The Heavenly Demon Can’t Live a Normal Life

Chapter 385 Second Continental War (8)

Passus –

Shadows spread all over the city.

As soon as the shadows swept through the alleyways as if they were permeated by the wind, their red eyes flashed as soon as they spotted a person.

Kwajik.

quadruple.

“Ughhhhh!”

It bit people’s bodies from all sides.

Without a chance to resist, their limbs were torn off, and the walls of the alley were stained with blood along with painful screams.

They were like bloodthirsty prey.

Strategic movement was completely excluded, and whenever it discovered the movement of a creature, it rushed at it and tore people to pieces.

this operation.

Shadows close to witches were mainly put in.

Considering the possibility of a magic bomb, the people inside the building were not targeted, but those who were exposed outside, such as carrying supplies, were surely killed.

It was only for a moment that Dmitri was stained with confusion.

Most of the fully armed troops were fighting a life-and-death battle in the outer castle, so the powerless civilians had no choice but to watch the situation with their mouths closed forcibly.

It was then.

“Huh.”

Moment.

The shadow and the woman in the building met their eyes.

The shadow’s face contorted fiercely like a demon at what happened while sneaking through the window to check the outside.

“Rurrrrrrrrrrrrrrr.”

Kill any humans you find.

It was an order given to the shadows.

I didn’t touch the humans in the building as much as possible, but I didn’t calculate the situation complicated enough to leave it alone even though I discovered the existence.

The shadow swelled its huge body.

Just as he was about to swing his huge nails at the window, the sun shining over his head was covered by a mysterious shadow.

puck!

Kwadeuk.

He cut his head with a sword and twisted his neck.

The shadow died with a scream of agony.

it started

location exposed.

McBurney shouted as he looked at the shadows that found him, roughly pulling his sword from the shadow’s head.

“The number of enemies is not many. It was probably intended to cause chaos in the city and cause cracks in the defense of the outer castle. We protect civilians from now on. Kill all the rampaging shadows in front of our eyes and unconditionally block our lines so that the problems here do not affect the outer castle.”

“All right.”

Sasasasak –

The detached unit moved.

Their movements were all unique.

Some walked with a limp, some were missing an arm like McBurney, and some walked a little slow, as if something was uncomfortable.

It was a characteristic of the detached unit.

People who were evaluated as unable to hold weapons any longer due to the aftermath of the war took up arms with intense desire.

McBurney was their hope.

As he proved that even a one-armed man could show tremendous force, people visited McBurney every day and succeeded in creating the current detachment.

and.

Behind them was Roman Dmitry.

To the intensely aspiring, he was capable of presenting all solutions, just as he had pointed out the Left Hand Sword.

“Rurrrrrrrrrrrrrrr.”

“Gagging.”

A scream rang out.

A member of the detached team, who had a limp, kicked the ground and cut the opponent’s chest, and others rushed forward to deal with the shadows.

The resistance of the shadows was also formidable.

The shape of the monster inflated its body, revealing ferocious teeth, and there was also a shadow that spewed out an aura using a sword.

Qurrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr.

Above the head of the detached team.

The sword fell.

Like McBurney, he had only one arm, so there was no way to defend because he had already tried to attack.

OK.

Caang!

“Fight back!”

Another detached team member blocked it instead.

They trained on how to compensate for each other’s physical flaws, and the detached team member with a disabled leg beat off the shadow’s attack.

The transition between offense and defense was very natural.

As expected, the one-armed detached crew immediately raised an aura, and as soon as it cut through the chest, the shadow trembled and dispersed in smoke.

this place.

It is Dmitri’s land.

A space very familiar to the members of the detached corps.

As the shadows were quickly dealt with using the topography of the alleyway, the civilians watching the situation showed little hope.

In particular, McBurney’s performance was outstanding.

Dozens of shadows scattered like dust at his lightning-fast attack, so that he couldn’t even recognize the fact that he had no arm.

but.

It is still too early to discuss victory.

McBurney, who was about to deal with the fallen shadow, raised his sword to block the dangerous energy that penetrated his senses.

Quaang!

Qurrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

“Keugh.”

pushed all the way back

Blood flowed from the cries.

“You guys are just trying to stop us. I’ll cut your throat to prove what a futile idea that is.”

Qurrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

Aura shimmering everywhere.

sure

The shadow in front of me was a six-star swordsman and the leader of the shadows.

* * *

One breath.

The moment he inhaled and exhaled, McBurney noticed a shadow crashing right in front of him.

pod.

Qurrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr.

barely blocked it

He raised one arm to prevent his neck from being blown off, but McBurney was forced back madly in a single blow.

The opponent is a six-star aura swordsman.

Although the aura system was newly established by Roman Dmitri, it was impossible to block the 6-star aura with only McBurney’s skills.

“Two.”

Spit blood.

fleeting moment.

As the shadow tried to attack again, he tore the magic scroll McBurney had prepared.

“Haste strength.”

anger.

It was a blessing-type magic.

This alone wouldn’t be able to close the gap with the 6 stars, but that doesn’t mean you couldn’t run away with the shadow in front of you.

‘With the skills of an ordinary detached team member, you can never deal with a 6-star swordsman. I have to make the most of my time. The only way to defeat this guy is to organize the rest of the shadows and attack at the same time.’

Not really hopeful.

will die

Knowing that, it was something McBurney had to do.

Caang!

Kaka Kaka Kakang!

It was a fierce clash.

Seeing the strong shadow, McBurney blocked it while aiming for a vital spot with strange movements.

It was an anomaly unique to the left-handed sword.

Attacks that deviated from the normal trajectory attacked the loopholes of the shadows, but the existence that expressed the 6-star aura showed reaction speed that overwhelmed McBurney.

Kaang-

The attack is blocked.

at the same time.

Flash.

Blood splattered from his face.

It’s a shame because he turned his head just a second away, and McBurney’s head was almost blown off by the blow.

I was out of breath.

While at the Southern Training Center.

I couldn’t even imagine a confrontation with a 6-star prosecutor.

No matter how much he was an instructor in charge of a training center, he was just an ordinary person whose birth was not so great.

Even now, I didn’t have the confidence to do something as great as Chris and Kevin.

But I can only afford it. McBurney swallowed the blood that ran disgustingly down his throat as there was no one to deal with the massacre in the city.

hook.

Aimed at the vitals.

The shadow smirked.

“You cheeky bastard.”

set of circumstances.

The reason why they were able to exchange battles in their own way was that the target McBurney trained for was not a normal being, but Roman Dmitri.

Destructive power that overwhelms even the 6-star aura.

The times of severe training against him made the current McBurney, and it was very annoying as a shadow.

Dmitri without Roman Dmitri.

Only such beings.

I didn’t like the idea of trying to stop Alexander’s ambitions.

In the world of humans, the level of 6 stars is not often found, but the Kronos Empire mobilized a new 6-star swordsman that others did not know about even after Sven died in the last operation.

That was the class difference.

Fundamentally completely different, the shadows lashed out at McBurney with rage.

Quaang!

Kwak Kwa Kwa Kwa Kwam!

My body shook.

Every time he was excited, McBurney’s eyes fluttered.

It felt like my life was burning up.

That moment.

squeak.

“Cheup.”

The leg was lightly cut.

As McBurney staggered back, the shadow laughed as if it had won.

“Go and call the others. please help me All of Dmitri’s people are about to die, so please help this place no matter what the situation is. If you don’t ask for help, I’ll kill everyone in Dmitri. I will turn this place into hell, advance into the castle and cut off King Dmitry’s head.”

finished.

It was an impossible win from the start.

Not Chris, not Kevin.

However, it is not the same kind of fundamentals as Fernando, who was recognized by people.

one instructor.

That was McBurney’s limit.

As he had no arms, the premise of blocking six-star aura tests was wrong.

throbbing.

My heart raced.

‘Am I going to die here?’

maybe.

That would be an unavoidable reality.

But even so, the detached team believed that it would complete its mission to the end.

It was then.

Quaang!

Qurrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

little distance away.

A huge explosion was heard there.

The sound reminded McBurney of a conversation he had with the detached corps an hour earlier.

* * *

1 hour ago.

The Byeoldongdae expressed their intention to help the outer castle.

However, Knight Commander Jonathan reminded them of their respective roles and asked them to block any unknown variables.

beyond extrinsic.

A noise was heard.

Hearing the explosion of magic, people screaming, and the noisy intertwining of weaponry, McBurney said to the detached corps that followed him.

“… the day i first met you I thought you guys were right crazy. It was both pitiful and funny to see these guys who lost their arms, lost their legs, lost their eyes, and couldn’t sleep, having nightmares every night, begging to take up arms again for Dmitri. At that time, I didn’t ask you why. I also went through the same thing, so I accepted the position of commander of the detached unit with the hope that you guys will find at least some hope for a future life.”

at that time.

McBurney was not happy.

It was obvious that it would not look so good from the outside as the guys who were lacking somewhere gathered together.

but.

Still, I couldn’t refuse.

Like himself, who fell into despair the day he lost his right arm that uses a sword, he couldn’t turn his eyes away from the guys who were struggling to survive.

That’s how the Byeodongdae was created.

I was given a mission in my own way, but I went to training without questioning whether I would be able to fulfill my role in actual combat.

and today.

Dmitry is in crisis.

In a situation where the strength of the detached unit may be needed, McBurney revealed the question he had struggled to suppress.

“Why? Why did you want to become a separate unit?”

“… That’s natural.”

It was a familiar voice.

A man who listened calmly to McBurney’s story lowered his head and looked at the ground, recalling the past.

“Leader. We still can’t forget what happened when we were taken prisoner. The comrades who were dragged away screaming and trembling, not knowing when they would be tortured in a dark space, were abandoned on the floor holding their breath. I heard the news that the war was over, but I was going crazy with resentment for Dmitri for not rescuing us prisoners of war. Actually, it wasn’t a matter of blaming Dmitri. Dmitri did not even know the existence of prisoners of war in the first place, and even if he did, it was a very sensitive matter to cancel the armistice negotiations to save us.”

his name.

It was Carol.

A prisoner of war and a member of the 3rd Corps after being released from captivity.

He gathered other colleagues to persuade McBurney and created a new group called Byeodongdae.

“But Roman Dmitri saved us. It’s really ridiculous, but he was prepared to go to war with Cronus just to save a few prisoners. Leader. Why do you want to become a byeoldongdae? As the people around us say, we can live on the war reparations alone in our new secure roles. But that’s why I can’t just watch it all the more. I will never allow Dmitri, who never abandoned us, to fall to an evil group like Cronus.”

one sincerity.

It colored the surroundings.

All of them revealed their true feelings, and even though they were physically uncomfortable, they went out to find work for Dmitri.

“Maybe we will die as detached units. Someone might say that life is really fleeting if you die like that after barely escaping from the prisoner of war. But if I and we die for Dmitry. If, through that sacrifice, Dmitri would keep that existence to the end. I am sure that Dmitri will take care of my family. my wife and my children. Dmitri never gives up. So, even if I die, Dmitri must be as good as I can be.”

The voice grew more and more exasperated.

The eyes were stained red.

he is also a person

Dying was terrifying, but Carol had gone through a lot and learned that life is more important than life.

Others sympathized with silence.

Everyone had the same idea, and although the body was not healthy like other units, the detached unit was fully armed in spirit.

People who will do everything for Dmitri. That was the identity of the Byeoldongdae.

McBurney was silent for a long time.

Then.

“There is something I have prepared for a day like today. I asked the superiors to formally authorize this, but the superiors rejected my request. The only person who knows about this is Jonathan Knight Commander, and he also objected to the end, but I emphasized the fact that I had to prepare for the worst and barely got permission. .”

It was a cautious voice.

but.

With Dmitri on the edge, McBurney was ready for anything.

“What I am about to tell you is our secret, and I hope that this secret will not be known to others.”

* * *

Poof.

Blood spattered.

Carol staggered with her face lost in focus at the red drops of blood that colored the sky.

‘… Will I die like this?’

last few years.

It was a truly tumultuous life.

As a soldier of Dmitri, he watched the baron family leap to the kingdom, and although it was not so great, he toured various battlefields and contributed in his own way.

Then he was taken prisoner in the war with the Kronos Empire.

At the moment when he suffered torture every day and thought his life was really over, Roman Dmitry appeared to save the prisoners of war with the contents of the communication that could have passed lightly.

Thank you.

this world.

It is a world where emergency sense prevails.

Class society divided the same human beings according to rank, and there were too many cases in which the beings of the nobility treated commoners as insignificant expendable items.

That’s why I couldn’t help but have a different feeling for Roman Dmitri.

Everyone is dedicated to him, but Roman Dmitri did not take his dedication lightly.

whether compensated financially.

whether it is shown by attitude.

He didn’t accept everything for free.

Because I was grateful for that heart, because I was so grateful that I shed tears for taking care of my family’s comfort.

Carol accepted Dmitri wholeheartedly.

I was proud of being within Dmitri’s fence, and I created a detached team to try something more.

“Cheak!”

the shadows ran

behind oneself.

The screams of civilians were heard.

The Shadow will tear itself apart and not be content with that, killing all the civilians.

Carol smirked.

“Dmitri is not a land you can covet.”

What he misses now.

It was the only fact that I couldn’t see my family in the future.

However, they did not regret this choice because they knew that if Dmitri perished, they would not be safe either.

Kwadeuk.

body was bitten

Carol hugged the shadow as she tried to tear it apart.

“Come with me.”

That moment.

The magic bomb connected to the heart reacted.

Quaang!

Kwareung kwareureureung.

Kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwak!

huge explosion!

A blinding light rose and swept away Carol and the surrounding shadows at once.
