Not All Heroes From Earth Are Bad-Chapter 241

A lone cabin built on the mountainside of an unnamed mountain.

Inside, a woman stood lost in thought with her arms crossed.

“These bastards. Why are they so quiet lately?”

It had been half a year since leaving the Kingdom of Mariette.

Park Hyun-a had been wandering between hideouts like this one.

Although many were destroyed in fights with Gatren, there were still dozens of such hideouts remaining across the continent.

“Hmm, strange. Whether it’s fireballs falling, lightning pouring down, or typhoons hitting. Something crazy should have happened by now.”

Currently, Park Hyun-a was deep in serious thought.

“Why is it so quiet?”

It’s too peaceful.

For the past few months, there had been signs of those Gatren bastards who had been frantically chasing her.

This was the first week.

It was the longest record of peace.

Considering they usually found her within three days no matter where she hid, this was strange.

Thanks to this she got good rest, but she was starting to get antsy.

“Should I make the first move?”

It wasn’t exactly that she was attacking Gatren out of boredom.

It was more like revenge for her fallen comrades.

They were enemies she would have to face eventually anyway.

Fireworks

It started as a single streak of fire.

Pyuuung! Pung-!

The quickly flying firework exploded upon hitting the fortress’s defensive magic.

Although shaken by the explosion, the defensive magic easily withstood the attack.

However, Park Hyun-a’s magic was just beginning.

As if the first firework was a signal flare, fireworks began flying in from all directions.

Kwagwagwagwagwang-!

The fireworks create massive explosions as they continuously hit the fortress.

The power contained in each individual firework was at the level of Advanced Hero magic.

And there were hundreds of such fireworks.

Though she couldn’t see inside, it was obvious what the fortress must be like right now.

The ground was shaking so much it must have been hard to even stand properly.

“Oh? They’re holding up quite well this time?”

Park Hyun-a’s eyebrows twitched.

Normally by this point, the defensive magic should have broken and the fortress should have been destroyed.

Yet although unstable, the fortress’s defensive magic was holding.

More precisely, it was desperately blocking the fireworks while repeatedly breaking and regenerating.

“Hooh.”

After 3 minutes that felt brief to Park Hyun-a but must have felt like an eternity to the enemy.

Finally, all the fireworks disappeared.

Though parts of it were destroyed, the fortress had somehow endured.

Soon after, probably thinking the magic had ended, an enormous number of troops began pouring out from the fortress.

“They really are coming out like a pack of dogs. But what about this.”

Park Hyun-a grinned while watching the white masses pour out.

“I still have one shot left.”

Arcane Magic

Fireworks

There was still one magnificent firework left to mark the finale.

Tak-!

Park Hyun-a’s finger snapped crisply.

The final firework was launched.

Pyuuuuung-!

A firework dozens of times larger than any of the ones launched so far.

The noise was also tremendous, like a fighter jet passing by.

“Bang.”

Matching Park Hyun-a’s exclamation, the massive firework landed on the fortress.

The defensive magic that was already at its limit broke pathetically.

The firework, still not having lost its power, drove straight into the center of the fortress.

Huuung-!

Enormous flames shoot up hundreds of meters from the ground.

Her hair fluttered in the tremendous wind.

Soon after, a world-shattering noise struck her eardrums.

Kwaaaaang-!

The scorching temperature could be felt even from this distance!

Not just the soldiers inside the fortress, but even the pure white walls surrounding it.

Everything crumbled, unable to withstand the ultra-high temperature.

Power far surpasses Advanced Hero Magic.

This was the true value of arcane magic.

This was mild because the enemy desperately defended – if it had hit without any filtering, not just the fortress but the whole area would have been blown away.

Puuuu-!

“It’s God’s enemy! Kill her!”

“Waaah-!”

Along with horn sounds, holy knights and priests swarm in from all directions.

Even with their base destroyed, the enemies hadn’t lost their spirit.

Indeed, they were worthy of being called the Holy Empire’s elite soldiers.

At this rate, it seemed quite a few troops had been waiting outside the fortress in anticipation of the attack.

With hero-class fighters mixed in here and there, they were clearly well-prepared.

“Time to run away.”

Having had her fun, it was time to leave.

Though dealing with the enemies right there wouldn’t be difficult, the problem was what came after.

While fighting them, reinforcements would keep pouring in endlessly from other places.

Not knowing this at first, she almost died while trying to deal with the remaining troops.

Since then, Park Hyun-a maintained the strategy of causing damage with large-scale magic and immediately withdrawing.

“Spatial movement still doesn’t work.”

She tried using spatial movement magic just in case, but as expected, it wouldn’t activate.

A large-scale barrier had been spread across the area to prevent Park Hyun-a from escaping.

“Time for another running competition, I guess.”

Park Hyun-a lightly stretched her body.

From now on, she would have to work her legs hard to shake off their pursuit.

Since this was already familiar, there was nothing to be flustered about.

Unless they set up an encirclement in advance, they could never catch Park Hyun-a.

Even if a legend came.

‘Combat power really is the best.’

Her current combat power is 650,000.

Generally, legendary-level combat power is between 300,000-400,000.

Compared to even top-tier legends who can’t exceed 500,000 no matter how skilled they are, 650,000 was an overwhelming figure.

‘Well, fights aren’t decided by combat power alone…’

Of course, a legend’s power isn’t determined by combat power alone.

Their countless battle experiences accumulated over time and carefully honed techniques are what could be called the essence of legends.

In fact, when Park Hyun-a fought one-on-one with Kinley Fusel, she couldn’t subdue her.

Even though Park Hyun-a’s combat power is 160,000 higher, it was still an even match.

‘But just running is different.’

However, what Park Hyun-a was trying to do now wasn’t combat.

It was a chase of pursuit and escape.

Just simple running.

No matter how skilled they might be.

In a race that only involves running, rather than combat with its complex factors, the outcome is ultimately decided by strengths.

This was why Park Hyun-a had been able to escape from Gatren until now.

“Then see you next time!”

“You rat-like bitch! You think we’ll let you escape!”

As soon as she spoke, an enraged female hero could be seen running from far away.

Kinley Fusel and her companions Gelling and Asmund.

The legendary trio.

They probably rushed here using a spatial movement gate as soon as they heard about the battle.

While spatial movement couldn’t be used when the barrier was up, gates weren’t affected at all, making this possible.

“Just how incompetent must you be to chase a mere rat for three months.”

Park Hyun-a smirked and stomped the ground.

Kuung!

As the ground split, her body shot forward at terrifying speed.

“Stop right there!”

“Hell no! Would you stop if you were me?”

The legendary trio chasing from behind.

Park Hyun-a charging ahead.

The distance between them gradually widened.

At this rate, it seemed she could shake off the pursuit before long.

But Park Hyun-a knew better.

‘It won’t be that easy.’

The enemy wasn’t stupid.

Recently, Gatren had engaged in countless such pursuits.

Naturally, soldiers would be waiting along expected escape routes to form an encirclement. 𝙧𝙚𝙚𝔀𝒆𝓫𝓷𝙤𝓿𝒆𝙡.𝒄𝙤𝓶

‘I hope this ends within a day this time.’

Park Hyun-a let out a small sigh.

This tedious chase would last at least half a day even at its shortest.

It used to be shorter at first, but as the enemy’s skill increased, the pursuits got longer.

At its longest, she once had to run for two full days straight.

Just thinking about that time still made her legs feel wobbly.

“Here she comes! Catch her!”

“Deploy the barrier!”

“Don’t let her pass at any cost!”

In the distance, priests and holy knights gathered at the edge of a forest came into view.

If left alone, they would create a barrier to trap her.

It would be too late once the barrier is deployed.

She needed to launch magic to stop them before then.

“Don’t dawdle, just get lost!”

Magical power surged through Park Hyun-a’s body.

Just as it took the form of magic, about to be launched.

“Kyaaaa!”

“What is that thing!? Block it!”

“We can’t! Too fast…! Kuhek!”

Suddenly, the enemy formation began collapsing.

Of course, the barrier wasn’t activated.

Park Hyun-a leisurely brushed past over their heads.

‘What? Is someone else here besides me?’

Just before passing them.

Park Hyun-a surveyed the battlefield to see what was happening.

“Eh…!?”

Park Hyun-a, who had been crossing through the air, quickly came to a stop.

Among the Gatren holy knights, a man stood staring blankly at her.

Their surprised gazes met.

After searching for so long, who would have thought they’d meet in a place like this?

“Older sister? What are you doing here?”

“What are you doing here yourself.”

It was a reunion between master and disciple after half a year.
