47. I will definitely kill that brave bastard!

Currently, before my eyes, I saw the King of Sal running away quickly and the 3rd Awakenings chasing him.

In particular, the warrior’s speed was very fast. I could see him gradually catching up with King Sal.

But I was more concerned about other things than that.

Now, what happens to King Sal is none of my business.

Rather than that, I was currently looking at the Vita 800 in my hand with an expression of surprise.

‘It’s very effective, isn’t it?’

This was because the unique effects of the nourishing tonic occurred quickly. At that moment, I felt mana rapidly swirling around my body along with great vitality.

The excellent body of the 3rd awakened person immediately brought out the medicinal effect(?). Moreover, the effect seemed to be even more outstanding.

‘It seems like the combination of caffeine and taurine suits the body of the 3rd awakened person well…’

The Vita 800 I was holding was full of vitamins, caffeine, and taurine. And surprisingly, the combination of caffeine and taurine seemed to help the third awakener a lot.

I felt a surge of energy and looked at the king of flesh running away. It was definitely fast.

Before I knew it, he was very far away from me. It seemed like he had already left the academy for a long time.

But in my eyes, I could clearly see King Sal from a distance.

Does it feel like your concentration has also improved to a higher level?

‘It’s a bit of a waste, isn’t it?’

For a moment, I thought it was a bit of a waste to lose the Vita 800.

Of course, it was only for a moment.

In the Middle Ages, if you were asked to choose between Vita 800 and antibiotics, out of a hundred people would choose antibiotics.

‘You can’t have everything.’

I gave up my attachment to Vita 800. If you were really disappointed, you could just drink Coke, which is sold occasionally, instead of Vita 800.

Anyway, now I had to chase down King Sal.

The legendary elixir has been stolen, but if you stay still, you will arouse unnecessary suspicion.

However, there was no need to seriously chase it, all you had to do was pretend to do it.

gulp.

I drank all the Vita 800 I was drinking. And, feeling the medicinal effect of Vita 800, I started flying quickly.

‘Let’s chase for a while and then escape.’

Oh, of course I also took care of my medicine cabinet.

This was the most important.

This is the reason why all the fuss broke out.

***

King of Flesh Marcel was feeling great joy.

I finally found a panacea. I was able to get 9 bottles of that too.

It was a much better situation than he expected.

He ran at a very fast pace and took out a bottle. After blowing off the top of the bottle, he started gulping down the elixir(?).

About one out of nine bottles was invested in myself.

‘It’s such a sweet yet mysterious taste…!’

It felt like my first time drinking such a delicious drink. It was indeed an elixir.

And the effect was even more amazing.

“Hmm…!”

In an instant, vitality began to surge from my body. At the same time, fatigue disappeared and concentration began to improve. It was a phenomenon I had experienced for the first time.

Additionally, his motor skills seemed to have improved. It was a change that such third awakeners could feel right away.

‘Is this really the Elixir of Earth?!’

I was expecting a panacea, but I got an elixir. But it was better.

That was the case with his current condition.

‘For some reason, it feels like the mana moves faster.’

He could feel that most of his physical abilities had improved. In addition, the movement of the mana in his body also improved.

This effect was possible because it was truly an elixir.

Naturally, he believed that this effect was permanent. And it was believed that the more you drink, the more it amplifies.

Soon he took out another bottle and got ready to drink.

But it was that moment.

Sooo!!

A bloody sound began to be heard from behind.

“Don’t stand there!!”

“Give me the elixir right now!!”

“Elixir… I’m interested.”

It was the sound made by a saint, an elf princess, and an archmage who were quickly pursuing him from behind.

The three chased him at very high speed. Indeed, they were 3rd Awakening level skilled people.

King Sal stopped drinking the elixir.

‘Tsk, I’ll have to drink this later.’

Surprisingly, three 3rd awakeners were chasing him. It was a luxury to drink elixir and run away.

But he wasn’t worried.

His running speed could be said to be the best in the world. There was no need to worry.

‘Okay, take this and hide… then drink it all…!!’

Maybe there was no need for assassinations anymore. Like a warrior, the goal was to simply become the strongest in a head-on confrontation.

But it was that moment.

Ssss-!!

At that moment, a huge noise began to be heard from behind.

If the mercenary king heard it, he would say it sounded like a jet flying.

That loud sound was heard.

And soon I began to feel a tremendous presence.

“Yo, hero!!”

A warrior who was said to be one of the strongest in the world had appeared.

No, maybe it could have been the strongest. And then someone like that started chasing him.

‘No, why is the hero…?! Could it be because of this elixir?!’

No matter how much of a warrior you are, you will covet the legendary elixir. It was certain.

He frowned.

This was because the distance between him and the warrior gradually decreased.

Moreover, the warrior quickly overtook the three people in front of him. And soon I became quite close to him.

‘Tsk, I can’t help it.’

He immediately brought out the true power of the 3rd Awakening. Now was not the time to conserve strength.

Hwaaa!!

Soon a black haze appeared behind him. Then it began to take on a shape. It was a large Shinigami with its entire body covered in robes.

And immediately all his abilities began to improve. At the same time, a special ability arose.

Of course, there was no need to use special abilities now. Instead, he used the best technology available to him.

‘Biggie. ‘Solar eclipse.’

It was a skill that made him the best assassin.

Slurp.

Soon a surprising phenomenon occurred.

His appearance completely disappeared in thin air.

The sight, presence, and smell all disappeared. It felt as if existence itself had completely disappeared.

With this skill, he was able to become the world’s best assassin.

But even with this, the hero could not be assassinated. There was still no sign of skin on him.

So King Sal chose to just run away.

‘I can’t help it. You can drink the rest of the elixir after you run away.’

Then I might become stronger than the warrior. After that, all you had to do was crush the hero from the front.

He made a slightly mocking expression and prepared to run away.

Of course, it was foolish to keep running in the direction I was going. He turned west.

Currently they were above the slums. He had come to the slums on purpose to hide here.

But I couldn’t help it.

‘After taking over the Assassin’s Guild, I’ll have to hide there.’

He was the king of all assassins. You don’t have to force it to submit, it will provide a safe house on its own.

It was then.

“Tsk, did you hide? Well, all you have to do is cut them all down.”

Soon the warrior drew his sword.

And then he slashed the air with that sword. At the same time, he childishly recited the name of the technology with his mouth.

“Oui. Heavenly Sword (天上劍).”

Sigh.

In some ways, it was a very ordinary movement. It looked like an ordinary cut that can be seen anywhere.

In reality, he only slashed the air once.

But the results were not ordinary.

Soon something unbelievable happened.

surprisingly.

Crunch Crunch Crunch Crunch-!!!

A phenomenon I had never seen before occurred along with a terrible sound.

The entire slum beneath them began to disintegrate.

Buildings, trees, stones, people, mice, cats, etc. All beings everywhere began to disintegrate and disappear.

The warrior has not yet unleashed the true power of his third awakening. Nevertheless, a completely different level of destructive power began to surround the surroundings.

It was an inhuman strength.

Naturally, King Sal, who was around the slums, also suffered damage.

“Ugh!”

His eyes saw what no one else could see.

It looked like a thinner thread of mana was moving like a storm, cutting in all directions.

Perhaps, that is the true nature of the technique called Heavenly Sword used by the hero.

Of course, knowing the reality did not mean that it could be easily prevented.

He had a worried look on his face for a moment.

Clearly, Bigi’s eclipse hides his very existence.

However, it did not prevent the effects of his actions.

To put it simply, the moment he defended himself to block that technique, his location would be revealed.

‘shit…!’

But I couldn’t help it.

If things continue like this, they will disintegrate and disappear like other slum people.

I had no choice but to defend myself.

Soon he quickly drew his dagger.

It was very skillful and fast.

And soon the dagger he was holding began to make flashy movements. Then a loud sound spread in all directions.

Clap clap clap clap clap clap-!!!

It was the sound of cutting away all the mana threads coming towards him.

Surprisingly, he was able to block all of the hero’s attacks. It was said that he was not a 3rd Awakening for nothing.

But that was all.

“Is it there?”

Soon a huge number of threads started coming towards him.

The hero had concentrated his power.

Soon he was caught in a storm made of thread. It was the worst situation.

Clap clap clap clap clap clap clap clap clap clap-!!

‘shit…!!’

King Sal was overcome with great worry.

In fact, he has not yet used the special abilities of the 3rd awakened person.

No, in some ways it was true that it couldn’t be used.

‘If I use that…!’

In some ways, his special ability could be seen as a life-saving ability.

It was such an incredible ability that it made you feel the effect of gaining several more lives.

But this ability had a drawback.

It was a drawback that I didn’t normally notice. But now it felt very big.

‘If this happens, my elixir…!!’

That was because it was an ability that only allowed his body to escape.

Everything had to be left behind, including his clothes and belongings.

Of course, I had no choice but to leave the elixir behind as well.

‘Ugh…!’

He shed tears of blood internally. But I couldn’t help it. No matter how important the elixir was, it was not more important than life.

Soon he used his special abilities.

‘Pfft! Special abilities. ‘Escape underground.’

Soon his body began to disappear. It was the same secret he wrote a little while ago.

But if it was like hiding before, now its existence has completely disappeared.

To be precise, only his body began to be absorbed into the ground.

You could think of it as the ability to become one with the ground for a moment and run away as far as possible.

Of course, it was an ability that humans could not display. This was possible because it was the special ability of the 3rd awakened person.

Soon his entire body was absorbed into the ground.

And immediately all the objects he was holding began to disintegrate by the threads of mana.

Crunch Crunch Crunch-!!

His clothes, dagger, magic items, and even elixir.

Of course, King Sal had no choice but to shed tears of blood. This was because his plan, which he had prepared for a really long time, was all in vain because of the hero.

And since it was on the verge of success, I couldn’t help but feel even more sad.

‘Ugh…!! My elixir…!!’

He made a promise as he ran away.

I will definitely kill the hero.

‘I am a warrior and I will definitely kill that bastard. I will definitely kill you no matter what!!’

It was a sincere promise of a king full of resentment.
