< The Return of the God of War Side Story Episode 93 >
What is it? What was it?
What exactly was happening right before your eyes?
In Cheonjigyo, in terms of individual power, excluding the religious leader, the next person is million-ryang. The reason he has not had a single failure even though he has performed numerous missions in the midfield until now is precisely because of the power he possesses.
This was possible because it was one of the major classes created by King Daebop a thousand years ago by reinterpreting the three thousand martial arts he had seen.
But what on earth is this?
It wasn’t even able to land a proper blow and was split in half.
Isn’t this a situation where the word “vain” is just appropriate?
“This… doesn’t make sense… it can’t happen!”
I shook my head, strongly denying reality.
It was Baek Man-ryang who I trusted more than anyone else with his military power.
Even if I couldn’t win, I was hoping that he would inflict at least a fatal wound, but even that disappeared in vain, so I couldn’t continue talking.
All he could do was stare blankly at the man who was still cutting down the cultists.
“Teacher… Master… please leave for now.”
“Avoid the place? This is me! “You need to leave?!”
Yuk Cheol-wan glared at Hwang Do-jin in anger.
According to the will of Heaven, he obtained the power of the Great Dharma King, established the Church of Heaven and Earth, and was now on the verge of swallowing up the Four Sects, which could be said to be the last step in unifying the Central Plains.
That kind of person… should be avoided?
The corner of Hwang Do-jin’s mouth trembled at his absurd words.
Is there any other shame like this?
“That man’s strength is extraordinary….”
Just as Hwang Do-jin said.
Even during this brief pause, more than a hundred corpses piled up again. The man’s swordsmanship, which seemed to say he would never stop, was pressuring his opponent in an even more threatening manner.
And moment.
The man’s sword swung again.
After lightly cutting down several enemies in front of him, the extended sword wind flew towards Yukcheolwan without even losing its strength.
Sigh-!
“Huh?!”
And it disappeared, hurting Yuk Cheol-wan’s cheek exactly. If there had been a little more force, the head, not the ball, would have gone flying off.
“Cult leader! Come to your senses!”
“Yeah… right…!”
Yuk Cheol-wan came to his senses and took a deep breath when he heard Hwang Do-jin’s words. I could tell that this situation was not good because I had already seen it with my own eyes, and I even felt like there was nothing I could do about it even if I stepped forward.
The strength of the opponent is truly overwhelming.
“We must retreat…!”
Hwang Do-jin is right.
We must not lose any more believers.
Shouldn’t we be able to rebuild later if we save as many people as possible? Yuk Cheol-wan did not like this fact, but he seemed to recognize that it could not be helped.
‘Where on earth did it come from…!’
Yuk Cheol-wan, who turned his back, gritted his teeth.
* * *
Sigh!
Killing the enemy in front of you is simple.
Swinging a knife and cutting flesh.
After cutting one, then two, then three, in the end, Dan Woo-hyeon was the only one standing until the end. Although it was already a thousand years ago, it was something that never changed, then or now.
“Ugh… Huh?!”
There is already fear in the enemy’s eyes.
This is the easiest time to kill someone.
Because those who are terrified can never do anything but just accept the blade. So all Dan Woo-hyeon does is show even greater fear and power by tearing his opponent to pieces with overwhelming fear.
That is the power of Dan Woo-hyeon, who was fine even after cutting down tens of thousands of people in the past.
“Do… run away!”
“I can’t win… I can’t win…!”
Those who lost their will to fight began to run away.
The sight of them running away as if the tide is falling is almost laughable.
Running like that doesn’t mean you can survive.
Dan Woo-hyeon narrowed his eyes and raised his sword.
Although it was a brief moment, the gathered power was strongly concentrated on the blade. As soon as he swung the sword, the power released from the sword spread far in all directions.
Kwa-kwa-kwang-!
“Kwaaaak!”
“Oops!”
The ground cracked, broke apart, and flew up.
A gust of wind blew the dead away, causing a ridiculous skit of them rolling around on the floor mixed with those who wanted to live.
What is happening now in the hands of Dan Woo-hyeon is a disaster.
It’s the kind of thing that can’t be done with human strength and all one can do is accept death. And Dan Woo-hyeon, who was creating the situation, seemed to be focused solely on cutting people down with a deep smile on his face.
It was as if Salseong, who had been sleeping, had opened his eyes.
Or, it was as if something that had been quiet since he opened his eyes had once again taken control of him as he experienced many things one by one.
Either way, it was a nightmare for Cheonji believers.
“Dan Confucius-!”
At that time, Namgung Sohye’s voice pierced my ears with a harsh tone.
Dan Woo-hyeon, who was about to swing his sword, stopped abruptly and slowly turned his head to look in the direction where the sound came from.
There, Namgung So-hye was looking at this nightmare-like scene, unable to contain her astonishment. But he soon calmed down, took a deep breath, and slowly approached.
“are you okay?”
The whole place is covered in blood.
Every time I take a step, it feels disgusting, like I’m stepping on people here and there. It was so miserable that I couldn’t even tell if what was rolling around was an arm, a leg, or an internal organ.
Every time that happened, she flinched and trembled, but her steps toward Dan Woo-hyeon did not stop and she walked even more vigorously.
“….”
“It’s okay… right?”
Namgung Sohye swallowed dry saliva and asked with difficulty.
My whole body is covered in blood.
From head to toe, there was no place that wasn’t covered in blood. If strangers had seen it, they would have thought that it had been hacked to pieces by someone.
But she knows.
None of the blood flowing in that body belongs to Dan Woo-hyeon.
And at that moment, Dan Woo-hyeon’s once murderous eyes began to slowly return, and the murderous spirit that was radiating around him was also quickly subsiding.
Dan Woo-hyeon took a deep breath and slowly opened his mouth.
“…Yeah, it’s okay.”
“Is this really okay?”
“Yeah, it’s okay.”
Dan Woo-hyeon smiled bitterly as he was asked again and again.
As I looked at the scenery before my eyes, I felt like I could understand why she asked so many times. Isn’t the area around him standing like an example of how to make a mountain out of corpses?
There were so many corpses scattered everywhere.
Perhaps among these, there will be people from the Church of Heaven and Earth, and there will also be people from the Emperor Wu. However, because it’s all mixed up, you won’t even be able to tell who is who.
“Ugh… I was so worried.”
“…Is that so?”
“Yes, wipe your face.”
Namgung Sohye took out a handkerchief from her bosom and handed it to her. It was a natural movement and her expression didn’t reveal anything special, but her trembling hands let me know that she was feeling afraid.
There is no way Dan Woo-hyeon wouldn’t realize that, too.
But I didn’t show it and just smiled.
He was soon handed a handkerchief and wiped his face.
Even so, I wonder how a lot of blood would go away, but it seemed like he was returning to Danwoohyeon due to such actions.
“What happened to him?”
“Oh, I already rescued the old man and put him in the guesthouse. “I can’t eat enough… It just feels like a sore throat.”
“I see…”
Dan Woo-hyeon answered briefly and smiled.
His appearance at the time of leaving Honam Danga was vividly pictured. I didn’t want to go, but I had to go, so I wanted to take Kwon Moo-jin with him, but I couldn’t even say a word because of Dan Woo-hyeon’s attention.
I sighed as I remembered that person.
“Thank you.”
“yes?!”
Dan Woo-hyeon, who suddenly expressed his gratitude, raised his left hand, which still didn’t have a lot of blood on it, and stroked Namgung So-hye’s head.
Namgung So-hye, who was startled by such a sudden situation, raised her eyes wide and had no idea what to do. Looking at her like that, Dan Woo-hyeon laughed again.
“It’s not over yet.”
“Ugh. “I think the cult leader ran away.”
“okay.”
Dan Woo-hyeon also knows.
Because I was already feeling those signs.
However, I had no intention of letting go.
This is because losing him is ultimately the same as giving him another excuse. Considering that the reason why so many people were killed was to completely cut off the relationship with the Church of Heaven and Earth, it was necessary to capture the leader who was the core of the religion.
The moment I turned my back with that thought in mind, I heard Namgung Sohye’s voice.
“let’s go together!”
“…okay.”
“to?”
Namgung So-hye looked at Dan Woo-hyeon again with a blank expression. I thought they would definitely not let him follow me, but they easily gave me permission.
I was so amazed at such a situation that I stared at his face.
“Why but?”
“No… I wonder if the sun will rise in the east tomorrow…?”
“The sun usually rises in the east.”
“…?!”
At that moment, Namgung Sohye’s face turned red.
While looking at Dan Woo-hyeon, I mumbled without even thinking about it, because I had no idea that it was wrong.
Since she had grown up being told that she was quite smart, she lowered her head in embarrassment, not knowing what to do.
“Is this a situation where we should consider ourselves fortunate that it doesn’t rise in the south?”
“Eh…yeah. “That’s right.”
At Dan Woo-hyeon’s words, Namgung So-hye said nothing more.
Either that or not.
Any other words don’t reach my ears anyway.
“Then let’s go.”
“Do you know where it is?”
“When people are in a hurry, they hide in the place they think is safest.”
“Ah-”
Namgung So-hye immediately understood Dan Woo-hyeon’s words.
The headquarters of Cheonjigyo is located where you can see the Imperial Castle. If you think about the place Geum Geum-ran showed you by unfolding the map, it is not that far away.
She turned her head and looked at the large mountain to the west. Although it feels different from the famous mountains in Shanxi, it is famous for being dense and rugged enough for people to hide in, right?
They’re probably working on a plan right now.
