Chapter 293
Episode 293
Quad-dud!
Even though an eerie sound was echoing, the thunderbird did not die. On the contrary, the eyes glaring at me were becoming more ferocious and fierce.
They say he’s a god, and his tenacity is at a phenomenal level. No, I said this isn’t that strong among divine beasts. If that’s the case, it’s hard to imagine how stubborn this guy is.
I guess I’ll have to squeeze in some more smelting.
In any case, Control, a hidden weapon, did its job and succeeded in capturing it.
Everything was a disguise for this moment.
[You didn’t forget what your gift was?]
That can’t be possible.
Hematoma, like a crazy guy, doesn’t know my intentions.
This is what build-up is.
“Can you endure this?”
[Yes, how dare you…]
“The sounds you make before you die are no different from those of a human being.”
Because I’ve been hanging out with humans, I wonder if even my brain has become pickled by humans.
Then he becomes a hybrid with the power of a divine beast and the spirit of a human.
It would be nice if the two had synergy, but unfortunately, their shortcomings seemed to be mixed together.
So, I should have worked hard to become stronger.
“Shinsu’s bones are strong.”
[I do not disappear. Remain forever as an immortal being, you and everything around you….]
Kwajik!
The Thunderbird’s curse ended when its neck turned 360 degrees. As the light in the eyes dimmed and disappeared, the huge fuselage quickly descended to the ground.
Coo!
As the dull impact spread, the ground caved in. I looked down at the corpse, whose Force energy was quickly dissipating, then cut open its chest and took out the essence. He then moved the essence to his left hand and then brought the blood on his right hand to his mouth.
The countless gifts possessed by the Thunderbird passed by. The two types of divine punishment that bothered me the most – storm and lightning – caught my eye, but what also caught my attention was the ability that kept me in a corner throughout the confrontation.
“High-speed flight.”
A gift that is close to a power whose limits are unknown.
I chose the high-speed flight without hesitation.
Cheeeeee!
At the same time, a dizzy feeling came over me that made me dizzy. The pain was much more intense than when copying the gift. No, it was the pain of splitting my head.
“…Tsk.”
Is it because of the aftermath of the fierce battle? It could be because I am not in proper physical condition.
[Is this bigger than I thought?]
But the hematoma’s answer made me realize that even that wasn’t true. Accepting it as the power of a divine beast entails a lot of pain.
While the pain progressed, the high-speed flight was copied step by step. It took longer than any other legendary gift to obtain the power of a monster.
[A very amazing new person has arrived. Good? Kkkkkk! I think it’s more cheesy than you can imagine? I don’t want to have anything to do with this place at all.]
Listening to Hyeongjong’s words, it seemed like high-speed flight also had its own ego.
I thought that if I trained him well, he could be a great graduate student.
The first thing to do was to get my messed body back together.
Passs.
Perhaps because the essence of the divine beast was taken out, the Thunderbird’s body broke into small pieces and disappeared. That something that disappeared like this can be resurrected?
I’ll have to ask Yongyong when he comes.
Paaaat!
Did you even listen to what I said?
At that time, two beings appeared through space movement. It was Hyuna and Yongyong.
It wasn’t the timing I wanted.
[Wow, you really beat the Thunderbird? [Amazing.]
It’s like he appears as soon as the battle is over. Did you even wait?
That appearance was by no means welcome.
[They might consider you a threat.]
I don’t like the hematoma, but the content was right.
Pajik! Puzzle!
And for some reason, the essence of the divine beast began to cause a violent backlash.
I couldn’t figure out what was happening.
However, there is nothing good about staying here for too long.
So I used high-speed flight without hesitation.
[uh? Wait!]
The moment the gift was activated, I needed a clear image of where I was going to go in my head.
So, I set my destination in front of a hotel suite in LA, where I could relax comfortably while still being a reasonable distance from here.
Paaaaaa!
High-speed flight was different from gifts such as transfer or space movement. I reached my destination in an instant, as if I had replayed my flight from here to my destination in less than a second.
The pressure I had to endure in the process was similar to that of a thunderbird when it performs high-speed flight.
[crazy. Then you die.]
People don’t die easily.
[Stop talking nonsense. [Why are you using the body I’m supposed to use so recklessly!]
Howling with hopes that won’t come true.
I tried to ignore the hematoma’s warning, but unfortunately, he was right.
I barely landed on the hotel rooftop and looked at my arms. The arm, which was tattered and exposed to the bone, was being restored through super regeneration.
High-speed flight was not something the human body could endure. Even though I was moving from Washington state to California, I could have died trying to travel a longer distance due to such a shock.
[But you know, right?]
Yes, there’s no way the hematoma wouldn’t think what I thought.
This means that if you have a strong body that can withstand high-speed flight, you can travel anywhere in the world at will.
The problem is clear images, but I don’t know if this will be solved by my visit or if it will be replaced with photos that can be printed from the Internet.
I’ll have to check this later too.
“Having a tough body comes first.”
[Look for a good guy.]
Hematoma This guy has a taste for playing boss. I really didn’t like the way he gave orders by just throwing them out loud.
I came down from the rooftop and entered the suite.
I thought there was no one there, but Anna Christine was in the room.
“Who… oh! exorcism!”
I wondered why I was surprised, but there was one more drawback to high-speed flight.
That means the clothes you were wearing couldn’t hold up. The coat that Zola Man gave me held up, but it too became tattered due to the fierce battle with the Thunderbird.
I don’t know if it will be restored to its original state if I send it in for repairs.
Anyway, my current state was naked with a tattered coat on.
I suddenly became a barbarian.
“Jun Ho! “What happened?”
“Wait a minute.”
There was some luggage left inside, so I went into the room, changed my clothes, and came out.
Even then, Anna Christine had a regretful expression on her face.
Why are you like that?
“Could it be that you really caught a thunderbird?”
“Gotcha.”
“…Oh God.”
Anna Christine shook her head in disbelief. Since we were dealing with a divine beast, the surprise was not surprising.
“What about the others?”
“Now everyone has gone to Washington state for a cult case. I will remain here to provide support and prepare for any emergency. But I never thought Junho would come right here.”
“That’s it.”
Yongyong and Hyuna will take care of cleaning up the battlefield.
I felt a wave of fatigue wash over me, perhaps because I had arrived in a safe place or because it was the aftermath of a fierce battle.
“I’m going to rest, so don’t wake me up unless there’s anything else to do.”
“I will report to you.”
“I see.”
After saying those words, I went into my room and fell into sleep. I needed time to digest the high-speed flight and recover from the continuous abuse of my body.
* * *
It was a break in consciousness. As soon as I lay down, I lost consciousness, and when I opened my eyes again, three days had passed.
I think this is my first time sleeping soundly for such a long time.
After washing up lightly, I came out and there were many people besides Anna Christine. It was crowded with Herbert, Daniel, and bodyguards.
The slim man who spotted me first approached me with a happy expression on his face.
“Jun Ho! Are you safe? “You were so worried!”
“What’s there to worry about? When did you come before that?”
“I came right away as soon as I heard the news about Junho. I was really worried. “I know what happens.”
“I almost died. “The thunderbird has been removed.”
As I spoke, surprise once again spread throughout the hall.
I don’t know what’s so surprising.
I killed the person who was supposed to kill me.
Could it be that Anna Christine didn’t tell you?
“I heard it again from Junho’s mouth.”
I don’t know what the difference is whether I say it or someone else says it.
Be that as it may, the slim man expressed his surprise with every muscle in his body.
“…It was also true. It’s ridiculous. “Jun-ho won the battle against Shin-soo.”
“I was lucky.”
[There was a lot going on to conclude with that one word. Hehe.]
It was a hematoma that was still growing.
Now that I think about it, even if Hyuna is like that, Yongyong could have appeared, but he hasn’t appeared yet.
[He didn’t come.]
You didn’t kick him out?
[Do you think that noble God-soo will step down
just because I tell him to go?] He says it with an expression that doesn’t make any sense, but I think Yongyong will be easily fooled. Even if I say Shinsoo, my image is that of a good guy.
There is a high possibility that my food will become the food of a hematoma.
After Zolaman’s surprise, Herbert offered his praise.
“We also believe that the headbreaker will win. Congratulations.”
“For something like that, I guess I’m not good at lying.”
“…Haha, it’s true that I can’t believe it. But it is true that I am betting on your victory. Right, Daniel?”
“That is true.”
“That’s unexpected.”
“You don’t believe a word I say.”
When I answered in a surprising way, Herbert showed his disappointment. Even if you are the President of the United States, your actions should be a bit lighter.
Rather, Daniel’s reliability is higher.
I would rather believe that Daniel was president and Herbert was vice president.
While I was thinking that, Herbert explained something related to the Thunderbird.
“By hunting thunderbirds, we were able to wipe out pseudo-religious forces. It’s all thanks to Headbreaker.”
“It was your ability to seize the opportunity.”
“Actually, I was scared. “I was worried about what would happen if you lost to the Thunderbird.”
“It may be said, but Herbert risked his political career. “I want you to know that I had faith in you.”
Daniel added politely.
They say he risked his political life, but that’s none of my business.
“See, I told you that saying that wouldn’t work.”
Herbert saw my expression and stepped forward, scolding Daniel.
What are they doing among themselves?
Daniel clicked his tongue lightly, and Herbert looked triumphant.
“Headbreaker’s original contract was fulfilled, but his contribution to liberating America from the Thunderbird’s conspiracy can still be considered great.”
“It was just a fair deal.”
“But as president of the United States, I can’t just ignore it. That doesn’t work either. So I prepared a gift for you.”
The smug expression on his face seemed like a mischief hiding something.
But I have no intention of joining in on that prank.
On the contrary, Herbert looked very heated and asked with an expression of disappointment at my lack of response.
“Aren’t you curious?”
“I’m curious, though.”
“oh! I thought you would know the case. We have prepared a variety of gifts. If you can choose one of them….”
“Why me?”
“What?”
“Take out everything you have prepared.”
Why choose just one? I was planning on taking them all if I liked them.
* * *
I really liked all the gifts Herbert had prepared, so I decided to receive all of them instead of just one. Even though Herbert thought this wasn’t right, he couldn’t resist my demand that he give it all.
Even around the time of receiving such a satisfying gift, Yongyong did not show up.
I have a lot of questions to ask when you show up.
[I have something to tell you.]
In the meantime, Hematoma called me over, saying he had something to say to me.
As I entered the world of images, a triumphant, unlucky face caught my eye.
“So why did you call me?”
“Ha, how ridiculous?”
Even if you say it all out loud, it doesn’t make any sense.
He sighed at my cold response.
“Thanks to me, you caught the divine beast, but you don’t even have a single thank you?”
“You want to receive a thank you?”
“No, that can’t be possible. “There is no way I would be satisfied with that much.”
I never said I would give it to him, but he was playing drums and janggu all by himself.
I was amazed at the thought circuit that I thought I would give in the first place. Do you want to open the head and check?
“so?”
“There is something I wish for.”
The guy who curls up the corners of his mouth.
I was quietly listening to what was being said.
“What I want is simple. “I want to borrow your body for a day.”
“What nonsense?”
“You can understand that much, right?”
“What are you going to do by borrowing it?”
Hearing my words, the corner of his mouth curled up in a disgusting way.
“It’s been a while since I got a breath of fresh air. “You also killed the woman next to you named Anna Christine?”
He spoke as if there was something going on, but when he took over my body, everyone was watching.
He has never touched a woman.
“I know what you mean.”
“oh! then?”
“I still wanted to give it a try.”
“Lending your body? It opened my eyes to your unique taste. Although it is desirable for me.”
I looked into his eyes full of anticipation and smiled.
“You’re fired!”
Then, he was isolated in a corner of the world of imagination. He had to be locked in a small, narrow room that I did not allow.
From the beginning, I had no intention of listening to his demands.
As expected, after hunting, Tosagu top is the best.
“Shall we go home now?”
