The disappearance of Alec Ozburn.
The encounter between the Sword Dragon and the Sword of Justice, which gathered people's attention, was abolished by the sudden disappearance of Alec.
Last time I saw him rush out of the hotel, he didn't show up any more.
Several speculations were poured out about his disappearance. The most powerful speculation is also the assassin of Devil Church.
It's quite a famous story to Alec that the Demon Assassins have been following him since a month ago.
People were terrified.
Shortly after it was discovered that World Ranker Fujimoto Ryoma was an evil devil worshipper, Alec Ozburn died.
It means that the forces of Demon Church are enormous enough to kill or repent even world rankers.
Once swept away the Devil Church, the reverberation echoed in Korea, which was in peace.
People bought large quantities of emergency food, such as canned tuna, as if there had been any war.
There was not enough chaos to paralyse the economy, but there was a marked decline in the number of people out of the streets.
Fear of demonism is also in place in Korea.
Author (carrot): Hey, what do you do? I can't go to work. Fear.
┗ Author (Shake): 3 of our company are absent today;; Oh, it's open.
Author: How long ago, in Russia, Demon Church just killed a man, and that's how our country works?
Author (want to go home): Sword Dragon? What's the Sword Dragon doing?
Author (ZiTT): Don't know. They don't even see a sword dragon. And Alec searched. What's the point of a sword dragon?
People's attention was naturally directed to the Korean holy sword dragon Kim Si-hun.
However, the majority were of the opinion that there was nothing the Sword Dragon could do in the yard where World Rankers were defeated.
Thus, there was growing fear of demonism in Korea.

Huuuuuuu!
The blue-colored sword sways with a gruesome voice.
Cheonmujin froze and stopped Kim Si-hun's screening, who was swinging by a frightening force.
Kwaang!
The explosion erupted. The classroom was shaken with expensive money.
The retreat followed.
"Phew, Phew!"
Kim Si-hoon vomited a rough breath.
Cheonmujin lowered his sword.
"Let's get there today."
"More, you can do it."
"... With that body?"
Cheonmujin laughed in vain.
My whole body was wet with sweat and I was stumbling like I was going to fall right away.
'But.'
As enthusiastic as the eyes were, they were still shining.
His eyes were so horrible that the blood of the unmanned man boiled.
'What happened?'
Kim Si-hun's attitude changed from the day Alec Ozburn disappeared to the beginning.
I was desperate.
He was extinguishing three times more training than usual.
'Thanks to you, the martial arts are getting terribly strong.'
The speed at which Kim Si-hun became stronger was alarming, coupled with his desperate efforts in the talent of celestial bones.
'I'm worried.'
What made him so desperate?
I asked him a few times, but he didn't answer.
Cheonmujin swallowed the immersion. Raising one hand, he said.
"Then let's take a 10-minute break and start over."
"Ha, ha. Got it."
I lay on the floor as if Kim Shi-hoon were down.
The Cheonbae Jin, who was looking down at him, came out of the training room within days. I saw a familiar young man.
It was raining.
"What about Sihun?"
"I've been practicing all day. I don't know if I should call this enthusiasm or madness."
"It's not madness. He's not that weak."
"Well, I agree with that. But I can't help worrying. You said you didn't know why the Sword Dragon suddenly changed like that?"
"Yes, you don't tell me."
"Argh. I think it has something to do with Alec Ozburn, but he doesn't talk to me."
Cheonmujin seemed worried. Rain smiled faintly.
"It's instinct that craves power."
"Oh, I have a suggestion for you."
"Proposal?"
The rain curled his head.
Cheonmujin spoke with a heavy expression.
"I'm going to go hunting monsters with the Sword Dragon this time."
"Ho."
"A simple retreat means nothing to a sword dragon now. I like to gain level and practical experience while fighting monsters."
It was a reasonable opinion.
"So you're going to the Water Source S Gate?"
Cheonmujin shook his head.
"I'm going to Shanghai."
"If Shanghai.."
Like Hokkaido, it was a place with an SS gate.
"Isn't it too early?"
"Don't worry. I'm here to help you."
Cheonmujin said with a voice full of himself.
Rain was a bit of a worry.
'Send Kim Shi Hoon to China, D.'
It was against the terms of my first contract with Cheonfujin.
However, there seemed to be no problem with the level of trust in him now.
"Very well. If it's for Sihun, we should do it."
"You'll be terribly strong, Sword Dragon."
"I know."
Rain smiled at the feeder. Otherwise, the previous sufferings are meaningless.
"Oh, and in the meantime, I'm not taking any communications equipment."
"Do you intend to do some Abandoned Pipeline Training?"
"Well, that's what it feels like."
Cheonmujin nodded.
Rain was briefly submerged in worries.
'It doesn't matter much.'
I didn't need Kim Shi-hoon right now. Even if a demon suddenly appeared.
What was important to him was growing, and Cheonmujin's proposed method was the most efficient way to grow.
'I didn't mean to say waste pipe drill.'
Gate hunting and Abandoned Pipeline training felt a little different, but the core was the same.
Growth was a kind of flow.
While studying in the reading room, even the sound of breathing was disturbing, it was possible to disperse even the smallest disturbances.
'If you are in a hurry, you can call it subordinate power.'
I didn't think there was a big problem.
"Yes, I understand."
"Hhh. I'll be leaving right away tomorrow, so know that. When the Abandoned Pipeline training is over, the Sword Dragon may follow me more than you."
"Hahaha."
I lightly burst into laughter. He approached Kim Si-hoon, who was lying past Cheonmujin and said.
"That's not gonna happen."
Even if Cheonmujin became a teacher, there was no way Kim could follow Cheonmujin more than himself.
'Cause I made it impossible.'
Rain smiled and Kim Si-hun sat beside the floor.
Kim Si-hoon stood up.
"Oh, Brother Rain!"
"Lie down."
"No, it's time for a break."
Kim Shi Hun raised his body. At this moment, his body twisted.
"Well…."
"Sihun."
"Oh, I'm fine, brother."
He shook his hand urgently. Rain following Kim Shi Hoon opened his mouth.
"I don't know what happened to you that day."
"……."
Kim Shi Hoon shut up firmly.
"I don't even know why you're being so desperate."
"That."
He bites his lips and raises his hand to the sword sack. Kim Shi-hoon's expression darkened.
Rain shakes his head and speaks.
"I'm worried, but don't let it dry. I won't even ask you anymore. Instead…."
I put my hand on Kim Shi-hoon's shoulder. Warm temperatures crossed each other. Kim Si-hoon's eyes widened.
"Be strong, Sihun."
"Brother..."
There were faint tears in his eyes.
Kim Shi Hoon trembled as if he was thrilled. He grabbed the sword sack and tendoned his hand.
"Very well, brother."
Eyes filled with burning will turned toward the rain.
The rain turned around.
Turning back, his mouth twisted up.
'As planned.'
I endured the laughter that burst out.
* * *
Kim Shi-hoon and Cheonmujin left for Shanghai.
After clearing up Kim Si-hoon's problem, rainfall focused on the Devil's movement.
Demonic activity that has become increasingly active in Russia in recent years.
"I have to go myself."
I couldn't confirm it because the incident would not stop.
Rain collected information about the Russian region where the Devil Church incident occurred through the next play.
"Haah."
A sigh came out of me.
In his hand, sitting in the living room, there was a map of Russia handed over by the smoker.
"It's so filthy wide."
Russian soil masses were different in dimensions from cramped Korea.
It was definitely a map of Russia, and I felt like I was looking at a map of the world.
I was thinking of finding the Devil Church that I didn't even know was there, and frankly, I was only pushed to darkness.
'Can you find this?'
Honestly, I wasn't confident.
I'd rather be open-minded and let the devil fly.
'But I have to go.'
Once again, a sigh came out.
Tours.
At that time, a call came in.
It was the next player.
"What's going on?"
[Rain, where are you now?]
"Home."
[Turn on the TV now.]
Hard voice.
It felt something similar to the previous completion of the station.
Rain turned on the TV at the end of the week.
"This is…."
I saw a ruined city like the Post Apocalypse.
There was a huge black crack between the destroyed buildings.
[Breaking news! A massive monster has appeared in Vladivostok!]
Vladivostok.
It is home to one of the few SS-grade gates in the world and was destroyed like Sapporo or Shanghai five years ago after the "turbulent day".
[That is, the number is so large that it does not count at the moment and is slaughtering the existing SS-grade monsters and heading towards the Manju Valley! Fortunately, there are very few casualties, but the distance from Korea is short, so there is a quick measure….]
I heard the embarrassing voice of the newscaster. I saw a horde of monsters rushing out of the ruined city on camera.
Monsters with a horrible appearance that spills nausea just by watching.
"Ha, ha."
The sound of laughter flowed naturally.
Newscaster said a massive monster appeared, but the rains could be seen.
'Demon Church.'
The identity of the monster walking out of the city was myriad of monsters.
In the middle, there was also a demon-like being.
The mouth goes up. The fist is caught in the flame.
Yolo!
