Swish-! Swish-!

A red dragon runs through the wind. The mere presence of the dragon gives people a sense of threat and makes them a spectacle, eliciting small screams and gasps.

There was a lot of noise in my head due to my frustration with the current situation and the Q&A with the guy named C earlier, but I tried to clear away the noise and run forward.

The sound of the wind blowing around my auditory organs probably exceeds 100 kilometers per hour. Of course, it is possible to go further.

It is also true that the driving force of Yongin’s strong body has the potential to even momentarily break the speed of sound.

However, it is difficult to do so because if you do so, you may not be able to control your speed and hit a crowd of citizens on the street, causing a catastrophe.

Before falling into this world, there was a scene like that in a noir genre superhero drama.

The story is about a man with acceleration powers who accidentally hits and kills the main character’s girlfriend while using his powers, and the main character begins to seek revenge.

It feels like my heart is clogged and stuffy, but it’s sad that I become the target of innocent civilians’ resentment.

‘shit! If there is still danger, stay indoors!’

It was like America, where liberalism and individualism were the trends. A lot of camera flashes went off at me, but I couldn’t smile at them as much as I did now.

I wanted to use teleportation, but teleportation consumes too much magic power.

You can’t just spread magical energy and move around like that when you don’t know what kind of enemy P is. Actually, looking at the guy named C, I thought he might be a dog.

‘It’s a shame I used up most of the potion.’

If it didn’t work out, I was even prepared to drink the only elixir in Tbilisi, where Jang Ah-hyun drank half and only about half remained.

After running for a while, and nearing the end of downtown, I see a familiar girl with horns wandering somewhere.

It seems to have become a subject of considerable interest to the citizens around it, but it seems that people are having a hard time approaching it due to its growling, beast-like atmosphere that looks as if it will bite at any moment.

‘Yoon Sia. Why is that kid here?’

She is casting a sharp, peering gaze at a black man who is trying to get close to her. The man, who was approaching with a mobile phone, is startled and steps back.

Citizens hold out their palms and desperately appeal that they have no malicious intent.

As the distance from the skit gradually got closer, it seemed as if she noticed me, and her eyes widened.

Even in the cold, subdued atmosphere in which this situation unfolded, she smiled brightly at me and began to approach me at breakneck speed.

“I’m a professor!!”

As if she had mistaken that my lunge was directed at her, she ran towards me with her face down and running around.

I made a mistake, but there was no time to correct it now, so I spoke urgently.

“What are you doing! Is it true that I conveyed everything I said?”

“Yes, yes! Oh, no. that… For the lifesaving teams… I asked for it to be delivered through a man who was wondering what it was, but I haven’t met the fireman and the Chinese person yet… .”

“… ?”

I could hear her strained voice, but I couldn’t immediately understand what she was saying.

It was because my brain refused to translate the true meaning of the voice as it dragged on and on, accompanied by sloppy breathing.

Why are you saying you never met this child?

We are now in the 21st century, an era dominated by cutting-edge science. There is no reason to meet and talk.

“… You can use the phone, right? What on earth have you done so far? ”

“That… I don’t know their phone numbers… Sorry, sorry.”

“… .”

I momentarily forgot what I was going to say and hit my forehead hard.

And right away, I had no choice but to admit that I had greatly overestimated Yoon Sia. that… Would you say that the way of thinking itself is different from that of ordinary people?

No, is it my fault? It was such a simple task, so was I stupid to feel safe and leave it to her who had a mental disability?

Students’ phone numbers should have been distributed as important information from the moment they entered school.

Of course, everyone, or at least some important people, should be registered.

It’s a bit too much to say that my only friends are Gochon Chicken advertisements and bank loan letters.

no! Even if you have no friends or are not close, it is normal to register the numbers of colleagues you fight with. At least that’s what I would have done.

“I’m sorry… .”

People flock around. The great hero Northmund and the dragon horn woman, who appears to be his disciple, are gathered together, and the sight of Northmund seemingly urging his disciple was suitable to stimulate the curiosity of the magistrates.

“… i get it. Let’s talk later.”

I sigh heavily and turn around. I was irritated, but I couldn’t be very angry at her who was holding her hands and lowering her head. I couldn’t say it was my fault for leaving it to her, so I had no choice but to chew my lip.

“Hmm?”

The moment I tried to focus my mana on my feet to jump out again. A clicking sound was heard from somewhere.

At the sound that sounded like something was sweeping metal, such as iron, I reflexively turned my head to find the source of the sound.

“Professor?”

For some reason, it seemed like I was the only one who heard the sound, and there was no one else but me looking around.

First of all, even Yoon Shia, who has superpowers, couldn’t hear that metallic sound, so she just gave me a puzzled look.

“Yun Sia.”

He called her name in a low voice. As if she realized something at that sound, her wide eyes narrowed sharply and looked around.

It was a sudden change of mood, as if a wild animal that had turned into a golden retriever with horns due to my appearance had returned to being a predator.

Now that I think about it, there are a lot of unfamiliar faces standing among the citizens of LA surrounding us.

At a glance, I could see that even though they were wearing ordinary T-shirts or jeans, there was something suspicious about them that I instinctively felt.

The moment I thought, “What is this?” and was about to go back, I felt something shining in the hand of the black man who had been flirting with Yoon Sia earlier, and I reflexively swung my great sword.

Suddenly!

“Ugh!”

The great sword, cut through the wind and struck at a speed that is difficult for humans to perceive, cuts off the black man’s hand and causes the middle of the great sword’s body to sink into the ground.

With an explosion, dust rises and pieces of stone bounce, and a severed hand falls with a thud.

My eyes turn to the object held by the severed hand.

” How dare you!!”

Yoon Si-ah becomes indignant after seeing that item. Because what was in his hand was a small silver pistol.

The original owner’s index finger was wrapped around the trigger of what appeared to be a revolver, but luckily I seemed to have managed to cut it off before it could be fired.

“This, this, this trash!!!”

I quickly looked around to see an extremely angry Yun Shia, in a demon-like form, charging at the black man who was clutching his severed arm and grimacing while making a groan.

“… What is this?”

I open my mouth. Even though they saw a person’s arm being cut off, they didn’t run away or scream and instead, they just surrounded us and raised a question.

As I spoke while frowning, each of them took out a pistol from their arms and pointed it at me.

“Northmund. I will eliminate you. How dare you betray the church and survive, devil? If you think of humans that easily, you’ll get seriously hurt. The Earth is our human home ground, you foolish devil.”

“Huh, me.”

“When I spoke with another demon archduke at the church, he said that the demon had already been expelled from the demon world a long time ago. Yeah, you just tricked us. This scammer.”

“Puhhh.”

I let out a bewildered laugh and curled my mouth towards the Asian man who proudly stood in front of me.

This feeling of absurdity is not just due to their misunderstanding. First of all, let alone the fact that I am the devil and all.

What he was holding in his hand was, of course, a pistol. That was the real reason for my laughter.

Could that pistol cause any damage to my body? It’s like giving a branch of a tree as a weapon to an expedition team sent to catch an evil dragon.

“Sia Yoon. Wake up.”

I called her over, who was screaming and still punching the body of a dead black man, and looked at the Asian man in front of me, who appeared to be a member of the circular religion, and made a pose with his fists clenched, showing his teeth.

The circular believer, who saw that he was mocking himself, spoke in a low voice.

“Yes. It might be funny now. But can you still smile when you see this?”

“I’m a professor!!”

Suddenly, the window of a car standing on the street opens and something sticks out. Not to be outdone, Yoon Shia reflexively jumps towards me.

RPG-7 appeared about 5 meters away.

Currently, most of Africa and the Middle East have been devastated, so the usage has decreased significantly, but the sudden appearance of the weapon is still a best-seller.

I was staring blankly at the unrealistic sight, a little amazed.

Pishuuk—!

The warhead is launched from the launch tube and flies towards this direction. After launch, the warhead’s wings unfold and Allah’s magic wand flies towards me.

And that magic wand.

With a bang, I was caught by Yoon Sia’s hand in such a futile manner.

“… Huh?”

“Huh?”

“… Uh oh.”

The woman herself, who caught the grenade, must have been surprised, as she hugged the grenade and had a blank expression on her face.

Perhaps because she had made a desperate decision to throw herself at her, she was looking in this direction in an awkward situation.

And as if the surprise was the same for the guy who threw the magic wand at me and the group of guys standing in front of me, they all had the same stupid expression as the dragon horn woman and just looked at the warhead in her arms.

“… Stupid things.”

I took the warhead from Yoon Si-ah’s arms and handed it to the Asian in front of me in a shaky pose.

Perhaps because he thought he was going to join me in martyrdom, the guy, who was posing with his hands together in a prayer-like pose, took the warhead I handed him with that dumbfounded expression on his face.

Looking at it like this, it looked like I was holding unripe corn.

“You can’t believe they’re shooting rockets this close.”

Yes.

Due to the nature of rocket propulsion, the departure speed of the warhead is not very fast. From what I remember, it was roughly 110m/s. Rather, it flies and receives acceleration under the influence of the booster.

Of course, it is a speed that an ordinary person cannot catch even if they know it, but it is not a speed that a person with the ability to control mana cannot catch.

If we look at it by the average person’s standards, it would be equivalent to catching a dodgeball flying towards you.

If you were going to attack me, it would have been better to shoot from far away. If that were the case, I would have reflexively deployed my shield or launched a slash and actively blocked it.

And that warhead.

Due to the process, it explodes naturally 5 seconds after launch.

Just like this.

Kwakwang—!

─Kaaa!

─Aaaah!

The guy who handed me the warhead was the first to be shattered, and the guys standing around were caught up in the aftermath and were blown away.

I clicked my tongue lightly at the sight of limbs flying away and becoming a mess along with blood.

These are probably deaths so outrageous that they deserve to be nominated for a Darwin Award.

Well, there are a lot of Darwin Award candidates who commit eccentric acts that are difficult to understand, so I don’t know if they will win the award.

In any case, it will not be possible to stop him from appearing in the newspapers as a sloppy terrorist who commits suicide with an RPG.

I laughed at the unsightly sight and quietly looked back at Yun Shia to see that she was taking off her tattered shoes.

Although it ended up being ridiculous, it seems like she was really sincere when she hit the floor so hard that her sneakers burst.

There was a large depression in the ground where she had landed, and it looked to be about 15 centimeters deep.

“Ugh… .”

It seems awkward to be barefoot on the street, or rather, I don’t know if it’s embarrassing to show myself like that.

I thought it was kind of cute to see her turn from a wild beast back into a retriever and lower her head.

I had been irritated with her just a moment ago, but my emotions were changing so quickly that I thought she might be bipolar, so I scratched my chin in embarrassment.

” Let’s go, we wasted too much time. ”

Those novice assassins held me captive for less than two minutes, but it was still something I shouldn’t delay.

He looked at her, nodded slightly, and kicked his feet again.

Of course, it is a side note that the sight of her capturing the RPG was captured on someone’s smartphone and became a hot topic as a new tube star.
