Hyeondang, the head maid of the Jujak Palace, was quickly coming to a conclusion.

In a national crisis like this, evacuating the masters you serve to a safe place is the top priority.

However, it is not possible to know which place inside Cheongdo Palace is a safe place.

However, it is unrealistic to run outside of Cheongdo Palace for a long time through this grand palace. Will we be able to move forward while shaking off all the ghosts that lie in the sky?

Moreover, due to the nature of the Suzaku Palace, all of its members are women, so great military force cannot be expected. They say that one strong adult man can somehow catch one or two low-ranking nobles… Except for a few upper-ranking maids, most of the members of the palace are maids who are absorbed in internal management.

There is not enough force, and there is no way to escape.

In that case, all that’s left is… a sit-in protest.

Hyeondang, who came to that conclusion, led her maids and began to block all the entrances and exits of the palace.

– Quagwang! The Quagga River!

– Patter! Patter!

As if the sky was warning of this disaster, lightning was striking.

In the driving rain and wind, Hyeondang and her maids blocked all the wooden doors of the palace with furniture and nailed down all the doors leading to the outside.

By doing this, the palace was turning into a huge prison, but at this point, it was the wisest plan.

Seeing as there was no news from other places, it seemed that the people of Hyeonmu Palace, Cheongryong Palace, and White Tiger Palace were also defending themselves in their palaces and waiting for rescue.

“Your Majesty. “First of all, you must go into the deepest part of the Suzaku Palace and hide yourself.”

“In a crisis like this… are you just telling me to hide?”

“Your life is our life. So… you must remember how important your life is and stay as safe as possible.”

She was a human queen who wanted to go out and kill ghosts, but considering the gravity of her status, it was a reckless act.

As Hyeondang said, if Lady In is seriously injured or dies, the maids in the royal palace who failed to properly assist her will also be dragged into her tomb.

Queen In, gritting her teeth, dragged the collar of her palace robe and entered the depths of the palace.

– Bwaaah!

Soon, the maids who discovered the ghost outside the palace began to scream.

Queen In, who was striding endlessly into the inner room, twitched her fingertips, but Hyeondang pushed her back.

“You have to go in! “Your Majesty!”

She was grinding her teeth so hard that it wasn’t surprising that blood came out, but Ingwibi had no choice but to evacuate as she was led by Hyeondang’s hand.

“General! If this continues, the damage will be severe! “How could a high-ranking ghost be killed by human power!”

“It is time to distinguish between courage and temerity! Order a retreat now!”

A punitive force from the Anhyang region is subduing upper-level demons.

Deputy General Jeong Seong-tae, leading tens of thousands of troops, was sitting quietly in his garrison with his eyes closed.

Since news of the disaster at the main palace had not yet reached the Vice General, the most important task was to subdue the superior demons in front of him.

However, the power of the superior demon was stronger than expected, and even the subordinates were scared.

The power of the superior demons was certainly surprising, but the biggest problem was the soldiers who had lost morale.

How should I kill that superior spirit who has taken on a more terrifying form than I thought?

Lost in that worry… the Vice General quietly closed his eyes.

If I had brought Seol Taepyeong, I wouldn’t have been so scared and trembled.

Although he shows signs of regret… he thinks about what the military officers in the main palace are doing.

– Shoot!

– Tap, tap, tap.

On the other hand, Seol Taepyeong and Mirae were heading to the main palace on horseback, braving the wind and rain.

The scene of Cheongdo Palace with its roaring sound… was unusual even when viewed from afar.

Subdue Ilgwi (2)

– ‘I didn’t take poison, Taepyeong.’

When Seolran heard those words, Hyeongwoljang Seoltaepyeong breathed a sigh of relief.

Information leaked from the sealing party said that Seolran, the byeolseon maid in the crown prince’s palace, had definitely consumed dun poison.

However, in reality, Seolran, who had noticed the trick, just pretended to eat.

– ‘And the people in Seal Hagah will think I’ve been poisoned!’

Seol-ran went one step further and packaged it well so that Seol Tae-pyeong could use this situation as a weapon.

If suspicions had been raised at that point and the situation had been complicated, the sealing party would have taken measures to deal with it, whether it was making excuses or using other tactics.

However, Seolran kept this fact a secret for the time being and reported it to Hyeongwoljang Seol Taepyeong.

Thanks to this, Hyeongwoljang Seol Taepyeong was able to slowly observe the entire situation and decide how to move.

– ‘There is a high probability that a huge ghost will soon start running rampant in this Cheongdo Palace.’

– ‘What…what…?’

– ‘There is not much time to respond properly. Sister Lan. Please help me!’

– Wow!

Silan heard a roar amidst the wind and rain.

Although the sound comes from the remains of the Jeokgung Palace in the distance, it seems to spread throughout the entire Cheongdo Palace. Soon, a group of ghosts rose one by one, twisting their bodies grotesquely and glaring at the maids.

“aaah!”

“It’s a ghost! A ghost has appeared!”

“Everyone calm down!”

The moment the maids were about to become stunned in fear, Star God maid Siltan screamed loudly. First of all, if one wants to maintain the composure of those around them, the person leading the courier must not panic.

Seeing Seolran maintaining her composure even in such an urgent crisis, the girls and the maids all swallowed their saliva and lowered their heads.

All of Ahnwoljeong’s maids are unkempt in their clothes and are not in their right state of mind.

Seolran, who somehow managed to retrieve Wang Han, who was lying on the floor, gathered her strength and said.

“Secretary Wang, until Taepyeong shows up… that monster will come to kill me.”

“…yes?”

Ilgwi Pyeongyang, a masterpiece created by Yeokdeunggwi, knows the people that Princess Ahyeon, who is in control of the situation, values most.

Geomjon Seol Tae-pyeong is the main contributor to preventing Yeok-deung-gwi from moving forward in this confined time, but the person who had just as great an impact was Seol-ran, who later ascended to the position of Princess of Cheondo.

Of course, Seol-ran couldn’t have known that fact, but she just nodded to what her younger sister, Seol Tae-pyeong, said with serious eyes.

If Taepyeong spoke so seriously, there must be a reason.

I left Anwoljeong, believing only that, and in fact, a disaster named Ilgwi arrived at Cheongdo Palace.

There was no reason to hesitate now.

“From my perspective, I have to go to the Crown Prince’s womb first and check on His Majesty’s well-being. However, Master Ahn will go to the scene. I will also attach several of my subordinates to the place.”

Even in the driving rain and wind, Seolran kept her composure and spoke to Wang Han.

“What are you going to do about Lady Seol? If that monster is really targeting you, Maid Seol, shouldn’t it run out of Cheongdo Palace first?”

“Of course, we have to run away. Once we confirm the safety of His Majesty the Crown Prince in the Crown Prince’s womb, we will drag that monster away. Please give us time until then.”

***

“I will bring other general-level officials! General Seong, please take care of yourself.”

“You’re stupid! The other generals need to stay where they are! Get organized and look at the overall situation in the palace!”

General Seong Sa-wook held his sword in the pouring rain.

Although he rose to a high position through force, he was also a perfect person to lead a group.

As he has experienced numerous crises over a long period of time, he is a person who knows how to clearly point out how to act at the current moment.

“Ghosts are rising from all over the place, regardless of location! It must be the influence of those ghosts!”

The dry nape of the neck is thin, but the voice flowing out is loud.

“Because it is unknown where safety is, the administrators of each palace will be on a sit-in strike! The only people who can rescue them and gather them in a safe area are general-level officials who can command warriors regardless of situation or affiliation. !”

When Han Cheon-seon heard those words, he was shocked as if his head had been struck by lightning.

The only thought that dominated his mind was the need to prevent the disaster right before his eyes, but General Seong Sa-wook was calmly examining the overall situation in the palace.

“Go and tell them! I will kill that monster, so subdue the demons spread throughout the palace as quickly as possible and minimize casualties!”

Just as important as cutting down that monster is minimizing casualties.

In a crisis situation, the group must move systematically.

And Seong Sa-wook took upon himself the most difficult task.

The plan was to directly cut down that roaring monster, Ilgwi Pyeongyang.

It is only when you look at it that you know whether it is a grail operated by a skinny old man or the old master of an experienced general. If you fail to cut down one stone here, it is a choice that could lead to an even bigger disaster.

However, in any case, the soldier’s job is to carry out the assigned mission.

Han Tianxian nodded and ran out of the enemy palace. The only person who could report this situation in detail to the main palace was Han Cheon-seon, who was at the scene.

– Woe!

However, contrary to its appearance, Ilgwi Gyeongryang’s head turns quickly and easily.

Sensibly aware that the opponent would be slow to react if Pabal was killed first, he leapt towards Han Cheon-seon, who was running out.

– Caw!

– Bang!

However, Seong Sa-wook’s sword moved quickly and cut off his outstretched arm once more.

When the severed arm rolled on the floor, Seong Sa-wook’s sword was already back in its sheath. Only the belatedly drawn path of the sword is scattered with raindrops.

A sword that is so fast that the eye cannot follow it. It is a talent that only those who have withstood the power of a sword and have received the quality of a sword can possess.

“I don’t know what’s causing you to take on the skin of that loyal warrior and act out his actions, but… it would be better to give up the thought of shaking me off and passing by.

– Woe!

At that moment, Ilgwi’s arm swung around and tried to hit Seong Sa-wook’s neck, but Seong Sa-wook quickly lowered his posture and avoided it.

However, the shabby body had to be pushed back just by the wave left where the fist passed. Seong Sa-wook, who was in his prime when he crossed the battlefield for a long time, is no longer there. Now, only an old man who is nearly a hundred years old remains.

On the other hand, Yogwi is now supported by the power of Vice General, who has reached his prime.

In addition, the blood of a ghost combined with the power of an evil spirit has made it stronger to a level that cannot be reached by humans.

Deputy General Jeong Seong-tae is a crazy person who drank poison three times.

It is not easy to handle that power, but the ghost’s blood gushing out every time it is cut is also mind-boggling.

No matter how injured you are, how can you handle a monster that can recover again and destroy a building with a single blow?

However, Seong Sa-wook held the sword sheath tightly and smiled with difficulty.

– Kaang!

Ilgwi then kicked the ground and jumped up, causing the floor to sink and dust to rise up.

I just closed my eyes once and the monster was right in front of me. If you have a huge body, you have to be heavy, but even your speed is not at the level of a human.

– Faaah!

If it gets into a power struggle, Seong Buk-kyuk won’t be able to withstand even a single ounce of it.

However, most of the sword skills he has achieved are comprised of techniques that have reached the level of gods.

Seong Sa-wook’s technique of shedding the weight like water even when a weight weighing 1,000 pounds falls, shows both boldness and delicacy.

– Woe!

The soldiers who crossed swords with Seong Sa-wook all fall into the feeling of being considerate of the falling leaves.

Fallen leaves that change direction as they blow in the wind are avoided when the sword seems to touch them. and

Even if it touches it, it gently slides away through the sword body.

In the end, it feels like you are throwing a sword strike into the air, so it is not much different from throwing away a ghost.

– Woe!

– Kwaaak!

No matter how many times I swing my fist, it doesn’t reach Seong Sa-wook.

Of course, the aftermath alone made Seong Sa-wook have to keep his balance to avoid being swept away.

When extreme power and extreme technology collide, there is no choice but to end up in a constant draw.

In the end, the one who loses focus at the end will be defeated, so if it comes to physical strength, the aged Seong Sa-wook will be at a much disadvantage.

In the end, Seong Sa-wook must seize the opportunity and cut off his head. It meant that Seong Sa-wook was the one who had to take a leap of faith at some point.

– Quang!

As Ilgwi’s fist missed and hit the ground, the whole area shook. If you feel the powerful force that shakes even the ground, it is not difficult to realize that even a single touch will kill you.

However, if you let it go and let it go, opportunities will come.

It was the moment when I was about to pick up my fist that was stuck on the floor again.

– Kaang!

It is natural that the sword attack is not visible.

The rapid speed that exceeds the limit can even be felt as one beat slower.

When Seong Sa-wook brushed away his sword in the rain, Ilgu’s head was cut off and he rolled on the floor. The blade of the cloud sword was soaked with the blood of a ghost.

“The great power is impressive, but there are too many gaps in the movements.

Seong Sa-wook shook off his sword and tightened his hands again to cut the remaining body in two. Since you never know when your neck will rise again, you have to break your body beyond repair.

It was the moment to swing the sword again.

-Woe!

As Jeong Seo-tae lived half his life as a military commander, his sword skills were also not extraordinary. The reason he doesn’t use a sword often is because he can solve most problems with his enormous strength.

It’s not that you can’t use the sword, it’s that you don’t use it.

And, if that enormous power is delicately honed in the name of technology, even the best military commander of Qingdao will have no choice but to give up a momentary gap.

If it had been Seong Sa-wook in his prime, would he have been able to close even that gap?

– Caw!

– Push!

When the headless Ilgwi pulled out his fist from the ground… there was a sword in his hand as huge as his body.

Yeokdeunggwi, a sword made of the blood and bones of a ghost, personally bestowed a sword polished from his own bones to that special spirit.

From Noble mtl dot com

He probably didn’t expect the blade to stick out from there, but by the time he noticed the sword strike, it had already sliced through Seong Sa-wook’s body.

“Wow.”

Seong Sa-wook’s eyes were wide open, and fresh blood spurted out from his mouth. No matter what, I couldn’t imagine that a huge sword would come out from under the ground.

The image that comes into view is that of Ilgwi, whose neck has sprouted again.

If you look at him holding a sword as big as his body and posing for it, you can see that he is a warrior who has honed his skills throughout his life.

Is it possible for a ghost to imitate a human like that in one day?

Even with the blood of the request and the magic power of the reverse, his strength is several times stronger than that of the actual deputy general.

all.

– Clap.

Seong Sa-wook’s severed right arm fell on the wet floor.

Unlike Ilgwi’s arm, the arm did not grow back.

Seong Sa-wook had to grit his teeth as the pain and bleeding continued.

I tried holding the sword with my remaining left arm, but I had to do something about the bleeding that was gushing out.

* * *

“We must evacuate immediately! First, we must focus on evacuating the Emperor out of the palace!”

“Every place is full of ghosts! I can’t leave in a hurry!”

“Why not just go outside the ecliptic first?”

“The rain, wind and lightning are blowing like this, and if you go out carelessly and encounter a ghost outside, it will be even worse.”

It’s dangerous! “There is no place that is properly fortified!”
