Helmut
Episode 129
Asuka shook her head.
“If you say so, I am also responsible. “Because you helped me while I was being chased by Black Hawk, they discovered your location!”
It made sense.
Asuka spoke firmly.
“It’s because they let their guard down, and I’ll make these guys come to their senses even if it means hitting them in the back. I’ll take responsibility for these guys and hold out as much as I can, so don’t worry about the safety of the rest here and go save Dino. “If Dino is dead, there’s no need to bring his body.”
A conclusion has been reached. When he wakes up, he’ll have to ask James and Andro, but they’ll agree that Helmut is going to save Dino.
Before dawn, Helmut woke James and Andro. The decision did not change before or after they woke up.
Helmut goes to rescue Dino. And the other three remain here to deal with any enemies that may appear.
“be careful.”
Andro said with a heavy face. James quickly added as well.
“Perhaps they are not trying to attack this side, but that side could be a trap.”
“If they take Dino hostage, then… … .”
Andro’s expression became determined. This means that you should not overdo it because of the guy who was taken hostage. Even if it’s his friend.
There was something similar to sadness and camaraderie in the air between Andro and James. For some reason, it tickled me.
Helmut soon asked.
“Are you ready?”
“good.”
“Go ahead. The day will be bright.”
They nodded their heads resolutely, as if they were about to go to war.
In the sense that lives are at stake, this is a small war. It is also their first real-life experience. Coincidentally, I met a very dangerous opponent.
Helmut looked around the camp with the three and spoke one last time.
“Then I’ll go.”
I ran across the campsite like I was flying. Running at top speed while controlling her breathing.
Instincts and senses revive, and thoughts are erased. Leave and return as quickly as possible.
All he has to do is save Dino and come back. I don’t think about the guys I left behind until I achieved my goal.
It was faster to run up a tree than to step on the ground.
Helmut approached the target ahead of schedule. I think it took a little over 10 minutes.
I found the right one. A large rocky hill was visible between the trees. Literally a huge rock stands majestically tall. The rock is entirely a hill.
It stands tall on a high ground compared to its surroundings, so it looks like it could fall down at any moment. However, a rock of that mass would not move easily.
Helmut paused for a moment in the visible range.
Dawn has not yet broken. The day was slowly getting brighter. The view was surprisingly clear in the bright blue air.
You can see a person lying right under the rock. Judging by his physique and appearance, he is Dino.
‘Slowly, or right away.’
Normally, I would take a cautious approach. However, it is equally difficult for enemies to deal with sudden attacks. There is no time to delay.
‘It goes on like this.’
With each step of his foot, the tree trembled and shook off its leaves.
widely! Helmut kicked the last tree and flew through the air. Jump across the street in one go! My feet hit the floor and I spewed out dust.
The person lying down was shaken by the recoil. I lie down on my back, but my body moves slightly.
Fortunately, it wasn’t a corpse. It seems alive.
‘Where is Fasho?’
A sword can stab you in the back at any time. Without losing his nerve, Helmut stretched out his hand toward him.
“Dino?”
When I touched him, he flinched and trembled. Helmut turned him over and laid him down.
“Dino.”
I had to check his condition and carry him right away. Helmut looked closely at Jim’s condition.
Dino, stimulated, opened his eyes. However, there is no focus on the empty pupil. A strange sound came out of his mouth.
“Grrrrgh!”
Suddenly, demonic energy erupted from Dino’s body. A different method from how monsters emit magical energy. This is reflux. The demonic energy rebels and leaks out of the body.
‘What is this condition?’
Something is wrong. In an unusual situation, Helmut fell away from him and retreated.
As soon as he left his distance, Dino jumped up and screamed.
“Kaaaaaaak!”
A stiff body. A state in which one stands up but is supported by energy rather than muscle strength. There is no light of reason in the bloodshot eyes.
I could feel the natural vis and magic energy clashing fiercely in his body. It was some kind of runaway.
Although he had never encountered this phenomenon even in theory, Helmut realized it instinctively.
‘Has demon energy been injected into the body?’
I also injected quite a bit of it. Magi is a violent force. It is also a power that is not compatible with humans. Only if one has had the germ of darkness since the fetus can one accept it without difficulty.
Even warlocks cannot accept and use magical energy in its pure form. It was necessary to transform it into my own magic and melt it.
A normal human being forcibly turned into a monster. If you leave it like this, your energy will run out and you will die.
But it was obvious what he would do before he died. Magi awakens aggressive instincts.
The guy who was no longer Dino immediately defined Helmut as his enemy.
“Kaaaaak!”
He rushed right in and hit Helmut with his fist. bang! Quagwang! bang! Simple, childlike movements. But its power was enormous.
Helmut raised Vis and blocked the repeated blows with his sword sheath. It seems like he blocks a rock every time he blocks it. His grip was sore and even his bones were shaking.
Helmut narrowed his eyes.
“… … .”
No matter how strong a crazy person is, there are limits.
Dino cannot last one minute against Helmut when they fight one on one. Even if a guy like that becomes stronger through simple ignorance, he won’t change much.
Instead of blocking like this, it’s over as soon as Helmut starts attacking.
A state in which all senses of the body are paralyzed. Hitting a vital spot won’t make you faint, but even if you can’t subdue it, you can still kill it.
The sword covered in vis will pierce the demonic energy and separate his body and head. It was simple.
However, Helmut was considering a more difficult method than that simple method.
‘What should I do to save someone’s life without killing them?’
This is just a waste of time. No matter how many tricks he uses to make him stronger, Fasho knows that Helmut will not be defeated by a guy like this.
‘They say he’s an assassin, but it would be more appropriate to say that his methods are that of a warlock.’
By the standards of the Forest of Dig, it is not that great of a Magi. However, what flowed out as it collided with the vis felt strong enough in this outside world.
So much so that the sprouts of darkness reacted to the magic energy I felt for the first time in a long time.
The sprout of darkness stirred and stirred. It was not some kind of force, but rather like a living organism living in Helmut’s heart.
In an instant, Dino’s attack stopped. His empty eyes stared at Helmut’s chest.
I am feeling it. The sprout of darkness there.
Helmut instinctively realized this.
‘Maybe we can use this.’
Helmut stretched out his hand as if to attack. Now that Dino had stopped was an opportunity. His hand grabbed Dino’s shoulder.
The buds of darkness wriggled and sucked up the demonic energy. As if it was meant to be that way.
Similar forces. But this is a force with substance. It purrs as if to entice its compatriots, telling them to come out of the resisting body on the other side and come this way.
That movement was disgusting. As if parts of the body were moving on their own.
The Magi that was colliding with Vis in Dino’s body changed direction. Gathering is the habit of energy. Magi avoided the violent collision and found a way out.
Anything can be useful. The sprout of darkness was now doing its job.
Dino’s Vis and Magi began to separate. The separated Magi slowly flowed into Helmut along his palm.
Helmut has controlled the sprouts of darkness for a long time. It wouldn’t be difficult for external demonic energy to come in so blatantly.
Helmut began to take over Dino’s fight. He burns the Magi with bis.
It was inevitable that the demonic energy scattered in the air would seep through breathing, but it would be easier for it to concentrate and rush in like this.
‘It’s a good thing Fasho isn’t here.’
If he had been attacked in this situation, even Helmut would have been in trouble.
Helmut’s Vis expertly burned Dino’s magical energy. The work was quickly completed because it was as if I was being sucked into the buds of darkness here.
Helmut took his hand away from him. He went this far and if he dies, it can’t be helped. Because he’s not a wizard.
“Hmm.”
Dino trembled. The lost focus returns.
Since the two forces collided, he must have suffered internal injuries.
As a swordsman, he has a trained and strong body. It won’t get any worse.
“Are you awake?”
Dino nodded his head weakly. I can understand, but my vocal cords seem paralyzed.
He immediately collapsed into his seat. And he couldn’t get up again.
‘Have you lost consciousness?’
It doesn’t seem like we delayed for long, but we had to get back quickly. Helmut stretched out his hand and tried to carry his dino around. But he realized something strange. The wall in front of him was getting closer.
‘This.’
Rumbling! Was it the last trick? The rock was moving. I could see a slope sloping sharply in this direction.
It was fast. The rock was large and heavy enough to become a hill on its own. If you collapse like this, your whole body will be crushed like an ant. It was a moment when I couldn’t even get out on my own.
In front of Helmut was a fallen dino. It was Dino who was almost saved. A sharp light flashed in his eyes.
Helmut immediately threw himself away.
***
Even though it is dawn, the forest is not completely quiet. Even if no one speaks, the sounds of mountain birds screeching and insects disturb the eardrums.
But at some point, the sound died out. It had been less than five minutes since Helmut left.
“The guy is here.”
Asuka muttered calmly. However, his eyes are burning with an intense desire to win.
He was the most motivated to fight the assassin here. He didn’t mind knowing that his enemy was stronger than him. He is Asuka, who lost her fear from birth.
He lifted one corner of his mouth and smiled.
“Go ahead and attack me.”
On the other hand, Andro and James sat back with nervous faces. If the three are back to back, the square is complemented. triangle. This is the optimal formation to deal with enemies who may appear from nowhere.
As long as it’s human, it won’t rise from the ground.
But the assassin did not take them by surprise.
“this this. “They are noble brats who got the wrong friend.”
A voice flowed from somewhere. It’s a voice that gives off a shallow, eerie feeling.
It was on the side of the road. Between the lush tree branches, I saw a person walking. A leisurely gait as if out for a walk. It was a luxury that only the strong could have.
The bastard’s appearance was fully revealed before my eyes. He was very tall and had long limbs like a spider. He looks threatening from the moment he approaches.
The white clown mask added to the bizarre feel. Its appearance had the effect of visually making the opponent cringe.
His gaze fell on Asuka.
“Oh, isn’t one of you a noble?”
Not a noble person, but someone you can kill safely. Fasho’s eyes became cold as he sarcastically said.
