Episode 168: The Empress of Massacre -3-
‘under.’
I was momentarily absorbed in the emotion.
It was only recently that I was unilaterally attacked by the Empress of Massacre.
I managed to buy some time by fighting with the closest opponent, but in the end, I was left on the verge of death by a single blow to the heavens and earth.
Aegis, Iron Fist, Iron Armor, and the defensive traits I’ve been saving up.
If just one of these had been missing, I would have died.
In fact, Cho Cheol’s protective suit was destroyed beyond repair.
But now?
What about the second duel, the revenge match?
I won.
Even though my head was burning and I was sweating profusely from changing the characteristics of each movement, I won.
And that too after overcoming a one-level difference.
‘ha ha ha!’
I would have laughed like crazy if people weren’t watching.
“Congratulations, teacher!”
Baek So-rin jumped up and down.
“I knew you would win, teacher! Even the Empress of Massacre is nothing in front of you! She’s just a passing extra!”
“Extra 1? It would be unfair for the superhumans who died at the hands of the Slaughter Empress to hear that.”
“That’s right. That girl has defeated the Sword Master before, right?”
“That’s right.”
That’s why she was nicknamed Empress.
The combination of Yodo Masamune, the Master of the Sword, and the Destruction of Heaven and Earth was terrifying.
It’s more of a scam and a total fraud, but it’s a combination of a blank body and trait switching.
“Hoooo.”
“Whoa.”
Janet and Carly seem to be at a loss for words.
My mind was blown and I sat down in my seat.
It’ll be hard.
At only level 4 and 3, he was able to withstand the slaughter trait.
Look at other people.
Look at Seo Woojin, who is at level 6.
You’re looking at me, Baek So-rin, almost in a daze.
That’s normal.
I looked around.
“Who else but the Empress of Carnage?”
“uh?”
Baek So-rin made a bewildered face.
“By the way, there’s no one here?”
“No, there was.”
You can see it when you put on the earplugs.
Secret passage beyond the wall.
There is a space that was originally designed to pour out to where I and the Empress of Slaughter fought.
It was full when the battle started.
So that the Empress of Slaughter can come out at the signal.
But while I was fighting the slaughter queen, everyone got out and escaped through the secret passage.
I couldn’t help but laugh.
This may not have been the original plan of the Empress of Massacre.
He probably killed me in one fell swoop and then tried to capture my companions and do something to them.
But what can I do?
You lost in a one-on-one?
Is there just an ugly head left rolling around?
‘It is absolutely forbidden to let your guard down.’
The slaughter empress who was so angry that she put a huge bounty on me.
That anger and the memory of the easy victory just a few days ago drove the slaughter empress to her death.
I understand.
It’s nearly impossible for a person to become completely transformed and stronger in just a few months.
“Congratulations!”
“You’ve defeated the ultimate martial artist!”
“It’s a great feat. It’s truly a great feat!”
“I heard that Cheok Jun-gyeong became a sword master at level 6. Doesn’t the Mukho sword master also appear in history books later?”
“Even if the Lion King comes back to life, I don’t think he’ll be able to beat the Mukho Sword Master!”
Everyone had a say.
A clearly excited face.
I was the one who won, but I was celebrating as if I had won.
Except for one person.
Seo Woo Jin.
He says he’s congratulating her, but strangely his face looks gloomy.

Blurry eyes scanned Baek So-rin, Janet, and Carly.
Does it bother you that you’re kneeling before the Empress of Slaughter?
But it is an act of God.
If they hadn’t had the Thousand-Year-Old Nature, the Innate Spirit, and the Blood of the Goddess, the three would have succumbed to the slaughter trait.
“Let’s go in.”
I went inside, waving my arms.
Aegis makes its presence known by making a clattering noise.
Strangely enough, it feels like Aegis is sticking to me.
It feels like it’s not just a simple shield, but a part of your arm.
[Shield] trait.
Obtained by blocking the Empress of Massacre’s Tsunami Sword Technique with a shield one by one.
‘There are two left.’
So far, I have acquired four shield-related traits.
Shield magic, shield block, shield slam, shield wall.
Bringing just two more will unlock the Shield Expert trait.
The head of the slaughter empress was put in a golf bag.
If you submit it to the police station, you could receive a huge reward.
“Did he abduct his own men?”
“No. I was lying in ambush.”
“I don’t see a single person.”
“They ran away because their leader died.”
“ah…….”
Running away is really fast.
Almost outside the secret passage, out of range of the ear’s sights.
I’m chasing it, but I don’t know if I can catch it.
“You won’t be able to escape.”
Seo Woo-jin said that he had regained his composure.
“Our staff is completely occupied outside. The CEO and Vice-CEO are also here. If the Empress of Massacre is not here, it will be difficult to escape.”
I agreed.
Because the guys I saw with my ears were really at the level of the remnants.
There wasn’t a single level 6.
The highest is level 5. Levels 3 and 4 are the main ones.
The first security representative and deputy representative are both level 6, so they should be easy to catch.
Episode 1, The Complete End of the Seoul Terror.
In terms of games, you would only occasionally appear in sub-quests, and there would be no surprise quests or regional quests.
To think that the Seoul terror attack would end so easily… … .
Flash, flash.
Baek So-rin held Masamune and looked around.
Every time, an eerie light flows.
“Sir, this seems like a good sword. Are you going to use it?”
“No. I don’t need it. Why, do you want it?”
“Hehehe.”
“Take it. I’ll give the holy sword to Janet.”
“Wow! Really?”
“Uh. I’ll just use the silent sword.”
Yodo Masamune is a good sword.
Respect the attack power and apply a random curse to a confirmed hit.
But I don’t like Japanese swords.
I like straight swords better than swords.
The silent sword isn’t bad either.
It has the strongest attack power and indestructible ability.
“Ehehehe.”
Baek So-rin hugged Masamune and let out a strange laugh.
His cheek was cut and blood was dripping down, but even that looked good.
It’s a combination of the Thousand-Year-Old Star and the Urethra.
This is a bit scary.
“Let’s go here.”
There was no rush.
Before heading to the secret passage where the terrorists had escaped, he took the group deep into the forbidden area.
A magically sealed door appeared.
“I’ll open it.”
“It’s okay. Leave it to me.”
Equip [Destruction] trait and shoot [Destruction] shotgun.
Bam!
A sealing door without the usual self-destruct trap or erasure magic.
I broke it lightly and went inside.
“Whoa… … .”
“Huh!”
Everyone opened their mouths in surprise.
That’s worth it.
The golden mountain was smiling down on us.
Literally a mountain of gold.
Moreover, on one side, magical jewels show off their presence in the display case.
On the other side are magical weapons.
Swords, guns, staffs, relics, armor, rings, necklaces… … .
Among them, there were a few that stood out.
Unholy leather armor.
The evil relic.
It’s originally in the Terrorist Alliance Headquarters dungeon?
It seems that the Empress of Massacre brought it with her when she escaped.
It was good anyway.
My eyes were drawn to other objects instead.
Ebony wood musket.
The golden patterns engraved on the surface emit a faint light.
The jewels embedded here and there emit magical light.
A familiar look.
I opened my eyes once and picked up the gun.
‘It’s here.’
The last of the many tombs.
rifle.
The attribute it contains is [Death].
It is the most lethal attribute and fits the weapon’s purpose.
This completes the set of five Dasan guns.
Since I have the Gunslinger trait, the path is open to getting the Gunslinger superior trait, or more precisely, the top trait.
‘wow.’
And the ring you see next to it.
I took care of that shiny guy without stopping.
The characteristic contained in the ring is [Blink].
This is a characteristic classified as a supernatural ability.
It was harder to get than teleportation, but I didn’t know it was here.
The Empress of Slaughter… … .
Even though you made it hard for me, I must forgive you.
I can’t help but forgive you for giving so generously, right?
After a moment of silence, I shouted happily.
“Take one each. It’s a souvenir!”
“Wow!”
“Are you serious?”
“of course!”
I can eat everything I want.
But it’s petty greed.
Since you’re going to lead people, you have to share.
There’s nothing I can use among the magical weapons.
Anyway, I’ll have all the gold and magic gems.
A pile of diamonds shining among the magic jewels.
I guess I’ll have to use it as a redevelopment fund, but in the end, it’ll be mine.
‘Why don’t we go all the way to Daerim-dong this time?’
That would be fine too.
Since the slaughter queen was discovered in Daerim-dong, the justification was mine.
In Yeongdeungpo-gu, Daerim-dong is treated as an abandoned child, so it is enough to oil it appropriately.
The superhumans were delighted and plundered the magical weapons.
Everyone had eyes to see, so they coveted the unholy leather armor and evil relics the most.
I had no choice but to direct the traffic.
He declared that the unholy leather armor would be distributed to Seo Woo-jin, and the evil relics would be distributed to Choi Seon-su.
Seo Woo-jin received the leather armor with a slightly dazed expression.
“Teacher… … Honestly, I didn’t do anything… … .”
“I didn’t do anything. It helped me a lot this time.”
“but…….”
“It’s okay. It’s okay. I’ll need your help a lot in the future. Just help me then.”
Seo Woo-jin’s throat shook loudly.
Unholy leather armor is SSR grade.
If I had to be specific, it would be a defensive piece comparable to my Star Spawn.
It’s one level higher than the protective clothing that Cho-cheol used before.
It seems that even Seo Woo-jin, who was born with a silver spoon in his mouth, is having a hard time obtaining the armor, so he can’t seem to say anything about receiving it right away.
“teacher…….”
After receiving the armor, Seo Woo-jin suddenly knelt down.
No, why is he like this?
When I looked up in confusion, Seo Woo Jin looked up at me.
With an expression more earnest than ever before.
No, with a familiar face.
That expression when we first met.
He was looking up at me with the same look he had when he was suffering from fever.
“Teacher. I would like to officially become your disciple.”
“What are you talking about all of a sudden?”
“I thought I was a genius. I was confident in this one too. But… … .”
Seo Woo-jin’s eyes scanned Baek So-rin, Janet, and Carly once each.
The three of them were also surprised by the sudden words.
His wide-open eyes were looking at Seo Woo-jin.
“I did nothing today. I just watched with my eyes open as you, Master, fought the Slaughter Empress. I didn’t even swing my sword once or fire a single sword energy!”
I know what you mean.
He realized that he was a greenhouse flower and a rich boy.
Level 6 vs level 7.
The one-level difference is absolute, and the slaughter trait is terrifying, but it is the greatest humiliation to just kneel and drool.
Warriors who had been trained in actual combat were able to overcome it and even throw a tantrum.
Then your throat will be cut.
Even though I borrowed the power of my special ability, I attacked the Empress of Slaughter when I didn’t have a thousand-man army or a peerless enemy.
“Are there any teachers in your family?”
“They are all great people. My father and mother taught me well too… … But, but they lack something crucial.”
Seo Woo-jin looks at me with passionate eyes.
I know what it is.
The warrior’s heart. Or heart.
The nature of weeds that barely survive in the wild.
It was something that was hard to find in the large sects.
I thought about it for a moment and nodded.
“Okay. I’ll take it.”
Seo Woojin’s face brightened.
“Is that true?”
“then.”
“Master! Please accept my bow!”
Seo Woo-jin bowed one by one.
One-time, two-time, three-time, four-time… … gradient.
It was embarrassing, but I accepted it.
Since you were born and raised in a prestigious family with hundreds of years of history, you will feel like you have become a true disciple.
The security staff applauded.
“Congratulations, Chief!”
“The CEO and Vice-CEO will be happy too!”
Seo Woo-jin’s face also looks much more relaxed.
Baek So-rin slapped Seo Woo-jin on the back.
“Welcome, priest.”
“Priest?”
“Of course. You’re the youngest.”
“That’s funny! I’m the first one? I met the teacher before you!”
“We should follow the order in which they entered the school. Isn’t that right? Master Seo?”
It is the same whether you look at it from a martial arts perspective or from the traditions followed by the world’s martial artists.
But it seems too old-fashioned to be a priest.
I chuckled and intervened between the two.
“You two should be on good terms. Be friends. You’re the same age.”
“Hey, teacher! That’s not it!”
“Woojin has been like a half-student to me since long ago. And what is a master and a disciple in the 21st century? This isn’t the Joseon Dynasty. I think of him as a classmate.”
“Cheat!”
Baek So-rin puffed out her cheeks.
Beside her, Carly shook her head.
“Oh my, you old fart.”
“what?”
“Your ears are sharp again.”
“this!”
Baek So-rin jumps out to catch Kali.
Carly ran away laughing.
No matter how great a runaway train is, it can’t catch shadow movement.
There is a 2 level difference, but the [Goddess’s Blood] trait is definitely fraudulent.
He was teasing Baek So-rin while blinking his head.
“Let’s stop and go.”
“What about gold and jewels?”
“I’ll have to have people take it out later. I’m going to use it for redevelopment.”
All I brought was a magic weapon and a diamond.
Everyone’s faces brightened.
After collecting each piece of equipment that you can’t get even with money, and that costs at least several billion won.
Me too.
Now that I’ve got a bunch of diamonds, I don’t think I’ll be short on anything for a while.
We temporarily sealed the treasure vault and went out through the secret passage.
“Your Majesty the Silent Sword! Woojin!”
“Father! Mother!”
The terrorist league was unable to break out of the encirclement.
Every single one of them was caught and tied up.
As the head of the Empress of Slaughter was taken out with the Hwa-ryong-jeom-jeong, a heavy silence descended.
Everyone’s face looks like they can’t believe it.
A terrorist league that rose up as if it were going to burn down the entire Seoul, albeit briefly.
That monster.
A notorious international criminal and terrorist.
The head of the Empress of Slaughter, soaked in blood, grease, and magical fluid, is held high in my hands.
It was only after a long time that the cheers erupted.
“and!”
“The slaughter empress is dead!”
“Long live the Mukho Sword Master!”
At the forefront were the CEO and vice-president of Jeil Security.
When we first met, the two of them clearly treated me like an inferior.
In less than a year, my position had changed 180 degrees.
Now the two of them are looking up at me, somewhat embarrassed, but also respectful.
Clearly different from themselves.
Much more powerful.
Feeling the magical waves I emit.
I waved my hand moderately.
Then he turned his head and looked at Janet and Carly.
Two with fully established magic circuits.
Now that we’ve finished off the Terror League, there’s plenty of time to level up both of them.
Janet becomes level 5 and Carly becomes level 4.
in other words.
Time to start Janet’s personal quest.
It’s time to go get the Nephilim sword.
