Solo Resurrection

Chapter 95

Chaos of Confusion (1)

“Uwooh!”

“Uoh, uoh, uoh!!”

Normally, just one rampaging ogre is enough to completely devastate the surroundings.

When over a hundred such ogres gathered, it felt like a real earthquake had struck.

“What the hell is this all of a sudden!?”

Kang Hyeon, with all his buffs activated, pulled out Ogre’s giant hammer.

“Huap!”

And he swung it with all his might, as if swinging a baseball bat.

“Uoh?!”

The ogre charging at the forefront from the opposite side instinctively felt that something was wrong.

The angle of the hammer was strange.

It tried to dodge desperately, but other ogres were already pushing from behind.

“It’s already too late, you bastard!”

-Thwack!

The massive body of the ogre hit by the hammer rose into the air.

“Uooooooooooh-!”

“That one’s got some good lungs.”

A scream of agony echoed throughout the forest.

The ogre, grimacing in pain, planted its head straight into the ground.

“This feels like déjà vu…?”

Somehow, the situation felt familiar.

Kang Hyeon tilted his head and then tapped the twitching ogre’s tailbone with his hammer.

“Come on in. Since it’s come to this, today’s treatment is specially free of charge.”

The ogres who witnessed their comrade die in such a horrific manner hesitated for a moment, but soon their eyes rolled back, and they charged in as if nothing had happened.

“Uoooh!”

Kang Hyeon rampaged between the giant ogres, swinging his hammer incessantly.

An Yu-seong and Yoon Na-rae, who had joined the battle at some point, were with him.

-Kwang, Bang!

Every time Kang Hyeon and the ogres clashed, a thunderous sound rang out, and the trees in the forest trembled.

“When will this end? I swear, when I get back…!”

“What did I do!?”

“You sure know when I’m talking about you!?”

In the midst of battle, Yoon Na-rae responded with an irritated voice to Kang Hyeon’s shout.

“Brother. Come!”

Suddenly, at An Yu-seong’s cry, Kang Hyeon frowned.

“What do you mean ‘come’…?”

Kang Hyeon’s body stiffened as he spoke.

‘Don’t tell me…’

An enormously powerful magical energy was approaching.

“Shit…”

It was already too late to avoid it.

Kang Hyeon quickly resigned himself and prepared.

“Kyaaaak-!”

An enormous roar that shook the heavens.

Everyone in the midst of battle stopped and covered their ears.

Kang Hyeon turned his head to look in the direction of the sound.

-Flap, flap!

A giant monster bird, probably about 15 meters long.

Panath, the boss monster that had slaughtered numerous ability users, was gazing at this place.

“When it rains, it pours…”

“Kyaaaa!”

Panath let out a monstrous cry.

“Uwoh, uwoh!”

The ogres, looking like primitive humans.

“Haah…”

Kang Hyeon roughly ran his hand through his hair.

The three groups glared at each other, locked in a tense standoff.

“What are they doing?”

“They’re in a standoff, obviously.”

“I have eyes too, you punk. I’m asking why they’re in a standoff.”

“Why are you asking that?”

“What?”

An Yu-seong looked at Kang Hyeon as if he couldn’t understand him.

“What are you thinking, unlike yourself? Just blast them all away.”

“I was wrong to ask you. Tsk…”

Kang Hyeon clicked his tongue and continued.

“I just thought of something. Monsters of different species fight each other too, right?”

“Yes. It’s common.”

“Somehow… That boss monster.”

Kang Hyeon pulled An Yu-seong’s ear as if he was about to say something that shouldn’t be overheard.

“It seems to have bad relations with other monsters..!”

“You only noticed that now?”

“What?”

An Yu-seong openly showed a dumbfounded expression.

“I knew that by instinct long ago. Even without skills, can’t you just see it?”

“…”

“Anyone can see they’re growling at each other because they don’t get along, and you’ve been pondering this for minutes.”

“…”

“So, brother, don’t think about things that don’t suit you and just go with your body…”

“Alright, shut up!”

Kang Hyeon, who shouted at An Yu-seong, ran his hand through his hair again.

“Uwowu!”

“Wou! Uwooo!”

“Uwo, uwo, uuu!”

“What on earth are they babbling about? It’s so noisy I could die.”

Kang Hyeon, irritated, cursed at the ogres for no reason.

“Woo, wooo!”

The ogres continued to chatter enthusiastically.

They were clearly having an important meeting, using gestures to communicate among themselves.

If one were to interpret, it might mean something like this:

‘Let’s run away!’

‘No. If we run now, we’ll die.’

‘That’s right. We’re gathered. This is our chance to take it down.’

Kang Hyeon, listening to the commotion, frowned.

“Uo, uo! Shut up, you bastards! I’m getting neurotic.”

Even if Kang Hyeon shouted, there was no way the ogres would listen.

“Haah… Can you understand what they’re saying right now?”

“They’re having a meeting about whether to attack the boss or just run away.”

“Really?”

Kang Hyeon fell into thought after hearing An Yu-seong’s words.

“I see…”

Kang Hyeon, who had been standing with his arms crossed and eyes closed, suddenly started to grin.

“Then I should make it easier for me to decide.”

“How?”

“You said you wanted to keep fighting, right?”

“Huh…?”

Kang Hyeon grabbed An Yu-seong’s shoulder.

“You’ve been whining to me every day about wanting to do some proper hunting. Isn’t that right?”

“Whining is a bit much…”

“You said you wanted to catch a boss today too, didn’t you?!”

“That’s true…”

For the first time in a while, madness filled Kang Hyeon’s eyes.

An Yu-seong, meeting those eyes, reluctantly nodded.

“More than that, brother. My instincts are screaming that this is extremely dangerous right now.”

“Doesn’t it make your heart race?”

“…?”

“That’s what you like the most, right? Dangerous things. Like, blood splattering and all that, right?! Isn’t it?!”

“…”

An Yu-seong couldn’t bring himself to deny it.

“You have a skill that lets you step on air too. Perfect.”

Kang Hyeon grabbed An Yu-seong’s waist.

His arm muscles twitched and veins bulged, showing how much strength he was using.

“W-wait! What are you doing…!”

“Just. Enjoy!”

And then he threw An Yu-seong with all his might.

“Go! An Yu-seong-!”

An Yu-seong was launched like a bird towards Panath.

“Alright. Let’s play properly!”

[Roar of Enraged Lion is activated]

Panath, who had been leisurely flying through the sky, let out a roar.

“Kyaaaaa-!”

At that sound, the monsters in the forest could be felt cowering.

In this forest, it was the absolute ruler.

It destroys and devours everything in its path.

The forest monsters are busy hiding, fearing it.

“Kyaa!”

But there were some annoying ones.

The ogres.

They were the only monsters that resisted it.

Because of this, it had been tearing them apart whenever they were spotted, to prevent them from gathering.

“Uooooooo-!”

Suddenly, an enormously loud scream was heard.

It was a voice that seemed to contain resentment, but it was clearly that of an ogre.

Panath moved to see what was happening.

“Uoo, uoo!”

There were dozens of ogres gathered there.

Panath became very uncomfortable.

Although it wasn’t afraid of them gathering, it was certainly annoying.

“Kyaaaaa-!”

Panath roared to announce its presence.

But they didn’t scatter and remained gathered.

Moreover, there were humans near the ogres.

The fairly strong magical energy felt different from the humans it had been tearing apart so far.

“…”

After a moment of standoff.

Panath continued to ponder.

It could fight them as is, but it would have to endure some damage.

Moreover, sensing an ominous atmosphere, other monsters in the forest could be felt gathering.

“…”

It seemed better to leave for now.

It wasn’t running away out of fear.

It just didn’t want to spill its noble blood in an unnecessary fight.

“Go! An Yu-seong-!”

That’s when it happened.

Suddenly, a human voice was heard from the ground, and something flew quickly towards it.

-Pwhack!

And something sharp and heavy stuck into its eyeball.

“Uhaha! I don’t care. Let’s play!”

“Kyaaaaa-!”

Panath’s scream of pain rang out, and the battle began.

***

***

A complete melee.

A grand brawl with no distinction between friend and foe.

-Bang, bang, boom!

Kang Hyeon created magic orbs in both hands and threw them in all directions.

“Uwooooh!”

“Shut up!”

Kang Hyeon’s sword sliced through the neck of an ogre flailing in the dust.

-Swoosh!

The ogre, clutching its neck to stop the gushing blood, went berserk.

A passing goblin was sent flying by the ogre’s foot.

“Phew… How did it come to this?”

The surroundings were in utter chaos.

There were so many creatures swarming about, it seemed like every monster in the dungeon had gathered.

-Crash! Bang!

“It’s a mess. A total mess.”

Panath was like a completely mad fighting rooster.

The one that had come down to the ground was continuously stabbing its huge beak into the floor.

-Thud thud thud thud!

At a glance, it might have looked like a giant chicken pecking at feed, but the results were horrific.

Every time the beak struck the ground, monsters were being torn apart regardless of their type.

“Keeeeek!”

But the monsters hadn’t lost their fighting spirit.

Normally, they would have been busy running away from Panath, but today was different.

Even they had gone berserk and were charging at Panath.

“Why are they responding so intensely?”

This wasn’t the situation Kang Hyeon had intended.

Kang Hyeon had actually thought it would be a success if he just managed to divert Panath’s attention.

If Panaths and the ogres fought due to his provocation, that alone would achieve the goal.

“Kaaaa-!”

The start was good.

Panath went wild from the attacks of Kang Hyeon and An Yu-seong, and as expected, the ogres charged towards Panath.

“It was good up to that point…”

The problem was what came after.

As the battle unfolded, other monsters started to join in one by one.

“I guess they had a lot pent up.”

From Kang Hyeon’s perspective, it seemed the monsters thought this was their chance.

A chance to defeat the tyrant of the forest and bring peace.

-Boom!

From somewhere, an unknown monster crashed next to Kang Hyeon.

“Sigh, it’s chaotic… Should I just run away like this?”

He had set the stage, but something didn’t feel right.

There was no focus, and the creatures weren’t particularly interested in him.

“Honestly, I could probably just leave now and come back tomorrow to catch whoever survives.”

“Hahaha!”

“That one seems to be enjoying it.”

An Yu-seong was really going wild like a fish in water.

“Argh! I don’t know. Let’s just clean this all up and leave.”

At that moment, Kang Hyeon spotted the huge log the ogre had been holding.

As if prepared in advance, the end of the log had been sharpened quite keenly.

“Hnngh!”

Kang Hyeon lifted the log and looked at Panath.

“To clean up, I guess we should deal with that chicken head first?”

Kang Hyeon’s muscles bulged as if about to burst as he held the log.

Muscles taut like rubber bands stretched to their limit.

The log cracked under the grip that exceeded its limits.

“Die!”

With that shout, the muscles that had been stretched to their limit were released.

-Whoosh!

An incredible gust of wind arose simultaneously.

The huge log became a single bullet and was fired.

But unfortunately, it just grazed the creature and fell to the ground.

“Tch, missed.”

Although he hadn’t thrown it with great expectations, Kang Hyeon felt a bit disappointed when it missed.

“Phew. Then shall we move properly?”

Just as Kang Hyeon was speaking and stretching his body…

“Kiiiaaa-!”

Panath let out another terrible scream.

And an enormous amount of magical power began to gather in its open beak.

“Huh..?”

Kang Hyeon was momentarily confused as he looked at the creature.

“Why…?”

Their eyes met.

For some reason he couldn’t understand, Kang Hyeon was certain.

His eyes had met with those of the Panath, who was holding fire in its mouth.

“What is it? Why?!”

-Hooooooo

Panath didn’t answer Kang H yeon’s questions.

It just kept gathering magical power.

“Why are you suddenly looking at me?!”

-Fwooooosh!

And then the flames erupted.

The fire Panath breathed out engulfed the entire area where Kang Hyeon had been.

“Cough, cough!”

The goblin Gerson was running frantically through the forest.

“Kiaaaa!”

Panath’s cries could still be heard. It was clear that it was about to have a showdown.

“Grrr…”

Today wasn’t the promised day.

Nevertheless, his comrades had rushed towards the source of the sound.

It was unavoidable since the ogres, their most important fighting force, were gathered there.

“Cough, cough!”

Gerson was fleeing, leaving that battlefield behind. He was running as hard as he could, until he was out of breath.

“Cough…”

Gerson knew that running away was cowardly.

But he wanted to live.

Looking back, he could see Panath showing its might even from afar.

Charging at that tyrant of the forest was nothing short of suicide.

They must all be crazy.

“Cough?”

That’s when it happened.

Something brushed past Panath’s side.

And it was quickly flying towards this direction.

Gerson squinted to see what it was.

“Keek?!”

A log.

It was a huge log!

Why a log was flying through the sky didn’t matter.

He had to dodge quickly…

-Boom!

That was goblin Gerson’s last memory.
