Otherworld Demon King Survival Guide.

Episode 84: Human Bastards (7)

A world of white. The only thing visible was a bright white flash. What was this? Was this heaven? The whole world, being white, seemed like heaven. But I was feeling uncomfortable.

If this was heaven, why did my skin feel so itchy and unpleasant?

“Huh?!”

This wasn’t heaven!

I was being flung away!

“Damn it!”

A sudden white light burst out from the nun’s body! And at the same moment, I was flying away!

“Keraaak!”

“Kerururung!”

“Oaaaaaah!”

The goblins were also flying away! Damn it! Some kind of shockwave had exploded and sent us all flying!

Kuung!

“Kuk!”

At the end of my flight, I crashed down. I rolled on the ground a few times and immediately got up. The fight wasn’t over yet. I had to finish off the nun! How many skills did this woman have!

“Guys! Snap out of it! We need to get up!”

“Kereuuk…?!”

“The nun is still alive! Right over there!”

Cheureuk.

The moment I pointed toward the nun,

I couldn’t help but be puzzled.

“Hmm?”

“Kheuk…!”

The nun.

Groaning in pain, she was stumbling, barely walking while clutching the spear wound in her side.

“Buril!”

It was Buril who had inflicted the critical wound!

“Buril! Well done! Truly the top-ranked of the Demon King’s army!”

“Keruk…?!”

“Really great job! Let’s go finish this!”

Just as I picked up a rolling spear and kicked it off the ground.

“God… please, damn it… look after this humble being… Kkak!”

Hwaak!

A bright white light burst out from the nun’s hand, clutching her side. I couldn’t understand it. Why? Why is there light in her hand?

And then.

Seureureuk.

The bleeding stopped.

The nun’s side was healed.

“Crazy…!”

Now she was using self-healing, too! We were screwed! If the nun recovered in this situation, there was no chance of winning!

But.

“Huh?”

Suddenly.

The ominous and stinging aura emanating from the nun disappeared. As if blown away by the wind, it was completely gone, no longer perceptible.

“Haak…! Haak…!”

The nun, breathing heavily, leaned against a tree in front of her. What she held in her hand wasn’t her vanished sword but a mere stone.

“Come, come… you evil demons. I’ll kill you all… Haak!”

So it is.

“You!”

This girl.

“Have you used up all your power!”

“Nonsense…”

“Krrr! Krrr hahaha!”

The power she possessed, like magic!

No. Since she was a nun, let’s call it divine power. Having exhausted all her divine power, she was no longer a superhuman. A nun who was not a superhuman? That was just a tired woman.

“This damn bitch… what are you laughing at… ha, ha…”

“Looks like I’ve won.”

“Shut up!”

Teolsseok.

The nun sat down, screaming furiously.

“What are you… really a demon…!”

“Don’t you know about demons?”

“That kind of thing…”

Did she not know?

Forget it.

It was not the time for this conversation.

“Everyone. Hold the spears in reverse. Execute.”

The goblins who could move got up and grabbed their weapons.

“Kereuk!”

“Kereuk!”

Keek… Keek…

The goblins were also breathing heavily. They were exhausted. But muster up your strength for the last time. We had won.

“Go and beat her up!”

“Kereuk!”

“I’m joining too!”

I picked up a broken spear shaft and approached the nun with the goblins.

“Damn it!”

Despair spread across the nun’s face. She was a raging woman, but in the end, she was alone. No matter how strong, you couldn’t beat an army alone. What if the adventurers hadn’t run away? I might have lost. But they did run. The result was everything.

“Beat her up!”

“Kereuk!”

Thus.

Puhuk!

Puhuk!

Puhuk!

We mercilessly beat the nun sitting in front of the tree. A tidal wave of violence. I swung the spear shaft, now just a wooden club, beating her relentlessly!

“Kyaaak! Kyaak!”

The nun could only raise her guard and scream.

Even if she wanted to resist, a club was a long-range weapon. It didn’t allow any space. Perfectly optimized for mercilessly beating a single woman sitting down!

“Surrender! Surrender!”

“Kereuk!”

“Kerrruk!”

“No! I won’t! You damn bastards! I’ll kill you! I’ll kill you all!”

The nun, while being pummeled, screamed in fury!

But the battle was already decided!

“Her heeead!”

Ppaak!

The moment I struck her head with the club!

“Kkeuk…!”

Finally, the nun collapsed to the side!

“We wonnnnn!”

“Kereuk!”

Finally!

We finally won!

And we didn’t even kill her!

We successfully captured her alive!

Now, I would kidnap her to my dungeon to find out about the nun’s identity, her mysterious powers, and everything about human society! I’d definitely keep her alive and take her with me!

“Kereuk!”

Buril roared in triumph.

“Calm down. I’ll check her condition.”

But I had to check first.

I approached the collapsed nun.

“You bastard, kheuuk…! How dare you do this to me!”

The nun shouted through clenched teeth.

It seemed that she didn’t have the strength to scream anymore.

“Hmm.”

The situation was a mess. She really was beaten up badly. There was blood in several places. But it didn’t seem like she was critically injured.

Above all.

I couldn’t feel any divine power from her. It was clear she had exhausted it all. That was why she was just an ordinary woman now.

“That’s enough. Guys, tie her up. Tie her arms and legs really tight.”

“Kereuk.”

We could take her as a prisoner.

The goblins brought some ropes.

“No, wait a minute.”

“Kereuk?”

“Take off her clothes first.”

The nun was wearing a nun’s habit. It was somewhat thin and form-fitting, but attacks didn’t penetrate it. Perhaps the habit reacted with divine power to enhance its defense.

It could be like a magical item or a relic. We needed to take it off.

Hwaak.

I reached out to the nun.

“What are you doing!”

“Stay still!”

I undressed the nun forcefully in that state.

“Kya, kyaaaak!”

The nun screamed and resisted, but she was very weak. Without any divine power left, she had no strength to resist.

“Stay still! I need to take off your clothes!”

I first removed her veil, and while holding down the resisting nun’s neck, I lifted the hem of her habit, exposing her underwear.

“Damn! Damn it! Let go, you rapist bastard!”

“You woman!”

“Let go! Damn, damn, damn! Stop it! I don’t want this!”

Anyone would think it was really a rape.

“Guys! Hold her arms and legs!”

“Kereuk!”

The goblins grabbed the nun.

And then we stripped the nun completely.

“Damn, damn…! Huk! Hukeuk! You bastard! I’ll kill you!”

The naked nun cursed and sobbed. But her figure was… unexpectedly good.

“I’ll kill you, you damn dog! Huk! Hukeuk! Damn, damn!”

“Now, tie her up.”

“Kereuk!”

No time to admire her body. I shook my head vigorously to dispel my desire and tied the nun’s hands and feet.

“Huk… Hukeuk!”

Good.

Now, Sharan.

“Sharan.”

Sharan, who had been kicked by the nun, was lying down resting.

“Sha… Master.”

“Are you in a lot of pain?”

“My arm… hurts… Sha…”

She seemed to be in a lot of pain. Seeing Sharan in pain made my heart hurt even more. I gently stroked Sharan’s arm.

“Shaat…!”

“Here. How much does it hurt? Can you move it?”

“Sha… Just a moment…”

“No, wait. Mana infusion.”

Kkok.

I infused mana into Sharan’s arm.

“Shaah?!”

“How is it?”

“It’s a little better… Sha. But it still hurts a bit.”

“It’s somewhat better.”

“Yes, Master.”

Sharan’s face looked more comfortable. I touched Sharan’s face and ears.

“Sharan, rest for now. We’ve won. Recover your strength. Understand? I’ll finish everything and come back.”

“…”

Sharan nodded her head.

“Damn it.”

This damned nun.

She made my Sharan look like this?

We had already captured her.

I would lock her in the dungeon, tie her up, and thoroughly suck out all her information. Tied up and unable to resist, I’d find out everything over the next few days.

Information.

“Buril!”

Now, it was time to take care of the casualties.

“Let’s quickly tend to the injured ones!”

“Kereuk!”

I stomped the ground. My subordinates lay there, bleeding. Buril, quick-witted as always, had already ordered them to lie down in a row.

“Kheuk!”

There were six goblins on the ground. Three were knocked away by a kick, and the rest were bleeding from sword wounds. Especially Childol, who had a very severe injury from his shoulder to his abdomen.

He wouldn’t survive without surgery.

“Kereuk…”

Yet.

Childol was still breathing!

He was almost gone but still alive!

“Childol!”

“Kerurung…”

“You bastard!”

I grabbed his hand.

It was a fierce battle.

It must have been difficult for the nun, even armed, to face the goblins who charged at her all at once and deliver a lethal blow. But this was real combat. You didn’t need an instant kill; a wound can lead to death from bleeding.

“Mana, mana infusion!”

I infused my mana directly into Childol’s heart. And not just him. I treated the other five goblins, too…!

“Please live! You bastards! You think you can leave me first!”

“Kereuk…”

“Kek…”

Now, my mana was drained, too.

But.

Sseureureuk.

The blood from the goblins’ wounds started to stop.

“Please…!”

When I first met Buril. He was also badly injured. I treated him. So, these guys could make it, too! I thought two out of the six might die! But I can save the four!

“Kereuk.”

Buril grabbed my shoulder.

“Thank you.”

I looked at my injured subordinates for a while.

Soon.

Sseureureuk.

Childol’s eyes closed.

“…”

I put my ear to his chest.

The heartbeat was… no.

“Is he not dead?!”

Thump.

Faint but present, the heart was still beating. The same was true for the other two severely injured goblins. They lay with their eyes closed as if dead, but they were still alive.

“Kereuk?”

Buril seemed puzzled as well.

“What’s going on?”

…

This wasn’t some sleeping princess scenario. These guys were lying down as if they had fallen into a coma… Could it be?! Had they fallen into a coma because they had been absorbing my mana and not died?!

It was possible!

“Uooooooooooh!”

If they were not dead, they could be brought back to life someday!

There was hope!

“Hueeuk!”

Tears burst from my eyes. I didn’t want to lose my subordinates! I thought I had lost them this time! But there was still hope! They hadn’t died yet!

“Kereueuk!”

“Kerurung!”

“Kereuk!”

The goblins that could move responded to me with cries.

Yes!

“We can’t die. I won’t let us die.”

We must survive.

“To do that, we need to chase down and kill the humans that ran away.”

I grabbed the single-handed sword dropped by the nun.

No matter what, they needed to be tracked down and killed.

“Master… the humans that escaped.”

Thinking about it, Sharan, who had been lying down, had now come to my side and spoke.

“Sharan?”

“Let’s go kill them.”

“Sharan, you rest here. I’ll go.”

“The humans are dangerous. Sharan will go, too.”

“I told you to lie down.”

“Sharan is okay now. Master healed me.”

“Still.”

“We can only be at ease once all the humans are dead.”

“…”

“Let’s go together.”

Alright.

If that was what Sharan wanted.

Let’s go.

“Buril. I’ll go with Sharan to catch the humans. You stay and watch over the nun and the others.”

“Kereuk!”

When I spoke, Buril smiled like a Hahoe mask and saluted. This little one. He was trying to seem lively despite nearly dying from exhaustion.

I’m sorry!

But I have to ask you now!

“If the nun tries to escape, kill her right away. If not, keep her alive. We can only live if she lives. Buril, you are my right hand. I trust you.”

“Kereuk!”

I trust you!

“Then, Sharan! Let’s go! To hunt humans!”

“Yes, Master!”

“Buril, I’ll be back soon!”

We couldn’t conclude the situation until they were all dead.

As I ran, I checked the nun’s condition for the last time. She was tied up naked, stripped of everything, and collapsed. No problem.
