Episode 258
Demon Temple (3)
“… … Magi?”
Jeong Do muttered that when he saw the energy flowing from Cheok Jun-gyeong’s body.
Definitely Magi.
I checked again to see if I had seen something wrong, but it was clear. That infinitely dark energy was unique to Magi.
And the demonic energy began to change Cheok Jun-gyeong’s body in an instant.
Slurp.
Cheok Jun-kyung’s wounds healed quickly.
In the blink of an eye, the hole in my stomach was restored, my smooth abs began to take shape, and my rough breathing disappeared.
‘Wait, smooth abs?’
Not strong abs?
I looked at Cheok Jun-kyung in astonishment.
… … Is it because of my mood? For some reason, it felt like my size had shrunk slightly. My hair also felt a little longer.
“… … .”
Nope. It’s not an illusion. Rotten.
The brain tried to deny reality, but reality was cruel. Cheok Jun-gyeong’s body was truly changing. In a bad way.
Just as Lucifer said, Cheok Jun-kyung’s gender is truly changing. Jeongdo felt that her mind was fading away.
Master, the manliest of men, becomes a woman?
The greatest martial artist in the history of the Korean Peninsula? Wouldn’t it be better to just become an animal?
‘… … no.’
You might have thought that he would take the situation coolly because of his usual indifferent attitude, but that was a big mistake.
One way or another, Cheok Jun-kyung is an ancient person among ancient people. Although he is quickly adapting to modern times, many aspects of his thinking still remain in the Goryeo period.
Could a person from the Goryeo Dynasty really accept that his body had changed to that of a woman? No, there was no need to go to the Goryeo period, and I didn’t have the confidence to accept it right away.
I’ve lived as a man for over 30 years, and I’ve built up the values and behavior patterns that come with it over that time, but there’s no way I could turn them over in one day.
What’s more, if it’s Cheok Jun-kyung, who has lived as a man for over 1,000 years… … He might have tried to kill himself by biting his sword after seeing his transformed body. It’s not a joke, really.
The magical energy that poured out from Cheok Jun-gyeong’s wounds completely healed his body. And as if that wasn’t enough, Magi continued to change Cheok Jun-gyeong’s body. It felt like I was having full body plastic surgery.
It’s gradually changing.
Cheok Jun-kyung was turning into a woman so clearly that no one could deny it. Her frame shrank, her face became thinner, and her features began to thin.
Jeongdo looked at the change with very complicated feelings and suddenly felt a sense of discomfort.
‘But that magi looks a little strange.’
As far as I know, Cheok Jun-gyeong had never learned magic or magic-related skills. He had never ingested an elixir with such properties.
In other words, there was a strong possibility that the source of that demon energy was the demon energy of Lucifer, who was half heaven and half demon. But thinking that way gave me a different feeling.
Rather than Lucifer’s demon… … .
‘It’s close to Baal’s.’
I could tell because I had loaded Baal myself. Although it is not completely the same, the magic energy that is currently spewing out of Cheok Jun-gyeong’s body is pure enough to be similar to Baal’s magic energy.
“… … An unexpected situation. “I thought I might have talent, but I never thought it would be like this.”
The Demon God’s firm voice was heard from next to Jeongdo. It was completely different from the voice that had been happily waiting for Cheok Jun-kyung to change just a moment ago.
“I’m sorry, but I’m withdrawing my message. If the demonic energy becomes stronger than this, it is too dangerous. Hurry and kill me before that happens… … Pfft!”
Puhak!
And suddenly, the magical energy surrounding Cheok Jun-gyeong’s body began to explode. It was the effect of <Fragment of the Beginning> that is currently being applied to the Demon World.
The demon took a few steps back due to the surge of demon energy. It was a powerful demonic energy that even demon gods could not easily approach.
Clud!
The explosion of magical energy enveloped Cheok Jun-gyeong’s body again, and abnormal sounds began to be heard from Cheok Jun-gyeong’s body.
And the body, which had been in the form of a woman, began to change once again.
Pop!
Bones were broken and muscles were torn. As my smooth abs were torn and recovered, abs like steel took their place.
As the skeleton was reassembled, the shoulders widened. The bones in my face thickened and my hair began to fall out.
The original appearance of Cheok Jun-gyeong as known to him. But there was one thing that was decidedly different.
fluttering.
Black wings sprouted from Cheok Jun-gyeong’s back. It was a magnificent jet-black wing that could be said to be a symbol of pure-blooded demons.
“Demon painting?!”
“This energy… … “Is this the first clan?”
The degree and the demon god were shocked at the same time.
Lucifer was originally an angel, but was transformed into a demon. Cheok Jun-kyung was now going through the same experience that Lucifer went through at the time.
Originally, it was supposed to be limited to turning into a woman, but with <Fragment of the Beginning>, the magical energy exploded, and the increased magical energy strongly stimulated <Reversal>. In <Reversal>, it was decided that Cheok Jun-gyeong’s body could be reversed into a stronger body rather than a woman, and he underwent a complete transformation into a stronger species.
“after.”
Cheok Jun-kyung seemed to have come to his senses before he knew it, and let out a deep breath. Her closed eyes flashed open and her two wings disappeared in an instant. When her wings disappeared, she looked exactly like Cheok Jun-gyeong, at least in terms of her appearance.
“What on earth is this?” … “What is this power inside your body?”
However, just because his wings disappeared, that didn’t mean his demon energy disappeared. Cheok Jun-gyeong was continuously examining his body, as if he was embarrassed by the unfamiliar power within his body. And he asked about the degree.
“That’s it. Did you really save me this time? But what is this power?”
“no. I didn’t do anything this time. “It’s not that there isn’t something to point out, but it’s not certain.”
“Hmm. That’s right. Then, let’s ask someone similar.”
Sigh.
When Cheok Jun-gyeong stretched out his palm towards the ground, the Cheonggang sword that was lying around came up and was placed in his hand. Cheok Jun-gyeong asked, aiming the sword at the demon.
“No matter how you look at it, this energy is similar to yours. You guy. What on earth have you done to me… … “Inhale!”
bang!

Cheok Jun-gyeong hit the huge stone spear flying towards him. The stone spear was completely shattered, and stone fragments fell to the ground in Ususu.
Cheok Jun-gyeong rolled up the corners of his mouth.
“There’s no need to say anything, right? good. “I’m more comfortable this way too.”
Cheok Jun-gyeong held the Cheonggang sword tightly.
full of energy.
The dark and pure energy overflowing from deep inside my body led me to a higher level that I had never experienced before.
I raised my head and looked at the demon god. The guy’s expression was so hard that it couldn’t get any harder. The sight of them enjoying the battle from start to finish was nowhere to be seen.
“Goes!”
Cheok Jun-gyeong stepped forward and rushed towards the demon. When he swung his sword, aiming for his right shoulder, the demon god struck the sword away with his right hand.
Kang!
Sparks flew as the sword and fist met. Cheok Jun-gyeong was convinced by the exchange just now. He was filled with confidence that he could do more than before, or rather, that he could overpower it.
Kiiing!
Did he also feel it when he drank it? The demon god raised all his strength. 66 magic circles appeared behind the demon’s back and began to split into 33 each on the left and right.
Support position.
And powerful lightning magic was released from all those magic circles. However, the target of the released magic was not Cheok Jun-gyeong, but both arms of the demon god.
Giga Lightning. It was a mythical level lightning type magic. As a total of 66 Giga Lightning landed on both arms, there was a sound of the air being torn apart.
And this time, the demon god dug into Cheok Jun-kyung’s arms.
“Sigh!”
And both fists were fired, aiming for Jeongdo’s body and head. A fist filled with the power of lightning flew in to crush Cheok Jun-gyeong.
however.
“I can see everything!”
Cheok Jun-gyeong swung his sword three or four times, and all the fists bounced off. The demon god seemed to have expected that to happen and prepared the next magic without the slightest embarrassment.
The demon god made the hand sign at a speed comparable to the speed at which the punch flew. Then, tens of times more weight began to be applied to Cheok Jun-kyung’s body.
“You’re doing something stupid!”
Cheok Jun-gyeong used Dangongcham (partially activated) to cut into the air. Then, the terrible weight that had been pressing down on his body disappeared without even being able to look for it.
There was no reason why Dangongcham, which could even cut through space, could not cut through even gravity magic. This time, the demon god was quickly put on the defensive.
The difference in power was not only a difference, but the current demon god was more nervous than ever.
‘Do you think you can do it now?’
No polarity.
The ultimate technique where the concepts of defense or evasion do not apply. Even though he had the innate talent of <a thousand things>, he was unable to fully develop it due to the limitations of being a ‘human’ and the limitations of the system.
However, it is possible now that we have transcended humanity. Cheok Jun-gyeong was convinced of that.
It was at that time that Cheok Jun-gyeong raised his sword and was about to use Mugeuk.
“Oh, that’s difficult. “I am careful to keep everything I have as undamaged as possible.”
“What?!”
Cheok Jun-gyeong took a quick step back at the sudden voice. He had a bead of cold sweat rolling down his forehead. Even as he approached this far, he was unable to catch even the slightest hint.
When I turned my back and looked towards the source of the sound, there was a boy with a rather unconventional hair color called purple, smiling brightly.
Who is this boy? A boy like this is someone who can deceive Cheok Jun-gyeong, Demon God, and Jeong-do and even get up close.
Everyone’s vigilance was maximized.
On the outside, he only seemed like a very handsome boy, but no one here thought that way. Cheok Jun-gyeong asked the purple-haired boy in a low voice.
“Who are you?”
“uh? Don’t you know me? I thought I was pretty famous… … “It’s sad.”
“… … .”
“This person doesn’t say anything, so I think he knows who I am. “Then you know what to do, right?”
“… … I can’t give it. “Go back.”
“Wrong. That’s not the answer I want. Now, say it again.”
“No matter how many times I ask, it’s the same. “Go back.”
“You are reckless even though you know my identity. It can’t be helped. “It’s a little cumbersome, but I have no choice but to move it myself.”
After speaking, the boy immediately burrowed into the Demon God’s arms.
Sigh!
“Big, big.”
The boy’s small hand pierced the demon’s chest. The demon god could not react at all to the attack.
The boy pierced the demon’s chest and searched for something inside. And then he pulled his hand away from his chest, as if he had found what he was looking for.
And immediately, the effect of <Fragment of the Beginning> spread across the Demon World disappeared.
“It was something that was too much for you.”
The boy smiled and looked at his hands.
The hand was holding a black gem about the size of an index finger. The boy said, looking at the jewel in fascination.
“<Fragments of the Beginning>. It’s such a beautiful thing. I hid it so well that I couldn’t find it until now. I don’t know what wind blew to reveal this… … “I will take charge from today onwards.”
‘Then I’m busy so I’ll stop.’
The boy unilaterally gave notice like that. And suddenly, a sharp blade approached the boy’s neck and stopped him as he was about to leave with a smile.
“hey. shit. you. “Where do you plan on going if you interfere with my fight?”
“yes?”
The owner of the sword was Cheok Jun-gyeong. The boy responded as if he was confused by Cheok Jun-gyeong’s words. It was as if he didn’t know they would stop him like this.
“Interfering with the fight? ah! Are you referring to the ‘storage box’ I just cleaned out? Well, I guess he’s in trouble because he died… … All right. “I will save you.”
The boy said and waved his hand in the air. Then, blue mana was generated from the boy’s hand and landed on the demon god whose chest was pierced.
Slowly.
Then the demon really stood up. However, the focus of his eyes was blurred as if he was not moving of his own will.
“That’s enough now, right? Fight hard. Not only will you have the memories you had when you were alive, but you will have become even stronger.”
“… … What on earth are you… Sigh!”
Cheok Jun-gyeong suddenly received a surprise attack from the Demon God, but was thrown back by a heavier attack than before.
“then. “I made you fight the way you wanted, so I’ll go.”
“for a moment. Should I leave that behind? what is your identity?”
“My identity? Hmm. Do you really not know? Then listen carefully.”
Jeong-do grabbed the boy who was about to disappear again.
I couldn’t hand over the original fragment like this, so I reflexively held on to it, but I soon regretted it.
This was because I was obsessed with the boy’s identity.
To some extent, it reminded me of the notification window I saw a few hours ago.
― <Fragment of the Beginning> has been activated.
― Be careful. Once the Primordial Fragment is activated, it may attract the attention of the Transcendence.
no way. This boy… .
And the boy grinned, as if that prediction was correct.
“Osiris. “That’s my name.”
“shit. Ixia. Equipment number 2.”
<Yes. Master.>
With Ixia’s answer, a huge hammer was held in Jeongdo’s hand. Because of the enormous weight, Jeong-do was unable to hold the hammer properly and dropped it on the ground. ‘Boom!’ And an earthquake occurred.
And I immediately used the <Location Draw>.
Faaat.
Countless business cards began to unfold above Jeong Do’s head. And one of them hurriedly fell towards Jeongdo.
Jijijijik.
Yellow business card.
A business card with a strong and courageous thunderbolt energy was absorbed into Jeong Do’s forehead.
