Chapter 393

Episode 393

‘It feels different.’

This was the fourth time using a bomber.

The first time was to punish the second death penalty that led to my death in my previous life.

Next, to break through the illusionary camp set up in front of Gija Cheon’s secret building.

Most recently, four years ago, to deal with the absolute expert Blood Flower Witch, who occupied the top spot in the eight great demon armies.

‘There’s definitely a difference from four years ago.’

A time when I was lying in a hospital bed after receiving a diagnosis from a doctor that I would have to focus on recovery for six months.

As I reminisced about the fight with the Blood Witch, one possibility came to mind.

If your level rises and your body grows to another level.

If you can handle the amplified energy without difficulty and calm down the boiling energy on your own.

Wouldn’t it be possible to use Pokyammagong without worrying about side effects?

‘You can control it.’

As he ascended to the prefectural level, his physical performance improved to an incomparable level compared to before.

If it were me now, it would be possible to minimize the recoil of the bomb attack and significantly increase its duration.

If I pushed a little too hard, I felt like I could use the second half of Wolyeonggeom’s herbal attack.

There was no longer a need to insist on the ignorant and monotonous strategy of pushing forward only with force.

‘but.’

It is still too early to stop worrying about side effects.

Whether or not one could survive could only be judged after the fight was over.

Of course, you should worry more about whether you can defeat the demonic lord in front of you right now, rather than about the reaction of the magic attack.

[Yes, I made that decision in the end.]

There was no way the leader didn’t know that I had mastered the magic technique.

The church members must have reported the circumstances under which the Blood Flower Witch met her death.

However, he threatened Tang Seo-yeon in front of me.

Although he could have stopped breathing in an instant, he deliberately took his time as if showing off.

As if they were trying to get me to make an extreme choice.

What it meant was clear.

The religious leader had absolute confidence.

I am confident that even if I were to use gold, I would be able to subdue him.

‘I’d say it’s arrogance, but the leader is a person with the ability to do so.’

I knew he was strong.

There could be no other person to whom the title ‘the best in the world’ fits so well.

Neither the two nobles of the martial faction nor even my teacher, the Thunder King, were his opponents.

‘...I never thought it would be like this.’

Is it true that when you climb to a high place, the scenery you see changes?

I was able to feel it more clearly because I was operating a bomber.

The endless strength of the Demon Cultist.

A huge sphere of influence spread out around him.

“this guy!”

“How dare you offend the religious leader!”

Several demonic cultists rushed at me, shouting in anger.

I kept walking without even looking at them.

Ku-kwa-kwa-kwaang!

A tremendous explosion engulfed the new form of the demons.

A body torn apart.

Flesh and blood splattered everywhere.

Suddenly, the soldiers around them started screaming in surprise.

The distance from the Demon Cultist has become closer.

I stood facing him with a length of space between me.

“come. “I will give in to the player.”

“I will not decline.”

As soon as I finished speaking, I kicked the ground with my toe.

The inner energy that came out of the dantian and circulated in the body’s blood flow channel was erupted through Yongcheonhyeol (湧泉穴), adding to the driving force.

When I started using Geumgong, time was not on my side.

We had to come to a conclusion as quickly as possible.

“Sounds like fun.”

The sword energy flowing along the blade of Geogwol rose up and took on a clear shape.

Geumchang medicine was applied and the wound was stitched with a needle.

Then he took off the clothes he was wearing and tore off the clean part.

First aid was completed only after covering the affected area with a cloth.

“ha.”

Dang Seo-yeon let out the breath she had been holding and wiped the sweat from her forehead with her sleeve.

For now, we have passed the dangerous juncture.

There would be some aftereffects, but I thought that as long as I took good follow-up measures, my life would be fine.

She carefully picked up Cheon Ga-ryeong’s body and started running towards the friendly barracks where the congressman was waiting.

‘You can’t die. Brother.’

A conversation she had with Cheon Ji-ryeong in the past passed through her mind.

[I’ll nail it down for sure. I will achieve the future I want with my own hands. I don’t need your consideration in that process.]

[.......]

[I’ll pretend I didn’t hear the story.]

I haven’t even properly apologized for what happened back then.

He hurt her with his selfish remarks, and instead of coming to a proper conclusion, he only dragged out his time.

I couldn’t help but regret it.

I could never have felt my indecisiveness so pathetic.

‘I still have a lot of things I want to say to you.’

The relationship she built with Cheon Ji-ryeong was very precious to Tang Seo-yeon.

A review of a friend of the same age who had his first strong performance.

Although he was said to be a younger brother, in reality, he was closer to a friend.

She was one of the few people with whom Tang Seo-yeon could talk openly.

‘So you must live.’

Kwaaaaang!

Even though we were getting farther and farther away from the battlefield, the noise in our ears was getting louder.

It meant that the fight between Yeonsun and Ma Cyoju was intensifying.

Tang Seo-yeon glanced back and prayed earnestly in her heart.

‘Please be safe. ‘Unlang.’

* * *

The heart of the ruins located inside the tomb.

Staring at the demonic cultists crossing the wide and long hallway, Wu Ga-jin pulled out the curved sword strapped to his back.

“Wouldn’t it be better to attack now?”

“Can we fight head on?”

“Why do you think the Cheonan Inspector assigned me to the infiltration team?”

Woo Ga-jin smiles, showing her teeth.

The young man, Zhuge Hyukjin, nodded lightly in agreement.

The man in front of me is a man of ability who has reached the absolute heights.

Just by his presence, the infiltration team’s power could be seen as greatly exceeding that of the enemy.

If we took advantage of surprise, we could minimize the damage that would occur during the battle.

‘It’s only a matter of time before the demons we defeated on the way here are discovered. The situation needs to be resolved as quickly as possible. ‘There is no reason to hesitate when the conditions are met.’

After exchanging signals with glances, the members of the infiltration team all ran out of the passage and attacked the demonic cultists.

The demons, startled by the sudden attack, let out cries of astonishment.

“What are these guys!”

“Where did it come out from?”

“What on earth are those people outside doing? “I guess the battle isn’t over yet?”

“Don’t panic! Even so, it is only a minority!”

An unpleasant crashing sound filled the hallway.

The members of the infiltration team, led by Wu Ga-jin, mercilessly slaughtered the demon cultists and broke their ranks.

Did he realize the seriousness of the situation?

The two demons, who were presumed to be experts in fireworks, immediately joined the battle.

When Sa Woo-yeon saw the face of one of the dogs, her movements stopped for an instant.

“Why all of a sudden?”

Seo Ho-seon looked back at him with an anxious expression.

I don’t know why, but the atmosphere in Sawooyeon was unusual.

It was a far cry from his usual cool and calm demeanor.

Crash!

The sound of teeth grinding was eerie.

Sawooyeon, who was glaring with bloodshot eyes at the demon fighting with Woo Gajin, suddenly let out a cry that was like the roar of an animal.

“You idiot!”
