63. The slaughter, the nightmare, and (3)

Cha Shin Hyeon raised his foot and kicked Malpine in the stomach.

The situation in which each other’s swords were piercing each other’s chest was resolved as the distance was forced to widen. The sword that pierced Malpine’s heart was pulled out with a squeaky sound, and the great sword that pierced Cha Shin Hyeon slid out.

The horse Pine lost the support that supported him and fell down.

His body, which had been falling for a while, came to a standstill. Jerichun, who had caught Malpine with a skill similar to that of an assault weapon, pulled him in.

“… damn.”

He dragged him closer with skeptical anticipation and checked again, but he was still dead.

No matter how powerful the Demon Lord is, his essence is mortal. If his neck was blown away or his heart was broken, he had no choice but to die.

“Are you a real monster, you… … !”

Bardos clenched his teeth.

Cha Shin Hyeon’s wounds were more severe in terms of size rather than part. This was because Malpine was much larger than Cha Shin Hyeon and had the same weaponry. Just think of the blade that would be a span – the width, not the length – pierced the torso.

However, no blood flowed from Cha Shin Hyeon’s body.

From his wounds, only five colors of energy flowed out like a mist. The feeling of the energy itself was auspicious and mysterious, but from the standpoint of the enemy, it gave me goosebumps.

“Are you immortal?”

“Why are you a little scared now?”

To Duraus’ question, Cha Shin Hyeon answered with a sarcastic tone.

He didn’t need to give information, so he replied that way, but Cha Shin Hyeon himself didn’t consider himself immortal.

Since I’ve been maintaining my body with the power of the heart sword, that is, the willpower of my body ever since the fables, abnormal things like this happen, but it’s easy to say, and it’s not a simple task at all.

Despite his ghostly body, he felt the same pain as in human days, along with the feeling that his soul was being ripped out whenever he was injured, and considerable preoccupation was consumed to repair the wounds.

Cha Shin Hyeon, who has escaped mortals but has not yet ascended to heaven, now his body is not an incarnation, but a true spirit. If you blow your head off while your premarital power is gone, you will die. This fact was known instinctively.

“… No, no, it can’t be.”

Durus narrowed his eyes.

“If it had been such an absurd existence, there would have been no need to create a battlefield like this. Even if he just rushed in on his own, he would have been able to kill us by repeating death and resurrection over and over again. There must be limits to your regenerative abilities.”

“Think of it. But it seems to me that there is a bigger problem than that.”

Cha Shin Hyeon grinned.

“In the first place, you guys didn’t even try to kill me properly, did you?”

It is true that he is strong, but he cannot fight eight demon lords at once. It is the same even if you try to save as much energy as possible by mixing the spirit with the spirit power.

However, the evaluation assumes that the demon lord is “doing his best” to the last. In short, the standard is the Demon King who activated the Demon Lord Spirit.

What he noticed was the characteristics of the Demon King Spirit.

It is the Demon Lord Spirit that releases one’s own life force and transforms the surrounding space into a sphere.

In other words, as it is a technique that dominates the ‘surrounding space’, multiple demon lords cannot be activated repeatedly!

Being a Demon King who did not turn on the Demon Lord Spirit was not at all weak, but even before the fable, it was at a level that gave him a slight edge. There was no way I couldn’t win now, stronger than I was back then.

“… … .”The demon lords who were stabbed in pain could not speak for an instant.

“Do you think I came here to deal with you without thinking? If there was no victory, the decisive battle would have been avoided. Isn’t that normal?”

If I had practiced hap-gong on a regular basis, I wouldn’t know again, is there any way demon kings with a high nose would do such a thing? Since I have basic skills, I was able to match hands and feet appropriately by just noticing it, but it was not enough to deal with Cha Shin Hyeon. A simple attack was not effective because it could not be weakened by accumulating injuries, but simply recovered.

“ね… … .”

Jerry Kuhn bit his lip and yelled.

“Aren’t you worried about your subordinates? When the fortress falls, you will be left alone!”

“Isn’t it a pity at all how many people died? I’m a little sorry for the dragons dying, but… … .”

The tip of the sword pointed at Jerichun wiggled.

“I’ll just have to kill you all before I die. Why don’t you call the last guy over there watching?”

“How dare you!”

“No, it will not.”

Duras opened his mouth before the furious Jerry Kuhn could say anything more.

“We ended up being three without being able to kill the four, but I don’t think it’s really going to win if we become four again.”

“You? What kind of weak sound are you talking about now!”

“I was just stating the reality. I’m angry, but he’s stronger than us, aren’t we? There is no way we can win against the strong.”

Duraus’s eyes gleamed gloomy.

“So I hope you understand what I’m doing.”

next moment.

A blood-colored energy was pushed out of the demon king’s whole body like a rage. As if the foggy scene was filmed with a high-speed camera, a red air current filled the surroundings in an instant and spread out.

“no?!”

It must have been that he was secretly preparing for it, so it was a very quick development speed. Jerichun and Bardos didn’t even have the time to stop. In the meantime, a vast space with a radius of more than a kilometer was dyed bare.

saaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah

A bright red energy, similar to the color of the Demon King Spirit, swirls around the body. With an ominous smile, Duraus said.

“If only one person can make the most of it, wouldn’t it be best for me to do it?”

“You crazy bastard!”

Jerichon roared with anger.

If he had been another demon king, he would not have spit out such abusive language just because he had developed the demon king spirit at will without consulting. It’s okay to go in a way that supports him who puts out all his energy even if he doesn’t like it.

However, Duraus is not an ordinary Demon King. He is a demon king who has received the protection of a demon.

The power bestowed by the demon of slaughter is blood luck (血雲).

Absorbs the energy of all wounded and bleeding beings in the bloody mist. The more you kill the enemy, the more you will get tired rather than tired.

The problem is that this is not the ability to distinguish enemies.

In other words, if Jerichun or Bardos are injured, their energy will be sucked.

The remaining energy remaining on the bodies of the terranil, Silen, and Malpain was already being absorbed by Duraus. The blood was getting thicker and denser.

“Is there any problem?”

Duraus chuckled.

“You don’t know? Your abilities are… … .”

“You get your strength from blood. Oh, you’re afraid I’ll get involved too? What are you worried about, as long as you don’t get hurt, that’s enough.”

“What, what how?”

Jerry Kuhn grabbed his back. It was the main culprit that made Duraus spin more than Cha Shin Hyeon. The term “red-ban” will exist for such a time as this.

don’t get hurt? Fighting a guy you couldn’t kill even in a 4v1 fight? If it had been an opponent that could be beaten cleanly without injury, things wouldn’t have gotten to this point!

“If you’re worried, just watch from afar.”

Duraus, who blew out a laugh, opened the subspace. When he was in harmony with other demon lords, the name weapon he had not used because he was uncomfortable was revealed.

It was a whip over three meters in length. It resembled its owner, and the color was also a very eerie dark red. Even if there is blood, it doesn’t look like it will come out.

However, it was questionable whether an object with plenty of sharp conical thorns should be called a ‘whip’. What is certain is that it is a very effective weapon to see the blood of the opponent.

“It looks brutal.”

“I’ve painted quite a bit of Jinryong’s flesh in the past.”

Durus, who had been waving lightly at the tip of his wrist, suddenly swung his arm.

chan!

A whip, as straight as a spear, flew at Cha Shin Hyeon’s heart. It was a different level of speed than anything I had seen before.

The tip of the whip pierced Cha Shin Hyeon’s body.

There was no income because it was an afterimage made on Lee Hyung-hwan, but the moment he realized that it had penetrated the virtual image, Durus immediately gave his wrist strength. Cha Shin Hyeon, who had avoided sideways, was chased by a whip curved like a snake.

Jerichun and Malpine, who noticed the movement a step later, sharpened their teeth and leaned back for a while. Due to the nature of the whip, which has to give enough space to wield, if you are nearby for nothing, you will be hit by an ally’s attack.

Instead of dodging again, Cha Shin Hyeon raised his sword. He hit the tip of the whip with all his might.

taaaah!

A loud shock wave rang out. The whip and sword bounced in different directions.

Cha Shin Hyeon frowned. The power of the whip was not normal. No matter how advantageous the distance was for the whip, he was pushed slightly now.

He was the one who had fought many times with the demon king who did not turn on the demon king spirit and the demon king who turned on the demon king spirit. Judging from his experiences, Duraus was much stronger than the other demon lords.

Finding the cause was not difficult. Because he knew, at least superficially, about the powers Duraus had been given.

“That’s why I wanted to kill you quickly.”

The corners of Cha Shin Hyeon’s lips twisted.

It was natural that the protective demon king with special abilities was the number one priority to kill, but Duraus abhorrently saved himself at every decisive moment. I couldn’t just openly aim for one player from the standpoint of being hit, so I was only looking at the opportunity, but he hit the player first.

“Your intentions were clear. Did you think I didn’t know that the attack was focused on me? You can’t do it knowingly.”

“So you made a colleague a scapegoat?”

“You’re a victim. It’s just a sad result of not being able to endure you. I am very grateful that death gives strength to my colleagues.”

It’s not an awakening in the spiritual sense, but it’s actually absorbing blood from the corpse, so it’s helpful physically. What a beautiful camaraderie!

Thinking so sincerely, Duraus smiled broadly. The expression of the combination of madness and living was excellent.

“So, remember all the demon kings who died for you, and don’t kill you.”

The whip, which had briefly returned to its master, was swung again.Blood flowed through the weapon that exceeded the speed of sound. A terrifying energy surged from the red afterimage left along the trajectory.

Baba Baba Bak!

I had the illusion that the thorn stuck in the whip was being fired. To be precise, the youthful energy of the whip was shot from the tip of the sharp thorn.

Since it is within the Demon Lord’s Spirit, natural swords cannot be used. Instead, a mixture of aggression and pre-spirit power blocked the front with the power of the heart sword. The wall of the river blocked countless red arrows.

Cheeky profit!

The whip cut the shield diagonally and advanced. The whip that seemed to tear Cha Shin Hyeon’s entire body was blocked by the sword that appeared.

The dark blue shining like a shiver and a blood cloud burning bright red collided over and over again. The encounter of Cheong-Hong, reminiscent of Taegeuk, did not harmonize at all and attacked each other non-stop.

Aww! Quang! bang!

A whip is a normal weapon that has to lose its power once it is wielded. But no matter what kind of trick he was playing, Duraus’ whip continued to wriggle as if he was alive alone.

But if there is not much gap, it is not.

Until a little while ago, the four of them couldn’t push back, but now they are alone in an equal number. Because of that, Duraus was very excited and was swinging his whip.

The weakness of all weapons is that the closer they get, the less powerful they are.

Boo woo woo!

In the midst of a confrontation between power and power, Cha Shin Hyeon took a sharp turn in strategy. When he chose to dodge instead of facing each other, the whip passed in front of him with a terrifying blast.

Cha Shin Hyeon’s new model, which caught the momentary gap, was shot forward.

Digging inward with exhilarating movements, he slashed his sword like lightning. The red sword flies aiming at the heart of the Demon King.

That was the moment.

pit!

Two flashes of light flew silently.

It would have been nice if it was a trivial attack, but the surprise attack by Jerichun and Bardos after having had enough time to gather their strength couldn’t have been so accommodating.

Fluffy!

Three cracks were heard almost simultaneously.

Even considering the injury, it was the sound of Cha Shin Hyeon’s attack to finish it now. The attack from the two demon lords pierced the body, but Cha Shin Hyeon’s sword pierced Duraus’s heart with precision.

However.

Instead of stopping, the whip he had been avoiding earlier changed its direction and was shot at Cha Shin Hyeon’s back.

“What?!”

There was no time to dodge the whip that struck at an unexpected timing, no time to draw a sword and respond. Cha Shin Hyeon hastily moved his left hand.

Whoops!

It was blocked, but it was a great loss to grab the whip with his bare hands and try to hold it. The pain engulfed me as my palm pierced through the thorns.

Unfortunately, the surprises did not stop there.

Apparently, even though his heart was broken, Duraus was moving. His hand, which had not caught his whip, swung him spear.

Reflexively, Cha Shin Hyeon withdrew, but it was too late.

Aww!

Bloody luck hit Cha Shin Hyeon’s body properly.
