C20 He won't forgive you

"You jerk, Maxilin." He rushed his horse up to me and yelled, "I will shred your bones." I pushed back the horse's head as I struck with the pommel. The hot breath of the horse struck my face. "You shouldn't have made this mistake," I calmly said, as I lifted my gaze. "I hope you don't beg for mercy after this."

As I said, I used a reversed grip on the ricasso to give back the force. As a result of the force, Nuckelavee took a step back. I took advantage of the opportunity. I took the holy water and loosened the cap off the bottle. Before he could understand what I was doing, I hurled the bottle at the horse. Then I shattered the bottle.

"neigh," "neigh," "neigh..."

That began to groan and then knelt. The creature screamed, "Maxilin!" I gripped my sword and dashed over to him. I cut the horse's head with a slash.

"Ahhhhhh"...

Nuckelavee screamed and fell to the ground. He was attempting to stand on his hands alone. I approached him gently and dumped the last of the bottle on him. He began to scream uncontrollably. His cries sailed out into the bleak water. He was wailing in agony.

"You shouldn't have attacked me so fast that time," I remarked. We'd definitely fight if you approached mine gently and quietly. But unfortunately! You monster, you just chose fury above calm. "Does your rage urge you to beat me?" I stated this as I dropped my sword in the water. He was gasping for air. His body parts began to burn. While wheezing, he muttered, "You're doing it wrong, Maxi." I disregarded him and drenched my sword completely.

"Am I?" I said, looking at him. He burst out laughing and shouted, "Do you think you can win this battle by cutting off my head?"

"Never," he answered with a creepy laugh. I was staring at his muscular, boneless face. "You are unable to save the town." You will not be able to save that family. "You can't save that girl," Nuckelavee replied, giving me a creepy smile.

"What did you say?" I said, my eyes narrowing as I listened.

He smiled as he heard me and then asked, "Do you think I'll tell?" You just cannot save anyone, even yourself. You will eventually become like us. You're going to be one of us. ""Lucifer will not forgive you," he said before bursting out laughing. I put my sword down and stared at him for a while. He said to Maxilin, "You will never find a way out of here." Then I took a deep breath and raised my sword.

"Then let me send you to hell first, then wait for your Lucifer there, and don't worry about them, I'll save them," I replied as I cut his head from his body.

Because of his blood, the sand became red in an instant. That body gradually ceased to move. For a long time, I stared at him. Then words came to me out of nowhere. What exactly did he say? can't save the girl? however, to whom?

I averted my eyes and returned my gaze to the water. I slew the devil's sea. I'll return home as quickly as possible now. I haven't received any messages from Uncle. Is everything all right over there? I whistled as I sighed. My horse appeared out of nowhere when he heard me whistling. I mounted the horse and returned my gaze to his body.

I'll be ready for your master.

I took the reins and moved carefully from there. My gaze was drawn to the hill as I rode the horse. I could definitely see someone standing there staring at this site. I grabbed the reins to bring my horse to a halt.

‘whinny’…

As I stroked him carefully, my horse stopped 'whinnying.' I raised my eyes to the crest of the hill. That person's cloak was swaying in the wind. He gently walked back from there after I stared at him for a few moments.

Maxilin’s aside.

I am sure that this is the person that helped me last night. Who is he, exactly? Why isn't he approaching me? I lowered my eyes and tugged the reins once more to show my horse the way.
