Yellow Dragon Lord, Genius Swordsman
Episode 48
“Hmm?”
The mad horse, looking over the shoulder of the document dragon, made a strange snorting sound.
“What kind of guy are you? You managed to get here without being affected by my body’s aura. You must be quite skilled.”
“It won’t be much.”
The document dragon answered instead.
“You are finished now.”
“It’s over? Hahaha!”
It must have been really funny, because the madman burst into tears and went crazy.
“How many people do you think have threatened this body like that so far? Where do you think they are now? I’ll tell you the answer. There are countless of them, and without exception, they are buried underground!”
The scream of a madman resonates through the still night air.
He aimed at the new intruder with the bloody sword of the Blood Dragon Sword.
“Now you answer. Do you think you are any different from those guys?”
“Well, I don’t know.”
The answer was even more lackluster than I expected.
The mad horse’s eyebrows wiggled like a snake.
“You are such a bland bastard. What the hell kind of son of a bitch are you?”
“Single-shot.”
The uninvited guest, Dan Sa-hyeok, answered calmly.
“My name is Dan Sa-hyeok.”
“Single-shot hyuk? Single-shot hyuk?”
The pupils of the mad horse, who had been mumbling that name for a while, dilated on their own.
That was because he was the name that remained in the memory of Yeop Sa-pyeong, the owner of the body he inhabited.
“You’re that guy? The guy who brought the Blood Dragon Sword to the Geumwol Battlefield?”
“I never gave it to him. I just used it as collateral to borrow money.”
“That’s it! You traded a treasure worth a million gold coins for a mere five hundred nyang. Is there another fool like you in the world?”
“It is an expensive and valuable weapon, but a million gold is ridiculous. Furthermore, since the ownership has never been completely transferred, it is difficult to see it as being exchanged for five hundred nyang.”
“Hahaha! You’re still talking nonsense until the end!”
The eyes of the mad horse, who burst into laughter, gleamed like a deaf ear.
“I could tell just by swinging it around for a moment. This blood dragon sword is truly something that is hard to find a match for in the Central Plains. It is a weapon that is truly the best among the divine weapons in the world!”
“… … .”
“Wouldn’t it be a mistake to hand over something like that as collateral?”
“Not really.”
“What exactly? Something stupid.”
The madman, who had stopped laughing, looked at me with a cold face.
“You must be quite an expert. Judging from the fact that you were able to approach me without being detected, you must be someone who can be called a master.”
Dan Sa-hyeok doesn’t really say anything in response to Gwang-ma’s words.
The question of whether they didn’t know that he was the one who killed the Blood Demon lingered in the mouths of Document Dragon and Won Woojin.
‘Could it be that the mad horse doesn’t know that fact?’
‘I heard that he also knows what Yeop Sa-pyeong remembers.’
It may not have been intended to clear up their doubts, but at that moment, Gwangma continued speaking.
“I also know that you killed the Blood Heavenly Demon. Well, in the end, it’s one of two things. Either the Blood Heavenly Demon was not as good as you thought, or you lied.”
“… … .”
“Anyway, it is clear that this Blood Dragon Sword is a sword of peerless fame. What do you think it means that he personally handed over such a valuable item to me?”
Wedge!
Before Dan Sa-hyeok could even react, Gwang-ma swung his Blood Dragon Sword.
An invisible sword flew past Dan Sa-hyeok and left a long scar on the distant wall.
While a few strands of hair fluttered and fell, Dan Sa-hyeok just looked at the mad horse calmly.
“Are you brave or are you unable to react?”
“That’s quite a sharp attack. It could have been a hit.”
“Huh. I thought you finally opened your mouth, but is that all you can say? Well, it’s better to bluff than to run away.”
“Looking at you, it looks like you really looked after the Document Dragon a little while ago.”
“Documentary Dragon? Are you talking about that guy? Ha! You’re asking the obvious.”
The mad horse glanced at the document dragon as if it was nothing, then quickly straightened up the blood dragon sword.
Sssssss!
As the energy flowed out from the mad horse’s grasp, a bloody dragon pattern stood out on the blade of the Blood Dragon Sword.
“I finally got to eat a hundred people. Even with the magic of the Blood Demon Lord, it was too much to digest in one go, so I had to control my strength. Well, I was sad that it was over so I wanted to play with it a little longer.”
“Huh!”
A document dragon that literally grinds its teeth at the words of a mad horse.
On the other hand, Dan Sa-hyeok’s attitude was still calm.
“That’s fortunate.”
“what?”
“I’m glad that’s not your strength,” he said.
“……what?”
A madman who spits out the same words with a completely different feeling than before.
At that time, Won Woo-jin and Moon-ryong came into his sight.
But something was strange.
Both of them looked equally nervous, but unlike Won Woo-jin, who was on the verge of despair, Document Ryong was strangely calm.
‘What the hell? That volcano thing has become noticeably calmer since the maggot showed up.’
That fact was very unpleasant for Gwangma.
There is only one way to relieve that discomfort.
“All I can do is kill them.”
The madman grinned, revealing his fangs.
“It looks like I’ll kill one more than I expected, but what’s the big deal? A hundred or eight or a hundred and nine are the same, so I’ll just kill them, tear them apart, and savor their blood.”
“If you can do that.”
“… … You said it was Dan Sa-hyeok? I’ll tell you clearly.”
The mad horse opened his eyes wide.
“I will rip out your heart, still beating, and burst it in front of you.”
“If you can do that.”
“… … You!”
The mad horse, repeatedly provoked by trivial words, took the initiative.
Papat!
A situation where I was unknowingly caught up in Dan Sa-hyeok’s words and became extremely excited.
Nevertheless, the movements of the mad horse entering the battle were extremely calm and efficient.
‘Weaknesses first!’
The basics and truth of all battles.
It is still unknown what Dan Sa-hyeok’s weaknesses are, but there are some common elements.
Based on that judgment, the first move chosen by the mad horse was to stab at the shortest distance.
The target was Won Woo-jin’s Adam’s apple.
‘Yes, this is the answer!’
Dan Sa-hyeok is not an ordinary person, so he will focus on self-defense for now.
It was not wise to aim for such an opponent all at once, as it was like hitting a rock with bare hands.
On the other hand, what if you target others in this way?
First of all, since you are not directly attacking Dan Sa-hyeok, there is no need to worry about being counterattacked, and since you are attacking his weak point, you can expose his weak point.
Plus, you can get additional blood sucking by defeating even the weakest ones.
If we did well, we could even kill two birds with one stone by taking down that guy called Document Dragon.
‘however……!’
Kaang!
When the pitch-black flames burst out before his eyes, the madman realized that all his calculations up to that point had been completely wrong.
Contrary to his pride in having caught Dan Sa-hyeok off guard, Dan Sa-hyeok’s reaction was so quick.
furthermore…….
“That sword!”
A shriek of horror tore through Madman’s throat.
“What on earth is that black thing!”
Sssssss.
A pitch-black flame was burning.
A strange flame that was darker than the darkness of the night, yet stood in sharp contrast to the surrounding darkness.
It was glowing over the broken blade, leaving only the roots behind.
“Heuksura.”
Dan Sa-hyeok answered softly.
“It’s my first time seeing you, so I guess it’s not you.”
“……what?”
“By the way, for someone called a mad horse, his attack methods are so calculated. I’m a bit disappointed.”
A word that cuts into the chest more sharply than any other word: disappointment.
For the mad horse who had gained notoriety by moving from one person to another, these were words he could not just ignore.
“Get out!”
The mad horse that had detonated its aftershocks shot a new type like lightning.
People like Won Woo-jin and Moon Jae-in were no longer in my sights.
I just wanted to carve out Dan Sa-hyeok’s heart and make it explode in front of his eyes.
“Kaaaah!”
A slash that cuts through the air with a bestial roar.
A bloody island fell down on Dan Sa-hyeok’s head.
But the next moment.
A pitch-black whirlwind emerged from the tip of Dan Sa-hyeok’s right hand and struck the rising mad horse head-on.
“Haha!”
An island that bounces off like a lie.
Kwangma opened his eyes wide at the sensation of his wrists becoming tingly.
‘Are you saying that a broken sword is more powerful than the Blood Dragon Sword? If not, then what about this bastard’s power…?’
A fact that cannot be accepted either way.
The mad demon that had been gnashing his teeth until he bled pulled up all the energy of the fanatic blood demon that he had been saving.
“Kuaaaah!”
“… … .”
Two people, wrapped in steel, collided like a storm.
A turbulent current of strong energy swirled around the two who were striking madly.
Even if I were to be brushed by even the slightest breeze, my whole body would be torn to pieces.
For Document Dragon and Won Woojin, there was no other way but to run away in a hurry.
“Death penalty!”
“I want to say let’s run away now, but I think it would be safest to stay here for now.”
Document Dragon spoke calmly to Won Woo Jin, who had turned pale.
“I can be sure of this because I’ve dealt with both of them. Besides… … if my guess is correct, the mad horse is just a small part of it.”
“Huh? Just a small part?”
Instead of answering Won Woojin’s question, Document Dragon looked at the two people engaged in a fierce battle.
“Priest Won, if you want to become even a little stronger… … don’t take your eyes off that battle.”
“… … Yes, death penalty.”
Won Woo-jin was following the words of the document dragon obediently.
Meanwhile, the battle between the two was reaching its peak in an instant.
Pa-pa …
Kookookookookook!
Blood-red lightning flashed around the two new types, and a pitch-black storm raged at the center of the clash.
Every time the sword and the sword clashed, blood spurted out and flew into the air, but soon turned into fog and dispersed.
This means that only one side is taking the hit.
The eyes of the madman, who knew that fact better than anyone else, became bloodshot.
‘This, this is nonsense!’
The name given to him by the world because he murdered numerous people in a brutal and shocking manner, ‘Gwangma’.
Although it literally meant a crazy man, it was given to him only to express disgust and fear for his actions.
In short, the essence is that it is not crazy at all.
Although it is said that personality fluctuates, this is because there are multiple selves, and each personality is rather rational.
The personality of the mad horse, which can be called its essence, is also cruel and inhumane, but its temperament is cold and calculating.
If it hadn’t been like that in the first place, it would have been impossible to carry out the plan to move from one body to another and live forever.
It was the first time that such a man felt fear.
He was astonished by an unprecedented existence that went beyond his calculations and expectations.
“What, what is it? What on earth are you?”
Crunch!
The moment when the mad horse’s left arm was cut off and a desperate cry was let out, was almost the same.
In the midst of the shaking mad horse’s eyes, Dan Sa-hyeok’s face was still calm.
“I am Dan Sa-hyeok. I am the Lord of the Yellow Dragon Castle.”
