Chapter 25. The Great
-Kale!
I heard Raon’s voice echoing in my mind.
It hurt.
Since arriving in this world, I had never experienced pain like this before.
“Ugh.”
Black blood flowed relentlessly from my mouth, running down my hand and staining the City Wall floor. I couldn’t straighten my waist and continued to cough up blood.
“Cough.”
“K-Kale, sir!”
Hands urgently grasped my hunched body. It was Choi Han. Seeing me about to collapse onto the City Wall floor at any moment, Choi Han instinctively tried to help me up.
Someone intervened to stop his actions.
“Stop.”
“…What?”
Ron’s and Choi Han’s gazes collided. Ron spoke with a cold expression. But the corners of his lips were pale.
“The blood could flow backward. What if it enters the airway?”
Choi Han’s movement to help me up lost its strength. Then, he could see the blood-stained hand gripping his arm. It was me.
With a pained expression, I looked at Choi Han and Ron.
“Go, hurry and go- ugh.”
This damned blood!
Blood kept flowing from my mouth. I couldn’t speak properly.
‘Why does blood keep coming out like this?’
After unleashing the lightning strike, my waist suddenly bent forward from the pain. But after about a minute, my heart’s vitality began healing, and it didn’t hurt as much.
However, there were two problems. Blood kept flowing from my mouth, and.
‘I’m starving.’
Having exhausted all my strength, hunger gnawed at me relentlessly. The sharp, searing pain of prolonged fasting—that burning sensation in my stomach, that ache in my chest—had returned. It resembled the hunger I’d felt as a child, before I’d grown accustomed to starvation.
“Choi Han… go quickly!”
“Why do you keep saying such things! You must take care of your body first!”
Go get some bread. I’m really starving.
I wanted to say it, but instead I mumbled the words, intimidated by Choi Han’s bloodshot, murderous gaze.
“Take care of the tamer. Go quickly.”
At that moment, a scream reached Cale’s ears.
“Aaaah! My, my skin!”
The gruff voice of an old man. It had to be the Tamer. It seemed like he had survived. Cale, who was unable to lift his waist and was vomiting blood, could not see the current scene.
I could only hear the screams and smell the acrid stench of burning.
But Choi Han could see the sight.
The place where the red light struck. The ground turned black and a huge fire was burning above it. There was no life visible above the fire.
The lightning’s range was catastrophic. Those from the Secret Organization who had been running toward the barrier—those at the rear—vanished without a trace.
“My, my baby’s skin! Argh!”
Choi Han’s eyes cooled down. The tamer and the magician appeared outside the range of the thunderbolt, having narrowly succeeded in catching Blink.
But the Spear Master’s brown hair had been completely burned away by the lightning’s effects, and his spear was gone. His right hand bore severe burns as well.
“Kill them all! It hurts, it hurts!”
But it wasn’t just Tamer. Tamer had a deep wound on his arm and burns on his face, possibly due to Blink’s mistake.
Choi Han recalled what Kale had said before heading to the Elf Village.
‘I gained an ancient power. So I’m going to try it. So, let’s all leave later.’
It was an incredible power. Even he couldn’t create this scene all at once. That’s why Choi Han understood the sight of the elves standing blankly below the barrier.
“What are you doing? Why don’t you go quickly?”
Choi Han turned his head when a hand grabbed his arm. Even though he couldn’t stop the bleeding, he could still see Cale’s cold eyes. Those eyes were rational.
Choi Han turned his head toward the hand gripping his arm. Even as blood continued to pour from Kale’s lips, his eyes remained ice-cold and rational.
“Go quickly. Are you going to leave the animals there?”
Cale held Choi Han’s arm so tightly that the veins on the back of his hand bulged, but he had no strength at all. That made Choi Han’s face stiffer.
‘Like during the capital terrorist attack.’
He was someone who was trying to save other lives by absolutely hurting himself. He was willing to be there even when it was bloody and difficult. While suffering and struggling like this.
He was someone who would always wound himself to save another life. He insisted on sharing in the bloodshed, the suffering, the burden. Even as he bled and struggled like this.
But Choi Han understood Cale’s feelings. Cale’s calm voice came into his ear.
“It’s just you.”
Cale could see Choi Han letting go of his hand on her shoulder.
Kale watched as Choi Han removed his hand from his shoulder.
It truly was only Choi Han.
Raon’s voice rang in Cale’s head.
-this person! Blood, blood!
What are you saying?
What was he saying?
“I will come back.”
Choi Han didn’t even hear Cale’s answer and immediately disappeared before his eyes.
Without waiting for my response, Choi Han vanished before my eyes.
Cale wiped away the blood that had decreased from before and strengthened his legs. He gave instructions quickly.
“Ron, dead mana.”
“Ron, dead mana.”
Left arm given by necromancer Mary. Ron’s left arm was not alive, so dead mana recovery was possible. Kayle was planning to sell that precious dead mana to the dark elves and the crown prince.
‘You can’t give up money.’
Kale hated free labor.
Kale despised unpaid labor with every fiber of his being.
“go.”
The indifferent voice might have made him stop, but Lark immediately followed Choi Han and jumped down the barrier. And On and Hong approached Cale.
Nyaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa.
Meowwww.
The two tried to rub their bodies against Cale’s legs. Cale avoided it. What are you going to do when that soot gets erased?
Both cats tried to rub their bodies against Kale’s legs. Kale dodged them. What if the blood stains didn’t wash out?
Cale stood up as he saw the scene. Only then did I see underneath the barrier.
‘hmm?’
Cale paused. For a moment, my vision became blurred. Perhaps because he had exhausted all his energy or because the sight before his eyes was shocking, Kale stumbled for a moment.
‘Was the destructive fire this strong?’
A fire could be seen burning on the black ground.
Flames blazed across the blackened earth.
Cale thought even as he stumbled.
‘Is it good?’
It was a power worth 2 billion won. However, contrary to feeling satisfied, Cale had exhausted all his energy and his body had no strength.
It was power worth two billion. Yet despite the satisfaction he felt, Kale’s body was utterly drained of all strength. He lacked the power to catch himself from falling backward.
“Confucius!”
“Young master!”
Fendrick and Vikros extended their hands towards him. However, Cale did not fall backwards even though they did not touch him.
-No, Kale! You are not allowed to fall!
Cale could feel his head supporting his back. It was Raon, the black dragon.
I could feel the head supporting my back. It was the Black Dragon, Raon.
I felt the soft, round texture of Raon’s head. My back grew damp. He seemed to be crying.
‘I can’t do it.’
The dragon came down. Kale looked at the elves beyond Fendrick who were approaching his side. The elves were frozen in a daze, staring down the wall. Then, the eyes of the two elves, the guardian warrior, and the chieftain who had come closer slowly returned to where Kayle was.
The Dragon had descended. I looked past Fendrick, who was approaching my side, at the Elves. They stood frozen in a daze, staring down below the City Wall. Then, the gazes of two Elves—the Guardian Warrior and the Tribal Chief who had drawn near—slowly turned toward where I stood.
“Are you okay?”
A white light was hovering in Fendrick’s hand. It was a healing power. The hand went straight to Cale’s back.
White light swirled in Fendrick’s hand. It was the power of healing. His hand moved directly toward my back.
“what?”
Fendrick was momentarily embarrassed and muttered.
Fendrick muttered in momentary confusion.
“After defeating the Tamer, I think it would be better for the elves to handle the animal work. Aren’t they the ones who lived with you all?”
Fendrick’s movements stopped. He looked at Cale and was once again speechless at his calm expression.
Fendrick’s movements stopped. He looked at me and, faced with my composed expression, found himself at a loss for words once more.
He was caring.
I was showing consideration.
Cale glanced away from Fendrick. I was hungry and tired, but I wondered what kind of hardship this was. Cale looked down the barrier.
“under.”
Fendrick could see Cale letting out a sigh-like laugh as he looked at the battlefield.
“I chose the hard way.”
Choi Han and the group were fighting very well. Cale could see Choi Han’s black auror cutting into the tamer’s stomach.
“Blood, blood! Brown! Come and protect me!”
“Blood, blood! Brown! Get over here and protect me!”
bang! Choi Han leisurely dodged the magician’s sword. Master Changsa, whose spear was completely burned out, took out the sword of his corpse subordinate and attacked Choi Han.
“There’s a lot going on because of the golden twins! Why on earth are they doing this?”
Master Changsa swung his sword as if he was venting his anger, but his sword never reached Choi Han.
The Spear Master swung his sword as if venting his frustration, yet his blade never once reached Choi Han.
In fact, it would be more accurate to say that it was bloody.
Choi Han, too, was fighting tirelessly as if he was going to die. There was blood.
Choi Han was the same—fighting recklessly, as if willing to die, without hesitation. Blood was everywhere.
‘I did it for no reason.’
Yes, I said it. It was difficult. I went down a difficult path for no reason.
Yes, I was presumptuous. I overstepped. I took the harder path for no reason.
I volunteered to conduct an experiment with Destruction Fire, and look at the state of things now. Kale lamented. If I had capable people, I should have simply used them.
Even though my heart was strong, for the first time I felt like I was going to collapse.
Fendrick, who interpreted Cale’s bitter smile differently, hesitated a few times with a complicated face before opening his mouth.
“…I will never forget the kindness of Confucius and others.”
But Cale couldn’t answer Fendrick’s words.
“You crazy bastards!”
Vicross, who was approaching, shouted harshly and swung his long sword. As Cale turned around, he saw a white bandage.
Vicross, who had drawn near, shouted roughly and swung his greatsword. In Kale’s eyes, which turned back, white bandages came into view.
Number One. That assassin.
Cale met the eyes exposed through the bandage. At that time, a cold voice sounded in his head. It was a voice full of crying.
-Kill it.
And the white bandage just flew away. Cale looked blankly at the being that bounced away without even reaching him.
There was no need for Vicross to swing a long sword. Raon used his strength. The white bandage floating in the air was embarrassed and tried to move its body, but could not move.
“W-What is it? Magic Mountain?”
Cale answered the white bandage’s question in his heart on his behalf.
‘No, it’s a dragon.’
A bloody voice came into his head.
-Now I can never forgive them.
Who are those?
-Human, it doesn’t appear as you said. Instead you don’t look. This is difficult for you, the weak one.
Kale willingly followed Raon’s words. He told Raon, who might go on a rampage.
“Okay, get some sleep.”
Cale closed his eyes.
Kale Heniatus closed his eyes.
“Kaaaaaaak!”
A desperate scream sounded like a distant echo.
A desperate scream echoed distantly through the air.
Bang!
“Above, the blessings of the great one…!”
Cale lost consciousness after hearing the last words spoken in a voice full of wonder, which he had never heard before. He desperately wanted to feel like he was slowly sinking down.
With those words, spoken in a voice filled with awe that he had never heard before, Kale Heniatus lost consciousness. As he felt himself slowly sinking downward, he earnestly wished for one thing.
But when Cale opened his eyes again, he was lying in a very, very burdensomely beautiful flower field. There was a strange wreath of leaves on his head.
It was a wreath made from the leaves of the world tree.
Cale was embarrassed.
