Episode 37: End of war.

Inferno is glaring at me with an expression of rage like never before.

As expected, enlisting Bishop was the best choice to provoke Inferno.

Inferno’s forehead, which is becoming more distorted in real time, testifies that my choice was correct.

“..This bastard.”

A white flame rises from Inferno’s entire body.

A fire that never goes out.

The demon’s fire raises the body.

But.

The fire that had been burning white faded and returned to its original color, red.

And the fire returned to red within.

Pick.

It turned off in an instant.

“..What?”

Inferno looked down at his right arm, which was no longer burning, as if he was momentarily taken aback.

It’s embarrassing.

Because the fire absorbed by Inferno can be regenerated at any time.

And this is probably the second time the flames have died out from his hands.

“I’m sorry, but incendiary bombs are not fire.”

I pointed his right arm at Inferno.

White phosphorus does not emit flames directly like other explosives.

All it does is use the high-temperature heat and fire generated by the chemical reaction of yellow phosphorus in the surrounding air and white phosphorus.

It’s not a special fire at all.

So, of course, over time, yellow phosphorus will be completely burned, and the effect of absorbing white phosphorus will quickly disappear due to Inferno’s special body structure.

In addition, as yellow phosphorus and oxygen burned, yellow phosphorus burned a large amount of oxygen, and other gases took the place where oxygen used to be.

This means that the Inferno has run out of enough oxygen to start a fire.

Will I put such a devastating weapon into the hands of an enemy who will soon fight me mad?

My right hand overflows with greed and stretches.

It multiplies a black wriggling body and completely covers my right arm.

“This bastard…!”

Gamma, noticing that the boss’s abilities had gone awry, tried to stomp him.

Beta tried to perform a suggestive motion to hypnotize me.

Alpha tried to lay his hand on me.

But.

Unfortunately, the speed is much faster than greed.

In an instant, four small holes were pierced through the body of the greedy body.

Inside the tiny hole, something was compressed with high pressure and was ready to be spit out.

“Spit it out!”

Greed immediately responded to my command.

Water condensed under high pressure.

Now the dead first water jets are shooting out.

Fortunately, he absorbed a large amount of water during the fight with the first.

“Kuuk!”

“Kyaaah?!”

“Keah..!”

“Kuh…!”

The water jets fired sharply and hit four butchers.

At the same time, the four butchers who were thrown out after being hit by the high-pressure water rolled on the floor.

I put my hand in my chest.

The life that had been holding its breath in my inner pocket came out in my hand.

The splendid wings of life unfold.

“Please, Xiao.”

I threw a butterfly into the air.

At the same time, the positions of Nabi and Xiao were reversed.

“I will serve you.”

Xiao, who appeared in my field of vision, gripped the spear vigorously.

I crouched down.

Then it’s like a flower blooming.

Like a seed that has been buried in the ground for a long time germinates.

A butterfly bloomed on Xiao’s back.

One.

Two.

Three.

From noble mtl dot com

The butterflies that started blooming once continued to bloom on Xiao’s back.

Dozens.

Hundreds.

Thousands.

Butterflies bloom enough to completely block everyone’s view.

The beautiful wings of butterflies embroider the air.

Flutter. Flutter.

Butterflies started flapping their wings to fly through the air.

A storm of butterflies rages.

“..What is this..?”

Even Gamma, who came to her senses for a moment, stared at this absurd scene in awe.

Butterflies have meant ephemeral dreams and illusions since ancient times.

Butterfly Dream.

Jang Ju-mong.

Is the butterfly me?

Am I a butterfly?

Fleeting dreams and illusions are overlaid on reality.

The storm of butterflies rises gradually.

People lose their eyes to that illusion.

“…Ah…Ah…”

I hear someone moaning.

I turned my gaze to where the sound came from.

Xiao, who was staggering and trying not to close his eyes, came into view.

Butterflies mean dreams.

Is that why?

The side effect of Xiao’s ability is deep sleep.

To have a deep dream from which you will never wake up.

Xiao is struggling to overcome this side effect.

To avoid falling asleep.

“…..”

I slowly approached Xiao.

The staggering Xiao’s alertness was at its maximum.

I crept up and helped Xiao.

“..Lord…”

Xiao staggered and leaned against me.

“Don’t worry.”

I reassured Xiao.

“I won’t sleep that long this time.”

One of the reasons Xiao is afraid of this side effect is.

Because it is a very deep and long sleep.

“I’ll wake you up when it’s time. Do you believe me?”

At my words, Xiao finally smiled in relief.

“I believe…”

Xiao finally closed his eyes comfortably and fell into a deep sleep.

Let Xiao fall asleep.

A huge amount of something began to ooze out of Xiao’s body.

“..This…Is…What…”

Alpha, Beta, and Gamma, who were approaching through the butterflies, stumbled and tried not to close their eyes as they were directly exposed to this something.

Like a sleepy child.

Staggering, he glared at me with eyes that hardly opened.

Another reason Xiao fears this side effect.

This side effect does not only affect Xiao.

When Xiao falls asleep, something that comes out causes the brains of people around Xiao to secrete a large amount of melatonin.

Melatonin, aka sleep hormone.

It is difficult even for villains to beat this melatonin as long as they have human bodies.

“..Gee…f*ck…”

First, Gamma was the first to be defeated by drowsiness.

Beta and Alpha followed one after another.

I looked at them for a while, then carefully put Xiao on her back and moved her steps.

Dubuck. Tboob.

Let’s break through the butterflies.

“Keep… Ugh…”

I saw Inferno raising his body against the melatonin.

“You… You bastard…”

..Awesome guy.

As expected, this is the boss of Butcher.

..My vision is blurred.

Of course, I am not immune to this side effect.

Just…

I reached into my bosom and pulled out a can of coffee.

Chic.

The can was opened with a cool sound.

Gulp. Gulp.

Caffeine, a antagonist and stimulant of melatonin, was replenished in my body.

“Sure.”

After one shot of canned coffee, I looked at Inferno and said.

“Shouldn’t have saved up some caffeine.”

Kang. Cacan.

I threw out the can of coffee casually and slowly approached Inferno.

“…I will kill you…!”

Flame burns from the hand of Inferno who wrote evil while looking at me.

Is oxygen supplemented? It’s faster than you think.

The flames that began to burn aimed at me and condensed.

The condensed flames shook ominously, perhaps reflecting his drowsy state, but a fair amount of flames still gathered at his fingertips.

“Kill…Throw away…”

Inferno’s fingertips aimed at me.

I said, still keeping a smile on my face.

“You can’t use your abilities anymore.”

As soon as I finish speaking.

Took. Tutuk.

A drop or two of rain fell from the sky.

Inferno raised his head without realizing it.

“Shoot aaa…”

The sky, which had been clear a while ago, started pouring rain as if there were holes in it.

“Do you… Even control the weather…”

Fish food.

The fire gathered at Inferno’s fingertips was extinguished by the heavy rain.

“..You…What the hell…What are you..”

I smiled at his question.

“No big deal.”

I was still smiling in the pouring rain.

“I did some contracts and hacks.”

********

“… Haein, get ready. The signal is here.”

Crow was observing somewhere and looked urgently at the Seohaein and said.

“Ah, yes sister!”

Seo Hae-in, who had been sitting quietly and tapping on his computer, stood up and approached Crow.

“Ugh… Will my brother do what he said? It’s my first time hacking like this…”

“..Let’s trust the boss.”

I took out the black contract that Crow had written in advance.

“Perform the contract.”

When the contract was shaken, the contract turned into powder and wrapped around Seo Hae-in’s body.

“..Whoop. Let’s do it!”

Seo Hae-in’s hands are lifted up as she puts her energy into her heart.

The West Sea man’s hands were facing the sky.

Soon, the two hands of the sky and the people of the West Sea were connected.

Hacking.

Hacking by Seohae people is different from ordinary hacking.

Hacking creatures to get information, overwriting false information and remodeling them to their liking.

This is the true ability of Seohae people.

By hacking the phenomenon.

Manipulate reality.

“Uh..Ugh..”

The sky, the weather, and her reality are hacked and played by her.

The lofty beings who are absolute and do not allow human access are trampled and made fun of by a single human being.

The clear sky is turning dark.

Black dark clouds are gathering.

“aaa…!”

Took. Tutuk.

Raindrops are pouring down.

A single human changed the weather and reality.

“Ah…!”

Jurruk.

Due to the excessive use of abilities, the weariness of Seohae people has reached its limit.

Soon, Seo Hae-in collapsed, spilling her nosebleeds.

“..Good work, Haein.”

Crow caught Seo Hae-in falling down and took out her umbrella.

I looked at the place where the butterfly rose.

“I’ll leave the rest to you. Boss.”

*******

“..Damn…Damn…Damn..”

Inferno tried several times to start a fire, but his wet hands were unable to do so.

A powerful ability like Inferno has side effects, of course.

However, it is not the kind of side effect that immediately reveals side effects when using the ability.

It’s just that there are restrictions on the use of the ability.

One of Inferno’s limitations is that it cannot be used without enough oxygen, as before.

And the second…

“Damn…Zen…aaa…!”

The ability cannot be used while wet.

This side effect is also one of the reasons why he was defeated in the fight against the first ones.

Chalbak. Snap.

I slowly approached Inferno.

“Damn it…Don’t come!”

Infernos with no abilities are just beings whose bodies are stronger than normal people.

Not threatening at all.

Chalbak. Snap.

I continued walking.

In my right hand, greed began to overflow in anticipation of the prey I was about to devour.

“Damn it…!”

Inferno, which continued to backtrack, finally fell backwards.

“…..”

I looked down at him quietly.

Inferno.

The most vicious and cruel boss among Butcher’s bosses who kidnapped and killed countless people.

..Maybe it was because of that guy’s karma that I fell into this world.

This guy in the original work continued his activities without any punishment.

I raised my right hand.

“Zenzaaa!!!!”

Inferno yells.

I heard the shout and swung his right arm.

The greed that burst out began to devour his whole body.

As painfully as possible.

As slowly as possible.

The pain is so great that you probably want to scream.

But you don’t even deserve to scream in pain.

Greed shut his mouth.

In this way, Inferno was slowly eaten away from the legs by greed.

Shoot aaa.

It’s raining.

I looked up at the sky.

The rain hit my face.

Somehow, I felt relieved.

Finally, the first button of my plan was put in place.

From noble mtl dot com

“..The Second Back Alley War.”

I looked down at Inferno as it was being eaten.

“The war ends here.”
