The Heavenly Demon Can’t Live a Normal Life - Chapter 105
Chapter 105 The Unfinished War (2)
Right after the battle is over.
Roman was lost in thought.
‘There are still many things I don’t know about in this world.’
the world of unknown.
The magic experienced directly gave me a fresh shock.
As I read countless books in the library, I remembered countless times what magic was like and how to prepare for it.
However, the knowledge in my head and reality felt different.
I knew Mother Nature would respond to the magician’s touch, but the tree trunks that moved like snakes and the intense flames were beyond my imagination.
A different realm than witchcraft.
It was great.
While Moorim developed martial arts with the same roots of using the energy of nature, this world created a new realm of magic.
‘Magic is a world that I can’t judge quickly. If Edwin Hector was a much greater wizard. I might not have been able to escape alive even with all my might. I haven’t fully recovered my martial arts skills as the Heavenly Demon, Baek Joong-hyeok, and a hasty judgment could drive me to death.’
Pincers by Edwin Hector and Butler.
It was a dangerous moment.
Edwin Hector’s magic attacked Roman in an unexpected realm, and Butler was the first strongman he experienced in the new world.
The first half of the Heavenly Demon Sword Act, 3 seconds.
The attack intended to end it was blocked against Butler, and an immediate counterattack could have cost him his life if he was mistaken.
if you turn back time
What choice did Roman make?
‘I would have made the same choice then.’
Battlefield.
It is a luxury to hope for safety there.
Baek Joong-hyeok, the heavenly demon, reached the pinnacle by overcoming countless limbs, and his thoughts were not different even now.
Life-saving experience was required.
He knew that if he died due to lack of ability, he would eventually become only a vessel to that extent, and if he survived the ordeal and survived, he could move on to the next level.
Blood boiled.
Because I knew that there were many mountains to overcome even in the new world.
Roman Dmitri couldn’t control his boiling blood as he watched the morning sun rise.
“chris.”
“Tell me.”
“The Hector Kingdom will not give up like this. This war is not simply a battle of pride, but a matter of Hector’s fate. Perhaps after taking a rest for a day or so, he will quickly organize the defensive positions on the southern front.”
“Then shall we immediately prepare the troops?”
“no.”
I shook my head.
Edwin Hector.
Not a good opponent.
If you continue the war despite experiencing your own powerlessness, it can be interpreted as meaning that you have made sufficient preparations.
“Only a fraction of what we dealt with overnight. The Kingdom of Hector still has overwhelming power compared to the southern front, and there is a possibility of being defeated by enemies if you rush down the mountain. From now on, it’s not a matter of what we can do. The Cairo royal family will definitely send the main army to subdue the Hector Kingdom, so we need to get enough rest and maintain our strength until then.”
I wasn’t drunk on victory.
Faced reality.
The safety of other Southern Front people?
It doesn’t matter.
Risking one’s life to save them was a foolish decision at this point.
‘The commanders of the southern front chose to remain in the castle despite my advice. From now on, it is their responsibility to bear it. If you hold out for ten days, they will be able to save their lives, but even if they are all sorted out, the general trend will not be greatly affected. In the first place, it is a matter of whether the main force of Cairo can capture the rear camp. I just have to keep my power until then and do what I can when the situation is over.’
made a decision
Chris nodded.
“All right.”
leave him behind
Roman climbed the mountain.
“I will have some time alone for a while. Never interrupt my time until I command you to.”
That is.
It was Roman’s last command that Chris remembered.
* * *
I used arithmetic.
Roman, who created his own space, sat cross-legged and fell into meditation.
‘Edwin Hector. He waited, digging a trap like a spider, expecting that I would attack.’
I caught my breath.
Consciousness fell deeply.
My five senses faded and the sensations around me became false.
‘The beginning was an intense fire.’
Flash.
I opened my eyes.
in front of your eyes.
Intense fire erupted and hit Roman as it was.
“Inferno.”
Hwareuk.
Roaring.
It’s so hot that it melts at once as soon as it touches your skin.
Roman quickly dodged.
at that time.
Like the image in his memory, Edwin Hector tried to drive Roman by using the memorize magic.
‘What if I attacked without giving a chance at this time?’
Quarreureung.

In an instant, he dug into the opponent’s space, and even though the flames were burning right in front of him, he let go of all his attacks with a simple movement.
suffered some degree of damage.
His skin was reddened, but direct damage was prevented by protecting his skin with mana.
And then.
‘Serious battle.’
Flash.
Extreme Pleasure Sword.
An aura of aura rose from the sword, and in the blink of an eye, Edwin Hector was decapitated.
but.
The attack did not work.
Edwin Hector disappeared with Blink, just as he had avoided his last blow, and Butler did not miss the loophole revealed immediately after the attack.
In an instant, my body shook greatly.
Butler, enraged at the fact that Edwin Hector was attacked, raised his five-star aura to the extreme and attacked Roman.
Quaang!
Kwak Kwa Kwak!
The atmosphere shook.
sure
Butler was a step above Roman now.
Even though it was an imaginary existence, the pressure was vivid, and Roman countered Butler’s attack by stepping on his steps.
The moment you get a little bit off guard.
Edwin Hector’s magic exploded.
It was an unfavorable situation.
It is right to retreat to save life, but Roman made a different decision from his own experience.
‘This is the time.’
gap in the attack.
dug into that space.
He raised the Heavenly Demon Spirit and cut off Butler’s head.
As a result.
Awesome!
Took.
Degururu.
Roman’s head was blown off.
It was an imaginary conclusion that the existence of Butler, which Roman had experienced, could fully respond to an attack of this magnitude and counterattack in reverse.
The surroundings changed again like the first time.
In front of Roman Dmitri’s eyes, Edwin Hector was using Inferno, and he made a different choice this time in the hot flames that filled his vision.
repeated choices.
died over and over
in an imaginary world.
Roman repeated the number of cases.
Regardless of victory or defeat, he saw with his own eyes what kind of results his choices would lead to.
Quaang!
Roaring!
engulfed in flames
The burning pain was real, but Roman was enjoying his situation.
‘I am not absolute in this world. If his last years in Murim were too boring, Roman Dmitri would have to risk his life against Butler, who is not even the strongest in Hector Kingdom. Maybe I was hoping for a situation like this. New challenges, new strengths. I am a being who cannot live contentedly with a comfortable life.’

From the bottom of life to the top.

A child who might once have been ordinary has become an unordinary being by living a stimulating life.
so that.
‘yet again.’
Through the flames, Roman rushed towards his enemies.
* * *
Battles in the imagination.
I can’t remember how many iterations I did.
but.
It just kept fighting.
According to the memory of personally experiencing how the opponent would attack and how he would react to his attack, the number of cases piled up in his head.
The attack did not fail every time.
There was a situation where Roman slashed both of them and won, but Roman was not satisfied and repeated the situation once again.
The world of weak meat.
It was a way to survive there.
When encountering enemies that are difficult to handle, Baek Joong-hyeok constantly ruminates and thinks of various ways to defeat the opponent.
hook!
Attacked Edwin Hector.
that was a trap
He induced Butler’s loyalty and blocked it, aiming for Butler’s loophole and driving his sword through his heart.
hooked!
“Gagging.”
I screamed.
Butler stumbled and fell, and Edwin Hector, who was left alone, was no match for Roman. cut them both down When Hector’s men arrived, Roman was already gone.
next situation.
On the contrary, he used Edwin Hector’s attack.
Enough to attract Butler, and Edwin Hector’s magic induced the situation to explode on Butler.
Perong!
Roaring.
A fire broke out.
As Butler burst into flames, Roman blew his neck out.
An act that is repeated countless times.
The number of all cases was accumulated.
It may be different from reality.
The real enemy must have had more potential than that, but at least he learned the method of destroying the moment he experienced.
Finally.
Awesome!
I blew off the opponent’s neck in the shortest amount of time.
I caught my breath.
After the desired amount of experience had accumulated, consciousness rose to the surface again, and the surroundings changed to normal.
however.
Roman’s condition was not good.
Even though the battle took place in his imagination, red-hot scars remained all over his body.
the pain came
His dry mouth parted, but Roman stood up with a nonchalant face.
‘It’s time to go back.’
yet.
The war is not over.
* * *
On the return of Roman.
Chris explained the situation.
“As expected by the lord, Hector Kingdom immediately attacked the foremost defense positions on the southern front simultaneously. In just one day, the 3rd and 4th lines of defense were broken, and shortly thereafter the 2nd line fell into enemy hands. And just yesterday, the kingdom of Hector gathered all the supplies for war and gathered in the rear camp. It seems to be an ulterior motive to wage a desperate struggle there.”
Nongseong (籠城).
It was the best they could choose.
It was an unexpected result for Roman, but it was different for Henry Albert.
“Mr Roman. Now the Cairo royal family is in a very uproar. I thought that the defensive positions on the southern front could hold out until the main force arrived in Cairo, but they all collapsed after less than three days. There is no hope on the southern front. If we continue like this, our lives are at risk.”
soon.
Cairo’s main force arrives.
However, the kingdom of Hector had already completed preparations for Mercury, and from now on, the sacrifices could not be avoided.
“The Cairo royal family is waiting for a call from Roman Dmitri. We’ve done enough. So why not leave the rest of the work to the main unit in Cairo? A siege is a battle in which sacrifices are inevitable. If the kingdom of Hector is driven to the edge of a cliff, it will surely not try to fall alone.”
He looked agitated.
Just in case.
I was worried that Roman would say what he would do alone.
Having decided to stay by Roman’s side somehow, he hoped that Roman would make a safe choice as much as possible.
about a week.
While I was alone, the situation changed.
Roman said.
“Connect communication with the royal family.”
once now.
It was time to talk with the Cairo royal family, who had been in trouble for a week.
