At first, Hwahong seemed to be at a disadvantage, but as time passed, the situation changed. Unlike the Byulcho Alliance, which had its numbers decreased one by one, Hwahong’s numbers did not go down. The sunbae asked with an urging expression…
“What happened? Why did Hwahong’s numbers not decrease?”
“I-It’s increasing! Rather than increase- they rose from the dead-”
“Golem! The iron golem!”
It was due to Crowley. He was raising iron golems using the armor or sword of the corpses regardless if they were enemies or allies.
Additionally, the blood golem served as healer and dealer at the same time, it absorbed the blood of the enemies and gave them to nearby allies.
Hwahong’s momentum grew stronger, however, it did not overwhelm Byulcho, because of the golems.
“Take out the ones who are destroying the golems, especially the eye-catching ones! The one who runs around in black or white armor over there!”
“Waah?! Divine magic! He looks like a tank, but he’s dealing more damage than dealers! The two-handed swordsman running behind the white armor is no joke! They’re in sync.”
They were Sasuke, Kijung, and Tale. What kind of expression would he have made if Leeha had seen it?
Even for them, this final battle was unavoidable. Unlike other guild members who fought in groups, only Kijung and Tale worked together.
Because no one wanted to be with them, who had already been branded as ‘traitors’.
“I don’t know how many golems they destroyed. They are almost like tanks …”
The iron golems matched the number of people Hwahong lacked, however, it could not match the strength of humans. While Kijung pushed the iron golems with shield charging, Tale stabbed precisely and destroyed their cores.
Crowley alone did the job of several people, however, it wasn’t as effective as Kijung and Tale’s combination.
Ram Hwayeon and Ram Hwajung tried to assist, however, the guild masters of the Byulcho Alliance blocked them.
The Byulcho Alliance was not as easy as they expected. Because they arrived at the canyon first, they were able to utilize the geographical features for small-scale siege battles. The flow of the battle was even more visible to the two people filming above the canyon.
“I’m leaning… towards the Koreans winning!”
“Kuu, the Koreans are determined to block the capital intrusion of the global conglomerates after all- hmm? S-Sunbae!”
“…What is that?!”
The joy was short-lived. Seeing the large number of people running over the canyon, the two were stunned. Their clothes were all yellow.
“Huu, huu, we are good at fighting, right?”
“So this is what it means to not fight Koreans…”
Ram Hwayeon accepted Hyein’s words.
They thought it was worth trying, but their battle capabilities were different than they had guessed.
With Ram Hwajung and Crowley, she thought that they would be able to survive at 4:6 even if it was a little disadvantageous…. Now the ratio of forces between Hwahong and Byulcho was 2:8.
The 600 members of the Byulcho Alliance far exceeded the average combat power that mid-level users could produce.
Still, Ram Hwayeon did not panic.
“It’s fortunate. Because the better they fight, the better my judgememt is.”
“What?”
“Jachung! The time?”
“29 minutes and 47 seconds had passed since the start of the battle. 13 seconds left.”
Jachung deliberately said the time in a loud voice. Hyein’s expression darkened.
“Damn it…”
“Hoho, right. That’s it.”
Ram Hwayeon stopped laughing and shot a fire arrow toward the sky. Everyone’s attention suddenly went up and focused on the flare.
Come! Come!
Cries of people echoed through the canyon. The enemies’ shadows lined up from where the cries came from.
“Fuck… again…”
“H-Hwangryong again? Pei Wu?”
“They’re over the cliff! They won’t be able to come all the way here anyway! It’s not possible with that distance!”
The guild members of the Byulcho Alliance fell into confusion. A sound was heard over the cliff.
If it was Pei Wu, it would be unavoidable to make a commotion if they did not want to go the way normal users go.
“Pei Wu!!!”
The 4th in the level ranking answered.
“Hwangryong, come(黃能-來來）!” Wooosh-!
Pei Wu flew, followed by the 888 elite members of the Hwangryong guild. They jumped fearlessly from the height that would make onlookers sweat.
“They’ve fallen off!”
“Even if they don’t die, they should lose at least half their health! Focus on Hwangryong-”
Flutter, flutter, flutter…
The Byulcho Alliance was still hopeful, until small parachutes opened from Hwangryong members’ back.
However, once the 888 users landed safely on the ground with reduced speed and behind the Byulcho Alliance, they lost their hope.
Hwahong in front, and Hwangryong in the back.
In the literal sense of the word, byeolcho Alliance was pushed back into the corner.
“Fufu, this is it… Isn’t it the same as in Tiwi Canyon? You must have thought of capturing us before Hwangryong came… it’s still lacking, Hyein.”
Ram Hwayeon laughed. In fact, it was safe to say that the battle was over. As long as Pei Wu was involved, byeolcho Alliance’s chance of winning was 0%.”
“The same as last time? As expected… Ram Hwayeon might be a great businessman, however, you will not be a lord in Middle Earth.”
“What?”
However, Hyein did not back down. His face which had been gloomy before suddenly became brighter.
“You thought I blocked the space to make Hwangryong jump right? However, do you remember how I did it?”
“Come to think of it…”
The space was not locked.
Hyein always blocked the space from the beginning to prevent reinforcements from coming during battle. But this time? He only used attack or defense magic, and did not lock space.
“Ram Hwayeon-nim, Ram Hwajung-nim. All 888 Hwangryong members have arrived safely.”
At the same time, Pei Wu, who bypassed the the Byulcho Alliance, stood beside Ram Hwayeon. Hearing Hyein and Hwayeon, hwajeong’s expression, who had been quiet, hardened.
“Unni! Quick!”
“Huh? W-What is it?”
“Ahahaha, did you notice it? As expected of the damned Ice Witch, but it’s too late!”
Hyein already started casting. Particles of light entered his body. Attack magic? Ram Hwayeon and Ram Hwajung hurriedly raised their wands.
“Kuhahaha, goodbye, Pei Wu!”
Pei Wu? As Hwayeon listened to Hyein’s laughter-mixed cry her face distorted.
Why did Hyein wait? Why did Hyein continue the battle without locking the space. Did he not use space locking to save mana? That wasn’t it!
Hyein was a sage, a job specialized in space magic! In addition, he was also ranked in the top 100 in the world rankings!
“Enforce Teleport!”
“No!!!!!”
Space magic that contained all of Hyein’s mana was cast. Light-purple magic shone on the ground where Pei Wu stood.
“This…. Shwaaak-!”
Pei Wu noticed it, but it was already too late. The world’s best martial artist, who led Hwangryong’s 888 elites, disappeared from the canyon.
He was forcefully moved! The sage’s magic blew the target away to a random location regardless of the target’s will!
The Byulcho Alliance did not think of something as frivolous as catching Ram Hwayeon and Ram Hwajung before Hwangryong came.
They just directly removed the greatest threat from the battle!
“Haa, haa, haa…… Lock the space!!! The Byulcho Alliance, our counterattack begins! Pei Wu is no longer here! Pei Wu is not here!”
Chwak, chwak-!
Dozens of scrolls were torn in an instant and enveloped the canyon. They didn’t even know where Pei Wu disappeared to in the continent.
No matter how much space he moved to get somewhere nearby, it would still take time.
“T-This is crazy, with numbers-”
No, don’t be afraid! There are still a lot of us! Jachung! Go and lead Hwangryong! The main forces of Hwahong will be the anvil, so you can hammer them from the back! Hurry, before the main forces collapse!”
“Understood, guild master-nim!”
Jachung flew away.
Ram Hwayeon’s spirit did not allow even a moment of hesitation. Although Pei Wu disappeared, the 888 Hwangryong elites still with them.
Now, Hwahong and Hwangryong had about 1000 people. Compared to Byulcho Alliance’s 400.
Ram Hwayeon realized that they had more than twice the number advantage even if Pei Wu was excluded.
And there was no way that Hyein did not know that.
“Did you think I don’t know that?”
“What?”
Paa- paa- paa-….
“We brought Hwahong to the canyon. The path is limited… When Hwangryong came to help, we sent Pei Wu away and locked the space… It must be at least an hour before Pei Wu comes back.”
A smile spread across Hyein’s face. Noise that could cover his words began to be heard from the entrance of the canyon.
“Well, even though I didn’t think that Hwangryong would come down from the cliff, it doesn’t change anything. After all, it’s not Hwangryong that we need to catch, it’s Hwahong and you bitches. When the space is locked, you bitches won’t be able to escape. We only have to block the exit.”
Paa- paa- paa-!
“Unni, behind you!”
“G-Guild master-nim! People are approaching quickly from behind- no, it’s an army-!”
“What? Who?”
A commotion broke out in the midst of Hwahong. It was not yet visible to Ram Hwayeon, however, just looking at Hyein’s laugh gave an ominous feeling.
“Hey, Ram Hwayeon. Didn’t you say it before? Isn’t this battle similar to Tiwi Canyon? But other than locking space, was there anything different from last time?”
“No… no way…”
A person she did not want to think of even in her dreams. No, she remembered the giant’s face.
“Kuhahahaha-! Those Kitai bastards don’t have Pei Wu, right?! I will cut them all up and eat them!”
“A… Ag…”
“Agromni Igor!”
“Igor-!”
Agromni Igor appeared. However, it was different from his sudden intrusion last time, this time, he was allied with the Byulcho Alliance.
Standing at the entrance of the canyon was Igor and the elites of the Russian guild ‘Czar’.
Ram Hwayeon knew it instinctively. The space was locked, and the escape route was blocked. They did not have any plan B anymore. The war will definitely end in this canyon.
With the defeat of Hwahong and Hwangryong.
Kyaaaah—!!
The berserker ran with a roar.
