The Overlord of Blood and Iron

Chapter 157






F-Father?


Even though she wasn\'t fully conscious, Arshelly could hear the voice of her beloved father .


“F-Father…?”


Arshelly spoke to Kang Chul-In with a weak voice .


“Yes, daughter . ”


Kang Chul-In answered .


“I’m here . Your dad is here . So…”


Kang Chul-In hopped off the Altaica .


“Don’t worry . ”


Saying this, Kang Chul-In’s eyes were full of fatherly love .


“D-Don’t tell me…”


When he saw this, Sheville Polansky---


“A-ah . . . ah!!!"


Seemed liked he was about to fall over on the spot from shock .


“T-That little b*tch . . . w-was the daughter of… O-Overlord Kang Chul-In…?!”


This wasn\'t even close to just a small mistake, so it was as if Sheville had stepped into a field of explosive mines .


The daughter of Overlord Kang Chul-In?


He had kidnapped the daughter of the man that even Baruk Al-Yusuf had to kneel to?


And he was planning on killing her before turning her into his mannequin?


T-This can’t be… No… No… NOOOO!!!


Sheville wanted to bite his tongue and die .


“This… won’t happen again . ”


Without taking so much as a glance at Sheville, Kang Chul-In promised .


“I… believe you, father…”


Arshelly spoke, her voice trembling .


Her voice resembled that of a dying person\'s .


When he heard it, Kang Chul-In’s heart felt like it was being torn apart .



“I-I love you, father…”


“Me too . ”


“Dad… Please save the ones trapped there too…”


Arshelly pointed at the other children stuck inside the glass containers .


“Don’t worry . ”


Kang Chul-In answered .


The Bittermoon territory would soon be taken over by Baruk Al-Yusuf anyway, and he wouldn’t kill those children since he followed the Islamic law .


“Yes, father . I can’t anymore . . . my eyes…”


“It’s okay, you can go ahead and close them . ”


Grabbing Arshelly, Kang Chul-In patted her on the back .


“Don’t worry . What is there to worry about when dad is here?”


“You\'re right…”


“When you wake up, we’ll both be in Laputa . ”


“Yes, father… I love…”


While Arshelly was speaking,


Droop .


Her eyelids shut closed, and her head drooped down .


With Kang Chul-In here, Arshelly was finally able to fall asleep in peace .


At last, Kang Chul-In didn’t feel the same emptiness he had felt before .


Was family such an important thing…?


Kang Chul-In realized just how important Arshelly was to him now .


And,


Son! Come and visit home more often!


His mother\'s, Park Sun-Ja’s, voice echoed in his head .


He couldn’t understand why he had ignored his mother in his past life, and instead only focused on waging war .


You, and mother .


Kang Chul-In vowed .


I won’t let any harm come to you .


-------


While Kang Chul-In was speaking to Arshelly, Sheville Polansky started to tiptoe towards the exit .


Of course, the problem was that Arshelly and Kang Chul-In weren’t the only ones in the room .


-Krrrr!


The Altaica growled towards him, as if warning him .


“ . . . !”


Afraid of the giant beast, Sheville stopped moving .


-Grrrr!


The Altaica showed off its fangs, which were still dripping with flesh blood . It also started to circle around him, intensifying his fright .


This damned beast!


Even though Sheville\'s eyes reddened from rage, there was nothing he could do .


-Hmph!


The Altaica snorted, ignoring him .


There was no way that the Sheville\'s ability would work against the Altaica, since it didn’t even know the ‘M’ in \'magic\' .


“Where do you think you\'re going?”


From behind him, Sheville heard the voice of the grim reaper .


“H-Hiik!”


“You have to pay the price now . ”


“I-I’m sorry…! Please have mercy…”


Sheville didn’t dare to turn around . He was too afraid to look at Kang Chul-In’s face .


Ah, I’m so screwed .


There was no way he could win against Kang Chul-In since he didn’t use magic . The only choice was to…


Plop .


Sheville turned his body around and kneeled directly in front of Kang Chul-In .


Bang!


He then started to smash his own forehead against the ground to apologize .


“I-I’m sorry!”


It was a quick apology, given in order to live .


“I won’t . . . won’t ever do this again! Also, I didn’t know… I really didn’t know that she was the daughter of the Overlord Kang Chul-In! I wouldn’t have kidnapped her if I knew! Please believe me…!”


Half of what he said was true, and half was a lie .


When he said he wouldn’t do this again he was just lying, in order to avoid death . Of course, the fact that he wouldn’t have dared to touch Arshelly was true .


“P-Please…!”


“Please?”


“I-If you let me… Kuhuk!”


Sheville choked due Kang Chul-In’s hand grabbing his throat .


“You should already know---”


“W-What do you mean…?”


“That I won’t kill you easily . ”


“P-Please…!”


“You…”


While Kang Chul-In was speaking, a white light flashed,


“You bastard!!”


And Sheville started to charge towards Kang Chul-In .


It was a sneak attack .


He had thrown a single-use item that should have blocked Kang Chul-In’s sight, before charging towards him .


However,


Tuk!


Kang Chul-In grabbed onto Polansky’s right arm, which held a dagger .


“Is this it?”


Kang Chul-In laughed .


“Since I don\'t have much time, let’s begin . ”


“ . . . !?”


“I will show you a whole new world of pain . ”


“Agghhhhh!!!”


A terrifying scream filled the secret chamber of the Bittermoon territory .


----------


Whilst Kang Chul-In was torturing Sheville Polansky, the Anatolian army was outside conquering the castle walls of the Bittermoon territory .


“Agh!”


“These bastards!”


Unlike before, the soldiers of the Bittermoon territory fell like leaves . The morale they had shown an hour ago was long gone .


“Great Khalifa . ”


Lee Gong-Myung spoke .


“Can you lend this one 2000 troops?”


“2000?”


“Yes, Great Khalifa . ”


“What’s the reason?”


“In order to block their escape route . ”


“Hm… Very well . ”


“Thank you, great Khalifa . ”


Lee Gong-Myung bowed .


“Oh, and when should I send out my great warriors?”


“I think now is the right time . ”


“Is that so?”


“Yes, great Khalifa . The Bittermoon territory is a mess right now . Since Kang Chul-In can run during the chaos, we should send out your great warriors and have them hunt Kang Chul-In down . ”


“Alright . ”


Baruk Al-Yusuf nodded .


“Kang Chul-In…!”


Baruk Al-Yusuf was confident .


50 elite guards of Anatolia, 50 assassins, and 100 soldiers . With this 200 man elite squad, he was confident in being able to catch Kang Chul-In .


“Just you wait! I will capture you alive, and rip you to shreds!”


Baruk Al-Yusuf spoke, his eyes glittering with madness .
