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…

The woman, who had been looking me up and down, raised her left eyebrow slightly toward her forehead. "You look more ferocious than I heard." At the woman's frank impression, I responded with an insulting remark without realizing it. "You're not exactly a likable face either, ma'am." As if surprised by my counterattack, the woman raised her right eyebrow as well. Having silenced her, I got straight to the point. "Why did you want to see me?" The woman, who had been glaring at me, suddenly…

It was the hour of the dog, a time when the tavern should have been bustling with evening customers, but in the spacious tavern that could accommodate over a hundred people, there was only our party. It was me, the Eccentric Immortal, and the Mad Guest. The reason the tavern was so empty was primarily because of me. A quarter of an hour ago, when the old men and I entered the tavern, the complexions of some of those who had been glancing at me because of my size turned pale. It was proof that they had…

We, who had been engaged in a back-and-forth battle, caught our breath at the same time. At that moment, the Eccentric Immortal realized. That I was about to throw a decisive move. Although I had failed to take his breath away, I went ahead with what I had decided. My iron staff, which contained the maximum of my primal energy, emitted lightning. To the Eccentric Immortal, it would look similar to the lightning he had received so far, but it was completely different. It was because it was the new…

We got on the carriage. Jin Cheong-un, who had used the workers of the Daeheung Inn to load the coffin containing Shin Pil-ju's body onto the back of the carriage, sat in the driver's seat. The Mad Guest was puzzled when he, who had an inconvenient hand, said he would drive the carriage. However, after a while, he looked convinced after confirming his skillful handling. In fact, the Mad Guest had no room to pay attention to Jin Cheong-un. After hearing the result of the duel with the Sword Emperor's…
