Chapter 68: 68

It’s not a Long-tailed Phoenix. It was a black, large hand that could not even be considered a human.

The hand grabbed the interpreter’s body with strength.

Crack! The interpreter died with a chilling, unpleasant sound.

“Ugh…..”

A suppressed scream came out.

The Long-tailed Phoenix is ​​not an ordinary monster, it is also called a Holy Beast that deals with the light attribute ether.

However, the box contained that large hands with grotesquely grown nails, and even the dark ether leaked out thickly from it.

At that moment everyone noticed. There is no way that such an ominous thing could be the Holy Beast, the Long-tailed Phoenix.

So … what the hell is that monster?

“Huaagh!”

Swish!

The box was completely smashed and the monster jumped out. With agility that did not match its huge body, the monster began to attack the fleeing humans. Long fingernails and teeth tore the humans to pieces.

“Uu-ugh….”

Jijon’s legs, who were trying to run away, lost their strength. Blood has already poured from the wounds scratched by the monster’s claws. The monster who tore off the man who offered Jijon a cigarette a while ago turned its head towards him.

It’s coming up to his position.

His head is numb, Jijon thought a question as he felt the blood pouring from his body. Was he going to die like this after all?

It’s a death befitting an extra. Had he known that he was going to die here, he would have contacted his mother and sister. He closed his eyes and prepared for death.

Then, someone jumped forward with a sword.

It was Choi Cedric, who was disguised as a bodyguard. Choi Cedric swung his long sword lightly to block the monster’s attack.

Klang!

The monster who lost the power battle took a few steps back.

“Are you okay?”

“Uh, yes, yes….”

“What the hell is this …. hang in there.”

Why is Choi Cedric here?

The appearance of Choi Cedric, who confronted the monster with his sword, was hopelessly cool.

He looked so different from himself, who came to this point by repeatedly making bad choices and was about to die while helping illegal things.

Choi Cedric is strong. Unlike Jijon who could not even set foot in the Hunter’s World, he’s the signature Hunter of C&L, currently ranked second in the Rankings, and an S-class.

A guy like that wouldn’t have anything to worry about, and a guy like him wouldn’t be able to understand.

Rather than being grateful for being saved, the sense of inferiority that he had swallowed raised its head.

“……!”

At that time, the monster who tried to attack Choi Cedric ran away, as if it decided that it was hard to win over him.

“Stay there!”

Choi Cedric tried to chase after the monster, but he stopped when he saw that Jijon’s wound was severe.

The order he received from CEO Lee Sein was to disguise himself as a bodyguard and steal the box that was going to be traded today.

It’s just his own speculation, but she may be thinking of fabricating this event as the work of the White Silver Guild.

“Then the trader who paid for it wouldn’t sit still, what would you do?”
“I don’t care about others.”

It was a strange way of speaking.

For some reason, it felt like she knew they’re going to die by that monster….

According to Lee Sein, he should leave the wounded alone and chase the monster……

The wounds are severe even by the looks of it. At this rate, he’ll die in no time. The hesitation was brief. Choi Cedric gave up his pursuit and approached Jijon.

“Wait a minute. I’ll at least use a potion.”

He searched his inventory and pulled out a high-quality potion at random.

“That’s expensive…….”

“Is the price important now?”

As he poured the potion into the wound, he suddenly saw the injured man’s face. Those stubborn eyes and sulky expression, somehow he’s familiar with it.

“Eh, have we seen each other before?”

“……you’ve got the wrong person.”

Jijon bowed his head obliquely and avoided his gaze. However, Choi Cedric’s gaze was persistent.

“No, I definitely saw you! This guy, you’re lying because you’re afraid to be a criminal. Obviously before, so … Ah.”

Choi Cedric swallowed a sigh. He remembered where he saw Jijon.

In the C&L guild headquarters, in front of the elevator dedicated to the guild members. They belong to the same guild, but why is a Hunter from C&L here?

Didn’t she certainly say that she wouldn’t put the members of their guild in danger?

‘Noona, what on earth … what are you doing behind my back?’

Choi Cedric’s face was contorted.

[Lack of mana due to incomplete summoning.]
[Charge your mana. In case of mana depletion, the body cannot be maintained.]

The black thing protruding from the box ran down the street with its heavy body.

However, the pace was only getting slower.

Its stomach was hot as if it had swallowed a fire, and the desire for destruction rose. It wanted to pour out all its magic and devour the surroundings.

The black energy that enveloped its body gradually weakened. The body, which had run out of mana, was now having a hard time moving.

[※ Caution: Your mana is extremely insufficient.]

Originally, it was in a deep sleep. The sleep waiting for the promised day was comfortable and sweet.

However, the humans forced it to wake up. The humans periodically injected dark ether, disturbed the sleep, and interrupted its dreams.

It wanted to kill all the hateful humans who woke it up.

“Ck….”

Its body refused to move.

[※ Urgent: Activate the body composition system. 1, 5, 10, 20 … Due to the lack of mana, the body composition task cannot be completed. Stop the operation.]
[Enforcement of Mana Saving Mode]
[Compose a temporary body.]

After the black mist that wrapped around it lifted, what was revealed was the figure of a young boy.

The unconscious boy fell to the ground. It was in front of Cafe Rieul.

And at that time, Rieul, who was roasting coffee beans, heard a thump.

“Hey, are you all right?”

When the boy woke up, there was a woman with a puzzled face in front of him. The woman looked at the boy with a worried expression and said,

“You were lying down in front of this place. Are you sick?”

The boy blinked slowly.

He felt a sense of discomfort in his body. His eyes were low enough to require him to look up at the woman, and his limbs were small and slender.

Due to the depletion of mana, it was only possible to create such a small and poor body.

“….Cih.”

The boy moved his eyes and looked around. There was a woman with no sense of crisis in front of him, and the surroundings looked like a cafe.

“Umh, you don’t have a fever….”

The woman reached out and touched the boy’s forehead.

“……!”

It’s unpleasant.

Tak. The boy immediately struck off the hand and tried to kill the woman with his magic. However, it was not possible due to the lack of mana.

[You are using Mana Saving Mode.]
[Annihilation of the target is impossible.]
[It is recommended to adjust to the surroundings for the time being.]
[Downloading Human World Knowledge (Basic). 1, 5, 10, 20, 50 … Completed.]

He’d rather pretend to be a normal kid for now. The boy who had judged that way, muttered in a weak voice.

“It’s not that I’m sick, I’m just dizzy for a second…….”

It was a faint voice and pitiful eyes that aroused sympathy. The woman jumped to her feet.

“I should report it to the police.”

“……No police!”

It was bothersome to get involved with more humans.

“Why? The policeman will take you home.”

“Home … I don’t want to go home.”

The woman nodded slowly as she accepted the words.

“Sit here and wait a minute.”

For a moment, he could hear a rattling sound, and then a white porcelain cup was pushed in front of him.

“……?”

Through the downloaded human world knowledge, he could see that it was called ‘coffee‘, specifically ‘cafe mocha‘.

The liquid in the glass is black. Why are you asking me to drink this? He pushed the cup away, but the woman held it firmly to the boy.

“Your body will warm up. Hurry up and drink it.”

“….Okay.”

It would be better to obey her words here. With a reluctant expression on his face, the boy tilted his cup.

The sweet taste flowed into his mouth first. Then, the heavy taste of espresso, which supports the sweetness, and the savory taste of milk.

It was incredibly delicious.

Not only that…….

“……!”

His mana has been restored.

It’s only a little, but he could feel a little bit of magic power filling in his body. That can’t be true.

The boy took another sip of the cafe mocha. It didn’t come close to the powerful mana he originally had, but he definitely gained power.

The boy hastily emptied the remaining cafe mocha.

“Uh-huh….”

When the boy emptied his cup, the woman glanced over the boy’s head and looked proud.

He didn’t like it.

He didn’t feel any special power from her. Nevertheless, the power of coffee given by this stupid woman was undeniable.

If he recovers his mana, he can kill such a woman in no time. If he can get his original body back, he will wipe out all the humans who woke him up.

To do that, he has to somehow find a way to drink more of this coffee.

“…….”

The boy was lost in thought.
