Chapter 441 – Chapter 441. Victoria Building (4)

He sincerely thought that what he was doing was for the cause.
At first, Mine was scary.
Appearance different from that of humans. Different magic power. Different emotions.
Ma-in is similar to a human, but she was a very different being.

They giggled and enjoyed killing people while playing with them.
Although he committed the crime, he felt no guilt.
That was the existence of Mine.

The reason she killed Mine in the first place was because of her murdered wife.
With a vengeance, I slowly and deliberately pursued them and dealt with the demons.

In the first few years, when I was only thinking about revenge, I killed Mine like crazy.
I went to all the places where there were many mines in the world.
In the process, he lacked strength and eventually turned his body into a demon.

It was fun.
It seemed that her dead wife smiled every time she killed a demon and spattered its blood.
But as time passed, the more I killed the demon, the more I realized.

No matter how much she kills Mine and enjoys the joy of her revenge, her beloved wife does not return.
His mind awoke only after being soaked in the blood of numerous demons.

‘Can I go back now?’

It’s been 10 years since I left everything and left.
There will be no place for me as a demon, and I will only receive cold eyes from humans.
I have magical powers different from humans, and I have different emotions.
A non-human monster.

The human named Sungmin Moon is already dead.
He is a shell.
It’s just a monster who begged for his life.

Then, let’s burn this life.
All the demons.
We must kill the demons who are still stepping on this land while still breathing.
For me. For my daughter I have to sacrifice for everyone.

He sincerely thought so, and killed and killed again.

People didn’t touch it on purpose.
Even while killing countless demons, he never had human blood on his hands.
His body became a demon, but he thought his mind was human.

But now I don’t have time for such consideration.
He is not human
Even one more. I moved to kill the demon faster.
He thought that the guys blocking his way were the same as the demons.
From a certain moment, Moon Seong-min did not care about those who interfered and killed the demons.

Killing demons is alcohol and drugs for him.
It was my reason for living and my driving force.

Back to the present.
Standing in front of him, Lee Ho-yeon captured his mana.
The magical power of Macheongung settled around Hoyeon Lee.

One. Two. Three.

Three arcs began to draw a magic circle above Lee Ho-yeon’s head, and he was ready to start a battle at any time.
Lee Ho-yeon looked at the demon in front of him and was dumbfounded. He tasted it.

Every time I see it, I get emaciated and my eyes go blank.
It was seen that his mind was gradually worn out.

To be honest, the father-in-law had no confidence in quality.
Moon Seong-min’s magical power seemed to be much stronger than before.
However, Lee Ho-yeon’s growth was on a different level.

Macheon Palace and Arc Conjuration.

Two magic aids in battle raised Hoyeon Lee’s level to the limit. Lee Ho-yeon’s condition is at its peak right now.
Lee Ho-yeon looked at Moon Seong-min’s face.
A criminal who touched civilians and hunters because he couldn’t kill the devil.

‘… Just in case, it doesn’t seem like a pandemic brainwashing, did you just go out of your mind?’

The human heart is strong, but surprisingly fragile.
Even he, who had strong mental strength who continued to take revenge for 10 years, couldn’t stand it and broke in the end.

Shocked by the loss of his beloved wife, Moon Seong-min tries to get rid of the existence of Ma-in.
Lee Ho-yeon does not know the relationship between Moon Seong-min and her wife. I don’t know what kind of love passed between them.
Therefore, the revenge cannot be evaluated.
However, she is unaware of her madness and cannot stand to cause trouble to others.
Surin noona isn’t enough, if you do this to me, I can’t stay still.

“Mr. Craftsman. Aren’t you ashamed to see her daughter? She said she was against killing Mine and killed all civilians and even Hunters. Now she is in a position where Surin noona can’t help her.”
“It doesn’t matter. I’ve already given up on honor for a long time. I can do even dirty and ugly things to kill a demon.”
“Because dirty and ugly things are not the problem… Tsk. If you do the same thing as a demon to kill a demon, then what kind of revenge is that?”

Lee Ho-yeon was feeling sad.
To Sungmin Moon and Surin Moon.
I felt sympathy for Munsu-rin, who was suffering from having a man who went crazy for her wife and her father like that.

If only demons were killed, there would be room for extenuating circumstances, but the moment a civilian was touched, it was over.
She’ll have to face the law and rot in prison for a long time.
She came to her senses and wanted to talk to Moon Soo-rin, but Moon Seong-min in front of her showed no signs of doing so.

“If you’re really Surin’s lover, I’m sorry. But it’s already too late.”

Cheak-

Black light burst out from Sungmin Moon’s waist.

“Ehh.”

Okay.
At first, I did not expect any persuasion.
What persuasion to my subject.

Lee Ho-yeon adjusted the magical power inside Macheon Palace and extinguished the sword steel fired by Moon Seong-min.
Moon Seong-min opened his eyes wide and was surprised, and at the same time, magic burst out from the arc.

Until recently, Lee Ho-yeon’s weakness was close combat.

However, Macheongung’s magical control was able to neutralize the enemy’s weak containment, and Ark’s multi-casting ability gave Lee Ho-yeon time to block the attack.
There is a saying that the best defense is an attack.

She felt like she was dealing with a few high-level mages while dealing with one enemy against Lee Ho-yeon.
It was the same with Sungmin Moon.

I tried to take advantage of the gap and attack, but checks came from everywhere.
Hot flames and sharp awls rising from the ground.
There was no need to distinguish what was real and what was fake.
Everything is valid.
It was a powerful magic enough to pierce a hole in the stomach with just one hit.

‘… It’s nonsense. This much of a difference?’

There is no time to attack.
The constant rushing magic made Moon Seong-min step backwards, and Lee Ho-yeon’s shield was already waiting for the fist that was forcibly dug into.

Even when we met in Hwadong Dungeon, I knew he was stronger, but he thought he would do well if he fought properly.
But at that time, Lee Ho-yeon was also not sincere.

‘It’s filthy fast.’

If it had been before the vacation started, Lee Ho-yeon might have been in danger.
At that time, there was no means to contain the rapidly approaching enemy, and there was no way to counterattack while blocking Sung-min Moon’s flowing attacks.

But now it is different.

‘I think I can do it with the real Im Sol now.’

The combination of Macheon Palace and Ark was superior beyond imagination.
I’m sorry to say this, but the power Seong-Min Moon cultivated by killing demons throughout his life was pitiful compared to Ho-Yeon Lee.

‘… Is there any way?’

Moon Seong-min stopped attacking and widened his distance.
As Lee Ho-yeon realized the difference, so did Moon Seong-min.
As it is now, it can never be reversed.
I have no choice but to throw a gambler.

Squeak-

Moon Seong-min’s body turned into smoke.
While activating his power, short-distance teleport, at the same time, he concentrated magic into one of his fists.

The woman standing behind has the ability to block the movement of magical power.
But she felt it when she saw it.
Her ability is not to be used on herself, but spreads throughout her space centered on her.
In other words, if it were now, Lee Ho-yeon would be exposed to that ability.

‘Aim for the moment to cut off my movement.’

Moon Seong-min’s last aim was sharp.
If he tried to cut off his movement, he could cause great damage to Lee Ho-yeon, and if he didn’t block it, he would just run away.
Of course, his head was spinning as he prepared for power and attack at the same time, but he somehow endured.

‘Are you trying to run away again?’

Hoyeon Lee frowned.
He hoped that he might be able to block it with Macheongung, but it doesn’t seem to be possible either.

‘Way. Is there no way… ?’

A few times I missed it this way.
I didn’t want to lose any more, even if I died.
When Lee Ho-yeon casts a spell to catch Moon Seong-min, who is trying to escape.

Without any sign.
His shoulder blades were cut purple.

*

After Moon Seong-min fell into the restaurant.
Kang Hyo-rin, Irene, and even Moon Su-rin came downstairs following them.
Fortunately, the demons who were separated from Moon Seong-min were in a state where they could not touch the civilians.

Landing on her floor, Moonsoo Rin checked her surroundings.
I saw Moon Seong-min, who had fallen first, on a slightly distant street.
And I saw a man standing in front of him.
Hoyeon Lee.
Moon Seong-min was facing Lee Ho-yeon.

“… Uh?”

Moon Soo-rin blinked her eyes in embarrassment for a moment.
Why is Hoyeon here?
Lee Ho-yeon frowned as if he was angry, and exuded a strong mana.
And around the table, where Lee Ho-yeon seemed to have just woken up, I could see the faces of women he had never seen before.

‘Uh? Huh?’

Irene was quicker to grasp the situation than Moon Soo-rin.
It was the same that she was embarrassed to see Lee Ho-yeon, but it was because she found Scarlett right next to her.

“… Scarlett?”
“1 Team leader? Why are you here… Wait a minute. Kang Hyo-rin. I wish I could explain the current situation.”
“Um, no. Somehow, the Victoria Building has become a base of operations. I didn’t specifically call you for insurance. Scarlett, don’t look at me like that. Isn’t it really? You’re raising such suspicions between us?”
“This crazy bitch is really… Ha ha.”

Scarlett rubbed her forehead as if her head hurt.
Suddenly she said the reservation was vacant, which she gratefully received, but it was clear that she had called herself into insurance.
You should get rid of this job right away.

“… Rebecca. What kind of situation is this?”
“I don’t know either. The people over there must be Miss Scarlett’s former colleagues. Over there, Mr. Irene is a famous person. Next to him is the student council president of the academy.”
“Chairman, I know, but…”

Nam Da-eun and Rebecca were surprised by Scarlett’s emotional appearance for the first time, but quickly grasped the situation.
It was surprising that the ceiling suddenly collapsed, but mine fell and she started fighting Lee Ho-yeon, and Wen women came down and started talking to Scarlett.
Rebecca remembered seeing Irene’s face in France, so she was able to identify her.

“Liliana sister. I’m sleepy…”
“Yeah. It’s okay. Close your eyes for a bit.”

Nam Da-hee, who is the weakest as the head of household, has to take care of herself.
Liliana cast a sleep spell on Nam Da-hee and protected Da-hee Nam with her magic as she slowly closed her eyes.

“Hey, how did this happen? Scarlett? Are you aware of the situation?”
“… Miss Daeun. I also don’t know the details. But I’m going to ask you from now on.”
“Ah. Ahh. Don’t pull your hair. Scarlett. Wait a minute. I’ll tell you right away…”
“Scarlett… Why are you here? This is Korea. Lee Ho-yeon and why are you here…”
“It’s been a while. Irene-sama. I’d like to explain my situation too, but I think I need to solve the problem first.”

Irene nodded her head involuntarily at Scarlett’s words.
She was equally perplexed.
As soon as Irene came down, she noticed Lee Ho-yeon’s figure. She wonders why Lee Ho-yeon is here, but she prioritizes sharing the information she knows rather than asking questions.

“I was tracking down the culprit of the recent noisy Mine serial murder case, but in the process of Mine running away, I broke the floor and fell under a building, and you were there just in time.”
“It’s because of you.”
“Aaaaah! Please, I didn’t know either…! I just thought Lee Ho-yeon and I would come alone!”
“Lee Ho-yeon? Why does Lee Ho-yeon’s name appear there?”

Scarlett, who did not answer Irene’s question, grabbed Kang Hyo-rin’s hair and pulled it with a vengeance.
Of course, Kang Hyo-rin also didn’t think that everyone would come together like this.
Lee Ho-yeon and Scarlett are strong enough reserve forces.
It seems that they brought it as insurance in case of an unexpected situation, but that was not something Scarlett knew.

“… Miss Da-eun? Why is Miss Da-eun here?”
“Student President…? Why are you falling from above?”
“That’s because I was investigating…”

When Moon Soo-rin looked at Nam Da-eun, she was surprised inside.
She knows that Nam Da-eun likes Lee Ho-yeon.
Because he’s a popular guy.
But she was close enough to eat together.

‘… But why are there so many women?’

Moonsu-rin looked around the table where Lee Ho-yeon was sitting, and frowned at her.
A woman, one, two, three, four… Five.

In an instant, Moon Seong-min was erased from her head.
