Chapter 185

66. Change (2)

With both hands, he tried to crush the tendon-like arm that was clasping his neck, squeezing it with all his might, and he struggled to kick the opponent’s torso violently.

But no matter how his slaughter rebelled, Cha Shin Hyeon’s body was immovable. Only her burning eyes, like her naturalization, stared at her coldly.

Against her intention to slaughter, her blood fortune is sucked out. Her speed was too fast. It was very difficult to deal with her blood luck as a huge, unwanted flow was forced into her body.

“Wow… … .”

It is not for nothing in Moorim that the Absorption Daebeop was designated as a Golden Magician. Even if you have similar skills to your opponent, once you catch it, it’s over. The opponent’s inner strength becomes stronger in real time, but it is difficult to properly control the inner strength because of the force that is being sucked in, so victory or defeat is obvious. The same principle was applied to the higher compatible blood luck.

The color of her zen spirit gradually darkened to the extent that she couldn’t see unless she looked closely. The chaos of black and red was gone, and now it was a bright scarlet as smooth as ruby.

With that slight change, Cha Shin Hyeon became stronger.

The gap that had narrowed widened again as her slaughter absorbed the power of the nightmare.

The rebellion of the slaughter became more futile. No matter how hard she struggled, she had no choice but to acknowledge the existence of the wall.

“this… doggish… … .”

The slaughter spit out swear words intermittently.

Instead of covering her mouth, Cha Shin Hyeon relaxed her hand slightly, as if trying to make her talk easier. It was a very leisurely act.

Of course, in the current situation, it didn’t matter if she was out of breath or not, so nothing changed. Still, the slaughter was caught by Cha Shin Hyeon, losing her blood.

“Is it still not enough? Hasn’t she already fully recovered her strength? The amount you stole far exceeds the amount that remains.”

“therefore?”

“Then I want you to stop! Are you going to come out like this until I dry up and die?”

“That’s right.”

Cha Shin Hyeon said indifferently.

“What if I let you go? Do you think you will win if you fight to death? No way. Thanks to you, that’s gone. It’s a body that will crumble to death anyway, so I don’t know if it’s shriveled to death or not.”

“You bastard… … !”

The flesh chewed his lips. A feeling of anger that could not be hidden boiled like wildfire.

“Your temperament has changed and your personality has changed. By accepting her blood fortune, her soul has changed! Now I can go anywhere and call myself a demon. No one will ever doubt it.”

“That’s it.”

Arsenic appeared on Cha Shin Hyeon’s lips.

“You, too, do not use the name of the demon of slaughter from now on. Don’t brag about your blood luck. You have lost the right to even say such a thing.”



“What, what? Dare to the subject of the rat who stole his power!”

“It seems you don’t know that the more you repeat those words, the more miserable you are. How pitiful it is to be a formation that is eaten upside down by an illusion that you just copied.”

Strength came back into the loose grip. Compared to humans, the skin of a demon, which is nothing more than a steel plate, is crushed by the evil power. A creaking sound came from the slaughter’s neck.

“Uh-huh!”

“It’s a pity that I can’t meet the truth of you guys. If we meet and kill them all, it will make me feel better.”

A demon’s body could survive without breathing for a considerable amount of time, but in the end it needed oxygen as it was a living organism. As he crossed that limit, his consciousness began to cloud over.When did a demon have ever felt this kind of pain? Losing most of the strength to resist, the slaughter, who had struggled miserably, suddenly realized something.

It’s as painful as suffocating right away, but why isn’t it dying in the end?

Are you holding up well? no.

This is what Cha Shin Hyeon is controlling. Read your pulse and just before you lose consciousness, loosen your hand slightly so that you don’t kill it, but feel the pain!

“this… cruel… … .”

“What are you talking about.”

Cha Shin Hyeon smiled softly.

“This is your way.”

Finally, even the minimum amount of blood needed to strengthen the body was sucked away. The words of the body that could no longer withstand Cha Shin Hyeon’s power were determined.

Whoops!

The carcass with a broken neck bone died as it was.

The condition of the spirit was lifted, and the empty corpse of the demonic spirit was shattered like dust with the recoil containing divine power.

“… … .”

Cha Shin Hyeon followed with her sunken eyes as the ashes drifted momentarily between her fingers. His gaze seemed indifferent and also depressed.

The battlefield was quiet.

That’s why it’s so quiet Because there was no one left to talk to.

When Cha Shin Hyeon subdued the slaughter—that is, when he grabbed hold of his head—the demons that had been spreading a wide-ranging space-moving block in the vicinity had withdrawn their magic and slipped away.

I knew, but I didn’t care. Even if only 50 of the surviving demons were combined, they were weaker than one demon, and the importance was the same.

But when I saw the slaughter, they were all gone. The only surviving demon king, Naznel, was the same. It was as if he had escaped through space movement.

“I ran away,” he said. … .”

I don’t want to die right away, so it might be a wise choice to choose to run away, but the ending must have been decided anyway. It is the instinct of living things to extend their lifespan even a little.

Today was your only chance to kill yourself. Asmodians who have lost most of their advanced power will no longer be able to mobilize the same level of troops, so they will no longer be as tired as they are today. Especially since he absorbed the power of slaughter.

I just couldn’t finish it right here, so it just got a little more annoying.

Cha Shin Hyeon, who was nervous, flew towards the fortress.

“You have won, my lord!”

Saltion, who was recovering from his injury, greeted him. The demons, who watched the battle with their breath, also came out of the fortress one by one and welcomed the return of their master.

He was trying to figure it out, but Cha Shin Hyeon, who checked the situation once more, smirked.

“The damage is great.”

Of the nearly 70 demons, only 15 survived. Laprise, who had been active in the meantime, also died in a fierce battle. The magical spirit that was called so often enough to remember his name, Saltion alone, survived.

Should I consider myself lucky to have survived even this much against three times the number of enemies? To be honest, even if everyone died, I didn’t think I would be particularly sad.

“I am only sorry that I did not live up to your expectations. It’s so overweight… … .”

“No, it was good. Just because the fortress has not been captured is enough.”

No matter how loyal they were, Cha Shin Hyeon was not foolish enough to reveal her true feelings. Cha Shin Hyeon, who praised the demons, waved his hand.

Paah!

Precious power mixed with a heart sword enveloped the demons.

There was no need to painstakingly heal wounds by squeezing out the missing energy. The energy that was lightly mixed with the power of the demon healed the body of the demons and boosted the energy that was consumed.

“Hey, this is… … .”

“Thank you, my lord!”

To the demons, the power of a demon seemed to have a special meaning. The spirits, who returned with a very long and warm feeling, showed a very strong reaction and expressed their gratitude.

“Saltion.”

“Please name it.”

“Take them and help the dragons. They don’t even have a commander anyway. Let me get you out on your own.”

“Yes!”

The demons who responded vigorously flew towards the back of the fortress with great force. It’s like 15 more demons of the same class are being put into the place where 20 dragons were blocking it, so things will be sorted out quickly.

Cha Shin Hyeon, who sent the demons, looked away.

He spoke to Elter, who was standing idly behind him.

“Good work, Elther. If you hadn’t captured Artia, the fortress would have collapsed and the demons and dragons would have been annihilated.”

“So it was desperate. Of course, compared to your performance, it’s sadly insignificant.”

Elter smiled bitterly.

“But… … .”

The hesitant white dragon wandered in search of a suitable word.

“You, what do you mean… … .”

“Did you detect it?”

Cha Shin Hyeon asked at once. Hesitating, El Ther nodded his head.

“I was skeptical, but I definitely felt it when I was healing demons a while ago. that your powers have changed once more. Unlike last time, this time… To be honest, I don’t know if that’s positive or not.”

The old change that Elther spoke of was the name at the time of the battle with Delite. When the human Cha Shin Hyeon crossed the wall of fables and transformed into a divine being, he went from mortal to immortal, and he gained premarital power.

On the other hand, the change this time was a change in premarital power. To say that the power that originates from within the divine being has changed means that the soul has been altered.

Whether the change was good or bad, Elter, who has been running for a long time, had no way of knowing… … .

“After the demon lords fell, the demon spirits that fought with you weren’t demon spirits, right? There is no way a demon stronger than the Demon King is normal.”

“They were strong demons.”

“I knew it. But now your strength is very similar to theirs. Especially with the demon who fought last.”

I didn’t think it was a good thing to have changed to resemble the power of a demon. Not the emotions he felt because he was a dragon blood, but considering the difference between humans and demons.

Cha Shin Hyeon nodded her head humbly.

“It has to be. My strength has been exhausted from repeated battles with no time to recover, and I have absorbed his strength so as not to die at the last moment.”“… Is it okay to absorb the powers of other gods carelessly?”

“It’s not okay, so this is what happened.”

If you don’t absorb blood luck, you don’t have the strength to fight right away, so you have no choice but to absorb it.

That alone would have destroyed my soul and body. It was the result of the clash of different, disparate divine powers.

As it was originally, the more blood was absorbed there, the worse the situation had to be. As the slaughter said, it was someone else’s power. As the weight of the heterogeneous force increases, the collapse accelerates.

Yes. The problem arises because it is ‘someone else’s’ power.

Wouldn’t it be solved by changing it to ‘your’ power?

It was an absurd idea, but if you don’t, you will die. Refusing to sit down and die, Cha Shin Hyeon tried to gamble and succeeded.

In other words, the assumption of slaughter is wrong.

Cha Shin Hyeon’s soul is not ‘corrupted’ by accepting and embracing the blood. He ‘altered’ the soul to create a zen spirit similar to blood luck. of one’s own will.

The changed Cha Shin Hyeon’s soul, body, and premortal power accepted blood luck as a homogeneous force rather than a heterogeneous force. Minor differences were negligible.

That is why, even though he had absorbed the power of slaughter, far from causing any problems, his energy was stable. As marriage power and blood luck merge into one.

“… … .”

After hearing the brief explanation, Elther was speechless for a moment.

“… So, I don’t know if I’m understanding it correctly.”

After a while he stuttered and asked.

“You became a demon of your own will, it sounds like that.”

“It’s not wrong at all. If you define a being who deals with blood luck as a slaughter demon, you can call me that.”

In a way, it might be right to call Cha Shin Hyeon the real thing. He can absorb the power of slaughter, but he cannot reverse it, so in other words, Cha Shin Hyeon is a higher level demon.

“This is so… … .”

Elther, who didn’t know how to treat Cha Shin Hyeon, who had become more drunk than a demon, blurted out the end of her words.

“Is there any problem?”

Elther, who had barely found the right words, asked the question. Cha Shin Hyeon, who thought deeply, answered.

“Well, it sounds like you have a mental problem rather than a physical one. Somehow, I have to say that the way I see the world has changed. Maybe a little bit closer to demons. I have a bit of a strong feeling.”

When I think about it, there was a side of him acting harshly when he killed the slaughter. If it was his normal personality, he wouldn’t have intentionally inflicted continuous pain, but I would say he’s become a little bit violent.

“But I think that’s the acceptable range. It’s true that I was annoyed with him, and I didn’t suppress those feelings and just let out a little bit.”

“If you are, then you will.”

“The essence of a demon is a demon, but not me, right? It wasn’t that the soul turned into a demon. It has only been changed to be able to wield the power of a demon.”

As if promising to himself, Cha Shin Hyeon said vigorously.

“I am human.”

From mortal to immortal, from good to demon. Even now, the unfamiliar and new power of the god fills my body and wraps around the outside of my body.

His roots were not shaken.
