Chapter 271
271: Hmm? A Designated Request? How Coincidental(1)
* * *
No matter that the training ground was located within the Dragon-Human Clan Building, the noise and vibrations emanating from within were so extraordinary that one could sense them even from a distance.
Ku————oom!
With each step, a resonant rumble rippled outward in all directions.
The training ground echoed with footfalls that continued like skipping stones across water.
Kuuoom!
Boom! Kuoom!
Two figures moved swiftly across the training ground, their footwork leaving deep impressions as if carving into the very earth, but soon they exhausted themselves and came to a halt, breathing heavily.
“Huff, huff.”
“Haah, haah.”
It was none other than Jiyuchan and Hezway who had stopped, lost in deep contemplation.
The interpretation that Dohyun had taught them was flawless, yet the process of truly mastering it themselves proved remarkably difficult.
Naturally, it could be no other way.
The Great Path Without Flaw was a movement technique where, just as Dohyun employed it, one carved out a flawless great path and then walked their own footwork along that path.
In essence, it was a technique that elevated existing movement methods to even greater heights.
It was a fearsome technique capable of transforming even A-rank movement methods into S+ grade, and its complexity was beyond description.
“Haah, I suspected it was an extraordinary technique, but it’s far more intricate than I imagined.”
“Huff, indeed.”
Jiyuchan could only nod in agreement with Hezway’s words.
To be precise, both of them could manage to carve out the path to some extent. But how to truly make that vast great path their own—that was the genuinely difficult part.
Simply coloring it wasn’t difficult, but doing so would create flaws in the painstakingly carved great path, and an imperfect path would crumble quickly.
This was the most intricate and challenging aspect of this technique.
It was then.
“By the way, did you feel that just now?”
“Dohyun?”
This time, Hezway nodded at Jiyuchan’s words. Dohyun’s aura had suddenly surged forth brilliantly, then moved swiftly, becoming completely imperceptible within the building.
While none of the Overseer Party members were unaware of Dohyun’s stealth, the fact that it had become this undetectable meant he had left the building.
They were wondering what could have caused Dohyun to leave when—
“You can’t just brutishly stomp your feet and call it a path.”
Suddenly, advice came from nowhere.
When Hezway and Jiyuchan turned their heads at that voice, Dohyun—who had been imperceptible until moments ago—was now standing in the training ground.
Rather than wondering when he had arrived, they wanted to greet him for offering guidance, but Dohyun’s exacting nature remained unchanged.
“First, Jiyuchan, you need to envision the gold and platinum you manipulate, and create a path through them. You must carve the great path while thinking of a golden path or a platinum path.”
“Ah.”
At Dohyun’s words, Jiyuchan grasped the direction somewhat and closed his eyes as if meditating, then began walking again.
As he took his first step to create the great path, Dohyun opened his mouth toward Hezway as well.
“Hezway, your Radiant Dragon Spear is a spear technique derived from brilliant flashing light, where the spear blade shoots forth like light or strikes like light—can you say your current movements embody that radiance?”
“Ah!!!”
From Dohyun’s casual remark, Hezway too gained profound insight.
Radiant Dragon Spear.
A spear of the dragon wrapped in radiant light—a technique that pierced through all things as the brilliant spear flashed like light itself, yet the problem was forgetting that and simply trying to build the foundation first.
Light is free. Though it begins at a single point, it becomes a light source that can shoot in all directions, step everywhere, and thrust the spear to every place.
That is radiance.
Thus, Hezway grasped this truth and, like Jiyuchan, closed his eyes gently and recalled the mental imagery within himself.
He saw the bright evening glow rising, and recalling the Radiant Dragon Spear that harmonized perfectly with that glow, Hezway took his step forward.
Then.
—————!
As his foot touched the ground, light flashed brilliantly, and Hezway shot forward dozens of meters in a single bound according to his will, and behind him, Jiyuchan.
Fzzzzzzzzzz———!!!
Moving as if wrapped in pure white lightning, scattering brilliant platinum radiance in all directions, sliding across the polished road like a gliding motion.
Though both had begun with the same foundational technique, seeing how their respective paths and movements differed so greatly, Dohyun nodded and spoke.
“That’s it! That’s how you do it.”
Hezway and Jiyuchan blinked at the fact that even the same technique could manifest so differently, and Dohyun finally felt satisfied.
And as Dohyun looked at the two of them, he continued.
“Though it might be because you don’t have inner energy, there are some awkward parts in both of you.”
“Inner energy?”
At Dohyun’s words, Jiyuchan’s eyes sparkled as he looked at Dohyun, wondering if he meant that thing he knew about, and Dohyun thought as he observed Jiyuchan.
‘So he’s quite the martial arts enthusiast, huh?’
Around the time Dohyun was thinking this, Hezway murmured thoughtfully in response to Dohyun’s words.
“Hmm, I’ve heard of it. Are you referring to that same thing as the mana cultivation method that only those with talent in Hwadaejuk use?”
“Yeah, exactly right.”
“Then I’m fine.”
“Because of the Dragon Heart?”
The moment Hezway said that, Dohyun immediately asked back, and Hezway, already knowing that Dohyun understood the concept of Yongje, nodded quietly without much surprise.
However.
“While creating a Dragon Heart, you can also create inner energy.”
“What, what!?”
This time, even Hezway couldn’t help but be shocked, and Dohyun grinned as if he’d expected as much. It was still early, but he was already thinking of creating heart methods for those two.
Of course, there were things needed for that.
After completing the request from the Heavenly Martial Alliance, he would need to study more martial techniques.
And.
‘I should tell them about the attack and surveillance I received this time too.’
Just as Dohyun was about to speak, the training ground door opened and a member of the Dragon Race Guide Party appeared with a bowed head.
Wondering what the matter was, everyone—Dohyun, Jiyuchan, and Hezway—turned their heads.
The Dragon-human who entered bowed and spoke to them.
“A message has arrived from the Heavenly Martial Alliance.”
Just as they thought even tigers come when you speak of them, so too did the Heavenly Martial Alliance.
“It seems a designated request has come for the Overseer Party this time.”
“A designated request?”
“For us?”
While Jiyuchan and Hezway tilted their heads in confusion, Dohyun alone was smirking to himself.
We’d just caught those surveillance agents, and now a designated request comes in? How convenient.
Quite the coincidence, wasn’t it?
Dohyun muttered to himself with that thought.
“Then shall we head to the Heavenly Martial Alliance and hear what they have to say?”
Of course, while saying that, his mind was elsewhere entirely.
‘I wonder what trap the Elves have set up.’
Naturally, everything was already in the palm of his hand.
* * *
A secret underground chamber in a B-Rank Safe Zone.
Only a hologram communication device—a concentrated embodiment of magitech that would normally be difficult to operate—glowed quietly. How much time had passed like this?
Sounds laden with static crackled one by one, and figures appeared on the hologram. Five of them.
Each was shrouded in shadow, revealing only silhouettes whose identities remained unknown, yet those within moved as if recognizing one another.
Once all five holograms were activated, they began conversing remotely with each other.
-Agent No. 9 is dead.
-Bloodkin shouldn’t have died so easily.
-Does that mean they’re that skilled?
-Agent No. 3, wasn’t Agent No. 9 under your division?
-Correct. The last report indicated they were heading toward Atlas.
Bloodkin, the one called Agent No. 9 who had been brutally slaughtered by Dohyun, became the subject of their discussion.
Within the secretive meeting of the Divine Assassin Squad.
They too seemed unable to fully grasp the situation, still grasping at straws.
They couldn’t understand how Agent No. 9 had died.
However.
-The last request came from the pointy-ears.
-What was the content?
-They wanted to eliminate an attack party that included whoever captured Davy Jones—possibly the one who opened Transcendence.
-Ah, you mean that C-rank monster?
-Correct.
-You’re talking about the 『Transcendence Repository』 that just opened.
-Coincidentally, headquarters mentioned something similar.
Knowing the Elves were the clients and aware of their final destination, it would be simple enough to pursue them at this point.
However.
-Should we continue with this request?
-No, Agent No. 9 was our last line. If Agent No. 9 fell, at minimum someone ranked No. 6 or higher would need to step in, but Agent No. 6 is occupied, and if anyone higher… is there anyone among us willing to take it on?
-…. -…. -…. -….
As the shadow cast by the hologram at the forefront spoke, all four remaining figures fell silent.
Moreover, even if they’d already received an advance payment, with Agent No. 9 already fallen, sharing the information they’d gathered so far would be nothing but a loss.
Above all else.
-If we involve ourselves any further, even we might face interference from the Draxion Dimension.
-Right, wasn’t it said that the princess of the Draxion Dimension, one of the Golden Generation, is involved?
-We could kill her if we wanted, but having any of us move for this amount of money doesn’t make financial sense.
-That’s true.
-Then we’ll settle for just passing on the information as an advance payment.
Everyone agreed with Agent No. 1’s summary of the request.
However.
-Those pointy-eared bastards don’t seem like they’ll give up, so I’m curious how they’ll act once we pass on the information.
-The situation is already tense because of Agent No. 9.
-They might not even show up in the first place.
-Definitely.
-Then let’s stop spouting useless talk here and end this meeting.
With those words, the meeting where the B-Rank Branch leaders of the Divine Assassin Squad had been chattering came to an end.
I was curious how the pointy-eared ones—the Elves—would respond, but that wasn’t my concern anymore.
It had already left my hands.
As Agent No. 1 was leaving his seat, something suddenly occurred to him.
‘Didn’t the Dragon-kin Party join the Heavenly Martial Alliance this time?’
He wondered if the pointy-eared bastards might try to make a designated request through the Heavenly Martial Alliance, but he let out a soft laugh and shook his head.
‘They’re not complete idiots, so that can’t be it.’
The Dragon-kin, already on high alert, wouldn’t willingly step forward to accept a designated request—it was an obvious blunder even with minimal thought, so surely the pointy-eared ones wouldn’t be foolish enough to do that either.
After Agent No. 1 passed the information to the Elves who had taken the request, he heard something unbelievable.
“Tsk, I expected better from the Divine Assassin Squad, but I’m thoroughly disappointed. Since things have come to this, we’ll have to set a trap through the Heavenly Martial Alliance with a designated request.”
“…?”
Agent No. 1 wondered if this Elf was actually a complete idiot, but before even a day had passed since handing over the information, he heard something truly unbelievable from the Elf.
-Once we catch these bastards, if the Divine Assassin Squad joins in, we’ll pay the remaining balance.
‘??????’
What the hell? What’s going on?
