“How, madam? Will you lend me a hand?”
Makarov watched Mirae closely. Even in one glance he knew the woman had a dangerous disease because her body condition was very weak.
From his knowledge, even the powerful God Dog Demon race was not a fighter. Yet the woman in front of him was so weak that perhaps a novice adventurer could finish him off.
‘What did the boy think this time?’
He had already heard briefly the situation from Arcturus. The boy apparently wanted to recruit the Demon Dog God into his group. But he seems to be having a little trouble.
There are rumors of a mad dog going berserk in the Wizard kingdom. Makarov never expected that the dog that Arcturus was trying to recruit.
‘This boy has something big. Even The Apostle got interested in him.’
Luckily Makarov followed his instincts and sent Kitsune to find information with an alibi to convey the information.
Kitsune is, after all, a member of the Information Guild, a member that Makarov personally trained because of his extraordinary talent.
But it was very surprising when Kitsune arrived there, the messenger from the brothel was also present. Thanks to that Makarov has incredible information.
It was information about The Apostle who saw the future and contacted Arcturus. The answer is only one, it must be the future related to him.
Thanks to this Makarov increasingly oversaw the Religian Arcturus. The Young Master was famous for his extraordinary lust, but it started to change lately.
‘Although unfortunate Kitsune did not know what conversation he made with the Elves, but the fact that Apostle was interested in him is great news.’
“Ya .. sure, I'll help you. What should I do?”
Makarov shook his head, he thought too much. Now the important thing is how he accomplishes this task.
“You don't have to do anything, let my partner do the acting. Please yes, Kitsune.”
“Good, Mr.”
Kitsune smiled and approached Mirae without any hostility.
“Can give me your hand?”
Mirae obediently and let Kitsune shake her hand. Immediately a warm feeling flowed throughout his body. For a moment, Mirae knew what Kitsune was going to do and smiled.
“Arcturus Religia .. really cruel and terrible.”
It seemed that Arcturus Religia was earnestly wanting to reconcile with Mad Dog through this quarrel. That person doesn't seem to care in any way as long as the goal is achieved.
‘Yeah, I think it's fine. Please teach my foolish son .. that being strong is not just about having power.’
Mirae closed her eyes and smiled, feeling the wind gently embrace her.
...****************...
Arcturus kept running away while using the magic scroll he had. He continued to buy time while holding back on using Ashura.
“So it's true that your power has limitations, yes!”
Mad Dog lunged straight ahead with all his might. Perhaps he thought that the time it took Arcturus was much longer.
Unfortunately, three minutes have passed since then. As if waiting for this time, Arcturus reused Ashura.
“Who said I need time?!”
Arcturus moved quickly and banged his fists against Mad Dog. A powerful wave followed later and blew away anything around it.
It was a very violent impact until Arcturus felt pain in his hand. If not for the quick recovery from Ashura, perhaps his hand had already been shattered.
Arcturus certainly did not stop. He started kicking the shin at Mad Dog's feet and even banged his head. Within five seconds it takes as much damage as possible.
Soon the time was almost over Arcturus moved away as far as he could. His body felt like it was going to explode and his internal organs were very sick.
Arcturus almost vomited blood but he held it back this time. His strategy was to deceive Mad Dog about the duration of his use of force.
Within three minutes, Mad Dog would have desperately attacked before three minutes had passed.
‘I will reduce the cooling duration slowly while trying to look fine.’
• that's a good strategy. But think about your condition well.
The killer gave him a small warning. Using Ashura was painful, but with Arcturus constantly moving around using the Envy of Assassin also impacted his body.
“You keep running like a rat. If you have such great strength then fight with the males!”
Arcturus dodged him agilely despite several stones scraping his body.
Just as he passed the last tree that was thrown, Mad Dog already took a deep breath and roared.
“GROAARRR!!”
Arcturus won't have time to avoid it. He scanned the surroundings and immediately punched the ground.
“Third Step!”
Arcturus seemed to fall into the shadow and dodge the Mad Dog's attack.
“What the fuck?!” Mad Dog was about to curse, he had just seen such power.
Arcturus then appeared in the other direction, already opening the magic scroll and emitting lightning with a loud sound.
Mad Dog trembled pettyly due to the fear of the sound of thunder and the weakness of lightning. But he managed to gain self-control and dodge as he approached.
“Backed!”
Mad Dog solemnly took out all his strength and darted. Arcturus faltered because he could not even follow his movements at all.
As a result Arcturus hid in his shadow while peeking at the condition of Mad Dog who became wild.
“I really pissed him off.”
Arcturus began to wonder whether his plans for peace could still be done or not under these conditions.
• that person isn't even serious yet. He's a dog breed, certainly able to make a transformation.
The Emperor said so, making Arcturus slapped by reality again.
Mad Dog is the second main protagonist besides Alda. It is natural not to easily defeat him even though he is not literate for his true strength.
• you'd better keep hiding in the shadows for as long as possible. This will help you get a little better.
Suggestions from the Killer may be acceptable but there are other issues.
“He will definitely chase after Mary and the others. Somehow they did not teleport and still around the forest.”
Arcturus kept away from them for fear that Mad Dog would get even crazier and kill recklessly.
After some time Mad Dog madly hit any shadow around him. He probably thought Arcturus would get hurt if he did that.
But after some time Mad Dog finally gave up and kept quiet. Seeing that Arcturus came out of the shadows and stood face to face with Mad Dog.
“Do you finally want to listen? I don't want us to fight like this. I want to be friends with you, joke around and laugh. I will also save your mother from her illness—”
Mad Dog immediately interrupted before Arcturus finished his sentence.
“I admit you.”
“Hah?” Arcturus could not understand it.
“I admit that you are strong. Maybe the first one could push me this far. The fact is maybe I underestimated you too much.”
Arcturus was glad that Mad Dog no longer looked at him one eye. But his premonition got bad later.
“But that won't happen. I'll seriously consider you my enemy.”
Mad Dog's body began to glow, his muscles swelling bigger than before and his height increased. His teeth formed sharp fangs, half of his face being the face of a dog.
It was as if he was wearing a half-face mask and left his mouth still looking like a human.
Arcturus clenched his teeth, “Kergh! Why don't you understand too?! Your real enemy is the Demon Dog God, we have the same enemy!”
Arcturus began to lose his patience as well as calmness.
“You think your strong self can handle everything? Don't you understand the meaning of being strong? Don't you understand what your father meant by strength?!”
Seong Yohan is a good and devoted child not only to her mother, but also her father. The reason this bastard was so stubborn, thinking everything could be overcome alone if he became stronger was his father's contribution.
Mad Dog tied himself to his father's message which he misunderstood. Arcturus tried to show the true meaning of the man's words.
“Do not talk as if you know my father!” Mad Dog shouted furiously. “My father is never wrong! I have to be strong, so strong that no one is stronger!”
The curse Mad Dog had was his father's last message regarding strength.
