Childhood Friend of the Zenith - Chapter 353

Time flies.

From the hour that had just passed noon to the time of Yushi.

The thick scent of blood still lingered in the forest, but it was a time when the filled with speculation and murder began to diminish little by little.

It has reached a so-called lull.

The screams of the government officials who had been heard without rest gradually diminished.

It was only when the sun was about to set that it was time to put things in order.

Although it was an unexpected huge attack.

Ironically, the raid was able to engulf it in less than a day.

That’s not all that’s surprising.

When I returned after heading to the Demonic Realm,

I thought it would have been a few days.

Surprisingly, not even an hour had passed since I disappeared.

What could be the reason for this…

As for the raid.

Could it be because the main characters, the Black Night Palace Master and the Black Dragon Sword, suffered an early defeat?

If anyone has heard, the raid they belong to cannibalize in less than a day.

I don’t know if I’ll spit out the word, isn’t it bland?

When it comes to raids, bland and otherwise do not exist.

Especially if someone died.

Fire.

When the breath of the captive is cut off and all the vitality burns up, only black ashes remain.

Then he let go of the hand he was holding.

You fall to the floor helplessly

The shock caused the body to crumble.

Such was the end of the unknown Sapa.

Tuk-tuk.

I shake my hands and look around.

‘Is there more.’

widen your senses

Maybe it’s because I climbed through the realm of the mountain, but I could feel only a part of the mountain.

It has grown to half of Taishan.

Maybe it’s because the top hall is open and the bowl is bigger.

Undoubtedly, it is because of the more detailed and precise development of the ability to control.

‘…I think there are a few hidden ones.’

The rest seemed to be at a level where the instructors would handle it on their own.

tadak.

I retrieved the remaining flames and checked the condition of the body.

‘Fatigue has accumulated.’

My heavy body feels so good. It was because he rolled to the point of exhaustion as soon as he reached the hwagyeong.

What should I do? As soon as I came out, there was an accident.

If it didn’t roll, that was a problem.

There.

‘Because I had to find him.’

While walking around with the intention of finding and cleaning up Jang Seon-yeon, it feels like she is cleaning up with both sides.

As a result, they couldn’t find Jang Seon-yeon.

That’s the problem.

‘…what happened?’

According to the law of the Magician, Jang Seon-yeon should have come back with me.

It was the same answer when I asked the World Tree.

It was one of the expected things, so I thought it wouldn’t be a big problem.

even.

‘If it’s the same situation as now. It fits perfectly.’

it’s an attack

I didn’t know that some crazy guy would attack Shinryonggwan.

Thanks to that, it’s okay to say, but it’s a situation where it’s quite easy to kill the people you’re going to kill.

If Jang Seon-yeon came back with me.

It was the same situation as the bandit when it was removed without a trace.

‘It’s bothering me.’

Just in case, I went to the place where Cheol Ji-seon opened the Demonic Realm.

Jang Seon-yeon’s figure had disappeared as if she had died.

While burning the enemy to death, he checked all of Taesan.

Jang Seon-yeon could not be found.

How could that be?

‘Speaking of hiding… No, but I still don’t understand.’

It’s strange that Jang Seon-yeon, who must have lost her memory, hides from me.

Even if it’s hidden, there’s no way I won’t find it.

If that’s the only possibility left.

‘Already dead.’

What I can’t find because I’ve lost my life and lay on this land.

That’s the only possible story.

That is, unless it disappeared without the knowledge of mice or birds.

“Tsk.”

It got a little annoying.

It would have been a pretty good situation if I could get rid of it at this opportunity.

Because there is a possibility that you don’t know.

“Haa…. Since when did I say that everything I do is good?”

I brush my hair roughly and recover all my energy.

His body was full of fatigue, but he had no problems moving so far.

this is probably

‘Is it the effect of minecraft?’

He unleashed all demonic energy into his body and used his heart as collateral.

Thanks to this, he succeeded in becoming a Demon and completely cutting off the connection with the Heavenly Demon.

Even…

“…I didn’t know you could solve it.”

Check it out by clenching your fists.

My current body was originally human, not a demon.

Once you become a demon, you cannot go back until you die.

This was an immutable law given by the Heavenly Demon.

I was able to return from a demon to a human.

‘Was it this easy?’

Around the time I became a demon and completely turned demonic energy into my own.

I was able to understand without anyone teaching me.

how to return to human

It’s about how to use magic.

Is it like an instinct?

‘There…’

Roll up the right sleeve and check the skin.

Looking at the traces left there, I frowned.

“What the hell is this?”

There was a subtle thing left that I didn’t know what effect it was.

When I became a demon in my previous life, there was nothing like this.

Why?

it’s like

“older brother.”

“…!”

As soon as I heard the voice, I hid my sleeves. Immediately turn your head in the direction from which the sound came.

Pawoochul was standing there.

“Oh, are you alive?”

“…was he alive?”

At my words, Woo-chul Pae puts on an expression of being hurt.

He’s as tough as me, so it only makes him look more frightening with that expression.

“Hyung-nim… it looks like he’s okay.”

Pawoochul looked around me and widened his eyes.

There were only charred corpses of Sapa people all over the place.

There weren’t too many of them, but it might surprise you to see them.

And I looked at Pae Woo-chul’s eyes as he spit out those words.

Suddenly I spit out the words.

“Did you kill him?”

“…!”

Hearing my words, Pae Woo-cheol’s eyes trembled.

The emotion in his eyes was something I knew well.

Looking at the state of Pae Woo-chul’s body and the traces left on his hand.

It seems that Sapa uninhabited.

Because of that, the image seems to be a bit distorted.

Looking at that, I could feel that even though he was big, he was still a late index.

“Good job.”

The inspiration I feel ends there.

If you’re born as a human being, that’s what you’ll go through anyway.

No consolation or sympathy needed.

As long as it was a part that I had to endure alone, it was just that far.

“Looks like it’s over, so go back.”

“…Hyung-nim…”

“I have to go too.”

In the first place, government officials should have evacuated in advance.

i just

The idea of finding and getting rid of Jang Seon-yeon.

I just needed a way to vent my anger to relieve the fucking feeling.

It must be a strange thing that Pawoochul remains so far.

“Why did you stay?”

“…”

Pae Woo-chul slightly turns his head at my question.

Averting his eyes and keeping his mouth shut, it seems that there is a reason for not being able to say anything.

Seeing that, I moved my steps and passed Pawoochul.

My hand taps Pae Woo-cheol’s sturdy shoulder.

“done. Let’s go down now.”

If you don’t want to talk, it’s annoying to ask.

If it was what I wanted to say, I would have done it.

“Yes… Brother.”

whey.

The spring breeze brushes past winter on your cheeks.

Originally, it should have been fragrant.

The smell of blood mixed with it.

“…”

Spring of this year.

It’s probably the worst of the seasons I’ve been through since returning.

******************

All collapsed and crushed Shinryonggwan was turned into a shelter.

With the gwando students who are bleeding and receiving treatment.

I can also see those who are shivering in fear.

I see people with dead eyes sitting on the wall as if their souls have escaped.

Even though it was an attack that wouldn’t have passed in a day.

The condition of those who experienced this for the first time was not as good as it was.

‘No, it must have been rare.’

Was it an era of peace?

Ending the war with Sapa while going through a war is a thing of the past.

It seems that the first people of Sapa are living in harmony.

In the end, it is no different that they are holding their breath under the line set by the political faction.

Absolutes called the triad.

If you consider that all of them are members of the political party, you will understand better.

Now is the era of the Righteous Sect.

No matter how much the Sapas appear, gnashing their teeth. He must have been unable to straighten his shoulders under the prestige of the faction.

How long ago did this accident and raid take place?

It’s probably the first time in decades.

‘Even in my previous life, it was a big deal since the Black Night Palace collapsed.’

The incident of attacking Shinryonggwan was at least unprecedented in his previous life.

This is also an abnormality that appeared in the present life.

I mean this.

‘It’s my fault.’

It is said that it is a butterfly effect caused by my regression.

That word sounds a little bit harsh.

“…no…no… get up…!”

“Long hyung… long tongue!”

“Death penalty… Please open your eyes…”

In the middle of the plain prepared in Shinryonggwan.

The reason why I keep hearing a sound close to screaming.

That’s because that’s where the bodies of the dead gwando students are gathered.

just how long has it been

Did that many Kwando students end their lives?

To put it bluntly, the number of those who were killed was not too many compared to the total number of gwando students.

Still, dead is dead.

If it hadn’t been for this incident, they might have been alive at least right before the bloodbath broke out.

I don’t know if he would have been killed for this.

If so, it’s my fault.

If something happened that would not have happened in a previous life.

it’s all my fault

‘…’

I didn’t know that this would happen.

no i knew it

I already knew that someday something like this might happen.

The problem with experiencing it myself is that I feel much more like a dog than I expected.

furthermore.

I see someone’s back standing with a bloody sword in the middle of the screams.

The shaman’s promising star always had a lazy expression and a loud tone.

Standing in the center of the dead priests, he didn’t say anything.

As long as there were disciples belonging to the shaman. It seems that there were also deaths among them.

Jamryong’s back, which is watching it closely, catches my eye.

nod

I couldn’t stand it, and I could feel the taste of blood on my biting lips.

It’s a really crazy day.

I tried to approach him, but I turned my head.

There’s nothing I can do about approaching him now.

take a step

After walking a little with a weary step, I saw Gujeolyeop in the distance.

Gujeolyeop’s appearance was also not in very good condition.

A tired face and a tension that could not be erased.

Unlike when fighting monsters on the front line, it must have been the first time he actually fought against people.

I can see the cold sweat that I couldn’t wipe off is still flowing.

“…are you here?”

Sensing the approaching Gujeol-yeop, I lower my head slightly.

“Are you okay?”

“yes. Worker-in-chief… you seem to be all right.”

“What do you mean?”

“Because it is hard to imagine that a Japanese soldier would be beaten anywhere.”

“…”

If it was normal, he might have slapped me on the calf, saying that he was rude.

Now I just sigh and move on.

“You worked hard.”

In the midst of passing by, Gu Gujeo-yeop speaks to me.

Hearing that, his eyes narrowed slightly.

did you suffer?

Do I deserve to hear that?

I went through the passage and entered the building.

Buildings are all starting to collapse, so it’s kind of hard to say.

“…under.”

I see people moving in a hurry.

It feels like a mixture of government officials and instructors.

-Has there been any contact from Maeng yet?

-…will be coming.

-What do you mean now!? You belong to the League!

– I’m frustrated too!

The atmosphere is not very good.

It could be more so when people are busy.

It is a shelter created in a hurry to treat and rest the injured.

The problem is that the number of lawmakers is significantly less than the number of injured people.

Not to mention, even fewer lawmakers are dead, so it has to be slower.

I passed them and continued walking.

“Ah…”

Then someone noticed me and spat out a sound.

It’s a situation I’ve been watching since the beginning.

It was ridiculous to see her wrapped in bandages.

How much blood did you shed? Why did you become so emaciated?

“I’m here?”

In the meantime, it was Paeng Ah-hee who stayed by her side as if she was nursing her.

Shattered hair and a dusty uniform from not being able to change.

Paeng Ah-hee, who has become clumsy to be called a son of a famous family, looks at me with a tired expression.

“…Have you heard the story?”

I had to laugh at Paeng Ah-hee’s sudden remark.

“Looks like a strange rumor has spread. I didn’t do anything…”

“Really?”

“uh. really.”

Paeng Ah-hee laughed bitterly, probably thinking that my words were a joke.

Leaving Paeng Ah-hee behind.

I saw someone looking at me and making small gestures.

It is Namgoongbia, who is wrapped in bandages and has an emaciated face.

“…Hello…”

I had to grind my teeth inwardly.

“Are you saying hello?”

Namgoongbia flinches at my angry voice.

“…Are you mad?”

“Won’t you?”

“…Sorry.”

Namgoongbia gets wrinkled in an instant at my words.

I didn’t like that look.

That’s how you apologize to me.

“What were you trying to do?”

“…huh?”

“You shouldn’t have to attack while watching the opponent.”

heard the story

That Namgoongbia had stopped the Black Nightgung Lord.

And that’s how it turned out.

“Are you crazy? Do you want to die?”

“…”

“Then what would you do if you die? What are you going to do when you’re weak…!”

The more I speak, the more I can’t control my emotions.

Angry at yourself, not at anyone.

Didn’t I almost lose it again without knowing anything stupidly?

because I’m incompetent

It made me so angry.

At that time, Namgoongbia’s hand carefully grasps the hem of my dress.

“…I’m sorry…don’t cry.”

words that came suddenly.

– Are you crying?

It reminds you of a situation you’ve been through in your previous life.

“Who is crying?”

“…I’m fine…”

Bones are broken here and there.

They said that the bet was wasted and that he was in a dangerous situation due to too much blood loss.

what’s okay

“It’s okay…don’t apologize.”

“…huh.”

I was the one who should be sorry.

really ugly

I felt so bad for letting go of my guilt in this way.

What to do when the level rises

I can’t even do one of these things.

I had to thank the World Tree for this.

As expected, it should have been a few days later than now.

It was highly likely that it was the power of the World Tree that prevented the process and made it come out shortly after.

‘What if it’s a few days late?’

It’s a terrifying thought.

It was also something I didn’t want to think about.

So that’s good.

that she wasn’t dead.

Move your gaze.

Dang Xiaoyeol was lying next to Namgoongbia, eyes closed.

Looking at her condition, she didn’t fall asleep naturally.

It seems that he was forced to sleep using a bet.

“They say there’s no danger to their lives, even if it’s because they bleed too much.”

Paeng Ah-hee tells me what I was curious about.

“…but why did you marinate it?”

“…Unnie’s level is high, so it’s okay, but So-yeol said that it’s faster.”

Namgung Biaya, which is at its peak, has a very high natural healing power, so there is no problem.

Because sugar heat is not at that level, that means it is faster.

I also heard what Dang So-Yeol did to the Dark Night Palace Master.

“…”

I remembered the words and inadvertently touched her hair.

Namgoongbia only watched my actions closely, but did not show any special behavior.

just ask me

“What about Seol-ah?”

It’s about hypocrisy.

“I am resting.”

Reminds me of what happened during the day.

This and that happened, but Wi Seol-ah passed out after that.

Because of that, I had to spend some time rectifying the collapsed Wi Seol-ah and Wii-jin.

even.

– It seems we have something to talk about. yes?

What Biuijin said to me in a meaningful way.

damn it

It was not meant to be easily passed on.

‘How to fix it.’

I don’t know.

Once an accident explodes, it explodes loudly to the point of fucking, and every time it happens, it just makes me dizzy.

“Hey.”

I’m scratching my head about what to do.

Paeng Ah-hee suddenly talks to me.

“…why?”

“The swordsman was gone earlier.”

“The swordsman?”

I wondered if something was going on in the invisible barrel.

The sword is fortunately alive.

After all, it’s not easy for a soldier like that to die in an attack like this.

‘I don’t know if I think of the Blue Sea Sword.’

It felt like my lips were drying up as I remembered the old man who had lost one of his arms and collapsed.

“He asked me to come see you when you come.”

“Me? Where.”

It is a message that the swordsman is looking for me.

Paeng Ah-hee told me that Geomhu was at the place where Cheonghae Ilgeom was being treated.

Soon after, I told Bia Namgung and Soyeol Dang about my bet and moved on.

In my mind, I wanted to stay there and go to Wiseol-ah right away.

I thought it would be urgent if the swordsman was looking for me.

Cheonghae Ilgeom headed to the space where he was being treated.

The instructors who were escorting me flinched when they saw me.

When I tell them that Swordsman found me, he naturally avoids me.

It seemed that I had heard it beforehand.

After breaking through the escort and moving.

Seruk.

Remove the cloth covering the front.

There, the Qinghai Ilgeom and I seem to have fallen asleep as if the treatment was finished.

The swordsman who called me was sitting there.

“…You’re here.”

“…!”

the problem is.

Beside the swordsman who was kneeling down.

The white-haired, white-eyed man he met during the day was also sitting there.
