ALL NOVEL Chapter 89
89. Arriving At The Scene
“This can’t be…”
Listening to Ilza’s account, I was horrified.
A squad from the neighboring territory is closing in. And the opponent possesses a terrifying strength that even Ilza cannot match.
“Is this opponent called a Golem?”
Ilza nodded. I had a hunch.
Unique Skills. My
Coincidentally, they all share the names of their races. As Noah said, these skills have powerful effects.
Could it be that this ‘Golem’ also possesses a Unique Skill?
If so, he might know something about Noah. It’s a possibility.
Anyway, I need to see for myself!
“Ilza, come with me!”
I summoned a Warp Slime and set our destination to the village.
Boooom!
As soon as we arrived in the forest, the ground shook violently, as if an earthquake had struck.
Just as Ilza said, William must be fighting. I immediately ran toward the source of the tremors.
“Hahahahaha! Yes, Golem! Crush that insect!”
“Damn!”
I reached the scene quickly. A man was laughing loudly, backed by a squad of about fifty.
And in front of him. A boy with unkempt crimson hair stared silently.
His gaze fixed on the battered William.
“William!”
I rushed to his side and pulled him back.
“Arcs… you came!”
Kneeling, William placed his large hand on my arm.
His hand was bleeding, and his body was in shambles. Parts of his flesh were torn.
“Hold on, I’ll heal you now!”
I summoned a Healing Slime. Leaving the recovery to it, I laid William down and stepped forward.
“Who are you? Your sudden appearance is quite displeasing.”
Facing two men. The one in the back was clearly irritated, while the red-haired boy in front remained eerily expressionless.
These two were assassins from the neighboring Tsunberg territory. I sharpened my gaze.
“You’re a villain, aren’t you?”
“…What?”
I couldn’t help but voice my confusion at the back man’s words.
“Isn’t it obvious? You interrupted my enjoyment of tormenting the weak. In this world, there are only good people and villains. Therefore, you are a villain.”
“What nonsense is that? The premise that you’re good is absurd.”
“…What did you just say?”
The man’s voice dropped. His previously high-pitched tone turned ominously heavy.
“I am Matthew Tsunberg. Unlike a lowly human like you, I am a noble existence. How could a worm like you be good, and I be wrong? Why should I even consider the possibility of being wrong? No—I’m always right. I have always made the right choices. Thus, I am ‘good’ and will remain ‘good.’ I am the only conscience of this world, and everything else is wrong.”
His ranting was like a curse. His angry words made me break into a cold sweat.
This guy is hopeless. Just like Dan, he believes he’s absolutely right.
Leaving someone like him unchecked would be disastrous. I was sure of it.
“Golem, kill that man. After you’ve tortured him to death, I’ll desecrate his corpse.”
The red-haired boy nodded at Matthew’s words and lunged.
“Arcs! Get away from that man!”
William, mustering his strength, shouted. Following his advice, I kicked off the ground and leaped high.
“
The boy muttered. A white light flashed before me.
“No way!”
The light expanded rapidly, engulfing me.
This is—a blast!
Boooom!!
A loud explosion echoed. Despite the intense shock, the boy stood firm.
I managed to avoid the explosion. Steadying my breath, I fixed my gaze on the boy.
That was close. A moment later, I would’ve been caught in the blast. I would’ve been damaged for sure.
How should I attack—
“
Just as I was thinking, the boy struck the ground with his fist.
A moment later, a shockwave, like a raging tsunami, surged straight towards me, tearing up the ground. Its power surpassed the previous explosion!
“Damn!”
I summoned a Slime at my feet, stepping on it hard to jump and evade. But a white shockwave spread before me.
The boy watched me, expressionless. Calm yet ferocious in battle. Like a beast stalking its prey.
He’s strong. Both his combat style and abilities are beyond ordinary skills.
I’m sure of it. He has a Unique Skill.
