Chapter 172 : Towards the Honey Pot (8)

After parting with Yoo Jae-ha, Braha was traveling with Sa Cho-hon. And even now that he had found out Yoo Jae-ha's whereabouts again, Braha was still traveling with Sa Cho-hon.

"Aren't you going?"

"Where?"

"Since Yoo Jae-ha has appeared again, to his side."

"I'm not worried about Jae-ha. Because he's strong."

"Then, are you by my side because I'm weak? Because you're worried?"

"No! I'm with you because it's interesting."

Braha grinned and continued.

"You're planning to beat that guy, right?"

Braha, who had been watching Sa Cho-hon's every move from his side, could tell.

What Sa Cho-hon was trying to do.

At first, he thought he was moving to be recognized by the man named Black Heaven Lord. But it wasn't. The man named Sa Cho-hon was not weak enough to need to be recognized by others.

On the contrary, he was strong if anything.

"What do you think is the root of a martial artist?"

"I'm a Tianzhu person."

"What conversation am I having with a fool."

"Although I'm a Tianzhu person, if I look at it from a martial artist's perspective, isn't it to become stronger?"

In Tianzhu, you survive. There was no other choice. Because Tianzhu was a place where there was not even water to drink. And the martial world that Braha had seen, although the environment was different, the result was the same.

You survive.

The martial world, compared to Tianzhu, had an unbelievably abundant amount of water and food, but here too, death was lurking everywhere.

"You're not a complete fool. Strength. The only thing I pursue is that."

"Hehe."

"Why are you laughing? Am I funny?"

"No! Because it's fun. The Black Heaven Lord is strong."

He was originally strong, but he had become even stronger by repeating the Great Reversal of Heaven Art.

The changed appearance so far would be at least three times.

If you include the unconfirmed ones, it would be more.

And Sa Cho-hon also could have become stronger in the same way as the Black Heaven Lord, but he didn't.

That was the same for Braha.

That was the reason why Braha was traveling with Sa Cho-hon.

"Aren't you going to do the Great Reversal of Heaven Art? There's a limit with one arm."

"This is a punishment for my arrogance and a lesson from the past fight. It's a glorious scar. Why should I get rid of it?"

"As expected, you're fun! So where are we going now?"

"Do you know what the easiest way to become stronger is?"

"Training?"

"Half right, but half wrong."

"Is it right? Or is it wrong?"

"Wrong! The most primitive answer is to fight with the strong. And in this era, the strong are overflowing. It's a very excellent situation to become stronger."

"So you're going to fight with the strong! So who are you going to fight this time?"

So far, Sa Cho-hon had fought with many strong people. Braha had watched all of it from the side.

Perhaps the being at the very end of Sa Cho-hon is the Black Heaven Lord.

He wouldn't stop until he defeated the Black Heaven Lord.

This thought of Braha was immediately shattered.

"There it is. The place where the opponent we have to fight today is."

It was a shabby hut. No great presence was felt from inside.

"A few days ago, a disappearance case has been occurring in the Black Heaven. And according to the report, the time of the disappearance and the time an outsider went in and out of that place were the same."

"You can just have the kids below do this kind of chore."

"It might be a fun fight, so I can't leave it to others."

Braha shook his head and headed towards the hut.

Creak.

When he opened the door, there was no one inside.

"What? There's nothing..."

Braha's words could not continue.

Because for a moment, a huge presence was felt from under the ground.

Braha immediately kicks off the ground.

Almost at the same time, Sa Cho-hon also kicks off the ground.

The ground swells up, and something sharp soars up from inside. What was seen in the air was a sword.

Braha immediately draws the sword from his side.

Sa Cho-hon also grabs the sword hanging from the opposite side with his only arm.

The sword that came out of the ground, as if it were a living creature, found the two floating in the air and immediately chased after them.

Braha swung his sword.

The sword avoided Braha's sword and went on. Thud, Braha kicked off the wall and avoided the sword. Using that gap, Sa Cho-hon thrust his sword in as it was.

Clang!

The sword that had soared up from the ground was deflected, and someone from under the ground revealed himself.

"It's you. The culprit of the kidnapping cases so far."

"You're the first ones who haven't died from my attack."

The identity of the person hiding in the hut was Soma.

Soma was hiding his appearance here with one order from Yoo Jae-ha.

-Soma, you find out where the Black Heaven Lord is.

-Can I kill him?

-You'll probably die.

-I'm excited! Alright!

Soma, seeing Sa Cho-hon who had deflected his sword, asked.

"Are you the Black Heaven Lord?"

"I am the law enforcement officer of the Black Heaven."

"Hey! You're not the Black Heaven Lord."

Soma, this time, looked at Braha who had avoided his sword on the opposite side and asked.

"Are you the Black Heaven Lord?"

"I am the Hwangcheonju!"

At the two failures, Soma's shoulders drooped slightly.

"You're not the Black Heaven Lord either. I'll spare you two specially, so bring the Black Heaven Lord."

Sa Cho-hon felt that the opponent was quite simple-minded. He was quite similar to someone next to him. And his strength as well.

"Are you the one who did the disappearance cases so far?"

"Yeah!"

"Who are you?"

"My name is Soma! I've infiltrated this place to find the Black Heaven Lord!"

He says his name and purpose without any filtering.

Of course, that would not be the truth.

It must be clear, fake information to confuse the opponent.

"Is there someone who gave you that order?"

"Yeah!"

"Who is it?"

This question was also not asked because he wanted to hear the answer. Should I say it's a question thrown out of courtesy?

But Sa Cho-hon knew nothing about the person named Soma.

Soma does not lie.

He always moves faithfully to his instincts in any situation.

The reason he is here now is also because of the order, but purely because he wanted to.

-If you do this well, I'll fight you.

-Really?

-Yeah.

Soma said.

"Jae-ha ordered it!"

It was an unexpected answer, and a name he had not expected to hear here.

Soma asked sincerely.

"If I kill you two, will the Black Heaven Lord come next?"

Sa Cho-hon also asked sincerely.

"If I kill you, will Yoo Jae-ha come next?"

Soma could instinctively tell that the being in front of him was a strong person.

"You, are you strong?"

In this way, Sa Cho-hon was also feeling Soma's strength with his skin.

The two of them.

They rushed at each other at the same time.

* * *

The last words left by Yong Ma-pae.

And now that most of the Chaotic Heavenly Society had been eliminated, only the Black Heaven was hiding its appearance.

By integrating the information of the martial world, the most likely place where the Black Heaven would be, and although he was not reliable, Soma, who seemed to survive no matter where he was dropped, was put in first.

Just in case, he had also asked the two Heavenly Demons, so there would be no big worries.

Yoo Jae-ha was now in the imperial capital with the Sword Empress.

A huge castle is visible in front.

"I never imagined I would come here again. It's been a long time."

"I'm sorry to burden you."

"No. It is what I should do as a member of the imperial family when the country is in chaos."

The castle was under strict security.

When the Sword Empress reached the front, hundreds of Golden Guards surrounded the Sword Empress and Yoo Jae-ha at once. They aimed their long spears at the necks of the two and shouted loudly.

"Make them kneel and bind them immediately!"

The two of them obediently did as they were told.

The Golden Guards put iron chains on the hands and feet of the Sword Empress and Yoo Jae-ha.

Just then, the Golden Guards split left and right, and two men appeared.

"Hey! It's been a long time."

The two men, since they were acquaintances of Yoo Jae-ha, greeted him lightly.

The two men, the Black and White Twin Elders, frowned slightly at Yoo Jae-ha's greeting, ignored him, and shouted at the surroundings.

"Make her stand up immediately."

"Yes, sir!"

The Black and White Twin Elders said again.

"Except for that guy!"

At this, only Yoo Jae-ha was made to kneel on the ground again, and only the Sword Empress was made to stand up. The Black and White Twin Elders bowed their heads to the Sword Empress.

"We greet the noble person of the imperial family. We ask for your understanding for not being able to show proper etiquette due to the situation."

The Sword Empress answered as if it were nothing.

"I have also cast aside my imperial blood. I don't mind."

"But why have you come, Sword Empress?"

This question, unlike the one before, contained killing intent. Perhaps the reason was, as he had said before, 'due to the situation'.

"I've come to see His Majesty the Emperor."

"His Majesty is not someone who can be met by just anyone."

"Am I just anyone?"

"If you are the imperial family member Ma Hae-ryeong, you can meet him, but if you are the Sword Empress Ma Hae-ryeong, you cannot. Then I will ask. Did you come here as a member of the imperial family? Or did you come as the Sword Empress?"

That answer came not from the Sword Empress, but from another place.

"Since we all know each other's circumstances, let's not drag out time unnecessarily."

The Black and White Twin Elders did not hide their unpleasant feelings towards Yoo Jae-ha and revealed them.

"I'm not talking to you right now. And the fact that you are alive right now is thanks to His Majesty's generous heart, so shut up."

Yoo Jae-ha shrugged his shoulders and continued.

"I'm grateful for that. For saving my life. But since our lives are in danger right now, shouldn't we cooperate? Or not?"

"Seeing that you're not hesitating to make reckless remarks, it seems you're finally planning to die."

"No. I've come here to make a deal with His Majesty the Emperor."

"How dare a scum of the Demonic Cult!"

"I know that the imperial family's situation has also reached its limit. Or, do I have to say it like this for you to understand properly? That the one who holds the justification is not you, but us."

"Haa! Are you daring to commit treason?"

"I've done it once, so there's no reason I can't do it twice. As I said before."

Yoo Jae-ha looked at the Sword Empress and continued.

"Because we also have enough justification."

"You scoundrel! So that was your real purpose!"

With the fiery anger of the Black and White Twin Elders, thousands of soldiers appeared from the castle walls.

"How dare you run your mouth here!"

Yoo Jae-ha, the huge castle and the many soldiers located there.

And he sits deep inside and looks at someone.

Yoo Jae-ha's gaze, which had pierced the wall, reached the current emperor, Zhu Gaochi.

Zhu Gaochi, who was sitting on the throne, does not avoid that gaze.

And he had a look in his eyes as if he were curious about what Yoo Jae-ha was about to say.

As if that were permission, Yoo Jae-ha said.

"Your Majesty the Emperor, shall we make a deal?"

The faces of the Black and White Twin Elders crumple as if they were demons.

"All men! Draw your swords!"

As soon as the words ended, thousands of soldiers all drew their swords, spears, and bows and aimed them at Yoo Jae-ha.

Yoo Jae-ha could see that in this short moment, the soldiers were forming a huge formation.

As a result, he could not run away rashly.

The Black and White Twin Elders raise their arms. And their arms slowly begin to go down. When their arms were about halfway down, when the mouths of the Black and White Twin Elders were about to open, a low voice, not very loud but loud enough for everyone here to hear, reached everyone's ears.

"Let him in."

Yoo Jae-ha, who had stopped in the air, grabbed the arms of the Black and White Twin Elders, gently lowered them, and strode into the castle.
