Absolute Regression Chapter 711

Episode 711: This is a really bad life

Darkness fell.
Chayran looked at the darkened alley with cautious eyes. There was a hushed murderous spirit there, and the air flowing around her seemed to foretell death.

There were enemies scattered all around.

Chai Lan carefully put down the sword. He
leaned against the wall and covered his body with a black cloth.
It was a blackout curtain that assassins always carried around to hide in such dark places, so that they would not be noticed. It was thin and light, and when folded, it was as big as the palm of one’s hand.

Fortunately, the clothes she was wearing today were black martial arts uniforms that she had been told would suit her sword fighting skills. They were comfortable to fight in and wouldn’t stand out in the dark.

‘You, it seems like you had a feeling something like this would happen, didn’t you?’

She moved quietly into the darkness.
In the alley, a single man was standing, leaning against the wall. He was leaning against the wall, not drawing his sword, for fear of the blade reflecting off of him.

Saaaaak.

His throat was cut off with a sound of flesh being torn apart.
The one who had covered his mouth and cut his throat was Cai Lan. Now she was a perfect assassin.

When Chairan quietly placed the unmanned corpse on the ground and was about to go back to where the sword dance was.

Shhh!

A sword flew out of the darkness. The hidden unmanned person had broken his cover and revealed himself. It was a trap set to kill her, using the exposed unmanned person as bait.

Chayran reflexively turned his body to avoid the attack.

Pfft!

A flying sword grazed her arm.

Phew!

The knife in her hand was stuck in the neck of the unmanned man.
After quietly laying the body down again, Chayran flew to where the sword dance was. Although she had defeated the opponent, she could have been injured if she had been a little later. That meant that she was not an opponent to be taken lightly.

‘They are Hwadomyeong’s direct subordinates.’

Not only was his martial arts skills excellent, but as expected from Hwadomyeong’s subordinates, his stealth skills were also extraordinary.

She pulled back the blackout curtain that had been covering Geommugeuk. She
could feel the hot heat coming from Geommugeuk’s body, which was closed. Perhaps there was a fierce battle going on inside his body.

“I believe you are listening to me. Just hold on a little longer.”

She carried Geommu-geuk. She tore his clothes so that she could use both hands while carrying him, and tied him tightly to her body.
The fastest way to the Shinhwa room was to jump from roof to roof, using light air, but it was too conspicuous, so she would be the center of attack. She couldn’t fight like that while carrying Geommu-geuk.

Again she began to move through the darkness.
As expected of the best assassin, her movements were imperceptible, not even a breath or a sound of footsteps, not even a single prayer. It was as if shadows were moving through the darkness.

At that moment, the moon that had been hidden by the clouds suddenly appeared.
At that moment, when the surroundings were brightly lit,
the outline of the unmanned man who had been hiding in the shadow of the wall a little away from her was revealed. The opponent also looked this way.
The unmanned man drew his sword and tried to strike with his sword energy, but Chayran was faster.

Swish!
Phew!

Chayran’s dagger flew straight and fast as light and stuck in his neck.

At the same time, a black aura flew towards her from behind.

Oh my god!

She jumped up, kicking the ground with her swordsmanship on her back as the dark energy filled the alley.
As she turned her back to the moon and appeared in the air, two unmanned beings who had been hiding on the rooftops on either side rushed toward her as if they had been waiting.

The drone flying in from the left was faster.

A liquid that breaks down.

Chayran stretched out her body and lay down in the air. The sword missed her face and missed. Her expression reflected in the blade was extremely calm.

Kwak.

Her new form spun around along with her opponent’s as she grabbed his wrist and twisted it.

Phew!

The sword of the unmanned man rushing in from the right stabbed the chest of the unmanned man on the left. Chayran blocked it using the unmanned man on the left as a shield while simultaneously swinging his right palm.

Phew!

The rain-like torrent of air struck the chest of the right unmanned unit.

Pupupupu!

The unmanned aircraft flew far away with a hole piercing through its chest. Her special technique of falling like rain.

The Heavenly Lady’s Night Rain Palm.

Her hidden martial arts skills had been revealed. She
usually only used secret techniques and never showed her martial arts skills, but today, she was revealing everything about herself.

She fell back down in an instant and hid in an alley.
The clouds covered the moon again and the surroundings became dark.

After she retrieved her dagger from the body, she quickly walked again.
A soft groan could be heard from Geommugeuk’s mouth. The more she moved her body, the more powerful Geommugeuk would become.

But that doesn’t mean that going safe would be more dangerous. Even if it’s dangerous, you have to speed up and break through.

As she turned into the next alley,
four unmanned soldiers who had been waiting in ambush attacked her at the same time.

Phew!

She unleashed the Heavenly Maiden Sword at the unmanned man on her left, and hurled the dagger in her right hand at the unmanned man on her right. Then, she turned her body to avoid the attack from behind, while blocking the sword flying from the front with the back of her hand.

Crunch!

The unmanned man who was hit by the Heavenly Maiden’s Sword flew backwards, and the dagger was accurately stabbed into the opponent’s neck. Although the unmanned man’s attack from the front was blocked, the problem was the unmanned man behind him.

Shhhhh.

A situation where you have to give up one of your arms to avoid getting hurt by Geommu Geuk.

Phew!

There was a sound of flesh being torn.
But it wasn’t coming from Chayran’s body.
Someone rushed in and grabbed him, pushing him forward and repeatedly stabbing him in the side with a dagger.

Phew! Phew!

The woman who had subdued her opponent in this way was none other than Ilgyo.
The unmanned man who had attacked from the front was being attacked by two other people.

Buck! Buck!

However, the attack from the left was blocked.

Phew!

He couldn’t stop the knife that the Seventeenth Religion stabbed at his back.
He gritted his teeth and turned around as he was about to swing his sword.

Pok! Pok!

This time, Ogyo stabbed him in the back repeatedly.
Muin couldn’t hold out any longer and fell down.
The opponent’s martial arts skills were not low. If he let his guard down, he could be hit.

They only exchanged glances.
In response to the grateful gaze that Chayran sent her as she ran away, they returned a reassuring gaze telling her to leave it to them.

Ilgyo instructed Ohgyo and Sipchilgyo to go to the right road, and then he went into the alley on the left.

This fight was not a fight where it was advantageous to move in groups. It was a fight where they aimed for each other in the dark.
The Five Religions and Seventeen Religions moved in pairs. Their movements were cautious. You never knew where a hidden ambush would occur. Chai Lan could avoid the attack, but it was not easy for them.

A scream erupted from the direction the group had gone. Fortunately, it wasn’t a woman’s scream.

At that moment, when his mind was distracted by that sound,
a sword suddenly flew towards Ohgyo.

Oh my god!

The moment when you slash away a sword that suddenly flies in from the darkness.

Phew!

Another sword emerged from hiding and stabbed Ogyo in the stomach.

Buck! Buck!

The attack that followed the five-legged sect was blocked by the seven-legged sect by flying his body.
The two unmanned sects that had been revealed were fast and strong.
Even if they were from the same sect, there were bound to be those with better skills, and the ones they had now encountered were much stronger and faster than those they had faced before.

Chaeng! Chaeng chaeng!

The Seventeen Religions desperately protected the Five Religions. If it weren’t for their single-minded determination to protect the Five Religions, they would not have been able to stop the combined attack of these two.

Thanks to this, Ohgyo was able to stop the bleeding from his wounds and buy time to join the fight. However, Ohgyo, who had a lot of combat experience, intuitively knew that if things continued this way, they would both die.

Ogyo roughly threw his body at Han Muin. It was a plan to kill each other.

“This is crazy!”

It was an attack so threatening that such urgent words burst out, and it was an attack that disregarded one’s own life.
In that desperate attempt, the Seventeen Sects found a loophole.

At that very moment, the two women crossed their paths.

Swish!
Crunch!

Seventeen Kyo succeeded in defeating the warrior that Ohgyo was trying to kill, but Ohgyo, who had made a reckless move, was stabbed in the shoulder by another warrior’s attack.

In the end, Ohgyo collapsed on the spot. The wound on his stomach was critical, but the wound on his shoulder was also serious.

Seventeen Sect had no time to examine Ohgyo’s wounds. The opponent kept pressing forward.
If he had planned to kill him, Seventeen Sect would certainly have been able to kill him. However, this fight was different.
The assassins were people who killed someone secretly, not people who were good at openly fighting like this.

A word of distress heard from behind as the Seventeen Bridges were pushed back.

“……go.”

It was a message telling her to give up and run away.
But Seventeen-kyo fought to the end. Her arm was cut, and her thigh was also cut, but she did not give up.

Kaang.

The knife she was holding flew away and fell to the ground.
Without hesitation, the man swung his sword at her.

Shhhhh.

The dark sword was in the hand of the Seventeenth Religion. When the sword pierced his chest, he planned to hold the sword with one hand and throw the dark sword with the other.

Could that work? But that would give the Ogyo a chance to survive, even if it was slim. Just as Ogyo was trying to achieve a double-crossing plan, he was also willing to sacrifice himself.

Phew!

There was a sound of flesh being torn.
It was not a sound coming from the body of the Seventh-Gyo. It was not a sound created by the weapon that the Seventh-Gyo was holding.
A dagger was stuck next to the neck of the unmanned man.

Papapak!

As the dagger was pulled out, he fell to the side, spurting blood.
Behind him stood the faceless guest. Seventeen-kyo could tell right away that he was the Crescent Moon faceless guest.

It just so happened that he had saved her again. If we ever met in this fight, she wanted to save him.

The incognito man picked up her knife from the floor and handed it to her. It was the knife she had wanted to give him, but he was giving it to her.

But this was not a situation where she could indulge in personal feelings.
She quickly examined Ohgyo’s wound. She
pressed the acupoint to stop the bleeding and applied a gold ointment. Ohgyo’s face was already pale from having lost a lot of blood.

At that moment, the faceless guest handed her a small pill. It was an emergency medicine that the faceless guest used in emergencies.
When Shichunjiao put the pill in Ohgyo’s mouth, a little color came back to her pale face.

The faceless man pointed to one side with his finger. That was the direction where they had already cleared out their enemies.

“Take your comrade and get out over there.”

It was the first time he spoke to himself.
Seventeen-kyo bowed his head respectfully.

“thank you.”

Unfortunately, the conversation ended there. Seventeen-gyo carried Ohgyo and ran in the direction he had told her.
When she looked back before turning the alley, the faceless guest had already disappeared into the darkness.

* * *

Among the corpses, Chayran was gasping for breath.

“You brought a lot of onlookers.”

Hwadomyeong said he was just watching this incident, but in reality, he was putting everything he had into it.

She returned and saw the swordsman leaning against the wall.
The men tried to take him away from where he was sitting, and he was cut twice while trying to stop them. Fortunately, it wasn’t a serious injury, but he was bleeding a lot and was not in good condition.

‘Just a little further.’

Now that the alleyways were as complicated as a maze, if you just crossed the forest, the myth room was not far away.

“Little Leader, just wait a little longer! I will definitely take you there!”

As she was leaving the alley, Chayran stopped walking.
Her expression darkened.
Before entering the forest, there were about twenty unmanned people lined up in the open space, holding swords.

They were dressed in the same attire as those who had fought before, but they had sharper eyes and sharper prayers. They seemed to be the most capable ones in the organization.

It wasn’t easy to break through them in my current physical condition.
Hwadomyeong was standing among them.

That wasn’t all. Behind Hwadomyeong, three men, a man and a woman, were standing there wearing bamboo hats. They didn’t show any signs of prayer, but their mere presence was enough to grate on one’s nerves. One could tell by their instinct to kill.

‘They are dangerous people.’

Hwadomyeong looked at her and spoke calmly.

“It must be heavy. Just put it down.”

Chayran untied the cloth and carefully sat Geommu-geuk down on the seat.
She looked at Geommu-geuk.
It seemed as if he would open his eyes and smile brightly at any moment. Geommu-geuk still had both eyes closed and said nothing.

“I’m sorry, but it looks like the request failed.”

A faint smile appeared on her lips as she prepared to die.

“From giving up on the contract to failing to carry out the contract, I’m really in a miserable state.”

Still, the sword dance was silent.
She looked at him for a moment, then slowly got up and turned around. There was a dagger in her hand.

“Can I choose who goes with me?”

Without waiting for an answer, Chayran aimed the dagger he was holding at Hwadomyeong.

“you.”

Choaak.

Hwadomyeong spread out his fan and waved it around. If it were just the two of them, he would have covered his face with the fan. But in front of his subordinates, he became a different person.

“Yeah, you’re just a bystander at times like this?”

Hwadomyeong gave the order coldly, as if he would not tolerate even a single word of ridicule.

“Kill him and bring him the leader.”

Just as the twenty or so drones were about to walk forward,
someone flew in from behind.

The one who ran and blocked Chai’s path was Il-gyo. Several more assassins arrived behind her. The fight was still going on in the alley, and Il-gyo arrived first with only a few assassins.

Chai Ran could see that they alone were not enough to change the trend. Hwa Do-myeong was Hwa Do-myeong, but those three mysterious people were even more ominous.

That’s why he gave an order to Ilgyo.

“Take the kids who are fighting and leave this place.”
“No.”

Ilgyo had absolutely no intention of backing down. For the first time, she disobeyed Chayran’s orders.

An unchanging command came from Hwadomyeong’s mouth.

“Kill them all.”

At that moment, the moon that had been hidden by clouds appeared again and the surroundings became brighter.
Compared to the approaching enemies, our forces were too weak.

It was at that moment that
Ilgyo spoke to Chayran.

“I will follow your orders.”

Chae-ran was puzzled by her sudden change in attitude, and Hwa-domyeong laughed at her.

“Yeah, those who are meant to live should live.”

Ilgyo looked up as if it was not her fault.
Then everyone’s eyes followed her and looked up.

The place that Ilgyo looked at was a large tree. There was someone on top of that tree.

When on earth did you come?

There were masked people on the high branches of the giant tree.
Some were standing, some were crouching, and some were sitting on the steps. The sight of them looking down at the room without speaking while wearing masks was terrifyingly bizarre.

Swish swish swish swish swish!

They all jumped down from the tree at the same time.

Step step step step step step step step step!

Even from that high place, they descended lightly.
Like a shield, they lined up to block the gap between Chayran and the assassins.

Hwadomyeong looked at them with cold eyes.
He had ignored the killers before, but he could not ignore the innocent guests. It was not because he was afraid of them.

‘What if the authors came?’

At that moment, a soft voice was heard from behind Chayran.

“Your Majesty.”

When Chai Ran and Salsu turned around in surprise, they saw that the evil Soma was sitting in front of the sword dance that was behind them.

The white mask of the evil soma, bathed in the cold moonlight, was glowing blue. Amidst that coldness, hot eyes streamed out.

“Open your eyes, I am here!”
