The Constellations Are My Disciples - Chapter 230

◈ Episode 230. Underground person (2)

A huge building standing in the middle of the market.

There.

“after.”

Black Cat sighed lightly and leaned against the back of the chair and closed her eyes.

‘I’m dying…’

When the dungeon storm broke out, the black cat sucked honey without realizing it.

Of course, it is not that he intentionally tried to suck the honey, but rather that he sucked the honey because Changju, one of Kim Joo-hyuk’s disciples, did not put any monsters in the Tower of Destruction, but the point is that he sucked the honey.

Anyway, perhaps it was a reaction that sucked up the honey, but Black Cat had been suffering from endless work for the past few weeks after the dungeon rush ended.

‘I never thought it would be this crazy.’

In fact, a few weeks have already passed and the world has come into its own very quickly.

Nevertheless, the reason why Black Cat is still suffering from such heavy workload is because of problems with the transportation of goods.

‘…Just because the building is restored doesn’t mean all the materials inside it will be restored.’

Thanks to this, Black Cat used the market to transport goods here and there in order to fulfill Kim Joo-hyuk’s words to him to help restore the world.

Thanks to this, Black Cat’s workload increased significantly.

Yes, actually, that alone is a lot.

“…No matter how much I think about the academy, it’s too much.”

Black Cat turned her gaze to one side with a tired expression.

What his gaze was focused on were documents that had not yet been processed.

Black Cat, who knew that all the documents his eyes were looking at were related to Valhalla Academy, sighed repeatedly and soon started moving his hands to look at the documents of Valhalla Academy.

He knew very well that the piled up documents would not disappear just because he put it off.

Of course, if all of Valhalla Academy’s documents are processed, the market’s work will pile up, and if that work is processed again, the vicious cycle of Valhalla Academy’s work piling up will repeat itself.

‘Still, compared to Mr. Logan, he is somewhat of a nobleman.’

Black Cat thought of Logan, who was currently working hard with her, buried in paperwork.

Not long ago, I went to his office to talk about transportation, and the documents piled up in his office at the time were such that one could literally call it hell.

‘…Yeah, it’s better than that.’

Black Cat felt comforted there and began processing the documents for Valhalla Academy.

Black Cat soon began processing documents related to Valhalla Academy, and soon found that several documents related to the ‘World Monster Research Society’ were mixed in.

“This…?”

He wondered why there was a document about the World Monster Research Society in the documents related to Valhalla Academy and quickly read the document.

‘Is it because of the commendations and awards?’

Soon, Black Cat learned that this document was from a teacher at Valhalla Academy.

and.

‘this person is?’

Black Cat immediately looked down and saw that the name ‘Lily’ was written on the award, and suddenly remembered something from before.

‘…Surely he was a teacher who was not kicked out because the ruler behind the scenes told him to kick him out, but Kim Joo-hyuk told him to restore it?’

Black Cat thought so, and immediately looked at the documents of Liliya, who had applied for overtime work as a monster researcher at Valhalla Academy at the World Monster Society.

‘I said I couldn’t see him, but I guess he was at a conference.’

With that thought in mind, I lightly signed the document and immediately began processing the next document.

How much time has passed like that?

At the point when Black Cat’s head started pounding, he was able to process all the documents for Valhalla Academy.

“Holy shit…”

I couldn’t help but let out an exasperated remark as I looked at the market documents piled up on one side again, as if I had made a real promise.

####

30 minutes.

It was a time that could be said to be long and short, but 30 minutes was a very long time in a battle.

“Whoosh whoosh….”

Kim Joo-hyuk is breathing heavily and looking at the underground person standing in front of him.

In contrast, the underground person seemed to be more relaxed and was wiggling his fingernails here and there, waiting for Kim Joo-hyuk to reveal an opportunity.

Looking at that, Kim Joo-hyuk frowned.

‘What Zhong Liquan said is correct.’

Clearly, the underground person was the same number as Kim Joo-hyuk.

Obviously, his eyes were cloudy and there was no sign of Lee Ji-hyuk, but despite this, he was not pushed back in the fight with Kim Joo-hyuk, and in fact, had a similar inaction.

As evidence, even though Kim Joo-hyuk and Ji Ha Ji-in fought for over 30 minutes, only a few small biological deceptions occurred and almost no actual damage occurred.

However, Kim Joo-hyuk frowned.

‘It’s not good.’

This situation was not going very well for Kim Joo-hyuk.

‘…I don’t think it’s alive.’

Kim Joo-hyuk stared at the underground person.

An underground person who looks at himself with dull eyes that are completely devoid of life.

He was still standing with a relaxed expression, but unfortunately Kim Joo-hyuk was not like that.

‘It’s getting hard.’

Kim Joo-hyuk frowned as he realized that his stamina was slowly declining.

If the people in front of him were not the same number of underground people as him, but people less skilled than Kim Joo-hyuk, he would not have been this tired.

The reason his stamina drained so quickly was because of the underground people.

Since their skills were equal, Kim Joo-hyuk fought the underground person with almost all his might for the last 30 minutes, and thanks to that, Kim Joo-hyuk’s stamina was quickly being discharged.

‘We need to see the outcome quickly.’

A thought that passed through Kim Joo-hyuk’s mind.

After that, numerous thoughts about how to deal with the underground people passed through Kim Joo-hyuk’s mind.

Tsk-!

Kim Joo-hyuk’s thoughts did not last long.

“!”

Just one moment.

In that short comma-unit time, which could be said to be a moment, Kim Joo-hyuk was able to see the underground person who had reached in front of him and was raising his hand once again.

An instinctive hand that contains only roughness without any technique.

But rather.

“Tsk!”

The roughness that contained nothing was powerful because of its simplicity.

Quad deuk!

The underground person’s outstretched hand instantly pushes away Kim Joo-hyuk’s sword and reaches the heart.

Kim Joo-hyuk strikes off the underground man’s hand by raising his sword upward.

However, at that point, Kim Joo-hyuk had already slapped the underground person’s hand away.

“!”

He realized that the underground man’s right hand was about to touch his stomach.

Sigh!

Red blood splashing out.

Fortunately, Kim Joo-hyuk turned his waist the moment the underground man’s hand penetrated, preventing the attack from being a direct hit, and immediately moved the hand holding the sword.

The distance between the underground person and Kim Joo-hyuk is very close.

In fact, swinging a sword from this distance was close to impossible, but Kim Joo-hyuk used his strength to strengthen his hand.

This moment, when Kim Joo-hyuk allowed an attack and an opening opened up for the underground, was clearly a crisis, but at the same time, it was an opportunity that would never come again.

Tsk-! Kagagagak-!

As soon as Kim Joo-hyuk swings the sword, a sharp metallic sound erupts.

The reason is because the underground person who recovered his hand blocked Kim Joo-hyuk’s sword.

In fact, the moment the sword was blocked, Kim Joo-hyuk had to immediately withdraw his body.

The fact that the underground person had already retrieved his hand meant that there was always room for a counterattack.

however.

“!”

In that situation, Kim Joo-hyuk prepared to swing the sword again.

‘If I drag this on any longer, I’ll be at a disadvantage.’

The reason is because time is not on Kim Joo-hyuk’s side, but on the side of the underground people.

That’s why Kim Joo-hyuk made his decision at this moment.

“Sigh!”

I showed my ignorance.

Kim Joo-hyuk’s blank sword, which he quickly retrieved, falls on the underground man’s head.

If the underground man’s attack is crude, Kim Joo-hyuk’s sword is an extremely simple sword with nothing in it.

However, that simple sword once cut down waves of monsters that were coming in like waves.

That simple sword once cut off the arms of a dragon that was attacking him.

but.

Ka-ga-ga-ga-!

The sword that fell like that could not cut the underground person’s body.

The underground man’s nails, which I don’t know what on earth they were made of, blocked Kim Joo-hyuk’s sword, but Kim Joo-hyuk did not stop there and immediately prepared for the next step.

There is only one thing prepared.

The stab that once took the life of the black dragon is aimed at the heart of the underground person in a strange form.

Kang!

Likewise, Kim Joo-hyuk’s advice did not go through to the underground people.

Samsikdo unfolded behind him.

Then the four meals unfolded.

None of this worked for the underground people.

As if hitting an egg on a hard rock, Kim Joo-hyuk’s attacks turn to nothing one by one.

And at some point, Kim Joo-hyuk realized something.

The underground person in front of me was deliberately not blocking the attacks he was pouring down.

That moment.

Wow!

“Khaak!”

Kim Joo-hyuk felt terrible pain in his abdomen and fell to the ground.

“Tsk!”

Kim Joo-hyuk hurriedly takes his stance.

However, the underground person was now just looking at Kim Joo-hyuk with a bizarre smile on his face.

It was as if his superiority had been confirmed at this moment.

And looking at those underground people.

“….”

Kim Joo-hyuk had no choice but to admit it.

That he was mistaken.

‘It’s not Dongsu.’

Kim Joo-hyuk believed what Zhong Li-kwon said.

He said that the underground person was his sister-in-law.

And while actually fighting with him, Kim Joo-hyuk thought that the guy in front of him was on the same level as him, and even found that part very unexpected.

Although he clearly showed outstanding ability in battle, he clearly looked like he had lost his sense of humor.

In short, Kim Joo-hyuk was implicitly looking at him lightly and was keenly aware of his mistake.

He was not weaker than Kim Joo-hyuk.

No, rather, he was superior to Kim Joo-hyuk.

That too clearly.

“Kuhigigig.”

The moment I realized this, the underground person in front of me made a creepy smile with a bizarre expression.

Staring at Kim Joo-hyuk as if he wanted to see this scene.

However, even after seeing the underground person’s appearance, Kim Joo-hyuk was thinking about his next move rather than despairing.

If he had just collapsed from this sense of despair in the first place, he wouldn’t have come this far.

‘What should I do?’

Should I attack with Martial Arts?

No, that’s impossible because nothing works.

So should we try something new in this situation?

You can do it, but your physical strength won’t support it.

So, should we take this moment to research technology that can outsmart the underground?

There is not enough time.

“….”

A split second.

Numerous questions and answers go back and forth in Kim Joo-hyuk’s mind.

Continue.

endlessly.

Kim Joo-hyuk’s mind was spinning like crazy to overcome this situation.

and.

[Didn’t I tell you? You are not learning. [It’s a reminder.]

Kim Joo-hyuk saw a memory.
