How to Live as a Magician in the Martial Arts World Episode 68
Chapter 16. Rescue (4)
Jegal Hyunmong thought as he ran.
As expected, the title of ‘Muhujaerim’ is too much of a title and does not suit him at all.
‘If it was my ancestors or my father, I would have predicted that Hyang-ah might cough.’
Zhuge Xuanmong never thought of himself as being smart.
It’s just that what’s been happening lately has been luck. But what’s happening now is happening due to ignorance.
“Keeeeeek!”
It seemed that the human-faced landowner also had proper hearing.
The human-faced giant let out a scream as if responding to the sound of coughing and ran back to the food storage with an agility that did not match its large body.
Looking through the vision connected to the raccoon’s spirit, Jegal Hyunmong swung his magic staff roughly.
Choaaaak!
He made his body as light as possible by tearing away the spider webs that were blocking his run with the blades of the wind.
Hyang-ah covered her mouth again. However, Inmyeonjiju was persistently looking around.
It was discovered that the cocoon that Hyang-ah had been hanging from was torn apart.
The human face drawn on the armor was strangely distorted and its eyes were turned away.
“Kyaaaaah!”
The man-faced man couldn’t find the well-hidden Hyang-a and the raccoon. There was a small hole at the edge of the cave that could fit only one person, and they went in there and held their breath.
The eyes of the person on the human-faced turtle’s back narrowed.
And then, the man-faced person’s mouth opened.
“… … !”
Poison began to slowly pour out from his mouth.
It was a poison that was mixed in when spewing spider webs, and sprayed in the form of fog.
And Zhuge Xuanmong arrived at the entrance of the cave and shouted.
“Hold your breath and cover your ears!”
Jegal Hyunmong’s shout echoed throughout the cave.
And the human-faced guardian deity, who had just started to emit poisonous smoke, turned his face towards the cave entrance when he heard the voice.
Of course, the same was true for Dambi and Hyang-ah.
The civet stretched out its long body and covered Hyang-ah’s ears.
Hyang-ah also covered the raccoon’s ears with her own hands.
And the next moment.
Kwakwakwakwakwang!
A huge, thunderous noise echoed through the cave.
“!!!!!??”
The huge sound was also a huge shock.
Dam-bi and Hyang-ah immediately understood why Jegal Hyeon-mong had told them to cover their ears.
If not, it would have been a deafening noise.
Even the human-faced pillar was the same. It was so shocked by the sudden loud noise that it staggered around, unable to keep its posture.
‘Falling down?’
The moment that thought occurred to him, the human-faced person’s body suddenly turned backwards.
And then he started running outside at a crazy speed.
At that time, Jegal Hyeonmong cut off ties with Dambi.
Now is the time to conserve as much magical power as possible.
‘It’s ideal here rather than backing out.’
The human-faced person is faster and more agile than you.
Even if you run away, you won’t be able to run very far, so it would be better to fight it in a cave where movement is limited.
‘If you’re not going to be able to move anyway.’
Jegal Hyunmong drew a magic circle with the tips of his feet.
I didn’t really know any way to do that.
However, he did so naturally, and as soon as the magic circle was formed, Jegal Hyunmong raised his magic wand and aimed it at the inside of the cave.
“Kaaaaaaah!”
“You must be really angry.”
Jegal Hyunmong looked at the Inmyeonjiju approaching from afar with his vision that pierced through the darkness.
The spider’s back and the person’s face were all distorted and distorted.
It wouldn’t have been strange for him to be scared, but strangely enough, he was calm.
‘Is this also thanks to Allen?’
Originally, I could never be bold in this situation.
With that thought in mind, Jegal Hyunmong swung his magic staff, created countless blades of wind, and shot them out.
Even though Inmyeonjiju knew that Jegal Hyeonmong had done something, he did not hesitate.
Intuition that comes from instinct.
This was because he intuitively felt that no matter what Zhuge Xuanmong did, he could not be harmed.
That was until the blades of wind that had been spreading out in all directions converged in one place and aimed for the eyes of the human-faced person.
“… … !”
The human face pillar jumped reflexively.
Jegal Hyunmong laughed.
“Slip.”
The spider’s foot touched the ground and slid for a moment.
Not all eight legs slid, but about half of them managed to slide.

“Kee!”
And as if waiting for that moment, something flew in and stuck to various parts of the man-faced person’s body.
It was originally a spider web of human-faced pillars spread all over the cave.
“Kaaaaaaah!”
The man-faced person screamed in rage.
He rolled over in one breath, shook off the spider webs that clung to his body, and opened his mouth to spew out venom.
‘now.’
Jegal Hyunmong picked up a magic wand.
Squeeze out the drinks.
The magical power that passed through the spell began to take on a fiery form.
The second technique was to condense it into the shape of a sphere.
And he completed the magic by using the technique of spreading drawn with the tip of his foot.
Inside the cave, dust was rising thickly.
It wasn’t just spiders jumping around.
‘It’s a good thing we have gunpowder.’
Firecrackers received at the request of the village chief.
The gunpowder inside the firecracker was now filling the cave.
It was because I mixed gunpowder when I threw the blade of wind just now.
I just used half of it up to make a loud noise, but there’s still half left.
Jegal Hyunmong pointed at the human-faced pillar with his magic wand.
“Blow out, explode.”
As the flames shot out, they burst out near the human-faced pillar, greedily devouring the surrounding air and gunpowder, growing in size.
Even though it was quite far away, it felt quite hot.
When the light, sound, and heat subsided somewhat, Jegal Hyunmong opened his eyes again and looked ahead.
The cave, which had been gaping like the mouth of a devil, was half-collapsed, and the body of the human-faced monk was covered in the debris.
It smelled spicy.
‘That’s because you’re trying to use something like poison.’
He opened his mouth to spit out the poison, so the shock must have reached his internal organs.
As I was thinking that, a loud shout was heard.
“You—! Are you okay—!”
It was Danggon’s cry.
It doesn’t seem that far, judging by the distance.
Jegal Hyunmong felt relieved inside.
I couldn’t kill the Inmyeonjiju. It was something I never wanted to do in the first place. However, it would be difficult to move as I wish for the time being, and soon, the best master, Danggon, would come running, so the matter would be concluded without difficulty.
That was the moment I thought so.
“Kaaaaaaah!”
As if in a last desperate attempt, the human-faced bird flew through the rubble of the cave.
“I knew it.”
No, to be exact, it was trying to fly in.
It certainly would have been the case if the cave debris hadn’t clung so stickily to his body.
“Keeeek!”
Unable to bear the weight of the rocks covering his body, the human-faced pillar collapsed again.
Of course, the effect did not last long because the remaining magical power of Jegal Hyunmong ended there, but it did buy some time.
That brief moment was enough.
Pfft pfft!
Danggon, who ran as fast as an island lightning, fired a dark energy faster than the island lightning, and the island lightning pierced the head of the human-faced person.
“you!”
“Thank goodness it’s not too late.”
Dang-gon was momentarily speechless when he saw Jegal Hyunmong’s appearance.
It wasn’t because of anything else.
Even though there must have been many things going on, he greeted me with such a neat appearance.
“What was that loud noise just now? And the human-faced pillar… …?”
“Didn’t you just knock down the Inmyeonjiju, Grand Master Danggon? It was truly a magnificent feat worthy of a master.”
“no.”
Danggon shook his head.
Although he was the one who cut off the airway, it was none other than Jegal Hyunmong who set the table.
Otherwise, the sight of the man-faced pillar in such a mess would be inexplicable.
“Hey, Zhuge Liang!”
“So-Mistress Dang has come too. That’s fortunate. There is a village child named Hyang-ah inside that cave. Be sure to ask So-Mistress Dang to carry her.”
“Why Hwaryeong of all people?”
Jegal Hyunmong said with a slight smile.
“I think I’m going to faint soon. So, shouldn’t you, Danggon Daehyeop, carry me?”
In fact, the condition was not good.
I used a lot of tricks to deal with the Inmyeonjiju.
Thanks to this, he succeeded in holding onto the foot of the Inmyeonjiju, but that doesn’t mean that Jegal Hyunmong didn’t use any force.
At Gwigokjangwon, I borrowed the power of incense burners and formations, but I have never used magic power in an environment like now where there was none.
Knock knock.
Jegal Hyunmong suddenly looked at the magic wand he was holding in his hand at the strange sound.
Perhaps because he had been using several magic spells in quick succession, his extremely weakened magic wand reached its limit and broke.
At the same time, it seems that the string of his patience has snapped.
“Okay, then I’m going to faint, so please prepare well and support me. Please be careful not to get hurt.”
“Are you the one who’s about to faint?”
‘Yes. Aren’t you fainting now?’
As he said that, Zhuge Xuanmong’s consciousness quickly faded away.
* * *
I didn’t have a dream.
‘It’s a shame, you seem to be sleeping quite deeply.’
Maybe it was because I had a dream just recently, but unfortunately I didn’t have a dream about Allen.
But thanks to that, I was able to sleep very deeply.
‘Yeah, I needed a break.’
If I think about it, I’ve been living such a busy life.
Perhaps, Jegal Hyunmong was extremely tired without even realizing it. He was resting without even having a proper dream.
Thinking like that, Jegal Hyunmong opened his eyes.
It was an unfamiliar place.
“Oh, you’re awake!”
“Yes. I just woke up. Is this the party house?”
“… … .”
As soon as Jegal Hyunmong woke up, the freckled maid who was preparing to make a fuss suddenly became dumbfounded.
So far, countless people have come here, fainted, and then woke up.
But now, like Zhuge Liang, there was not a single person who could calmly point out the location as soon as they woke up.
“Th, over there. How?”
In response to the maid’s question, Jegal Hyunmong raised his hand and scratched the back of his neck.
There were many reasons.
From experience, I felt like I was unconscious for quite a while this time too.
There are many things to take note of. I was exhausted from climbing the mountain in a short period of time, and I used up all my magic power.
I remembered that in Allen’s world, he also warned us to be careful not to use our magic power to its limit, which he called magic exhaustion.
When I woke up after being unconscious for so long, the bedding covering my body was so luxurious that I couldn’t believe I was in a village.
High probability of winning.
And isn’t there only one manor nearby that is so luxurious that it even costs money to make a bed?
Of course it might not be true, but I said that because it’s not really wrong and there’s no harm in it.
But Jegal Hyunmong, who was tired of talking, said.
“It just seemed like that.”
The maid dropped the basket she was holding.
“Am I really the reincarnation of Empress Wu?”
‘I should have just told you everything, even if it was annoying.’
