Chapter 479

Seongcheon Yoonga (5)

Hoon was the youngest of all the avatars, and at the same time, he was a pure human who did not use any media during the birth process..

In fact, it was natural because it was an object created to be used as an all-purpose management personnel rather than combat..

···Somehow, I ended up fighting on the front lines like this..

‘Moreover, the possibility of future growth has now reached a level that cannot be ignored..’

It was all thanks to the ‘communication chakra’ he had acquired..

The ability to draw the image of another avatar and borrow some of that individual's abilities little by little..

It was as if the seniors who had grown up through all kinds of twists and turns had come to live as one in Hoon's heart..

‘Well, it's actually one thing..’

Of course, it was not possible to perfectly copy all abilities..

It can be said that the fact that the unique skill “Avatar” has become an ordinary self-immolation technique is part of this..

However, considering that the target audience is mostly max-level characters who have reached the peak in their respective positions, it is definitely not something that can be looked upon as a minor copy..

Moreover, if we take into account the fact that thanks to the “wheel-turning sword,” it has become possible to express the power of multiple entities simultaneously.···.

Shhh! Shaak—!

Once again, anticipation was swirling across the board..

A storm of destruction approaches as if it will engulf the entire hallway with limited space..

‘So at least this much···!’

One hoon jumped forward as if to fight against it..

In one hand, he tightly held the long sword made with his own blood..

His sword, which was at the forefront, swung repeatedly at an invisible speed, cutting through the storm..

“What?!”

Luminous blood-red trails beautifully decorated the air..

It wasn't just a knife swing based on instinct..

The combat experience accumulated through various avatars as well as the refined sword skills of a warrior who embraces the concept of ‘martial arts’ through chakra..

As his weak physical abilities were strengthened to the extreme, his power was sufficient to face the storm..

“Useless tricks!”

But the enemy he faced was not a very easy one..

Anton, who had maintained a relaxed attitude, frowned and waved his hand roughly, and his anticipation multiplied in an instant, and he viciously hacked at Hoon, who stepped forward..

Passchuk—

In the end, all Hoon could do, which disappeared in smoke, was create a small gap..

But it was important that once the cracks occurred.

Several more bodies dug into the gap created during the storm, and the hole gradually grew bigger..

“under! The art of self-immolation. Even if you keep killing them, there are no cockroaches that come out. It's an ability that suits you, the wretched guy.!”

Anton, who gradually destroyed several more clones that were approaching him, twisted his eyes filled with madness and scolded them harshly..

In fact, he still wasn't showing his full power..

If the building collapsed, you could get hurt..

‘But now everything else is fine. I'll definitely finish you off first.!’

As the development unfolded differently than he had expected, the last shred of reason was cut off, and he raised his chakra to the fullest..

The chakra he opened was the 'cut' of the upper layer and the 'thread' of the middle layer.’.

‘die!’

As he swung his hand with all his might, several straight lines appeared throughout the hallway..

Damn it—

Unlike before, this was a swift blow that cut through the air without a sound..

The attack was made without anyone having time to react, and all the clones that were in a defensive posture were scattered to pieces..

With the blood-red longswords in their hands.

patter—

Pieces of the broken building fell on the hallway floor..

Hoon, who was able to narrowly avoid the attack by instinctively falling to the ground, gasped in vain as the stone dust hit his face..

Now there was only one thing left in the hallway..

‘How can a blood sword made with so much care cut like tofu like that?···.’

I could definitely intuit it.

If he hadn't suddenly felt an ominous feeling and thrown himself to the floor, he would have been cut in half by the attack just now..

‘This is no joke. If I had been a little late, I would have died by accident. Is it true that he is an upper-class practitioner?.’

Fortunately, this accommodation was not an ordinary building, so it did not collapse in one go..

Anton, the person involved, also seemed to care to some extent..

But there was no doubt that the attack just took a toll on the building's durability..

If the fight becomes more intense, not only Ramu but also those who were moved to the building lobby will be in danger..

‘I can't leave it like that. Finish it as quickly as possible.’

Hoon bounced his body up, his eyes shining sharply..

Anton, looking at him, raised one hand and frowned, twisting the corner of his mouth..

“There's only one of you left. I should have done this a long time ago. After all, they are like bugs···.”

Anton, who was laughing like that, stopped talking..

Then, with a stern look on his face, he quickly turned around and waved his hand backwards..

“dare!”

skaak!

One clone that splits in half as soon as it emerges from his shadow..

But he wasn't the only one who took advantage of the confusion to sneak in..

Three clones emerged from the shadows of the ceiling, walls, and floor and rushed toward him..

“Hunryu Ninbeopjutsu Oui.”

“It's impossible!”

Anton crossed his arms and clenched his open hand tightly..

Like pulling something caught in your finger..

Immediately after that, the invisible threads around him contracted all at once and ground all the clones within range like a blender..

“Kihi! It's pretty good. But that's it.”

The clones who were caught up in the attack and turned into smoke.

But what happened afterwards was different..

The thick scent of blood suddenly rose from the blood-red smoke that did not dissipate and disappear immediately, but lingered around Anton..

“······!”

“Blood Wine—Blood Explosion.”

A soft word from Hoon is heard in his ear as his eyes twitch..

As soon as those words are over.

Kwagwagwagwang—!

Grumble—!

The blood fog surrounding Anton caused a series of explosions all at once..

It was a one-point explosion oriented inward to avoid impacting the building as much as possible..

Ddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddd—

Perhaps thanks to such efforts, the vibration felt infinitely faint compared to the scale of the explosion..

Hoon let out a soft sigh and massaged his temples..

‘Umm, anemia... I can't just use this.’

The clone he summoned was literally just an clone, so there was no blood..

What he meant was that all the blood used so far was his.···.

‘Well, it's an ability for vampires in the first place. If my regenerative ability hadn't increased as I strengthened my body, I wouldn't have even attempted it..’

It was the same with ‘death’.

I could use it if I really wanted to, but I couldn't help but be worried about the side effects that would arise when Hoon, a human, borrowed the power of Hans, the immortal king..

‘In the end, it is best to only use abilities that have fewer side effects.···.’

But as always.

Things in the world don't always go the way you want them to..

“Whoa, how dare this bug-like bastard—!”

An angry voice came from the center of the explosion..

The figure was revealed beyond the slowly disappearing smoke..

Anton's arrogant attitude has gone from bad to worse, and his face is bleeding everywhere..

It seemed as if he had somehow absorbed the impact by wrapping himself in chakra threads right before he was engulfed in the explosion, but as he was staggering around, it seemed like time was running out and he was unable to block it completely..

“I won't leave you alone! I will rip you to pieces and kill you.!”

He got angry and stretched out one arm, and an invisible thread stretched out..

However, the fingertips were pointing in the opposite direction to where Hoon was.···.

“Kikikik! I wasn't going to use this method, but I can't help it! You brought this upon yourself.!”

That was the room where Ramyu was lying..

A sacred barrier was placed, but considering its destructive power, it probably doesn't mean much..

I don't know if they were planning to take me hostage or harm me right away, but in order to respond to anything, I had to move right away..

“Phew.”

But Hoon took a deep breath and closed his eyes on the spot..

There was no need to react to that..

The move that had been attempted since the start of the battle had just been completed..

“···what? Where did you go?”

Just in time, Anton opened his eyes wide in embarrassment..

The hand was constantly waving in the air as if trying to catch something, but now there seems to be nothing there to catch..

“Hunryu Ninbeopjutsu Oui.”

A soft voice echoes again.

Anton's eyes turned to the front again..

He was watching Hoon's every move with wide-open eyes, as if he was trying to figure out some kind of trick, and it seemed like he was trying to react immediately the moment something went wrong.···.

This time, the reactions were all just as we wanted..

Hoon opened his closed eyes..

And looked straight into the other person's eyes and continued speaking..

“Art of Domination—Mystic Eyes.”

giiiiing—

“Sigh?!”

A pair of inverted eyes with eyes as black as obsidian and red as rubies..

The thick blood vessels around the eyes began to protrude and bloody tears began to flow little by little..

“What... is this...···.”

Anton's body, which had been creaking like a broken toy, came to a halt..

Meanwhile, his gaze did not leave for a moment, as if he were nailed to the station where bloody tears were flowing..

Surrounded by a strange magical power, not only my body but also the chakra in my body was frozen solid..

“Oh no.”

Anton barely managed to utter a word with his stiffening tongue..

He had already suffered significant damage from the battle that had continued so far..

In addition, we are faced with the devil's evil eye that has dug into our psychological loopholes..

‘Of course, there is a possibility that you can overcome it with your mental strength..’

There was no need to win the mental battle against oneself, aided by various abilities such as “Great Spirit”..

Due to the nature of the ability, once you reach a certain level, you will be able to escape from this evil eye..

But even taking that into account, Anton didn't have the ability to do that..

‘In other words, it is checkmate..’

Of course, this magical eye was a very burdensome ability even for Hun..

There were many limitations, such as deterioration in the process of borrowing power, clear limitations, longer casting times, and having to look directly into the eyes, but no matter what anyone said, these were the eyes of the devil that had been passed down for generations..

Nevertheless, the reason why I chose this method is···.

‘Now show me.’

My goal from the moment I first decided to subdue Anton..

It was to investigate suspicious aspects of this incident..

‘The secret hidden inside you.’

The power of “psychosensitivity” penetrated into Anton’s mind through his red, bloodshot eyes as he was suppressed by the Demon Eyes..

***

Crying—!

A bolt of lightning fell from the sky and struck the ground..

The essence of destruction that descends at a speed beyond human perception and purifies everything it touches..

“Yikes! It's dangerous?”

However, it failed to burn its intended target and only disappeared leaving behind soot on the ground..

Lucette, who had been floating in the air and breathing heavily as this had already happened several times, frowned again..

“Human butcher, you. Do you intend to fight properly??”

“Huh? But... it can't be helped, right? Because bragging about a wife doesn’t have a good visual appeal. What can I say... I like an opponent that I can hit and fight with more like this..”

At her words, which contained suppressed anger, the shabby-looking man rubbed his beard and savored his appetite..

Although he seemed like an unreliable opponent on the outside, with his harsh tone, glaring eyes, and messy beard, Lucette never let down his guard..

Even though it looks like that, that 'human butcher' was a magic practitioner of equal depth to her..

“So, by the way, can’t we change the partner? Or how about going to catch the other kids? I'll just leave like this!”

“Do you think I will believe that??”

“Wow...how long have I been waiting for today...! I didn't even kill much, but I completely missed it..”

He grumbled and swung a large square kitchen knife in the air..

The knife, which you might only see at a butcher shop, was larger and thicker than commonly known items..

Lucette took a deep breath, checked the safe distance again, and concentrated with a stern expression..

I couldn't let down my guard even for a moment in the fight with that guy..

Otherwise, you will be turned into a piece of meat in the blink of an eye by the blade of a human butcher who has opened the middle chakra of 'slaughter' and the deep chakra of 'murder'..

‘How on earth do so many magic practitioners get into Yunga?···.’

How many enemies has she dealt with so far??

However, even though not only she but everyone except those who guarded the castle were doing their best, the confusion showed no sign of stopping..

Of course I already knew the answer.

No matter how much space you break through, there are limits..

They would have been waiting as close to Yoonga as possible and could only come over to the point where the barrier was neutralized by some kind of method..

‘Just before the incident occurred, many people responded internally. Moreover, the person who took down the counterintelligence network and coordinated the work was quite high-ranking..’

traitor inside.

It was also a case of betrayal by a key person at the manager level..

As a woman with strong loyalty to her family, she had no choice but to take it seriously..

“Huh? What is this! It's already over?”

At that time, the human butcher who had been watching secretly opened his eyes and tilted his head..

“And diya! Where is this law? I was still just a little thirsty.!”

The man began to complain as if he had received some message..

Then his gaze met Lucette, who was looking at him from the air..

“···Ugh, this is all because of that fox. I ended up getting poisoned like that..”

Then he sighed and scratched his head..

It looks like there was an order to retreat..

Of course, she has no intention of letting go of her opponent, so she opens her eyes and raises the lightning again.···.

“······!”

Pajik!

In an instant, her body, which had been hovering in the air, moved sideways with a spark as if being pulled by something..

It was an emergency avoidance using the magnetism of metal structures placed throughout Yunga..

however···.

Push shot—

Lucette frowned when she saw the blood leaking from the scratch on her arm..

I responded right away and didn't even brush against it, but I can't believe it caused such a wound..

I couldn't imagine what would have happened if the reaction had been delayed..

“Oh my gosh, I thought it might work this time..”

As if wondering when he had appeared behind her and swung a knife, the man who had already grown a long distance away licked his lips in disappointment..

Kugugoogung Palace—

Behind him, the broken space was emitting a roar with its mouth wide open..

“Well, there will be many opportunities in the future! I should be satisfied with this much this time..”

A human butcher shrugging his shoulders and leaning forward into space..

He smiled meaningfully and waved at Lucette..

“Well then, see you next time, Noeho girl. Next time, I'll definitely cut it pretty, so I'm looking forward to it..”

“you···!”

Her furious lightning struck the crack in the air, but its destructive energy did not reach the person who had already disappeared beyond space..

“···Phew.”

She bit her lip, caught her breath, and tried to look elsewhere..

Rather than worrying about what has already happened, it would have been much more productive to reduce the number of enemies that still remain..

Her body was struck by lightning and disappeared on the spot..

crunchy!

It was the moment when the large-scale attack on Seongcheon Yunga by magic practitioners that took place in the middle of the night came to an end..
