The Ex-Hero Is Too Good at Exorcism - The Ex-Hero Is Too Good at Exorcism chapter 83

83.

Cagan!

With a sharp rupture sound, Seo In-na, who had collided with the stone scepter of the dead man, was thrown away powerlessly.

Because Seo In-na quickly retreated, she couldn’t hit her neck, but it was a clean hit that didn’t miss.

However, Manghyun raised his eyebrows and expressed his doubts.

“hmm?”

It was because even though his blow had hit Seo In-na, he felt as if he had hit an iron plate rather than breaking bones.

And just like that feeling

“K, Coke… Uh…”

Seo In-na stepped back and wrapped one hand around her collarbone with a painful face.

At this, Manghyeon shed a cynic smile.

I thought it would end in one blow, but it was actually quite good.

His body, which has now swallowed the deaths of over a thousand dead, is so strong that it cannot be called human.

That’s why it wouldn’t be strange if the blow he created would crush not just the collarbone, but the entire human body.

Seo In-na had endured it.

“… As rumors say, your residual skills are good.”

Soon, Manghyeon found an amulet attached to her body.

There was a gold character engraved on it, which means metal among the five elements of Yin and Yang.

It means that it hardened the skin for an instant and prevented the attack of the blind man.

“That one. To realize Asura’s tradition to this point…”

Seo In-na said that, but the pain she could not hide was revealed on her face.

It was because he managed to defend against the previous blow, but couldn’t prevent his collarbone from breaking.

More destructive power than expected.

Seo In-na pondered over her next move.

If the stone had touched the neck rather than the collarbone, even if it had hardened the skin, that was the end.

Close combat is also extremely dangerous.

After deciding that, Seo In-na took out the talisman.

“However, it is not possible to reach a state with only residual talent.”

Manghyun launched an offensive again.

The reckless advance from the explosive leg power reaches Seo In-na.

In response, Seo In-na aimed her crossbow at the floor, not at the dead man.

Furbuck!

At once, three arrows pierced the floor at intervals.

The Chinese characters written on the amulet following the arrow are Su and To.

With dual attributes of water and soil, it soon turned the floor into a swamp-like mud.

“You’re crude!”

He jumped into the air as he faced the muddy ground.

But were you expecting this?

In front of his eyes, amulets were scattered.

fire and gold.

This time, red-hot spears aimed at him like arrows from all directions.

“hmm···!”

In response, Manghyeon hit the burning spear with his own sword.

Although some of them touched Manghyun’s body.

His black, swollen muscles could tear apart even hard steel, and he only boasted of its majesty.

Seo In-na’s attack went back to nothing.

However, Seo In-na’s counterattack did not stop.

This time, trees with steel studs grew on both sides.

When Manghyeon brushed it off, the ground he stepped on was still muddy.

Manghyun furrowed his eyebrows as he watched his legs being sucked down like a tidal flat.

“Would you like to turn off the time?”

He kicked his leg in the mud.

Then the entire floor, which had turned to mud, turned over, scattering mud into the air.

“What a stupid choice. What does that mean?”

“It means, of course.”

Seo In-na scattered the talisman again and said so.

While desperately using her witchcraft to slow down the attacks of the dead, countless thoughts were running through her head.

Manghyeon was destroying Seo In-na’s sorcery with just one gesture.

This also meant that Manghyeon was completely overpowering Seo In-na.

At the same time, it was also a clue to turn the situation around for Seo In-na.

“Too… strong.”

Seo In-na muttered that.

It wasn’t just a tribute to Manghyun’s power.

Rather, it is closer to suspicion.

As she said, the power manifested by Manghyun was unusually strong compared to the Asura she knew.

Even if it is Asura, the king of demons who becomes stronger by eating death.

It is beyond impossible and strange to be able to break someone else’s sorcery with only force, regardless of compatibility, and not even get scratched when hit.

Seo In-na, who got a hint from that question, finally arrived at the answer shortly after.

“···I see. I got it now.”

Manghyun quietly glared at the smile that crossed Seo Inna’s lips.

“You are not an Asura of Buddhahood.”

“Huh…?”

“Using the tradition of Buddhism, it was to reproduce the Asura of Indian mythology. yes?”

In Indian mythology, Asura is the main evil deity.

Therefore, the hierarchy as a god is higher than that of Buddhist asuras, and the powers granted to them are much stronger.

Of course, as powerful as it is, reproducing the tradition is much more difficult.

If, based on the tradition of Asura in Buddhism, twist it with time and effort, and make up for the lack of it with a thousand deaths.

Reproducing it was by no means impossible.

At this, Manghyun laughed heartily.

“Ha ha ha! I think it’s pretty good too. It was a hidden game in its own way, but I didn’t expect to find out this at once. Also, you are too dangerous. Eliminating it was the correct answer.”

“danger?”

“The thing more terrifying than the originally brave generals is the cunning schemer.”

Manghyeon flew to Seo In-na.

Flames and metal attacked him from all sides, but it was no longer an obstacle to Manghyeon.

It’s just a trick that hides Seo In-na’s appearance for a very short time.

But right after he broke through them, Inna Seo standing in front of him,

was smiling at him.

What she held in her hand was a paper sword connected to several amulets.

More than 10 amulets were forming the shape of a sword as if it were attached to a transparent sword.

And the letters written on the amulet are Hwa and Su.

It is a dual attribute of fire and water.

Originally, they were properties that were in conflict with each other, never used together.

So, even now, they repel each other and create steam.

The balance of spiritual power, which seemed to collapse at any moment, was unstable.

However, this was Asura’s only weakness that Seo In-na found.

“I should have noticed sooner since I saw no wounds.”

Seo In-na’s talisman sword, which twisted her body to avoid Seokjang, touches Mang-hyeon.

At best, it can only be seen as a smoldering piece of paper.

Tuduk-

His arm, which was unblemished by all kinds of attacks, was bizarrely lightly cut.

Manghyeon’s arm holding the stone scepter fell to the ground.

Black blood flowed from his arm.

“Asura tree.”

At the words of Seo In-na that followed, Mang-hyeon looked at her with eyes that could not hide his astonishment.

“An asura in Indian mythology that can only be cut with a weapon that is neither made of stone, wood, or iron, and is neither wet nor dry. In the nuclear power plant, I was killed by a sword made of foam, but… such a weapon can be realized with the power of the Five Elements.”

With a crackling sound, the amulets that made up the sword lost their power and fell to the floor.

However, this is only due to the meeting of opposite attributes.

Seo In-na could create a sword like this at any time.

At this, Manghyun let out a laugh as if it was absurd.

Asura appears as a major villain in vast Indian mythology.

Also, Asura is not an individual, but a race.

So, there are countless legends related to him, and the number of powers and powers under the name of Asura exceeds one hundred.

But among them, Seo In-na picked out only one correct answer in just a few seconds.

“That knowledge, that judgment. Wonderful. Until now, I thought it was just a stumbling block, but I never thought it would make me feel so bad that I wasn’t an ally.”

“What is this? Rather than that, now I can fight properly.”

Seo In-na took out the amulet and said.

However, Manghyeon shook his head in front of him.

“no. That’s not okay.”

With those words, the black blood leaking from his severed arm slowly stopped.

“Since we’ve come this far, even the small monk will have to show us one last move.”

Then his arm grew back.

With a thump, a beast’s foot sprouted from where his arm had been.

“what···?”

Seo In-na’s eyebrows furrowed at the unexpected sight.

It was a heterogeneous phenomenon that did not fit into any tradition.

So, Seo In-na observed Mang-hyeon’s body and soon found a red bead embedded in the monk’s robe that had been ripped off.

“Fox beads…!”

It was the fox marble that the fire fox had.

Simultaneously with Seo In-na’s muttering, a full-fledged change occurred in Mang-hyeon’s body.

Another fox’s head sprouted from the side of his head.

And the body grew bigger as if it was swelling up, and its size was increased.

In response, Seo In-na immediately fired her crossbow, but the flames that suddenly rose up blocked it.

“It’s no use. Even your knowledge is useless in front of this. This is something new that has never been done before.”

Before anyone knew it, Manghyeon had become a two-headed monster, half a human and half a fire fox.

At this, Seo In-na hardened her expression.

It was as if a demon and a monster were fused.

However, even if it was a demon, it was impossible to merge with a monster.

“It is over now. I will send them all at once.”

Flames began to gather over the monster’s head.

Looking at the heat that filled Daeungjeon in an instant, Seo In-na noticed Mang-hyeon’s ulterior motive.

He explodes that flame.

It was intended to bury all enemies, including Seo In-na, under the ground.

Seo In-na’s face turned to contemplation.

Seo In-na’s power alone could not suppress Mang-hyeon, where the fire fox and Asura’s tradition coexisted.

“how should···!”

Seo In-na desperately shook her head.

But this time, there was no answer.

On the contrary, her clear reasoning only proved the impossibility of preventing the explosion.

That moment when only the word despair came to her mind.

Dreuk!

Someone opened the door of the Daeungjeon Hall and came in.

that,

“What is that again?”

It was Inspector Kang Jin-woo with his whole body wet and a dissatisfied look.

* * *

“Damn it…”

I muttered that after finally dropping Iso-onna’s head.

In many ways, it was an unpleasant monster.

Don’t you use your hair like a rope?

Doesn’t the hair stick out like a needle, inject poison, and try to suck blood?

When you cut off all the hair and cut off the tail of the snake that was bothering you, doesn’t it spew venom in all directions?

And finally, when he cut off Goi’s head, his body turned into water and even caused splashes of water around him.

So I became like a wet mouse, and now I was feeling that discomfort all over my body.

“No, this is not the time.”

I looked around before shaking off my damp clothes.

It was to check the status of the team members dealing with the other two monsters.

Fortunately, neither of them seemed to be pushed too far.

They haven’t been able to defeat the monster yet.

So, should I help you there?

After thinking for a moment, I shook my head.

Originally, in a war, one commander had to be captured before hundreds of soldiers.

That’s why, rather than punishing the monster, who was just a summoned beast, he had to hit the devil who headed for Daeungjeon first.

So I ran straight to Daeungjeon.

“hmm···?”

But even before I went inside, I sensed an unusual aura.

Is this… heat?

Thanks to the skill, I didn’t get any damage, but I could feel the intense heat from the inside of the Daeungjeon.

So, as soon as I spurred through the door, the first thing I saw was a huge ball of flame that reached the roof of the tall Daeungjeon Hall.

And beneath it is a frowning Seo In-na and a monster.

“What is that again?”

I said looking at the ugly monster.

A monster with a human head and a fox head.

That monster… is it really a vision?

It just didn’t look like that.

The level indicator of the obscurity was still visible to my eyes.

But since when did he have such a chimera appearance?

After grasping the situation for a while, Seo In-na shouted.

“Inspector Kang! Dangerous!”

She pointed to the large flames that Manghyun was creating above her head.

It was a ball of fire with intense heat condensed.

The flames were still accumulating there, but it was all created by the blind man.

So… is that Mine thinking of exploding it?

I let out a laugh inwardly.

The power of flame here?

It was something I never expected, and I am very grateful for.

“Then go well.”

Manghyun snapped his fingers as he said that.

but.

Of course, the flames did not explode with it.

The attribute of Suzaku that controls all flames within sight, and the creed governing flames.

Because of that effect, the huge flame he created had lost control to me the moment it caught my eye.

“hmm···?”

Manghyun expressed his doubts.

But I had no intention of giving him time.

So right away I gave the light attribute to the flame he created.

The red-hot flame instantly turns into a white torch.

“Why is this-”

The moment he felt strange.

The huge torch exploded as it was.

A white light colored his vision for an instant.

An intense flame that shakes the entire temple as well as Daeungjeon Hall comes out and swallows the surroundings.

However, what the torch burns is neither human nor building, but only strangeness.

“aaagh!”

In addition, while drying my clothes.

Someone’s scream was heard in the pure white field of vision.

and after a while

In the Daeungjeon Hall, where the explosion of the torch has subsided, me and I have become soft again,

“What… what is it?”

There was only Seo In-na who did not understand this situation.

The monster called Manghyeon who was with him disappeared without even leaving ashes.

That was natural.

Even if he had resistance to fire, the holy fire is a flame that burns horses.

Even if it was a water ghost, it was the same reason that diving into holy water would kill you.

“Are you all right?”

“Are you okay?”

And the members of the team outside Daeungjeon revealed themselves.

It was thanks to the fact that even the monster they were dealing with disappeared after being caught up in the torch’s explosion.

At the same time,

Tring!

The quest window lit up brightly with the sound of a cheerful level up.

Finally, it meant that another case was complete.
