Chapter 99 – War God Festival (8)
The crowd watched the non-stage with dazed expressions as if possessed by the dreamy appearance. The sight of blindingly bright light gathering between the palms of Kim Mu-gong, which obscured his vision, was as if he were seeing magic.
Contrary to the majority of the crowd who held their breath, the Moorim Maeng personnel started a commotion from the moment the Mancheon Hwawoo Bihwan broke out.
“Isn’t that a golden dragon weapon?”
Koh Seung-bin, who came out to manage Cheorwon Non-stage instead of Dok-go-pae, asked coldly. Dangsaeum turned her head away and refused to answer. After Dang So-so’s attack was blocked, Dan Dang-eum’s face changed rapidly in real time.
“Couldn’t it be that Tang Mun used a golden dragon weapon for his sword fight? It must be an illusion. Actually, I simply didn’t block it.”
The answer came from another man next to him.
“…Simple. Don’t you know what that weapon is?”
“If it is a martial art written by a master of the Demonic Cult, it must be a magic art.”
“Geongondae age.”
Ko Seung-bin spat out briefly.
“The Demonic Cult’s Apologetics!”
Due to his unique personality specialized in defense, Konkondaenai was famous even among political figures. Few people actually saw it due to the fact that it was passed down from generation to generation only to the religious leaders.
“It is. It’s not just martial arts.”
“The headmaster has already passed on the Kungondaenai.”
“Not only in teaching, but also in using it. It is as if I have been training for ten years.”
“I don’t know if we’ll see the Demonic Cult win the Musin Festival.”
“Ugh! It’s not something we don’t know yet. In this kind of military service, it’s not true that Tang Mun is a little… It’s not true that he lags behind with just general martial arts.”
“It is true. Apparently, the use of old poison or forbidden weapons is restricted in the military.”
At the whispers of Murimmaeng figures next to him, veins swelled on his forehead. He lowered his voice, but there was not a single person here who couldn’t hear that level.
‘Cheeky…! They don’t even know!’
However, if he goes on a rampage here, it will be openly exposed that Tang Mun used both the Gudae Geukpok and the Golden Dragon weapon in his defense. Of course, the more people you know, the harder it is to avoid.
Dangsaeum gritted its teeth and turned away from reality. After finishing the dance, Dang So-so did not even look at the Dang-eum, and went straight inside.
‘Stupid bitch.’
He saw the hesitation in Tang Xiao Xiao’s hands. Hesitating against a mongrel of the Demonic Cult when it would not be enough even if he pursued victory by any means.
‘As expected, it doesn’t suit me.’
The sound of the party clicked his tongue inwardly. The successor of the party family should not be such a weak bitch. Wasn’t it the spirit of our school to repay favors twice and enemies tenfold?
Ko Seung-bin looked at Dan Dan-eum with his arms folded and his forehead furrowed with a cold gaze.

“It’s okay?”
Midsummer asked with a worried expression. I lightly tousled midsummer’s hair.
“Can’t you see? It was within the expected range.”
“Thank god. I think it would have been a mess if I hadn’t stopped it properly.”
As Midsummer said, the non-stage where Dang So-so and I fought was nothing short of a mess.
If I hadn’t dealt with it in the air with Fire Dragon Ascension, it wouldn’t have been strange at all if the floor had been turned over.
The amount of energy contained in the small weapon was enormous.
I’m curious as to what method you used.
“…The last weapon, it looks like Manchuria.”
Cheon Ha-yeon said gently twisting the ends of her hair.
“Dangmun Biggie?”
“Maybe. I’ve only heard that Cheonbi-gak has something like that, but it’s the first time I’ve actually seen it.”
“I don’t think it’s anything to use during a rain dance.”
“If the information of Cheonbigak is clear. That’s a golden dragon weapon.”
“They are crazy.”
What if I couldn’t stop that? If I had to leave this world because I was hit somewhere, even in a bad place.
Would the Heavenly Demonic Church have stayed still?
I was the one who provoked it, but I’m sure someone above the party gate forced Dang Su-so to use the Golden Dragon weapon.
“…I don’t know what you’re thinking. If you even die Did you think you would stay quiet in Protestantism?”
“What if that was what you wanted?”
“You mean the family is ruined?”
The moment Dangmun confronted Singyo, Myolmun was confirmed. No matter how strong Dangata is, it will end that day as soon as the main force of the Protestant religion attacks.
“Or maybe you thought I wasn’t worth that much.”
“That sounds stupid. If you didn’t know, you’d be incompetent, and if you knew, you’d be crazy.”
Midsummer opened her mouth from the side.
“That is correct. If you die, if that’s because of the gate. Both of our life goals will change.”
Cheon Ha-yeon exchanged glances with Han Yeo-reum with cool eyes.
“…Is it revenge?”
I asked with a bit of annoyance.
“Isn’t it natural? If my father doesn’t allow it, whether it takes ten or decades. After I ascend to the throne, I will erase your name from the world.”
The will carried in the transparent green eyes was resolved. Carefully looked around. I was shocked, but in case you didn’t know. Fortunately, no one was near us.
“You should value your life.”
Because I can’t make them walk through decades of revenge. It is Kang Ho Moo-rim’s physiology that Eun-won goes round and round endlessly, but the fewer things to take revenge on, the better.
“It’s fine if you know.”
Cheon Ha-yeon responded with a soft smile.
***
It started with the round of 128 and progressed rapidly from the round of 64 to the round of 32. My opponent in the round of 32 was Kwak Ja-san, a 3rd year cadet.
In terms of skill alone, he was far inferior to Dang So-so.
Just looking at pure martial arts skills, it was like that.
Even more so, if you include the extreme poison and the forbidden weapon that can kill even the best masters, they couldn’t even compare.
In the end, an easy win in an instant.
And the round of 16 is right around the corner. From now on, in fact, no one was easy enough.
In fact, there were quite a few people who fell out of the Red Dragon Corps, Jeokha, Hong Eun-ju, Wi Ji-yeon, and Sang-sang Seol.
There are only these four left.
Of course, 10 people participated, but 4 people advanced to the round of 16 was by no means a small number.
One even fell into civil war.
In addition, in the round of 16, as Hong Eun-joo and Wi Ji-yeon’s match was completed, a civil war broke out again. It was a bit disappointing.
However, even this amount of shock to the people of the political faction seemed to be enormous.
The four Red Dragons and me. In fact, if you include midsummer, almost half of the 16 lectures were filled with Protestants.
Anyway, that’s it.
“…Why am I so unlucky?”
The enemy sighed deeply as the ground disappeared in front of me. He was taking a break after helping with the training of the Jeokryongdae to prepare for the 16th robbery.
“Think of it as a good opportunity.”
“What a great opportunity!”
She protested, banging her fist on her own thigh.
“Uh huh.”
Possessing Master, she pretended to be solemn.
“Sorry.”
It took a while for Jeokha to bow her head and apologize. She said as she leaned towards me as if her anger was rising again.
“No, why, out of so many people, are you facing the captain in the round of 16? It’s embarrassing. Someone else could have done it.”
“Does it really look worth it?”
“…No.”
“Judging objectively, no one is easy in the round of 16.”
Rather, it could be said that it was luck that came this far.
“Nevertheless. I was just looking forward to a great match that would warm my heart. You can’t see the angle at all against the captain.”
“I’ll take a look, so don’t be like that.”
“Are you really going to watch it?”
I looked at the drop with her hands clasped as her eyes twinkled.
Just-
I couldn’t stand the honey night. He snapped his fingers right away and made a small bump on his forehead. It was the same when I hit Dangsoso, but the feeling of hitting is quite good. Compared to that time, the power was vastly different.
“Aww.”
The enemy exaggeratedly grabbed her forehead and stared at me with a sharp look.
“I will do just that. Surrender when it’s hard.”
“…Five! Thank you!”
Whenever he whined, his expression immediately brightened.
I clicked my tongue inwardly.
Anyway.
Frivolity is the problem. Frivolity.
***
“Oh, our martial artist. I got second place.”
Han Yeo-reum sipped an iced Americano on her side and looked at her phone.
“Who is number one?”
“Kim Yong. But is this right?”
“Since he is a political faction figure, he must have entered a lot of points. It’s not that Kim Yong is weak.”
“I’m in third place. 4th place is Hong Eun-joo, Dae-joo? It is the heyday of Protestantism. They are all at the top of the Round of 16.”
“The drop has a higher rank than the delay. It’s not quite like that yet.”
Wi Ji-yeon came up after winning a fierce civil war with Gong Son-lin in the round of 32.
The enemy’s development was quite fast, but it was still a bit short of the top 3 of the Red Dragon.
It’s talent, because the other Red Dragon members are all excellent. If martial arts and intelligence are similar, it is not easy to overcome time.
“Anyway, this is a popularity vote rather than skill.”
“It is, however.”
“My next opponent is Alice. What kind of foreigner am I at enmity with?”
“I think it will be difficult this time.”
“Right. He fought well.”
If Han Yeo-reum beat Alice, she would face Hong Eun-joo next.
If you win there too.
‘It’s ambiguous.’
Three out of four of the people coming up from the other side of midsummer were foreigners, so it was hard to get a sense of it.
Especially Ares, Oskar von Schaumberg.
These two were unique in their martial arts, so it was more difficult to determine the odds of winning.
That ‘Ares’ is a hero name or something.
It seems that the United States set up its own hero name from the academy days and turned it into a hero. The name of the academy is Hero Academy.
As befits the United States, the king of capitalism, the scale of its market seemed enormous.
Well, looking at it now, it didn’t look much different from the Moorim people’s nicknames. I moved my gaze toward the broadcasting screen that was clamoring in the cafe.
From there, the image of Kim Yong raising his sword high into the sky with a triumphant expression was reflected from various angles.
‘It’s Kim Yong.’
After losing to me, he was showing an amazing growth, as if he had been desperate.
It’s not for nothing that she was chosen as a competitor of future Cheon Ha-yeon.
If I beat Jeokha, there was a high possibility that Seomun Yerin would be in the quarterfinals, and Kim Yong would be my opponent in the semifinals.
‘It’s not bad.’
Anyway, Kim Yong will lose again this time.
If you don’t get frustrated by defeat, you will be able to grow faster.
Considering the future, it was a draw that was close to the best.
