EP.14 Nightmare (1)
Nightmare (1)
The surroundings are dark.
It is heterogeneous to be night and contradictory to not be. I checked to see if the moon was up.
I can’t see anything.
Clouds and sky are definitely things that should be there.
Not a single one existed.
Where is this?
All the trees in the vicinity were burned, and only ashes remained in the place where the palace was supposed to be built.
The body moves slowly. It wasn’t my will. I try to find ownership of the body somehow, but it doesn’t work.
I’m about to take a step, but I feel someone grab my ankle. I look back and see a man covered in blood.
Plum blossom pattern on white clothes. This is the martial attire of the Munpa, which is very well known in the midfield.
Volcanic Wave.
Yes, this is a volcano.
All the flowers that should have bloomed brightly have burned and lost their original appearance.
All of that history is now gone.
Only then did I realize
This is a dream.
It’s also a terrible nightmare.
[How did you do this…!]
The man said to me. The resentment and resentment on his face was palpable.
I left my severed arm behind and was holding my ankle with my left arm.
Eyes that look red from bursting veins look as if they are shedding bloody tears.
[What did we do wrong…!! How are you doing this to us!!]
A voice screaming for the veins to burst. The corpses of those dressed in uniforms like men were scattered around.
Everyone, from young children to old people, was in a state of breath, without distinguishing between them.
That too, with a gruesome appearance, as if bitten by a beast.
[Are you truly human…? How can you wear a human mask and do this!]
The silent body opened its mouth. This, too, was not something I could prevent.
[The ceaseless sound stopped.]
[What…?]
[It means that Maehwaseon, whom you devoted all your energy to, was killed by the religious leader.] [Busssing
! A man of great talent to such a demon…!]
[Doesn’t he still know that the volcano he cherished so much has turned to ashes?]
Shut up, please… Shut up.
[You’re disgustingly shabby to be called prestigious because you can’t do anything.]
Slowly bend your knees and look closer to the man. I could feel the different emotions in the man’s eyes.
Clearly it was fear.
[Look, the priests you loved so much died by my hands, and the brother-in-law who loved you so much died by my hands.] I
stroked the man’s cheek with a hand full of blood. His hands were stained with the blood of his brother-in-law.
Kkeudeukdeuk.
The sound of something breaking came from the man’s mouth. I feel like my teeth are breaking from how hard I clench them.
[The reason why the volcano burned and why you became a wolf is all because of your weakness and incompetence. Volcano, you and Maehwaseon too.]
[Shut up the devil…! A name that will come on the lips of a guy who betrayed the faction and put a knife in his back…!]
As if there were no more small talk, I grabbed the man’s neck and broke it.
The last remaining Mundo of Hwasan ended his life like that.
snap.
I feel the presence of people among the wide puddles of blood. I knelt down and bowed to the crowd.
The eyes did not dare to meet.
His presence gives the illusion that the space is distorted.
Hwasan, which was like Taishan in Shaanxi, hid its presence just by standing there.
Just a close encounter sends all your senses a warning signal.
Heavenly Demon.
He called himself that.
[It’s not bad.]
I can’t properly recognize the sound even though I can hear it.
Is it a male voice? Or is it a woman’s voice?
It sounded thick, but also sounded thin like a woman.
The Heavenly Demon suddenly threw something in front of me.
The old man’s neck as if it had been ripped off.
This was none other than the neck of Maehwaseon, who was called the absolute master of Hwasan.
[It wasn’t enough to please the main seat, but I was able to get even shallow pleasure.]
Even if it wasn’t a middle court triad, a master who was considered to be on the same level as him was killed so easily.
As if the fact that there was a battle was a lie, the peaceful Heavenly Demon looked around and approached me.
[It looks like a wild beast.]
He came right in front of me.
It feels like suffocating. I couldn’t move at all.
[In this situation, I don’t have to worry about what name to give you.]
I want to wake up. I wanted to run away from this dream as soon as possible. Why are you showing me this?
[You…]
I heard the Heavenly Demon say something. I didn’t listen to the end.
“Lilynim…!”
[…From now on.]
“Bocchan!”
I opened my eyes at the sound of Wi Seol-ah’s voice.
******************
I was on my way back to Gujia after the Guryong Association.
“Uweeeeeek!”
As soon as I woke up from my dream, I hurriedly stopped the wagon and ran out.
I couldn’t stand the bubbling. I sat down on the ground and spat out vomit.
I didn’t eat anything today, but it poured endlessly from my insides.
‘Fuck… fuck!’
body trembles Why did I suddenly have this dream?
It was something I pretended to forget. To the point where I would want to tear out the memory and throw it away if I could.
I feel a hand on my back. swung around and grabbed
When I held it with trembling hands, it was Wi Seol-ah’s hand.
Wiseol-ah was looking at me with startled eyes. The violent shaking of my eyes overlapped with the fear the man in my dream was showing me.
how do i look now?
I felt like I knew it without seeing it myself. It will be a mess.
It is not easy to manage facial expressions.
First of all, I slowly let go of the hand I was giving. Wi Seol-ah hides her frightened expression and calmly pats my back again.
Mu-yeon, who was escorting the wagon, also hurriedly ran.
“young master! Are you okay…? Right now, the councilor…!”
“It’s okay, so calm down…. How do I get a doctor here?”
It is still a mountain bone that goes back to Sega. There is no way you can find a clinic near you.
He breathes heavily, but doesn’t calm down easily.
The memory of the day when the Volcano Sect was destroyed at the hands of the Demonic Cult.
It was the day when the checkpoint at the old file room collapsed in just one day.
It was something I wanted to forget, but it was just a dream and I ended up like this.
‘…It’s something that never happened, and it’s something that won’t happen anymore.’
This is a phrase I repeat hundreds of times a day. It was a thought that he repeated while walking, eating, and even breathing.
“…Fuck.”
Humans are said to be oblivion animals.
Why is it that sin karma cannot be forgotten after all, even after death?
After a while, it did not calm down easily, so I ended up forcibly calming it down by surrounding it with internal energy.
It was an inefficient action, but I couldn’t help it to start quickly.
The inside of the body warms up when you turn the mouth-watering ball.
I am writing that I will calm my trembling body because I have nightmares even though I have no internal skills.
It was a feeling I couldn’t explain.
“I feel like a real dog..”
I thought I had calmed down a bit, so I got up. Wiseol-ah tried to support him, but he pushed it away, saying it was okay.
Why did I have this dream?
Is it because of the anxiety that it will eventually happen even if it returns to the past?
‘Never mind, it’s just a nightmare.’
After regurgitating a handful, I still felt that my mind had cleared up a bit.
It was a matter of solving the twisted insides by sim-beop as you go, or by taking a little more rest.
At that time, I felt something in my five senses that had developed due to the bet. I laughed dejectedly at the unpleasant sensation of stabbing my spine.
‘It’s unlucky.’
Dreams are also wild, but why are they doing so much mischief for something to happen?
As he was about to climb into the carriage, he turned around and approached Mu-yeon.
I said to Mu-yeon, who was hurriedly restless.
“Lead free.”
“Yes, Bocchan…! Shall we look for a member of the council?”
“Don’t say anything strange and quickly check the status of the demonic line.”
Moo-yeon must have felt cold at my words and quickly took out an amulet in her arms.
It was an amulet developed by a shaman in the past, and if a bet was blown into it, a signal would appear when a nearby demon gate appeared.
The amulet he took out of his pocket showed no signs and was in good condition.
Mu-yeon wiped her chest as she looked at the amulet that had nothing to do with it.
“Huh… I was surprised to hear you suddenly and seriously, Bocchan. Fortunately, nothing happened…”
While Moo-yeon continued to speak, the amulet glowed red and disappeared in an instant.
There was no hesitation. Muyeon immediately shouted at the soldiers escorting the surroundings.
“Magyeongmun occurs! All ready for battle!”
As soon as Muyeon shouted, the surrounding escorts immediately drew their swords. Tension is superimposed on the chaotic atmosphere.
Something happened on the way back. The fact that the Magic Ship Department was burned in such a hurry meant that the location of the Magic Gate was very close.
If I had been a little further, I would have been able to escape.
It was my fault for stopping the wagon in the middle.
Mu-yeon urgently grabs my shoulder.
“Boss, it’s dangerous, so you have to get inside the carriage first.”
I immediately pushed Wi Seol-ah and the other attendants into the carriage.
Then he closed the door and stood next to Muyeon.
“You, too, must come in quickly. It’s a really dangerous situation right now…”
Normally, I would have just stuck inside the carriage and waited for it to pass, but I couldn’t because there was something that happened because of me.
I don’t know if I didn’t have an accident in the first place, but I decided to live by myself in this life.
That way things like before won’t happen.
“Broken…!”
“I’ll listen to the unreasonable nagging later, so look at the front first. come.”
As Mu-yeon fixed her eyes on my warning, the air distorted as if she had waited.
The empty space, which had been distorting while emitting green light, soon cracked open and created a space.
“Green…”
Moo-yeon whispers softly.
greenish red white. It was the order of colors representing the stages of the Magic Gate. Fortunately, if it was green, it was the Magic Gate with the lowest risk.
-Rurrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr
_
It was a huge wild dog that appeared through the demon gate. To be precise, a monster with the appearance of a wild dog.
It was a strange looking monster with a horn in the center of its forehead in the appearance of a wild dog.
“He’s a bit of an awkward guy.”
Deer horn dog.
A monster with quick footwork and fangs capable of chewing rocks. He was also the one who tried to tame a monster once in the Murim League.
Of course, the results were unsuccessful.
‘The number is a little over ten.’
If we were to count the number of monsters that came out of the Magic Gate, it was neither more nor less than the average.
Monsters don’t have intelligence. It means there is no such thing as hesitation.
The deer dog spotted us and immediately rushed at us.
Muyeon also leapt at them. The leadless sword that avoided the claw cut off the horn of the creature.
A single sword.
The fluttering of the smokeless sword proved that he was a first-class warrior.
The deer horn dog collapsed as it were. Horns were a weakness for them.
Same with other escorts. The confrontation with the monster began.
Between those who hunted monsters with a wagon as the center, I picked up the soil on the floor of JuseomJuseom.
-Kreurreu….
While Muyeon is dealing with another guy, a guy who is aiming for me approaches.
The drooling felt like finding prey. A look younger and weaker than others.
It was a perfect condition for them to target.
-Kwaaang!
The deer dog howls and runs. It rotates the stomatitis whirlpool that was gently spinning around the body more quickly.
I felt heat rising through my body.
Thanks to that, I turned my body faster than usual and avoided his claws with a difference of one inch.
Then, he immediately threw the soil he was picking up at the guy who looked back.
-Kwaaang!
I saw the blind man threatening the air here and there.
It’s a big guy, so even if he can’t see, it’s not that he’s not intimidating.
I picked up a rock rolling on the ground and threw it near him. thud! The boy reacts to the sound.
I drove the ball of flames that had been spinning all over my body into my arm.
‘If you hesitate, you will die.’
Taking advantage of the gap where my nerves were focused on the rock, I took a short leap and shoved my arm into the guy’s side.
– Fu-wook!
The Horned Dog’s weakness is horns, but there was one more common weakness of monsters.
It is a magic stone held inside the body.
For those without a heart, the magic stone was the heart.
Since he wasn’t a swordsman and couldn’t break his horns with his current body, he thrust his reinforced arm into his body and pulled out the magic stone.
There was a texture that got in the way, but there was no problem in finding and picking up the magic stone by digging into the flesh.
-Fuck!
The hand was pulled out, and blue blood gushed out, proving that it was a monster.
-Kreukreuk…!
Just like when the horns were cut off, the deer dog collapsed.
I looked back with the magic stone in my hand and saw another deer dog running at me.
– Aaaaang!
“Ah, this is…!”
I was trying to hurriedly turn the ball of mouth flames that had been driven into my arms back to my entire body, but I didn’t have enough time.
Just as his sharp teeth were about to ram into me, a flash of light brushed past his horn. It was a leadless sword.
“young master! Are you okay…”
Mu-yeon looked at the deer dog lying in front of me with its side pierced and shut up.
“Thank you, I almost died doing it.”
“Yes… I’m glad.”
I feel that you are looking at me with strange eyes. It was the gaze I felt on the first day of returning.
What kind of eyes would it be….
I thought too quickly about the time to end hunting monsters.
Apparently, they were the ones who escorted the direct line, so they weren’t the ones who would be in trouble with the demonic scriptures at the lowest level.
Even in Pyo-guk, it was Ma Gyeong-mun that I often encountered while going on Pyo-haeng.
In a world accustomed to the existence of demonic scriptures, this was just an unfortunate accident.
After killing all the monsters that appeared, the demon gate disappeared in the air, but the remains of the monsters remained intact.
“Then, the only thing left to do is to send a message from the Gu family…”
He closed his mouth while talking to Muyeon.
It felt like my palms were tingling.
It is a familiar energy that I felt tired of in my previous life. I couldn’t be mistaken.
“Bocchan, why are you like this?”
I looked at the hand holding the magic stone.
The color of the magic stone, which had been tinged with green, gradually faded and became transparent.
At the same time, though it is small, you can feel the inner energy building up in your body.
My lips quiver. I’ve been sick of this in my past life.
A martial art that extracts the power of magic stones and absorbs them into the body.
“What the fuck is this…!”
This was definitely the Heavenly Demon’s martial arts.
