146. Holy King
aa-!!!
The fist stopped right in front of the King’s eyes.
Wind pressure rose. The king’s hair fluttered wildly as he knelt down and stared at his fist.
The earth was overturned behind the king, and grass and trees were uprooted and blown away.
The fountain shattered, spray rose, and the windows of the castle shattered. The particles flew off and glistened in the sunlight.
It was the ultimate blow that even the commander of the corps, Berd, could not withstand, but the royal castle behind the Holy King did not collapse. It was thanks to Doyoon’s power control.
Doyoon raised his fist. The recoil brought a lot of pain, but I was able to move. The technique was not completely cast, so the recoil was greatly reduced.
The King Seong, who had been staring blankly into space, closed his eyes. Then I got up and took a deep breath.
“Whoa…”
As if he had some sort of realization after seeing what he had just seen, King Seong stood with his eyes closed for a long time.
Do-yoon stopped attacking. The King’s unusual reaction.
The surrounding servants thought Doyoon was an enemy, but the situation changed rapidly. They didn’t come out until the king’s order.
After a while, the King Seong opened his eyes.
His eyes were stronger than before. There must have been some progress with the recent one.
He looked down at Doyoon.
“…wasn’t it the demon king army?”
I don’t know the identity, but King Seong, who saw the god just now, was sure that Do-yoon was not the Demon King’s army.
The corps commander, Berd, who was observed to have used the same martial arts as the sage king, couldn’t believe the trust just now.
he said to the left.
“Call a healer, heal the author.”
“yeah.”
A few servants bowed their heads and ran to the castle.
Even though it was an absurd order to heal the enemy who had been fighting fiercely until just now, they did not raise any questions. because it’s a king It was great loyalty and trust.
Doyoon decided not to refuse sincerity. Although he has tremendous regenerative power of level 8 physical strength, his arm, which was damaged by overuse of the true Hecleus’s formula, was not at the level of regeneration alone.
Doyoon looked up at Seongwang and said.
“Let’s talk for a minute.”
At his short words, the eyes of the servants all turned to Doyoon.
It was an impressive sight to wake up with dozens of heads turning at the same time.
Doyun told King Seong to listen to his servants.
“Since I am at the top of the line, I will speak comfortably.”
“Well…”
King Seong, who was himself, did not pay attention to Doyoon’s rudeness.
Rather, I was much more interested in the explanation of Do-yoon, who called himself a senior in antiquity.
“…Jim must have a lot to hear too.”
King Seong raised his right leg, which had been hit by Doyoon’s low kick, and slammed it down. awesome Knee joints that were out of alignment were corrected.
“I invite you to the royal castle.”
Doyoon nodded and took a step closer to King Seong. By the way.
“for a moment.”
The King Seong stopped him.
“What is the monster behind you?”
Doyoon’s eyes flashed.
As expected, see through Luna’s concealment like before.
Of course, if it was a real death god, King Seong would have had his head cut off with his eyes wide open. It’s only possible because Luna isn’t quite as mature as the dead.
‘Even so, none of the other warriors noticed.’
He was definitely a strong man.
“You can’t bring demons into a castle. I will kill you on the spot…”
“Watch your mouth.”
At Doyoon’s assertion, King Seong stopped talking.
Doyoon looked straight into his eyes.
“She is my daughter.”
For a moment, Luna’s hiding in the darkness was shaken.
She was greatly shaken by the word ‘daughter’, which she had never heard of.
“…”
King Seong also had a bright look in his eyes.
Taking a demon as a foster daughter. It’s absurd, but strangely, he couldn’t feel any resentment towards the man in front of him.
Also, his intuition, born with the blood of Jecheon Daeseong, was speaking. Don’t pretend to be with the man in front of you.
“…Right.”
The King Seong nodded silently.
“I apologize for my mistake. I invite you both to the castle.”
Do-yoon saw that the servants around him were not surprised by King Seong’s apology. Uncharacteristically for a king, he seems to be the kind of person who easily admits his mistakes and accepts them.
‘Than you think…’
Strangely enough, Doyoon felt as if he had already become quite close to him. The same was true of the King Seong.
Doyoon only nodded and moved along with King Seong.
+++
Doyoon admired silently as he followed King Seong.
‘Can I walk normally?’
With that level of resilience, it must have been the same level 8 physical strength as Doyoon.
From what I felt in battle, strength, agility, stamina, toughness, and magic were all at level 8. Truly a monstrous stat.
Among those Doyoon had seen so far, he was the only one whose sum of all stats reached 40.
Also, his back was also unusual.
‘It’s a muscle of great perfection.’
Like a human anatomy, the fine lines of the back muscles were very clear. The thick muscle fibers twitched as his arms moved back and forth in his stride.
Even for Doyoon, it was the first time he had seen such a developed body since Hecleos. Indeed, it deserves to be called the best martial artist of the time.
The two walked down a long hallway through a large garden.
The castle had numerous vassals. They all stopped what they were doing, retreated to the wall, and bowed to the Holy King.
There were so many of them that I wondered if I needed this much. In addition, the inside of the castle was also splendid.
I thought he would be thrifty because he was the wisest king, but he was unexpected.
Perhaps feeling this, the servant next to him spoke in a low voice.
“Kings and heroes must be dignified. Your Majesty values this far more than petty savings.”
Doyoon nodded.
Most of the rotten kings Enoch had met for 200 years had the same luxury as the great king.
However, even though King Seong acted like them, the meaning inside was different.
For the King Seong, extravagance was not an outburst of greed, but a means to govern the country more effectively.
arrived at the palace. The King Seong stomped and sat down on a throne as huge as himself.
Then, he put his elbow on the armrest and clenched his chin with his fist.
The servants lined up left and right bowed their heads.
“okay.”
A deep voice rang the king’s palace.
Doyoon looked up at Seongwang.
Unraveled front island. Chin-cracking posture. However, he possessed a dignity that was perfectly suited to the title of king… no, the title of chief.
“I have something to tell Jim.”
Doyoon felt that no one would be more suitable for the throne than that man.
Doyoon activated the attribute and opened the status window of the King Seong.
[Status Window]

His status window was very concise. At the same time, it was very intense.
The stats of all the same 8 levels are also amazing. However, the one with the highest presence is [Kunbeop] level 9.
As I learned in the cradle, it was the only level 9 skill that existed on the continent.
When Verd, who leveled up [Kunbeop] during the battle, overpowered Heineken and Doyoon for a moment, he was level 8 at that time.
If it was level 9, its power could not be easily guessed.

Judging from the extremely small number of skills, it seems that he devoted his entire life to martial arts.
It was a tough status window that suited him, as he could see the fighting style just by looking at the status window.
‘But…’
The rate of martial arts is A. The Hecleos formula he holds means incomplete.
An old vassal, bent down, crouched toward the throne and handed the parchment to the king. The investigation was over, and the personal image of Do-yoon was an enemy parchment.
When the King Seong read it and returned it, the vassal backed away without straightening his back to the end.
“Was you Han Do-yoon?”
Doyoon nodded.
“Han Do-yoon… Um.”
After thinking for a while, the king chanted something and nodded as if he understood.
“Everyone step back.”
“yeah-“
Even though the intruder who had been hostile to the king until just now was alone with the king, all the servants bowed their backs without saying a word.
“I think it will be a heavy story, it bites my ears.”
“What do you mean?”
“Anyway, it seems that ‘200 years’ that Master Dokgo asked about a while ago was about you.”
200 years. It is the number of years Enoch has lived through all rounds.
One day, when Doyoon and Dokgo Mooyeong talked about Enoch’s death. When he asked Do-yoon to take care of himself. At that time, Doyoon mentioned it briefly.
Hearing this, Dokgo Moo-yeong thought carefully about the word ‘200 years’ and asked King Seong.
King Seong probably guessed that the ‘200 years’ that Dokgo Moo-young asked was Do-yoon’s business, considering Dok-go Moo-young’s unusually caring for Do-yoon and the martial arts Do-yoon showed today.
But there was something strange.
‘how?’
Enoch, Busker, and Hecleus know about the years of Enoch’s life and his return. There were only these three.
However, King Seong knew about this and passed it on to Dokgo Mu-yeong.
How did the Holy King know ‘200 years’?
“Looks like you have a guess.”
“…”
Doyoon didn’t answer.
“Jim has a lot of questions about you.”
“…me too.”
The King Seong nodded and said.
“One question and one answer.”
Exchange questions and answers one at a time.
A façade of pacts in which each other could lie. However, Doyoon nodded.
It was a brief fistfight, but through it, the two knew that the other was not a person to lie.
“I will yield the Seonmun.”
They are natural and confident in giving. The more Doyoon talked, the more Hecleos felt in him.
“How do you know about ‘200 years’?”
“My teacher Hwang Bo-jun.”
The name of Hwang Bo-jun, a boss monster killer from the Moorim dimension and a genius of martial arts who was called Kwon Hwang of the new era, came out.
“Master found a ‘record’ left by an unknown person on the battlefield in the past. It was written there.”
record.
The only people who knew about regression were Busker and Hecleus. It is a record left by one of the two.
It was obvious without looking at who it was.
Doyoon ended the question with silence. It was the king’s turn.
“Just now, what did you find out from my answer?”
Hearing the question, Doyoon admired inwardly.
I thought he was going to ask Hecleus-style origins, but it was a catchy yet effective question.
Doyoon answered honestly without hiding it.
“The ‘record’ acquired by Apostle Hwang Bo-jun. That’s what Kwon Hwang left behind.”
The King Seong, who had been resting his chin on his back, straightened his body as if surprised.
He murmured as he leaned his head against his chair, eyes as if he had attained great enlightenment.
“…was it like that.”
Was it too Judging from the reaction, the holy king did not know that the owner of the record was Hecleos. It was probably just a vague guess.
The King Seong closed his eyes for a long time as if to organize his thoughts. Doyoon stared at him and waited quietly.
After a while, King Seong opened his eyes and looked down at Doyun. It was Doyoon’s turn.
“What was the content of the record?”
“A stone gate engraved on the wall with Jigi (指氣). It is said to have contained the most ardent, ultimate kwonbeop under the sky.”
Ki (气) that is allowed only to high-ranking apostles. Exhaling it with your fingers is qi (指氣).
He leaves behind martial arts by writing on the wall with his energy. It is an absurdly difficult task that could only be described in mythology.
It means that the person who did this was a strong man of a far-off state, which was absolutely impossible even for the King Seong.
Do-yoon heard this and felt a sense of deja vu.
‘Writing on the wall?’
There is no reason whatsoever. If accompanied by magical treatment, even paper can preserve records permanently.
Even so, the fact that it was engraved on the wall means that there was no choice but to do so.
Doyoon recalled the words that Verde had said before he died after repenting of his mistake.
‘Kwon Hwang… In order to stop that project, he invaded the Demon Castle alone… was mortally wounded by the Demon King and fled…’
“…”
It is Do-yoon who tried to ask another question.
However, his mouth moved on its own, and he uttered a low, sad voice.
“…Kwon Hwang-eun.”
“I heard that there was a skeleton in a cave with a stone gate engraved on it.”
Doyoon’s fists were clenched, and the gauntlet made a loud sound.
“Perhaps he was the one who left the record.”
In the end, Doyoon closed her eyes tightly.
Clenched teeth cut into his gums, causing blood to flow. I couldn’t contain my emotions.
The king stared at him silently and waited.
‘…okay. Death is a known fact. There’s nothing new about it.’
It’s Yunan. Suffering like this right now is nothing more than trembling. Doyoon repeated to himself several times.
after a while Doyoon, who controlled his emotions and opened his eyes, looked at King Seong. It was the king’s turn.
“’In terms of chronological order, I am higher.’ What did these words mean?”
Doyoon stared at King Seong.
‘…Then this guy.’
Is he the right person that Hecleos so desperately wanted?
‘…’
Doyoon’s eyes turned golden.
“The name of that martial art is Hecleus’s.”
Doyoon pointed at Seongwang with his finger and said.
“This is the name I gave it more than 100 years ago.”
The King Seong opened his eyes.
