Chapter 44 Participation in the War (2)
Once.
The people of the political faction Murim said.
“There is always a Heavenly Demon at the head of the Demonic Cult. If he could block his attack even once, he would be able to stop the Demonic Cult’s offensive that comes like a wave, but since that is impossible, there is no hope for the rightist faction. The people of the political faction Murim must remember. The Heavenly Demon is invincible, and facing him head-on is suicide.”
Moorim unification.
Baek Joong-hyeok led the Demonic Cult from the front.
The first thing they did was sword-to-sword with the enemy, and along the path Baek Jung-hyeok created, the Demonic Cult members ran amok.
people asked
why.
Are you taking on the most dangerous role?
The reason was the same then and now.
‘The strongest person should completely break the morale of the enemies in the forefront.’
In a fight, momentum is important.
Just as he rose to an unapproachable position by defeating a child bigger than himself in a dark cave, Baek Joong-hyeok knew how important it was to gain momentum in life.
The role of the strong is not to wait for the right time in the rear.
Indeed, if you had enough force to not back down even in the face of countless enemies, the only way to win was to actively use your force.
as soon as.
like now.
Awesome!
“Aagh!”
The soldier’s arm was blown off by Roman’s attack.
The screaming soldier tried to run away, but Roman immediately followed and cut his throat.
Pooh.
Blood was splattered.
Roman threw himself at the soldiers forming the wall in front of him while receiving the bloody rain from the sky.
It was in an instant that the solid-looking formation collapsed.
Roman’s presence appeared like a lightning bolt in the dry sky, and the soldiers stabbed their spears all at once with frightened faces.
however.
Caang!
Chae Chae Chae!
The attack didn’t work.
Roman parried away all the attacks aimed at him, then took a step forward and cut their heads.
It was a massacre.
No other words could describe it.
Even when dealing with dozens of soldiers alone, Roman did not retreat an inch, rather overpowering the opponent and clearing out the enemies in front of him one by one.
The soldiers following him were taken aback.
They did not expect a sight of this magnitude when Roman assumed the lead role.
“Follow the lord!”
“Attack!”
Kevin.
He first raised a blood clot in his neck and shouted.
As Kevin and Chris follow Roman and pounce on their enemies, other soldiers also brandish their weapons with venomous eyes.
hooked!
“Krurrukruk.”
Barco’s soldier knelt in a bubble of blood as the attack slit the opponent’s throat.
Kevin immediately swung his sword at another opponent even though a person died at his hand.
It was the same with Chris.
I tried to catch up as much as I could because I knew that the moment I hesitated even a little, Roman would get farther away.
“Oh dear.”
“Stop that monster!”
Roman opened the way.
The shield walls made by the enemies had long since lost their meaning, and in a situation where they had turned into a mess, Barco’s soldiers didn’t dare to rush at them and only screamed.
They knew too.
Knowing that whoever runs into Roman first is dead, he pushes the backs of his colleagues and hopes that someone will work a miracle.
but.
The miracle didn’t happen.
Roman cut down the opponents who rushed at him, and there was no one to even take a blow, let alone attack and defense.
Phi Phi Phi.
The surroundings turned red.
Countless people died and blood flowed as rivers, and Roman took one step at a time, slaughtering his enemies.
OK.
‘flare.’
target of this plan.
The appearance of the siege weapon was right in front of us.
Roman’s performance.
Berge, the leader of the Berge Mercenary Corps, showed a puzzled expression at the crazy presence that overwhelmed the surroundings.
“… What is this?”
opponent.
It was Roman Dmitry.
While taking on Barko’s mission, he knew the faces of all the people he had a stake in, but he didn’t know that Roman Dmitri was this strong.
It didn’t matter why he was here.
The problem was that Roman’s personal strength was overwhelming enough to slaughter dozens of soldiers, and if he was left alone, the war between Barco and Lawrence might end with unexpected results.
‘That’s not allowed.’
this mission.
It took a lot of money.
Since the fate of the Berge mercenaries was at stake, Berge pulled out his sword and rushed towards Roman.
‘I handle it.’
Berge.
An A-class mercenary recognized by the kingdom.
Unlike the B-class status, which can be obtained simply by handling chores, A-class must have special features such as using an aura.
Berge is a 2 star aura swordsman. At the age of 40, he didn’t dare to go beyond that, but his 2-star aura was enough to defeat Roman.
anger.
Qurrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr.
Aura rose.
The mana exploding from the whole body was expressed through the medium of the sword, and Berge swung the sword straight at Roman.
one-hit kill.
promised victory.
Even if the opponent was a 3-star aura swordsman, his special move was not an attack that could be easily blocked.
however.
Caang!
got stuck
Roman blocked the attack as if nothing happened.
to that sight.
Berge widened his eyes.
‘This crazy!’
A full-strength attack would have to break the opponent’s sword and slice the flesh, but the repulsive force felt from the sword made it seem as if vomit would come up immediately.
It was a different situation than expected.
The moment Berge hurried to backstep at the urgent warning sound in his head, Roman immediately followed and attacked.
Caang!
Kakakakang!
chain attack.
It felt like my mind would fly away.
The aura of Roman’s sword burned up before he knew it, and he drove Berge into a corner with attacks from all directions.
Roman and Berge.
The size of the aura was different.
Outwardly, Berge’s huge aura should overwhelm Roman to be normal, but every time Roman and Berge’s sword collided, Berge’s aura was noticeably reduced.
Berge knew then.
According to rumors, the existence in front of Dmitri’s idiot was an opponent he could not dare to face.
‘This is too strong!’
regret is late
this mission.
I thought I was eating it.
However, the variable called Roman, which even the veteran mercenary did not expect, resulted in a different result from the original plan.
Awesome!
shining sword.
Blood lines were drawn on Berge’s neck, and the torso knelt down as it was.
thud.
Berge.
As an A-class mercenary, the time he held out against Roman was barely 10 seconds.
Truly.
It was a fleeting moment.
Berge’s death.
It’s a great achievement.
Roman took down a Class A mercenary in 10 seconds, but it was no surprise to anyone who knew his truth.
‘I am not the Heavenly Demon in this world.’
The time when I was a heavenly demon.
There was no competent person who dared to exchange battles.
With Baek Joong-hyeok’s blow, many masters of the rightist faction, Murim, collapsed.
however.
It was different in this world.
Roman is weak.
It developed rapidly and grew to the level of overwhelming Berge, but that much did not disappear the thirst.
Roaring.
The aura flared up.
from top to bottom.
In a situation where ordinary people would feel a sense of shame, Roman was rather eager to take on a new challenge.
New world.
new strongmen.
It would be wonderful to conquer all of them with a body like this.
Roman moved on.
Even killing Berge wasn’t enough, and seeing the unstoppable appearance, Viscount Barco was furious with a face that looked like he was about to faint.
“Kill! I mean, kill that guy!”
Berge’s death.
I couldn’t believe it at all.
It was not simply that Berge and Roman were fighting and one side died, but Berge attempted a surprise attack and was killed one-sidedly.
And that’s not all.
Even though Roman had slaughtered countless soldiers before that, he did not lose his breath as if the fight with Berge was nothing.
monster.
It was overwhelming.
The road opened according to Roman’s movement, and at this rate it was only a matter of time before the siege weapons were destroyed.
I had to stop it.
He shouted to stop somehow, but contrary to Viscount Barco’s intention, his body gradually moved away from Roman.
“It’s dangerous, Viscount!”
“You must evacuate first!”
Knights of Barco.
They dragged Viscount Barco away.
At first, he tried to subdue Roman by joining forces, but changed his mind the moment he saw Berge falling out.
It is still a fight in which Barco has an advantage. He did not want to risk his life to fight Roman because he could gain an advantage in the number of troops if he returned the troops attacking the wall.
The road is open.
No one rushed to Roman.
Roman honestly stepped forward, and before he knew it, a flare existed in front of him.
‘flare.’
A product of magic that does not exist in Moorim.
Aside from the fact that the bullets he fired cost dozens of gold, the specially designed body itself to fire the magic bullets was worth it.
So, the goal of this plan was the body.
If the body is destroyed, Barco will have no way to attack Lawrence’s walls from a distance.
‘Heavenly Devil.’
Roaring.
raised mana.
Flare’s body is protected by magic.
Since it cannot be broken with normal attacks, the mana that was dormant in the battle was awakened and manifested in Roman’s sword.
aura of black light
It was the power of the Heavenly Demon.
‘Heavenly Swordsman’s 1 second ceremony.’
one attack.
one flash.
Quaang!
Qurrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr
The sword split the flare.
There was a roar, and the huge body was split in two.
overwhelming sight.
For a moment, everyone on the battlefield held their breath.
at that time.
Roman shouted with a mana-filled voice.
“Listen Lawrence! I, Roman Dmitri, destroyed Barko’s siege engine!”
at that point.
The atmosphere of the battlefield was reversed.
Barco’s soldiers.
Those who risked their lives fighting on the front lines have no way of knowing what is going on in the rear.
blast furnace.
Roman’s remarks told the truth.
Hearing that the siege weapon had been destroyed, he looked flustered even with the enemy in front of him.
“What?”
“The flare was destroyed?”
It was an embarrassing moment.
The destruction of the flares could also be interpreted as meaning that Barco’s rear was in danger, apart from simply losing the advantage of siege weapons.
Then the footsteps that were pushing toward the castle gate stopped.
Barco’s knights, who were grasping the situation, hurriedly ordered a retreat when they saw that the flare was really broken.
“Retreat!”
“Everyone step back!”
The lights went out on fire.
Viscount Barco.
Their owners were in danger.
Protecting Viscount Barco took precedence over capturing Lawrence, and they quickly turned their steps.
The situation unfolded in an instant.
Barco’s retreat.
The soldiers of Lawrence who survived the crisis of desperation looked at each other with bewildered expressions because they did not know why.
and.
Flora on the castle wall also looked for Roman with astonished eyes.
“… You really do it.”
A situation you thought was impossible.
this time too.
Roman went beyond Flora’s common sense.
