〈Episode 437〉 Regret. (3)
“…Who are you?”
Her voice made my shoulders tremble.
I looked at her in disbelief.
Namgungbia… no, the Demon Sword Queen.
Clearly she is the Demon Sword Master.
There was no way I, of all people, could not recognize the Demon Sword Master.
The woman who was Namgungbi from my previous life and died for me was right before my eyes.
Unlike Namgung Bi-a, who has white hair, you can see that his white hair has turned pure white.
Although the appearance seemed the same, the atmosphere felt completely different.
If Namgungbia has a hazy, dreamy feeling.
The afterlife was like a darkness where nothing could be known.
It’s a deep darkness that seems like it’ll eat you up if you try to dig into it.
“…”
What should I say?
I had to keep my mouth shut as I looked into the Demon Sword’s blue eyes.
The heavy silence lasted for several seconds. The wind blew.
The wind that blew was filled with the scent of blood that spread throughout the surroundings.
Click.
The sword of the Demon Sword moves.
My whole body is stiff.
The energy that the Demon Sword Master emits from the tip of his sword begins to oppress all directions in an instant.
‘this….’
It was dangerous. All my instincts were telling me so.
I don’t feel any killing intent. That’s how it was with the Demon Sword. He doesn’t show any killing intent when killing others.
You won’t believe how ridiculous this is.
Unless you accidentally kill someone, your will to live will be revealed.
That’s how it was originally.
It depends on how much you adjust this.
The Demon Sword Master was a human who had no will to kill in the first place.
So I think about the past.
It’s not that there is no life, but it’s that it is not felt because it has become life itself.
I’ve had those funny thoughts before.
Now that I think about it, that wasn’t true. She wasn’t a murderous person.
At least I didn’t know it at the time… .

A thunderbolt is felt from the shoulder of the Demon Sword Master.
I frowned at that.
‘… What should I do?’
It’s dangerous.
I don’t know if the situation I’m experiencing right now is reality or an illusion.
If there’s one thing we can be sure of, it’s this.
‘If I die here, I might really die.’
As with all the phenomena we’ve seen so far, if you die here, you might really die.
Knock knock.
Even if you judge it that way, the problem is that there is no solution.
Kugugugugugugu-!
“Ugh…!”
I was brought to my knees by the absurd pressure.
‘… My Emperor… Sword Master…!’
A secret weapon of the Namgung family and a weapon used by Namgung Bia.
That was unfolding in the hands of the Demon Sword Master.
My thoughts and feelings directly.
‘The level is different…’
It seems like the Emperor’s Sword technique that Namgung Bi-a was using was just child’s play.
The power of the Demon Sword Master was on a different level.
Not only me, but everyone around me is overwhelmed by the energy she exudes.
Kuaaaah-!
I had no idea how far the scope would extend.
Crunch! The trees fall down under the pressure, and the rocks crack and crack.
The Demon Sword Master was looking down at me with his blue eyes, as I was doing all I could to just endure.
Sling.
The sword moves.
It seemed slow, but I had to get goosebumps feeling a little bit of the enlightenment contained there.
The Demon Sword Master is strong.
I knew it.
But.
It seems that I had forgotten about this for a while, immersed in peace right after returning.
I had completely forgotten about how strong she was.
Saaaaah-!
The sword lightly cuts through the air.
Advertisements
It was just a light raising of the sword without any complicated movements.
yes-!
A small vibration is heard.
I had to feel death there.
Swish.
The tip of the sword that had been raised was drawn downwards.
The direction in which the tip of the sword flows.
Paaaaaaaah-!
The sky split open.
A sense of awe naturally arises at this absurd phenomenon.
It was a single sword that could be seen as a swordsman who had crossed over walls and reached the union of the two swords.
Phew!
“Ugh…!”
The wind pressure from that recoil made me hold on to the ground and not get blown away.
Even if you see it after a long time, it is still overwhelming force.
It was a sublime realm that could not be compared to the current Namgungbia.
‘…Queen Sword.’
I was able to once again feel the power of the Demon Sword Master, who inherited the name of the Sword Master.
Is this really a fantasy?
No matter how I look at it, it’s too clear to say that.
The wind pressure that was blowing madly is gradually becoming shallower.
As I became more bearable, I had to keep exhaling ragged breaths.
I looked back.
“crazy.”
Fortunately, the Demon Sword Master didn’t swing his sword at me.
Behind me.
He swung his sword as if aiming at something in the distance.
As a result, the sky was split.
I looked up at the sky.
There were still traces of the sword that the Demon Sword had cut down.
The aftermath caused the clouds to stop and not pass by.
Just when I was wondering what on earth he was aiming at when he swung his sword.
Kukukung-! My brain is pounding.
‘What is this?’
It’s not the brain of the Demon Sword Master.
Advertisements
An unknown brain energy was felt from the direction where the Demon Sword Master had attacked.
As evidence, Magumhu frowns slightly.
When you wonder what the heck is going on.
bang….
A small loud noise rings out from the direction where the brain is felt.
It wasn’t long before I found out.
I’m saying that a vast amount of energy is flying in from that end.
When I felt the energy and opened my eyes in surprise.
The Demon Sword Master was already moving.
She wields a sword.
Kwagagagagagak-!
Something flew and hit the sword of the Demon Sword Master, who was engulfed in strong energy.
It’s a huge backlash.
Just being close to the tingling brainwaves made my cheeks cut and blood started flowing.
After a brief confrontation with Gi-ui, Magum-hu struck back.
He straightened the sword he was holding and cut off the energy.
Crunch-!
The energy that split in two at the tip of the sword shook briefly and then burst out in that place.
Paaaaak-!
Another gust of wind.
This time it was a bit more difficult because my brain was mixed up.
“Ugh… .”
After barely holding on, I looked around and saw that the area was already in chaos.
The corpses strewn everywhere were in disarray, blown about by the wind pressure.
The puddle of blood that had filled the floor had scattered and was in a terrible state.
‘What just happened?’
While I was in a state of shock for a moment, I couldn’t speak.
Crunch.
Someone is coming this way.
Of course, it was the Demon Sword Master.
The rough wind had blown away her armor, leaving only a small mark.
As the Demon Sword Master approaches.
“Ugh…!?”
Suddenly my body began to float up.
It’s a hollow object.
Advertisements
The Demon Sword Master used the empty water on me.
The pressure that made my body float was no joke, but I could release it if I wanted to.
But I endured it for now.
Because I knew that if I continued to resist like this, the sword would fly at me immediately.
“… What are you…?”
After saying that, the Demon Sword Master came closer and sniffed as if trying to smell something.
“…Why…I can’t…smell…anything…?”
What kind of smell are you talking about?
She comes up to me floating around and continues to sniff me.
What is this…?
‘This is…’
Suddenly, I had the illusion that I had often had this happen in the past.
Even in this life, isn’t it true that Namgungbia was like this?
‘What the hell kind of hobby is this?’
I don’t even know what this is doing, it’s not a dog.
Especially since we are probably under attack right now.
Do you have time to do this?
The Demon Sword Master, who had been sniffing continuously, looked at me for a moment and then asked me something.
“…where?”
“what…?”
I was surprised when I blurted out informal speech without realizing it.
This is what makes habits scary.
Fortunately, the Demon Sword Master doesn’t seem to care much about this.
She just asks me questions as if she doesn’t care about that kind of thing.
“… Affiliation… Answer… .”
“…!”
I swallowed dry saliva at the words of the Demon Sword Master.
I never thought you’d ask me this.
It seems that the Demon Sword Master saw me as a demon belonging to the Demonic Cult.
‘You didn’t notice…?’
It seems like you don’t know who I am.
Should I consider this a blessing?
As he was thinking about it, Magumhu tilted his head for a moment and then grabbed his sword.
crazy.
This guy, I plan on killing him.
Advertisements
It seemed like he was really planning to kill me, even though he hesitated for a moment.
I blurted out the words as soon as I saw that.
“Heuk… It’s a salt field…!”
I spat out a name that I never wanted to spit out even if I died.
Fuck… I never thought the day would come when I would spit this out of my mouth.
Whether it was because he spat out blood with a heavy heart, the eyes of the Demon Sword Master who heard that widened slightly and the sword he was moving stopped.
Black Flame Corps.
This is the name of the unit I spat out.
It is known that there were originally three main units of the Cheonmasingyo sect.
The Cheonra Black Watchtower led by Pilduma.
The Ghost Sword Corps led by the Demon Sword.
The Green Knights led by the Green King.
These three units are known to be burning the entire Central Plains in the name of Cheonma.
That’s not wrong.
Those are the three officially known units.
However, they are not from the Central Plains.
Most of the demons belonging to the Demonic Cult knew about it.
That means there are a total of four units in the Demonic Cult.
A unit that oversees the three units just mentioned, and a unit directly subordinate to Cheonma that moves only on Cheonma’s orders.
Black Flame Corps.
The unit that the Demon Sword Master in front of me belonged to was right there.
and.
‘…where I am the main character.’
I was the leader of that unit with that fucking name.
What the fuck.
After hearing my words, Magumhu frowns for the first time in a while.
“… Lies… I didn’t hear… that a new person… was coming…”
As expected, it seems he doesn’t believe me.
One, there was nothing I could do about not believing it.
Because I had a way.
“… I… I only follow the words of the cult leader. There is not an inch of falsehood.”
“…”
After hearing the words, Magumhu looks into my eyes.
He stared at her eyes, which were dyed purple.
Thump.

“Ugh.”
Only then did I release my body that had been suspended in the air.
First of all, it was a sign of trust.
‘…after.’
I let out a sigh of relief. I guess I had no choice but to believe it anyway.
Mine bets his life on not telling a lie.
To bet your life on a lie is no different than trying to burst the magic energy bound to your heart.
But since I said it on the line and saw it alive, you’ll have no choice but to believe it right now.
Since I have already lost my connection with the Heavenly Demon’s magic, it doesn’t matter what I do with the Heavenly Demon.
She doesn’t know this.
After throwing me away, the Demon Sword Master immediately tried to put his sword back into its scabbard.
At that moment, crunch-! The sword shattered and broke in half.
“…”
It seems that the attack just before wasn’t properly absorbed.
The Demon Sword Master looked at my sword and then quickly threw it away.
There seemed to be no foolishness at all.
‘Where do you keep your brain?’
I look around the Mageomhu’s waist, but I don’t see anything that looks like a brain.
It looks like you didn’t bring it.
Leaving me to look around with my eyes, the Demon Sword Master turns his back.
“…Follow me.”
“yes?”
I found myself asking back at her words without realizing it.
Follow me…? Where?
Magumhu turned his head and glanced at me, then added a little more explanation.
“… Heavenly Lord… He has come.”
“…!”
“… I have to… go back… . Order.”
After hearing the words of the Demon Sword Master, I realized what the previous thought was.
It seems that it was an attack by none other than Cheonjon, one of the three Lords.
That guy is here?
So you’re saying this isn’t really the time to be doing this?
It seemed like the Demon Sword Master thought I was an ally and was planning to take me with him first.
however….
‘where…?’
Advertisements
Even in complex situations, such thoughts crossed my mind.
It’s fortunate that I didn’t die at the hands of the Demon Sword, but if I go with her like this, where will I end up?
That was the question.
“Your Majesty… Your Highness.”
At my call, the Demon Sword Master stops walking and looks this way.
The blue eyes, which still showed no signs of life, looked awkward.
This is proof that I am familiar with the current Namgungbia.
Her eyes don’t look at me like that.
Looking into those awkward eyes, I asked calmly.
“…Where are we going?”
“…”
There was a brief silence after hearing the question.
The expression on the Demon Sword’s face was as if he was asking why.
“…Daejeon (Great Hall)… .”
“…”
After finishing speaking, Magumhu started walking again.
I had to break into a cold sweat after hearing what I just heard.
The war she was talking about.
It was like the headquarters of the Black Flame Corps, and there.
‘…I’m here.’
This is where the Black Flame Demon Emperor, the leader of the main force, resides.
Thinking about it, I realized.
… things were just getting more and more fucked up.
