For several days, the horse didn’t come.

Does that mean that someone else came during the free time? No one came.

Wow, my goodness.

That’s what they advertised!

I guess you’re busy watching the promotion matches. It’s a once a year event, right?

I can understand.

Even this time, there was someone who rose from the very bottom to beat everyone in the promotion match.

Fame.

He even decided to challenge Cheonma.

The Cheonmasingyo was burning with bets on how high he would go. At first, I thought it was about that high, but when I thought about it, there was little entertainment in this world.

If such a provocative incident were to occur at that time, I would be too busy watching it.

I can watch from the perspectives of the two people, as well as the perspective of the harvester who is watching from there, but that’s not So-oh, right?

If you want to get stronger, you have to watch high level matches.

So on the last day of the promotion battle where Oh Myeong-seong fought Cheonma, I held So-oh’s hand and headed to the village.

As you enter the village, the entrance is bustling with people.

There are so many people on the streets that it makes you wonder where all these people came from.

It seems like even more than last year.

“and.”

Soo-oh exclaims from the side. Have you never experienced a crowd of people?

No. If I search my memory, there is. When I worked at Cheonmasingyo, there were many kids of similar age who gathered together. Since I lived there while being bullied, I guess it’s okay to be around a lot of people.

I know that if you’re not very social, you’ll be scared of just a lot of people, but it doesn’t seem to be that bad.

Not long after we entered with Soo-oh, Insimwon approached us right away.

“Are you here?”

“It wouldn’t be strange if you came today, right?”

Insimwon nodded to my question. The confrontation between Cheonma and Oh Myeongseong.

He knows that this isn’t just a fight between a demon and a challenger.

It’s a battle between harvesters.

A fight between those who use me as a weapon. Of course, I’ve seen similar things, but they were using their own abilities, not picking me out and using me as a weapon.

“I will guide you to a good seat.”

“Let’s go.”

I wanted to watch from afar, but when I was told to go to a place with a good view, I nodded my head in agreement.

This is networking.

lol.

So I headed to the stadium with Soo.

The stadium isn’t really a place with seating for spectators, it’s just a plaza with a large open space in the middle. The best seats are in the tall buildings in that plaza.

It’s originally a place where high-ranking believers live, but on days like this, it seems like they just take it away.

Yes. It’s not like I’m borrowing it separately. I’m just pushing it forward with force and power.

I like it very much.

It’s in places like this that I shine.

In a society where violence is prioritized, you can gain immediate power. It’s an attractive bait.

Then, shouldn’t you come to me and harvest it quickly?

I headed to the top floor, pondering the matter, and entered a room with a window looking out onto the square.

“Wow, first snow. This place is awesome.”

I guess the inside is more interesting than the people outside.

Haven’t you seen a better interior than this while working at Soodo?

Or maybe I was so nervous at the time that I didn’t have time to appreciate it.

That was a place where a child would die if he or she was not careful.

If you can’t adapt, you die, if you make a mistake, you die, and if a high-ranking believer is in a bad mood, you get killed for fun.

It’s not a natural world, but it’s natural in the Cheonmasingyo.

Since he was born and raised in that kind of world, it is highly likely that Soo will grow up in a similar way.

It’s hard to forget what you learn in childhood, right?

Just as it is natural for someone who grew up suffering from child abuse to pass on the violence they experienced to their children, it is natural for people in the Cheonmasingyo cult to pass on such ideas to their children.

Of course, there are some people who would do the same to their children if they were abused themselves. But which one is more common?

There are more people who are not aware than those who are aware.

Just one or two unusual people.

Malice spreads more easily and travels further.

Even people who have learned that way don’t even realize that they are doing bad things, because it is the natural thing to do.

And that’s how you can easily ruin people and then manipulate them.

Why do bad habits arise in the military?

Bad habits that once disappeared are coming back. Even in places where the military is not present, people are being harassed like in the military.

That’s because it’s fun and enjoyable to do, and it breaks people down so they listen to you more easily.

Power is sweet.

I like that sweetness. That’s what drives me to harvest my warmth. If the majority of people were morally right, I would be more active in taking warmth from life.

But most people live their lives driven by instincts and impulses.

Hehehe.

A world where many people are uncomfortable with this very fact is a good world. I wish the whole world was like that.

“First snow, let’s keep something like this at home too!”

At that moment, Soo-oh shouted like that from his soft bed.

“I’m not going home.”

“Ah. Yeah. That’s right.”

The house is rectangular, with the short corners being shorter than the shortest corner of the bed.

Of course, I can change it by talking to Cheonma, but I don’t really want to change it. If I want to, I have to talk to Cheonma directly.

Once you have a desire, it’s quite enjoyable to fulfill it. It would be good to experience something like this once.

And there are also cases where you get it without thinking and have to throw it away because something doesn’t fit.

“Starting soon.”

I said as I looked out the window. There was a crowd of people gathered around the square, and among them stood a blue-skinned woman in black and a white man with purple hair.

The commentator introduced the challengers first in a loud voice.

And next, let me introduce you to Cheonma.

Then, when introducing Oh Myeong-seong, people who had only cheered now bow down and shout “Cheonse”.

Soo is amazed by the status of Cheonma and stares at the sight as if in a trance.

And after the two sides exchanged greetings, they drew their swords and the fight began.

bang!

There is a loud noise that sounds like swords clashing, and a shockwave explodes, sending people surrounding the square flying.

“Oh my god… … .”

Insimwon, who was standing next to me, let out an exclamation of awe.

And as if it was a greeting at first, Cheonma and Oh Myeongseong’s swords quickly moved and collided with each other.

When the swords collide, there is an unmistakable loud noise, and when the blades collide, sparks fly like a chainsaw.

1st, 2nd, 3rd.

Cheonma and Oh Myeongseong gradually increased their speed, and by the second fusion, I could no longer keep up with them with my eyes.

But I have a sense of smell, so I know how many times they bounce off each other.

Sometimes, the arm of Omyeongseong bounces twice, but the arm of Cheonma bounces once. What is this?

I remember how to fight, but I don’t understand it, so I don’t know how well I fight.

In the first place, I couldn’t see it with my eyes.

6-fold, 7-fold, 8-fold

And Soo is watching it as if he’s being sucked in. No, it’s not just Soo. Gapjae is on top of the outpost, and Byungil is about 50 degrees clockwise from where I am, watching the fight as if he’s possessed.

And 10 times.

Cheonma and Oh Myeongseong fell far away as if they were bouncing off each other.

And then a purple light rose from the swords on both sides.

But there is one strange thing.

The point where Soo’s focus is directed is slightly above the tip of the sword that I can see.

It’s not just Soo-man, but Gap-jae, Byeong-il, and In-sim-won too.

There is something bigger than what I see.

I mean, it’s impossible for me to even see the thing called Qi. Is that why magic seemed so bland in the first world?

Maybe that’s why I couldn’t use Rebecca’s body properly.

While thinking that, the two people collide again.

Of course, it is no longer visible from my perspective looking from afar, and can only be felt with the senses of those who can see it or the person involved.

Instead of two people fighting, the sound echoes through the middle of the square, as if two huge pieces of heavy equipment were colliding.

There are hardly any people surrounding the square now.

Because from the moment the purple light rose and hit them once, most people lost consciousness and fell to the ground.

And then the continuous shock waves cause it to roll around and roll to the other side of the plaza.

But there are those who are awake.

If you see someone with the eyes of a Heavenly Demon, it means they are all skilled.

Now the sound of the swords clashing sounds almost like a continuous vibration.

A fight where if you make even the slightest mistake, not only will your limbs fly off, but your body will evaporate.

But surprisingly, the fight itself ended cleanly.

This is because when 279 haps passed based on the standard of Cheonma, they retreated farther away from each other.

I thought the fight was about to start again, but Oh Myeong-seong grabbed both of my hands.

“My defeat. Thank you for teaching me.”

Unlike when it started, the surroundings were very quiet, so the sound could be heard here.

Then, Cheonma praised his skills and gave him the position of Gwangmyeongusa.

At the same time, shouts praising the Heavenly Horse resounded in all directions.

So I couldn’t listen to the two of them talking anymore. I thought I was done watching. I slapped Soo-oh’s back, who was still blankly staring out the window.

“Go back home.”

“I want to go meet Musabu!”

The backlash came immediately.

So-oh is now looking like he’s dying to go to Cheon-ma and tell him what just happened. In-sim-won next to him is smiling bitterly. He’s saying that it’s none of his business.

“If you want to approach a tired person, you can go.”

Soo thinks deeply about what I say. Is there anything to worry about? I said that to tell him to be aware of what choice he is making.

In other words, I told him to think about the other person. But given So-oh’s personality, it’s natural for him to ignore it. He’s been more rebellious lately, and since they’re family, it wouldn’t be strange if he started pushing his own ego.

“Yeah. That’s enough for today. Let’s go back.”

That’s weird.

Soo-oh didn’t ignore what I said.

Instead, Soo grabbed my hand. Strangely, Soo’s hand was shaking.

Thinking that the current situation was difficult to understand, I went back home with Soo.
