Episode 427
427
A crimson mist saturated the entire space, painting everything in shades of blood.
The surroundings turned red in an instant, and seeing this, Kyou and Kurosawa Ren furrowed their brows.
But unlike those two.
As the blood mist scattered, Yoo Sung-hyun chuckled and spoke.
“Kyou’s situation doesn’t look favorable.”
At Yoo Sung-hyun’s words, Michael and the others fired off questions.
“What? Why is that!?”
At Michael’s question, Yoo Sung-hyun started to speak but glanced at Luna, and Luna blinked in understanding before answering.
“Embris’s techniques are typically skills composed of blood, so when blood scatters in all directions like this, it becomes difficult to predict where Embris will emerge from, and attacks appear from every direction because of it.”
Everyone nodded at Luna’s thoughtful explanation.
Just as she said, Kyou tried to clear the blood mist with lightning, and Kurosawa Ren swung shadow winds to disperse it, but Embris and her party had already vanished into the mist, leaving their emergence point unpredictable.
In that moment.
Blood mist bloomed behind Kyou’s back.
Kyou belatedly sensed it and wrapped lightning around himself, but it was too late.
Embris appeared from behind Kyou with only her upper body visible, creating thorns of blood.
Though called thorns, a massive cone-shaped pillar materialized and pierced toward Kyou, who quickly absorbed the lightning he was about to swing into his body to create a defensive barrier.
Kyou managed to block the blood horn just in time.
However.
A violent surge erupted———!!!
He thought he had blocked Embris’s horn through quick judgment.
But Usagi from the Embris Party burst forth from behind and stabbed a blood sword into Kyou’s back.
“Cough.”
While Kyou’s instantaneous situational judgment and combat sense were unmatched.
This kind of teamwork was something he couldn’t keep pace with Embris on.
Kyou then tried to cut down Usagi, but she too vanished into blood mist, and Embris blocked him in return.
Kyou’s physical abilities wrapped in lightning were formidable beyond measure, but the same held true for Embris, the apostle of the Blood Lord.
As a devout apostle serving the King of Blood and a true vampire transcending even pure-blooded vampires, Embris’s body was transcendent.
When their fists collided in mid-air.
Blood and lightning spread in all directions, creating shockwaves.
A deafening boom erupted————!!!
Lightning crackled and burst————!!!
A violent surge exploded————!!!
Lightning jutted out chaotically and spread everywhere, while blood shattered under the lightning’s assault, creating an even thicker blood mist throughout the space.
Looking at the collision alone, lightning appeared to have the advantage.
But seeing Kyou’s expression, one could tell he was at a disadvantage.
Similarly, blood mist bloomed thickly.
Embris concealed herself once more, and Kim Che-gun and Merlin, who had been shot forward earlier, returned.
Then Menma and Chako, who had been clinging to Kurosawa Ren while he lost nearly half his health being blocked by Embris, withdrew.
-and teamwork falling apart???
-Kurosawa Ren is getting absolutely wrecked;;;;
-This is insane.
-Wait, hand-to-hand combat is that fast???
-Isn’t there a matchup advantage involved?
-Nope nope nope if their teamwork had been better, Kyou Party wouldn’t be getting beaten down like this….
-Yeah;;;
-If Kim Che-gun and Merlin hadn’t rushed out, they could’ve had the advantage and never let Kurosawa Ren get overwhelmed.
-Plus Kyou is wounded, putting them at a disadvantage.
Every word the chat was saying was accurate.
The Kyou Party had suffered massive losses due to a split-second misjudgment.
That’s why Michael was speaking with such excitement.
“Aaah!!! Embris’s party is surging ahead and seizing the first-move advantage!!! Party leader Kyou and party member Kurosawa Ren have sustained considerable injuries!!!”
As Michael delivered his commentary like that.
Luna interjected mid-broadcast.
“That doesn’t necessarily mean Embris’s party has a complete advantage, though.”
“Huh? Is that so?”
Michael asked back, sounding genuinely surprised by Luna’s sudden remark.
Though it was an impromptu event, the commentary was flowing remarkably well.
The Embris Party and Kyou Party continued their clash, and the battle situation itself was tilting in Embris’s favor.
But Michael sensed there must be a reason why Luna would say such a thing, so he listened intently.
The chat viewers weren’t much different either.
-?????????
-Embris Party looks way ahead though???
-They don’t even have a healer????
-So????
-Is there something???
Just as the chat was typing away.
Merlin suddenly drew out a brilliantly gleaming golden spear of light and hurled it at Kyou and Kurosawa Ren.
It could’ve been called a sudden team kill, but the Embris Party rushed out to block the spear—only for Kyou and Kim Che-gun to stop them, and Kyou and Kurosawa Ren caught the radiant golden spear perfectly.
-??????????????
-Team kill??????
-What?????
-Huh??????
-No way??????
Even as the viewers were shocked and typing away.
A recovery motion burst forth.
Everyone couldn’t help but be astonished.
So Merlin had possessed such support-oriented abilities.
While everyone else was reeling in shock, Luna simply nodded knowingly, as if she’d expected this all along.
“It’s not as though Merlin has a clear advantage just because she possesses healing abilities.”
“Ah, I see!!! But then why hasn’t it appeared until now…?”
“Perhaps there simply hasn’t been a need for it until now.”
“Ah….”
Luna answered Michael’s question with unwavering certainty.
And watching her response, the viewers couldn’t help but laugh.
Hahahahaha
-Why don’t you use heels? You have to get hurt to use it!!! lol
I didn’t get hurt, so wearing heels is a bit much lol
Look at how stubborn Luna is being lol
Haha, that’s hilarious.
From Michael’s perspective, he can’t even imagine it, so his reaction is hilarious lol
– Well, it makes sense that you won’t get hurt haha.
-You’re saying that because it’s like a Kyou party. lol
While hunting as a party, not needing healing was logically improbable.
But if it was the Kyou Party, the chat erupted in agreement that it was entirely plausible.
Regardless, the battle between the Kyou Party and the Embris Party raged on fiercely.
The Embris Party, employing a blood-wheel strategy, clashed against the Kyou Party, who each wielded their brilliant instincts to counter the Embris Party’s tactics.
In the immediate exchanges, the Embris Party held the advantage.
However.
“Ah, it seems the tide is gradually shifting!? What’s happening?”
As Michael spoke, he glanced subtly toward Luna.
The chat exploded into laughter once more.
Haha, seriously, whenever he doesn’t know something, he just blames Luna for everything.
Hahahahaha
-Is he really outsourcing the commentary like this????
Haha, that’s hilarious.
With the audience’s positive reactions and Luna’s excellent explanations, it was truly a win-win situation.
To Michael’s question, Luna answered without so much as a frown.
“Although the Kyou Party’s teamwork isn’t perfectly synchronized, individually they possess instincts that surpass the Embris Party’s talent. It seems they’re gradually becoming accustomed to the Embris Party’s tactical patterns.”
Following Luna’s analysis, the Embris Party’s tactics began to shift.
They transitioned from attacking while hidden within the blood mist to attacking through the blood mist itself, no longer concealing their positions.
The Kyou Party, momentarily caught off guard by this new approach, initially struggled to adapt.
But the instant the Embris Party revealed themselves, Kyou’s eyes blazed as lightning scattered across the field.
Simultaneously, Kim Che-gun’s eyes ignited as he charged forward.
Though his job rank was lower, Kim Che-gun was a genius rivaling Kyou, and with both of them advancing, the Embris Party rapidly found themselves on the defensive.
As the Embris Party began to falter, the broadcast itself grew more intense.
“Incredible!!! Kim Che-gun and Kyou are charging in like madmen!!! Their targets are Usagi and Chako!!!”
“Embris made a poor judgment call.”
At Luna’s sharp assessment, Michael found himself nodding in agreement without realizing it.
-Is Haelhaem just nodding along pretending to understand?
It’s the same as us during class time lol
-You gotta at least pretend to know to get paid!!!!
-Shh, we’re in the middle of professional conduct.
Whether the viewers mocked or not, they agreed with Luna’s words.
Had the Kyou Party adapted and responded in kind, things might have turned out differently.
Revealing themselves outright was a blunder.
Embris tried to stop Kyou belatedly, but Merlin and Kurosawa Ren engaged Embris instead, and even Embris couldn’t separate the two of them in a single move.
Because of this, Menma joined in an attempt to stop Usagi and Chako from suffering at the hands of Kyou and Kim Che-gun, but the three of them couldn’t match Kyou and Kim Che-gun.
The situation reversed in an instant—Chako vanished first, transforming into blood, followed by Menma.
Usagi struggled to endure the onslaught, but her body scattered into blood from the descending lightning, and Embris defeated Kurosawa Ren and Merlin as well.
But the remaining members were Kim Che-gun and Kyou.
Both sustained considerable injuries fighting three opponents, yet Embris frowned upon seeing them.
Embris’s condition was far better than theirs.
Crackle—crackle—crackle———!!!
The descending lightning and
Shhh——————crack!!!
the exquisite swordsmanship infused with profound mystery—there was no way to withstand them.
Ultimately, Embris, struck by both the lightning and the blade, transformed into blood and collapsed like the other party members.
At that moment, Kim Che-gun also fell from Embris’s final strike, and Kyou, with only a sliver of health remaining, managed to defeat Embris.
“The Kyou Party is victorious!!!!”
And so, the Kyou Party claimed victory.
