Childhood Friend of the Zenith - Chapter 400

Let’s think about war.

Needless to say, just calling it hell would suffice.

No matter where I walked, the traces of the dead were full. The clear valley water was mixed with blood and lost its color.

The brilliant sky is dyed red, and the towering walls of the castle are cracked here and there.

All those who stayed on the street were either wearing a frightened expression or were full of desolation, as if they had already given up on everything.

There is no hope.

Their expressions said so.

In the first place, war is like that.

Just as a beautiful fight cannot exist, the most brutal of them is war.

Under the name of bloodshed, the world was gradually rotting away.

My previous life was just like that.

It’s only been a few years since the Heavenly Demon appeared. If short, a short time was enough to bring the world to that point.

How many years are left until such a world arrives now?

At least I knew it wasn’t that long.

At that time, there was a new sword.

In addition, it was possible to overcome the blood coward because there were countless forces following the new sword.

I know very well that such a thing is impossible for me.

Even so, if I really want to take the place of Wiseol-ah.

It means that we need to reserve at least as much force and power as Weiseolah.

The new sword’s inaction is also ineffective.

‘It’s a force.’

Countless people who helped her were also a problem.

It was impossible for me to attract people with the status Wi Seol-ah had at the time or the friendly way she did.

This temper, of course, was because I had no experience dealing with people in that way.

It’s not really a way for me. There was no point in trying to force it.

I had to find my own way.

‘My own way…’

There is nothing that comes to mind.

Because I knew the easiest way right away.

that.

‘Mainification.’

I knew that I could corrupt others with my magic, just as I made Namgung Cheonjun that way.

In addition, he knows that he can treat them like slaves with Magi on a leash.

So, if you want to build a force, this is probably the best fit for me.

I can’t believe it, as much as I want to create a new force.

I don’t think there’s a better way than that if it’s packed with people who have been eroded by my demonic energy.

‘Is that true?’

Is it the right thing to do?

Such a thought suddenly crossed my mind.

I didn’t want to live like that, so there are not one or two things I hesitated about.

At least I want to live a life different from my previous life, so I am struggling so much, but if I finally choose this method.

‘What’s the difference between me and the Heavenly Demon?’

No matter how you look at it, if you take this action in the name of moving to stop the Demonic Cult.

…Isn’t that no different from making a Demonic Cult?

Those thoughts were filling my head.

Of course, if so.

‘…Is there another way?’

After all, this kind of worry was something that could only be done when there was another way other than this.

Just because it’s not right and I don’t want to do it.

It’s not a situation where you can decide to do this or not.

So I also feel this part, so I set the line from the time I decided on the list.

Those who have no problem even if corrupted by magic.

Even if I live and die as a demon. Rather, it also organized the better ones.

This is the last excuse I can give myself.

‘Even if it’s not right. I have to deal with that too.’

There is no answer to saying that only horses will take the place of Shingeom.

Know.

That I’m not a bowl for that.

So, you have to use all the means and methods you can do more.

guilty? regret? scruple?

I repeat.

That’s something you can do when there’s another way.

What this means.

It meant that I couldn’t afford to choose such a thing now.

There is no time to worry.

If you have a plan you can do it. have to fulfill it

Now was the time to build up the strength to carry it out as quickly as possible.

Quad Deuk-!

I put more power into my fists to speed up.

thud-!

As soon as it hits the wall, the wall of the cave collapses on impact.

Even the slightest movement causes pain.

But maybe it was because it hurt so much, now even when it hurts this much, my eyebrows twitch a little. Should I like it now that I’m more used to the pain?

To think that I should like this kind of thing, I wondered if my brain was pickled in training.

In the meantime, let’s find the difference from before.

‘The behavior has changed.’

It’s a very subtle difference, but there is a change in the motion of extending the fist.

What should I say?

Should I say it’s a little cleaner? If that’s not the case, should I say that something inconvenient has disappeared?

I don’t know what to say, so I think about it for a while, and I come up with the right word.

‘tenderness.’

There is flexibility in motion.

It feels like I have become more flexible and the way I use my strength has gotten a little better.

‘No, it’s not just the mood.’

close to certainty.

It was clear that there were changes in the body while practicing Tuapacheonmu.

Does this show that the frame of the body that Pazon was talking about is changing?

‘It’s ridiculous.’

Even if you die and train like that, it doesn’t get better.

Just learning one more Deep Gong would open the way.

‘…No, it’s a bit harsh to say it’s just that.’

Even breathing was painful, so if enduring it itself was a problem, it was a problem.

No one would dispute the saying that there would be no divine feat as long as one could endure the pain.

It was something you would know if you experienced it at all.

I moved my body without stopping.

My whole body was already wet with sweat and I had been moving for a few days without sleeping, so my fatigue was quite accumulated.

Even so, he moved his body without the slightest hesitation.

It seemed that he would not stop until he reached his limit and lost his mind.

It’s been days since I’ve been behaving like that.

Maybe it’s because I’ve been so focused, I’ve been feeling strange for a while now.

body shakes

It would be more correct to say that it is shaking rather than moving.

As if it had escaped my will, my body was fluttering on its own.

It was a movement that lost control, but I didn’t want to hold on to it.

Because my few remaining instincts told me not to hold on to this.

I feel pain in my foot as I step forward.

My knees and back were not in perfect condition.

In Danjeon, the Tuapa punches endlessly.

The bets overflowed, and there was no break for several days.

At best, it was at the level of moving the body while using deep air, so there would be nothing to do other than bet with this.

My vision is blurry.

Should I catch your attention?

There was no need for that.

The countless stretches of motion move spontaneously even without my will.

The pain gradually dulls.

Is it a trance stained with fatigue?

I felt it was very funny because I knew that it was not a place I could reach with just something like this.

It doesn’t matter.

now.

‘A little more.’

I wanted to entrust myself to this feeling just a little longer.

It is an unknown inconvenience.

Because I know that if I try to come to my senses just a little bit, this subtle sense will be cut off.

A paradoxical sensation that should be tried to be ignored.

Should this be called enlightenment?

What will happen if you get out of this sense? I was a little curious about that.

That moment.

Fighting.

‘ah. Shit.’

Was the worry you just had a problem?

Gradually the mind becomes clearer.

The senses I had been holding vaguely began to return to their original state.

Should I try to find it again?

By the time you think about it

“Go there.”

Someone appears and grabs my body.

The body, which had been moving wildly, was forced to stand still.

“…ha…”

Then, suddenly, the power that had been holding on to the body suddenly released.

sat down as it were.

“Haa… haa…”

I barely maintained my body with my palms on the floor.

Were you this tired?

Beads of sweat run down your face and wet the floor.

It was only then that I could feel that the hand I was holding on to was shaking.

I didn’t notice. It seems that the body has already reached its limit.

As I was staggering and gasping for breath, someone from behind spoke to me.

It was a paison.

“I looked at how much I was going to do, and they did it until the sun came up.”

“…yes…?”

I had to open my eyes wide at Pazon’s words.

It’s been that long…?

Pazon, who confirmed my expression, smiled and continued.

“You don’t seem to know how much time has passed.”

It seems that there was no pazone until just before.

when did you show up How long has it been since you appeared?

At least not in my memory.

Was it really that much time that had passed since I was engulfed in that hazy sensation?

“…”

In that situation, I looked at Pazon quietly.

he grins

“Are you sorry?”

“…no.”

“If it’s not, the regret will remain on your face.”

did you?

I thought it wasn’t, but it looks like there’s a t-shirt on my face.

“Don’t think I interfered, because if I hadn’t caught you there, it would have been a big deal.”

“I didn’t think so.”

You could tell just by looking at his body.

If I had done it as it was, the group would have come.

The body was at its limit right now.

A trance is also a trance, but it must have been saved by Pajon because he was afraid that my body would be damaged. I knew the reason, so I didn’t care too much.

After hearing my answer, Pajon pursed his lips as if he didn’t like something.

“…It’s not fun anymore when you say that.”

“What can I do…”

The moment I was about to speak out in bewilderment. Pazon tosses something.

When I snatched it up with my weak arms, it was a gourd.

It looks like there is something inside.

“At least the neck should be damp first. Eh, tsk tsk…. They’re all old, so they’re serving young guys water.”

“…thank you.”

I was already thirsty, so after paying my respects, I drank right away.

I swallowed some of this, and I feel like I’m going to live.

As I was drinking so much water, Pazon asked me.

“How is it? How does it feel to be there for a moment?”

After taking a few sips, he questioned Pazon.

“That’s where it is.”

“That’s where you just landed.”

“…”

“It’s blurry and I don’t want to get out of it. Don’t you have the anxiety that if you make a mistake even for a moment, you will come out?”

“…that.”

“It’s the right direction, so don’t be surprised.”

I had to express a strange impression at Pazon’s words.

I thought it was something similar to simple enlightenment, but I was listening to Pazon’s explanation. It was a slightly different feeling from the realization that comes to an unmanned person.

“The reason I told you not to regret it is because it’s a place you need to reach someday anyway.”

“I have to reach you someday.”

“Have you heard of the term trance?” “

Yes .”

A sense of forgetting oneself and becoming one with the movement.

This was a phenomenon that often appeared when a warrior attained a certain realization.

Did you say it’s like a dream to those who do it?

“What you’ve been through is a kind of trance.”

That means. In the end, can the phenomenon I just went through be called enlightenment

? When such a question crossed my mind, Pajon said to me, “To be precise

…

it can be said that it is the state of trance created by Tua Pa

Tianmu.

”

The trance created by Pacheonmu?

“Does Tua Pacheonmu create a trance?” When

I asked with a strange expression on my face, I saw Pazon’s lips slightly go up

. You have gone through it faster than expected.”

“…”

“You must have heard that my martial arts were born only for my greed.”

“ Yes.” “To

be precise

, I wanted to go beyond human limits.”

“…Limits… you mean

.

”
