At the morning, we began to hunt once again. We hunt a different creature this time. A bull with a wing.
This time, we brought Rohan.
"You wait for my co-"
Rohan jumped directly at the bull. Cutting its wing quickly. The bull quickly screamed in pain. It turned its attention to Rohan. As its horn quickly glow.
Blasting a ray of light from it. Rohan quickly dodged it, he slide down. Attacking the bull's leg with his sword. The bull quickly fell to the ground.
Maooooo!
Rohan quickly thrusted his sword, deep right into the bull's neck. Killing it in one strike.
I widened my eyes and dropped my jaw, looking at him. What did i just see? The fuck? Can a human being move like that?
I can't help but be shocked. Something like that shouldn't happen. I also noticed something. He was always smiling, while doing all of that. Crazy bastard.
"What's next?"
Rohan asked, while shaking his sword. Brushing off the blood on his sword. He then looked at Na-Hee, grinning. I looked at Lee Na-Hee beside me. Girl even if we gang up on him, i don't think we can scratch him. All of this was useless from the start.
"Let's move on."
After that we hunted another creatures. A lion, with thorn on every side of its body. Rohan quickly charged toward it. The lion extended its thorn. Pointing it at Rohan. Before firing it toward him.
A surge of thorn flew toward Rohan. He quickly took a step back. Rohan then ran, picking up one of the thorn that were stuck in the ground. Throwing it right at the middle of the lion's head.
The lion staggered as it screamed in pain. Rohan quickly took the opportunity and charged straight. Quickly dispatching the lion's head from it's body, with a clean, swift strike.
After that we continue to hunt more creatures. From small to big creatures. We hunted all of them. No, let me rephrase that. Rohan hunted all of them, alone. I started observing him more closely. His movement were really fluid. There were no mistake at all.
He knew when to dodge, when to attack, and when to block. I thought to myself while observing all of that. Was that really possible for a human? To do all of that.
It doesn't make sense to me. Even Na-Hee beside me were shocked as well. Her eyes widened each time he hunt. Is something like that really possible?
No one really could move like that, I mean who the hell would prepare himself to face this kind of thing? Literally. I was sure that everyone on earth was dragged into this place without knowing anything.
That leave only 1 option. He got a skill that can predict the future. I began to think about that. No wonder, he said 'useful' to Na-Hee like he knew her from the beginning or something. He must've used his ability on Na-Hee or something.
But…
'Is it really foresight?'
A new thought appeared in my mind. A skill that can predict the future, sure you can predict the opponent movement and others. But, there should be some mistake, maybe you can get a scratch or something.
Predicting the future doesn't mean you can perfectly get the best outcome. But Rohan? His body movement were perfect, there were no mistake at all. It looked like he was… experienced. Wait… experienced?
I widened my eyes. No way, i recalled back on my memory.
"I'm quite useful you know?"
"Oh, you knew exactly, what i mean."
No fucking way… I never thought about it before. I looked at Rohan. His perfect movement, the way he said 'useful' specifically to Na-Hee.
'I thought it only exist in webcomic.'
This bastard…
Is a damn, Regressor.
Rohan looked at me back, staring directly at my eyes.
"Is there something in my face?" He asked with a calm tone.
"Don't worries, there's nothing."
"I see." He smiled at me.
I smiled back. Shit! Now it all make sense. I slowly walked to Na-Hee. Bringing my mouth close to her ears.
"I'll tell you something later."
I'm gonna wait till this bastard fell asleep later. I don't know what kind of other skill he had. Definitely a cheat like one. Just like the one he used on me before.
We quickly head back. As its slowly getting dark. We were about to reach the cave before something was blocking our way. A giant green creature. It slowly looked at our way.
It was wearing a yellow crown. With a giant sword in his hand. I scanned the creature.
'A giant goblin?'
"Hey let's kill this-"
I looked at Rohan. His face was sweating. What the fuck? Why is he drenched in sweat? It's just a giant goblin?
The goblin quickly roared. Dang it! My ear! I think it might explode!
Pierce!
Huh? An arrow suddenly pierced through my right hand. What? I quickly looked around. I had just realized, a bunch of goblin suddenly appeared behind the giant goblin.
No way? What the fuck! Where did they come from?!
"Hey lets-"
I looked to the side. As Rohan quickly retreated. While grabbing Na-Hee in his arm. Leaving me there by myself.
"You…. YOU!"
YOU DAMNED REGRESSOR!
Suddenly, i can see my right hand flying, right in front of my faces. And i began to lose balance, as i looked down my leg no longer attached to my foot.
"DAMN IT! DAMN IT!"
WHY IS THIS HAPPENING?! JUST WHAT WENT WRONG?! I looked at Rohan's back. Oh, now i know. Bastard, this all started from YOU!
[Activating 'Emotion Reading' on 'Rohan']
you should at least feel guil-
[Target is expressing 'Relief']
Relief? RELIEF?! I looked at him. My blood boiling inside me. I puffed out blood as i tried to scream.
The goblin slowly swarmed me.
Munch! Munch!
I felt every flesh within me being pulled out. I no longer have the energy to scream within my mouth.
Damn it… is this how i'm gonna die? Swarmed by a bunch of Goblins? No, i can't… die yet… i raised my left arm high.
As i held to that single thought. My vision was slowly painted with a deep dark red colour.
***
'Shit, why is it here?' Rohan looked at the creature in front of him. 'No wonder there were no creature while we were heading back.'
His eyes widened, his mouth twitching.
'Fuck!'
Rohan looked as John's arm got pierced by an arrow.
"Ahjuss-"
He instinctively took a step back and hit Na-Hee right in the nape. He quickly carried her and ran to the back. Leaving John alone. He watched as his body slowly got swarmed by Goblins.
The sound of crunching could be heard even from far away.
'I'm really sorry… Your sacrifice will be remembered. Because of you, we can survive. Rest in peace, Extra.'
***
My vision were dark, I couldn't feel anything. It doesn't even feel like I'm alive right now.
How many minutes has it been? I couldn't tell. I can't see anything, I can't hear anything, I can't sense anything. I feel… nothing.
[You have died.]

[You have achieved an outstanding achievement!]
[You have gained a title!]
