Death (feat. Namgoong Yoon)

Namgung Yun.

The granddaughter of the Martial Arts Alliance Leader.

She was a genius.

No one her age could stand against her, and that was indeed the case. Even compared to adults, she was unmatched.

But she encountered a wall.

The Demonic Cult.

The Little Heavenly Demon.

Chun Yura.

The next Demon Lord, who had reached the Flower Realm, a realm she herself had not yet attained.

The next generation’s Demon Lord would undoubtedly be Chun Yura.

Someone of a similar age to herself.

Not yet an adult.

She hadn’t anticipated that the existence of the Little Heavenly Demon, hidden by the Demon Sect, would be so impactful.

The Flower Realm was a state where one manifested oneself through Inner Force, requiring not only talent but also self-understanding through introspection.

Experience was inevitably important, and that experience generally came from communication with others. By learning the distance between oneself and others through communication, the Flower Realm would ripen.

The Flower Realm was the state of understanding oneself and imbuing one’s Martial Art with one’s own color.

In the 21st century, the mechanism for reaching the Flower Realm had been vaguely revealed, but even looking back over the past 1000 years, there were only a handful of cases where someone had reached the Flower Realm.

And those cases had generally sparked innovation in the technical system of Martial Art.

‘I’ve heard that the more introverted a person is, the easier it is to reach the Flower Realm, but…’

Even considering that, Chun Yura’s existence was shocking.

Namgung Yun, who had always looked down on her peers after reaching the pinnacle of mastery, looked up at a peer for the first time.

She had proposed changing the form of war to a tournament format to reduce the damage, but Chun Yura’s power was a hindrance.

The idea of holding a tournament to reduce unnecessary damage from war had been planned for some time.

She had heard rumors that the Little Heavenly Demon was in Full Dive, but she really hadn’t expected her to be that strong.

‘I’m going to lose.’

Namgung Yun couldn’t picture herself winning against Chun Yura.

Among the martial artists who had logged into Full Dive, few had reached the Flower Realm, let alone the pinnacle of mastery.

Full Dive was a game.

And games were for kids.

To martial artists who had distanced themselves from electronic devices to reach enlightenment, Full Dive looked like child’s play.

Namgung Yun had thought so too.

Until she logged into the game at a friend’s whim.

Anyway,

She knew even without fighting.

Namgung Yun knew her place well enough not to ignite her competitive spirit when the gap between her and her opponent was so obvious.

And her position too.

And the repercussions of losing.

“….”

‘It’s better not to place too much emphasis on individual victories.’

Hero Tournament.

Namgung Yun was personally reviewing the plans for the tournament.

The decision would have to be discussed with Chun Yura, but she had drafted the plan with that in mind.

She wished there were people in the Martial Arts Alliance Clan who could be entrusted with this kind of work, but she couldn’t honestly call them excellent.

The excellent but old-fashioned seniors despised Full Dive.

The Martial Arts Alliance Clan was made up of slackers who had run away from training.

“Haa…”

She couldn’t help but sigh.

Just then,

She received a text message from the Clan Leader, and the message contained a link.

Following the link, a page opened with nine paid videos.

<Martial Arts Alliance Clan Leader>

[You might want to watch these.]

“….”

Paid videos.

She read the descriptions.

Anonymous.

The term Anonymous referred to someone who hadn’t revealed their name, but in this case, it was being used to refer to a specific person.

She had heard rumors, but she had never seen Anonymous’s combat videos.

She had heard they were amazing.

She had heard it recently.

Just a few months ago, there had been a commotion that Anonymous, who hadn’t even known swordsmanship, had defeated the Death Knight, who was comparable to the Flower Realm.

She had dismissed it as nonsense, but everyone seemed to believe it.

And the basis for that belief was a video posted on something called a community, and Namgung Yun wasn’t very familiar with videos.

Even though there was video evidence as the basis for belief, she considered it insufficient.

Namgung Yun was born in an era where YouTube and K-pop were rampant, but she was an old-fashioned girl who had only focused on training without using the internet or social media.

In reality, if you gave her a phone, she would only use it as a means of communication.

“….”

Namgung Yun examined the titles of the videos on the page.

[Succubus]

[Nuclear Explosion]

[100]

[Death Knight]

[Demon Beast Garden]

[Knights]

[Death Knight 2]

[Death Knights]

[Bonus – Duel Arena]

‘Anonymous, huh.’

She had recently heard the news that Anonymous had fought and won against the Death Knight.

[Death Knight]

Is this it?

“Is this how you do it?”

Namgung Yun clumsily paid 1000 Gold for the paid video.

Anonymous fights the Death Knight.

From the beginning, she maximizes her Magical Power and exchanges blows with the Death Knight.

Strength for strength.

Speed for speed.

As they exchanged attacks in place, the aftermath erupted in all directions.

Anonymous’s lightning.

The Death Knight’s slashes.

Engulfed the Hero nearby.

A violent and unrestrained exchange of blows.

However, the exhilarating sense of impact gave viewers the pleasure of watching.

Viewers left comments, some cheering for Anonymous, some for the Death Knight. Comments became aggressive, questioning why anyone would cheer for an Undead, but they were soon blocked.

In the quieted comment section, comments began to appear one by one again.

• Isn’t that the one we saw before?

• Seems like it, judging by the shape of the armor?

• The sword has become much calmer, but that’s definitely the Death Knight we saw before.

• Yeah. Undead like the Death Knight accumulate power as they die. That’s why he was fighting carelessly and fighting like he did at first. The reason he’s not just dying is because he’s still a Death Knight.

• But why isn’t he fighting carelessly now?

• Did he come to his senses after being properly educated?

Then.

A kick.

The Death Knight flew away.

While attention was focused in that direction, some still looked at Anonymous.

A silhouette protected by anonymity.

The neck was divided.

Soon, they overlapped.

• ???

• What did I just see?

• You must have seen it wrong.

• Would we all see it wrong?- Kicked him with his head cut off.

Anonymous had her neck cut off by the Death Knight and kicked him away while beheaded.

As proof, Anonymous’s hair, which had not been visible in Anonymous’s silhouette, fell and scattered on the floor.

• ???????

• ??????

• ?????????

• ????

There was no explanation.

Anonymous clashed with the Death Knight again.

She swung her sword to kill her opponent.

The sword strikes were too fast, and the Magical Power in the sword was so dense that it left a dark afterimage.

The arm’s shape wavered like noise.

She even mixed fakes into the sword strikes.

The Death Knight used very defensive swordsmanship, and Anonymous was intent on breaking through the defense, but a gap. As soon as it appeared, a counterattack.

The Death Knight launched sharp attacks from within his solid defense.

Then.

Crack.

Anonymous kicked the Death Knight in the abdomen.

At a somewhat awkward timing, the Death Knight flew away and slashed as he flew.

At Anonymous’s ankle,

He took it.

• Fast…

• I missed it even watching at 0.5x speed

• Are these guys crazy?

• Is this a master’s fight?

• Oh. The foot…! It’s growing back!

But Anonymous’s foot regenerated.

• Is that a person or a Monster.

• What to do. Because of Anonymous, I’m starting to not see her as a person.

• She’s human, right?

• No, don’t say that too harshly. She must have learned Divinity from the Temple!

• What about the severed neck?

• …Let’s just say we saw it wrong.

• How could her arm move when her neck was cut off?

• Because she’s an Electrical Ability user, she uses Electricity to connect… I’ve never seen anyone like that in reality;;

• Kicked a hole in the Death Knight’s armor with her footㅋㅋㅋ

Rustle.

Armor fragments fall.

A hole was pierced in the Death Knight’s abdomen.

Revealing black skin.

The comment section exploded with comments from people who realized that the Death Knight’s bare skin was a woman’s.

It was blocked.

Spoilers were also blocked.

Those who had seen other Death Knight videos in advance left Spoilers, but

• (This comment has been blocked.)

The comment was blocked.

• I guess her identity will be revealed later.

• If she’s a Death Knight, she’s an old Sword Master.

• I memorized all the Sword Master’s names.

Silence.

The Death Knight was silent from the shock of having her armor pierced,

Anonymous took the time to regenerate her ankle.

In the meantime.

Water rose.

It becomes a Water Sea.

• What is it.

• Magic?

• Anonymous can use Magic now?

• Swordsmanship, Magic, Awakened Ability

• What can’t she do.

And Frost.

Of course, it didn’t work on the Death Knight and instead created an opportunity for her to counterattack.

However, it left a deep impression on the viewers.

Recently, Anonymous’s ability has been revealed to be Electricity, and the identity of the Frost has been speculated to be the Nine Yin Severed Meridians, creating interest in Geass.

The feat of drawing ice from the surface of the water, which at first glance seemed like an Awakened Ability, aroused curiosity.

Apart from that,

• Ah, she’s flying away.

• She lost.

• After all, she’s still no match for the Death Knight who’s giving it her all.

Anonymous flew away and crashed into a cliff.

The Death Knight, who had followed immediately, plunged her sword.

Anonymous quickly responded to avoid the crisis.

“This is…”

Namgung Yun understood. Why Chun Yura had allowed others to participate.

Chun Yura had said this.

‘If we hold a tournament, she’ll come. She knew how to fight with her life on the line.’

The target is Anonymous.

She sensed it instinctively.

Even with her neck cut off and her ankle lost, she didn’t die, using all her abilities.

“…Anonymous.”

A Hunter Hero, was it?

Namgung Yun slightly regretted finding out about Anonymous so late.

If she had known in advance, she might have gone to meet her before sitting in this position.

Unlike Chun Yura, who was in the position of the Little Heavenly Demon, Anonymous was a figure in the Hunter world. She was an opponent who would not have any influence on real-world politics.

She could purely ask for a duel.

Not that she was arrogant, but

Apart from Chun Yura and the Sword Masters, she was confident that she could dare to discuss who was the best in the world.

The end of the pinnacle of mastery.

The wall of the Flower Realm.

She had a strange conviction that if she fought Anonymous, she would be able to overcome that wall.

‘No…’

Just watching the video, something passionate was about to overflow.

Namgung Yun continued watching the video.

She left a comment.

• Anonymous fighting!

At that time, during the chase.

The Death Knight endured and attacked.

Anonymous countered as if she had been waiting for it.

Anonymous created a waterspout, freezing the water and the Death Knight at once.

It broke immediately, but

The video ended with the Giant Magic Sword falling in that gap.

“….”

Namgung Yun turned her attention to the other videos.

But she didn’t pay for them.

Tower 1st floor walkthrough video.

She decided to watch them in order, starting with the first video Anonymous had uploaded.
