773 Episode 34 Sibling (4)

The condition for activating [Time of Judgment] of the Ten Demon Judges is simple.

The important thing here is that not all 'constellations within the same channel' need to agree.

Unlike the 'Judge of Evil's' [Time of Judgment], which does not activate even if only one of the 'Absolute Good' constellations opposes it, the [Time of Judgment] of the 'Judge of Destruction' can be activated even if only one constellation agrees.

In other words, [Time of Judgment] can be activated even if there is only one constellation that agrees within the channel.

As expected, there was opposition from the beggars. But there is no use in opposing it.

I agreed, so what are you going to do?

It felt good to see the astonished constellations, but in fact, it was not a very favorable situation for us.

The judge judges the object on behalf of the will of the constellations, and the constellations pay an appropriate probability.

The problem was the probability.

Since 'Judgment of Ten Demons' is easy to activate [Time of Judgment], its effect greatly depends on the level or number of people who agree to activate the skill.

In short, right now, Jung Heewon could only borrow the probability of the 'Demon King of Salvation (acting agent)'.

Tsk tsk, tsk tsk.

Surely the skill won't end before she even fights properly?

A high-level demon holding the 'Wolgeuk'—the 'Spear Master' muttered while holding Jung Heewon’s collar.

I spoke to that guy using Jung Heewon’s words.

"The level of the Gourmet Association has fallen a lot. They even accept lowly great-grades like you as 'Gourmet Association' members."

Looking at his expression, it seemed like I had really touched the point.

I guess so. In fact, these guys are probably not mainstream 'Gourmet Association' members, but rather subcontractors.

For example, this means that these are the people who supply items such as the 'Heart of a 10th Circle Grand Mage' or 'The Right Arm of a Poor Sword Master' that are being eaten up by the Gourmet Association.

"Are you ignoring the Demon King of Salvation?"

Without hesitation, I put my strength on my back foot. As expected from a born swordsman, her muscle movements were extraordinary.

The 'Spear Master' gave an order as if he was annoyed by the rapidly narrowing distance.

Two high-level demons who had been loitering in the back stepped forward as if they had been waiting.

One guy seems to have a subspace pouch and appears to be a typical assassin.

And the other one was wearing battle gauntlets, so it was a martial arts style.

It was the assassin who moved first. The guy with his cheeks puffed out like a frog spewed green poisonous smoke, creating a swamp around him.

Filth addict.

Was this guy there too?

This constellation was originally one of the guys who followed Yoo Jonghyuk like a stalker in the middle rounds of 'Ways of Survival'.

His battle logic is to restrict the opponent's movement by laying down a contaminated area and then shoot the enemy with an extremely poisonous needle to subdue the enemy.

This guy, who likes to hunt prey with minimal injury, had an eccentric hobby of squeezing out freshly caught prey and eating its contents.

Coincidentally, in 'Ways of Survival', there is a scene where Yoo Jonghyuk subdues that guy.

To explain it in Yoo Jonghyuk style, the method is as follows.

Yoo Jonghyuk's 'combat textbook' is difficult for Cheon Inho to follow.

But what about 'Jung Heewon'?

The moment I jumped into the air to avoid the contaminated area, it shot something out of its mouth again.

An 'extremely poisonous needle' that cuts off half of your combat ability for 10 minutes with just one hit. It was a key skill that allowed the 'filth addict' with low combat power to maintain his position as a constellation.

Of course, it doesn't work for me.

The moment the frightened filth addict widened his eyes, I spun around in the air, accelerated, and swung my sword at him.

The one who blocked the sword was a martial arts-style high-level demon who narrowly came forward.

Like the 'Spear Master', he was a constellation from the <First Murim>.

Seeing that he is still living as a subcontractor for the 'Gourmet Association', his habits as a human do not change even if he became a Constellation.

Of course, it wasn't [Hundred Steps Godly Fists]. The real Hundred Steps Godly Fists is not that shabby.

If Breaking the Sky Sword Saint were here, there'll be a sound that would make one's head fly off at once.

But there was no Breaking the Sky Sword Saint here, and it was only Jung Heewon and I who had to deal with him.

In the face of the explosion of power that took over the place in an instant, I frantically took a step back.

Fast.

No matter how constrained the opponent was by the scenario constraints, a constellation was a constellation, and at one time, he was a strong man who was listed as one of the 20 strongest members of <The First Murim>.

But it's worth a try.

A trajectory that Cheon Inho could not follow was visible.

Being visible means that there is an opportunity to counterattack as long as the body's abilities are supported.

Gooooooo!

Jung Heewon's [Kendo], which has already surpassed the level

of transcendence, is filled with the power of swords. A talent who self-taught her sword skills alone and would have undoubtedly competed for the place of the best in the world if she were in the <First Murim>.

The moment the lost guard Kwongak took his breath, Jung Heewon and I were already right in front of him.

The sharp sword energy drew a brilliant trajectory to the guy's fist.

What I can do is utilize all of Jung Heewon's potential while [Time of Judgment] lasts.

Red natural flowers flickered at the corners of my eyes, and explosive power welled up.

I held 'Mikazuki Munechika' with both hands and swung it again and again.

From top to bottom and from left to right again.

"You—!"

The wrist of the unguarded Kwongak Taoist flew into the air.

I didn't miss the opportunity and attacked his arms.

The sound of flesh being torn apart.

The panicked Taoist swordsman held onto Munechika Mikazuki's blade with one hand and unleashed a barrage of punches with the other hand.

There was no place to escape unless I let go of the sword. A blow that would explode one's body with just one hit.

Still, I didn't let go of the sword. I believed in Jung Heewon’s history.

Her indomitable trait that made her enter the '100 Strongest People' of the Ways of Survival came into play.

Kuddddddd!

Jung Heewon’s body was not broken even by the pouring power. The aura surrounding her entire body burned even more fiercely.

The moment the 'Gwongak Taoist' screamed, Jung Heewon's sword moved once again. In addition, it is a sword strike imbued with the ability of [Time of Judgment].

On top of that, there is the time that Jung Heewon has accumulated so far.

I was able to find out what Jung Heewon was thinking of when practicing swordsmanship.

It was the most beautiful swordsmanship I had ever seen.

Jung Heewon swung her sword again and again to catch up with him.

Each and every sword swung like that came together and finally came together at Jung Heewon's fingertips.

A level that an ordinary human being can never reach. A wall that even martial arts masters cannot overcome even after training for hundreds of years.

The wall was crumbling in the face of overwhelming talent.

A sword made to break the sword of the King.

Her kendo blossomed into a brilliant beam of light, splitting the incarnation body of the 'Wingak Taoist' in half.

It was impossible.

Even though this is the twentieth scenario, it is a feat in which an incarnation with no sponsor defeats an incarnation possessed by a great-grade constellation.

There was no time to get drunk on the joy of victory. Jung Heewon’s body was rapidly becoming heavier.

Without stopping, I swung my sword at the 'filth addict' next to me.

There are two demons remaining. Before I couldn’t move her body at all, I had to kill all the remaining guys.

However, the 'filth addict', who foresaw his colleague's defeat, was already running away.

Eventually, there was only one demon left.

The spear master was glaring at me with cool eyes, as if he wasn't too shaken by my battle.

And the next moment, the spear master’s new form disappeared.

I swung my sword reflexively.

'Mikazuki Munechika' broke with a deep sibilant sound.

The powerful force emitted by the spear master destroyed Jung Heewon's sword and touched the blade of 'Mikazuki Munechika'.

A rapid spear attack followed.

Although it was frustrating, the 'spear master'’s skills were real.

Unlike the Kwongak master who sold out his sect to Seongun and became a 'constellation', this guy was truly a constellation who achieved great feats with his own skills.

In an instant, blood spurted out from the damaged body.

To make matters worse, [Time of Judgment] has also ended.

Terrible pain radiated from every bone in my body. All I could really do now was stand.

The spear master was smiling as if he had already secured victory.

"If it had been one more minute, you would have passed out."

This is it.

By reducing the three high-level demons to one, the goal was achieved.

The spear master's eyes scanned the entire body of Jung Heewon, whom I had possessed.

The expression of the spear master who had been speaking so far hardened.

The reason was clear.

A roar heard from afar. Something was running towards us like a tank, plowing through the forest road.

A pitch-black coat blowing in the wind.

If Han Sooyoung were here, she would definitely have said this.

I spoke to the high-ranking demon in a triumphant voice, like a fox riding on a tiger's back.

"It’s been a minute, kid."

The eyes of Yoo Jonghyuk, who came running out of breath, were looking in this direction.

It was clear what the guy saw to ran to us.

He must have read the phrase on the 'commercial signal flare' I fired earlier.

'Wolgeuk' is Yoo Jonghyuk’s decisive battle weapon for the 41st round.

From my perspective, it was a stroke of luck that the 'spear master' obtained the Wolgeuk.

"Yoo Jonghyuk! Here we are!"

I shouted with all my might in Jung Heewon’s voice.

"Here is the villain of the world who stole your spear—"

The 'Spear Master' is a monster that should never be dealt with under normal circumstances, but with Yoo Jonghyuk in the '41st round', it was an enemy worth fighting.

If the two of them calmly form a formation to stop them and kill them—

"Yoo Jonghyuk?"

But Yoo Jonghyuk was looking somewhere else without even looking in my direction.

If he had seen that expression on his face, he would definitely have said this.
