Chapter 107 – Transcendence vs. Geukjin (2)
Han Man-cheol’s appearance, like that of a yaksha, expressed a firm will that did not seem to give up.
The attitude of Han Man-cheol, who was immortalized for his death while being battered, clearly showed what the spirit of extreme honesty was.
“As expected, it’s only one season.”
“It’s not called the 4th guild leader for nothing!”
“Kim Seo-joon was amazing, but Han Man-cheol was not something to be taken lightly!”
“Extreme spirit. Extreme Sword!”
And in the appearance of Han Man-cheol, people praised Han Man-cheol in unison.
“Come!”
Han Man-cheol shouted at Seo-joon with enthusiasm.
But Seojun didn’t move.
I just stared at it for a long time without saying a word.
How much time had passed like that?
Seojun slowly opened his mouth.
“so···”
Then, he spat out words indifferently toward Han Man-cheol.
“So you succumbed to the black dragon?”
Shocked, Han Man-cheol trembled.
“So you’re doing this to me? not to lose? Just hoping for victory?”
Han Man-cheol did not respond.
An indomitable spirit that can be said to be the essence of the Geukjin sword (極眞劍).
In fact… Seo-joon respected that spirit.
So, before he came across the transcendent academy, Seo-joon even had a strange fantasy about Han Man-cheol.
But when he faced the truth about the 5 guilds from Mooncheol Seo.
Seo-joon couldn’t shake off his disappointment at Geuk-jin, whom he admired.
exactly.
“Is that the Geukjin that Emperor Han Yuan was talking about?”
It was a disappointment to Han Man-cheol, who insulted the spirit of Geukjin.
In fact, Han Man-cheol was not the founder of Geukjin Sword.
The founder of Geukjin Sword was none other than Han Man-cheol’s father, Han Won-je.
And Han Wonje is an Awakener during the Cataclysm.
During Cataclysm, one of the dead Awoken.
There were countless Awoken who died during the cataclysm.
It would be accurate to say that not only the awakened ones, but also the number of dead people is large.
Early Cataclysm.
It was a time when even the word cataclysm was unfamiliar.
The concept of a monster suddenly appearing on Earth was nothing more than a terrible disaster.
The monsters that modern firearms did not work at all were the end itself.
Once like that, the shelter was besieged by monsters.
And the judgment of the government and the military at the time was to abandon the shelter.
It was because the number of monsters surrounding the shelter was beyond the level of the awakened people at the time.
Besides, only the Awakened were able to deal with the monsters.
And in the early days of Cataclysm, the existence of the Awoken was truly rare.
The government could not drive that precious manpower to death.
At the time, the 5 heroes were in a situation where they could not come out to prevent the attack of other monsters.
That time when 50,000 people are waiting for death.
Because there was someone who came out alone.
He was Han Won-je, the founder of the Geukjin Sword.
Only Han Won-je declared that he would fight the battle.
Everyone was ripped off, but Han Yuanje was unmoved.
At that time, this was what Han Won-je said.
‘If you want to walk the path of perfection, ask yourself a question.’
‘Did you do your best? Did they fight fierce enough to die?’
‘Did I pour out my everything to the other person?’
Han Won-je pierced through the monsters alone.
With just one sword, he pierced the legion of monsters that no one thought would be able to do.
And in the end, he ended his life violently, achieving the miracle of saving 50,000 people without a single casualty.
It was a story that Seo-jun also heard later, but
It is said that Su-yeon’s grandfather was one of the 50,000 people whose lives were saved at the time.
Su-yeon’s grandfather admired Han Won-je and said that his son would be the son of Han Won-je, and named him Seok Man-cheol.
This was the reason that Seok Man-cheol, who is Su-yeon’s father and had worked with Seo-jun for 10 years, had the same name as Han Man-cheol in front of him.
In addition, the name was given after seeing him fight at the time.
Yacha (夜叉) Hanwonje.
The reason why this name is still being talked about is not because of the Hanman season.
It is none other than if Han Won-je was alive.
It was because he was a person who was evaluated as a hero who would have made a double wall with the current sword star.
The Geukjin sword that Han Wonje used was said to be a sword with considerable power even for the Sword Saint.
It was to the extent that he supplemented his swordsmanship by referring to the Geukjin Sword.

The Geukjin Sword evaluated by the Sword Master was not Han Man-cheol’s Geukjin Sword.
During the Cataclysm, Han Won-je’s Geukjin Sword (極眞劍).
Geukjin is such a spirit.
The spirit that Seojun respects and pursues.
however.
“Aren’t you embarrassed?”
Han Man-cheol’s extreme was not like that.
ugly and dirty
Han Man-cheol’s extreme extreme was a false extreme.
“Aren’t you ashamed to see Hanwonjenim?”
“What do you know about mentioning your father’s name!”
When Seo Jun mentioned Han Won-je’s name, Han Man-cheol reacted violently.
At the same time, the momentum bursting out of Han Man-cheol’s body grew stronger.
“How dare you name your father…”
It looks like it touched the reverse.
However, Seo-joon was rather cold.
“You asked me to kill you.”
Startle.
Han Man-cheol flinched and trembled at that sad life.
Seo-joon stared blankly at Han Man-cheol and turned his gaze away.
Then he put the spear of Longinus into the kibisis.
“I really want to, but… I won’t kill you. As I said at the beginning, you are lying down for a month… no, for two months.”
Then, Seojun clenched his fists tightly.
It was as if he would fight with his fists from now on.
On the other hand, Han Man-cheol is still holding the sword.
No matter how much Han Man-cheol had exhausted his energy, it wasn’t to this extent.
Mancheol Han shouted, frowning and distorting.
“Don’t underestimate the extreme spirit!! I am···!”
tadak.
However, before Han Man-cheol’s words were finished, Seo-joon moved first.
He stopped talking and hurriedly raised his sword.
It was because he hadn’t expected that Seojun would suddenly come in.
Han Man-cheol immediately followed Seo-joon’s movements.
However, it was not possible to capture all of Seo-jun’s bizarre movements.
A new type of Seo-joon that disappears from sight for an instant.
Han Man-cheol scattered the energy of his whole body and looked for Seo-jun’s presence.
That moment.
“You are the one who doesn’t look down on the spirit of extreme truth.”
Seo-joon’s cold voice came from behind Han Man-cheol.
Aww!
With an eerie sound, Han Man-cheol’s body flew backwards.
And in all of those processes.
“Cuck!”
Han Man-cheol could not recognize what had happened to him.
It was just the terrible pain that hit the whole body and the feeling that the body was floating in the air.
in the shaky sight.
And again.
Aaaaaaaang!
“Chehehehehe!”
Han Man-cheol’s body, which was floating in the air, was suddenly slammed into the ground.
The ground caved in and dug with excruciating pain.
And again.
This time, Han Man-cheol was not aware of what had happened.
Of course I know.
hit by fist
But when…?
I couldn’t see the process of the blow at all.
Besides, I couldn’t imagine the terrible pain I was feeling right now, being hit by a human fist.
“This bastard…!”
However, Han Man-cheol was not alone.
I straight up raised my bouncing body and swung my sword at the same time.
True (斬).
The swinging slash blows up the space and creates a terrifying wind pressure.
but.
Aaaaaaaaaaagh!
Strong power fluctuated, and Han Man-cheol’s body floated in the air again.
And again, wow!
It swells up and bursts again.
Digging into the flow of enormous power, the whole body is torn to shreds.
moment of thought.
Seo-joon splits that instant of time again and again.
At some point, Seo-joon was standing in front of Han Man-cheol’s nose.
And again.
Aaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!
“Heh heh!”
Han Man-cheol’s body is slammed to the floor.
Han Man-cheol loses his mind in the power that made the entire ground collapse.
fast.
It’s too fast.
Seo-joon’s movements, as if he were breaking through the gaps in his thoughts, did not even allow him a chance to react.
In that fleeting moment, Han Man-cheol couldn’t even recognize how many hits had been made.
Consciousness flickers, mind cuts off.
flash
Han Man-cheol’s eyes opened and the blue sky was reflected.
My memory was broken intermittently, and I couldn’t think normally.
Seo-joon stood with a relaxed look and waited for it.
It gave me time to calm down.
“·······”
Han Man-cheol’s face twisted in astonishment as he stood up.
I tried to say something, but something hot rose up in my throat and I couldn’t bring it out.
“Cool…!”
Wow, Han Man-cheol coughing up blood.
At the same time, Han Man-cheol swung his sword at Seo-jun, his eyes twinkling.
Woo woo woo woo!
The blow of the sword that repulsed space caused fierce wind pressure, and it was known that Han Man-cheol was still in good health.
But people knew.
There is no strength enough to cut Seo-jun.
Aaaaaang!
Han Man-cheol’s stomach dented as if it had collapsed.
Han Man-cheol’s eyes widened as he staggered back.
Can’t see…
can’t reach can’t cope
‘Gyeok, the class is different…’
Han Man-cheol thought for a moment.
Kwaaaaang!
“Chehehehehehehe!!”
The fight itself won’t be.
Of course, I knew that Seojun was strong.
Still, I thought it would be lower than myself.
Because he was the head of the 4 major guilds and the highest ranked hunter among S-rank hunters.
No matter how good Seojun was, I thought he was at the level of a student.
I thought it would be an A-class hunter at most.
However, after meeting Seo-joon, he was able to realize that he was never under him.
I thought they would be equal though.
I thought it was just an upgrade from an A-class hunter to an S-class hunter.
But now…
Seo-joon’s movements were not flashy.
It was monotonous and simple, just like the technique of the Geukjin Sword.
so that.
Aaaaaaaaaaagh!
It had a monstrous destructive power.
“Chehehehehehehe!!”
can’t reach can’t be touched
The flow of thoughts reaches here.
This overwhelming gap made me feel humiliated while despairing for a long time.
I’m going to go to the middle of the day!!
dull ringing.
The world turns white with an explosion.
“·······”
“·······”
“·······”
Everyone who watched the scene was at a loss for words.
Exactly, no thoughts or notions came to mind.
Just one.
He was only aware of the fact that Seo-joon was beating Han Man-cheol with his bare fists.
And that was enough.
For Kim Seo-joon to deal with the heads of the four major guilds.
It was a shock different from the overwhelming power that Seo-joon had shown just before.
Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!
Consciousness is blurred, and only unknown auditory hallucinations linger in my ears.
The unbearable shock broke Han Man-cheol’s ribs and ruptured his intestines.
Han Man-cheol’s body, which had flown helplessly, fell from a distance and rolled on the ground.
My mind is dizzy.
I forcibly held on to my blurry vision and tried to hold on to a collapsing posture, but my body no longer listened to me.
At that moment, Seo-joon’s fists rush in as he is violently grabbed by the collar.
“That, stop…!”
Han Man-cheol let out a sound with difficulty and desperately.
Standing tall, Seo-jun’s fist stopped.
“Tea, rather… kill me…”
Han Man-cheol begged in a desperate voice.
I looked at Han Man-cheol’s trembling eyes.
However, Seo-joon gripped Han Man-cheol tightly by the collar again.
Then, the whole body was filled with divine power.
I’m going to go to the middle of the day!!!
The muscles contracted at once, and a terrifying noise erupted from Seo-jun’s body.
Infinite power welling up from the depths of the soul.
Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!
A wave of tremendous power swept through the hall.
As if the space were vibrating, the air trembled.
Everyone in the hall was overwhelmed by the terrifying force.
Seo-joon took over the divine power and put Han Man-cheol on the floor.
Aww—————————Oh!!
As Han Man-cheol’s body was pinned to the floor, an indefinable ominous sound erupted.
As if the ground was drying up from a severe drought, cracks like spider webs suddenly appeared.
Seo-joon sighed and held Han Man-cheol by the collar again.
Still, is there such a thing as the 4th guild leader?
Han Man-cheol neither died nor lost consciousness.
However, Han Man-cheol was crushed so badly that it could no longer be called Han Man-cheol.
“… buy, save…”
Han Man-cheol begged Seo-joon for his life.
It was the moment when the limits of his false extreme were revealed.
“My, my… I’ll give you full marks… so please…”
Seo-joon looked at Han Man-cheol again without a word.
It was ugly. No, it was ugly beyond ugly.
This was not the attitude of a person walking the path of extreme perfection.
Probably, Ryu Jin-cheol also succumbed like this.
That’s why Seo-joon didn’t believe Han Man-cheol’s words.
Even if the words were like this, if he saved them, if it ended like this, he did not know when he would turn around and change his words.
However, even if it is a false extreme, is an extreme extreme an extreme extreme?
Han Man-cheol did not faint easily.
Therefore, in order for Seo-jun to get a perfect score, he must kill Han Man-cheol.
And that was something Seo-jun couldn’t do hastily.
The pro hunter test is literally a test.
Killing someone in the arena of trials was tantamount to murder.
The candidate kills the examiner.
This was a serious matter that could even touch the deprivation of licenses in severe cases.
I thought maybe Ryu Jin-cheol had sent Han Man-cheol considering this worst case.
No matter how good Seojun is, he can’t show an overwhelming appearance against the 4 major guild leaders.
But really, no one at all.
Even if Seo-jun shows an overwhelming figure, the only way for Seo-jun to win is to kill Han Man-cheol.
Ryu Jin-cheol made a plan considering the worst of the worst.
And everything was going according to Ryu Jin-cheol’s plan.
Unless he kills Han Man-cheol, there is no way for Seo-jun to get a perfect score in this test.
From the beginning, there was no possibility that Seojun could receive an A-class hunter license.
however.
“I told you.”
The transcendentalists Seo-joon wants to walk on are those who make a way if there is no way.
They are beings that transcend all the impossible.
“Tell me to lie down for about two months.”
Seo-joon grabbed Ryu Jin-cheol by the nape of his neck.
Then he activated Samdanjeon (三丹田).
The blazing flames that were born in the bottom battle flowed through the circle of the middle battle and continued to amplify after amplification.
───────────!!
Some undefinable power explodes through Seo-jun’s body.
It was a mysterious power far beyond common sense and cognition, transcending cause and effect.
Seo-joon poured that energy into Han Man-cheol.
Kwak Kwah Kwah Kwah Kwah!!!
“…!!!”
A huge uncontrolled power, a far-fetched power that transcends cause and effect, engulfs Han Man-cheol.
Pain engulfs the whole body as if it were going to be torn apart.
Han Man-cheol opened his mouth and let out a soundless scream.
My eyes are wide open and my mind is dizzy.
Two eyes stained white are bathed in a deep blue light.
Senses throughout the body are intermittently cut off.
The pain as if each of the thread veins were bursting raged one after another.
Paper weave!
The bowl of mana that Han Man-cheol can handle is broken.
The bowl of Han Man-cheol’s spirit is slowly breaking.
“Quaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!”
A terrible scream erupts from Han Man-cheol’s mouth.
However, the storm of great power continued to pour down.
Han Man-cheol’s mind was getting more and more blurry.
And in those fleeting moments.
Han Man-cheol was able to glimpse Seo-joon’s spirit for a moment.
It was also the spirit that Han Man-cheol faced.
A firm mind that is not shaken by anything and does not give in.
It is the path that Geukjin (極眞) wants to walk in the end, and the ultimate path that must be followed in the end.
It was the spirit that he had glimpsed from his father, Han Won-je, a long time ago.
But after that, it was a spirit that I thought I would never see again.
‘Uh, uh, why…’
But why did Seo-joon see it?
Seojun’s eyes were not looking at him.
The eyes were looking at him, but he was still looking beyond them.
The spirit of extreme truth, far beyond.
transcendence.
Han Man-cheol caught Seo-joon’s figure in his blurred mind and vision.
But why?
What was reflected in Han Man-cheol’s eyes was not Seo-jun.
For some reason, his father, Han Won-je, stood where Seo-joon should have been.
Wonjae Han says:
‘If you want to walk the path of perfection, ask yourself a question.’
‘Did you do your best? Did they fight fierce enough to die?’
‘Did I pour out my everything to the other person?’
Even the memory of that day has faded now. back then.
My father’s last will that I tried to ignore.
‘That’s why I don’t have a single point of shame.’
“Think about whether you have no shame at all.”
Han Man-cheol lost his mind at Seo-joon’s wrath.
Han Man-cheol, the head of the four major guilds that have ruled Korean society for decades.
That false extreme.
dump.
It was the moment when he was bent in front of transcendence.
#
“·······”
“·······”
“·······”
Only silence lingered in the hall with Han Man-cheol, who had lost his mind.
astonishment and shock.
No words could express or represent the feelings they were receiving.
Seojun stood still.
Han Man-cheol was the scapegoat.
A scapegoat to prevent Seo-joon from being able to obtain an A-class hunter license.
And the worst case was to lose his life to Seo-joon.
Even if things go wrong, the ugly plan to self-destruct with Seo-joon.
In the end, there was a separate person behind this.
The one who plotted and planned all of this.
However, he is the one who hides behind and watches.
The ruler of the professional hunter world who only considers profit and interests and uses people’s lives like chess pieces on a chessboard.
Seo-jun gritted his teeth.
“Ryu Jincheol!!”
At Seo-jun’s sudden cry, everyone in the hall looked at Seo-jun.
And those who watched the live broadcast also paid attention to Seo-joon.
A heavy silence descends.
While the entire Korean society pays attention to Seo-joon.
Seo-joon said in a voice that was colder than the cold.
“You are next.”
