Chapter 55
Dohyuk became tense with nervousness .
'I didn't miss . '
He intended to finish him with the kick .
It was the 'slicing' kick . However, right before the kick struck, Changkun twisted his face and was struck with the back of the foot instead of the bladed side . If it wasn't for that, he would have been dead with his head sliced in half .
Before Dohyuk closed in, Changkun took something out and began swinging it . It was a small dagger that was aimed at his own wrist .
[Dagger used for rituals in Grava worship . It is not powerful, but it allows the user to use their own blood to summon hounds with Grava's divine power . The power of hounds is determined by the user's physical attributes . ]
A Godly Item bestowed by Grava, blood dripped from Changkun's wrist and turned into a hound the size of a calf . Dohyuk tried to fight it-
-W-what are you doing?! Get away from that thing!
But he suddenly heard a voice in his head and dodged the hound's attack instead .
-It will stick to you the moment it touches you . It doesn't do any damage . It can only chase and bind the target .
It was Aruga's voice . Dohyuk had been hearing his voice ever since he entered the city . It was all because of him that he knew what to do about the man named Kang Changkun .
Dohyuk turned to his opponent . Another hound was appearing, so Dohyuk quickly jumped out of the building through the hole from the previous attack . One of the hounds jumped, trying to chase Dohyuk, but it seemed that it couldn't jump that high .
'It's not fast either . '
Dohyuk then organized his thoughts . Those hounds were made from blood that Changkun released . So…
-Two is probably his limit .
Aruga confirmed his guess .
"And the way to fight them?"
-Water or heat
The latter was Aruga's specialty . This was Aruga's city, after all . Just like how he attacked Dohyuk, he would have to create an avatar and unleash his ray of light which would kill the hound . In fact, he had the power to kill Kang Changkun if he wanted to . What was important was the reasoning for that .
-I think you know, but I'm…
"Yeah . "
Dohyuk wasn't his follower, but Kang Changkun was a follower of Grava . Even if he was utilizing the city as a slave encampment, he was abiding the city's rules . If Aruga attacked Changkun in his current state, it would be the same as Aruga touching Grava's property for no reason . And this meant that Grava's followers would wage war against Aruga's cities .
"You don't need to explain . " Dohyuk said, "It's a deal . "
It was enough for Aruga to have given him the information he needed . Dohyuk turned and braced himself to fight the ones climbing up…
"…Hey . "
-…Yeah?
"Didn't you say two was the limit?"
There were about five hounds that had climbed up and were growling .

-You know… I hate getting hurt .
Then, Dohyuk saw Changkun also coming up . His wrist was bleeding profusely . Even if it was a body that had changed, it seemed that the bleeding was a bit dangerous .
"Even if I have a Nature that regenerates… withstanding pain is a different thing . So, it's best to not get hurt at all . "
He was slicing his wrist open that was about to heal up .
"So, you . I won't let you die easily . You know that, right?"
Even his teeth were growing back .
"And you won't tell me who you are anyway . " Changkun spat .
"No . "
"I'm Yoo Dohyuk . "
"…THE Yoo Dohyuk?" Changkun stared curiously . It seemed that he was amused rather than shocked .
"I can see that you came from the north… well, let's say you are Yoo Dohyuk . So what business brings you all the way here?"

"I didn't have any reason to come . At least, in the beginning I didn't . But now I do . "
"What?" Changkun didn't understand what he meant, but it was the truth .
"I don't think those who sent me here expected this… but it will be helpful . This is a place where 'beasts' oppress 'humans', right?"
What he needed to do was simple: kill the beasts and save the people .
"So, you're here to take my turf and slaves . That's some nice rewording you did there . "
Changkun laughed, "So, you're like me . You feel good when people look at you, right?"
"What?"
"I don't care if you are Yoo Dohyuk or not . "
Changkun raised his finger .
"I offer this hunt to my Lord, Grava . " He pointed at Dohyuk, "If I can't bring that bastard's heart to you, I will offer mine . I swear, O' Lord . "
An oath made by a follower to their god . Grava responded with a gift .
Changkun's stats and the power of his Nature increased tremendously . Even the hounds grew bigger . As the hounds charged,
"I allow it," Dohyuk said . "You can eat my mana . "

Dohyuk's body began to heat up . The heat wave arose from his body and concentrated on his two legs, covering them with flames .
It was the power of the Parasitic Spirit that he tested as he came to the city . Feeding it with his mana allowed him to wield flame around his body . Dohyuk kicked, destroying one of the hounds . Changkun immediately whistled and recalled his other dogs .
Dohyuk turned .
'I can't fight him here . . . '
-It's not yummy .
He started running from roof to roof .
The hounds and Changkun did not have enough Agility points to catch up to Dohyuk . One by one, Dohyuk destroyed the hounds and ran across the buildings . However, it wasn't going to last long .
Dohyuk felt like he was out of 'air' now . It wasn't real air but…
-It's not yummy . NOT YUMMMMMMMYYY .
His mana was now running low . But…
