Chronicles of the Demon Faction

Episode 184 King of Beasts (4)

“Gasp!”

Seo-ryang, pale and exhausted, fell backwards.

“Confucius!”

Ma Dong-pil came next to him. He also had blood stains around his mouth, as if he had suffered internal injuries while fighting Cheonho’s martial arts attack.

Seoliang smiled mischievously even while panting.

“It wasn’t bad, right?”

“Confucius, really….”

“Gasp! huh?”

Ma Dong-pil bit his lip.

The absolute master who rose to the top of the pole is in such a devastated state. It is said that the opponent was also an expert who had reached the realm of harmony, but this makes no sense.

‘I made a mistake.’

It was not because of guilt for not being able to protect the target of the guard as a guard.

‘Confucius took charge of even the tasks that he did not need to do himself.’

Starting with the hostage situation with the beast palace lord, all kinds of battles, and even the fight with Tang family.

It is difficult to deny that it was Seoriang who was able to successfully end all those fights. But it was also something I didn’t have to do alone.

For example, it only took one of either himself or Yeo Kang-hwi to lure the party. However, Yeo Kang-hwi was excluded because he could interfere with the hostage situation, and he was also excluded because he could be in trouble.

It was a valid reason. However, in that case, Confucius had to handle everything on his own, and that was actually the case.

If Confucius had intervened more actively in the situation, Confucius might not have been so unreasonable.

‘Perhaps I too have come to rely on Confucius before I know it.’

Ma Dong-pil’s face is filled with confusion and guilt.

What did you feel? Xu Liang pretended to clear his throat.

“When you’re done with work, carry it on your back. “I have no strength at all.”

“…yes.”

“It’s not fun.”

Xiliang scratched his head.

“Anyway, unfortunately I missed the opportunity.”

“yes?”

“You, you.”

“What do you mean…?”

“Oh, you didn’t realize it until then?”

Ma Dong-pil had a look of puzzlement on his face.

“No, it’s okay. “If I tell you, it will only confuse you.”

“Yes.”

Seoyang made a loud noise and raised his upper body. He was supported by Ma Dong-pil and looked forward.

‘It’s definitely changed.’

It was no exaggeration to say that the front line was literally devastated.

Even with Yuhonbicheon, which was unleashed with only 30% of its original strength, the ground was broken and turned over. If my body was healthy, the range would have been much greater.

However, the difference in power itself would not have been large. It was a trace that proved that quality is more important than quantity.

‘I still need to pay more attention. The scope must be reduced and the power concentrated. ‘Manipulating power that is just a lump is not true Igigeo (以氣馭).’

But still….

“Because I definitely got the harpoon.”

There was no longer any sign of Cheonho, who was buried in the powdery ground. Although his senses had become dull due to the consumption of all his magical energy, it was clear that he was dead.

“That guy’s body is as solid as a work of art. In the meantime, you’re still pretty fine, right?”

It is surprising that it maintained its shape despite being hit directly by the Yuhonbicheon. The left arm was blown off, but the right arm and the leg that had been bitten off by the tiger king were still intact.

Cry.

Geumho touched the body of King Tiger, who had fallen to the side.

“Same goes for that guy.”

He is bleeding from his eyes, nose and mouth. Although it was out of the range of Yuhonbicheon’s direct hit, the shock wave shook the five organs and six parts.

A look of bitterness appeared on Seo-ryang’s face.

‘I feel uncomfortable.’

Beast To put it more bluntly, it is a monster. However, even such a monster was made to attack the human who was its master.

It was a fight that I could have won somehow, but I also wondered if it had to go this far.

Seoliang, who was quietly looking at King Tiger, took a step forward. Ma Dong-pil quickly came to his side and supported him.

Crumble. Cry.

King Tiger, who was taking a deep breath, glanced at Seoliang.

Animals cannot make facial expressions. But there seemed to be a subtle fear in his eyes.

It’s worth it. Having been subjected to such a ridiculous martial arts attack, one cannot help but feel fear.

Xiliang placed his hand on King Hu’s head.

flinch!

The Tiger King’s body trembled.

“Stay still. “I haven’t been able to eliminate all the core of my magic power yet.”

Burr.

“You may have become a monster, but now live as the King of the Mountains. “Don’t get caught up in anything.”

Demonic energy bloomed once again in Seo-ryang’s hands.

Ma Dong-pil’s face showed concern.

“Confucius.”

“are you okay. Geumho is handing out flags. “I can endure this much.”

Ma Dong-pil was also vaguely aware of the relationship between Seoryang and Geumho. But knowing that didn’t make my worries go away.

“Sigh.”

Seo-ryang stopped breathing and poured out his magical energy.

Grrrr!

The king’s body trembled greatly.

Cold sweat formed on Seo-ryang’s forehead.

‘It’s difficult as expected.’

Dismantling it wasn’t difficult, but the problem was magic.

Delicate work is difficult with rough maggi. Moreover, in human terms, it is a task that touches the top. If you make a mistake, your brain will turn to mush and you will die.

Of course, I thought it wouldn’t matter if I died like this. Regardless of the threat it poses, if this creature is alive, the herbivorous animals in this area will die out. If the chain of magical power is broken, loyalty to the palace lord will be broken.

But… I didn’t really want to worry about it.

‘Live as you want, right?’

Honestly, I feel uncomfortable.

Wooooow!

Suddenly, only the whites of the Tiger’s eyes remained. It seemed like a very dangerous situation to be biting into bubbles.

At that time, Seo-ryang raised his left hand and struck the king of kings in the abdomen.

Bullfight!

The king suddenly vomited blood.

Cheeeeeek!

Surprisingly, the ground that came in contact with the blood he vomited started to smoke and burn. Moreover, the color of the blood was dark green.

The core of magical power that was locked up in the upper chamber was moved to the stomach and then wrapped in turbid blood and made to vomit out. Infusing energy into another person’s blood is the highest level of true energy tuning, and it would have been difficult for anyone other than Seo-ryang to attempt it.

Crumble!

The Tiger King’s eyes, which had vomited blood, returned to normal. The pupils were still red, but the blind ferocity as before was gone.

“Whew, it’s okay.”

Geumho approached Seoryang, who was sitting down. The way he licked Seo-ryang’s cheek seemed like he was worried about him.

It was then.

“Confucius.”

“huh?”

Ma Dong-pil looked north.

“I can feel the magic energy.”

“Oh yeah?”

My body is in such a mess.

I thought about writing Cheonra Yuktongsik, but I decided against it. The fight is almost over anyway. There is no need to push yourself any further.

“Are you the Great Lord?”

“no. “Jinmadae is probably a bit more serious than the prayer of Gwangmadae.”

“I see.”

“And… there is a tremendous energy wave mixed in. “It seems he is a magician.”

“One horse commander and one unit. “It would have been an incredible help if you had come sooner.”

Xu Liang grumbled. It seemed like he couldn’t bear it.

After a while, over two hundred demons appeared.

Flash!

The elderly man in the lead got down on one knee.

“Invincible Christianity! Manmaangbok! “The Seven Demon Lords meet the Three Princes!”

Then the two hundred horsemen of the Jinma Dae also knelt down and bowed their heads.

“Meet the Three Princes!”

Powerful magical energy comes out of the loud cry.

Seoliang wrinkled his nose without realizing it. In the past, I was very nervous, but now it actually calms my mind.

“Nice to meet you.”

Chilmajang Kwak Sang’s face hardened.

“Sam Gongja. “What about that wound…?”

“Oh this? Well… that’s how it happened.”

Death appeared in Gwak Sang’s eyes.

“What kind of bastard dares to kill!”

“You can relax. “The guy who brought us to this point was just sent to the netherworld.”

Seoyang pointed back with his thumb.

Gwak Sang followed the direction he pointed and was surprised.

A person was found buried in the devastated land.

“That guy…?”

“Beast Palace Lord.”

The sound of swallowing was heard here and there.

It was hard to believe that such traces were created by martial arts, but the identity of the person buried there shocked them.

‘You defeated the Southern King?!’

It is known that Yasugungju, the emperor of the South, has reached the point of harmony through his inaction. If the three gongja killed such an expert, his martial arts should also be considered to have reached the extreme level.

Gwak Sang looked back at Seoliang.

His face was extremely tired, but his eyes were shining brightly.

Creepy!

Gwak Sang rubbed his forearm without realizing it.

‘It’s real!’

I couldn’t feel any magical energy, but I could tell just by looking at his eyes. It was a powerful presence that made me wonder why I only found out about it now.

‘The Three Dukes have truly awakened the Extreme Demon.’

Kwak Sang felt a sense of wonder.

He was fifty-six this year. Although he has devoted his entire life to martial arts, he has not yet reached the feet of the Ultimate Demon.

However, the Three Dukes, who were only half as strong as he was, awakened the ultimate demon and defeated the absolute powerhouse of the Namman.

‘There is no such thing as a monster.’

He glanced at the Tiger King. A tiger whose mouth was so large was continuously making growling noises.

‘The only tiger this big is the Tiger King, raised by the Beast Palace Lord.’

Gwak Sang lowered his head without realizing it. I felt respect as a Majin vs. a Majin.

“I congratulate you on your great feat.”

Xu Liang waved his hand.

“That’s it. First of all, this matter has been roughly completed, so please call Gwangmadae as soon as possible. “Don’t get caught up in something weird for no reason.”

“There is another horseman attached to the Gwangmadae.”

“Oh, it was like that, right? This is so crazy. Was it the third or fourth time?”

“I am the Four Horsemen. “He is trustworthy in martial arts, but he is especially good at strategy and tactics, so you don’t have to worry too much.”

Xu Liang chuckled.

“It must be a bit of a headache to hold and shake the light pole.”

Kwak Sang smiled faintly.

It was then.

‘…?’

What is this eerie yet bizarre feeling?

Gwak Sang’s head turned to the side.

Paaaaa….

The sound of a pile of dirt breaking could be vaguely heard, as if time had slowed down.

Gwak Sang’s eyes widened.

Paaang!

There was a person or an animal moving so fast that it was lost from sight for an instant.

A bloody beast that had lost its left arm rushed towards me with its white hair fluttering wildly. The rush of a beast with golden eyes radiating was a development that no one expected.

‘Fast…’

Movement at lightning speed, surpassing even the speed of thought.

Cheon-ho flew in with his mouth wide open as if roaring, and stretched out his hand towards Seo-ryang. The thick fingers seemed as if they were going to rip off Seo-ryang’s head in an instant.

A moment of desperation.

At that moment, another golden light exploded next to Xiliang.

* * *

“I see.”

Lee Cheon-sang slowly turns his glass.

A ray of interest rises on his indifferent yet languid face.

“What is the result?”

“The three tribes of the Beast Palace suffered a fatal blow from the Tang family’s memorization and poison, and the Tang family also suffered damage that was close to annihilation. At that time, the light army led by Sima Zhang sortied and won an easy victory.”

The shadow bowed its head.

“I salute you, Master. With this, one of Namman’s headaches has disappeared.”

“Not yet.”

“yes?”

Lee Cheon-sang buried his back in Taesa’s chair.

“The Beast Palace is a powerhouse outside the world that has been in existence for hundreds of years. “It’s not a group that’s ruined, with the leader dying and several hundred of the tribe’s elite troops flying away.”

“Oh yeah.”

“Still, it’s definitely an encouraging achievement.”

Lee Cheon-sang, who had emptied his drink, carelessly threw away the empty glass. The glass that cut through the air was gently placed on the table.

“I didn’t know you were really going to bury the Beast Palace Lord.”

Lee Cheon-sang’s eyes were bent as if he was happy.

‘He’s an interesting guy in many ways.’

It would have been better if an agreement had been made. I know the third child’s personality, but it would have been difficult for him to act recklessly when even the lord of the ice palace was involved.

But I never thought he would have killed the head of the Beast Palace and brought great humiliation to the Tang family.

“Dangaju?”

“We have captured him, but he has not been transported to our school yet.”

“I guess so. “The problem will only increase if the head of the Tang family is already captured and the head of the family is imprisoned.”

When you think of it as an individual, the family leader just looks like an insect in Lee Cheon-sang’s eyes. However, when considered as a group, Tang Gaju was a figure that could not be ignored.

A person who did not stand at the center of the era, but was not far from it. Now was not the time to carelessly mess with the head of the party.

“by the way.”

A rare question appeared on Lee Cheon-sang’s face.

“Where is the third one now?”
