King Woojang looked down at the young knight sitting across from him.
Tadak!
The sound of Noah’s landing that overlaps with his own placing a stone.
‘Does he make his own move as if he follows me immediately after I make a move?’
When King Ujang made a move after much thought, Noah made his own move as if he had waited.
‘Besides, the number of positions is so sharp that even a beginner can hardly think of it.’
Today is the first time Noah has encountered Seonsul Baduk.
Even if I already knew about general baduk, this was a level that didn’t make sense.
It was as if he was shouting out that he should leave it as soon as he finished reading the numbers.
There was no corner like a beginner in any of them.
‘Is this the power of the demonic eye?’
The Mystic Eye, a trait passed down from the imperial family.
If Noah was Enya’s son, he also inherited the royal family’s blood, so it was not unusual for Noah to awaken the Mystic Eye.
But this wasn’t something that could be explained by that alone.
‘No, the Mystic Eye only allows you to see the Aura with your own eyes. It is the child’s own ability to analyze the flow on the board and find the way.’
I couldn’t help but think that even though it was my first time playing seonsul baduk, I was able to play like that because I inherited Enya’s talent.
Things from 20 years ago flashed through King Woojang’s mind.
Enya was an incomprehensible figure to both humans and beastmen.
‘It is rather human… … .’
Witch Beast.
Beings that can feel and manipulate auras from birth without having to undergo any special training.
It’s a rude thought, but to be honest, it felt foreign.
‘But this child is not yet that far!’
The number of seonsul baduk is infinite.
There was no such thing as perfect numerology.
‘So, making moves like that without hesitation is just a psychological warfare to overturn disadvantages.’
It was clear that he was trying to induce a mistake by making it look as if he was looking at everyone.
‘Even a savior’s son cannot be pushed by a beginner!’
In fact, Noah was not able to hide his uncomfortable appearance even though he was making moves without hesitation.
Even the sitting posture and breathing are disturbed.
The fact that a knight of that caliber, even while engaging in psychological warfare, can’t pretend to be Taeyeon means that he’s having a hard time.
‘Even if I can’t treat you like a beginner, that doesn’t mean my advantage will disappear!’
King Wujang calmly played his part.
No matter how great Noah is, the tide has already turned.
He had no reason to lose.
“Now that time has been used up, King Woojang-nim will start counting down.”
‘What?’
After using up the time limit, when it is your turn, the rule that you must make a move within 30 seconds is countdown.
Woojangwang, who was immersed in concentration, was awakened when he heard that he had used up the time limit.
‘Is it because I was wasting my time playing against Regina-dono earlier?’
Regina put her move right away, without hesitation.
Because of this, Woojangwang took an attack to reduce Regina’s stamina and took his turn longer.
Thanks to this, King Woojang had the advantage, but the remaining time was rather more Noah.
‘Okay. I still have the advantage!’
But Noah was slowly recovering from the situation.
Even if he tried to focus only on his numbers without paying attention, his skills could not ignore the changing situation.
‘I’m being chased by beginners?’
Suddenly, a sticky, unpleasant feeling covered King Woojang’s entire body.
It wasn’t my mood.
In fact, more than 10 negative effects were already being applied to King Woojang.
‘Sometimes this… … !’
The match against Noah proceeded in the form of Noah trying to erase the negative effects and King Woojang interfering with it.
Noah has succeeded in eradicating many of the effects, but the decline has been markedly diminished for some time now.
King Woojang thought it was because he blocked it well, but the reality was different.
‘Could it be that he tried to attack, not defend, from the beginning!’
endure with tenacity
Noah didn’t completely abandon Regina’s operation.
Unlike Regina, who only endured and was beaten, Noah had the intention of ‘attacking’ while enduring.
Suddenly, the situation was not a situation where King Woojang was being chased, but a situation where he was really being chased.
Noah, who started taking over the extreme situation, was working on a big country with the intention of fighting and winning.
‘Still, the great country is already approaching the end. It just needs to be done before it’s reversed!’
Tadak!
It was King Ujang who put down the stone with strength to get rid of the delusion, but this time, Noah, without fail, followed closely behind him and started.
Hanbyeol, who was watching the match between the two, realized that the situation had changed.
“King Woojang, the constant, has turned to the defensive… … ?”
From noble mtl dot com.
In Seonju Baduk, the aura swayed and changed every time a move was made, so it was possible to roughly judge the situation even with Hanbyeol, who had a failing score in Seonju.
The look of Noah she sees is literally a storm.
Noah was breaking through all kinds of situations with a rapid advance of rage.
“Truly the master wins… … ?”
In the meantime, Noah continued to attack King Ujang, who had entered the countdown,
Taang!
Eventually the tide turned.
“From now on, I will attack.”
* * *
At the same time, Yongwanggung Palace.
“… … King Woojang is an unrivaled master among dragons, and he is amazing.”
Soyo was watching everything happening in the Dragon Palace through his clairvoyant eyes.
“Yeah, it’s all there for me.”
No matter how strong King Woojang is, he is 7 stars.
Compared to the 8-star Yongwang and the 9-star Shinsan, the difference in skill was so great that a great nation could not be established.
“By the way, Miss Thiu? Would you like to succeed in controlling it? I want to go eat.”
“Ugh, that’s not as easy as it sounds… … !”
Tiu groaned and grabbed his ears and tail.
Sangun’s blood.
When the power of the tiger beast mark imprinted in her genes was awakened, she grew cat-like ears and tail.
At the same time, the instincts that had been dormant for decades since they were born were awakened all at once and began to rampage.
Thanks to that, after eating Hwanghwatteok, she had to keep suppressing her urge with a dangerous consciousness.
“That, more than that, what the hell is this! My body has been hot and tickling since earlier… … .”
“He’s in heat.”
“yes??”
“It is the nature of living things to pass on generations. If there are no other problems, it is natural that the desire to reproduce comes first.”
“Bur, the desire to reproduce… … !”
In an instant, Tiu’s face turned red.
I wasn’t a child, so I wasn’t ashamed to hear those words.
Rather, it was because the figure of a person kept lingering in front of my eyes while my body was in this state.
‘If I do this, I’m like a pervert!’
“… … Would it have been better to have only two guest rooms?”
“No!”
In any case, if it’s really in heat, it won’t go back until it’s calmed down.
“How the hell am I supposed to control this… … !”
“There is nothing to be impatient about, as it will be the first time I am facing myself as a prisoner. I’m hungry, so it would be nice if I could get used to it quickly.”
“Do you have any tips?”
“You can’t just suppress it. It’s also you, so just accept it. Even so, you shouldn’t grab hold of anyone and mate with them.”
After doing this for several hours, Tiu had no choice but to realize.
this dragon king.
It is clear that the taste is half gone.
‘Rather than expecting anything from this person, I have no choice but to do something.’
His words and actions were like that, so even if he was a dragon king, he couldn’t be trusted.
Moreover, this power of Sangun’s blood is something that he must eventually control on his own.
After catching his breath, Tiu stood up and drew his sword.
“Please deal with me.”
“Wouldn’t it be too much for you just to control your instincts?”
“I find it easier to focus on this side.”
Soyo looked at Thiu in amazement, then untied the elated belt from his back and slammed it on the floor.
“You don’t have to use this to play around for a while, right?”
Lower your stance and spread your feet forward and backward.
Right hand close to eye level, left hand in front covering the flank and abdomen.
Soyo greeted Thiu with the same posture as in Seonsulbaktu’s textbook.
“Because most beastmen do not use weapons, they teach bare-handed combat. Make sure you learn too.”
“I use a sword, so I’m more interested in the Dragon King’s swordsmanship than that.”
“It is a martial art that started as self-defense, but it is not just a self-defense martial art. Also, the swordsmanship I use is ultimately based on this Seonsulbaktu. Even if you don’t have to learn all the seonjutsu, if you learn this much, you should be able to apply it to Miss Tiu’s swordsmanship.”
Seonsulbaktu was the world’s oldest combat technique using auras.
The swordsmanship of the 8th family, which had been studied for a long time, was not to this extent.
“A sight is not worth a thousand words. Try it once.”
At the same time, Soyo jumped at Tiu.
Tiu was aware of Soyo’s movements even when Sangun’s concentration was disrupted from fatigue.
‘Are you adapting to my physical abilities?’
The disturbance was limiting its power to exactly the same level as Tiu.
Thanks to this, Tiu was able to taste the pure skill difference through her movements.
The first attack is a frontal blow.
Thiu raised his sword to block it and tried to counterattack, but Soyo did not avoid confrontation with the sword even with his bare hands.
good!
Thiu’s sword is caught in Soyo’s hand.
No matter how much the knights felt the sword was a part of their body, in reality, it could not be freer than a bare hand with many joints and fingers.
Whoop!
Soyo released a large roundabout kick as if saying hello while holding onto the sword.
Whether you let go of your sword or get hit by a kick, whatever choice you choose is a loss.
However, Tiu chose the third option.
‘But I’m used to being caught swordsman!’
Every time he sparred with Noah, there were plenty of cases where he was caught using his sword for self-defense.
Tiu created an intangible sword on the surface of the sword and removed Soyo’s hand.
If she went wrong, the sword could have been damaged due to the collapse phenomenon, but her sword, the Holy Spirit Sword, was bestowed by the Emperor of the Luminary for the work of the Crescent Moon Saber.
“It’s a good mindset to make the most of what you have.”
Soyo bent over as if toppling over and kicked the ground with his hand.
If it was a knight’s physical ability, his arms could generate momentum comparable to his legs.
Soyo went back behind Thiu and put his foot on her back and pushed hard.
Boooooong!
Thiu’s body floated in the air.
“Once you get used to it, you should be able to block the same attack with your tail.”
It is impossible to evade in the air, so prepare for it by making a foothold with an intangible sword.
Following the knight’s common sense words, Tiu reflexively made an intangible sword and stopped, but it was a mistake.
Fain!
“Ah!”
When Tiu stopped, the distance between Soyo and Soyo, who jumped up after her, decreased in an instant.
The pursuit hit was faster than correcting his stance.
“Don’t see the world with your eyes, listen with your ears.”
“What is that… … .”
“The range of hearing with the ear is wider than the range of what the eye can see. If you are now, your ears are definitely better than your sixth sense. Feel the aura through sound.”
I wondered if that was a reasonable thing to say to myself who had lived as a human all my life.
However, the opponent is the Dragon King.
At least when it comes to the beastman’s ability, the other person must be right.
Tiu forced his eyes closed and focused on the sound.
“… … !”
The world has changed.
‘No, this is a change in my perception.’
Yonggung was a world located in a huge camp.
No matter where you looked, the flow of artificial aura was filling up everywhere, so it was a job to distinguish what you should see and what you don’t.
In other words, everything felt hazy like a dream.
It is truly a mysterious world of beasts.
On the other hand, when I recognized my surroundings through sound, everything became clear.
Taat!
Block Soyo’s knee kick while flipping over in the air.
I hurriedly reached out and couldn’t properly hold my fingers, so I ended up crushing them, but I knew the attack in advance.
“great. Like a Nightray student, he learns quickly.”
A calm voice without breath.
Tiu hurriedly pushed his opponent away and opened up the distance.
Soyo landed first and waited for Tiu to dismount.
“I think I got my senses, so shall we raise the tension?”
The amount of aura felt from Soyo doubled in an instant.
“I will beat you step by step until you can control your wildness.”
“yes?”
