“I will do it!!!”
When he shouted at the top of his voice, Wang Mo-ryeok, who was about to run, flinched.
“What is it?”
“Since the senior said he would concede then I as a junior should be grateful. I will spar!”
“…Uh? Um, right?”
“Yes. Please give me a moment. To do my best…”
“Oh. Waiting huh.”
When the other party agreed, Seol-Hwi sighed in relief. If he had just rushed in, it would have been a mess.
The old man was someone skilled. If it was unavoidable, a concession had to be made.
I will have to try.
Seol-Hwi’s head turned as he tried to calm his breathing and keep an eye on the old man.
If he thought about it, this fight was not without an answer. Even though the opponent was a warrior on the level of Supreme Demon, wasn’t he also someone who had recently leveled up?
Also there was the technique he obtained after having climbed to Peak Demon.
If he made use of the three chances he was being given, the enemy might back down.
Maybe this was worth fighting.
“Come on, draw.”
On the other hand, the old man looked happy.
He was swaying his hips, raising his hands up and down above his head, and twisting his body to the point where Seol-Hwi wondered if this old man was the same person.
Shhh
The moment he was taken aback by the frivolous actions, he clenched.
That’s a strategy. I cannot be shaken with this.
He could not lose in this obvious fight. So he made up his mind and raised his energy to make sure to be ready for the opponent.
Martial Supreme Peak Wind God—
It would be Seol-Hwi’s first move.
“Haaah.”
The fight began in earnest.
Seol-Hwi quickly closed the distance with his head lowered.
He stretched out his hand to his stomach as it passed very clearly.
Puak
But it wouldn’t reach, the old man quickly crossed his arms to block the attack.
Still, it was enough to do this.
“It is done.”
Kwaaang!
Dozens of streaks of lightning stretched out from the hand of Seol-Hwi.
A black storm was created at the same time. Even when killing the Supreme Pavilion Lord the power was controlled with the waves being released around him.
Kukuku!
This black storm grew several times larger than Wang Mo-ryeok’s body and consumed him in an instant.
His body was pushed back.
Kwakwang!
The old man bumped into the wall. He hit the ceiling and then ended up stuck to the floor.
Kukukukung!
The black storm subsided after creating a good number of cuts into the wall.
I won.
Seol-Hwi felt excited.
He beat a Supreme Demon warrior. This Martial Supreme Peak Wind God was truly a wonderful technique.
Even if it was used as a defensive technique, this much would be good enough, and if this was used when using his sword, it would be a lot more formidable than this. It might even be formidable enough to destroy heaven and earth.
Shhh
But, the moment the smoke and rumble settled, a scream could suddenly be heard from within.
“Ohhh.”
It was hard to tell whether it was crying or laughing.
And the old man came out from the smoke walking side to side.
Ah!
Seol-Hwi felt scared. The opponent was alive and fine.
Half his clothes were torn on his body, and there were a few wounds, but it was mostly just his clothes being scratched a bit too much.
There were no signs of bones being broken or any serious injuries.
“You brat, you can do it huh! That was good! The attack just now was the kind of one which one needs to use!”
“…”
“Two more chances left? Come on, come at me. I’m looking forward to this one now!”
“Kuahahaha,” was how he laughed.
As I thought…
This guy is insane.
No, he is not human.
How on earth was he born in this land, and how could he be strong enough to handle such an attack?
“What? You won’t? Then should I do it then?”
Wang Mo-ryeok frowned and asked.
Seol-Hwi felt scared when he heard that but soon came to his senses.
“I will! Two more left right?”
He thought about it after using it.
He needed to find a way.
Since this martial art didn’t work, I have to unleash a stronger martial art.
Then, there is just one way—
Heavenly Detention Ice Fire Storm.
With this, he had to beat him down in one go.
“…What are you doing?”
When his opponent began to take off his slippers, Wang Mo-ryeok titled his head. Wasn’t this a bizarre thing to do when fighting?
“I will come. One minute.”
Seol-Hwi immediately put the shoes back on, and erased ‘↕’ right then.
[Heavenly Detention Ice Fire Storm]: → ← ↑ ↓ ↓ ↑ ↓ A or B He thought while he checked the movements in the table,
You will not be able to stop this.
He was sure, no definitively sure.
As a result of the last test with the technique, this surely had higher attack power than Sura Exploding Flame Arts.
It was a fearsome martial art that would turn anyone into ice and flame upon contact.
Moreover, it was the best against people who are great with endurance.
“Let’s start.”
“Uh. Come here.”
Clack
Seol-Hwi drew his sword at the time and calmed himself.
And in an instant, he was running quickly back and forth. Ha. Ha. He implemented the action.
“Haa!”
With a cry he extended the sword.
…?
At the same time, the old man was shocked.
It must have worked, right?
However, when it was first released, it looked like an ordinary attack, but then the color around it suddenly changed.
This was dangerous.
He felt that way when the body had already reached its peak. Wang Mo-ryeok gathered the energy flowing around.
Saaaa-
Watching the attack turn white, he immediately released the energy.
And he saw it—
The airflow of white ice crystals and then the small flame-like embers around him.
Kwaang!
This martial art which extended like a sword piercing the wall, the ice qi which froze everything—after that, the flame qi was delivered right then.
Ddddud!
The surrounding area where Seol-Hwi raised his sword began to shake along with the wind shaking, and the basement of the library was about to collapse.
“Ah…!”
And the bright face of Seol-Hwi changed.
It was the end of the attack.
There, the opponent smiled strangely as if appreciating it and then started clapping.
Clap! Clap!
“Wow! This is great! I might die if I had to stop it!”
“Avoiding… Why are you avoiding it!”
Seol-Hwi felt it was unfair because of this.
The opponent decided to dodge the attack instead of defending against it. This hit could have killed him!
“No, this bastard didn’t even have common morals when it comes to fighting! Hey! So you want me to be hit with something like this?”
Of course, this martial art surely has such a strong attack power.
Just looking at it, what would happen if he chose to block it? When a sword was flying at them, would anyone stick their neck out instead of running?
Even if it meant to give up one of the three choices, avoiding martial arts like this was the right decision.
“Now, last one.”
Wang Mo-ryeok who stood across from him wiggled his fingers.
“…”
Seol-Hwi was silent.
One attack was blocked and the other was avoided.
There was no attack that he could execute that would be stronger than those.
His only other special ability was Annihilation of All Things, but he didn’t know how to trigger it.
Then—
“Come on.”
When Wang Mo-ryeok shouted again, Seol-Hwi put his hands on his thighs.
He really didn’t want to use it like this but—
This was the last thing left for him. Seol-Hwi brought his hands down and bowed down—
Respectfully.
“I apologize!”
“…What?”
Wang Mo-ryeok’s eyes widened.
“Even with eyes I managed to not recognize a master! I messed around too much! Please forgive me!”
The kid who had been trying to kill him decided to shout and get on his knees.
“You, what are you…”
Blink
In the eyes of the old man, one could see his spirit raging.
His excitement was broken. His blood which had been boiling so much for a long time had cooled down.
They were trying to fight until the end, and now he says all this?
It would have been different if they were fighting properly from the start, but after he attacked twice, he then asked to run away?
“I realized it late. But I have learned that nothing is too late. I, Seol-Hwi, sincerely apologize for my earlier rudeness towards the elder….”
“When you think it is late, it is extremely late.”
“Ah, elder….”
“Um. Then, let’s do three concessions. I will go.”
Wang Mo-ryeok rolled up his arms.
As long as the excitement he had to fight was broken and his clothes had been turned to rags, he was thinking of stepping on his opponent.
Seol-Hwi felt like he was losing his mind at the plan the opponent had.
“I-I want to live! Now I have just one life left! if I die now, I am finished!”
“What are you saying? Doesn’t everyone have just one life?”
Sssss!
Energy was gathering in his chest.
It felt bright and warm.
It was a high level of energy for a martial art which Seol-Hwi couldn’t do.
Martial Divine Fist.
Seol-Hwi noticed it.
It was a fist which would pierce anything. And if he got hit, it would be death. Block with his sword and it would break. Block with his body, and it would bounce back.
Ah!
It was a fist technique that could be said to be second to none. The strong fist came at him.
This felt like what Goo Jong-myung had used.
“Let’s get hit.”
Wang Moo-ryeok’s words were barely audible.
Seol-Hwi’s survival instinct, which had been right at predicting his death, made him swing the long blade.
<Super Absorption Long Blade is being used.>
Puak! Tag!
The power of a divine weapon was absolute. He twisted the flying fist in a different direction now.
Woong!
Even so, Seol-Hwi moved.
The fist was blocked, but the force it held couldn’t be blocked with the weapon.
Tang! Tang!
Seol-Hwi was pushed back, pinned against the wall, and fell forward.
“S-save…”
“Okay. A spicier one this time.”
Without even caring to listen to Seol-Hwi, green energy rose up from the old man’s fist. This one was much stronger compared to the last.
The fist came at him like it would cut straight through him.
There was no other way.
I need to use Unified Elimination Demonic Martial Arts.
Seol-Hwi was ready.
He drew the airflow and tried to use the enhanced energy with it.
Puak! Puak! Puak!
At that moment, his eyes flashed.
The fist ran rampant along with kicks and punches.
What was certain was that if he lost now, all he would see was the floor.
“Kul. Kul. I should have pushed the fist within, but this hurts…”
He was mocking while waving his fists. No matter how much he got hit, when he gave a chance to Seol-Hwi, this was too much.
“You… fucked up old man!”
In the end, Seol-Hwi couldn’t stand it and spat out abusive language, making the old man frown.
He felt bad and he had sincerely apologized to the person who was spitting fists.
“Look at you kid. You didn’t even think to thank the old man for giving you such a chance… what?”
Ching!
However, Seol-Hwi was angry, his face was already swollen, and he drew his sword.
“You are dead! Fucking baldie! I will not leave you alone!”
In his right hand was the Extreme Wind Supreme Demon Sword and the left had the Super Absorption Long Blade.
If the situation was like this, then he had to take out the secret weapons!
“B-baldie?”
His reaction was odd, making Seol-Hwi think,
Did I say something I shouldn’t have…
Seol-Hwi too began to think back, but apologizing at this point will not do any good. Putting aside his pride and apologizing didn’t make the old man listen to him.
“Ahhhh!”
Green light shone around the old man.
This felt different.
Seol-Hwi felt that it was a super strong skill which only those of the Supreme Demon level could do.
So he had to decide—
Before it got too late.
Combat Method <AI>
Did he consider this a huge risk?
The combat method changed in an instant. The body moved back with the AI taking over.
“Hmm.”
The AI looked around and then at him.
It will be possible if it is you.
Thinking so to himself he looked at the AI.
“You… Did you apologize to him?”
-…?
He stayed still. What was with this?
“You cannot win in this physical condition. Just get beaten mercilessly if you decide to attack.”
-You bastard! You said we were equal! You said this would be worth it! What nonsense was this now?
“That is why, you should have fucking bent him in half when he gave you the three chances.”
-How do you do that!
“A consistent Martial Supreme Peak Wind God! It would have been done if you did it three times in a row!”
Seol-Hwi couldn’t answer.
Come to think of it, he was too careless since the opponent gave three chances. And he judged the opponent would always block the attack.
It was then—
The AI bowed again.
“Hahaha! I will apologize again. A perfect apology with the utmost sincerity…!”
“I will kill you this time!”
Wooong!
The man changed.
—with a green hue around his body which looked like he was a divine being.
And then the AI changed the topic.
“Then how about we do this? How about a recipe to get your hair to grow back. Would you like to take a look at this?”
-What… that guy. He has gone full on insane.
At his words the AI frowned.
And he knew—
That he too had been through this.
“Fuck, then let’s just try it. Come here. I will pull out the rest of the hair you have!”
