Childhood Friend of the Zenith - Chapter 629

[Episode 629] Nine. and three.

Woowook-!

It was cold that filled the hallway.

Dududuk-! In the aftermath of the fierce fight, the sound of the palace collapsing was heard.

It was clear that it was still, but there was a small, small sound echoing in it.

pop.

At some point, the sound stopped.

Silence came.

Suddenly all sounds stop.

I didn’t even feel the coldness that was driving me.

I wasn’t upset about this.

I just stare at the woman who is still holding my hand.

Black blood dripping from his mouth.

Even the eyes with the whites exposed while fainting.

It was clear that he had already lost his mind.

[How did you know?]

She was talking to me.

What’s unusual is that it’s not the voice of a woman who originally wanted to be pretty.

It’s that a thick male voice is heard.

Hearing the voice, he smiled.

“Oh yes. Nice to meet you too.”

[…]

He is silent for a moment at my greeting.

His expression was stiff, so he couldn’t quite grasp what he was thinking.

didn’t care about this.

A few seconds pass.

[I’ll ask again.]

He asks me again.

[The ninth pure-blood.]

[How did you know I was in the body of an apostle? asked.]

‘Hmm.’

Hearing the words, he narrowed his eyes slightly.

There are already two pieces of information in that short statement.

Apostle.

ninth pureblood.

I had to forcibly shorten the corners of my mouth that were about to go up.

Then he said to the guy.

“Apostle… is this bitch your apostle?”

[Haha-.]

He briefly laughs.

[I know you’re not surprised, but Genga is trying to put on a funny play.]

I got caught.

okay.

I wasn’t particularly surprised by what he said.

I had been through so many things in my life that I was not surprised by this.

much less

It was a part that I expected, so it was even more like that.

‘I didn’t know what the apostles were nine, but I mean.’

All I expected was that there was something inside Yoo Seon’s body.

I even noticed that it was related to ice crystals.

Other information was unknown.

[Are you not going to answer my question?]

Hearing that, he nodded his head.

The temperament is dirty and urgent.

“It wasn’t really a huge question.”

should be expected It wasn’t even that hard to figure out.

It was for a very simple reason.

That would be too.

“This year.”

wired.

“It’s off topic.”

Too weak to be a dragon.

[Subject?]

“Yes. Off topic.”

It’s not what I’m going to say, but there are too many things that Yoo Seon lacks to be called a dragon.

That was my first doubt.

I wouldn’t have known it before.

put together a few times. It’s part of what I learned while fighting.

I don’t know what principle or effect this authority has.

The wire that used the power was strong.

It’s just that the level is so different compared to when it wasn’t there.

‘…It’s not that bad.’

It wasn’t even that strong.

Oh sure.

Considering his age, it must be a staggering level. If you simply compare ‘me’, it means yes.

It is true that she has reached the hwagyeong. Substituting that into a person other than a dragon is a pitiful level.

Without authority, it is no different from a normal unmanned soldier.

It’s a bit strange to treat Hwa-gyeong as a normal soldier. Anyway, it was.

To be called a dragon is somewhat poor.

Just convinced by the battle.

‘It’s too much to become a dragon.’

It is true that Yoo Sun has excellent talent as a human being.

It didn’t seem like he had the qualifications to become a dragon himself.

That’s what I thought.

What could have happened that made Yoo Seon become a dragon?

The reason why I became a dragon beyond the wall.

and.

Even though I call it pureblood. The reason mammary glands are not pureblood.

I wanted to know that.

wriggling

When greed briefly swallowed it along with its authority.

Only then did I notice one thing.

‘There is something inside.’

Yoo Seon is holding something.

like me.

what is it

What do you really have?

What does it contain that makes it so minute and clear?

What you can be sure of here.

‘That’s what made this guy a dragon.’

It was that.

As long as I had such confidence, I didn’t worry too long.

It was because Tom noticed an already familiar aura.

There was no way he didn’t know what he had felt and had come from just before.

ice crystals.

Yoo Seon felt the energy of ice crystals.

This is not strange.

In the first place, the blood family of the Ice Palace itself uses the Ice Ball.

It is only natural that he possesses an ice-crystal aura.

As the prince said.

‘As long as the blood relative has the Curse of the Ice Crystal, energy is a natural part of it.’

The sensation felt by Yoo Seon is different from that.

much more twisted

It felt much deeper.

what is it

I was so curious about that.

“It’s new to meet you like this.”

[…Huh.]

I was a little (?) strong, and fortunately I was able to meet you.

“What should I call you? Ice crystal? Can I call you that?”

[…It doesn’t matter what the name is. Isn’t it like that?]

Awesome!

“…!”

Kwaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!

An ice pick rises through the ground.

I was able to quickly back away and barely avoid it.

Cook Cook Cook-!

The protruding awl pierces the ceiling and builds a barrier.

“What is this again?”

[They thought the distance was too close to talk.]

Dududuk.

The body of the mammary gland that spat out the words gradually changes.

The twisted body was being forcibly regenerated.

Torn skin comes to life.

Broken bones are mended.

It was a very rough sight.

[Nice to meet you, it’s the ninth. I am the third pureblood.]

Wooddeuk.

Even the sunken upper body was completely restored.

[It is called net.]

‘Mang.’

Hearing his words, he remembered the time when Yoo Seon used his powers.

-net…!

It seemed like he said something when he used the authority.

I guess that was its name.

There.

‘It’s the third pure blood.’

In addition to calling me the ninth, the meaning of putting myself in order.

“Are you saying that there are seven more besides you?”

Except for the fact that the wired line is not pureblood.

It could be said that there were more things called pure blood.

May the mang answer that question.

[There was. In the distant past.]

I heard an affirmation and an answer in the past tense.

old time

“You mean no now?”

[Haha.]

Mang laughs briefly.

[does not exist. Except for one guy… No, there must be two now.]

The increase in two must mean one person.

who is one

There.

‘There were eight purebloods. Seven disappeared and only one remained.’

The situation is roughly like that.

Even though it’s such an old situation. Now, none of that mattered.

The guy who says it’s a mang and confronts me.

this guy.

‘It’s not a blood demon.’

The guy wasn’t a blood demon.

I knew it because I had encountered blood demons even for a brief moment.

At first glance, it seems that the energy is similar, but something is different.

if this is the problem

‘They said that the ice crystal was left behind by the blood demon.’

The Dragon Emperor they are talking about was, in my view, a blood horse.

He said that the cold began when he placed an ice crystal in the North Sea.

Together.

If only this guy wasn’t really a blood demon.

‘What is this again?’

It couldn’t have been a strange situation.

“What are you? What the hell are you doing in her body? And what is pure blood?”

ninth pureblood.

What is pure blood in a situation where you don’t even know what a dragon is?

‘The princess said it was a dragon that broke the bowl by itself and climbed up.’

It was an ambiguous word indeed.

It was said that there were only eight people besides me who went through this process.

To a question with such a meaning.

[This is a strange thing. it’s ninth You’re misunderstanding something.]

Mang tells me.

[How do you think I’ll answer him?]

He said he had no intention of answering the question.

Hearing that, I laughed without even realizing it.

“He has a rough personality. Could you tell me something?”

[Do you think I am favorable to you?]

“You can also help others in the same situation and live by asking if they are pure blood or not.”

I spit out and inspect the ice in front of me.

can you break it?

I was just thinking about trying it out.

at that time.

[It’s the same. It’s nonsense.]

Mang continues talking to me.

His voice was full of unknown coldness.

[You are a Distortion. It means that it is something other than something that shouldn’t have existed in the first place.]

He frowned at Mang’s words.

An existence that shouldn’t exist?

“What do you mean?”

[In the first place, we should have been eight. This was a rule set by the world.]

In the first place, there should only be eight.

Is that like a rule? It was incomprehensible.

“Saying that, seven have already been left behind. It must have been filled to the extent that it fell behind.”

[Ha.]

At my answer, Mang burst into laughter as if it were absurd.

[The fact that you don’t understand this in itself. It is proof that you are the Distortion.]

He didn’t answer this time.

Instead of answering, he straightened up and threw his fist once.

A fist full of fighting spirit smashed through the barrier.

bang-! Caddeuk–!!

Let your fist hit the barrier. The walls cracked and splintered.

At this level, if you hit it four or five times, it will break.

[…how violent.]

“Keep talking. I will do what I have to do.”

It’s not a threat.

I thought it was something I should actually do.

“So what?”

He asked again, clenching his fists.

“Shut up if you don’t want to tell me what I am.”

I didn’t get frustrated and annoyed at why you didn’t tell me like before.

If you’re not going to tell me, quit.

“Because you will find out.”

Even if it became rather cruel and violent.

I will do anything

Wow—!!

The barrier shakes greatly.

The fist went deeper and the gold thickened.

Once more.

Let’s hit it a little harder this time.

I judge that and put more energy into it.

[Stop.]

I looked at him while maintaining the motion at Mang’s words.

“why. Do you have something to say?”

Are you thinking of telling me now? I nodded my head and looked at him.

[…Stop your useless actions. We don’t have to do this.]

“There’s no answer yet.”

He swung his fist at the nonsensical words.

Kuaang–!!!

A louder vibration than before spread through the hallway.

I take a sidelong glance at the flying debris.

‘I won’t fight back.’

Even after doing this, there is no counterattack.

What does this mean?

Does that mean it’s not worth it?

or not.

‘Is it a situation where I can’t counterattack?’

It could be.

‘Anything.’

You’ll know once you hit it.

This time, I touched the soul to write a heart ticket.

Suuu-!

That time when I felt an uncomfortable vibration in my soul and was about to hit the barrier again.

[…We are like enemies.]

He hesitated.

Only then was Mang’s words able to stop the movement.

“Keep talking. Because I am listening.”

[…]

The energy is of course maintained. It had to be prepared to break at any time.

[…Aren’t you planning to deal with the solvent?]

Interesting words.

Along with the meaning that the solvent is not himself.

It means that you know that I want to leave the Heavenly Demon and deal with the Blood Demon.

It was also a word that secretly shed blood mime for his enemy.

Well, if the solvent is a blood horse.

I tried to hide it and asked.

“A dragon? They say he left you here. What does it have to do with you?”

[…]

silent.

Seeing that, you move your elbows slightly.

[The reason purebloods went from eight to seven is because of him.]

“Oh.”

Only then did valuable information emerge.

The reason why the number of dragons called pure blood decreased.

Is it because of the blood demon?

“Explain. What do you mean?”

[He ate other purebloods for his own greed.]

He frowned. What this means.

‘It means that a blood demon is also one of pure blood.’

It is the existence that appeared as the first disaster in midfield.

A guy who has been hiding in the Murimmaeng while plotting something until now, centuries later.

Also, another dragon that planted blood in me was a blood horse.

he.

‘They killed other purebloods by eating them?’

There, the will of a man called Mang was implanted here.

Why?

‘That’s not the heart of the dragon.’

Not only does it have a tremendous energy.

I felt the power so strong that I didn’t know what was inside.

In essence, it is different from the power of blood demons.

So, whose energy is this?

The doubts I felt after touching the ice crystals were resolved when I looked through the net.

‘That was all this guy’s strength.’

What was inside the ice crystal was the energy of a guy named Mang.

I don’t know why the blood demon threw it here, but I’m sure it wasn’t his energy.

judged and asked.

“Why did you think we were enemies?”

[It’s a simple thing…]

he said.

[The Dragon Emperor intends to eat all purebloods, so he will visit you as well. Solvents are your enemies too.]

As you said, it was a very simple reason.

It was also a vaguely deafening word.

“why? Why is he preying on other purebloods?”

Dragons are arrogant. It is said that seeing other people of the same kind causes enmity.

So it’s only natural that we hit each other.

Considering that this guy only referred to ‘pure blood’.

It was clear that it had a different meaning.

[To increase strength. To achieve what he wants… you’ll need strength.]

“What does he want.”

[…Unable to speak.]

Kwaaang-!

[…!!]

The barrier collapses with my fist.

now one.

Just one hit and all the barriers will collapse.

“Then keep your mouth shut.”

[It’s really rough.]

“It’s because the life I’ve lived hasn’t been smooth. I’m a bit impatient.”

[We clearly said there was no need to argue like this…!]

“If you want to pretend to be allies, you should at least inform them properly. If that’s the case, all we can do is fight.”

I’m sick of talking about it now.

If you’re not going to do it, it’s best to get rid of it quickly.

‘Besides.’

I looked at the mang and thought.

‘This guy doesn’t feel very trustworthy either.’

Even while listening to the information he spits out. That’s why I’m not particularly obsessed with it.

It’s not bad to hear about the blood demon.

It’s not bad to hear about pure blood in the ninth and third.

but.

‘I’m reluctant.’

If I was really in a hurry, I would have said something, but this guy wasn’t like that.

You don’t even feel like trying to appease me. it wasn’t deep

It seems there is something up.

It is a feeling that the interest that I had when I felt it cooled down.

‘bothered.’

I’m sick of it.

It’s about repeating these silly questions.

So I wanted to keep it simple.

yes the simplest way.

“If you lose, you will say something properly.”

Bullying until you spit out words.

Most of it would have been solved then.

Woowook-!

At this, he wrapped his fist around his fist and tried to strike the final blow.

[He really doesn’t listen.]

Kwaddeuk–!!

“…!”

In an instant, a gust of wind quickly leaped backwards.

It was incredibly cold.

To the extent that it was incomparable to what the wire was exhaling.

I widened my distance and looked at him.

[I’m interested in you, just like you are.]

A mang in the body of Yoo Seon looks at me and starts talking.

[A pure-blood born against the rules. The power to devour authority there. How can I not be interested?]

“Does it seem that I am unusual?”

[It’s not unusual. It is a force far beyond reason. It’s like…]

A network shaped like a wire points the fingertip at me.

[Don’t you think they chose you as the one to stop the dragon?]

The power to deal with non-human dragons.

The meaning behind it was so clear that it made me laugh.

As the guy said, if it was that.

‘What do you want?’

What does this world want from me?

A bloody horse that must have been a catastrophe that the world came down on.

If he survives and tries to express his will again.

The world should be in a position to support it.

[I am. I will grab his throat and tear it open and

swallow him.] [It wasn’t enough that he ate me. The one who trampled on the heart and left it in this land. I mean, I’ll catch them somehow and punish them.]

Anger was felt at Mang’s words.

[Hani, I can agree with you. It means that we can help each other achieve our goals.]

“They say that I am outside the rules. Can we still do it together?”

[Even if that’s the case, it doesn’t matter that you’re pureblood.]

He changes the way he was pointing at me.

It looked like he was holding out his hand.

[Ninth. Let’s hold hands with me. to overcome the solvent.]

“Hmm.”

He put on a worried expression.

do you want to do it together?

“How are you supposed to be together when you’re sealed in an ice crystal?”

He asked as if questioning. OK.

[Yongje made a mistake when he left me.]

Mang tells me not to worry about this.

“What?”

[I shared the pieces of my body and energy and sealed them in ice crystals. He wouldn’t have known.]

[There are any number of opportunities to recover your energy.]

Hearing Mang’s words, he frowned.

His body and energy are divided and sealed. I realized after hearing this.

‘so.’

Was that the reason why I felt tremendous energy in the ice crystal?

together. Where have you heard this

A hero from the past whom I met one day. Shaolin’s Cheolyoung was like that.

‘It was said that the blood demon’s five senses were torn apart and the body and energy were divided and sealed.’

It feels pretty similar to that.

Is this really a coincidence?

‘It may or may not be.’

It could just be something similar.

This may also be related to something.

But now something else bothered me. That’s a very big word too.

I looked through the net and asked.

“I heard that ice crystals in the palace protect against severe cold. The other half said it would cause severe cold.”

That’s what I heard from the king.

It is said that each divided ice crystal plays a role opposite to each other. It was said that the princess was sacrificing her life force to maintain it.

At this time.

To say that he spent time and regained his energy.

It sounded pretty annoying.

“Is that it? Is this what you intended?”

[Hmm?]

Mang tilted his head at the question.

[That’s a strange word.]

It looked like he was asking something strange.

[Of course. It’s necessary to recover your energy.]

“…”

Hearing the answer, he erased his expression.

In other words, the frigid cold caused by ice crystals.

In order to prevent the cold, the blood relatives of the Ice Palace were sucking up the life force of the past.

It was the sound that this guy intended.

[That’s where he made the biggest mistake.]

Mang laughs.

[Perhaps it was intended to be taken to be swallowed after I had filled up all of my energy. He wouldn’t have known that he would be sealed himself. Thanks to that, I was able to buy time to recover.]

[It’s not long now. I will be resurrected So hold hands with me and let him…]

“Enough.”

[Hmm?]

I shook my head.

I could hear it there.

[Nine…]

“Now that you’ve heard everything, that’s it. Originally, I had no intention of doing it together.”

After hearing the situation, I became a little more determined.

“Is it because he’s a bit of a dick? I hate it more. Go away.”

[Ha.]

Mang let out an empty laugh.

[I really need to come out here…!]

The mang who was about to spit out the words stopped.

[You…what are you trying to do now?]

It’s probably because you confirmed my actions.

Roaring–!!

Heat gathers all around me.

I made an inferno on my hand and rotated it repeatedly towards the target.

However, the direction I am looking at is not a network of wired bodies.

It is a surface with nothing on it.

no it won’t be anything.

It was because I felt a tremendous energy from far below the ground.

maybe it’s over there

Where there are ice crystals.

[No way!]

Mang reacted harshly as if he noticed something.

When I heard that, I smiled and looked at him.

“I’m going to see you now.”

The infernal jade wrapped in heat was thrown to the ground.

Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!

An explosion exploded, leaving a huge hole in the ground.
