62 The Battle of the Moon (2)
Wolwanggung is located at the very center of Myowangseong.
As it is the center of Suinhae, the current Wolwanggung Palace was quite quiet, unlike usual where many uninhabited people were busy walking around.
That’s because of the Wolwang Battle held at the Daeyeon Mujang.
And towards the Wolwang Palace,
slurp-
A group of hordes were approaching with hidden and invisible magic.
puck! Whoops!
A group of soldiers who guarded the entrance to the palace, without making a single sound, dealt with them at once and immediately entered the inside.
The true identity of the group was a group of warriors.
‘ I wouldn’t have thought of this.’
Claire’s face, moving rapidly in front of such a group, was hardened.
The reason she and her party are here now was because of Zion’s instructions, but at the same time, she also decided that this movement was necessary.
‘You have to find it and destroy it as soon as possible.’
With that thought, what Claire came up with was the relics obtained from the tomb of the first ‘real’ beast king.
The martial arts of the first Beast King and his body.
Among them, what made her so urgent was none other than the body of the first Beast King.
Although the period of activity is old enough to be close to the age of mythology, it is not well preserved, but even from a fragmentary record, the power of the first beast king was similar to or greater than that of the first warrior Magnus Flare, who is said to be the strongest in recorded imperial history.
Before returning, Wolbyeokcheon tried to gain its power using the perfectly preserved body of the first Beast King, and eventually achieved its goal with the help of a demon.
‘ The power of such Wolbyeokcheon almost reached a large supply.’
There was a reason Claire couldn’t think of such an important event.
The time when Wolbyeokcheon gained the power of the first Beast King was just before the empire was destroyed by the demon, so he did not have the energy to pay attention to it at that time.
In fact, not long after that, I went back to the past.
‘ Considering the timing, the research may not have been completed yet… … .’
So many things had already changed from before the return, and the speed was accelerating beyond comparison.
So it was right to move as fast as possible.
“ Claire, where should I go?”
In the meantime, after dealing with all the uninhabited people on the first floor, Lane, who was standing in front of the three passageways leading up to the upper floor, asked Claire.
“ No, you have to go down, not up.”
A warrior who shook his head and approached Lane.
“ Yes? But doesn’t this palace have a basement?”
“ It’s not that there isn’t. It is hidden.”
Claire, who answered in that way to Elesis expressing her doubts, began to infuse enormous mana into the wall that existed between the passages.
Ded Ded Dude!
Along with that, the vibrations that start from the inside of the wall.
Soon after,
Quad Duck!
I thought I could hear the sound of something breaking, and as it was, the wall cracked, revealing a passage leading down from there.
“ From now on, I will destroy everything I see.”
The hero who finished speaking in such a cold voice went down first.
Then, the moment when even the faces of the party with their stiff expressions disappear completely, Kiaah!
From the inside of the passage, an enormous amount of magic began to burst out with a horrifying scream.
* * *
bum bum, bum bum.
The sound of footsteps fills the Great Hall.
Even though it was very small, the sound of footsteps that clearly echoed in my ears was very strange, but there was something else that shook the eyes of the countless uninhabited people surrounding the gymnasium.
That is, there was only one representative who walked out from the Crown Prince’s side.
It was a situation that did not make any sense at all.

Moon battle.
It was literally a battle between kings, and it was an important place to decide the next Beast King.
But you’re not kidding, you’re only sending out one representative?
“ Did you even go crazy?”
In a way, it was natural to see these sounds coming out of the mouths of the soldiers who were watching.
together,
“ Human… … And there’s someone I’ve never heard of.”
Since the first human, not even a beast, came out as a proxy, it was inevitable that the Crown Prince had given up on the Wolwang fight from their point of view.
which,
“ What do you think?”
The same was true of Wolbyeokcheon.
he knew
How desperate his nephew and Crown Prince Wolhaun is.
This Wolwang fight was the only hope left for such Wolhaun.
‘ But why… … Did you do this?’
A situation that is never understood.
Of course, Wolbyeokcheon knew that the dark-haired man walking out of the Crown Prince’s camp was the wizard Zeon Harness who led the last impossible battle to victory.
However, even taking that into account, it was impossible to grasp the intention of sending out only one person.
‘ No matter how low the level of the rebels themselves, it would be better than not sending them out. Moreover, there must be some unknown guys who have recently joined.’
With that thought, Wolbyeokcheon looked at Wolhaun across from the theater, but unlike before, she could not read the expression on her face hidden behind the mask.
‘ I don’t know what you’re doing, but… … If that’s the case, nothing will change.’
In the end, he didn’t get much of an answer, so when he finished thinking like that and turned his gaze again,
‘ Is this right? … .’
The Crown Prince also kept his gaze fixed on Shion’s back, and he was trying to hide his anxious eyes.
In her mind, the contents of the last meeting before coming to Myowangseong began to come to mind naturally.
– I go out alone in the proxy war.
These were the words that came out of Zion’s mouth as soon as the meeting started.
– What nonsense… … !
– What’s the reason?
After calming Hwa Gang-jin, who strongly resisted him, Wol Haun asked Shion.
– Was it because of the low level of our resistance force? Of course I know how strong you are, but… … Still, wouldn’t it be better to fill in the numbers rather than alone?
– No, you guys have other things to do, so focus on that and stock up on your strength.
– If it’s something else to do… … .
– Were you really thinking of just playing the monthly battle?
– What?
– If this side wins the Wolwang battle, you probably didn’t think Wolbyeokcheon would admit it and step down.
-… … .
The leaders of the Resistance, including Wolhaun, could not answer Shion’s question.
Because they didn’t think so.
– So, I’m preparing ahead of time.
– What contrast are you talking about?
– Prepare for battle.
-… … !
– The battle will probably start at the end of the Moon Wang Battle. Or did it start before that?
Shion smiled and continued speaking to the chief who looked at him with trembling eyes without saying anything.
– The day of the month of Wangwang. The water-in-hae war will come to an end.
‘ I’m sure one of the two camps will end today.’
With that thought in mind, Wol Ha-woon, who ended the recollection, looked at Sion, who was confronted with the first representative of the Beast King.
‘ I wish you good luck.’
Whether or not he knew that the Crown Prince was praying while looking at him like that, Sion was looking at the tiger beast in front of him with subdued eyes.
Falundo (破輪刀) Brilliant Stream.
As a warrior who used the Tao as his nickname, he was not included in the Twelve Seas, but was evaluated as having skills comparable to or superior to him.
And even in the eyes of Shion, Hokkwaecheon had that level of skill.
‘I’m sure there are more strong people in Suinhae than other places.’
That is why Sion remembered that Su In-hae was the most difficult and difficult to take over the world during the Eternal Age.
The topography consisted of islands and seas, but the main factor was that the number of strong people was superior to other regions due to the unique mana technique of Mugong.
If it were not for the closed nature, and the races and cultures that are divided innumerable within it, a place with enough power to target the entire world.
It was probably unknown to the Empire, but there was a possibility that the sea and even a sky-class unmanned man could exist in the water in the sea.
‘ That’s why it’s one of the places you should never go to the Magic Station.’
at that time,
“ You are that wizard.”
A low voice, like a carnivore’s cry, came out from the mouth of the cheerful champ in front of Zion.
“ I heard that you alone reversed the battle that took place in the Sea of Death not long ago?”
Even though there was a person in front of him who reversed a battle that could never be reversed, there was no fear in Ho Kwae-cheon’s eyes when he asked that question.
It was because he was confident in his own abilities, and this was a one-on-one duel, not a majority versus many.
‘ No matter how strong he is, he’s just a magician.’
It is a well-known fact that wizards are extremely disadvantaged in such duels.
Even if various methods were devised to compensate for the shortcomings, the essence did not change.
On the other hand, the paryundo that Ho Kwaecheon himself learned was one-on-one specialized martial arts.
So the starting point had to be completely different.
“ I am not a wizard.”
“ Khahaha! That’s a funny joke.”
At Sion’s words, Ho Kwae-cheon burst into laughter.
“ Personally, I have no ill will towards the Crown Prince and the Resistance, but there are circumstances in this case as well. Seeing that there was only one person out anyway, it seems like they gave up on the monthly battle… … Then, finish it as quickly as possible so that you don’t get hurt.”
Did those words become a signal?
“ Now let’s start the first duel!”
A cry that signaled the start came out of the presenter’s mouth.
with him,
Tuhwa hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha
An unbelievably strong wave that bursts out of the whole body of Hokkaecheon.
he knew
That you should never give time to a wizard.
Therefore, before the duel, all the muscles of the body were tensed in order to rush in a straight line.
It takes 0.03 seconds for the energy gathered in advance to spread to all the muscles of the lower body, including the thighs.
After that, the time to squat slightly is 0.03 seconds.
It was the moment when his new model, who had finished all preparations in 0.06 seconds, was about to jump out toward Zion.
That moment,
“ That word.”
With a single voice in my ear,
“ That’s what I want to say.”
he could see
The figure of Sion smiling while standing right in front of him who is about to kick the floor with his toes.
‘ uh… … !’
Kwajik!
Seeing this, Shion’s hand that reached out before his eyes widened even pierced his chest and smashed his heart.
“ How… … .”
After staring blankly at Shion’s hand that had pierced his chest like that, Ho Kwae-cheon died without finishing his words.
dump.
His corpse fell to the floor helplessly.
and with him,
… … .
Surrounded by tens of thousands of uninhabited soldiers, the entire arsenal froze.
It was so quiet that even the sound of breathing could not be heard.
What the hell just happened?
It happened so quickly that I didn’t even realize it.
The only thing they saw was that the new form of Shion disappeared from the spot as soon as it started, and then reappeared with a hand in Ho Kwae-cheon’s chest.
A straight-line rush without any finesse, followed by a simple sweep.
“ Next.”
With those two movements alone, an emotionless voice flowed out of Shion’s mouth, who finished the exhilarating stream, which is said to be one of the top-ranked warriors.
“… … All, please enter the next opponent!”
Only then did he come to his senses and, with a trembling voice, the host opened his mouth while looking at the beast king’s camp.
This time, a horseman with a chain scythe in the shape of a half-moon wrapped around his forearms began to climb over the gymnasium.
Unlike Ho Kwae-cheon a while ago, his hardened face clearly showed that he was very nervous.
Half-moon meat (半月殺) Ma Chungik
His skills were not inferior at all, or even better, compared to Ho Kwae-chun a while ago, but there was a reason why he was so nervous.
Because of the blow that Shion just showed.
‘ It was almost invisible to my eyes.’
Truly an electrifying speed.
It was far beyond even its own top speed, but nevertheless, Ma Choong-ik’s eyes were burning with fighting spirit.
‘ The first blow, if I can block that blow, it’s my turn after that.’
Obviously, as much as I put everything into speed, other things will inevitably fall.
He was going to take advantage of that gap.
“ Well then, let’s start the second duel!”
In the meantime, a cry to announce the start once again comes out of the host’s mouth.
‘ Come!’
At the same time, Ma Choong-ik lifted his chain scythe, which he had poured after hitting all the rivers, toward the predicted path.
blah blah blah!
A relentless aftermath bursting out with a loud roar.
‘ Stopped… … !’
It was the moment when Ma Choong-ik looked at Shion’s fist, which was stopped by his chain scythe, and his eyes lit up.
blah blah blah blah!
Shion’s fists, wrapped in the explosive darkness along with the growing laughter of Shion, smashed Ma Choong-ik’s chain scythe and stretched forward, Kwajik!
just popped his head off.
dump.
With the corpse of Ma Choong-ik falling to the floor of the gymnasium,
… … .
The gymnasium is once again dyed with silence.
one room.
This time, there was only one room.
How can I explain the scene where the warriors who could be the losers of a region die one after another without being able to block even a single blow?
There was no one here who could do such a thing, so the silence continued.
Once was a coincidence, but the second time was never a coincidence.
and,
“ The wizard… … Wasn’t it?”
A mutter of embarrassment flowed from the mouth of Wolbyeokcheon, who was staring at the scene with blank eyes like everyone else.
That Zeon harness is the two movements that humans made against their agents.
Those movements were absolutely not something a wizard could do.
‘ Unmanned… … It is also a warrior with a level of skill that cannot be properly estimated.’
It was time to change the plan that Wolbyeokcheon, who had changed the evaluation of Zion in his head, was about to change it.
“ Sir.”
Suddenly, one of the subordinates, who approached right next to him, called him with an urgent expression on his face.
“ Something happened.”
“ What happened?”
Suha whispers something to Wolbyokcheon’s ear right away in response to that question.
As Suha’s words continued, his expression, which had never been good, started to get more and more distorted.
and,
‘ Have you started?’
Shion, who glanced at the Beast King at the dance hall, smiled inside.
It seemed like he was doing a good job on the side of the hero’s party.
‘ Then I’ll have to turn my attention to this side a bit more.’
With that thought, from the mouth of Zion, who turned to the top where Wolbyeokcheon was sitting,
“ I have one suggestion.”
A low voice came out.
