Episode 262 Demons of Domination (4)
“Is it coming already?”
Creon grinned when he sensed that an intruder had entered his castle.
‘Pathetic things.’
Since they had shown their abilities, I expected them to co in after being thoroughly prepared, but the humans attacked right away without any delay. It was to the point where I felt like I didn’t have any brains.
“They are a foolish race, then and now.”
Creon smiled coolly and headed to the corner where Baek Eun-kyung and Han Yu-ra were.
“There are humans who entered the castle to save you.”
“what?”
“You ca in here?”
Baek Eun-kyung opened her mouth wide, and Han Yu-ra jumped up in surprise.
“I’ll show you for myself.”
Creon snapped his fingers. A huge plate made of darkness rose into the air.
Cheeeeeek!
A noise rang out that stung my ears.
Light spread across the black plate, and a video of three n and one woman running down a hallway shrouded in black fog began to appear.
“ah!”
Yura Han looked at the face of the man standing in front and swallowed dry saliva.
‘Oh you’re here!’
A shiver ran down my spine. This is Baek Woo-jin. Baek Woo-jin ca here to save them.
[miss! The youngest master has arrived!]
Han Yu-ra gave a warning ssage to Baek Eun-kyung and pointed to the screen.
“Baek… Woojin?”
Baek Eun-kyung followed Han Yu-ra’s fingers and looked at the screen. I could see Baek Woo-jin cutting down the hell hound.
“No…”
Baek Eun-kyung shook her head vigorously.
“yes?”
“Even Woojin said no.”
“Ha, but the youngest master’s current military power is….”
“For him, military force is not important!”
Eun-kyung Baek glared at Creon, who leisurely crossed his arms.
‘Even Woojin is having a hard ti with that guy.’
He has known for a long ti that Baek Woo-jin has surpassed him, but he cannot deal with Creon. Its dominance was not sothing that could be overco through force alone.
Moreover, it is no exaggeration to say that this castle is Creon’s living room, so his abilities beco even stronger. It’s almost impossible to beat him here.
“It was Baek Woo-jin, so that person was Baek Woo-jin.”
Creon grinned as he looked into Baek Eun-kyung’s eyes.
“What about Woojin….”
“He is the guy who ruined my plans both in Korea and Japan, so I can’t help but notice.”
Two plans were ruined because of Baek Woo-jin. If it weren’t for that person, he would have caused enormous damage to Korea and Japan and gained a lot of power.
However, thanks to Baek Woo-jin’s ssing up, we were able to discover Bran Castle, so in so ways, it was actually a blessing in disguise.
“Wow…”
Han Yu-ra exclaid when she saw Baek Woo-jin catch ten hellhounds. It was perfect swordsmanship that didn’t feel like anything unnecessary.
“It’s real from now on.”
Creon’s expression did not change even after seeing ten hellhounds die at once.
Ugh!
A magical magic circle was created in front of Baek Woo-jin, and a huge three-headed dog appeared.
“That one!”
“Cerberus!”
As soon as Baek Eun-kyung and Han Yura saw the three-headed dog, they recognized its identity. It was Cerberus, the watchdog of hell.
Quaaa!
When Cerberus spewed the flas of the demon world at Baek Woo-jin, Creon’s smile deepened and Baek Eun-kyung and Han Yu-ra’s expressions hardened.
But their expressions reversed before three seconds had passed.
When the scene where Baek Woo-jin cuts through the flas of Cerberus and cuts off three heads at once, a crack appeared on Creon’s face and the corners of Han Yu-ra’s mouth rose.
“What is this…”
Creon widened his eyes. It was unbelievable that in this castle full of demonic energy, he could move so lightly and withstand the flas of the demon world, which had beco more than twice as strong, with his bare body.
“Tsk…”
Creon clicked his tongue slightly. It seed like Baek Woo-jin had a special item that could disperse magical energy.
“also!”
Han Yu-ra’s clenched fists shook. I never imagined that it would be so easy to catch Cerberus, the watchdog of hell, in a castle full of demonic energy. That person was real.
“It’s too early to like it.”
Creon snapped his fingers again and grabbed the second floor screen. The difficulty of this castle increases significantly every ti you climb a floor, and the demon energy becos more intense. Even if he is Baek Woo-jin, he won’t be able to pass the second floor easily.
“Heliton!”
Han Yura groaned when she saw the burning monsters that appeared on the screen. The monster on the second floor was Heliton, a humanoid monster from hell.
Heliton was a difficult monster to deal with because it was resistant to auras and had extrely sensitive senses.
But there was no need for her to worry.
The Hellions could neither block nor avoid Baek Woo-jin’s sword. It was all split in half.
Hell Kite, the boss of the second floor, also lted into black ash due to Baek Woo-jin’s strength.
“Mmm!”
“it’s okay!”
A faint light returned to Baek Eun-kyung’s eyes, and Han Yu-ra cheered.
“Wow!”
Hope began to shine on the faces of children who had been overco with fear.
“….”
Creon uncrossed his arms and frowned. Baek Woo-jin’s energy was not that great. However, the monsters died too easily due to the energy. It was a difficult situation to understand.
“What the hell…”
I turned my head back. I could see the light of hope rising on the faces of the dying children Yura Han and Eunkyung Baek.
“Are you sure you have hope?”
“what?”
“The place they are at is only the second floor. There are still eight floors left, and I am on the top floor.”
Creon laughed bitterly and laughed at the humans who saw hope. A ferocious demonic energy rose from his entire body.
“Ugh!”
“Ugh…”
Baek Eun-kyung and Han Yu-ra trembled and the children sat down, gasping for breath.
“No matter who cos or what you do, you will no longer be able to survive in this city.”
As if agreeing with his words, the female prosecutor standing in front of Baek Eun-kyung had a fierce look in her eyes.
**
-It’s easy.
‘It feels similar to when I broke through the Lion’s Castle before.’
Baek Woo-jin nodded as he climbed the stairs to the third floor.
-Are you comparing it to that?
The difficulty level of Spiral Castle is incomparably higher than Lion’s Castle, but Baek Woo-jin has beco stronger than that.
Unless it was a decent boss monster or a vicious trap, there was nothing that could stop him.
-But why are you controlling the force?
‘I’m trying to deceive you just in case you don’t know.’
-Fool ?
‘Creon may not be able to feel my energy properly because he is in the rebuttal position. There is no need to show all your abilities.’
-You’re becoming more and more timid.
Darkness stuck out its tongue. Although it seed like he had a great performance, Baek Woo-jin was fighting leisurely and not using his abilities properly.
However, even though they only showed moderate strength, Chae Jung-hyeon and Chae Jin Chae-jin looked at Baek Woo-jin with half-soulful eyes.
While climbing to the third floor, all the two people did was follow Baek Woo-jin’s back.
“Fla desert?”
Baek Woo-jin frowned when he saw the environnt on the third floor. It was a burning desert terrain, and ants the size of large cars were crawling on the sand.
-They are called hellfire ants. It has high auror resistance and fire resistance, and its outer shell is harder than iron armor, but it is quick and difficult to cut.
‘That’s other people’s stories.’
Baek Woo-jin laughed and stepped on the burning sand. The hellfire ants that were wandering near the entrance ca running like bison.
Sigh!
Baek Woo-jin covered the Amin-geom with a thin blade and drew it horizontally. A straight line appeared in the air and three hellfire ants stopped at the sa ti.
“Squeak….”
“Squeak!”
The hellfire ants split in half, spitting out green blood. The burning sand automatically rose and buried the hellfire ant’s body.
‘I need to be careful down here too, right?’
-okay. It will pop out of the sand too. Call those people to your side.
‘I guess I should ask that while you’re calling.’
-that?
‘The story of Baek Eun-kyung and Creon.’
-Oh, right! I was so curious that my back started itching!
“Everyone co next to !”
Baek Woo-jin swallowed the words, ‘I don’t even have a back.’ and called Chae Jung-hyun and Chae Jin-jin to his side.
“I see you need my help now. good. From now on, I will be on the floor…”
“That’s not it, there’s sothing I want to ask.”
“Is that so? “What do you want to ask…”
“What did the demon nad Creon do to Baek Eun-kyung?”
The question was not simply asked out of curiosity. Since there are two of them up here, it was right to know.
“I’m not the type to talk about other people’s stories, but the situation is
what it is…” Chae Joong-hyeon sighed as if there was nothing he could do.
“Actually, I arrived there later, so it may not be accurate. “It contains what I briefly heard from Eun-kyung and my guesses.”
“It doesn’t matter.”
Baek Woo-jin nodded as he cut the hellfire ant that rose from the ground in half.
“When I first t Eunkyung, she was a much colder child than she is now. “More than anyone else in your family.”
-Is it still cold?
‘Just stay still.’
“The reason she did that was to get attention from your cold-hearted father. I tried to copy everything just to get one more look from him. Even his cold personality.”
“okay.”
Not only Baek Eun-kyung, but also Baek Ho-jung and Baek Myung-hoon lived that way, so it was not particularly strange.
“When Eun-kyung beca a cold-hearted child, the family guard was decided. “Park So-min was a smiling and friendly prosecutor.”
“Sweet?”
“okay. Somin was a friend who never lost her laughter and affection even though she was in the Baek family.”
Chae Joong-hyun drew a bright smile while recalling Park So-min’s smile.
“Somin approached Eunkyung as a person, not as an escort. “Eun-kyung pushed So-min away and treated her coldly, but her frozen heart began to open little by little due to So-min’s laughter and kindness.”
‘I guess it’s natural.’ It was natural that Baek Eun-kyung lted as soone who gave her proper affection appeared in a family as disgusting as the Baek family.
“Eun-kyung was a child who longed for affection, so the two quickly beca close. Somin beca an older sister, friend, and parent to Eunkyung. Thanks to this, Eunkyung regained her original warm personality.”
“Hmm….”
“The incident happened when Baek Cheon-hwa saw that Eun-kyung’s personality was changing and tried to intervene.”
Chae Joong-hyun’s voice, which had previously sounded affectionate, suddenly changed.
“Eun-kyung ca out after conquering a level 3 dungeon with So-min. “We attacked together with other people, so about 30 people ca out at once.”
“….”
Baek Woo-jin seed to know what was going to be said even though he didn’t hear the story behind it.
“All the talented people who ca out of the dungeon were speechless. “The humans around the dungeon committed suicide laughing, and a demon with three spiral horns was floating above them.”
“Creon….”
“That’s right. Creon used his power of domination to cause powerful people to commit suicide. After killing a few more talented people as an example, he said sothing. “I will only spare one person here, so kill each other.”
“Was it the power of domination?”
“No, I didn’t use that power. I just watched. Seeing humans killing each other…”
-You damn bastard!
“Damn you…”
Baek Woo-jin gritted his teeth. He was so disgusting that it made nauseous.
“Somin realized that he could not defeat Creon and swung his sword.”
“Then…”
“Okay. That kid killed the people there to save Eun-kyung. “Not only did Eun-kyung give affection to So-min, but So-min also thought of Eun-kyung as a daughter, a younger sibling, and a friend.”
-….
“….”
Anger blood from Baek Woo-jin’s body. The sword strike filled with such anger resonated not only with the hellfire ants but also with the space itself. With a swing of the sword, a mountain of sand exploded.
“So-min killed the last remaining capable person and tried to commit suicide to save Eun-kyung. “When that kid aid at his own heart…”
Chae Joong-hyeon continued, his lips quivering.
“Creon used his power of domination to trap Somin in his space. That was when I and the other talented people arrived. “It laughed at us and disappeared.”
“The prosecutor nad Park So-min….”
“Creon took her away. In fact, the demon nad Creon is a high-risk person. However, because his abilities were so vicious, we did not inform the outside world.”
Chae Joong-hyeon trembled as if he was tired of thinking about it again.
“That kind of thing…”
Chae Jin Chae also had tears in her eyes as her hands were shaking because it was her first ti hearing this story. Moon Joo-young could not open his mouth and only bit his lip.
“After that incident, as you know, Eunkyung closed her heart and only looked for demons. “To find and kill Creon.”
“…Thank you for telling .”
Baek Woo-jin bit his molars gently. To be honest, I thought that no matter what story Baek Eun-kyung had, I couldn’t understand her.
But after hearing Chae Jung-hyeon’s story, my heart was moved. I wanted to save her and cut off Creon’s head.
-Oh, I’m so angry…
For the first ti in a long ti, anger flowed from the mouth of darkness.
-Hey, send that devil bastard to . I’m going to tear you limb from limb!
‘no.’
Baek Woo-jin shook his head.
‘I co first. ‘I’m the first to worry.’
**
“Hmm….”
Baek Woo-jin broke through the 3rd, 4th, and 5th floors and went up to the 6th floor.
-The 6th floor is different. There are no monsters.
‘It’s a place stained with terrible demonic energy.’
The presence of monsters was not felt on the 6th floor. All I could see was darkness, like a windowless secret room.
“Ah…”
Chae-Jin Chae broke into a cold sweat when she saw the darkness of the 6th floor.
“The magic energy here is much darker than other layers. “It seems like I’ve just drawn the demon energy from the demon world!”
“How do we solve that?”
“We must break the barrier and disperse the accumulated demonic energy. However, the demon energy here is so strong that even I can’t stand it properly. “Even pimaju is useless.”
Chae Jin Chae looked into the darkness with anxious eyes. It was a level of magical power I had never imagined, so just seeing it took my breath away.
“Hmm…”
Baek Woo-jin quenched his appetite while looking at the 6th floor from the entrance.
‘The magic energy is definitely strong.’
-Up until now, it tasted like spicy soup, but the seasoning here is quite spicy.
‘Where did you learn that expression?’
-Of course it’s a drama. Everything in this world is in drama.
‘That’s amazing.’
Baek Woo-jin smiled and approached the entrance to the 6th floor.
“uh? Oh, prosecutor! “I’m not ready yet…”
“It’s okay. “I’ll break it through, so co in when your magical energy is released.”
After shaking my hand, I stepped onto the 6th floor. At that mont, my vision beca pitch black.
All senses of sight, hearing, sll, and touch were blocked. I felt like I was trapped in a small wooden box.
This was only because it was Baek Woo-jin. If it had been anyone else, he would have collapsed and died the mont he stepped onto the 6th floor.
‘This is what it felt like.’
-It’s stuffy! Destroy it quickly!
‘okay. ‘I’ve tasted it, so I’ll wake up.’
Baek Woo-jin slowly raised Lasadum’s aura, releasing the black brilliance and the king’s spirit that had been locked away.
Quaaaaa!
An auror with a darker color than the demon energy of hell gave off a magnificent light and chewed and swallowed the demon energy that ca from the demon world.
Coo coo coo coo!
The king’s blooming spirit followed, erasing the remaining demonic energy and exposing Creon’s barrier, which had raised the demonic energy of the demonic world.
Coo!
Baek Woo-jin used a barrier field and rolled on the ground. The impact felt as if the entire castle was being twisted, and the floor split apart like a spider web.
Quaaaaa!
The barrier was completely torn, demon energy was scattered through the cracks in the cracked ground, and the empty 6th floor was revealed.
“It was originally like this.”
Baek Woo-jin looked around the 6th floor and smiled. It was a very narrow circular space compared to the other floors, and the stairs leading to the 7th floor were visible right in front of .
“It’s done. Let’s go.”
Baek Woo-jin turned around and gestured.
“Now you really….”
“Huh! How on earth did you do it? This doesn’t make sense…”
Chae Joong-hyun wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, and Chae Jin-jin forgot her sha and ran to Baek Woo-jin, grabbing his sleeve and shaking him.
“Oh wow.”
Moon Ju-young was also impressed and just trembled without saying a word.
“I’ll tell you later. “Let’s go up first.”
Baek Woo-jin smiled slightly and took the stairs to the 7th floor first.
-What else is there on the 7th floor? Is the scale getting bigger?
‘There must be sothing more dangerous.’
I stood at the entrance to the 7th floor with a few predictions.
“uh?”
Baek Woo-jin raised his eyes. The 7th floor was a completely different place than he expected.
