Chapter 210 A pitch-black night (6)
Rustling.
Someone stepped on a leaf.
At first, if it sounded like a sound conveying ‘information that you stepped on’, the form of information transmitted to your head changed as your senses expanded.
Bas Rock. The process of making noise as someone’s foot touches and steps on the leaves can be heard in subdivided increments of one second or less.
And that wasn’t all.
Whiing.
The wind blew.
The mana from Roman Dmitri was mixed with the wind, and the shapes of the enemies touched by the wind were naturally associated in my head.
I could see how many enemies there were around me, what their physical characteristics were, and even whether their physical condition was good or bad when I looked at the breath I was exhaling.
person’s stage.
It is the most basic level.
He laid the foundation for the Heavenly Demon Art, developed his senses, and paved the way for mana to erupt.
Roman Dmitry has developed the human stage.
People exclaimed that Roman Dmitri’s development was rapid, but he remained at the human level until the moment he defeated Butler.
And through training. finally broke the wall
Entering the stage of intellect meant assimilation with nature itself beyond mere development of the body.
My senses stretched out like a spider’s web.
If he accepted nature in the stage of being, he assimilated himself with nature in the stage of intellect.
one step.
moved forward
And the shadows didn’t know what that meant.

The day I first entered the stage of knowledge.
Baek Joong-hyeok slashed the heads of a hundred masters of the political faction he encountered at a dead end.

Qurrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrating.
Auras rose from all sides.
The shadows that manifested the energy of innate power rushed at the same time even without a special signal.
Papabak.
being the first to run.
As he tightened his feet, his thighs swelled greatly, and inhaled to create a dark aura, Roman Dmitri realized his opponent’s intentions.
The change of shadows spread out in a chain.
As if they were communicating mentally, their attack exploded in an instant.
It was fast.
An aura of darkness enveloped their bodies and fell upon Roman Dmitri so quickly that the eye could not see it.
however.
hook.
The first attack missed.
The keenly aroused senses grasped the surrounding information, and complex information such as the direction the dagger was inserted and the wriggling of the muscles conveyed to the head what kind of attack it was.
Being assimilated with nature meant that.
The nature filled with Roman Dmitri’s mana made a certain area into Roman Dmitri’s space, and at the same time avoiding the first attack, he cut off the opponent’s head using flash war.
Flash.
Pooh.
head blown off
It was a situation that was completely incomprehensible to the shadows.
Although he used the aura of darkness as a polarity, he was unable to react to Roman Dmitri’s attack.
furthermore.
The ability to change the body like smoke was not activated.
‘There are weaknesses in the abilities of the enemies.’
advance battle.
Roman Dmitry grasped his opponent’s ability.
Its weaknesses were twofold.
first.
There is a moment when the bodies of the shadows disperse like smoke and then form the body again.
At that time, I couldn’t let go of physical attacks.
The situation in which Roman Dmitri was scattered in smoke when he was cut in the chest, and then died with dark red blood splattered in the follow-up shot, was aimed at reconstructing the body.
second.
This was a more difficult condition than the first.
The opponent showed a subtle flow of mana when he was manifesting a special power and was in a state of not physically existing.
It was the power that sustained the shadow’s existence.
Even if they were scattered by smoke, if there was a link of mana, they would return to their original form, but Roman Dmitri cut the flow at once.
disengagement of the linkage.
It meant the death of the shadow.
As their bodies returned to their original state, they widened their eyes at the sword that cut through them.
Shadow strategy.
It wasn’t common.
How to attack a momentary opportunity is impossible in the normal sense, but it was not a difficult problem for Roman Dmitri, who entered the stage of knowledge.
I caught every movement of the opponent.
He foresaw the timing of reconstructing the body and the flow of mana, and this time, before the opponent could do anything, he cut off the link with the body.
blow.
the shadow is dead
Seeing their colleague fall, the presence of the shadows flared up even more.
Quaang!
Kwak Kwa Kwa Kwam!
There was a huge shock from all sides.
The number of cognates.
The shadows gave up their lives.
When the head of the first shadow flew off, the shadow that followed cut off the body of the preceding shadow and aimed at Roman Dmitri beyond.
I couldn’t find any affection for my colleagues.
As well as the shadows of the body being cut. He held out his sword until the last moment, revealing his intense murderous intent only towards Roman Dmitri.
Qurrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr.
The aura of darkness created a massive explosion.
when a colleague dies.
Their auras manifested more powerful power, which even Roman Dmitri could not ignore.
shadows.
It was strong.
Gustavo Nicholas Butler.
Even if you deal with the continental rankers you’ve defeated so far, it won’t be as threatening as the shadows’ concert.
Explosions erupted from all directions with each breath.
If you block an attack from the front, you hit it from the side, and if you block even that and cut off the enemy’s head, an aura of darkness falls from above like lightning.
Quaang!
Qurrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr.
A thick cloud of dust rose.
At first glance, Roman Dmitri savagely slashed his enemies while wrapped in an aura of darkness.
pod.
Blood spattered.
Roman Dmitri’s eyes were stained red from the dark red blood dripping everywhere.
‘Blood flow.’
blood reacted.
The drops of blood turned into sharp thorns and pierced the vital part of the shadow that was rushing like a thorn.
Papabak.
Beetle.
The shadow trembled.
Roman Dmitri reached out and grabbed the shadow’s head, smashing it to the ground and dispersing it like smoke.
That was it. The head was trampled on before the body was reconstituted.
Roman Dmitry’s face was splattered with blood to the extent that it looked cruel, and the blood flowed to raise drops of blood that pierced the bodies of his enemies mercilessly.
Demon’s martial arts.
That’s how people expressed the martial arts of the Demonic Cult, which only pursued strength.
Meantime.
Roman Dmitry did not actively demonstrate the martial arts of the Demonic Cult.
The exact reason was that there was no need for that, but it was also a choice considering the visual impact.
The Demonic Cult doesn’t care about the gaze.
Even if it splatters with blood and looks like a demon.
It’s enough if you’re strong.
And now.
Roman Dmitri did not hide his options against the Kronos Empire.
Roman Dmitri, who creates a bloody whirlpool against enemies surrounded by darkness, looked even more like a demon.
Kwajik.
smashed the enemy’s head
already ten.
The number of enemies has been significantly reduced.
They were obviously strong, but Kronos’s best did not become the solution to the problem.
overwhelming force.
Was it because the color was dark?
At some point, the shadow that seemed to be the leader disappeared.

A shadow ran through the woods.
this operation.
It was perfect.
Roman Dmitri showed a warlike disposition, as Cronus expected, and crossed the border to attack Ekorche’s stronghold.
In effect, it meant the success of the operation.
Seeing that Roman Dmitri was not accompanied by a single subordinate, the shadows were convinced that this operation had no choice but to succeed.
however.
suffered unilaterally.
I couldn’t believe the sight of Roman Dmitri slaughtering the shadows even though I had personally experienced it.
‘… Based on testimonies from past battles, we factored in the idea that Roman Dmitri might be at most times stronger than him. That alone is an overreaction, but what the hell was that demonic appearance? Our abilities didn’t work at all, and we were overwhelmingly pushed back in a battle of strength.’
The operation was a failure.
The advantage of mobilizing Ecorche to take a break and attack with one-to-many surprises was meaningless.
at last.
defeated in a head-to-head confrontation.
In response to Roman Dmitri’s overwhelming force, the shadow made a quick decision.
‘Even though I mobilized demons, I couldn’t defeat them. Roman Dmitry is a more dangerous person than the world knows. We must inform the Empire of this fact. If even what we witnessed today is not Roman Dmitri’s strength, he will surely become a major stumbling block to the Kronos Empire’s plans.’
shadows.
They performed numerous missions for the Empire, and in the process dealt with enemies called strong.
Just once.
I’ve never had such a crushing defeat like this one.
The existence that uses the holy power was a person outside of the ranking, but I had no choice but to give up fighting the appearance of exerting powerful power against the darkness.
However, Roman Dmitry showed a completely different result.
It was not a natural enemy, and the situation was in their favor.
It was only a confrontation between power and power, but it was torn apart by overwhelming force that I couldn’t even dare to step over.
It was embarrassing.
Undoubtedly, even the top rankers of Cronus would not be able to overcome their combined efforts so overwhelmingly.
‘Roman Dmitri is a mysterious figure the more you know him. If His Majesty’s orders fall. We need to do everything in our power to assassinate Roman Dmitri.’
I ran with all my might.
I was thinking of opening up the distance and contacting the empire.
It was then.
Beetle.
body tilted
The moment the shadow recognized its own state, its vision drastically changed and it rolled to the ground.
The two legs that were healthy until just now.
it was cut out
The shadows scattered on the floor touched my heart before I could do anything.
snap.
‘… Did you already take care of everything?’
It was Roman Dmitry.
he caught up
The plan thus failed.
I tried to report what happened here to the empire, but the tail caught up.
however.
Roman Dmitri took out a magic communicator from his bosom and tossed it at the shadow.
“Contact the Empire. And report what happened here.”
* * *
Roman Dmitry.
His intentions were unknown.
There was a possibility that it was a trap, but as a shadow, it was necessary to contact the empire even if it was a risk.
connected communication.
OK.
[Did you deal with Roman Dmitri?]
Beyond the communicator.
I heard Baron Charlton’s voice.
The shadow looked up at Roman Dmitri and said.
“… The operation failed.”
[Failure. What the hell is that talking about?!]
“Baron Charlton. From now on, please forward my words to His Majesty the Emperor. Our judgment about Roman Dmitri is completely wrong. Eighteen demons were not able to inflict a single wound on Roman Dmitri, and even our ability to ignore physical attacks did not work. Roman Dmitry was hiding his power. Or maybe there was no need to show strength.”
information seen and heard.
Despite saying that, Roman Dmitri did not stop him.
Seeing him still looking down, the shadow hurriedly spoke.
“The past two years. Roman Dmitry’s growth was not normal. We thought we’d figured out his starting point, but Roman Dmitri might have some secrets we can’t handle. must be killed Before Roman Dmitri does something unpredictable, the Kronos Empire must step in and put an end to Roman Dmitri.”
The voice intensified.
His eyes widened as if to ask Roman Dmitri to kill him.
hereby.
Your role is over.
If a report like this goes up along with the mission failure, Emperor Cronus is absolutely not a person to stand by.
Moment.
The area beyond the communicator was stained with silence.
Was it because I was taken aback by the unexpected report?
A cold, subdued voice was heard from the communicator, which had not been heard for a while.
[Roman Dmitry. You are there now.]
