Chapter 141
Absolute Necromancer Chapter 141
Kyeong-Hoon Choi.
The moment I saw him, I felt a shock as if lightning had struck my head.
‘…Why is that guy here?’
An unimaginable guy appeared in an unexpected place.
Of course, I planned to find a way to contact him while heading to ‘Musou’ and to hone my close combat skills in ‘Musou”s ‘Musou’.
However, I did not expect that Choi Kyung-hoon himself was here.
No, it’s not that it wasn’t unexpected, it was natural that it couldn’t be expected.
There was at least no one in this tower who could explain why a being who was supposed to be conducting a raid on the ridiculous 800th floor beyond the 600th floor was in the main building of the guild, ‘Musou’, located on the 100th floor.
It was the same for me too.
So, looking slightly surprised, I adjusted my mask and went to the side of Hendrick, who was halfway on the road, and asked.
“Are you okay?”
“…Is that guy your friend you were talking about?”
“Yes, but…I don’t know why I’m here.”
“It just became clear with one blow. “At least right now, I can’t beat that guy.”
“It looks like it.”
The attack that Choi Kyung-hoon used to attack Hendrick just now is at best the first technique, the dragon smashing, which is an enhanced version of the regime-wielding technique.
Of course, Hendrick received some recognition from Choi Kyung-hoon in that it was an enhanced technique rather than a general technique, but there were still many other techniques.
‘If you think about the fact that there are about 9 more skills, and that they become stronger the further you go…It’s definitely impossible for now.’
A total of 10 skills.
At most, it can be said to be 10, but considering the enhanced version, it is safe to say there are 20.
In particular, the level of completion of each piece was very high, and it is unclear how much further it was strengthened and supplemented in the 10 years that passed while I was away.
That’s why I left the others behind and went out on my own.
“Musin Choi Gyeong-hoon.”
“…Do you know me? Ah, now that I think about it, I remember seeing that mask. “The instructors said that there is a climber causing a stir at the tower these days.”
I muttered as I looked at my old friend who greeted me with a grumpy attitude.
“The urinary bladder has grown so much, it’s blocking my path.”
“…what?”
I didn’t pay any attention to Choi Kyung-hoon’s frowning grimace with his eyebrows drawn together.
“I can still clearly see you at the age of 5, running away to the bathroom crying when the teacher caught you after urinating in kindergarten. Are you going to deny that?”
“…you! “You bastard, how did you do that!!!”
Choi Gyeong-hoon, whose intimidating appearance from before had completely disappeared, turned red and ran towards me.
Because I was embarrassed, my posture was very disturbed, but the power of the unmanned person on the 800th floor brought out the best results even in such a disheveled posture.
“…Choi Kyeong-Hoon Ryu Chapter 2, front kick!”
It was not a reinforcement technology.
I just stretched out my foot strongly and the front kick was directed at me.
However, even if it was a general technique, its strength did not go anywhere.
The moment I caught sight of the sky-splitting front kick and toes, I responded accordingly.
“Chapter 4 of Choi Gyeong-hun’s Ryu.”
“…what?”
Choi Gyeong-hoon foolishly asked back when he saw me spitting out the name of his technology, but there was no answer.
“Spin kick.”
Only my voice as I finished the technical name rang hollowly.
Tsk-!
My roundhouse kick, targeting the side of Choi Kyung-hoon’s front kick, struck Choi Kyung-hoon’s leg and made a loud noise.
Unfortunately, the damage was on my side.
“…Is it slightly cracked?”
Although it was clearly a perfect counter, the price of putting a leg against Choi Kyung-hoon’s body harder than steel was terrible.
The cracked leg was recovering quickly, but it was not at a level where it could be used in battle right away.
As I tried to hide my numb leg and pretended to be calm, Choi Kyung-hoon, who backed away, frowned and asked me back.
“To my past, to my skills. “Who are you?”
It’s like a tiger trying to eat a rabbit and not only getting hit in the face by the rabbit, but also knowing about its past.
Even Choi Kyung-hoon, who possessed superhuman mental strength, could not help but be slightly shaken.
To Choi Kyung-hoon’s question, I shook my head and answered.
“I don’t think it’s something to say here, but can we go in and talk about it?”
Roaring Roaring-
-what? Is it a fight?
-Fighting in front of a peerless…. But who is that person?
-I know it’s a ghost, but….
Seeing the number of people flocking in, Choi Gyeong-hoon clicked his tongue and pressed the hood of his field jacket down.
“Tsk, come in first. You can’t make such a fuss inside anyway. I also need to know who you learned the skills you know from. “If you don’t want people to talk about you, don’t come in, but if you don’t mind, come in.”
Jumble-jump. After finishing what I had to say, I followed behind Choi Gyeong-hoon as he walked into the peerless military palace with his broad back.
Choi Kyeong-hoon, who was ahead of me, looked at me with a bewildered expression as he saw me move without even thinking deeply, meaningless when he told me to come in if you don’t mind losing everything.
“…What the hell are you doing?”
“He knows you very well.”
“…Someone comes to mind. A guy who knew me well enough to be annoying.
“He’s an inferior guy, but we have an uncanny resemblance to him.”
You’re quick to notice.
Even though I only revealed a little about myself, I saw Choi Kyung-hoon immediately doubting my identity, so I patted him on the shoulder and grinned.
It was a smile that wouldn’t be visible under the mask anyway, but I didn’t care.
“Details inside.”
“…Damn it, guys. “Welcome as a guest!”
Choi Gyeong-hoon was shouting harshly at the officials who were staring at us as we entered the military building.
“yes!”
“You don’t mind if other guys get hurt, right?”
“Unfortunately, my colleagues are not weak enough to be defeated by kids like that.”
“Good, go touch it and come back.”
“yes!”
With a loud reply, officials rushed towards Hendrick, Haru, and Miho who were following behind me.
Craddangtangtang!
“oh…Brother?”
“Welcoming guests is also grand.”
“If you come near Miho, I will hit you.”
Various weapons and equipment inside the military building fell down, making a loud noise. As a result, leaving Ha-ryu’s panicked voice and Hendrick’s and Miho’s voices behind, I headed towards Choi Kyeong-hoon’s room.
“It will be a big help. “The kids here are not bad as far as technical perfection is concerned.”
“It’s not that it’s bad, it’s the best. “I have no eyes to see.”
“I’m not satisfied with this because I have a high level of perspective.”
“You annoying guy.”
“Don’t forget that it’s the same for you too. “You don’t think it’s normal to assign a bunch of government officials to a fight with a visiting guest, do you?”
“Because you are an intruder, not a guest.”
Choi Kyung-hoon was busy complaining all the way to the room, not even knowing it was me.
I didn’t know why he was talking so comfortably with someone he had never met, but to me, who knew everything, it was just funny.
* * *
bang-!
Choi Kyung-hoon, who closed the door, walked towards me with long strides, pushed me against the wall and growled.
“I’ve heard so much about you that my ears are bleeding, my dear. But no matter how much I think about it, I don’t remember anything about you other than what I heard from someone. But why do you know things about me that you shouldn’t know?”
The rough and cool appearance disappeared everywhere, and in its place was filled with only sharp murder.
However, I now know very well that this is the true appearance of Choi Gyeong-hoon, a military man, and a voiceless Choi Gyeong-hoon.
The usual harshness is nothing more than the leisure and enjoyment of the powerful.
I remember defeating enemies and crushing monsters just like I do now in every battle.
That’s why I calmly responded to the deadly threat that froze my bones and stung my skin.
“Because I deserve it.”
“Qualification? Because I’m qualified…. No one can show that kind of attitude in front of me. “Do you know that there is no reason why I can’t kill you just because you are 700 floors lower than my level of climbing?”
WowThe power of destruction overflows from the lightly clenched fist.
Speculation (鬪氣).
The power to destroy everything that stands in your way and break down strong barriers.
That is a force that I cannot even properly deal with right now.
‘A crystallization of effort and talent that is treated almost the same as the energy of the Four Emperors.’
Demonic energy, divine power, dragon power, giant power.
I was not aware of this energy being treated similarly to the four energies of the Four Emperors.
It would have been even more strange not to be able to recognize the energy of my close friend who was by my side as a vanguard.
Above all, the reason why speculation was treated equally with the four energies of the Four Emperors was also the same.
“The power of Tess. As expected, you handle it well. Except for him, it’s a power that most people can’t even obtain. Kyunghoon, you are you too.”
“…!!!”
Emperorless Tess.
Because the power of the emperor of the Empire of Wu, who had a vast area from the 200th to the 300th floor under his feet, was speculation.
A transcendent of the tower that even gods and demons fear, and even the Four Emperors can’t do anything about.
Given his strength, it was natural.
Of course, there were very few beings who could handle speculation as much as that, except for Choi Kyung-hoon in front of me and Tess, the original owner.
Choi Gyeong-hoon, seeing me recognize even his speculation, which was no different from his foundation, asked the now familiar question in a slightly trembling voice.
“you…Who are you?”
I smiled slightly and took off my mask, hearing the deep warning in the voice.
Do you know about the mysteries of the soul?
The fact that the soul inherently takes priority over the body.
Therefore, if someone’s soul resides in someone’s body, change progresses slowly.
However, slow but sure changes will eventually reach results.
“car…Jinhyuk…?”
“okay. It’s been a while, Choi Kyung-hoon. Has it been a little more than ten years? Anyway, I think it’s been quite a while, hasn’t it?”
The result was that the body followed the soul.
A change so clear that a person who knows the owner of the soul would be reminded of the owner of the soul.
Thanks to this, I have become uncomfortable taking off my mask recently, but not as much as now.
The sight of Choi Kyung-hoon immediately recognizing me, with the mask he had so effortlessly thrown away, was enough to make even me feel a little touched.
Ten years.
Because it means that even after time has passed that the rivers and mountains have changed, they remember me.
It was quite meaningful that Choi Kyung-hoon, who did not have a memory as noble as that of gods and devils, but who could easily be considered stupid outside of combat, remembered me.
and Wood clatter-
“…Nice to meet you, you bastard.”
“…The welcome is so warm.”
Choi Kyung-hoon hugged me so tightly that I thought my ribs were broken.
I frowned in pain, but I shook my head and stood still as I felt the wetness on my shoulder.
Unlike me, who came prepared, I understand the surprise and sadness of Choi Kyeong-hoon, who met his long-dead friend again without preparation.
Pat patWe stood like that for a while, patting my back, which was firm and wide but full of scars.
