Chapter 949,
Chapter 234. To Hell (9)
Originally, Murakan and the others were moving separately from Jin to find Biseps.
And Biseps sent a reconnaissance party to Dokma Castle to check the movements of Keliac and Layla before moving to the solar furnace.
Of course, since Murakan moved to find the records of Biseps with Valeria’s record magic, he followed the traces of the Biseps reconnaissance party that he stumbled upon in the process and reached the Dokma Castle.
[What is it, these bastards have their snouts clogged? You asked what were you doing here, Mr. Murakan.]
[It’s a bit strange. Hmm I don’t know what to do. Should I just kill them all?]
[Oh our immortality comes out hard. After all, is it immortal and inevitable?]
[You bastard… I don’t want to be a laughing stock even to my enemies. Hmmm! Anyway, Valeria. what do you think about it? You seem to be the smartest here, so judge for yourself.]
As Valeria was about to answer, a voice came from below.
Help me!
It was Beradin.
As the family head of Ziffle, he was infinitely calm and full of dignity. He was waving wildly like a boy playing with Jin and shouting for help with an impudent face.
Valeria’s eyes widened.
It wasn’t because of Veradin’s words and actions that she was surprised. She was surprised by herself. As soon as Beradin asked for help, he thought to himself, ‘I have to’.
Since the slaughter of the Gray Owl Mercenary Corps, the two letters “Zipple” have been Valeria’s unfading enemy ever since.
But now, Valeria was thinking of Jin’s feelings before her own revenge.
Jin’s desire to protect the person he cares about outweighed his desire for revenge.
‘Looking back, I got along well with the noisy Sandra Ziple at some point… I’ve become very dull.’
But I didn’t hate that fact.
He still has no plans to give up his revenge on Zipple. However, if there were people among the ziplines who wanted Jin to save them, they could accept a few of them. Needless to say, if Jin was the person he cared so much for.
Now, to Valeria, Jin was that much of a precious person.
“Did you hear? Murakan.”
[Did you hear? Indestructible.]
[I heard… Ha really.]
[What we immortals do is simple. You protect the historian and Beradin while I kill Kelliac and the punks. Apparently, it seems that Beradin is not fighting properly. And if you feel like Beradin is going to stab you in the back, then just shock.]
“No, even then, don’t kill, just subdue. Whatever the reason, if Beradin dies, Jin will suffer.”
[Did you hear? A natural enemy.]
[I heard the damn thing!]
Whoa!
Murakan spread his two pairs of wings and gathered his breath. As soon as the breath was released, the huge chains of flame that dyed the sky red broke and the road opened in an instant.
‘Celiac’s friend’s flames… cut off so easily!?’
Not only the chain of flames, but also Ragal’s miasma nearby were swept away by Murakan’s breath and vanished.
After Jin climbed Changseong.
Murakan is literally able to use ‘the same’ power as he did in his prime. It’s not that there are no side effects because of the damaged heart, but there was Valeria on the battlefield, so there was nothing serious.
[Hey Kellyac Ziple. Come to think of it, this is the first time I’ve been with you since the Sword Emperor’s Crusade. At that time, you dared to threaten Solderlet’s contractor.]
“Murakan…”
Keliac’s forehead twitched. It was the first time Ragal had seen Keliac show such emotion.
[Now, at that time, the kid you couldn’t finish has entered the realm of giants that even you couldn’t reach, and this body has regained all of its former power. In a word, it means that you are behind.]
“My son is lucky. It looks like you got here by accident… is that right?”
[What’s that important?]
“Whoa, yeah… It can’t just be a coincidence. Is it the influence of those who transcended their fate?”
Kelliac shrugged.
He thought that it was no coincidence that Murakan came to rescue Veradin, who was in desperate need.
Even if it looks like a coincidence, it is certain that the source must be the result of the ‘power of existence’ that Jin possesses.
‘Maybe I didn’t even realize it. The fact that sometimes the whole world can move to reflect one’s will…’
That made Kelliac feel bad.
In the future, dealing with Jin, you don’t know when these uncountable things will happen again.
“Ragal Leila. You guys go after Beradin and the living golem. Even if things go wrong, shouldn’t we try to make things right?”
“Okay, buddy.”
As Ragal tried to move, a black chain suddenly formed behind them. The aura that had already spread soundlessly spread a curtain in all directions.
[Ah, wait a minute. This body has never allowed it, but where are you going? Well, the demons don’t know me very well, so I can’t have such a concept.]
See-!
Layla tore through the aura curtain and stabbed Murakan with her sword. Leyla didn’t fire her sword to carry out Kelliac’s orders. She wanted to put an end to Murakan right here and now.
[Come to think of it, you only have the intent to kill me. It’s probably Leila Belgasium, but is it because of revenge against her brother?]
Jjaeong! Murakan hit Layla, who rushed in with his head, with his wings. Layla bounced back near Keliac and straightened up.
“…I can’t follow the Lord’s opinion this time. I have to fight that black dragon. You are the one who was directly involved in killing my older brother.”
[I misunderstood. I was almost out of the battle with Faelito from the beginning. Even though I was nearby when Jin killed him at the end. And for Paellito, death would have been closer to salvation.]
“Shut up… If you guys hadn’t killed my brother, my brother could have come back.”
[You’re such a foolish younger brother. what i don’t know If you want to follow Paellito like that, I won’t stop you. After all, under Kelliac, all you have to do is do harm to the world. And don’t you see? Who is one of the real culprits who made your brother like that?]
“Kuh!”
While talking, Murakan’s black chain continued to beat Layla. Layla had completely knocked out most of the Black Chains, but seemed unable to afford to approach Murakan again.
Kelliac was doing the math.
Is it possible to deal with Murakan or kill him with all the power in Dokma Castle?
‘It’s difficult to kill Murakan now. I, too, haven’t been fully fused yet, and it’s a shame to fully open the powers of Layla and Ragal, who have been weakened by brainwashing. For now, I’ll have to break Layla’s consciousness at the right time.’
For Kelliac’s own safety, the best move was to use all of Poison Castle’s power as a shield to buy time and get out.
But thinking about the future, I had to somehow hurt Murakan now. even if it gets a bit overwhelming.
It was visible in Kelliac’s eyes.
The cracks in Murakan’s heart felt vivid, as if they weren’t covered by scales, flesh, and bones. If that heart could be set on fire even once, Murakan wouldn’t have much to hold on to his ankles in the future.
Chii profit…!
The two lines of black chains that fell on Keliac continued to disappear in the fire. Kelliac then applied a flame shield to Layla as well, activating the Mystic Eye.
When Blue’s Mystic Eye was opened, blue flames poured down like a shower everywhere Kelliac’s gaze reached.
[Ho-oh, melt the black chain?]
“You must be hurt and go home, Murakan. Even one variable, Gene Runkandel, is annoying enough.”
Murakan recognized Keliac’s vision and his insight at once.
[Keuk keuk keug It looks like there’s a scar on my heart. Can you stab me knowing that? It looks like he inherited Shinu’s personality, so that’s why he’s so confident?]
The next moment, Murakan suddenly opened his chest wide.
The scales on the chest were scattered with aura, revealing a dark, glowing heart. The black heart that looked like ore was pounding.
[In order to repay the humiliation of the Geomhwang Temple, I will reveal my weakness and fight. Pierce this heart with whatever means you can. Even if I get stabbed just once, I won’t be able to recover.]
It was a lie.
As long as his heart doesn’t suffer the same amount of damage from Temar a thousand years ago, Murakan can recover at any time. Also, it wasn’t just to humiliate Kelliac that he dared to show his heart.
Now Murakan was following Jin.
It is to reproduce the appearance that Jin often bluffed to lead the fight to his advantage. After making Kelliac focus on his heart, he intended to find a gap instead.
That also meant that even Murakan, who had regained his former strength, could not easily see the power of Keliac Ziple.
‘It’s amazing that you’ve gained godhood. Even though I’ve never touched Changseong as a human, I’m spreading almost the same aura as him, so if I didn’t have a historian who could control my side effects, I’d have to take only Beradin and retreat somehow. It might have been difficult to take care of even Belladin.’
Ssik Murakan smiled.
[Come in, Kelliac Ziple.]
Kelliac’s staff caught fire again. Then, the shape of the fireball that filled the sky changed like thousands of spears. All of those spears were aimed at Murakan.
At the same time, Murakan unfolded the True Darkness. The battlefield was instantly engulfed in darkness and flames, and Layla and Ragal had to grit their teeth and endure the pressure alone.
Sharp auras and flame spears that soared from the Dark Coming began to rush into each other, crossing each other.
As expected, Kelliak dropped his spear mainly on Murakan’s heart, and Murakan scratched Kelliac’s nerves by striking the spears close to the end.
Soon, as a single flame spear was about to pierce Murakan’s heart, Murakan scattered with aura, dodged the spear, and in an instant formed a body behind Keliac and vomited his breath.
[After this body regains strength, it’s not that bad as a first opponent, Kelliac. Let’s play to our heart’s content.]
* * *
In the middle of the battle between Murakan and Kelliac, that time.
Elona was preparing to head to Hell. The signal of Hrotty triggered by Betty reached Elona.
“I have to go find the family head. If there is any trouble with the patriarch, I will risk my life to kill him.”
Elona’s chilly voice made Ziffle’s leaders unable to stop her.
