Chapter 16 – Chapter 01: Elf Heavenly Horse
After learning that in this Orbital World, there exists a martial art called Absorbing Great Law that cannot be found on Earth, wouldn’t it be able to help with one’s special ability, Salatic? To try out the delusion I had in mind.
“… Well, it’s okay if it works, but if it doesn’t work, it’s okay.”
Nevertheless, if successful, the planet and mind object will all be initialized and you will be able to imprint a simple power that is more useful than before you were possessed, so it would not be a bad idea to try.
Therefore, Eugene, who was the only one among the magic books to have the martial arts book of Heupseongdae, quickly retrieved the dungeon core and nodded after checking the interior walls of the dungeon, which were quickly starting to collapse.
“Good…”
Eugene nodded and immediately sat down on the spot, opened the martial arts book of Heupseong Dabeop that he had found, and began to read it.
It will take some time before the dungeon completely collapses and you are kicked out.
The description in the game said it would take about a minute, so I planned to quickly read the martial arts book of Heupseong Daebeop that I found in it.
‘There is no need to specifically mean the content of the letters, you just need to keep in mind everything from the first page to the last page…’
Even if you just barely skim through the pages in one minute, your knowledge of martial arts will be engraved in your mind through the imitation power of martial arts books.
Therefore, Eugene decided to quickly obtain knowledge about Absorption Great Technique while the dungeon was collapsing.
“… Indeed. “This feels a little off.”
Eugene, who had quickly read the martial arts book of Heupseong Dabeop at lightning speed, frowned and held his forehead as he felt a vast amount of knowledge being forcibly imprinted on his mind the moment he turned the last page.
When I first held the martial arts book in my hand, the way to use it, which had naturally flowed into my head, was not this unpleasant.
However, because the use of martial arts books was simple, it was inevitable that I would feel bad if such a vast amount of knowledge was forced into my head.
“Whoa…”
However, Jeol Yu-jin endures the headache-like dizziness by shaking off her head.
After checking the walls of the dungeon that were almost starting to collapse and the darkness beyond which he could not see even an inch in front of him, he nodded and thought as he felt the feel of the manger’s martial arts book that he had placed in his arms.
‘Cha, now the problem is how to convey this to that Cheonma lady…’
I knew well where the elf Cheonma and Yeonhwa lived. … With games.
In that sense, it was clear that finding the Heavenly Demon in the Lina Forest, a forest near the capital and boasting a considerable area, would be an arduous task, if not impossible.
‘At least it was possible because I knew the location through the game and went through all sorts of hardships while making a living…’
If it were an ordinary person, they would have had to seriously worry about how to find an elf in this large forest.
In that sense, I might have to be grateful to my parents, who passed on to me the business of exorcism and allowed me the experience of wandering through various forests for months to hunt down one vicious spear ghost.
‘… No, I don’t think that’s true.’
Eugene didn’t particularly blame his parents. As a result of his passing away early while performing the karma of exorcism, Eugene also inherited the karma of exorcism from childhood and went through all sorts of hardships in order to survive.
However, while his parents were alive, they did not abuse Eugene, but rather raised him with love.
However, even though she was very proud of her work as an exorcist, she took it for granted that Eugene would also take over their work, and as a result, she educated her about this ability from a young age.
… Actually, there was no problem with this either. The only problem is that as a result of his death too early, Eugene ended up in the underworld of Earth to live before he could grow up properly, contrary to the original plan.
Thanks to that, Eugene went through all kinds of hardships and got to see dirty things, so if nothing else, Eugene didn’t feel good about his parents resigning from the business of exorcism.
‘As soon as we get out of the dungeon, let’s go find the Heavenly Demon.’
Therefore, Eugene, putting aside his brief gratitude to his parents, ignored his body’s cries for immediate rest and decided to move on to search for the Heavenly Demon once the dungeon was closed and he was released.
I desperately wanted to rest right away, but I felt like if I rested now, I would be lying down for at least a day, so I decided to meet the elves Cheonma and Yeonhwa and then rest comfortably under their protection.
‘Others may not know, but I am the man who seduced the elf Cheonma, who is so unapproachable and holds the title of sub-heroine, to the point where I see her as a member of the opposite sex?’
So, no matter how tired you are, it will not be difficult to please the Heavenly Demon and return Gu Yu Demon and receive her protection.
With such confidence, Eugene soon threw the martial arts book of Heupseong Daebeop, which was no longer an imitation divine device as a result of his learning, towards the interior of the disappearing dungeon and closed his eyes.
‘Then, shall we go somewhere to use the Elf Heavenly Demon?’
In the end, he met his favorite character, whom he had failed to capture, in person.
Therefore, it is said that Eugene, who closed his eyes while hiding his slightly pounding heart, felt his body being thrown into the air and escaped from the dungeon called the Library of the Demonic Cult.

“Eugene.”
“Yes…”
“This is the position. He has never failed to get what he wanted. If you wanted to gain martial arts, you had to torture the person who possessed that martial arts to take it away. “If I wanted a weapon, I would have mobilized the entire Protestant Church to find it and get it.”
“… … .”
“It was the same for everything else. “I wanted to try delicacies from the mountains and the sea that I had never tried before, so I threatened the imperial family to invite the royal servants. I also wanted to see the waterfall behind Shaolin Temple, which was reputed to be a spectacular view, so I went on a grand tour with my royal guard and Shaolin temple followers.”
While talking like that, the small, purple woman made a remark with an air of nonchalance that she had sparred with each other several times to criticize and polish each other’s inaction.
Eugene breaks into a cold sweat at that remark and just listens to her in silence.
A petite woman, her height only being less than 160 centimeters. No, even though she only looked like a girl, Eugene could never make a fuss.
That’s because the woman in front of me could be said to be the best person in the world in the current Orbital World, excluding the strange beings that exist in the Demon Lord’s army and the third force!
“Yes, this is the position. She never once missed anything she wanted. That’s because the magic technique I learned was like that and the martial art I practiced was like that. “Greed is the essence of the devil, and this throne, which can be said to be the devil itself, is the embodiment of greed.”
In the first place, the Heavenly Demon Church itself was a religion that began with faith in Mara Papias, the antipode of Buddha, a god who affirms all desires that originate from instinct, the antipode of reason.
Therefore, the magician who wanted to reach such a god out of nothing was also like that, and naturally, the Cheonma and Yeonhwa, who had created such thoughts and images, were the ones more fitting than anyone else to say that they were the embodiment of desire.
“If I had to mention what I couldn’t get my hands on, I would say there are only two types. It is unclear whether it even exists. Or something that I didn’t particularly think I wanted to have.”
Yes, speaking of the former, Yeonhwa continued to say that the most representative example is the state of nothingness.
“The realm of nothingness has no end. Even I, who had dismissed the level of Hyeongyeong as something from legends, was confident that he had reached this level. “Even this state, the ultimate in flower worlds and the end of flower worlds, is only the beginning.”
So what about Hyun-kyung? Is this really the end for Hyeon-kyung? What about the level in mythology that is said to be higher than that? And what about life and death that transcends even that?
Is this really an imaginary state? Is it a state of non-existence? No, from the moment Yeonhwa realized her status as Hyeongyeong, she thought that there were no limits to nothingness.
Therefore, even at this moment, despite desperately yearning for the end of nothingness and studying martial arts, he had half given up on obtaining the end of nothingness.
No matter how eagerly and greedily you pursue something that doesn’t actually exist, there’s no way you’ll be able to obtain it.
Nevertheless, using greed as a driving force that cannot be cut off, getting closer to the end of nothingness than anyone else while alive is the most burning desire and goal of Cheonma and Yeonhwa.
“I mean, that’s it. “The only things I can’t get my hands on are things that are close to shapes that I can’t get my hands on, like the end of nothing, and that I shouldn’t get my hands on, or things I’m not interested in in the first place.”
And, to put it another way, it was also a declaration. Yeonhwa’s declaration that if there is something that the Heavenly Demon wants to obtain, as long as it exists, it will inevitably come into her hands.
“Now then, don’t ask, Eugene. My lovely guest. “Do you think you have ever taken possession of a man?”
“… Doesn’t exist.”
And in response to the question that followed that declaration, Eugene broke into even more cold sweat and honestly put his thoughts into her mouth.
Yeonhwa, a heavenly horse and elf who was maintaining a calm expression, nodded her head with a faint smile.
“Yeah, nothing. There wasn’t. That’s not because I’m a man and a slut. It’s not because I don’t have the ability. “If I had wanted to do this, thousands, tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands of men from the Protestant religion would have happily pulled down their pants, erected their genitals, and waited for the Lord’s grace, forgetting their shame and fawning over me.”
At the moment of Yeonhwa’s story, Eugene held back the feeling of nausea as he unconsciously imagined hundreds of thousands of men all doing exactly what Yeonhwa said.
And for his own sake, Eugene remembers that this is a world where men and women are reversed, and that Yeonhwa’s Moorim was also a world where men and women are reversed, and Eugene replaces that statement with his own common sense.
‘Well, so… If the male Cheonma wanted it, all kinds of beautiful girls and beauties would be there, lowering their skirts, spreading their legs, waiting to be chosen, right?
As he imagined it in accordance with his common sense, he honestly felt very envious, so it was not impossible to understand that the Yeonhwa in front of him was proudly talking about that fact.
… Well, from Eugene’s point of view, as Yeonhwa is a woman, if she is not replaced in this way, she will inevitably be thought of as a promiscuous woman, so it was a necessary process.
“That’s it. If she wanted to, she could have experienced as many men as she wanted. She could have thrown away her virginity a long time ago. Nevertheless, the reason why I am a virgin and have never hugged a man is simple.”
Even as Eugene was thinking those thoughts, Yeonhwa’s continued remarks were slowly reaching their climax.
“It’s because I wasn’t interested in men. It’s not really homosexual. They have as much sex drive as ordinary women. If there’s a nice guy, it’s to the point where I feel like I want to get drunk on the spot. “At that time, I was even more crazy about martial arts.”
And it is the same even now, and she continued to say that that is why Yeonhwa has lived without much interest even in men who would naturally be interested in her if she were a woman.
“And to put it another way, it is not something that has attracted the attention of this committee so far, no, not… It shouldn’t be something that simply grabs attention. “He must be a man who can arouse the greed and desire of the person who is focused solely on martial arts.”
That way, the person who is crazy about martial arts will go to the trouble of trying to get that man.
… As she spoke like that, Yeonhwa slowly opened her mouth, revealing a greed that was dark enough for anyone to see in her violet eyes.
“Yes, it has to be a man who can shake the heart of the principal to the point of making the principal move with his own hands. It has to be a man who can bring out my greed, possessiveness, and love. In that sense, all the men I have met so far have all been substandard.”
Neither the men who had simply obeyed in the hope of being chosen by him in the new religion in his previous life, nor the men from a race called elves who had lived together for decades after his reincarnation, were none of them who attracted Yeonhwa’s attention and thereby elicited her love.
“That is why all the men who hoped for my blessings were afraid of me.”
