I’m Not a Regressor - Chapter 289

I am not a returner Episode 289:

The Dog and the Wolf (14)



Horus’ expression hardened.

Horus blurted out his words and avoided his gaze.

Riak glared at Horus with cold eyes.

“I am...”

When I was trying to answer.

“Horus!”

A hysterical voice pierced my ears.

Caliche, who was continuing the battle with Ojin, was glaring at Horus with her eyes wide as if they were torn apart.

“What on earth are you doing?! “I’m sure I told you to kill them, right?”

“....”

“Whether you use hostages or whatever you do, kill them quickly! ...Ugh?!”

Kalyke frowned and blocked Ojin’s fierce spear strike.

Horus chewed his lip and looked back at Kalyke.

“Hostages... are useless.”

Riak had already made up his mind.

He won’t stop even if you kill the Silver Mane clan he captured.

“under! Can’t you tell just by looking at it that it’s a bluff? “Don’t just talk loudly, set an example!”

“....”

Horus clenched his fists and looked toward the SS.

Thanks to Riak’s actions, several captured members of the Silver Mane tribe were released, but that was it.

Most of the Silver Mane tribe was still held in the hands of the SS.

No matter how Riak is, he won’t be able to save that many people at the same time.

“Why are you hesitating!”

“I am...”

“Horus!”

My clenched fist is shaking.

As Kalike said, Riak’s attitude might change if he saw his compatriots dying right in front of his eyes.

No, even if it doesn’t change, it will at least shake his mentality.

“I am.”

It’s simple.

As always.

All you have to do is do as you are told.

“Horus!”

“Order!”

Horus’s guards plunged their sharp claws into the neck of the captured Silver Mane tribesman.

As soon as the command is given, the heads of dozens of Silver Mane tribe members will be torn off by sharp nails in less than a second.

‘okay.’

If you don’t kill the Silver Mane clan now according to Kalyke’s orders, he will activate the ‘Leash’.

If the leash is activated, even the only bodyguard in the kingdom who trusted and followed him will be lost.

‘It’s a choice I’ve already made several times.’

In order to protect the lives of our compatriots, we must follow Kalyke’s words.

Be his loyal dog.

No matter how miserable it is.

No matter how miserable it is.

All I have to do is kneel.

All I have to do is surrender.

Then you can save it.

Everyone.

-You were just afraid of fighting.

Riak’s words became a sharp knife and cut into your heart.

“Who... are you saying is Khan?”

The person who said that also said that he had not done anything for a hundred years.

Now you come here and brazenly call out your wolf pride?

“You could have just turned away!”

I couldn’t turn away.

I was overcome by helplessness as I watched my compatriots dying before my eyes.

“What I want to hear is not an excuse, but an answer, Horus.”

“I am!”

Coo!

Horus stamped his foot roughly.

I glared at Riak with two wide-open eyes.

Even though all of his compatriots would die if he gave a single command.

Riak’s eyes did not waver at all.

‘It’s a bluff.’

okay.

It’s just as Kaliqué said.

Since none of the captured compatriots have died yet, they are just acting as if nothing has happened.

Riak is not a wolf.

He’s just a cowardly bastard like himself.

“Ugh! “If you don’t give me an order right now, I’ll activate the leashes around your men’s necks!”

Kalyke’s voice is heard.

A voice that had bound him for a hundred years.

It’s no different from then.

Horus looked down at his fallen subordinates with bitter eyes.

As Kalike said, half of them were alive.

In other words, the remaining half died.

Because of your own choices.

For my petty pride.

“...was this the weight you had to carry?”

Hehehe.

Horus shook his shoulders and laughed.

“It’s so... so heavy.”

no.

I cried.

“Krrrrr.”

Crack!

Horus grew in size and a black mane covered his entire body.

But Kalyke is already dead.

He still had work to finish.

“Come, Riak.”

The black wolf’s eyes turned to Riak.

“Let’s settle the matter.”

“...Horus.”

“You don’t really want to say that it’s the end because Kalyke is dead, do you?”

Riak clenched his fists with a bitter expression.

As Horus said, it cannot be the end just because Caliche is dead.

“If you want to get Khan’s name back!”

The corners of Horus’ mouth rose fiercely.

“Kill me!”

Quang!

The black wolf galloped away.

A fist filled with terrifying power split the air and struck Riak’s cheek.

Blood flowed from Riak’s mouth.

Riak grinned, wiping the blood flowing from the corner of his mouth.

“under! “Is this all it takes?”

“what?”

“It looks like you’re a cat now, not a dog!”

“As long as the mouth survives!”

What kind of cat is this, with blood dripping from its mouth?

Horus grabbed Riak’s shoulder with a bewildered expression.

He lifted his knee like lightning and tried to hit Riak in the stomach.

“Crumbling!”

Riak pressed down on Horus’s knees with his palms and struck his head like a hammer.

Quack!

Horus staggered back as blood splattered out.

“Ugh... It’s as hard a head as ever.”

“There are so many things in my head.”

“You’re talking nonsense again. “Who was it that ran away into the forest as soon as class started?”

“Didn’t you cut it too?”

“You dragged me by force!”

My immature childhood.

It brings back memories of when there was still peace in the Khan Kingdom.

Unlike the mouths that burst into laughter and warmly told old stories, the two wolves’ fists were swinging mercilessly at each other.

Fist and fist clashing.

Blood and sweat splashed out, and the two wolves tangled fiercely.

“Hmph!”

Bah!

Riak’s fist dug into Horus’ solar plexus.

Horus slid back as if he had expected an attack and grabbed Riak’s arm.

“Crrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!”

Horus beats Riak while holding his arm.

The ground caved in due to the huge impact, and dust flew in all directions.

Riak, who was pinned to the floor, gritted his teeth.

Riak flipped his hips and kicked Horus with both feet.

Horus held his legs and rotated his body as if he was waiting.

Horus spins so fast that the scattered dust turns into a small whirlwind.

Horus, who was spinning as fast as a top, let go of the leg he was holding when the centrifugal force reached its peak.

Riak’s body, thrown like a shot put, landed in the fountain in the castle garden.

Kugugoogung!

The statue erected in the center of the fountain collapsed, and debris poured down on Riak.

“Kuhhh...”

Riak groaned and staggered out of the rubble.

“Didn’t the cat do something earlier?”

Horus grinned as he looked at Riak, who was moaning.

“Has it been so long that you forgot, Riak?”

My fingernails grew long like swords.

“You went to combat sparring class with me and never won.”

The black wolf fiercely bared its teeth and kicked its feet.
