Chapter 14 – Chapter 01: Elf Heavenly Horse
It’s just that the world is close to being reversed in terms of sexual desire and social status based on gender.
That’s why Cheonma and Yeonhwa also like cute and pretty things. But despite this, his personality was close to that of a typical male Cheonma.
He was arrogant, cruel, ruthless, and greedy. He is the embodiment of absolute strong self-respect, who takes it for granted that he stands above others and believes that it is the law of the world for others to obey him.
Therefore, it was originally extremely difficult to become her disciple. She either had to have something that appealed to her, or else she had to have overwhelming talent.
Even if talent is not considered in the realm of the absolute, talent is considered in the realm before that.
And depending on how quickly you reach the previous level, you have the ‘time’ to challenge the status of the absolute, so talent does not determine everything, but it is also not a factor that can be ignored.
In that sense, it was natural for the Heavenly Demon to demand talent from those who would become his students. He is a disciple who continues the Heavenly Demon’s Jinshin season, but if he does not have talent, it would be an insult to the Heavenly Demon.
… In other words, it was originally impossible for Eugene to become Cheonma’s disciple. Eugene’s body may be different, but Stral’s body had no talent at all.
And in fact, it was impossible for not only Eugene but also the protagonist of Orbital World to become a disciple of the Heavenly Demon.
The talent required by the Heavenly Demon was such that even the protagonist, who was quite talented, could not even do pull-ups.
… However, it was different when using this military service. As Cheonma said, she had a personality closer to the male Cheonma than the female Cheonma that is often seen in subculture these days, but that is why she was a definite type for her benefactor.
In short, if the person who puts her martial book in her hands returns it to her Cheonma before Cheonma retrieves her martial book first, she is in a situation where Cheonma will inevitably receive her favor.
And in this situation, if you deal with her Heavenly Demon and navigate through her options that correspond to her mines, a situation will be created where you can learn a few moves from her Heavenly Demon by helping her.
In this situation, if you continue to increase the favorability of the Cheonma, you will fall in love with the Cheonma and become her disciple, which is the Cheonma Disciple route!
In this way, if she begins her route of becoming Cheonma’s disciple, from then on Cheonma shows his generous side to the protagonist in earnest.
Even though she was an arrogant, cruel, and ruthless Heavenly Demon, she was generous to those she found interesting.
And especially, she shows an even more generous side to those she recognizes as her own.
Therefore, as long as she becomes his disciple, she will begin to take care of Cheonma frugally enough to make up for all the times she has been hit here and there by Cheonma!
‘What’s more, the current Heavenly Demon is aware of the feeling of loneliness, unlike when he was a human.’
The lifespan of the Heavenly Demon who underwent a complete transformation by reaching a state called the realm of harmony, the realm of harmony, or the realm of mythology, and in magic circles, the realm of extreme demons, was hundreds of units.
However, even such a heavenly demon could not live for several decades and died for some reason of her own. In such a situation, she was reincarnated as an elf who lived for hundreds, and in some cases, thousands of years without having to undergo her physical transformation.
After that, in order to regain her inaction, Cheonma went through a complete transformation again after ten years of hardship. In other words, the lifespan of a Heavenly Demon may in some cases be five digits, that is, ten thousand units.
In such a situation, Cheonma devoted hundreds of years to martial arts in order to reach the level of enlightenment that she could not reach in her previous life.
This was a hardship that was possible because I was the type of person who did not have much interest in anything other than martial arts in my previous life.
… But is hardship really hardship for nothing? Even if he is a Heavenly Demon who has no relationship with people, he has no choice but to be aware of the feeling of loneliness as he has spent over 200 years alone and trained in martial arts.
If Heavenly Demon had been born as an elf from the beginning, I don’t know if he could have easily survived for about 200 years due to the elf race’s unique sense of time.
However, Cheonma’s previous life was a human. And as a human being, he has reached the status of an absolute being and has completed his ego as a species called human.
Therefore, even though it has the body of an elf, the Heavenly Demon’s senses are attuned to those of the human race, and so 200 years was enough time to make the Heavenly Demon aware of the feeling of loneliness.
‘Thanks to this, the current Heavenly Demon’s personality has become considerably softer than in the past, right?’
… The problem was that the level of relaxation was such that if you chose just one wrong choice, your limbs would be lost.
At least in the past, there was nothing to be said even if one’s head was blown off, so if only one of the limbs was blown off and one’s life was saved, it was softened.
As I said there, he really took good care of me as a disciple, making me forget my softened personality and loneliness once I became his disciple.
In short, the Cheonma’s Disciple route is a route where it is extremely difficult to become a disciple, but if you become a disciple, you can definitely obtain the reputation of being called the best person in the world, excluding the dark side behind the Demon King and the third organization.
‘It’s not for nothing that Elf Cheonma and Yeonhwa are one of the four sub-heroines.’
… Well, among the sub-heroines, she was the only one with the absurd title of unattackable heroine!
No, she’s a sub-heroine, but if she can’t attack her, is she really a heroine? I could have thought about it, but I’ll talk about the reason later…
‘Let’s see… , Found.’
Once Eugene took possession of Old Yuma’s martial arts book, which was the only key to the route to becoming a disciple of the Heavenly Demon, he began to search every nook and cranny of the reward room.
This reward room was a special place where the acupuncture points mentioned above and the supernatural tools created in the dungeon were gathered.
I don’t know if it exists because of the game’s permission, or if it was created naturally for some reason, but the important thing is that there are a few other rewards in addition to the dungeon core, the Book of Martial Arts.
And Eugene smiled faintly as he found one of them, one of the so-called hidden pieces, the reward he had been thinking of conquering this dungeon with Mu Gongseo and obtaining.
‘Honestly, it’s hard to even call it a hidden piece.’
That’s because the item Eugene found in the reward room was a gifted tool that had nothing to say even if it was said to be a cursed item.
“Clearly… “It was a martial arts skill that caused self-destruction after absorbing essence at random, right?”
It was a martial arts book that recorded a magician named Heupseong Daebeop, whose name would not be tolerated if he did not appear regularly in martial arts journals.
As it is natural that it is a chimney excavated from a dungeon, it is an imitation sacred device that imprints the knowledge of martial arts in your mind just by reading it in its entirety, even if you do not understand it, like Gu Yusingong’s martial arts book.
In the first place, martial arts books unearthed from dungeons that were coincidentally connected to the martial arts world were mostly imitation novels that imprinted recorded martial arts knowledge into one’s mind.
Therefore, among those in Orbital World who have no connection to martial arts and are still developing martial arts that are still in the stage before reaching martial arts, there are those who have mastered martial arts.
Even if they did not even have knowledge of acupuncture points and acupuncture points, which are the most important knowledge of martial arts, if they struck down the basic knowledge and principles of martial arts as sins, they could use martial arts without even basic knowledge.
Of course, that’s why those who learned the martial arts were the only ones to use them, and it was quite difficult to properly pass them on to their students.
In order to learn martial arts properly, you must first have basic knowledge of martial arts, but martial arts users in Orbital World did not have such a thing.
They were simply people who used internal energy in the acupuncture points and acupuncture points according to their instincts through knowledge imprinted in their minds, wielded herbivorous skills, and drew out martial arts techniques.
Therefore, unless you are a genius, it is difficult to achieve great success in martial arts in Orbital World even if you learn martial arts.
‘That’s why martial arts is not spreading widely in the Orbital World, even though it is clearly superior to martial arts.’
Of course, there was no way that the martial artists of Orbital World did not know that martial arts was a higher level of martial arts.
Therefore, when martial arts books were discovered, they were persistent in retrieving them and trying to somehow interpret them to establish basic knowledge about martial arts.
However, martial arts itself was a discipline that was built upon the knowledge of many people over a long period of time, even after martial arts had developed over a long period of time and the most basic martial arts had been established.
In other words, it will take another 20 years for the basic knowledge of martial arts to be established, even if it is not possible with the martial arts in Orbital World now.
‘To put it another way, it meant establishing a theory that was completed after thousands of years of hard work in just 20 years.’
… In fact, whatever it was, it wasn’t an important factor to Eugene.
In the first place, Eugene had no intention of learning martial arts, so what does it matter to Eugene whether the basic knowledge of martial arts is established 20 years later and martial arts instead of martial arts takes root in the Orbital World?
‘No, it doesn’t matter at all.’
In the case of main heroines and sub-heroines who become stronger by learning martial arts, for example, heroes or assassins, there was a big difference depending on whether they were learning martial arts or martial arts.
In other words, excellent spiritual skills are a more necessary element for heroines who will fight together with the Demon King’s army and the third force in the future than for Eugene.
‘… Well, if you have time, you can find the martial arts book that suits you best.’
As if they weren’t heroines for nothing, the heroes and assassins were overwhelmingly different from Stral in terms of talent.
Therefore, even if you do not have basic knowledge of martial arts, you will be able to build up your reputation with martial arts that are engraved in your mind.
If that doesn’t work, shouldn’t you somehow increase the favorability of the Elf Heavenly Demon and then learn the basic knowledge about martial arts and teach it yourself?
‘In order to reduce the power level of the third force called the Demon King’s Army, the growth of not only me but also the heroines is essential.’
The unattackable sub-heroine, Elf Heavenly Demon, is an exception, and the other heroines are people who will become absolute allies against the two groups who are trying to destroy this Orbital Continent.
With that thought in mind, Eugene looked through the martial arts books scattered around the reward room, as the name of the Demonic Cult’s Library befitted. Soon, without any hesitation, he took only the martial arts books of Old Demon Lord and Heupseong Dabeop, which were the dungeon cores.
‘In the first place, other than these two, they are all magicians with severe side effects.’
Is the magic craft called the magic craft for nothing? Not all magic arts were like that, but they were called magic arts because they went against the laws of heaven just by learning them and had severe side effects in return.
Of course, as I said, not all magicians were like that. In the first place, the martial art called magic itself meant a martial art that deals with the internal energy of the evil attribute called magic energy.
In other words, going against the law of heaven and having severe side effects is not a necessary element of magic.
It is only that, unlike other internal energy techniques, it is heavily biased in that the internal energy of the attribute of magic itself goes against the law of heaven and accumulates more quickly as severe side effects are assumed.
As evidence, isn’t the Guyumagong, which Eugene calls a new technique, an unprecedented new technique that, far from having any side effects, promises the status of a ruler to those who practice it?
Well, in return, if someone without talent learns it, the benefit of the ultra-fast growth in the early stages, which is unique to magic, was minimal.
Nevertheless, if you compare it to the traditional technique, the growth is fast, so the new technique is still a new technique.
‘But there is no way that magic skills that are close to such magical skills are common.’
A demon organization of the size of the Heavenly Demon God Church would possess such high-ranking magicians, but in the first place, this dungeon was a dungeon at a miraculous level just because it had the martial arts book of the old magician.
Even so, Eugene judged that it was barely meeting the level of difficulty that Guyumagong’s Martial Order could have, given that the dungeon discovery and entry conditions were strict.
However, in the reward room of the dungeon, where the maximum amount of rewards is filled with just the old Demon Lord’s martial arts book, there is no way that a high-ranking magician without side effects that can only be found in the Heavenly Demon Church is rolling around, right?
‘There are a total of 7 volumes of Military Officials. Among these, the magic technique that has no side effects is the basic magic technique, Ma Hyeong-gong.’
