A character who plots all sorts of wicked schemes while giving a strange smile, with the other half of their face covered by a fan under a shadow that falls halfway.
When I came face-to-face with Je Geum-hak, who had a slick face that looked like it had jumped straight out of a painting of a beautiful woman, unbearable rage surged within me.
He is the figure who contributed to further accelerating the downfall of the Murim Alliance by succeeding in killing Jegal So-myeong, the leader of the Murim Alliance.
There was no reason for me not to be angry.
Moreover, his characteristically easygoing and laid-back attitude fueled my anger even more.
Wouldn’t the distinctive composure of a man born with everything be enough to offend a man born with nothing but two testicles?
I’m sure that was the case.
“jin
– Soun –”
Seeing them glare while rolling their eyeballs, which were barely stuck together in a grotesque mismatch,
“Hmm…….”
My anger didn’t surge as much as it did the first time I saw it. ‘Perhaps it’s because I’ve become stronger since then.’ Yes, absolutely.
It is a hideous face that makes you recoil just by looking at it, but somehow it is much more comforting to look at than the clean-cut impression from last time.
-Do not do.
I suspect it is because he has a face that matches his dirty schemes.
It could have been quite scary to see his left arm moving awkwardly and his eyeball moving from time to time against his will, but…
My emotions no longer fluctuate because of the rejection.
Rather, it’s good… … .
“Ahem……!”
Even when we parted ways, I thought we would see each other again someday.
Still, to think we would reunite in such a wretched state at a time like this.
I looked at him with warm eyes and asked.
Did you receive the gift I gave you back then?
Jegeumhak’s eyes tremble as if they are about to roll back.
“ruler
– You received it well, right?
– I am your
What for that guy
If you knew whether they did it, you’d be shocked
– I’m shocked
It is.
His hand went toward the life-and-death group.
Ha, does this bastard think I’m a scarecrow?
Swish—sword energy ripples at the tip of the Red Light Sword, and a streak of flash extends to pierce through Jegeumhak’s neck.
He was so off guard that he couldn’t even turn his head.
The moment I fired my sword with all my might to slit his throat before he could use his trick.
Boom!
– The [ice barrier] of courtesy around him
This was created.
Then and now, he easily let his guard down.
Moreover, my internal energy has increased significantly compared to when I was in the Black Alliance.
Just as I was about to pierce the ice in a single stroke and slit his throat.
Smack-.
The Red Light Sword, which was penetrating the ice barrier, stopped just an inch short of Je Geum-hak’s neck.
“what…….”
“stolid
– You bastard!
Jegeumhak gave a twisted smile and flicked his finger.
At that moment.
“damage!!!”
Boom!
With a tremendous explosion, a pillar of fire shot up from inside the Life and Death Hall.
“Aaaargh!”
“Cough!”
“Ugh!”
Painful screams erupt from among those who were already struggling to move due to their injuries.
fillet
He tries to pull out the sword, but it won’t budge, as if it were stuck in a rock.
“I
– Like the past
-to suffer
“-Did you think so-!!”
A scraping voice bursts out, and blood flows from the glaring eyes.
He drew up his energy and infused it into the Red Light Sword.
A brief gap opens up between the Red Light Sword, which is fixed in place on the ice, and the ice.
The moment the Red Light Sword loosened slightly, I drew it with all my might, simultaneously channeling that force to add rotational power.
wedge
He tried to go around once and cut off Jegeumhak’s head, but.
Bang.
Once again, the [ice barrier] of courtesy
It popped out and blocked the sword.
Crackle.
No, it doesn’t stop at just blocking.
Whoosh! It expands the cold air and attempts to engulf the Red Light Sword. ‘The cold has gotten even stronger?’ The [Ice Barrier], which was merely a defensive measure when viewed by the Black Alliance.
That thing, which was nothing more than a consumable, somehow harbored an even more intense coldness and was freezing everything.
Clang! Clang! Chae-chae-chae-chaeng!
Moreover, the intensity increased unbelievably.
It is not at a level where it cannot be cut by a sword, but the layers of ice stacked upon each other provide a level of protection that puts even steel to shame.
It appeared and disappeared so fast that no matter how much I smashed it, the sword never reached its body.
“What the—.” [Ice Barrier]
It is a situation where it is becoming a means of counterattack beyond just a defensive technique.
What on earth happened to him while I wasn’t looking?
Meanwhile, Jegeumhak wiggles his fingers and attacks the academy students.
Five small flames extending from his hand fall among the members of the Life and Death Unit, and immediately burn, consuming the air.
Puff puff puff!
A pillar of fire surging up once again.
Damn it, that bastard… … !
He continues to attack the students without looking at me, as if doing it on purpose.
Some of the students rushed out to attack Jegeumhak, but they were unable to easily approach him because the flames extending from his other hand were too threatening.
I immediately drew up the energy of the Sun.
The fire pouring onto the Red Light Sword gradually began to raise its temperature.
A red light originating from the center of the blade spreads across the entire blade.
Soon, the entire blade of the Red Light Sword turned crimson, as if it had just been taken out of a furnace.
Due to the significantly lowered surrounding temperature caused by Jegeumhak’s ice energy, the air surrounding the sword blade rapidly vaporizes and emits smoke.
The Red Light Sword unleashed leaving a white trail and [Ice Barrier]
The moment of collision.
Crack—a crack appeared in the thick ice barrier, and it soon began to split apart. ‘I can break it…!’ And the moment the Red Light Sword struck once again.
pop!
Rumble.
“Dare to
– yes
“That bastard!”
[Ice barrier] shattering into pieces and rolling on the floor
Pieces of.
As Jegeumhak frowned, the black leather-like stitches crumpled and blood flowed through them.
Both families
-pore
– learned
-what?!”
“Ah, it seemed like I didn’t quite ‘cook’ you last time. I ‘cooked’ you properly so I could grill you when we meet again.”
“main
-porridge
-Yeo-beori
I will!!!”
The excited Jegeumhak started using both hands on me.
Ice spears pour out from one hand, and fireballs from the other.
He gathered the solar energy, unleashed the Twin Heaven Sword Technique, and shot out sword energy.
As three different energies mingled and a storm of energy arose, I unfolded the Taeeul Palman Shinbo and grabbed the guy from behind.
“Actually, it worked so well last time.”
The moment I grabbed the guy by the nape of his neck and was about to activate the Blue Dragon Orb, ‘Huh?’ The guy’s figure vanished without a trace.
-Sowoon-”
The voice was heard from about three jang away to the right.
You and
-‘s battle
Nothing learned from
I thought it would be
-me?”
A large fireball formed above his head was thrown straight at me.
As I instinctively tried to dodge, I suddenly realized there were students from the academy behind me. ‘Damn it.’ Rumble.
Eventually, he attempts to retaliate by firing the Gwangcheonshinjang, but at that moment.
“Big Brother!!!”
Geumpyo’s voice echoed loudly.
Leave the rest to me!
Geumpyo and my squad members are running towards me holding the Geumgangpae.
When did I grow this much?
I guess I can trust you this time.
I unfolded the Taeeulpalmansinbo and took my place to the left of Jegeumhak.
And the moment Je Geum-hak threw the fireball, he simultaneously unleashed the Gwangcheonsinjang.
Puff puff puff puff!
Kwa kwa kwa kwa kwa kwa!
The shock following the explosion surged in from both sides, making it difficult to even stand properly.
I hurriedly turned my head toward the forbidden marker, and fortunately, the damage from the fireball appeared to have subsided.
I acted immediately. Given who the opponent was, I didn’t have the luxury of waiting for the dust to settle.
Unleash the Manhae Cheonji Sword Secret and thrust the Ssangcheon Sword Secret into the place where the energy is felt.
I clearly felt a sensation in my hand.
Bang! Kwa kwa kwa kwa bang!
Just then, a tremendous explosion was heard from the direction of Binghwasa.
In the place where Cheol-sun-jik and the others were dealing with that bizarre woman, explosions like thunderbolts were heard continuously, and the number of people lying on the ground gradually increased.
Crack! Crack! Crack!
That is not all.
Injured people continued to appear even in places fighting the beasts, led by Ilgak and Namhwaseong.
My body twitched, but I couldn’t move right away.
Because distinctly hostile killing intent was still flowing from the thick dust before my eyes.
– A doll pops out through the dust.
Jegeumhak rushes forward, one hand turned fiery red and the other frozen blue.
Bang!
Even though I raised my Red Light Sword to block, my body was pushed backward by the afterglow of the explosion.
The spot struck by the blue hand that struck the gap feels numb, as if frostbitten.
What was most difficult to handle was the immense power. ‘What kind of power is this…!’ For some reason, the outstretched hands and feet seemed to have turned into rocks.
With every hit, a shock is transmitted.
Bang! Bang!
He was originally just a guy who played games at the desk, and in fights, he focused on inflicting pain on his opponents using Yin and Yang energy.
It suddenly transformed into a being with such tremendous power.
Damn it, no way…
“Hey, did you do some push-ups or something?”
“You bastard
– does not know
-That’s it! I
– What to sacrifice
“Whether or not.”
I immediately started using my right forearm for all my defense.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
After blocking about three of his attacks like that, he also frowned, perhaps sensing something was off.
“you
-you…….”
“Ah! Did you recognize this?”
I rolled up my sleeves slightly and curled the corners of my mouth.
“It’s new equipment, and there’s nothing better than this for defense.”
The predatory armor I took from him during the previous battle.
Thanks to you, I’m using it well. Thank you.
“……!”
Jegeumhak’s mismatched eyes opened wide.
“this
-this
– Tear
Even if I kill you, I don’t know
-Jaral
– You bastard!
A massive vibration began to spread around Jegeumhak, strong enough to twist the space.
And I fixed my bayonet faster than ever before.
Kill
-I will throw it away
-Die-!!! Die
-Yeobori
-get-”
Ice chunks and fireballs rising around him.
Jegeumhak, displaying tremendous energy and boasting a commanding presence as if ready to explode everything at any moment.
However, on the contrary, I felt a somewhat strange emotion at the sight of him. ‘Weak.’ It is certainly true that he has gained strength that is incomparable to when we met last time.
However, it was clear that he, too, had lost his power as he gave up all of his true original strengths and sought other powers.
The previous method of deploying a divination formation to set traps and create a situation where one was bound to win was twice as difficult to deal with.
I thought they might have learned a lesson from what happened last time.
As expected, befitting the elite of a group of lunatics, they seemed to have decided on a strategy of revenge through a power struggle.
Baekwoljecheonsamsikjeilsik.
Extremely pleasant.
To think you gave me time knowing I had this option.
The guy’s power itself might have become stronger than last time.
but.
“Idiot.”
He has clearly become dumber than last time.
Quick fluid
-The sword is swung, followed by a burst of piercing sounds.
Sgeogeogeok.
And with the sound of cutting at the very end, a red line appears on Jegeumhak’s chest.
Crack, crack.
The [ice barrier] that was created
The fireballs fall to the ground and explode without control.
*Sob*
– Ugh
– Gyeore
-right
-chaff
– You bastard
-because-.”
Je Geum-hak did not take his eyes off me, even as blood flowed from his eyes, as if he felt so wronged.
“Protestantism
– of
-work
– Right in front of
“Leaving it in…”
The guy, who had been wearing a bewildered expression, gritted his teeth as if he had made a decision.
Heavenly Horse
– Invincible Ten Thousand Horses
-Bok.
Crunch.
Along with the sound of something breaking inside his mouth.
A tremendous storm of energy raged centered around him. [Ice Barrier]
The fireball turned into a gust of wind and began to envelop the creature.
Red smoke billowed from Goku, including his mouth and ears, and his two eyes turned pitch black, making it impossible to find any intelligence left.
yet.
Grrr.
As he growled and reached out his hand as if he were a beast
The red and blue wind swirling around him hits me directly.
As I narrowly dodged the two energies, a jing appeared where I had been standing.
– and the ice froze.
Then, as the red energy touches the ground, an explosion bursts out.
“Young Master Jin!”
My party, including Namgung Seon-hwa, tried to join the front line, and I reached out my hand to stop them.
“Do not come near!”
Energy pours out endlessly from his body.
It is not merely a matter of releasing one’s own energy.
Energy overflows as if a huge dam has burst.
And the intention is gradually becoming clearer.
The fact that he chose mutual destruction instead of giving up on life.
An alarm bell rang in my head. I had never thought that the wind could have color.
Because the color of the wind was never indicated in any literature or story.
The colorful wind I saw for the first time was incomparably beautiful.
The red and blue thing exuded a strange beauty.
As expected, true to the wind, it was free, light, and moved quickly.
however.
The place where that wind touches is never beautiful.
Bang!
With a loud explosion, the fire blazed up.
“It drops the surrounding temperature sharply and creates solid ice on the ground it touches. ‘It’s dangerous…’ Namgung Seon-hwa, who had never been educated about or even imagined such illogical things, felt a spine-chilling fear at this unknown beauty.”
Woooong.
He attempted to strike the wind by unleashing the storm-like technique contained in his hand, but
pop.
The free wind naturally bypassed the energy of the tension and continued to surge in.
The red wind, having smoothly swept over the tension, fell into the center of the life-and-death zone and caused another explosion.
Pow pow!
Unable to stand it any longer, Namgung Seon-hwa drew up the Emperor Divine Art and struck down the blue wind.
Cough, cough.
Although it cannot be compared to my grandfather, sufficient brainpower flashes and strikes the wind.
Flash.
Once again, the wind that tried to escape as gently as water was shattered into pieces right there on the spot.
Jjeong
But that wasn’t the end of it.
Namgung Seon-hwa’s body stiffened as the cold chill rose up her hand.
It does not stop at merely stiffening the body.
The cold air entering through the energy channels blocks the internal energy flowing like water.
“Ugh…….”
In an instant, movement ceases, and pain engulfs the entire body as if the bet is about to backflow.
But then, a red wind rushed in.
Namgung Seon-hwa squeezed her eyes shut without even realizing it.
At that moment, with a loud explosion, the back of Geumpyo was seen.
Are you alright?
Geumpyo, who endured the explosion with the shield he carried every day as if it were his alter ego, was pushed back only slightly and suffered no other injuries.
“Uh, yeah. I’m fine.”
“Anyway… that’s an insane power.”
Namgung Seon-hwa nodded at Geum-pyo’s words.
It is hard to believe that a human being can use two such distinct energies, but the power of each one is unspeakably strong.
Moreover, the movement when attacking a person possessed the subtleties of martial arts in itself.
It makes you wonder if there is any point in having as many people responding to such an attack.
at that time.
Puff puff puff puff!
A series of surprisingly continuous explosions were heard.
I turned my head toward the direction of the sound and saw a person.
Jin So-woon charging at the assailant, cutting through the wind.
Namgung Seon-hwa called out to him in alarm.
“Young Master Jin……!!!”
“Please move the people back!”
That person, surely they aren’t thinking of going inside there, are they?!
Red and blue winds were swirling like a storm around the area, centered on the assailant.
A situation where one cannot even dare to predict how much damage will occur if that storm spreads in all directions.
Even so, there was no way to devise a proper response.
At a martial art I had never seen before.
Because it’s the first time I’ve ever seen such a flower.
Moreover, it is a situation where one does not know what will happen if one throws oneself into that storm.
“J-Jin Gong…….”
However, Jin So-un’s speed did not slow down.
He ran faster than ever.
The golden whip extending from his left hand
He cleared a path while fending off the winds attacking him.
And Jin So-un.
Snail extract
It became a single arrow and shot out relentlessly like lightning piercing through a storm.
Namgung Seon-hwa’s face turned pale at the dizzying sight.
