Requiem Of A Failed Hero



Mok Jun-Seo was talking but suddenly stopped talking. The transition however was so abrupt that Raith caught it instantly. His brow furrowed as he looked at Mok Jun-Seo, not a second later...

...everything began to vibrate so much that snow was almost dancing in fear of the tremor. It became even worse and it was hard to maintain balance.

Just when Raith was about to stumble a step away from equilibrium. He returned.

From his perception. Mok Jun-Seo had just finished shouting:

"I believe you!"

'I have seen this before'

Raith frowned, sure that this was the second time he was hearing Mok Jun-Seo shout but unsure of what had just happened now. Mok Jun-Seo however, did not seem like he caught anything unusual.

Raith thought about asking but decided not to. It was after then that he noticed the expression on Mok Jun-Seo was familiar.

A sort of continuation smile after saying something embarrassing. Raith frowned again, suspecting what might have just happened.

Then the ground began to shake with tremors and it was just like he suspected.

He literally just went into the future?

How many minutes? Two? One? Hell, this was new!

Raith's mind was almost clogged with different thoughts. Too many things were suddenly happening at the same time and this was interesting. Just how much has he changed?

While wondering, the tremor hit massively. He was about to stumble when the glimpse of the same scenario he experienced moments before flashed through his eyes. Like a reflex, he rolled into the air and landed.

He watched his initial crack open and dissolve into water. He would have been in the cold water now if not because he had experienced the future. Not that it would do him any good but it hit differently because he just saw the future. Even though it was too short to be called 'seeing the future

'Foresight'

ραndαsnοvεl.cοm When one's perception surpasses human limits, it surpasses the restraints of time. Hence, it is possible to perceive anything even if there is a drastic lapse in time. However, that drastic lapse was a question of how much perception the person had.

Raith's body and mind with a second heart had surpassed all physical limits. And with that, his stats were experiencing the same thing. The best reason he could think of was the crystal of creation affecting him on all sides.

He couldn't go too deep into what was happening to him, nor did he know what else was affected.

'At this rate, I might not be able to hold a grudge against that damn asura'

If Cor-Ellion had not stabbed him and put him in a time loop. This wouldn't have happened.

Raith came off himself and looked at the cracking ice.

"Something is off."

He said to Mok Jun-Seo who was safe from danger without needing help.

"I think so too..."

'It seems like something is moving.'

Mok Jun-Seo traced the cracks in the ice. As he suspected they were moving in a zigzag pattern and breaking at a point where the ice wasn't that strong.

The tremor with each movement suggested that it was a very powerful creature. A snake? A worm?

Mok Jun-Seo was experienced when it came to monsters. He could already tell a few monsters that fit into the diagnoses and could as well tell how badly things were looking for them.

But even he too was no slouch.

The vibration seeped in once again. Causing even stronger tremors and right between him and Raith who seemed dazed and out of focus for some reason, the ice began to swell and crack.

It was very hard ice and the creature was continually hitting it over and over again.

"Hunter Raven! It's coming!"

Mok Jun-Seo screamed but Raith paid no special attention to his voice.

Frustrated, Mok Jun-Seo leaped over the swelling crack, hoping he would reach Raith before the creature succeeded in breaking into the surface. But to his shock, things did not go as planned.

He and the creature were right on the money.

Just as he jumped, the creature plunged into the air, scattering debris of ice all around.

Barely by the skin of his teeth, Mok Jun-Seo had escaped the rattling mandibles that were strong enough to crush through the layer of eyes. If Mok Jun-Seo was 0.01 seconds late, he would have lost a leg.

Sweat poured from his face as he panted from surviving a pinch with the monster that now towered over them. Raith whom he had thrown himself in harm's way for was looking unbothered by his near-death experience. Instead, he was fixated on the strange creature

'Why is there a monster out in the open? This is not Therut, there shouldn't be field monsters. Is there a gate break somewhere?'

Whatever incident affected the earth and caused the gates to start appearing. It affected every part of the world.

But no one cared about Antarctica, even with the awakening of humans. It was not possible to survive the harsh environment in that place. It became manageable for some. But fighting monsters under such hard weather conditions was suicide.

Given all these conditions, there was no way to know the current state of the continent as regards gates and monster infestation.

First of all, before anything...

Raith looked up with a scowl.

'I need to kill this thing.'

Stretching out his fingers, the black steel materialized into his grip. In the same fashion, the shadow helmet adorned his face. Taking charge of its own destiny. If not, Raith was bound to forget about it again.

'Atta boy!!'

Bal complimented the shy ego who just stayed silent even afterward.

As if the monster had sensed his hostility, it lowered its head. High above them, right there, stood still for a few minutes. Its large iridescent blue eyes with a subtle shimmering glowing staring death into the two humans that were below it.

To an extent, curiosity loomed in the eyes of the monster. Even though it was not outspoken, it was possible to tell by the way it observed them. However, it did not stay still for long.

With a loud screech, it lunged its head at them, crushing into the eyes as they jumped away from its aim.

While Mok Jun-Seo took several steps away to stand a ground wide enough for him to be calculative. Raith had launched himself at the monster, swinging down his sword on one of its legs as he failed to reach the back of the monster as he had predicted—

—the monster had pulled its head out of the crushed ice, raising its back. Hence the calculated momentum Raith jumped with was not enough—not wanting to lose anything Raith slashed down his sword as he came down, taking one of the monster's blue leg with him.
