The princess was breathing faintly, and Mitram’s disgusting smile grew even thicker.

The woman opened her mouth as if tempting.

“I thought you would understand. Now stop… … .”

and the next moment.

Pak, and one of Mitram’s arms was amputated again.

Mitram couldn’t even react.

The woman’s eyes blankly scanned my shoulder blades.

A silver trail was passing through that spot.

I cried, and blood gushed out.

The hatchet, which had been lodged in the ground, returned and severed one of Mitram’s arms.

With that sudden blow, a gnarled question leaked out of Mitram’s teeth.

“… … what?”

I wasn’t stupid enough to miss that gap.

My body, which grabbed the hatchet, kicked off the ground at once and was shot.

I couldn’t even hear the air gap. In the blink of an eye, my hatchet fell on Mitram.

It was a really high-speed rush. Mitram was still unconscious.

However, he was not an easy opponent either.

The woman immediately twisted her body forcibly. The arm rotated at an angle that was impossible due to the human body structure and groped for the product.

The drawn dagger and ax collided.

Dust rose around with a shockwave that thumped. Mitram hesitantly backed away, focusing on blocking the barrage of blows from the hatchet.

But my armament wasn’t just a hatchet.

The moment the remaining hand groped at the waist, another beam of light shot up.

Even without that, it was Mitram who had managed to respond to me. It was impossible to handle another sword path with the loss of an arm.

Along with the blood, one of Mitram’s remaining arms fell off.

Mitram threw himself and rolled on the ground as if he couldn’t help it.

Only then did a distance arise between Mitram, the princess, and the female knight.

One of Mitram’s arms bubbling and seething. The speed of recovery was terrifying.

In that hand, which was shaped like a mass of air bubbles, there was already a string of magical power.

This meant that the advantage of surprise could not be saved.

It was fine. After all, my purpose was to separate Mitram, the princess, and the female knight.

I slipped the hatchet back to my waist.

When Mitram saw me like that, he howled like mad.

“Are you crazy, Ian Percus?! You’re going to save that kid even after being treated like that?!”

At those words, I smiled as if I was dumbfounded.

He would have saved it even if he wasn’t the princess, but Mitram was making a decisive mistake.

“Just because I was treated badly doesn’t mean you aren’t an asshole.”

The scene I saw at the orphanage was still imprinted in my head.

My stomach still simmered when I thought of the faces of the children who cried out in the flesh seeds, begging me to kill them.

He was a man who showed no respect for life. Isn’t it possible to remodel a living creature into a monster and use it as a bomb?

Such a person tried to commit something with the eyes of the princess.

It was obvious that at least it wouldn’t be helpful to the world. The road I had walked was not easy enough to fall into the candy coating.

It was a very natural thing for me, but Mitram’s expression became even more stern.

After grinding her teeth for a moment, she muttered in a low voice.

“… … You must be punished.”

“I happened to be punished a lot by your subordinates from above… So, let’s get you right now.”

No further conversation was necessary.

I kicked the ground once again, and as Mitram’s body spun, the strings of magic stood up.

As if wriggling and hitting me, the blue threads fluctuated. It was a technology I had never seen in my life, so I thought about it for a while.

The answer was only one in the end.

It was enough to create a gap somehow.

Immediately after making my decision, my arm immediately threw the hatchet down.

The speed of the hatchet as it flew through the air was terrifying. Mitram immediately leaned over to avoid the hatchet, but that was not the end.

The blade of the ax trying to turn its trajectory once more and lock itself in.

Mitram leaned back, looking like he was about to spit out a curse. The force exerted on the string of magical power that attacked me at that unreasonable movement weakened.

It was an opportunity.

I cut the string of magical power with my sword as if cutting off a vine.

Nothing stood in the way between Mitram and me. However, as I followed him right up to his nose, the woman’s arm broke at a bizarre angle.

A flashing blade was caught in sight.

It was poison.

There was one thing I realized after the battle with senior Neris. It was a very practical lesson that poison must be avoided unconditionally.

It was even an opponent who fought with all his might. The probability of misjudging the opponent’s state was extremely low, and even so, poison that showed active use was inevitably more dangerous.

If you even brush it, you’ll get f*cked.

Having made that judgment, my knees immediately buckled. My sword slid across Mitram’s thigh.

The knee of the woman whose muscle fibers were severed fell to her knees.

Flowing over the grains of soil, my face met Mitram’s. I smiled slightly.

“… … hi.”

My fist struck Mitram’s face from the side with an instant snap.

Because it was not a blow from a perfect posture, the strength was a little lacking.

But that alone was enough to make the delicate woman’s body collapse.

I tried to climb on top of it, but changed my mind when I saw the stinger in my trembling fingertip.

If I accidentally brushed against it, it would be my loss.

I grabbed the handle of the sword I had left empty for a while.

Then, suddenly, I saw a white hand shooting at me. In return, I returned the blade.

Blood gushed out, and a moan filled with regret flowed from Mitram’s mouth.

“… … Whoa.”

Rather than being in pain, he seemed annoyed that things weren’t going the way he wanted.

Apparently, Mitram didn’t seem to feel any pain. Or were you very insensitive?

Imprinting the information in my head, I jumped up and grabbed the hatchet stuck in the ground.

At the same time, Mitram also sighed, planted both of his legs into the ground, and rose without any reaction.

Like water-soaked cotton that swells and becomes stiff.

The woman smiled as she let her magic string hang down.

“It’s over now.”

As soon as I heard that, my eyes instantly scanned the surroundings.

There were many fallen knights around. But that was all, and the only thing that bothered me was that the string of magical power was strangely spreading toward me.

Is it a bluff, that kind of complacency came to my mind first.

However, as I was about to look at Mitram, I soon had to correct my thoughts.

As I followed the woman’s ecstatic gaze and the string of magical power that became the fuse, I saw the body of a man.

It was swelling and swelling.

And the location was right next to me.

“Oh sh*t… … .”

before spitting out curse words. The world turned white.

It flashed and my eyesight was stained.

After that, the hearing was blocked, and even the sense of touch was vague. The body, already accumulated with injuries, complained of its limits.

Still, I tried to get up.

At that time, I would have woken up if it hadn’t been for the poison needles that pierced both of my shoulders.

Mitram laughed. As if he was certain of victory.

I couldn’t lose, so I managed to raise my head and smile.

I thought to myself.

Crazy bitch, of course I left one corner that I believe in.

My eyes glanced at the potion bag. The potion bag, which was half empty, was already telling me how powerful the medicinal effect was in my body.

Still, it seemed like he was going to die. Twice in the explosion, once in the arm, the wounds were too deep.

In such a situation, it was a situation that allowed another fatal blow.

Suddenly, my mind became hazy. Between such a hazy mind, memories are immersed in pure white waves, even for a moment.

yes, this dream

It is a dream that will never be forgotten.

The world has changed.
