< Episode 70: Demon (1) >
[All Nobu can see from him is a throne stained with blood.]
[Blood-stained throne?]
Isn’t the throne a symbolic seat where a monarch such as a king emperor or feudal lord sits?
What does it mean that humans who are demons themselves are related to the throne?
No more accurately it was a throne stained with blood.
‘Stained in blood…’
It was significant that the throne the seat that symbolized the pinnacle was stained with blood.
There will be a lot of bloody competition to get that seat.
There was still an ambiguous sense of timing but these words clearly narrowed the scope.
‘Jeong (紂) is not that old man.’
How could the old man who was completely corrupted by the lust of love and was on the verge of death grant his wish?
No how can a human being listen to one’s wishes in the first place?
Although he was full of doubts this man was no different from a good man.
There was no way he was talking nonsense.
[Kang Sang (姜尙). Yes I hope you are not wrong.]
So the golden-haired nine-tailed fox left the country hiding himself after his death and many years passed.
He initially found the man in the prophecy simply by watching.
But such a person did not appear.
He thought that the bastard might have deceived him so he took out his anger on all kinds of Taoists.
Then he changed his mind.
If he can’t find it he makes it himself.
Accordingly the golden-haired nine-tailed fox changed its methods and as if for fun corrupted the beings called monarchs one by one.
This was true not only for the feudal lords of the central plains but also for all nearby countries such as Dongyi and Dongyeong.
Still no one gave him what he wanted.
He simply went astray and ended up destroying the nation.
‘Ma…the human being he is.’
If you just read this guy’s memories he is definitely close to evil or a demon.
However this guy had nothing to do with the throne.
So is he just a naturally evil person?
If you look through his memories to the end you will be able to find out how this evil tendency came from.
The golden-haired nine-tailed fox delved into the depths of Mo Kyung-un’s mind.
-Srrrrr!
Something quite interesting flowed into the stream.
‘Hoo. Look at this.’
Was the raccoon guy here?
He went around grandly calling himself a king and all but I never thought he would be locked up in a place like this.
But did this guy absorb the magic power of the raccoon guy?
A fragment of memory is literally like a fragment.
That’s why it looks like it’s suddenly cut off but no matter how you look at it it looks like the raccoon guy has absorbed part of his magic power from this guy.
‘what?’
How did a human absorb the energy of a youkai or an imamangryang?
As I dug deeper into his memories I realized that this guy was even absorbing the energy of the dead.
How is this possible?
In the first place living beings could not coexist with the energy of the dead.
The more I look at this guy’s memories the more surprising things I see one by one.
‘Is this really a human being?’
As I was puzzled I went back a long way and saw Mok Gyeong-un’s dead grandfather.
For the first time I felt intense anger.
It seems that at this point the malice that had been barely suppressed came out.
However since this was also something that had been repressed it seemed that the more fundamental part could only be known by looking at the fragments of the memories that preceded it.
‘Show me. Your origin…’
The golden-haired nine-tailed fox delved into Mok Gyeong-un’s memories.
However while digging I came across a huge wall blocking the entire space in the dark.
‘Huh?’
The presence of this wall in mental memory meant that something was artificially blocking it.
The golden haired nine-tailed fox saw this and became interested.
Why on earth did I block out my previous memories?
I don’t know if he did it himself or if it was banned by someone else.
‘Show me.’
The golden haired nine-tailed fox tried to force its way through that wall of memory.
For a woman who has lived for thousands of years this was not such a difficult task.
It was the moment when the wall of memory was being torn down.
-Gooooooooo!
At that moment a violent and evil energy began to rush out from within the cracked and crumbling wall of memories.
‘Look at this?’
How is it that when I try to break through a blocked memory this strange energy comes out?
Is this guy really human?
This ferocious energy was trying to stop her from infiltrating her mind.
It felt like it was a living thing inside this thing.
‘okay. Let’s see who wins.’
The golden haired nine-tailed fox further increased its power.
If you’re going to block yourself like this I guess there’s something you don’t want to see but do you think you can stop it like this?
-Shhhh!
Although it was inside her mind the golden-haired nine-tailed fox soon appeared in her original form.
She became a golden fox with nine tails reaching as high as seven feet and her appearance was majestic befitting a great spirit beast who received the titles of demon and king.
When she manifested as her true self and opened her mouth her vast magical power came together and created her gigantic sphere.
-Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu!
It was so dazzling in the darkness.
-Try blocking it once.
-Paaaaaaaaa! Kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa!
The sphere of magical power instantly hit the wall of memories.
A series of strong explosions occurred and the wall the sphere of magical power hit collapsed creating a huge hole.
Without missing this the golden haired nine-tailed fox entered the hole.
A hole opened in her blocked memory.
Now you can see what kind of memory fragments you will see.
At that time a strange scene began to appear in the flowing stream.
that
– Quad deud deuk!
It was a sight where the otherwise clear sky was distorted.
Through the gap in the distorted crack chunks of black flame were falling like lava from an exploding volcano rising upward and then falling to the ground.
‘!!!!!’
What on earth is this?
Is there a scene like this in every single human’s memory?
At that time another piece came in.
-Srurr!
A black flame was burning brightly in the huge pit and someone was seen looking at it with a look of awe and then fell face down.
That someone was none other than this guy’s murdered grandfather.
Why on earth does that old man look like that at the black flame?
I’m wondering
‘what?’
The golden haired nine-tailed fox’s golden eyes trembled violently.
I felt a gaze in that black flame.
Wasn’t it just a spark?
No in the first place the ominous and pure energy flowing from that black flame was not something that existed in royalties.
It was difficult to define it with any words such as brutality brutality and evil.
It’s like existence itself…
-Shudder!
It was right then.
The gaze that was felt in the black flames met the eyes of the golden-haired nine-tailed fox.
‘uh?’
This was a memory.
But how can it look at itself?
He could be said to be close to a third mental body that simply examines memories.
It was a moment when I felt strange in an incomprehensible situation.
[scram.]
A voice that resonates with the golden haired nine-tailed fox.
At the same time black flames suddenly spread in all directions instantly covering the dark space where the fragments of memories had been unfolding.
-Rrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!
At that moment the golden haired nine-tailed fox could not hide his embarrassment.
This heat must have been a fragment of memory but it felt like it had become reality.
And black flames were slowly surrounding him.
He looked at the golden-haired nine-tailed fox and opened his mouth.
-What on earth are you? How can something as heterogeneous as you exist within a mere human being?
She thought that this being was actually alive inside this guy not just dormant in a memory.
Otherwise it would not have been able to have such an impact even on the mental world.
There was no response to her words.
-Rarrrrrrrrrr!
Her black flames were just trying to consume the space itself and even surround her.
Then the golden-haired nine-tailed fox roared at her and opened her magic power.
-Do you think you can do anything to me?
Her golden magic power which was almost as brilliant as it was gushed out from her as she transformed into her true self.
That golden spirit soon collided with the black flame and conflicted.
-Chaaaaaa!
Her golden power which had reached its peak strongly pushed away the black flames that were trying to engulf her showing off the dignity of a Great Spiritual Beast called the Six Demons.
Although she was said to have been weakened by the seal she could not even withstand King Assassin’s King Guhwan Cheongu (拘貛天狗) but the golden-haired nine-tailed fox was different.
Rather she pushed away the black flames trying to catch a glimpse of fragments of her memories.
-I think you dare to be my opponent for a subject that is only trapped within a human being!
As the golden-haired nine-tailed fox further increased her magical power her black flames fluctuated.
The corners of her mouth went up when she turned into her real self.
I don’t know what’s inside this guy but do you think it could be for someone who has accumulated magical powers for thousands of years since the ancient times?
Let me know what it is right now…..
-Poof!
At that very moment the Golden Fox’s golden eyes trembled.
This wasn’t because of the battle going on inside her mind.
Before she knew it her mind was split in two and she was seeing both her memories and reality at the same time.
In her reality the golden-haired nine-tailed fox was holding her hands on the top of her neck as she entered her mind.
however
“you….”
Mok Kyung-yun who should not be able to move because her mind was suppressed moved.
She only moved once but the stimulation there was so intense that she couldn’t help but be distracted.
The golden-haired nine-tailed fox looked at her neck Kyeong-un’s face.
‘This…’
Mok Gyeong-un’s dim pupils whose pupils had been dilated came back to life.
But along with that vitality something changed.
The eyes were all black like a black ogre eye and their eyes had a ferocity like black flames.
‘Did you the one trapped in the wall of memories take control of that body?’
So the idea is to stimulate the body of reality and send it out.
She felt like she was being manipulated like that….
-Park!
“Ha!”
At that moment Mo Kyung-un’s lower body moved roughly.
At the same time the golden-haired nine-tailed fox let out a chant without realizing it.
The golden-haired nine-tailed fox glared at Mo Kyung-un with a trembling sound.
“Haa…haa…you….”
-Park!
“Huh.”
I felt like I was going to be distracted by the excitement caused by Mo Kyung-un’s one movement of the waist.
Perhaps thanks to this the black flame that was being pushed out by the golden force in her mind suddenly became stronger.
The golden haired nine-tailed fox’s golden eyes trembled.
The disguise had already been removed and he had returned to his original form but it was not his original self to show such rough movements against himself.
It is the ferocious and vicious self that was in that black flame.
-widely!
In response she tried to push Mo Kyung-un’s body away.
You might not know if it’s just a simple contact but if you stimulate it roughly like this your mind will become more distracted and in a power battle with the black flame…
-Park!
“evil!”
At that moment the golden haired nine-tailed fox’s slender back was tilted back like a bow.
Her head was tilted back and her breathing became heavy.
‘What is this?’
-Sssssss!
Because of the power struggle and exciting stimulation in her mind before she knew it her own magical energy was being absorbed into Mo Kyung-un’s hand that was clutching her breast.
At the same time the black flame within his mind not only revived but also grew bigger and pushed the golden magic power forward.
‘…It’s at a disadvantage like this.’
She absorbed mental stimulation and pressured her in three directions so that she couldn’t let down her guard so no matter how much she was it was bound to be difficult to deal with.
The speed at which her magical power was absorbed was also getting faster.
In the end she decided that looking at her immediate fundamental memories was unreasonable.
hereto
-Srurr!
She assimilated out of her mental body which she had entered.
She grabbed both of Mok Kyung-un’s cheeks and then pulled them up and kissed them.
Her tongues gently intertwined with each other and her magical energy spread through Mo Kyung-un’s mouth and into her head and entire body.
Then
-Sssss.
Soon Mo Gyeong-un’s eyes which had been stained as black as obsidian returned to their original state.
‘!?’
Mok Gyeong-un came to his senses and frowned.
That was because he had become one with the golden haired nine-tailed fox.
She didn’t even know he was kissing her mouth.
-Park!
Mu Qingyun forcibly removed it.
Then the golden-haired nine-tailed fox flicked her tongue as if savoring her lips and said with a big smile.
“Have you come to your senses?”
“self?”
“We’re having a blast like this so it’s okay to call us names like that. Why else would we call it something else?”
-closely!
Mok Gyeong-un ignored her words and tried to pull her body away.
But she couldn’t because she was holding herself up with her legs.
He tried to raise her magical energy but she clung to him even more and whispered a meaningful voice into Mok Gyeong-un’s ear.
“I thought about calling you Jeong but that doesn’t suit you either.”
Mo Kyung-un’s eyes became sharp.
Either way she hugged Mo Kyung-un tightly and said
“I don’t know about the throne but you might just be the demon I’ve been looking for. iced coffee! okay. “The title that really suits you is Demon.”
