Chapter 149 King of the Desert

Bright Child, the head of the border guard, was circling the post as usual, encouraging the soldiers.

“Are there any special days?”

“Yes, there is no sandstorm.”

“So I’m a bit anxious.”

Bright thumped the anxious soldier’s back.

“Such anxiety rather leads to accidents. Don’t be too nervous and report anything unusual.”

“Yes, I understand.”

“By the way, what would have happened to Count Yu Seo-jun?”

When Bright was worried about Yoo Seo-jun, the soldier next to him said.

“If it was his skill, we all saw it, right? no way Is something going to happen to someone like that?”

“You still don’t know. It’s a human thing, it doesn’t just flow that easily.”

It was then.

A soldier on top of the watchtower rang a bell and shouted.

“A large horde is approaching ahead!”

“Captain Bright!”

Hearing that cry, the soldier who checked ahead called out to Bright.

A large-scale shadow appeared as a huge cloud of sand was created in front of them.

“hmm! I’m watching too. All crews, prepare for battle and await my orders! No attack is allowed until the identity is confirmed!”

“yes! All right!”

The soldiers moved in perfect order and prepared for battle.

Archers stood on top of the watchtowers, and foot soldiers stood in front of the gates with spears, swords, and shields.

Standing on top of the castle wall, Bright concentrated on learning the identity of the shadow.

Wow!

And soon there was a shadow coming through the dust with a scream.

The identity of the shadow that broke through the dust first was a carriage.

And behind them, knights in black armor riding on Anemos, a flying bird, appeared.

“It’s the Eastern Black Wind Unit!”

One of the soldiers recognized the Black Wind unit and shouted.

Since they were border guards, they knew about the Black Wind Unit.

“Captain! Look over there!”

And then, another group appeared after them.

Seeing where the soldier pointed, Bright couldn’t believe his eyes.

“Yu, Count Yoo Seo-jun?”

It was definitely Count Yoo Seo-jun.

However, there were half-man, half-beasts around him.

Last time, he summoned a large number of monsters to fight, so what did he do again this time?

“What should I do?”

It was a complicated situation in which enemies and allies were mixed.

Bright turned his head violently at the soldier’s question.

‘The black wind troops from the east are running this way as if escorting a wagon, and behind them are Count Yu Seo-jun and half-man half-beasts.’

Looking at this situation alone, Count Yu Seo-jun did not go to the east with a good meaning, so we had to see that he was driving a major figure in the east to us, but the sense of jjambab that was rolled on the front line did not allow it.

‘No, there’s something else.’

There was still plenty of room in the distance, so Bright silently watched the situation ahead.

Seeing that he did not move, the other soldiers also looked forward tensely.

And soon the truth was revealed to them all.

Wow!

The identity of the monstrous voice that had been ringing from earlier had been revealed.

‘Four, four, king of the desert?!’

Strong legs and a rich mane.

Sharp fangs and wide open mouth.

A body the size of a castle.

A whip-like tail that would tear the whole body apart with one hit.

The giant lion was called the king of the desert in the desert.

‘It’s a monster that rarely appears?’

He was the king of lions and at the top of the food chain in the desert.

That’s why other lions hunted and usually kept quiet in their habitat deep in the desert.

Such a bastard was now crying in front of the border of the empire.

And Count Yoo Seo-Jun’s attack was directed at him, not the carriage.

“Not Easterners! Attack the King of the Desert!”

Bright knew the real reason Yoo Seo-joon went to the east.

If there is a misunderstanding, he will reconcile with the empire, and if not, he will fight and come back.

However, just looking at her current appearance, she belonged to the former.

If the Black Wind troops were protecting the wagon like death, it might be the King of the Eastern Union, Capitel.

At Bright’s command, who had deduced that far, the soldiers drew their bows and aimed at the huge target.

“Shoot!”

Patter!

Then, at Bright’s command, hundreds of arrows were fired at once.

‘Even if that’s not the case, I’ll try to save people first.’

That was Bright’s idea.

*

Wedge liquid!

“An arrow! Protect the wagon!”

Hundreds of arrows were fired from the approaching walls, and Hassen raised his shield.

The soldiers around the carriage also raised their shields and tried to defend the carriage.

“huh?”

However, nothing happened.

Rather, the arrows were attacking the king of the desert, a huge lion chasing him across the sky.

Wow!

When the arrows struck, the king of the desert howled as if he were bothered by the thorns and swung his huge paws.

“Hee!”

The scorpion tribe chief right below him quickly avoided his seat.

bang!

The sandy ground caved in and sand splashed in all directions.

The scorpion chief stabbed the king of the desert with his scorpion tail, which had transformed into a half-man, half-beast.

“Our tribe is more confident than anyone else when it comes to poison.”

“I don’t think that’s what a poisoned person would say!”

From noble mtl dot com

Next to it, the bear chief in the shape of a giant bear passed by and walked away.

As it is, he cast a torso slam into the foreleg of the king of the desert.

bang!

If it was a normal person, the force would have crushed all of his bones and he would have died instantly.

But to the king of the desert, it was only about someone hitting him with a big fist.

Krrr.

The King of the Desert lowered his head and bared his teeth at the two tribal chiefs.

And then, a huge rock flew right in his face.

It was a rock the size of the king of the desert.

puck!

“after! It’s really hard to tame. King of the Desert! You still have no intention of signing a contract!”

The person who threw the rock was Yoo Seo-jun.

He was riding on the head of the King of the Desert and clutching his mane.

*

After receiving the virus-fighting message, we had to fight a relentless battle in the desert.

It happened because of me, so I tried not to damage it, but the system sent more monsters than our troops.

When I took out monster summons and dealt with them, I sent an increased number accordingly.

Then the one who appeared was the lion whose mane I was holding.

This guy never got tired no matter how much we attacked him.

So we put the Black Wind Troops and wagons first, and then the tribal chiefs and I changed our formation to block them.

[Contract Failed]

[Contract Failed]

I was fascinated by his size and strength and tried to make him a pet, but I was fed up with his repeated failures.

It was because it seemed like it would be a waste to die after a big attack.

“After all, you have to faint, right? Are you going to admit that?”

When I asked him that, pulling his mane, he just howled and shook his head vigorously.

“Wow!”

“hey! Count Yoo Seo-jun! What did you eat wrong for lunch! Why are you trying to talk to him?! You don’t have the ability to communicate with nature like we do, do you?”

While I was hanging on to the lion’s mane, I heard the words of the chief of the bear tribe vaguely from below.

Did they say that going through danger together makes them friends?

Maybe it was because we left our backs on each other, and while we were passing through the desert, the Easterners and I became very close.

“I’m not in the mood to play around right now! help me!”

“That’s because he’s so big! My poison has penetrated, so I will collapse soon!”

The voice of the scorpion chief could also be heard.

He waved his scorpion tail and smiled confidently.

for a moment? poison?

I grabbed the mane of the guy who had stopped shaking his head and looked into his eyes.

The clouded eyes seemed to lose their strength as the poison spread.

“Huh, stop sleeping now.”

This time, it was time to end the summons contract if it didn’t succeed.

Because the walls of the border guards are starting to come into view.

Judging from the path the arrow flew earlier, it seemed that Bright was properly grasping the situation.

I focused and concentrated the elements of earth and darkness into my fists.

Great!

Knock!

My hand had become a huge stone fist before I knew it.

I threw back my stone fist, which was made hard by mixing the elements of darkness, and jumped high.

“Let’s see if he doesn’t faint!”

As I fell, I added speed with the element of wind, and just in time, I thrust a stone fist into the crown of the king of the desert.

Boom!

I felt a vibration in my hand along with the sound.

It seemed like the right blow.

Khuong!

The king of the desert began to fall to the ground with spittle spattering from his huge mouth.

thud!

I jumped off his head and landed on the ground, exhaling a heavy breath and placing my hand on the fainting lion’s head.

“Now, should I listen carefully?”

[Contract Success!]

yes!

[The summoner’s condition is at stake.]

Well, that was simple.

“Scorpion chief, do you have an antidote?”

“antidote? Why are you looking for that?”

“Heal this guy. It’s my summon now.”

As I spoke as I stroked the fallen man’s huge face, the scorpion chief gave a tired look.

“I’ve seen you do this for days, but you’re really consistent.”

Then, the chief of the scorpion tribe presented an antidote.

I threw it whole into the lion’s gaping mouth.

sniff! Phew woo woo

The sound of breathing was no joke as it was large.

As soon as we unsummoned the sleeping guy with a calm expression, he disappeared in front of us.

“Where did you go?”

“They usually send them back to their original habitat.”

When I told him what I knew, he returned to his human form.

“Then is it your turn to deal with them?”

“No way, they’re not attacking us right away, are they?”

The bear chief also returned to his human form and stood beside him.

Ahead of us was Bright, leading the way, approaching with his troops.

It was purely my idea that Bright was good at grasping the situation.

I was also nervous because I didn’t know his exact intentions.

“Count Yoo Seo-jun!”

Soon, Bright’s very welcoming voice was heard.

And when I saw his wide smile, I was able to let go of my tension.

“Are you okay? Seeing that you are with the Easterners, it must have worked out!”

“Yes, so we came together. You can now clear up misunderstandings with the Empire. These are the tribal chiefs of the East.”

“Nice to meet you. I am Bright Child, the chief of the Eastern Region Border Guard.”

So we were able to reach the borders of the Empire.

*

With Bright’s help, we decided to take a break inside the border guards.

Everyone relaxed and relieved fatigue because it was a long time to properly rest.

“The desert is definitely tough, right?”

“Yes, the monsters constantly attacked.”

When everyone was resting, I stopped by Bright’s barracks.

It was to get in touch with Penzaric.

Together, we waited in front of the orb for Penzaric’s response.

Pod!

Soon, the figure of Penzarik appeared in the crystal ball and connected with him.

[Is this Seojun?]

“Yes, the misunderstanding with Dongbu has been resolved. We have arrived at the border guard now.”

[It was a misunderstanding, at least it’s fortunate. Illia and Killian will collapse, but… … .]

Ilia and Killian were the ones who uncovered the infiltration of Easterners into the village.

When it turns out that it was an incident stemming from a misunderstanding, their appearances were drawn.

[Wait, did Capitel come with you?]

Penzarik, who was worried about them, asked if he had accompanied Capitel.

“Capitel and some tribal chiefs came together. The Black Wind Squad was also attached as an escort.”

[hehehe, Grandma Capitel, it’s been a while.]

After saying that, Penzaric cleared his throat and said.

[Then, I will also tell His Majesty the news.]

“Yes, did the Earth personnel arrive safely?”

It should have arrived by now.

I was worried and missed because I had no way to contact the people on Earth.

Minyoung must be worried about me too because of that personality.

[It arrived well. We are training together.]

I’m glad you arrived well.

I smiled at the thought of seeing my friends again.

[Oh, and Charleigh is back too.]

“Master said that training was over, too.”

Charleigh said he had to go break the wall and started in the opposite direction from the mountain range.

[I came as a monster. Jeop, then come to the capital carefully.]

“Yes, I’ll see you in the capital.”

The fact that the best sword master in the empire has become even more monstrous is enough to satisfy Penzaric’s appetite.

He had yet to hit the wall of the 9th circle.

On the other hand, I, as a disciple, caught up with Penzaric at an abnormal speed, so I was upset.

‘When I go back, I’ll have to tell Penzaric about the elements of mana and what I’ve been through.’

Enlightenment is not about being forced to realize.

In case you didn’t know

While talking about that, I might be able to cross the wall together.

I cut off contact with Sujeong-gu with high expectations.

“I… … Count Yoo Seo-jun.”

At that time, Bright cautiously called me to see if he had anything to say.
