The Heavenly Demon Can't Live a Normal Life

Chapter 274: Second Coming Of Heavenly Demon (6)

People groaned. The blood that was spilled all over the floor shocked Duke Bamford.

‘…Did Diego just lose to a 4-star swordsman?’

It was shocking. Having experienced numerous wars as a commander to the point of being called a veteran, he possessed extensive knowledge of sword techniques.

So he accepted Roman Dmitry’s challenge. Even if he prepared a special plan that no one would expect, it didn’t make sense for Diego, a member of the 12 Swords of the Continent, to lose against Chris.

The 12 swords. Among the numerous aura tests, they were monsters that had risen to the peak. He had a 6-star aura that was normal among them, and it could even destroy Chris’s existence.

But he was defeated. He couldn’t even properly check how Chris’s attack was attempted, and in a situation where he was looking at it with eyes wide open, blood suddenly splashed from Diego’s chest.

In the first place, it was an embarrassing moment for a 6-star aura swordsman to fight against a 4-star aura swordsman.

Watching Diego stumble and collapse, his face slumped to the ground and bled, and Duke Bamford watched this in silence.

Blood flowed. The blood that flowed in the hollow ground was Diego’s, who died in vain.

“Woahhhhh!”

“Chris! Chris!”

“Chris! Chris!”

In Cairo, the soldiers of the Dmitry Alliance cheered. They also thought from the moment Diego’s name was mentioned that it would be difficult for Chris to win, but his performance was so overwhelming that they witnessed an unexpected result.

They didn’t analyze this fight with common sense. Even if an unexpected blow had decided the match, the fact that Chris had won was the most important thing.

The first fight was a victory for Dmitry. Looking at Chris step back while wiping off the blood on his sword, Kevin stepped ahead as if he had been waiting.

‘Damn it.’

Duke Bamford’s expression changed. There were only two 6-star aura swordsmen in this plan. Some of them were mobilized for other purposes, and when Diego was defeated, he wanted to put Hannibal down.

Even though Hannibal was also a 6-star aura swordsman, he was on a different level. In that case, it wouldn’t be a problem for Kevin, who was known as just a 3-star swordsman, to be defeated. However, the problem was that they had already gone through this.

Repeating their words was something that didn’t match Kronos’s status.

Then Duke Bamford gulped down his anger and called out a name,

“Blanco.”

“Yes.”

It was a man in his early 40s. A man with a huge body and impressive face stepped out at Duke Bamford’s call.

“The opponent is just a 3-star swordsman. I warn you in advance that the moment you lose against that guy, your entire family will be annihilated. Do you know what that means? Defeat is an unacceptable fight. However, if you return with the name of the Kronos Empire high in the sky, I will make sure to reward you for it.”

“…I understand.”

He nodded his head. He looked slightly nervous, but since Blanco was strong, he was confident. The opponent in front looked so weak that he doubted how this person could be chosen as a Great Warrior.

He stepped forward.

“I am Blanco.”

Giving their name was basic manner. However, there was no answer. Kevin mumbled something as he stood, and his voice was so small that no one could even hear it. And this made Blanco’s expression distort.

He was the most powerful being outside the top 6-star swordsmen and reached 7th place in Kronos’s ranking.

In a situation where even hearing his name would make a person shudder, Kevin’s appearance, who didn’t acknowledge him, ignited his anger.

“There is no need for words.”

Chak!

He held the sword. No questions or answers were needed. Rather, it was what Blanco, who was desperate for victory, wanted.

Tak.

Rumble.

He kicked the ground. This raging aura occurred, and the distance with his opponent was shortened in an instant, and Blanco raised his aura to 5-stars nonchalantly.

But Kevin still didn’t move. The moment Blanco swung his sword right in front of his nose, his red eyes caught Blanco’s movements.

Kwang!

Rumble!

There was this terrifying crash. Kevin attacked the most vulnerable part of his 5-star aura, and, at the same time, twisted his sword slightly to dig into his opponent’s arms.

It was quite frustrating. It annoyed him how he had to block a mere 3-star aura, but he was hitting and rushing in as if he didn’t care about his wounds.

“How dare you?”

Rumble!

His sword flashed! He quickly retrieved his sword and attacked Kevin, and in an instant, several battles were exchanged.

‘There is a gap.’

Kevin’s chest was wide open. Without missing a beat, Blanco immediately stretched out his sword, but he witnessed a shocking scene.

Kevin was also attempting an attack. At this rate, it was clear that he was aiming for the left, but he would actually attack to the right. However, the trouble was short-lived.

He was sure that he was faster than Kevin, but he couldn’t make a reckless choice when he saw his eyes drenched in madness.

Pat!

And he dodged the attack. As expected, Kevin didn’t back down. Blanco counter-attacked and slashed Kevin’s arm.

Slash.

He tasted something in his mouth. It was clearly blood, but Kevin’s expression didn’t distort in pain, nor did he even step back.

It was a sight they couldn’t even understand. As if it was his chance to attack, when Blanco was pulling back his sword, Kevin rushed in.

Pat!

He wanted to cut his head off. But Kevin slightly dodged and aimed for his chest instead.

Pat!

Blanco stepped back and also aimed for his chest while exploding his aura.

The aura stirred up this fierce impulse. In a situation where his aura’s unique, strong force wasn’t felt, Blanco knew that the opponent blocked his attack in a way he didn’t know.

Flash.

He turned his head.

It was a surprise attack from Kevin. It was admirable how Kevin decided to block his attack and boldly rush at him from such a close distance.

A 3-star aura went against a 5-star one. He was bold and didn’t back down at all. He could see why people were afraid of the 3-star swordsman, who was called Dmitry’s ghost.

But…

‘As expected, he isn’t my opponent.’

He was feeling it little by little. Every time they crashed violently, the opponent’s strength decreased. Even though he was somehow blocking the attacks, the difference in their destructive power was slowing down.

He clearly had the advantage in this fight. Blanco wasn’t in a hurry, but he decided to take down Kevin, who didn’t acknowledge his existence, little by little.

It was best not to overdo it with such a madman. No matter how he would win, if he lost one of his body parts, he would live a life as a crippled man, and his life as a swordsman would come to an end.

This time too. The sword passed, and the attack missed. Just as he was about to strike back, this urgent voice came from behind.

“Get yourself together, Blanco! You are being cornered!”

It was Duke Bamford.

At that moment, his heart sank. In the breathless situation, Blanco didn’t have a proper grasp of his situation.

One step.

Two steps.

And he took three steps back to counter the opponent’s attack.

‘…what is this?!’

Suddenly, the soldiers were right behind him, in a corner.

He entered the realm of encroachment, and his head was spinning. Even as he descended into madness, Kevin expressed his dissatisfaction with the situation.

“I was hoping for a 6-star aura swordsman. I was hoping for a 6-star aura swordsman like that time, not you.”

At those words, Blanco was shocked. He couldn’t understand the way Kevin drove himself to a corner and spoke as if he were just talking to himself.

In the last few days, Roman Dmitry’s teachings have led Kevin to a new world.

At the moment when the process of realizing the essence of aura was shocking, the existence of the Heavenly Demon Sword technique, which Roman taught him, was shocking.

‘That’s how they learned the first half of the sword.’

He explained that the Heavenly Demon Divine Arts was an area he couldn’t master after learning the Ghost Demon Arts, and that even if he only used the first half of it, his body would be limited.

On that day, he held this mighty strength in his hand. In a situation that was different from before, he wanted to test his strength against the 6-star aura swordsman.

But Blanco stepped out, which only made Kevin angry. Kevin, who pushed the opponent deliberately into the corner, said with eyes drunk in madness,

“I will attack you three times now. If you block all of them, I will admit defeat and surrender my head.”

The opponent was cornered, so he had to do his very best.

Blanco was furious. Kevin’s remarks seemed to suggest that he was one step ahead of him.

“You cheeky…”

It was then…

‘First half of the Heavenly Demon Sword technique.’

Rumbleee!

Aura exploded. Blanco also hurriedly raised his aura and resisted the attack, which was done in a situation where it was impossible to retreat.

Kwang!

Kwakwakwang!

A great shock occurred. The soldiers, who were watching the situation, fell to the ground, and Blanco was shocked as the mana vanished at once.

His eyes were trembling. According to public information, he was a 3-star aura swordsman. It made no sense for Kevin to be able to use such a shocking attack.

‘First form of the Heavenly Demon Sword.’

Rumbleee.

The next attack was Kevin’s second chance. Due to the unusual energy, Blanco gritted his teeth and raised his power.

He believed in himself. In this fight against strength, it was impossible for him to be defeated by a swordsman who just had a 3-star aura.

But…

Crack.

Aura shattered. Cracks appeared in his 5-star aura, and the aura that was shattering in places spread everywhere.

Crack.

And that was Blanco’s last memory. It was still just Kevin’s second attack, but the attack tore his aura at once, and cut down his body.

“Kuaaak!”

Puak!

Blood splashed. He staggered with an unfocused look as he fell to his knees.

Three attacks. And it was just the second of them. Kevin was in a situation where he couldn’t check his strength, and he looked down at Blanco with cold eyes.

“I told you. I was hoping for a 6-star swordsman.”

Flash.

His neck was cut, and his head flew into the sky. And beyond that, he could see Duke Bamford’s face stained with shock.

They were forced to understand Diego’s defeat. Chris’s sword technique, which they had already witnessed, showed enough strength to ignore the level of aura.

But it was hard to accept Blanco’s defeat. Even though Kevin only had a 3-star aura, it was so devastating that he overpowered a 5-star aura in a simple fight.

And for Duke Bamford, it felt like the world of common sense had collapsed. Regardless of the reason, the situation that happened in front of his eyes was something that couldn’t happen in reality.

Kevin’s condition wasn’t looking good. And the attack just now seemed to have an effect on him, but that didn’t change the way he attacked.

The spar was done, and victory was on Dmitry’s side. This was such a humiliating situation, and Duke Bamford shuddered at it.

“Roman Dmitry. I don’t know what kind of trick he did, but the outcome of the Battle of Great Warriors doesn’t determine the outcome of the war.”

He denied this reality. In a situation where they were screaming in anger, Roman smiled. For him, this was confirmation. Roman Dmitry was hoping for an all-out war right from the start.

Everyone on the continent, including the Kronos Empire and the Kingdoms’ Alliance, denied the reality, saying that wasn’t the case, but this insane guy had no intention of avoiding a head-on fight with Kronos.

It was something he wanted. The fact that there were people in the world who had similar thoughts, and that the situation had changed due to the result of the Battle of Great Warriors.

Roman Dmitry was real. The moment the situation went as he intended, it occurred to him that even a 300,000 army could be defeated.

Never think that anything is impossible. Duke Bamford bet on the odds.

“Troops, listen! Even though we lost the Battle of Great Warriors, this is nothing more than Roman Dmitry’s trick to win! We have enough strength to overwhelm them! The existence of 300,000 troops with an 8th-circle mage doesn’t give them even a 1% chance to win. Believe in yourself and trust the Empire. If you risk your life for the Empire, you will come out as winners.”

He shouted.

Normally, they would have taken a break after a Battle of Great Warriors, but he couldn’t miss even a moment’s opportunity after being defeated like that.

“Troops, attack!”

“Attack!”

The order fell. To the words that fell like lightning, the soldiers of the Kronos Empire rushed at once. A single speech changed the atmosphere, and in that raging air, they all looked confident.

Kronos!

The invincible army!

They all rushed in. And in response to this sudden attack, the soldiers of the Kingdoms’ Alliance raised their weapons.

It was at that moment, beyond the people and Kevin, Roman walked ahead.

And seeing Kevin trying to follow him, Roman said,

“You did well. From now on, it’s my turn.”

This war was reckless, like people said. But living as Baek Joong-hyeok, the Heavenly Demon, was never easy.

Shhh.

He picked up his sword.

The Central Plain warriors were said to be the First in Heaven.

If there was a sword technique that represented the Heavenly Demon, it would be the nine forms.

There were nine forms that supported him. Throughout his life, Roman Dmitry never used the power to unite his thought, speed, and sword movement.

And now, facing the crowd of enemies, Roman Dmitry took the first step.

‘Heavenly Demon King’s Reign Step.’

Finally, the true Heavenly Demon stepped in.
