Chapter 183
“How in the world did you manage to break through my Deep Space Binding? My Binding is something that even dragons can’t easily break through.”
The magic he used was the ‘Deep Space Binding’, which is one of the highest levels of magic related to the Binding.
It can be said that it separates the space between two people and adds an illusion, making it difficult to recognize, let alone break.
But
Such a spell has been shattered before his eyes by a bare-handed man.
And the reason was very simple.
“Why would you put a lizard against my father?”
Because my father is overwhelmingly stronger than a dragon.
“Julie!!!”
The barrier shattered, and the man standing behind my father sprouted huge wings from his back and flew toward me and Julie at a level of speed that was impossible to follow with the eyes.
Only the gusts of wind in the aftermath showed how fast he flew.
“……Father?”
“Are you hurt, do you have enough mana, do you think you’ve lost any blood, are you dizzy or anything?”
He touched Julie’s cheek and looked at her as if he didn’t know what to do, despite being so cold the first time I saw him.
Julie, who had never seen her father like this before, had the most surprised expression she had ever seen on her face.
In the meantime, my father, now standing in front of me, also looks at the enemy in front of him and asks in a low voice, “Are you hurt?”
Although he doesn’t turn around, his voice is full of concern.
“No, I’m not seriously injured.”
Standing behind him, I clench my fists and stare at the monster in front of me, eager to end the battle.
Yes, the fight wasn’t over yet, and he wasn’t looking back.
If that’s the case, then I──
“Rest.”
“……?”
“I’m enough.”
And then, without realizing it, I received what he handed me. A silver watch resting on my hand.
“I’ll leave it with you for a while.”
Tsk-tsk-tsk.
Craning his neck to either side, he rolls up his sleeves and walks slowly toward him.
“Don Vito Corleone, yes, I think it would be fun to strip you of all your pretensions on this occasion!”
When he sees father approaching, he throws his arms up in the air as if he’s having fun.
“Yes!!! In this day and age, ordinary humans are──”
“──You’re loud.”
It ended in a very short time with a quick punch that created a bright red line along its trajectory…….
“What?! It’s all over……?!”
The creature was unable to say a word, only letting out a boiling sound of phlegm through the hole in its massive body.
A technique no CS player would be unaware of.
It’s one of those things that you can’t help but hear at least once in the middle of a big scenario.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt“Ariete (ram).”
It may seem like a weak name, but it has another meaning.
Siege weights, an ancient weapon of siege warfare and a favorite way to breach gates.
It’s a fancy name for a piece of human technology but this man did it with nothing but his own strength.
Countless walls crumble at a single blow of his fist, gates are smashed, and the castle falls.
How many men could take such a direct hit from a siege weapon and still be standing?
Surely such a being would be called a monster, not a human.
“Kyaaaaah!”
The one in front of him might be weak and foolish, but his body was definitely touching the realm of ‘monster’.
“Keh, keh, keh, keh, keh!”
Or was it his mind?
Even as he watched the chunks of flesh filling the hole at an insane pace, the man who bore the name of Corleone continued to pace numbly and slowly.
And then, just as his fist was about to come out once more.
“Wait…….”
A man stood in front of him.
“I’ll take care of it, Don Corleone.”
“Are you sure you don’t mind?”
“I’m afraid I’m going to lose my mind if I don’t do this.”
The man smiled bitterly at father’s words of concern, then he reached for the lump of flesh in front of him, his eyes bright red.
He tried to say something, but it couldn’t follow because with a gesture of his hand squeezing something, the blood around him simultaneously gushed out.
“Blood maiden.”
At the same time, the blood coffin, which has turned into hundreds and thousands of spikes, traps him from both sides, and the coffin begins to shake.
Dwight Rodman has a fringe area of activity compared to the others gathered here, and while he hasn’t caused any major world events…… There’s a reason why others pay him the utmost deference and respect.
The day of the red moon.
For on that day, as a True Lord, he is able to wield the closest thing to supreme power that befits the name Master of Blood.
“Crush.”
Thud-thud-thud.
With a sound like a screw being tightened, the tube of blood created in midair instantly shrinks.
Thud-thud-thud-thud-thud-thud-thud-thud-thud-thud-thud-thud-thud.
-thud-thud-thud-thud-thud-thud-thud-thud-thud-thud-thud-thud.
Inside, the creature seems to be struggling hard to get out, but the more it does, the more the coffin is held together by the blood it’s shedding.
In fact, it’s not easy for a creature made of blood to get out once it’s in there.
Finally the coffin stopped, and a huge amount of blood began to pour out from the bottom at the same time.
“Did you kill it?”
My father asks, seemingly unperturbed by the scene, even though it’s straight out of a horror movie.
“I wouldn’t have killed him so easily, he left a scar on my daughter.”
Chiiiiiit──
With a gurgling sound, something bloodied and unrecognizable fell to the ground from beneath the coffin that slowly began to open.
“It’s still breathing. I’ve certainly drained the blood out of him but he seems to be okay.”
This is the first I’ve seen of this…….
I had no idea that draining all the blood tainted by the seeds would restore the person to normal.
I knew that if you take their HP to an extreme, like catching a Pokémon, there’s a chance they’ll come back, but I’ve never seen it done by literally draining the blood itself like that……and forcing it.
Those are some scary fathers, man.
“Peak.”
At father’s call, Peak appears with a bang and a black light spreading around her.
“Yes, yes, you called for Peak~!”
“Do you think this is a joke?”
“……Sorry.”
Even she, who has been playful in any situation up until now, didn’t expect us to get caught up in this, and at my father’s words, she bowed her head and knelt down in the air.
“Since you’re in charge of the expenses for this event, I’m sure you’ve arranged a reward for this, right?”
“Yes……Yes, of course.”
No way, he’s going to mix my reward for us with that?
“Dad. Peak didn’t do anything wrong, after all, we were the ones who accepted the request.”
“What do you mean, a ……request?”
A quick glance at Peak’s expression told me she was looking at me in disbelief.
Whatever. This is why I said no fairies.
They try to honor their contracts, but they’re always looking out for themselves somehow…….
Seriously, they’re plastic.
“It’s all right, really,” I said, “I’m just glad we’re all not too badly hurt.”
As I say that with the face of a good kid, my father and Dwight Rodman look at Peak from both sides.
“Well, that would be a different story. I assume you have both a reward for the kids and an apology ready to go?”
“Calm down? My daughter’s face is hurt right now, calm down? I’ve always been curious about the taste of fairy blood, and this is my chance to try it.”
“Hiiiiii!!!”
Caught in the middle of the powerhouses of the century, Peak slowly backed away, helpless.
“Junior, junior.”
I hear a whisper from the side and turn to see Julie, whose wounds are now healed, looking in my direction and smiling.
“Leaving it to our parents is better than I thought.”
“Isn’t it?”
They’re the most supportive people in the world.
* * *
After I and Julie were rescued Peak gave us two things: a reward for the favor and a reward for the apology.
In the process, Peak cries and tries to convince us that she knows what she’s doing, but…….
My father and Mr. Dwight Rodman are standing there with their eyes wide open.
And Faust, who was also in charge of the event, examined me and Julie for further injuries, and sent us compensation, promising that it would never happen again.
The result.
“A gift from a fairy, you have obtained something precious, master.”
“Indeed.”
Two boxes, each as tall as my head, were stacked on the table.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmParnello stood by my side and I wondered what he’d been doing all this time, but he told me that he’d been watching at father’s behest.
“He said, ‘I’ll do it myself,’ or something like that.”
As a result, I was happy to see my father’s strength in action but I had a nagging question.
“Hey, Parnello. I have a question.”
“Yes. Anything I know, I’ll do my best to answer.”
“How did father know I was trapped in a cage?”
That’s the question I’ve been asking myself ever since.
Gary Frances coven is an illusionary coven that prevents the outside world from knowing what’s going on.
How did he know that, given that it was a spell with settings that made it almost impossible for outsiders to know?
“Oh, that’s what you mean.”
Hearing my question, Parnello covers his mouth with his fist and smirks.
“To tell you the truth, I didn’t even notice……until all of a sudden Don said, ‘Eugene is acting strange.'”
“……Huh, that’s it?”
“Yeah. He’s off in the distance, talking to the others with Julie Rodman. Don thought that was weird, so he went straight over there.”
Of course, I went straight into survival mode when I saw my father’s strange movements from inside…….
Again, it didn’t make sense in my head but somehow it did, in my heart.
“Because he’s your parent.”
“Yeah. It must be because they are parents.”
Maybe it was easier for parents to tell their sons from their hallucinations than they thought.
“And Dwight Rodman, that man, did your father call him?”
But Parnello shook his head.
“He turned in the direction of the accident almost at the same time as Don. “There’s no way my daughter would smile like that, talking to a man she doesn’t know. There’s no way she’s going to put her arms around him.” Honestly, it was a little scary to watch.”
……Isn’t that insanity?
No. And why? You’d think someone of Julie’s caliber would do that often, even as a joke.
Above all.
“That’s surprising. She told me that her father thinks of her as a tool for the family.”
Parnello laughs, “Hahaha!” at my words.
“Certainly, a father with a son and a father with a daughter might think differently. How about this, Miss Jiyun has a boyfriend──.”
“──I should kill him.”
“No, she has a boyfriend, and he’s capable and handsome──”
“I should kill him.”
Oh, though I’ll be the first to take care of that, should a boy approach her.
As he smiles wryly, Parnello feels alive for the first time in a long time.
Poor thing, Jiyun’s future boyfriend.
“Well, let’s go check out the gifts, shall we?”
The event was coming to a close and judging by the weight of the box, it’s not that big of a deal, so I decided to open it here.
The first thing I checked was the box that Peak handed over to us as a reward for our task.
With excitement and anticipation, I slowly unpacked the box and opened the lid.
……Huh?
It’s there!
