Chapter 201

〈 202화 〉 199화 – I’m Gonna Give You a Reward.

*

In an instant, the VIP room was obliterated.

A wave of bullets surged in out of nowhere.

Even though my aim was idiotic, the effect was quite significant.

[……Did you not aim for the head?］

‘That’s how you hit the arms or legs.’

Anyway, since I didn’t plan to kill them, my decision to aim for the head was spot on.

As a result, of the roughly ten people in the VIP room, five got hit by bullets.

The injured animal enthusiasts screamed, clutching their wounded areas.

“My arm!!! Who the hell attacked us!!!”

“Fck!!! I’m a half-sacks now!!! I can’t even get a job at Nopia because of this unclear TS!!!”

“You’re just one! I’ve got two blown off!”

“I’ve got both legs shot through!!! At this rate, I’m gonna turn into a Golden Lion! ”

“The idea of a Golden Lion is turning me on. I wanna eat a lion.”

– Kbang!

The guy who said that was lying right in front of me, so I gave his head a whack with the minigun.

That alone started to break the minigun down into nothing, and naturally, the animal enthusiast that got hit fainted, blood gushing from his head.

[What are you doing if you’re going to capture them alive!! Fck, hitting them with that will just kill them!!!］

‘If they die from that, it’s just natural causes. There’s nothing we can do.’

With the metal sound echoing, this time, Caressy and Ayeon quickly entered the VIP room.

“Please just die!”

“Even if the Lord forgives you, my fist won’t go easy!!!!”

Caressy and Ayeon stomped down on the Chief’s Son trying to get up at the same time, and Caressy began beating him.

Definitely, they were going after the fattest guy, just as I said.

Just in time, the panicked shouts of men came from the hallway.

“We heard gunshots from the VIP room!”

“Why are there suddenly butterflies and thorns here!”

“Who just walked by here a moment ago!”

“Hey, wait a minute. If we stick a hamster into this gap, doesn’t it become Stuck In Wall? That’s actually good.”

“Isn’t it kind of hot that butterflies are flying around? I could totally get with butterflies.”

“Then, should we all pull one out each for now?”

Anyway, it seemed that Elcia was successfully blocking the hallway with her ability.

I figured even if it were breached, it wouldn’t be a problem.

Hyeji stood firmly at the back.

At that moment, someone shouted.

“Shut up and break the ‘wall’ first! There might be another ‘wall’ behind this ‘wall’! Like a steel ‘wall’!”

– Puuk!

“Ugh!”

“Fck, that bastard is out for blood.”

Reacting to the man who emphasized the word ‘wall’, Hyeji unconsciously conjured a spear and threw it.

The thorn-covered wall instantly reshaped to create a passage for the spear, which embedded itself precisely in the man’s thigh.

Fortunately, the passage that appeared in the wall was filled up just as quickly, leaving it as it was originally.

“Hyeji unnie! Next time, please let me know before you throw! It’s really hard to control this!”

“Why did you put your doll clothes back on then?”

“Thinking about it, I brought way too many snacks!”

That was very Elcia-like, but she was definitely fulfilling her role.

I heard sounds of powers and tools being used to break through the temporary barrier Elcia made, but it was solidly holding.

Meanwhile, I hadn’t noticed when I first entered, but looking again, I saw that there was a wall of katanas on display.

Judging by all the figures that were in the bar earlier, this must also be the bar owner’s collection.

Moreover, it looked well-maintained with not a speck of dust on it.

[Thinking about it, you’ve never used a katana, have you?］

‘Uncle Kang-hyuk never taught me how to use one properly either.’

In contrast, below the wall were a bunch of tools like hammers and nails scattered about.

They must have been used to decorate the wall with the katanas.

As I pondered whether to take a few as souvenirs, the Chief’s Son shouted at me desperately.

“Fck, it’s you again!”

“Shut your mouth, animal enthusiast bastard. Were you trying to have another round with the animal enthusiasts here?”

Then, the animal enthusiasts lying on the ground started whining.

“I’m not an animal enthusiast! The girl I fell for just happened to be an animal!”

“Why the hell is there any problem with us loving each other! Is love a crime or something!!!”

“Can’t I like animals? I should be allowed to love animals! What the fck is wrong with this shtty world* that people are bothering me!!!”

Such twisted affection for animals truly showed.

For those people, I offered a benevolent smile and calmly said,

“To think your love is this level. You animal enthusiasts deserve a reward.”

Upon my words, the animal enthusiasts eyes lit up.

In hopes that I might set them free.

“Don’t get your hopes up, you shtheads!!!*”

But that was not the case.

Ayeon conjured a summoned beast and began overwhelming and knocking out the conscious ones one by one.

“Wow! A white wolf looks awesome! I’m horny!”

“Shut your mouth.”

The animal enthusiast was obsessed with lust to the end, while Ayeon was colder than ever.

Anyway, I didn’t plan to just stand by, so I grabbed a hammer from the toolbox and began a lesson on discipline.

“Fulfill my last wish!”

“What is it?”

“Just let me hit a bear once.”

– Kwak!

“Aaaargh!!!!!”

The appearance of physical therapists.

[Can’t you just kill them? This is really shtty*.］

‘I need to keep them breathing though.’

However, there was one presence that doused our healing efforts with cold water.

– Paak!

“What the hell is going on at this holy meeting?”

A semi-naked man.

He glared at us holding a baseball bat.

The summoned beast with a sunken head next to him fading indicated that he must have caused such results with a single hit.

At that moment, the last remaining conscious animal enthusiast crawled towards the man and shouted.

“President! Please save us!”

“I understand. Don’t worry. Just to be safe, could you confirm my victory for me?”

His tone was surprisingly gentle compared to how he spoke to us.

That previous statement from the animal enthusiast also suggested that this guy seemed to be the president of these animal enthusiasts.

At that moment, numbers began to rise above the animal enthusiast approaching the president.

“The President will defeat all of you here! This is certain!”

“Thank you. Now you can rest.”

He smiled brightly at the president.

Finally, as the president’s words seemed to ease the tension, the last animal enthusiast lost consciousness.

Unfortunately, I was a bit too far away to check the pre-reversal future using the mirror fragment.

‘In the pre-reversal future, we won? Hyeji is here too?’

[I don’t know. What on earth does it mean that we won?］

Furthermore, looking back at the president, it seemed he wasn’t as easy as he initially appeared.

He was not just a big guy but had abnormally bulging muscles.

There was no way he reached that naturally, so he must have used some drugs and done a ton of training.

It felt like the limit of the human body.

[Be careful. While I may not know about the other things, his strength seems vastly superior to yours.］

‘This is gonna be tough. If he can take out a summoned beast in one hit with a baseball bat.’

Just then, the Chief’s Son was knocked out by Caressy’s cat punch barrage.

Now only the president remained.

He was likely to prefer close combat.

However, Ayeon could attack from a distance, and Caressy could fight at a distance with her cat paw too.

The matchup was definitely in our favor.

“I learned from Sei to chop off an arm first!”

“In that case, let’s aim for the right arm!”

“The direct consort is the butterfly, right!”

[What are you talking about! The direct consort is Tir!］

Each of us summoned magical swords, a white wolf, and cat paws to launch a simultaneous attack on the president.

The target was already discussed; the right arm.

Although capturing him alive was a bit of a tall order.

It seemed like we could definitely put up a fight.

That’s what I thought.

“Get lost.”

“Huh? Fck?*”

Just before the president’s words continued.

Suddenly, in an instant, my magically conjured longsword sizzled and vanished.

And that was not just a problem for me.

“Why is it suddenly disappearing!”

“Divine power isn’t working!”

Ayeon’s summoned beast, and even Caressy’s cat paws vanished unexpectedly.

In that moment of all of our confusion.

The president rushed in.

His target was Caressy.

The baseball bat he swung aimed for Caressy‘s small head.

“For now, let’s deal with the beast-people that the Super Coward Club is stepping on.”

“Meow?!”

I quickly grabbed Caressy‘s arm and flung her back, shouting urgently.

“Ayeon, catch Caressy, and take that pig outta here!”

“Got it!”

With no further sounds, thankfully, it seemed Ayeon caught her in time.

Meanwhile, the baseball bat headed toward Caressy quickly adjusted its trajectory and was now aiming for me.

The target was my left shoulder.

I swiftly twisted my body, narrowly escaping its path.

– Buwong!!!

The baseball bat ripped through the air fiercely, and a moment later, the sound of it followed.

That was a significantly powerful attack.

Had Caressy taken that hit, her head would have definitely shattered.

But now it was my turn.

In the brief window right after the president attacked.

I quickly slipped in and drove my left fist into the president’s solar plexus.

– Peurk!!!

I hit it as hard as I could.

But the president didn’t budge at all.

Just in case, I tried to reinforce my arm with magic as I struck, but no power reacted.

Now I started to understand what was going on.

It seemed like the president we were fighting was.

“You can’t be a Nullification Ability User, can you?”

“Is it necessary to say that out loud?”

It looked like he was indeed a Nullification Ability User.

Similar to the bank robber I fought before.
