The Great Sorcerer
Travelling to the City of Mertur #4

And so is Jason who is hiding in his carriage while hoping for his safety.

Jason's body shook violently, making his horse carriage also vibrate because of his large body. “God, please, save servant.” Jason's prayer in my heart.

*From Duar*

The sound of a bang from Owen's magic attack plus the attack on the two Hell Hounds that were mutually unpretentious filled the void of the forest atmosphere.

Owen attempted to take his sword, but the two Hell Hounds were unwilling to take it off.

They retaliated against each other, but no one managed to injure all three of them.

Owen was able to evade their invasions and Owen's attacks could be fended off very easily.

But the longer, Owen's mana gets depleted and his stamina also decreases. “Ck!! Siaal!!” Owen said with annoyance.

And in the meantime, the movement of the Hell Hound became even faster and its attacks became stronger than before. “GRRR!!” Geru the creature.

“Haah... Haaah..” Breath of Owen began to pant.

“If this continues, I could be the one who died.” Owen.

Owen then tried to work out a plan in his head. But I Hell Hound seemed not to give it time to think, and continued to launch attacks on Owen.

Owen then tried to change his fighting style, which he initially fought at close range, now he tries to attack from long range.

Owen then made a triangle-shaped hand seal with the tips of his thumb and index finger attached to each other.

And instantly a green magic circle appeared on the triangular emblem he made with his finger.

“Magic of Wind-Hurricane.”

*wung*

The magic circle gave off a bright green light which then came out a whirlpool which shot at high speed towards the Hell Hound.

*WUUZZH*

And the attack hit Hell Hound there.

The typhoon was like sucking up a Hell Hound and then directly throwing it into the forest.

*BRAK*

The Hell Hound smashed into a huge tree, and instantly made the tree collapse to the ground.

But Owen's body was no longer strong, there was already too much mana that he used in that fight.

*bruk*

Owen knelt on the ground, and his breath was already irregular.

Seeing the two Hell Hounds crashing deep into the forest, made Owen a little proud. “B-Success.”

But it did not last long, his pride instantly disappeared when he saw the two Hell Hounds jumping towards him with their mouths wide open and ready to pounce on him.

Owen was very surprised and he did not have time to make a move, having just used quite a lot of mana.

But.

*BRAAAK*

The two Hell Hounds were again knocked down by Deorsa who hit him with his large body.

“Who dares disturb my sleep!? HAA!?” He shouted very annoyed.

“Chairman?” Owen.

Owen was indeed very upset by the nature of his chairman Deorsa, who always told his subordinates while he relaxed spending his own time.

But on the other hand, Owen admitted with Deorsa's strength is above average.

Deorsa then glanced at Owen who was still bent on the ground. “Where is your friend?” Deorsa said as he threw Owen's sword.

*Prang*

Owen then immediately grabbed his sword, and immediately took it out of his protective sheath. “She's no.” Owen answered briefly.

“Hmmm.. So do ya.” Reply Deorsa.

And it didn't take long, the two Hell Hounds reappeared, and now they're really angry.

It was visible from his eyes that had become extremely sharp, and his breath was letting out a gust of white smoke as well as a red line on his brightly lit lips.

***

Meanwhile, Rio and Hugo sneak into Jason's carriage and attempt to save themselves.

Jason who was also in the horse carriage was a little surprised.

“Ja-Jason, let's go from here.” Rio.

Jason looked at Rio's eyes which were already enveloped by that fear and panic.

Deorsa lunged forward towards the Hell Hound, then grabbed an axe stored on its back.

“HEAAAGH!” Deorsa swung his axe.

*BGOM*

But the attack only hit the ground, and the land left a huge crack in the Deorsa attack.

The two Hell Hounds dodged, which was then their turn to attack.

“Groaaar”

Instead of counter-attacking, a giant fist landed on the face of one of the Hell Hounds, sending it crashing to the ground with blood spurting from its eyes.

And the other Hell Hound got an axe blade strike that split it into two halves.

Owen, who was filling his mana back with the help of his sword, was immediately dumbfounded.

Rio, Hugo, and Jason also battle Deorsa from his chariot.

They were also astonished to see the power of Deorsa so great.

Deorsa managed to kill the two Hell Hounds with his own hands without using any magic at all.

“Cuih!” Deorsa spat on Hell Houn's body. “No one can disturb my sleep time, even Hell Hound though.” Deorsa said with great annoyance.

Seeing that, Owen recalled the previous one trying to wake Deorsa up with his feet.

He imagined what it would be if at that time Deorsa really woke up at that time and immediately adopted himself.

Owen was speechless, and could only swallow his own saliva.

Deorsa then turned towards Owen. Owenpun surprised and began to panic, thinking that actually Deorsa realized that he had also disturbed his sleep.

“No! Nah! I'm sorry” Owen crawled backwards away from Deorsa. I'm not kemak-”

“Where's the body?” Ask Deorsa.

Owenpun was silent hearing that. “Oh it...”

Owen then pointed to the source of Gren's earlier yelling voice.Last “, I heard it from that direction.” Answer Owen.

Deorsa then turned to the direction that Owen meant, and immediately walked there.

“It looks like it's safe.” Jason.

Rio and Hugo heaved a sigh of relief. “Deorsa is indeed very reliable.” Rio.

Hugopun agreed.

*Tap Tap Tap*

Deorsa walked into the forest, which Owen followed behind.

And sure enough there were patches of fresh blood around the bushes and tree trunks, as well as pieces of Gren's clothes. But his body was not found which means he was eaten by the two Hell Hounds.

Owen's tears began to flow down his cheeks.

Owen had known Gren from the first time he had joined the guard group of the city governor of Mertur, despite Gren's lazy and a little bit of disgust, but he was already considered his own brother.

Deorsa then stood firm, and paid his last respects to his fallen subordinate Gren.

Owen wiped his tears and paid his last respects.

After that, Deorsa walked back towards governor Hugo, who became the person he had to protect.

But before that, Deorsa wanted to carry one of the Hell Hound's remains, as this was also the first time he had seen such a large Hell Hound.

And able to fend off Owen's magic attack, especially when Deorsa hit one of the Hell Hounds earlier, he felt a powerful magic energy flow inside.

And intended to give it to the Guild to research more deeply about the Hell Hound.

But when Deorsa wanted to take Hell Hound's body, suddenly the two Hell Hound bodies lying on the ground were no longer there.

Deorsa and Hugo became surprised and curious. “Didn't his body be here?” Ask Owen.

Deorsa and Owen tried to look around.

*Prok Prok Prok*

Suddenly there was applause from the forest.

*Tap Tap Tap*

The sound of walking footsteps approached Deorsa and Owen, who turned out to be a man in a black robe emerging from behind the forest.

“Waaah, you were great at beating both my pets quickly.” Say that man.

The man wore a black robe that covered his entire body, but he did not wear his cloak skull, as if he was deliberately showing off the burn marks on his face.

“Who ka-” Deorsa suddenly flinched, as did Owen who felt an enormous negative aura from the mysterious man.
