I Became God of War's Youngest Disciple - Episode 25

25fury

I've reached the battlefield I wanted, but the situation is still not good..

About a minute after the battle in the maw began, I became desperate for the ring sword that I gave to Calzac..

‘Write it…….’

If I had known it would be like this, I would have just kept it..

My main force is still a fist rather than a sword, but in situations like now where I need to conserve my strength, a bladed weapon is still good..

This is because the basic attack power is different from that of a fist..

My external skills are still at a poor level, so I had to use my internal skills at every moment to deal with these snakes..

If you fight it with your bare body, your muscles will be torn and your bones will be shattered in no time..

If I had been hit by Osel with a poisoned dagger and had not been able to convert the extreme energy contained in the poison into internal attack, I would have died a long time ago..

…Looking back. Is it right to just chalk it up to luck??

I had a strange thought that being hit by that dagger might be the starting point of some great fate..

Since my thoughts were literally wandering, I focused my attention on the fight again..

…….

…….

my body is hot.

While I was hitting, kicking, and tearing at the snake babies that were running at me, I suddenly got curious..

‘How many people have I killed??’

I don't remember.

therefore dangerous.

This is evidence that cognitive ability is gradually being affected..

Even though I was swinging my fist with a firearm loaded on it, I felt like it was getting colder.…….

Before I knew it, my breath was covered in breath..

‘It's not good.’

It's really bad.

The reason I can endure this isn’t because I’m particularly good..

The problem of compatibility is that the martial arts I learned are from the Geukyang series..

On the contrary, Calzac had a poor compatibility. It would be difficult to show even half of one's original strength against an enemy like this..

“ha…….”

I exhale hot breath..

Simply put, a flame melts ice, but the melted ice turns into water, and the water extinguishes the flame..

Regardless of the basic compatibility, it means that the longer you fight, the more disadvantaged you become..

If my level has reached a level where I can evaporate even the moisture of melted ice, it won't matter whether it's a long game or not..

Right now, my external and internal skills are at an insignificant level..

The biggest variable in the current situation is Gem-su's children..

The cold that naturally flowed from their bodies eroded the surroundings as time passed, and even affected me..

“Haaa-.”

I breathe out again.

How much time is left now?

First of all, the number in sight seems to be similar to the first one..

Wow!

While thinking about useless things, I got hit in the face by the tail. If I had been hit harder, my teeth might have been knocked out..

“This bastard…….”

In return for a slap I had never received, not even from my mother, I tore the owner of the tail to death with my own hands..

And I spit out the blood from the corner of my mouth and think.

Maybe I could die today?

…….

…….

At some point, my mind became hazy as if I was walking in a dream..

There was no pain anywhere, and my right arm was especially sore, but when I looked closely, the wound on my forearm was serious..

I shed a lot of blood.

But what I'm feeling right now is a bit different from the dizziness caused by anemia..

A feeling that the mind and body are separate.

As before, even while thinking about useless things, my hands and feet steadily annihilate the enemy..

At the same time, I was thinking about the words of the third brother, who was particularly talkative..

- The angrier you get, the stronger you become? He looks just like the Hulk.

- Rather than anger, I just feel like the stronger my emotions become, the more I resonate with Cheonhwa Jeilgong. What is the Hulk more than that??

- there is. He has green skin, is very big, and is ridiculously strong.…….

- auger?

- …It looks similar, but it's completely different..

The third brother, who was famous for being a chatterbox, would say useless things nine times out of ten, but sometimes he would say something helpful..

That advice happened to be just that..

- Youngest child, I heard you were a mercenary before you came here..

- Ah yes.

- Do you know? Anyone who works as a mercenary risks their life at least once..

It's not wrong..

In the first place, if a mercenary is in charge, even the easiest mission is not without the risk of death..

Even if you don't realize it, you're risking your life almost every moment..

- Some people pretend that the decision to ‘risk one’s life’ is something noble, but in reality, it is not. Still, it is true that such trials are great opportunities for growth..

- Listen carefully, youngest child..

- Throwing your life on the line and pushing your limits are two completely different things. because…….

“…Because venom and persistence are different.”

I never realized the true meaning of these words when I was alive..

He died on the battlefield without being able to overcome the limit..

What I realized was after that, after experiencing death..

It was in a new place called Yeongsan..

…….

…….

The body remains hot.

My throat felt hot as if I had swallowed a flame, and it felt like lava was flowing inside my skull..

However, it is a contradictory situation in which a sharp chill is felt throughout the body..

It seems like the time to think about useless things is gone now..

I kept fighting.

At some point, the thought of winning faded away, and my body moved according to more primal instincts..

Until the moment I run out of stamina, in order to kill even one more person.

Tuk.

fist,

I stretched out.

“…uh.”

The fist that had been crushing the snake bastards until now touched the scales in vain..

The snake guy also flinched for a moment, perhaps because he was embarrassed..

Sisit.

I soon realize that there is no pain and tilt my head..

I saw a bare fist.

Even if I squeeze the dantian, not a single drop of internal power comes out..

The poisonous snake, which had been tilting its head, changed its attitude and attacked me..

Kyaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa-!

I see the disgusting-looking snake's throat, the lingering chill, and the flashing white fangs..

A moment of desperation.

…….

…….

in other words,

The moment to overcome the limit.

* * *

- you are a funny guy.

once in the past.

Master looked at me and said.

- I have seen countless people called geniuses. There are four masters above you, all of whom have unexalted talents that are hard to find in the world. They also practiced here like you..

- I had to survive in this mountain by any means necessary for a month..

A pitchless voice continued..

I quietly listened to the voice like a sinner being rebuked..

- Everyone went through crises big and small. The crisis didn't necessarily lead to injury, but they all felt death here at one time or another..

At that time, the word ‘once or twice’ pierced me deeply..

Master looked at my face carefully and said,.

- How many times have you almost died on this mountain?.

I do not know.

There were too many to count..

Because at the time, I was busy trying to survive..

- 27It's a bun. 27 times in one month. I guess I almost die at least once a day..

- …What do you want to say??

I was in tears and responded.

Those executed who have only experienced one or two crises at most,.

I almost died more times than I can count.

I felt miserable at the incomparable level difference..

Disappointing.

I thought I was about to hear the words I most wanted to hear from my teacher's mouth, and which I had heard countless times in Badknicker..

- Good job.

I was surprised and looked up and saw an old man with a kind expression..

- There have been many crises so far. I was hurt a lot and suffered a lot. No human being can truly be indifferent to death. You faced your biggest fear for a month and overcame it. In the true sense of the word, it has been tempered..

Even if I think about it again.

I think that was the only time I was praised so clearly by my teacher..

- I think it would be better for you to accept the chlorine fire..

- Why??

It was a strange suggestion..

If you could personify fire, you would be a very hot and passionate person..

No matter how much I think about it, it's far from me..

But apart from that,

At that time I already knew.

- The fire attribute of the best warrior of all time and modern times is a martial art that only the most persistent can achieve success..

In martial arts, what the teacher says is generally true..

* * *

Was the jeweler a poisonous snake??

And did Jewelsoo’s children inherit their mother’s fangs?.

I will never know the answer to my question.

Because just before the fangs touched the forearm, the group of snakes disappeared from sight..

Like fallen leaves touched by flames.

“──.”

My head is blank, my vision is as clear as day..

It was cold just a moment ago and I was shaking, but now it's warm..

……!

……!

A group of baby snakes ran towards me, screaming, but I couldn't hear them clearly..

My five senses seemed to have become completely numb, but apart from that, I could feel the movement of the group of snakes so clearly that I could almost feel them..

‘…We entered.’

I laughed and laughed.

Maybe I was completely deaf, but I couldn't hear myself laughing, but thanks to that, I was able to laugh to my heart's content even more without worrying about what other people were thinking..

The snake paused for a moment as if it wanted to avoid the crazy guy, but then one of them swung its tail at me like a whip..

It felt slow enough to make me yawn..

I caught the flying snake by its tail and tore it off..

It was definitely easier than hitting it with a fist. It had the disadvantage of being messy in many ways..

Jeopuk.

And I moved on..

When I thought about it, it was the first time.

In this battle, I was the one who got to them first..

The thing I was most wary of while fighting a group of snakes was being surrounded..

That's why I took a passive defensive stance all along, but there's no need to do that anymore..

Now I knew exactly how many snakes there were..

‘What's left is.’

Roughly about fifteen.

The snakes, who hesitated for a moment, probably thought I was a fool who stepped on a limb, but then attacked again..

I guess it would take a lot of years for them to inherit the name Jewel Tree from their mother..

The attack was extremely simple, but this group of snakes lacked cunning..

Then, now that physical abilities have increased significantly, it doesn't matter whether the number of these guys is ten or one hundred..

Hwareuk.

At some point, the red flame changed its color and became a white flame emitting pure white light..

Likewise, it seemed like I was surrounded by white flame on all sides, but if I looked closely, I was inside the white flame..

‘…The reason why only the most persistent people can succeed in Cheonhwa Jeilgong is.’

This mental technique has the characteristic of becoming stronger the longer the battle continues..

As time passes, the body gradually heats up, and the user feels cold..

A creaky body, a mind that seems to have run away from home, pain like torture..

These elements make you feel like you want to die at every moment, but the more you persist without giving up, the hotter it gets..

-In other words, it gets stronger gradually..

Like a flame that burns just before it goes out and burns without limit to its size..

Physical performance also advances to the point where it exceeds its limits..

When it finally enters an overheating state, white flames appear throughout the body.…….

Master called this state Hwabaek (火白)..

Only practice can lead to true growth..

Achievements that would never have been achieved without the risk of death.

So, I was thankful for today’s battle and struggle..

Kwasik.

Killed the last snake.

I stood there out of breath..

Enjoying the feeling of being born again in the flames.

The cold is now gone.

…….

…….

It was at that moment that something unexpected happened..

[Excellent!]

[A box dance that you risked your life to dance. I will recognize you as a worthy sacrifice to awaken this martial god from his long slumber..]

[Yeonja, you are worthy to be my first believer..]

…What does this mean again??
