Episode 261 Demons of Domination (3)
Creon returned to his castle and went up to the 11th floor, the highest floor.
“Ugh!”
As soon as he reached the top floor, a woman’s moans were heard from the left corner. Creon turned his gaze in that direction.
Ugh!
A rectangular membrane as transparent as water was emitting white light, and inside it, Baek Eun-kyung and her escort Han Yu-ra were protecting the ten children.
“What are you doing here?”
“I have come to grant rest to the people in front of my territory. The people who were waiting for you also died.”
“You you bastard!”
Baek Eun-kyung pulled out her sword and tried to run, but she was blocked by the transparent membrane and couldn’t get out. Bloody tears flowed from her reddened eyes.
“Aaaah!”
Baek Eun-gyeong repeatedly struck the membrane with his sword, but the membrane did not break or break.
“The advantage and disadvantage of the product is that users cannot come out.”
Creon grinned. That protective shield was not used by Baek Seon-ah, but was used by the woman next to her and is of saintly origin.
It had a tremendous effect of blocking any energy for just one 24 hours, but it had the disadvantage that the user could not escape the bead’s barrier until that time had passed.
“Even if I die, I will kill at least as much as you!”
“Don’t scream. “Aren’t the kids surprised?”
“Ugh...”
“Ah...”
Creon looked at the children behind Baek Eun-gyeong with a friendly smile. The children were trembling all over and pressed against the wall.
“What on earth are you aiming for! “Are you targeting the young lady?”
Yura Han blocked the children’s view and gritted her teeth at Creon.
“I wasn’t interested in you from the beginning.”
“what?”
“What I wanted was the evil karma mixed with the blood and screams of the humans buried beneath this castle.”
“Bad karma...”
Han Yu-ra repeated the word bad karma in a trembling voice. The evil karma of the man who was the original owner of this castle was clear.
“I gave instructions to Catoil to occupy this land because it is buried with evil karma worse than that of a battlefield.”
“Okay then!”
“The demon energy of Katoil that you killed awakened its evil karma and created the current phenomenon. “Even I didn’t expect this.”
Creon laughed. It was the first devilish smile I saw.
“Thanks to your interference, a great project that would have taken ten years was accomplished in one day. Thanks to the endless burning of demon energy, even powers can be used at will. “Now this continent is no different from the one in my hands.”
“never! You will never achieve it! “I will cut off your life!”
“Oh, looking into those eyes, now I know who you are.”
Creon made eye contact with Baek and nodded. His face brightened as if he realized something.
“I was a kid back then.”
“You remember now! “I have lived all this time to kill you.”
“Ah, I remember it clearly. “To protect you, I even killed a colleague and a child who became my collection.”
“Everyone shut up!”
“To commemorate coming here, let me say hello to you for the first time in a while.”
When Creon snapped his fingers, black smoke spread out like a curtain.
Whoa!
The black curtain lifted and a middle-aged female prosecutor emerged.
The female swordsman looked human, but her skin was gray and a spiral horn protruded from the center of her forehead.
“Ah...”
Baek Eun-kyung fell to her knees, her whole body shaking. I shed tears and scratched the transparent wall with my fingernails.
Excited.
The female prosecutor opened her eyes to the sound of her heartbeat. It wasn’t a human eye. A cool, murderous glow flowed from the triangle-shaped eyes like a reptile.
“I still can’t forget the sight of this child slaughtering dozens of people to save you.”
“Oh no...”
Baek Eun-gyeong, who was confident even in front of Creon, dropped her sword and screamed, looking only at the female prosecutor.
“....”
On the other hand, the female prosecutor had no reaction. All I could do was wait for Creon’s orders with cold eyes.
“A dramatic meeting is always exciting.”
Creon approached the curtain and held out his hand.
“Break down.”
The transparent membrane twisted with a crunching sound.
“Now there are about 8 hours left. After that, you will be able to have the reunion you wanted.”
“Ah...”
“Shut up!”
Yura Han trembled and screamed. Creon’s gaze returned to the children behind her.
“Those children are the stuff of legends in this land. “Be well protected.”
“That legend?”
“I plan to turn him into a vampire.”
“I could never do that! “I will stop it no matter what!”
“It’s beyond your capabilities.”
Creon grinned and clapped his hands. The female prosecutor who heard the sound came to the transparent screen and drew her sword.
“The moment your saintly origins are broken, your head will be blown off by that child.”
**
As soon as Baek Woo-jin arrived in front of Bran Castle, he stood tall as if embarrassed.
The area around the castle was in ruins due to waves of demonic energy, and all the powerful people were dead except for one, Jo Se-hyung.
“Master Do...”
Jo Se-hyung turned his neck, crackling like a broken toy. His pupils were distorted like dried lenses.
“You...”
“Oh, there was a devil.”
“devil? “Are you talking about demons?”
“That’s not a demon. The devil himself...”
Jo Se-hyeong was unable to speak properly as if not only his body but also his mind were broken.
“Woo Woojin! “All these talented people committed suicide.”
“yes?”
Baek Woo-jin turned over the corpse of the prosecutor of the extermination team who was next to Jo Se-hyeong.
The sword of the annihilation sword with the word annihilation engraved on it was stuck in his heart. It was an orbit that stabbed one’s own heart, not someone else’s.
-Now, suicide? All these people?
“What is this...”
Baek Woo-jin’s eyes grew as big as a flower lantern. It is ridiculous that all talented people committed suicide.
“It’s all the work of the devil. “When the devil told him to die, he took up a weapon and stabbed himself in the heart.”
-what? What bullshit is that!
“...is that possible?”
The talented people here are not psychologically unstable people, but healthier people than anyone else.
No matter how powerful a person is, it would be impossible for anyone but God to make such people commit suicide at the same time.
“That guy is the Creon you were looking for.”
“I didn’t feel wrong after all!”
Chae Joong-hyun’s eyes lit up. This vicious yet sticky magic power was as expected, and Creon’s magic power was correct.
“He has the power to give orders. The reason these people committed suicide was because Creon gave the order. However, there must be a limit to that power, so you can use it so recklessly...”
-You have that kind of crazy ability?
“Crazy...”
Baek Woo-jin blurted out. When I heard that Creon had the ability to rule, what I thought was possible came true in reality.
When Baek Woo-jin slashed his sword diagonally, the demonic flames that filled the front completely disappeared.
Cheeeeee!
Without wasting time, Baek Woo-jin raised his brain power and unleashed five lightning bolts. Although their numbers were reduced, their power and speed were incomparable.
“Krrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!”
“Keuung!”
Even in the midst of panic, the hell hound tried to avoid the lightning island by kicking the ground and the wall, but the lightning island turned like a thunderbolt on the wind and exploded into the hell hound’s body.
“Kkeeeeee!”
“Kwiik!”
The sharp sword and lightning power exploded, turning the five hellhounds into ashes in an instant.
“Hmm, I don’t really need any support? Instead, I will find the way. So, how to find the direction on the five-way road...”
“Wait a minute.”
Baek Woo-jin looked around in five directions and felt good. His energy was able to swim freely even in a space surrounded by demonic energy and find the correct path.
“This is the fourth path. Let’s go.”
Baek Woo-jin pointed to the fourth direction and took the first step.
“You cook it all by yourself?”
“Save your strength. “It gets faster and faster, so it will be difficult to keep up later.”
Moon Joo-young chuckled.
“dad! “Go quickly!”
“Oh, I understand.”
Chae-Jin Chae also patted Chae Jung-Hyeon on the back, and Chae Jung-Hyeon sighed and followed Baek Woo-Jin. Moon Joo-young looked behind him and made his final move.
Baek Woo-jin moved to the front and cut off the heads of all the hell hounds.
He learned how to find traps and mazes from Muyounggaek and nullified the barrier with the ability of the barrier force leader, so nothing could stop him.
Baek Woo-jin and his companions broke through the traps and hellhounds and found the stairs to the second floor within 20 minutes.
“I think those are the stairs!”
“It’s not over yet.”
Baek Woo-jin calmed Choi So-jin down and stepped forward alone. Hearing his steps, ten hellhounds hiding in front of the stairs appeared.
“Crumbling!”
“Keuuuuung!”
“Krrr....”
The Hell Hounds spread out in a fan shape and simultaneously spewed out magical flames.
Cheeeeee!
Baek Woo-jin raised the Armin Sword, created a wind wall sword mark, and then gathered auras into the Armin Sword.
Sigh!
When the wind wall blocked all of the demonic fire, he drew his sword in a straight line.
Toouk.
A black light thinner than a thread flashed and the Hell Hound’s head fell at the same time.
Baek Woo-jin used his strength for a split second and cut off the heads of the Hellhounds.
“her!”
Chae Joong-hyun shook his head as if he was impressed. It was a much more difficult art to use strong energy only when necessary rather than maintaining strong energy continuously.
“It’s perfect...”
Baek Woo-jin wasn’t just strong in arms. He had a lot of experience and skillful skills. It felt like I was seeing a master over 50, not 20 years old.
“There’s really nothing to do.”
“You’ll have something to do soon.”
It was when Baek Woo-jin climbed over the corpses of the hell hounds and headed toward the stairs.
Grumble!
An octagonal magic circle made of black flames burned in front of the stairs.
Coo!
A black dog appeared above the magic circle.
It had a similar appearance to a hell hound, but was as big as a house and had three heads on one body.
“Que Cerberus.”
A moan-like name came out of Chae Jung-hyun’s lips. It was Cerberus, a three-headed watchdog that spewed the flames of hell.
“Crumbling!”
“Krrrr....”
“Churrr!”
The flames of hell bloomed from Cerbers’ three heads.
Quaaaaa!
When Cerberus raised his front paw and struck the ground, the demonic energy that covered the first floor shook.
-Cerberus is the watchdog that guards the gates of Hell. That guy was here.
‘So, it’s a guard dog.’
-Uhm, so to speak, right?
“Originally, if a dog gets hit, the owner is supposed to come forward.”
Baek Woo-jin approached Cerberus.
“Crrrrrrr!”
Cerberus’s three heads opened their mouths simultaneously. A bright red flame rose from the black throat.
Quaaaaa!
Bright red flames poured from Cerberus’s three spouts, covering Baek Woo-jin. The floor and walls melted like candle wax in the intense heat.
“Aaaah!”
“Woojin!”
Chae Jung-hyeon and Chae Jin-jin screamed when they saw Baek Woo-jin covered in hell’s flames.
“....”
But Moon Ju-young trusted Baek Woo-jin and just watched without saying a word.
Whoa!
Baek Woo-jin’s black seal appeared in the swirling flames. As he slashed his sword, the flames cleared like fog.
“Crrrrrrrrr?”
Cerbers’ six eyes were filled with extreme confusion. It was a flame that could melt even steel, but humans were not even burned.
“Big!”
Cerbers stepped back and raised the flames of the demon world. The maximum firepower available was poured into the humans.
Cheeeeee!
Just before the flames of the demon world reached, Baek Woo-jin raised the dark sword. A jet-black brilliance bloomed on the pure white sword body.
Sigh!
The flames of hell parted like the Red Sea and Cerberus’ bewildered face was revealed.
“Crrrrrrr!”
“Whoa!”
Cerberus sensed that Baek Woo-jin was killing him and urgently took refuge in the air.
But Baek Woo-jin was faster.
Whoops!
Stepping on the extremely exhilarating staircase, he rose above Cerberus’ head and struck down the Nakil Cham.
A sword strike as sharp as a crescent moon blooming after setting the sun was drawn over Cerberus’ head.
“Kkeiing...”
With a scream, Cerberus’s triceps split at an angle and fell.
Coooooo!
The headless body of the watchdog fell to the ground, and Baek Woo-jin climbed down on top of it.
“Ah...”
“Uh...”
Chae Jung-hyeon and Chae Jin-jin looked at Baek Woo-jin’s back with a lost expression, as if their heads were not turning.
“Let’s go quickly.”
Baek Woo-jin put the Armin Sword in its sheath and stepped on the stairs to the second floor.
“Do you think the owner would be angry because he caught the dog?”
