Love Ballad of the Tyrant King Chapter 260 : Young-gi, Reveals

Chapter 260: Young-gi, Reveals

Swish swish swish swish!

Mujin, who had cut down a succession of enemies lunging from the front, soared into the air.

Sword Qi erupted from his twin swords. As the Sword Qi swept through the surroundings, a dozen Demonic Humans were cut down and collapsed.

With those Demonic Humans gone, the vicinity was mostly cleared.

The front of this manor was being handled by the Divine Sword Regint, and the rear was being cleared by the Iron Cavalry Regint. Of course, not all personnel had been deployed.

Because a large-scale movent would be noticed by the opponent, only elite warriors from the Divine Sword Regint and the Iron Cavalry Regint were specifically selected to co. Their numbers were one hundred each.

Those guarding the outside of the manor were not ordinary martial artists. They were quite skilled, but they were not a force capable of withstanding the combined attack of the Divine Sword Regint and the Iron Cavalry Regint.

The problem was that the Demonic Humans who were outside would eventually return. Since this was the residence where the Cult Leader was hiding, the most elite units would be stationed nearby.

It would be good if Lee Jaseung finished the job before they arrived, but if not, they would have to engage in an all-out war with them. Since neither the Divine Sword Regint nor the Iron Cavalry Regint had brought all their forces, an all-out war was a situation to be avoided if possible.

Rumbleeeee.

Just then, about twenty warriors of the Iron Cavalry Regint ca galloping on horseback.

The warhorses used by the Iron Cavalry Regint were of excellent bloodlines. They were strong and intelligent, understanding their masters' words well. Furthermore, warhorses with a lot of actual combat experience moved on their own according to the master's will.

The warhorses were clad in iron armor.

In the case of ordinary iron cavalry units, the armor is made of iron. This is to protect the life of the horse from flying swords and blades, especially from the damage of arrows.

However, the armor of the Black Way Alliance Iron Cavalry was not made of iron. It was armor made by layering several sheets of specially treated leather.

Because the weight of the armor was light, they could move faster and further. Making it look like iron armor was rely to provide a visual effect.

Ma Young-gi’s horse was much larger in stature, like a Red Hare. Moreover, the sight of Ma Young-gi mounted with armor and a helt made him look terrifyingly strong. The eccentric and quirky appearance he usually showed was nowhere to be found.

“We have cleared everything in the rear.”

Mujin nodded his head once with an expression of approval.

The gazes of the two n turned toward the building.

Quite so ti had passed since Lee Jaseung entered. However, no one was coming out of there yet.

“No news is good news.”

Ma Young-gi smirked at Mujin’s words. He was right. If sothing had happened to Lee Jaseung, that door would open and Yao Hong and his Demonic subordinates would walk out.

What if such a situation unfolded? This day would beco the day they died.

Ma Young-gi glanced at Mujin.

To die on the sa day and at the sa hour as Mujin?

He thought it wasn't such a bad idea.

“Do you rember?”

“Rember what?”

“When you recruited , you visited three tis, did you not?”

“Hahahaha. Of course I rember. Is Woobin not still upset that the 'three visits to the cottage' weren't for him?”

Ma Young-gi gave a sheepish smile.

“Do you know why I was away from my seat back then?”

Without waiting for Mujin’s answer, Ma Young-gi continued.

“I was out on an investigation. There was a big job. I was verifying information that the Wind and Cloud Escort Agency was transporting a hundred units of gold. I was planning to intercept it.”

Mujin looked at Ma Young-gi with a look of surprise. This was the first ti he had heard this story from Ma Young-gi.

Ma Young-gi continued speaking calmly, as if making a confession.

“You visited three tis, , who was away just to commit a robbery.”

“Was it so?”

“Yes. Damnably so.”

Regret and apology were evident in Ma Young-gi’s words.

Mujin spoke with a deepened gaze.

“The Alliance Leader must have known that fact.”

“Would he have?”

“Obviously. And he must have also known that you could change into soone this excellent. That you possessed such a foundation. Our Lord is a person who sees what we cannot see.”

“If I had not t our Lord... I would have beco a horse thief. I would have lived stealing other people's money and then been buried sowhere in the wasteland.”

“I would have lived even more miserably.”

Mujin was sincere. Because it was a ti when things were truly a ss.

“I was really angry.”

At the world. At himself.

“It was when we were still young after all.”

Nodding his head, Mujin suddenly had a thought.

That perhaps the Lee Jaseung of that ti had also been angry. Was that not why he tried to overturn the world and seize it?

It was then. A subordinate ran over and reported quickly.

“It is the enemy.”

When Mujin and Ma Young-gi turned around, they saw hundreds of horses galloping in the distance, kicking up dust.

“According to the scout's report, it is the Soul Phantom Army.”

The Soul Phantom Army was an elite unit of the Demonic Cult. As a unit directly under the Demonic Cult Leader, their skill was known to be great. It was an organization on par with the Divine Sword Regint or the Iron Cavalry Regint.

“Was the number of the Soul Phantom Army three hundred?”

“Yes, that is correct.”

In contrast, this side did not even reach two hundred. Two hundred had co, but there were those who had died or been injured.

Ma Young-gi said to an Iron Cavalry subordinate standing nearby.

“Leave only the minimum number of personnel and call everyone else here.”

“Yes.”

The warrior rode his horse toward the back garden, and soon eighty warriors of the Iron Cavalry Regint ca there. The Divine Sword warriors were seventy-five.

This side was one hundred fifty, the opponent was three hundred. It was almost double the number.

However, not a single Black Way Alliance warrior there felt fear.

Mujin spoke while looking at his subordinates.

“They are enemies we must sweep away anyway. Is everyone ready?”

“Yes!”

This ti, Ma Young-gi spoke to his subordinates.

“We will take the lead!”

Again, a thunderous answer flowed out.

Mujin and Ma Young-gi faced each other and nodded their heads once.

Rumbleeeeeee!

The Iron Cavalry Regint took the lead, followed by the Divine Sword Regint.

* * *

Yao Hong was rely watching.

He must surely be considering the possibility of losing Sword God.

But nevertheless, he did not step in.

Soone might think it was courtesy toward a warrior like Sword God, but Lee Jaseung did not think so.

It must be courtesy toward his own life.

Yao Hong had already shown disappointing behavior several tis.

Lee Jaseung said to the Sword God.

“You have no luck with masters.”

“What do you an by that?”

“Is your master not trying to find out my skill right now by sacrificing you?”

“He is not such a person.”

“You have no eye for people either.”

The Sword God did not give any answer to Lee Jaseung’s cynical words.

He had been with Yao Hong for a long ti. Even if Lee Jaseung did not say it, he knew well what kind of person he was. That he was a person who would use him as a sacrificial pawn ten tis over for the sake of his own life and power.

“What can be done? Bad luck is my luck, and my eye for people is my eye.”

While saying that, Sword God slowly drew his sword. It had been a truly long ti since he drew his sword first when facing soone.

As Sword God drew his sword, his presence changed completely.

He was a man called a god when it ca to the sword.

The mont one made a mistake, they would die. Of course, this applied to Sword God as well. If he was the god of the sword, Lee Jaseung was the god of the flying dagger and the god of physical arts.

Lee Jaseung gripped Asura tightly with a cautious mind.

The one who attacked first was Sword God.

Because he had personally seen Lee Jaseung’s skill, he did not let down his guard at all.

He displayed the maximum skill he was capable of.

Swish, swish, swish, swish!

The sword lunged by Sword God quickly stabbed at Lee Jaseung. The places he aid for were the heart and the neck.

Places where he could neutralize the opponent in a single move.

Asura deflected the sword of Sword God that flew in for the fifth ti.

Clang! A tallic sound echoed through the room.

Sword God looked down at his trembling sword. It was only a single exchange, but Sword God could tell. Just how pure and deep the inner Qi contained in that small dagger of the opponent was.

Fear and joy surged simultaneously. He was a warrior who loved fighting by nature. He enjoyed the tension when facing a strong person, and his was a life lived for the pleasure of defeating an opponent.

Sword God looked at Lee Jaseung and grinned.

On the other hand, Lee Jaseung did not reveal any emotion. He was currently engaged in a three-on-one fight.

Sword God before his eyes.

Yao Hong behind him.

And the invisible hidden person.

While facing Sword God, Lee Jaseung had to keep in mind a surprise attack from Yao Hong or the hidden person. Because it was a foolish thing to expect a warrior's courtesy from a villain like Yao Hong.

However, there was one reason to expect that the two would not easily intervene. It was that Yao Hong was a man who would more than likely sacrifice Sword God just to find out his opponent's weakness.

Sword God’s attack flew in again.

As if an engine had been started, Sword God’s sword beca faster and faster.

Swish swish swish swish swish swish swish swish swish!

Asura deflected Sword God’s sword like crazy.

Clang clang clang clang clang clang clang clang clang!

It was an attack and defense where a montary mistake would lead to death.

Each move of Sword God was powerful yet elegant. Lee Jaseung had fought many warriors using swords until now, but he had never seen swordsmanship with such deep expertise.

The opponent was the real deal.

He could guarantee it. If it were his skill from when he first took over the Black Way Alliance, he would have died by this sword.

Sword God’s sword beca even faster.

It was so fast that it gave the illusion of dozens of swords stabbing at once.

However, because it was a succession of stabs, there was clearly a minute difference in speed, and Lee Jaseung was accurately blocking every attack.

“Haaaaaap!”

A long shout erupted from Sword God’s mouth. Using that as a signal, the attack reached its extre.

Swish swish swish swish swish swish swish swish swish swish swish swish!

Clang clang clang clang clang clang clang clang clang clang clang clang!

All that could be seen were the sword lights created by the two, and all that could be heard was the sound of Asura and Sword God’s sword clashing.

And as all beginnings have an end.

The fastest attack Sword God could produce flew toward Lee Jaseung’s heart.

Swisssssssssssh!

Slice! Thud!

The sound of flesh being cut was inevitably followed by the sound of soone collapsing.

Soon, silence found that place.

The one who collapsed was Sword God. The blood flowing from his neck was spreading in all directions.

Even when his sword missed and Asura, flying back in reverse, cut through his neck, he did not regret it. Because it was a match where he had poured out his everything.

Lee Jaseung’s gaze turned toward Sword God’s corpse. He had not looked when Sa Nogun or the Ghost Soldiers died.

But Sword God was different from them. Just by looking at the person and receiving the sword, he could tell how the opponent had lived.

Regardless of being a Demonic Human, he was an excellent warrior.

Lee Jaseung stared at Yao Hong.

It was such a waste for him to die as that man's subordinate. He felt as if he would be nauseated by that extre selfishness that simply allowed such an excellent subordinate to die.

Lee Jaseung spoke with a dry, emotionless voice.

“Now it is your turn.”
