Slurp.
The man muttered as he put the Cheonma Sword back into its scabbard.
“It doesn’t help as much as I thought.”
At his feet, a Death Warrior with every joint of his body shattered was writhing like a bug.
[Krr···rr···uuu···]
A skull with cracks here and there looked up at the man with a look of resentment. Blue flames flickered feebly within its empty pupils.
Death Warriors are considered the highest level of undead.
In his memories, he was a monster who, under the orders of the Demon King, led thousands of undead troops and wiped out a city.
He was a guy who was a bit lacking as a training partner for Cheonma Shingong.
“Well, you’re not a general-level monster who received the Demon King’s baptism.”
Knock knock.
The man kicked the Death Warrior’s skull with his foot. The Death Warrior could not resist and only growled softly.
[Krrrr···rr···.]
It was then that the Three-Eyed Blood Monster approached the man.
“I, savior.”
As the man turned his head, the Three-Eyed Blood Demon quickly continued speaking with a very surprised expression.
“If you permit, may I take this monster and study it?”
“This? What are you going to do with it?”
The three-eyed monster’s eyes sparkled like a child expecting a gift.
“It seems to have something in common with the legendary Cheonjiangsi. Since it is a field I have been researching for a long time… I would like to ask you for your help.”
The man looked into those earnest eyes and thought for a moment. The thought did not last long.
After all, he wasn’t the kind of guy who would give something good to someone just because he was going to kill them.
“But if it succeeds, give me the patent.”
“I’m sorry, but what is a patent···.”
When Daein gave a brief explanation about patent rights, Sam-an-hyeol-gwae knelt on one knee and said.
thud!
“How dare I covet the Savior’s belongings! I just want to fulfill my long-held desire. All glory goes to the Savior.”
Rather, it was embarrassing for the person to bring it up.
“Ahem. If you say so, I can’t refuse. Alright. Take it.”
“Your name!”
In this way, Death Warrior fell into the hands of the Three-Eyed Demon and became a test subject.
After the patent issue was resolved, the man called to the soldiers waiting about a hundred meters behind him.
“Okay, now that we’re done cleaning up, let’s get started.”
The soldiers walked by with blank expressions. Their gazes at the man did not seem to be of a fellow human being.
‘Does this make sense?’
‘Even if you’re a superhuman…’
There was nothing in the space within a radius of one hundred meters centered around where the man was standing.
Just dust.
After creating such a scene, the man stood calmly and spoke to the soldiers.
“What’s the problem? We need to install the pillars quickly so we can go back to headquarters and rest.”
“Yes, yes!”
“sorry!”
The soldiers immediately began digging. They dug the ground, erected pillars, and arranged the magic stones according to the rules of the formation. They were so quick that the Great Man did not have to urge them twice.
However, while the other soldiers were frightened by the great man’s audacity, Platoon Leader No Jae-wook looked at the great man’s back with eyes burning with a sense of mission.
‘I’ve decided. I’m going to write that person’s story.’
In his head, the table of contents for ‘That Day, I Saw the Back of the Hero’ was being created.
“What’s going on since a while ago? Do you have a cold···.”
The man shivered slightly from the unknown cold.
***
While the soldiers were busy digging and installing the last pillar of the fortification, the man kept watch over the surrounding area.
In fact, I was constantly thinking about something else.
‘Cheonma Shingong is now a 7-star. But something is a bit… uncomfortable.’
Since the Great Man had already mastered the peerless divine art of Pacheon Shingong, the speed at which his Heavenly Demon Art’s achievements increased was also faster than he had imagined.
But as the level of Cheonma Shingong’s achievements increased, the great man felt uncomfortable, as if his insides were swollen.
But I still have no idea what that is exactly.
“If I just know this, I have a feeling that my achievements will definitely increase···.”
It was when the man was thinking with his arms crossed.
“hmm?”
The man’s head turned to one side, and soon his new form disappeared like a mirage.
“Huh!”
The man who had been hiding from afar and spying on the man fell backwards, stumbling on his butt, when the man appeared before his eyes.
“citizen?”
As the elder raised one eyebrow and spoke, the man fell to the floor and begged.
“I’m sorry! I heard fighting in the distance and wondered what was going on… Please spare me!”
The man had a haggard look, as if he had suffered a lot. There were hollows under his eyes and he looked thin, as if he had starved for quite some time.
The man looked at the woman carefully.

‘I’m not a spy brainwashed by the Demon King. I’m just an ordinary human being.’
So I didn’t understand any more. The man stood him up and said.
“are you okay?”
“Yes, yes···.”
“Come with me. I’ll give you something to eat.”
The man took the man to where the soldiers were working. Platoon Leader Noh Jae-wook discovered the two men and came running out of breath.
“What’s going on?”
“I am a civilian. Please treat my injuries and give me some food.”
“I, I’m fine.”
The man said he would refuse, but when Sergeant Noh Jae-wook handed him the combat rations, he began to eat them hastily on the spot.
After a while, the man who had half of his combat rations left carefully put them in his bosom.
Then he looked around and said.
“Um… I’ll be going now. Thank you for the food.
“Where are you going? Come with us to the shelter.”
Sergeant Noh Jae-wook asked with a look of incomprehension. But the man shook his head.
“No, I just like it here. Don’t worry about it.”
And before anyone could stop him, he jumped up from his seat and ran away.
No, he would have tried to run away. If only the invisible energy hadn’t caught him and kept him immobile.
“Why, why are you doing this···.”
The man looked at the frozen man with his arms crossed. His invisible guard was holding him back.
“The woman hiding behind the building over there. Is that your wife?”
The man’s face turned pale for a moment. He shouted with a look of injustice on his face.
“We didn’t do anything wrong! Let us go! We’ll just go back to where we came from!”
The man laughed in vain.
“Oh my. Who is going to eat it? First, tell your wife to come over here. I want to talk to you for a moment.”
At that moment, the man shouted with all his might.
“Honey! Run away!!”
“No···.”
The man felt the ‘feelings’ he had been feeling from afar start to hesitate and then gradually get further away.
The man clicked his tongue and muttered.
“I can understand why you’re running away, but… you rascal. Does that solve the problem?”
WHEEK!
The figure of the great man disappeared from the man’s sight.
After a while, the man reappeared carrying the woman on his shoulder. When the man placed the woman down in front of the man, the man hugged the woman.
“Honey! Are you okay?”
“I’m sorry. I tried to run away and leave you behind. But if I get caught….”
“What are you sorry for! I told you not to follow me from the beginning!”
The man blocked the path of his family. He took out a kitchen knife, which he usually carried in his arms, and aimed it at the man.
But the hand holding the sword was trembling so violently that it was pitiful.
“Uh, let us go. We’re not going to the shelter. We don’t need any of it, so just let us go!”
“······.”
The soldiers who were working also stopped their work and looked at the desperate-looking couple. However, no one interfered without permission.
“ha···.”
The man scratched his head as if he was annoyed. His gaze was directed at the bundle that the woman was holding tightly as if it was precious to her.
“How many months?”
“!!”
The woman flinched and hugged the blanket tightly. But that did not stop the small life from breathing out from within.
The man sighed and approached the woman.
“Give it to me.”
“Don’t touch my child!”
A man with a sword lunged at the man. The man dodged the attack easily and then tripped the man.
“Sir, please calm down.”
As the man approached, the woman began to shed tears and took a step back.
“Please, please don’t kill our baby…”
“Well, I said I won’t kill you?”
The man gently snatched the swaddling blanket from the woman’s arms as she cried and backed away. The woman, who had her baby taken away, collapsed as if she had collapsed.
“Let’s see.”
The man lifted the sack.
It was a newborn baby whose eyes were barely open. Black spots were spreading across his face as he struggled to breathe.
The man spoke in a calm voice.
“I guess I got infected.”
At that moment, sighs of regret erupted from the soldiers watching them from the surrounding area.
“Fortunately, I haven’t completely turned into a zombie yet···.”
At those words, Sergeant Noh Jae-wook quickly approached the man and spoke.
“I’ll have a squad take you to Lieutenant Ju Da-hye right away. If you receive treatment right away, your condition will improve.”
After the Imdokyang vein was opened by the great man, Joo Da-hye was called a saint and treated numerous infected patients in the shelter.
This baby also had a chance of being saved if she was taken to Joo Da-hye in time.
“Oh, our baby···.”
“Can you save me?”
The baby’s parents looked at the man in disbelief.
From what they had heard, they knew that the shelter would immediately dispose of the infected. So instead of going to the shelter, the couple hid above ground and held out.
It wasn’t a false rumor. In fact, until a few days ago, there were more shelters disposing of infected people.
Noh Jae-wook spoke to reassure the child’s parents.
“Don’t worry. If you follow us to the shelter, we will be able to treat the child.”
“iced coffee···”
“Thank you, God···!”
The child’s parents shed tears of emotion and bowed their heads repeatedly in gratitude.
But a happy ending did not come easily to this family.
The man who was examining the child shook his head.
“It’s already too late.”
Wow···
The baby’s eyes began to turn black.
In this state, it would be a few dozen minutes at the shortest, or a couple of hours at the longest.
Even if they arrived just in time, there was no guarantee that Joo Da-hye would be saved.
dump.
The baby’s parents knelt.
“That can’t be….”
“If only we had known a little sooner…”
They clutched their chests and sobbed, “Ugh, ugh.” The despair that swept over them was dozens of times greater when they heard that the child they could have saved was going to die.
“······.”
The man stared at the sight. It was a sight he had seen many times in his past life. Therefore, he was not greatly moved by the sight.
Of course, that doesn’t mean it’s okay.
The man sighed softly and muttered.
“Don’t expect too much. Just give it a try.”
The man placed his hand on the baby’s chest. Then, using the Heavenly Demonic Spirit, he breathed energy into the baby’s body.
‘Because I used the Heavenly Demonic Power to drive out the poison of Balam that had entered my body before. Maybe this too···.’
Tsk tsk tsk.
The Heavenly Demon God, which had reached the 7th level, gently penetrated the baby’s body. The Great Man controlled the energy as delicately as possible so that the baby would not be hurt.
It wasn’t an easy task. Cheonma Shingong was the most hegemonic martial art in the world.
‘As gently as possible.’
The Great One concentrated all the magical energy spread throughout the baby’s body into one place, the Dantian, and began to burn it all at once.
Tsk, tsk, tsk!
Inside the baby’s body, the great man’s heavenly magic and the demon energies of the Demon King Balam fought fiercely.
In the process, the power of the Great Man seeped into every vein in the baby’s body.
In the martial arts world, a similar process was called beolmosesu (伐毛洗髓).
After a while, the man slowly removed his hand from the baby’s chest and exhaled.
“Phew···.”
At the same time, the black spots on the baby’s body began to disappear little by little. Those who saw this were shocked.
“Oh, a stain···!”
“It’s a miracle!”
The soldiers glared at him, and the baby’s parents approached him with their mouths covered.
The man returned the baby to its mother. At that moment, the baby, who had been panting for breath, began to cry loudly.
Oh my god!
“Thank you. Thank you···!”
The baby’s mother held the baby carefully, and the father kept bending down.
But the man was not listening to their voices. After handing the baby over to its mother, he quietly closed his eyes.
“······.”
To people, his appearance looked like that of a saint. Noh Jae-wook in particular had to cover his mouth with his hand.
If I hadn’t done that, I wouldn’t have been able to control the emotions that were rushing in.
‘Is this how people who met Jesus or Buddha felt?’
As if reading Noh Jae-wook’s thoughts, a soft smile appeared on the man’s lips.
In fact, the person felt very good.
Because just now, while handling the Heavenly Demonic Spirit inside the baby’s body, I realized the true nature of the uncomfortable feeling I felt every time I used the Heavenly Demonic Spirit.
Still with his eyes closed, the man muttered to himself.
“That was it?”
