Chapter 156
“M-Monster…”
Out of the 3 suicide bombings, none of them succeeded .
It was because after activating Overdrive, Kang Chul-In was able to stab through their hearts faster than they exploded .
Now’s my chance .
Kang Chul-In knew that while the enemy soldiers were afraid, he had to get past them and get in the Bittermoon territory . Even though he was strong, he wouldn’t be able to win against this many soldiers . He would run out of mana first .
“Altaica!”
Kang Chul-In called .
-Krrr!
Jumping towards him, the Altaica showed that it was still fine . Even though it had gotten a little injured due to the suicide bombers, the injuries weren’t that serious yet .
“Let’s go!”
As soon as Kang Chul-In got on the Altaica, it started to race towards the Bittermoon territory’s castle . .
“S-Stop them!”
“Catch them!”
Even though the soldiers of Anatolia surrounded Kang Chul-In and the Altaica,
“Agh!!”
“Kuhuk…”
They were unable to stop Kang Chul-In, who had activated Overdrive .
And combined with the weight and speed of the Altaica, it made sense that no one in front of them would be okay .
Combined together, the two of them were able to create destructive power akin to that of Franz’ ‘Titan’ .
If we can just get over the castle wall…
Looking at the castle wall of the Bittermoon territory, Kang Chul-In gritted his teeth .
If he got past that wall he would finally be able to meet Arshelly .
And since he had already been here, he would remember what was inside once he saw it again . And especially Polansky’s secret chamber; he knew the location perfectly since he had been shocked in his past life .
“Can you do it?”
With 20 metres remaining in between him and the wall, he asked the Altaica .
-Grrrrr!
The Altaica cried loudly . It seemed as if he were telling Kang Chul-In not to worry .
“Good!”
Kang Chul-In answered back cheerfully .
Even though it was a baby that had only been born for a year, it wasn’t too bad of an idea to trust in the power of a godbeast that represented a kingdom .
Tat!
The Altaica started to run towards the castle walls quickly,
“Get lost!”
And Kang Chul-In cut down any soldiers that dared to get close .
Tuk!
The Altaica’s sharp claws pushed down on the castle wall .
And,
-Krrr!
With a fearsome roar, it began to scale up the wall, as if it was running .
1 metre, 2 metres… 5 metres… 10 metres…
25 metres!
“We’re almost there!”
-Krr!
The Altaica grunted in response and jumped,
Tuk!
Landing gracefully on the castle walls .
“W-What…?”
“Is that a tiger…?”
“I-Is that the famed Overlord Kang Chul-In…?”
The soldiers atop the castle wall gasped, flabbergasted at the man-tiger duo that had just climbed the wall .
“A-Are you… Kang Chul-In?”
The general of the Bittermoon territory, Berenas, approached Kang Chul-In and spoke cautiously .
“Yes . ”
Atop the Altaica, Kang Chul-In stared down at the troops arrogantly .
“To think that I would live to see the sight of a Lord getting past an entire army by himself… I can’t believe that… B-But… where is your army? Why are you alone?”
“Well . ”
Kang Chul-In laughed .
With a cold smile on his face, Kang Chul-In looked like a demon king that had risen from the depths of hell .
“Reinforcements?”
“ . . . ?”
“There are none . ”
“ . . . !”
“I’m here for Polansky, to rip his head off . ”
“W-What…”
At the moment Berenas tried to open his mouth .
Flash!
A white light streaked by,
Plop .
And Berenas’s rolled on the floor, lifeless .
“ . . . !”
“ . . . !”
Shock filled the faces of the Bittermoon soldiers .
“Fight well . ”
Saying that, Kang Chul-In and the Altaica raced towards the inner castle .
-----------
“W-What just…”
Even Lee Gong-Myung was shocked when Kang Chul-In came out of nowhere, and jumped inside the Bittermoon territory .
Of course, he wasn’t able to see the death of Berenas, as he was so far away .
“Lee Gong-Myung!”
Baruk Al-Yusuf was also shocked .
“What is happening right now? Why is Kang Chul-In here?”
“Great Khalifa…”
Lee Gong-Myung immediately kneeled down in front of Baruk Al-Yusuf .
“This is something that this one had also not expected . ”
“Ehem…”
“Overlord Kang Chul-In is on the other side of Pangaea, in the Pandemonium territory . I had not guessed that he would be here instead . ”
“Hu…”
Baruk Al-Yusuf sighed .
Since he also knew that what Lee Gong-Myung said was 100% true, he could not blame him either .
At that moment .
“A message has come!”
A messenger that had been waiting outside rushed in .
“Great Khalifa!”
The man reported .
“The 5000 soldiers that were in the back preparing for the reinforcements seem to be struggling! There are already 700 dead…”
“ . . . !”
“Apparently, they weren’t able to stand up against their enemies since they were quite powerful, and they were using Guerrilla tactics to fight . ”
“W-What!”
Baruk Al-Yusuf stood up .
“Guerrilla… Guerrilla warfare… It seems as if the reinforcements weren’t from the territories in the south, but rather Kang Chul-In . ”
Shouting this, Baruk Al-Yusuf’s eyes were reddened with rage .
“What Kang Chul-In has done here, appearing by himself, is an incredible risky move . Even though he has managed to get inside the Bittermoon territory, isn’t it impossible for him to escape? It seems as if Kang Chul-In has some unsolved business within there . ”
At that moment, Lee Gong-Myung spoke up .
“So?”
“Isn’t this a great opportunity for us?”
And at this, Baruk Al-Yusuf gasped .
“Ahh…”
“Great Khalifa, this is a great chance . ”
Lee Gong-Myung repeated .
“It seems as though the morale of the Bittermoon troops being so high has something to do with Kang Chul-In . ”
“You seem to be correct . ”
“But Kang Chul-In’s army is fighting in the back, which means that reinforcements won’t be coming . ”
“And?”
“Yes, this is a mistake and an overestimation of himself by Kang Chul-In . By doing this, he has trapped himself, and given us a great opportunity!”
“Very good!”
Listening up to here, Baruk Al-Yusuf started to laugh .
This is an opportunity!
Looking at Baruk Al-Yusuf in front of him, Lee Gong-Myung realized that this was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity .
Even from the beginning, the reason why Alex Rothschild had sent Lee Gong-Myung was in order to stop Kang Chul-In’s growth, and make Baruk Al-Yusuf his meatshield .
But since Kang Chul-In had come here himself, this was an opportunity for Lee Gong-Myung .
I need to capture Kang Chul-In here!
If he could capture Kang Chul-In, it didn’t matter what it cost, and how much Baruk Al-Yusuf lost .
“Great Khalifa, why don\'t we go all out, and try to capture Kang Chul-In?”
“Of course! I will use my everything--- My greatest jihad soldiers to capture that damned Kang Chul-In!”
Baruk Al Yusuf clenched his fists .
----------
Just a little further!
Inside the Bittermoon territory, Kang Chul-In urged the Altaica to go all-out, and quickly rushed into the inner castle .
“Stop!”
At that moment .
“Overlord Kang Chul-In! What are you doing!”
Stopping Kang Chul-In were around 50 of the territories guards . These were the elite of the elite, so it was hard for even Kang Chul-In to ignore them .
But,
“Small fry . ”
Kang Chul-In laughed at the guards of the Bittermoon territory .
Why?
He had something for them .
“Summon . ”
As soon as Kang Chul-In said that, Spectre Knights started to show themselves one by one .
“D-Don’t tell me…”
Looking at these Spectre Knights, the leader of the guards gasped .
“S-Spectre…”
Of course they were shocked .
Even though these guards were the elite of the territory, they had to gang up 5 against 1 in order to beat these spectre knights .
Since they had to same numbers, it was obviously who would lose the battle .
“Sweep them up . ”
Kang Chul-In ordered .
----------
“Kang Chul-In you crazy bastard!!!”
At this disaster, Sheville Polansky cursed .
The Bittermoon territory was already screwed .
They had only been holding on to wait for Kang Chul-In’s reinforcements, and now that their hopes had been dashed, Sheville Polansky tried to run back to earth .
“Damned bastard!”
Sheville Polansky swore once more, and opened a secret passage in the Lord’s hall .
“M-Milord! Where are you going!”
“Shut up!”
Ignoring his secretary, Sheville Polansky tried to run .
Using the secret passage Sheville Polansky went to his secret chamber . It was in order to take Arshelly with him back to earth .
“Huhu… that barrier should almost be gone by now…”
Looking at the fainted Arshelly, Sheville Polansky laughed .
At that moment .
BANG!
With a large noise, the walls began to collapse,
-Krrr!
Revealing a man riding a giant tiger .
“Daughter . ”
Ignoring the flustered Sheville Polansky, Kang Chul-In only looked at Arshelly .
“Wake up . Dad is here . ”
