Kurrrr!
[Huh!]
[N-No way??]
The sudden ambush bewildered the two high-ranking sorcerers.
[A human is attacking us first?]
[How dare it!]
Their current target, an inhabitant of another dimension, was clearly nothing more than prey that should’ve been running away. While they admitted that he had gotten lucky and defeated Haverus, he had only risen to power because he was appointed by Char, thanks to his ability to specialize in reconnaissance and surveillance. In other words, in terms of pure brute force, they were stronger by a very small margin.
‘There’s not just one, but two of us. Yet he still dares to attack first?’
Even with the geographical advantage, it was not a good idea. The situation was so absurd that the two high-ranking sorcerers were more stunned than angry. For a moment, they were bewildered, but a glance at each other brought about mutual understanding.
‘On second thought, this is an opportunity.’
‘Yeah, our goal was to find and kill him anyway.’
‘I’m a little annoyed that they attacked us first, but I’m also grateful that the human showed up on his own when we couldn’t find him anywhere.’
‘Okay, this is good. Let’s pretend like we’re losing, catch him off guard, and take him down in one try so he can’t get away.’
‘Sounds good.’
The two high-ranking sorcerers made a plan.
“Kuaaa!”
“Kaaaa!”
Kwang!
They retreated, deliberately taking small steps backward as if they were straining to keep up. They wanted to lure the human, the other-dimensional inhabitant, who was on the cliff and firing ranged attacks at them. They backed off slowly, using some contaminants as bait to avoid being too obvious. Using those contaminants was a bit of a waste, but this kind of sacrifice was nothing as long as they could lure him properly.
Tap, tap.
Little by little, they backed away in order to lure and hunt down the cowardly opponent who was only using ranged attacks.
‘Hmm, wow they’re using their brains for once.’
Although the hyena sorcerers had changed quite a bit since Harkan’s time, Han-Yeol understood the hyena race very well. Their strategy and tactics were clear to him since Harkan and the hyena race had fought lots in the past and were on bad terms with each other.
Shaa!
‘I knew it!’
As the hyenas had predicted, Han-Yeol’s firepower became less effective as they moved away from the cliff.
‘Hehe, now come this way. I’ll give you a good fight!’
They had taken quite a bit of damage from the surprise attack, but they were still very strong.
“Now, shall we get going?”
“I will back you up,” Stewart replied.
“Oh, how trustworthy.”
“It’s because I can’t trust you, Han-Yeol-nim.”
A natural reaction followed Stewart’s petty provocation.
“What?”
Thud!
Han-Yeol came down from the cliff.
[Kahaha. You’re a genius, Haruni.]
[Of course. Tell me something I don't know. Hahaha.]
The hyenas grinned leisurely, revealing their fangs as Han-Yeol appeared as they expected. Now, if they killed him, they could quell Char’s anger and all this chaos.
They were confident.
A single high-ranking sorcerer had the power to cause a disaster in the entire Bastro Dimension. So, with not one but two high-ranking sorcerers working together, they felt that no one could defeat them, even if it was someone who had fought and defeated a high-ranking sorcerer one on one. And most importantly, they intended to give it their all from the start.
‘If I let my guard down and lose a lot of contaminants, I’ll lose a lot of my own power even if I do well overall.’
For the high-ranking sorcerers, who looked far into the future and competed with their peers to become the next Char, losing individual power would be fatal to their ambitions.
[We’re going to attack with all we’ve got. Wrath of the Contaminants!]
[Kahahaha. Curse of the Contaminants!]
Whoosh!
He started off strong from the start.
