Episode 465
The fengjinsingae ox was genuinely surprised.
My whole body was shaking. I was shocked and scared.
That guy named Ron.
The man who had been bothering me by wearing red armor and practicing all sorts of witchcraft ran away. That was all. Because I could have chased him right away.
Because I know where you went.
I searched the entire mountain and planned out a route. It was not difficult to pinpoint where the Emperor of the West was hiding. I also felt the movements of the Hongposhin Army. This meant that he was tired.
It is foolish to chase the fish that have been caught all the way to the end. I know where Hong Po-shin-gun went. Then the fish that have been caught must be correct. What is more important is to appease the dead who have come back to life.
These were beings that could be talked to. Companions who had been together but had died. I talked to them. It didn’t take long.
Hundreds of years ago, there were people called shamans who appeared in the martial arts world.
These are the people who did not revive the dead, but turned the dead into undead, causing chaos in the world.
Also, the necromancers are the scum that committed extremely heinous and atrocious acts, such as creating ‘chimeras’ by ‘synthesizing’ dead people and animals.
I convinced him that he had been attacked by someone similar to that sorcerer. I told him again what Jeongcheonmaeng meant.
I may lose, but I will not give up.
It may seem like a contradiction, but strictly speaking, it is different. It is just a difference in connotation.
You may lose a fight, but you will not lose without taking anything away. That is the spirit of Jeongcheonmaeng.
Even if you can’t kill your opponent, you can take away at least one arm, one leg, one organ, or one eye before you die. That’s Jeongcheonmaeng.
In the end, it made sense. I was convinced.
I kicked the seat with the dead. I found it. And now this is what happened.
The Emperor of the West walks out of the cave.
The clothes he was wearing were almost rags, but the thin outer garment he was wearing strangely suited him.
He stuck the long sword he was holding into the floor and sat down on a nearby boulder.
He sighs.
Every single action, every single gesture was creepy.
He said.
“Why didn’t you come a little slower?”
The Emperor of the West, sitting in a cold sweat, was clearly exhausted. It had only been a few hours since Master Hwacheon had died. He was clearly injured, and his entire body was clearly relaxed, but why was he still overwhelming those around him in that state?
Just breathing, sitting, everything, my instincts screamed at me to run.
If you don’t want to fall behind, run away right now.
Don’t even think about gaining vain ambitions or anything like that. This is the end.
“Master Hwacheon was an interesting old man.”
A small smile appears on the Emperor’s lips.
“It was ugly at first. It was disgusting, but in the end it was uninhabitable. Jim was truly amazed. Because at that moment, the disgusting appearance from the beginning was nowhere to be found. But.”
The emperor snapped his fingers.
Taak-!

Kwaaaaang-!!
The deafening noise was the sound of every single person in the room hitting their head on the floor. Everyone except Ron did.
Some were bleeding, others were groaning in pain, but not a single one of them was able to get up from their position. Of course, this includes the Death Knights.
“What the hell are you guys?”
The Emperor stands up from his seat. He doesn’t even have a black magazine.
He just kept walking. He kicked the head of one of the unmanned men who was lying down.
Plop-!
A headless corpse falls to the floor.
“The eyes of the salt-bearer I first saw were cloudy. They were full of greed. Twisted desires, dirty desires. There was a very lacking man in the Western Continent named Arthur Gunnar, and he was just like that. He gave off the same smell. That’s how you are in my eyes right now.”
There was a small smile on the Emperor’s lips, but it was a very cold smile.
“Jeongcheonmaeng may lose, but it will not surrender?”
Where did I hear that? I heard it when Ron and a warrior were fighting in front of the gate of Jeongcheonmaeng before fighting Hwacheon Daesa.
“Just be honest. Why can’t you just say that you covet Jim’s head, that you want to become a hero by cutting Jim’s head and become the new leader of Jeongcheon, that you want to become a part of history?”
The emperor laughed heartily.
“You make up excuses to cover up your dirty desires, and you use those excuses to justify your dirty desires. What is so surprising? What is there to be so afraid of?”
Crumb, rumb.
“If you are armed as a warrior, you should speak with that weapon. Why are you in politics? You are not warriors. You are just children with power, collaborators, children who create situations by throwing a tantrum when they want a toy, dragging in everyone who is not related to the situation, making the other person a criminal, and stealing the toy. That is who I see you as.”
The unmanned beings continued to die. More than half of them were already dead. They weren’t even cut with swords. Their heads were just kicked like toys.
If the intention was to make the death scene ugly, it worked. The emperor, who appears to be a prosecutor, uses his feet instead of his sword. His head explodes with his feet.
It is humiliating for the person being subjected to it.
This is a man with a bad mouth.
The wind chime of the ox crow shouts.
“Bullshit-!”
The Emperor turned his gaze. His eyes met with Usagi’s.
“Jeongcheonmaeng may be defeated, but… … .”
The emperor chuckles and laughs.
Usagi stopped talking. He felt humiliated.
And only then did I realize why I was so overwhelmed by that man.
It wasn’t just a difference in strength. Those eyes.
Those two fu*king eyes.
Yeah, that’s it. Those damn eyes that seem to see through every desire you have.
Usagi’s wavering eyes find stability. As death approaches, there is no need to overthink it.

pup.
A bitter smile forms on the lips.
“Jeongcheon Maengju, I wanted to sit down and see you once.”

The emperor laughs.
“In my opinion, you are the worst kid. Those kids don’t know anything, but you know something.”
The emperor walks in.
“Usually the ones who make a big deal out of it are the ones who know something. Like you.”
Those were the last words Usaga heard in this world. The Emperor’s feet. Crush-!
The head of the wind chime blew off.
* * *
He also blew up the heads of the remaining drones. Then he turned his head to one side. A man was standing frozen in the distance.
hmm.
His name is Sura Dojo, right?
He just ignored me. I was dying from pain and didn’t want to bother going that far.
He just fell down on a nearby rock.
“master…….”
I looked up and saw Ron. Our Ron, he was quite a sight. He was bleeding from his shoulder, his leg, and his entire body. Fortunately, there were no fatal injuries. More importantly,
“What the heck is that?”
Ron chuckles.
“Isn’t it your place to talk about others?”
I don’t know because I don’t have a mirror, but I think I look pretty bad.
Even while they were exchanging laughter like that, the Asura Emperor was standing frozen against the wall on the other side.
“Why is he doing that over there?”
“……that is.”
Ron takes something out of his pocket. It is a book titled “Surasimbeop.”
“I thought you came to keep your promise.”
I looked at the Shura Challenge with slightly different eyes. Wow, there are more interesting people in this eastern continent than I thought.
He spoke in a low voice.
“Yu Je-ha.”
“… … Uh… … Me?”
The trembling voice aside.
“Who else here besides you has a name like Yoo Je-ha?”
“… … .”
“Come here.”
Yoo Jae-ha’s body trembles. I don’t know for sure whether it’s because he’s scared or because he feels awe, but he’s definitely nervous.
As I made a rough gesture, the energy that had been covering the surroundings was recovered. Yoo Je-ha slowly approached me with a much more relaxed expression on his face.
He stopped about 5 meters away from me.
“Your face looks like it was destroyed, but you look better than I thought.”

“… … He, he received treatment diligently, so he should be fine… … right.”
I didn’t think he was that kind of guy. Wasn’t he a really hearty guy?
I ended up laughing hysterically.
“How old are you?”
“… … I am 49 years old this year.”
Compared to the salt mine.
“You’re young. So what are you going to do?”
“I was just going to run away after seeing what happened… … but didn’t you call me?”
That’s right.
“If you have nothing to do, do you want to come to the Western Continent?”
“……to?”
“While you’re here, tell Ron about this method of asurashim.”
Yoo Je-ha didn’t say anything for a while. He just looked at me with his mouth slightly open.
Then I guess something came to mind.
“In my opinion, she is still the princess of the Demon Palace. She has tens of thousands of people under her command… … .”
“Then why don’t you bring them too?”
“… … Really, are you serious about what you’re saying right now?”
“Then am I joking around with you right now? I’m going to have a hard time.”
“Ahem.”
“If you have any concerns, think about it and tell me later. Go now.”
Yoo Je-ha flinches as he tries to turn around.
“What are you going to do?”
“what?”
“… … I don’t know the details, but there are probably over 7,000 Jeongcheon Alliance warriors coming here. Each and every one of them is a top-tier expert, and there are quite a few super-top-tier experts mixed in. They say that there are also first-class experts who are not top-tier experts joining, so that number will increase even more.”
I had a rough idea. I just didn’t know the numbers.
“Rumors have spread throughout the martial arts world that the man who killed Hwacheon Daesa is now on the verge of death. In this situation, if there is anyone who kills you, he will gain immense fame and become a hero. He may even become the leader of Jeongcheon.”
“Like the guy who just got kicked out?”
“Yes, but.”
“but?”
“… … It’ll be quiet soon. Because.”
“Why?”
Yoo Je-ha takes a look at my body. It’s not unpleasant or anything. Yoo Je-ha’s eyes are filled with a mixture of admiration, fear, and awe.
Yoo Jae-ha says the last thing.
“It’s better than I thought, so I can’t help but be quiet. Or things might get worse.”
It looks like he has something else to say. As expected, he opens his mouth as I just stare blankly.

“… … I’ll think about going to the Western Continent for a bit. Before that, would you like to make a deal with me?”
“transaction?”
“As the Lord of the Palace, I formally invite you, the Emperor of the West.”
A smile forms on my lips.
“Is that the deal?”
“I am a man who knows his place. I cannot guarantee absolute safety, but I will take care of the remaining rascals that are coming. It may seem foolish to you, but the power of the Demon Palace is enough to take care of one axis of the Jeongcheon Alliance.”
This is fun.
“Although I am called a warrior of the Jeongcheon Alliance, strictly speaking, I am neutral. I did not want to get involved with the Sacheon Alliance, and I did not want to get involved with the Jeongcheon Alliance, but I still thought that the evil ones of the Jeongcheon Alliance were a little better than the crazy ones of the Sacheon Alliance. That is why I belong to the Jeongcheon Alliance.”
“Why are you saying that? Like you’re making excuses.”
“Perhaps that is an excuse. I have one thing to say. Although I am called a warrior of the Jeongcheon Alliance, I have no intention of fighting with you. I have no intention of attacking you or anything like that. I probably will never do that in my life. I am telling you now that you should understand that.”
Sure, I’ve mentioned this a few times, but this guy who’s supposed to be Yoo Je-ha is surprisingly interesting.
But since you said it was a deal, I mean you want something.
“What do you want?”
“… … I want to cross the line between life and death.”
Yoo Jae-ha walks over. In fact, he didn’t walk very far. He just takes one step and falls to his knees.
