thud!
The impact felt like the banquet hall was going to collapse.
“Tongue, bloody horse….”
Kang Hyeon-cheol, it was the noise he made as he knelt down.
“Hello!”
Just a few seconds ago, it was Kang Han-cheol who was trying to take Lee Ro-woon’s life.
But now he was on his knees, his head bowed, trembling.
“… … .”
That was the sense of presence of the blood demon that the blood cultists had.
Silence fell upon the banquet hall.
‘how….’
Even though Kang-cheol was prostrate, he still couldn’t fully understand the situation.
‘There are two blood horses…’
There has been no such example in all of history.
But didn’t he feel it himself, so he denied it?
‘That’s definitely… a blood demon.’
Blood Demon Art, a martial art that only the master of the Blood Sect, the Blood Demon, can learn.
The technique that Lee Ro-woon used in an instant was a blood curtain that could only be used with blood magic.
I had never heard of blood being a pitch black color, but my fist that touched the blood proved it.
It felt like my bet was being sucked out, like I had lost control of the flames of Hell that should never go out.
There was only one thing that could do that, the Blood Demon.
I wanted to ask.
How did this unmanned being known as a player learn the power of blood magic?
Gooooo.
But I couldn’t ask.
Because the absolute energy emanating from Iroun seemed to not allow even an inch of doubt.
“tongue….”
Kang Eun-ha finally came to her senses.
“Meet the Blood Horse!”
She also quickly prostrated herself and bowed.
“Now I can finally understand.”
The voice of Lee Ro-un, who is so languid.
“Can you give up your position as Blood Horse now?”
“Ouch.”
Kang Han-cheol bit his lip.
“Why is there no answer?”
If you have learned the Blood Demon Art, then it is only right that you take the Blood Demon’s place.
Because that was the law of the blood cult.
“That is….”
But there was a problem.
“The current Blood Demon already… rules over the Blood Cult.”
There are two blood horses.
“I don’t know how you learned the Blood Demon Art, but the elders of our church… will not easily accept the existence of a new Blood Demon.”
It was the same for him too.
If Iroun hadn’t thrust the blood membrane in front of his eyes, he would have said it was just nonsense. If he hadn’t experienced the blood membrane himself, he would have said to tear to pieces the person who dared to impersonate the blood demon.
‘It’s a problem even if the elders believe it.’
It had already been more than ten years since the Blood Demon had ascended to the throne, and the elders had reorganized the order to accommodate the new Blood Demon.
The emergence of a new blood horse destroys that order.
‘The elders who are about to lose their vested interests will not acknowledge the blood horse in front of them.’
What if the blood horse of that time was a half-baked blood horse who had not learned the blood horse technique?
If both of them learned the Blood Magic, then Lee Ro-un’s future was obvious.
‘At best it’s confinement, at worst it’s murder.’
I will erase its existence before the general followers of the Blood Cult know about it.
“Blood Demon?”
At that moment, Lee Ro-woon’s voice tickled Kang Han-cheol’s ears.
“Yes, Blood Demon. I am speaking of the Blood Demon’s proof and symbol of the Blood Cult, the Blood Demon Ball. Didn’t you know…?”
“pooh….”
Above the Joarin Hill.
“Poohahaha-!”
Lee Ro-woon’s laughter fell.
“I wondered why the Blood Cult ended up like this, and there was a reason for that.”
“… … ?”
“It’s half-baked.”
“… … !”
Kang Han-cheol’s eyes lit up.
“The symbol of the Blood Horse is not the Blood Horse Duke.”
Choaack!

Once again, the blood flowing from under Lee Ro-woon’s feet rippled before Kang Han-cheol’s eyes.
Pfft!
The blood that suddenly took shape and spurted out like a magic wand stopped between Kang Han-cheol’s eyebrows.
“It’s the Blood Demon God Art.”
“that!”
“… … !”
Kang Han-cheol was so surprised that he lifted his head.
The same was true for Kang Eun-ha.
Because it was the moment when the truth I had known until then completely collapsed.
“That went well. What is your position?”
“I am ashamed to say this, but I am sitting in the position of the left guardian.”
“Yes. Left-handed.”
Lee Ro-woon looked down at Kang Han-cheol, who had raised his head, and spoke.
“What should I do now?”
* * *
A villa in Namyangju.
The walls were as high as a castle wall, and there were black-suited bodyguards on all sides, guarding like an iron wall.
Kang Ha Group, Chairman Kang Han-cheol’s villa.
“Phew.”
Inside, Kang Eun-ha was breathing hard with a nervous look on her face.
Kang Eun-ha, who had caught her breath, carefully knocked on the door.
“I beg you, Blood Demon. Please wait a moment….”
“Come in.”
Kang Eun-ha opened the door, went in, knelt down, and bowed her head.
“I look upon the face of the Blood Demon.”
Well-dressed, graceful and polite gestures.
Indeed, Kang Eun-ha faced Lee Ro-woon in the form of a priestess of the Blood Cult.
“Enough with the useless greetings. There’s no need to bow down or show excessive courtesy.”
“Huh, but… .”
Kang Eun-ha fidgeted at Lee Ro-woon’s words.
What kind of place is the blood sect?
It was a religion, not a sect or a group.
And in the Blood Cult, the Blood Horse was the god they had to worship.
Although many things have changed in the Blood Cult over the years, the courtesy and formality towards the Blood Horse are things that all Blood Cult members must learn and follow.
“I am a blood horse, are you a blood horse?”
“… … !”
“If you tell me not to do it, I won’t do it.”
“I will keep that in mind.”
Kang Eun-ha quickly raised her head and straightened her posture.
‘under.’
Even at this moment, I couldn’t understand what was happening.
At first, it was just a bit of an escape.
After spending the past years trapped in the Blood Cult as a priestess, she fortunately came to Earth with her grandfather, but her life was no different from her life on Eun.
That is why he secretly left to directly help the Blood Cult and hid his identity to recruit followers, and by chance, he got caught up in the Red Player’s scheme.
I thought it went well.
Those who were already trying to recruit him, if he saved them, they would be more cooperative.
‘That’s what happened…’
There was a man who was concerned.
A man who gave me a strange feeling, if you call him a ronin, I think he was hiding something.
At first, I thought he was just a reclusive master who kept his identity a secret.
He became greedy when he learned that he was a good man with a reputation as a fellow murderer.
Lee Ro-un was clearly a player.
However, not only did he possess the internal energy of a human, but his skills were also so high that he could not even compete with him.
I thought that if I could recruit him and uncover his secret, it would be a great help to the struggling church.
But he’s a blood horse.
‘I had no idea.’
I kept feeling something prickling deep in my chest, but I never thought it was because of the Iroun blood demon.
“You must be crazy. A guy who suddenly appeared and was a player at that, and he’s called a blood demon.”
“… … Oh, no.”
“Your speech. Can you please do something about it?”
“I will correct it… .”
“speech.”
Kang Eun-ha shook her head and took a breath again.
“All right.”
Although Lee Ro-un still had an unsatisfied expression on his face, he seemed to be trying to move on.
“Well, I didn’t know this situation would arise.”
“… … .”
“A dying slave from the Volcano Guild is a blood horse. Isn’t that funny?”
I was sincere.
When I thought it was the end, I met the Masters and I didn’t know that it would really confine me to chaos.
I thought I was going to die again, but I didn’t know I would come back.
But he returned, took a small revenge, and reached one of his masters’ legacies.
“What is the left-hand method?”
“My grandfather….”
Kang Eun-ha finally came to her senses and spoke.
“I will find out the elders’ intentions and select those I can trust…”
“Please lower your tone.”
“…do.”
Lee Ro-woon nodded.
The current situation of the Blood Cult that I heard briefly was as follows.
Even without that, the Blood Cult and Blood Demon Cult, which had been cornered since the Silver Age, were not often properly passed down, so it was said that there were generations where the Blood Demon did not exist.
However, about ten years ago, the son of the previous Blood Sect leader succeeded in taking over the Blood Demon Lordship and became the Blood Demon, uniting the divided Blood Sect and expanding its power.
The blood sect, which could collapse at any moment, was regaining its center.
‘And then I showed up.’
One’s own existence.
A blood demon who succeeded the new blood demon.
no.
‘This is the real Blood Demon God.’
It is bound to be confusing since someone has appeared who has followed the progress of the Blood Demon, even though he does not know the Left Law.
‘If we make a mistake, the blood sect that has just barely found its balance will be shaken.’
Kang Han-cheol, his head will be broken too.
“Can you trust your grandfather?”
“That’s right…! Of course. The guardians only desire and are loyal to the true Blood Demon. The Left Guardian has witnessed the Blood Demon’s power with his own eyes, and has come to realize who the true Blood Demon is.”
It was true.
But as always, the problem was the other elders.
One way would be to show them how it benefits them directly.
“The other elders….”
“If you don’t want the Blood Cult to split again, or if you can’t acknowledge me, then I can attack you.”
“… … .”
Kang Eun-ha bit her lip.
Because that was also true.
And now, Yirun is unable to overcome the elders’ offensive.
Although they possess the power of the Blood Horse, each and every elder has reached the level of the ultimate demon, and the Blood Horses of the time already possessed powers even greater than that.
Even if you find the real thing, you can lose it.
“But Grandfather, you can do it! If what the Blood Demon has inherited is the true Blood Demon Divine Art, then the legitimacy lies with the Blood Demon.”
“The process is….”
Sigh.
“There will be a coup.”
In the end, you have to fight.
The Blood Cult has just managed to find its balance, but it must be shaken again.
“However, if a true Blood Demon who has learned the Blood Demon Art becomes the center, the Blood Cult will become stronger than before.”
“Well, that’s obvious.”
Lee Ro-woon shrugged and said.
“There is a way.”
“… … ?”
“A way for me to become a Blood Demon without a coup, a way for me to become a Blood Demon without splitting the Blood Cult that I have barely managed to unite.”
“that is…?”
Shh.
Lee Ro-woon curled the corners of his mouth with sleepy eyes.
“I can defeat the elders and the half-blooded demons all by myself.”
“… … !”
* * *
Blood sect is a religion.
The reason why the blood horse was absolute was because of the law.
That is, the law was absolute.
There was something that was the most fundamental to the laws of the Blood Cult.
It is also in line with the Cheonmagyo, and is the reason why the Eunmurim points fingers at the Blood Cult and the Cheonmagyo as groups of demons.
‘The strong are respected.’
The strong are the law.
Of course, there was the existence of the Blood Horse on top of that, and the elders were stronger than the Blood Horse, so defeating the Blood Horse did not make them Blood Horses.
But what if there are two people who inherit the Blood Demon Lord, the symbol of the Blood Demon Lord?
‘The winner becomes the blood horse.’
It was a simple task.
I heard about the contemporary blood horse from Kang Eun-ha.
‘He has achieved the ultimate blood magic and has surpassed the ultimate magic.’
That’s the level of a high ranker.
However, he said that he has not yet fully grown, and has not yet reached the level of a high ranker, or one-handed, or even two-handed.
If the Blood Demon had been completed, the Blood Cult would have already emerged from its veil and revealed itself.
So the conclusion was simple.
“You just have to surpass the current blood horse.”
At that level, you can survive the elders’ combined attack and prove yourself.
‘Show me.’
It seemed as if I could hear Master Mu-Wang’s words.
The blood sect was originally his, so he wasn’t annoyed that he couldn’t get it easily.
Isn’t that the world?
A world where it is natural for the strong to have everything.
I was the same way.
Prove yourself.
That’s what I learned from Master Muwang.
To do that….
Gooooo.
A deep blood began to flow into Iroun’s half-closed eyes.
The third stage of the Blood Demon God’s Black Blood has reached its end.
From now on, I will complete the black blood.
And then.
“Entering the fourth stage.”
The final stage of the Blood Demon God Art, the True Blood stage.
