Chapter 150 – Who’s That Woman Beside Me? (4)’
Nam Hyerin, King of the Green Forest, and Shin Yura.
The three decided to handle it together.
The Black Prince.
A knight from Europe was watching them.
‘Is it doable?’
Shin Yura pondered in this situation.
It should be doable. The master never asked them to surpass an insurmountable wall.
However, this wall felt like no ordinary one, and the pressure was immense. Could they defeat that being? It was more likely to be difficult.
“Hoo.”
She took a deep breath. Beside her, Nam Hyerin took a stance to draw her sword. It was a bit comforting.
“Be careful.”
The King of the Green Forest spoke in a firm voice. The wind was blowing. The spirit of the wind was swirling around her.
The spirit of the wind that Shin Yura temporarily acquired.
It was possible because she transferred its control to the King of the Green Forest.
“Did you learn how to temporarily transfer control?”
“Yes, the professor taught me.”
“...You really know all sorts of things.”
“For now, let’s focus on that.”
“Alright.”
The Green Forest King stepped forward. In accordance with her martial arts, a green aura rose above her sword.
Beside her stood Nam Hyerin. She could not use the aura.
It was the exclusive domain of those who have reached the Supreme Realm. Nam Hyerin was still lacking to use it. But it was fine. She had the Sovereign Sword Form.
Whoosh!
The aura spread in all directions. It was imbued with the Sovereign’s aura. It began to press down on the surroundings.
“Quite useful.”
The Green Forest King muttered as she moved forward. It was indeed useful. The Black Prince’s gaze slightly changed.
‘Is this seventy percent?’
The Green Forest King thought. About seventy percent of the advantage had shifted to them. Others might not know, but she felt that with just Nam Hyerin and herself, they could defeat the Black Prince.
Shin Yura prepared her magic.
Divine Thunderbolt.
The lightning of destruction.
A force of absolute power that could even kill its user. Its might is truly akin to a natural disaster.
Lightning that split stars.
She slowly began to resist the Glacial Heavenly Moon and Brilliant Blazing Fire etched into her heart.
‘Slowly.’
This power was extremely dangerous.
It was lightning that could shatter even the user’s body.
Therefore,
It must be used properly...
“You haven’t learned the Heaven-Surrendering Godly Technique. You seemed a bit gentle earlier. Just a disciple, I suppose.”
Everything about Shin Yura stopped.
The circles and mana that were rebelling inside her. And the magical formula attempting to use Divine Thunderbolt.
All of it was held by ‘something.’
‘What on earth...’
She tried to move her lips. Even the slight movement of her lips was impossible.
The Black Prince, Nam Hyerin, the Green Forest King, and those who were charging at her also stood still.
It was as if this place formed a certain realm.
“Well, it seemed inspired by that damned fairy. On the other hand, the Heaven-Surrendering Godly Technique was a martial art I created with you, so it wasn’t passed down.”
A woman standing next to him spoke with a somewhat elated tone.
The woman spoke something as she moved away from the one pointing a sword at Han Seojin.
It wasn’t very audible.
However, one thing was heard.
“Honey, I love you.”
It was Han Seojin’s voice.
“Hm.”
An arrogant supreme being descended.
How? That question naturally arose, but none of them could deny the reality.
Eyes as deep as the abyss.
The moment they saw it, they realized. The moment they opposed it, they died.
Among those who opposed Han Seojin, many possessed the desire to become stronger.
However, none of them wanted to die a dog’s death here; they all merely wished to become stronger.
His deep eyes swept the surroundings with an arrogant aura. Every time one looked into those abyss-like eyes, they flinched. It felt as if he could kill with a mere movement of his hand.
Thus, it was puzzling.
“The face of someone known as the Heaven-Surrendering Martial Emperor should look more masculine than this. Doesn’t it look too feminine?”
“Is that so...”
“But you’re quite relaxed. I thought you would run away the moment you saw me.”
“Hmm...”
Han Seojin pondered for a moment.
He had thought about escaping. If he got caught here by her, he might face a confinement ending.
But that thought disappeared.
The moment he saw her face, he felt it.
‘Have I grown more tired than I thought?’
Seeing the Heavenly Demon’s face, those thoughts vanished.
After all, hadn’t he already dealt with those troublesome ones?
The Insect Dragon King and the King of Greatness.
Having dealt with those two, it was somewhat satisfying...
Or not.
Living here with the Heavenly Demon wasn’t a bad idea either.
“How’s the barrier?”
“I broke through with force.”
“...You can break through with force, huh.”
“There’s that. And I’ve gained resources while operating at the barrier.”
“Resources?”
“Yes, if you establish certain deeds, you can roam outside.”
“Yet, despite having such things, I haven’t seen any transcendent beings wandering around.”
“Gathering wealth itself is not easy. Plus, there are gods who interfere or help transcendents hide.”
“Aha.”
“The gods don’t want belief to be directed towards them. Transcendents don’t necessarily need human faith either. It’s convenient to have that power, but ultimately, it’s not their own strength.”
The Heavenly Demon looked at Han Seojin as she spoke.
“So, is that all you have to say?”
“...Well, I think we should tidy up here first.”
“Tidy up, you say.”
The Heavenly Demon closed her eyes for a moment.
“Originally, I would have taken you somewhere without asking your opinion.”
“......”
“But I’ve changed my mind a bit. It seems your place here is quite secure.”
The Heavenly Demon released her hold on Han Seojin.
Pitch-black pupils.
Eyes that seemed to hold an abyss took in Han Seojin’s enemies: Black Lion, Witch, Monster.
Sword Demon.
She pondered briefly. There was loyalty towards herself. However, the sin of attempting to harm Han Seojin’s precious body was deep. A somewhat useful sword, but only just.
“Enough. It seems somewhat useful.”
“...Is that so?”
As the Heavenly Demon reached out, Han Seojin intervened.
“Wa, wait a moment!”
The Witch spoke urgently.
“W-we’ll retreat. We won’t covet your things ever again. If you don’t believe us, you can even form a contract with the God of Contracts!!”
Cold sweat was flowing. Her eyes couldn’t find focus, trembling violently.
Though in the Supreme Realm, she wasn’t merely a human. Hard for even an average transcendent to handle.
But the Heavenly Demon was no ordinary transcendent.
Monster.
The one who has transcended, ascended, was called an existence even incomprehensible to those named as such.
The same went for gods.
Gods could intervene in the world more than transcendents.
The power they possessed supplied divine power when their followers were in danger, for those they cherished.
Or they delivered warnings through oracles.
Hence, there were some warnings they issued.
-Do not meddle with the Cult.
It was not just a few gods who said this.
Most gods said it. It was something they didn’t particularly want to provoke.
“The matters overseen by the God of Contracts are......”
Thud.
With those words, the Witch’s head rolled off.
“Such a bother.”
The Heavenly Demon spoke in an indifferent tone.
“Then shall we talk about the unfinished matters now.”
Han Seojin felt an inexplicable chill.
