Disciple of The Three Kings [EN]: Chapter 86

The Three Kings’ Disciple (87)

086

“Who are you?”

A giant man who suddenly appeared asked Lee Ro-woon.

Lee Ro-woon looked around and saw the Hao Clan disciples, who were evacuating, bowing to him.

“Who are you?”

The giant man replied without any change in expression to Lee Ro-woon’s question.

“I am Chunrang.”

Chunrang.

He had only said his name.

Wooong.

Yet, the world was resonating as if responding to him.

Through that, Lee Ro-woon could understand.

‘The laws of the world.’

The laws of the world that the Hao Clan had to abide by, the permission of the Three Gates [a system of authority within the Hao Clan].

And the giant man in front of him was that.

“The leader of the Nang Gate.”

The leader of the Nang Gate, who was in charge of one of the three pillars.

He could tell after facing him directly.

What the laws of the world were.

The Chunrang in front of him was a monster of the same caliber as the Guigokju [a powerful, monstrous being].

Goooh.

The energy he exuded was beyond the peak of the Mystic Realm.

But that didn’t mean he was the same as the Guigokju.

“He’s not human.”

It wasn’t that his power was monstrous.

It was literally.

That he was not human.

“A dungeon keeper….”

A being like the boss of a gate.

However, it wasn’t that a living being like Kang Cheol had become a keeper.

‘The will of the world.’

The will of the world that the Hao Clan possessed, which had accumulated over a long time and had become tangible.

“Who are you?”

The permission of the Three Gates, the laws of the Hao Clan, were not something that could be avoided.

They were something that naturally manifested when certain situations were met.

“Who are you, seeking the permission of the Nang Gate?”

Chunrang asked Lee Ro-woon again.

“Lee Ro-woon.”

When Lee Ro-woon finally answered.

Thud!

He slammed his large spiked club into the ground.

“The Nang Gate’s trial begins.”

As soon as he finished speaking, the stopped energies began to move.

They were all the same.

‘They’re not human.’

The will of the world, and beings born by using nourishment as their bodies.

“Monsters, huh.”

Hweeeeek!

A huge spiked club was swung in front of Lee Ro-woon’s eyes.

The spiked club barely missed him, but the wind pressure from the backlash greatly struck Lee Ro-woon’s body.

“Show the will of the Nang people, challenger.”

Chunrang, who was holding the spiked club.

An indescribable, immense energy began to emanate from his body.

When that enormous power became tangible and spread behind him in the form of an aura.

Kwaang!

Lee Ro-woon’s right foot struck Chunrang’s head.

***

It was the first time for Lee Ro-woon to see a tangible being created by the laws of the world.

However, Lee Ro-woon was able to understand a lot just by seeing it.

‘The laws of the world cannot be avoided.’

If he decided to or if a situation arose, the laws would manifest to protect the world.

‘The ones who make up the laws are not human.’

There was a possibility that the subject was human, but at least the Chunrang in front of him.

He was not human.

Kwaang!

Then there was nothing to resist.

Kwaaang!

Chunrang was the same as the warriors of the Hoi [a group that has occupied the Hao Clan].

Kwaaaaang!

It meant that he was just a being to be killed.

Chunrang’s spiked club shook violently from Lee Ro-woon’s kick.

In the gap that was created.

The moment Lee Ro-woon reached out his hand to shoot a blood needle.

Kakaakang!

The weapons of the Nang people who rushed in from all directions turned Lee Ro-woon into a skewer.

Sreuk.

The form of Lee Ro-woon, who had become a skewer, blurred, and he stood in the sky looking down at the Nang people.

‘Form Shift.’

It was a high-level technique that allowed one to move while leaving afterimages when one reached the peak of lightness techniques.

However, what Lee Ro-woon had done was different from other martial artists.

The form that remained in the place where Lee Ro-woon had been just now.

It collapsed and turned into a thick mass of blood.

‘Blood Clone.’

Using blood to leave afterimages, and those afterimages.

Phuhwaaaaak!

They exploded when Lee Ro-woon wanted them to.

The Nang people who had attacked Lee Ro-woon were impaled by hundreds of blood needles and fell to the floor.

Ignoring those who would definitely not be able to get up again, Lee Ro-woon’s form began to fall.

Kooong.

Chunrang, who had slammed his spiked club into the ground.

His eyes began to glow with a blue light.

-Gaaal!

As he shouted, his energy rode the spiked club and became a blue wolf that rushed at Lee Ro-woon.

The wolf and Lee Ro-woon faced each other in the air.

The blue wolf opened its jaws wide as if to swallow Lee Ro-woon in one bite, and Lee Ro-woon kicked the air once more, retreated, and reached out his hand.

“This is how you do it.”

The martial arts that he had learned from Master Shin Yeo-wool were a form of no-style, without any martial arts.

It was something that had deviated from concepts and common sense to deal with chaos.

However, it was not his master’s martial arts that were needed in this situation.

‘They’re watching.’

Many people of the Hao Clan were watching him now.

‘That guy too.’

A gaze that could be felt from afar.

Ha Se-min would also be watching this fight.

So, something other than his master’s martial arts was needed.

Something that would be imprinted in their minds.

‘Blood Beast Hundred.’

What he had used.

“Blood Dragon.”

From Lee Ro-woon’s outstretched hand, crimson blood poured out like a waterfall.

Soon, it began to take shape.

Tzeeeeok!

The shape of a dragon with its jaws open.

The blue wolf.

Thump.

It was swallowed in one bite by the Blood Dragon and scattered away.

Even so, the Blood Dragon was still rushing towards Chunrang as if it was still hungry.

Kwaaaaang!

A huge explosion rang out as the Blood Dragon and Chunrang, who swung his spiked club, collided.

The fountain of blood that was spewed out as the Blood Dragon exploded was like a waterfall flowing in reverse.

Hwaaaak!

The Blood Dragon returned to Lee Ro-woon’s hand.

And what was left.

“Kuh… uh….”

Was the appearance of Chunrang, whose whole body was torn to pieces.

“Now it’s a bit….”

Taat.

Lee Ro-woon said as he lightly stepped on the ground.

“I’m waking up.”

He could feel the sleepiness that had been engulfing his whole body receding for a moment.

A slightly lighter feeling.

“Now, don’t make me wait any longer, okay?”

With those words, Lee Ro-woon sat down on the ground in a lotus position.

* * *

“Isn’t he crazy?”

Ha Se-min looked at Lee Ro-woon, who was sitting in a lotus position, with a dumbfounded expression.

‘The Nang Gate’s trial.’

It wasn’t something that could be solved in that way.

The will of the Nang people.

It was a trial that could only be passed by showing the desire to live and its intensity.

But.

“He pushed through with force?”

Lee Ro-woon had not passed the trial.

In other words, he had broken the trial with force.

There were not many beings who could do such a thing.

Even Ha Se-min himself was not confident that he could do that.

If it weren’t for the permission of the Three Gates, the Hao Clan could not have been occupied so easily because of the permission of the Three Gates, if the Hoi, who had occupied the Hao Clan, did not have the permission of the Divine Demon Token [a token of power] and the Clan Leader.

“Huh.”

A hollow laugh came out involuntarily.

“Huh… hahaha.”

Ha Se-min’s eyes narrowed as he laughed softly.

“Clan Leader.”

A girl who had come out of the room without him noticing.

She spoke to Ha Jin.

“Is he, really that person?”

Ha Se-min, who was asking that, also knew.

That Ha Jin’s hand was trembling.

“Ah….”

She couldn’t even speak.

Ha Se-min knew that her large eyes were filled with tears.

“Please don’t say anything.”

That was why Ha Se-min turned around.

“I’ll be back.”

The confirmation was over.

Lee Ro-woon, who had become stronger while he was away.

He had not just become stronger.

‘He found it.’

It was clear that he had found something he had lost.

“Please keep your promise.”

If Lee Ro-woon was the person Ha Jin had been waiting for.

If he defeated him.

The promise to give him the Hao Clan.

‘That person.’

Ha Jin had never told anyone about the existence she was waiting for.

However, through the fragments of information she occasionally shared, he could tell that Ha Jin’s trust and faith in that person was similar to what he had for Ha Jin.

A faith that would never be broken.

The faith he had in her was that Ha Jin was thinking of the Hao Clan and the Hao Clan disciples.

However, that was broken when she handed over the authority of the Hao Clan to the Hoi, who had brought the Divine Demon Token.

Then.

‘The Clan Leader will be the same.’

Her faith in the person she had been waiting for.

Faith in an eternal, invincible god.

If that was broken.

‘Please come back.’

She would return to her original self, the way Ha Se-min knew her.

Step.

Ha Se-min walked towards the window.

The opponent was not the Lee Ro-woon he had first seen, nor the leader of the failing Blood Cult.

A strong person who could even break the Nang Gate’s trial with force.

Even so, Ha Se-min’s face did not show any fear of defeat.

“I’ll show you where this place is.”

This place was the Hao Clan.

He was the king of such a Hao Clan.

* * *

Lee Ro-woon, who had been sitting in a lotus position, slowly opened his eyes.

The Hao Clan disciples, who had been anxiously trembling and holding their breath while keeping their places during the Nang Gate’s trial, had disappeared somewhere.

Hweeng.

The streets were empty.

“…….”

The Nang Gate’s Nang people and Chunrang’s corpse had also disappeared.

They, who made up the laws of the world, had not died, but had only temporarily stopped working.

They would return after recovering.

Thus, only the corpses of the Hoi’s warriors who had been oppressing the Hao Clan disciples remained on the streets.

And one more person.

“You’ve finally come here.”

A familiar man.

“You’re the first man I’ve ever met in my life that I can’t read.”

A suit that strangely matched the world of the Hao Clan.

A man who always looked exhausted.

It was Ha Se-min.

“No, even if I read you, it’s probably that I can’t believe it.”

Ha Se-min, who had been trying to predict Lee Ro-woon’s next actions by grasping his personality and actions.

However, his predictions had repeatedly missed the mark.

It wasn’t that he couldn’t predict Lee Ro-woon’s next actions.

‘No way.’

The question of whether he would really do such a thing was what had twisted Ha Se-min’s predictions so far.

It was the same now.

Because the Blood Cult had become closely related to the Black Market, he thought that Lee Ro-woon would soon notice the changes in the Hao Clan.

“Just in case, I’m telling you, I didn’t tell the Hoi about you. The Black Market’s investment in Eunha was unofficial and personal.”

Even he wouldn’t back down, would he?

That’s what he thought.

“Are you telling me to back down?”

Lee Ro-woon said, raising one eyebrow.

“To go back?”

Sreuk.

Lee Ro-woon got up.

“You’re not that kind of person.”

“Why did you hand over the Hao Clan to the Hoi?”

Lee Ro-woon interrupted Ha Se-min, who was about to speak, and asked again.

“Not you, but the Clan Leader.”

“…….”

“Considering your personality and loyalty to the Hao Clan, you’re not the kind of person who would hand over the Hao Clan for any reason.”

Although it was short, Lee Ro-woon had also read Ha Se-min.

“The one you had no choice but to follow handed over the Hao Clan to the Hoi. And that’s….”

A gesture that Lee Ro-woon had made when he first met Ha Se-min.

Coo.

A shape that seemed to pierce the sky.

It was a finger pointing to the one above Ha Se-min.

“It can only be the Clan Leader.”

“…….”

At that time, Lee Ro-woon’s eyes narrowed.

Cok cok cok cok.

A thick killing intent that he had never felt before pierced Ha Se-min’s body.

“Who did the Hoi bring?”

There seemed to be a strong will in Lee Ro-woon’s words.

“It’s not who, but they brought an object.”

“An object….”

Lee Ro-woon’s eyes returned to normal.

“At least, it means that the Hoi is involved.”

Now, what he wanted to know was over.

“What are you doing?”

Lee Ro-woon said to Ha Se-min.

“Aren’t you going to fight?”
