Gwangcheonma silently followed Lee Seong-min. It was also thanks to seeing Baek Mu-seon, the Blood Heavenly Demon whom I deeply cared about, lose his humanity and become a monster, and ultimately fall and die in an ugly way. The confusion Gwangcheonma was feeling was not just because of that.
‘What on earth is this guy doing?’
I see the back of Lee Seong-min walking ahead. Baek Mu-seon was by no means an easy opponent. Gwangcheonma also fought Baek Mu-seon, but was unable to defeat Baek Mu-seon as easily as Lee Seong-min. As a light horse, it made me think a lot. Just a few months ago, Lee Seong-min was not Gwangcheonma’s opponent. This morning, no, there is no need to go there. When he first fought Baek Mu-seon, Lee Seong-min was weaker than Gwangcheon-ma and even Baek Mu-seon.
But what about now? Gwangcheonma glared at Lee Seong-min’s back. What happens if you fight with all your might? Can I win?
“haha!”
Gwangcheonma burst out laughing. I’ll have to try it to find out… There is no certainty of victory.
‘but… ‘I couldn’t reach the realm of transcendence.’
Gwangcheonma knew the warrior who was in the realm of transcendence. The six lords of Cheon-o-cheon, among them Geom-jon. He was, without a doubt, a warrior of transcendental realms. He hasn’t fought the current Lee Seong-min directly, but if you compare Geomzon and Lee Seong-min. Gwangcheonma thought that Geomzon would be greatly superior.
‘Considering his age, it’s a great thing.’
Gwangcheonma put aside his desire to win. Because today is not the only day. Since we will be together during the long journey to the south anyway, the day will come when we will fight with Lee Seong-min again.
“My motivation is surging.”
Gwangcheonma muttered in a happy voice.

Jennyella rested her chin on her hand and was lost in thought. She saw with her own eyes what Baek Mu-seon went through. She also saw how the fight between Baek Mu-mu and Lee Seong-min went.
‘Did Heo Joo intervene? No, I didn’t use magical power… ‘
I don’t understand. Jennyella gave Baek Mu-seon a lot of strength. Among the countless vampires in her clan, there are only a handful that are as strong as Baekmu.
Nevertheless, Baek Mu-seon was defeated. Jennyella ordered Baek Mu-seon to despair Lee Seong-min… Baek Mu-seon could not accompany him. Jennyella laughed and stood up.
“That’s fun.”
I don’t feel any regret over Baek Mu-seon’s death. From the point where Baekmu became a vampire and became part of Jennyella’s household, Jennyella lost interest in her Baekmu. When Baek Mu-myeon died, the power that Jennie Ela had given to Baek Mu-yeon returned to Jenny Ella. She doesn’t even need to retrieve the body. This is because the body of a vampire who has lost her powers cannot withstand the sunlight and turns into dust and scatters.
‘It’s been a long time since I wanted someone like this.’
Jennyella giggled while licking her lips. My interest in the person named Lee Seong-min deepened. Jennyella slowly stood up. The banquet was coming to an end. There are no more screams in the hall where terrible screams used to echo. Kim Jonghyun was standing with his back to me and watching everything. Even though dozens of humans became food and drink for vampires before Kim Jong-hyun’s eyes, he remained unfazed.
“Baek Mu-seon is dead.”
Kim Jong-hyun opens his mouth. Kim Jong-hyun, like Jennyella, was also watching the fight between Baek Mu-seon and Lee Seong-min. Jennyella responded by nodding her head.
“He’s a very interesting human being. Although he contains magical powers, he is not a youkai… “But I’m not half-yo.”
“You seem to be very interested in him. Are you going to turn me into a vampire?”
“If he wants to.”
“Vampire Queen. I know very well about your bad taste. You tempt desperate people into submission and make them crawl on their knees and beg. Do you think he will do that?”
“I’m just suggesting other options. “It is always up to humans to choose.”
“I have a small question. If you give them a choice, there will be plenty of people who will choose him. “What are your criteria for choosing humans?”
“A human being who appears not to despair.”
Jennyella answered without hesitation.
“Nevertheless, a person is afraid of despair. A person who doesn’t seem to despair, but who seems likely to despair if the opportunity arises. “He was a man who had dreams and ideals as a human being, but those were broken by despair.”
“If you look for people like that, you’ll find a lot of them… ”
“Not really. First of all, it’s not you.”
Jennyella said with a bright smile. Kim Jonghyun’s cheeks trembled at those words. He looked at Jenny Ella quietly and tilted her head as if he didn’t know.
“What does it mean?”
“You are both human and not human.”
Jennyella answered as if there was nothing to think about.
“And I’m already in despair. I think you’re a pretty interesting person too… I don’t turn people like you into vampires. “It’s no fun when I fall over a tree.”
“Is this a compliment?”
“No, it’s a curse.”
Kim Jong-hyun was speechless.
“And it’s also a prophecy. Most people like you can’t achieve this ideal. And die a terrible death.”
“… haha!”
Kim Jonghyun burst into laughter.
“I hope so.”
Kim Jong-hyun said no more after those words. He adjusted his robe and turned around. Jennyella did not catch Kim Jong-hyun leaving. She chuckled, shaking the red wine even more with her blood.
‘It’s okay to talk arbitrarily.’
As Kim Jonghyun thought that, he quickened his pace. Now that he’s a member of the Predators, he won’t be seen in the North anymore. His vacation from the guild was coming to an end, so he had to return to the Black Magic Tower. Unlike other magic towers, the black magic tower is monitored by the wizard guild. This is because the magic and ideas of warlocks are treated as ominous and dangerous in most cases.
I wanted to leave the guild, but it was still impossible. Surveillance may be a nuisance, but belonging to a wizard guild has many advantages. In particular, the position of a magic tower lord has much more to gain than the inconvenience caused by the guild’s surveillance.
‘The end… The apostle of the end, the law of causality.’
Kim Jong-hyun thought of Lee Sung-min. He was truly a mysterious person. He would meet like this every few years, but each time, Lee Seong-min became stronger than before. A no class that has a disadvantage in survival in this world. Seongmin Lee had reached the limit as a member of the Noh class.
‘There is a powerful force of fate at work on you. As long as the Apostle of the End is protecting you… You are destined to follow your fate whether you are conscious of it or not. ‘I, who keeps meeting you by chance, may also be entangled in that fate.’
Such thoughts made Kim Jonghyun happy. What is the meaning of my existence? What happened to me in a past life that I don’t know about and that you don’t know about either? Am I acting differently now than I was in that other world?
‘Next time I see you. ‘What do I look like?’
Kim Jonghyun let out a low laugh.

Wijihoyeon walked, dragging his feet. The black dragon cloth that wrapped her body was hanging limply, and her face, which had always been fair, was uncharacteristically haggard.
‘How much is left?’
Walking became difficult, so she went to the shade of a nearby tree to rest. The journey to Rubes was very long. There is not much time left now, and she never thought that the road to this point would be so difficult.
Cheon Oecheon, the Six Venerable Ones. Wijihoyeon chewed his lower lip while thinking of them. They were strong enough to deserve the name Cheon Oecheon. It was enough to say that Wi Ji-ho-yeon, who was called Mal-seok among the six venerables, was the most powerful enemy he had ever encountered in his life.
‘I’ll try to find it again next time.’
Gwon Jon, covered in blood, left those words and left. In a fight that lasted for three days, Wijihoyeon was unable to kill Gwon Jon. Likewise, Gwon Jon could not kill Wijihoyeon. All that was left behind was a curse.
“Wow!”
Wijihoyeon, who was trying to catch his breath, could not hold back and vomited black blood. She chewed her lower lip, looking at the black blood she had spit out. The curse engraved by Gwonjon cannot be cured even with elixir. This was a curse engraved on a being other than the body, and it was eating away at Wijihoyeon little by little. Wiji Hoyeon pressed her heaving breasts.
‘You didn’t kill me. ‘Why?’

Should I feel grateful for that? I never thought that something like this would happen so soon before the promised day. Wijihoyeon staggered and got up. The curse must end.
“… Seren.”
Wijihoyeon opened his mouth. Then a woman in a neat suit stood up from under her shadow. She was Erebrisa’s intermediary in charge of Wizzihoen. Seren bowed her head with a somber expression as she looked at Wiji Hoyeon’s pale face.
“… yes.”
“How to deal with this curse… “You couldn’t find it?”
“… As I said before. “The curse that is eating away at you cannot be broken unless you kill the person who engraved the curse.”
I already know about that. Through Seren’s mediation, he met outstanding shamans and wizards, but they only repeated the same words as Seren. There is no way to break the curse unless you kill the person who placed the curse.
“Then what is Gwon Jon’s position?”
“We are continuing to spread the word through the intelligence guild we are cooperating with, but because the organization called Cheonoecheon is so secretive, the location of Gwonjon has not been confirmed.”
Erebrisa is convenient, but that doesn’t mean it’s all-powerful. Information on Erebrisa is obtained through information guilds that cooperate with them. However, although the organization called Cheonoecheon clearly existed, it was like a ghost, so there was no information circulating even from the information guild.
“In the end, I have no choice but to wait on my side.”
Wijihoyeon muttered with a bitter smile. Gwon Jon said he would come back next time. Now that he is cursed, if he meets Gwon Jon again, will he be able to win? Or should I beg Gwon Jon to lift the curse?
‘He didn’t kill me. He probably means that he wants to bring me into Cheonoecheon somehow… ‘What is their purpose?’
I also looked into an organization called Cheonoecheon, but there was no proper information. What I did know was that the Heavenly Heaven is a mixture of humans and demi-humans, and the Six Exalted Heavenly Beings are only the most visible beings among the Heavenly Heavenly Heaven. Also, as Gwonjon himself said, Gwonjon was the lowest of the six nobles. To begin with, among the six nobles, there were only three who called themselves noble, and the other three were considered to be in a state one level higher than them.
“… haha!”
Wijihoyeon turned around while letting out a low laugh. Seren looked at Wijihoyeon’s back with a confused expression and then disappeared. Wiji Ho-yeon did not stop laughing as she thought of Cheon Oecheon and her authority.
To be honest. Up until now, I always thought it was easy. The ten years Wijihoyeon lived in Eria were always easy. That was until I found out about the existence of Cheon Oecheon. Not anymore. I got to know Cheon Oecheon. Wiji Hoyeon realized that his existence was not as great as he thought.
‘I didn’t want to show you anything embarrassing.’
Wijihoyeon started walking, shuffling his feet while thinking about that. There is still a long way to go to Rubes. So she had to keep going without stopping.
‘I have to go.’
I didn’t want to break the promise I made 10 years ago.
