I Am a Legend (3)
The axe smashed the Lich’s skull. His body tilted back slightly, and multiple arrows hit his body.
“Gaso!”
The power of the arrows was truly amazing. Rough tools made of stones and twigs were transformed into weapons with destructive power. The skeleton crumbled, and bone fragments shot away.
“Haaahhhhhhhhh!”
A mighty shout, as if from a single throat, erupted behind me. The 200-300 barbarians were truly a sight to behold. They even made the undead flee.
Tuwoong!
I made a huge leap. My body, which was gradually cooling down, flew through the air, and where I landed, I killed dozens of skeletons with a single blow from my fist.
“Hah, hah!”
The Lich pulled the axe from his skull, and carelessly threw it on the floor. I ran towards it with a speed that surprised even me. In the blink of an eye, I had grabbed the axe, and was already swinging it at my enemy. The undead’s body collapsed with a single swing.
“The chieftain has done it again!”
“With his axe, we are invincible!”
They rushed towards me on their horses. With a bloody smile, I picked Han Yeon-soo up from the floor.
“Huh?”
She blushed slightly at my touch. Han Yeon-soo was light as a feather.
“How did you suddenly get so strong…?”
‘Now for the undead.’
With wide sweeps of my axe, I started clearing the battlefield of any leftover undead. Killing them was no problem at all.
“Keep shooting, fall back slightly.”
The barbarian warriors who followed my every command were very reassuring. They followed my complicated commands perfectly.
“Mister, I’m here. Sorry, I am a little…What is this?”
With Zhang Wei and Sung Hyun-woo here, the tides of battle had truly turned in our favor.
“What a strange sight! You’ll have to explain this to me later!”
Zhang Wei, with a surprised expression on his face, reached his hands out towards the sky. The red was pushed back by a clear blue sky. Finally, we didn’t have to fight in the darkness anymore.
The Messiah had arrived.
The third wave was very powerful, no question about it.
But now we had a chance.

Finally, the Association and other hunters had arrived. The battle had already been swung in our favor, but it was still a tough fight. With the help of Zhang Wei, no one died in the battle against the Lich, with his powerful black magic, and his armies.
To everyone’s surprise, the fiercest warrior was Jeong Si-woo, the hunter cadet.
“That’s quite a surprise…”
The man muttered as he looked up at the black sky. He had accidentally stumbled on the Livestream of the battle while browsing on a news site.
“It’s a real mess here. I don’t know if I can continue broadcasting…But I’m a pro, I’ll keep my head down. Wow, how many viewers…?”
“Holy shit, look at the chat. You barely have time to read anything.”
“Those hunters aren’t what they used to be.”
“Nooo, I missed an awesome fight scene because of you.”
“Shut up and keep watching.”
BJ Hunter was mostly famous for broadcasting hunts and posting highlights on YouTube. He was quite famous.
“Ugh. All they’ve taken all the 3rd-class hunters, but I’m not allowed to fight at the front lines. Doesn’t make any sense.”
In the distance, Fire, Ice, and Lightning sprung up in random spots. The more experienced hunters show off the powers.
Not him.
Chat was still squabbling like little children.
What did they want from him? This was more exciting to watch than any movie.
Suddenly the sky turned black. People fell in the streets.
The news had said that the Great Rift caused that. Millions of people were watching the live broadcasts.
BJ Hunter turned his gaze to the side.
“What is that?”
There were hundreds of barbarians firing arrows, with an axe-wielding man at their front. He seemed very young, but his muscles, and the ease with which he felled dozens of skeletons with his axe, made him look like a hero straight out of a fantasy book.
“Warriors, rush them!”
“Cya!”
That one man attracted the most attention. He rode on an elegant black horse, swinging his axe left and right, killing his enemies. It was quite a sight.
“What’s his name?” the man asked his chat.
‘Light-Siwoo.’
‘God-Siwoo.’
‘King-Siwoo.’
‘Jeong Si-woo,’ his name would be remembered after this battle.

“This is the first time I’ve ever seen a Great Rift like this!”
I heard another hunter say. I agreed. Where was that crazy monster that had the Rift’s core in its chest? It moved around so fast.
