Regressor’s Life After Retirement

—————————————

[Midnight Run]

“Damage!”

At the same time as I shouted, I jumped to the side, holding the waist of the little boy and Kiri on either side.

-Quaaaang!

The seat we were sitting in was shattered and something that had been buried inside was pulled out of the ground.

It was a tentacle as thick as a human body.

And what I thought was starlight were the green eyeballs hanging like suction cups on the tentacles.

Coo goo goo goo goong!

There was a loud noise and the ground was shaking.

I lowered my posture and glared at the tentacle and at something huge hidden in the fog behind the tentacle.

A being of enormous size, with a form that was complex to describe in words, was approaching us.

“Is everyone okay?”

I heard answers from people around me saying it was okay.

““It’s okay!””

“I’m fine.”

King Guho and Sirutdeok took care of the knight and retreated, and Abraxas stepped back and observed the tentacle with interest.

The tentacle that attacked us raised its tip and looked around at us. Hundreds of eyeballs attached to the tentacles blinked and made eye contact with us.

Movement as if looking for something.

The place where the gaze stopped was directly in front of me, not towards me, but towards Kiri.

Kiri was trembling in fear.

“Chi parasite demon….”

I asked with a puzzled expression.

“Wasn’t that what I took care of last time?”

Kiri’s green face was distorted to a pitiful degree.

“That’s a different kind. When I came over to Earth, I think I came over with someone following me. To catch me…”

“Did you do something wrong to them? “Why are they so obsessed with you?”

“I don’t know….”

I clicked my tongue at the look on his face that looked like he was going to cry at any moment.

At that moment, the tentacles that had finished their search stretched out and attacked us.

-Quaang!

I threw my body to the side and threw the kid I was holding on my right towards As. I need to be able to use at least one arm properly.

“Ready for battle!”

At my shout, Wangguho and Sirutteok stepped forward, raising their magic power.

Crash!

Wang Guho’s petrified body turned golden, and bluish energy formed on Sirutdeok’s battle axe.

A magic arrow was shot from Abraxas’ bow, and the kid standing next to him created a ring of fire on his palm.

Now that I think about it, it’s a pretty solid party.

I dodged a series of tentacle attacks and drew my sword.

“Other monsters will come when they hear the commotion. Hurry and kill that tentacle before it becomes a hassle…”

I couldn’t finish my sentence. This was because new ‘tentacles’ were discovered that appeared through the fog.

“Crazy….”

Slurp. Slurp. Slurp.

Tentacles coming out through the red fog. From the moment I passed 20, I gave up counting.

Dozens of tentacles covering the sky began to attack me at once.

-Quaang! bang! Bang bang bang!

The floor exploded as if it had been bombed. Tentacles shattered nearby buildings and the earthquake grew more severe.

Googoo googung!

I saw a huge shadow growing bigger in the fog.

“Operation change! Driver, go back to the car and start the engine. The rest follow while protecting the driver!”

After shouting that, I jumped into the sky and swung Shalit.

Sigh!

A tentacle falls to the floor and shouts, “Boom!” made a sound However, the cut section began to bubble and soon new tentacles began to grow.

The moment I saw it, I was convinced of the identity of this tentacle monster.

“Tentacle….”

Just like the rock of Sisyphus, a material monster brought by the red fog.

Its form is a huge colony made up of hundreds of tentacles, and if you do not find and process the main body, which can be called the core, it will constantly regenerate even if you cut it.

I sighed, glaring at Kiri hanging on my left side.

“Did you bring that too?”

“I’m sorry….”

-Quaaaaaang!

Once again, the floor I was standing on exploded.

Tadat!

I jumped into the air and twisted my body to avoid the flying tentacles.

Tentacles narrowly passed by me. I stuck my sword into one of them and secured it.

Sigh!

I landed on the tentacle and started running on it.

While I was running, stepping on the green eyeballs that hung like suction cups on the tentacles, other tentacles came flying at me.

Whick!

He twisted his upper body to let go of the tentacles targeting his shoulders, and swung Shalit to cut off three tentacles at the same time. I jumped into the air to avoid the tentacles that were targeting me from all directions.

The tentacles that collided with each other were crushed and green fluid sprayed out in all directions. I blocked the bodily fluids splashing towards me with the Kiri in my left hand.

“Oooh! It went into your mouth…”

“You just vomit on me.” “I’ll throw you on the floor.”

“Ugh…!”

Kiri, who was about to vomit, quickly covered her mouth with both hands. I kept moving and buying time.

Whirly!

On the way, I switched to another tentacle and made the tentacles that were targeting me tangle with each other. The tangled tentacles destroyed the elusive building.

“Wow!”

Exclamations of exclamation erupted from below at my circus-like movements.

Whick!

I turned over in the air and looked down.

“Did you start the engine?”

While I was wasting time, driver Park Young-bae ran to the car and started the car.

At the back of the car was a 5-meter-tall giant kingguho guarding the car, with a little boy and Abraxas riding on both shoulders of the kingguho.

Sirutteok stuck his head out from the passenger seat and said.

“older brother! “We are ready to leave!”

Monsters were coming from all directions after hearing the commotion we had caused. Their cries could be heard from all directions.

Wow!

I cut off one of the tentacles and nodded.

“Let’s go first. “I will follow you soon.”

As soon as the group got in, the driver started the car.

-Booaaaaaa!

The rear view of a car that is rapidly becoming smaller. After waiting a little more time, I opened Pacheon Shinbo.

Whick!

The background was pushed all the way back. The fog hindered my vision, but the sound of the engine ahead served as a guide.

The problem wasn’t that I was the only one who heard that sound.

Kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwak!

Tentacle was following me at a frightening speed. The sight of hundreds of tentacles rising from the fog and chasing after the city, destroying it, was like a scene from a disaster movie.

Moreover, monsters started coming from all directions. That shadow alone was enough to make the fog even darker.

“Ugh…”

Kiri, who was placed on my left side, was in a limp state. I clicked my tongue once and then increased my speed.

After a while, our vehicle began to appear ahead.

“mister! come fast!”

The little boy stuck his head out the window and waved at me.

At that moment, I screamed.

“Hey Kid! left!”

Whoa!

An ogre suddenly attacked through the fog.

At that moment, an arrow sticking out from inside the car hit the ogre’s head.

-Phew!

The ogre’s body, pierced by an arrow, fell backwards. And Abraxas showed his face behind the little boy and laughed.

“No need to worry here!”

I sighed and pointed to the front of them.

“Is this just the beginning?”

Wow!

Monsters came through the fog from the front, left and right sides of the car, and from the sky. After hearing the commotion caused by Tentacle, everyone came here.

However, the monsters on the ground could not approach the car.

Grrrrrrrrrrrrr!

Flames and magic arrows poured out of the window and rained down everywhere like a bombardment.

Suddenly, the car roof opened and Wang Guho and Sirutdeok stood up.

puck! Bubbubbuk!

Wang Guho, who only used [Petrification] on his fists, swung his golden fist at the flying monsters, turning them into blood clots, and

Kwasik! Kwazijic!

Sirutdeok also swung his battle ax and cut the monster’s body into pieces.

Like that, the group advanced through waves of monsters head on.

At that sight, I shook my head.

“Secret speed is a piece of cake.”

Even if you spread the word around the neighborhood, there will be fewer monsters than now.

I sighed and unfolded the Pacheon Shinbo with all my might to close the distance between me and the car.

“Move! “I’m going in!”

The two masses came together on both sides, creating a space in the middle. I kicked off the floor and jumped onto the roof of the car.

Whick!

After sliding into the car, I threw Kiri into the corner of the car and looked back.

Kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwak!

Tentacle was still chasing us at breakneck speed. It changed the terrain by pushing the floor with hundreds of tentacles and destroying anything in its path.

“…at that level, it’s like a natural disaster.”

“I guess that doesn’t mean you can’t hunt?”

Abraxas said as he fired arrows out the window.

Sigh! Puff puff!

Baekbal Baekjung. Most of the arrows she shot hit the monster’s head or heart.

“Is there any need to wear such an annoying thing on your tail?”

The little boy seemed to have the same thought and spoke as he created a huge flame in the air.

“Shall I burn it?”

I shook my head.

“If you burn it, it will emit toxic gases.”

The toxic gas will be sprayed several kilometers in an instant, causing a series of explosions and turning the entire surrounding area into a land of death.

‘Even if you do that, you might miss it.’

Tentacles are a colony made up of hundreds of tentacles.

If the core survives without burning out and escapes, it will only end up polluting the surrounding land.

“Then are you going to keep taking that thing with you?”

“…….”

I thought for a moment.

It was an unexpected situation. Behind us, a monster that was difficult to deal with was destroying the city and chasing us, and

in the aftermath of the commotion, many monsters were coming towards us.

Now, it would be wrong to go quietly to your destination.

It was better to go quickly, even if it meant taking risks.

‘Then…’

My eyes looked straight ahead beyond the fog. It occurred to me that if I drive at this speed, I will soon arrive at the Han River.

At the same time, a plan came into my head.

“Knight. “How long does it take to get to the Han River?”

“…….”

The driver, who was holding the steering wheel with all his courage and concentration, could barely answer after being asked the same question three times.

“…At this rate, it will take less than 20 minutes. “I can’t go to Yanghwa Bridge, which I originally wanted to go to… I think I will have to go to Seongsan Bridge.”

The driver showed off his stunt-like driving skills several times while talking.

Good! A magical drift unfolded along with the smell of burning tires. A group of monsters that tried to block our path followed us, screaming in confusion.

I said to the driver with a small exclamation.

“From now on, don’t worry about the monsters and just go with all your might. And everyone please focus on what I say from now on.”

I told my group about my future plans.

“really?”

“That doesn’t make sense-!”

“It’s gonna be fun!”

There was a mix of confusion and screaming and cheering, but in the end, everyone agreed to my plan.

The car accelerated even more.

-Booaaaaaa!

Abraxas continued to cast magic to increase concentration and eyesight on driver Park Young-bae.

And after a while, we entered Seongsan Bridge.

The bridge collapsed from the middle.

It was a trace of the First Gate. There seemed to be piles of monsters and human skeletons piled up here and there.

And under the broken bridge,

kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa!

The Han River was swirling with terrifying force.

Dozens or hundreds of whirlpools that create pure white foam. A strong gust of wind rose above the river, causing our vehicle to sway.

Kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa!

“Ugh…”

The driver unknowingly slowed down due to the dizzying sight just looking at it. I yelled at him to speed up.

“If you stop here, you won’t have any porridge or rice! Step on it more!”

Driver Park Young-bae closed his eyes tightly and stepped on the accelerator. The end of the collapsed bridge was approaching.

And Tentacle was still chasing us behind us.

The gigantic monster, which had changed the terrain as it came, had no more obstacles and chased after us at breakneck speed.

Sigh!

I cut off one flying tentacle and looked straight ahead.

There are now less than 200 meters left to where the bridge collapsed.

But the picture I wanted hasn’t been drawn yet.

I muttered while looking at the swirling Han River.

“Come out. Come out. “Come out…”

There is no way the ruler of the Han River could not have sensed the presence of a monster as gigantic as Tentacle.

And there was no way he would forgive the other person if he trespassed into his territory.

It was that moment. The river’s eddies began to rotate in the opposite direction.

At the same time, the surface of the water began to inflate like a balloon.

I shouted in joy.

“It’s out!”

As soon as I shouted, spray of water rose hundreds of meters high.

Puhwaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

And what appeared was a water snake so large that it could not be pushed by Tentacle’s massive body.

Ancient Serpent.

A monster that settled in the Han River after the First Gate.

Those silver scales are hard enough to be difficult to pierce with a sword steel, and most magic or elemental attacks are impervious to them.

Moreover, it is a monster that can handle gusts of wind and lightning.

-Kiyaaaaa!

The Ancient Serpent raised its head straight and roared at the Tentacles that were chasing us.

A clear warning not to invade his territory.

But Tentacle ignored the warning. A huge mass of tentacles covered Seongsandaegyo Bridge and chased us.

Of course, I had no intention of getting caught here.

“The original plan was to quietly cross the Han River without the Serpent knowing…”

Now that things have come to this, I plan to catch both of them.

“Everyone hold on tight! Jump into the river!”

The end of the collapsed bridge was visible. I felt the driver shaking next to me. I put my hand on top of his.

The driver looked back at me with a face that looked like he was about to cry.

“Team leader….”

“When I return, I will double your salary.”

Ignoring the driver’s muttering, ‘What’s the use of your salary if you die…’ I pressed the button under the steering wheel.

At that moment, the bridge ended and we flew through the air.

And then it crashed.

““Aaaah!””
