Episode 227
“I have to get out.”
As soon as the meeting started, Jinhyeok said it and it was his opinion.
In fact, he suggested that they come up with a strategy, but from the moment he saw Hong Chi-heon and his gang, Jin-hyuk had no intention of just quietly protesting.
“Brother, it would be too dangerous to start an all-out war with them… … .”
“It’s dangerous and something else.”
“… … Still, aren’t they also citizens of Yuldo Kingdom?”
But Gildong didn’t seem to think otherwise.
Royal soldiers who became magicians, including Hong Chi-heon.
His treatment of them as citizens rather than enemies was that of a true king.
“That’s nonsense. They are trying to kill you, but are you trying to embrace them? Tsk, don’t make me wonder if my way of looking at people is wrong, Gildong.”
“… … .”
Jinhyuk had no intention of accepting that opinion.
It was absurd to think that someone who had already betrayed me once was a colleague or on the same side, but the biggest reason was that I didn’t think they would laugh and turn around again just because they did that.
Above all, Jinhyeok was planning to catch the person behind them.
‘If you want to catch a demon, you have to hit its tail first. That way, your body will at least show a reaction.’
Demon.
In order to face a being similar to Haniel, who put him in danger, he had to cross the gateway called Hong Chi-heon.
Therefore, Jinhyuk ignored Gildong’s opinion.
“You are right.”
“Elder!”
“Gil-dong, no. King, they have already decided to walk the devil’s path. “You know very well that once a person has been touched by the devil, he or she cannot return.”
“… … .”
Also, the fact that there were other people who agreed with Jinhyuk’s opinion was a bad thing for Gildong, but a good thing for Jinhyuk.
Above all, Gildong, who had already experienced the magician named Hong Ik-hyeon once, knew that the magician could not return to a immortal and a magician to a guru.
“… … “Then I have no family anymore.”
“… … Still, you have to make a decision. “You are no longer Hong Chi-hyeon, but Hong Gil-dong.”
“… … .”
Hong Ik-Hyeon.
His grandfather died.
Now, in a situation where he had to kill his own brothers and sisters, Hong Gil-dong clenched his fists and didn’t know what to do, but he had to nod at Hong Moon-rak’s words.
“… … “I command you in the name of ‘Gil-dong’ to punish the traitor who brought the sword to Yuldo-guk.”
“I will follow.”
“I will follow.”
It was a deep voice announcing the start of a full-scale war. * * *
Jumble-jump-
After a short but intense meeting, Jinhyeok climbed up the wall protecting the royal palace.
This is the same place I climbed when I first confronted Hong Chi-heon, and the same place I last saw Hye-rin.
“… … Woohee?”
There was a passenger who came there first.
“Ah, Mr. Jinhyuk. “I guess the meeting is over.”
“As you can see.”
She, who did not attend the meeting, looked at Jinhyeok with a slightly surprised face and realized that the meeting was over.
Jinhyeok pointed to the bottom of the castle wall and explained.
Woohee smiled bitterly at the sight of Taoists and Taoists busily moving weapons.
“… … It’s noisy. Looks like they decided to fight in the end. “It’s not like Gil-dong, though.”
“It’s not that it’s not like Gil-dong, it’s that it’s just that it’s not like Chi-hyeon.”
“… … That would be correct. Gildong is the king of this country.”
Hong Chi-hyun and Hong Gil-dong are the same but different.
The former is a light-hearted being who doesn’t know about war and likes to have fun, but the latter is something that shouldn’t be like that.
That’s why Woohee canceled what he said was not like Gildong.
“Why did Hyerin make that choice?”
“… … “The important thing is to worry about the future, not why you made that choice.”
The war was like a die that had already been cast, and Hye-rin’s decision to join the enemy’s side was also irreversible.
But Woohee didn’t stop.
“Am I the problem…? … .”
“… … “I would like to say no, but Hye-rin’s betrayal probably involves not only you but the entire Yuldo Kingdom.”
“… … “I guess it was something that would eventually come true one way or another.”
Of course, that too for a while.
After realizing that Hye-rin’s betrayal involved not only him but the entire Yuldo Kingdom, he no longer self-criticized Hye-rin’s defection.
It would have happened anyway.
“Even if I wasn’t engaged to Gildong-”
“It might have been a little delayed. “If we had gotten married at all, we might have become even more distant.”
“You mean it was going to explode at some point.”
“And I don’t think they would have stopped rebelling just because Hye-rin wasn’t there.”
“That’s true too.”
Hyerin participates in the rebellion, but is not a main force.
Even though they were not wearing magic flags, it was clear at first glance that Hong Chi-heon and his younger brothers were the main forces.

“Go back. “A war will break out soon, so it would be better to get some rest in the meantime.”
“… … I’ll ask for Hyerin. “Please don’t kill her.”
“… … “I’ll try.”
After saying their last words, the two slowly walked down the castle wall.
Even the moment I went down the castle wall, I could see the mages camped at a distance from the castle wall. * * *
Clap-
Numerous Taoists were lined up in front of Jinhyeok, each holding their weapons.
Among them were not only the elders, but also Gildong and Woohee.
With faces full of tension, they recognized Jinhyeok as the captain.
Although he was an outsider, Jinhyuk was recognized by the people of Yuldo Country for nearly half a year, and this was true not only for his personality but also for his abilities.
War is a confrontation between strength and strength, between armies and armies.
Therefore, Jinhyeok’s powerful strength was not enough for him to be appointed as a captain.
“I believe everyone is prepared. “Promoting me as captain is probably also part of that determination.”
“… … .”
Jinhyeok calmly opened his mouth while facing hundreds of pairs of eyes only looking at him.
It would be difficult to call Jinhyuk’s current condition perfect.
This was because there were no soul bottles or corpses, so there were great restrictions on using one’s powers as a spirit master and necromancer.
Nevertheless, Jinhyuk remained calm.
“They betrayed the country they had worked for their entire lives, revolted to usurp the throne that had already been established, and fell into the hands of demons and became demons. “They are no longer Taoists like you, much less Taoists, and by no means immortals.”
“… … .”
“I am not perfect. But I have no doubt that my strength is not enough to lead this war to victory. So trust me and follow me. Then I will bring you peace.”
All Masters.
Although it is a sub-job, its potential is sufficient to surpass that of the main job, Spirit Master, and it is safe to say that all the abilities that exist under the name of All Master are Jinhyuk itself.
Jinhyuk-
thud-
Take your feet off.
“The war may not end in a day or two.”
Squeak-
He unlatched the locked castle gate.
“But I have no doubt that today’s first step will be the first step toward victory in the war.
Coo coo coo coo coo-
Finally, the tightly closed gate was opened.
“One won (one won).”
At the same time, the different energies that filled Jinhyeok’s whole body coalesced into one.
Unity power.
Stats exceeding hundreds are combined into one stat.
And the transformed stats were slightly different from last time.
[One won power: 1,000+]
“Hmm, I guess it means you’ve grown a little.”
Plus 1 at most.
I only grew from 999 to 1000, but now I know how big a difference it is to make a difference as small as a piece of paper.
“It’s like I’m a god.”
A feeling of omnipotence, as if you can do anything.
It filled my whole body.
If we take a few steps further and reach a number like 1,001 or 1,004, how much more powerful will we be able to show?
No, what if the first digit is different, like 2,000 or 3,000?
“It’s still a long way off.”
Now that I had only broken one wall, it was really funny to think about a future where I would break thousands of walls.
“Hyung?”
“Jinhyuk?”
“Ah, it’s done. Let’s really start.”
The castle walls had already opened, and I, who looked like I was going to run out at any moment, was standing quietly in front of the open gate, muttering to myself, while Gil-dong and Woo-hee looked at me with worried faces.
However, I woke up from my thoughts by shaking my hand, took a stance, and touched the power.
Taoist power (道力).
In the world of Taoists, there is no force more effective than this in punishing those who have abandoned being Taoists.
Rumbling-
It brings to mind the feeling of omnipotence, and the heavens and earth shake with such enormous power that it can materialize it.
The sky is filled with dark clouds, and the ground shakes as if an earthquake has occurred.
“What-”
“The gates are open! “Be prepared!”
The bewildered voices of those who abandoned the Tao and walked the path of the Demonic Way resonate in my ears.
However, I was faster at using the sword than their voices.
Knock knock knock-
The enormous power of Tao is compressed and compressed again.
Eventually, the power is reborn with new energy.
Seongi (仙氣).
Jinhyeok muttered quietly as he felt his body being filled with the power reborn from the energy of the immortals.
“Flash of lightning.”
Quack!
Nature changes in response to the enormous power (seongi), and a ray of lightning falls from the dark clouds created by the changed nature and falls on Jinhyeok’s head.
It’s as if Hong Chi-heon was struck by lightning by Hong Moon-rak’s ‘Gal’.
But there was a difference between then and now.
If Hong Chi-heon was ‘attacked’, Jin-hyuk was ‘strengthened’.
Pajik- Pajik-
The thunderbolt that fell from the sky enveloped Jinhyeok’s whole body.
Additionally-
Wheeoooo-
The rough wind also gave Jinhyuk strength.
Lightning and wind.
These moments, which are always mentioned when talking about speed, simultaneously added strength to Jinhyuk.
Paang!
Jinhyeok’s new brother ran forward so quickly that it was invisible to the eye.
When only the traces of lightning and wind prove that Jinhyuk was there just a moment ago.
“… … Everyone, chase after Mr. Hyung and take back Yuldo Country!”
“Waaaa!”
“Eolsu!”
Jinhyuk rushed out like an assault leader, and the wizards quickly rushed towards the wizards, chasing after the remains of the lightning and wind where he had moved.
It was the moment when the war that would decide the present and future of Yuldo-guk began.
With the help of an outsider named Jinhyeok.
