Episode 149
149. Episode 149
I was planning to kill Bercal, render the orcs incapacitated with the power of fear, and then go catch the demon beast, but the demon beast appeared earlier than expected.
However, what was curious was that the orcs were also confused.
The same goes for the chieftain.
He was frowning, more concerned that his battle had been interrupted than that he had been helped by the demon’s shouts.
“Lord Bercal!”
“Barkan. What are you doing?”
“I brought the Black Demon Ox! If it’s this guy, he can trample that human in an instant!”
It seems that it wasn’t an order from the chieftain. It must have been the orc named Bakan who acted on his own.
‘That cow is no joke, even when I see it again.’
The demon called Heukmaura had the appearance of a black cow, just as its name suggests.
Of course, it wasn’t an ordinary cow, as it was a demon.
With a body as big as a house, its body was full of muscles, and the horns that rose from its head resembled those of a devil rather than a cow.
Something like black smoke was rising from its pupils, and just by making eye contact I could guess how strong it was.
– The constellation, ‘The Crow with its Head Down’, wonders why the devil is in such a low level.
– The constellation, ‘The Hungry Prince’, cheers, saying it is his favorite snack in the Demon World.
Seun looked at his remaining mana and internal energy.
Thanks to my experience in the Lizardman’s village, I was able to adjust well and still had plenty of room to spare.
The same goes for stigmata.
Although it was brief, he still had enough divinity to use the power of madness.
“Bakkan. You just now. Interfered with the warrior’s battle.”
“… … I’m sorry! But, if we just kill that intruder, we’ll become the kings of the swamp!”
“Instead, you will lose your honor.”
“Life is more important than honor! We need Bercal!”
Every time Berkal opened his mouth, blood would gush out from the wound on his neck where he had been bitten.
Still, his stubbornness did not waver.
Honor over life.
He was an orc through and through.
Losing one’s honor was like losing one’s life.
Although Berkal did not give in, the orc named Bakan who brought the demon was also stubborn.
“I will gladly accept the punishment! Chwiik! For the great Black Swamp Tribe!”
“Woooooo-!”
The orc released the rope from the demon’s nose and pulled it forward strongly.
The demon charged, kicking the ground, in excruciating pain felt through his nose.
Naturally, that goal was set.
The orcs, surprised by the devil’s charge, hurriedly distanced themselves.
Because they were the ones who trained the demons, they knew the strength of the demons better than anyone else.
Before clashing with the demon, Seun first manifested the power of jealousy.
– The gaze of the time begins to stare at the ‘Black Horse’.
It was different from when I dealt with Curse Rafflesia.
If the Songjanghwa was characterized by intelligent attacks using poison and roots, the demon in front of him was specialized in strength itself, just like the orc.
To deal with such enemies, it was better to drain one’s strength with the power of jealousy.
‘What a truly ignorant attack.’
The demon’s attacks were simple. It simply charged forward with its thick, sharp horns thrust out.
However, that simple attack was by no means light.
It was as big as a house, and its entire body was filled with solid muscles, so the ground shook with every step it took due to its enormous weight.
If I hit that horn. No, if I just brushed past it or got hit in the leg, I would definitely get seriously injured.
‘There’s no need to fight that guy head on.’
Se-Woon stepped back with his left foot and held out both hands.
Focus all your senses on the sight.
As my internal energy slowly rose and my pupils began to glow faintly, I had the illusion that the world had slowed down for a moment.
The demon that was running while tearing the wind moves in slow motion.
10m. 5m. 2m.
Just before colliding with the demon’s heavy body, Se-Woon made a sharp turn with his right foot, dodging the demon’s attack by a narrow margin and catching the demon’s horn.
– The Taegeuk Sword’s initial attack is strengthened through internal energy.
He fully applies the Taegeuk technique of utilizing the opponent’s strength rather than his own.
Concentrate your strength on your lower body to avoid being pushed away.
However, the power of the devil was stronger than expected.
Even though he was channeling most of his strength away with the power of the Taegeuk, his legs could not withstand the force and he was about to float up.
This wasn’t something that could be done with just brute force. It was a problem caused by the overwhelming difference in weight.
However, up to this point, it was already within the scope of what Seun had thought.
– The Treasure Trove of Greed has been opened.
[ A Thousand-Ward Weight of the Hammer ]
– It is a martial art that uses internal energy to make one’s body heavier, also known as Cheon Geun Chu (千斤錘).
Kookung!
The moment he used the Thousand Geun Chu, Seun’s body became unrealistically heavy.
The weight was so heavy that it made the solid mud it was standing on cave in.
A thousand pounds of weight.
It is merely a skill that lowers the energy to the lower body and firmly holds the center, but the moment the internal energy moves, it becomes possible to actually increase the weight.
As Seun’s feet firmly planted themselves in the ground as if they were rooted in it, the power of the Taegeuk grew stronger and the demon’s body rose lower.
“What?”
Thanks to this, Masu was able to experience the feeling of ‘flying in the sky’ for the first time in his life.
Exactly half a turn like that.
The moment the demon flying through the air releases his strength from the sword hanging from Seun’s horn.
“Woooooo!!”
“Chwiik! Run, run away!”
“Kueuk!”
Wow wow wow!!
It flew right into the middle of the orc formation that was far away.
The massive beast had a force stronger than a cannonball, so dozens of orcs who were unable to dodge were crushed under the beast’s body.
The demon also seemed to have been hit quite hard, as he staggered up from his seat and shook his head.
As soon as he came to his senses, he scratched the ground a few times and then rushed at Seun once again.
However, the results did not change.
Se-Woon used the same technique this time as before, using the Cheon Geun Chu and the Taegeuk technique to place his sword on the demon’s horn.
Boohoo!
After the demon flew halfway through the air.
“This way! Get out of here!”
“Profit!”
“Moooooooo!”
Wow wow wow!!
It flew towards the orc formation on the opposite side.
If he had checked twice, he would have realized that the charge wasn’t working, but he didn’t give up.
The subsequent assault and Seun’s counterattack.
The more this was repeated, the more damage was done to the surrounding orcs.
“Stop it! Keuk!”
“Get away! Everyone, keep your distance!”
“Whew! That makes sense… …!”
The repeated counterattacks seemed to have taken quite a bit of damage to the demon, but it didn’t look too serious.
Those thick muscles seemed to absorb the shock.
And finally… … .
– The eyes of the time are jealous of the muscles of the ‘Black Horse’.
– Take away the muscles of the black horse.
– Steals the Black Horse’s stamina.
– Take away the power of the Black Horse.
… … .
The power of jealousy that had been used beforehand began to exert its influence.
‘Is this good?’
The power taken from the demon overflowed from his body. His muscles swelled and an inexplicable energy filled his body.
At this rate, it seemed like I would be able to fend off the demon’s attacks without having to use the Thousand-Gun Strike.
That’s understandable, because as Seun took away the power of the demon, his own power became weaker.
“Woooooo!”
The demon, whose attacks were not working and whose anger was rising to the top of his head, took sudden action.
He picked up one of the orcs that had fallen beneath him and swallowed it.
The problem was that it wasn’t an orc that had been crushed to death by him, but an orc that was still alive.
“Whoa! What, what!”
Kwajik!
Before I could even scream, an orc entered the demon’s mouth.
The bastard didn’t stop there, but started chewing up and swallowing up all the orcs around him. Among them was the orc named Bakan who had brought the demon.
“Hey, stop! I’m your master! The enemy is that human… …!”
Crunch.
The strong orc’s muscles were crushed like tofu.
The master and all, the demon’s eyes turned red with rage, was already out of their control.
His blood vessels bulged red and his already large and firm muscles twitched even more actively.
The man, who had gained confidence in himself, looked at Seun again.
Does that mean they still have at least a minimal amount of intelligence?
The demon finally gave up on his charge and approached Seun, swinging his head repeatedly.
Two sharp horns waved through the air.
Perhaps it had grown stronger by chewing and swallowing the orc alive, but its horns had also grown larger and sharper.
Every time I swung my head, I could hear the air being torn apart.
From his point of view, he must have been using his head to avoid being counterattacked as much as possible, but he chose the wrong opponent.
Before his return, Seun had briefly observed the body while taking care of the demon.
His entire body was filled with thick, solid muscles, but in one place.
– The third technique of the Blood Wolf Sword Technique, Blood Wolf Attack, is strengthened through internal energy.
Phew.
I knew that the back of his neck was not protected by any muscles.
The sword easily penetrated the body of the demon that seemed like it could deflect any sword.
The demon, who had been attacked so easily, tried to get up, saying that he could not die like this.
– According to the secret of Jahashin Gong, heat is added to the martial arts.
– The power of martial arts is strengthened according to the secret of the ultimate deep attack.
Cheeeeeeek-
Crunch!
With a burning sound, the devil’s nape was completely split open.
Between them, black blood gushed out like water leaking from a bottomless pit.
Because his vocal cords were torn, he couldn’t even scream his last.
Kookung.
– Completed the hidden quest, ‘The Black Cow of the Orc Village’.
– Additional points are awarded for the trial ‘The Monster that Dye’s Swamp’.
He ended his life and collapsed on the spot.
It was an easier battle than I thought. I didn’t even need to use the mad power I had prepared.
– Predated the ‘Black Horse’.
– Absorbs nutrients to increase strength and stamina by 10.
The teeth that appeared when I used the power of gluttony chewed and swallowed the strong muscles of the demon.
Well, it shouldn’t be that difficult since it swallowed up a stone lava made of rock and a guardian made of crystal.
As the demon’s corpse disappeared in an instant, the orcs were able to realize.
Why wasn’t a single corpse found in the Lizardmen tribe’s dwelling?
As I had feared, it was proven that the being in front of me was the one who had scorched the Lizardmen.
– The stigmata react to the tale of the Blood Wolf Legend.
– The first ability of the stigmata, ‘Fear’, awakens.
“Chew, chwiik… … .”
The fear that had been instinctively squirming, the fear that had been trying to hide with the orc’s bravery, grew in size due to Seun’s power.
The orcs began to put down their weapons one by one, kneeling and bowing their heads.
Everyone was terrified, but no one ran away.
Respect for the overwhelmingly strong. It was a reaction that appeared due to their characteristics of following honor and respecting the strong.
“From the moment we brought that guy in, our honor has been on the floor.”
The chieftain stopped the bleeding and approached Seun.
It was clearly a fatal blow, but his recovery ability was so excellent that the bleeding had already stopped and the wound was healing.
But he wasn’t holding a weapon. From the moment he cut off the neck, victory was already certain.
It was judged that taking up arms again would be an act that disregarded even the most minimal honor.
“Bring me.”
Berkal looked straight into Seun’s eyes as he stood before death.
“Protect my last honor.”
Crunch-
Se-Woon, who understood his intentions, swung his sword.
A surprisingly clean blow.
Not only did he perfectly end the life with a single blow by precisely cutting only the vital point, but not a single drop of blood flowed from the cut area.
The orcs, gripped by fear, could no longer move.
– Completed the hidden quest, ‘Early Destruction (2)’.
– Additional points are awarded for the trial ‘The Monster that Dye’s Swamp’.
The two tribes that had been competing for the swamp were destroyed, and peace returned to the muddy swamp. No, complete wilderness returned.
