Chapter 38 – Day 38

Day 38

“Really…, is it really you, Miss?”

“That’s right. I’m Seo-ah, the guardian of poor children! Ahahah-.”

Seo-ah burst into laughter as she answered the representative who asked again in a heavy voice.

At that, another kind of worry clouded the stern expressions of the nine villains.

Certainly, the face of the woman sitting on the hill of corpses revealed the face of their young lady.
Moreover, the only one who could dare call them ‘poor children’ was their Miss.

No, even if it wasn’t just those things.
The magical energy overflowing from Seo-ah now was the clearest evidence that this woman, sitting on the hill of corpses and looking down at them with a dreamy expression, was indeed their Miss.

However.

“What on earth has happened here?”

The representative asked once again, as if he truly couldn’t understand.

It was incomprehensible.
It didn’t make sense.

What on earth had happened here for their Miss to change so drastically?

The current Miss was more of a mature woman than a young girl.

Particularly, the most significant change, as expected, was in her chest area.
If in the past, the young lady’s assets were so meager that even calling them “lacking” would be an understatement, now they had undergone such an extreme transformation that even describing them as “bountiful” would be insufficient.

“Hmm, I don’t think it’s quite that extreme.”

Flinch-.

The representative trembled as Cheon Seoa spoke as if she had read his thoughts.

Seeing the representative’s intense reaction, Cheon Seoa burst into laughter once again with an “Aha-ha!” before finally speaking.

“More importantly, you know, I’m a bit lacking, so…”

Cheon Seoa said, her cheeks turning red.
At her words, confusion spread across the faces of the nine villains, including the representative.

“These insects are really not enough. So, as fellow practitioners of the same magical technique, could you all help me out? We should help each other, right?”

“Of course. Just say the word, we’ll help you with anything.”

“Aha! Really?”

“Really. After all, we’ve all received your grace. We’ll do anything to repay that debt.”

“Really? You mean it? No taking it back later, okay?”

At the representative’s answer, Cheon Seoa stood up happily.
However, in her lifeless eyes, a sadistic light seemed to leak out.

Feeling an instinctive sense of foreboding, Hyeolrangje burst out.

“Representative! Get away-!”

Keuheung-!

In an instant, Hyeolrangje, taking on the form of Insu Hyeolrang, shouted as he lunged forward.

Meanwhile, the representative still hadn’t realized what was about to befall him….

“Still, I’ll go easy on you. I can’t show my true self to those of you who are merely at the level of Geumdan-gi to Won-yeong-gi.”

Flinch-!

Cheon Seo-ah’s voice came from right in front of me.
At the same time, a spear accompanied by a sharp “shwack!” sound appeared in the Agent’s eyes, thrusting towards him.

The blade of the black spear, imbued with immense magical energy, aimed precisely at his heart.

The Agent couldn’t react at all.

It was too sudden an ambush, and he never imagined that the young lady would wield a weapon to kill him.

What saved the Agent was…

“Keuheung-!”

It was the Blood Wolf King, who had transformed into the appearance of a Blood Wolf.

The moment he kicked off the ground, the Blood Wolf King appeared between the spear thrust by Cheon Seo-ah and the Agent, letting out a rough growl as he swung both hands.

Kagagak-!

The Blood Wolf King’s sharply honed claws barely succeeded in deflecting the trajectory of Cheon Seo-ah’s spear blade.

But.

Puhwak-!

“Keok-!!”

A terrible gash was carved into his shoulder, and dark red blood spurted out like a fountain from the wound.

The Blood Wolf King forcibly swallowed the terrible pain he felt in his left shoulder and looked at Cheon Seo-ah visible beyond the blood droplets scattered in the air.

“Cry for me. Cry desperately. Cry very desperately for me. Cry with despair. With grief. With emptiness. With anger. With sadness. With fear.”

Cheon Seo-ah said with a dreamy smile, swinging her spear again.

Whoosh-!

The spear in Cheon Seoa’s hand, imbued with enough force to bend its shaft, lunges forward to strike the chest of the Blood Lord.

This time, it was the Blood Master who moved.

“I apologize, miss.”

The Blood Master, clad in black full plate mail reminiscent of a medieval knight, swung a massive greatsword created by coalescing the Blood Lord’s blood scattered in the air.

Clang-!

An unpleasant metallic sound resonates as Cheon Seoa’s ink spear clashes with the Blood Master’s enormous blood greatsword.

At first glance, the collision of these two weapons seems to be evenly matched.

However, the reality is…

“Kuh!”

Crunch-!

A suppressed groan escapes from the Blood Master’s mouth.
Simultaneously, the Blood Master’s feet sink into the ground beneath him.

How could such a slender body generate this level of monstrous strength?

The Blood Master looked at Cheon Seoa with disbelieving eyes.

He knew that Cheon Seoa was strong.
After all, hadn’t he glimpsed a fragment of that strength through the doll she had created herself?

However, despite this, the Blood Master had held onto a sliver of hope in a corner of his heart.

Although he had been defeated by the doll, hadn’t he at least exchanged blows with it?

“But, did you forget that the doll you all faced was in ‘baby mode’? Of course, I’m also in ‘baby mode’ right now, just like the doll.”

Ahahah-.

Cheon Seoa, who burst into laughter that now felt like madness, applied even more force to the hand holding the ink spear.

Crunch! Crunch!

The Blood Master’s expression became hideously distorted as he continued to withstand Cheon Seoa’s increasingly heavy ink spear.

This was beyond his limit.
His two feet had already sunk past his ankles and into his knees.

If this battle of strength continued, he would eventually be split in two and meet a terrible end.

That’s why the Blood Master’s eyes were filled with even more confusion.

Really. Really, young lady.

‘Are you planning to kill us all?’

Just as a faint fear leaked from the Blood Master who harbored such thoughts.

“Hah-!”

Cheon Seoa, feeling an intense orgasm penetrating her body, let out a moan and staggered backward.

Breathing heavily, Cheon Seoa savored the lingering pleasure.

Ah, as expected.

“Rather than those insect-like criminals, the emotions of a fellow修仙者, even if it’s a divine vessel, are much more intense.”

Haa-. Haa-.

Cheon Seoa said, breathing heavily.

At some point, her cheeks had turned incredibly red. Had she experienced such pleasure recently?

Ah, how proud.
Those poor children, to have grown up and made me so happy.

Indeed.

“I suppose I should give you a proper reward in return?”

Something changed.

The moment her cheeks, which had been flushed bright red, returned to their original color, the voice flowing from her mouth changed subtly.

Could it be that she’s come to her senses?

As some villains who harbored such hope looked at Cheon Seoa.

“If you don’t stop me, you’ll really die.”

Repulsion.

Kuuung-.

Cheon Seoa, who appeared behind the Sword Demon, points at him with her finger and speaks.
With that, the space between Cheon Seoa and the Sword Demon began to be pushed away.

The Sword Demon, caught in the displacement of that space, was flung away, unable to resist the flow of that enormous repulsive force.

“Kyaak-!”

“Damn it!”
“Everyone, charge!”
“Surviving is the priority for now!”

The Blood Wolf Emperor, who had already recovered from his wounds, let out a rough howling and charged towards Cheon Seoa.

Whether Cheon Seoa had come to her senses or not was not important.
What mattered in this situation was that if they didn’t subdue Cheon Seoa, they would be in danger.

The nine villains who had made that judgment moved simultaneously.

The Blood Wolf Emperor charged forward with sharp fangs.
The sight created an illusion as if hundreds of wolves were rushing in at once.

“No, it wasn’t an illusion.”

Cheon Seoa said with a smile that was no longer dreamy, but rather innocently pure and naive.

Behind the Blood Wolf Emperor charging towards her, hundreds of wolves were following.

Those weren’t mere illusions.
Each and every one of them was a storm of physical force.

If surrounded by those hundreds of wolves, even a fellow Transcendent of the same level would be torn to shreds.

However, the Blood Wolf Emperor’s attack was merely a signal flare.

“Eek! I won’t hold back anymore either!”

The Sword Demon, who had always been pondering how to debut the young lady as a ‘VTuber’,
Drew his sword and charged in.

In no time, a vast ocean spread out around her, and soon a massive whirlpool created by the Sword Demon’s sword movements engulfed Cheon Seoa.

Additionally, the Digester, who had mastered the Three Eyes Three Disasters technique, caused a massive earthquake beneath Cheon Seoa’s feet.
The Asura, instantly transformed into a six-faced monster, charged in with nine hands each gripping a different weapon.

The Seven Sword Emperor also rushed in, drawing all seven swords that form the Seven Desire Swords.
The Mara Monk strived to ‘subdue’ Cheon Seoa while forming various seals.
The Agent unleashed a storm accompanied by fire and wind.
And finally, the Heart Devourer and the Blood Master joined in as well.

All nine villains desperately squeezed out their strength and launched an attack towards Cheon Seoa.

Really.

“As a senior, it’s always touching to see juniors grow. Especially achieving this much on a land like Earth where spiritual energy is scarce. It’s truly admirable. However.”

‘That’s that, and this is this, right?’

Cheon Seoa smiled gently and thrust her spear.

Slowly.
So very slowly.
Cheon Seoa thrust her spear at a speed that seemed like even a 3-year-old child could dodge.

As Cheon Seoa demonstrated an action that seemed so meaningless, the eyes of the nine villains who were attacking her filled with confusion.

“One Flash.”

Flash-!

From the blade of the silent spear Cheon Seoa thrust, a black light burst forth with the force to devour the world.

* * *

“I ended up showing an unsightly appearance.”

Once a place where Muganok matches were held.

But now, all of that has been blown away, leaving only the nine unconscious villains and Cheon Seoa in the space.

Looking down at the nine unconscious villains, Cheon Seoa muttered as if apologetic.

“Haa, I didn’t expect their pent-up frustration to explode like that.”

Cheon Seoa said with a deep sigh.

No, perhaps it was to be expected.

Since coming to Earth, Cheon Seoa had never once tasted ‘defeat’.

While she was in Daemacheon, it didn’t particularly matter since the space that formed Daemacheon itself was ‘negative’.

No, perhaps it was because of that that such ‘twisted’ frustrations burst out like this.

Therefore, Cheon Seoa.

“I should find the branch sects belonging to the Ascension Gate.”

If such frustrations were to burst out again in this way, Cheon Seoa would resolve them through the branch sects she found in advance.

At least, rather than grinding up hundreds or thousands of ordinary humans to extract negativity, it would be more effective to extract negativity from cultivators who had mastered martial arts, even if fewer in number.

However.

“First, I should apologize to these children.”

Muttering so, Cheon Seoa gently stroked the heads of the nine unconscious villains.
