269 – Heavenly Demon Gimlin
Pillar.
It was a huge pillar that could support a mansion alone.
There are dozens of them. Perhaps hundreds gathered together to support the sky-high ceiling.
It was a vast Daejeon, as if the world had been contained in space.
With a little bit of exaggeration, the level is sufficient to accommodate all the warriors of the martial arts and demon religions.
In such a battle, about ten people were filling the seats.
Compared to the scale of Daejeon, it was truly a small number.
However, their presence was sufficient to fill the vast space of Daejeon.
Head of the Demonic Cult.
Elder of the Demonic Cult
Each of them was a pillar supporting the huge group called the Demonic Cult, so it was safe to say that they were the Demonic Cult.
There is no place in the world where their great name does not reach, so how could they not fill this Daejeon?
More than anything.
She was here now.
She was sitting with an arrogant posture on a high chair that afforded a panoramic view of Daejeon.
“…”
Those transparent white eyes looked down at the masters of the Demonic Cult.
No one dared look at them like that.
Except for her.
An old man came out of her group and bowed down towards her.
Dark wrinkles,
Whitening body hair.
However, he was an old man who did not give off any sense of age, but rather exuded a strong spirit.
An absolute master who once wanted to have the world at his feet –
‘Kangnyeo, the leader of the cult’, was him.
“See you, the leader.”
Then he got down on his knees.
Now he was no longer a religious leader.
The reason is simple.
The rule is that the leader of the Demonic Cult must be the number one member of the Demonic Cult.
The religious leader was defeated.
Therefore, the person who defeated him was the new master of the Demonic Cult.
That’s the young woman he’s kneeling on right now-
It was Kim Lin.
“I guess preparations are complete.”
Gimlin stood up from her seat without waiting for her answer.
Transparent white hair that fell below her ankles, combined with her long robe, embroidered her bottom.
“…I won’t need this anymore.”
Gimlin looked at her own long hair with her eyes, finding it unwieldy, and then-
Suddenly.
She raised the blade of her hand and cut it off.
“Ah…!”
The masters of the Demonic Cult sighed.
Magic, the martial art of the Demonic Cult, had the property of becoming purer in mind and body as the level of achievement increased.
Her hair, which had a purity that was close to perfection, was proof that she had reached a level of excellence in her magic that was unprecedented in the history of the Demonic Cult.
Therefore, it was the pride of the Demonic Cult.
But when I cut it off as if I were disposing of an ugly object, how could I not sigh?
“Sir… !”
Vice leader Kang Ryeo couldn’t stand it anymore and opened her mouth.
“Why have you let go of our school and this world?” !”
Gimlin was a strong man who could not be compared to even throughout the long history of the Demonic Cult.
The best person in the world was her words that existed for her.
In fact, not long ago, she left the Demonic Cult’s headquarters as if she were going out for a drink.
With her path, she made all of the top ten martial arts masters, including the martial leader, kneel before her.
If she were to put her mind to it, she would immediately achieve the unification of the Demonic Cult, a long-held wish of the Demonic Cult.
However.
Instead of taking her world, Gimlin chose the opposite path.
Gim Lin, who returned from Wulin, immediately gave an order to the magicians of the Demonic Cult.
He discovered that he had discovered a passageway to the other world, and was told to figure out how to open it.
With the full support of the religious leader, the magicians were able to quickly achieve results.
That was when the passage to the other world was about to open.
The religious leader declared.
He said he would leave this world.
And that he would never come back again.
“How…!”
Vice-leader Kang Ryeo could not understand such behavior of the leader.
“The entire world is in the palm of your hand, and all you have to do is hold it. But how…! You just let it go!?”
It was a difficult question to which Kangryeo could not possibly come up with an answer.
However, Kim Lin indifferently said it as if it was a simple problem that did not need to be thought about.
“Because it’s boring.”
“…Yes?”
“I’m not interested in games that I’ve already mastered.”
“Game…?”
Gimlin.
Before she was a martial arts person who was transferred and awakened to the constitution of the body of heaven and earth and was reborn as the supreme being of the Demonic Cult –
He was a modern-day professional gamer.
When she was transferred, she did not immediately awaken to the physical constitution of Cheonmujiche and follow her path of defeat.
She was truly lost in a world where the common sense she knew did not apply.
She experienced death several times.
I was afraid.
But she wanted to survive more than that.
Kimlin tried her best to survive and did everything she could.
This world.
It was at that time that martial arts and martial arts were recognized as one game.
This world is a virtual reality game,
I am targeting that.
By thinking like that, I wanted to forget my fears and awaken my confidence.
Gimlin himself knew it.
What a ridiculous plan this is.
However, at the time, Kim Lin was in such a desperate position that if she saw even a rotten rope, she wanted to grab it in a hurry.
And, surprisingly, her plan worked quite well.
Is it because my feelings of desperation have increased?
Once we recognized martial arts and martial arts as a single target and game, we were able to approach it much more calmly and boldly.
I was able to face the sword coming towards me with my eyes open.
I was able to keep my cool at the crossroads of life and death.
I overcame several hardships like that.
That’s how I realized the constitution of the body of heaven and earth.
That’s how I realized martial arts.
In this way, she was reborn as the best person in the world.
The moment the Murim leader kneeled before her eyes.
Gimlin felt as if a [GAME END] Window appeared before her eyes.
At that moment, two feelings coexisted in her mind.
That’s it.
But it’s not enough.
The leader of the Demonic Cult.
The best person in the world.
Cheonma.
Her flame, her winning spirit that made her alive and moving, has not yet been extinguished.
She wanted more ‘games’.
This is the martial arts forest.
The biggest element of martial arts is martial arts.
Kim Lin completely mastered martial arts.
“There is no one here strong enough to make my heart beat.”
That’s why Kim Lin left Murim and wanted to return to modern times.
Of course, there was no guarantee that she would meet a new strongman just because she returned to modern times.
Rather, the probability was very slim –
Well.
That was something I had to think about at the time.
Because the reason to return to modern times was not just to crave new games, new strongmen, and new fights.
‘I miss you.’
Hometown itself was a place worth returning to.
“So, I’m going back.”
***
Kim Lin’s expectations were met. She
The Earth, which gave her an abnormal phenomenon called ‘transition to another world’, was transformed into a world quite different from the one she remembered.
‘Mana’ is a power similar to but different from inner power.
And many strong people who handle it.
It was definitely a new and interesting ‘game’ for Gimlin.
Of course, the game was not perfect.
First of all, it was too static.
Is this because information spread among the returnees that the gate that occurred when Kim Rin returned was of the largest size ever?
Kim Lin had not even practiced martial arts or martial arts even once, but she became known as someone who should not be messed with.
When she realized the physical constitution of Cheonmu and was able to imitate all martial arts by just seeing them once, it was the complete opposite of the situation in which all the martial arts people, who could not even see others imitating their martial arts, ran to their deaths.
For example.
Unlike the martial arts world, which was full of fighting madmen, Hyundai was very rational.
No one wanted to play games with Gimlin.
But again, the pride of being the best in the world did not allow Gimlin to fight first.
The powerful people in this world are considered powerful.
S-class hunters and returnees.
From the Heavenly Demon’s point of view, they were all weak.
And the challenge is always the rights of the weak.
The role of the best people in the world was to maintain their position at the highest level so that they could challenge at any time.
So Kim Lin was worried.
How do you get them to fight against you?
This was the reason why Kimlin joined the outer guild ‘Wrong Choice’.
Since it is at the peak of the Demonic Cult, which is treated as the axis of evil, it is like the martial arts masters who fought on their own.
He thought that if he maintained the top of the Outer Guild, which was treated as an axis of evil, the fight would come on its own.
From Noble mtl dot com
-Who is the owner of this place?
-What are you?
-Look, it’s you.
-Eh?
Gimlin instantly defeated ‘Golden Fox Ran’, the master of the existing Outer Guild ‘Wrong Choice’, and became the head of the guild.
Although she was the boss of the guild, she never interfered in the guild’s internal affairs and only lent her name and face.
Gimlin’s plan has progressed steadily since then.
The wrong choice grew in power day by day thanks to Kim Lin’s halo.
As this happened, the wariness towards Kim Lin in the public grew even more.
Now Kim Lin was a dangerous person who was being watched closely by countries around the world.
There was nothing strange about when the punitive force was sent.
Also, Kim Lin did not stop there.
Based on her experience in the martial arts forest, she knew another way to inspire hunters to win.
It was technology theft.
If Kim Lin perfectly imitates or further develops the martial arts skills that other martial artists have honed throughout their lives due to his natural ability –
They all liked each other so much that they attacked Gimlin as they died.
That was the reason why the top 10 martial arts masters, including the martial leader, applied to Kim Rin for her sasaengyeol.
-Is it mana?
I guess it was also the car that made me thirsty for a new game.
Gimlin became absorbed in mana and she began to hone it.
The abilities of the awakened people she has conquered so far have reached dozens.
Now, she was surpassing the realm of her S-class purely with the talent of mana, without the power of martial arts.
It was a pretty fulfilling day.
Of course, I couldn’t help but feel bored.
Because all Kimlin wanted was a big game where she could hit everything on her own.
But what can we do?
There is no such strong person in sight.
I don’t see a strong person who can give me the right to challenge myself as a weak person.
Then-
The incident happened.
A gate of unprecedented scale appears.
According to stories that are often heard, the owner of the gate was probably a returnee.
The gate was clearly larger than Cheonma-Gimlin’s.
That suggested one possibility to Gimlin.
Maybe.
The returnee may have stronger power than himself.
Sensing her potential, Gimlin immediately left her residence.
Based on information and intuition, we headed to a place where the owner of the gate might be.
So now.
We arrived in front of the hotel where the returnee and his group were staying.
“… “
Kim Lin quietly looked up at the hotel.
One room caught her eye.
A strange energy that I had never encountered before surrounded the place.
It seemed like some kind of barrier.
“There you are.”
It was at that time that Kim Lin tried to take her steps without hesitation.
“Hmm?”
Kim Lin’s head turned.
She looked up at the sky opposite the hotel room she had just looked up into.
There was a huge golden dragon showing off its majesty.
“Hoo.”
Gimlin knew what it was.
One of the returnees was the Dragon King Atlas, one of America’s strongest awakeners.
Jennifer mentioned the place where the owner of the memory she read was located, and the Dragon King immediately headed to that place accompanied by Hwarin Lee and Chariot.
The two returnees arrived at the hotel in search of one returnee and ran into them.
“Hey, what is that!? Dragon!?”
“The gate is open!?!”
“Run away!!!!!”
“aaah!!!”
“Now, wait a minute, isn’t that that? Dragon King?”
“You crazy guy, is that the problem now!? “Just jump out!!!”
Boom!
Soon, the giant body of the Dragon King landed in front of the hotel.
The dragon’s body gradually became smaller.
Atlas returned to her human form and looked directly at her.
Chariot, Lee Hwa-rin, Mikhail, and Jennifer, who were riding on his back, landed on the floor one after another.
Jennifer.
Atlas looked at his subordinate, who was still unable to come to his senses from the side effects of using his powers.
She had said.
“White snake… “
Snake there-
I saw a very huge white snake.
Atlas recalled those words and looked at the being in front of him.
Cheonma.
Her transparently white hair and eyes.
“It was you…” “
A considerable amount of concern appeared on the Dragon King’s face.
If the target of Jennifer’s attempted mental interference was Cheonma, then her subordinate would have dared to show his teeth to Cheonma.
“… “
Gimlin tilted her head inwardly.
What is Lee Chi talking about now?
I don’t know what it was, but it was clear that he was under some kind of illusion.
And Kim Lin had no intention of correcting that.
Misunderstandings often become the starting point of fights.
There was an arrogant look in the transparent white eyes.
The Heavenly Demon raised her head slightly and looked down at the Dragon King.
At the same time, golden flames rose around her.
When Atlas transformed into the form of a dragon, he saw the power he used and imitated it.
“… !”
It may have been crude to be an imitation, but the perfection was so amazing that it could have been copied at a glance.
This is enough to create a kind of anxiety and humiliation in the other person.
“How dare you…” !”
Just like in Moorim.
It was a provocation that would no longer exist for an ‘expert’ like Atlas.
For the Dragon King, it was truly a sudden provocation.
However, he was an emperor who ruled a world in name and name.
No matter how sudden the provocation was, it could not be taken lightly.
It was the moment when Atlas was willing to respond to the Heavenly Demon’s provocation.
“Now, wait a minute!”
Chariot shouted urgently.
“Hey, Atlas! “Not this one!”
“… What?”
“The person I asked to read your memories was someone else, not this person!”
“… “
Atlas was taken aback by Chariot’s words.
Is there anyone else besides the Heavenly Demon who can do something like that?
“It’s good anyway.”
Well, it seems like a good thing now.
The reason Atlas was provoked by the Heavenly Demon was entirely because of the effective performance she showed just now.
“Gimlin. “I would like to ask you about the meaning of that action just now.”
“It doesn’t mean anything. “I just tried it because it seemed possible.”
“Kuuu, keahahahahaha!!!”
Rattle-
Cars parked nearby were shaking.
The surrounding area vibrated as if trembling with fear at the light containing the Dragon King’s power.
“You bold girl. It looks like you want to have a big fight with this body, huh? I’ll accept it. “Well, try this one too.”
The Dragon King’s large body began to emit a brilliant golden glow.
The eyes take on the sharp look of a reptile, and the huge body is covered with scales.
“There’s nothing you can’t do.”
As if in response, the Heavenly Demon’s body also emits golden brilliance.
The worst was about to happen when the two returnees were about to fight in the middle of the city.
“Now, wait! Both of you calm down-“
“Master Chariot. “Your ability is probably this, right?”
“… !”
The Heavenly Demon reads the nature of power from Chariot, who is trying to dissuade him, and follows suit.
Chariot and Lee Hwa-rin were scared inside.
The Heavenly Demon was not only provoking Atlas, but he was also provoking himself and was about to engage in a two-on-one battle.
Ewha Womans University?
No. Maybe three to one.
If you look at those eyes wandering around Mikhail.
‘What a madman… !’
Against this crazy person.
And will persuasion work against the excited Dragon King?
The worst thing of all is-
‘Damn… !’
Although I knew how foolish it would be to be caught in a provocation in this situation, I felt like I would be caught in that provocation.
The magician’s near-perfect imitation of the power he had devoted his all to honing contained such destructive power.
Lee Hwa-rin gritted her teeth.
She had blood spurting to her temples.
“Damn, Master!?”
It was a moment when Lee Hwa-rin, who had been watching Chariot’s agony next to her, was about to lose her mind.
“Everyone?”
A leaky voice, unsuitable for the extremely tense atmosphere, intervened.
“I’m sorry for pouring cold water on a heated atmosphere. Could you please hold the dance party somewhere else? “My group is staying nearby.”
“… “
“… “
The Dragon King and the Heavenly Demon were literally dumbfounded.
What kind of idiot would get involved in this atmosphere?
He was a man with squinted eyes and a goofy look.
“You, you, you…” !”
But at that time, Mikhail, who had been lost the entire time, suddenly returned to his soul and rushed at him.
“Give it back! Give it back!!! “My weapons!!!”
“Hmm? “Are you sure what you’re talking about?”
It was the Dragon King who responded to that series of flows.
“No way…” ?”
The person who stole Mikhail’s nine weapons?
“… ?”
Cheonma, sensing a strange atmosphere, also turned her attention to the man.
I don’t know who it is, but it looks like those arrogant returnees are interested –
It was clear that he too was an unusual person.
He just happened to be good.
Dragon King.Chariot.Mikhail.
One more thing there.
This will be a very enjoyable game.
“Hey, look at this.”
“?”
The Heavenly Demon immediately tried to attract the man to the game board and repeat to him what he had done to Chariot and Atlas.
Read the nature of the power he uses and then imitate it to provoke.
In this way, the Heavenly Demon read the nature of the man’s power –
“… “
Failed to imitate.
Cheonma’s furious expression hardened at this first-time failure.
Sigh.
A mischievous smile appeared on the lips of the man watching.
“Huh? “What do you mean?”
