The swordsman with the knife-like ears couldn't answer my question. Instead, one of the martial artists of the Jinmu Academy let out my moniker like a groan. "Demonic Hero." Although it wasn't a loud voice, a commotion immediately arose in the crowd. The old man and the boy who had been prostrated also raised their heads and looked back. But after seeing me, they became like turtles again. However, a sense of anticipation twinkled like a star in the boy's eyes. The swordsman with the knife-like…-

The Eccentric Immortal panted like a dog that had run to the edge of the village to escape the hands that were trying to catch it on a hot summer day. Although I didn't feel sorry, I ignored his pain and concentrated on my recovery. It would take another two watches to be in a state where I could use my lightness skill without any problems. At least, unlike ordinary people who took several months for a fracture to heal completely, my bones would set and heal in half a day. It was not because I was…

"What are you doing here, you brat?" I felt my strength drain away. I, who had almost fallen into a state of qi deviation, used the snot-sized primal energy I had barely gathered to move my tongue. "What's the matter, old man?" The Eccentric Immortal got angry at my retort. "I asked you first, you brat. What the hell is this? Is there dragon shit buried in there? Get up quickly, won't you?" Even though I didn't move a muscle, I felt the Eccentric Immortal, who had been panting, sit down…

There are several ways to shake off a pursuit. You can run faster than the pursuer, lure them into your own territory and make them turn back on their own, or you can intimidate the pursuer. The one I chose was the third. I had to make the demonic leaders realize that they could die a violent death if they chased me. To do that, I needed to inflict a real threat, not just a threat. To carry it out, I also had to take a risk. It was because I had to allow the pursuers to get close. The demonic…

Demonic energy soaring to the heavens! I thought that phrase was just a cliché. But it wasn't. It was a phrase that referred to an actual phenomenon. From hundreds of paces in front of me, a domineering energy was soaring into the sky like a waterspout. But I wasn't surprised by the immensity or clarity of the demonic energy that was reaching me. I was surprised because that energy was so familiar. It was the energy of those who had surrounded me in my childhood. It was also the energy that our…

I quickly assessed the situation, gauging the martial prowess of the newly appeared figures. It was obvious who the old man in the black robe was. Although he had hidden his gaunt frame in a loose robe, he could not hide his skull-like face. It was an appearance that suited the moniker 'Skull' all too well. The middle-aged man in white, who had arrived almost at the same time as the Skull-Faced Lecher, was of unknown identity. His clothes were disheveled, as if he had come out in a hurry. However,…

It was a happy time. Except for the time I spent in meditation, I spent the whole day sparring with the Mad Guest in the swamp. We didn't care about day or night, and after sparring, we would always review the important points with him. Although it was a matter of no benefit to him, the Mad Guest helped me with my training without showing any sign of annoyance. He was the best training partner. I also occasionally exchanged blows with the Eccentric Immortal. Unlike with the Mad Guest, where I focused…

Jin So-wol's pink lips held the bitter smile I liked. "Even though your meeting with Lady Buyong ended early, there must have been something you had to think about for you to come back so much later, right?" Even in my troubled state, I was impressed. Jin So-wol was looking right through me. It was almost impossible to deceive her. It wasn't because she had the talent to remember everything, but because she was a person with an extraordinary brain. In fact, what had fascinated me was not her beauty,…

I didn't answer Jin So-wol's question directly and went around it. "My father, who had heard my mother's story after she came to her senses, ah, that's right! There was no problem with the two of them communicating. My mother had long since lost the language of the Paura tribe. Since the people who managed her spoke the language of the Central Plains, my mother had naturally learned it as well. Anyway, after hearing my mother's story, my father was shocked and fell into a conflict. He was conflicted…

"It's sudden, but I want to finish telling you about my parents, which I vaguely glossed over last time. No, I've already explained my father's history in detail before, so today I want to tell you my mother's story. I hope you'll bear with me even if it's a little long. My mother was from a southern tribe. To be more precise, she was from the 'Paura tribe,' but that's not very important. However, it would be good to know that the jungle area where the Paura tribe resides is included in the region…
