Chapter 472: Parasite King (4)
[What the…]
The Parasite King’s eyes shook.
Boom, boom.
The monster large enough to squash a mountain with his feet took a step back. His instincts warned him that the being in front of him was dangerous.
[You bastard… Are you… truly human?]
Nothing had changed about the man; in terms of appearance, the enemy was human.
[...]
However, something was different. The Parasite King had devoured countless humans in the process of conquering Huan, but this was the first time he had felt this way. The being in front of him did not feel like a human, but something else wearing human skin.
[He, hehehe,] the Parasite King laughed in a low tone.
He looked down at his trembling body; his instincts were desperately yelling at him to run away from that monster.[How amusing.]
Thrills coursed throughout the Parasite King from facing an incomprehensible enemy. He, who had conquered countless worlds throughout the universe, had never recognized anyone besides himself as a monster. He couldn’t be more delighted from feeling an emotion that he had never felt before.
Slam!
[How very amusing!!] shouted the Parasite King as he forcibly erased the fear taking over him. He raised his giant arm and said, [More, more, more! Make me tremble in fear more!!]
The giant’s arm, several dozen meters long, swung down at Kang-Woo, who looked like a mere fly compared to the Parasite King.
Wham—!!
The enormous impact shook the earth. Kang-Woo was squashed after being flattened by the Parasite King’s fist, but only for a moment. His mangled flesh returned to normal in an instant.
[Kehehe, yes! That’s more like it!]
The Parasite King burst into laughter as he looked down at the instantly-regenerated Kang-Woo. He would not have the being, who had allowed him to feel fear, die so easily.
[I’ve finally found an opponent whom I can go all out against!]
The Parasite King no longer needed to search for Bael. The monster in front of him was the rival that he had been searching for across dimensions.
[Graaaaaaaaaaahhh!]
The Parasite King’s green exoskeleton split as he roared.
Tsssssssss—!
Powerful green acid fell like rain.
“...”
Kang-Woo could smell his flesh burning; his skin was melting away, exposing bone. He charged toward the Parasite King as his body was melting away. He raced through the acid rain and stuck to him.
Crunch!
Kang-Woo opened wide and took a large bite out of the Parasite King.
The Parasite King looked down at a human fistful of his flesh that was bitten off. [Pfft. Bwahahahahahahaha!!!]
He couldn’t contain his laughter. He was hundreds of meters tall, so a mere human fistful of flesh was no different to him than dead skin cells to a human.
[You call that an attack?] asked the Parasite King as he trembled, barely holding in his laughter.
His eyes no longer held any sense of fear; all that remained was a deep sense of mockery aimed at his enemy.
[Hmm. I… may have been mistaken.]
The Parasite King shook his head. He could feel his ecstasy dying after thinking that he had found his match. It was only natural since the only thing that Kang-Woo did after charging at him as his entire body melted was to take a single bite out of him.
[Hehehe,] the Parasite King giggled.
His excitement had completely disappeared but he did not feel bad for some reason. He was more relieved than disappointed that his enemy turned out to be nothing much.
Crunch.
Just then, Kang-Woo took another bite out of the Parasite King.
[Kahahahaha! You still haven’t given up yet?!]
The Parasite King burst into laughter again. Considering his size, the mere bite of a human was more insignificant than fearful.
[An adorable struggle, my rival— no, pathetic human.] He changed the way that he addressed Kang-Woo. [Did you not tell me earlier that you would make me feel fear until I was sick of it? Is this the fear you were referring to? Hm? Kehehe. What to do? I don’t feel a shred of fear.]
The Parasite King laughed at Kang-Woo.
Crunch.
Kang-Woo took yet another bite out of the Parasite King.
[Hmm.] The Parasite King frowned slightly; something was off about the bites. [They’re not regenerating.]
The regenerative capabilities of the Parasites were beyond compare, and those of the king transcended even that. He would still regenerate fully in an instant even if he were to be torn to microscopic bits. However, the bites that the human took out of him were not regenerating.
[How annoying.]
Even if it was insignificant, it was not like it didn’t hurt. The Parasite King’s irritation grew as the minuscule amount of pain lingered.
[Die, pathetic human.]
The Parasite King raised his giant arm and swung it down at Kang-Woo as if he were swatting a mosquito that had stuck itself to him. He then turned carefreely to look at Kang-Woo’s comrades, specifically at Balrog, fighting against his subordinates.
[Pathetic human’s subordinate.]
“Hm?” Balrog, who had just blown off Raging Temperance’s head, turned to the Parasite King. “What is it, king of insects?”
[Your master is dead.] The Parasite King showed Balrog Kang-Woo, who was squashed against the Parasite King’s body. [How would you like to serve me instead of this pathetic one?]
Balrog remained silent at the sudden offer. He stared at Kang-Woo’s corpse and laughed, “Kehehe.”
He stared at the Parasite King mockingly.
“It seems your brain did not get bigger with your body.”
[What did you say?]
The Parasite King’s expression hardened. Balrog stared leisurely at the squashed Kang-Woo.
“You…”
Wriggle.
Despite being hurt to the point that any living organism would die, the monster of the Demonic Sea did not die.
“Know nothing.”
Crunch.
[What?]
The Parasite King expressed confusion. His flesh, so small that he could barely feel it, was bitten off.
[Why…]
He looked down with shaking eyes.
Crunch.
A mouth came out of the body that had become mush and bit off his flesh.
[Why aren’t you… dying?]Fôll0w current novÊls o/n n/o/(v)/3l/b((in).(c/o/m)
The fear of the unknown was weighing the Parasite King down as if he were getting sucked into an abyss.
[Urgh!]
The Parasite King raised his arm and ripped off a large portion of where the mouth was attached. Green bodily fluid poured like a fountain from the ripped area.
[Huuu, huuu.]
He was hurt even more compared to when Kang-Woo was eating him, but his expression was much brighter. He threw aside the mound of flesh that he had ripped off.
[What in the world are y—]
Crunch.
The Parasite King heard the sound of flesh being bitten before he could finish his sentence.
The Parasite King looked in pallor. There was a mouth attached to the ripped area.
[What… the hell?]
He was sure that he had completely ripped out the area where the mouth was attached.
[Why is it… still there…?]
The giant Parasite King trembled. His instincts were telling him that something was going wrong even if he didn’t want to know.
[Why are you still there?!!]
The Parasite King shouted madly as he grabbed more of the flesh that the mouth was attached to. He ripped off more and more flesh without thinking of how large his injury was getting.
[Huff, huff, huff,] the Parasite King panted heavily.
He threw aside the torn flesh far away as if it were filth.
Crunch.
However, yet another mouth appeared and bit off his flesh.
[A-Aaaahh,] the Parasite King groaned.
The flesh bitten off with each bite was merely the size of a human fist. It could not even be considered an injury for the Parasite King.
[S-Stop.]
However, he could tell these injuries would continue to stack and this mouth would keep biting off his flesh like a curse. He could also tell that one day, he would die with his consciousness fully intact.
[I told you to stoooooooop!!] the Parasite King screamed.
He scratched madly in fear. His flesh was torn and green bodily fluid spewed from the torn vessels. The Parasite King was scratching more of his flesh off than the amount that Kang-Woo’s mouth was biting off. Even so…
Crunch.
[G-Get off!! Get off of meeeeeeeeeeeeee!!]
The biting did not stop. The Parasite King twisted and turned as he screamed like a madman. Kang-Woo’s mouth was like a nail clipper neverendingly pinching away flesh.
[A-Aaaahh. P-Please.]
Being beheaded to be granted a quick death, and being slowly led to death as flesh was pinched off with a nail clipper.
[S–Stop. I-I didn’t… want something like this.]
Which was a more fearful death?
[This wasn’t… the kind of battle… I wanted.]
Crunch.
The Parasite King’s flesh was bitten off. Black mucus gathered around the area of the Parasite King’s flesh that the mouth was attached to, and took the form of a human.
Kang-Woo looked up at the Parasite King, who was looking down at him in terror, and asked, “Do you fear me now?”
