< Episode 86: Half Man, Half Monster (1) >
“I’ll tell you!” “I’ll say anything so please stop!”
Guyangso the head of the Guyang family is horrified when her arm is in danger of being ripped off and asks for a favor.
Seeing him like that Lee Gwang a middle-aged man with scars urged him.
“Elder!”
Gu Yang Shao’s actions now were tantamount to surrendering to the enemy.
Unlike Ouyang So who was brought in as an invitation to the organization (招聘) this was unacceptable to him as he had been a member of the organization for a long time.
“You must not give in!”
Hearing his cries Ouyang So stood and shouted holding on to his dislocated shoulder.
“Are you going to tell me it’s not your arm like it’s someone else’s business?”
For a martial artist not only the Danjeon but also all limbs are important.
Even if just one of them was lost the balance would be disrupted and inaction would be significantly lowered.
That’s why Ouyangshao tried to avoid having his arm pulled out even if it meant using all his might.
‘I haven’t been able to win against that guy yet and I haven’t even reached the point of complete destruction but I can’t lose an arm.’
Neither the match with Dan In-hae nor the wish to end with poison were achieved.
Ouyang So who had many wishes had a strong attachment to himself so he had no choice but to value himself rather than the organization.
“I’ll tell you everything I know so please stop.”
“If you had been so obedient from the beginning you wouldn’t have gotten hurt.”
“I won’t be arrogant. hani….”
Ouyang Xiao did not continue his conversation and looked at Mo Qingyun’s hand.
It was pathetic as if he was asking me to please let him go.
‘That old man Guyangso!’
Lee Gwang thought it wouldn’t work.
Because he was older and more experienced he thought he would never surrender to the enemy.
However he was not originally a member of the organization and perhaps because he was invited he did not expect that his attachment to himself would be so great.
As a result Lee Gwang ultimately had to make an extreme choice.
‘Three violent swords!’
Lee Gwang stabbed in a triangle shape with the sword.
Then he saw three streams of burnt sword steel extend from the edge of his sword and rush towards Mo Qingyun.
-Chachchach!
What the two rushing streams of Tangeomgang were aiming for was Mogyeongun’s head and heart.
And the remaining ray of Tangeomgang’s trajectory was aimed at Ouyangshao’s head.
‘no?’
Gu Yang Xiao’s expression was distorted as he turned his head at the force of the flying Tangeom River.
Is he even risking his own life to keep his mouth shut?
Although it was the right choice for Lee Gwang it was absurd that they aimed for his life without the slightest hesitation.
-Sigh!
At that time Mo Kyung-yun stretched out his hand toward the flying beam of light from the Tan Sword River.
Then a wave of water appeared in the air.
It was the trick of Lee Gi-jin-gyeong (移氣眞經) which deflects the opponent’s power.
-Papapang!
The tangeomgang that hit the waves bent and bounced in different directions.
-Kwakwauk!
Thanks to this only the surrounding buildings were destroyed.
Mok Gyeong-un who blocked Tangeom River’s herbivory so easily looked at Lee Gwang and said.
“As expected I think we’ll have to talk after making a hole in the ship.”
‘Damn it!’
Lee Gwang’s complexion suddenly darkened.
After all it was impossible to deal with a master of the level of a great master who had reached the level of the Six Heavens with pure strength alone.
What on earth is that guy?
What did he do to become so strong that he reached such an absurd level in less than half a year?
Has something like this ever happened throughout the history of Murim?
The years I spent learning martial arts felt like they were in vain.
-closely!
Lee Gwang bit his lip and looked at his sword on the floor.
That black charred sword was given to me by him.
Suddenly I remembered the first and last time I knew him.
* * *
A place surrounded by darkness.
There was no light except where he was lying down so he couldn’t even see his face.
Then a voice came to his ear.
[He is the son of a dead exotic right?]
It was a voice that sounded like something was scratching.
However I answered without worrying about this.
[Yes.]
[Your father who was only in another world never knew his true identity until the moment of his death.]
[I know.]
[But why do you think I asked to see you?]
[I don’t know.]
[Did you swear that you would continue your father’s mission and sacrifice your life for the throne?]
[yes.]
[Loyalty that lasts from generation to generation. Even if I don’t live for a hundred years I like this about being human.]
[yes?]
[It’s done. I’m just talking to myself.]
-Poof!
As soon as he finished saying those words something fell and stuck on the floor in front of Lee Gwang.
It was a black sword that looked like it had been charred.
Although it was a rough sword without any brilliance Lee Gwang was captivated by the strange energy felt by the sword.
[What is this…?]
[It is a special gift to you.]
[Special gift?]
[okay. Very special. What do you think it’s made of?]
[…I don’t know.]
[He said he learned sword fighting from his father but his knowledge is lower than expected.]
He responded slightly moved by those words.
[Is it made of black iron?]
[It is not made with black iron or permanent iron. If it had been like that it could have been easily refined.]
[What do you do?]
[Didn’t I tell you to guess?]
Hearing his words young Lee Gwang hesitated and placed his hand on the blade of his sword.
My father placed great importance on interaction with the sword.
That’s why he wanted to touch the sword and feel for himself what it contained.
Lee Gwang touches the blade and soon
-Okay!
His hand was cut.
The blade itself looked rough except for the charred tip but surprisingly it was sharp enough to cut even though it wasn’t even drawn.
But the moment the blood touches the sword
-Purrrrr!
The blade trembled violently like something alive.
At the same time I felt a strange energy through the part that was touching my palm.
It was incredible brutality.
-Kwaaaaa!
At that moment Lee Gwang was so surprised that he took his palm off the sword and stabbed him in the buttocks.
‘What is this?’
What was that just now?
For a moment I saw something too vivid to be considered an illusion.
It looked like something was roaring but it wasn’t a wild animal like a tiger or bear.
It’s similar to
[dragon?]
As soon as the words were out the sound of clapping hands was heard.
-Clap clap!
At the same time his voice was heard.
[Quite a bit. I didn’t have high expectations but I was able to relate to the remnants of the theme of the baby song.]
[What on earth is this?]
[Rejoice. You have obtained a black sword made from the scales of a spirit beast that is infinitely closer to a divine beast.]
[receipt?]
[okay. That’s not the demon king. If I say it like that it won’t make sense. okay. It is made from the scales of a dragon that is thousands of years old.]
Lee Gwang looked skeptical at his words.
He had heard from his father that there was someone in the organization dealing with imamangryang but he had no idea it was him.
But is it true that dragons actually exist?
Although I have seen some imaemangyangs wasn’t the dragon just an imaginary spirit creature that only existed in legends?
He said looking puzzled.
[Treat it very much. It will be a great help to you in your most desperate moments.]
* * *
‘The most desperate moment….’
Lee Gwang who was staring at the black sword immediately stretched out his hand towards it.
Then due to the true energy the sword floated and flew towards him.
-widely!
Lee Gwang who was holding onto the black sword soldier looked at his Mok Gyeong-un with somewhat tense eyes.
In response Mo Qingyun took his hand off Ouyang Xiao’s wrist which was bent in the opposite direction and pushed him aside.
“Ugh.”
Then he walked towards him and said:
“Thank goodness.”
“….”
“Deep down I just hoped you wouldn’t give in. “No matter how much they offered me a chance to save my life I wanted to repay my debt in a reasonable amount.”
“As expected the judgment at that time was right.”
“What?”
“You are the one who must be killed.”
In less than half a year a young boy who had never learned martial arts emerged as a master at the level of a great master.
This guy is too dangerous.
Six thousand or even more than the prophecy he seeks.
Mok Kyung-un said with a sigh and a smile.
“Then you should have killed him then.”
-Sureuk!
As soon as he finished speaking Mo Kyung-un’s divine form blurred and disappeared.
It was Lee Gwang who recognized the fact that he was moving at ultra-high speed but he did not take the trouble to find Mok Gyeong-un.
Instead he immediately held the black sword upside down and then
-Poof!
‘!?’
At that moment Mok Kyung-un stopped in front of him.
Then he tilted his head and spoke as if he couldn’t understand.
“It’s a bland conclusion. “Are you saying you’re going to silence him even if it means committing suicide?”
“Off.”
Lee Gwang is groaning in pain.
He did something unexpected and unexpected.
It was his own black sword plunged into the heart of his own chest.
By all accounts this was an act of suicide.
“Ahhhh.”
Mok Gyeong-un could not hide his disappointment at his cruelty.
After causing him enough pain he tried to make him open his mouth.
But who would have known that rather than giving in to power and opening his mouth he would choose suicide?
-Park!
Mo Kyung-un stumbled and grabbed his head as he was about to fall backwards.
And then he said.
“But I can’t let you die gracefully. “I don’t know anything else but I need to hear these two things from you.”
“Off.”
“If you tell me two things I will let you go. “Who is the ghost sword…”
-Shudder!
For a moment Mo Kyung-yun frowned.
As expected Lee Gwang’s eyes suddenly turned white and became white-eyed.
But the changes did not end there.
-bulge! Bulging!
Before he knew it rough scales were appearing on the skin of his neck and face.
It resembled the scales of a snake.
‘!?’
what? What is this bizarre change?
I was puzzled but Lee Kwang’s teeth suddenly became sharper and his energy changed.
This energy was not internal energy.
The true energy was changing into magical power.
‘no way?’
Mu Qingyun looked at the black sword stabbed into his chest.
Mok Gyeong-un grabbed the sword soldier just in case.
At that moment the ferocious nature exploded and it strongly rejected Mu Qingyun and pushed him away.
-Paang!
Mo Gyeong-un’s new model which rose slightly in the air landed about eight paces away.
Mok Gyeong-un who had been pushed out looked at Lee Gwang with narrowed eyes.
Mok Gyeong-un who opened his ghost eyes could see the explosively increasing magical power behind Lee Gwang taking shape.
How high a level of magical power is it that its energy even takes on a form?
-Gooooooo!
Black horns that stand out like deer and flaming red back feathers.
A large body with long scales like a snake.
It was a dragon a legendary creature seen only in books.
Mok Kyung-un’s lips twitched at the sight.
“This… there is a hidden trick.”
