Chapter 229 – Dispatch Missions (9)
*
His face naturally crumpled at the smell of blood on the tip of his nose.
The lumps spread all over the place with bloodstains here and there would probably make people sick if they saw them.
Every time Choi Tae-soo stretched out his hand, the fragments of a human being scattered everywhere seemed like an act beyond cruelty.
My vision blurred for a moment, and I had the illusion that I was reminded of my childhood.
Back then, as now, this fishy smell of blood was everywhere.
If you simply judged the atmosphere, would this place feel more somber and unclean?
However, if you compare only unpleasant feelings, that place in the past will be worse.
Each time the sword moved, the human head separated from the body.
Does anyone like to kill people?
I don’t know if such a crazy person exists, but Park Hye-ji wasn’t the kind of person who enjoyed that kind of thing.
But there was no hesitation in her hand.
Just as Choi Tae-soo silently broke her head, Park Hye-ji swung her sword with an insensitive expression.
Because the people he cuts are not human.
She was just killing to make sure she didn’t feel pain, she was just hunting.
Past.
Before awakening.
She was an ordinary child who grew up in the same family as everyone else.
No, she was a child who grew up with love in a slightly special family, and was a child who grew up with plenty of love in an unenviable family.
As always, all events happen suddenly.
As the gates appeared and monsters began to come over, mankind lived a different life than before.
In the news, it was reported that someone died and died, but. It didn’t make much sense to her.
It’s only natural that a few people died, and they don’t pay much attention to who died.
For her well-to-do, people dying from the bites of monsters seemed far away.
But is it because of the family situation that is too affluent?
It is the target of criminals who have gained special powers.
That day, robbers raided her house, and she still vividly remembered the brutal slaughter of the bodyguards she thought would protect her every day.
There was nothing she could do but tremble and curl up.
The housekeeper who would come to wake her up every morning, the driver who took her to school, and the bodyguards who would not leave her alone.
Because she died before her eyes.
It was so shocking that I don’t remember much of what happened after that.
Maybe it’s just that when she came to her senses, her own grandfather, Choi Tae-soo, came running and brandished her sword.
Every time she stretched out her fist, the inner scars revealed were many of the scars left at that time.
Of course, she couldn’t ignore the newly carved scars in order to rise to the position of S-class, but that was in her memory.
She was in great shock and was the one who lived her life away for a while.
In her awakening, she stood before the world again.
Unlike her helpless past self, she is determined to become someone who no one can touch like Choi Tae-soo.
With her determination to never make such victims again, she decided not to forgive the villain.
They were not the same person, but monsters, monsters to be hunted as hunters.
So when she cut her throat it was a kind of mercy.
It’s probably one of the quickest and most painless ways to die.
The moment he was about to swing his sword, his heavy hand grabbed his wrist.
“It’s Hyeji.”
Choi Tae-soo’s voice in my ears.
“Ah.”
“You were so excited. Are you okay?”
“I’m sorry. I made you worry again, so… “
“It’s okay, calm down.”
I could feel the tremors lessening in his soft, warm voice.
“Hmm… Hmm. Anyway, I can’t forgive these people.”
“Haha. You sound normal.”
Those in the room couldn’t help but tremble at the sight of the two smiling faces.

If there is a hell, is it here?
Everyone had no choice but to run away from the massacre created by the bear-like man and the slender girl.
I gave up waiting for support at the door.
‘Sword Master… ‘
Because the sword master using the blue aura was slaughtering all the guards trying to enter the entrance.
Where did they send them?
People with this level of skill would probably spread rumors, but these were people I had never seen before.
A beautiful swordswoman who uses water freely, and an inspiration that smashes her sword and head with her fists.
‘Where on earth did these guys come from?’
Were they sent by the church to rescue the saintess?
To say that, they couldn’t even feel the dust-like divine power from their bodies.
A suspicious combination that can hardly be said to have been spent in an adventurer’s guild.
Why is a monster like that who can’t work with swords or magic even though he’s naked, still here at this time?
It wasn’t that he didn’t think of taking the saintess hostage, but it was a story he couldn’t even dream of because he was guarded by an inspiration that moved so fast that he couldn’t even see her.
Or were they sent from the Empire?
‘Okay. The Empire is the only one who can hide monsters like that.’
Gulp.
I could clearly hear the sound of saliva going over my neck, swallowed by the approaching shadow of death.
It wasn’t that I wasn’t prepared to die, but I never dreamed that I would die here.
He came here because he hated the empire, but would he die at the hands of the empire in the end?
That many people were being slaughtered mercilessly by only three prosecutors.
“Ah… You are the deepest darkness.”
The moment death approached, the figures of those dying around his altar came into view.
Bodies overflowing and souls of the dead.
If we can’t get out alive, shouldn’t we at least take them with us?
I saw the body of an old woman wriggling around the altar.
‘O High Priest… ‘
They thought it was over, but it isn’t.
“You are the deepest darkness!!!! Your faithful servant offers himself. Destroy those wicked people!!!!”
“Destroy it!!!”
“Hyeji, something is strange!!”
“I felt it too!!”
Everyone around them pulled out their knives and stabbed them in the heart.
The two frowned at what happened in an instant without any time to stop, and something unexpected happened.
*
My heart started responding to the silent and huge shaking.
“What?”
As I wielded the sword with my unique area activated, I had no choice but to turn my head and check inside.
Something nasty, emanating from the dark red glowing magic jean, began to drag those with a knife through their hearts.
The corpses dragged by dozens or hundreds of hands began to disappear as if they were smoke the moment they touched the magic circle.
“Ah… The deepest darkness… “
“Darkness…”
The guys I was fighting with suddenly knelt down and started to shed tears as if they were thrilled.
“Fuck… What’s this?”
__Seogeol.
Even though they were swinging their swords in front of their eyes, they didn’t respond at all.
Is there anything more precious than your own life?
Is this the so-called fanaticism? Feeling goosebumps, I quickly dealt with them and moved inside.
In a place full of ominous energy, Choi Tae-soo and Park Hye-ji were rescuing those who seemed to be hostages.
The beautiful woman on the altar and the rest of the blindfolded personnel were being hurried away.
“What is going on?”
“I do not know either..”
The moment people were evacuated to a corner, the body of the guy whose head had been blown off by Choi Tae-soo’s fist in the first place began to rise into the air.
The dirty and ugly energy emanating from the magic circle began to surround him, and the missing head reappeared.
“Anf!$
Ak!
?1afd?”
Choi Tae-soo clenched his fist at the grotesque voice that was not even imperial and was completely incomprehensible.
“I don’t know what it is, but I don’t think we should wait. What do you think?”
“Me too…”
__Paaang!!!
Choi Tae-soo’s fist moved faster than my answer.
Even though his fists couldn’t reach, an explosion occurred and the corpse that floated in the air was shattered or scattered on the altar.
‘Did this solve the problem?’
I looked at the altar with small expectations. Things in this world can’t be that easy.
The upper body of something black began to rise from inside the altar.
The moment Choi Tae-soo was about to raise his fist again, something in his upper body reached out to defend Tae-soo’s fist.
__Quaaaaang!!!
The collision between the two huge powers created waves so strong that the body was pushed away.
“These are people with impatient personalities.”
A low, grotesque voice echoed through the room.
I naturally frowned at the unpleasant sound of scratching the blackboard.
Red bloodshot eyes and huge black red horns.
We call such beings this.
“Devil..?”
“Humans don’t even call it that. You guys have a very special smell. It’s a smell I’ve never smelled before.”
It began to emerge gradually, absorbing the corpses around it.
“Why can I hear that?”
“This time I understand.”
“You are not using text. Hmm… To put it simply, it’s conveying consciousness. It’s something that lowly beings like you can’t do.”
I have a lot of questions about the guy’s existence, but the important thing is that I feel like I shouldn’t leave him alone.
[Unique Area: Enabled]
[Mana Sim: Activate]
__Pajik Pajik…
Unpleasant energy around me met the power of Anti-Ma and began to cause a backlash.
When the blue sparks rose as if sparks were flying, his expression also changed.
“You have dangerous power.”
Recall the feeling of that time.
Circulates the power around you through the Mana Sim method. Unlike the time when there was little backlash because it was empty, it was a more unpleasant sensation, so a rejection reaction occurred in the body.
Contaminated mana and exorcism are opposing each other, but they soon began to move according to my will.
The surroundings became dark, and things that should not be seen began to be seen in the sky.
As the mana fluctuated, it began to become clear little by little.
“What are you going to do?”
His voice started to become urgent.
There is no need to wait for the original transformation.
“This guy! Stop!!”
Unlike the first time when he seemed relaxed, his voice was urgent.
A blue full moon rose in the sky, the same color as that day.
“Blue moon?”
