The Heavenly Demon Can’t Live a Normal Life - Chapter 136
Chapter 136 One step forward (2)
It was a huge explosion.
A storm of aura rose and tore the virtual butlers to pieces.
That moment.
Kwajik.
Clink!
The sword is broken.
The second sword he made, Blaze, had been entrusted to Lucas, so Roman practiced swordsmanship using Dmitri’s famous sword.
The condition of the sword was not bad.
However, with a normal sword, he could not fully accept Roman’s power and was shattered as if glass were being shattered by the powerful aura explosion.
It was a natural result.
The shrapnel tore his hand, but Roman couldn’t hold back the laughter that leaked out even with the dripping blood.
‘It’s really fun.’
current life.
At one time, I thought it was a life without anything special.
I hoped that by following the path I had already experienced in my previous life, I would relieve at least a little of the boredom I felt in my later years.
The last years of the Heavenly Demon were very boring.
The strong man who threatened Baek Joong-hyeok did not exist in the world, and for Baek Joong-hyeok, who lived his whole life in a life of weak meat, a life that was only safe was not very attractive.
A longing arose.
He always wants to improve, but he has no opponent to test himself, so he has no choice but to step in place.
And now.
Roman knocked out Butler.
That’s happy enough, but the real reason Roman laughed was the way he defeated Butler.
‘I thought the Heavenly Demon’s method was perfect. that would be true The Cheonma sword method, which was created by following the previous knowledge, was certainly the best martial art of the time, but I accepted a new method in a new world and used the Cheonma sword method in a completely different direction. That means that Roman Dmitri’s Heavenly Demon Sword has room for improvement.’
excited
Just the single fact that I can see a way forward.
It was a different life from the previous one.
It was possible to step into a world that had never been experienced before by accepting a new culture, rather than simply following the life that had reached its peak.
What a happy day this is.
People looked up to the life of Baek Joong-hyeok, the heavenly demon, but the thought that there was no way to rise further gave a great sense of loss.
Salamander Continent.
Butler is just the beginning.
He was only at the end of the continental rankings, and there were masters who surpassed him all over the continent.
“Whoa.”
I took a breath.
Even though I haven’t eaten anything in over a week.
The air filling his lungs filled him with fullness.
There was no one in front of him, but Roman looked up at the clear sky and thought.
‘I hope there are many variables in this world that I don’t know about. A strong man like Butler constantly appears to test me and threatens my life the moment I catch my guard. The more I do, the more I will find the meaning of life. Just as the Heavenly Demon Sword was reborn as a perfect martial artist through countless trials, the trials imposed on me by this world will enable me to live as a human being. Life as Roman Dmitry. I fell from the top to the bottom again, but I will once again rise to the top as if I were tenacious.’
new strength.
new artifact.
I couldn’t be more excited because I couldn’t predict the future.
I turned my steps.
It was time to make the sword again.
As it reached a new level, the sword to be made this time had to be more perfect than ever.
It was then.
crash.
“Lord!”
“Are you okay?!”
people who came suddenly.
Roman’s subordinates, including Chris, arrived at the scene with an urgent expression.
* * *
The moment you arrive at the scene.
they sensed
Nothing had happened to Roman, but rather, it seemed that he had created a terrible scene in front of his eyes.
‘… How could this happen?’
I was astonished.
The area around the forge was completely in ruins.
As if the Archmage had used high-circle magic, the surrounding area was terribly destroyed.
It is impossible by human power.
No matter how much Roman Dmitri is the aura swordsman who defeated Butler, there is a limit to the explosive power of the aura.
But what is this scene all about?
It was obviously the subordinates who came to Roman with concern, but they unknowingly swallowed dry saliva as they checked every trace of destruction.
“What is going on?”
dry voice.
Roman looked down at his men.
His complexion was not good, no matter what had happened, but his eyes were full of vitality as he looked at his subordinates.
Chris said.
“I heard an explosion, so I ran. Did something happen to you?”
“No, nothing happened.”
“… If so, you’re lucky. Lord, we are the people who serve the Lord. I don’t know what time your lord is spending here, but if you ever need our help, please call. I will always await the orders of my lord.”
“i get it.”
I turned my steps.
Because nothing really happened.
He thought of leaving his subordinates and spending time on his own again.
It was a disappointing moment.
Watching Roman disappear into the forge, Chris took another look around the area.
‘Does this mean that it went one step further?’
My heart raced.
I felt strangely out of breath.
Roman Dmitry.
Chris met him and started a new life and was getting stronger really fast.
Maybe that’s why I’ve recently had confidence in my skills.
This time, while participating in the tournament held by Roman, he was not at all worried about which opponent he competed against.
no matter how strong I was sure that he would not be stronger than Roman Dmitri, so I took the time to check the skills of my subordinates as soon as I had time.
But now.
I saw the sight in front of my eyes.
I knew that Roman could not catch up with me, but this was a level of growth far beyond my imagination.
‘chris. What the hell were you doing?’
A feeling of skepticism arose.
When I first met Roman.
Chris vowed to be stronger than that.
As time passed, he realized that this was a realistically impossible goal, and he gradually showed signs of complacency rather than catching up with the goal of Roman.
It was a natural instinct.
When human beings face a wall they cannot dare to cross, they stop in awe rather than determination to overcome it.
Chris too.
He was a weak human being.
I stood in my place without realizing it, and I had a complacent thought that I might be okay with my current development.
‘Master is a person who is developing faster than anyone I’ve ever seen. Defeating a 5-star swordsman at the age of only mid-twenties is an unprecedented achievement in the history of the continent, but the master is not satisfied with that and is constantly developing. last fortnight. While I complacently took care of the condition of the subordinates, the lord took his body to the point of cruelty and moved to a new level. What on earth did I believe in and show such a complacent attitude? Even beings who have risen to a position so high that I can’t dare to catch up live fiercely every day, but I can’t believe I’m already showing a pathetic attitude of being complacent.’
I was angry.
Looking at Roman’s bony appearance.
Knowing what a hard time he had had, Chris felt an indescribable sense of shame.
It wasn’t this.
A tournament hosted by Roman.
I will win even with my current self.
However, apart from the competition results, Chris also wanted to become a person who is not ashamed of Roman’s name.
‘It’s not enough to just win. So that no one dares to look up at the lord. You have to defeat the enemies very overwhelmingly. This contest is just the beginning. I will continue to work hard so that I can surpass my lord again.’
“let’s go.”
I turned my steps.
From now on, I couldn’t afford to teach anyone.
He would cling to the training like a tenacious person, and he intended to prove what kind of existence he was in front of Roman’s eyes.
15 days before the competition.
Led by Chris, Roman’s subordinates have reached a new turning point.
* * *
When exactly one month has passed.
Roman finished the sword.
Roaring.
The flames roared.
Roman raised his sword and looked at it in the flames.
‘So beautiful.’
last month.
He did not take his eyes off the sword even for a moment.
As he struck down the sword without stopping, he fully assimilated the sword, and what was initially just steel gradually changed into the ideal form Roman desired.
A sword that perfectly suits the current self.
I haven’t been able to eat anything in the meantime, so my physical condition wasn’t good, but now I wanted to check the power of this sword right away.
Came out.
And then.
Invoking virtual beings.
The beings artificially created by the five senses of the body created three butlers differently from the last time.
crash.
Butler ran at the same time.
The beings that were used as a measure of strength.
They raised the aura and at the same time joined forces to attack Roman.
Quarreureung.
Kwak Kwa Kwa Kwa Kwam!
The atmosphere was torn apart.
Layering aura.
The attack with the combined strength of the three was more threatening than ever, but there was not the slightest wavering in Roman’s eyes looking up at it.
If you meet an enemy stronger than Butler.
The existence will use power comparable to this, and only when it overcomes power this powerful can it carry out its future plans.
widely.
took a step
looking straight ahead.
The mana boiling in the danteon was expressed through the sword.
‘Three seconds in the middle of the Heavenly Demon Sword.’
Sword of the Heavenly Demon.
The sword flashed.
It created a strong gust of wind and cut down the three Butlers who were accompanied by an aura that seemed to engulf the world.
Kwak Kwa Kwak!
Kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa!
The world was shaken.
All beings touched by the sword were annihilated.
The three butlers were obviously strong, but Roman’s sword reached a higher level.
Pasasasak.
enemies disappearing.
Even though they were virtual beings that did not exist, Roman came to the conclusion that he could defeat them.
‘I’m finally ready.’
I looked down at the sword.
what name would be good
Salamander Blaze.
If the previous swords meant a new life, the third sword wanted to express the present self.
‘Your name will be called Darkness.’
Sword of the Heavenly Demon.
An existence that will plunge opponents into despair.
Roman drew his sword.
Closing ceremony was over now.
* * *
Let’s go back to the castle.
His subordinates were waiting for Roman.
After arranging his subordinates, Chris walked along Roman’s side and reported what had happened.
“Last month. As the lord commanded, we entered into an infinite competition of our own. We held a match to record at 3-day intervals, and as a result, we selected 6 swordsmen with a high win rate. Here is the list.”
Shuk.
got a list
When I checked the contents, I saw familiar names.
[Chris Kevin Volkan Pookie McBurney Henderson.]
The front four.
They were expected figures.
They showed overwhelming growth among Roman’s subordinates, and when they looked at their skills, they thought they would occupy the top level unconditionally.
However, the latter two were unexpected.
McBurney needed time to adapt because of his physical limitations, and since Henderson was from a commoner, his starting point was behind that of other prosecutors.
but.
The results were different.
Roman laughed silently at the situation where McBurney and Henderson proudly put their names on the top odds ratio.
Chris asked.
“Can we proceed like this?”
The decision is up to Roman.
Unless Roman mirrors the roster.
No matter what kind of confrontation has been unfolded in the meantime, Roman’s subordinates will accept the order and accept the reality.
their development.
All of them originate from Roman.
If he came to the conclusion that Roman was not in the top six, he had no intention of doubting it. To them, Roman’s presence was absolute. Even if you say a conclusion different from common sense, you have the faith to follow it.
“I will proceed like this. but.”
I saw the subordinates.
In their determined expressions, Roman gave them a reason they must win.
“It is a competition held under my name. I believe that beautiful defeats do not exist in the world. Prove to others that you are worthy of my name.”
“I follow orders.”
Meaning to follow orders.
He expressed his will to die.
At first, the subordinates, who lacked the appearance of warriors, were now quite cool.
“I’ll look forward to it.”
in that word.
The men risked their lives.
I don’t know what kind of opponents will come out, but they have completely erased the possibility of defeat from my mind.
like that.
The competition is right around the corner.
