Chapter 154: Younger Demon, Dowon (3)
Cheonma.
He emerged as a calamity, driving the currents of the occasions.
As soon as he started to maneuver, it was the tip. His extraordinary momentum, virtually dragon-like, left few who might stand towards him.
Even those that couldn’t afford to underestimate him shaped alliances, however the final result remained unchanged.
Church buildings, guilds, associations, governments of assorted nations, and large companies—all have been his opponents, but none might overpower him.
Because of this for over 100 years, Cheonma alone had handled all of them.
If there was financial retaliation, he would carry down companies. When pressured, he single-handedly destroyed guilds.
Residing as if such a lifestyle was pure, he uprooted legal guidelines and the privileged class, scoffing at social contracts.
Because of him, Dowon had been peaceable for a very long time. The elders of assorted factions preventing for energy, one thing that will by no means have occurred with out this basis of peace.
-Kwaang!
However now, for the primary time, the peace of Dowon started to crumble.
“Kyaaaak!”
An surprising assault. Together with the sunken tiled roofs, the mountainside slowly crumbled from the underside.
The scream of a girl rising from her home turned her demise throes as she collapsed instantaneously, her throat pierced by the attacker’s sword. Thud—She fell to the bottom like a paper doll.
“Weren’t these imagined to be martial artists? They’re ineffective.”
“Rattling, that’s simply speak. They’re no totally different from barbarians who can’t even use magic.”
Emblazoned with the guild’s crest, a succesful A-rank hunter drafted from the affiliation.
Strutting round, they drew a mocking smile as they regarded on the pool of blood beneath the girl.
“The one good factor is… the ladies listed below are distinctive. All of them are fairly, with voluptuous our bodies. Take a look at this~”
A person lifted the girl’s face and forcefully grabbed her ample chest. His companion chuckled disdainfully.
“Krgh…eugh.”
Air bubbles burst from the girl’s pierced throat. She was nonetheless alive, trying on the two males in terror.
“We didn’t come right here to fiddle.”
“What? You suppose we got here to seize Cheonma? We’re simply right here to select up scraps. And what are you aware? Right here’s some.”
The opposite facet of conflict. Those that secretly glad their wishes.
Whether or not it was disgusting sexual lust or the impulse to kill didn’t matter.
“Ever finished it with a corpse?”
“Cease spouting nonsense.”
“…We will’t make a dwelling as hunters with out doing this type of stuff. When have we ever sought justice or something like that?”
Those that made a dwelling by killing have been thought-about to have their very own psychological points. The person tore off the girl’s high.
“Have you learnt why slaves from Dowon are in style? They’re all harmless. Hardly any expertise. Kidnap them, drug them a bit, they usually’ll do something. You’ll be taught the whole lot when you play on this water.”
“Plainly’s been reduce off not too long ago too.”
“Yeah, due to that Cheonma bastard. However after in the present day, issues will return to regular.”Learn newest chapters at novelbin(.)co/m
Their dialog was stuffed with mocking laughter. The sunshine slowly pale from the girl’s eyes.
“Anyway, let’s simply combat sufficient to flee, seize a girl, and go to the bushes close by… You already know?”
Simply as the person was about to throw the girl apart and stomp on her head,
In that temporary second, a vivid pink line appeared on the hunters’ necks.
“Ah… Krgh?!”
The rising voice became a leaking air sound. Frantically reaching for his or her necks… however their heads have been already severed. The 2 males comically fell to the bottom, clutching their very own necks.
Heads hollowed out. The 2 corpses collapsed subsequent to the girl, unaware even in demise.
“Heal her.”
Wearing black, an outdated man stood in entrance of her, scattering cigarette smoke. One other man following him positioned his hand on the girl’s neck.
Two warriors appeared on the decrease a part of Dowon.
The scenario modified right away.
“Ah, ah. Aaaaah.”
Experiencing a piercing by the throat was not one thing an abnormal individual might endure. Even when it healed and there was no ache, the vivid reminiscence would proceed to torment.
A lady, her higher clothes fully eliminated.
I eliminated my outer garment and draped it over the girl’s shoulders.
“Come again to your senses.”
“Ah. Ah.”
I used to be not unaware of the horrors of conflict. Such occasions have been rampant all through historical past, lengthy prior to now.
Paradoxically, some of these crimes have been very efficient in boosting navy morale. They deserved reward for not discriminating of their strategies.
The bastards from the World Tree.
[Not all trees are like that.]
‘I do know.’
As soon as they set their sights on attacking Dowon, civilian casualties have been inevitable. I knew, however… since in the present day wasn’t the tip of Dowon, I may need taken it a bit calmly.
I watched the outdated man’s again.
The outdated man, as if disgusted, lifted his head. One other elder, holding a scabbard, was him.
Two unfathomable energies started to unfold slowly from their toes.
The increasing magical energy clashed, unable to beat one another’s momentum.
─Baekdan Simgye · Seondeok (Advantage)
─Cheonma Singong · Il (One) Baekdo (White Peach)
Flash!
Abruptly, morning arrived within the dim daybreak. White lightning, Thunder, engulfed everything of Dowon in a white swirl.
-Crackle!
Close by bushes have been uprooted, finely chopped, and disappeared into mud carried by the wind. The outdated man appeared in entrance of Cheonma, reducing by the mud storm.
With a blade sharp as ice, Mugung appeared to swing his sword.
─Cheongdan Simgye · Heogong (Void)
Within the blink of an eye fixed, a strike from under. The blue lake harshly tore by Cheonma’s physique.
Waves of fluctuating magical energy surged over Cheonma like a tide. A triple strike got here from immediately above.
─Baedalgye · Daedeoksa Baek · Baekran (White Circle)
The looks of a crescent moon. The curved sword strike shattered perceptions.
A battle out of attain for abnormal individuals, fought by those that have reached a sure realm.
-Growth!
White vitality was shattered with a single punch from Cheonma.
“…Annoyingly busy as ever.”
“Wouldn’t you say the identical?”
Mugung nonchalantly responded to Cheonma’s sarcasm. In contrast to the intense Cheonma, Mugung’s face was stuffed with pleasure.
“You haven’t rusted a bit. Astonishingly so.”
Mugung shrugged his shoulders, decreasing his pointed sword. The lifespan of Cheonma, of which not a lot remained, contrasted with the comparatively younger Mugung. It was apparent who had the higher hand.
“…When you haven’t gone senile, you’d know.”
“Are you referring to aiming for my successor?”
They each knew what the opposite was conscious of. Cheonma and Mugung had accepted this.
“That child is doomed in the present day. Dowon, the title matches fairly effectively.”
Aptly named. The second Dowon died, Dowon too perished. Cheonma scoffed on the double entendre.
“Do you really imagine he’ll die?”
“…What do you imply?”
“Don’t underestimate him an excessive amount of. Regardless of being foolishly naive, the Sword Saint’s eye is rotten to the core of a knothole.”
Cheonma’s eyes sharpened.
-Thump!
A presence was felt over his shoulder. Regardless of being past the realm and in full energy, it was not a possible to be simply dismissed.
Mugung’s face stiffened momentarily upon feeling this however then relaxed. The potential was there, but it surely hadn’t turn into a major drive but.
Younger Demon. Dowon. The one one who knew about him was Cheonma.
“Generally, there’s somebody whose thoughts simply snaps.”
“…Are you speaking about your disciple?”
“In a duel, the primary and final 5 minutes are completely frivolous. Foolishly laughing, making pointless jokes, and above all, weak.”
What made that man like that remained unknown. Cheonma reminisced in regards to the coaching of Dowon from his reminiscences.
-……
A face frozen chilly. Pupils devoid of sunshine. He wouldn’t reply to phrases, solely silently craving victory.
Even with restricted magical energy, he was an opponent that even Cheonma couldn’t afford to underestimate.
“I don’t know what you’re speaking about.”
Cheonma’s eyes twitched in annoyance.
“You’ll perceive if you meet him.”
There was a cause why he rudely borrowed the title of Younger Demon with out saying something.
“We aren’t the beasts.”
-……
Even blood turned to ice.
The useless or dying people and tree figures. Their gaze was mounted in a single place.
May there be anybody else on this world who might embody concern any higher?
The murderous intent piercing deeply by the physique makes one’s legs give out. These with out actual expertise have been unable to do something.
The horrified gaze of everybody on the crossroads of life and demise.
“……”
The person, with inscrutable eyes, regarded on the corpses with out saying a phrase.
Standing silently.
