Elopement From Nightmare(1)

The moment I woke up in the conference room which was already too familiar for me, I rushed out without saying anything

and knocked on the door of Shar's room.

「Is something the matter, Gil? Why are you so pale?」

When Shar embraced me, she noticed my pale face.

「Shar, sorry!」

I held Shar in one arm as I spoke and ran as fast as I could.

I've had enough of this. The pain, the fear, I'm already tired of everything but, I'm still persisting since I believe that I could

regain our peaceful live. Alas, I've had reach my limit. I couldn't arrive in that place no matter what I do. I was destined to fail.

Since that was the case, I only had one option left. I had to take Shar to get out of this hell-like place. Tall cliff? It was nothing

before the current me.

（Yes! I should've did this from the very beginning!）

I kept running while carrying Shar in one arm and finally arrived in front of the said cliff. Now I just need to imitate monster

with ability to fly to get out of this hell.

The moment I imitated garuta tribe and about to jump from the cliff――

「GUH!」

Something like a ball hit me from the sides, sending me back to the wasteland.

「Hee~, a jackpo~t! Pepper, you still remember our previous agreement right? They're mine.」

A dark-skinned woman with eyepatch caught Shar by her collar and lift her up as she shouted in delight.

「Hah! I should never agree with her!」

The petit, hunchback man, Pepper spat on the ground as he spoke.

「Release Shar!」

I imitated the strongest existence as I bellowed in rage, unsheathing flame from its' sheat and rushed straight toward that

eye-patch woman.

「WHAT THE!?」

The eye-patch woman raised a disbelieving voice as I sliced off her right arm from its root, which was then followed by a

palm strike with my left hand on her chin, and finished the combo with a roundhouse kick. And just when I was about to catch

Shar who fell from the woman's hand,

『Don't you dare mess with us, the Wicked!』

A powerful shock ran through my abdomen along with that enraged roar. My body rolled on the wasteland and then crashed

on the rocky mountain. When I tried to get up from the mountain of rubble, Pepper was already far away, holding Shar under

his arm.

Pepper's body had expanded a few times in size, though there were bat-like wings on his back, there was something like a

horn growing from his head. it was as if Pepper had transformed into a completely different creature.

『Oi Vinegar, wake up!』

Hearing Pepper's shout, the eye-patch woman who got beaten by me, Vinegar stood on her feet again,

『DIEDIEDIEDIEDIEDIEDIEDIEDIEDIEDIEDIEDIEDIEDIEDIEDIEDIEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!』

Vinegar took off her eyepatch while raising an enraged roar. Suddenly, the cross-section of her severed right arm swelled up,

and then formed a new arm. At the same time, another eye appeared on her forehead, a strange mask formed in front of her

forehead, then a vortex of crimson-coloured fighting spirit rose up to the sky from her entire body.

No doubt about it, her strength was on a whole other level compared to before. But, it was trivial compared to the current me.

「Return Shar to me!」

I rushed at Pepper as I shouted, grasping strongly on the hilt of flame
