20 – Cheolpi Donggi Valley – 3
The space marked by a curse is encroaching on the dark space of the valley.
Earth, air, cliff.
The Tomb of Swords is gradually being consumed by the barrier, and the environment begins to lose its original color.
Darkness is gray, sparkling light is red, and rocks are green.
Everything is a mess, and the world set by God is gradually turning into Harvey’s.
“Caw?”
“Kung!”
The three-legged sword that was shooting black flames at Unggeomgwi.
A bone dog was digging a hole nearby.
Everyone quickly ran to Harvey’s side.
There were no further distraction operations. As long as the perception reduction barrier was activated, Woonggeomgwi could not set Harvey as a target.
” ..ha. “
A cold chill travels up Harvey’s esophagus and sprays out into the world.
It is said that the medium of the human vision reduction barrier is Harvey, that is, the caster of the spell and the object affected are also Harvey.
That’s why Harvey had to endure the countless cold waves with his bare body.
Of course, the amber necklace around Harvey’s neck reduced the recoil of the barrier.
Still, deploying a barrier this wide would result in a large recoil.
shaking.
Concentration, my mind had already reached the peak of unconsciousness, but my body was screaming like an evil spirit.
The whole body begins to tremble, and the muscles contract and expand repeatedly.
In order to somehow overcome the cold, my body automatically started exercising and raising my body temperature.
The chill caused by the recoil was not easy for Harvey to overcome.
“Sooooo…”
Woonggeomgwi also lost his goal while drooling.
The pitiful Daedo’s life had lost its direction, and his aimless steps could only move forward without any help.
However, the deadly force of the sword that wanted to cut something continued to shake the body of the Unggeomgwi.
Kill it, kill it, cut it and take its blood.
Cut off the skin and prove the meaning of your existence.
All kinds of curse words filled the valley.
Huh!
Even though the goal was lost, the purpose contained in the sword did not disappear.
Unggeomgwi’s right arm, filled with the desire to cut something, hits the ground loudly.
Coo!
An earthquake shakes the valley.
Old dust and iron powder are scattered everywhere.
The disappointment of not being able to find the goal and the despair of not being able to cut down the flesh began to dominate Unggeomgwi’s mind.
The sense of loss that could kill him at any time drove Woonggeomgwi crazy, like a child belittling a toy that could break at any time.
Couuuck!
Wow!
A shabby greatsword destroys the valley.
Stalactites and stone chunks continued to fall from the cliff, and the floor was already stained with the marks of the sword that the sword had passed through.
“Golgyeon.”
“Kung!”
“It’s in a hole.”
When the dragon started going crazy, Harvey looked at the dog and gave an order.
There was no way to catch a giant running rampant like that any longer.
A situation where madness eats up self-control, and nature eats reason.
Common sense lines no longer apply.
To catch a crazy monster, a more crazy method was needed.
“Kkkkkkkk!”
Two bone dogs hide themselves in a hole they dug following Harvey’s orders.
Although there was only empty darkness where the pupils should be, the dogs were looking at their owner, Harvey, with concern.
However, Harvey’s expression was full of confidence.
Although he was receiving the full price for opening the Barok barrier, Harvey raised his eyebrows at the victory that was to come.
“We move slowly too, three-legged crow.”
“Caw?”
“If we hold out here any longer, we will be crushed to death first.”
Percussion!
As soon as Harvey finished speaking, a boulder fell on his head, and the three-legged crow spread its wings and knocked the boulder away.
The valley is now in ruins due to the Unggeomgwi going crazy.
Dust and iron powder consumed the air, and the ground was no longer flat.
Jerk, jerk.
Harvey and the three-legged crow slowly begin to move away, leaving behind the rampaging Demon Demon.
Because of the awareness-reducing barrier, I can’t move quickly.
Nevertheless, Harvey and the three-legged cow slowly moved toward the hole dug by the dogs.
“Wait here.”
“Caw?”
At Harvey’s words, the three-legged crow tilted his head and expressed doubt.
It’s just a simple matter of moving, so why is this person so anxious? It was an expression like this.
Harvey must have read the three-legged crow’s thoughts, and he smiled and pointed to the world outside the pit.
“It’s crazy to run outside when all this chaos is going on, and it’s also crazy to break the barrier.”
“Caw.”
A three-legged crow flapping its wings as if it understood Harvey’s words.
From noble mtl dot com
It was fortunate that the barrier was still maintained. If the effect of the barrier disappeared, it was clear that Unggeomgwi would immediately attack.
The barrier was maintained, but Woonggeomgwi had to make the valley a bit more of a mess.
” and. “
Harvey continues talking while pointing to countless pieces of metal dust and dust floating in the air.
“Don’t you think the air is too thick?”
“,..caw?”
The three-legged cow rolled its eyes as if it was resentful of its owner, who had been talking incomprehensibly from earlier.
Kwaang!!!
Against the background of the commotion, Harvey calmly gathered himself and continued speaking.
“Three-legged crow.”
“…?”
“Give that guy a hit of black salt.”
Harvey urges the three-legged crow who doesn’t know why.
Although embarrassed by Harvey’s continued antics from earlier, the three-legged crow seemed to understand for now, creating black flames and shooting them out of the pit.
The target is the Unggeomgwi that has lost its purpose and runs amok.
As the lump of black flame went out of the pit, the heated space began to distort.
The haze had warped the way I saw things.
“Come on in.”
Harvey grabs the wings of the three-legged crow that sent the black flame flying out and hurriedly pulls it inside.
“Caw!”
Because of this, the three-legged crow looked strange in Harvey’s arms, but Harvey was focused elsewhere.
Slurp.
As soon as the black flame came out of the pit, Harvey quickly sealed the entrance of the pit with the accumulated dirt.
With the barrier that had been in effect released, Harvey squeezed out his spiritual power and completely blocked the gap at the entrance.
“Caw!”
When the three-legged crow gets scared by Harvey’s actions and tries to run away.
Wow!!!
An unprecedented explosion covered the entire valley.
*******************
Dust explosion.
A phenomenon in which very fine combustible particles spread in the air at an appropriate concentration cause sudden chain oxidation-combustion and explosion with only a slight spark or heat.
This doesn’t happen often when the humidity is high or the oxygen concentration is low, but this valley is a dry and desolate place with dust flying to begin with.
In addition, the Unggeomgwi was running wild, spreading hidden dust and iron powder everywhere.
It was a natural fact that even a small amount of heat could cause a dust explosion.
He made Woonggeomgwi go crazy through the barrier, and ordered the dogs to dig a hole to tie Woonggeomgwi’s feet.
It was all a smokescreen operation to prevent a dust explosion.
Compared to a gas explosion, a dust explosion has a lower combustion speed and explosion pressure, but the combustion time is long and the generated energy is large, so the destructive power and degree of combustion are high.
Therefore, the probability of Unggeomgwi walking around with all limbs intact during this explosion was very low.
” also. “
When I broke through the sealed entrance and went outside, acrid smoke was sweeping everywhere, and sparks that had not yet dissipated were dancing in the air.
Even the high-ranking fire magic used by Orphée in the story would not be able to exert this level of power.
“Caw!”
Perhaps bothered by the smoke spreading everywhere, the three-legged crow flapped its wings to create wind.
Thanks to this, all the smoke near Harvey and the Three-Legged Crow cleared, and the surrounding scene gradually began to come into view.
“Sooooo…..”
When the smoke cleared, the first thing I saw was the appearance of the Beheaded Sword Demon letting out a bizarre groan.
The muscles of the legs, which seemed to have no strength to support them anymore, were burned and shriveled, and the shabby greatsword was stuck in the ground, held together by the Unggeomgwi’s right arm.
The great sword, which was full of vitality, seemed as if it could not escape the effects of the explosion, as it cracked here and there and looked as if it might break at any moment.
In addition, the valley, which had been shrouded in darkness, was leaking light through the gap in the ceiling due to the explosion.
The swords that were used to curse were also broken or completely scorched by fire.
A gruesome sight, the three-legged crow looked at Harvey in awe.
In the eyes of the three-legged crow, Harvey seemed like a capable person capable of causing such a huge explosion.
“Kung!”
And in the distance, the ground shook and the dogs’ heads jerked! and jumped out.
The dogs looked at the four directions that had turned into hell, and cried. Then, when they found Harvey, they quickly jumped out and ran to him.
Twirling its bony tail was a bonus.
Harvey patted the heads of the dogs that ran towards him and began to think about the treatment of that giant swordsman.
There was no income to leave it as is.
However, there is no reason to collect it with food spirits, so it is an ambiguous situation to manage.
“I can’t help it.”
As if there was nothing he could do, Harvey clicked his tongue and slowly approached the groaning Demon Demon.
“Ugh!”
As Harvey approached, the giant sword-ghost let out a ferocious howl and became a warning.
Without hesitation, Harvey placed his hand on Unggeomgwi’s body.
Scratchy skin, open wounds.
A beautiful monster born under the curse of swords that are not in their original form, the Beheaded Sword Demon.
Although he was freed from the curse of the great sword and now had a free body, his body was still made up of numerous swords.
I was stabbed by a sword that still retains memories of its sharpness, and blood flowed from my finger.
Harvey didn’t care and began to gather spiritual energy into his palm.
“I will release you.”
The goal is to be the master of the Chamsuunggeomgwi.
In order to get rid of the curse and the curse that came from the sword, Harvey decided to personally kill the sword demon.
Returning to the present world like this not only did not yield results compared to the investment, but it was clear that if the Great Sword Demon was left alone like this, he would be resurrected as an intact Great Sword Demon again due to the curse of the sword.
In that case, it would have been more beneficial to curse the Unggeomgwi and collect it as a food spirit.
Harvey closed his eyes and began to reorganize the spiritual power he had gathered into a spell to remove the curse.
I used up a lot of spiritual power to create the barrier earlier, but now was the only opportunity to turn Unggeomgwi into a food spirit.
Harvey decided to invest again.
“Haeju (解呪).”
Shoooooooo!
As he muttered some starter words for Hae-Ji, a sticky and malicious curse began to attack Harvey’s body.
I want MC to say “Domain Expansion” one day.
