BXBX NOVEL Chapter 167
The reason that Lee Gong-Myung was afraid wasn’t simply because of the terrifying aura that Kang Chul-In was emitting . It was also because he had noticed that there was a small girl in Kang Chul-In’s arms,
A girl? D-Don’t tell me…! Overlord Kang Chul-In broke through Baruk Al-Yusuf’s army just to save… a girl? With his life on the line?
Lee Gong-Myung started to think quickly .
I-I’m sure that’s someone in his family . It might be his daughter or his little sister . If not, there’s no way that he would risk his life just for a simple girl .
Lee Gong-Myung’s guess was correct .
“Is that… your daughter?”
Lee Gong-Myung asked cautiously .
“Does it look like that?”
“Yes, it does . ”
“That’s right . She’s my daughter . ”
Kang Chul-In agreed readily .
“She was kidnapped by Sheville Polansky, the lord of the Bittermoon territory . ”
“So…”
“What father would just stand by if their daughter was kidnapped? Did you not watch Taken?
Kang Chul-In asked .
Both Liam Neeson and Kang Chul-In had jumped into enemy territory willingly in order to save their respective daughters .
“Haha . ”
Lee Gong-Myung laughed, nearly speechless .
“Taken… I guess so . The scale seems a little big, though . ”
“Is that so?”
“How many have you killed so far?”
“Maybe a thousand? I don’t really count when I kill people . ”
Kang Chul-In answered, unshaken .
“Amazing… I didn’t know you were someone like this . ”
From Kang Chul-In’s responses, Lee Gong-Myung could tell what kind of person Kang Chul-In was .
Ambition and bold . That was Kang Chul-In . He was a person that would be willing to do anything in order to reach their goal .
This kind of person couldn’t be predicted once they set their minds to something, as they would be willing to do anything .
“Well… I think this is enough probing, so shall we have a chat face to face now?”
Laughing, Kang Chul-In started to move towards the edge of the cliff .
This man… is trying to kill me!
Lee Gong-Myung could feel cold sweat pouring down his back, his heartbeat starting to increase, and his legs start to shake . Even though his mind remained cool, his body didn’t follow his will .
Not… negotiable .
Lee Gong-Myung completely erased the notion of trying to negotiate with Kang Chul-In .
Lee Gong-Myung… you die here .
Kang Chul-In’s thoughts were that different .
To him, Lee Gong-Myung was a great enemy that couldn’t be kept alive .
Unlike the useless lord that was Rothschild that only knew how to rely on his money, Lee Gong-Myung was extremely smart . After all, the reason that Alex Rothschild was able to push Kang Chul-In to his doom was because he had Lee Gong-Myung by his side .
Lee Gong-Myung was a big obstacle in Kang Chul-In’s path to becoming the emperor of Pangaea . Even bigger than Alex Rothschild .
“I’ll be back . ”
After saying that to the Altaica and the sleeping Arshelly…
Tuk!
Kang Chul-In jumped towards the other cliff, where Lee Gong-Myung was .
“ . . . !”
Looking at this, Lee Gong-Myung’s eyes were filled with even more shock and fear .
The distance that separated the two cliffs was massive .
The originally short and narrow canyon had become wider because of Lee Gong-Myung’s traps, and now they had at least 150 metres splitting them apart .
He couldn’t believe it .
Even though he was an Overlord, he was trying to jump 150 metres with a standing long jump .
It wasn’t like he had some flight abilities, or like he was the Hulk from Marvel .
He was closing the distance extremely quick, as he streaked across the sky like a rocket .
Looking at this, Lee Gong-Myung clenched onto his White Rain Fan harder .
The only thing that could save him from this situation was the White Rain Fan .
The White Rain Fan had the powers of ‘calling the rain and wind’, as well as ‘moving the mountains and rivers’ .
I can do it!
Lee Gong-Myung put all of his remaining mana into the White Rain Fan .
Kang Chul-In was currently midair, and it was practically impossible for him to dodge in that state . This was Lee Gong-Myung\'s chance .
The moment when Kang Chul-In’s feet weren’t on the ground!
Kuooo!
A white breeze started to swirl around Lee Gong-Myung’s fan .
And,
Whik!
Lee Gong-Myung swung his fan in the direction of Kang Chul-In . Using the power of the wind, he was trying to push Kang Chul-In down .
Whiiii!
The fierce winds traveled to where Kang Chul-In was, and tried to pull him down .
Pft-
But unexpectedly, Kang Chul-In laughed .
Wind?
Call whatever winds you want .
Kang Chul-In had the authority ‘Vortex’, which was able to completely overpower the winds that the White Rain Fan could bring .
“Take this . ”
Saying this, Kang Chul-In’s right hand glowed with a blue light, and the vortex met with Lee Gong-Myung’s winds .
And the result,
Kuaa-!
Was an overwhelming victory for Kang Chul-In and the vortex .
After negating Lee Gong-Myung’s attack, the vortex started to fly towards Lee Gong-Myung .
“ . . . !”
Looking the massive vortex flying towards him, Lee Gong-Myung nearly let go of the fan in his hands .
To think that Kang Chul-In would be able to counter this attack… it wouldn’t be an overstatement to say he had no future left .
I need to run…
Lee Gong-Myung threw his body with the remaining strength he had .
BANG-!!
And the vortex swallowed the area that Lee Gong-Myung had been in .
---------
After returning to the Bittermoon territory, Baruk Al-Yusuf called all of his troops, and hurriedly started to retreat towards his territory .
“Slow, too slow! Hurry up already!”
Since Baruk Al-Yusuf continued to command the soldiers, the soldiers didn’t even have time to rest .
“Uu…!”
“So… tired . ”
This was a bad and stupid use of one’s army .
If Baruk Al-Yusuf was smart, he wouldn’t have moved his army from here even if he had to sacrifice his territory .
It was idiotic to try and return to Anatolia quickly after conquering the Bittermoon territory just 3 hours prior .
And not only that, but it was nighttime .
They needed at least a day to rest after fighting the battle, so it was obvious that the soldiers would be extremely exhausted .
What would he be able to do even if he returned to Anatolia when his army was so exhausted?
Even if Baruk Al-Yusuf used his authority to empower his troops, they wouldn’t be able to fight unless they had stamina left .
“Quickly! I told you to move faster!”
But under pressure, Baruk Al-Yusuf didn’t have a cool mind .
Anatolia was a key piece in Baruk Al-Yusuf’s dream of building an Islam empire within Pangaea . It was a treasure that Baruk Al-Yusuf couldn’t give up no matter what .
“These slow bastards…”
Unsatisfied with the marching speed, Baruk Al Yusuf shouted .
“Anyone that falls behind will be executed…”
Just when Baruk Al-Yusuf was shouting---
“Huh?”
“What’s that?!”
“Are they doing fireworks…”
Some soldiers looked up at the night sky, and questioned .
“What are you doing, in the middle of…”
Angrily, Baruk Al-Yusuf turned his gaze towards where the other soldiers were looking .
Something’s shining?
There, he could see some shining things falling . A lot of them, and extremely quickly!
“What the fuck…?”
At this unexpected situation, Baruk Al-Yusuf swore .
“Hmm?”
At that moment, one of the soldiers put their hands out in curiosity at what these shining things were . Then,
BANG!
That soldier’s head blew up .
“ . . . !”
At this sudden explosion, everyone looked over .
Or to be precise, they tried to, but couldn’t .
Why?
Because that explosion was just the beginning .
Bang!
Bang!
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Everywhere, small explosions occurred .
Although the blast radius wasn’t that big, it was extremely effective .
Ddudduddudduu…
The sound of rumbling hooves shook the ground…
“Where are you running!?”
“You weak trash!”
And around 1000 cavalrymen ambushed the Anatolia soldiers from the back . They were soldiers wearing black--- the cavalry of the Laputa army!
That wasn’t all .
Flap flap!
With large flapping noises---
-Kyooo!
-Kyakkk!
Wyverns started to pack up together and fly over the Anatolian soldiers . These were the reinforcements that Kwak-Jung had called .
And,
“I’m here!”
A man that was riding on the biggest wyvern roared .
“KANG CHUL-INNN!!”
The wyvern rider, Dorian Explorer, shouted Kang Chul-In’s name .
“I’m here! I’m here to repay my debts!!”
Dorian shouted to someone who wasn’t there .
“We go!”
Dorian jumped off the wyvern .
Bang!
Landing perfectly and rolling like an action star, Dorian stood up .
“Now, let\'s…”
When Dorian was about to show off his confidence and begin the fight, he started to look around him, as if something were weird .
“Uh… Well, haha…”
Dorian laughed awkwardly .
“Who the hell is this guy…?”
“What’s this bastard doing…?”
The soldiers of Anatolia all stared at Dorian, as if they were looking at an idiot .
“Hey, why only… why me! Hey! You traitors!”
Dorian shouted towards the sky, or more accurately, towards his allies .
No one had jumped off with him .
The only person that had descended was Dorian .
Which meant,
“I-I’m, I\'m just going to go now, okay…? Haha…”
That Dorian had just jumped into enemy territory by himself, just like an idiot .
