Chapter 103

Chapter 1

The moment fragments and dust covered the sky, two shadows shot up into the air.

It was Yu Hwa-rin and Woon-hwi.

Yu Hwa-rin couldn’t understand this situation at all.

Although he had recently heard the news that Seol Woon-hwi had killed Su Gwang-ho of the Martial Alliance, he was ultimately a ‘martial artist’ while Yu Hwa-rin was an ‘assassin’.

Woon-hwi didn’t know what it meant for an assassin to reach the Harmony Realm.

Because he didn’t know, he had jumped up into the sky like that just now.

Crazy bastard.

He hadn’t intended to kill him, but he didn’t expect him to get on his nerves to that extent.

So he planned to completely shatter all his limbs.

If he lay bedridden for about half a year, he would deeply reflect on the arrogance that had risen to his very bones.

Yu Hwa-rin swung his arm.

Four hidden daggers he had drawn flew toward Woon-hwi.

Killing intent that had become one with nature’s energy colored the sky.

Four black streaks.

They were flying precisely toward Woon-hwi’s limbs with time delays.

And in that brief moment.

Yu Hwa-rin was certain this extremely short fight was over, while Woon-hwi thought of his next move.

Heavenly Snow Domain.

The moment Woon-hwi’s vision turned white, the four hidden daggers froze in mid-air.

“…Huh?”

Yu Hwa-rin, who made a stupid sound, noticed a bit late the existence of the hidden dagger Woon-hwi had drawn from his left waist and thrown.

Slash-!

That hidden dagger sliced long across Yu Hwa-rin’s right shoulder as it passed, and Yu Hwa-rin became furious.

How dare he.

“…You throw hidden daggers against an assassin?”

With a thud, both men landed almost simultaneously. Woon-hwi smirked and threw the sword he was holding.

Yu Hwa-rin frowned and likewise drew a hidden dagger from his back waist, then swung it.

Clang-!

In the brief moment when the hidden dagger and sword collided with sparks flying, Woon-hwi was charging in, and Yu Hwa-rin was also charging.

The shoulders of both men who had closed in on each other twitched simultaneously.

Slash-!

Slash-!

With the sound of skin being cut, they passed by each other.

A long line was drawn across Woon-hwi’s shoulder, and a line was drawn across Yu Hwa-rin’s abdomen.

Yu Hwa-rin turned his head and looked at Woon-hwi with an incomprehensible expression.

“…What is this?”

“What else? It’s the Ghost Soul Single Dagger Technique.”

“…So how do you know that…”

Seeing Woon-hwi’s foot extending toward him, Yu Hwa-rin immediately ducked his head and could see.

Where Woon-hwi’s opposite leg was stepping and which direction it was facing, and where Woon-hwi’s waist and arms were pointing.

He couldn’t understand it.

From his perspective, that posture and footwork, all of it was definitely the Ghost Soul Gate’s Ghost Soul Single Dagger Technique.

He concentrated.

If Woon-hwi’s technique was indeed the Ghost Soul Single Dagger Technique, the next attack would definitely be aimed at his forehead.

He turned his head to the side.

Whoosh-!

Woon-hwi’s hidden dagger pierced through where Yu Hwa-rin’s forehead had been just moments before. If he hadn’t turned his head, it would have made a hole. Yu Hwa-rin’s eyes scanned Woon-hwi’s body.

The direction of his feet and shoulders, and the movement of his waist.

He reflexively kicked off to the side and rotated his body greatly.

Slash-!!

Woon-hwi’s hidden dagger sliced long through the hem of Yu Hwa-rin’s long robe as it passed.

Yu Hwa-rin’s eyes trembled madly as he landed.

It’s correct.

Really… it’s the Ghost Soul Single Dagger Technique.

He immediately leaned his body back greatly.

Whoosh-!

Woon-hwi’s hidden dagger grazed past in front of his face.

Yu Hwa-rin, who rolled backward, switched the hidden dagger from his left hand to his right hand.

In this brief moment, Yu Hwa-rin captured it.

The perfect angle for his hidden dagger to penetrate Woon-hwi.

This opening was one that only assassins could see.

He didn’t know how Woon-hwi knew the Ghost Soul Single Dagger Technique, but that was as far as it went. As he said repeatedly, fights between ordinary martial artists and assassins were different. They couldn’t be the same.

They operated on different stages, and how could those who trained in killing techniques for certain death, to definitely take their opponent’s life, be the same as martial artists?

A briefly shown opening.

And the perfect move to exploit that opening.

In the close-quarters combat where assassins shined, Yu Hwa-rin was certain of victory.

His wrist moved with subtle curves.

Reverse Flow Hidden Dagger Technique.

As an assassin who had trained in the Ghost Soul Gate’s secret arts, the angle at this moment was an absolute killing point that no martial artist could avoid.

In that brief moment.

Woon-hwi’s foot lightly pushed off the ground.

He didn’t retreat backward, but came forward head-on.

Woon-hwi’s move was far beyond Yu Hwa-rin’s expectations.

It had to be.

Slash-!

The right armpit.

That vital point should have been pierced, but with Woon-hwi’s single step movement, Yu Hwa-rin’s hidden dagger grazed past Woon-hwi’s shoulder.

The trajectory of the hidden dagger had completely collapsed.

‘This is… impossible.’

This was only possible if he knew the Reverse Flow Hidden Dagger Technique.

Otherwise, this situation was impossible.

Crack-!!

Woon-hwi’s knee struck Yu Hwa-rin’s chin hard, and at almost the same speed, a hidden dagger came down.

Thud-!

It perfectly penetrated Yu Hwa-rin’s right shoulder.

Yu Hwa-rin quickly retreated, but staggered from the shock of being hit in the chin, and Woon-hwi didn’t miss that.

In this brief moment, both men’s gazes turned toward the same place.

A location two steps away for Woon-hwi, five steps away for Yu Hwa-rin.

There lay Woon-hwi’s sword that he had thrown earlier.

As if by agreement, both men moved quickly.

Woon-hwi immediately kicked off and picked up his sword, while Yu Hwa-rin grabbed Woon-hwi’s hidden dagger embedded in his right shoulder with his left hand.

As Heo Hyeon Energy dwelt in Woon-hwi’s grip and was about to transform into Ice Snow Energy, Yu Hwa-rin pulled out the hidden dagger from his shoulder.

Blood spurted up.

Through that gap, Woon-hwi’s sword was swung.

Absolute Ice Return to Void Sword.

As if containing the Han Gi of Snow Mountain in a single ray of light, that cold and merciless ray of light extended toward Yu Hwa-rin’s neck.

Woon-hwi’s movement was certainly fast.

But the difference in realm couldn’t be ignored.

Yu Hwa-rin’s eyes flashed.

He truly hadn’t intended to kill, but there was no choice.

This bastard.

Must definitely be killed.

Seven Slash Flesh Dismemberment Technique.

All his internal energy that had reached the Harmony Realm burst forth.

Nature danced according to his will. The seven killing lines drawn in the void completely erased Woon-hwi’s approaching Absolute Ice Return to Void Sword, and not stopping there, extended toward Woon-hwi beyond it.

Slash, slash, slash.

With a chilling sound, blood spurted from Woon-hwi’s body.

Both arms, right chest, left lower abdomen, and both thighs.

And.

The last killing line.

That depended on Yu Hwa-rin’s will.

The extending hidden dagger was already touching Woon-hwi’s left nape.

He just needed to slice like this.

So he sliced.

No, he tried to slice.

“…Why… won’t my hand…”

Move?

He heard it belatedly.

A crackling sound.

His eyes widened.

Yu Hwa-rin’s left arm was completely frozen.

“…How is this…?”

That was the end.

With a piercing sound, Woon-hwi’s sword penetrated Yu Hwa-rin’s throat.

Then Woon-hwi’s voice was heard.

“Do you know what I value most among Ghost Soul Gate’s martial arts?”

“Cough… ack…”

“The Seven Slash Flesh Dismemberment Technique. The seven attacks swung in an instant sequentially cut the vital parts of the human body. Especially depending on how you aim the final seventh strike, it can become a killing technique.”

In his blurring vision, Yu Hwa-rin felt it.

That he had truly been defeated and was really dying now.

And he could understand how this situation had come about.

Seven Slash Flesh Dismemberment Technique.

As Woon-hwi said, it was a very simple technique of swinging a hidden dagger seven times.

But those seven times were important.

You had to know which part of the human body to cut to cause what effect, those detailed things, to unfold the Seven Slash Flesh Dismemberment Technique.

“The Seven Slash Flesh Dismemberment Technique unfolded with your left arm, from your perspective you should have first targeted my right and left arms. In that brief moment when muscles contract, you aimed for near the heart, then the lower abdomen, and then both thighs.”

The hidden dagger went down sequentially.

An ordinary person would predict the last target to be below.

This was unavoidable.

All the nerves of the body were gradually going downward.

It’s not a matter of consciousness. It’s a matter of the unconscious.

Even if you don’t want to think that way yourself, the unconscious reacts that way.

It was an attack targeting that.

“For an assassin of Ghost Soul Gate, in such a situation the only place to aim would be the neck. Specifically the left nape.”

At some point, Woon-hwi’s eyes had turned pure white.

Heavenly Snow Domain.

Because that was unfolded, Yu Hwa-rin couldn’t cut Woon-hwi’s neck.

What this implied was simple.

Woon-hwi knew exactly where Yu Hwa-rin’s final hidden dagger would go.

He was clearly planning to endure six cuts and only block the final seventh, but there wasn’t an inch of error.

It was unbelievable.

If it was off even slightly, his head would fly off.

That…

“…You predicted it…? You… just what are you…”

“Isn’t Flesh Cut Bone Sever the basics of fighting?”

“…What crazy bastard uses Flesh Cut Bone Sever like that…”

Woon-hwi chuckled.

“I’ll send the other branch leaders to join you soon, so don’t be lonely.”

He pulled out his sword.

Cough.

He spoke briefly to the blood-spitting Yu Hwa-rin.

“Farewell.”

He swung it down.

Slash-!

Yu Hwa-rin’s head shot up into the sky.

* * *

After lightly stopping the bleeding, I shifted my gaze.

Before facing Yu Hwa-rin, I had told Cheon Pung.

To subdue the man in the black hat sitting by the window.

Where my gaze reached, a very strange scene was unfolding.

It was a scene of the blood-covered Cheon Pung, with a hidden dagger each stuck in his right shoulder, waist, and thigh, crushing a man beneath him.

“Hehe… Don’t move.”

“Let go… You bastard… Let go!”

“Oh my… Our leader told me to hold you. But why is this man squirming around so much?”

“You crazy bastard… Just… let go. I won’t run away, so let go.”

“Hey, how can I trust you? So just stay put. Ow… This hurts like hell, you damn son of a bitch. If it wasn’t for orders, I’d crack your head open, damn.”

I picked up two hidden daggers that had fallen on the floor and walked over.

Cheon Pung, sensing my presence, looked up and grinned.

“Hehe, Leader… This bastard is really a tough one.”

I chuckled.

“You did well. That’s enough now, so move aside.”

“Yes, sir.”

As soon as Cheon Pung relaxed his body, the man in the black hat kicked off from his position.

But unfortunately, he couldn’t even take two steps.

Thunk-!

Thunk-!

The two hidden daggers thrown with a time delay pierced through the man’s right thigh and left thigh respectively, so taking even two steps was quite remarkable.
