Heavenly Demon Cultivation Simulation-Novel

Chapter 314: A Nice Presence (1)

An identification number—

This term, which he learned later, was a number given to something which the system recognizes a human as “existing.” Then, what was this error and when did it come?

Presumably, due to the existence of an unknown, it appeared that the simulation had something it could not quantify.

Cheon Miryo—

Originally, in this world. She was a person who did not leave the place she hid in. Whether the reason was for her master’s words or something else, she was a person who did not appear in the world until he was dying.

After she made contact with Seol-Hwi, she left her hiding place.

Because of this, she was recognized as an unknown existence without an identification number, and the simulation implemented countless cases to derive the results she would cause.

“Isn’t that a symptom of blood runaway?”

“You, who are you?”

“Now is the chance! Do not miss it!”

“What is… what are you up to!”

Thud! Swish!

His head felt numb with these voices which flowed into his ears. Other than the people around, did anyone notice his condition?

What was this? What did the chance mean?

Euk.

Clearly his eyes were closed and he could see nothing, but he could see the faces of the End Demon, Goo Jong-myung, and angry elders.

Naturally he felt more confused.

“Just. I feel like it is someone I shouldn’t lose.”

“Ha. That is completely different.”

“The eyes… are they alright?”

Too many voices had overlapped, and the voices split, so he could only understand bits and pieces of what they were saying.

What is happening to me?

It was a situation where things were worse for his body, so he did not think he would live to check it…

“Kuak!”

“Stop him. Put the honor of Mount Hua on the line!”

“Huh, kids. I will kill all of them.”

“If you live then so do I. Hurry up and look!”

Seol-Hwi felt frustrated—

At the voices which continued to overlap in the ears.

Something was happening, but he could not see anything nor even lift a finger. Just how long would this situation continue? Would this ever end?

It is fine. Cheon Miryo is still there.

Seol-Hwi forcibly tried to calm himself as his heart was beating rapidly due to rushing in anxiety by thinking of her. When Cheon Miryo showed off her full potential, she was at the Profound Demon level. She could produce enough strength close to everyone there.

Of course, it would be tough since she was not someone he could use as he pleased, but was he not in a crisis?

In the end, it means that it was prepared for the possibility of using her—

Just once.

The absolute warrior who could solve both his problems and the situation at hand.

Chiik

Ugh!

This odd sound pierced his ears, it was the sound of metal scratching or this unpleasant flute ringing.

In the midst of it, when it felt like a little more time had passed, unknown voices flowed into his ears again.

“Something… just now… that strength…”

“Hahaah! This is so absurd…”

“Kill her! If left alone we will all suffer!”

“Eik, Mount Hua, these bastards!”

Kwaang!

Ah!

At the end came this deafening explosion, and this caused some light to filter into his eyes.

It signaled the end of the simulation.

“…!?”

Blink. Blink.

Recovering his vision, Seol-Hwi wondered what was happening.

“Cough… Cough…”

The First Disciple, the End Demon—

The sword in the hand was broken with his body covered in blood. Then the one who left him in this state was…

Mount Hua?

There were 5 to 6 people in elder uniforms. And judging from the plum blossom marks on the chest, it had to be them. But their entire bodies had broken down and had been torn like someone had crushed them.

There was no chance of living at all.

They…

Their faces were familiar. Were they not the elders of Mount Hua who showed exhilarated expressions when Seol-Hwi showed them the divine arts?

Did the End Demon fight with Mount Hua?

That was all he could guess for now. But the situation felt like it was lacking something.

First, Cheon Miryo was missing. And the three warriors who came with the End Demon were missing too.

Dudud

Uh? My body…

Seol-Hwi only noticed it later, but clearly his body had become stiff before the simulation had come, and it felt intact now.

Throb

It seemed like the qi inside the body had not fully recovered considering the pain when his qi moved.

But still, this was a lot better compared to coughing up blood like before. He must have gotten through the pain with the help of someone, and there is just one who could do that.

Cheon Miryo. She helped me who was almost dead with the qi runaway… uh?

Crack

Seol-Hwi who was sorting out the situation one piece at a time felt goosebumps rise as he met eyes with the End Demon, who looked like he wanted to kill him.

“Kuak. You, finally awake now…”

Crack

The End Demon’s face was filled with extreme anger. Why? For what reason?

He could not know. He could not even guess because there were too many possibilities. But the important thing was that now there was hostility towards him, and Seol-Hwi barely felt his consciousness move.

Crack

Damn it. this body…!

As he tried to prepare for a fight, his entire body was in pain, it felt like nails were being driven into him. Somehow, he managed to get past the qi runaway, but he was not in the state where he could fight against the End Demon.

No, it would be difficult to even avoid an attack.

“Dieee! You stubborn bastard!”

Papat

The End Demon closed in right then.

Pat!

He attacked without another thought despite the blood dripping down from his body. And he moved swiftly. Seol-Hwi raised his hand out of reflex.

However, it was close to impossible to block the attack now.

Kaaang!

“Euk…!”

However, the blood qi did not pierce his stomach. Suddenly, it instead disappeared in front of his body like it had never existed.

Who?

Seol-Hwi turned his head to see Goo Jong-myung next to him, panting.

“What are you looking at? Would we dare let someone attack the benefactor of the sect?”

He was out of breath, and it looked like he was already at his limit. But, only his eyes felt clear. As if the mind had all its doubts shaken off.

“Benefactor…? Ahh, this moron… in the end the one who betrays the person he joined hands with and takes care of the other side is the justice faction…”

“Speak however you want to. End Demon, you will not survive today.”

“Kuak, who said that?”

Jjhhhh!

As he said it, these ominous flames covered the trees and the surrounding area. The Four Peak Demonic Martial Arts, Flame.

The End Demon was unleashing the most deadly arts from his entire body, like a person who reached the peak of martial arts. And even Goo Jong-myung, who was dealing with him, felt his sword tremble.

That!

Seol-Hwi’s eyes widened. This faint crimson light which spread on his sword, the power which reminded him of the deep red sunset was completely different from the purple energy he was giving out before.

Purple Cloud Divine Arts…

Seol-Hwi finally got it. The show he did, and the skill he handed down.

As a result, what Goo Jong-myung was missing was finally understood. So with the newly completed arts, he was somehow managing to fight against the End Demon. An ally and not an enemy.

“Euk…”

Shhh

With the appearance of Goo Jong-myung, Seol-Hwi managed to relax a bit, he saw the corpses around, and checking the messy conditions, he put his thoughts together.

Little by little, he understood what the shouts were. Cheon Miryo came out to help him. In addition, the energy of the Purple Cloud settled into his body because of her.

“Now is your chance! You cannot let this go!”

The End Demon would not be alone.

“Just. It just felt like it was someone I shouldn’t lose.”

There, Mount Hua had chosen to save Seol-Hwi. To be precise, Goo Jong-myung did.

“Stop them. Risk the honor of Mount Hua!”

A fight between the End Demon and Mount Hua’s best. It was probably clear that Mount Hua was pushed back.

Perhaps because of the increased difficulty, the End Demon’s party were all Supreme Demon warriors, and Mount Hua had just two Supreme Masters.

The old people who were now corpses were proof of that.

“If you live, I live too. That power…”

“Kill that one! If left alone we will suffer.”

And in a close situation, Cheon Miryo showed her full potential. It was estimated that their party, including the End Demon, had suffered a lot of damage.

‘And…’

Kiiing!

And then came this strong blast. It seemed that the fight wasn’t done yet. No, maybe it was shut down. The fact that Cheon Miryo had moved. It must have been decided that Seol-Hwi couldn’t be harmed.

The only thing Cheon Miryo did not think of was the End Demon who managed to survive by luck.

In a situation where everything could collapse at a moment’s notice, Goo Jong-myung was fortunately still alive.

Kwakwakwakwang!

Damn it.

Seol-Hwi hoped that somehow this situation would get better. To do so, he had to control this internal energy. Or drive out the new energy all together. Or maybe take a day to handle it.

“Euk. Eukk…!”

Seol-Hwi did everything he could. The time when he was thinking about how to get over this state, releasing the energy.

“Kuak!”

This arm engulfed in flames fell in front of his eyes. When Seol-Hwi raised his eyes, there was this old man holding his arm.

This!

It was Goo Jong-myung. No matter how much he managed to use the Purple Cloud Divine Arts, it was the sudden realization immediately on the spot. It seemed that he ended up in ruin, unable to handle the strength of the End Demon.

Ah. If this had happened a day late, it would have been a mess.

The End Demon looked like this was a good thing despite his critical condition.

From Seol-Hwi’s own experience, Mount Hua’s arts were not lacking at all. If the opponent had just a little more time, then the End Demon would have been the one having a tough time.

“Kukuk. Kuakaka!!!”

Goo Jong-myung burst into madness even as he was gasping for air.

“What is so funny about this? You are going to die soon?”

The End Demon frowned. Even in the middle of killing him, the attitude was annoying to him.

“Can’t you see?”

“…What?”

“The honorable Mount Hua, the disciples of Mount Hua who reign over their heavens. You seem good in my eyes.”

“…Is that so? Then you are one who will die with such dreams.”

The End Demon picked his blade up and slowly brought it down without another thought.

“Ughhh!”

Goo Jong-myung’s entire body was drenched in flames, but he had a smile on his face—A bright future which has never been achieved, the one who died today, without any regret.

Looking at the future of Mount Hua which seemed fine, he finally stepped out. He smiled until the end which made the End Demon smile.

“Haa… phew… one guy down.”

The End Demon turned his head to see Seol-Hwi sitting cross legged.

“And the other will soon follow.”

Chak

He raised his sword again.

“…”

Seol-Hwi gritted his teeth. The energy in his body entered the meridians. He came up with a way to push it through, and regain control. There was the method of changing to Profound Demon too.

Of course, both were uncertain gambles.

Wheik

“DIEEE!”

The sword of the End Demon gave out sparks.

And while Seol-Hwi thought about which between the two. He felt sorry.

He was late. He left without talking.

Now, even if the great being came back, he would not survive this.

Of course.

He did not know if there was someone higher than the great being.

-You are still alive?

“…???”

He doubted his ears.

But, as if time had stopped, he realized the flames were not moving, and in this desperate situation “that one” intervened.

-Do not worry. If it was me, you could have solved this easily. I’m quite experienced, you know.

There were times when he was filled with annoyance, and there were times where he hated him. And times where he felt like he did not need him.

But his appearance was so reassuring like the noodles he would often have—

Especially, when the situation is the worst.
