Bang!
The Alpha Shivara, whose head was blown away by Chun Yeowun’s sword, fell.
The body was so huge that it made the entire place shake.
‘… is he really human?’
Gan-ong, who pretended to fight moderately in order to preserve as much power as possible, kept his eyes on the Alpha type.
An A-cla.s.s Alpha Shivara, even a Superior Master could never deal with it alone.
However, he just saw such a monster fall with his own eyes.
‘Because it felt so different…’
Now he understood how the 1st and 2nd teams were wiped out.
Gan-ong remembered what he was told earlier.
[I leave it to your judgement. Decide whether to subdue the target and get it done. Or use the Murim a.s.sociation and fight against the A-cla.s.s Alpha.]
‘No way.’
The damage the Murim warriors took was just 20%. The Alpha was defeated so quickly that no one could even approach it, let alone seize it.
The difference in skills was too great.
Shhhh!
Gan-ong put the goggles down to his chest.
They had the ability to record.
‘Let’s make collecting information about him the top priority.’
He was told to a.n.a.lyze the target as much as possible.
Rather than ignorantly fighting him, he felt that collecting information would be the right thing to do.
‘Ah! He is going to take the A-cla.s.s core?’
He saw Chun Yeowun move to the back of the fallen Alpha.
Chun Yeowun, who sensed where the core was radiating, stood on the Alpha’s back and then held out his hand.
The Alpha Shivara’s body shook.
However, nothing else happened.
Chun yeowun frowned.
‘Indeed, the structure of the body is completely different from humans.’
The monster seemed to have some kind of resistance.
‘Then.’
Chun Yeowun thrust the invisible sword into the back.
Puck! Shhh!
After drawing a circle, Chun Yeowun raised the energy.
And.
Kukuku!
A red core the size of a human body revealed itself from within the Shivara’s body.
Although the outer sh.e.l.l of the core, which was still connected to the Gate, was attached, the energy coming from the core wasn’t normal.
Chun Yeowun held it and raised the energy.
Jjkkk!
Cracks began to appear.
As if breaking gla.s.s, the outer part cracked and.
Bang!
A strong energy wave spread as it shattered.
The situation immediately changed.
“Kwaaak!”
“Kakaka! Kakakak!”
The other Shivaras who were trying to enter the city, howled and turned back trying to return.
“Woah!”
“They are heading back!”
The warriors and Gate Keepers shouted at once.
It was truly a strange phenomenon.
Each time the core shattered and the wave =spread, the ent.i.ties would desperately try to run back.
“Stop them!”
“Don’t step back! They shouldn’t get into the city!”
Despite them retreating, the warriors and Gate Keepers didn’t take their eyes off them.
Because sometimes, the ent.i.ties would run around in confusion.
Fortunately, the Shivaras were more intellectual than other ent.i.ties, so they did their best to run back.
Goo!
The energy emanating from the core was revealed, the A-cla.s.s core.
‘This is nice.’
Chun Yeowun was fascinated.
The energy was incomparable to the C-cla.s.s core’s.
‘If it is at this level, the energy alone is as pure as that of the spirit beasts’ cores.’
Of course, it was difficult to compare.
The Spirit beasts had mysterious powers and excellent regeneration ability.
However, for a simple and pure energy, this didn’t seem bad.
“Ahhh!”
“A-cla.s.s core.”
Admiration flowed out from the mouths of all the warriors and Gate Keepers.
The A-cla.s.s core that everyone wanted.
Greed could be seen in their eyes.
‘This is bad. An A-cla.s.s core in the hands of someone I am seeing for the first time.’
Hw.a.n.g Bo-yun couldn’t hide his regret.
For the first time in 10 years, an A-cla.s.s appeared in Jinan city.
And if consumed, one would achieve a dramatic increase in their internal energy.
‘It’s said that one of the five Great Warriors took an A-cla.s.s core and then rose to the status of Supreme Master level.’
Because of that rumor, every warrior became obsessed with the core.
But they weren’t stupid.
Who would go against Chun Yeowun after witnessing his strength?
‘Who the h.e.l.l is he?’
Unless they were hallucinating, they had just witnessed an invisible sword.
There were no warriors registered in the modern Murim at the level of Divine Master level.
‘No. he looks so young though!’
‘Like he is in his early twenties…’
When they looked at Chun Yeowun, he seemed to be in his early twenties.
Age wasn’t everything, but when trained for long, skills would grow.
When everyone was in doubt, Jegal Bo-hyun stepped ahead.
Tak!
He was limping due to the injury in his leg as he approached Chun Yeowun.
“I am Jegal Bo-hyun, the chairman of Jegal Cultural Foundation. Thanks to you, we were able to easily subdue the A-cla.s.s hazard ent.i.ty quickly. I wanted to thank you for it.”
Tak!
Following their chairman, all the members of the Jegal company immediately bowed.
It was a polite show of grat.i.tude, and then Zegal Bo-hyun went straight to the point.
“But, there is something I would like to ask you.”
“What do you want to ask?”
Chun Yeowun asked in a cold voice.
Jegal Bo-hyun frowned.
He thought the other person would bow and show some courtesy when he revealed his ident.i.ty, but this was completely the opposite.
“I have been in the Murim a.s.sociation for over 20 years, but I have never heard of a great warrior like you. May I know who you are?”
There were two things he was curious about.
So he decided to ask the most natural question.
‘Even Baek Ye who runs an affiliate of Blade Six didn’t seem to know.’
If there was such a talented person, people were bound to know.
Chun Yeowun answered.
“You don’t need to know my name.”
“W-what?”
A truly arrogant answer.
He never imagined that he would be given such a disrespectful answer, he, an executive of the Murim a.s.sociation.
In a slightly angry voice, he said.
“I acknowledge your power, but don’t you think you are too arrogant?”
The present clan leaders nodded their heads.
Jegal Bo-hyun deserved respect as he was a descendant of one of the five great clans of Forces of Justice.
A middle-aged man standing behind Jegal Bo-hyun took the lead.
Tak!
“I am Jegal Bang-hyun.”
He was the director of the company.
He came out as he realized that the chairman and the head of the clan was being insulted.
“This man is the chairman of the Jegal Cultural Foundation. We don’t want to be hostile, but if you are a warrior, then please follow the rules.”
“Yes…”
Chun Yeowun’s eyes narrowed.
Although the Sky Demon order didn’t care, Murim was a place where people had pride in themselves.
However, despite seeing the greatness of other people, they were seeking respect for their social position and status.
‘This is the current Murim?’
How did Murim turn like this? Did it change with time? This was completely different from the Murim that Chun Yeowun knew.
‘Hmm. This is good.’
Thought Baek Ye, who was watching it.
Even if he didn’t say it, he was afraid of Chun Yeowun, an unidentified warrior, who suddenly turned into a hero.
But thanks to Chun Yeowun"s arrogant response, Murim warriors would never consider him a nice guy.
‘If we can push the opinion of the people here against that man, then we can stop him from working in Jinan city.’
Baek Ye took advantage and intervened.
“Excuse me. I am the branch manager of the Murim a.s.sociation of Jinan City, Baek Ye. There is one thing I need to ask. If you were so strong, then you could have solved the problem without risking the warriors’ and the people’s lives.”
Whisper!
The warriors around began to whisper at those words.
Most people didn"t think about that because they were too focused on the A-cla.s.s core and Chun Yeowun.
Due to Baek Ye, people realized that no casualties would have been there if Chun Yeowun had acted sooner.
“Manager Baek is right.”
“If you acted immediately, none of them would have died.”
“Why were you late?”
Negative opinions spread.
Rather than thinking that he came and reduced the loss of lives, they were now blaming him.
Baek Ye was satisfied and tried to speak more.
“And…”
Hw.a.n.g Bo-yun intervened.
“Wait a minute. Manager Baek. It was thanks to this man’s help that a lot of casualties were avoided, aren’t you being too negative now?”
Not everyone shared the same opinion.
Although Hw.a.n.g Bo-yun didn’t forget about the A-cla.s.s core, he was really thankful that Chun Yeowun had taken down that hazard ent.i.ty.
‘President Hw.a.n.g doesn’t know when to speak and when no to. he doesn’t understand what would happen when an unregistered Murim warrior acts all mighty.’
Baek Ye looked at Hw.a.n.g Bo-yun and said.
“Of course, I don’t think that this young man didn’t do any good. But those who have the power are supposed to be responsible. If the man dealt with the Alpha from the beginning, the damage could have been reduced. However, president Hw.a.n.g and chairman Jegal suffered injuries as he waited.”
“What are you trying to say?”
Chak!
He pointed to Chun Yeowun and said,
“Isn’t it true that he waited for the warriors and Gate Keepers to move to obtain the core?”
Dissatisfaction rose in the eyes of warriors and Gate Keepers who were around.
‘Yes!’
Baek Ye’s face brightened.
He looked at Chun Yeowun.
Having pushed him into a corner, he reduced the chance of Chun Yeowun being used in Jinan city.
“You seem to be misunderstanding something.”
“Huh. It is too late to explain.”
When Chun Yeowun was about to speak, Baek Ye tried to stop him.
“If you don’t give a clear explanation, we won"t be able to believe…”
“You have a long tongue.”
“Wha?”
Grab!
“Uhmp!”
Chun Yeowun pulled out the tongue.
Baek Ye was shocked as he didn’t think Chun Yeowun would do it.
But then he suddenly swung his finger.
Slash!
“Ack!”
The pulled-out tongue was cut.
Baek Ye, whose tongue was cut, screamed in pain as it kept bleeding.
“Manager Baek!!!”
“What are you doing!”
Clang! Clang!
Startled by Chun Yeowun’s act, the warriors pulled out their weapons.
Chun Yeowun said.
“Did you think that I came here to save you?”
“What do you mean?”
Jegal Bo-hyun asked with a nervous face.
Chun Yeowun responded in a cold voice.
“You men also need to be cleaned up.”
