Episode 187. Being Targeted (3)

The once clear stream had now turned a reddish color.

The water no longer reflected the scenery as transparently as a mirror, and corpses were floating here and there.

visor-

In a stream stained with blood and corpses, Cheon Myeong-myeong was swinging his sword.

A large number of black-clad people suddenly appeared.

Although he couldn’t be sure of their identity, in this situation, he could only think of one place that would be so determined to kill him.

Darkness. Cheon Myeong-Myeong thought that these were definitely the assassins sent from there.

“…….”

There was also other evidence to support the belief that they were assassins sent from the shadow realm.

At first glance, it seemed like their martial arts were specialized for killing people.

Of course, most martial arts are focused on defeating enemies, but these ones… … felt like they had a strong will to take the lives of their enemies, regardless of the means and methods.

All the attacks are so brutal that you could almost call every single movement a murder.

In fact, it was closer to murder than martial arts.

‘So this is a family that specializes in assassination?’

Cheon Myeong-Myeong was able to clearly understand why he had such a reputation after fighting him.

The eyes of the black-clad men who were approaching us, surrounding us… … . I felt no emotion there.

Wouldn’t it be normal to feel some emotion when committing murder?

But to them, it seemed like this was natural, and they just carried out their killing with dry eyes.

“…….”

This is a look that cannot be achieved without spending a lot of time training.

Killing people seemed as natural to them as eating food.

Swish-.

But that was also the case with Cheon Myeong Myeong.

Cheon Myeong-Myeong didn’t feel a single bit of emotion towards the enemy who was trying to kill him.

They are just killed because they are enemies.

Whatever their identity, they were simply pointing their weapons at him, so he simply had to kill them.

Pot-.

At that moment, several men in black rushed towards Cheon Myeong-myeong.

Just as we saw Cheon Myeong-myeong freely moving through the water and killing enemies earlier, the enemies now rushing towards Cheon Myeong-myeong were approaching while stepping on the frozen part of the stream.

A number of new types approach, stepping on the ice here and there as if they were stepping on stepping stones.

One of them reached where Cheon Myeong-myeong was and swung his sword.

“……?”

But as if mocking his efforts, as soon as the man in black swung his sword, Cheon Myeong-myeong left the spot.

‘It seems like there is no one who can perfectly fly on water.’

Waterskiing. Literally means jumping on water.

When your stamina reaches a certain level, you will be able to move quickly on land and even jump on water.

That is the realm of the water level. Or, the realm of climbing up and dropping down and crossing the water.

As the achievements of the Heavenly Light and Thunderbolt increased, Cheon Myeong Myeong had already reached that level.

“……!”

Cheon Myeong-Myeong began to move quickly with a flash of light.

The black-clad men were approaching Cheon Myeong-myeong while walking on the ice. Cheon Myeong-myeong suddenly appeared in front of one of them.

Whoosh-.

When Cheon Myeong-myeong suddenly appeared, the enemy looked momentarily confused, but soon regained their composure and swung their swords.

But Cheon Myeong Myeong also swings his sword and easily blocks it.

Perhaps it was because the swords clashed violently. At that moment, an ominous sound was heard from the ice the enemy was stepping on.

“……!”

The season was now changing from winter to spring.

If it were midwinter, the stream would have been frozen solid enough that it wouldn’t break with such an impact, but now the ice was so thin that it could easily break with just a little impact.

If the ice breaks and you fall into the water like this, you will instantly lose the high point that was advantageous to Cheon Myeong-myeong.

The enemy stepped back toward the ice he had just come across.

Kwajik-!

But that wasn’t a good number either.

Because I ran so quickly in an urgent situation, the impact was transmitted directly to the ice, causing it to completely shatter as soon as my feet touched it.

And as if he knew that fact, Cheon Myeong-myeong immediately moved and swung his sword.

If you know that the enemy cannot move freely on the water, it is not very difficult to predict the enemy’s movements.

Since the ice floating on the surface of the water was the space where enemies could move, if you kept that in mind and predicted your path in advance, you could move much faster than the enemy’s reaction.

Chook-.

In the end, the enemy was beheaded as soon as he fell into the water by the swordsmanship of Cheon Myeong-myeong.

At that moment, another enemy rushes towards Cheon Myeong-myeong from the other side.

As if he didn’t think about what would happen next, he stepped on the ice nearby and ran towards Cheon Myeong-myeong without thinking.

Whoosh-.

If that was the case, it was a problem that could have been avoided without being accepted.

The only space the enemy could move was the ice. However, Cheonmyeongmyeong’s range of movement was the entire stream.

Cheon Myeong-Myeong was fighting while taking full advantage of this, and as a result, the enemy who had just bravely rushed towards him swung his sword into the air and plummeted to the surface.

with a splash-!

The enemy’s body was instantly submerged in water.

Even though the water was shallow, it was deep enough to reach his waist, so the assailant raised his head with his wet hair fluttering like a drowned rat.

At that moment, a sword strike flew right in front of the enemy’s eyes.

As if he had been waiting for the enemy to raise his head from the shell, Cheon Myeong-myeong swung his sword as soon as the enemy raised his head from the water.

Chook-.

In the end, this time too, I met a meaningless death.

Red-tinged streams and floating heads and bodies.

Until now, they had not shown any emotion, but now, with the overwhelming difference in power being shown one after another, emotions seemed to have appeared in their eyes.

A look of confusion as to what to do. They were clearly outnumbered, but they had no idea how to kill Cheon Myeong-myeong.

“Aren’t you coming?”

“……!”

“Then let’s go this way.”

It was a statement that seemed to have reversed the positions.

With those words, Cheon Myeong-myeong disappeared from that spot, and quickly moved across the water again, turning into a ray of light.

Enemies are confused by the flashy movements.

It seemed that he had not been trained to deal with enemies moving so quickly on the water, and every time Cheon Myeong-myeong swung his sword, the stream turned red with the enemy’s blood.

“……?”

In the end, the enemies’ choice was retreat.

It seems like there is no chance of winning in the water battle, so they decided to change the fighting location.

Many enemies had already turned into cold corpses and were flowing away, but the few enemies that survived retreated to the water’s edge.

Cheon Myeong-myeong watched the scene quietly and then opened his mouth as if he couldn’t understand.

“If I run away like this, what are you planning on doing by retreating all the way there?”

“……!”

“Hey, these days, assassins have to go to the target location themselves?”

It seemed that the enemies also realized that fact belatedly.

They had to kill the target, Cheon Myeong-Myeong, but the target had no reason to fight them.

If they escape using that speed, wouldn’t they be unable to chase after Cheon Myeong Myeong?

As I was wondering whether I should go back into the stream, Cheon Myeong-myeong opened his mouth again.

“I set the table for you, and now you’re asking me to feed you.”

“……?”

“There’s nothing I can do.”

At that moment, the enemies’ eyes widened.

Cheon Myeong Myeong was moving on the surface of the water again… … No matter how I looked at it, it wasn’t running away, but was walking towards me.

Within a few minutes, Cheon Myeong-myeong had walked out to the water’s edge, and now he had completely risen above ground.

“Try harder.”

“…….”

“Is this all there is to the Shadow Master’s assassins?”

It was a statement that contained clear provocation.

The enemies were silently maintaining their positions, but the gaze streaming from their eyes could not be hidden.

As if he couldn’t stand being insulted as a murderer, he could now sense anger in his eyes directed at Cheon Myeong-myeong.

“Do you have any pride as a killer?”

Cheon Myeong-myeong smiled faintly as he looked at that sight.

A number of new types are rushing towards Cheon Myeong Myeong.

This was not water, but land. The enemies were rushing forward more aggressively, as if trying to let Cheon Myeong-myeong know that fact.

Hwarurur-.

A powerful flame spreads in all directions at that moment.

Soon after, a fierce storm struck, causing the fire to spread more intensely in all directions.

“……!”

The scope was enormous.

All the assassins who had been rushing towards Cheon Myeong-myeong were standing within the reach of the flames.

The body of the assassin who was at the closest distance was instantly burned by the hot wind, and the enemies who were a little further away also appeared to have suffered slight burns.

“Oh, the face……!”

Among human deaths, the most painful one was burning to death.

Of course, strictly speaking, this is not fire, but rather the body being burned by high temperature wind, but depending on the situation, this could actually be more cruel.

Only those who have experienced it can understand the pain of having clothes and skin burn together.

Eventually, some people could not bear the pain and jumped into the water.

“Eww-!”

Soon, a louder scream was heard from the stream.

He went into the water because he couldn’t stand the heat transmitted to his skin, but his skin all over his body had already become necrotic due to the heat.

If you go into the water in that condition, you will only feel more pain.

The scorching heat might have cooled them down, but even for professionally trained assassins, unbearable pain awaited them.

Phew-.

In the end, there were those who could not bear the pain and chose to commit suicide.

The sudden onslaught of high-temperature wind was like a disaster to them, like an epidemic.

And the person responsible for causing the disaster, Cheon Myeong-Myeong, was standing there, holding the Wind Demon Sword and the Flame Sword in both hands.

“Hell of scorching heat.”

“……!”

“Looking at you all, this name seems fitting.”

Cheon Myeong-myeong muttered as if nothing had happened while looking at his enemies suffering from burns.

Twin Horse Swords, Hell of the Winds.

Cheon Myeong-Myeong just named that herb.

The energy of the storm and the heat wave was truly tremendous, and just as Cheon Myeong-myeong had just said, a scene reminiscent of hell was unfolding around them.

Swish-.

Most of the enemies who survived the burns were also incapacitated.

Cheon Myeong-Myeong moved towards the place where screams were occurring, and soon, with each swing of his sword and sword, the screams stopped one by one.

The few enemies that could fight rushed towards the thousand-man army, but in a situation where the battle was already completely over, it was nothing more than a useless struggle.

“…….”

The screaming suddenly stopped.

On the calm waters, only the corpses of enemies were strewn about in a hideous manner.

The scene looked like something straight out of hell, and at the center of it all was Cheon Myeong-myeong, the man who had drawn this hellish picture, standing covered in blood.

Whoosh-.

At that moment, Cheon Myeong-myeong pointed his sword sharply.

“Oh, name it! It’s me!”

“…….”

Where Cheon Myeong-myeong swung his sword, Cheon Yu-su stood.

Fortunately, Cheon Myeong-myeong stopped his sword just before the attack, allowing Cheon Yu-su to breathe a sigh of relief.

“As expected, you’re amazing. Who would have thought you could take down all those assassins by yourself?”

“…….”

“What is this? You didn’t need me to help you?”

Cheon Yu-su tried to approach Cheon Myeong-myeong while smiling.

However, Cheon Myeong-Myeong still aimed his sword at Cheon Yu-Su, which caused Cheon Yu-Su to stop walking and not approach Cheon Myeong-Myeong any further.

“What’s wrong? Naming.”

“…….”

“Are you mad because I didn’t help you and just hid? But I had no chance to intervene…….”

“I haven’t defeated all the enemies yet.”

At those words, Cheon Yu-su looked around with a bewildered look.

But since he didn’t see any more living enemies, Cheon Yu-su looked at Cheon Myeong-myeong again as if he was puzzled and said.

“Where is the enemy? I can’t see him.”

“here.”

“……?”

“I am aiming my sword now.”

The Wind Demon Sword that Cheon Myeong-myeong was aiming at… … The only person at the end of the sword was Cheon Yu-su.
