Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!
The sound of a song blaring loudly.
Arain was the largest club in Gangnam and one of the best clubs in all of Asia.
“It’s noisy.”
Let’s say this as if Lee Ro-un is annoyed.
“… … !”
Soon silence came.
But other people inside the club were still dancing happily.
‘Amazing!’
Kim Eun-tae, the manager of Pier, a bar in Dongdaemun and one of the branches of Heuksi in Seoul, broke out in a cold sweat without realizing it.
Membrane.
It was a method in which the drones used their internal energy to create a barrier to block out noise.
The surprise wasn’t that surprising.
Of course, it is evaluated as a refined skill used by masters who have reached the level of Hwagyeong, but if you were to consider yourself a martial artist, aren’t you also a master of Hwagyeong?
But I know because I am a merchant who deals in information.
‘Moving like this, he completely avoided people and only gave him a shock.’
That level of internal power management is not something that just anyone can do.
The club is packed with people, so people passing by don’t feel out of place at all.
‘Is this really a blood horse?’
A story I still can’t believe.
It was only yesterday that he came to Heuksi to receive a request, and now this man has reappeared as a blood horse and is on his way to meet the Heuksi King.
“Haaam.”
“… … .”
Once again, Kim Eun-tae broke out in a cold sweat.
‘Don’t you know who you’re going to meet now?’
That tired face, as if annoyed.
The gap between the two that I saw earlier was so large that it was unimaginable.
Moreover, he was now going to meet none other than the Black King.
‘Black King.’
He is someone.
He is the king of the dark world that rules over all of Asia and divides half of the underworld into two.
Only a few people have ever heard his voice, and only a few have ever seen his face.
Even the branch manager in charge of one of the branches of Heuksi, who himself had never seen the Heuksi King, was the one.
‘Aren’t you even nervous?’
Because he’s a blood horse?
If so, he is very mistaken.
The Seoul branch of the Black City has maintained a close relationship with the Blood Cult for a long time under the command of the Black City King.
In the Silver World, the Blood Cult is portrayed as an extremely evil group and an evil force that cannot be ignored, but in reality, as Kim Eun-tae understood, it could be said to be one of the worlds that was on the verge of collapse.
Of course, I also had information about the blood horse.
‘The Blood Horse is clearly the strongest.’
But compared to the Black King… .
‘A being of no value.’
Kim Eun-tae couldn’t even imagine why the Black King would meet this person in person.
Swish.
There were people who stood in the way of Kim Eun-tae and Lee Ro-woon.
“You can’t go forward from here.”
Men in well-dressed suits.
The momentum felt from them was by no means inferior to Kim Eun-tae.
“I think this is it for me.”
“Okay, see you next time.”
Kim Eun-tae bowed his head deeply to Lee Ro-woon.
“Follow me.”
The guards began to head up, carrying Iroun.
A glass staircase shining with dazzling lights and magical lights that dazzle the eyes.
“You can just go up.”
There were these guards standing tightly on both sides of the stairs.
Each and every one of them exudes the aura of a strong force that cannot be ignored.
Knock, knock.
Yirun passed them and headed up the glass stairs without hesitation.
Then at one moment.
“… … .”
The loud music blaring outside the building stopped.
“Welcome.”
A place that has changed without even crossing the door.
There was a fancy sofa in front of the window with a direct view of the club.
In the middle of it all, sitting there, was a handsome man wearing a suit that looked very valuable at first glance.

Age: Early twenties.
The tie inside his suit was disheveled and his hair was wet.
“I am the Black King.”
The man who made countless women cry with just a look in his eyes was none other than the Black King.
* * *
Black King.
He was the master of the Black City, which was located in the darkness throughout the Asian continent.
His wealth was reportedly unimaginable, with his fortune reportedly equal to several years’ budget for a country.
He said that although countless rich and poor Asians have wished to meet him in person, only a few of them have actually met the Black King.
The benefactors of the past are something we can never meet again.
“This is a pretty good drink. Would you like some?”
He was handing a glass of wine to Iroun.
“Okay. Even if you drink it, you won’t get drunk.”
“Haha. Well then.”
Taaah.
With a snap of his fingers, the bottles and glasses that had filled the table disappeared without a trace.
Black King.
He looked at Iroun with gentle eyes and said.
“The Blood Demon wants to see me.”
It was hard to believe that he really was the ruler of the darkness of Asia, half of it.
“If it’s the Blood Demon’s request, I must gladly grant it.”
“You continued to help the Blood Cult, right?”
“I am simply repaying the favor of my predecessors. Don’t you know? What a place the Silver World is.”
Silver drones.
They value favors.
Repay kindness and take revenge.
“That’s funny.”
Lee Ro-un laughed as if he found it funny.
“How many generations will it take for people like you to repay a favor?”
“Aren’t we people too?”
“It must be beneficial.”
Shh.
The Black King smiled without answering.
“It was quite useful information, as it was a replacement for the Blood Horse. There were already many strange parts, but now the puzzle has been solved.”
The Black King continued speaking.
“Is Kang Han-cheol in charge of the blood sect?”
“Are there any more rats left?”
The Black King shook his head.
“That’s impossible. Didn’t Elder Oh die?”
“That kid was a rat.”
“Well, I guess we’re close friends who exchange necessary information with each other.”
Once again, Lee Ro-un laughed as if he found it amusing.
“Kang Eun-ha has taken full authority over the world and established the Galaxy Guild to expand her power. It was an unusual appointment for a young priestess to be given full authority. So what does she want…?”
The Black King’s eyes deepened.
“change.”
“… … .”
“The people of the Blood Cult are people who have been stagnant and rotten for a long time and have become hardened. They are just fools who cannot even surrender to the changing times.”
“There is nothing you can’t say in front of the Blood Demon.”
“If you want change, Kang Han-cheol, who has accumulated experience and insight in the outside world, is the best fit to lead the Blood Cult. If he hadn’t taken over the Blood Cult, Kang Eun-ha wouldn’t have been able to take full control of the outside world.”
Lee Ro-un looked at the Black King.
“If that’s the case, then so be it.”
The Black King’s gaze changed.
It felt like a desire that had been well hidden until now was stirring.
“Can we think that the Blood Demon and the Blood Cult Leader can coexist?”
Black King.
Indeed, its reputation was not in vain.
The information he knew about the Blood Cult was deeper than he thought.
“you….”
He seemed to flinch.
“Are you a real blood demon?”
really.
I knew he wasn’t talking about the Blood Horse’s seat.
The being that the Blood Cultists have been hoping and waiting for.
‘Blood Demon.’
The Black King was asking that.
“well.”
Lee Ro-un looked at him and smiled.
“Isn’t it the principle of the Black Market that information requires a price?”
The Black King’s eyes widened like crescent moons.
“That’s right. I have a lot of questions for you, Mr. Lee.”
This kid.
Lee Ro-un saw the Black King.
I just realized that the name he was talking about wasn’t the name that Heukshi had sold to Kang Eunha.
‘me.’
I’m talking about the benefits that came from being a player.
After two transformations, Lee Ro-woon barely had any of his old self left.
Even if it remained, the momentum and feeling had changed to the point where it was unrecognizable.
And yet I know.
“Kim Shin-hong, the leader of the Volcano Guild, died in the monster corpse disposal site.”
“… … .”
“He came to see me after hearing that the slave he cared about, Iroun, had died. That day, most of the slaves in Hwasan were freed.”
The Black King’s voice rose as if he was having fun.
“In the meantime, someone came to the Heuksi branch and took a request by saying a secret word from five years ago. Do you know that? The secret words of Heuksi are different for each of the ten people, and we keep a record of who took the secret words.”
A satisfied smile spread across the Black King’s lips as if he had cornered Iroun.
“Could this all be a coincidence, Mr. Lee Ro-un?”
“Well. What do you think?”
Iroun’s eyes looked at the Black King.
“More than I thought….”
The Black King stretched his body and said.
“You’re a more interesting person.”
The Black King was convinced.
“You spilled it on purpose.”
“that’s right.”
Lee Ro-un said as if he was hiding something great.
“I need to attract some attention to meet the Black King. For a while, the Black King will be a burden to me as well. It would be dangerous to touch the Black King with something so trivial.”
“For a while, Ira… .”
Crack!
The Black King clapped his hands together.
“Hahahahahahahaha!”
A laughter that could be described as madness filled the room.
“Okay! Okay! That sounds like a really good deal.”
The Black King’s expression changed, and he looked at Iroun with eyes sparkling with desire.
“What do you want?”
* * *
Black King.
He was the world’s greatest power, ruling over the dark half of Asia.
Even in the company, you can’t meet him even if you want to, and even if he’s the president, it’s difficult to send a message to the Black King.
That being was bowing his head while prostrating himself as the Blood Cultists would do to the benefactors.
Anyone who saw this sight would be shocked.
Even the most daring of the Hwejus never received such reverence from the Black King.
further.
“Give me whatever you want.”
It would be even more unbelievable if you knew that the target was a kid less than half the size of the Black King.
“I will obey your command.”
“How was it?”
A little boy, either male or female, spoke to the Black King.
“That man. Blood horse.”
“I can certainly see why you’re interested. He’s an unusual human. I couldn’t understand how he, a player, could have acquired unmanned powers and become a blood demon.”
The boy listened quietly to the Black King’s voice.
“Moreover, I couldn’t even read the history. Whether it was really the legendary Blood Demon God….”
Who is the Black King?
He was someone who could be confidently considered one of the top thirty strong men in Asia.
But he couldn’t read the background of the benefit.
“You couldn’t tell what was in those eyes, and there wasn’t an ounce of awkwardness in his confident demeanor.”
The Black King continued speaking without raising his head.
“Originally, the person named Iroun was not that kind of person. Five years of slavery is not enough to explain it. I thought it might have been the work of the volcano… .”
The Black King quietly raised his head.
“Not only does the volcano not even recognize the existence of the beneficial effects, it also fails to create a danjeon effect for the player.”
The little boy nodded.
The Black King spoke to the little boy in a trembling voice.
“What did you see, master?”
I know I shouldn’t dare say such things.
But the Black King couldn’t contain his curiosity.
‘Blood sect.’
Why on earth does his master not pay attention to that perishing world?
Why on earth do you continue to help the Blood Cult?
Why did you move yourself to see the blood demon?
“A human?”
The Black King said.
Blood Horse is an unusual human being.
But the little boy said,
“That thing is a monster.”
Shiver shiver.
The boy suppressed his trembling hands and quietly closed his eyes.
The Black King who divides the darkness of Asia, and his master.
‘The leader of the Hao clan at that time, Ha Jin.’
That was her identity.
The only ruler who truly rules the Dark City.
What she saw in Yirun was a fear that was beyond words.
‘at las….’
She said this without even paying attention to the Black King.
“Is he here?”
“… … .”
The Black King did not dare to ask anything.
Because he felt an unknown aura coming from Hajin, he felt like the Black King would not forgive him if he opened his mouth.
“I need to invest in the Blood Cult. You take the initiative.”
“number of people….”
The Black King spoke with a trembling voice.
“I accept it.”
