It was something that happened in a flash.

Who would have thought that in that situation, he would attack Jacob and take away his power as an apostle?

“Hahahahahaha-!”

A mad laughter erupts.

At the same time, the red energy felt from the guy amplifies and the shape of a dragon appears above his head.

I’m starting to get sick of it now.

“What is this? It’s not for zombies. Even if you kill them, they come back to life.”

I look down at Jaycoop, who is lying on the floor clutching his heart.

“Whew, whoosh… … !”

Amazingly, he’s still breathing.

There is no more blood flowing from the heart that is clutched with both hands.

It looks like they somehow managed to stop the bleeding.

I am once again amazed by the hunter’s tenacity.

No matter what, if your heart is pierced, shouldn’t you die?

It was a blessing.

Thanks to that, it seems like the power as an apostle was not completely transferred to Lu Bu.

“How much can you hold out?”

When asked like that, the guy answered with difficulty.

“3…, 30 minutes.”

30 minutes.

It was tight, but enough.

Even if they fight for days and nights, if there’s just one opening, it’s over in the blink of an eye. That’s what it means to fight between masters.

“If I kill Lu Bu, can I survive?”

“Apostle… , Cool… ! Ugh… , If I could receive the full power of an apostle… .”

“Okay, stop talking.”

I kind of understand it.

If you kill Lu Bu and the power of the Apostle is fully transferred to you, you can even heal your pierced heart.

Actually, I don’t really care if the guy dies.

When you die, it’s just a pity.

But it’s a problem if you die during battle.

That means Lu Bu’s power will become even stronger than it is now.

After covering the area around the guy’s heart with ice, he raises his body.

“If you’re going to die, don’t die. I’ll be back soon.”

“… … .”

A guy who nods his head to answer.

He takes up his sword again and confronts Lu Bu.

A human who was already strong became even more monstrous.

It’s not the first time I’ve felt this sensation…

I’ve felt this sensation once before.

The momentum he exudes now has been compared to that of Francis Meyer, once considered one of humanity’s greatest heroes.

Even back when he risked his life to strike Jinjo.

“It’s similar to that time… .”

When I watched him from behind at that time, he felt like an incredibly high mountain.

How long will it take to get there?

I was overwhelmed by such a sense of helplessness and helplessness.

But it’s really strange.

“Why does it feel like it’s worth trying now?”

I can’t stop laughing.

It wasn’t that the opponent looked funny.

It’s just that I’m proud of myself for growing so much compared to back then.

“I.”

My whole body feels strong.

Francis Meyer.

The object of my admiration.

A person who was a real hero, unlike me who was nothing more than a fake.

“With that kind of person.”

A vanguard that mercilessly defeats countless monsters and villains and saves humanity.

“You mean we can stand shoulder to shoulder…!”

My heart is pounding.

Now, I don’t have even the slightest desire to become a hero.

I am more than satisfied with my current life.

But I also have something called romance.

The strongest.

Anyone born as a man would want to grab that word at least once.

Clearly, there are still many mountains to climb.

Some of them are already known, while others are probably hiding themselves.

“Hey.”

But if you can surpass the opponents in front of you, wouldn’t you at least be qualified to compete with them?

“Give me the title of peerless.”

The guy is laughing.

“If you can take it.”

Kwaaang-!

Swords and spears clashed.

* * *

A strong wind blows, and waves crash and hit the ground.

All of these phenomena occurred due to the clash between Kim Do-jin and Yeo Bu.

Kwaaang!

It was that strong and rough.

The shock wave from when a sword and a spear collide is enough to tear off flesh.

In a short time, they were dyed red with blood bursting out from the wounds drawn all over them.

And yet they were laughing.

“Kuhhh… , yeah, this is it.”

It was the moment I had been longing for.

This dizzying feeling of struggling to survive with the blade of death held to your neck!

I feel it.

My heart tightens, and the sweat that soaks my entire body cools down and then heats up again. Every time I repeat this, I feel that my body is growing.

“Cry out-!”

Khuu …

The form of the red dragon that wraps around the entire body changes.

It sheds its thick, sharp scales, shortens its long body, and elongates its arms and legs.

The dragon’s head splits in half as it holds the Yeouiju, and a woman’s face appears inside.

She was extremely pretty, but her eyes held a look of anger that could never be hidden.

Ira, the goddess of wrath.

Another will is expressed, engraved on his chest, where the power of an almost complete apostle has blossomed.

He was extremely reluctant to have anyone lord it over him, but she was an exception.

‘There’s only her.’

Ira.

Because she is the only person who understands my feelings.

That’s why she can put anything on top of her head.

That’s why she has the knack of doing whatever it takes to achieve what she wants.

But she had never wished for anything until now.

Just let out all the anger that’s built up in your heart.

So that the anger can be released, and even deeper anger can be built up.

Like any parent who just wants their child to grow up healthy, that was all she asked for.

But she told me for the first time what she wanted from me.

He asked for Kim Do-jin’s neck and heart.

Then shouldn’t we follow it?

“Kaaaah!”

The hand of the goddess Aritaun covers the back of his hand.

This is a magic that is performed not only by oneself, but also with her.

Phew!

Boom!

That is why it is more intense and powerful.

So much so that even the current Kim Do-jin would have a hard time handling it.

“Huh… … !”

Constantly being pushed out.

It was equally difficult to suppress the power of Lu Bu, who was carrying the goddess from the red dragon on his back.

Chaechaechaechae!

Kaang!

Sensation in the wrist, elbow, and shoulder joints gradually disappears.

Phew!

Pishushushuk!

A sharp shock wave passes through, tearing at flesh.

Wow!

Every time the heavy impact pouring from the tip of the spear passes through my whole body, my mind becomes dizzy and then barely returns to its original position.

It was around that time.

-“Is there anything you don’t want from me?”

It was she who spoke to me from within my subconscious.

-“It’s really nice to see over there. Aren’t the goddess and the apostles holding hands so affectionately?”

It sounded like a reproachful tone, but it also sounded like an envious tone.

Or maybe both.

I don’t know which one is correct, but I know what she’s trying to say.

-“If this continues, I’ll die.”

Just like them, aren’t they also trying to play with each other properly as men and women?

But, well.

‘How do you do that?’

He doesn’t know.

How to visualize a goddess with my energy like that.

If it were just a form, it could be made somehow, but wouldn’t it be more than that?

Then she told me the answer.

-“If you wish earnestly, it will happen.”

Do you wish earnestly?

what?

Being with a goddess?

Kim Do-jin laughed bitterly.

“That would absolutely not work.”

Unfortunately, I don’t want her as much as I would like.

-“You’re such a white guy.”

It’s not that I disliked her.

Especially when she thinks her power isn’t her own.

However, I just don’t feel the current situation is dangerous enough to warrant desperate hope.

She asked back in a bewildered tone, having read his mind.

-“Even though I could die?”

Death.

“Don’t be afraid.”

There is no one who does not fear death.

However, I only know this because of my experience as a hunter for over 20 years.

The moment you let your fear out, the moment it causes you to act differently than usual.

That is the moment when you are truly consumed by death.

So, whenever this kind of situation arises, Kim Do-jin repeats it to himself.

“Just doing your best.”

At least let’s do our best and go with the results so that we don’t have any regrets like, ‘I should have done it this way’ or ‘I should have done it this way’.

The red-hot star of the sword is reborn within the chest.

Every time I take in his skill that transcends human limitations, the light grows larger and larger.

At the same time whisper to him.

That’s the path you should take.

A body that has reached its limit.

Because of that, the swordsmanship that could not advance any further finally takes a step again and crosses the line.

The line of limitations that had been drawn without realizing it.

“Sseuup.”

Take a deep breath, and as you exhale, swing your sword.

Even though he struck hastily without any preparation, there was not a single waver in the tip of the sword.

It was thanks to the body that transcended humanity.

Perfect sense of balance and distribution of power.

The sense of stability gained through this was directly transferred to the sword.

Chae-ae-aeng!

The offense and defense, which had always suffered losses and retreated every time they clashed, finally reached an even level.

Swordsmanship, kendo.

They don’t back down, they stop in the middle and constantly fight for power.

Kagagak!

That damn thing…!

Swords and spears fall without anyone benefiting.

Soon, waves of attacks surge towards each other.

The sword that could only be swung a few times per second now cuts through the air dozens of times.

In the midst of all this, it is sharp.

Each and every attack is enough to completely cut off the opponent’s breath.

An attack that misses by just a hair’s breadth tears flesh and shatters bones.

The two were in that realm.

The pressure of the attack alone can burst the body of an ordinary person and kill them.

Chaechaechaechae!

Kaka kakak!

Persseok!

The building is collapsing.

Crunch!

The ground is collapsing.

Plop!

A space that can no longer be called a port.

Kim Do-jin thought.

Even if I’m Han Joo-hee, can I turn everything back to normal in one day?

As soon as that thought occurred to him, Kim Do-jin became convinced.

The opportunity for victory has passed to me.
