The Heavenly Demon Can’t Live A Normal Life [EN]: Chapter 298

The Swordsmanship Presentation.

Alexsandr was there from the beginning to the end.

Roman Dmitry said the word ‘Dantian.’ From that moment, Alexsandr couldn’t think clearly.

“Martial arts are simple. The energy within the body…”

A weak fighter who calls himself a martial artist.

Alexsandr, who had created Aura, never mentioned ‘Dantian’ when talking about martial arts.

Thinking about it, it seemed strange.

The man who called himself a martial artist looked shabby. His boastful words seemed to be his only source of pride.

Maybe he wasn’t a real martial artist at all.

Alexsandr had heard about Qi, but this weak martial artist didn’t even know about the Dantian, which was very important. Instead, he just rambled on about martial arts.

The man probably didn’t expect that the person listening to his silly talk would become ‘Alexsandr’ after traveling through dimensions.

It was upsetting to think that the achievement he was so proud of was based on meaningless words.

Alexsandr knew that the Dantian existed.

However, he didn’t know how to use it. So, he used his knowledge of the Salamander Continent to create Aura, which used Mana inside the body.

He felt ashamed.

His pride was hurt.

On stage, Roman Dmitry openly made fun of this ‘unknown person’ who didn’t know basic things.

Now, Alexsandr understood why Roman Dmitry had revealed martial arts to the public.

The ideas of martial arts and Dantian were common in the Central Plains. So, even if he shared them, it wouldn’t change much.

There were many masters in the Central Plains. They had formed groups and developed martial arts over a long time.

That history was deep and rich.

Even if the people of the Salamander Continent learned about Dantian, they couldn’t catch up to the Central Plains’ history quickly.

They would grow in their own way, but Roman Dmitry would still be far ahead.

Kim Pan-seok.

Alexsandr’s past life was sad.

His ordinary life was a sore spot. Alexsandr promised to live a much better life in this new world.

That’s why he was proud to be the creator of Aura.

People looked up to him, and he felt that his current life was different from his past life.

Even after becoming a magician, he couldn’t let go of martial arts because he was proud of what he had achieved.

But now, his pride was shattered.

He didn’t know Roman Dmitry well, but even if Roman Dmitry was just a good martial artist, he would achieve more than Alexsandr ever could.

Alexsandr’s name would become a symbol of failure. People wouldn’t see him as great when they talked about the history of Aura.

This was because Roman Dmitry’s era had begun.

The fame of Alexsandr, the founder of Aura and the father of Aura swordsmen, would end.

He trembled, his body shaking.

He was angry.

In his past life, he would have accepted the sad truth. But Alexsandr in this life couldn’t accept it so easily.

‘Yes, Roman Dmitry. You must have wanted to show me that I am nothing with this presentation. But in the Salamander Continent, you are just a small thing. You’re acting like you’re the best because of your past life, but I have the power to beat you in this life. Revealing martial arts was a mistake. I, who created something from nothing, will show you what I can do with the little bit of knowledge you shared.’

This was a matter of pride.

If he finished his preparations in a year, turning the Salamander Continent into a sea of fire would be easy.

However, before that, he wanted to crush Roman Dmitry’s small achievements with his own martial arts.

“Image memory.”

Mana surged.

The world twisted.

In Alexsandr’s mind, he remembered a moment from the Western Front.

He remembered Roman Dmitry’s martial arts.

He saw Roman Dmitry use the Heavenly Demon’s Forest Walk and charge towards the army of 300,000 soldiers. It was amazing.

Each step shook the ground. With each move, the soldiers of the Chronos Empire disappeared without a sound.

It was an incredible sight. Alexsandr, who was sharing Sheffir’s vision, couldn’t help but admire Roman Dmitry’s power.

He had thought that martial artists from the Ten Thousand Great Mountains were just legends. But Roman Dmitry proved they were real.

‘Roman Dmitry is at least a very skilled martial artist. Where did his martial arts come from?’

No one came to mind.

Alexsandr didn’t know much about the martial world.

He only knew the leaders of the Nine Great Sects or the Heavenly Demon, the leader of the Heavenly Demon Church.

He had heard so much about the Heavenly Demon that he was tired of it.

Living near the Ten Thousand Great Mountains, he often heard stories about the Heavenly Demon.

Heavenly Demon.

He didn’t think Roman Dmitry was the same person.

To Alexsandr, the Heavenly Demon was like a god. With the power Roman Dmitry showed, he thought he was a high-ranking follower of the Heavenly Demon.

He didn’t know much about it. He didn’t even know how to describe the difference between a good martial artist and a master.

In the end, even when he remembered, he couldn’t find any useful information.

He tried to learn how to use Mana based on the Dantian that Roman Dmitry mentioned. But it was more complex than he thought. He couldn’t understand it just by looking.

He was annoyed. He had reached the 9th Circle, which was like being a god. But martial arts were completely different from magic.

Creating Aura was a great achievement.

If he didn’t have the potential as a martial artist, he couldn’t have created Aura with just the advice of a weak martial artist.

If he had been taught martial arts, he would have been much better than Roman Dmitry and wouldn’t have become a magician.

He wanted to achieve something in martial arts so that Roman Dmitry would have to respect him.

Space twisted.

He returned to reality.

Alexsandr called Mystic and gave an order.

“Order the spies in Dmitry to find out everything about Dmitry’s martial arts. I promise in the name of the Chronos Emperor that those who succeed will be rich and famous for the rest of their lives.”

“Understood.”

It was sad, but he accepted the truth.

He needed more information.

Alexsandr believed that the day he surpassed Roman Dmitry in martial arts, he would get rid of his feelings of inferiority.

Around that time, Roman Dmitry’s announcement turned the continent upside down.

“A swordsmanship revolution has occurred!”

The word revolution was fitting.

The idea of Aura, which was the basis of the continent, was changed. People paid attention to Roman Dmitry’s actions.

Even Alexsandr didn’t announce the idea of Aura easily at first.

But Roman Dmitry told even enemy countries about Dantian and martial arts without asking for anything in return. People talked about him because of this.

“What will happen to the Aura swordsmen?”

“Those who learn about Dantian and adapt will survive. Those who don’t will be eliminated. There will be big changes in the future. The current ranking system is very stable, but those who adapt will rise, and those who don’t will fall.”

“But what is Roman Dmitry thinking? Why is he sharing something so important?”

“He showed that there is a ‘basis’ for his amazing progress. This means more than just sharing knowledge. Swordsmen who want to improve like Roman Dmitry will have to follow him and join Dmitry. This will quickly shift the balance of power to Dmitry.”

As people said, things were changing.

The basic theory was shared in the Swordsmanship Presentation. But the detailed information was only in Dmitry.

So, Aura swordsmen went to Dmitry.

They believed that they could start a new life by taking advantage of the revolution caused by Roman Dmitry, even if they were seen as weaker than magicians.

Roman Dmitry’s plan was working.

With just the idea of Dantian, which was common in the martial world, he became more famous than Alexsandr and was admired by many swordsmen.

Dmitry was no longer a small country.

It was called the home of swordsmen. The growing population sent a clear message to the people.

For the first time, a ‘three-way war’ was becoming possible between Chronos and Valhalla.

Thud.

Scott, a spy from the Chronos Empire, hung up the phone and looked worried.

“…Steal Dmitry’s martial arts information.”

He had just received an order to steal the martial arts information. But his identity might have been revealed.

Roman Dmitry had found the spies with the 4th test.

The spies who were caught were sent back alive. But Roman Dmitry knew that spies like Scott were still trying to hide. So, he accepted them as ‘private soldiers’.

Just thinking about it made his heart race.

Roman Dmitry didn’t mention Scott. But he knew that his identity had been revealed.

‘Roman Dmitry is not normal. He allowed the spies to stay and even shared the information we were risking our lives to find. This means that no matter how much information we steal, Dmitry won’t be affected. Should I really follow the Chronos Empire’s orders? Is it possible that Dmitry will become the most powerful country in the future?’

He was confused.

When he first accepted the mission, he couldn’t refuse the Chronos Empire.

But now, things were different.

Roman Dmitry changed everything with the Swordsmanship Presentation. People were talking about a three-way war becoming real.

Besides, all the kingdoms in the Salamander Continent except for Odelia had said they would follow Roman Dmitry.

He wondered if he should trust the Chronos Empire with his future and his family’s future.

Just a few years ago, it was impossible to imagine that the Chronos Empire could be challenged.

Roman Dmitry broke the rules, and the old power system was collapsing.

‘I should join Dmitry for now. I’ll stay in Dmitry for a few days and decide whether to carry out the Chronos Empire’s mission. If Dmitry really has the potential to defeat the Chronos Empire, I need to find a way to get my family out of the Empire, not steal information.’

He was at a crossroads.

For now, he put his worries aside.

Even though the world was changing, it wasn’t easy to leave the Chronos Empire and follow Dmitry.

The next day, Scott joined Dmitry.

All the successful candidates from the 4th test said they wanted to serve as Dmitry’s private soldiers.
