57. Clue (2)

“Eleven demon lords, now that Delite has died, there are ten remaining. In any case, the demon lords basically have equal status, but even between them, there is an implicit power gap.”

When Cha Shin Hyeon asked for information on the various demon kings, Saltion said these words.

“Since the sequence is not revealed, it is impossible to know exactly if it is not the demon king who is the party involved, but did the demons not fight the dragon blood for a long time? If you collect data from various places, you can get a sense of it to some extent. Seeing it through the eyes of a talented person who is like a magical spirit.”

“What level of Delite do you see?”

“I think it might be a bit low in the middle. Maybe 7th or 8th place.”

“A subtle ranker.”

“Of course, as I said, it’s not accurate, and it’s not a big difference that the top always beat the bottom… … .”

“I know what you mean.”

Cha Shin Hyeon nodded his head.

If you ask me, I think it would be like Moorim's teenage master. There are clear differences, but such subtle differences that it is difficult to distinguish between superiority and inferiority.

At that time, Laprize brought up an interesting story as if he had intercepted Saltion's voice.

“Even so, there are a few demon lords that the lord should be wary of. They are the so-called demon lords who are said to have received the protection of the devil.”

“A demon’s protection?”

"Yes. Since ancient times, demons have worshiped five gods, and one theory says that each god imparts power to those who fit his or her taste. I don't know if that's really the case, but demons with special powers have existed consistently since ancient times."

“Hmm.”

I couldn't help but think of it as an absurd story. Didn't the goddess and the god of the gods spray status spears on Earth right now? There may be a god in Dreadville, and he may have given power to the demons.

After Cha Shin Hyeon didn't say anything, Lafriz continued.

“Basically, the Demon King’s fighting style is no different from that of ordinary Demons. By using the power that the master has called magical power, he strengthens the body, creates physical phenomena, or uses magic. Only the quantity and quality of the yoke are different.”

“So did Delite.”

“However, demons who have received the protection of demons have different magical powers from ordinary demons. Being protected doesn't necessarily mean you're strong, but the combat style is unique, making it difficult to deal with."

“Of course, as unique as it is, it also has its weaknesses.”

Elter, who was listening quietly, added a story of his experience.

“It is said that compared to the Demon King who uses universal techniques, the Demon King who uses a unique technique is said to be prone to destruction. Since he developed his own unique characteristics, I would rather say that the countermeasures are clear.”

“Clearly, it’s bullshit. How many Jinryongs died because they couldn’t deal with it properly?”

Lafriz snorted.

His loyalty was solely towards Cha Shin Hyeon, but he didn't even look pretty with dragon blood. I just know the relationship between Cha Shin Hyeon and dragons, so I'm quiet.

Of course, the same goes for Elter. He was brainwashed by Cha Shin Hyeon and was on the same side, so he endured it, but there was no way he was happy to be with a demon who was like an enemy.

Elther growled, upset.

“The demon lord who received protection speaks as if he is invincible. Do you know that there were once or twice when we were defeated and ran away without a tail?”

“I didn’t always win. But as a result, you've all survived so far, haven't you? Where have all those handsome Jinryongs gone?”

"stop."

Cha Shin Hyeon spoke briefly. The two of them shut their mouths at the command they couldn't disobey.

“Hmmmm, anyway.”

Saltion brought out his words as if to clear up the chaotic atmosphere.

“That is the reason why we chose Rhodiac as our first target. Her fiancée will most certainly be hooked on her when she lure her Dellight as a reason, but even as a Rhodiac individual, she is one of the five demon lords who have received the protection of the demon god. She felt it was better to do it first when she could.”

“You did a good job.”

"thank you."“What is the level of Rhodiac?”

“In general, it is evaluated that it is slightly weaker than the Delite, but… … .”

At Cha Shin Hyeon's direct question, Saltion slightly blurted out the end of his speech.

“We will have to see if the evaluation is correct when all the final power is raised, for example, when the Demon Lord Spirit is activated. It has not been revealed where the bottom of the demon king who received the protection is.”

“It could be stronger.”

Saltion spoke very seriously, but Cha Shin Hyeon took it lightly.

“Then you are welcome.”

"Yes?"

Cha Shin Hyeon's eyes narrowed gently.

“If it’s weaker than Delite, it’s not worth much.”

* * *

Through such a process, Cha Shin Hyeon, who came to face Rhodiac today, was interested in a different direction from the Delite days.

Delite was like a mirror image of Cha Shin Hyeon. There was a difference between Cha Shin Hyeon being a sword and Delite being a knuckle, but both fought fiercely, mobilizing enormous aggression and magical power and clashing weapons and bodies. Although the scale was so large, it was nothing compared to fighting between the same number of warriors.

On the other hand, Rhodiac's magical power is different.

Whoops!

The dark red flames that burned all over her body were not only created, but they had real heat. Such was the nature of the yoke itself.

The flames hadn't escaped from the body as if there was still reason left, but the temperature around them was already rapidly rising.

The four demon spirits under Rhodiak, who knew the master's abilities, quickly retreated from the gap. As soon as he saw it, Cha Shin Hyeon immediately gave the order.

“Lafrise.”

“Jon name!”

Since we had made an appointment in advance, a single command was sufficient. Fourteen demons, including Lafriz, all scattered to the left and right of Cha Shin Hyeon and moved away.

immediately after that.

Aww!

The flames around Rhodiac caused a magnificent explosion.

A huge storm of heat hit the spot where Cha Shin Hyeon was standing. It was a tidal wave of flames that even the demons would have burned to death if they had not dispersed quickly.

Sadly, Cha Shin Hyeon had already jumped several tens of meters upwards. Rhodi Ak, noticing this immediately, raised his head to the sky.

The red sword wrapped in transparent blue light shimmered in the sunlight.

Baba Baba Bak!

Instead of aggression, a sword made of premonition power poured down like rain.

Rhodiac drew a rough hand towards the rain of swords. Five fingernails cut like hooks tore through the air, leaving traces of flames. Suddenly, bullets of flame protruded like musical notes from the long, dark red staves and soared upwards.

Poop Pup Pup Pup Poop Puff Puff Poop Poop Poop Poop Poop Poop Poop Poop Poop Puff Poop Poop Poop Poop Pup

Geomgi, which had advanced several times while cutting the flames, eventually oxidized without overcoming the numerical inferiority. Cha Shin Hyeon repeated the remaining fireballs lightly.

'It's like fighting a master who has a soft yeolyanggi.'

Cha Shin Hyeon personally doesn't like the naegongshim method of synthesizing yin yang or yin han gi. Until you reach a really high level—that is, the level of communal retardation?—This is because the energy in the body becomes imbalanced and some side effect occurs.

However, apart from that, the warriors who have mastered the martial arts of that type are very difficult to deal with because they use heat or cold.

Cha Shin Hyeon also had an experience of fighting for life with a man who had learned yeolyang qigong in the days of naive (?) mastery. The current fight brought back old memories.

The only difference is that Cha Shin Hyeon's level of force is incomparably higher than it was back then.

The flame of Rhodiac was also incomparably stronger than the opponent at that time.

Chii profit-

During that series of collisions, at Cha Shin Hyeon's feet, the surrounding land of Rhodiak had already turned into lava. The immense heat had melted the land nearby.

Rhodiac sprinted hard on the lava.

Whoa!

The shocked lava shook. Massive flames erupted thickly and aimed at Cha Shin Hyeon.

It was faster than a normal lava flow, but at Cha Shin Hyeon's level, it was too slow to match. By sliding sideways, he simply dodged the lava.

pop!

At that moment, the lava exploded without any sign. Fragments of burning black and red magma poured out like volcanic bombs.

Cha Shin Hyeon, who frowned slightly, moved her sword.

The sword curtain (劍幕) unfolded and became an excellent umbrella. Unable to break through the strict defense, the flames scorched the air with splendor.

On the surface, it seemed so.

“Hoo.”

Cha Shin Hyeon let out a small exclamation.

The heat of the flame that seemed to have completely blocked it had penetrated the inside of the sword curtain. He didn't get burned or anything, but his face was hot.

‘Burn your premarital power?’

It was not that the pre-human power and the magical power simply collided and disappeared, but at the moment of contact, the energy burned some of the energy.

As soon as Rhodiac began to radiate magical powers in earnest, Cha Shin Hyeon noticed that, as Laprise said, her energy was different from that of ordinary demons.

It's nothing different. The base itself was definitely the spirit of the demons.

However, there was a strange power mixed there.

It wasn't the vile energy that was rolling around. Rather, it felt like it was dyeing the aura of Rhodiac. Just like when you mix sugar with water, it tastes like sugar, not water, even though the amount of water is much higher than that of sugar.

‘I guess that’s the devil’s protection.’

It felt somewhat similar to the power of the goddess contained in the Mystic Cube. The difference was that it was not providing indirect assistance in the form of a status window, but directly helping the demon king himself.

I thought it wouldn't be a simple flame since it was mixed with such things, but I'm sure it'll burn by eating up even my preoccupation as fuel.

It is indeed the devil

With a grin, Cha Shin Hyeon opened her mouth.

“It’s tricky, though.”

Even though I have personally confirmed that the power of Rhodiac is both interesting and dangerous.

There was not even the slightest irritation in Cha Shin Hyeon's voice.

He jumped down from the air.

It was perfect for Rhodiac as he came close to a plate that would not do enough damage. She shouted as she was caught up in her madness as she barely kept her sanity.

“Shut up and die!”

The lava rose again in a tornado. The flame demon opened her mouth to swallow Cha Shin Hyeon.

This time he did not avoid it. Cha Shin Hyeon swung her sword wide.

Aaaaah!

The lava cracked openly with a refreshing sound. Cha Shin Hyeon continued to descend with plenty of room for two people to enter.

"no?!"

Although startled, Rhodiac's body reacted instinctively.

This time, not the lava, but her magical energy directly became a flame and was fired. The power was, of course, much higher than that of lava.Aww!

A pillar of flame, which would be at least 10 meters in diameter, erupted with a huge explosion. A pillar of fire rising around her passed through the place where Cha Shin Hyeon was descending and pierced the sky above.

This time I got it right.

Her eyes widened as she tried to smile madly.

Cha Shin Hyeon, who leisurely cut through the waves of flames and reached Rhodiac's nose, drew the sword horizontally.

Scratch!

A deep wound was engraved on the neck of Rhodiac, who hadtily retreated.

Whoops!

A large amount of blood spattered and a sudden fire obscured Cha Shin Hyeon's view for a moment. Rhodiak was able to replace even the form of life force in his blood with flames.

Well, even if he hadn't really struggled so desperately, Cha Shin Hyeon had no intention of attacking further. It was because I was deliberately delaying what could have completely blown away her careless neck.

“Ugh!”

“Didn’t you say that at the beginning?”

Cha Shin Hyeon kindly reminded me instead of chasing after Lodiaak, who grabbed her by the neck and hurriedly spreads the distance.

“It’s difficult in that state.”

It's not like I just stared blankly at first.

He knew his detailed abilities while fighting, but even before the fight, he knew that the magical power of Rhodiac was mixed with the protection of the demon god, that is, the power of the gods.

That's all.

Cha Shin Hyeon deals with her zen spirit. It is not the extent to which the power of God is mixed, but the power of God itself. Even if it weakened as she crossed the dimension, it did not change the nature of her premarital power.

Although the magical power of the flames produced a result of burning the pre-psychic power, it could be solved simply by increasing the pre-psychic power density. It was absurd that impure energy invaded pure energy.

It is Cha Shin Hyeon, who had the upper hand against Delite without the Demon Lord Spirit even before making the fable in the first place. I'm stronger than I was back then, so how can Rhodiac be my opponent?

"this… This guy... … .”

Whether it was pain or anger, Rhodiac trembled.

“He said he was Yu Yu-sangjong, and he looked exactly like Delight.”

Watching her closely, Cha Shin Hyeon poured her oil.

“It’s about being overconfident in my abilities.”

"Hey… … !”

In the end, Rhodiac's reason was cut off.

The moment when the hatred that developed into madness completely engulfs her mind.

Kugugugugung!

The surrounding space vibrated in unison.

The runaway yo power spread all over the surrounding area in an instant, dyeing the whole area with its own color. It was a little different from the case of Delite. A high-temperature storm blew violently in all directions, broadening the territory.

The Demon King's last resort, who neglected his life, was unfolded.

“… … .”

Cha Shin Hyeon's eyes lit up, watching the change from beginning to end.

‘That’s… … .'

His senses caught a flow that was a little different from what he had vaguely thought, but which was useful enough.

next moment.

Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

Without any warning, the room where Cha Shin Hyeon had been burst out.
