The Heavenly Demon Can’t Live a Normal Life - Chapter 15
Chapter 15 Ki and Mana (4)
Rumors are faster than feet.
Rumors from Lawrence spread to Demetrius in just one day.
“Did you hear that rumor?”
“Rumors that Master Roman subdued Blood Fang? Does that make sense? Master Roman is a half-penny who can’t even wield a sword properly.”
“… That is true, but the testimonies of people who have seen it are very vivid.”
“Originally, it’s a rumor. Even if someone the size of Master Roman went out hunting and caught a wild boar, the reality is that rumors are inflated as if he had beaten a legendary dragon. From what I’ve heard, it seems that Master Roman showed something in front of Lawrence’s lords, but the Knights of Dmitry must have made the board. That day, the Dmitri Knights hurriedly left the castle.”
“is it? Well, how could Dmitri’s idiot do such a thing?”
Most didn’t believe it.
Just as people do not believe in the shepherd boy, the image of Roman in Dmitry was far from believable.
absurd rumor.
People were so dismissive.
Even when the merchants from Lawrence spat and talked about it, the only reaction they showed was ridicule.
At that time when men were talking about rumors for a while.
The boy who was tidying up his belongings pricked up his ears.
‘… Master Roman subdued Blood Fang?’
thud.
It felt like my heart was sinking.
The boy’s name is Kevin.
Helped by Roman, he was earning a living doing odd jobs that Hans later saved.
He could not forget the day he met Roman.
The moment his life fell to hell as he was beaten by the Blood Fang gang, Roman appeared like an angel and brought judgment upon the evil group.
Bloodfang’s screams.
The way he shoved a dagger into his mouth and cut off his tongue just looked so cool to Kevin.
It was from then.
Kevin has a dream.
‘Let’s become a strong man like Master Roman. A strong person who can protect my people in any danger. It’s the only way for my family to survive in a barren world where no one can be trusted.’
gritted it
I don’t know when and where the Blood Fang gang will attack again, but since my father couldn’t play the role of head of household, he had to cheer up.
Rumors that I heard in the meantime.
Dmitri’s people all thought it was bullshit, but Kevin was sure it was true.
thump.
My heart raced.
Roman Dmitry who defeated the villain with a branch.
In that case, it would not be a problem to wipe out the Bloodfang gang alone.
His hero, who promised to solve the usury problem, made a miracle happen in just a few days.
‘Ah, boy.’
I was crying.
I don’t know if Master Roman really did such a dangerous thing for himself, but the fact that he didn’t forget the promise he made to himself, who was only a commoner, was impressive.
wiped away the tears
I have to work, but I couldn’t concentrate on the emotions that keep crying.
When will I be able to see Master Roman again? If such a day ever came, Kevin would never forget his current feelings and wanted to express his gratitude without fail.
I had a busy day.
That’s when I’m about to finish the last work like that.
Took.
“Do young master… ?!”
“It’s been a while.”
In the sight of Roman Dmitri coming to him, Kevin unknowingly lost his luggage on the ground.
I was lost for a moment.
Kevin, who doubted that this was real, was startled and bowed abruptly.
“Thank you, Bocchan! Thanks to you, my family was able to survive. Thank you very much!”
I cried.
Kevin vomited heartfelt words with a red face.
Roman said.
“How have you been, Kevin?”
“ah… !”
I was speechless.
Roman remembered his name.
Others might think it’s a trivial part, but Kevin couldn’t take it lightly.
It was thrilling.
Kevin spoke in a sobbing voice as the crying reached his throat.
“Thanks to you, Bocchan, I got along really well. The Blood Fang gang no longer persecuted us, and thanks to Hans’ work, we were able to solve our urgent livelihood problem. I don’t know how to express my gratitude.”
“Thank you. From now on, I intend to make you a proposal.”
“… What do you mean by that?”
“From now on, your family will not have to worry about making a living. In a warm house that blocks the cold wind, you will have three delicious meals every day, and you will live a life where you not only spend each day doing hard work, but also enjoy your hobbies. The way to live like that is simple. I intend to do that in the future.”
I got goosebumps.
I don’t know what Roman was trying to say, but Kevin instinctively knew that a momentous opportunity had arrived.
“Therefore, live for me. If you swear allegiance to me, I will give you a new life.”
Roman’s remarks.
A thunderbolt struck in my head.
Kevin had never in his life dreamed of being able to follow someone as great as Master Roman.
But Roman suggested it first.
Be your own person.
Though he was stunned at the idea that it might not be real, Kevin knew he couldn’t miss Roman’s offer.
It was instinct.
Kevin fell on his stomach and hit his forehead hard on the ground.
puck!
“From now on, I will live for Master Roman. If Master Roman tells you to die, you will die, and if you tell him to kill someone, you will kill him. The promise to take care of our family. That alone is enough.”
I raised my head.
Drops of blood flowed from his forehead.
Drops of blood dripped down into his eyes as well, but Kevin looked up at Roman without blinking an eye.
He was a fool.
Do you show loyalty in blood?
‘Even foolishness resembles a wild horse.’
Gwangma was also like this.
The person who kept his seat even against hundreds of members of the political faction in response to Roman’s order to keep his seat is a madman.
At that time, he was only unknown, but he got the nickname of a wild horse.
Even though his whole body was covered in wounds from attacks coming from all sides and the blood flowing from his body made a river, the light horse did not shed a groan and stopped the Jeongpa people.
Faithful of the Heavenly Demon.
Even when he first picked up the light horse, he swore allegiance to Roman with a single word.
“My life belongs to you from now on.”
Kevin’s voice.
It was more than a resemblance.
Kevin was more extreme than a wild horse.
food.
laughed
A child with another charm.
In a new life, Roman is ready to accept a new connection.
“Yes, you are mine from now on.”
A time when no one paid attention to Roman yet.
Roman got a man.
* * *
Roman brought Kevin with him.
After asking Hans to help Kevin adjust for the time being, Hans moved on to the place he recognized.
A shabby workshop in Naeseong.
It was a place used by Baron Romero in the past.
Therefore, entry of outsiders was strictly prohibited, and the isolation from the outside space was certain, making it suitable as a place for training.
“From now on, I will spend a week in the workshop. In the meantime, you don’t need anything like food, so don’t let anyone inside. keep in mind My people are in danger and they shouldn’t seek me out unless they need me right now.”
I begged God.
and went inside
inside the studio.
There was nothing inside.
A cool breeze blew, and the floor was spread wide with straw, as if Hans had prepared it in advance.
It was a meticulous detail, but it was a part that Roman today did not need.
Roman threw away all the straw on one side and turned to the lotus position so that he could fully receive the energy of the earth.
Heavenly Demon God.
operated the machine.
Roman, who fell into his own world in an instant, slowly moved the mana accumulated in the Danjeon.
‘Phase 1 of the Heavenly Demon Art.’
today.
Roman’s body hadn’t even taken the first step of the Heavenly Demon Sacred Art yet.
It was necessary to lay the foundation for the weak body, and in order to enter the first stage, the human stage, it was content to accumulate mana.
And now. Roman collected the minimum amount of mana.
In order to perfectly use the martial arts derived from the Heavenly Demon Spirit, he had to enter the human stage.
‘The stage of human beings begins with removing the body’s turbidity.’
anger.
Mana moved.
The mana that was moving heavily through the veins was soon blocked by a huge wall.
thud.
it was takgi
Roman is someone who has never lived a productive life until he is in his mid-twenties.
There was more takgi accumulated on his body than people of the same age, and Roman’s face turned red in a situation where he was blocked by takki from the start.
But he did not lose his composure.
It was an expected situation from the beginning, so I made a plan to collect the minimum amount of mana and enter the human stage.
future life.
Roman must be strong.
As much as they forged new relationships, they needed strength to protect them and achieve their goals.
person’s stage.
that was the beginning
preparing yourself.
Roman calmly contemplated the interior.
‘Remove all takgi at once.’
thud.
Kururureureung.
Mana reacted.
Heavenly Demon Baek Joong-hyeok.
Takgi began to melt according to Roman’s strong will as he lived his whole life clinging to martial arts.
The power of mana varies depending on the will. If people who did not understand mana could only demonstrate 10th place power even with a potential of 100, Roman was a person who exceeded the limit and exerted 150.
Mana swung strongly according to Roman’s will, and nosebleeds began to flow from Roman’s face at the powerful impact.
rumble.
It was a hopeful symptom.
Black nosebleeds flowed as the takgi from the body was expelled from the body, not from the initiation of fire.
Time passed.
day.
Two days.
… and three days
Roman was completely immersed in the mental method.
His face was drenched in sweat and the blood that had flowed down his nose was now leaking through every pore.
calmly, step by step.
Roman discharged Takgi.
To enter the human stage.
And to regain the power of the Heavenly Demon once again.
A state of trance.
In this way, Roman spent his own time in a space cut off from the outside world.

Hans.
He hurriedly moved somewhere.
As planned, he was planning to meet him in the evening, but the situation that befell him did not allow him to relax.
“I think the young master came out.”
a week ago from now.
As soon as Roman entered the closing practice, Lawrence announced his intention to visit Dmitri.
break up.
It was a matter to be met and resolved once, but the meeting was postponed when Hans reported Roman’s situation to Baron Romero.
and today. I received a report that Viscount Lawrence and his wife had visited Dmitry’s estate early in the morning.
So, he had no choice but to go find Roman.
‘The atmosphere back home is unusual.’
The fact of the breakup has not yet been revealed to the world.
Of course, everyone in the know knows, but I wonder why Lawrence hasn’t disclosed it yet.
elaborate
It was a position only Roman needed.
Arriving at the studio, Hans stood in front of the door and waited for Roman, even though he had to call Roman right away.
“Remember, my people are in danger and they shouldn’t look for me unless they need me right away.”
Roman’s orders.
Hans remembered it.
Many people are waiting for Roman in the castle.
However, it was more important for Hans to follow the orders of his master, Roman.
Roman, who has changed recently, is not one to talk empty words.
There must be a clear reason why he shouldn’t call himself, so he told people that he would call Roman right away, and then quietly waited for Roman to come out.
how much time has passed
A few people came looking for Hans.
Hans, who had sent them all back, only felt the presence of people inside when the sun had risen in the middle of the sky.
Sigh.
The door is open.
And a familiar face coming out.
Hans, who was about to greet Roman with a bright face, was startled when he saw Roman in an instant.
“… Do you, too, young master?”
sharp eyes.
milky skin.
And even a strong physique like a man.
sure
Roman’s appearance was slightly different.
