Disciple of The Three Kings [EN]: Chapter 212

The Three Kings’ Disciple (213)

212

‘Moon King’s Descent.’

It was a sword technique that could be used when the power of the Moon King was at its peak.

No, rather than a sword technique.

-The Descent Style can be considered a realm of authority.

Yes, it’s a miracle.

The place where the sun was shining brightly was now dyed in pitch-black darkness.

The only thing emitting light was the strange crescent moon floating above the sky.

Grrr.

Both the dead and the living were mesmerized by the moonlight, stepping back in fear.

But they don’t know.

That the moment that light touched them, it was already too late.

Who could dare escape the speed of light?

The living were dazed, and the dead laid down.

And.

Saaaah.

From the crescent moon, countless invisible hands began to stretch out.

The first to be caught by those hands was a player.

A player who seemed to be dominated by Satia, exuding miasma, his eyes bloodshot with frenzy.

The moment his body touched the moonlight’s grasp.

Thud.

The player slumped down like a puppet with its strings cut.

His red eyes returned to normal, and then, they turned completely white.

Life was draining away.

Saaaaaaah!

Before they knew it, the moonlight’s hands were grabbing everything on the ground.

Stealing the life of the living, and even the souls of the dead.

Like that.

Swoosh!

The crescent moon was gradually filling up.

No one could resist that power.

Being struck by the moonlight was like being placed before an undeniable truth.

Just.

Swoosh.

There was nothing those standing could do but watch Lee Rowan’s two-handed sword, reflecting the moonlight and scattering brilliant light.

Before they knew it, the crescent moon became a half-moon.

Thud! Thud! Thump!

The half-moon was becoming a full moon.

When the risen moon finally became whole.

Crack!

A crack began to form within it.

Lee Rowan couldn’t yet execute a perfect Moon King’s Descent.

Becoming an avatar of moonlight, with the power of the moon that had stolen life, was something he couldn’t do yet.

But.

“Haa.”

That alone was enough.

Crack!

The shattering moon.

All of that power temporarily resided in the two-handed sword that Lee Rowan was holding.

Half of those who were standing had already fallen and were not moving.

And the other half.

Swoosh.

They would be cut down by Lee Rowan’s slowly drawn two-handed sword.

From right to left.

From top to bottom.

In an instant, Lee Rowan’s sword moved twice like that.

Kwaaaaaaaa!

The surging energy left huge scars on the sky and the earth.

When the sunlight returned, bringing back the original time.

Sway.

Lee Rowan swayed without realizing it.

However.

“……..”

The only people who were still standing, even in that state, were just a few, including Lee Rowan.

The hunters that Satia and Maja had prepared to hunt Lee Rowan were hunted without even being able to respond.

Thud!

Far away, Viper was visible.

In front of him, a skinny old man in a black robe was seen, skewered on Viper’s right hand like a skewer.

He must be Dark Hand.

Viper had also finished his job.

Lee Rowan’s gaze shifted again.

And standing there was.

Shudder.

Ice Empress was trembling.

Her energy swelled, her hair rising upwards, and her body began to float.

Her small body had already transformed into that of an adult.

Lastly.

Ooze.

Two horns began to grow from her forehead.

Ice Empress was neither happy that Lee Rowan had arrived, nor grateful that he hadn’t killed the martial artists of the Northern Ice Palace.

-Unimaginable.

She had already been consumed.

The Satia, parasitizing her body, had completely taken over her body.

-I will.

Her body was distorted, enveloped in pure white cold.

“I will have you.”

The reappeared her was standing just an inch away from Lee Rowan.

“No-!”

Far away, Viper was seen throwing away Dark Hand and running towards this place.

Whether he had absorbed Dark Hand’s magic essence, one of his horns had grown even more.

Bang!

Viper was running, tearing through the air, far exceeding his speed, but.

Clang!

It was impossible to stop Ice Empress, who had already turned one of her arms into an ice blade in front of Lee Rowan.

Thud!

Ice Empress’s hand blade pierced through Lee Rowan’s stomach.

“I must have you.”

Ice Empress, Satia residing in Ice Empress’s body, said.

And.

Smirk.

Lee Rowan smiled.

***

Demons of the mental realm, like Satia, existed as mental entities.

They were beings without physical bodies, like the ghost-type monster, Wraith, and could not even be seen by ordinary means.

They were like parasites.

Unable to fully exert their power without a host.

However, if they had a proper host.

Saaaah!

They were beings that could amplify the host’s power two, three, or even dozens of times.

Lee Rowan, with a hole in his stomach.

Far away, Viper was seen running.

But time was already flowing in a distorted dimension.

They had entered a time zone only for Ice Empress, or rather Maja, and Lee Rowan.

Saaaaah!

Satia was freezing Lee Rowan’s body from the inside.

“Cold doesn’t work on me.”

Lee Rowan looked down at Satia with languid eyes.

Even though her body had swelled, she was still smaller than Lee Rowan.

Indeed.

Tap, tap.

The cold that Satia was emitting seemed to be blocked by something and couldn’t advance further.

“I thought you were smart, but I guess not?”

Satia showed a moment of bewilderment but soon regained her composure and said.

“I told you. I don’t intend to kill you.”

She said.

“I will have you.”

In her distorted eyes, an unquenchable greed was visible.

Demons of the mental realm, like Satia, they.

‘Always live trapped in inferiority complexes and desires.’

Because they don’t have a physical body, they crave one, spending their entire lives searching for a better one.

To her, Lee Rowan was.

Lick.

“I’ll never meet a body like yours again, right? I wouldn’t have believed it if I hadn’t seen it myself.”

He was the existence that would satisfy her craving and desire.

“I know your mental strength is beyond imagination.”

Satia, who had already been severely defeated by Lee Rowan in the mental world.

“But the situation is different now.”

In the changed time zone, she spoke as if savoring her leisure.

“Direct connection with you, a forced contract. Do you think these ice are trying to freeze you? No.”

The spreading ice was drawing a certain shape.

It was easy to tell that it was a unique contract magic circle of demons.

“I will have you. You are mine.”

To have.

Satia began to separate from her physical body.

Revealing herself in the form of a soul, her distorted appearance was fully visible.

At that moment.

-Don’t think that I am the same as I was in the mental world.

She whispered in his ear, binding Lee Rowan with Ice Empress’s body.

-I am Satia Armode, Countess of Gehenna.

Hwaaaaaaaak!

Her soul body began to penetrate into Lee Rowan’s body.

And.

Smirk.

Even then, Lee Rowan was smiling languidly.

***

Ice Empress and Lee Rowan’s bodies were connected as one and frozen.

Shudder, shudder, shudder.

The two bodies were constantly trembling.

No one knew what was happening inside.

Viper was still running from far away.

The time zone was flowing tediously slow.

Neither Satia’s voice nor Lee Rowan’s voice echoed anywhere.

Shudder, shudder, shudder!

Lee Rowan’s vibration was becoming more severe.

Trickle.

The nosebleed flowing from his nose fell on Ice Empress’s arm, staining the pure white ice red.

Bang!

Lee Rowan’s head snapped back.

Swish!

Once again.

Swish!

Once again.

And.

-Aaaaaaaaaaaah!

Satia’s scream began to echo everywhere.

She, who had permeated into Lee Rowan’s body, was beginning to separate again.

No.

-S, save me… save me…!

She was struggling to get out of Lee Rowan’s body.

Like a prey meeting a predator, she was struggling to survive.

Lee Rowan’s nosebleed was not from Lee Rowan, but from Satia’s struggle.

-Please!

Her face, shimmering faintly, was distorted.

Fear, screams, all sorts of negative emotions that she had made others feel, not what she had felt as a demon.

-Pleaase!

It was clearly visible on her face.

Finally.

Bang!

Her body was thrown out and flung into the air.

“What…”

Lee Rowan’s clenched lips slowly opened.

“Did you think it would be different?”

It wasn’t a sneer.

He was just stating an obvious fact calmly.

“Countess, huh? It’s different from what I thought.”

She was just a mid-ranking demon.

Satia was not the demon who had dominated Namgung Cheon that he was looking for.

-You… you… no… you….

Satia, clutching her head, screamed in terror as she looked at Lee Rowan.

-How!

She screamed like a mad woman.

-The…

Satia’s soul body was becoming more and more terrified.

-The Demon King’s mark….

The moment she finished speaking.

She wouldn’t have known.

Swoosh.

That the delayed time zone had returned to normal.

Viper, who had been approaching slowly like a caterpillar, had already arrived behind her.

Lee Rowan and Viper’s eyes met.

-How do you have the Demon King’s mark!

Satia, shouting without knowing anything.

Viper had already finished his preparations behind her.

He took a stance with one foot, and slammed everything he had into both hands.

He drew out all of his inner energy that he had been training since childhood in Shaolin.

Kwaaaaaaa!

When he covered it with magic essence, all of his meridians were dyed black.

Thud!

His horn, which had absorbed Dark Hand’s magic essence, grew another layer.

Kooong!

The power that could even change the flow of air was being compressed in that place.

-……!

Only then did Satia seem to regain the senses she had not felt, consumed by fear.

The moment she desperately tried to jump towards Lee Rowan without even looking back.

Baaaaaaang!

Viper’s crossed hands pierced through Satia’s back and lifted her up.

“Haa.”

Viper’s rough breath was exhaled.

“Haa… haa… haa!”

The breath, filled with heat, finally burst out with relief.

And Satia, who was pierced by him.

-It… can’t… be….

She was just shedding tears of blood with a hollow look.

Finally.

“It’s the law of Gehenna.”

Lee Rowan said.

“Those who become lower demons by contract can always aim for higher demons.”

Which world isn’t like that, but Gehenna was a world where the law of the jungle was especially complete.

The law of the world resides in the species, and the species is ruled by that law.

“If a lower demon succeeds in hunting a higher demon.”

Saaaah!

Satia’s soul body was scattered.

“The lower demon inherits all the rights and powers of the higher demon.”

Like that.

Kwaaaaaaaa!

A being that was both human and demon was born.
