Chapter 364

#364. Because I can’t give up.

* * *

“…!”

As if wrapped around a candle.

Hasneti with both hands together.

Seeing the orb of light floating in the meantime, Rose hardened her face.

Of course, it was natural for the Red Dragon Princess to handle fire, and compared to all the flames she had dealt with so far, the light orb was so small that it looked weak.

Still, the reason Rose was nervous was because she could feel the enormous power contained within.

Rose didn’t know.

That the power that Hasneti drew now was the result of the Red Dragon Clan’s research on nuclear fusion.

But I instinctively understood.

No matter how small it may seem, it is unmistakably the sun.

And I felt it.

That the sun is only ‘preparation’, and the moment Hasneti launches a real attack, the fight will be final.

‘how…?’

One thing I can’t understand.

It was Hasneti’s state of handling that power.

Just as Yeomryongdae self-destructed due to the aftereffects of repeatedly helping Yonghwa, Hasneti must not have recovered his body yet.

I melted again in that state.

Hasneti should have reached his limits long ago.

The reason Rose was confident that she would be able to subdue her without killing her in the first place was with that in mind, and it

didn’t matter if she was cowardly.

She would do anything to give Limon victory.

However, it was not enough to compete with himself on an equal footing, and even deal with psionics at that level in a situation where even the resonance with the Yeomryongdae began to shake.

It was unexpected.

But there was no time to investigate the reason.

Because when that power is completed, the superiority until now will be overturned in an instant.

‘A halfway attack… won’t work.’

It was already too late to stop it.

If you rashly rush at Hasnetty, who created the artificial sun, you will only reveal your own gaps and be counterattacked.

There is only one way left.

Only face-to-face!

After making her decision, Rose gripped her sword tightly and pulled up the psionic.

pounding.

Whenever the heart beats, the psionics that circulate throughout the body condense and swell repeatedly, increasing rapidly.

more more more

Even the body, which had been melted by the flow of too powerful psionics, creaked and the heart became cramped.

But it doesn’t stop.

Because this is not enough.

to never be defeated.

Despite the excruciating pain that seemed to burst the blood vessels throughout her body, Rose compressed her psionic power with full force.

And Hasneti was also concentrating to the extreme.

“Whoa…”

Whoa, whoa, whoa.

Every time you breathe, a huge amount of psionics leak out, and the light orbs between your palms pulsate.

It’s definitely the power of the sun.

Indeed, its brilliance feels unstable and precarious, like a candle that will be extinguished with just the wind.

It was unavoidable.

It is a feat that was only possible because she realized the artificial sun that could only be created by taking a long time in the original facility with only psionics.

Just by maintaining and controlling this nuclear fusion, Hasneti is already close to its limit.

Nevertheless, she continued to inject psionics to increase the brilliance of the artificial sun.

obsession with winning.

A warmth rising from your chest.

Above all, the mind that has been built up for ten years.

It gave Hasneti the strength to focus her psionic power even in the burning heat of her body.

Deed deed deed deed!

Woo woo woo woo!

Is it because too much power is concentrated?

Space twists around Rose and the atmosphere vibrates.

The air around Hasneti heated up, raising the temperature by hundreds of degrees.

But neither Rose nor Hasneti.

Even the Changryongdae and Yeomryongdae didn’t care if their clothes were burned or their skin was torn.

He stopped fighting and focused on resonating with the princess and the psionics even a little more.

because everyone knew

Now, their victory or defeat has no meaning, and in the end, this fight will be decided according to the number of wins and losses between the two princesses.

so everyone stops.

Even the sky and the earth hold their breath.

The moment when the world, which had been shaking like crazy a while ago, suddenly fell into silence.

?Seventy-

two kinds of martial arts, ten solar terms, seventy-two kinds of martial arts,

solar nuclear explosions

, solar nuclear explosions

?

An orb of light hovering between Hasneti’s palms was fired.

Because of its speed, the orb, which turned into a single flash of light beyond the level of creating a long tail, flew towards Rose at a speed close to light.

Rose did not dodge.

It wasn’t that there was no chance to escape.

The surface of the marble that started to fluctuate.

And the brilliance that started to burn red and blue.

Most of all, the huge psionic that started to explode with light.

Because it taught me that even if I tried to avoid it, I couldn’t avoid it, and even if I tried to block it, I couldn’t stop it.

Squeak.

Looking at the orb of light.

Rose swung her sword.

The tip of the sword drawing a circle.

What flows along that trajectory is condensed psionics.

The ability to intervene in space twists space with tremendous pressure, and the twisted space generates pressure on its own.

The end is the beginning and the beginning is the end, so the endless contradiction.

In it, the pressure becomes infinite.

Space loses itself.

And so, when Rose’s sword finally made a perfect circle, the psionic compression reached its peak.

?Seventy-

two kinds of martial arts, ten solar terms, seventy-two kinds of martial arts, ???, emptiness

erosion system,

?????

?

The orbs of light that flew towards Rose suddenly began to slow down.

no it looked like that

But the beads did not slow down. No matter how much I speeded up, I just couldn’t get close to Rose.

Just as a distance of a few tens of meters has increased to hundreds of kilometers.

Even as time passed, the distance widened and the marbles seemed to stop in place.

That’s void erosion.

In the deep sea, everything is crushed by the pressure of water.

compress the space itself.

Erosion the void in that empty place.

In the end, it was a whirlpool of emptiness that swallowed everything inside, from matter to light, in an infinitely expanding void.

No matter how powerful it is, you can be sure that it will melt and disappear in that place.

However, Hasneti clenched his fists.

The moment the orb of light is broken.

Kwa-gwa-gwa-gwa-gwa-gwa-gwa-gwa!

“…!”

Rose was thrilled.

The light orb was already trapped in a void over a radius of hundreds of kilometers.

It was because as soon as it exploded, the tremendous light and heat that burst out made her flesh hot beyond that far distance.

Even more horrifying is that that was only the beginning.

Bang Kwa Kwang! Aaaaaang!

It seems that the first explosion was only a catalyst.

The binge continues over and over again.

Hasneti’s horn flickers.

Like the sun that raged in the void, the crimson heat wave grew in size.

And the shock wave and heat from the heatwave became stronger and later pushed the compressed space itself out again.

‘What is this…!’

The pressure from the infinite void is enough to crush even mountains like paper.

But to push that pressure away with just the force of the explosion.

It was a tremendous power that was doubtful that it could be imitated even if tens of millions of tons of TNT bombs were exploded at once.

So Rose had a hunch.

If this state continues, the void will eventually break, and he will be swept away by that heat wave.

‘…was it a mistake?’

Rose muttered inwardly.

In fact, there was a chance to win.

After a fierce melee fight before Nida dodges a spear thrown by him, he thrusts his sword into Hasneti.

If it stabbed the heart, not the shoulder.

Or if you were aiming for a vital spot in the neck or stomach.

He could have killed her instantly or dealt a fatal blow.

At least, if he had just used the void erosion system on Hasneti instead of the light orb at the last moment, he would have been able to carry on with both plans.

‘No, it wasn’t a mistake.’

Rose laughed softly.

Even then, Limon wouldn’t have blamed himself.

Instead, he knew that he would have accepted the responsibility, as always, with a bitter smile.

For her who decided to support Limon with all her might, it was not an option she could choose from the beginning.

Just like how you can’t be defeated like this.

he was already his

Because I swore victory.

‘Above all, it’s still too early to regret it.’

Is it because you’ve made up your mind?

Rose felt something she hadn’t realized before.

The fact that Hasneti’s psionics are shaking wildly every time an explosion occurs in the void.

And every time, a strange flow that started from her chest was catching up with the swaying psionic.

‘Maybe…’

Rose raised her psionic as much as possible.

Of course, she was doing all she could to stop the explosion, and she had no strength left.

Still don’t give up.

If it is a limit, to cross the limit.

I’m just doing my best with the determination to squeeze my life out.

Ugh.

It seems to have reached its origin.

The moment I felt a handful of psionics flowing out of my body as the unknown warmth that seeped from the depths of my body soothed my parched body.

Without hesitation, Rose swung the sword with the psionic power.

“Small work…!”

Is it because I was already on guard?

Hasneti evaded the sword attack that flew through space with a narrow margin.

Chew!

but right after that.

She raised her eyes.

It was because an object fell from the ripped top as the sword strike, which I thought I had avoided, just barely grazed my chest.

Psionics that are disturbed at the same time.

As if the stable flow so far was a lie, the psionics get out of control and the artificial sun stops exploding.

Meanwhile, Hasneti put aside everything else and reached out.

To catch things that have fallen from their arms.

Rose did not miss the gap that Hasnetty had revealed.

Fuck!

“Kuh…!”

Taking advantage of the pause in the explosion, the entire vortex of emptiness is blown up into the sky.

And crosses the space and strikes Hasneti’s stomach while releasing the pressure on the void.

Thus, the moment when the power of the sun, which had been raging in the void, was liberated from the far, invisible sky.

Qurrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!

the clouds are melting

The stone bottle with eight gates is broken.

The whole sky was colored with the light of the setting sun.

After the explosion that would have changed the world map had it exploded from the ground like that.

While the majestic flames that can be seen from anywhere on the African continent are slowly fading.

on muddy ground.

Rose sighed.

Even though it’s already a situation with a knife to the throat.

It wasn’t just because of Hasneti’s stare at him with ferocious eyes.

Even in the midst of this, the identity of the object she was holding tightly in one hand made Rose make a complicated expression.

“Honestly, it was unexpected.”

If it was a legendary treasure that helps control psionics, she would have easily agreed.

Still, there was one reason why Rose was distraught.

“That you had it and that you gave up fighting for it.”

“…I never gave up on the struggle. It’s just that I couldn’t give up on this.”

Hasneti replied quietly.

And what I couldn’t help but take care of myself.

Looking down at the wooden statue of a birdhawk, he continued with a subdued voice.

“Because this is the first thing I ever received from him.”

A piece made by Limon at the banquet hall.

Legendary treasure too.

Even if it’s not an expensive gem.

The first gift she received directly from him, having only been able to collect traces of Limon all her life.

Seeing the Hasnetty she always carried because she couldn’t let go of it, Rose opened her mouth involuntarily.

“Hasnetty, you really could have done anything for him.”

“If you’re going to laugh at me, laugh at me.”

“I don’t mean to. Just…”

Even the world was about to burn for a man.

What should I say to her who revealed a gap in the game where she risked her life because she couldn’t give up a small piece she received from him.

Rose, who couldn’t figure it out, ended up laughing bitterly.

But that’s for a while.

After erasing her smile, Rose opened her mouth with a solemn face.

“Anyway, it looks like I won the game with this.”

“…”

“Do you want to do more?”

Let’s look at Rose silently for a while.

Hasneti closed her eyes.

Rose’s Yonghwa has already been released, probably because she used psionics to the limit to fight the power of the sun, but it’s the same with Hasnetty herself.

The entourage has already collapsed.

Most of the Yeomryongdae are also silent.

His own body is also covered in blood and wounds.

More than anything else, since her trump card had failed, she had no way to defeat Rose.

“no.”

Knowing that fact, Hasneti shook her head.

And before being a princess, as a warrior, he quietly opened his mouth.

“This duel is my…”

Koo-Goo-Gung!

But before I even finished talking.

Hasneti kept her mouth shut.

Rose also hardened her face.

The fight had already ended, but it wasn’t just because the ground suddenly started to shake as if there was an earthquake.

Because I felt something in that vibration.

“Everyone back down!”

“All avoid!”

The two princesses cried almost simultaneously.

The response of the two princesses, who were the first to detect it and immediately give instructions even in the midst of being devastated by a fierce battle, was obviously agile.

But it wasn’t enough.

Before Changryongdae and Yeomryongdae even moved.

Qurrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

The huge hole formed when the ground collapsed swallowed everything, including the two of them.
