Chapter 179: Chapter 178. The Power of the Hero (2)

Chapter 178. The Power of the Hero (2)

I immediately came back to Earth. I knew where Yua was. I rushed to her in my armor.

“Sharana!”

[Yes, Master!]

After infusing Sharana into my body, I even used Talaria. Then, I used Divine Speed and was able to reach Walker in just 1 minute 13 seconds.

In an area strangely silent and deserted, insect type monsters were flying toward Walker. It was undoubtedly Luca Bruno’s doing. In Walker’s arms, I could see Yua struggling to free herself.

“Let me go! Let me go now!”

“Kuk, calm down, Kang Yua! Your oppa is here!”

“Ah, Oppa! Oppa, say something to him! I have to go meet someone now!”

First, I used Peika’s ability to scorch the surrounding monsters, then calmly received Yua from Walker. I could see something condensed in her eyes. Her cheeks were flushed red and her eyes were out of focus. It was the typical charmed status.

“Let me go, Oppa! I would be troubled if I can’t meet him!”

“Yua, calm down first.”

“I hate Oppa! You don’t even know how I feel! …Eh?”

Yua’s expression distorted as if she was agonizing over something.

“I, I… Oppa… but that person… uuu…”

She was in conflict because of me even while she was charmed? Touched, I wanted to hug her and rub my cheek against hers but now wasn’t the time. I took a deep breath and shouted.

“Yua, snap out of it!”

[You used Orc Lord’s Warcry! All party members are cleansed of negative status effects. All party members’ attack power increases by 50 percent for the duration. All party members become super-armored, unfazed by enemy attacks.]

In an instant, Yua’s eyes became focused again.

“… Eh?”

She looked extremely confused. She touched her cheeks, knocked on her head a few times, then realizing that she was in my embrace, she blushed.

“Oppa, what’s going on…?”

“Sorry, Yua. I dragged you into my problem.”

“N-No, I’m fine. Did I trouble Oppa? I-It’s bad if I did…”

“You didn’t, so don’t worry. Are you okay, now?”

“Y-Yes. It was really strange. I suddenly really liked someone I saw for the first time to the point I couldn’t control myself… It was too strange. Then, Walker ajusshi grabbed me and… If it wasn’t for him…”

I put Yua down and dusted her off a couple times. Then, I bowed to Walker.

“Walker, thanks.”

“I just did what you told me to do. I’m just doing my job.”

“Still, it’s thanks to you that Yua is safe. Thank you, really. I won’t forget this debt even if I die.”

“… Hmph, as long as you know.”

“Sorry, but can you continue protecting Yua right now? I have something to do.”

“… Interesting. Of course, I’ll protect your sister wholeheartedly. Go wild.”

I patted Yua’s head one more time, then opened my visor to reveal my eyes. Then, I stared at the insects that were still flying toward me. After meeting my eyes, the insects all turned to stone and fell to the ground. Countless thuds rang out as if there was a hail.

“You’re no human…!”

“This is Oppa’s…!”

The insects turned to stone the moment they got in my range. Unless there was a healer who possessed mana that surpassed mine, it would be impossible to cancel my ability. Hundreds, then thousands of rock sculptures piled up around us. Then, I lightly waved my hand, creating a tornado with Mad Typhoon. With Sharana’s power amplifying the tornado, I shredded the sculptures into tiny pieces.

In just a moment, all the monsters disappeared. I made a light sigh and pulled my visor back down. I then turned around to Yua and Walker and spoke.

“Then I’ll be off.”

“Oppa, can I go with you? I want to see Oppa teaching him a lesson! I can’t forgive myself for being unable to choose between Oppa and that person!”

It seemed Yua wanted a closure for herself as well. I looked at Walker. He shrugged and remarked.

“I was also vexed because I could only run away. I want to see how he’ll react when he sees you.”

“Alright, then let’s go together. Peika, materialize!”

[I’ve been waiting!]

Peika materialized in mid-air as a dragon. When I put Yua and Walker on her back, Yua cheered.

“How beautiful… Oppa is amazing! Do all dungeon explorers have something like this?”

“Sorry to break your fantasy, but it’s your Oppa that’s special.”

I put a Mana Potion in my mouth and ordered Peika to fly. Peika soared into the air, and civilians who saw her from the streets screamed.

“Kang Shin, your sister’s face isn’t hidden.”

“It’s fine. They already found out anyways. We’ll be more open from now on. I don’t plan on hiding anymore. There’s no reason to either.”

I doubt Luca Bruno came all the way to Korea, saw Yua for the first time, and charmed her because he was mesmerized by her. He undoubtedly approached her knowing that she was my sister. In that case, there was no longer a need to hide my identity. There was only one thing I needed to do.

That was to show what would happen if they bothered me.

“Peika, full speed. Follow Luca Bruno’s mana.”

[Got it!]

Peika shot forward like lightning. He wasn’t far from here. He had even used some ability to prevent people from approaching her. He must have thought that Walker was stronger than him in a direct fight and planned on chasing him away before he acquired Yua.

Acquire Yua and… acquire… Ha… Hahaha…

“Found you.”

Peika shot down like an arrow. The people around us screamed and scattered. Meanwhile, I grabbed a man who was running away like the others by the nape of his neck. He looked at me with a flustered expression. As expected, he had disguised himself rather thoroughly. However, he couldn’t hide his mana.

“It’s been a while, Luca Bruno.”

“What are you two doing!? I’m not such a per…!”

I threw him on the ground face down. Immediately, tiny monsters that were stuck on his body flooded toward me to counterattack then became petrified and fell. I grabbed his face and jumped down Peika’s back. People gathered around us, murmuring.

“What’s happening?”

“A dragon? Is that a dragon?”

“Wait, isn’t that Dragon Knight?”

“The dragon he’s riding changed! It must be an Asian version!”

“I’m just an American touring Kore… Kuk!”

Grabbing his face, on one hand, I poured mana in my foot and kicked him in the face. The mana barrier he had instantly shattered and a few of his teeth flew into the air. The bystanders screamed.

“Dragon Knight is beating up an innocent man!”

“Call the police!”

“Call them for what?”

A second, third, fourth… I wasn’t satisfied with just his face. I threw him down on the ground, raised my foot and slammed it down on his back.

“Kahak!’

“Luca Bruno, this will be my only question, so answer.”

I asked.

“Who told you about my sister?”

“Why are you doing this… to me… Kak!”

Was he still trying to hide his identity? I smirked and brought my spear out. Then, I cut off both of his arms. Yua screamed, but I had no plans to go easy because she was watching. I scorched his severed arms using Peika’s power and swung my spear again to fling the blood off. Next, I placed my spear on his back and said firmly.

“Next is your heart.”

“B-Brightman! It was Brightman! Not just you, but he has the information on everyone in Revival! An organization he is forming without Guardian knowing is… Kuhuk!”

I smacked his back with my spear shaft. Then, I asked again.

“You sure it wasn’t Guardian’s doing?”

“Y-Yes!”

“Organization name, members, tell me everything.”

“N-Now? C-Can you heal me first…? M-My arms…!”

I raised my spear. Just when I was about to strike down with it, Luca Bruno shouted desperately.

“I’ll say it! I’ll say it now!”

“Walker, sorry, but can you take out a note?”

“… Sure.”

Walker gnawed on his lips and took out a notepad. While he took down each and every word Luca Bruno was spewing out, he asked.

“Xin who…?”

“Xin Shaomei!”

It was China’s SS ranker. It seemed I’d need to see her face too. The question was whether she would still have her face afterward.

After Luca Bruno finished saying everything, I took my spear back. When I looked around, I saw several police cars around us. An officer who seemed to have a high rank shouted on a megaphone.

“We’re the police!”

“Go back.”

I put mana into my words. The police blocking the road were pushed back by the mana’s pressure. It was the same for the people around us. Although there might have been a better way to go about it, I didn’t want to be bothered by anyone right now.

At the same time, I opened the guild communication channel.

[All members of Revival on Earth, confirm your family’s safety. If something seems off, notify me immediately. I will take care of it within 5 minutes.]

[Don’t worry, Shin. I have Guardian members and familiars protecting everyone’s families. It’s mainly you and I that’s being targeted.]

Hwaya immediately responded. I didn’t think other members’ information would have had their information exposed as well. Brightman, just how much money did you use!? I gritted my teeth.

In any case, I felt grateful to Hwaya for taking care of something I had forgotten about.

[Hwaya, thanks. I only thought about my own family… Damn, I didn’t think other members would be targeted at all. It would have been obvious if I thought about it for a moment!]

[It’s fine, it’s my job to take care of things you don’t have the time to do… So? That got me many points, right? Did you fall for me yet?]

[Yeah, I did… Is your mother okay?]

[… U-Un, she’s fine. Walker messaged everyone as he took Yua. I took care of it before it was too late.]

In the middle of talking to Hwaya, I raised my spear and struck down on the ground once. Ability users that popped out amidst the police force and Luca Bruno who was trying to join them all froze.

[Everyone, stay with your family. I’m going to go take care of an organization called ‘Heroes of Shadow.’ I’ll take you when everything’s over.]

[Shin, I want to go too.]

[M-Me too!]

[No, it’s fine. You don’t have to come with me.]

Sorry, but having you there won’t help me. For now, you guys should focus on increasing your ability through the dungeon.

I swung my spear and shot out a whirlpool, shredding the ability users limbs and Luca Bruno’s leg.

“Kuaaaaak!”

“If there’s anyone else you brought with you, tell them to come out now. I’ll take care of all of you together.”

[… Want help?]

A sluggish voice rang out. It wasn’t from the guild communication channel but from the private messaging system.

[Daisy?]

[Insect extermination must be done… cleanly, leave none behind. Thoroughly. My ability, very useful.]

Daisy’s unexpected offer made me reconsider.

[But Daisy, I don’t want to use your power for something like this. Plus, this is Earth’s—]

[I want to, help. You’re benefactor, friend. Grateful person.]

To be honest, I was thankful for her offer. Like she said, insect extermination had to be done thoroughly. Otherwise, they might reproduce again. I didn’t want to involve her something like this since she had trouble with people, but she sent me another message, [I want to help.] as if to urge me again.

[In that case, I’d be happy to have you. Thanks, I’ll come get you in a bit.]

[Un. I’ll get ready.]

After I finished talking to Daisy, I approached Luca Bruno. He gasped and crawled backward.

“I, I told you about Brightman, so please…!”

“That’s beside the fact.”

I held my spear up and struck down at his ‘place.’ A fountain of blood shot up into the air. Luca Bruno screamed.

“Guaaaaaaaaaaaa!”

“Kuk, just watching it hurts me…!”

“Sorry, but it doesn’t look cleanly cut.”

I struck down once again, and again, and again. Just in case, I used Mad Typhoon to shred the area. Only then was I certain that I finished the job.

“Guuuuu…”

“Good, perfect. With this, it wouldn’t matter even if you seduced women.”

“Ah, my oppa is too cool…”

“Cool!? Cool!? Hey, Kang Shin! Your sister is still weird! She’s not normal!”

It was then that a white ball of light appeared above Luca Bruno’s forehead. I didn’t feel any hostility from it, so it wasn’t an attack. I tilted my head and reached out toward it. The moment my hand touched it, a message rang out in my head.

[Would you like to use the Hero’s authority to retrieve the ability given to Luca Bruno?]

Author’s note:

Would a Hero be unable to do what Ciara can…? (faraway look)

I’m sure everyone knows Shin’s personality by now, but once he sets his mind to something, he gets it done. He doesn’t know when to stop. Though it may be a little cruel, now is the time to get used to it! (Eh?)

PS – Yua’s fans, you waited for a long time! It is her turn!

PS2 – Hwaya’s wife-power is nothing to scoff at as well…
