Absolute Regression Chapter 709

Episode 709 You Must Run Away

Up until now, the marble had never moved on its own,
but the watch was responding to it.

Woohoo.

‘This is real energy.’

It was clear that the energy that the Bigwi had absorbed had been there until now.
However, there was no way that the beads they had brought contained any goodwill.

“I have to put it back.”

At the moment when Geommu-geuk was carefully lifting the box to put the marble in
, the marble flew towards Chayran.
Chayran accepted it without even thinking about it.

I had the thought that I shouldn’t accept the bead and that I shouldn’t break it, but I accepted it as my instincts told me to.
It was a bead I had carried around in my arms all this time, and it was a bead that I had to return, so my instincts didn’t make a choice to avoid it.

The swordsman was startled and tried to pull out his sword, but Chayran raised her hand and signaled that it was okay.
The bead was in her palm. She had only seen it in a box, but this was the first time she had come into contact with the bead like this.

I thought it would be an eerie feeling, but it wasn’t. An indescribable, mysterious feeling was transmitted to her palm. She didn’t know it, but it was the right feeling.

The swordmaster pushed the box forward again.

When she quickly tried to put the marbles back in the box, this time the marbles reacted first.

Charararararak.

A red stream of energy flowed out from the bead like a thread and wrapped around her wrist.

“are you okay.”

The energy was still friendly. It didn’t seem like it would harm him at all.
The red thread wrapped around his wrist slowly began to move up from his wrist to his arm, as if exploring him.

Chairan slowly drew out his dagger as he raised his internal energy.
Geommu-geuk also prepared to draw his sword at any moment, while his other hand was ready to snatch the bead from her hand.
If something happened, he was determined to immediately cut off the energy that connected her to the bead.

As the energy rose up her arm, passed her shoulder, and tried to wrap around her neck, she gently pushed it away with her other hand.

It was okay to wrap my arms around you, but I didn’t feel like wrapping my neck around you.

At that very moment,
the thread-like energy flowing out of the bead swelled as if it was angry.

Swish!

The energy that had wrapped around her arms stretched out further and snaked around her waist and thighs. It was all in an instant.
And it was still connected to the bead. It was as if it had to root itself into the bead.

Up until now, it was fine. The energy was still friendly.
The problem was that there was something in that energy.

Whirlwind.

I saw the difference between the sword dance and the difference.
Something was swimming quickly through the red aura.

Whirlilyrick.

This time I could see it clearly as the red energy circled around again.

To my surprise, it was a snake. A real snake was moving through the red aura that wrapped around its entire body like a snake.

It was a very small snake, about the length of a finger, and its color was red like blood. The snake was swimming through the red energy as if it were water.

As the red snake emerged, the nature of the red energy surrounding its body began to change. The red energy that had been extremely soft seemed to shake violently at one point.

Kwaaaaah.

He started to strangle her.
Chayran cut off the aura with a dagger.

wickedness.

But the energy was not cut off. The blade simply passed by like smoke.

‘I have to catch that snake!’

She aimed for the snake that was passing by quickly. It was too fast to cut down.

‘Next time Bend!’

Swish! Crunch!

The dagger accurately cut off the snake that was passing through the energy wrapped around the front of his waist.

Sssssss.

However, the severed snake instantly reassembled and returned to its original shape, swimming in the red energy.

The swordsman spoke to her with a serious face.

“It’s no use. That snake is real, but it’s fake.”

Geommu-geuk could tell what this was. He had studied and researched this martial art in advance, knowing that his opponent was the Dark Palace.

“That snake is a flying snake.”

It was a word referring to a snake and also a secret technique.

The bloodless death of the Dark Palace.

It was their own secret art that allowed them to penetrate the human body and control the mind.

There are two main ways to control a person’s mind: the art of seduction and the art of poisoning.
However, the art of blood poisoning was a combination of the two.

In a word, living secret art.

If loneliness penetrates the human brain and dominates the person, then non-blood poison enters the heart and dominates the person.

Solitude was not effective against Mandok Bulchim, and if one knew what kind of solitude it was, one could eliminate it.
However, it was not a bloodless death. Mandok Bulchim could not be stopped, and there was no cure.

Moreover, since it was not just witchcraft, it was also very effective against opponents who were strong in witchcraft.

This is the secret technique that has the greatest effect on the sword dance.

Of course, making a bloodless snake was a nearly impossible task.
It was known that it was difficult to make even one bloodless snake even if you worked hard for your entire life. The process of making it was too difficult and cost a lot of money, and even if you succeeded in making it, it was known that keeping it alive was even more difficult.

They said that it was a secret technique that only a genius in dark martial arts could create?

Surprisingly, that martial art appeared.

Although Chayran didn’t know exactly what a bloodless death was, he knew at least one thing for sure.

“Don’t come near me! It’s a trap!”

There was no way they would kill her. She knew instinctively. They were just trying to get the Sword Dance to do something.

They must have anticipated this situation from the moment they entrusted the beads to her.

Meanwhile, the red energy wrapped itself around his body even more tightly.

“I’m going to kill you. Run away!”

He thought that if this unknown energy was absorbed into him, he would kill Geommu-geuk. He would be consumed by madness and display tremendous internal energy. It would be a dark power to deal with the small cult leader, so it would be tremendously powerful.

Kwak.

Her expression grew even more frowning. The red aura pressed hard against her body, almost to the point of it crumbling.

At that moment, Geommugeuk said something unexpected.

“You have to run away.”

Chae-ran couldn’t understand what Geommu-geuk meant.
As Geommu-geuk approached her again, she remembered what Hwa-do-myeong had said to her earlier.

-You will be convinced by the cult leader. Just like Akgunhak was convinced.

He knew that he would join hands with the cult leader.

-This plan has been completely calculated.

Yes, he definitely said that.
And he calculated it.

‘The little cult leader will save me!’

Hwadomyeong must have entrusted the bead to Geommugeuk, knowing that he would save her.
Knowing that Geommugeuk would not readily absorb the bead, he had no choice but to make him absorb it.
The half-joking, half-serious words he had said to Geommugeuk became reality.

‘… … I really was their tool.’

Her frown wasn’t just from pain.

The pressure was getting stronger and stronger, and it was reaching its limit. I couldn’t stop it with my own self-defense. It felt like my whole body would explode at any moment.

Chayran repeated back to Geommugeuk what he had said to her.

“I’ll go to hell first and wait.”

At the same time, without a moment’s hesitation, she plunged the dagger into her own neck.

Shhh.

She broke her rule of never committing suicide.
At the moment of death, she was thankful that she was a person who did not fear death. It was the same when she had a premonition of death from the Apostle Lord, and it was the same now. Yes, she thought that this kind of death was not bad.

Of course, it wasn’t a sword dance that could be seen as such.
The dagger stopped in front of her neck. The sword dance stopped her dagger with a hollow sound.

“……Let me die for you.”

Of course, it was a request that was not acceptable to Geommugeuk.

“Have you forgotten? What would have happened if you had done that? Hey, you are the leader of the Demonic Cult, but you couldn’t save even one woman who said she liked me? What on earth have you done? Look here, half a woman.”

The swordsman looked into her eyes and said.

“Trust me.”

As soon as she finished speaking, Geommu-geuk grabbed the red bead in her hand.
Then, the red energy that came out of the bead vibrated even more, squeezing her.

The sword dance placed the bead in her bosom.
To Chayran, it seemed like she was taking the bead to her heart. It seemed as if she was willing to make the sacrifice, so she cried out desperately.

“No! Please…… No.”

But the bead did not hit his heart, but rather the chest he was holding in his bosom.

At that very moment.

The long, stretched-out bead vibrated loudly once.

Ss …

As the energy that had been surrounding Chayran was released, it began to return to the bead.
The bead began to reclaim all the energy that had been extended. The red snake was also present in the reclaimed energy.

The ark in his arms vibrated and rose into the air. Geommugeuk’s body rose with it.

As always, the Bigwi began to melt the energy of the bead. The energy that had originally flowed in and out of the bead began to melt away without leaving a single trace, as if refining it anew.
The energy that flowed out of the Bigwi again began to seep into Geommugeuk’s body. Geommugeuk did not avoid the energy, but accepted it.

The energy that had passed through the passage was completely absorbed into Geommu-geuk’s body. The blood-stained substance that had dissolved into the energy was reassembled into the form of a snake and absorbed into Geommu-geuk’s body as well.

As I absorbed all the energy, I felt a bead pop out from the crater.

I could tell it was a sword dance.

That they had used the enemy to plant the bloodless spirit in him.
Perhaps, once they had taken control of his mind, they would use any means necessary to retrieve all the energy in his body. There was no way they would give up this energy.

Anyway, thanks to that, the sword dance drama succeeded in obtaining the proper amount of energy.
There is only one problem, the blood poison that has entered the body!

The energy inside my body suddenly woke up and started to run wild. I could tell it was a rejection reaction to the new non-blood element that had entered.

Now, the blood-blood reaper was also present in the five-branched energy that swirled through the blood vessels.
The blood-blood reaper, like a living organism, was waiting for an opportunity to somehow penetrate the heart of Geommu-geuk.
Geommu-geuk tried to block it by operating its internal power.

Although she suffered great pain and lost consciousness, Chai Lan did not lose consciousness.
She struggled to get up and tried to help the sword dance, but then stopped.

“Little leader!”

She could feel it. The sword dance was fighting the red snake inside her body right now. It was not a situation where anyone could carelessly step in.

“We can overcome this!”

It was just then.

widely.

Someone subdued the demon from behind her and whispered in her ear.

“You can never win against a cult leader.”

The man who appeared from behind her like a ghost was none other than Hwadomyeong.
She had just been released from the suffocating aura and was concentrating on the sword dance, so she was unable to stop Hwadomyeong’s surprise attack.

“The little cult leader really knows how to absorb energy.”

He made an expression as if he couldn’t believe it even though he saw it with his own eyes.
Hwadomyeong’s gaze turned to Chairan again.

“Thank you for your hard work, buddy.”

Chae-ran glared at him without saying a word. Hwa-do-myeong opened his fan as if he was scared and hid his face behind it. His words leaked out from behind the fan.

“Because of the Cheonmahosingong, it was impossible to implant the bloodless spirit into the body of the small sect leader using normal methods. That’s why we decided to throw a big bait.”

The bait was both a difference and a bead containing the right amount of light.

“No matter how small the cult leader is, he cannot stop a bloodless death.”

Hwadomyeong peeked out from behind the fan.
Hwadomyeong’s eyes looking at her were filled with a mixture of emotions.
On the other hand, Chae-ran’s emotions looking at him were clear.

Contempt and anger.

“Did you bring up the story about evil spirits on purpose?”

It was Hwadomyeong who first brought up the topic of Akgunhak to him.
He wanted to naturally get closer to the Sogyoju through Akgunhak.

A satisfied smile appeared on Hwadomyeong’s lips. It was a smile of affirmation.

“The cult leader is not the kind of person to just sit by and watch someone die right before his eyes after giving up everything he had to fulfill the request.”

Chayran was angry and desperate. But now was not the time to blame herself.

“Hey, buddy.”
“I’m sorry you still call me friend?”
“I don’t know about others, but you shouldn’t be doing this to me, right?”
“Didn’t I tell you not to meet the cult leader earlier?”

Is that the only excuse you could come up with?

Chai Ran tried hard to hold back the words she wanted to say.

“Why didn’t you trust me? You pretended to refuse the contract, but you were going to kill them all. You should have given me a chance.”

Hwadomyeong looked at her and laughed. It was an obvious mockery.

“This cult leader is truly amazing. It’s amazing to see him make you tell such lies.”

Was the reason you were fanning me softly by my side all this time, saying we were friends, for this day?

She again held back what she wanted to say.

“If this continues, I won’t be able to close my eyes even if I die. Let me carry out my last request with my own hands.”

He was thinking of saving Geommu-geuk somehow. Even if it meant sacrificing himself.
But it didn’t work on Hwadomyeong.

“Don’t look at me, look over there. This is the moment when the history of martial arts world will change.”

The swordsman stood with his eyes closed. His pupils moved violently under his eyelids. He could tell that he was fighting with the bloodthirsty demon inside his body.

“If the non-blood cult leader completely dominates the minor cult leader…….”

Words that shouldn’t have come out came out.

“The leader of the small group will kill the leader of the Apostles.”

Choaak.

Hwadomyeong spread out his fan and supported her gently.

“Your request was a success.”

Chayran looked at the swordsman fighting with his eyes closed. The last words he had said came to mind.

Trust me.

I gave up on the request because of you, so you have to trust me. Yes, even if I give up on the request, I won’t give up on you.

“The contract was a success?”

Chai Lan added with a captivating smile.

“You don’t have to give me the money back?”
