Chapter 900 – 900. Hyunseong Joo (3)
Fuck!
Joo Hyeon-seong’s fist hit Eun-hyeon’s face.
The fierce aspect was achieved by sharing fierce battles, exchanging, blocking, avoiding, and counterattacking each other’s attacks.
The result was Eunhyeon’s defeat.
The brain in my head was shaken and my mind was confused by the intense blow, as if I had been hit by an ohhamma.
“Hey!”
A voice of surprise could be heard from afar.
Hearing the voice of the goddess worrying about her, Eun-hyeon regained her consciousness, which had faded like a candle that was barely going out in her hazy consciousness.
“Keugh… !”
As he bit his teeth, the pain that spread through his mouth forced him to wake up.
The chin and cheeks of his face tingled, perhaps because the attack was direct.
Eun-hyeon clenched his fists and glared at Joo Hyeon-seong.
He looked and observed his figure, and he pondered where to attack.
‘Counterattack? Then where?’
The flow of thought that takes place in a very short moment.
But the information and judgment that had to be processed was so slow that it led to hesitation, and that hesitation led to confusion.
Eun-hyeon made a hasty decision and struck a counterattack in Ju Hyeon-seong’s gap.
“Do you really think an attack from such a precarious position will work?”
Ju Hyeon-seong grabbed Eun-hyeon’s fist as a counterattack.
With one of his wrists firmly fixed, he thrusts his fist into Eunhyun’s upper body.
[Juhyeonseong Polar Plain]
[Three-Yeon Jang-goe (三連臟壞)]
It wasn’t just violence wielding monstrous power flowing from a giant.
A series of fierce blows that are executed quickly and precisely.
Unlike the heavy attack from before, Ju Hyeon-seong’s fist hit Eun-hyeon’s vital point exactly.
Uldae, Pyeongchi, Liver.
“Ouch.”
Three critical hits in succession broke Eun-hyeon’s neck and choked him.
As the damage that exceeded his allowable limit piled up on his body, Eun-hyeon fell to the floor.
Joo Hyeon-seong’s shoes trampled on Eun-hyeon’s chest, who was slumping on the floor as if his strength had been exhausted.
“You just hesitated.”
“…”
Eunhyun did not answer.
This is because Joo Hyeon-seong’s point of view was the pinnacle.
It was good to catch consciousness in a hurry and avoid being almost knocked down right away, but Eun-hyeon immediately caught a glimpse of the timing for a counterattack from there, but hesitated.
He was contemplating where to attack to give effective damage.
Shortly after that fleeting moment came, Eun-hyeon found a gap in Ju Hyeon-seong and counterattacked.
Without even noticing that it was a fake that Joo Hyun-seong showed on purpose.
“Why couldn’t I notice your fake? Because I was too strong?”
Certainly, Ju Hyun-seong was strong.
Under the premise of a fight called interpersonal warfare, he possessed not only overwhelming physical strength compared to the average male, but also possessed genius senses and skills that allowed him to utilize them 100%.
However, if it was the usual Eunhyun, she would have been able to notice this level of fake.
The reason this was impossible was because Eunhyeon could not use the power of the goddess that Belldandy had bestowed upon her in this dream.
‘Time Acceleration’ and ‘Thought Acceleration’ created by utilizing the power of Belldandy are the most useful powers that have supplemented Eunhyun’s lack of physical or technical elements.
The restriction of not being able to use it came as a huge penalty.
Of course, even if the power of the goddess disappeared, the experience he had accumulated so far would not disappear anywhere, but epiphany was too strong to cover that limitation.
“Actually, you probably noticed too.”
“…”
Eun-hyeon also felt the problem in the battle with Ju Hyeon-seong.
Maybe it was avoided.
It was like admitting that without the power of a goddess, he would be no different from a mediocre human being without any real talent.
In fact, he was well aware of his lack of talent in learning martial arts.
A fact he knew but avoided, a fact he did not want to face.
But even so, he wondered if he would one day catch up with Hyunseong Ju or Siete, who had taught him so much, if he continued to work hard without stopping.
Actually, Siete acknowledged her recent self and showed respect as a swordsman rather than her disciple.
Therefore, it was a bitter truth that she had been unknowingly oblivious to.
In the difference between overwhelming talent and physicality, he is a truly insignificant being.
Just like now, when he is trampling on his chest lying on her floor and creating a desperate situation.
“Why is your expression like that? Are you dissatisfied?”
“Nice…”
Seeing Eunhyeon glaring at him, Joo Hyeonseong asked calmly.
“But what can I do? It’s true.”
There was anger in Eunhyun’s eyes as she glared fiercely.
Joo Hyun-seong frowned as he looked into his eyes.
“It’s okay to be angry. But I don’t like it.”
The foot that had been trampling on his chest regained strength.
“Ouch!”
“You are angry not because you exposed yourself to being incompetent and weak. Is it because you were exposed here?”
“Nice… !”
Eunhyeon was agitated and opened his eyes wide.
It was because Ju Hyeon-seong’s fingers, which were trampling on him, could see Belldandi looking at Eun-hyeon with a nervous expression from a distance.
“Right in front of that woman.”
Eun-hyeon also knew about it, but it was a fact he had hidden deep in his heart that he did not reveal.
He didn’t even realize it himself.
If he thought about it in his mind, it was obvious that his goddess, who is connected to him by spirit, would read the thought and be greatly hurt.
What kind of expression would Belldandy, who always thought, dedicated, and spared his heart to be of help to Eun-hyeon, when he found out that he was useless and of no help to Eun-hyeon?
He didn’t even want to imagine.
“Why do you worry about others in this situation?”
Joo Hyun-seong asked as if he couldn’t understand.
“Why aren’t you angry at your own weak and pitiful self?”
Instead of lamenting his inadequacies and powerlessness and being angry with himself, his pathetic attitude of worrying about getting hurt in Belldandy’s heart made him irritably rise.
Pathetic, foolish, and annoyed, they do it without hesitation to destroy it.
“Could you be more specific?”
Surprised Eun-hyeon tried to stop it, but Joo Hyeon-seong trampled hard on his chest, putting his resistance to shame.
“Stop…”
“You are.”
Joo Hyeon-seong did not listen to Eun-hyeon.
“If you don’t get out of that woman’s skirt, you can’t be strong forever.”
After those words, Joo Hyeon-seong moved the leg that was stepping on Eun-hyeon’s chest.
I slashed his neck with all my might.
Kwajik!
In an instant, Eun-hyeon’s neck bones were broken, and his breathing stopped with both eyes open.
◆ ◆ ◆
“Ayeah!”
Belldandy, who was watching from afar, was shocked.
At Eun-hyeon’s request to never come close to him, Belldandi, who was standing at a distance and watching him anxiously, turned his head as white as blank paper to the point that he even forgot Eun-hyeon’s request.
At the same time as Belldandi approached, Ju Hyeon-seong separated from Eun-hyeon and increased the distance.
Belldandi hurriedly ran and inspected Eunhyeon’s body.
He didn’t breathe with his eyes open.
“Ah, my child… Wake up…”
Shaking the upper body of Eun-hyeon, who had a broken neck, with both trembling hands, called out to him.
However, Eun-hyeon’s body was only swayed by Belldandi’s hand.
His limp body did not respond to Belldandi’s call.
“Uh, come on… !”
Belldandi called him over and over again as if denying the fact in front of him, but Eun-hyeon’s body, like a corpse that had already left life, did not respond.
“Oh, no. No… !”
Before long, Belldandy hugged Eunhyeon tightly.
He endured and endured the tears that seemed like he would break out at any moment, and glared at the culprit who made him this way.
“You, child… !”
“It’s disgusting.”
However, before the goddess could express all the anger that filled her head, the other side first revealed the emotion.
“… What?”
Belldandy, not having made Eunhyeon like this was not enough, showed a dazed expression at Joo Hyeonseong’s attitude expressing contempt and hatred toward him.
Ju Hyeon-seong poured out words of contempt for Belldandy, who couldn’t say anything in embarrassment and looked up at himself.
“Is a god able to cherish a single human being that much?”
The figure of a goddess hugging Eunhyeon’s body, which is close to a corpse, as if she is not breathing, as if she is really treating her precious companion.
Zhou Hyun-seong couldn’t stand it, so she couldn’t help but feel intense feelings of contempt and hatred.
When Belldandi heard those mixed emotions, his body trembled.
“You… Who are you?”
It was the same question Eunhyeon asked earlier.
The person in front of me is not Joo Hyeon-seong.
To be precise, something wearing the mask of Ju Hyun-seong.
Ju Hyun-seong does not know the existence of God.
This is because at least all the gods of the divine world, including himself and the three goddesses who see fate, were banned from interfering with the lower world.
It was a result that Belldandy was able to create because he twisted the forbidden law and consumed a lot of strength and cost just by giving the power of the three goddesses to an individual named Eunhyeon.
Therefore, among the beings on Earth, Eunhyeon was the only one who clearly recognized the existence of God and was given a mission.
Eun-hyeon must be the only one who knew the existence of a clear god.
Then, who the hell is this man wearing the appearance of Ju Hyun-seong in front of his eyes?
Who is it that shows so much hatred and contempt for himself and the existence of God?
However, the man in the form of Joo Hyun-seong did not answer even one of Belldandi’s many questions.
But after a few seconds, his appearance changed strangely.
His expression, which showed contempt, hatred, and disgust, began to change in an instant to astonishment and bewilderment, and then turned into wailing.
“Oh, my gosh! What crazy!”
Joo Hyeon-seong, who had a surprised expression on his face, hurriedly began to examine Eun-hyeon’s body condition in Belldandi’s arms.
“… Uh?”
Belldandy was taken aback.
A completely different attitude from before.
The way he spoke was clearly embarrassed to the point of being strange.
His eyes seemed to be genuinely worried about Eunhyun’s physical condition.
The whole thing was so bewildered that Belldandy forgot to let out the rage that had risen to the tip of his head.
If others had seen his attitude changed 180 degrees, he might have thought that he might be a person with a dual personality or a psychopath.
Joo Hyun-seong said while staring into the air with an expression full of energy.
“Ha, this crazy bastard is real! I told you to look at it in moderation!”
“…”
There was no answer coming back.
Belldandi, who had a bewildered expression on his face, wasn’t asking himself, so he couldn’t answer.
Who the hell is this person talking to?
Without being able to answer that question, Hyunseong Joo turned his head and started talking to Belldandi, who was staring blankly at him.
“Oh, excuse me. You said that this guy’s goddess is poetry, right? Nice to meet you. This is Ju Hyun-seong.”
Joo Hyeon-seong smiled awkwardly and reached out to Belldandy for a handshake.
“Uh? Uh, um… That, that me… No! No!”
Belldandi, who had almost accepted Joo Hyun-seong’s greetings, hurriedly came to his senses and shook his head.
“What the hell are you?”
“Yes? So it’s Ju Hyun-seong… Hyun, the teacher who taught this guy a few things? Should I say he’s the same guy? And remarriage with this guy’s mother, Yeon-hwa…”
Belldandi cut off Ju Hyun-seong, who was trying to open up useless personal information, and asked again.
“Who asked that?! I’m asking who the hell was the one who made the child like this just a moment ago!”
“Ah, it was on the ‘that guy’ side! Haha! You said this a long time ago!”
Seeing Ju Hyeon-seong scratching his head and laughing heartily, Belldandy started to get angry again in a different way.
“You really don’t know?”
“… What?”
“The guy who was just pretending to be me. Um, is it natural that you don’t know?”
“… Wait a minute.”
Belldandy listened to Joo Hyun-sung’s words and fell into thought for a moment.
Come to think of it, this place is in Eunhyun’s past memories.
Among those in his memory, only a few knew of the existence of the goddess.
If Eunhyeon was the only one who knew about the existence of the goddess in the underworld.
“Just ‘it’ was… Is it another ‘child’… ?”
A self in another future that Eun-hyeon forcibly summoned and temporarily possessed in her body.
A man who was taught by Siete in the same way, and after striving for the path of the sword for over 800 years, took the title of Sword Saint just like his teacher.
It was a remnant of the memory that the man had left behind while being possessed in Eun-hyeon’s soul.
“Yes. That is the correct answer.”
Joo Hyun-seong smiled bitterly and affirmed without hesitation.
