Three Meals of a Reincarnator

Chapter 263: Chapter 263

"Stop right there! You damned rascal!"

"You little bitch…!"

The two soldiers chased the little girl while panting.

The little girl didn't look a day older than 12, but the soldiers were unable to catch her.

The little girl wasn't fast, but the soldiers' legs were trembling.

They looked quite tired.

But the same went for the little girl.

The little girl approached Min Sung's party with a pale face and trembling legs.

She then immediately grabbed onto Min Sung's pants.

"… Please help me," pleaded the little girl with a squeaking voice.

Min Sung stared down at the little girl and then looked back up.

The two soldiers were approaching while grabbing onto their sides.

"We finally caught you, you little bitch…!"

The soldiers glared at her with the look of death in their eyes.

They then looked at Min Sung and his party.

"That bitch deserves to die. Don't waste your time and go on your way," said one of the soldiers.

Min Sung looked at them and then looked down at the girl who was still grabbing onto his pants

At that moment, Ho Sung Lee took a step forward.

"What did she do? Why are you trying to hurt her?"

In response, the soldiers laughed.

"You don't know how evil that little girl is! She's the devil!"

The man with blue eyes screamed, causing his blood vessels to pop out of his neck.

"But what exactly did she do?"

Ho Sung Lee argued back, and the soldier beside him grabbed onto his comrade's shoulder and calmed him down.

He then explained in his stance.

"Do you know what witches are?"

Ho Sung Lee knitted his brows.

"Witch?"

"That's right. That girl is a witch. A witch that brought catastrophe onto us."

Ho Sung Lee looked at the girl before glaring at the soldiers.

"She doesn't seem to be that powerful though. Are you sure?"

The soldier sighed.

"You don't get it, do you? It's a waste of time trying to explain this to you any further."

The soldiers grabbed onto their weapons.

"If you try to stop us, you will die."

Ho Sung Lee looked back at Min Sung.

"What should we do? Should I fight them?"

Min Sung laughed.

"Can you handle it? You're weak."

Ho Sung Lee smiled.

"That's true, but they look even weaker than me."

Ho Sung Lee glared at the soldiers.

They normally would have been angered by this, but this time, their faces looked like they were acknowledging what he had said.

Seeing how they looked nervous, it was possible that they were just Beatrice natives.

"Are you not players?" Ho Sung Lee asked.

The soldiers jolted their eyes wide open.

They had a feeling he was a player accompanying Min Sung, and that he possessed incredible ability.

But ironically, their attitudes didn't change.

"Let me repeat. If you try to stop us, you will die."

Ho Sung Lee smiled at the soldiers.

"How?"

"Because the owner of the territory, Cross, will kill you."

"Aha."

Ho Sung Lee finally understood and nodded before glancing over at Min Sung.

"You don't care, right?"

"Of course not."

"The master I serve has given his permission."

Ho Sung Lee clapped his hands.

"If you don't want to die, you should get lost now."

Ho Sung Lee tried to scare them away, but they didn't step back.

On the contrary, they gripped onto their weapons even harder.

They looked like they were ready to die.

"Sigh… This is frustrating. Why are you being so rash when you're not even players?" Ho Sung Lee asked in frustration.

"It's our duty to bring that witch back with us."

"I don't care. I don't like to see adults blaming a little girl and trying to run away from their responsibilities. I won't kill you."

Ho Sung Lee cracked his knuckles.

At that moment, both soldiers charged toward Ho Sung Lee.

Ho Sung Lee felt tired as he watched them move.

He wanted to test his powers with another player, but they weren't even players.

They were much too weak.

'I'd better control my strength.'

Ho Sung Lee swiftly dodged their attacks and hit them on the back of their necks.

The soldiers' pupils shook, and they plopped down on the ground.

Ho Sung Lee brushed his hands off and looked back at the little girl.

The little girl had her eyes closed while still holding onto Min Sung's pants.

She looked like she had fainted.

Ho Sung Lee approached the little girl. He checked her condition and then looked up at Min Sung.

"What do we do? If we take this little girl into the village, things will get noisy, but that doesn't mean we can abandon her either," Ho Sung Lee said with pitiful eyes.

"We'll take her with us," answered Min Sung.

Ho Sung Lee looked at Min Sung with surprised eyes.

This was unexpected knowing his personality.

In any case, a decision had been made, so Ho Sung Lee carried the little girl in his arms.

There were wounds all over her body, and her body was very light as if she hadn't eaten properly.

Min Sung led the way, and Ho Sung Lee considered giving the little girl a potion but decided to wait until she woke up.

***

The first road they entered in Krok was empty and quiet.

As soon as they began walking for a little while, night fell upon them.

While Min Sung's party walked through the village, some of the people saw Ho Sung Lee carrying the little girl in his arms and expressed their shock.

But they disappeared like homeless kittens.

They looked for accommodation, but all of the houses turned off their lights.

That was a sign that they weren't accepting any outsiders.

Meanwhile, they heard footsteps.

It wasn't just one person.

The footsteps sounded heavy as if it was an entire troop.

Min Sung's party looked toward where the noise was coming from, and that was when they saw disguised soldiers.

The sound of their footsteps sounded very threatening, and they were synchronized perfectly as if they had trained extensively.

"Phew, there's a lot of them," Ho Sung Lee said with a sigh.

There were at leaset 30 of them, and they all had Auras that made them assume they were players.

However…

"I'll try to deal with them so that you won't have to, Sir."

Min Sung looked at Ho Sung Lee and laughed.

"Maybe you're getting a little overexcited at your new strength."

"I guess so, but I really want to get rid of little fries so that you can save your energy," said Ho Sung Lee while staring at the soldiers approaching.

Min Sung crossed his arms and nodded.

"Give it a try."

As soon as Min Sung gave his approval…

Ho Sung Lee looked back at Min Sung with widened eyes.

"Can you let me borrow Bowl? There's a lot of them."

Min Sung woke Bowl up in his pocket and threw him out.

Bowl woke up in mid-air but landed perfectly on his feet like a gymnast.

"Ugh. Why did you have to wake me up, you son of a b*tch?"

"Min Sung gave his approval, so stop complaining."

Ho Sung Lee caught his breath as he watched the players approaching.

After handing over the little girl to Ssol, he walked toward them with confidence.

Bowl followed from behind.

"Huh? Son of a b*tch got stronger while I was asleep," said Bowl while looking up at Ho Sung Lee with his big head.

In response, Ho Sung Lee laughed.

"Did you just notice? I'm not the same Ho Sung Lee anymore."

"You're still a son of a b*tch to me."

"Shut up. They're coming."

Ho Sung Lee stopped in his tracks and stiffened his face while looking at the disguised players.

The players all stopped in front of Ho Sung Lee.

And the man in the middle, who had long silver hair, tied up his hair and walked up to Ho Sung Lee.

The man was very good-looking, and he had quite the presence.

The man with the silver hair looked at the girl that was passed out on the ground and looked back up at Ho Sung Lee.

As soon as the eyes of Ho Sung Lee and the man with the silver hair met, the air around them became sharp.

"If you're protecting that girl out of justice, I suggest you change your mind now."

Ho Sung Lee knitted his brows.

"I heard you think she's a witch, but it sounds to me like it's just a guess with no proof. Is it worth all your soldiers risking their lives?"

The man with the silver hair showed a cold look in his eyes.

His eyes passed to Min Sung and Ssol before returning back to Ho Sung Lee.

And lastly, they even went to Bowl who was standing next to Ho Sung Lee.

The man with the silver hair dropped his head and laughed.

It was out of ridicule.

"Do you think you can do it?"

His eyes were cold as ice.

Ho Sung Lee smiled bitterly in response.

"That's what I want to ask you."

In response, the soldiers behind the man with the silver hair showed cold gazes as well.

Ho Sung Lee felt the glares, but he didn't let them shake him up.

He had two lives thanks to Berserker, and more than anything else, he had the strong Min Sung Kang behind him, so he had nothing to be afraid of.

The man with the silver hair stared at Ho Sung Lee and slowly lifted his hand.

And when he did, the cold air disappeared.

Ho Sung Lee was trembling inside.

He wondered if he was being rash like Min Sung said.

'Maybe I should've let Min Sung handle this.'

He felt some regret, but there was no going back now.

This was his responsibility.

"Then let's do this. We don't want to cause a scene with outsiders who are visiting Krok. How about we settle this with a battle?"

The man with the silver hair smiled and made his proposal.
