‘Tuma? ‘Who was Tuma?!’

I felt a violent force that made the back of my neck tingle.

No matter how you look at it, it was a skill that seemed impossible for our group to handle.

If you look at the sound being played, it is at least the pinnacle of perfection.

In the worst case, he might have been an expert in the Harmony Sutra like his teacher, Namgung-hyeon.

[Tuma (鬪魔) afterword.]

[He is an expert in boxing techniques using the Iron Blood Ring God Fist and the Tiger King’s Blade.]

[He is considered to be the lowest of the Eight Demons, but he is at the level of Harmony Sutra. He is the warrior of Sapa who is hated by everyone because he is always looking for a life-threatening fight with the strong.]

‘Jo Hwa-kyung…!’

It was the worst situation.

The guidebook said that he was the weakest among the evil guys called Palma, but that was also when his opponent was the same Hwa-kyung.

If they fought, annihilation was certain.

Seeing as he’s looking for a fight with a strong man, it’s clear that he’s looking for someone who is a swordsman or something, for a duel risking his life.

I don’t know if he is someone worthy of being visited by Tuma, the Sutra of Harmony, in person.

‘Really… next time, I’ll have to move Baekgun separately. I wonder who is not the main character…’

I brought him out to help him gain some experience as a strongman for no reason, but this is what happened.

He fired a gun at Tuma.

“Meet senior Tuma.”

In martial arts, a strong person is always a senior.

This guy looked normal except for being crazy about fighting.

So, if you just make them lose interest, won’t they go back on their own?

“To answer your question, I did not return home.”

“Hmm?”

He narrowed his red eyes.

“I definitely heard this guy tell you earlier that he was anti-Rohwandong…”

Tuma tapped the head of the Black Moon gang rolling on the floor with his tiptoe.

‘Were you watching everything?’

“Isn’t this something you just blurted out out of embarrassment? I have heavy expectations from senior Tuma.”

“It is clear that the minimum level for anti-Roh transformation is the state of harmony… It does not appear that you have reached that state.”

His eyes pass over the injured companions.

I sighed inwardly in relief.

“Then…”

“But it’s a shame that I just have to go back when I’m covered in blood.”

‘The crazy guy… broke the ceiling and landed on a dead body!’

“And the power of the fist that killed the peak master in one blow even after eating mountain gong poison… I became interested.”

“Senior Tuma, just a moment……”

Namgoongmu tried to intervene by saying something, but Tuma cut him off with a sharp look in his eyes.

“Who said you could talk to me? I’m not interested in other beggars.”

Red eyes flashed.

“I need to organize it in advance before I can enjoy it in earnest.”

Squirt!

Quang!

At the same time that Tuma moved, I also stamped my foot.

Unlike him, who only heard a small sound of the wind blowing, I flew away with a roar.

This is because Tuma was using internal energy and I was moving with pure power.

thud!

“Ho?”

“Ugh…!”

“Wow! Minho Sohyeop…!”

He once again blocked Nangungmu’s frontal position, but this time he was not as relaxed as when he blocked the master’s sword.

Unable to overcome the shock, he flew away, breaking the table with Namgoongmu standing behind him.

Crash!

“Wow… it hurts.”

Even though I crossed my arms in an X shape to block Tuma’s fist, I still felt a tingling sensation.

With this much force, the warriors who consumed acid poison would have collapsed in their chests and died instantly.

“The more I look at it, the more interesting it gets. At least the arm must be clearly broken for it to have normal power.”

Tuma’s red eyes showed an interesting look.

“Is it external? No, if external energy is not used together with internal energy, the effect decreases drastically. There are traces of learning external skills, but this is simply due to the durability of the body itself. What a fun body.”

Tuma rummaged through his uniform and pulled out something.

Grumpy~

“Steel… beads?”

Steel balls rubbing against each other in large hands.

Tuma swung his arm and scattered them around the bases.

Too doo doo!

“Wow!”

“Gagging…! Is it memorization…!”

“Damn, my body…!”

“It seems like you don’t want them to die, so you didn’t take their lives. But…”

All of the Cheonpung Sword Team members who were guarding Tuma inside the base were instantly struck by iron balls and fell to the ground.

He was a man who seemed to be not only skilled in boxing, but also in fighting itself.

“If you do not respond properly to the duel, then I will kill everyone here.”

“Damn…”

Tumara, befitting his nickname, was truly a man crazy about fighting.

Fortunately, Namgung Hwaran, who has not yet learned martial arts properly, is not concerned.

Even though she didn’t get hit by the iron ball, I wasn’t confident that I could satisfy Tuma with my skills.

“If it weren’t for the mountain communists…!”

It would have been helpful if I had at least a small amount of skill.

At that time, Tuma heard my muttering and spoke.

“So, you’re saying it’s difficult to fight properly because you’ve taken acid poison?”

He walked over to the few remaining intact tables, picked up a bottle of alcohol, and brought it to his mouth.

Jump, jump!

“……!”

‘You drink alcohol knowing it contains acid poison!’

Tuma, who took a refreshing drink, ended up emptying the entire bottle.

“Hehehe… It’s Shaanxi’s famous liquor. Since this kind of alcohol was mixed with acid poison, it would have been difficult to endure without drinking it.”

He cheerfully wiped the alcohol that had flowed from the corner of his mouth with his sleeve.

“How about it? I also took acid poison. Would it be worth doing this? Once you reach the level of Harmony Sutra, the effectiveness of Sangong Poison decreases significantly, so it would be better to make a decision quickly.”

“……If I agree to the duel, will you spare us?”

“If you don’t fight, I will kill you all. All I want is a fight that gets my heart racing. Anything else has no meaning.”

‘Ha… You’re not saying you’ll save my life.’

In this case, I really had to pour everything I had into chasing that man named Tuma out.

No matter how many times I die, I can come back, but other people cannot.

“Let me borrow your sword.”

“……Be careful.”

Namgungmu obediently lent his sword.

Unlike the owner, Tuma was not someone who could do anything to let down his guard.

It was better to pick up the sword from the beginning.

Chuck ㅡ

As I aimed my sword, Tuma shouted happily.

“You finally have eyes worth seeing!”

‘Whoa…’

I took a breath and felt tension spread throughout my body.

The moment when a force that feels like it might explode at any moment is transmitted to the feet.

Kwaang!

It smashed the floor and quickly rushed towards Tuma.

Even though he was using high-speed thinking, his moving speed was fast enough to make him feel like his vision was stretched.

Like an arrow being fired, it quickly reached a position where it could cut off Tuma’s head.

‘done…!’

This was the first blow I attempted with all my might after growing my abilities this much.

A speed that a human who cannot use internal energy due to eating acid poison would never be able to react to.

He swung his sword to behead Tuma.

The silver semi-circular trajectory headed toward Tuma’s neck.

at that time.

Kaaang!

“What…?”

Before I knew it, Tuma’s fist was covering his neck, and he was blocking the blade with the back of his hand.

Tuma turned his blood-red eyes to stare at my astonished face.

“How on earth…!”

“Even if you drank acid poison, you can do this much if you have the slightest skill. And there is no way my fist, which has been trained so far, will be cut by a sword that has no strength?”

Tuma, who easily blocked the blow with all his might, spoke calmly.

Jo Hwa-gyeong was even more monstrous than expected.

“Ugh…!”

However, he swung his sword without stopping to find any loopholes he might have.

Heavenly Wind Sword Technique

Yeonpungsuryeol (軟風搜裂)

Ka-ga-ga-gak-!

Heavenly Wind Sword Technique

A firestorm attack

visor! Chachaechaechaeng!

A strong metallic sound rang out, and Tuma was blocking all sword strikes with both fists.

As the attacks using high-speed thinking became faster, joy began to appear on Tuma’s face.

“Great speed and power!”

It was me who tried to attack him unilaterally, but he didn’t even take a step back from where he first stood.

“Looking at your lack of knowledge about the Harmony Sutra, it is true that you really did not return to Korea. The sword technique is also disappointing in many ways compared to the level of the user. This level of power at this age… it is truly the quality of a great fighter.”

widely!

He grabbed the blade between his index and middle fingers and twisted his fingers for a moment.

Clang!

“Oh my…!”

The blade, which was not protected by internal energy, broke helplessly.

Without hesitation, he let go of the sword from his hand and widened the distance between him and Tuma.

“Although he is a swordsman, I also like the fact that he makes quick decisions and throws away his sword. This is a coolness that is lacking in the later exponents of political factions these days.”

Tuma, who had broken his sword, stood still and thought about something even though it was the perfect opportunity to launch a counterattack.

‘The sword doesn’t lift at all… That fist seems to have almost the same durability as my body. I have to somehow hit another part of the attack…’

While I was also thinking about how to defeat him, Tuma’s mouth opened.

“You… won’t you become a demon?”

“What is that…!”

An atmosphere of shock spread throughout the hall.

When the fallen warriors of the Namgung family started making noise in panic, Tuma threw the iron ball again to silence them.

“A life of growth through endless struggle and life-threatening battles! Being weak is a sin for demons. I can tell that I have walked that path of struggle so far. You… you haven’t killed one or two people.”

‘Ugh…!’

Tuma’s red eyes stared right through me.

The person I killed in Tuseonhyuphaengrok was Hwangongdo.

In that case, Tuma would have realized that I have killed people in other worlds just by blocking a few attacks.

“A surprisingly refined killing energy… It is an energy that cannot be unleashed without seeing one’s enemies as targets to be cut down, not as humans. It is clear that your essence does not lie in the old-fashioned conventions claimed by political factions, but in the life-and-death struggle of demons like me.”

Now his voice had the tremble of a child who couldn’t contain his joy.

“You deserve it! If you become a mine, I will personally teach you. I am Tuma Yeonhu-myeong, one of the Eight Demons of the Heavenly Demon God Religion, representing the Four Schools.”

Coogung!

The moment Tuma reveals his name.

The air on the bases became several times heavier than before.

His madness for struggle and martial arts affects the outside world through the state of Harmony Sutra.

“The boring rules of political factions cannot help you grow. You’re just wasting your talent by being used by them to get better martial arts skills. In comparison, the Church of the Heavenly Demon is a world of complete self-respect! With that talent, you might even be noticed by the Heavenly Demon and selected as his disciple!”

Eyes that looked like they were about to drip blood at any moment looked at me with anticipation.

I felt that everyone here was focused on me.

Namgung Hwaran, Baek Geon, Namgung Mu, and the other members of the Cheonpung Sword Team were all waiting for my answer.

“……”

If you calmly calculate the odds, accepting that offer would be the right decision.

This is a person who shows such inaction even after emptying a whole bottle of alcohol containing acid poison.

If I just quietly followed Tuma, I might not have to do any more harm to the people remaining here.

I looked back at Namgung Hwaran.

The adult wife and daughter were looking at me with tearful faces.

She looks only at me without blinking, as if she doesn’t want to miss my appearance even for a moment.

I turned my attention back to Tuma.

You can see red eyes that don’t look like people and dilated pupils that look like they’ve been drugged.

An expression full of confidence that there was no way he would refuse his offer.

‘Ha… It’s not a suggestion worth worrying about.’

I made a decision.

I raised my lowered fist forward again.

This is not a world you came into to learn something unpleasant like magic.

Heavenly Demon God Technique?

There is no need to learn things about this world that may have side effects.

The title has an effect, so no matter what I learn, it won’t completely affect me, but I don’t know if it will have any effect on my mind at all.

Or, people around you who are exposed to the energy may be harmed.

I had no intention of learning something like that and risking a penalty in another world.

And all the relationships I made in this world were in the Namgung family.

Baek Geon, his teacher Nam Gung-hyeon, and other members of the Cheonpung Sword Team were forced to follow him through execution.

Even the Namgung Hwari that I brought out into the world.

I just saw Tuma’s eyes and knew.

That guy has no intention of saving the lives of other people here, no matter what decision I make.

‘Then I guess I should take responsibility for making things like this.’

As the person who made Namgung Hwaran go out unplanned.

As a person who made me face this disaster.

“Let’s go back with everyone alive…!”

Too bang!

I unleashed the supernatural abilities at my feet with all my might and rushed at Tuma.

The speed is incomparable to simply charging with leg strength.

“……!”

Tuma, who missed my movement for a moment, raised his fist to protect his neck and face.

I arrived in front of Tuma in an instant and before he could react, I slammed a fist full of my supernatural power into his solar plexus.

Kwaaa!

Grumble!
