Heavenly Demon Cultivation Simulation

Chapter 148: Three Arrangements Planned By Seol-Hwi (2)

Kwaang!

An explosion occurred.

Rather, it was a chain of explosions which happened 25 times.

Anything close to it melted, burned, or exploded.

As if it were nothing but ash, the debris was lifted up into the air.

“…!”

“…!”

The force it held was enormous.

The captain of the enemy troops, the members, and even the controlled Kangshi stopped moving.

“What is…”

Ma Taryong also saw the explosion happen and was rendered completely speechless.

He was a warrior of the Peak Demon level. Explosive attacks were not things he had seen just once or twice. However, he had never seen one to this extent where it resonated and affected such a huge area.

Even though he was quite far away from the site of the explosion, the sound was strong enough to make him go deaf.

“…?”

So he was late to realize.

Wolsa, who had been fighting with him until just a minute ago, was nowhere to be seen.

Sasak!

Ma Taryong hastily took up a defensive stance and was wary of any potential attacks, but his actions were all meaningless.

Because his opponent he was wary of wasn’t here.

“What…”

It seemed Wolsa had left him behind and moved to another place.

Saaaa!

Seol-Hwi’s head was spinning rapidly in the fierce wind.

The combat method had already been changed to Simulation.

<Analyze Seol-Hwi’s martial arts.>

…

<Analysis complete.>

Wait a minute for the question to come.

After taking a few breaths, the one with tremendous power posed a question.

<Which Simulation would you like?>

Why did he not use it until now?

Why did he have to wait until this moment to use it?

The reason was obvious.

In his experience Simulations have produced very incomplete results for predicting the future.

Sometimes it ended up saying things couldn’t be determined.

But when it came to things in the past and how to deal with the present situation, it was a completely different story.

A surprisingly optimal number. It gave him great results.

So Seol-Hwi waited until the very end.

Until the moment when the situation had hit rock bottom, or until he got a chance to try and cause a great turnabout.

So, he waited.

He waited for a situation such as the one currently unfolding.

This was the second arrangement that Seol-Hwi had prepared.

“Tell me their biggest weakness.”

<Analyzing…>

Seol-Hwi’s predictions were right. The Simulation didn’t take long to provide him with their weaknesses.

<Found it.>

At that moment, in the place of darkness and dust, his vision turned clear.

?Intimidate Yeorin, the Captain of the Ghastly Troops. - Her official name is Gwol Jang. As one of the three captains of the Ghastly Troops, if you intimidate her, all the Fangshi will have no choice but to stop. - Based on her skills, she ranks in the top three of the troops. Kill her, and the enemies will collapse on their own. - However, if that happens, the forces of the Demon Lord will come for you. Keep this in mind.

Pat!

Seol-Hwi who saw the result, moved right away

A genius chance. If he captured her now, the entire war could change.

Uh?

Seol-Hwi suddenly felt a cold energy behind him.

However, it was too late to look back.

It was also because of his senses which had been disturbed, but because of the opponent’s technique being great, he couldn’t respond.

So, he utilized the method he thought to be the most optimal in this situation.

<Thrift Wind Sword is being used.>

A special technique which unfolds with the simple movement of lowering the sword. As soon as he used it, this super sword slashed around his waist perfectly.

Puak!

In an instant, Seol-Hwi’s body turned transparent and blinked.

“…!”

Wolsa, who had been aiming to use a fatal attack, was puzzled. As soon as he witnessed the chained explosions caused by Seol-Hwi, he left Ma Taryong behind.

Originally, the mission was to escort an important figure of the Ghastly Troops, Yeorin.

The captain headed to Yeorin as expected, and Wolsa, who foresaw the situation, moved right away.

Pit!

But suddenly the opponent’s body had turned transparent.

To be precise, it was repeating the process of becoming transparent and returning to its original state.

As a result, Supreme Sword Energy penetrated the body yet did no damage.

And it wasn’t just that.

Wheik!

When it was created, a sudden storm hit his body.

Due to the energy, his body soared high up in the air.

“Ack!”

“What!”

It goes without saying, however, that Wolsa wasn’t the only one in the sphere where Thrift Wind Sword was used.

It devoured the bodies of the Ghastly Troops who were watching from afar, and from a distance, they all blew up.

<Supreme Low Temperature Ice is being used.>

Seol-Hwi realized that Wolsa intervened and immediately activated it, slowing down time.

“…Hm!”

But again the illusions occurred, and the effect on Seol-Hwi continued.

Obviously, there was only one person at first, and when he looked closely, he now saw more than 10. A significant number of them were looking at him all in different forms.

Huh.

But Seol-Hwi knew which was the real one immediately.

Thrift Wind Sword wasn’t something which could be escaped by anyone. The person who soared in the air fell slowly, so he had to be Wolsa.

<Sura Exploding Flame Arts is being used.>

Seol-Hwi let out a groan and swung his sword.

“Euk!”

Is it because he used too many skills in a row?

The duration was shortened, and the time slow was released when Sura Exploding Flame Arts was used.

Kwakwang!

But fortunately, he was able to hit the opponent with a blow.

Although it didn’t hit him head on, it had enough impact.

Wolsa, who fell, groaned in pain with one arm drooping to the side, and in the meantime, Seol-Hwi was able to reach the side of Yeorin.

“Ah.”

A short groan followed from the woman.

In the first place, the Ghastly Troops are a bit helpless as they are not trained in martial arts.

Until the sword came for her neck, she could not have even seen it.

“Cancel the spells,”

Seol-Hwi spoke in a cold voice.

The sword which had seen a lot of blood stopped right in front of her neck.

“That…”

“Hurry!”

When the woman hesitated, Seol-Hwi shouted.

This wasn’t a shout to intimidate her, but a warning to the people under her too.

Shh

As the sword brushed past, thin lines of blood flowed from her white neck.

“T-that!”

“Captain!”

The atmosphere changed right then.

“Release it!”

“…”

Seol-Hwi did order them, but it was when Yeorin went stiff and blue.

“The captain has been caught! Everyone, release the spell!”

Instead of her, another man, someone under her shouted at the members.

Swish!

The atmosphere changed in an instant.

Everyone was tense. At first, only the energy of the subordinates could be felt, but this time everyone felt it.

Shh

“Uh? I can move.”

“Same here.”

As their bodies which had gone stiff felt like they had been released, the faces of his subordinates turned red as the flow of energy.

Yong Jin asked as he moved his body,

“How did things end up like this?”

“The captain captured the enemy captain,” Yorim said.

“What? really?”

After that, the members looked around.

Indeed, they could see their captain holding his sword at the enemy’s neck.

“Then what happens now?”

Silence ensued at the question of someone as the answer was expected.

“We get rid of the captain of their side and we win. But if we do…”

Yorim blurted out the end of his speech and Seo Ryeong added.

“Is that really the end?”

Everyone went silent. The were still in the middle of a battle

Enemy troops were around. Also, they weren’t sure if taking the Ghastly Troops out would be fine with the Earth Demon

An all out fight between the two disciples would be too much.

“…I have lost.”

After a few seconds, Yeorin admitted.

The blade was near her throat, but never did she think that this man would be able to overcome the spells she used.

“So reckless. Do you know what it means to point your sword at us?”

The provocative words.

It was a warning that there would be no benefit from this situation.

Seol-Hwi asked coldly,

“Do you have no shame at all?”

“…Uh?”

“It makes me wonder how you can be this shameless after looking down on your opponent along with being the aggressors.”

At those words the woman’s brow furrowed, though Seol-Hwi couldn’t see her face.

“Then isn’t it shameful that you intimidate me like this? Just kill me. Threatening me like this…”

“Such sophistication.”

Seol-Hwi interrupted her words.

“You are the ones who started this fight in the first place. It was you who threatened us if I didn’t hand over my subordinate, and you were the ones who said that you might kill us if we didn’t listen.”

Kwak

After another three minutes passed, Seol-Hwi clenched his hand.

“So you risked your life for it, and now you are scared? I will ask once again.”

“…”

“Aren’t you all the ones who should be hanging your heads in shame? Do you even understand the meaning of shame? If it were me, I wouldn’t even be able to raise my face in a situation like this, but you still want to threaten me? You fucking ignorant bastards.”

“…!”

The woman’s expression contorted.

However she smiled and said,

“Truly ignorant. But that ends now.”

And the moment she said so.

Tuk. Tuk.

All eight.

Seven feet tall.

They were seven feet tall.

Seeing them, Seol-Hwi’s members shouted,

“Eight Iron Demon Kings.”

“This is insane!”

“Why this all of a sudden?”

It was unbelievable.

The Eight Iron Demon Kings were warriors who had reached the Peak Demon level and were among the men of the Demon Lord. Each of them was equal or higher level than Ma Taryong.

“Hah… what the hell is this?”

And the one who showed up late. Among them was the First Demon King who complained.

Originally they should have moved with the Ghastly Troops.

However, they went for a scouting run and then came here. By the time they got here, Yeorin was being held captive by a small group of people who looked like there was nothing special to them.

“It really is over.”

Yorim’s expression contorted.

Now they thought they were gone for sure with these people here.

They are known as incarnations of battle under the command of the Demon Lord

Ma Taryong, who was watching from the side, also had a serious expression on his face.

Seol-Hwi what do we do now?

Seol-Hwi continued to think about it over and over again.

Even after being cursed he did everything to remove all the Soulless.

It was a sight he would never have believed if not seen in person.

In addition, after receiving a surprise attack from Wolsa, he managed to avoid it and corner the captain, and that was the one way he hoped to claim victory.

But that was all.

The fact that these people were here now meant that the tables can’t be turned anymore.

“Do you know why I said you were arrogant?”

Meanwhile, Yeorin continued to talk.

Chak

She grabbed the blade that was pointed at her throat with her hand and slowly pushed it away.

At a distance where her breath could reach him, she said,

“You cannot survive here anyway. By any means.”

She looked at Seol-Hwi to see his pride and his upright attitude be replaced with despair.

However.

Why…

His face hadn’t changed in the slightest even though he had to have seen the Eight Iron Demon Kings.

“I know them. Did you think I wouldn’t know that they would be coming?”

“Y-you are going to continue like this until the end. Do you really think you can survive from this point on?”

“You know, we can make it all the way until the end.”

Seol-Hwi pulled his sword back and walked to them.

“Captain!”

“Why!”

His subordinates and even Ma Taryong didn’t understand Seol-Hwi’s actions.

“What? You want to fight?”

“I think it will be over if we kill him.”

A few whispers and exchange of glances.

One of the Eight Kings said,

“I will do it.”

The Demon King picked up his blade and used a technique to kill Seol-Hwi at once.

Saaaa!

The Demon King appeared in front of Seol-Hwi with a flash.

Despite his enormous size, he held a speed which couldn’t be seen with the naked eye. When the fierce blade approached the head of Seol-Hwi, they all thought it was a simple fact that he would die.

And that is when the blade fell.

Chang!

However, there was someone holding the blade with bare hands.

“Huk?”

The Demon King looked embarrassed.

It was an attack that had enough force to even cut through the ground.

Yet this person was enduring it so easily.

“Bloody Death Squad, captain?”

It was none other than the Blood Rain Sword God.

“There you are. I was wondering where you all went…”

Yupae raised his back which bent down for a moment and spoke to Seol-Hwi.

“It was you.”

“It’s been a while, Sir Yupae,” Seol-Hwi said.

Why did Songhwa use fireflies?

It was because it had been said in the past that Kangshi and Soulless are called with fireflies.

Blood Rain Sword God, Yupae.

His presence was Seol-Hwi’s third arrangement.

It was the last arrangement to take responsibility for the survival of his subordinates along with himself.
