Book 2: Chapter 435: 2 roles for 1 person and the chaotic Demon World (10)

<2 roles for 1 person and the chaotic Demon World (8)>

“Go.”

Cale motioned with his hand and the two water snakes slithered toward Sir Sutton and his subordinates.

Baaaaang!

Sir Sutton’s body was pushed back with a loud explosion.

‘Fuck!’

He clenched his eyes shut.

He managed to barely stop one water snake but he missed the other one.

No, one had not paid any attention to Sutton.

“Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!”

“Ahhh!”

“Ugh!”

He heard the screams of the three Holy Knights getting consumed by the water snake.

Sutton urgently turned around.

Splash-

This water snake, which had a body that was so large it was hard to just call it a snake, wrapped around the three knights and charged right through the trees.

Baaaaang!

“Ugh!”

“Ahh!”

“…….”

The three Holy Knights were helpless as they smashed into the trees as if they were caught in a wave.

Two were groaning in pain while one was already unconscious.

‘…It is because of fear……!’

The three Holy Knights…

They were not weak.

Sir Paul, the squad leader, was a middle-grade Holy Knight. He was not the type of swordsman who would be so helplessly defeated without being able to resist.

But fear…

They were unable to control their bodies properly because of that fear from earlier.

How could they react to the water snake when it felt like they would suffocate from that dominance?

“Ugh!”

Sutton subconsciously groaned.

He did not have the time to think about other things.

Baaaaaang!

The water snake was aiming for him again.

Chhhhhhhhh!

Sutton’s body was pushed back.

But Sutton somehow managed to stop the water snake and persist.

Ooooooooong-

Oooongoooooooo-

The twin blades that were in his hands…

Grey light gathered around the swords and helped Sutton from being swept up by the water.

‘It’s bearable!’

He was able to handle a water snake of this level.

“!”

But Sutton soon had a great enlightenment.

His whole body started to shake.

His pupils started wandering and fear filled his face.

‘The smell-

I still can’t smell anything……!’

Drip.

His nose would not stop bleeding.

The blood dripped past his mouth, his chin, and down to his neck before wetting the inside of his leather armor.

The stench of blood was so strong that he could not smell anything.

‘Ah.’

Sutton realized it.

The black-haired man in front of him…

‘He’s going easy on me right now!’

Sutton’s eyes filled with rage.

“…A mere disciple of the Third Emperor dares……!”

To me, someone who is using the power bestowed upon me by the great and magnanimous God of Chaos…

A mere wandering bastard is going easy?

Sutton could not accept this situation.

And at that moment…

“Pfft.”

The black-haired man sneered.

“!”

Sutton’s eyes filled with the flames of rage.

Ooooooooong–!

Even more grey light started pouring out of his twin blades.

Cale watched this and subconsciously…

“Pfft.”

Laughed again.

‘Oops.

I need to be serious.

But I can’t help but laugh.’

– Hehe! He keeps getting fooled!

He was subconsciously laughing while hearing these comments from Raon.

Honestly speaking, it was rare to smack an enemy in the back since entering New World.

He had smacked the White Star in the back here, there, everywhere when they were fighting, but…

He had put out some seeds to start smacking people in the back but had yet to have any results.

But he got happy seeing the Holy Knights getting fooled so well.

‘But did he say disciple?’

Of course, Cale did not miss the information presented either.

The Third Emperor’s Water Dragons.

His subordinate’s Water Snake.

But that subordinate seemed to be a disciple.

‘Can unique powers be passed down?

It should not be a power that allows for disciples?’

As Cale started to have other thoughts for a moment…

Slaaaaaash!

Cale flinched after hearing a sound.

– Human!

Raon called out to him.

“Ahhhhh-!”

Sir Sutton had slashed through the water snake and was charging toward Cale.

Oooooong– oooooong!

The grey light coming out of his twin blades were sparkling more radiant than ever before.

Drip drip-

Of course, both sides of his nose were bleeding profusely, but…

– Human, I think this guy’s gone a bit cray-cray!

The bleeding did make him look scarier.

Sutton noticed Cale flinching and opened his mouth.

“You think this lowly power can defeat the power bestowed upon me by the great and mighty God of Chaos?!”

But Cale’s face was calm.

No, he looked as if he was looking down at Sutton.

“Go.”

As he moved his hand with a calm voice…

“!”

Sir Sutton got chills down his back.

Although he could not smell…

His other senses were still alert.

“Ugh!”

He had to roll to the side.

And in the spot he had just been at…

Baaaaaang!

There was a loud explosion as a water snake swallowed that spot and shook the ground.

“……!”

Sutton’s eyes shook as he looked at what had just happened while Cale nonchalantly commented.

“One must never forget that there is more than one snake.”

There was still the snake that had attacked Sutton’s three subordinates.

Sutton slowly turned his gaze to look at Cale.

Cale smiled once he looked into those shaking pupils.

– Human, you’re doing so well smiling like a real villain!

‘Yes. I’m just pretending to be a villain. I’m not doing this because I am really feeling refreshed.’

At least that was what Cale told himself.

– Human, are you going to knock these Holy Knights unconscious now?

Cale was planning on finishing things with Sir Sutton and the others.

‘No need to drag things out.’

Cale’s goal was simple.

Rescue Sui Khan.

Make the Church of the God of Chaos believe that the Third Emperor was related to this and cause friction.

Continue to amplify the issues between the Church of the God of Chaos and the Hunters that should have started at the Night of the Beginning.

Cale opened his mouth.

Shaaaaaaaaaaa-

Water shot up with him at the center.

As the Sky Eating Water was about to properly use her powers…

‘Hmm?’

Cale flinched after seeing Sutton.

Sutton had looked frantic as both of his nose bled.

But the look on his face was now different.

He smiled and asked.

“Who are you?”

“!”

Cale truly became shocked.

– Eek!

Raon was shocked as well.

– Human, I, I think we were caught!

As Raon stuttered in shock…

Sutton asked once more.

“I asked who you were.”

Stab.

Sutton stabbed his twin blades in the ground to use them as support to stand up.

He didn’t even look at his subordinates as his whole body became covered in grey light and his force strengthened.

“As expected, you are not the disciple of the Third Emperor.”

A high-grade Holy Knight.

It was not easy to get to such a position.

Furthermore, being one of the top three high-grade Holy Knights was something that was hard to achieve even after working hard your entire life.

But Sutton had started from the bottom and made it all the way to that position by his forties.

In addition to his talent with the sword, he was skilled in many things.

Faith toward the God of Chaos.

That overwhelming faith was one of the strongest among all Holy Knights.

His peculiar ability that gave him the nickname of Blood Tracker.

Furthermore, his steel-like coldness to maximize that ability.

“I can see it no matter how hard you try to fool me.”

As someone with that cold and calculated personality, Sutton had been acting flustered and frustrated to scope out the opponent.

‘Of course, I was really shocked at first.’

The sudden appearance of the enemy…

Furthermore, the aura with the omnipotent dominance that swept over his body…

Being unable to smell anything for the first time in his life…

“I thought you were the Third Emperor’s disciple when you pulled out the water snakes.”

But he had soon realized something was weird.

Sutton looked toward the black-haired man.

“…….”

The man who was looking at him with a nonchalant gaze…

“You-”

He thought he figured out the identity of this person.

“You are the First Emperor, aren’t you?”

“……!”

The man flinched.

Sutton saw this and started smiling.

Oooooong– oooooong-

Even more grey light started to swirl around his body.

Sutton, one of the top three high-grade Holy Knights.

The Blood Tracker.

He was channeling every ounce of strength he had.

‘The First Emperor.’

The enemy in front of him.

“I didn’t expect to meet the leader of the Five Colors Bloods like this.”

He was so strong that Sutton did not dare to think he could face him.

Cale slowly opened his mouth.

“…What makes you think that?”

Cale looked serious.

‘Wow. How did he come up with such nonsense?

What is up with this situation?’

– H, human, this guy’s completely delusional!

Raon was truly flustered.

Cale could not even smile.

He was truly curious.

‘The First Emperor? Isn’t that the first wanderer?’

The leader of the Five Colors Bloods was the first wanderer.

The person dreaming of becoming a transcender.

Why was he suddenly being brought up?

“Ha!”

Sutton scoffed.

He became certain after seeing the serious look on Cale’s face as well as that question.

“I knew I was right.”

Once someone reaches the level of a high-grade Holy Knight, it is almost a requirement to keep information about the leaders of the other factions in their heads.

For someone like Sutton, as someone who frequently tracks people, he memorized even deeper information.

Sutton thought that his life might end here today.

“I heard that the First Emperor can control most powers of nature.”

But he had no plans on withdrawing or escaping.

“That aura of yours. That is definitely something the disciple of the Third Emperor would not have.”

He would rather die for the God of Chaos.

The person with the omnipotent aura that made Sutton feel suffocated…

“Furthermore, you did not use all of your powers.”

Based on all of that information, the answer was clear.

“First Emperor, why are you pretending to be the disciple of the Third Emperor?”

Ooooooooong-

The twin blades started rumbling as if they understood the solemn heart of their master.

“Even if I die, you will never be able to reach the Church of the God of Chaos.”

Sutton knew about the dreadful situation at their Holy Land, the Night of the Beginning.

That was the reason the Holy Knights, who had been spread out throughout the Demon World, had gathered here with the Pope.

As a high-grade Holy Knight, Sutton knew that two different factions were involved.

‘Wanderers.’

To be more specific, the Five Colors Bloods.

As for the other,

‘Did they say his name was Cale?’

Someone from a different dimension who had destroyed the White Star project.

But that Cale person should not have come to the Demon World.

Because that person should have no idea about the Demon World, the current Demon King, aligning with the Hunters and the Church of the God of Chaos.

So why would he come to this place?

‘He also doesn’t have a way to get to the Demon World.’

That should mean that the only remaining enemy was the Wanderers.

And someone imitating the Third Emperor’s disciple had to be someone from the Five Colors Bloods.

“Ha, haha-”

Cale started laughing.

He then calmly answered.

“I am not the First Emperor.”

“Ha!”

Sutton couldn’t help but scoff.

Both of his blades pointed forward.

“My allies who saw that signal will be here soon. My task is to keep you here until they get here. First Emperor.”

“Are you sure you can do that?”

As Cale tilted his head and asked…

“Aaaaaaaaaah!”

Sutton shouted and kicked off the ground.

His body shot toward Cale like a thunderbolt.

Ooooooo—

The grey light surrounding his body wrapped around the twin blades and turned them into a single arrow.

Clang-!

As the twin blades pointed at the sky and then turned their tips toward Cale…

Sutton’s eyes were only looking at Cale.

“If I really am the First Emperor, do you think you can stop me?”

As he calmly said that.

“Ugh!”

Sutton’s nose started bleeding again and he had to stop.

No, his whole body was shaking uncontrollably that he could not even walk.

“Uhh, ugh-”

‘Just what-

How could something like this-’

An omnipotent power suppressing his whole body…

It felt like all sorts of weapons were pointed at him.

The fear that taking a single step would lead to his death filled his mind.

He felt like he needed to lower all parts of his body to beg this person for forgiveness.

Plop.

One knee fell to the ground.

It was an instinctual action. It did not have any thoughts or will behind it.

His body was just reacting to this man.

He lowered his head toward this person.

He knelt down and lowered his whole body.

Puuk!

He stabbed his twin blades into the ground to try to prevent himself from bowing completely, but the hands holding the blades were shaking so much that they could not support his body.

“…Oo…ahhhhhh…….”

Sutton could not raise his head.

He suddenly had a thought.

‘Would it feel like this when I face my lord, the God of Chaos?

Wouldn’t the aura of a god be like this?

Ah.

Does that mean this man is like a god?

How does that make any sense?’

The human in front of him was clearly-

‘No.’

He could not withdraw like this.

‘No.

I don’t know.’

He could not think.

He just wanted to get out of this situation.

“… Oo ……”

Sutton’s world slowly turned black.

He felt like he would lose consciousness because of this extremely strong aura that felt like it would dominate him.

A high-grade Holy Knight.

After working so hard to get there, he couldn’t even withstand an aura like this?!

Sutton tried to resist.

He wanted to at least raise his head or turn his face to look at this person.

He wanted to at least do that much.

He could not submit with his head lowered like this.

“Ah.”

But Sutton realized it.

He could not defeat this.

Drop.

The hands holding the twin blades weakened.

His world truly turned black.

The light slowly disappeared, and…

Plop-

His body hit the ground.

Sutton fainted.

“…….”

Cale looked down at him and thought to himself.

‘Huh? He really fainted?’

No, he was flustered.

– Ahhahahahahahaha! I made him faint with just my aura!

The Dominating Aura was laughing with joy.

‘Wait, this is really possible?’

Cale was flustered.

– Kehehe, of course it is possible!

As for the Dominating Aura, it was extremely pompous.

– We were controlling it to use on people, but our power is at a level that it can even work on gods! The aura is strong enough to resist the pressure of a god!

This power had allowed Cale to push back against the God of Chaos to a degree.

– Of course a person handling that level of aura alone would faint.

‘Oh.’

Cale was amazed at the upgraded strength of the Dominating Aura.

He had not known because he had been facing extremely strong enemies until now, but he had gotten a lot stronger.

‘Can I fight without using my hands now?’

Cale felt like he would smile knowing that the Dominating Aura, that required the least from him to use and had the least rebound, could make enemies faint.

However-

– Human, you are still acting!

Cale calmly maintained his poker face at Raon’s warning.

Cale looked up.

“Oo, ooooah-”

“Huuuff-”

The Holy Knights who had not fainted were shaking and didn’t know what to do.

“You guys should follow him.”

Cale then used a similar amount of Dominating Aura as he had used on Sutton.

And he said one more thing right before they fainted.

“This should be enough of a warning for their betrayal.”

Plop, plop.

Cale confirmed that the remaining two Holy Knights fainted before slowly turning around and leaving.

Step step.

His slow footsteps…

“Acceleration spell please.”

“I got it, human!”

Shaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa-

Became extremely swift after he used the Sound of the Wind and Raon’s acceleration spell.

‘The finish is the most important part of fooling the enemy!’

Leave the right amount of chaos and quickly hit and run!

Cale worked hard to move quickly.

“Huff. Huff.”

Despite using the Sound of the Wind and an acceleration spell, he had run hard and was breathing heavily.

Cale had run very hard.

And finally-

“…What the hell have you been up to?”

“Huff. Huff.”

He saw team leader Lee Soo Hyuk by himself, leisurely laying on the ground. No, this was Sui Khan.

He kicked the side of the guy leisurely laying down on the spot the signal flare had been shot.

“What?”

As Sui Khan looked flabbergasted at the sweating Cale…

Cale caught his breath and started to speak urgently.

“Let’s bounce!”

“Ah.”

Sui Khan jumped up.

One of his arms was bound but Cale had no time to pay any attention.

“Cale-nim.”

“Meeeeeow!”

“Meeow!”

Cale motioned with his eyes to Clopeh, On, and Hong and Raon.

“Let’s bounce!”

“I got it, human! I already prepped everything!”

Once he said that…

Ooooooong-

Despite this being the Demon World, a teleportation magic circle with black mana was created.

Paaaat!

Cale’s group instantly disappeared from that spot.

They had escaped very well.

The Pope received a report a bit after that.

“…Enemies infiltrated the forest?”

“Yes, your Holiness.”

“Any casualties?”

“…There are some with light injuries but nobody has died.”

The Pope’s gaze changed.

The strongest Holy Knight started to speak.

“According to reports from Sir Sutton and Sir Paul, this was a warning from the First Emperor.”

The First Emperor.

The Pope’s gaze changed after hearing that name.

‘The Five Colors Bloods have realized that our church is in the Demon World?’

“With the grand vision so near…”

With the grand vision of swallowing the Demon World right in front of their eyes…

“Something entertaining has happened.”

The others who saw the cold yet almost explosive gaze in the Pope’s eyes lowered their heads.

* * *

“Didn’t you say that that motherfucking wanderer came to the Demon World?”

“Yes, Master! The text left there was definitely the language of the Demon World.”

The Third Emperor watched his disciple urgently answering his question.

“…….”

The disciple clenched his eyes shut at that gaze and continued to speak.

“I will track him down within two days, master!”

“Fine. I’ll trust you.”

The Third Emperor finally smiled as if he was satisfied.

As for two wanderers who were watching this…

The siblings with the Transparent-Grade unique powers in the Five Colors Bloods…

Cho and Ryun.

“…….”

“… Ah, come on. Why the hell am I here?”

Ryun patted her grumbling younger brother as she quietly looked up at the sky of the Demon World.

‘Investigate the Church of the God of Chaos.’

‘Assist the Third Emperor.’

The issue with Cale Henituse would be left to someone else while the siblings came with the Third Emperor to the Demon World.

* * *

“Tsk.”

Cale clicked his tongue as Sui Khan ate some apple pie and snickered.

Cale immediately asked after seeing that snicker.

“You come back hurt and then you laugh like you did something well?”

The children averaging ten-years-old responded to that.

“Human! You of all people should not be saying that!”

“I don’t think the person who gets hurt the most and coughs up the most blood should be saying that, nya!”

“Haaaa.”

Cale shut up after hearing On sigh.
