Chapter 58: South (5)



Chapter 58: South (5)

Huff. Huff.

Breathing roughly because of the battle, Dawn looked over at the source of the noise.

There, Dawn saw some familiar goblins making their way towards him.

---They made it, hah.

To be honest, Dawn wasn't confident in facing the goblins surrounding him.

Sure, he might be strong and capable of defeating them in one strike, but that doesn't mean Dawn is invincible.

Dawn will die if his head is cut off from his neck. He wasn't some being who can escape death that will eventually come to a living being.

"Huuuu."

Dawn took a deep breath. He fixed his posture and changed his goals from Lam to where the ruckus comes from.

As long as Dawn could go there, his survival and safety would be guaranteed.

There is only one way to cut off the time needed to go there when the path is full of enemies.

And that is to run faster than the enemies could strike.

"Ha!"

Focusing his Aura on his feet and knees, Dawn ran forward with speed greater than before.

Whoosh.

Dawn's speed was incomparable to before; he was faster than the wind!

It was then.

Dawn tried to avoid a goblin and went to the right side when suddenly, an arm was sticking out and prevented him from advancing.

Intentional or not, Dawn wasn't able to confirm as he disregarded control for the utmost possible speed.

---Not good!

Unable to step on the brake, Dawn clenched his teeth and prepared for impact.

Even his instincts that saved him from his battle with Womo wasn't working.

Bam!

A loud explosion resounded out in the silent battlefield when Dawn collided with the arm.

When everyone turned their heads toward Dawn, they saw him being subdued by an unknown goblin.

Dawn was pushed against the ground; his neck was held tightly by the goblin.

Of course, Lam saw this, and when he saw the goblin's face who was holding Dawn, Lam shouted out loud.

"That's right!! We have you!!"

Lam's allies were quite doubtful of him when they heard what he said, but some goblins also agreed with Lam.

"Right! Kill that goblin now, Gago!"

"Do it! This is a chance!"

Gago sent his aura into his fingertips to dug deeper into Dawn's skin. This was happening ever since he got hold of Dawn, but Dawn was always one step ahead of him no matter what he did.

Whenever he sent his aura to his hand to crush Dawn's neck, Dawn would send it right back at him.

Right now, the only way to kill Dawn is for him to attack directly, but Gago can't do it.

The moment he releases his force or strength on his arm, Dawn would escape.

Gago wasn't confident that he'd be able to capture Dawn once more, let alone hold him back down again.

'I must secure this chance!'

Gago saw Dawn finally let down his guard and decided to rush head in first while being surrounded by tons of enemies.

He didn't even know Gago's existence, which was why he was currently in a situation like this.

In a way, Gago outwitted Dawn in all aspects, whether it be patience, timing, and decision making.

"Haaaaa!"

Gago shouted out, raising his fighting spirit and morale.

"Go, Gago! He killed the chief! Your savior!"

"That's right!"

No goblins dared to take part in this battle between the two. Gago evolved twice, having the same rank as Dawn.

He was the secret trump card of the village chief, Vadu, and was the strongest goblin because of Vadu's bad health.

He even knew how to calculate damages because he was taught personally by Vadu, who had a lot of experience in being a village chief.

Lam was driven by his personal ambition, but Gago was reared by the village chief of a Big Village. Lam couldn't even be compared with Gago.

As his base strength was comparable to Dawn, Gago could compete in this kind of position.

A harsh and tough battle was ongoing between the two Aura users. One was using his hand while the other was using his neck and body to protect himself.

However, it didn't take long to see who was the winner. It was all because of an external influence.

"I'm gonna have his head!!"

Lam shouted out while brandishing his sword. He rushed in to cut off Dawn's neck to finish it once and for all.

His face was beet red from the excitement. After all, killing Dawn was a sure way for him to be blessed by the battlefield.

The two goblins, Dawn and Gago, were focusing on one another and didn't notice Lam's actions.

"Dieeee!"

That was why when a blinding light entered Gago's vision, he momentarily guarded himself. He thought that the light was coming for him.

Of course, he didn't let go of the hand holding Dawn, but that was enough for Dawn.

An inch is still an inch. Losing focus even for one second was deadly in this situation.

"GuaAhHHAh!"

Dawn shouted out loud, pushing his body up. His muscles from his arms were being stretched and were screaming.

His neck muscles weren't any better; the muscles were literally being ripped apart and then stimulated to heal in a matter of seconds.

This process was happening even though Dawn was getting up, and Gago's grip was loosening.

Because Gago had his guard up and had his attention taken away, he couldn't prevent Dawn from rising.

However, it's not as if Dawn was a free man.

The sword was still swinging down and aiming right at his neck!

If the sword cuts down Dawn's neck, Dawn will die no matter how tenacious he is.

And when Lam saw the sword struck Dawn, a word escaped from his mouth.

"Fuck..."

It's because the sword couldn't pierce Dawn's skin. No...it couldn't pierce through Dawn's Aura to struck the skin.

And in that brief moment, Dawn was able to get up and took a few steps back from the two goblins.

All that happened within the blink of an eye. Even the blessed goblins who were watching intently couldn't grasp what happened.

Lam was staring dazedly at Dawn while Gago was throwing looks of glare at Lam, who presented the opening and allowed Dawn to escape.

"You bastard! Why did you join in?!"

"N-no, I... I didn't!"

Gago was about to punch Lam, but then, he felt it.

He felt the terrible anger and wrath of someone who he shouldn't have angered.

That being's anger was being fused with Aura and was looming in this place.

It invaded the heavens, earth, and finally, Gago's skin.

Until finally, even though his instincts told him not to look, Gago turned his head towards Dawn.

"Hiiii!"

A shrill cry escaped from the courageous Gago when he met Dawn's bloodshot eyes.

Gago's whole body was quivering, and he even forgot about Lam, who destroyed the perfect chance.

Thud.

His knees gave in, and Gago fell on his knees. He didn't know what Dawn was thinking, but it was clear based on Dawn's crumpled face.

The veins bulging in Dawn's head was showing just how angry he was. Even though he was just standing there, every goblin could only look up at him.

Then, a weak and small voice escaped Dawn's tightly shut lips.

"Y-you...!"

"Y-you fucking dare!"

It was then. Dawn opened his mouth wide and shouted. His voice was filled with some of his Aura, threatening every living being here.

"You fucking dare make me bow my head?!!"

His appearance was exactly like that of a death god!

With that fierce atmosphere around him, Dawn rushed towards Gago.

His bloodshot eyes didn't even notice the other goblins.

He just wanted to crush the insolent goblin.

"N-no!"

Gago crawled away from Dawn when he saw the Aura in his fists.

crack!

However, he could not escape Dawn's wrath.

It was as if thunder came down when Dawn broke Gago's bones on his legs.

"You want to run?"

Dawn bent his knees and brought his eyes right in front of Gago's.

"You...won't be able to escape."

Crack! Dawn crushed Gago's two fists with his own.

"I won't give you a peaceful death."

Kuhaaa! Dawn punched Gago's stomach, making him throw up blood.

"I will give you the most painful treatment you'll ever receive."

Puk!

"Ahhhhhhhh!"

Gago screamed when Dawn pierced his eyes and took his two eyeballs.

"Noisy bug."

Then, Dawn grabbed the throat of Gago and crushed it! The blood splattered on the ground and Dawn's face.

He made sure to seep some Aura to make sure Gago could feel the same humiliation he suffered.

Pak!

Kukh!

Crack!

All sorts of sounds could be heard within this silent battlefield.

Even his allies that came to rescue him didn't dare make a move in this situation.

Dawn didn't talk any further and just focused on destroying every part of Gago's body.

After a while, no one could even dare to look at Gago's...corpse.

Even then, Dawn didn't stop.

He continued smashing, destroying Gago for a long time.

Only after Gago was turned into something unrecognizable did Dawn stand up.

"You. Kill yourself."

Dawn spoke this without facing anyone.

However...

"I-I understand."

Slash!

Lam cut off his own neck readily.

Lam didn't want to turn into a paste of meat. He wanted to have at least his body intact.

He even had a peaceful look as his head dropped down to the ground.

That was how threatening Dawn was when he dismantled Gago.

Dawn looked over the solid corpse and the liquid corpse before turning back.

Then, as if he forgot something, he stopped and turned his head back sideways and said.

"Kneel."

Clang!

Thud.

The weapons in the goblins' hands were thrown to the ground, and they prostrated themselves before Dawn.

"Good."

It was Dawn's victory against a whole village.
