The golden beasts, who did not know how to give up and die, rushed toward the Gamecock, and it flashed its eyes sharply. There was no chance of it stepping back in front of an enemy that was coming to it, because it was filled with the fighting spirit to the bone.

The Gamecock, which would die fighting against a monster more powerful than itself, inflated its chest. Then it spat out what was in its chest through its golden beak.

Ki-oh-oh-oh! Along with countering the enemy's provocations, the Gamecock and the golden smoke beasts, which were protecting their owners, were once again tangled up. Meanwhile, Kim searched for a vehicle after he took a breath.

'A small car.' The road in Bucheon, once a tomb for automobiles, was now quite clean. It was thanks to the Mac Guild's constant cleaning of the road. Therefore, small cars were nowhere to be seen.

No, small cars were not seen in Korea originally.

Wasn't there a saying that it was much safer to walk on the roads in Korea than to ride in small cars?

However, he was not embarrassed.

'There's no time.' His fist blackened, and it immediately hit the wall of a building nearby.

Quasic! The exterior of the building was torn apart and collapsed. He floated a heavy piece out of the concrete mass, a little larger than a human body.

”Hoo!” Instead of gunshots, he let out a breath, and a lump of concrete smashed on the chest of the Gamecock.

It was also painful for the Gamecock. Ki-oh-oh-oh!

It was torture to be nailed where its heart was, and to be knocked on the heart by a hammer, it was no wonder that it cried out in fear. But the Gamecock was not scared, just surprised. There was no word for fear in it.

Ki-oh-oh-oh! Only fight! All its eyes were focused on punishing the golden beasts that attacked it without hesitation.

Burning! At such a fighting spirit, the Gamecock began to grow its crest, which had been dissipated by the powerful explosion a while ago, little by little.

'No way!' It was unexpected.

'Is anger making its crest faster?' The dying flame crest was going to be alive again, fueled by its fighting spirit!

'There's no time.' Naturally, the Gamecock was likely to show release its explosion again much earlier than he had expected.

After the explosion?

All he could do was run away from Bucheon with all his strength. Of course, returning after a certain period of time… The Gamecock would be the owner of Bucheon and turn Bucheon into a miserable tomb that humans could not live in. The people in Incheon would not be safe, either. Everything he had done so far would go beyond meaningless and become miserable.

”Hoo!” That's why he got his breath back.

'Pierce.' He focused his attention and made his mind as clear as possible. He painted only the picture he wanted with a clear mind. The painting depicted only its chest, where a huge concrete mass was raging, and where the Sword of the Imperator was piercing. He did not hurry. He flew the stones one at a time calmly, like one drop of water piercing the rock.

Boom! His repeated efforts were clearly visible.

Boom! The Sword of the Imperator put all of its long blade into the body of the Gamecock, leaving only the hilt showing.

Of course, his repeated attacks have become a threat to the Gamecock. It felt its life was at stake. That was why its fighting spirit was so intense.

Ki-oh-oh!

'A mouse bites a cat if it is cornered, and how about the last pitch when a terrible monster is in a corner?'

Wharrrr! It must be so intense that it would be unimaginable.

Ki-oh-oh! The chest cavity of the Gamecock, which burst out with a long cry, had risen greatly.

Boom, boom! At the same time, the fire that had faded over its head began to soar like a fountain. There was no room to react.

'Ah…' As soon as he was aware of the fact, the Gamecock again caused a huge explosion.

Kwa-reung! An explosion that was more intense than the one before it began to sweep around the Gamecock.

Kuh-hung! The golden smoke beasts that fought against the Gamecock evaporated in an instant, and buildings around it collapsed in the explosion. The force of the explosion was not just fire. The explosion had an enormous amount of horror and hostility. It was the release of a powerful fear.

He was at a distance, but it was so powerful that his body stiffened up as he vomited blood.

'Oh, my God.' His Energy began to work hard to save its owner's body, who was frozen by fear. The Gilt-bronze Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva Statue, which he held in his hands, also filled his empty body.

'… broken.' But already, the jar of his body was broken. He couldn't help it. A while ago, he was using his power to the limit. There was no room for something to fill his body. Under such circumstances, it would be strange if his body, which was exposed to the sudden explosion and fear, remained strong. A jar without a bottom was of course not easily filled.

'Think.' Nevertheless, he sought a solution at this moment.

'The Bell-tail.' And he found it.

'If I hit the hilt with the Bell-tail…' The Bell-tail of the Bell-tail Rat! With its amazing batting power, he could drive the Sword deep enough! Of course, there should be a hammer and someone to use it. And there was only one person who was qualified to move in the fear that was shaking even his body.

'Kate.'

And she knew it.

”Fuck!” So at this moment, she rushed toward the Gamecock with the mace made of the Bell-tail which Bang Hyun-wook was holding, releasing strong power and hurling abuse at the temporarily daunted monster.

'This will pay off all my debts. All of them!' She hammered the Sword of the Imperator, of where only the hilt could be seen, with the weapon she held in her hands, into the breast of the Gamecock. Then, for the first time, the terminal word came out of its mouth.

Cock-a-doodle-doo!It was a chicken cry that woke everyone from a nightmare.

14.

'Nonsense.' As soon as the Gamecock started its second blast, Major Oh lowered his posture while watching the battle. For a while afterward, he was stiff. He waited for his Energy to energize his frozen body so that he wouldn't miss out on the reason while paralyzed

When Major Oh rose up and looked at the battlefield through a telescope, what he saw was the last appearance of the Gamecock, which was more appropriate to say, it was more collapsing than falling.

'What the hell happened?' Without seeing the interim process, he could not understand the situation at all. Instead, he knew what he had to do at this moment.

'I have to run away at once.'

Clearly, the Gamecock was dead. It was not in any of the plans. Of course, his actions in this situation had not been instructed either. It was not a situation which he could judge for his own, and act according to that judgment.

In this case, the answer was to withdraw as soon as possible. He saw the two men had fainted as soon as they were exposed to the explosion of the Gamecock.

It seemed impossible to wake them up right away, with foam in their mouths and white eyes. It didn't seem easy, either.

No, he could bring them away. For an Awakener, the weight of the two adult men would be only two school bags. However, the problem was that it would be annoying and dangerous to run away without catching the attention of people around, with their cumbersome bodies.

So he took the gun out of his waist without hesitation and pulled the trigger.

Blam, blam! With only the sound of two shots left behind, he immediately turned and went out through the door. There was no time to keep his composure when he stepped out.

'That's crazy. What am I supposed to report? No, no. How the hell did he kill it? No, wait a minute. So that monster will eat the monster stone of the blue-grade monster?'

Of course, Major Oh could not afford to check the existence of an action camera of Gopro around the door, either.
