Chapter 176 – Chapter 176 – Promise (19)

As I stepped out of the house, a corresponding energy boomed from a distance.

It was the dragon energy that Merlin exuded.

“Shit.”

Did you succeed too?

I don’t know how far she mastered it, but it was certain that she obtained the power of the dragon with the blood Merlin gave me.

It wasn’t dragon words, but releasing dragon-specific energy like this.

If you were like Merlin before, it was something you couldn’t even dream of.

I spread my energy once to respond to Merlin.

Woo woo-.

An aura like a frequency that only those with dragon power can perceive.

The reason Areumi was able to visit me before was probably because she was chasing after this aura emanating from my body.

At that time, I couldn’t control the dragon blood that was dormant in my body, so I must have spread the dragon’s energy in all directions without even knowing it.

But now it was different.

Because I can be aware of my strength and notice this aura that resonates like a resonance.

In this way, it was able to operate in a way that communicated with Merlin, who was aware of the dragon’s power.

“…Are you listening?”

Beautiful.

Of course, Areumie was also aware of this energy and was able to emit it.

However, he was quite injured during the previous battle with Merlin.

It seemed that he was hiding his energy and hiding somewhere.

It’s been quite a while since she last consumed my blood, so Areumie’s condition had no choice but to become more and more precarious.

But even so, Ah-reum didn’t come to visit me.

Just once.

After regaining the maximum condition from a precarious state.

It must have been the idea of ​​destroying together with Merlin.

But the plan was tantamount to suicide.

For Merlin, who was first attacked in the first place, the background of the evil forces is closely attached.

Also, there is no way that Merlin, who has grown from previous battles, will not lay down runes in preparation for an attack.

It was a level that was more difficult to achieve.

But Arum had no other options.

Like a moth jumping into a flame, it was clear that Areum would make that choice even though she knew she would die.

“Are you ready?”

“Already, I was prepared from the moment I came out. Hanjun.”

Kim Cha-ryeok grinned.

Looking at the guy who smiled reassuringly as usual, I made up my mind.

I had to kill Merlin.

If one of the two had to be saved, of course the one who had to live was Beautiful.

A secluded empty lot in the back mountain where no one goes.

I prepared it a few days in advance, and waited exhaling energy in the clearing.

In the distance, someone’s footsteps echoed.

Jerk, jerk.

Thud. Thud.

Matching the sound of footsteps, the dragon’s energy approached.

“Merlin.”

Merlin, who seemed to have heard my quiet whispers, appeared at the right time through her bush and smiled at me.

“I’m sorry I’m late. This is because there are a lot of intruders.”

Fresh, undried blood splattered all over Merlin’s clothes.

When I calmly asked Charyeok Kim, ‘How is it?’, Charyeok Kim nodded his head.

“No, Hanjun. I’m alone.”

“Crunch, of course you have to come alone. If you bring an uninvited guest who hasn’t received an invitation, it’s fine.”

Merlin let out a laugh at her, and she casually smacked the blood on her own clothes.

The fresh blood dripping from the bone was dripping down.

The remnants of the evil forces escorting Merlin.

Looking at that figure that must have been their blood, I felt disillusioned.

“You killed the same side, but you don’t seem to feel guilty.”

“Guilty?”

Merlin looked at me, and she asked.

“Didn’t you know. To meet you, I’m going to cut off the twigs with my own hands.”

“……”

Since she was silent, Merlin chuckled.

“Rather, you seem to feel guilty, cluck.”

I knew.

That Merlin would cut off her escorts and come to meet me on her own.

But.

Seeing him smiling like that and not doing anything wrong.

Nausea rose naturally.

“Ah. In my heart, I wanted it to be an ensemble with you and me alone, but as expected, there was another guest.”

Merlin’s gaze turned to Kim Cha-ryeok.

Strangely, Merlin blinked a couple of times quickly when he met Charyeok Kim’s eyes.

“Umm… I already expected it to some extent. But when I saw it with my own two eyes, it had a different appearance.”

Call.

Kim Cha-ryeok frowned.

Correspondingly, the guy’s muscles slowly swell.

Merlin seemed to be dumbfounded, and she sighed.

“Huh, no matter how much you say your constitution, that body as a human.”

“It’s me who’s ridiculous. Crazy old man.”

Kim Cha-ryeok relaxed his crunchy muscles.

“Even with a metamorphosis, you’re not sane. It’s against the law of Moorim.”

“It’s clumsy, isn’t it?”

To Merlin’s smirk, Kim Cha-ryeok replied sincerely.

“That’s right. So if you break a couple of joints, you’ll gradually come to your senses.”

Wood Deuk.

Blood vessels rose above Kim Cha-ryeok’s bald head.

Even I was horrified at the sight of him showing sincere strength.

It was because the figure of the guy wasn’t really human anymore, but it looked like something.

Merlin lifted the corner of her mouth, as if having fun.

“You were a more interesting guest than I thought. I like it.”

After those words, without anyone saying anything, each other’s toes moved.

Nodded

Understanding each other’s movements, pressing down on the ground with their toes.

An imminent situation.

In that situation, Merlin opened her arms wide.

“I know that.”

Seeing him so defenseless, Kim Cha-ryeok and I tried to jump at Merlin at any moment.

Soon, he saw her red hand protruding from Merlin’s abdomen and stopped her towering movement.

“Actually, I too am stricken with conscience to enjoy this concert alone.”

Wooded Deuk.

Countless hands protruded from Merlin’s abdomen.

The figure of the red hands struggling to pull out my body, pushing away my belly skin.

It was like a dead man struggling to escape from the gates of hell.

“I brought another ‘me’. I hope you like it.”

Even with the abdomen wide open, strange creatures made of red blood clots crazily crawl out.

Not a drop of her blood flowed from Merlin’s wounds.

“Fuck, what is that?!”

It was not a number that could possibly be contained in a human body.

As I watched Merlin spewing out human-like creatures from inside his body without any scars, swear words came out involuntarily.

Merlin smiled contentedly, and she answered me.

“It’s an achievement made with your blood! How is ithaha!”

Merlin, with his stomach open to the left and right, spewing out a torrent of red creatures.

Instead of pain, he seemed to feel pleasure, and he spat out cheers like crazy.

“Damn… How did I do that?”

At that grotesque scene, I unknowingly begged for help.

Soon after seeing the red creatures running like zombies, he regained his composure.

‘Should I write it right away?’

It would not have been a mere creature.

At this point, when such things are coming out countless times, I was worried about whether I should reveal my strength.

Flash

As if responding to my will, my golden left eye shone.

But then.

“I will open the road, Hanjun. You should save your strength.”

Taesan appeared before my eyes.

Wood Deuk.

A back full of muscles.

As if in the shape of a demon, the tightened back muscles of Kim Cha-ryeok blocked my path.

I grabbed the bankruptcy sword and answered.

“Okay.”

Upon hearing my answer, Kim Cha-ryeok calmly clenched his fists.

“I’m going.”

Without saying a word, I prepared to catch up behind him.

Hueup.

I heard Kim Cha-ryeok’s short deep breath.

After that, a ray of light penetrated between the red creatures.

Jjwoong-!

“…?!”

Being right behind him, I realized what had happened.

An action consisting of simply two actions.

Clenching fists, stretching forward.

With just these two extremely simple movements, a path was pierced in the middle of the red creatures that were running towards us.

Kim Cha-ryeok grinned with uplifted eyes.

“Heliosphere – Sunspot”

Above Kim Cha-ryeok’s clenched fist, there was a small dot burning ferociously.

A point made by uniting and uniting yang qi existing in the body.

As if using that point as an RBI point, the extended fist erased everything in front of me.

Looking at it again, it was a moment to admire the amazing guy’s destructive power, and he hurriedly moved his feet in line with the movement of Kim Cha-ryeok digging through the open road.

Creatures made of hideous red blood rushed from all sides.

The red dot in the center of Kim Cha-ryeok’s fist flashed, and let’s swing his fist.

It shattered like a watermelon.

Wow-!

The shattered fragments were swept away by the wave of power and spread backwards.

Whoa-!

The second road completed like that.

Kim Charyeok threw his body towards it without delay.

“Crazy bastard.”

As expected, bringing this guy was a godsend.

With a thrilling smile, I was following him.

In front of me, I saw Merlin muttering something.

“…?!”

Then, as if in response, a certain aura shuddered inside the bodies of the red creatures.

I opened my eyes and looked closely.

Small letters were written inside the bodies of the creatures.

Realizing that it was runes, I immediately shouted at Kim Cha-ryeok.

“Know.”

Constitution.

Kim Cha-ryeok, who has a particularly developed sense, immediately noticed this change and stretched out his arms.

Pew-!

The red creatures reacted to the runes and exploded.

Blazing flames attacked from all sides.

Kim Cha-ryeok waved his outstretched arms and just calmly drew a circle.

Taegeuk.

Let’s draw the Taegeuk circle gently enough that I can understand it.

The flames that hit all directions were sucked into the circle Kim Cha-ryeok drew.

“Hueup.”

Kim Charyeok took a deep breath and gradually narrowed his circle.

Chin.

When Kim Cha-ryeok held his hands, the flames did not exist.

But.

Pew-!

As if the thing that had swallowed the existence existed, the small dot that had bloomed earlier radiated light again.

Taijiquan, which swallows the opponent’s strength, and Solarquan, which pours everything into one point.

Cha-Ryeok Kim, who became a monster during vacation, led me to Merlin.

“Hanjun.”

Looking at Merlin, who is now not far away, Kim Cha-ryeok called me.

“Okay.”

I answered him, and touched the dragon armor stuck in the middle of his chest.

His mother’s blue scales emerged from her clothes.

“Warrant.”

Flash

His left eye, which had turned golden, sparkled.

In line with that, black scales covered my entire body like armor.

Charrrrr.

Except for the blue scales in the middle of my chest, my entire body was covered with black scales.

At that moment, I manifested my power.

Like Areumyi’s blood flow manipulation, each dragon has a given power.

Wooddeuk.

Be conscious of the bankruptcy sword in your hand, and let’s manifest authority.

As the black scales reacted, they were dyed with ink-colored patterns, the color of bankruptcy swords.

“Power-harmony.”

Wrapped in scales like a broken sword, I immediately jumped at Merlin.
