Volume 7 – Disjunction

 

Chapter 5

Suddenly, in the midst of the destruction, the host’s body squirmed as it stood up inside the sewage.

The vicinity around the left chest, where it was hit by Haneul’s fist, was smashed open and its insides were showing. Yet, surprisingly, the flesh started twisting and overlapping against each other, as it quickly began to heal itself.

‘Does it mean that a human’s body is just a shell?’

The mystical power known as magic is capable of increasing recovery rate through the explosive use of a person’s vitality. This is the reason why Heroes are able to quickly heal themselves, even if they damage their membranes. However, the speed was not to that extent. That is just abnormal.

Haneul continued to watch the situation with a defensive stance. As he did, the main body also decided to continue watching the situation as it kept its distance.

A newly evolved body.

There was a newly evolved parasitic host in front of its eyes, and it was too perfect to overlook.

(Djinn – guess the little sucker evolved itself)

In response to its desire, the host body quickly rushed forward.

Haneul figured, that there was a high chance that the Dominator wasn’t going to back off.

‘It’s time to end this.’

Due to the Dominator’s main body, the modified host’s attack power was incredible. Especially its movement speed and reaction speed, they exceeded one’s imaginations. However, it was plain to see that those movements weren’t natural.

The host body released its limit, and all the magic that it absorbed from the other Heroes exploded forth. But, that was all.

If a body without any balance was to release its limits in speed, its muscles would rupture and fracture. Not only that, but it would also lead to the degradation of its comprehensive abilities.

The host’s body was now moving much slower than it did in the beginning. It was very noticeable, and Haneul was waiting for the moment its abilities would start to degrade.

“Right for this moment!!”

KOOONNGG!

Haneul kicked the ground hard with his left foot and rushed forth. His speed was faster and sharper than the host’s.

Powerful magic quickly migrated from his foot to his arm.

At the next moment, his arm shot out.

A whirlwind wrapped around Haneul as it vaporized all of the water. And, with a burst of power, he struck the host’s stomach. The aftereffect of the magic that was prepared just for this moment didn’t stop there as it continued up into the sky.

“GGI GI GI!”

The Dominator (main body) quickly tried to run. However, it was too late. The explosive power caused a chain of explosions to occur, as if it was meant to destroy everything. And, the main body that tried to run away, was swept away by it.

Kwang Kwang Kwang!

An incredible shockwave shot forth.

“Huk!”

Ironman drew his breath in. The heat was so intense that it felt like his face was melting and he quickly retreated. However, at that moment, a gust of angry winds swarmed in, faster than Ironman could retreat. Not being able to bear it any longer, Ironman flew back.

Even though his eyes were shut, Ironman was able to vividly see the overwhelming tornado of magic around Silver Knight; just as if his eyes were open.

“R, red dragon…….”

The image of a huge fire red dragon could be seen wrapping up towards the heavens and illuminating the dark skies.

Cheeeeeeeeeeeeeeek.

With a clang, Haneul’s right fist released a distinctly white steam.

It was over.

The sensation of the energy disappearing from the point of origin.

Haneul had a hunch.

The fight was over.

And, Ironman who was at the scene barely got up, and walked his way over to Haneul. It was too thrilling. Especially at the last moment, it was too overwhelming.

Ironman had no way to understand Silver Knight’s limits. However, there was only one thing he could say at this point.

“Th, thanks for your work. Everything is finally over. Silver Knight, you should get some rest now.”

“I think the main body is dead, but the fight isn’t over yet. There are still many of those wicked things left over at the hospital. If they’re not disposed of quickly, there may be more casualties.”

With an unsettled heart, Haneul looked up towards the hole in the sky. Because of his burst of power, the sky was torn through.

At that moment, Ironman grabbed Haneul’s shoulder.

Cheeekk.

“What are you doing?!”

Haneul quickly retreated.

His whole body was still emanating an intense amount of heat. That heat had yet to disperse, so it was very dangerous for someone to touch him right now.

At least until it dissipated.

“Silver Knight, you’ve done enough for today.”

“……”

“It’s enough. You’re not the only Hero here right now. There’s no reason to try and handle everything by yourself.”

“That’s not it. I’m just trying to fight, because I know that the fight’s not over yet.”

“That is a problem for the other Heroes. You’ve done your part for today. I may be overstepping my boundaries, but I’ll still say it. It would be best for you to just return home and rest for the day. I’m sure you’re already exhausted. Don’t overdo it anymore.”

Haneul felt as if he was being saved.

He wanted to rest.

His whole body was heavy, more so his mentality than his physical body. His head was full of thoughts of wanting to rest, but knowing that there was still work to be done, his mind was tied up.

“I am a Hero. As a Hero…..”

“I told you. You’re not the only Hero. Please rest. It is also a Hero’s job to control oneself and to get some rest. Especially so, if it’s a Hero of your caliber. If that’s not it, does it mean that you can’t place your faith into other Heroes?”

“………”

Haneul could not respond back.

The words Ironman used to tell him to rest, were spinning around in his head.
