Chapter 263 (1/2)
“Ink dragon...?”
It seemed that Mido had succeeded. This was the killing technique of Imitator of Light that I had told Mido about. It was a huge deal that a single constellation could artificially create a dragon. Monet, a painter who used to draw with light until he lost the light. Then he used shadow ink to imitate light. Originally, a maximum of 100 soldiers could be created with shadow ink, but if I remembered correctly, an ink dragon cost 50. Fortunately, Monet seemed to favor Mido.
The ink dragon roared toward the sky once again. However, there was a powerful magic in the sound. My ears seemed to ring and at the same time, strength was drained out of my body.
“Groan.”
[You have been hit by the Fear of the ink dragon.]
[Fear reduces all stats by 20%.]
[You won’t be able to move for five seconds.]
“What? Why attack us?”
[The first apostle, ‘Prometheus,’ is shouting at you to avoid it!]
“......!”
It was in the blink of an eye.
The roaring ink dragon opened its mouth and fired a Breath at me. A ray of black light passed over my head. The black ink Breath devastated everything in a straight line. I couldn’t move my body because of the Dragon Fear, but fortunately, I wasn’t the target.
The target was the golem where the ice had melted away. The upper body was swept away. The golem with an open chest collapsed without strength like a poorly constructed structure. The golem collapsed with a howl.
[The US team’s golem has been destroyed.]
[The remaining time until the next golem is summoned is 10 minutes.]
[10:00]
“Sigh.”
[The first apostle, ‘Prometheus,’ is saying that it is somehow ominous.]
“It is Mido’s first time, so she can’t control the dragon.”
[The first apostle, ‘Prometheus,’ is saying that it is still ominous.]
“Tsk. Stop repeating it.”
I walked toward the ink soldiers slowly approaching. I could also see Mido walking over with her sword drawn. Just then, the other Korean team members arrived. They emerged on Mido’s side and ran toward her.
“Mido, is that your ability? Amazing!”
“What? Another Kitty? In any case, you really love Kitty.”
“Is it the ability to turn Kitty into soldiers?” Isn’t it amazing?”
“Look over there. The US team is frozen!”
“Wow. Grandfather, amazing.”
They were reaching Mido ahead of me. They had collected more than 30 magic cores. This would be enough to destroy the US team’s castle in the next attack.
“Mido, I also like Kitty...”
There was the sound of something cutting through Lim Sara. She was unaware of what happened as blood flowed from her mouth.
“......!”
“......!”
“......!”
The sword wounds on them spread and blood spurted like a fountain. It was like seeing a blooming flower of blood.
[The first apostle, ‘Prometheus,’ says that he knew it.]
Damn. What was going on...?
“......!”
Mido made eye contact with me and in an instant, she launched a distant sword technique. Sharp, half-moon sword energies poured toward me several times. I quickly used Blade Wind to escape at high speed while still looking in her eyes. Her eyes were looking into the air and seemed empty.
...Don’t tell me, was she being manipulated? I could see the sword in her hand moving like the wind. It was definitely Bloody Butcher, but it was a bit different. It was a strange shape that grew due to the blood. What the hell was going on?
[The first apostle, ‘Prometheus,’ is telling you to use Insight.]
“Insight.”
I forgot since I hadn’t used it for a long time. Mido’s stats were at the beginning, but I went down to the bottom.
[*Currently being controlled by her constellation.]
She was being controlled?
[The first apostle, ‘Prometheus,’ is frowning.]
It was the same for me.
If my memories were correct, the third-grade Monet didn’t have this ability.
“......!”
Just then, Mido raised one hand with an empty expression. She gathered the blood that had fallen around her and released a tornado with a strong rotation.
“Crazy.”
The blood tornado came as if it had predicted my movements. This was when Solar appeared in front of me, emitting light and creating a huge explosion. Fortunately, I was immune to fire so I didn’t receive any damage. However, the backlash from the explosion was inevitable. I quickly rolled across the ground and stood up. The blood tornado was offset by the explosion and had already disappeared.
Prometheus possessed Solar and shouted, “This stupid old man! This is why I’ve been telling you that I have an ominous feeling!”
“Shut up, this guy. I’m going to become deaf!”
It wasn’t over yet.
The Kitty soldiers carried weapons and rushed to this area.
“Prometheus, take care of them.”
“Old man, what are you going to do?”
“I have to stop Mido.”
I rode the wind and appeared behind Mido. It was painful, but I decided to hurt myself in order to stop Mido. Blade Wind poured over her. First of all, I wanted her to let go of the sword she was holding. The attack aimed at Mido’s right arm flew. Dozens of cuts were engraved on Mido’s right arm and blood gushed out. The problem was the blood started attacking me again.
