***

The commander-in-chief did not give the enemy time to prepare.

He ran like a wild beast, and with each step he took, a thick poison emanated several steps ahead.

The uninvited guests ran here and there to avoid the hand of the Commander-in-Chief, but among the people here, the Governor was the only one who knew much about Cheonmagung.

One member who narrowly escaped the gunnery was caught.

Daewon’s neck was broken and he died without even being able to utter a single scream.

Purple spots began to appear on the skin of the crew member, who had become a corpse with an unnaturally shaking neck.

Was it his mercy or anger that took his life before being hit by a poisonous attack?

No one could afford to fathom it.

The commander-in-chief moved nimbly. They jumped from pillar to post, sometimes using the wall as a stepping stone to aim at the crew from ridiculous angles.

The four crew members, including Lee Hang, were busy avoiding it.

Their achievements were insufficient to drive out the poison that was spreading through the air and trying to infiltrate the body little by little, and to mount a meaningful counterattack while avoiding the poisonous hands of the Commander-in-Chief.

“Stop him!”

When Lee Hang shouted, raising the hand of the commander-in-chief who was right in front of him with his sword, the members relatively behind him threw a memorized message.

Flying daggers and daggers.

The poisonous horse twisted its body to avoid them. The distance between Lee Hang and Dokma widened in that case.

“You’re still doing it. Poisonous horse!”

A very brief gap. Lee Hang and the crew corrected their posture and lined up.

Jin was able to withstand even an expert with a higher martial arts level than himself.

Although we were swayed by a sudden attack, we can now capture the poisonous horse with our formation.

Lee Hang was so sure.

“Is it true? Do you think this will work?”

The poisonous horse walked slowly, looking at their ranks.

“This is not a strategy to kill you, this is to hold on. I know that your martial arts is eating yourself. If only I could hold on like this…”

“No, what I mean is… Do you think you can withstand my attack with something like this?”

I feel pressure from above, as if the air in the Cheonmagung Palace is condensing and pressing down on my body.

“What is this!”

A force that makes it difficult to hold one’s head weighs down Lee Hang and the crew.

“You’re going to catch me with such a sloppy strategy?”

Death spreads from the toes of the poisonous horse.

Endless purple waves encroaching on the stone floor. The viscous wave approaches the intruders little by little.

“Great, boss!”

“Damn… Where is Noegeom and what is he doing?”

Lee Hang muttered as he moved back in line.

The poison horse was in no hurry. Slowly and surely, the Blue Dragons were put under pressure.

As if a snake was playing with a mouse, the poisonous horse walked step by step with a wry smile on its face.

“Ugh!!!”

Did you say that a cornered rat bites? One of the members, who lost his composure, rushed out of the ranks with his spear pointed out.

Lee Hang hurriedly called the crew, but his voice was not heard.

The crew, running over the poisonous swamp created by the poisonous horse, fell into fear as he saw his body disappearing with each step.

One step.

One step.

My body is gradually falling apart.

I tried to use the spear as a support to catch my body that was tilting as I lost my balance, but before I knew it, the rotted spear broke with a popping sound.

Daewon, who threw himself into the swamp, melted and disappeared.

The fate of the prey that attacked the predator was miserable.

“If you don’t come, I will go.”

The execution ceremony began with Dokma’s words.

The poisonous horse, which changed its momentum, rushed forward and struck Lee Hang’s heart.

Lee Hang raised his weapon to block, but the sword that touched the poisonous horse’s hand made a nasty sound and rusted.

“Wow!”

A broken sword and a pierced heart.

Lee Hang looked at the poisonous horse’s face with his eyes wide open.

A face filled with confusion, astonishment, and fear.

The poisonous horse grabbed Lee Hang’s heart and ripped it out.

The heart, which had suddenly turned dark, lost its lively pulsation and became a piece of rotten meat.

-dump

The members of the Blue Dragon Team, who lost their leader in vain, rushed to attack the poisonous horse, and their end was no different from that of their leader.

***

Zhuge Hui looked around the messy Heavenly Demon Palace.

The damage is severe, and the floor is dirty with rotting corpses.

“To clean it… you’ll need quite a few people.”

Zhuge Hui unconsciously remembered the faces of the servants he was about to clean up and covered his eyes with his hand.

“……”

Tears flowed down the hands that covered my face.

“I’m sorry.”

Zhuge Hui continued to apologize out of reach.

A simple apology brings to mind the face of one church member.

He apologized several times and commemorated the church members he killed with his own hands.

And towards the end of the memorial.

“Oh my… it’s such a messy place. Does the Heavenly Demon live in such a barbaric place?”

Zhuge Hui turned his head to the lively voice that broke the solemn atmosphere.

– Suddenly

I felt a strange feeling in my body along with an alien sound.

“!!”

His left arm was cut off before he knew it.

– Pushyuk

Bleeding that increased with awareness. Zhuge Hui calmly pressed the acupuncture point to stop the bleeding.

“You’re… a poisonous horse, right? I’ve fought a lot with Youngma and Gwonma, but this is the first time I’ve seen you. nice to meet you. My name is Namgung Soyeon.”

Namgung So-yeon, who was looking at him with a bright smile, was holding a man’s arm in her arms.

‘I didn’t feel anything.’

When did he cut off his own arm? This was not an area of surprise.

An overwhelming difference in class.

Zhuge Hui had a hunch that just as he had violated the members of the Blue Dragon, that woman could also play with him.

“I have one question to ask. If you answer well… well, I might be able to save your life.”

“Where is our Confucius Kang?”

A calming madness is conveyed. Just as I was contemplating what to say in response to that voice that felt obsession and obsession.

I hear words again from over there.

“No. I just need to find it. I asked something pointless. I think I can hear Confucius Kang crying out for me from over there.”

Namgoong Soyeon smiled sweetly while sticking out her tongue and smiled deeply.

“Ah… I’m hungry.”
