Chapter 87: Get Over Here (1/2)
Nile's attack got halted midway because of the rope that had coiled in his hand.
Nile frowned and clicked his tongue in annoyance. Nile did not look at the middle-aged man but instead, he decided to fully unleash his strength.
Ever since he fought or rather, trashed the robber group earlier, Nile was now able to slightly control his strength. His slight control only falls to the category of being restrained, and then fully unleashed.
Earlier, Nile was only using the restrained version to pierce the young man. Nile was not being overconfident. He knew how strong he is compared to the two. He just wanted to use every opportunity that comes to him to the fullest.
It was also the reason why the young man was able to dodge it, as along with his strength was the reduction of his speed.
Nile aimed and pierced the young man shrieking in pain again. However, this time, he used all of his strength.
The young man was still screaming in pain when a blade pierced his mouth. The blade had pierced all the way to the back of the young man's head.
The rope that was restraining Nile's hand earlier could do nothing than to be pulled along with Nile's strike. The middle-aged man, of course, was the same. His body was pulled along with the rope that he was holding, and just when his body was about to collide with Nile, it was also at that moment that Nile pulled the Kriegsmesser's blade on the young man's mouth.
The hilt of the Kriegsmesser hit the middle-aged man squarely in the face. The middle-aged man's face wobbled as a result of the hit. His body then got thrown away to where it stood earlier.
The rope tightened again, along with the middle-aged man's body's sudden stop. The middle-aged man then screamed in agony as his body sprawled to the cold ground.
Nile picked up the squirming young man on his collar and raised him high. He was still alive but the young man's mouth keeps on jolting out fresh blood like a fountain. Nile could tell that aside from wanting to breathe, the young man also wanted to scream out the pain he felt. But because of the blood, he could not.
Nile raised his Kriegsmesser and pierced the young man's head. The young man convulsed for a few seconds before he finally died. Nile threw his body to the side as he sauntered towards the middle-aged man.
While approaching, Nile had noticed that the middle-aged man was already recovering from the pain he was feeling. Still, he was on the ground clutching his broken face.
Seeing the middle-aged man like that, Nile could help but think of how OP the Kriegsmesser's extra function was. Even the hilt was still supported by the extra function of increasing a person's pain.
Nile could not deny how useful this Kriegsmesser is. Its extra function was equivalent to a bewitching spell. If you are hit with it, you can be rendered immobile because of its effect.
Just like what had happened to the young man from before. As he was feeling a terrifying pain from his armpit, he could not think clearly and did not manage to dodge the second time. Well, not that he could still dodge anyway, but if he was not rendered immobile by the pain, he might still want to try.
At the moment, the rope was still coiled in Nile's hand. Nile must admit that this rope is pretty sturdy. After that much of a stress, it was still holding in his hand like a suction cup.
The rope had a thickness of an inch and a length of up to 7 meters. At the rope's end was a sharp hook. When the middle-aged man threw the rope in Nile's hand earlier, the rope had coiled in his arm in an instant. The hook had also locked itself on the rope in an instant, hence the reason why it was still clinging in Nile's hand.
When Nile arrived close to the middle-aged man, the middle-aged man had already stopped whining. The middle-aged man noticed Nile and glared at him hatefully.
Nile was just about to take another step closer when he noticed a glint on the man's eyes. The middle-aged man rolled in the ground a few meters away from Nile. It was then followed by the middle-aged man, forcefully pulling the rope in the hopes of pulling Nile's body over.
However, try as he might, he could just not budge Nile's body. Nile stared at him like he was an idiot. Nile just stood there and watched him trying to pull the rope but without a result.
Nile gloats at him while switching the hand holding the Kriegsmesser. after switching, the Kriegsmesser of Agony was now on Nile's left hand. Nile produced a smirk and said mockingly, ”Nice try.”
The middle-aged man had at this point realized the situation he was in. The man in front of him was powerful. The middle-aged man estimates that Nile was not any less strong than his boss. His body trembled as he realized that he's gonna die.
Flashes of memories suddenly appeared in his mind, including the one he had experienced earlier. He could not help but think of how unlucky he was for being tasked with the trio's search. 'If the boss did not choose me for this search. I might still be in bed right now with that girl.'
