Chapter 50: Return 2

Translator: – – Editor: – –

If other heroes were to disrupt him, he wouldn’t be able to do it, but when there were no heroes, Artlan could deal with the golems by himself, even though they were strong.

At that point, a golem was crazed and massacring the minions who were attacking him. The golem was not looking at the heroes.

Vera’s meteors fell on the golem.

Boom, boom, boom!

The golem staggered in big steps, and Artlan ran and swung his saber. He attacked the spot where Vera’s meteors had done heavy damage, and a part of golem was destroyed.

Inside the castle’s force field, Libya appeared. She saw that part of the golem was already broken and sighed. She needed the golem’s help to fight four heroes. If not for that help, she had no chance.

She couldn’t let the golem be destroyed. She made an ice flower with her hands. The ice flower broke into petals, and cold chills covered the minions who were attacking the golem.

The heroes might withstand that attack, but the minions all froze in a moment. All of the minions within the range of the attack fell, frozen, and the golem swung his fist at them.

Crack, crash!

Most of the minions were broken into little shards of ice, but Diane shot an arrow and hit the golem in the head.

Bang!

After being hit by the meteors, the golem’s functions were already low, and so it was destroyed by the arrow. Libya bit her lips, but did not dare to step out of the castle’s force field.

Four heroes were standing there, and Libya was frustrated for being stuck.

Junhyuk realized he had survived that battle. Meanwhile, he got himself killed once, but being an expert had helped him. He sighed in relief and contributed to destroying the castle’s force field by swinging his longswords alongside Artlan.

Libya could still come out, so he was prepared to use his force field at any moment while he continued to swing at the force field.

There were only two surviving minions, and they stayed close to Junhyuk. One of the survivor’s face looked familiar.

He had survived OK, but he was crazed and hitting the castle’s force field like a madman. It was hard to speak to him.

Then, Ellic showed up, standing next to Libya. He looked at the situation and clicked his tongue and he saw Junhyuk destroying the castle’s force field, standing behind Artlan, so he talked to Lybia.

Libya shook her head, but Ellic lifted his hammer and said:

“I will do it.”

After he spoke, he rushed out.

Clang!

Artlan blocked him but was pushed back. Meanwhile, Ellic was holding his hammer high in the air and said to Junhyuk:

“Die.”

Ellic dropped his hammer, and Junhyuk moved by spatial relocation.

Slam!

Ellic slammed the hammer and created shockwaves, but Junhyuk was out of range. Junhyuk looked at how far he had moved. Not only could he use spatial relocation twice in a row, but the distance had also increased.

He had moved thirty-three feet, and Ellic went toward him. He was hit by Vera’s fire spear and Diane’s arrows but still moved toward him.

This battle was over, but if Ellic wanted to give him more gold coins, Junhyuk would not refuse.

“Come on!”

Junhyuk shouted, and Ellic’s eyes widened, and he ran. Holding his hammer, he approached, and Junhyuk looked at the others.

The heroes were concentrating their attacks. Did Ellic think he could kill him?

Ellic was about to smash Junhyuk with his hammer when Junhyuk created a force field.

Thunk!

The hammer bounced off, and Ellic stepped on the force field and went over it.

Junhyuk was curious about what he was doing, and Ellic rushed from behind.

“What?”

He was pushing the entire force field toward the castle. The other heroes were dumbfounded.

Only two minions were attacking the castle’s force field, and that was not enough for the job. Ellic was risking his life to deliver Junhyuk to Lybia, who was making an ice spear.

Minota showed up, standing behind Libya.

“Shit.”

They were risking their lives to kill him.

The force field lasted for ten seconds. Ellic was out of energy and stopped pushing when, suddenly, Artlan beheaded him.

Ellic had a smile on his face when he died.

Minota went out and used his doppelganger ability. Two Minotas were stepping on the force field.

Crunch, crunch!

Half of the force field was underground, but Junhyuk did not panic and shouted:

“Destroy the castle’s force field.”

There were three seconds remaining. If all heroes concentrated their fire power on the castle, they could shatter the force field. Then, this battle would end in a victory.

Artlan did not hesitate and hit the force field. All heroes began attacking the castle’s force field, and Minota laughed at them.

“That’s an interesting way to fight.”

After Minota spoke, the two Minotas rushed at Nudra and Artlan. Vera and Diane continued their attacks against the castle.

Libya was making an ice spear to use against Junhyuk, and he couldn’t retreat. Junhyuk hit on the castle’s force field with all his might.

In two seconds, he had hit the castle four times, but he wanted to contribute more.

Junhyuk’s force field disappeared, and Libya threw her ice spear. Junhyuk ran away while hitting the castle’s force field.

Libya’s ice spear traveled in a single direction. If he ran sideways, he could dodge it. Junhyuk ran to the side, still hitting the castle, and Minota ran after him.

“Woo, woo, woo!”

Junhyuk knew he did everything he could do, and he hit the castle one last time and ran toward Minota.

The active time for Minota’s doppelganger ability ended, and only one Minota remained. He stomped the ground and rushed hard toward Junhyuk.

Junhyuk’s concentration was at an all time high. Minota’s speed was really high, and Junhyuk looked at him intently and, all of sudden, used spacial relocation.

Junhyuk was just behind Minota, and Minota quickly turned around. He was really fast and decided to rush Junhyuk.

Clung!

Junhyuk swung his longswords but still absorbed the shock. He dropped to the ground, and Minota tried to stomp him. Junhyuk thought he might get killed, and his hair stood up, but then, an energy blast hit Minota. It was Sarang.

Junhyuk got up quickly, and Libya threw another ice spear between Minota’s legs. He did not have time to dodge and had already used up spatial relocation and the force field.

He tried to block it with his swords.

Bang!

With a loud noise, the ice spear thinned out and disappeared as it went through Junhyuk’s chest.

Minota moved again, but he was also disappearing. He looked behind him, and the castle was falling down. Minota thinned out and said to Junhyuk:

“I will kill you next time.”

As Minota spoke to him, Junhyuk grinned and slapped him. Minota was vanishing, but he had made the ox plenty angry.

“Filthy ox, I will make money out of you.”

He was killed but would resurrect. Junhyuk would kill him multiple times and collect items from him.

Minota was not excited and smiled instead. Junhyuk felt a chill.

Minota disappeared, and Artlan walked over.

“You OK?”

“Yes.”

It was really scary at very last minute. He could’ve been killed by the ice spear, but the castle collapsed right on time. If it hadn’t, he would’ve been killed.

Artlan did not speak much and waved his hand and disappeared. The other heroes were gone as well. Sarang, Junhyuk and two minions remained.

The two minions were out of breath. They were still crazed, and Junhyuk looked at Sarang.

“Big brother.”

“I will see you in my room.”

Sarang nodded and thinned out. Junhyuk felt a strong light hit his eyes and closed them.

—

Junhyuk slowly opened his eyes and saw the ceiling of his own room. This time, he had experienced death.

It made him scared, and he shivered.

Junhyuk got up slowly.

“Big brother.”

He turned his head, and Sarang jumped down from the bed and hugged him, and they both fell on the ground.

Thump!

“Ouch!”

He hit the back of his skull on the ground and frowned. Sarang buried her head in his chest, then lifted it and asked, shouting:

“We survived right?!”

“Right.”

Sarang got up and started dancing to her own beat. Junhyuk smiled as she danced.

“What are you doing?”

“It’s a ceremony of joy, don’t you see?”

Sarang grabbed him and got him up. Holding his hands, she danced, and Junhyuk laughed.

Until then, he had come back alone. This time, he was sharing the joy of surviving with someone else.

They both danced, and Junhyuk rested on the bed and watched her dance. Sarang got tired and sat on the chair, spinning the chair in circles. She hit the desk as she spun and stopped.

“Ouch!”

“Are you all right?”

Sarang cried and laughed, and Junhyuk laughed with her.

“Big brother.”

Junhyuk looked at her, she tapped her stomach and said:

“I’m hungry.”

Junhyuk looked at his watch.

“Should we dine out?”

“No, we should order pizza.”

Junhyuk looked at her. She was sitting on his chair with grin on her face, and he smiled.

“It’s late. Is that OK for you?”

“They think I’m at the library.”

Junhyuk used his cellphone to order pizza. She requested a soda and a salad as well. She was still sitting on the chair and looked at her hands. The ring was still on her left index finger.

“What’s that?”

“I got it from the battlefield, but I did not know I could bring it with me.”

“An item from the battlefield?”

“Ah, I didn’t tell you about it. Skia dropped it.”

Junhyuk looked at her ring and then at his own hands. Both wrists had engravings on it.

“Summon.”

Two swords showed up. Junhyuk held both swords and felt no need to buy any other weapon.

Sarang looked surprised, and Junhyuk put the swords away.

“Oh, you are something else! You earned an item.”

“Do you envy me?”

“Yes. I envy you.”

Junhyuk agreed with her. Sarang puffed her chest and placed both hands on her hips, making a superhero pose.

“You should serve me. Do you know how many times I saved you?”

“Right. Do look after me.”

Sarang looked at Junhyuk. If it weren’t for him, she would’ve been killed way before. Sarang stared at Junhyuk, and he became a little embarrassed.

“The delivery is late.”

“They will be here in thirty minutes.”

Sarang thought Junhyuk was cute and got up. She grabbed Junhyuk’s chest and pulled him toward her.

“What?”

She kissed him on the cheek, and Junhyuk got all red.

“Big bro, thanks,” she whispered in his ear.
