My Lord Who Is Being Prudent! [EN]: Chapter 292

292. Kyle’s Journal (2)

I could sense presences all around me, and soon, numerous figures revealed themselves.

And they certainly weren’t wearing attire common on the continent.

Their appearances were also quite exotic and foreign.

The energy I felt from them was also very unfamiliar.

As unfamiliar as it was, the energy was considerable.

Roughly hundreds of these individuals were all knights who had undergone rigorous training.

However, each and every one of them was at least Master-level [a high rank in martial arts].

There were even quite a few figures comparable to Durak.

A beggar dressed in tattered rags.

A Taoist [a follower of Taoism, a Chinese philosophy and religion] with a long beard and wearing a robe.

A monk with fine wrinkles and a shaved head.

A swordsman whose graceful movements made it seem as if a floral fragrance would emanate.

Individuals with distinct characteristics.

All of them possessed a presence comparable to Durak.

And among them, the most outstanding one.

A man as proper as if there was no flaw to be seen.

“I thought you would already be dead…”

The man stepped forward and spoke to Kyle.

Kyle stared silently at the man with bloodshot eyes and uttered.

“Martial Alliance Lord, Hak Do-woon…”

Hak Do-woon responded to Kyle’s words as if in reply.

He brought his fists together in front of him in a respectful bow [a common greeting in martial arts circles] and bowed his head.

“As a martial artist, I pay my respects to your martial prowess.”

Kyle wordlessly stared at Hak Do-woon.

Soon, Hak Do-woon raised his head and opened his mouth.

“However, you are merely a demonic leader. Your existence is nothing more than a scourge to the martial world.”

Following that, Hak Do-woon assumed a stance and began to gather his energy.

A clear and pure energy burst forth, beginning to dominate the surrounding space.

‘It’s more than Durak.’

With that power, Cyan could immediately grasp Hak Do-woon’s level.

Furthermore, even if he were to confront Cyan now, he couldn’t easily guarantee victory.

However, Kyle’s expression didn’t change at all.

Aside from the blood covering his entire body and his complexion turning pale.

He wasn’t receiving any pressure from Hak Do-woon’s energy.

Just then.

“To be able to maintain such an expression even with the leaders of the Nine Great Sects gathered…”

A voice was heard from behind Hak Do-woon.

It was impossible to tell whose it was.

To be precise, Cyan had missed it.

However, it didn’t seem to be the case for Kyle.

Without revealing any emotion, he simply remained calm.

He merely sent a cold and ruthless gaze.

“There must have been a reason why you brazenly broke through the Heavenly Net [a strategic encirclement].”

Soon, the owner of the voice revealed himself.

A man with an impression like a snake.

The man’s gaze was directed at the fallen old man.

The old man who had tried to help Kyle but was instead struck down by him.

At first glance, he was gasping for breath and dying.

However, his life was not in danger at all.

“Could it be that Lord Wang has cooperated?”

“Lord Wang has nothing to do with it. Cough…! He was just being annoying, so I killed him.”

In response to Kyle’s answer, the man mixed laughter into his voice.

“Cult Leader, the Heavenly Net we’ve set up to kill you isn’t just any Heavenly Net. It’s a Heavenly Net where not only the stiff old men of the Nine Great Sects but also the forces of the Evil and Dark Paths have all been mobilized. Do you understand what this means?”

The man continued speaking with a chilling gaze.

“It means that the entire world desires your death, Cult Leader. Your strength is so great that even if the world craves your death, it can’t be helped. You simply cannot be controlled. Cult Leader, you shouldn’t exist in this martial world.”

With those final words, snap!

The man lunged towards Kyle.

Kyle merely stared at the man without a word.

He didn’t show any movement, as if he had no intention of resisting.

It was meaningless to say that his condition wasn’t good.

Because Kyle was, after all, Kyle.

Kyle quietly closed his eyes.

So, Cyan wondered if he should move.

He hesitated for a moment, but he didn’t move because it was meaningless.

This wasn’t real reality.

It was Kyle’s memory and a virtual reality projected by the Mobile Lord.

Cyan couldn’t do anything here.

Also, even if he wanted to do something, it would be meaningless.

This was already Kyle’s past and memory.

Even if he changed something here, it wouldn’t have any impact on Cyan’s reality.

And more than anything, there was no need for Cyan to step in.

In an instant, a movement was felt beneath Kyle’s feet.

Someone was stepping in instead of Cyan.

Thwack!

Red blood splattered, and thud.

Someone fell on top of Kyle’s body.

Kyle’s eyes widened as he felt the weight over his body.

As he slowly lowered his gaze, he saw the graying white hair.

The old man called Lord Wang, who had tried to save Kyle no matter what.

Lord Wang moved in place of the unmoving Kyle.

“Why, why are you…”

“Live… survive… please… Cult Leader…”

Thud.

Lord Wang finally collapsed to the ground.

Kyle’s gaze, as he looked at Lord Wang, was trembling deeply.

The Kyle he had seen in Mobile Lord was always indifferent.

Kyle was someone who only exuded a cold and ruthless atmosphere.

“Ah… ahh…”

So, even Kyle could make such an expression.

Cyan couldn’t help but wear a bitter expression.

Soon, the snake-eyed man who had tried to kill Kyle but failed.

The man wore a troubled expression and spoke.

“They say there’s no martial art as exquisite as an old hag’s tongue… Lord Wang has done something unnecessary.”

콰콰콰콰쾅!!!

The space around Kyle began to burst apart completely.

A terrifying demon rose from Kyle’s dying body.

‘Ugh…!’

Cyan staggered without realizing it.

He covered his forehead with both hands and endured the pain.

The power that was being felt from Kyle right now.

The desperate feelings of Kyle that were being conveyed from that power.

Even though it was a virtual creation, not real reality, it was being conveyed vividly.

“Ah…”

It was seething.

Thoughts were seething, and the flow of ideas was seething.

The vessel containing the mind was boiling over entirely.

As a result, the whole world seemed to be seething.

“Everyone, be careful!”

“Demonic Incursion!!”

Everyone was shocked by Kyle’s seething power and prepared themselves.

Especially the one called Hak Do-woon, who was called the Martial Alliance Lord.

“Zegal Dok-myeong! Deploy the spell!”

At Hak Do-woon’s words, a scholar stepped forward.

At the same time as he stepped forward, a bizarre formation began to unfold around him.

Magic…? But the method was strange.

If he had knowledge of magic, he would have been able to grasp what that phenomenon was.

However, Cyan didn’t know much about magic.

However, that was magic, but it was not magic, but sorcery.

That was the concept that Cyan could define.

The unfolded sorcery formation began to bind Kyle’s power.

To be precise, it was denying Kyle’s existence… that was the right expression.

“Just the last step! Give this to the demon!”

“Continue to deploy the spell! I will finish it!”

In response, Hak Do-woon received something from the scholar.

Soon, he gathered his energy and stepped forward.

And swish─!

With the sound of cutting, Hak Do-woon’s head was cut off, and his body collapsed to the floor.

The futile death of the one who was called the Martial Alliance Lord.

The martial arts masters were shocked by that absurd phenomenon and burst into cries.

“The state of Detachment from Demon!”

“He even surpassed the realm of Life and Death… ?”

Everyone froze in place and was shocked.

“It can’t be… it can’t be…”

Denying the reality before their eyes, everyone trembled in fear.

In the meantime, Kyle moved.

The absolute powerhouse who reigns over the world, the Unrivaled One Under Heaven.

The Unrivaled One Under Heaven is a strongman who dominated an era.

Therefore, one exists in each era.

However, all those eras.

In the time called ancient and modern, the existence that can be called the foremost (第一) [meaning ‘number one’ or ‘the best’] by lining up all the Unrivaled Ones Under Heaven.

The Unrivaled One Under Heaven of the Unrivaled One Under Heaven.

The sky above the sky, the Outer Heaven.

The Unrivaled One Throughout History.

The eyes of that absolute being scanned the preceding vision.

As he looked at everyone trembling in fear, one by one.

It reached the one dressed in rags and was heard.

“Sorrow overflows, soaking the Beggars’ Sect.”

The gaze of the absolute being flowed.

“Loud resentment burns down Mount Wudang [a famous Taoist mountain].”

Continue, continue.

“The plum blossoms of Mount Hua [another famous mountain, often associated with swordsmen] will be adorned with the scent of blood, stained with blood dyed with screams.”

The gaze of the ruler was declaring to everyone gathered here.

At the same time, it was declaring to the world.

“And so, the whole world will eventually be stained with demons.”

The sky collapses.

The earth is turned upside down.

Heaven and earth are in turmoil, and Kyle’s feelings are conveyed intact.

It was anger and sadness at the same time.

It was sadness and hatred at the same time.

That’s why this was an unknown emotion.

A lump of unspoken emotion deep in the heart.

‘Ugh…!’

Cyan couldn’t open his mind any further.

He closed his thoughts and mind to the stinging and aching mind.

The power that was being felt from Kyle right now.

Cyan was trembling now.

It was clearly a virtual event, but the fear didn’t stop.

It was meaningless even if he raised his energy to resist.

The whole body trembled.

The power of the dragon connected to Cyan’s body.

The strongest who reigns over all things, the dragon.

Even the instinct of that dragon was trembling in fear at Kyle’s power.

Can’t stop it.

As a result, one ending came to mind.

Cyan’s thoughts were no different from what everyone here was feeling.

Even if all the martial artists in the world rushed in, they couldn’t stand against him.

No one can stand against Kyle right now.

Die.

As a result, the world will be soaked in blood.

And in the end, it will be stained and draped with demons.

The demon who hates the logic of the sky.

The existence that overturns the laws of the sky.

No one will be able to stop that step.

Only.

Thump.

Only the wrinkled hand briefly grabbed Kyle’s ankle.

“Cult Leader…”

And a faint voice was heard.

It was coming from the old man, Lord Wang, who had fallen bleeding under Kyle’s feet.

“Please… don’t lose yourself…”

In Kyle’s bloodshot eyes, hatred was contained.

In the madness where reason was encroached, Kyle’s hand was raised upward.

콰아아아아─!!

Transcendent demonic energy swirled in Kyle’s hand, distorting the surrounding scenery.

Soon, when Kyle’s hand was directed downward.

“Cult Leader… you are not such a person.”

Wang Dae-ju’s voice was heard very faintly.

It was a voice that could not be heard unless one concentrated.

However, Kyle’s movement stopped for a moment.

In an instant, the demonic energy subsided.

Kyle’s pupils, which had been encroached upon by madness, trembled for a moment.

In that gap, Wang Dae-ju’s hand moved.

As he grabbed something that had fallen on the floor, he imprinted it on Kyle.

화아아아아악!

At the same time, a bright cluster of light burst out.

The cluster of light gradually intensified and swallowed Kyle’s existence.

Kyle’s reason, which had been encroached upon by madness, returned.

“What is this…”

“It is said to be… a spell from the Zegal family. My understanding is poor… so I have not fully understood it.”

Wang Dae-ju smiled faintly and continued.

“It is said that it sends the Cult Leader to another world… Cough! From the beginning, they… do not think that they can kill the Cult Leader.”

So… so.

“I also agreed with their intentions…”

Wang Dae-ju coughed! Once again, he vomited blood on the floor.

“Cult Leader, I do not know if their words are true… but if… if another world exists as they say… if you go there…”

Kyle’s mad eyes returned.

Focus was caught in the eyes that had been dyed black.

“Please… do not come back here…”

Only then could Kyle properly hear Wang Dae-ju’s words.

“Do not even try to take revenge… do not come back and try to be alone again…”

Wang Dae-ju was lying on the floor.

The blood coughing up was quickly consuming Wang Dae-ju’s life.

The flame of life was extinguished more quickly the more he spoke.

“In the new world you go to… make friends who share your joys and sorrows…”

Wang Dae-ju did not stop speaking.

“Make a lover that you would not trade even if you were given the whole world… and so, please feel that there are not only wailing screams in the world.”

Kyle looked at Wang Dae-ju with trembling eyes.

Wang Dae-ju smiled faintly at such Kyle.

“Life is like a flower path that walks backwards… it is said that you can only feel its beauty after you have passed it…”

“Ah… ahh…”

In the breath that was swallowed, Kyle’s heart was agitated.

In the trembling breath, Kyle’s whole body trembled.

“Those words… only now that I am this old do I feel a little… Cough!”

Wang Dae-ju’s body was greatly bent by the burst of blood.

Now, even the spark of life could not be felt.

“Cult Leader… in that place, please…”

Not for the sake of the miscellaneous screams heard in the world.

Not for the sake of the abandoned and neglected people.
