Chapter 105

No, you have to ask for his opinion. Are you just going to seat him as the Geom Gak-ju, when it's obvious that he'll be risking his neck every other day?

That's absurd.

I stood there blankly, and then I felt someone approaching me.

"Congratulations. New Geom Gak-ju."

It was the Heavenly Demon.

I stared at her blankly.

"Don't you know? That I'm... an outsider."

I was about to say Player, but then I remembered the rather appropriate modifier, 'outsider,' that the Heavenly Demon had used before.

The Heavenly Demon chuckled.

"Isn't that a good thing?"

I never thought I'd hear 'the better for it' from the Heavenly Demon.

"According to your explanation, you'll be summoned back to this Martial Realm soon anyway. Even if you're summoned to another world, you'll eventually come back to the Martial Realm."

"That's true."

"And judging from past cases, it doesn't take that long, does it?"

Well, you never know.

"That's not something I can decide."

"Well, whatever. It's not like the New Cult will collapse just because you're in a vacant position. Just act as the Geom Gak-ju when you can."

Can the Geom Gak-ju position be run so haphazardly?

I nodded awkwardly.

If I just stayed still for two days, I could just shoot up to the 28th Floor Stairway waiting room.

I didn't think there was any need to increase the variables that could kill me.

"Then shall I do it? Geom Gak-ju?"

"Yeah, do it."

The Heavenly Demon put her hand on my shoulder.

"Spend the remaining two days sparring. Outside of the Time-Delayed Prison. It may not feel like you're being overloaded or affected by a Heart Demon yet, but you've done something quite dangerous. The Time-Delayed Prison isn't a place that just anyone can endure."

"Why are you telling me this now?"

You should have told me that before I entered the Time-Delayed Prison.

"Then you would have been unnecessarily scared and reluctant to enter the Time-Delayed Prison."

...I would have been a little scared, I guess.

Of course, I had already expected what the Heavenly Demon had just said, even if she hadn't told me.

There's no way just anyone could enter and endure such a high-quality training ground.

"But is it really okay? If I take on the Geom Gak-ju position, their leader will be absent all the time."

The Heavenly Demon chuckled again at my words and pointed with her chin at Ma Ha-hee, the 1st Commander, who was still kneeling on her right knee.

"She doesn't care about that. The previous Geom Gak-ju was also the strongest in terms of martial prowess, so he was definitely a Geom Gak-ju. But Ma Ha-hee took care of everything else besides martial prowess."

"I understand."

Ugh.

I don't know.

I leaned in towards the Heavenly Demon.

"But did they see me fight?"

"Didn't you know?"

"They said they would watch, but I didn't hear how they would watch."

The Heavenly Demon explained.

"All spars held on the top floor of the Sword Pavilion are displayed on the Wide Training Lake within the New Cult."

The battle scene is displayed on the lake.

That's kind of romantic.

The Heavenly Demon and I whispered.

"Then did they see my arm get cut off and then reappear?"

"Yes, they saw that."

"...Was there any reaction like, 'Demonic Art' or something?"

The Heavenly Demon started laughing a little louder now.

"Hehe, you idiot. This is the Demonic Cult, so it's normal for Demonic Art to appear, isn't it?"

This person doesn't try to maintain a serious demeanor in front of their subordinates.

But judging from the fact that the Warriors weren't even smiling, it seemed that they still felt the weight of the Heavenly Demon, even when she was like this.

"I twisted what you told me a little bit and explained it. That you're a guy who recovers his body when the time comes during a fight."

That sounds a little strange.

The part that I explained was about 'experience points' and levels.

The Heavenly Demon was quite interested in my explanation.

"Well, there are some Blood Demon Art users who are like that, so it's not that strange."

I had no intention of continuing to spar immediately after a life-or-death battle with a Rank 7 Intermediate.

I got some treatment from ‍‍‌‌⁠​​⁠‌​​‍​​‍​‌​⁠‍‌‍⁠⁠‌⁠‌‍‌‍‌‌‌‍⁠​‌​‌​‌‍‌‌‌⁠‍​​‌‍⁠‌‌⁠⁠a physician within the New Cult.

And entered the building that the Heavenly Demon had given me as the preliminary Geom Gak-ju building.

The top floor of the Sword Pavilion.

But it wasn't a 10-story building, but a 5-story temporary building.

As I went straight up to the top floor without hesitation, the two people who followed me up in a fluster were Ma Ha-hee and Neung Yang-cheon.

"Oh, go back down."

I waved my hand.

"Yes?"

Ma Ha-hee widened her eyes and asked back.

"I want to be alone for a while. You can tell me about the Sword Pavilion later."

"...I understand. Each Lord."

Ma Ha-hee nodded obediently.

Neung Yang-cheon, who was next to her, was just bowing his head.

He had acted a little harshly when he was guiding me before the battle with the former Geom Gak-ju, but now that I had become the Geom Gak-ju, his eyes were kind.

Suddenly, a clear voice came from behind.

"Han Yoo-seong, the new Geom Gak-ju! You can do it, Each Lord! You can dominate the world with your sword!"

I turned my head to see who was spouting such novel nonsense, and it was one of the people I had seen earlier.

[NPC - Myodooh, 2nd Commander of the Sword Pavilion, Rank 6]

She was the woman whose name I thought was unique when I glanced at it earlier.

But her mentality is also a bit unique.

Of course, I just ignored those words.

"Yes, go down."

"Wa, wait a moment-!"

I saw someone grabbing Myodooh's shoulder as she seemed to want to say something more.

It was Neung Yang-cheon.

"Didn't he order you to go down?"

Neung Yang-cheon led Myodooh away as if he was dragging her.

Finally, Ma Ha-hee bowed deeply and disappeared.

I wonder if they'll feel like I'm causing trouble by just sending them away like this.

But I couldn't help it.

And well, can't I be a little bossy?

I think I'm in a position to do so.

"Ugh."

I groaned and lay down on the bed.

My body became comfortable.

To the point where my mind felt cozy.

It's very comfortable.

"The quality is good...."

It's perfect for Gallery Browsing.

Thud!

I opened my Inventory and held the Transcender Gallery Terminal in my hand.

As soon as I entered, the posts that were visible were actively discussing my death.

Title: Our Climber-kun didn't die, did he?? I believe a post will be uploaded....

Author: ㅇㅇ

Write a post as soon as you come back alive. Okay?

Looking at the author part, it was a post written by an Easy or Normal senior.

How did he know I was lying down?

That's what I'm saying.

But I could tolerate this level of curse.

The speck of Dragon Blood that had completely permeated my body was helping me in many ways.

Hmm.

That's correct.

If I hadn't rolled around in the Time-Delayed Prison, I wouldn't have been able to complete my Domain.

I wouldn't have learned the Martial arts to counter the Geom Gak-ju's various attacks.

I reviewed the battle with Geom Gak-ju Pyo Wi-heon.

He was a monstrous human.

I couldn't deny that my victory was lucky.

If the Unique Domain I faced hadn't been related to 'swords,' I wouldn't have been able to turn the tables like that.

Anyway, I'm glad I survived.

I uploaded a post with a video of the battle with the Geom Gak-ju.

The video showed the beginning to the end of the battle. And it ended right after the Heavenly Demon, who had rushed in behind the Warriors of the Sword ‍‍‌‌⁠​​⁠‌​​‍​​‍​‌​⁠‍‌‍⁠⁠‌⁠‌‍‌‍‌‌‌‍⁠​‌​‌​‌‍‌‌‌⁠‍​​‌‍⁠‌‌⁠⁠Pavilion, threw out a word.

Title: I'm alive.

Rank 7 Intermediate was really strong. I almost died.

Dang Ha-yeon.

Dang Ha-yeon, who was also active in the Transcendent Gallery under the same nickname as her real name, leaned back in her chair.

"Oh... It's hard to manage the family, I tell you...."

Dang Ha-yeon was one of the very rare beings whose actual speech and chat were the same.

A faint light sprouted in Dang Ha-yeon's green eyes.

"...Um! By this time, Han Yoo-seong-nim should have survived and uploaded a post, I tell you!"

Swish!

Her eyes shining, she opened the drawer.

She reached out her right hand towards the Transcendent Gallery Terminal.

The moment she was about to grab the Terminal.

"......!"

Dang Ha-yeon suddenly turned her head back with a chill running up her spine.

Two eyes were looking at her from beyond the window.

"You've finished all your work, right? Sister...?"

Dang Ha-yeon covered her mouth with both hands at her younger sister Dang Yeoryeong's words.

Then, she took her hands away from her mouth again.

"Of course, I've finished all my work, I tell you!"

"But why are you so flustered?"

"I can't help but be flustered when you stare at me like that, I tell you!"

Dang Ha-yeon shook off her younger sister's gaze and picked up the Transcendent Gallery Terminal.

She was going to take a well-deserved rest because she had fulfilled her duties.

Dang Ha-yeon continued to move her hands with sparkling eyes.

Dang Yeoryeong couldn't understand why her sister was so excited and moving her hands.

It was because Dang Yeoryeong had not experienced the .

But since her sister was grinning and staring so intently at the air, she decided to leave her alone for now.

It was true that Dang Ha-yeon was going through a lot of hardships as the head of the Dang family.

Dang Ha-yeon was already focused on the large square window floating in front of her.

Han Yuseong was advancing.

Towards a red-haired man who had a stronger martial prowess than Han Yuseong at a glance.

The two men's swords rushed towards each other.

Clearly, Han Yuseong was overwhelmingly pushed back at the beginning.

But after a white aura floated around Han Yuseong's body, his movements improved rapidly.

Sword Realm.

Han Yuseong's Domain.

The name flowed out of her mouth.

Dang Ha-yeon could infer the meaning of the Domain's name.

"Is he going to see through all swords, I tell you...."

The Sword Path that was being cut in.

And swordsmanship itself.

Whether it's the enemy or himself.

It seemed to be a Domain with the will to see through all 'swords' within the 'Sword Realm.'

Naturally, there is also a desire to significantly increase the power of his own Sword Path.

"It's such an arrogant and greedy Domain, I tell you...."

But because it was arrogant and greedy, a Rank 6 was able to take the life of a Rank 7 Intermediate.

'Domain' cannot win against 'Unique Domain.'

That's the established theory.

There have been precedents where a Rank 7 Initial Order's Unique Domain has won against a Rank 7 Peak Order's Unique Domain.

But a 'Domain' mocking and completely reversing the situation by swallowing a 'Unique Domain' like that. At least, she had never seen it before.

The element of luck, which can be called compatibility, certainly played a role.

If the Unique Domain of the now former Geom Gak-ju Pyo Wi-heon had not been 'Sword Bell Underworld Palace Path.'

If the opponent had been a Warrior who used a spear instead of a swordsman, or even a Fist Pavilion user, the effect of 'Sword Realm' would not have been so maximized.

But even taking that into account.

"He's a crazy talent, I tell you...."

Dang Ha-yeon muttered that and checked the comments section.

As expected, others were writing the same opinions as her in the comments.

The Sword of Light did not leave a comment saying he highly recommended it.

Dang Ha-yeon also thought the Sword of Light was amazing again.

It was the Sword of Light and the Heavenly Demon who strongly insisted on creating a Domain that could exploit the loopholes in the Unique Domain while spending time in the Time-Delayed Prison.

The Dragon King recognized both the Dragon Slayer Sword 12th Form and 13th Form as if he had been hit before.

Dang Ha-yeon typed on the keyboard.
