Forced to Sell Myself to the Female Lead After Killing the Male Lead - Chapter 60 - 60

Chapter 60: Chapter 60

At the walls of Galros Fortress,

“Natu! Watch your back!”

After repelling an abyssal demon, Kozov shouted with all his might to his companion!

However,

His words hadn’t reached his comrade’s ears,

“Boom!”

Accompanied by the eruption of a dark green energy,

Under Kozov’s anguished gaze, the soldier who was still engaged in a desperate fight with the abyssal demon was hit by a dark green laser from behind! After letting out a shrill scream, he was painfully corroded into a pool of blood.

‘Na…Natu…’

Gazing at the tragic scene, Kozov bit his lip, wanting to cry but unable to.

His heart seemed to be going numb.

After a fierce and bloody battle, only less than twenty people remained in the Eighth Corps army led by Kozov. The rest had either perished in the previous red laser or died during the fierce battle with the abyssal demons.

However,

Seeing a legion of thousands reduced to a mere eighteen, Kozov, as the army Corps Commander, undoubtedly felt immense sorrow.

He had long considered these soldiers as brothers. How could he not grieve as they fell one by one before him?

But what truly drove Kozov to despair wasn’t the deaths of his brothers.

They sacrificed their lives fighting the abyssal demons for what? To protect the ordinary people behind them? To wait for reinforcements and save the soon-to-be-lost Galros Fortress?

However,

What about now?

After giving their all-in battle, his Eighth Corps had only managed to kill less than 50 abyssal demons. Completely incapable of stopping the tide-like swarm of abyssal demons, they even began to feel like they were overestimating their abilities.

A small group of abyssal demons had defeated the Eighth Corps as if they were nothing.

This wasn’t the world of novels or mythical stories that fooled people.

This was reality! In reality, no matter how strong one’s beliefs are, they could not change the desperate difference in strength…

After the continuous defeat of the Corps, the remaining abyssal demons rushed towards the residential area behind them under the desperate and angry gazes of Kozov and his comrades!

It was evident that they had failed to protect anything.

Hoping to delay the swarm of abyssal demons? To wait for reinforcements?

However,

What had they waited for?

Reinforcements?

No,

What they had waited for was more and more abyssal demons, as well as the awe-inspiring, enormous snow wolf that plunged everyone into endless despair.

The moment Kozov saw the snow wolf, his hope was swallowed by the blizzard that enveloped its body.

Heh,

‘Snow Devourer…’

Looking at the colossal figure, even larger than the city walls, and possessing a domineering presence, Kozov could only let out a bitter laugh. At this moment, he finally understood why the powerful city defense array had suddenly collapsed.

But even if he understood, what could be done?

Could he hope,

Hope for a miracle?

Miracle?!!

Wait!!

In an instant, Kozov’s eyes narrowed sharply, and at that moment, he found the possibility of turning the tide and defeating the Demon King-level creature! As he looked at the massive snow-white wolf towering like a celestial lord, Kozov’s peripheral vision caught a box of purple energy stones on the city wall.

Could it be?! Magic stones?!

The magic stones that stored compressed magical power? And in a box?

They must have been used to maintain the magical array before, right?! Unexpectedly, there were still some left! If he could detonate so many magic stones at once, close to the Snow Devourer, the power generated might severely injure the beast!

And now?!

The Snow Devourer’s attention seemed to be focused on the area behind the fortress, completely ignoring them?!

‘Heh heh,’

At that thought, the flame of hope reignited in Kozov’s eyes!

This,

Was an incredible opportunity! A once-in-a-lifetime chance!

In the next moment,

With decisive action, Kozov unleashed all the battle energy from his body, demonstrating the full speed of a sixth-tier expert! Suddenly, he transformed into a bolt of blue lightning, dodging the attacks of several abyssal demons!

Under the astonished gazes of the soldiers, he rushed to the city wall with lightning-fast speed, hoisting the box containing the highly potent magic stones!

Upon seeing the box of magic stones, the soldiers, after a moment of bewilderment, realized the intent of their Corps Commander.

A glimmer of hope appeared in the eyes of the desperate soldiers,

If they could heavily injure the Demon King-level creature?! Then, then their sacrifices might be worth it!

Thinking of this,

In order not to let other abyssal demons interfere with their Commander’s actions, the remaining eighteen soldiers let out a passionate battle cry, brandishing their weapons and charging at the abyssal demons in front of them!

This was no doubt a suicidal move, but the soldiers hoped to distract the demons, preventing them from hindering their Commander’s mission!

In an instant,

Countless spells, sword techniques, and martial skills rained down furiously upon the swarm of abyssal demons!

On the other side,

After noticing his brothers’ actions, Kozov couldn’t help but shed a tear of gratitude! Then, his eyes became even more resolute, and he embraced the box of magic stones with the determination to die, leaping toward the wolf’s head, turning into a blue streak of light!

“Beast! Don’t underestimate humanity!”

Kozov roared out in fury!

The battle energy within his body continued to gather towards his heart at that moment, compressing wildly! As the power converged, Kozov’s life force rapidly declined! It was clear that he intended to detonate the magic stones’ internal power through self-destruction, amplifying the explosion’s force!

In order to severely injure the legendary Demon King-level abyssal demon,

Kozov gave it everything he had!

In the next instant,

The blue light, carrying all the hope of the Eighth Corps, rushed towards the Snow Devourer’s head,

“Boom~~!!!!!!!”

Under the expectant gazes of the soldiers of the Eighth Corps! Accompanied by a deafening explosion, a scorching wave of heat burst forth from Kozov’s body, triggering a chain reaction that detonated the entire box of magic stones! A dazzling, brilliant pink flame suddenly blossomed!

The Snow Devourer’s head was directly engulfed within it!

A violent shockwave and overwhelming magical power erupted, and the ferocious energy ripples spread out indiscriminately, flinging hundreds of abyssal demons surrounding the Snow Devourer! The surging aftermath even shook the soldiers of the Eighth Corps, making it hard for them to stand steady!

Feeling the terrifying aura scattering and witnessing the earth-shattering, brilliant flame, the soldiers couldn’t help but feel elated.

‘Did it… did it succeed?!’

Were the sacrifices of the Commander and their brothers worth it?

However,

Reality can sometimes be incredibly cruel.

These soldiers, who had never encountered a Demon King-level being, as well as Kozov himself, had underestimated the terror of such a creature. Indeed, courage and faith could boost a person’s power from a hundred to a hundred and thirty, or even a hundred and fifty.

But even someone with a power level of one hundred and fifty could never defeat a being with a power level of ten of thousand. It was still like a mayfly shaking a tree.

Faced with the absolute gap in strength, all that awaited them was a brutal reality.

As the flames dispersed,

The glimmer of hope that had just surfaced in the soldiers’ hearts was immediately strangled by the merciless truth.

They saw,

As the flames dissipated, not to mention severely injuring the Snow Devourer, the snowy-white wolf remained unscathed…

“What?! How could this be possible?!”

Seeing this scene before them, the remaining soldiers of the Eighth Corps revealed deep despair, as if being dragged into an endless swamp by countless vines. The last bit of their fighting spirit completely vanished.

In the next moment, This chapter’s initial release occurred on the N0v3l-B1n site.

Without any suspense, the remaining eighteen soldiers were torn to pieces by the oncoming swarm of abyssal demons. At this point, all members of the Eighth Corps at Galros Fortress had perished in battle.

As for the snow-white wolf,

After taking a direct hit from Kozov’s close-range self-destruction, it simply shook its head in annoyance and continued to look towards the fortress.

‘Mother, where are you, wuuu~~’
