The woman tightly bit her lips.
Goblins liked to tease their prey.
They would never simply kill their prey.
Instead, it might be better to bite her tongue and die now.
But, she didnt have the courage.
Pl, please dont come closer.
Those words were all she could mutter.
The scrawny woman took out a marble from her bosom.
The marble was cut in half. It was emitting a purple light and a hidden power could be felt.
Muyoung who saw that half opened his eyes as if it was unexpected.
Marble of Territory?
He finally seemed to understand how she came all the way here after going past the pack of fossae.
Honestly, he was half-doubtful.
The fossae were currently surrounding from afar and were slowly closing their distance. But, unless someone was quite strong, it was impossible for someone to slip through their blockade and approach Muyoung.
So he thought it was fishing that wanderers would do but the story changed if she possessed the Marble of Territory.
Its a tool only pioneers use.
The Marble of Territory was an essential item that would be used to create a village or set up a city.
Those that were known as pioneers would use this item when setting up an area inside an unexplored territory.
It prevented low ranked monsters from approaching and created a land that humans could live on.
The foundation for erecting all cities began by using this marble.
Because she had an item like that, he understood why the fossae didnt easily approach her.
Muyoung stretched his hand.
And he grabbed the Marble of Territory.
How could a goblin!
The woman was shocked.
It wasnt possible for a monster to personally touch the Marble of Territory.
It might have been possible if the monster was a high rank or a top rank but wasnt he a goblin?
Of course, Muyoung wasnt a goblin.
So there was nothing wrong with grabbing the Marble of Territory but for the lady who didnt know that, she couldnt help but misunderstand.
Is there a village near here?
Village there is something similar.
She gulped down her saliva and replied.
It meant there was a gathering of people.
Muyoung grinned before saying.
So you successfully entered the Demon Gods territory.
Wh, who are you? Are you really a goblin?
The woman asked as if she was grasping at straws.
Although the goblin in front of her looked vicious, she didnt feel any hostility from him.
And there was nothing she could do besides believe.
Muyoung briefly looked at the womans eyes.
The womans body curled up.
He slowly stretched his hand and touched the naked womans body.
Her body would flinch at his touch but she was already as weak as she could be so she was unable to resist.
Traces of abuse.
However, Muyoung didnt care about the womans feelings.
And he was quite a distance away from feeling sexual desire.
Only, he was slightly interested in the wounds on her body.
So you escaped from your village.
He said with certainty.
These injuries could only be created from abuse.
Although he didnt know who that person was, he knew that whoever he was, he was very vicious.
So she eventually couldnt take it any longer and escaped and stole the Marble of Territory along with her.
As if he had hit the mark, the woman sat down hugging her knees.
Where is the village?
Ov, over there.
She pointed her finger eastwards.
It was the direction Muyoung was moving towards while avoiding the pack of fossae.
I have to change my direction.
It was actually better.
If he didnt meet the woman, things would have gotten more difficult.
He was already in a situation where he was having difficulties just dealing with the fossae.
He wanted to worry about other problems after getting rid of the tenacious fossae.
Kyaaaah!
The fossae cried from afar.
They had discovered the deaths of their companions.
Muyoung thought over the womans circumstances before coming to a conclusion.
Theres a lot I want to ask.
First, he would take her with him.
Get on.
When he showed her his back, the woman only looked at him with a stiff body.
I wont stop you if you want to die.
N, no. My bo, body is stiff. One second
The woman quickly became serious and threw her body over his back.
Art of Death.
Muyoung reanimated the dead fossae.
Because he was in a rush, the scores were low but it was enough if they could just gain a bit of time.
Block them.
A single command.
The fossae that have turned undead stood in a line.
Muyoung started to move his feet quickly.
He moved for half a day.
Only then could he escape from the fossaes blockade.
Still, it was for at most 4 hours.
They would be followed afterwards but it was important that he gained some time to rest.
After the Fire Tars moved their village, the territories of other monsters became a mess.
Muyoung sat near a well and clicked his tongue.
The reason why the fossae could be this active was because the Fire Tars had moved their village.
As a mess was created by monsters invading other territories while avoiding the Fire Tars, the area of activity of the fossae increased.
Fossae are monsters that have an incredible thirst for revenge. They wont let me go.
Muyoung started to hunt after Ogar left.
And he was briefly fascinated by his quick growth.
His mistake was killing the fossa cubs he came across coincidentally.
Afterwards, he was hunted by the fossae.
This continued for over three days.
I cant keep going south. I have to reduce their numbers somehow.
He didnt have detailed information about this area.
It was suicidal to go down recklessly.
Tap. Tap.
Muyoung tapped his knees with his fingers.
Then he grabbed a branch and drew a line on the ground.
The fossaes blockade, he drew the path and the location of the approaching pack.
What are you drawing?
Muyoung slightly lifted his head.
The naked woman approached after washing herself in the water.
A bold appearance unlike her first impression.
It meant she was certain that Muyoung wouldnt kill her.
A way.
Ahh, so we are being chased by the fossae?
Thats right.
There wasnt really a reason to hide it.
The woman gently smiled.
Then lets combine our strength. I am also being chased.
He already expected that.
The hunting party would have probably been formed by now.
However, Muyoung was cold.
You have to be helpful for us to even combine our strengths.
I know the paths in this area. So help me leave the Demon Gods territory. And we will naturally be able to get rid of the fossae as well.
Impossible.
It didnt matter if she knew the paths, it was impossible to leave the Demon Gods territory.
It would be difficult unless they had multiple lives.
As if she anticipated Muyoungs reply, she gave him the next best plan.
Then ensure my safety. We cant survive on our own anyways.
A change in attitude.
She was completely different from when she was filled with fear.
She tried to reveal her worth as she attempted to negotiate.
We cant survive on our own, huh.
Muyoung was secretly speechless.
He had experienced situations that were multiple times more severe than this.
The current actions of the woman were like holding a candle to the sun.
After carrying her and keeping her alive, it seemed that she believed that it would continue.
She simply regarded herself too highly.
Muyoung got up from his place.
Then he slowly approached the woman and grabbed her neck and lifted her up.
I think youre mistaken. We are not equals.
The woman would die without Muyoung but Muyoung wouldnt die without her.
So how could they be equal?
Clench!
As he strengthened his grip, the womans face became pale.
Cough, cough!
You need to cough up everything you know. So your life can extend by even a second.
The woman must have thought that Muyoung wouldnt kill her but she must have realized by now that that was a delusion.
Although it would become a bit more difficult, it was a situation that he could definitely handle by himself.
It was good to be bold but that was still something they had to show depending on the situation.
If you understand, nod your head.
I, I under please!
Thud.
As soon as he loosened his grip, the woman collapsed on the ground and breathed heavily.
Muyoung unconcernedly asked her questions.
You definitely said there was a village. How many people are there, who are in charge and how is the village run?
Cough! A hun hundred. The one known as Heidegger kidnapped people and created a territory. He treats everyone like slaves.
Her strong will disappeared.
She had become a rabbit stricken with fear.
She had understood her position.
Muyoung meditated on her reply.
A hundred people. It was more than he expected.
What was more, Muyoung knew the name that came out of the womans mouth.
The Outlaw Heidegger?
Tha, thats right. How did you know?
The woman was frightened.
Her expression asked how a goblin could possibly know that name.
Muyoung frowned.
The Outlaw Heidegger.
He never imagined he would hear his name here.
He was definitely evil and was not bound to human standards.
Because of his cruel and wicked personality, there was even a time when he was chased by all the guilds and clans.
The word great villain really suited him.
Anyways, how was he currently within the Demon Gods territory?
I never heard that they found any signs of humans here.
That meant, Heideggers new plan failed.
Or he moved after succeeding.
However, he couldnt understand just why he would set up an area in a place crawling with monsters.
Heidegger became notorious after the Great Calamity started.
There wasnt much information about him before then.
But, Heidegger liked to complete weird trials.
There was a high chance that his actions had something to do with a trial.
Theres something here. Hes not the type of bastard who moves without certainty.
A trial that required him to kidnap more than 100 people and even enter a Demon Gods territory!
His mouth watered.
There were many things still unknown about Heidegger after becoming notorious.
As he had suddenly appeared and disappeared.
There were rumors that he was killed by a Demon God or died in a trial but that was it.
They were all only rumors.
However, Heidegger was a figure that was chased down by all the large groups.
He had that much power.
And the origin of his power could be from this place.
Muyoung organized his thoughts and said.
Do you know what Heidegger is trying to do?
There are words that it has something to do with ancient relics. Besides that, I dont know.
Even if she said relics, there were many types.
Anyways, it was definitely something to covet.
This time, he changed his question.
How many hunters do you think will chase you?
Hunters?
Im talking about Heideggers companions that are going to chase you.
She thought for a moment before opening her mouth.
Thirteen. If they dont have the Marble of Territory, they arent able to declare their territory. Everyone should be coming after me.
She was definitely more obedient.
Although she was still somewhat stricken with fear, it was better than taking the lead and getting dragged down.
Thirteen people and Heidegger. Its enough.
Muyoung nodded his head.
We need to lure them in and make them fight with the fossae.
Sorry? That, thats dangerous.
I did not ask you for your opinion.
It was an announcement.
And this was the optimal method to survival.
The woman who only thought to run trembled her body.
It was easy to say that he would lure them in and make them fight but it was like walking a dangerous tightrope.
However, Muyoung was stubborn.
If you want to live, draw a line. The best location for them to fight each other.
He handed her the branch.
The Outlaw Heidegger.
He was a highly notorious villain among villains.
But Muyoung was the same as him in terms viciousness.
They would know who the real outlaw was once they fought.
