Seol Taepyeong is holding his sword under Ilgwi’s field of vision. Before he knew it, there was a ghostly spirit in his eyes.

Blood is flowing from his head, and his clothes are covered in dirt.

However, even in the pouring rain, the chill in the eyes is clearly felt.

Even the cold air flowing through his sword body seems to be flowing from his body.

In this Cheongdo Palace, where lightning and rain and wind are endlessly swirling, there is not just one monster.

As if to prove that fact, Seoltaepyeong’s sword flew toward Ilgwi once more.

Subdue Ilgwi (4)

“General Jeong! “We must order a retreat now!”

“Even if we can catch the superior demon… our camp will also suffer enormous damage!” “Look forward to the future!” General Jeong!”

He tried to order a march towards Sangdeungwi, who had established himself at the top of the mountain, but his adjutants united and stopped General Jeong Seong-tae.

Jeong Seo-tae gritted his teeth and looked up at the gigantic superior demon.

“If we retreat from here, the damage to the Anhyang region will grow uncontrollably.”

“If we go out… that many soldiers will die. Also, even if we go to war, there is no guarantee that we will be able to catch that noble spirit.”

The expressions on the faces of the adjutants who knelt down to block General Jeong Seong-tae are solemn.

“General Jeong. “Please consider life seriously.”

“…”

“I understand that General Jeong is not confident of victory. Please take this advice to heart.”

General Jeong is full of adjutants with their heads bowed.

Are you afraid of death? Or, are you afraid of causing your comrades to die?

In front of them, Deputy General Jeong Seong-tae… could only shake his head.

– Kaang!

– Kaang!

‘This is crazy, my arm feels like it’s going to break off!’

Every time he exchanged a sum with Ilgwi Pyeongyang, Seol Taepyeong felt as if his arm was being torn off.

Even so, it was a sword attack that could be received because it was Seoltaepyeong. If he had been an ordinary military officer, he would not have been able to receive even a single hit and his body would have been broken in two.

– Woe!

Avoid the sword strike flying horizontally through the raindrops by taking a big leap backwards.

Seol Taepyeong, holding his sword as it was, kicked off the floor and burrowed into Ilgwi’s arms.

However, Ilgwi’s movements seem to transcend even the laws of physics.

While swinging the sword with both hands, he let go of one hand and swung in the opposite direction, cutting away Seol Taepyeong’s body.

– Taang!

“Ugh!”

I managed to get the hand out with my sword, but because of the hard skin and heavy weight, it felt like I had hit a huge rock.

The tip of the sword trembled once, and Seol Taepyeong’s body was about to be pushed away.

Seol Taepyeong pushed off the floor and twisted his body once to gain balance. However, I don’t miss that brief moment.

With the sword in hand, a sharp sword strike struck once again.

An upward slash from the bottom left to the top right. A sword strike that threatens to split Seol Taepyeong’s entire body, including his heart, in two.

With his extreme sense of distance, he manages to narrowly escape the range, but Ilgwi’s sword strike penetrates once more.

This time, Ilgwi’s gesture of cutting forward while making a large horizontal cut shows the unique skill of those who have been training their swordsmanship for decades.

There is no unnecessary work in the connecting action, and there is not even the slightest tremor at the tip of the sword.

– Woe!

However, Seoltaepyeong was not cut by Ilgwi’s sword.

One time, the sword blew away raindrops from the area along with the wind, but Seol Taepyeong was not there.

– Woe!

Seol Taepyeong was sitting low on the blade of his sword, his sleeves flying.

The Hancheoljung sword in his hand was radiating cold as if it was about to fly away at any moment.

– Get it!

As it was, Seoltaepyeong’s sword pierced Ilgwi’s chest.

If the cold can freeze the entire heart, even this monstrous ghost can be put to sleep for a while.

That’s what he thought, but Ilgwi let out a loud roar and struck Seoltaepyeong with his fist once more.

– Kaang!

I managed to block the fist with the Hancheoljung sword I had drawn, but I could not prevent it from being lifted with my whole body and falling again.

– Kwadangtang! Quang!

Seol Taepyeong rolled on the mud floor a few times, then regained his balance and straightened up.

“It’s really dirty… wow…”

When I spit out a little bit of mud that got into my mouth, there was blood mixed in with it.

Lower your posture and breathe while holding your sword. It mixes with the cold air flowing along the blade and lies low on the cold dirt floor of Cheongdo Palace.

“It’s hard to face that monster alone! First, we have to lead him to where the general-level officials are!”

“General-level officials are probably busy. Killing Ilgwi is important, but minimizing casualties is just as important…!”

Seol Taepyeong took a deep breath and quickly answered Miae’s words.

General Seong Sa-wook was a person who calmly made decisions in times like these to reduce the overall number of casualties.

No matter how strong one ghost, the number of casualties cannot increase faster than thousands of ghosts slaughtering people at the same time.

First of all, the overall defense of the palace must come first, so we cannot expect general-level officials to work together to help.

General Seong Sa-wook at the top must have made that policy, and if you think about it carefully, it was a wise decision.

That Ilgwi should be killed right away with all the manpower that can be mobilized.

“And… I can’t cut that Ilgwi using normal methods.”

I heard something from Princess Ahyeon, but the regenerative power is stronger than I thought.

You can cut the neck, arms, and heart as many times as you want, but that alone will not kill you.

In such a subject, the power is so strong and the speed is so fast that even a single blow is a fatal blow.

It is not a reverse demon, but the monster created by the reverse demon is this strong.

I felt like I was once again realizing how ridiculous the monster that was trying to eat the Heavenly Dragon was.

“Run away now, Han! “You’d better go to the active room!”

“what?”

“And the warrior general takes the survivors of the enemy palace and goes to Tianlongchae! Princess Cheondo will be waiting there!”

“Che, Tianryongchae? “You mean Tianlongchae all of a sudden?”

Seol Taepyeong shook off his sword once and glared at Ilgwi.

He was also fully prepared to kill Seol Taepyeong at any time.

Just by exchanging a few sums, you realize that the other person is unusual.

“Go and receive instructions from Princess Ahyeon. “For now, I just need to get that into my head!”

“Are you saying that Hyeongwoljang can handle that monster alone? “You may be able to hold out for a few rounds, but your stamina will run out at some point against that monster that won’t die no matter how many cuts you make!”

“I have an idea! For now, just follow my instructions!”

Mirae gritted her teeth in the rain.

A military officer in the enemy palace does not run away from the enemy.

However, here, it seemed right to do as Seol Taepyeong said. He seemed to have his own thoughts, and it was fortunate that his future participation in the war would not result in a dog’s death.

Mirae put aside her pride and quickly picked up her sword.

“Han! You go to the active room! When you get there, one of my lieutenants will be in the government building! This is the woman named Hasihua from the Sea of Sea! Explain the situation in detail… and tell them to prepare for battle!”

“Okay, I got it!”

Wang Han was even faster at absorbing words.

He is a young man whose speed in grasping situations is extraordinary. He quickly took care of the injured maid and then rode back toward the active room.

He doesn’t worry even once about leaving behind a close friend he has known for half his life.

Rather, it was something he could do because he knew Seol Taepyeong well.

– Taaat!

Mirae and Wang Han have scattered and disappeared, but Ilkwi doesn’t even seem to care.

Anyway, one of the monster’s goals is to kill Seol Taepyeong. Since the target has appeared in front of you, it doesn’t matter what happens to other people.

“Kaaa!”

As Ilgwi roared once again, vibrations spread throughout the surrounding area.

A dark red aura surrounds his attitude, which is bigger than that of most people. The sword enshrined in that mysterious body will cut the opponent in two with just one cut.

Seol Taepyeong tore off one blood-stained sleeve and threw it away, then took a deep breath and picked up his sword.

“Okay… let’s give it a try, you bastard.”

– Taang!

The sound of the metal hitting each other spread throughout the area.

The one who was pushed out by the shock was Seol Tae-pyeong.

It’s hard to believe, but that Ilkwi surpassed Seol Taepyeong in terms of sheer strength alone.

From the beginning, there were many rumors that Deputy General Jeong Seo-tae’s superpowers were far beyond human levels.

At the point when he accepted the power of a ghost, it was arrogant to try to defeat him in a pure fight of strength.

– Quang!

Although his body flew once, Seol Taepyeong, who fell in the air, was somehow able to land on the floor of the building.

– Whirr!

– Boom!

However, then a huge rock flew in.

Ilgwi blew away Seoltaepyeong, stood there, picked up the tiger statue near the entrance of the building, and threw it away.

Dozens of men gathered with equipment to move just one thing, but Ilgwi swung one arm and threw it away.

– Quagwang! Sigh!

When the huge tiger statue was pushed down, the entrance to the storage building collapsed.

Seol Taepyeong was also caught in the impact, but was able to avoid a direct hit by rolling wide to the side.

“Cough! “Cough!”

However, there was nothing they could do about the rising dust and collapsing building debris.

Pieces of tiles fall off, and beams that have lost their support base sink. I went back and forth between them, barely able to avoid it, and tried to go out to the garden in front of the library where the rain was pouring down again.

– Hwaak

Was the reason for throwing that large statue simply to block Seol Taepyeong’s gaze?

When I gathered myself up and came out, Ilkwi was moving its huge body nimbly and had reached right in front of my nose.

– Whirr!

– Caw! bang!

Seol Taepyeong quickly lowered his posture and threw himself behind the thick pillar supporting the end of the eaves of the library.

However, the sword of Ilgwi destroyed the pillars of the library and flew towards Seol Taepyeong.

– Kaang!

At least he succeeded in bouncing the sword upward, which had lost momentum due to being blocked by the pillar.

That alone made the bones in his right arm tremble, but Seol Taepyeong overcame the pain by shaking his head once.

– Coogugung! Coogung!

When even the large pillar that was the last foundation of support collapsed, the entire library building began to collapse.

Amid the falling building rubble, Seol Taepyeong lowered his posture and gritted his teeth.

– Kwakagagak! Coogung! Coogung!

The building collapsed as it stood, and the roof broke in one corner and Seoltaepyeong rose up.

“Kaaa!”

Seol Taepyeong climbed to the top of the collapsed building and took a deep breath.

Even before he can hold his sword in the pouring rain, Ilgwi stands up, pushing away the debris from inside the library building.

It looks like a corpse resurrecting from a grave.

It is a monster that continues to grow even if you kill it.

– Coo! Coo!

The ground shakes every time its heavy body makes a lunge.

Stamina is infinite. No matter how high the level of the sword master is, if he continues to strike with his sword until he collapses from exhaustion, he is bound to die as long as he is human.

– Woe!

As he clears away the remains of the building, he once again charges at Seol Taepyeong with his sword.

The way he lowers his posture and adjusts his grip on his sword shows that he is a swordsman who has reached the highest level. I shouldn’t have been fooled by its ignorant appearance and thought that it would only make straight attacks.

– Whirr!

‘Heocho!’

Pretends to make a large horizontal cut, then comes in with a stab.

The movement was so skillful that even Seol Taepyeong, who had sharp eyes, almost missed it for a moment.

– Kaang!

Sweeping away with a heavy sword, Seol Taepyeong bent his body sharply, stood, and leaped onto the dirt road outside.

– Kwadangtang!

I couldn’t land, and had to roll around on the floor and get up again.

Il-gwi, who jumps from the remains of the building, also lands on the floor.

– Coo!

There was a huge tremor for a moment, and Ilgwi rushed back and leapt through the rain.

The intention was not to give Seol Taepyeong any time to rest. He was clearly judging what he should do to win.

– Woe! Kaang!

Seoltaepyeong’s sword bounced once loudly. However, the hand holding the sword does not relax.

Using the recoil as power, Seol Taepyeong turned his body once and climbed onto Ilgwi’s wrist. Using the centrifugal force that turned his body, he stretched out his arm and stabbed Ilgwi’s eye with his hand.

– Boom!

However, even the cornea cannot be pierced.

For a normal person, both eyes are a fatal weakness that can never be trained.

However, even the eyes of this monster were as strong as steel.

“Really… I’m out of my mind, crazy…!”

This was the moment when Seol Tae-pyeong quickly changed his posture and quickly landed on the floor.

– Percussion! Woe!

A chain suddenly flew in and wrapped around Ilgwi’s arms.

After that, five assassins wearing black cotton cloths appeared and pulled the chain tightly, trapping the man’s movements.

Another assassin appears from the ruins of the collapsed library building and pierces Ilgwi’s neck with a reversed sword.

After that, he kicked Ilgwi’s back, widened the distance again, and landed next to Seoltaepyeong.

“Kaaa!”

However, even though his neck was pierced by the sword, Ilgwi Pyeongyang waved his hand wide and cut off all the chains.

The shock causes all the assassins to fall out.

– Kwadangtang! Quang!

– Quang!

It wasn’t a long time, but in any case, we were able to give Seol Taepyeong time to regain his bearings.

A group of ghost hunters, Heukwoldae.

Black Moon Captain Cheong Jin-myeong, who landed next to Seol Tai-pyeong, lowered his head and said.

“I arrived as instructed.”

“How are you handling the work?”

“The concubine side is finished. “The Crown Prince’s Palace dispatched five teams, but the report has not yet come back.”
