My Gene System

Chapter 20 - Mythical Beast

In a location crowded with Arzotoc village guards. For good reason, there was a beautiful woman and man having a serious conversation.

Riku believed that if he directed report the idea he knew about the mystical beast, he would be believed. Cuifer, the first tactician, and Albert, the first commander, were certain he would not believe him. Why? Who in their right mind would believe an outsider who has just appeared in this vast village?

Yes. Riku still harbored a grudge against the guards who had brutally tortured him, and he couldn't help but wish to kill them. Nonetheless, he was not putting all the guards because he suspected some of them were like Pan.

To lessen the destruction and the deaths of the guards in this battle. He directed his attention to Arisu, hoping that by using her, she would believe him and carry out his plan.

"Lady Arisu, I believe you're the one who can minimize the casualties here," Riku said, noting that Arisu was an expert at wielding a sword.

Arisu was confident in her fighting abilities, trusting she could defeat the Garaga monster on her own. But first, she needed to know how long the monster's restricted range was. Because if she entered without information, the monster's sharp bloody claws could sever her in half.

She moved closer to him, eager to hear the suggestion of the man dressed in multiple outfits.

"You said earlier that I can defeat the monster with just one stroke of this sword, and you know that no one in the history of Arzotoc village has ever done that," she added in a dazed tone. "It's not that I don't believe you; I just think that's impossible."

He was expecting this scene as lady Arisu was also a wise woman. Riku, on the other hand, knew how to persuade her with his lovely words. "Believe me, lady Arisu, with your strength and speed, we can pull this off."

Arisu became aware that this man was speaking the truth. 'Riku's aura turned white, he's not lying,' she said to herself as she began to listen to his on-the-spot plan. "Tell me what your plan is, and if I notice it's impossible, we're not going to do it."

With a confident smile, he nodded his head at her. "Yes!" he exclaimed, pointing his index finger at the violet crystal on the monster's chest. "Do you know what that is?"

Arisu gave him a quick nod. "Of course, all the villagers were aware of it, and it is the vessel in which the monster gathered the mana within their body."

At this point, he showed himself that he wasn't believing in Arisu's words by just slowly shaking his head. "Yea, it's the truth that there's a mana flow inside of it but it's actually called monster's core. Or easy to say the monster's heart." He explained that easily understood by Asarki.

At this point, he demonstrated his disbelief in Arisu's words by slowly shaking his head. "Yeah, it's true that there's a mana flow inside of it, but it's actually called the monster's core, or, to put it another way, the monster's heart," he explained clearly to her.

Arisu raised her brows slightly because no one had thought to attack the crystal they had spotted from the monsters. Since some of the cores were hidden within their bodies, the monsters will not kill directly. Furthermore, they believed that if they attacked the crystal, it would cause an explosion that would destroy the entire village in an instant.

In their minds, the crystal was the magical power's vessel. To put it another way, what would happen if you popped a balloon filled with water? Obviously, it will explode, they reasoned.

"Eh? Why would I do that?! I don't want to blow up the entire place and kill the villagers here," Arisu said seriously, thinking about Riku's suggestion.

"Blow? What are you saying, lady Arisu? There will be no explosion after you destroy the monster's core; it's just the sound of crystal scattered," he explained and added. "It's pointless to kill that monster by slashing it with your sword and firing with your cannons as this Garaga monster has self-regeneration."

He didn't intend to say that monster called in his world as a mythical beast. In order to not give some confusing thoughts to this woman.

"self-regeneration? Why do you know so much about this type of monster, Riku?" she asked, her face solemn.

Swish! Swish! Swish!

The blood of the guards splashed all over the place as the mythical beast cut off their heads, arms, and legs, filling the space with the groans of guards in excruciating pain.

"It's not the right time to ask about this, lady Arisu. The dying guards are increasing, and we need to stop that monster right away. On top of that, we need to seal the big hole created by the monster because there's a good chance the other monster will use it to enter the village." His nonchalant expression changed to worried as the guards who died right now increased to 40.

Arisu's heart was pierced by something every time she saw guards perish in front of her. She asked, without wasting any time, about their exact plan to kill the monster, and Riku answered her without hesitation.

They intended to use Riku to divert the monster's attention to a different side. And if he drew the monster's attention, that's when Arisu will swing her thin sword and destroy the monster's core. You might think it was an easy plan, but the truth was that it was difficult since Riku could die and never return to the real world if he made a single mistake.

"Are you stupid, Riku? Your current speed and strength aren't enough to last," Arisu said, catching Cuifer's attention, thinking that man was messing with their jobs here.

"Hey! Get back to your place! You're ruining the situation here-" Cuifer came to a halt as Arisu approached him.

"Stop it, Cuifer, he's not messing with us, he's just suggesting something," Arisu said, explaining Riku's exact plan to Cuifer.

Cuifer smiled maliciously; in his mind, he didn't need to devise a concrete plan to kill the outsider as he did it himself. "Well, that's not my plan, so don't blame lady Arisu if something bad happens to him."

Riku knew he was plotting something, as one would expect from this man. Cuifer was always opposed to King Luke and Lady Arisu's choice. Is he that easily persuaded to change his mind?

'Don't fool yourself, bastard; you know I can die here, which is why you're accepting it. However, don't cry later, old man, if I get all the credit.' He said to himself, mockingly.

The situation had been resolved, and first-commander Albert and first-tactician Cuifer had agreed to his plan. So all the guards gathered, and the location was shifted back to allow Riku and Lady Arisu to battle the monster.

"Stick to the plan, lady Arisu, and I'll believe you," Riku said as he dashed at the seven-foot-tall monster with a wide body.

Swoosh!

Arisu nodded at him, and for no apparent reason, she felt at ease and success in this plan. So she smiled back and moved her flashy movements towards the monster's blind spot

Riku has never fought a monster like this in his world as he only recently awakened his gene. After that, he traveled to a new world where he encountered things he didn't know existed.

With the knowledge he had gained from the earth, he was confident that he and Lady Arisu would win the fight.

The mythical beast's limited range was seven meters. So, as he ran, he calculated his gap within the monster to avoid receiving malignant damage.

"Hey! Come over here! I'm your opponent!" He mocked the monster with gestures, and the Garaga monster was sucked into it. "It's effective..."

Meanwhile, Riku had already been pursued by the monster for three minutes. Cuifer was taken aback because he had expected that man to last only thirty seconds.

"What are you doing, monster?" He covered his mouth as he realized the first commander was standing next to him.

"What did you say, majesty Cuifer?" Albert asked, looking at the man enjoying chasing the aggressive monster. 'He's unbelievable, how he could still smile?'

"Nothing, Albert, just prepare our cannon." He ordered him.

But it appeared that the cannon was not in this situation, knowing that the monster would stand in less than ten seconds.

And then, in the distance of nine meters, Riku spun around, fearlessly facing the monster. Arisu was preparing herself at the same time, knowing that this was the time Riku had mentioned to her.

'If you perish here! 'I'll go to heaven and kill you one more time.' She clenched her sword and moved when she noticed Riku dash right in front of the monster.

Swoosh!

He leaped into the air as he realized the monster's claw was aimed at him. So he forced himself to change his body's trajectory in order to avoid the attack. After that, he landed safely and began climbing, first with the monster's arm up to its head until... The mythical beast would like to catch him with its claws, unaware that its core was wide open.

Swish!

Boom!

Another explosion occurred.

Eh?

The heck?!
