After I Stopped Sponsoring, the Female Leads Began Obsessing Over Me

69 – Strong Enemy

Numerous stores lined up in a row.

A variety of different races crowded together.

Ian was quite immersed in the festival.

The fact that the festival you enjoy for the first time in Fantasy is interesting is definitely one of the reasons for immersion.

It was also done to avoid being caught by the target.

Every time the target looked back, Ian headed to the street vendors lined up next to him.

Is it a hat street vendor this time?

“Please give me one of those rabbit hats. For the prisoner.”

“Yes, here it is!”

Ian, holding a hat in his hand, approached Danya, who was standing blankly.

A quiet guy today.

Where is Danya going, who is as bright as usual, and is as angry as a cat that has lost its energy after playing to its heart’s content.

Ian silently placed the hat with rabbit ears on Danya’s head.

“What is this…?”

Danya tilts her head and adjusts her hat.

Bunny ears fluttering following her touch.

I burst into laughter.

“Hmm. It suits you well.”

“Sigh!”

Danya bows her head.

Are you still feeling low?

Ian walked back and forth between street vendors, keeping a close eye on the front.

This time, a delicious hot dog.

“Danya. Try this.”

“Huh?”

I suddenly put a hot dog into Danya’s mouth as she looked up blankly.

“Umm… Yum. Yum.”

I eat flat porridge well.

Rabbit ears shaking every time she bites her mouth.

Seeing her like that, a satisfied smile formed on Ian’s lips.

This is why people raise animals.

Looking at it again, I think I bought that hat well.

‘That should block the sound to some extent.’

This is a festival site that will be thrown into chaos with a loud explosion sound.

Of course, when in a combat state, beastmen can fight while appropriately adjusting their hearing sensitivity, but loud noises while unguarded can be dangerous.

A man walking in the distance, looking around.

His true identity is Yulan Altisic, who was once in the same group in class.

‘Now it’s time for that guy to make his move.’

Avoiding Yulan’s glance, Ian bought sugar-covered fruit. Just like that, it ended up in Danya’s mouth.

“Ian… I think I’m full…”

“Eat a lot and grow well.”

“Umm… No! But I’m all grown up! Yum!”

“Yes. Yes. There are a lot of things I need to cheer up afterward.”

“Strength? Huh…?”

Walk like that for a while.

I felt like the sleeves of my clothes were being pulled for a moment, and then a huge explosion hit the festival.

Kwaang—!

An explosion sound announcing the start of an assassination event.

It is a loud roar that freezes the surroundings for an instant.

Then, from afar where the explosion was heard, screams began to erupt as if they were infectious.

— Bwaaah!

People running away screaming.

Ian held Danya’s hand.

Danya’s help is definitely needed in this case. Because it would be difficult to get swept away by people.

Danya also held Ian’s hand tightly.

Dania suddenly came to her senses when she felt Ian’s hand covering her hand.

“Ian, why are we running towards the explosion?”

“You know Princess Asteria, right?”

“Since we are in the same class, of course-“

“She’s in danger now. We have to go save her.”

Danya did not ask any more questions and tightened his hand without saying a word.

“Thank you.”

“Because we are colleagues.”

Bam—! Kwaang—!

Explosions rang out one after another as if artillery shells were falling.

Smoke rising into the sky.

At first glance, huge explosions as if a war had broken out.

It looks extremely serious, but in fact, it is not that serious.

If the story is progressing properly, there will be no deaths among the general public. Is it to the extent that people in panic get mixed up and end up getting hurt?

Those explosions and smoke are just devices set up by the Shale Church for ‘assassination’.

Ian briefly briefed Danya on the plan.

What we are chasing is Yulan Altisic, and there is a high possibility that he is a shaman and the mastermind behind this incident. And a strategy on how to deal with him and his group.

Danya immediately grasped the situation and began tracking Yulan using her beastman senses.

“…I went into the alley in front of me.”

A full-scale chase has begun.

◆

Unlike the downtown area where the festival was in full swing, the alleys were dark and narrow.

A musty smell and puddles of water everywhere.

Danya played the role of guide so well that if Ian had come alone, it would have been difficult for him to follow in Yulan’s footsteps.

“I can hear the sound of horses coming from around the corner of the alley over there.”

Ian stopped quietly following Danya and listened.

– “Do you know who this person is!”

– “Third Princess Asteria?”

– “You guys know that! Don’t think you guys are safe!”

Ian cautiously stuck his head out over the wall.

Dense smoke.

As soon as it cleared, he could see the situation turning around.

Princess Asteria lying on the floor.

Next to her was a short-haired black guard holding a dagger.

But her condition is also not good, as if she was caught in a trap.

Standing on the other side of them was Julan Altisic, and three Shale Church members who appeared to be his limbs.

Yulan opened his mouth to his dark-haired escort.

“It’s difficult. You talk as if there’s no boat behind us. hahahaha.”

“What a shame to something like Shaleam Bridge…!”

“Oh, hahahaha. It hurts my heart when you ignore me like that. We’re doing all of this with permission, right?”

“What? You guys can’t believe it…!”

“It would be difficult to ask any more questions than that.”

Smile.

Yulan showed a unique smile.

“Anyway, Karen.”

The black-haired escort flinched.

“How do you say my name…!”

“If it’s money, we can give you more? What do you think? This is what’s attached.”

“Our family never betrays its clients!”

“Then there’s nothing I can do.”

Grin.

At the same time, the corners of Yulan’s mouth rose.

The red-haired church member behind him shot out at a speed that was difficult for the eye to catch.

— Whoa!

The princess’s escort. Karen’s new model collapsed.

A red-haired person with only a small scratch on his face.

He licks the blood splattered on his face.

‘I guess I have no choice but to intervene.’

Ian quickly finished calculating the situation.

From noble mtl dot com

That red-haired bloodman. It’s strong enough to cut down the princess’s guard with a single blow… The one stronger than him is clearly Yulan.

‘I will have to make him absorb the princess’s blood.’

Shale Cultists cannot move when absorbing life force.

You will have to take advantage of that timing to deal with the remaining ones.

“As expected, it was you, Yulan.”

“What… Ian Black Angus?”

Yulan opens his eyes wide.

“Why did you come here? I thought you were going on a date. If you were looking for a hotel and couldn’t find it, there’s a nice hotel over there, right? They have a variety of equipment.”

“Oh, really? Thank you. The alley is so complicated.”

“By the way, you have a taste for beast-like prostitutes. You’re really amazing, too.”

“Who is the whore?”

Danya gets angry.

Both Ian and Yulan ignored her.

“But she looks like Asteria.”

Yulan smiles at Ian’s words.

“I’ll give you a special look. Just pretend you didn’t see me and pass by.”

“I don’t think that’s possible. It’s such a waste that the princess becomes a sacrifice for the Shaleam cultists.”

“hahahahaha! As expected, you knew, right?”

“You go around too openly.”

“hehehe. Mr. Ian. Mr. Ian Black Angus.”

Hijuk.

The corners of Yulan’s smiling mouth instantly lowered.

With just a blank expression, murderous intent is immediately written across the face.

“They say you’re too bad.”

His mouth opened coldly.

“Even in that dormitory. Sharon thought it was strange ever since that crazy b*tch came out without even knowing the topic and snuck in on her there. No matter how perverted she was, she had no reason to be in the girls’ dormitory at that time. “

Trug. Trudging.

Yulan took a step towards the princess.

“The reason you’re alive is because ‘that person’ wants you. Know the subject. You piece of trash.”

Wheeing—.

A translucent film has formed around Julan Altisic.

His signature skill. Protective barrier.

That protective shield is an impregnable barrier that is completely propertyless and does not suffer from the compatibility of any element.

A weakness of the Shale Cultist that arises while absorbing life force.

This is a skill that perfectly offsets that.

He wraps one arm around the princess’s waist and hugs her.

“And above all. This person will not be important to you. Don’t be too greedy and go on your way. Forget everything you saw today. My subordinates will help you forget.”

Smile.

His originally disgusting smile returned.

He places his mouth on the princess’s neck and murmurs.

“Kill the woman, and subdue the man if possible. If he resists…”

Puuk.

Blood flowing from the princess’s neck with a horrifying sound.

“I’m sure he’ll forgive you for at least one arm.”

I bow my head towards the two blackened church members and Yulan, a blood person.

“Stay back, Danya.”

As Ian muttered, he immediately transformed the Lunar staff that he carried around his waist.

Lunar spread out in the shape of a shield.

Blood is sprinkled on it.

— Cheeek!

“Slow down, you bastard.”

This is a raid pattern using one’s own blood that Shaleam believers often use.

It was already within Ian’s prediction.

While one of the blackened church members who had approached for a surprise attack was embarrassed.

Quaaang—!

Ian’s fist, surrounded by Lunar, crushed his skull.

Thump thump thump.

Ian’s heart begins to beat rapidly in time for battle.

Changs rushed in without any time to take a breath.

This is a spear fired by another black-faced church member.

Dodge by using your strengthened arms.

Needle liquid—!

A grass-attribute arrow flew from behind and pierced the guy between the eyes.

But it is not enough to finish.

Ian approaches the guy, grabs him by the neck, and opens his mouth.

“Wash the dishes.”

— Cheeek!

If things were to go according to nature, the body should have already withered away.

The throat, which has been purified and has lost its vitality, falls off.

Two blackened shale believers were dealt with at once.

“…Hoo.”

The red-haired man stares at Ian with amusement.

As long as the same side was being attacked by Ian, there was clearly a gap for Ian.

If he had attacked Ian at that time, he would not have been able to stop it.

Nevertheless, the blood man just watched quietly from behind.

“… You look like you have a little taste for fighting.”

Ian quietly stared at the blood man.

The hair that has turned red and the eyes that seem to be filled with blood are evidence of blood transformation.

It literally means that he is an expert who has reached a fairly high level even in the law of the jungle.

The blood man slowly raised his sword.

The blade is as red as the color of his hair.

‘Is it a magic sword?’

The guy puts his wrist on the blade of the sword.

I’m crying. I’m crying. A sword that drinks blood.

Soon, grotesque veins sprout from the sword body.

“You said one arm is okay, so I’ll take that as food for this guy.”

His new weapon was fired at Ian.
