Chapter 75: Bouncing Back 2

Translator: - - Editor: - -

Ellic's body fell and disappeared. Junhyuk sighed, relieved that he wasn't killed. Sarang walked over to him and grabbed his arm.

"Are you OK?" She asked.

Junhyuk grabbed her by the shoulders.

"Are you crazy?!" He yelled.

"What?"

"Why did you come back?"

She was surprised by the yelling, but he continued:

"What if we hadn't killed him? Did you come here so we could die together?"

Sarang's eyes were filled with tears.

"How could I go?!" She yelled back.

Her yelling caught him by surprise, and she kept going:

"I couldn't leave you behind!"

He looked at her, sighed and, without saying a word, he hugged her. She cried into his chest, and he sighed again.

"Stupid, you have only one life."

"I couldn't run away."

He lightly caressed her back, and she stopped crying.

"I'll forgive you just this once," he said.

She looked up at him, and he caressed her cheeks and said:

"Next time, I won't be so forgiving!"

Sarang nodded slowly, and Junhyuk held her in his arms.

"Thanks. You saved my life," he said.

"Hm. You should've thanked me earlier. Why did you get angry?"

"I was joking, but I won't be as forgiving again."

"Hm. OK."

He tapped her back lightly. Then, he picked up the item Ellic had dropped and screamed silently.

It was the very thing he was looking for, so he put it on and inspected it.

Golden Knight Elder's Ring (Set item)

Attack +15

The Golden Knight Elder used to carry this ring. In the past, he was called a legend and he carried items to increase his attack power. There was no one who could withstand a blow from him.

Having a complete set increases the power of the item.

Two-Item Set Effectiveness: Armor Piercing +35

Three-Item Set Effectiveness: Additional Fixed Damager +50

---

He knew how important fixed damage had been in fighting Ellic, so he really liked the set.

"It's a big deal."

"Is it something good?"

Junhyuk nodded and showed her the ring. It was made out of pure gold and shone in his hand.

"Ellic will miss this the most, and it will help me big time."

It had a fixed damage buff, so it would work against people with high defense, but fifty was not a lot. However, anything could happen. He had killed Ellic because of the fixed damage he had dealt, so he was really glad for it.

Junhyuk looked at her.

"We should hurry."

"Will we be OK?"

"Ellic came this way, so Minota will be waiting for us in the opposite direction. We should move forward."

"What if we meet another ogre?"

"We'll go around it. It's not easy to deal with it."

"Go around it?"

Junhyuk smiled:

"Teleport."

They had retreated from the ogre, but Minota was looking for them now, so it would be dangerous to go back to where they came.

To escape Minota, they would have to face monsters.

Ellic had died, so the safest way was to follow in the direction he had come from.

"Let's go to the castle!"

---

One by one, they reincarnated. They walked out of the castle with Artlan in the lead, grinding his teeth.

"I'm sorry."

"What about?" Nudra asked with his hands behind his back.

Artlan laughed a little.

"Going dragon hunting and getting killed."

Vera was behind him, cracking her neck to the left, then to the right.

"Does anyone know what happened to the children?"

Diane walked behind Vera and said:

"They were alive up to the time I got killed. Don't know what happened to them."

"They were alive?!"

Diane nodded, and the door opened. Halo showed up. Diane looked at him and clicked her tongue.

"Halo died, so the children must be dead. The entrance to the valley was blocked."

Artlan looked at him. Halo was the last one to get there, so he said:

"They are alive."

"What?"

Junhyuk and Sarang were alive, and Halo spoke, which was even more shocking. The heroes all looked at him.

"Are you done with your vow of silence?" Diane asked.

"I was trying to save them. There was no other way," he answered calmly.

"So, they survived?" Artlan asked, curious, and Halo nodded.

"I saw them going up the cliff."

"The cliff?!"

Diane clapped her hands and shouted:

"Sherlock's Leather Arm Warmer! The jump skill!"

Halo fixed his sword and said:

"But Ellic and Minota were still alive."

Everyone's expressions darkened. Artlan grabbed his sabers and said:

"They climbed up the dragon's valley. There are two paths from the cliff. We'll split up in two groups."

Artlan looked at Vera.

"Vera and I will take the right road, and Halo, you take Nudra and Diane and go to the left road. We should hurry."

"OK."

Artlan took the lead, and the five heroes ran, turning into a rescue team.

---

The forest was more dangerous than Junhyuk had expected. They encountered over ten monsters, and the buff had ended, so they struggled a lot. They met some monsters they couldn't kill, but they teleported away to escape. At that moment, they were resting on a big rock.

"Are you OK?"

"I feel like I'm dying."

Junhyuk smiled bitterly. He was the one who had dealt with the monsters. If it weren't for Bebe's Black Armor, he would've been dead. Sarang shot her lightning bolt from behind him.

Her magic helped big time, but he was the one who had fought the most.

"We will rest here for a minute."

"When will we get there?"

Junhyuk looked at the sky. He didn't know what time it was and couldn't guess how long it would take. However, he should be the one worrying and not her.

"We will be there soon."

Sarang shook her head and asked:

"Big bro, are you directionally challenged?"

"No, I'm not! They call me the human GPS."

He got up.

"We should get going," he said.

"We just got here. Just one more minute."

"We don't have time. We'll get there soon."

"You just said that we would rest."

Junhyuk grabbed her by the robe and pulled her up.

"Rest at the castle."

"Ugh..." Sarang complained, and Junhyuk started walking. She kicked the ground and followed him.

They had to get to the castle. They knew how dangerous the forest was from experience.

Suddenly, Junhyuk heard some footsteps and frowned. He was familiar with the noise. He stopped her, and a three-horned, thirteen-foot shadow appeared above them. It was Minota.

"I almost lost you."

"How did you find us?" He asked, and Minota laughed.

"Ellic reincarnated, and he contacted me to say he had lost to you, and that I should hurry."

"So, you came here?"

"That's right. We meet again!"

Junhyuk sighed. He had killed Ellic, but time had passed, and Minota had to have regained all of his health. It wouldn't be possible to fight him now.

Minota smiled at him, showing a row of teeth like a shark's along with his middle finger.

"What is meaning of this gesture?"

Junhyuk laughed at him and looked back at Sarang.

"Sarang."

"Yes."

"It won't work this time."

She looked at him. She knew they couldn't deal with Minota at full strength.

"We have to go that way."

"Back off. We can't deal with him."

Minota listened and laughed.

"Ha-ha-hah. You want to escape?"

Minota stepped forward, and Junhyuk summoned his swords.

"Run away!" He yelled.

Junhyuk took a step forward, but she grabbed him by the wrist.

"Let's go together."

"Sarang!"

Sarang extended her staff and said:

"Listen to me!"

As she shouted, she fired an electric blast. Minota was paralyzed, and Junhyuk clenched his jaw. There were no more options.

He grabbed her and ran forward, not forgetting to slash Minota's side on the way. All of them had lost their dragon buffs, so he had to slow Minota down.

"Woo, woo, woo!"

He wasn't paralyzed for a long time and mooed loudly as soon as he could, lifting his hoof. He wanted to crush Junhyuk, but Junhyuk teleported.

Boom!

The shockwaves traveled in all directions, but Junhyuk was already far away. Minota rushed to shorten the distance. When he saw the three horns approaching, Junhyuk teleported again.

The distance widened, and Junhyuk looked back. The distance was significant, but the cooldown for the rush was shorter than the one for spatial relocation.

Minota would catch them.

"Ha-ha-ha! Run! Escape!"

It was time, and Minota rushed again. That's when Junhyuk launched his force field.

Bang!

The force field was immune to all damage, but it could be pushed. They bounced away with the impact, and the distance widened. Junhyuk ran faster.

He had used his powers. He couldn't just run. He wanted to try his best to survive.

"Ha-ha-ha! You used all of your powers. You'll die soon!"

Ten seconds passed by, and the force field disappeared. Minota laughed hard and ran.

"Ha-ha-ha! It's almost time!"

Minota rushed at him, but Junhyuk knew one cooldown was over and teleported away.

"Aargh! Slippery sucker!" Minota said angrily.

They had barely escaped, but that could be the last time. If Minota rushed again, they would be killed.

"Shit! I came this far!" Junhyuk said through gritted teeth.

Minota would kill him soon enough, and that would be a shame.

"Ha-ha! You can't run!"

Minota stomped the ground and rushes at him. Junhyuk pushed Sarang's back to get her away and pulled out his swords.

Slash!

"Ugh!"

He felt a heavy pressure on his arm and rolled on the ground. He got up to see Minota standing in front of him. Minota lifted his paws and smiled.

"I got you."

Minota slammed his paws down, and Junhyuk tried to block with his swords.

Slash!

Junhyuk saw a man standing in front of him, and his back looked familiar. The man smiled at him.

"You did well."
