Weapon-Eating Bastard [EN]: Chapter 346

Weapon-Devouring Bastard – Episode 346

Halla Mountain, the very peak.

Seop, Ryeo, and the Mountain Keeper, the three ancient goblins, felt the seal weakening moment by moment, and groaned.

Before them.

Lee Cheol was walking alone into the deepest part of the crater.

“Is that child going to be alright on his own?”

The reason they were separated was none other than this.

Lee Cheol had requested it.

He said it was to test his own strength, but they knew it was really out of consideration for them.

“Who knows?”

The Mountain Keeper answered indifferently, but his eyes were fixed on Lee Cheol.

He was subtly holding his club in one hand, ready to rush in if anything happened.

“Hey. Show some respect to your elders.”

“Shut up, you tomboy.”

“…Fortunately, that thing doesn’t have a physical body yet. If it’s the Black Night, he can handle it well enough.”

Following the conversation between the Mountain Keeper and Ryeo, Seop swallowed hard and said.

“It’s more than we can thank him for.”

“Yes, even in this chaos, to save us…”

It was the moment Seop and Ryeo were exchanging words.

“Old man. Don’t jump to conclusions.”

The Mountain Keeper interrupted them.

“What do you mean?”

“You said it yourself, the timing isn’t good.”

The Mountain Keeper looked up at the sky.

…It was distorted.

The sky, which should have been blue and bright, had taken on a strange color from some point on.

Black, purple, blue… It looked as if all sorts of dark-colored paints had been squeezed out haphazardly.

It was black energy.

The Mountain Keeper, who had experienced the aerial fortress test, knew well that this was a sign of black energy spreading.

If so, where did the black energy in the sky originate?

Where did the energy that spread across this land and shook the seal come from?

If you think about the source of that power… it wouldn’t be strange for that demon to suddenly gain a physical body.

“If that thing awakening is also one of the signs… there’s no telling what will happen. We can only hope he can deal with the body before it’s complete.”

At the Mountain Keeper’s words, Seop and Ryeo’s eyes widened as if they were about to tear.

Meanwhile.

I lowered the Black Night [his sword] and looked down at the bubbling lava.

“I see you again, Great Demon.”

It was the moment I spoke.

The scene in front of me blurred for a moment, and a strange voice echoed in my head.

-Strange death die live no it can’t be you’re going to die it’s going to be hard destruction is imminent your family you are…….

So, a demon is a demon.

“Quit the nonsense.”

There was no need to use black energy or magic.

I closed my eyes slightly and opened them, straightening my mind.

Whoosh!

Soon, the dizziness in my head cleared up neatly.

Mental attack, huh? It was a meaningless attack to me, who had already straightened my mind completely while experiencing the Lord of Cabala [a mystical text].

-…….

Did the demon feel it too?

The guy who stopped playing tricks finally raised his body from the boiling lava.

Kwaaaaaaaang!

It was black smoke.

That’s the only way to describe it.

Black particles the size of an adult’s fist were clustered together, shaking here and there.

Like moving fog, or like a school of fish swimming in the sea, the particles moved back and forth over the heat of the lava.

-You goddamn son of a bitch. The child born tearing his mother’s womb. I came to find you for myself.

-I know you… You are the child of cursed blood. The child of an unblessed father…….

-How is it, how is it? The feeling of all your insides being exposed. I know. I know you.

A voice that sounded like a woman, or a man.

A voice that sounded like an old man, or a young man, echoed in layers.

Ugh!

At this point, even I could feel the ominous magic penetrating inside.

This guy was a monster that couldn’t be compared to other demon species.

A great ancient demon that would only appear in old religious books.

“Don’t listen to the demon’s voice! Kid! Cut it down quickly!”

“Child! What are you doing, hurry up and strike!”

The goblins’ voices were heard from behind.

‘What is that bastard doing!’

The Mountain Keeper gritted his teeth.

He could clearly see it.

The demon, who was just a spirit, was suddenly beginning to increase its presence.

Twitch!

Suddenly, a swirling ominous magic began to dwell in the guy who looked like an aggregate of black mist.

The Great Demon began to form a body.

That body was human, the head was beastly, and dozens of strands of snake heads and beast hair sprouted from its back.

“Goddamn it! What are you doing! Strike it before it gets a complete body!”

The Mountain Keeper shouted at the top of his lungs.

The demon sealed here was originally just a spirit.

Because it lost its body during the Great War and only the spirit was sealed.

But now that demon was starting to gain a body.

A demon whose resurrection was complete. It was not an existence to be easily let go.

Moreover, knowing where the power to gain that body came from, it had to be killed before it was completely resurrected.

“I can’t help it. I’m going to go right now……!”

“Don’t come. I’m waiting on purpose.”

At that time, Lee Cheol’s voice was clearly heard in the Mountain Keeper’s ear.

“……What?”

-Yes, yes, very good. Good. I am the father of the abandoned who do not see the sun. Wait for me. I will present you with the treasures of all nations…….

Amidst the demon’s voice continuing intermittently, I roughly brushed off the voice and opened my mouth.

“There was something to confirm. And, if I deal with it ambiguously, only trouble will remain.”

This demon had to be dealt with here.

I was going to completely annihilate the guy who had gained a body and whose spirit was completely imbued.

“What……? Heok!”

It was that moment.

Pshooooooo!

The lava that filled the floor cooled down as it was.

No, it froze over.

The air suddenly dropped coldly, and a reversed-joint leg like a goat’s landed on the ice floor.

‘It has completely gained a body…….’

Seop felt a sense of dismay and slumped down.

It was a complete Great Demon.

An existence that would bewitch the human spirit and turn the world into a sea of fire.

That thing that has existed since ancient times was definitely a more dangerous existence than the first-class monster absorbed by the Primordial Beast.

‘Ah, ah…….’

Seop and Ryeo slumped down, feeling their minds shaking dizzyingly.

Only the Mountain Keeper, who had experienced the aerial fortress, gritted his teeth and didn’t completely collapse.

-Foolish.

And, the demon opened its mouth.

-You should have cut my neck with that sword earlier.

A tongue like a sand lance protrudes and licks its lips.

Kuuuuung!

At that moment, a strange illusion unfolded in the air.

It was a wave of flesh-colored meat chunks.

The attack that rushed in with a foul smell was directed at Lee Cheol.

Thud-!

Short noise.

Beyond that, Lee Cheol was seen swinging his sword down.

-Hmm?

The Great Demon didn’t care.

After all, it was just an illusion to create fear.

The Great Demon waved his hand again.

-You humans were always embarrassed when you didn’t have your feet on the ground.

The moment those words ended.

All the objects that were touching the ground soared into the sky.

‘How can he have such power……!’

The Mountain Keeper, who was watching from behind, was shocked.

Gravity was being reversed.

Those who have reached the realm can’t help but do such feats, but it’s by no means something that can be done with a few gestures.

It was a shocking sight to get a glimpse of the Great Demon’s authority.

But at that moment, Lee Cheol’s sword finally moved.

Swish!

It was a short cutting sound.

And with just that, all the objects that were soaring into the sky slumped to the ground.

-Did you cut it down?

To cut gravity with a sword.

In the first place, is gravity something that can be cut, whether it’s a simple physical force or not?

At that moment, Lee Cheol kicked off the ground.

-……Hmm.

The Great Demon’s hand drew in the air.

The empty air cracked open.

What was seen through the air was a group of stars and planets. Endless emptiness was spread out beyond that.

Swish!

But even that was cut off by Lee Cheol’s sword.

Only then did the Great Demon, in the shape of a mixture of all kinds of beasts, feel that something was going wrong.

-What the hell are you……!

The Great Demon hurriedly floated back, pouring all sorts of power at Lee Cheol.

Mental waves, the power of gravity, ancient magic and spells, curses and the power of space.

All the attacks blocking Lee Cheol were being cut off by a simple slash.

-H, how……!

The Great Demon fleeing, Lee Cheol pursuing.

Lee Cheol, who rushed in, finally cut down all the Great Demon’s tricks and raised his sword over his head.

Upper stance.

It was a very basic swordsmanship.

The Great Demon looked at the sword.

It was neither imbued with magic nor with cursed divine power.

Just, a sword.

-Child. Stop. You don’t know. Whether you kill me or not, the time of destruction is already coming to this world. Let me show you the future. Only…….

The Great Demon’s body stiffened as he spoke.

-Ah, ah, aaaaa, ah?

“This is about it.”

I let out a breath.

“That was it.”

And, the sword was swung.

Secret technique, Muguk [a sword technique].

One Line.

A flash of light flashed.

And, Seop, Ryeo, and the Mountain Keeper lost consciousness for a very short time.

“……!”

The Mountain Keeper was the first to come to his senses.

The Mountain Keeper’s eyes contained the intense light emanating from the sword in Lee Cheol’s hand.

‘It’s being cut……!’

A miracle is happening.

The air.

The magic.

All things under the sky.

It was changing according to Lee Cheol’s will.

The Mountain Keeper could know.

If Lee Cheol wanted to, anything could disappear and anything could be created according to the power of that will.

And now.

Lee Cheol’s will was desiring the death of the wicked Great Demon.

Sreureureung!

Lee Cheol, who had completely lowered his sword, pushed the Black Night into its scabbard.

-H, how can a human body…… me…….

Tuwhack!

The Great Demon’s body began to collapse as if a sandcastle was collapsing.

The Mountain Keeper blankly stared at Lee Cheol.

-Ah, aaaa…… Child. Child of destiny. Adversary of the unfortunate causality. You don’t know. My death is just the beginning of the Great Destruction……

Persheok!

The Great Demon, who had become sand and was falling to the ground, looked up at me and muttered.

-The day the sun and sky are covered by a curtain…… The day the apostles return to heaven…… It will begin. The end of all this causality……

It was like a curse, or words that echoed like a prophecy.

‘Nonsense.’

I trampled on the head of the Great Demon who was fading away.

Thud!

And not long after, Lee Cheol arrived in front of the Mountain Keeper.

“You…….”

The Mountain Keeper looked at Lee Cheol with slightly trembling eyes.

“Why are you doing that?”

“Ah, no. Nothing.”

The Mountain Keeper just stared at Lee Cheol quietly.

‘This sly little brat…… He didn’t even use the power of the Black Night just now.’

Even so, he cut down the demon.

The Great Demon is not a Great Demon for nothing.

It cannot be cut with physical force, and it is a demon because it plunges the human spirit into hell with its wicked tongue and wields power that deviates from common sense.

‘But he cut it down.’

Even though he didn’t use the Black Night, there was nothing that could block Lee Cheol’s sword.

How is that possible?

It’s just a small blade that a small human is wielding.

‘What realm has he reached?’

This child might be able to.

Overturning the ominous signs of destruction that have begun to cover this world, and cutting down all its origins.

“But…… why do you have that expression after winning?”

The Mountain Keeper asked slyly.

I quietly stared at the spot where the Great Demon had disappeared.

“No, it’s nothing.”

The words the Great Demon left behind at the end.

Those words dug into my head.

‘It was something I had to cut down anyway. But…….’

Something was wrong.

The resurrection of the Primordial Beast is a confirmed future. I knew I couldn’t stop it.

But at least I was sure that I was breaking the signs of destruction.

I was sure that I was defeating the vanguards of the Primordial Beast, such as the Great Demon and the first-class monsters.

But now, at the moment I cut down the Great Demon, I was feeling more uncomfortable than the coolness of victory.

‘In the first place…… it was too easy than I thought. Even though I have an advantage in compatibility.’

It’s ominous.

I felt something was flowing, but I wasn’t sure what that something was.

‘No, I have to be sure.’

Interfere with the signs of destruction.

At worst, I will be able to delay the destruction, and if it goes well, I will be able to cut down its power.

I had to make a different ending from the ancient records.

‘My brothers and sisters…….’

I turned my head north.

The north where the brothers were headed.

A fight will be taking place there as well.

‘No, it won’t just be that.’

I turned my gaze and turned my gaze to the west.

Fights will be taking place all over the world against the signs of destruction.

‘We have to win. All of us.’

I took a long breath.
