Who Stole The Empress Chapter 112

Chapter 112. With both feet

 

 

At an unexpected time, in an unexpected place, an unexpected monster appeared.

 

The only fortunate thing was that only one of them, not several, made an appearance.

 

Arghhhhhhhh!

 

Every time Perharz exhaled roughly, a green poisonous mist erupted.

 

Even the breath it exhaled was a poisonous monster.

 

Its body was about the same as the other monsters, but its attack power was on a different level.

 

Roselyn and Tamon sank their bodies with tension.

 

This was the first time the two of them had seen a Perharz in person.

 

Since it was, they couldn't quite believe it when they saw it in person themselves.

 

It had poisonous green horns, three ugly eyes that moved in all directions, and even a tail that lived and moved like a limb.

 

“How do the records say you killed that thing?”

 

“The tail…..so, we have to get rid of that tail first. If we cut off the tail, it would set off the balance.”

 

“What about the strength of the skin?”

 

“It's strong enough to be penetrated by Laxicon. But it said that the resilience was terrifying.”

 

“So we have to kill it before it recovers?”

 

Just grazing those green horns will start the necrosis of the skin.

 

The tail moved like a tentacle to block the opponent's movements.

 

“I'll deal with it by myself, so stay back.”

 

“But……………………” 

 

“Are you going to make me into a man who can't handle that alone?”

 

At Tamon's arrogant smile, Roselynn had no choice but to keep her mouth shut.

 

She believed Tamon.

 

She believed in his strength and pride.

 

She knew that he was not a man who would fall down easily in front of any enemy.

 

Roselyn's lips tightened and retreated, carefully watching him.

 

 

Perhaps that was the signal that made the monster's tail move.

 

Not wanting to miss her, its long, snake-like tail leapt towards her.

 

“Oh, you're making fun of me, aren't you?”

 

Tamon took out his sword, which he had hidden near his sleeping bag.

 

It was his favorite sword for close range combat.

 

It was shorter than a long sword, longer than a dagger, and the blade was sharp.

 

The blade of the sword was made of synthetic Laxicon, and the handle of the sword was covered with silver antler deerskin.

 

He quickly skimmed the scattered tails.

 

Then, he grabbed the one remaining tail with his hand.

 

“Just play with me only.”

 

He wrapped it around his hand and wrist like a whip, then ran in the opposite direction of where Roselyn was and yanked the tail.

 

Ahhhhh!

 

The force was stronger than he expected, and Perharz's stocky body was pulled toward Tamon.

 

As if that made it angry, Perharz exposed it.

 

A green smoke flowed from the rough breathing.

 

It was an inherent poison that Perharz possessed. 

 

The green spewing out was getting darker and darker.

 

Fortunately, neither Tamon nor Roselyn would get the poison.

 

Because it was Tamon who had the power of life, which itself neutralized the toxicity, and because Roselyn had a protective chain.

 

Fiddling with her necklace, Roselyn watched carefully as Tamon and the monster engaged in a flesh-and-blood battle.

 

The guardian chain could protect her to a certain extent, but there was nothing she could do about the flying debris from the extreme fighting.

 

Moreover, the monster, as if to prove that it had three eyes, constantly extended its tail towards her while fighting Tamon.

 

“D*mn, that's a troublesome tail!”

 

Tamon, who was pushed back to the tree behind him by Perharz's attack, jumped up to block Roselyn.

 

There was only one monster, but because of that tentacle-like tail, he was flopping around like he was dealing with several of them at once.

 

“Asha! Go over there!”

 

The black hole still hadn't disappeared, leaving an insidious hole gaping open.

 

As the gap widened, the surrounding terrain collapsed, and trees around the pit collapsed.

 

Even the horses, which were tied to the huge trees with no gaps between them, were running wild as the battle began. Tamon's beloved horse, who was relatively well trained, was excited to be on the ground, but the horse Roselyn rode was different.

 

'If I leave it like that, the horse will run away.'

 

Among her belongings, which she had unloaded near the horse, was the Laxicon bow and arrows she had received from the king of Amor.

 

She had to go over that gap, as Tamon said.

 

But …………………

 

Roselyn stared at the black gap with her pale face.

 

'Can I get over that huge hole?'

 

It was wide enough for a normal person to climb over.

 

It was long and wide but if she jumped over it with all her might, it would be wide enough for Arsene or a child to climb over.

 

'But with my legs… would that be possible?'

 

While Roselyn flinched, the tail extended towards her once more.

 

Tamon hastily lifted his sword high and swung the tail down with all his might.

 

With red and black blood, one of the tails was cut off. The tail flapped on the floor as if it was alive even after being cut.

 

This caused the blood to splatter from the cut area. The soil with the monster's blood on it and the wood rotted away.

 

The blood was also toxic.

 

Kaaaaa!

 

Tamon's skin, which blocked the poison with his arms, also burned quickly.

“Ha…”

 

The good thing was that he was recovering faster than usual.

 

That didn't mean the pain disappeared, but it was bearable, and the pain went away quickly as the new flesh grew.

 

He hesitated for a moment in surprise, but the monster twisted and moved towards Asha.

 

It seemed to be trying to deal with the easy opponent first.

 

“Ka!”

 

Tamon leaped hard and drove his sword into the monster's back with all his might.

 

He could feel the sword graze the steel-hard bones as it broke through the monster's tough skin.

 

Aaaaah!!

 

Enraged, Perharz hit Tamon hard.

 

At the same time, two tails attacked him like a harpoon.

 

Ka!

 

“Asha!”

 

Tamon shouted, knocking out one tail with one hand and wrapping the rest of the tails with the other.

 

The sight of Tamon struggling alone made Roselyn's heart quicken.

 

Gritting her teeth, she grabbed the skirt that wrapped around her legs.

 

”I can do it, I can do it… ………!”

 

When she took a big deep breath and tried to cross the gap, a black hole sloughed open.

 

 

Originally, when a monster appeared, the gap would disappear.

 

However, that gap didn't even disappear, it just got even bigger.

 

“Asha!”

 

She had to jump over there… …

 

That was how she could shoot her arrow….

 

She was determined, but when she looked at the gap that was even wider, she wasn't sure.

 

'No, pull yourself together, Roselyn. You've been through countless crises.'

 

Roselyn strengthened herself and chewed the flesh in her mouth.

 

How hard did she chew, the taste of fishy blood came out.

 

Thump, thump, her heart was pounding like crazy.

 

If she couldn't run, she would be sucked into the gap.

 

She was dizzy and her hands were sweating.

 

That was when it happened.

 

“Asha! You're no longer limping!”

 

Tamon shouted at her as he blocked Perharz's  sharp attack.

 

Startled, Roselyn looked at him.

 

As she hesitated, Tamon had injured himself a little more. Bright red blood flowed down from his torn forehead.

 

Tamon stared at Roselyn with his eyes wide open.

 

“It's okay. Trust me.”

 

Tamon reassured her, smiling like a beast. 

 

“Run, Asha!”

 

Roselyn's chest heaved with excitement.

 

As if Tamon's words were a catalyst for courage, she stomped her feet vigorously.

 

'It doesn't hurt.'

 

She too felt it from a certain moment.

 

That her feet didn't hurt as much as they used to.

 

The moment she woke up in the morning and took the first step, she was not afraid anymore. But the pain remained a habit, and the traces of the past that she had acquired did not allow her to easily recognize the change.

 

 She became accustomed to limping rather than walking straight. She was fooled by that familiarity and didn't face reality. Roselyn took a big step forward.

 

“…… It doesn't hurt.”

 

Her feet, which had been lightly on the ground, kicked and jumped up.

 

The black gap that had been shaking widened the area again. But Roselyn's feet were faster and more powerful. Her body leapt to a great height and flew over the black hole.

 

The moment seemed longer than ever.

 

She felt like she was soaring over the river of time, jumping over the waves of minutes and seconds.

 

“It's done.”

 

Just as she was sure of it, her toes touched the ground on the other side.

 

Roselyn could probably swear that she would never forget this moment.

 

Oh, is this the feeling of being reborn?

 

She couldn't believe she could jump up and down with both feet without pain.

 

Her heart was full to bursting.

 

But before she had time to feel it, she ran again.

 

“Ka!”

 

It was okay to prolong the excitement a bit.

 

What good would it do her if she died as soon as she regained her normal legs?

 

Neighhh!

 

The horse came storming over.

 

Stroking Tamon's horse and holding back her excitement, Roselyn quickly grabbed the Laxicon bow in her pack.

 

She had to hurry.

 

While jumping over the black gap, Roselyn saw another monster trying to get out through the open gap.

 

In an instant, she took out her bow and arrow and aimed at yet another monster, which was showing its head through the wider hole.

 

Luckily, it wasn't Perharz this time.

 

'I need to deal with it before it goes through the gap…'

 

At the same time as she thought, Roselyn's bow penetrated the monster's eyeball as it just had its head pushed out of the gap.
