< Operation to subdue Shi-Balaam (7) - Get out of the way >
‘It’s finally starting.’
Joo Da-hye stared straight ahead with a stern expression. At the end of her gaze, there was the Demon King’s Castle, which had grown more than twice as large as when she first saw it.
Gooooooo.
Dark, dark clouds covered half of the Demon King’s castle. Boom! Thunder and lightning struck through the clouds. The sight of the Demon King’s castle, pale and reflected every time, was incredibly grotesque.
Kookookookookung!
Earthquakes continued to occur on the ground. However, people who were now accustomed to earthquakes were able to maintain their balance and endure to some extent.
Joo Dahye looked back. Behind her, thousands of troops were gathered. They were troops gathered from all the shelters.
‘Can I really lead this many people properly?’
Due to the strong recommendation (and coercion) of the person in charge, Joo Da-hye became the commander-in-chief of this operation.
Countless lives live and die on one word.
At that fact, Joo Da-hye felt her body shrinking. The weight of responsibility made it hard for her to breathe.
But it must be done.
‘···Should I give a speech to raise morale?’
Joo Da-hye moved her lips and then decided to stop. Not only did she not have the talent to do that, but the soldiers gathered here were already more than prepared.
Phew···.
Joo Da-hye took a deep breath and spoke to the soldier next to her.
“I told you it’s starting soon.”
“All right!”
The signalman was busy sending out hand signals. After the Demon King’s fog engulfed the city, electronic equipment became unusable.
Joo Da-hye looked with a dark expression as the soldiers prepared to fight, drawing their guns and swords.
‘How many of these will survive today?’
Most of the soldiers gathered here were not regular soldiers. They were volunteers, civilians, except for the wounded, who carried guns and swords.
Among them, there were faces that were too old to go to the battlefield, and faces that were too young.
But Joo Da-hye couldn’t tell them to go back.
In order to conquer the Demon King’s Castle over there, we need at least one more soldier.
‘My job is to minimize the sacrifices of these people.’
Joo Da-hye clenched her fists and vowed to herself.
At that moment, the man approached her. Seeing Joo Da-hye with her shoulders tense, the man snickered.
“Don’t be so nervous. It’s okay to make mistakes.”
Joo Da-hye wanted to resemble the gentleman’s composure even just a little bit. So she forced a smile and answered.
“There is no mistake in my dictionary. We will reclaim Busan, which was lost today, and write a history of victory.”
Even just saying that seemed to ease the tension a little. The man smiled and tapped Joo Da-hye on the shoulder.
“Cheer up, Lieutenant Joo. See you later.”
The great man returned to his seat. There, the seven teams of superhumans, the warriors of the Heavenly Demon Sect, and the superhumans from Busan who had undergone hellish training were waiting.
Joo Da-hye muttered quietly as she watched the back of the person walking away.
“···I was promoted to captain now.”
After a while, all units sent signals indicating that they were ready.
“after···.”
Joo Da-hye took a few deep breaths and then shouted with a loud voice filled with her inner strength.
“All forces-! Forward!”
The soldiers began to advance at a steady pace, keeping pace with each other.
As the humans advanced, there was a reaction from the Demon King’s Castle. Balam was also watching them.
-Kwakwakwakwakwakwa!
The dark clouds surrounding the Demon King’s Castle began to swirl rapidly. At the same time, lightning struck from within the dark clouds.
Woof- bang! Woof- bang! Bang bang bang!
The zombies gathered around the Demon King’s Castle screamed, stimulated by the light and sound.
Krrrrrrrr!
Kiyaaaaah!
At that moment, the will of the Demon King Balaam took hold of the zombies.
[It is the king’s command. Exterminate all humans!]
Like unleashed hunting dogs, the zombies began to run madly towards the human army.
Doo doo doo doo doo doo doo!
The earth screamed at the advance of the zombie army, a mixture of humans and monsters. Their numbers numbered in the tens of thousands. Dust clouds rose tens of meters high.
The soldiers trembled in fear at the sight of the zombie army rushing in like a tidal wave. The difference in force was nearly tenfold.
The distance between the two sides quickly became shorter.
-1km to collision.
The ranks were broken and the soldiers began to become uneasy. The pace of advance gradually slowed.
“Don’t break the battle line!”
Joo Da-hye encouraged the soldiers, shouting at the top of her lungs.
-500m until impact.
“Ugh···.”
The soldiers’ legs were shaking and they had difficulty walking properly. They barely managed to maintain formation by supporting each other.
-300 meters until impact.
“I, I can’t do it!”
There were a few soldiers who threw down their guns and ran away, but no one blamed them.
-200 meters until impact.

The soldiers gritted their teeth as the waves of disaster loomed before their eyes. However, no one ran away once they got this far.
“f*ck!”
“Let’s do it!”
The soldiers who remained until the end aimed their guns straight at the enemy, prepared to die.
Joo Da-hye, who was in the lead, unknowingly raised her divine power.
‘If I use my power now…’
Her special ability is
At that moment, the great man’s voice was heard.
[Save your divine power. It’s not time to use it yet.]
“but···.”
[Listen to me. This place is good enough with Bongmajin.]
And then the man fired a signal flare into the sky. It was what he thought was the most appropriate timing.
If he had used the Seal of Honor from the beginning, Balam wouldn’t have sent out a separate army of zombies like that.
-Phew! Phew! Phew!
Yellow and red firecrackers exploded one after another in the air.
At the same time, the Three-Eyed Blood Demon, who had been waiting for a signal from afar, activated the Seal of Evil.
Woof woof woof woof!
A massive amount of magical power surged from the land extending over a radius of several tens of kilometers centered around the Demon King’s Castle.
It is a barrier that seals away demons, created by experts from various dimensions putting their heads together.
As soon as the Seal of Justice was activated, a great change occurred on the battlefield.
Pusssssss···.
“The fog is clearing!”
“Zombies!”
The fog that had filled the city quickly dissipated, and the zombies that had been surging forward like a tidal wave began to lose their strength and stagger.
Creak, creak···.
Kieeeek···.
The zombies’ speed dropped noticeably as if they were drunk. There were countless cases of them falling over and being trampled by the zombies that were running after them.
Crunch! Crunch!
Joo Da-hye didn’t miss that moment. She said, aiming her rifle.
“Open fire!”
Taang!
The first bullet pierced the forehead of the zombie in the lead. Starting with that, the other soldiers and troopers also opened fire.
“Eww!”
“죽어 이 개새끼들아!”
Bang bang bang bang bang bang!
Bang bang bang bang bang bang!
The zombies fell like autumn leaves. The zombies, who had become slow like snails due to the effects of the Bongmajin, were just easy targets to hit.
The vanguard of the zombie army was instantly destroyed. The next wave was the same.
The number of zombies, which was ten times greater than the number of recaptured troops, was instantly reduced by half, and then by half again.
Wow!
The soldiers, their spirits rising, shouted.
“Don’t get excited! Stay in line and make sure you kill them properly!”
The soldiers who received Joo Dahye’s orders moved busily. They put bullets in the foreheads of fallen zombies and cut off their necks with swords.
The recapture force won an overwhelming victory in the first battle. Joo Da-hye clenched her fist.
‘The Vice President was right. We might be able to win easier than we thought!’
Joo Da-hye tried to continue this momentum.
“Scatter and destroy!”
Bang bang bang bang bang bang bang!
Bang bang bang bang bang bang bang!
Bullets rained down, and the zombies collapsed like scarecrows. A bullet struck the forehead of a fallen zombie.
The recapture army quickly annihilated the zombies that had been neutralized by the power of Bongmajin and advanced. The zombie army that had filled the city collapsed like dominoes.
“Hahahaha!”
“They’re all fake!”
The recapture force was thrilled by their overwhelming first victory.
And then, the entire Demon King’s castle began to shake and an incredible amount of magical energy began to flow out.
Kwakwakwakwakwa!!
It looked like the face of a demon king enraged by a surprise attack from an enemy.
The man smiled brightly as he looked at the sight.
“Hey kid. We haven’t even started yet.”
***
Daein did not participate in the first battle at all.
And I had no intention of participating in the second battle either.
First of all, the plan was to conserve strength as much as possible.
‘And we must drain Balaam’s magic power as much as possible.’
There is a saying that even a shit dog eats half of its food when it gets into its own territory.
The Demon King who had entered the Demon King’s Castle was incomparably stronger than that.
That’s why the man intended to preserve all his strength until the very end.
The king sent a message to Joo Da-hye.
[The second round will start soon. Now, the real thing starts, so get ready.]
As soon as she heard the news, Joo Da-hye gave an order to her entire army.
“phalanx!”
The scattered soldiers gathered together in a tight group. After a while, dozens of gates began to open in front of the Demon King’s Castle.
Zeeeeing! Zeeeeing! Zeeeeing!
Zeeeeing! Zeeeeing! Zeeeeing!
Beasts from the demon world poured out from dozens of gates.
Balaam’s specialty is summoning magic.
Each monster, several meters tall, raised its head and roared.
Kyaaaaaaaah-!
Kwaaaaaaaaaa-!
The demons roared ferociously and began to run toward the earth, shaking. Bongmajin suppressed the power of the demons, but the effect was not great compared to the zombies.
“What is that!”
The startled soldiers screamed.
However, perhaps because of the great victory in the first battle, the soldiers’ unrest was not as great as expected. No more soldiers deserted.
That fact was very fortunate for Joo Da-hye.
“Everyone, stay where you are!”
Doo doo doo doo doo doo!
Looking at the demons rushing out of the gate, Joo Da-hye mentally measured the timing.
‘A little bit closer, a little bit closer···.’
Having won her first battle, she felt more relaxed. She even glanced around to look at someone.
The man was nodding his head while looking at her.
[Let’s try it at full power this time.]
Joo Da-hye nodded and used all her might to release her
‘It was a good thing I saved it for the zombies.’
At that moment, a dazzling light enveloped the world.
-Paaaaaaaaaaaaaah!
It was a much brighter light than the man had expected. The man looked at her with surprised eyes.
‘At this level, she’s almost like a saint?’
Joo Da-hye’s divine power now was almost on par with the divine power of Joo Dark during his prime that Dae-in knew of in the past.
“It seems like Taecheongsingong and I have great compatibility.”
The demons of the demon world, who had been given the power of a saint, rolled on the ground in terrible pain and screamed.
Kyaaaaah!
Kkaaaak!
On the other hand, the soldiers felt their whole bodies filled with strength.
“ah···.”
“The wound···.”
Swish.
The wounds healed on their own, and fatigue disappeared as if it had been washed away. A sense of awe for Saint Judae Hye arose naturally.
The saint, engulfed in light, gave orders to the soldiers.
“attack-!”
Wow!
The soldiers, full of morale, rushed at the demons rolling on the ground in pain. They fired bullets until their magazines were empty, and stabbed the demons in the necks and hearts with their swords.
Phew! Phew! Phew!
The demons summoned from the gate began to be slaughtered in an instant.
The man watched the scene with his back to the road.
“The second wave has also been cleared.”
I looked up at the Demon King’s Castle and saw dark clouds swirling madly.
Kwakwakwakwakwakwakwa!
Balaam’s immense wrath was felt here. The Demon King’s castle was spewing out a massive amount of magical energy.
Woof woof woof!
A new gate appeared in front of the Demon King’s Castle. This time, it was much larger.
What appeared there was a group of
Grow up-!!
It was a monster with incredible regenerative powers and strength, with a size of 5 meters. Bullets could not even penetrate it.
Although they only numbered a hundred, they were an absolute impossible task for ordinary soldiers to deal with.
“So I prepared.”
But on this side, there were Busan superhumans who had trained by going back and forth on the Jordan River Express for several days.
Exactly!
As the Great One snapped his fingers, the waiting superhumans rushed forward.
“Thank you, everyone!”
“Mundi jasukes-!”
The Busan superhumans poured out all the accumulated resentment and anger and attacked the group of
Woohoo!
At the same time, the divine power of Saint Judae Hye was poured over their bodies like a blessing. A milky aura formed over the weapons of the superhumans.
Chook! Choooooah!
A clash. The result is an overwhelming victory for the superhumans.
The dark giants, who were first weakened by Bongmajin and then exposed to Joo Dahye’s divine power, were unable to deal with the strengthened superhumans.
The soldiers raised their guns and shouted at the sight of the superhumans overthrowing the dark giants.
“Wow!”
The army that had annihilated even the dark giants continued to advance.
Kugugugugugugugugu!
The Demon King’s castle shook madly. But it was no longer a symbol of fear.
“let’s go-!!”
The recapture army advanced towards the Demon King’s Castle without hesitation.
Every time, the Demon King’s Castle poured out all kinds of evil spirits and tried to stop them with black magic, but
“I will stop it! Go forward!”
Woof woof woof!
The powerful divine power of Judae-hye that protects the entire army,
“They’re all straight!”
The tearful struggles of the Busan superhumans who have crossed the Jordan River dozens of times and are no longer afraid of anything.
“···It’s our turn.”
“I can’t disappoint my savior.”
The warriors of the Cheonmasingyo took turns solving all the problems.
Thud, thud.
The Great Man walked along the path they had made. Occasionally, monsters would attack him, but they were blocked by Wang Gu-ho and Sirutteok before they could reach the Great Man.
The man looked around and smiled happily.
“This is it.”
No matter how strong you become, it’s best not to fight directly if possible.
And when fighting, it’s best to win easily.
Daein was sick of close combat where his life was at stake. He had done that plenty of times before.
“Team Leader! I can see the main gate of the Demon King’s Castle!”
Before they knew it, the recapture army had broken through all of the Demon King’s forces and arrived in front of the Demon King’s castle.
The man rolled up his sleeves and stepped forward. It was time for him to step forward.
“Move aside.”
The Great Man held the Cheonma Sword in his hand. It was the first sword he had held since the battle began.
