Chapter 171: The Wrong Path (3)While infiltrating the pavilion, Seol-Hwi’s head was filled with just one thought.
How could he kill the Supreme Pavilion Lord without making a single sound?
The buildings shouldn’t be destroyed because it would cause too much attention, and that attention would cause Goo Jong-myung to appear.
Martial Supreme Peak Wind God. If he could use it as a defensive skill, then he might be able to do it.
If he approached the opponent at close range and then fired off his martial arts right at their stomach, they would be unable to defend and be torn to pieces.
But he thought,
Or what happens if the Supreme Pavilion Lord notified his men in advance?
His flame arts were known to be strong. And if he tackled him head on, there would surely be a shockwave which would spread to all the buildings around like the previous time.
Fortunately however, Seol-Hwi now had the long blade with him.
Since he mastered it enough, he might be able to get rid of the attack from the opponent.
But then he ran into a problem.
She possesses strong martial arts and was someone he should be wary about. Furthermore, she was known to be an expert in infiltration.
With such a person as an escort, it was not going to be easy to kill the man. It was obvious that she would intervene.
It could be said that the bigger prize was being missed due to turn based not working, it was a function with which he could avoid danger and get things done.
An attack which can take him back to three seconds or a turn based attack—
In such a situation that was the most optimal ability.
After parting with his men, he ran ahead and looked at the Supreme Pavilion.
From here, he had to move cautiously. Seol-Hwi used his footwork to carefully climb up.
Shh
The tiles of the roof rattled slightly.
It was a martial art specialized in concealing the body’s energy, but it was also effective in making the body lighter.
While trying to move the tiles, Seol-Hwi felt troubled.
In the past life, Heuk Bi appeared as soon as he moved in. That meant she should be around here.
In case of emergencies, she too must have thought of coming down the roof. That way if he moved, then he would be discovered.
The best thing would be to look for her and drive a knife through her back, making sure she would not speak.
But how could he do that when the opponent was not around?
Come to think of it, that skill had the ability to guess the location of something.
Not just that, but it could block sound too.
Incredible Airflow—
He had to make it rise between the hall and Heuk Bi so the sound doesn’t leak out.
But there was a problem. It was a skill which could only be used once a day.
Seol-Hwi checked its table.
*Incredible Airflow: (Useable three times a day)* (Blink eyes three or more times in a row)
He was surprised. Could this be due to him leveling up?
What he could use only once previously could now be used up to three times a day.
Seol-Hwi thought about where to use it three times and then blinked.
<Incredible Airflow is being used.>
Huh
Seol-Hwi could see clearly into the office from the roof.
In the area he could see something above the Supreme Pavilion Lord.
A human was lying motionless on the outside ceiling with a balcony.
Shhh
Seol-Hwi extended the airflow, and at the same time he lowered his body and took out the sword as he approached Heuk Bi.
Sshh
Seol-Hwi was upright and ready.
Ice or fire? Or just use the sword? Seol-Hwi who was thinking just pushed the sword.
Shh! Puak!
The energy was put on the tip of the sword and he felt it being pushed into flesh. Then, Seol-Hwi used ice qi.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt“…”
And with slightest movement, Heuk Bi stopped moving.
Following this unexpected attack, cold qi spread into her heart in an instant, rendering her unable to speak.
Shh!
Seol-Hwi carefully moved her to the side, leaving the sword within. Then he entered the pavilion.
Pah!
With the curtain of airflow disappearing by then, he could see the Supreme Pavilion Lord.
Was it because he believed in Heuk Bi? Or was it because he was skilled? It felt like he was completely immersed in work.
Huh
Seol-Hwi took a small breath and lowered his body.
The airflow vanished and fortunately he could remove Heuk Bi, but this man was bound to notice his attempt on his life soon.
The smell of blood—
The sword of Seol-Hwi that had pierced Heuk Bi’s heart—
The blood could already be smelled right now, so the longer he took, the worse the situation would get.
Hmm!
The moment Seol-Hwi took another breath and waited.
“What!”
Pat!
Supreme Pavilion Lord Sama Gwi responded using fire qi.
It was expected from someone on the level of Peak Demon like him. However, Seol-Hwi immediately dissipated the energy like it had been a lie.
Was he embarrassed by that? He looked shocked.
Tuk!
At that moment, Seol-Hwi lunged into close range and decided to attack.
“Bye.”
<Martial Supreme Peak Wind God is being used.>
Papapak!
Lightning spread out in all directions and then came the black storm.
Goo!
It hovered in the palm of his hand. The impact should be good enough to tear apart his insides.
“…!”
Tak!
Seol-Hwi blocked the scream from Sama Gwi with his other hand and—
Uk
“Kuak!”
He tried to bite as he could feel himself losing. Fortunately, after some time, the energy dissipated.
“Phew.”
Seol-Hwi wiped his forehead and looked around. After that, he quickly got out of the room with the sword and blade.
After that, he felt thoroughly drained.
“I did it.”
He felt thrilled that he managed to end this pretty fast without a mess like last time and without running into Goo Jong-myung.
Supreme Pavilion Lord Sama Gwi—
It was a disappointing job to finish such a long hatred so simply.
“Then, with that the mission ended…”
Seol-Hwi came out and thought to himself as he went back to hiding on the roof.
Where is the man the AI spoke about?
How many lives can he get from that person?
From what he said, he had to be near the Supreme Pavilion Lord. But then he felt dizzy.
Was it because of relief?
The fact that a skilled warrior was near the Supreme Pavilion and not somewhere else, there had to be a reason.
Was it because he wanted to meet the Supreme Pavilion lord?
No. It should not be that. If he was a man who wanted to meet Sama Gwi, he should have met the man long ago.
Then, to appease his boredom?
Considering the nature of such men, it could be so.
But then, the man could be in the Crimson Demon Hall as well.
There were so many unknown presences around the lake to the west, so it felt like the place he could be in.
He thought something could be found in here.
An expert in staying hidden—a person seeking enlightenment.
Perhaps, there was some clue about the martial arts of the Supreme Pavilion Lord in here. Or maybe there were some clues to enlightenment.
Compared to the other pavilions, the Supreme Pavilion was a place which stood out the most.
The Heavenly Library—
It was the only place which held the martial arts of the Five Pavilions.
Excluding the books in the place, the best volumes could be counted on three fingers.
Drr
“Who are you?”
The one who reacted vigorously as he opened the door to the library was Duhong.
Seol-Hwi used an illusion skill, glanced at Duhong, and opened his mouth.
“Are there people inside?”
“W-who do you mean?’
Shh
Duhong’s voice trembled a little when the stranger was speaking out boldly.
Seol-Hwi thought about killing him for the past torture but changed his mind.
“You must be Duhong.”
“…Uh?”
“I heard you are good at handling things? The other day, the Earth Demon also said that he had interest in here. Right now, Pyo Gam is the one leading this place?”
“Ah, yes. Well.”
“Fine. I have work.”
“Yes! Please come in.”
Duhong lowered his head.
He seemed to think that the opponent was of a high status and was being meek right now. Seol-Hwi walked with arrogant steps, but then stopped.
“Ah. I have one thing to ask.”
“Uh? What…”
“There must be someone who came here a while back. The sight seems strange to me, he was someone who should be coming in and out of here, and no one would stop him… someone of that level?”
Seol-Hwi immediately went to the main point.
The only thing Seol-Hwi knew about the man was “Wang Mo-ryeok,” his name.
It would take time to search the entire place for one person, so instead he asked about him.
“Ah… the weird guy? In the basement.”
The answer came right away and Seol-Hwi moved with a stiff face.
The opponent was someone on the level of Supreme Demon.
The AI said that he could be fought on an equal level, but that also meant that he would have to do his best.
Da-dump!
The fact that he was going against a skilled and experienced person put pressure on him.
When he entered the basement, there were no people around, so he walked to the bookshelves and turned to see someone at the far edge.
Shh!
The sound of book opening and something being munched on—
Seol-Hwi could spot an old man lying on the floor.
The man appeared to be in cotton clothing with a few strands of hair astray and old shoes. Just looking at him, he seemed like a beggar.
Step
Seol-Hwi walked over with a nervous expression, the old man with the book in hand didn’t seem to care.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“What?”
The old man gently turning the pages in the book asked as he was approached. Seol-Hwi asked in response,
“Your name please?”
“What good will that do?”
“I was wondering if you are the person I was looking for.”
“So you are looking for someone?”
“That…”
Silence fell.
When Seol-Hwi didn’t answer, he shut the book and smiled. He stared at Seol-Hwi.
“This is quite good! I didn’t know there was such a warrior in the Supreme Pavilion!”
“…?!”
Seol-Hwi didn’t answer. He was shocked at how this man responded.
Tiuk
The old man got up and stood.
“I am Wang Mo-ryeol. I was actually elsewhere but I came here and stopped by. Have you ever seen me? How did you find me?”
Seol-Hwi’s eyes widened. The AI was right.
“I revealed my identity, so you?”
At that, Seol-Hwi said,
“I am Seol-Hwi, the Earth Demon’s secret warrior.”
“What? The Fourth Disciple’s secret warrior? Then why find me?”
He looked at Seol-Hwi curiously.
“Haha, that…”
Seol-Hwi felt his body tingle as this felt all different.
He didn’t feel demonic qi nor did he feel any hostility from him.
He looked like a normal person, so he felt even more nervous.
The best warriors were known to hide their energy.
The AI said that the two of them were of the same skill level, then what in the world was this?
This man seemed to be like Goo Jong-myung. No, not just like him, it felt like this man was even more skilled.
So turn back and…
“Ah, I get it. Such things do happen.”
“…?”
“Those who come from training in words but came for another purpose. All lies. It is hard to control the rise of killing intent, so you decided to target someone to vent your anger on? Is that why you came too?”
“…As if I would.”
“If not then what? Come on.”
He beckoned Seol-Hwi to get closer as he was stepping back. He moved around and now they were in the basement side.
Shh
Stopping, he raised his hand.
“Man, this is a difficult situation, but… could it be a fun experience then? I was also quite bored during this time.”
“…”
“As a senior in the sect, I will give you a chance.”
“Uh?”
“Come on.”
It was certain. Something horrible was happening here.
“Elder. The thought of fighting an old man…”
“Ah. Shut up and attack you pussy.”
The opponent took a stance.
Shhh
The air began to move along the body and gradually it felt like green energy could be seen.
“Or do you want me to come first?”
It was then that Seol-Hwi felt it.
This bastard was a crazy one!
