Chapter 72: Ruffians
Struck by Shion’s iron fist, Iva’s back slammed into the hard ground, making it difficult for her to even breathe for a while.
Her fists were broken, her nose was crooked and her muscles were warped. This made her face look much different.
The expression on Iva’s face as she stood up, her body shaking, was not full of fear, …… She seemed to be happy as if she had been rewarded.
“Oh, my God, this is so great. I can’t believe this is happening!”
“Are you on drugs……?”
As expected, Shion was a little taken back by Iva’s excitement. She didn’t seem to be using any drugs to numb the pain, and she just seemed to be happy.
“Not my problem though. I need you to spit out where the Brainwash Hero is”
“……… hup!”
Suddenly, Iva attacks with her unbroken hand, making the whip of her weapon ripple. She seems to be very skilled at this and accurately aims at the side of the opponent’s head.
So Shion lifted his sword and twirled the whip around the blade.
He is very familiar with this situation and usually, the whip user takes advantage of them here to entangle the weapon.
However, this time, Shion was not careless, and because of the difference in arm strength, it developed into a tug-of-war, and eventually, Iva was pulled in.
When Zion’s heavy fist exploded in her stomach, Iva collapsed and stopped moving.
“You’re laughing till the end. You guys are weird, like that guy from earlier”
“…hehehe ahaha ahaheheh”
“What the…!?”
A laugh escaped from her when she was supposed to have fainted, and Shion back-stepped away from her just in case.
With a mouthful of gastric juices and dizziness, Iva’s eyes look enthralled again.
“You should be passed out. Awoke yet?”
“Yep. Full name. tell me your full name”
“……”
“If you don’t tell me, I’ll call you the Black Warrior”
“Your hand, it’s recovering?”
She comfortably put her hands on her cheek and swoon.
This is not the movement of a person with a broken finger. Moreover, if you look closely, you can see that the bridge of his nose, which had been crooked, is now back to normal.
“I wonder if it’s a peculiar constitution. I’ve always had a constitution that gets stronger and stronger when I fall in love with someone… don’t disturb us, you little turd!”
Iva grabbed the arrow that flew at her with a snap.
Her bloodshot eyes turned to Kuna, who had shot it.
“You’re not a good match for the Master at all. You’re a slut with your bosom open for nothing”
‘That’s right-puni! I’ve been so scared of you since earlier! I think I like monsters better’
When Kuna and Punini voiced their disagreement, Iva had a blue streak on her forehead.
“…… Wait for me, darling. Just give me a minute”
“I don’t want to be your darling. And I won’t let you touch those two”
“Whoa, it’s dangerous, darling! Above, above!”
It’s not a trap. Shion also felt a presence from above, and when he checked, he saw that Abarth was descending from above.
He was holding the knife in his backhand, ready to stab him in the brain. Rather than run away, Shion chose to fight back by swinging his sword.
The opponent took the blade with his dagger and smiled, showing his teeth.
“I’ve won”
Shion immediately understood the meaning of the words. In an instant, the scenery in front of him changed. He was no longer in the forest.
He was forced to go far up into the sky, into the azure blue sky.
This was indeed a surprise. He knew from the previous exchanges that it was possible to transfer the person you touched.
However, Shion did not expect that even a touch between weapon and weapon could do that.
“You used the same trick on Haku, didn’t you?”
“This is, you know, a winning pattern for me. If you stay still and beg for your life, I’ll bring you back down to earth”
Their position was several hundred meters above the ground, so they were falling even as they were talking. In the meantime, Shion grabbed Abarth’s clothes.
“Ahahaha, no use. I can control myself at will. I can just go back”
“Oh, I see”
It was no wonder that it was a winning technique. Falling from a height is an effective way to inflict a fatal wound.
“Well, to tell you the truth, I didn’t want to help you. It seems like Iva was about to fall in love with you. Bye”
He seemed to disappear in the blink of an eye and return to the ground.
The fact that he was able to use it so many times in a row, Shion could judge that he had a considerable amount of magic power.
While falling headlong, Shion checked below and found a white creature running through the trees.
“As expected, it’s a good thing that I found my lost power as soon as possible”
While saying this, he took out his [Black Wings] and flew to Haku. This black wing, too, could only produce one wing before he retrieved the stone.
“Haku, I’ll ride on your back”
‘Was that you, Mr. Shion? Please, take as many rides as you like…’
“That guy, Abarth, he just took us up in the air”
‘I was hit by the same technique. I guess he thought he had won, so he disappeared from the sky and didn’t come back’
Shion moved his gaze to see if Haku was injured. Not a scratch. With the hardening of his body hair and the change in attributes, there was nothing to worry about.
“Brainwashing Hero…… You are a troublesome opponent”
‘I guess so. But for now, our priority should be to protect Kuna, Punini, and the village’
“You’re right”
Haku was already fast, but he increased his speed and ran through the forest.
