The Overlord of Blood and Iron

“Kuhuk…”

Sheville Polansky coughed in pain .

“Really?”

Kang Chul-In spoke, his voice cold .

“Did you really think I would fall to such an obvious trap?”

“ . . . !”

“Honestly, it was so obvious that it’s boring . ”

In the past, Kang Chul-In had been subject to many assassination attempts . He had even met an assassin after using the toilet once .

So would he, after being subject to so many assassination attempts, fall so easily like this?

Obviously not .

“There’s no time . ”

Kang Chul-In laughed .

“I’ll shatter your bones first . ”

Crack!

Sheville\'s arms twisted in weird angles .

“Aghhh!”

His bones completely bent out of shape, Sheville screamed in terror and pain .

“Let’s see how thick your bones really are . ”

Kang Chul-In laughed evilly .

He wanted to check just how thick Sheville\'s bones were for him to kidnap his daughter .

“I pray that you can last long . ”

“P-Please…”

“That mouth of yours first . ”

Crack!

“Ugh! Kuhuk…”

Sheville coughed up blood . It was because Kang Chul-In’s fist had \'destroyed\' his mouth .

Tuk…

Teeth began to fall on the floor, but that wasn\'t all .

Tuk .

Out of his mouth, a reddish-black object fell out .

“Uu… Uhhhh!!!”

Looking at it, Sheville’s body started to spasm .

“Uh… Uhhh!!”

It was his tongue .

“That’s right . ”

Kang Chul-In nodded, looking at the suffering Sheville . A satisfied smile was on his face .

“This fits you better . ”

“P-P-Pl… S…”

“You still dare to talk?”

With a laugh,

Pow!

Kang Chul-In kicked Sheville’s chin as if he were kicking a soccer ball .

“We’re not finished just yet . ”

Kang Chul-In shook his head .

He wouldn’t let go of the damned bastard that had kidnapped his daughter .

If it were someone else, he would have ended them already, but he just couldn’t let go of his anger .

“I will show you the meaning of pain . ”

Saying this, Kang Chul-In stretched his arm out, and poured mana straight into Sheville’s head .

“Hup…”

The response was instantaneous .

“Hehe! Hahahaha!”

Sheville started to laugh crazily .

“H-Huk?”

But then, he felt a bit strange .

“U . . . Uaghhh!!! Uahghjhghhh! AAahhhhhhh!”

He began to shriek as if this were the worst pain he had ever felt, even when compared with Kang Chul-In\'s earlier onslaught .

“This is what I prepared for you . ”

Kang Chul-In turned around .

There was no longer any desire for him to beat Sheville up anymore, but it also felt too merciful to just let him die . He decided to let his mana rampage inside Sheville before he died .

Now, I’ll take Arshelly, and…

-Sheville Polansky, suppression complete!

A notification popped up .

The requirements for his authority to activate had been completed .

Ah .

Kang Chul-In stopped .

So engrossed in his revenge, he had completely forgot about his new ability .

--------------------

Ah, I forgot about this ability .

Kang Chul-In’s eyes shone .

I forgot that this ability can be ranked as an SSS rank ability .

Even though he had forgotten due to the fact that Sheville Polansky was very easy to defeat for him, there were extreme merits and benefits to this ability . This could be an extreme counter against any magician or mage .

“You\'re lucky . ”

Kang Chul-In muttered, unsatisfied that Polansky would die so soon .

-----

While Kang Chul-In was busy taking Sheville Polansky’s ability, the Anatolian army had succeeded in breaking through the Bittermoon territory .

-Allahu Akbar!

-Allahu Akbar!

Under Baruk Al-Yusuf’s 「Mad God」 ability, the soldiers of Anatolia went on a rampage, destroying and killing the Bittermoon soldiers .

“Kill them all!”

The commander of the soldiers shouted at them .

“Don’t let any of the soldiers live, for Allah hasn’t given those non-believers the right to live!”

The man that encouraged this slaughter was an adventurer, and the man that Baruk Al-Yusuf cared most about as a subordinate .

Abubakar Shekau .

This Nigerian terrorist was also an extremely famous man on Earth, famous for his methods in killing non-Islamic individuals .

-Abubakar!

“ . . . !”

Abubakar could hear the voice of Baruk Al-Yusuf in his head .

Baruk Al-Yusuf could use telepathy on his most trusted subordinates .

Though only Baruk Al-Yusuf could talk using his telepathy,

“Oh! Great Khalifa!”

Hearing his voice, Abubakar still kneeled down in respect .

-I\'m giving you a mission . Soon, our ‘elites’ will go into the Bittermoon territory .

“T-Them?”

Hearing that Baruk Al-Yusuf would soon send in the ‘elites’, Abubakar’s body shook because he was extremely surprised .

-The aim and target is only one person, Overlord Kang Chul-In .

Baruk Al-Yusuf’s voice could be heard once more .

-Nothing else, just Kang Chul-In . Try your best to capture him alive, but kill him if you must and bring me his head .

“Of course, great Khalifa! This one will definitely bring him back and make him kneel in front of the Great Khalifa!”

Abubakar vowed .

Soon after, ‘they’ started to show themselves inside the Bittermoon territory .

-------

10 kilometres from the Chermart territory .

“Haha… hahahahaha!”

Kwak-Jung, who had lead the Laputa soldiers, was laughing .

“ . . . ”

James looked at Kwak-Jung, worried about what was happening .

What on…

Yes, what on earth .

James had no idea what Kwak-Jung was thinking .

All Kwak-Jung had done before this was turn on the illusion network, and made calls for almost 2 hours straight .

Did he call for reinforcements?

. . . Was James first thought, before erasing that possibility from his mind .

There was no one to call .

Their most trusted ally, Lee Chae-rin, was far away in the Pandemonium region, raking in money from her mines, and they hadn’t been able to reach Hecate recently .

He even thought of Aleister, but quickly erased that out of his mind too .

After being completely destroyed by Kang Chul-In during the Fox Valley battle, Aleister was barely able to keep his position as an Overlord . It would be a smart idea for him not to come .

Then Dorian Explorer?

Probably not .

Even though Dorian himself was quite powerful, his territory was barely the size of a village . There was no way that Dorian would have the troops to send .

Then why…

James was frustrated .

“Kuk . . . Kukuku…”

Meanwhile, Kwak-Jung was still laughing to himself---

“Kuku… Will I get a bonus this time? Maybe I’ll get to drive a Ferrari around…”

Muttering things that James couldn’t possibly understand .
