The Three Kings’ Disciple

Volume 12, Chapter 22

297

Facing Yu Un-hak, the sect leader of Jeomchang.

“Kwon Cheol.”

Lee Rowan called out the name of Kwon Cheol, the leader of the enemy forces.

Smirk.

A smile formed on Yu Un-hak’s lips.

It was a smile that radiated the benevolence of a pillar of the righteous faction, without a doubt.

“Yes. It’s been a while, my son.”

However, everyone’s faces twisted in shock at those words.

At that moment, Yu Un-hak, the sect leader of Jeomchang, had acknowledged it.

“Even though you cut off my head, this father is happy to see you again.”

That he was Kwon Cheol, the leader of the enemy forces.

“……!”

Also, his calling Lee Rowan his son caused a stir among both the Blood Cult and Jeomchang factions.

Murmuring.

The situation had been exposed.

“My son, Lee Rowan.”

The name of the Blood Demon that had not been revealed.

“My most prized son.”

Also, the fact that he was Yu Un-hak’s, no, Kwon Cheol’s son.

“Did you have a hard time coming all the way here?”

Everyone’s eyes shook uncontrollably at his natural demeanor.

One can only understand a situation if it is appropriate.

What was happening before their eyes was something their minds could not easily comprehend.

“Where should I start?”

Yu Un-hak said, approaching Lee Rowan without hesitation.

“What do you want to hear first?”

As if he would tell them everything, Lee Shin-woo tried to step forward, but.

Puff puff puff!

The blood spheres and blood needles that Lee Rowan had created by waving his hand were already embedded all over Yu Un-hak’s body.

Yu Un-hak’s appearance, after being hit like that, was literally a rag.

His body was torn and tattered.

Shuuk.

He disappeared in an instant and reappeared.

What had just happened was an illusion.

Or perhaps it was another shell.

Yu Un-hak, who had revealed himself, stood perfectly fine and said.

“Aren’t you curious about what came first? Whether I was Yu Un-hak.”

A voice like a whisper.

“Or whether I was Kwon Cheol.”

Whether the sect leader of Jeomchang created the enemy forces.

Or whether the leader of the enemy forces became the sect leader of Jeomchang.

He was throwing out another question.

“Don’t worry.”

Yu Un-hak said, spreading his arms wide.

It was as if he was telling Lee Rowan to run and hug him right away.

“Because today, I will tell my son everything.”

However, seeing Lee Rowan only casting a cold gaze, Yu Un-hak put his arms back in place.

Instead, a chilling murderous intent swirled in his eyes.

“However, not everyone needs to hear everything.”

Snap.

Yu Un-hak flicked his finger.

Woong!

At that moment, countless red pillars began to rise from the barrier surrounding Manila.

“……!”

Hase-min and others quickly turned their heads at the energy emanating from the pillars.

Swaaaa!

A huge wave of magical power poured out as the pillars resonated.

“Red… Bomb…!”

It was the energy emitted by the strongest bombs that they had experienced once before.

No, it was even more powerful than what they had experienced before.

“It’s a finished product.”

It was Kwon Cheol’s voice.

“What are you doing!”

Lee Shin-woo couldn’t hold back and shouted.

“Are you planning to kill everyone!”

If only one or two of those bombs exploded, this city would be blown away, and if all of them exploded, the entire Philippines would be blown away and more.

Jeong Sang-ho.

It was the same as that time.

Even though Jeong Sang-ho was the source of the bombs, Kwon Cheol had already created such bombs even without Jeong Sang-ho.

“Rowan!”

How urgent it was, Lee Shin-woo called out to Lee Rowan.

“It will be hard to find.”

Although there are bombs around those pillars, Red Bombs were biological weapons.

Bombs that explode based on the human body.

It was clear that those who were not sensitive to energy or magic would not be able to find even the slightest difference.

Hase-min’s face hardened as he knew that.

If that explodes….

‘Can we stop it again?’

Can Lee Rowan stop it?

No.

Hase-min could say for sure.

“We can’t stop it….”

The reason they were able to stop Jeong Sang-ho was because he was a single entity.

It was because they could suppress him and absorb his power.

Even if Lee Rowan had surpassed his realm and shed another shell.

“We can’t stop it. This.”

It was impossible to deal with dozens, hundreds of Red Bombs, especially those that were spread out, all at once.

Whether Kwon Cheol admitted to being Yu Un-hak, or Yu Un-hak admitted to being Kwon Cheol.

The reason they revealed the truth was this.

“It seems like it will be a spectacular fireworks display.”

Meaning to kill everyone.

Of course, there would be survivors.

Strong people like Hase-min would be able to barely protect themselves even in this massive explosion.

However, it was clear that the residents and players who had done nothing wrong, and most of the martial artists, would disappear into ashes in an instant.

It was then.

Whoong.

The wind blowing from Lee Rowan blew away their anxiety in an instant.

Lee Rowan slowly opened his mouth and called out a name.

“Jeong Sang-ho.”

He appeared not far away, with a tired face.

Jeong Sang-ho, who was erasing his trauma and recovering his body.

As he looked at Kwon Cheol with trembling eyes.

Smirk.

Kwon Cheol smiled again.

Jeong Sang-ho seemed to be furious at the sight, clenching his fist, but soon changed his expression.

“Hoo.”

What Lee Rowan did to Jeong Sang-ho was to go into his inner self and kill his trauma itself.

Originally, Jeong Sang-ho, who had been brainwashed and tortured by Kwon Cheol for a long time, would never be able to go against Kwon Cheol, but now it was not the case.

“Can you do it?”

Jeong Sang-ho’s physical condition was not yet perfect.

Rather, he was in such a precarious state that he still had to focus on recovery.

That was partly due to the long period of torture, and partly due to the fact that he had tried to destroy everything by collapsing his body in an instant.

To Lee Rowan’s question.

“I’ll try.”

Jeong Sang-ho replied.

“No. You can do it.”

A firm and hardened voice.

“I can find them.”

Although Kwon Cheol said that he had developed a new biological bomb that was a finished product, its source was ultimately from Jeong Sang-ho.

“Move with Jeong Sang-ho. He will help you find the bombs.”

It was possible for Jeong Sang-ho to find them.

“Then… there is a possibility.”

It was close to impossible for such power to be released and explode in an instant.

It was only possible if enough time was given.

“Move.”

As soon as Lee Rowan finished speaking, Kang Han-cheol picked up Jeong Sang-ho, and Hashman and others followed behind.

The Blood Cult members also began to move.

To save those who needed to be saved, and to fight when they had to fight.

Those red pillars were not simply created by leaving biological bombs unattended, but were closer to a barrier created by the enemy forces to protect them.

Tatatatat!

Everyone quickly moved and disappeared.

The same was true for Jeomchang.

They couldn’t move easily, glaring at him with a fierce look, unsure whether he was Kwon Cheol or Yu Un-hak.

However.

Thud.

A weak foot steps on the ground.

“We… the disciples of Jeomchang….”

Jang So-young, who had regained her senses.

She barely regained her balance and shouted.

“Scatter immediately and save people-!”

A voice full of determination spread out in an instant.

“No matter who it is! Save them! At least-!”

She seemed to be crying out.

“The last… do what Jeomchang has to do….”

That was the last thing she could say.

She, who had not yet recovered, collapsed after finishing those words.

“My daughter.”

Yu Un-hak, who was smiling benevolently again, said.

“Do everything you can.”

In that place where everyone had disappeared.

Only Lee Rowan, Jang So-young, and the one who was unknown whether he was Kwon Cheol or Yu Un-hak remained.

* * *

Woong.

I could tell by the energy emanating from it.

‘There is time before the bombs explode.’

The bombs that Kwon Cheol had prepared did not explode in an instant.

They would explode one by one, in order.

The energy that could be contained in a human body was limited, and unless it was an entity like Jeong Sang-ho, who was the source, it was impossible to create such a massive explosion alone.

Therefore, the explosion would naturally occur by touching and absorbing the inner energy, mana, and magic that existed around it.

So, the whole thing could not explode at once.

-The order is important.

Lee Rowan sent a telepathic message.

There would be an order in which the bombs would explode.

And if the bombs were removed according to that order, the explosion could be prevented.

-Jeong Sang-ho will be able to figure it out.

From now on, it was something they had to entrust to him.

If he moved, he could solve it in time, but.

“Aren’t you going?”

Then he would have to let Kwon Cheol in front of him get away again.

Smirk.

He was smiling.

“Is that the main body?”

Lee Rowan asked him.

Lee Rowan did not contact Kwon Cheol or anyone from the orphanage after leaving the Saebom Orphanage.

He rarely even saw his brother, Lee Shin-woo, let alone the enemy forces.

Even so.

-Kwon Cheol.

Lee Rowan did not let go of his connection to Kwon Cheol.

Someday.

“I know your ability.”

Waiting for this day.

“You can possess special seeds planted through mutation.”

Kwon Cheol’s hidden job was a Mutant.

However, as a result of Lee Rowan’s long investigation, Kwon Cheol’s ability was not all that.

Hidden jobs were something that only special people chosen among the players could have.

They were the ones who could exert power like authority, going beyond the general trajectory of power.

If the conditions and circumstances were right, those with hidden jobs could even defeat stronger people than themselves at the time they acquired the job.

That is why Eun was so focused on identifying players with hidden jobs and wanted to manage them with their own hands.

However, among the players, the special ones were not only those with hidden jobs.

There was a more rare special case.

-Multiple classes.

They were those who possessed multiple jobs at the same time.

Those who had two or more jobs.

They were also as powerful as players with hidden jobs.

Just by having the classes of a mage and a swordsman at the same time, they could use a special power called a magic swordsman.

And Lee Rowan was able to find out after a long investigation.

-It doesn’t make sense.

It was possible because Lee Rowan was also a player with a hidden job.

Although hidden jobs could use powers close to authority, Kwon Cheol’s ability was not easily understood.

If it wasn’t for the secret incident that his old friend who was in the enemy forces had told him about.

-How can that be possible?

Kwon Cheol.

“I finally figured it out.”

There is another special thing besides a hidden job.

“Your secret.”

Kwon Cheol’s secret.

He was not only a Mutant but also a multi-classer with another job.

Kwon Cheol’s expression changed.

It was the moment when his smiling and relaxed face became expressionless.

“Hidden class.”

His job along with Mutant was.

“Possessor.”

That was his secret.
