I Entered a Gacha Game That Had Been Abandoned for 10 Years

chapter 190



190 – Decisive Battle (2)

From the blue fog, numerous races and monsters mixed together as the dead began to reveal themselves one by one.

Some were human.

Some were beastmen.

Some were monsters.

In addition to these, races including elves who could live for over a thousand years emerged from the blue fog as the dead and formed a group, walking towards the black things that were swarming into Laritania.

■■■■■■■■■■■-!!!

The black things rushed forward with a distorted mechanical noise, tearing through the group of the dead.

The bodies of the dead who were touched by the strange arms of the black things were crushed, torn, and trampled.

It was the same elsewhere.

No matter where the battle was taking place, there was no place where the black things were being defeated.

The situation was as if the black things were being treated like food.

However, even though the dead were clearly being defeated, the front line was being maintained.

The reason was because of the dead who were constantly pouring out of the blue fog.

As if the gates of hell had been opened, the dead who appeared endlessly from within it advanced without any fear, following the orders of the princess to kill the black things.

Without any trace of emotion, they simply carried out the orders that had been given to them.

As the dead held back the black things,

From afar, Merilda, who had jumped from the wall earlier, reached Arthur in an instant and swung her claws down.

Cawww-!

A creepy sound like a giant iron house being crushed.

However, Arthur blocked Merilda’s claws with his gauntlet without any change in expression, and immediately after, Rin, who had drawn her sword in the darkness, appeared from behind and swung her sword.

Clang!

Rin’s sword was blocked by Arthur’s raised gauntlet, making a harsh ringing sound.

“!”

Rin’s eyes widened in astonishment, and Merilda, who was watching from the front, also frowned, but she didn’t stop there. She twisted her body while Arthur was blocking Rin’s attack and tried to hit Arthur’s head, but her attack was-

Thwack-!

It was nullified as Arthur simply pulled his head back slightly.

And.

[…He stands out among the heroes of Middle-earth that I’ve seen so far.]

With those words, Arthur’s gauntlet disappeared.

It happened in an instant.

However, as if she had anticipated this situation, Merilda immediately turned around and raised her guard.

Swoosh-!

“Ugh!”

Before she could fully raise her guard, Merilda was hit by Arthur’s gauntlet and sent flying, crashing to the ground.

Immediately after, Rin, who had recognized the situation, charged forward with her sword.

“!”

Before she could move, Arthur had already reached her.

Realizing this, she dropped the sword she was holding and deliberately thrust her body forward, entering close combat.

Basically, a sword required a certain amount of reach to be used.

Bang!

With that judgment, Rin, who was in front of Arthur, stopped for a moment and swung her fist at him.

From Rin’s point of view, it was a quick and agile attack.

However, for other heroes, it was a series of attacks that were too fast to be seen. They moved in an instant to hit Arthur’s neck, chest, and stomach.

However.

“!”

Arthur lightly blocked Rin’s incredibly fast attacks with his left hand, which was not holding a sword, and instead began to swing his fist.

Thud!

“Ugh!?”

As Rin was knocked to the ground, Arthur ran up to her and tried to stab her with his gauntlet, as if to finish her off, but-

Bang!

At that moment, Merilda, who had gotten back up and approached, pushed Arthur away by kicking him.

[…He’s stronger than I thought for a hero of Middle-earth. No, is he a demon…?]

“…”

Charles was also fighting Lancelot.Lancelot was speaking to her with a voice full of curiosity, as if Charles’s very existence was a marvel, but his face was hidden.

Charles did not respond to Lancelot’s words.

Instead.

[-!]

Charles, holding the Executioner’s Sword given to her by Kim Hyun-woo, once again began to fight Lancelot.

Bang-!

The pitch-black sword held by Lancelot and the Executioner’s Sword held by Charles clashed.

Neither of them budged.

At least in terms of strength, they were evenly matched.

However, Charles was already feeling astonished at that point.

Her current strength was inflated to the extreme due to the Executioner’s Sword’s assistance and her ability to increase the efficiency of artifacts by nearly a hundredfold.

In other words, Charles, whose strength had become so powerful that even the demons would have to fold unconditionally, frowned as she looked at Lancelot, who was evenly matched with her.

Bang!

Charles immediately clenched her fist and struck back at Lancelot’s fist, which followed shortly after.

Kwaaang-!

The ground burst open for a moment with a deafening roar.

Charles did not have time to pay attention to the strange phenomenon that occurred even though it was just a fist meeting a fist, and she quickly turned her gaze to Merida and Lynn.

If she had just looked at them lightly, she would have thought that they were fighting well to some extent, but at least in her eyes, Merida and Charles were being pushed back, so she felt a little anxious.

She realized it easily just by briefly crossing swords with them.

At least the two enemies in front of her now were so strong that she couldn’t handle them alone.

‘…At least if I can take care of this guy and quickly get over there-‘

So as Charles frowned and thought about the best possible solution in this situation.

“Ugh!”

Bang!

Lynn and Merida were already in danger.

Lynn, who had blocked Arthur’s attack with a sword drawn from the darkness, was thrown back and rolled on the ground, and Arthur’s sword struck down once more behind her.

Kwa-jik-!

Lynn rolled her body to avoid it.

However, Arthur, who had stabbed his sword into the ground, positioned himself to swing it at Lynn, and at that brief moment, Lynn gritted her teeth as the imminent danger of death approached her without hesitation.

Kwaang!

With a deafening roar, Arthur’s body was slammed into the ground.

It was because Merida, who had approached at the moment Arthur was about to swing his sword, kicked Arthur in the head.

“…He’s disgustingly strong.”

However, Merida frowned as she watched Arthur get up, dusting himself off as if such an attack meant nothing.

And so the fight continued.

Merida and Lynn desperately dodged and moved their bodies to land even a single effective blow on Arthur, but Arthur, as if he would not allow any more attacks after allowing a surprise attack, began to focus even more on the battle than before.

As a result, Merida and Lynn began to be pushed back gradually as time passed.

The battle, which had seemed evenly matched just a moment ago, had completely changed at some point.

Now, Merida and Lynn were clearly struggling just to block Arthur’s attacks.

And.

‘I guess I have no choice.’

As she watched, Kim Hyun-woo opened his mouth to use the last resort he had been keeping in reserve.

────────!

A loud roar came from far away.

The black thing that distorted the mechanical sound was not a roar, but a spine-chilling roar that made one’s whole body shudder.

And at that moment, Arthur, who had moved, grabbed Merida by the neck and tried to stab her with a half-sword in the stomach.

[Stop-]

With that voice echoing throughout Lartania, the movements of the black things stopped.

The black things stood there, unable to move, as if they had heard the words of an irresistible being.

It was the same for the heroes, including Lancelot.

Even the undead, who had been moving relentlessly toward the black things without any hesitation, stopped in their tracks.

The battlefield was filled with silence for a moment, as if the world had suddenly stopped.

[!]Even Arthur, who had been holding a sword to Merilda’s neck just a moment ago, stopped and frowned as if he were equal to this voice.

However.

Tremble-

Despite the fact that everyone was unable to move, Arthur moved to push the sword into Merilda’s stomach.

Arthur’s body moved, albeit very slightly.

Kwaaang-!

[I told you to stop-]

However, Arthur stopped as he pushed the sword in with difficulty as something shot down from the sky and let out a roar.

Soon, everyone there could see it.

The figure of a dragon with red wings spread out, looking down at Arthur.

And.

[★★★★★☆Hero ‘Crimson Dragon’ has been recruited to the Lartania Territory!]

Such a message appeared before Kim Hyun-woo’s eyes.
