A Wild Man Has Entered the Academy - Chapter 496
Asura (1)
-Kwakwakwang! Kwakwakwang!
Changcheon, the capital of the brilliant Huan Empire.
The current situation in Changcheon is truly a disaster, a situation that can be described as a battlefield.
People stabbed each other with swords, bombs exploded everywhere, and beautiful buildings were set on fire.
Unlike the West, the East often builds buildings out of wood, making it highly vulnerable to fire.
Therefore, the moment a fire breaks out in one place, a chain reaction occurs and fire breaks out in other places, resulting in a disaster.
-Kuaaak!
-My, my legs······!
-These fucking rebels!!!
-Long live Korean independence!!!
A bloody war with fire. A rebellion that broke out in the heart of the capital.
The Imperial Army was busy repelling rebels from unknown sources, while the Allied Forces fought desperately for the independence of their homeland.
Here, Namgung Sega, who declared neutrality, also suffered considerable damage, because even if they declared neutrality, people were not like that.
So some people help the Huan Empire, and some people help the Allied Powers knowingly or unknowingly for the sake of neutrality. It was a total mess.
“Now is the time! Let us show our suppressed anger!”
“What the hell are those guys?!”
Not only that, but even the so-called Sapha sect participated in the war. Sapha was a faction that usually hated Namgung Se-ga.
It is standard for the government to not interfere in the affairs of the martial arts world, saying that official duties are inviolable, but the current situation is such that the government cannot perform its role.
Originally, the East was a place where fighting occurred ‘daily’ and safety insensitivity was bound to increase.
These things pile up and explode all at once, making it extremely difficult to even identify the person.
It is expected that it will take a considerable amount of time to reach a state of calm.
The war in Changcheon, the capital of the Huan Empire, gradually became a mess.
No one could be certain because the fight did not go as planned.
‘It’s going smoothly.’
But there was a being for whom this situation itself was the purpose.
People’s cheers, the sound of swords clashing, the sound of buildings burning due to fire, explosions, etc.
In the midst of all the various complex noises and situations, one being was watching alone from a distance.
The entire body was made of black and white, and he was wearing a mask, making it difficult to even see his facial expressions.
An assassin and hunter whose only color is his two glowing blue eyes.
He was satisfied as he watched the sky change as planned.
What the hunters, or rather the demons, want is not chaos in the East. That is merely an additional element.
Bring chaos to the East, but also bring down Shivar, the demon’s sole legacy and the number one priority.
Currently, Shivar is one step away from the chaos in the East as planned. He has entered the eye of the storm.
Although it was unexpected that the saint and Lize entered the eye of the typhoon together, it was a variable that was sufficiently assumed.
‘It seems a bit harsh.’
The hunter scratched his cheek. He knew full well what Shivar meant to the demons, as he was included in the plan.
Thanks to that, I realized how precious he is and how valuable he is. If you think about it, he is a being that can be called a ‘prince’.
The devil is one who does not have life, but ironically, he also does not have longevity. But Shivar has both.
So the expression on Shivar’s face when he was taken away was still vivid. It seemed to contain all the injustice.
‘But it has to be done.’
But I have no intention of letting it go. After all, if we return to our home base, what we have achieved in human civilization will be meaningless.
Now that Shivar has entered the palace, there is nothing I can do. I can just return like this.
It was then that the hunter tried to disappear, hiding his body in the darkness.
“That was a fun prank.”
“?!”
A woman’s voice was heard right behind her. It was a beautiful voice, full of interest.
However, as a hunter, I had no choice but to react sensitively because it approached while hiding both sound and presence.
-Whew!
At this, he immediately swung his dagger backwards. It was the blow that cleanly separated Danjucheon’s neck.
But there was no one behind him. Even the place where the hunter was located was a very tall tower.
A stone pagoda built by the Huan Empire to honor the god of heaven. Because it was made of stone, it was free from the effects of fire.
There was barely any space behind the hunter as he was at the top.
“··· ···”
The hunter narrowed his eyes. He had definitely not misheard that voice just now.
I’ve never heard or seen anything like the devil hearing voices. Moreover, it’s not like there aren’t beings that fly in the sky.
‘I guess I’ll have to avoid it for now.’
The hunter quickly hid himself in the darkness. It was better to run away than to fight.
So he jumped down from the stone pagoda. If he continued like this, he would land safely on the ground······
-Tadat!
“hmm?!”
But that couldn’t be done. The hunter couldn’t help but feel embarrassed.
He clearly jumped from the stone pagoda, so it would have been natural for him to land on the ground.
But look at it now. It’s not on the ground, but on the stone pagoda we climbed up earlier.
It was as if someone had moved it by force. It was truly strange, even though the body was hidden.
“Who are you!”
The hunter shouted, feeling a sense of crisis. When he saw this kind of ‘prank’, he knew that it must be something stronger than him.
Who on earth would do something like this? As a hunter, I couldn’t understand it.
“I’ll ask you a question before I tell you my real name.”
“Who are you······! Ugh?!”
The hunter was forced to kneel for a moment after shouting.
Because a terrible pressure was pressing down on my shoulders, making it difficult to even raise my head.
I was completely overwhelmed by the simple energy. I’ve felt this energy several times.
‘Sir, no way······!’
The hunter slowly raised his head with all his might. When he raised his head, the woman who had not been there until just now was standing there proudly.
Unlike the hunter who had set foot on the stone pagoda, the woman was actually stepping on empty air.
Although her body was wrapped in black, her curves as a woman could not be hidden.
Furthermore, she has a beauty that is both dignified and noble. Above all······
“Okay. Now, let me ask you a question.”
“Ugh······!”
“Where did you take your wife’s companion?”
There was a deep ‘interest’ in his shining purple eyes.
*****
The palace that we entered without any restrictions.
The imperial palace, where numerous officials and people would normally come and go, was as quiet as a mouse.
“oh my god······”
“Who the hell······”
That would be the case, since all the palace personnel had turned into cold corpses.
People of all ages and genders were found bleeding to death on the floor, and some were even alive.
Even that one was so badly injured that he passed away shortly afterwards. In fact, most of the people in the palace were dead.
‘If this happens······ the rebellion will end and the Huan Empire will be shaken for a while?’
No matter how corrupt it may be, the Imperial Palace is the palace of the Huan Empire. It is the place where the country’s state affairs are handled and future plans are made.
The fact that all the people in that government agency are dead… means that the pillars of the country are on the verge of collapse.
If this is the case, even if Dan Ye-rin becomes the emperor, it won’t be very meaningful. After all, an emperor can’t do anything without the help of his subjects.
Dan Ye-rin also seemed to know this, as she made a complicated expression as soon as she saw the corpses strewn about the palace.
The foundation of the country was already shaken by the rebellion, and now even the pillars have collapsed.
Even if he becomes the emperor, he will be an empty shell, not a puppet.
‘There’s never been anything like this in Soul World. Who the hell is it?’
I couldn’t help but feel nervous because the situation was so different from the original. I had no idea what would happen.
“Sir, surely His Majesty······”
“Don’t worry! His Majesty has his own guard.”
“Oh, right?”
The soldiers’ mutterings reached my ears. It had been a long time since they realized that this situation was far from normal.
The original emperor died of illness at the same time the rebellion began. Even if it wasn’t necessarily murder, it was a natural death.
But the soldiers were still worried and hurried to the audience room.
‘Dan Ye-rin······ didn’t seem to care at all.’
For Dan Ye-rin, the emperor is a more distant blood relative than anyone else. This means that she literally does not consider him her biological father.
That is understandable, as the emperor was a man who stood by and watched his children fight, and in fact encouraged them.
Looking at it this way, there are no good memories. Rather, he is one of the bystanders who sent Dan Ye-rin into hell.
‘It seems like the Emperor might not be all that safe either······’
The audience room arrived shortly after. As it was the imperial audience room, the size of the main gate was also enormous.
Additionally, the golden dragon drawn in the center indirectly indicated the emperor’s majesty.
“······It’s quiet inside.”
Lize spoke quietly. Even after reaching the audience room, there was no sign of movement beyond it.
Then she walked confidently to the front door and transformed her body.
-Phew!
A body that was torn apart by a light explosion. It was Lize in her Kwon Seong form, not her Saint form.
It seemed like it had been a long time since I had seen that, but for a moment, Lize placed both of her sturdy arms against the gate.
-Kikigigigi
Lize lightly pushed open the large gate. Thanks to that, she was able to see the scene behind it.
The inside of the audience room was surprisingly clean. It was a contrast to the corpses that were piled up right in front of the audience room.
But there was something that stood out even more. That was the throne where only the emperor could sit.
“That’s······”
“Who is sitting······”
Someone was sitting on that throne with his arms crossed. No, to be precise, both arms were crossed.
The ‘remaining arms’ were each in a different position, such as resting on the armrests of the throne or resting on the backrest.
The most striking feature is its head. As if to show that it was far from a normal human, the being sitting on the throne had three heads.
First of all, the body. Aside from the fact that the entire body was made up of black and white, the arms and eyes were a vivid ‘purple’ color.
“······I never expected this.”
While I was inwardly shocked at the sight of that being, Lize muttered softly as if she was in trouble.
Meanwhile, the being sitting on the throne slowly raised its body. With six arms and three heads, its body was also much larger than Lize’s.
Then, the ‘Purple’ being moved both arms as if dancing and soon clapped its hands.
-Tsk!
“damage!”
“Whoa!”
As soon as I saw her clapping, I quickly threw myself at Dan Ye-rin and knocked her down.
and······
-Phukk! Phukk!
The heads of the soldiers who couldn’t dodge in time exploded like watermelons. Two lives were taken with just a simple gesture.
On the other hand, Lize stood there proudly as if nothing had happened.
“As expected of a saint. She lives up to my expectations.”
“··· ···”
Despite the purple being’s strange words, Lize stared at the being in silence.
One of the leaders of the demons along with Lie. And the one with the strongest power on the demon side, Purple.

“Asura······”
Asura, the king of ghosts, was occupying the palace.
