Worthless Regression Chapter 90

————————————==

I am late in understanding.

The Sword Demon took a few steps back. The spear that pierced her chest was sticking out long behind the sword-eared back. The Sword Demon blinked her eyes and looked down at her own chest. The window was soaked red with blood gushing from the wound.

Look a little lower.

The sword in his hand is hanging down without any strength. Red swords disperse in the darkness. The Sword Demon opened his mouth to say something, but what came out was not a voice but red, sticky blood. The Sword Demon, who had coughed up blood several times, looked at Lee Seong-min with trembling eyes.

“how?”

The Sword Demon asked. It was a short question. That was also the question Lee Seong-min asked himself.

‘how?’

How did they do it? I don’t know. The moment when I was about to lose my mind. A question and answer with myself.

I know that I am weak. So I did it. Why did you practice it? I didn’t want to remain weak. I didn’t want to be embarrassed.

I didn’t want to give up. I didn’t want to hesitate. I wanted to be different from my previous life. So, here it is. There is Lee Seong-min. Through different experiences and different thoughts from his previous life, Lee Seong-min became who he is today.

Is this a thought? Did the wind of the mind move the body? I can not know. I didn’t have much experience with these feelings. When he manifested his strength in the fight with Aine, it was a little more… sure. There was that feeling.

But not now. Like a cow catching a mouse by backing up. An unconscious action, not a conscious one, unintentionally pierced the Sword Demon’s attack and pierced his body for a second.

It’s a memory from just a few seconds ago. The Sword Demon’s sword was faster than Lee Seong-min’s spear. The Sword Demon’s sword was shorter than Lee Seong-min’s spear. Nevertheless, he was unable to utilize his superiority in distance and allowed the Sword Demon to approach. In the end, he was unable to block the Sword Demon’s sword, and if it had continued as it was, his body would have been torn in two by the Sword Demon’s sword.

But the result is this. Lee Seong-min’s spear pierced the Sword Demon’s sword. Seongmin Lee could not understand the series of processes.

‘What on earth did you do?’

“Sigh!”

The sword demon vomited blood. He gritted his teeth and swung his sword. The sword he swung weakly was blunt and too late to target Lee Seong-min, but it was sharp enough to cut off the spear that was piercing his chest. The Sword Demon took a few more steps back and grabbed the spear that pierced his chest, his blood dripping through his tightly closed lips.

“You… how… what… ?”

The Sword Demon stammers and asks. Neither party had a proper understanding of the current situation. The sword demon was wearing her self-defense gear. Even if Lee Seong-min’s attack was originally faster than the Sword Demon’s sword, it should have been blocked by his self-defense skills.

do. That’s right. Of course it had to be that way.

But it broke through.

why?

“Ugh… !”

What is clear is this. The sword demon was mortally wounded. Although it is said that a vampire’s immortality increases on the night of the full moon, the Sword Demon was not that high in terms of the level of a vampire. The reason why the Sword Demon was so powerful was because he was a transcendental expert before becoming a vampire.

That’s not all. The Sword Demon had not been able to absorb vampires properly before. All he wanted was a body that would never age, and he got that by becoming a vampire. A body in its prime. Although he wanted a young body, the desire for human blood was an immorality that was difficult for a sword demon who had previously lived as a human to commit.

But in coming here, the Sword Demon cut off his humanity. He wanted to live. I wanted to go further, further. When he crossed the mountain gate of the volcano and killed His Holiness Daoin. The Sword Demon cut off the minimal humanity that remained in her heart. So she came this far by sucking and drinking the blood of the dead bodies.

Although he drank quite a bit of blood, it was far from enough to raise his level as a vampire. A serious wound that pierced the chest. It’s a wound that would have already killed a human being. Nevertheless, the reason I held on was because today was the full moon.

But it’s not long.

It couldn’t last long.

It is not a simple penetrating wound. Lee Seong-min’s spear was loaded with steel. The strong energy that pierced the body destroyed the Sword Demon’s energy and blood, draining his internal power, and the fatal wounds that would have resulted in death were endured with the vampire’s vitality.

It goes out. Wounds do not regenerate. He pulled out the spear with force, but the open wound continued to vomit blood. The Sword Demon tried to press her trembling hand to stop the bleeding from her wound, but said, “Huh…” Hahaha… ha ha ha… !”

In the end, I ended up laughing. The sword demon, who was spouting out blood as she gurgled, lifted her hand and covered her mouth. She continues to swallow the blood rising up her throat. Her hand, which had stopped, moves again. My trembling hand eventually touched the acupuncture point and forcibly stopped the bleeding.

“Get hit by a stone… “I feel like I’m falling.”

The Sword Demon muttered with a pale face. The red in his eyes had faded.

“okay… That’s how I feel. Obviously, I was running forward… more… I could have gone further. I fell down. I tripped on a rock that I wasn’t paying attention to… ”

The Sword Demon twisted his blood-soaked lips and laughed. The Sword Demon, who had been walking unsteadily, picked up the sword she had put down again.

“but… after… Hehehe… Beyond understanding… It was martial arts. It can never be done at your level… It was that kind of radish. Your spear… iced coffee. I just saw your spear piercing my body. It was faster than the sword of His Holiness the Daoist, stronger than the sword of His Holiness the Daoist, and quieter than the sword of His Holiness the Daoist… iced coffee… ”

The redness completely disappeared from the Sword Demon’s eyes. The eyes that returned black were human eyes, not vampire eyes. At the same time, a white air current surged from the Sword Demon’s body.

“more… “Show me.”

The Sword Demon spat out in a boiling voice.

“A greatness that seemed like I could never reach it. “Show me again.”

The sword spirit unleashed the True Wonjin Qi. The Sword Demon gave up trying to escape from this place alive. It is impossible to heal this wound anyway. It would be difficult to save the lives of dozens of people unless they drank their blood, and it would be impossible to kill dozens more with the current state of the body.

That is why the Sword Demon held the sword. And then she steps forward. Her whole body is heavy. The weight of old age, which she had not felt since she became a vampire and ceased to be human, became an even greater weight and pressed down on Sword Ear’s body.

no. This was not the weight of old age. It was the weight of death. At the same time, it was the weight of an ideal that I wanted to see but could not.

“to me. “Show me.”

Nevertheless, the Sword Demon did not look resigned. Rather, he was looking at Lee Sung-min with eyes filled with a brighter desire than any moment Lee Sung-min had ever seen.

I don’t know.

[There is no need to fight. The Sword Demon unleashes her latent power and burns her life. Even if you leave it alone, it will self-destruct.]

I don’t know.

[Haha, by the way… That’s awesome. Who would have thought that Lee Seong-min would win against the Sword Demon! Could it be that you made great progress in martial arts through this fight?]

I don’t know.

The sword demon approaches. Seongmin Lee looked down at his badly cut spear. tremble. Seongmin Lee dropped his spear. Then he took out a new spear and held it.

I don’t know. I really don’t know. I don’t know anything. I have no idea what ‘I’ did just now. How on earth did you pierce the sword spirit? Lee Seong-min himself could not understand what the sword demon was talking about, which was something beyond understanding.

Still, he couldn’t back down. Because he didn’t want to run away. Because he didn’t want to be embarrassed. The Sword Demon sees Lee Seong-min. The Sword Demon’s eyes wanted to ask Lee Seong-min many things.

I’m not confident I can answer that question. I don’t know what to answer. However, Lee Seong-min did not avoid the sword demon’s eyes.

ah.

You are not a dirty and dangerous person who uses judicial power. He is not a fugitive who, realizing his own limitations, gave up and turned away. I just wanted to overcome him by any means possible.

It’s different from me.

You said you envied me. When I was young, I said that about my talent. It’s false. My youth and talent are lies. I am a distorted fugitive, a hypocrite who only pretended to have overcome my inferiority complex, and a weak, small human being who only harbored selfishness for myself and self-satisfaction full of contradictions.

Spears and swords collide. The Sword Demon’s sword, which unleashed True Wonjin Qi, gave off a dazzling light than before. But it’s slow. A dying body cannot draw the sword path that the Sword Demon desires.

Lee Seong-min unleashed his Nine Heavenly Dance Spear at such a sword spirit so sharply that it seemed harsh. He did his best. To kill the Sword Demon, to give him satisfaction.

It’s a victory I don’t like. I feel like I tripped over a rock and fell. The Sword Demon said so. Seongmin Lee also sympathized with him. In the nothingness that the Sword Demon had reached, Lee Seong-min’s existence would have had only the value of a stone beak. It was nothing more than a fluke that Lee Seong-min’s spear was able to pierce the sword spirit.

know. By-self… hate. But you must not run away. Even if we are not proud of this victory, we should not deny it.

The Sword Demon dies here today.

The sword spirit who should die to Wijihoyeon dies here.

A holy monk who should not have died was killed by a sword demon.

If it weren’t for Lee Seong-min, this wouldn’t have happened. With self-satisfaction full of contradictions, while feeling such responsibility.

I am also responsible for your death.

You don’t know where what you wanted to see is. I am not sure that my steps will be able to reach the end of the ideal you wanted to see. Still, I have to do it. Look into the eyes of the sword demon. Those eyes filled with only longing and approaching death. Those eyes where the obsession that I wanted to focus on until I gave up on being human is fading away.

I will kill the one who has those eyes.

“under.”

The Sword Demon’s sword falls down. Lee Seong-min’s spear was lodged in the Sword Demon’s abdomen. The Sword Demon looked down at the spear stuck in her stomach and looked dejected. Seongmin Lee looked into the eyes of the sword ear while catching his breath. A battle of tens of seconds ultimately led to Lee Seong-min’s victory. The sword spirit who had triggered the True Wonjin Qi was dying quickly, but even so, it was not an easy victory.

“You… ”

The Sword Demon staggered and fell to his knees.

“At last… You are deceiving me… ”

Seongmin Lee’s hands stiffened.

“Your spear… ah… Your spear that killed me… More than this… Should have been great. Faster… Even more than His Holiness the disciples… ”

The words muttered

“Why am I here… ”

It was a curse. It was a lament. Seongmin Lee put down the spear. Lee Seong-min took a few steps back and looked at his sword spirit with a confused expression.

I knew it would be like this. Lee Seong-min’s attack that pierced the Sword Demon was an impossible attack for the current Lee Seong-min. The impulse gained in an instant moved the body in the realm of unconsciousness and committed an attack that went beyond the limits of force. In order for Lee Seong-min to reach that level, he will have to look back and refine the feelings he gained at that moment over and over again.

“… I’m sorry.”

Seongmin Lee apologized in a quiet voice. The end of Sword Demon did not give him any satisfaction. It would have been better if I hadn’t fought the Sword Demon. If only I had taken the time and let the Sword Demon self-destruct… At the very least, wouldn’t it have been possible to prevent that warrior from pouring out lamentations and curses at the end?

“I am… “He wasn’t as great of a person as the old man thought.”

I was excited about it. I tried to live up to those expectations. The best is… I think it’s done. It was just not enough.

Because I am too weak.

“I am… more… ”

The sword demon licks his lips and makes a sound. Those were the last words. What remains are lamentations and curses. The Sword Demon was not satisfied with Lee Seong-min. Until the moment of death. Lee Seong-min was nothing more than a sudden stone to the Sword Demon. Lee Seong-min’s legs lost strength and he collapsed on the spot.

“I am… ”

My body is shaking. My weakness. My shortcomings. What if it was someone other than me here? If it were Wi Ji-ho-yeon, if it were Ji-hak, if it was Namgung Hee-won! Could they satisfy the Sword Demon? Couldn’t that warrior have prevented him from cursing and lamenting at the last moment?

“Priests.”

I wanted to cry. It felt like that. But I endured it. Although I was angry at her own weakness, I didn’t want to cry. I felt like if I cried at this moment, something important in my heart would be shattered.

“You’ve grown a lot.”

The voice was close.

She smelled like flowers.
