00445 Hatred, and conflict. ————————————————– ———————-=
When I think about it, I remember that the dead people that appear in ‘Land of Hatred’ were very strong and difficult. Even the users of Istantel Row, which boasted a top level, had some difficulties. Of course, it was a mistake, but as a result, one death occurred.
The role I had at the time was Keeper. Of course, he was only a keeper, and in reality, he was in a position to retreat to the rear and watch his comrades fight. Because at that time, I was not skilled enough to support the battle, let alone confront the deceased.
But now I am different. Compared to then, we now have user information that can be called the difference between heaven and earth. Didn’t they catch Mamon, one of the 14 demon lords, with this information?
That’s how confident I was, and I kicked up the ground vigorously. And as soon as he rose into the air, he took out a sword with his left hand. Although he was holding the Sun and Moon God Sword in his right hand, he planned to use both swords at the same time this time.
Wow!
Finally, the moment I saw the black head below, the deceased suddenly let out a scream and raised his (what seemed to be) face to look at me. Then, when he faced the dark red gaze that seemed to be dozens of times older, the dead man’s arm, which was hanging down to the point of touching the ground, twitched once.
At that very moment, I instinctively raised the Sun and Moon God Sword.
Huh!
I knew it. At the same time as he lifted the Sun and Moon God Sword to the top to defend himself, a massive arm was cut through the wind and crushed him.
It was an attack that happened out of the blue. However, because he was defending himself with a premonition, the dead man’s arm was torn apart by the blade that was blazing with the light of the sun, like the sea that met Moses. It seemed like he was trying to strike the body all at once, but it was not enough for the power of the Sun and Moon God Sword and the power of a swordsman expert.
I was able to easily block the first attack, but I didn’t let go of my nerves. As soon as the body descended, the deceased’s remaining arm was bent and twisted once again. Just as it was about to explode again, I activated a heterogeneous attack aimed at the deceased’s rear.
Tsupot!
After a while, the vision before my eyes changed completely. I, who had been floating in the air a moment ago, suddenly saw the dead man’s backside in front of me. In the air where I was just now, dozens of dead people’s arms were passing by like a chain being struck.
Although it was only for a moment, both arms were tied together. His body was still descending. I placed the martial sword and the sun and moon sword in a straight line and raised them high in the sky. Then, using his strength, magic power, and the additional force of falling, he swung his arm with all his might and cut off the deceased’s head. The two swords struck down and cut cleanly through the top of the dead man’s head.
Bjjeujeujeujeojeop!
The first feeling I felt was that of a hard lump of flesh being cut away. But there isn’t a single hitch. Rather, black things gush out like a fountain from the body of the deceased, which is split into left and right sides.
As if the plum ride was coming to an end, the two swords vigorously cut the dead man apart, stopping only when his feet touched the ground. Perhaps because I applied too much force, my foot got stuck deep in the dirt, but I quickly pulled my foot out and dug myself out. Of course, I was disappointed if it continued like this, so I didn’t forget to give it a magical explosion.
Boom!
After drinking heavily and seeing that the outside of the deceased had become bulging, I somersaulted three or four times and landed backwards.
After defending the line, he occupied the rear with Lee Hyeong-hwan, and then cut open the top of his head, finishing with a magical explosion.
This continuous attack, which I always like to use, went perfectly. It was an attack that had the power to send anyone, whether a user or a monster, to the goal, but the opponent was a mass of hatred mixed with dozens or hundreds of dead people.
One of the reasons I thought it was difficult earlier is because of the deceased’s endless regenerative power. This dead person was a monster that rushed forward with nothing but blind hatred until all the dead people in its body disappeared.
I’m not sure exactly how much more I have to attack, but it’s a good start. I calmly adjusted my sword, intending to cut it down gradually without rushing. And the moment I looked at the deceased again, I felt strength coming into my eyes.
Wow… .
‘why… . ‘Is that it?’
As expected, the deceased’s body was already split into two parts. no. To be precise, should we say that it is in the process of being restored? If you look closely, you can see the dead people flowing out from the cracked surface and flowing like waves. It seemed like the separated sides were somehow connected, but it doesn’t seem to be perfectly connected. In short, he looked like he couldn’t dance.
‘if… .’
I looked down at the sword in both hands. A sword that can strike beings of all dimensions. The sun and moon god sword that defeats demons. And the power of a swordsman expert who can cut through anything. Could it be that these three factors combined to influence the rebirth of the deceased in some way?
Several thoughts came to mind for a moment, but I immediately put them aside. Whether the prediction is right or wrong, things are good now. Anyway, it was good news that we could deal with the deceased a little more easily.
After a while, the deceased staggered and turned around. He must have been unable to regenerate it perfectly, as he noticed a cross section that seemed to have been forcibly slanted due to poor sewing skills.
But the hatred remained. Before I knew it, the deceased had completely turned towards me. The red-black eyes emanating from her entire body were watching me with even more heated hostility than before. Then he immediately grabbed both of her hands and lifted them up large and slowly. It looks like he’ll probably take the same shot as I did.
So, I calmly lowered my waist and bent my knees. And without delay, they rushed inside.
Just as the deceased stretched out his arms and raised them, I could feel the swift movement as long as he kept pace with me. I slightly turned my eyes and looked at the place where the presence was detected. And one second later, I could see a woman soaring with all her might at a speed that made it impossible for the deceased to react. She was Nam Da-eun.
In an extremely short period of time, the deceased’s arms began to tremble.
Nam Da-eun quietly soared 10 meters without making any sound, then twisted her orbit in an instant and fell like a ray of light. And at the same time that ‘Seol-ah’ slashed the deceased’s right shoulder violently, a scream erupted and her body tilted greatly.
I didn’t miss that opportunity. As it passed by, he vigorously cut down the leg that had lost its balance and stumbled.
thud! Boom!
The first sound is the sound of the deceased collapsing. The second sound is… .
Slurp!
Excellent water!
Judging by the dust pouring down on his hair, it seemed like he had hit the ground. Even though he fell, it looks like he somehow hit the ground. Anyway, it was such a wasted effort.
I stared at the deceased again, whose movements were sluggish. I’m not scared anymore.
The subsequent treatment was so easy that it felt like eating rice cake while lying down.
Even in his collapsed state, the dead man swung his arms indiscriminately, but Nam Da-eun and I took turns attacking the dead man in a hit-and-run manner.
I concentrated on cutting off the deceased’s arms and legs, blocking any further movement. And while the deceased was distracted by regeneration, Nam Da-eun persistently attacked his upper body by jumping here and there. In particular, the stabbing only focused on his neck, which made my stomach feel cold for no reason.
In the end, the deceased’s attack cycle gradually slowed down, and he lowered his head helplessly, his limbs gone. Since before, he had continued to let out empty screams, and something was dripping from his mouth.
Wow… . Wow… .
Finally, when the barely attached neck was cut off, a faint scream came out from the deceased’s mouth.
Then, soon all movement completely stopped.
“Don’t you think we get along quite well?”
When I confirmed the deceased’s death with my third eye, I could see Nam Da-eun smiling and wiping her forehead.
“It’s not that they fit together, it’s that they fit together well.”
“It’s either that or that. Because our hands and feet fit so well together and our inner compatibility is good… .”
“Now that I think about it, there were a total of three guys that appeared. “I don’t know if the other clan members are fighting well.”
“Kick. Everyone seems to be doing well… ?”
The comment was a bit embarrassing, so I quickly changed the topic. And while intentionally ignoring Nam Da-eun, he looked at the clan members currently fighting.
And at that moment, I could see why Nam Da-eun was speechless.
‘What the hell is that…’ . what?’
thud!
As soon as I thought about it, a deceased person collapsed.
That’s not the problem, the clan members’ battle was strange. They clearly told us to split into groups and deal with one guy each, but what we could see now was that eight people were dealing with two guys at a time. In other words, they had just dealt with one person.
“Nam Da-eun.”
“I will apply right away.”
For a moment, I wondered what I was doing, but for now, I ran with Nam Da-eun.
A pitch black curtain was spread across the land around where the clan members were fighting. It seemed like Heo Jun-young used ‘Apocalypse’, a unique ability of the secret class ‘Silent Executioner’. It seems that the deceased’s regenerative power was suppressed with the authority of the ‘Almighty Barrier’, but for the time being, it was a good choice.
From the time there was only one guy left, the odds were in favor of the clan members. In addition, Nam Da-eun and I attacked the rear at the same time, so we were able to easily take out the remaining guys.
After confirming that the deceased had fallen down with the same thud, I turned my attention to my clan members.
“… after.”
“Tsk… .”
And soon, we could sense that the air currents surrounding each other were strangely strange. It looked like they were trying to suppress their huffing and puffing with their mouths tightly shut, but one person was openly glaring at the other person. I quenched my appetite while looking into Yujeong’s red eyes.
‘Something out of the ordinary?’
Anyway, just as I was trying to calm the situation down, I suddenly heard Yujeong snorting.
“what the.”
Yu-jeong shook her head with an angry look on her face and threw away the dagger she was holding. With a thud, the dagger was driven deep into the ground.
“Ugh it’s frustrating… . “I really can’t do it.”
“… I beg your pardon?”
The person who answered was none other than Hanbyeol. Hanbyeol was also so angry at Mu that his usual self-control was gone. He was looking at Yu-jeong with cold eyes, just like he did during the first rite of passage.
“Are you just talking to me?”
“yes. But what?”
When Hanbyeol responded provocatively, Yujeong let out an absurd laugh. She then suddenly kicked away her dagger that was stuck in the ground.
The dagger rolled around and stopped at Hanbyeol’s toes. Hanbyul looked down for a moment and let out a similarly absurd laugh. It was a cold laugh.
“under. “What are you doing now?”
“under? under? driving me crazy… . Hey, are you asking now because you don’t know?”
“So what?”
“ah… . Let’s just quit. I don’t want to fight with my brother, but anyway, manage your aggro properly from next time. Because I almost lost everything because of you earlier. huh?”
“now… .”
“Okay, give me the dagger. “It’s too annoying to say more.”
Hanbyul had a very resentful face. When Yujeong cut her off, her face turned red, but then she took one look at me and calmly closed her eyes. It felt like the movement of my neck once or twice was somehow trying to calm my stomach.
Eventually, Hanbyeol opened her eyes, and although her eyes were still cold, she opened her mouth in a tone that she could barely bear.
“… sorry. sister.”
“Okay, just pick up the dagger. And suddenly, for some reason, unni. “It gives me goosebumps.”
Hanbyul chewed his lips. And just as he was trying to pick up the dagger that had fallen at his feet with slightly trembling hands.
Someone quietly stopped Hanbyeol and picked up the dagger that Yujeong had kicked away. He then looked at Yu-jeong for a moment and threw it high into the air as if telling him to catch it on his own. The dagger, which drew a soft arc, soon passed by Yu-jeong and stuck near his foot. It was Woo Jung-min.
“User Lee Yu-jeong. “I think that’s a bit harsh.”
Yujeong glanced down and spoke softly.
“What’s so serious?”
“Speak clearly. It’s not that we failed to manage the aggro, but didn’t they come towards us more than necessary? “Very openly.”
“More than necessary? It’s not? huh? I don’t think I said something wrong? “Isn’t that right?”
“Even if there were minor mistakes between us, we eventually worked together to resolve them. We are colleagues… .”
“okay. Who said what? Anyway, it’s true that in the end, they couldn’t manage it.”
“… I wish you wouldn’t keep being so sarcastic. “Now you’re starting to get angry.”
When Yoo-jeong shrugged and laughed, Woo Jung-min responded with a harsh voice.
I don’t know the context, but I can get a rough idea by looking at the kids talking. Just when I thought they were having a good time, Shin Jae-ryong with an awkward face blocked the space between them.
“now. Why is everyone like this? The battle is over and you are now looking at the Clan Lord. “Let’s all stop and reorganize.”
Still, no one shows any signs of moving.
I was quiet and lost in thought. In some ways, it was a sudden conflict, but it was understandable. I thought that perhaps the biggest reason was the field effect of the area where we were standing.
Also, the journey lasted over a month and the battles were fought one after another. Everyone was exhausted and stressed before coming here, knowingly or unknowingly. I wondered how I had been able to endure it so well without showing it, but in the end, as I entered the ‘land of hate’, it turned into a time bomb that I didn’t know when it would explode. This happened because of a minor mistake in a battle a while ago.
It seemed like everyone was trying hard to hold it in, but in the end, one person couldn’t hold it in and burst out. Other users would have also burst out in response.
“Huyu.”
As I let out a short sigh, I could see the eyes of my clan members focused.
I tasted my food one after another and quietly opened my mouth.
“I can roughly guess what happened. I think it was my biggest fault. “I’m sorry everyone.”
“Oh, no. Clan Lord.”
Shin Jae-ryong spoke with a helpless expression on his face, but I shook my head to tell him not to say more.
At that time, Ansol pursed his lips and sent a silent signal to Yujeong, and Yujeong blinked several times and bent down in panic.
I opened my mouth right away.
“stop.”
Then, Yujeong’s hand, which was just about to pick up the dagger, suddenly stopped.
“It was my fault for not being able to prepare thoroughly because I was in a hurry.”
I developed the art of emptiness. The dagger came out of its own accord, spun around, and came into my hand.
Yujeong slowly lifts her waist and looks at me carefully.
I continued speaking.
“It’s my fault for bringing you here.”
“Oh, brother. That’s not it… .”
Yujeong raised her head with an anxious face, but as soon as she made eye contact with me, she quickly lowered her eyes. The clan members around me were all avoiding my gaze, and I don’t know what kind of expression I was making right now.
I tried to remain as calm as possible and looked down at the dagger in my hand.
Skurepp. This is a dagger used by the demon Belphegor. It is a kind of magic sword that will drive the wearer’s mind crazy if used incorrectly. I stared at this for a moment, then gently grabbed the sword body, which was emitting red light, with both hands.
“It’s my fault for giving you this in the first place.”
At the same time as he said that, he twisted the dagger with all his might.
Quad, quack, quack!
With the sound of iron being forcibly twisted, the Skurepp snapped in half. As I squished it a few more times, I felt the twisted texture, like a twisted twist, soon tear into several pieces and turn into pieces.
After a while, I lightly shook off my hand and threw away the Skurepp that had turned into scrap metal.
Tuk!
“uh… .”
And Yujeong, who was looking down, let out a faint moan.

Oh, sorry. I went to Joara today, but I was a little late because I stayed up late talking with one person. haha. I was originally going to upload user information one by one today, but it was quite late. So, I hope you will allow me a sweet break, and I ask for the readers’ understanding. ha ha ha.
Have a good day. 🙂
