Episode 373 Demon World (2)
It is no exaggeration to say that the current situation is the worst crisis the world has ever faced, so people went into their homes, locked their doors, and waited for news of victory to come.
-It’s been over 40 hours since the assault force entered the front line, so why hasn’t there been any news yet?
-Isn’t it a bit strange that there isn’t a single real article? I think we’re all screwed.
-Let’s wait patiently. There are talented people fighting for their lives, so don’t be foolish.
-It’s not because I’m being unlucky, it’s because I’m worried. They say mud from the demon world has come up in front of our house.
-All the world’s absolutes have gathered, so there is no way they can be defeated. We just have to wait.
-No. There is no one. And the most important person.
-Ah, Hyeopje….
-ㄹㅇ If Baek Woo-jin was there, I wouldn’t have been anxious at all. Where did Baek Woo-jin go?
Even though the powerful, including the world’s absolute leaders, went to the front together, people trembled with anxiety about the demons.
It’s natural. Because beings called demons have a danger that cannot be compared to monsters of the same level.
While everyone was waiting with folded hands for news of victory to be delivered, a new article appeared.
Although it was not news of victory from the front, the people cheered even more than that.
-Sivaaaal! It’s up!
-Hyeopje has arrived!
-Hey! I believed in Baek Woo-jin!
-Is it real? Are you from Real?
-That’s really true. A photo of entering the dimensional gate also appeared.
-comfort.
-I heard Baek Woo-jin came. I’m falling asleep now.
-In front of Baek Woo-jin, the devil and the dick are all the same!
-Kahak! I want to be Baek Woo-jin just for one day. please!
Just one person. Only one more Baek Woo-jin was added, but the anxious people felt relieved as if they had already won.
**
“Tsk.”
Baek Woo-jin clicked his tongue in frustration.
‘The feeling doesn’t spread widely.’
The inside of the forest ahead was full of dark demonic energy, so I couldn’t express my energy properly. The detection range was only half of what it normally was.
‘It’s a bit frustrating.’
-This is because the magic land is in contact with the core.
Darkness turned the blade and pointed at the bubbling magic land.
-Unlike the magic land spread throughout Seoul, the magic land in the front was already connected to the demon world.
‘The quality of the demonic energy flowing inside is definitely different.’
-The demons only had two-thirds of their power when they came out to this world, but on this demon land, they can display all their abilities like in the demon world. Conversely, humans become weaker.
‘It’s a mess.’
Baek Woo-jin frowned. Fighting against already strong demons, and being on a land that was advantageous to the enemy, was no different from the worst situation.
None of the talented people who entered first were strong, but I thought it would be difficult to reach Beelzebub in this state.
Ugh!
As I headed towards the relay with my spirit wide open, I felt the presence of a monster in the forest on the left. The monsters must have sensed their scent and ran towards us at incredible speed.
Quaaaang!
The trees on the left broke like corn cans, and huge wild boars with their entire bodies burning red jumped out.
“Keuuuuung!”
The wild boars rushed at me, concentrating their energy on their large noses, as if they were going to push them away at once. It felt like a wall made of demonic energy was rushing towards me.
Slurp!
Baek Woo-jin pulled out his Seolyoung sword towards the rushing wild boars. With a light swing of the sword as if cutting through the wind, the monsters were split in half and fell to the ground just as they had come.
Coo coo.
Due to Lasadum’s aura spreading from the wounds, the wild boars were unable to regenerate their bodies and were scattered as gray ash.
“Uuuuuu….”
“As expected!”
Mu Young-gaek, who was trying to run away, stood blankly, and Moon Ju-young, who was about to draw his sword, nodded as if it was obvious.
“Let’s go this way.”
Baek Woo-jin left the narrow island and crossed the forest to quickly reach Junggye.
-A lot of people died.
‘Hmm…’
Just as the darkness said, the corpses and equipment of those with abilities were lying on the floor. He died either penetrating or protecting this place.
Ugh!
Baek Woo-jin frowned and turned around due to the sudden magic that appeared on his right.
“I didn’t know there were still humans left?”
A demon with one horn rose up from the dry tree. It seemed to have appeared after killing its presence using magic land.
“Moon Joo-young.”
Baek Woo-jin examined the demon’s magical energy and called Moon Ju-young.
“yes.”
“Looking at the demon, it is a mid-to-high level demon. “If you can’t handle that much on your own, go back.”
The original level of those demons was intermediate, but thanks to the power of this place, they possessed upper-middle level magical energy.
There won’t be any demon weaker than that guy in front of here, so if you can’t cut it down alone, it would be better to send it back here.
“That won’t happen.”
Moon Joo-young lowered her posture and then jumped up. In an instant, he dug into the tree and slashed his sword at the demon.
“You look like a slug!”
The demon disappeared like an illusion and appeared behind Moon Ju-young. Without any delay, he scratched Moon Joo-young’s back with his fingernails full of demonic energy.
“You mean?”
Moon Joo-young turned around without being embarrassed. As if he had expected it, he drew a curve with his sword and deflected the demon’s claws.
“joy!”
When the demon stepped back and spread his hands wide, demonic energy in the form of fingernails shot out from his fingers.
Taang!
Moon Joo-young climbed a tree as if performing a trick, avoided the demons, and then jumped toward them.
“You idiot!”
The demon’s fingernails grew long and thick like icicles on a cliff.
“I’ll leave just like that!”
“That’s what I’m going to say.”
A blue-black energy burned above Moon Ju-young’s outstretched sword body. The tangible energy broke the demon’s thick nails and split his chest.
“Kyaaaaaaaa!”
The demon screamed and tried to turn its back and run away, but Moon Joo-young rushed at him like a wild dog and cut off the demon’s head with his strong blade.
“This damned bastard…”
Moon Joo-young finished the story by popping the fallen demon’s head.
-Even though it was said to be a test, I wasn’t the least bit embarrassed by the fact that it ended easily by catching the enemy off guard. That guy also became a different person.
‘You’re not my escort for nothing.’
Baek Woo-jin nodded with satisfaction. Moon Joo-young is a prosecutor who has seen numerous battles and experienced moments of death by his side. If you don’t do that, it will be difficult.
“Following the matriarch’s instructions, I cut off the demon’s life. “The test is…”
“Of course I passed.”
“Well, it was really okay.”
“No spirit guest.”
He called out to Moo Young-gaek, who whistled at Moon Joo-young.
“Can you find the way back?”
“In this land, something magical has been created that is neither a barrier nor a true law. But you can’t fool my nose with that. “I sprayed incense so that I could escape at any time.”
“good. “Keep that in mind.”
“yep!”
The reason why Muyounggaek was brought in was to take out the wounded or those who could not fight. He seemed fully capable of fulfilling that role.
“This is the real start, so brace yourselves and follow along.”
Baek Woo-jin stepped on the Mansangbo and ran towards the broadcast, exuding a dark demonic energy.
‘There is no time to waste now.’
**
“Whoop!”
Jeok Yeon-hwa let out a rough breath as if she was going to collapse at any moment.
“Danju! “Are you okay?”
“don’t worry.”
“but!”
“It’s okay.” “I’ll take the front, so please take the other direction.”
I chewed my lip and glared at the black monsters that filled the front.
‘There is no end. ‘The end!’
Contrary to what was clearly stated, the number of monsters was too large. The bigger problem was that I couldn’t even approach the demons who created those demons.
“Are you okay? “You’re bluffing.”
Pyren, a red-eyed demon floating above the heads of the demons, curled the corner of his mouth.
“Your ignorant fists cannot reach even a single hair of my head. “You just get crushed to death like a bug on the floor.”
“Uh…”
Jeok Yeon-hwa just frowned and couldn’t reply. It was because, as that obnoxious demon said, he was in a difficult state.
‘I can’t help it. You have to pour it in here.’
I wanted to save the aura, but if I took any more time, it would be a loss. Taking a deep breath, he jumped forward and unleashed his newly learned sword.
Quang! Quaaaang!
The bodies of the monsters exploded like balloons due to the blow, which was as strong as fire but as flowing as water.
However, Jeok Yeon-hwa’s expression showed no composure.
‘As expected, aura is consumed quickly. ‘We have to finish it quickly.’
Myeonghwakwon is a powerful martial art that increases power and accuracy and allows for various changes, but it consumes a lot of stamina and aura. I had to kill the demon as quickly as possible.
Quaaaang!
Using the combo of the Myeonghwa Fist, I broke down the wall of monsters that filled the front.
‘Now!’
Jeok Yeon-hwa kicked the shoulder of the falling monster and jumped towards Pyren, who was floating in the air.
‘Great massacre!’
He unleashed the famous sword of the Myeonghwa Fist at Pyren’s heart. A massive fist loaded with a warrior’s mirror swung towards the guy’s heart.
“joy!”
Pyren snorted and rose into the air without defending himself.
‘I got caught!’
Jeok Yeon-hwa gritted her teeth and attacked the air with the energy contained in her left fist. Using that propulsion, he struck the Daemyungsal’s fist into the left upper body of the demon.
Whoops!
The demons urgently tried to defend themselves with demonic energy, but it was already too late. The energy of Daemingsal penetrated the guy’s magical energy and destroyed his upper body.
“Huh!”
As soon as Jeok Yeon-hwa landed on the ground, she let out a deep breath and clenched her fists until they bled.
“Damn it…”
Even though Pyran’s body exploded, he wasn’t happy at all.
‘It moved the heart.’
Pylan moved his heart to another place just before the deadly blow of the deadly weapon hit him. Its body was already starting to regenerate as if it were liquid.
“dare!”
Pylan’s red lips twisted up as his head grew again.
“dare! Me to the human subject! “My body!”
Pylan seemed to have lost his mind, and black veins stood out in his eyeballs.
“I’ll kill you once and for all!”
When Pylan put his hands together, a huge amount of magical energy stirred on the floor, and a shadow in the same shape as the gnome rose up.
Gooooooo!
All of the countless shadows shed terrible magical energy like the body of Pylan.
“Kill! “Step on the bugs you see in front of you!”
“Grrr.”
At Pylan’s gesture, shadows rose from the floor and ran screaming.
“Damn it!”
Jeok Yeon-hwa took a deep breath and rushed towards the shadows.
‘It’s not possible with the Wind Shindan. I have to stop it.’
It is true that the Wind God’s skill has improved a lot, but it is not enough to deal with the shadow of that demon. They had to stop it themselves.
Quaaaang!
My lungs felt like they were going to explode, but I held back and held out my fist.
Whoa!
I erased the shadows by linking the herbivorous works of famous paintings, but there was a big problem.
‘These guys…’
Just like Pylan, the shadows regenerate their bodies in an instant and fight back even when they are hit by a powerful force. It won’t end like this.
‘That person also had a fight like this…’
I remember. Baek Woo-jin had also fought a monster with this ability before. He cut down all of his enemies with a series of sword strokes.
‘I can do it too.’
Remembering Baek Woo-jin’s sword strike, he stretched out his fist. Breathing was reduced and muscle movement was minimized.
By reducing wasted auras and stamina, the attack surface was expanded, and the playback time of the shadows was slightly increased.
‘Huh!’
It felt like my muscles were going to break and my lungs would be torn apart, but I endured it. This is a cliff where you will die if you take just one step back. I had to fight for my life every moment.
‘now!’
Jeok Yeon-hwa, who was looking for an opening, poured out the eighteen Chosik of the Myeonghwa Fist like a single stream when shadows surrounded her on all sides.
Quaaaaa!
The red fist spread like the sun and melted all the shadows.
“What the hell!”
“Hwaaaap!”
Jeok Yeon-hwa jumped up with a roar and fired the last of the Myeong-hwa Fist’s Myeongryu Cannons at Pyren.
Hwaaaaa!
A wave of power, a combination of warrior spirit and strength, rushed towards Pyren’s whole body.
“uh?”
Myeongryupo’s blow sweeps over him. Just when he thought he had won, Pyren’s eyes flashed red.
Ugh!
As the shadow that bloomed from the man’s fingertips drew a huge arc, the fired Myeongryu cannon disappeared like the morning fog.
“What what….”
“Khahahahaha!”
Pyren covered his mouth with his long fingers and burst into laughter.
“Did you really think I had lost my mind?”
Pyren smiled ominously and lifted his chin.
“That’s stupid. I was just playing. “Before and now.”
“Ah…”
He was right. The anger blooming in his black eyes had turned into a madness of fun.
Pudddeuk!
With a strange sound, another pair of wings protruded from Pyren’s back.
“How can humans be so stupid?”
“Are you hiding your power?”
“I played with the right amount of force. “It’s so fun to see your overwhelming strength when you think you can win.”
“Ah…”
Jeok Yeon-hwa swallowed dry saliva and stepped back. Its magical power has become more than twice as large as before. It felt like my body was being crushed by the thick demonic energy.
“okay. That look. “That expression is so fun that I can’t stop doing it!”
Pyrene was tearing his mouth open and wandering like a clown.
“It’s a face that makes it worthwhile to come this far.”
“Ugh!”
The shadows that were barely erased have already finished regenerating, and the demon’s energy is gradually increasing. There was no way.
“You’ve had enough fun, so leave.”
Pyrene raised his hand. The surrounding shadows gathered into his grasp, condensing an enormous amount of magical energy.
‘Ah…’
Jeok Yeon-hwa trembled with her closed hands. The energy contained in that magical energy was beyond what he could do with his own nothingness.
“Go away!”
“Ugh!”
Pyren stuck out his black tongue and shot out a sphere of magic energy. I felt like my heart would explode from that huge wave.
‘it’s over.’
I couldn’t think of a way to stop the approaching black energy. Even if you detonate all the auras you have, it won’t even be able to become a shield.
‘There is no way…’
Jeok Yeon-hwa closed her eyes and lowered her head. At this moment when death was just around the corner, the only thing I thought about was neither my brother nor my father. Baek Woo-jin is not here.
The person I first met in the dungeon. He who fights to save other worlds.
I wouldn’t have given up. Even at this moment, he must be fighting to find a way.
‘It’s a disgrace.’
When I thought about it like that, I was so embarrassed that I couldn’t bear it.
‘You can’t give up like this.’
I raised my head, biting my lip until the red lotus flower began to bleed. He raised his auror as if his heart was about to burst and punched at the magic sphere.
Not herbivorous or anything.
It was just a swing, but it countered the sphere of demonic energy by creating a wave stronger and more beautiful than ever before.
However, despite pouring all of his aura and stamina, Pyren’s magic energy was coming through his power.
“Wow!”
I vomited blood due to internal injuries, but it didn’t stop. I had to protect this place and hold on for one more second to prevent those demons from crossing over to the relay.
“I don’t like struggling.”
Pyrene smiled coldly and pushed his hand away. The sphere of magic energy trembled as if it would explode, creating even stronger pressure.
Kyaaaaa!
The blow was cut off and the blazing sphere of demonic energy came in front of my eyes.
‘I’m done. Now I
have no regrets because I poured everything I had into it. But I didn’t close my eyes. He planned to watch his final days as a warrior.
“Great posture.”
The moment I prepared to die, I heard a low voice that did not suit this situation.
Crumbling!
Behind that calm voice, a jet-black thunderbolt that split the demon energy struck.
The magic energy fired by Pyren splits and the magic soil that colors the floor melts.
Coo coo coo coo.
A man wearing a black coat steps down into the center of a magnificent thunderstorm.
Quaaaaa!
He drew his sword. The Black Sea, which rose with a magnificent sword, erased all of Pyren’s shadows.
“A warrior never bows his head in front of an enemy.”
The man whom I wanted to see more than anyone else looked at me and smiled.
“Thank you for your hard work. Jeok Yeon-hwa.”
