Chapters Chapter 297: Kang Chul-In Vs. Desdemona (3) (1/2)
Indeed. What Kang Chul-In had cut wasn’t Desdemona’s actual body but only a decoy.
“I was almost tricked.”
Kang Chul-In was surprised at how clean the decoy was. Desdemona’s decoy was extremely realistic.
“It would be perfect if the touch wasn’t different.”
Yes, the touch. Kang Chul-In had cut countless people in his current life and past life combined. Even if it was a decoy that a dragon had made, it was impossible to trick Kang Chul-In when it came to killing something.
“Hm?”
On the throne, Desdemona lifted a corner of her mouth.
“A mere human dares to judge my magic?”
“You’re only a lizard but you’re so arrogant.”
“L-Lizard?”
“My subordinate says you’re a dragon. So isn’t a dragon a lizard?”
Just then, Drakan murmured quietly from his fainted position.
“Y-Your Majesty… so what I meant is… keuk…”
Drakan was hit with an unexpected attack by Kang Chul-In.
“Ha…”
Desdemona laughed. It was the composure of the strong. To her, humans were just bugs that she could step on and kill at any moment.
“You’re pretty arrogant, huh? Human?”
“Isn’t it arrogant for a lizard to judge a human?”
However, Kang Chul-In didn’t bend to her. How could someone from Earth know about a true dragon that even Pangaeans didn’t know about? From Kang Chul-In’s perspective, Desdemona was only a mutant lizard that could turn into a speaking human.
“You really want to die, hm? It wasn’t enough to hit-and-run but you want to blabber in front of me?”
“Where did the hit-and-run thing come from?”
Kang Chul-In asked Desdemona. He didn’t know why he had to be implicated as a hit-and-runner when he was all for safe driving.
“Are you asking because you don’t know?”
“...?
“Well, fine, I’ll tell you. You’ll feel less wronged if you know why you died.”
Desdemona had a tray brought over.
“Video play.”
Then, she casted a spell.
-I’m raising the altitude, so everyone go back inside!
In the playing video, he could see himself disappearing after hitting Desdemona’s lair.
“Ah?”
Kang Chul-In realized why the lizard was calling him a hit-and-runner.
“That’s nothing.”
However, his reaction was shameless.
“I guess lizards are pretty small-minded, huh?”
“What?”
“Tsk tsk… you’re making such a mess just because a part of your roof was broken. No, shouldn’t you pay for the damage done to the lower part of our castle?”
If the other side requested a reasonable amount, Kang Chul-In would’ve given it. But Desdemona was different. She had invaded his wife’s home and was beating up his subordinates. They had gone beyond the point of striking a deal.
Why, you ask? Because Kang Chul-In’s temper was as fiery as a dragon’s.
Shake shake…!
Desdemona trembled at Kang Chul-In’s attitude.
“You dare!”
A sharp sound rang out in the Lord’s Hall.
“Keuk!”
“...!”
Everyone clutched their chests and plopped down at Desdemona’s angry shout. Dragon Fear. It was a force that wasn’t possible for a “fake dragon” to have. Even if it wasn’t her actual body, it was powerful.
“You dare...”
Only Kang Chul-In was unaffected by the Dragon Fear.
“You dare to scream in my wife’s home?”
At the same time, Kang Chul-In caused a sonic boom and dashed at Desdemona.
Chrwak!
A knife-like wind whirled around Desdemona from Kang Chul-In.
Crumble!
Ninetails’s throne crumbled to pieces.
It was then.
When had she appeared?
“With that weak attack...”
Desdemona smiled coldly, having dug into Kang Chul-In’s blind spot by teleporting.
“You were trying to kill me? You arrogant human?”
Desdemona aimed a fist towards Kang Chul-In’s left ribs.
Danger!
Kang Chul-In crossed Kaiforce and Mitra to block the fist.
Clanggg!
A large explosive sound that almost ripped the surrounding people’s eardrums rang out.
“Keuk!”
A pained groan escaped from Kang Chul-In’s mouth.
An extraordinary destructive power!
He had definitely blocked it. But the hands with the swords in them, his arms, and even his sides throbbed. His sides just throbbed but he felt like his internal organs were being crushed.
“Ha, you blocked it?”
Desdemona grinned and began an additional attack.
She gripped his collar and threw him forcefully to the ground.
“I’ll make you into sausage!”
How dare she!
Swish!
Kang Chul-In immediately used fancy acrobatic skills to escape Desdemona’s grip. He was falling short on strength? Then he would win with tact. Kang Chul-In was a martial artist who had seen thousands of battlefields. That could make Desdemona, a dragon with no fighting experience who had been sleeping for a thousand years, bend down to him.
Chrwak!
Kaiforce was swung at Desdemona’s waist.
“Do you really think…”
Just when Desdemona was about to mock Kang Chul-In again,
Swoosh!
The sword of light, Mitra, aimed precisely at Desdemona’s open spot.
“...!”
While Desdemona’s eyes were filled with shock, with an ominous sound, a drop of blood slid down Desdemona’s arm.
