The World of Sound - Chapter 6
Only Krnovel
Chae-jaeng chae chae chae-!!
The fight, which started by surprise, was quite fierce.
Even though the Black Tigers had an overwhelming numerical advantage because a huge crowd had gathered in the manor to celebrate the wedding, the damage increased rapidly.
Already, more than 30% of those who have fallen to the poison have been cured, and more than half of those who have not been able to properly perform their duties have been cured.
The inaction of those who launched a surprise attack was not overwhelming, being at the level of first- and second-rate, but with the addiction and melee added to the chaos, the damage was bound to be great.
Because it was a non-celebratory event, most attendees, except for the guests, were not wearing weapons.
“Ugh. If only I had my sword… …!”
“Poison, you deadly bastards!”
This is because carrying a weapon when attending a banquet could easily lead to misunderstandings.
Even among shamans, one of the old sects, it has become a custom to hang a sword on the Haegeomji before entering the mountain.
Claiming that you cannot put down your weapon when entering a sect is interpreted as either thinking that you are not capable of protecting yourself in that sect or that they might attack you in return.
“What kind of guys are they!”
“Do you even know where this is!!”
“You are shameless!”
But not everyone was like that.
The Black Tiger’s men naturally carried weapons, and the guests who attended the Black Tiger’s invitation also carried their own weapons without being restricted by such etiquette.
For them, whether or not they carry weapons is of little significance, or it is a relationship of trust built on that much faith.
There were quite a few among them who were not yet addicted, but because the place was so crowded, they could not easily demonstrate their skills.
“… … .”
But even though it was such a favorable situation, the condition of the villains wasn’t all that good.
Perhaps because the meal was brought forward significantly from the schedule, the reinforcements that should have arrived at the same time as they started their work have not yet arrived.
Even if the unmanned personnel of the Black Tiger Room were like that, those who were invited as guests were each people who occupied a place in their own realm.
There were also some masters who had enough poison to get involved in the fight, and in particular, Black Tiger Ark and Iron Lion Majin were pretending to be calm because they were not the masters they could do anything about, but they were trembling inside.
They are worried that they might be abandoned.
“Scatter! Let’s fight as hard as we can!”
But it’s already a symbol.
It was best to hold out since the enemy would not allow us to escape like this, but we did not do the foolish thing of crouching in formation.
Because they know that the moment they form a defensive formation, they will be attacked by concentrated attacks from their enemies.
Even if the defense was tightly packed, there was no guarantee that it would be able to withstand the attacks of the highest-level master, Black Tiger Ark, or the highest-level master, Majin.
That’s why they persistently squeezed their way into the crowd. They desperately moved to mix in with them and provoke a melee, and to not give them a chance to surround them.
“Is this your doing?”
Even so, if the margins were to be made, it would all be sorted out in an instant.
He was also addicted, but it was a pretty strong poison, so even if he swung his internal energy, the poisoning symptoms did not easily subside. However, even if he swung some of his internal energy and locked up the poison, he had the power to destroy them at any time.
But instead of rushing towards the attackers, Margin walked in front of Cheonhwa.
I questioned whether this situation was what he intended.
Perhaps that was also the reason why he thought that the fact that he had been hit by him twice was because of an addiction he was unaware of.
Otherwise, there was no way he could have lost to this bloody bastard.
“Why would I bother doing something like that? If I had something to do, I would have just cracked their heads open.”
“… … .”
Even though he was enduring the momentum of the overflowing margin of life, Cheonhwa simply chewed on the duck meat as if nothing had happened.
It really had nothing to do with this matter, but even if I were to target the Black Tiger, there was no reason to do such a tiresome and petty thing.
“Oh, I got it. Why, can I get you a drink?”
What are these things called Black Tiger Room and Black Tiger Room Ju?
When Margin was unable to do anything due to the indifferent response, Cheonhwa grabbed a bottle of alcohol that had flown nearby during the chaos.
He offered Margin a drink, showing that it was a waste to give it to her even though it wasn’t his, and when he got no response, he started blowing on the bottle.
It seemed as if everyone was oblivious to the fact that it might contain poison.
“Aww! Good. It’s a bit spicy, but it’s still delicious!”
Then, symptoms of poisoning appear on the skin.
But the symptoms disappeared in an instant.
It was a move to show that he had detoxified or expelled the poison with his own abilities, rather than taking any antidote or such in advance.
“… … That’s it. Let’s talk again later.”
With that, Margin was able to put aside his doubts about Cheonhwa for now.
Although Cheonhwa was still full of unknown and suspicious things, it was not the time to fight with him right now.
“Kwaaah!”
“There’s an enemy right in front of us… …!”
When Margin turned around again, this time there was a loud commotion coming from the main gate.
“Today, the Black Tiger will disappear from the Guizhou Martial Arts Forest!”
Pang-gur-gur-
BANG!!
Something that flies in and explodes in the air.
It was none other than the signboard of Heukhobang.
Someone threw it and released their internal energy, destroying it.
Breaking down the signboard of a sect was tantamount to making a life-or-death decision, and was effectively a declaration of all-out war.
“You guys… … !”
“It’s Baekungbang!”
“Run away!!”
Baek Woong Bang.
What appeared was a huge Sapha force that divided Gaeyang with Heukhobang.
They are known to be on bad terms with the Black Tigers, as they divide the region into two, and they have revealed themselves as if confessing to being behind this incident.
`
“How dare you do such dirty things! Are you guys so ignorant?”
“Unmanned. Sapa’s.”
The Black Tiger Lord was furious at the sight of those guys appearing with a snarl, but Baek Woong Bang was a group of unmanned soldiers from Sapa.
He will do anything to win.
That’s why they were confident even when using poison, and they smiled brightly as if they were glad that their plan worked.
“Yes. I admit I overestimated you. But your arrogance will tighten the leash. Look at who has come here!”
But Black Tiger Ark was still confident.
Because Baek Woong Bang had similar strength, power, and martial arts skills to them, they had been growling at each other but had not been able to easily challenge or win, but today, this place was not only for them, but also for the many masters and subordinate factions who were with them.
Even if you were poisoned by an unknown poison, the power struggles of the martial arts world were different from those of the military.
In the end, since it was a fight between masters, he believed in the power of the masters who were with him.
Especially since Margin was here, I could be sure that whatever scheme they came up with would be more damaging.
“I know. I know. But do you know? Who I’m with.”
“… … !”
But Baek Woong Bang Ju also had a corner of faith.
With the roar of Baek Woong Bangju, a group of people behind him took a step forward.
Not only that, but numerous warriors had already climbed up onto the walls of the manor, as if they were secretly surrounding it.
That alone doesn’t give us an exact idea of their level or number, but the fact that he said that must mean that he was confident he could deal with them all.
Even the margins.
“What do you mean, the leftovers?”
However, those who had appeared with such great momentum could not help but flinch at the words of the person standing next to the Black Tiger.
Wire mesh margin.
He has surpassed the wall of climax and reached the pinnacle, and is considered one of the top 100 masters of Sapa, so he would be able to take on the entire Baekwoongbang alone.
“Are you confident that you can do anything to this body with a little poison?”
As he stepped forward, confident that the poison they had prepared would not cause any harm to him, Baek Woong Bangju’s calm face hardened slightly.
I prepared thoroughly, but if it’s the Iron Lion margin, it’s bound to be a difficult opponent no matter what I prepare.
But that’s why I had to end it here.
If he sends him back, or if he clears the Black Tiger Room in his absence and then seeks revenge, then there really may be no way to stop him.
“Margin… … Huh. Did you think we weren’t even prepared to pluck the lion’s nose hair?”
“Nose… … hair?”
“Pfft.”
That is why Baek Woong Bang Joo was able to confidently stand up to the power of Ma Jin without being intimidated.
Although it wasn’t a nose hair, he had no hesitation in stimulating Margin, who had already plucked out the hair that was his pride and joy.
Whether it was intended or not.
“Please come out.”
It wasn’t just Dokman who prepared to deal with the margins that were certain to come his way.
Since they had invited a master to face them, they could confidently provoke him.
“Hehehe. It’s been a while since I’ve hunted a real expert.”
“If you have the Iron Lion Margin, you deserve our combined attack.”
“In the end, it will be a sacrifice that raises the value of our name.”
There were three people walking out, staggering about.
However, they had the same face as one person and the weapons they held were unique.
Dual-wheeled axe, chain sickle, and halberd.
In a world where swords and swords are the main weapons, the three brothers who use those weapons as their main weapons step forward without a care in the world even though they know of Majin’s existence.
“Gwijusamnachal?”
Someone muttered their nicknames at the mention of that undeniable characteristic.
Although each individual’s martial arts skills were at their peak, they were able to defeat even the most advanced masters through the combination of the abnormality of the deformed weapon and exquisite breathing.
Thus, the three of them were listed together as one of the 100 greatest masters of Sapa.
It was a move prepared by Baek Woong-bang to grab their margin.
“Say it again. What do you mean, the little guys?”
However, the margins were not at all discouraged by their presence.
Although he had heard of them, he looked down at them and repeated the same thing.
Even they call them leftovers.
“… … Let’s see if you can still spit out something like that after having your limbs torn off.”
At those words, Guijusamnachal became enraged, but did not attack right away.
Even for them, it would have been impossible to confront the Iron Lion Margin head-on.
So a strange standoff occurred.
It seemed like they were about to rush to kill each other at any moment, but they knew that their opponent was stronger, so they couldn’t make the first move.
However, the Heukhobang side could not come forward rashly.
Because what they need now is time.
Some were already gasping for breath as their addiction symptoms became severe, but those who had built up some internal energy were suppressing the toxicity by vigorously swinging their internal energy.
It took some time, as I would be able to use more than 70% of my usual strength once that task was finished.
“Haam.”
The one who broke the suffocating tension that was flowing even in the silence was none other than Cheonhwa.
I got bored with them hesitating, unlike their momentum.
“Ahem. Don’t worry about me and just keep doing what you’re doing.”
Because of that, Cheonhwa, who received cold stares from many people, felt awkward for no reason and covered her mouth and waved her hand slightly.
‘They say that half of a fight in the sewer is an argument of words. Ugh.’
I have no intention of interfering, but I also have no intention of avoiding the fight, so I am staying put.
‘They might try to lower your wages by nitpicking for no reason.’
Of course, there were clearly other intentions, but what was certain was that they could not cause any harm to themselves.
Because I was too strong for that.
“You guys are so confident, but you lack the spirit. Come forward. Who will die first?”
At that moment, Margin stepped forward again.
Whoever comes forward will die first.
He provoked them as if it were a natural thing to do.
“… … Let’s see how long you can continue to be arrogant. Oh, by the way.”
Although the situation was already on the brink of collapse, Baek Woong Bang Joo tried to maintain a smile as if he had more faith in something.
He took out the last desperate measure he had prepared.
“Do you still think that everyone here is on your side?”
betrayer.
It signaled that there was a traitor within.
“?!”
With that, Margin’s eyes quickly turned back towards Cheonhwa.
Could it be that the real thing they prepared was Cheonhwa?
I still believe that it is not a complete defeat, but if it were to come back, would I be able to guarantee a clear victory?
The anxiety and fear already engraved in his body and mind made his spine tingle for a moment.
“Ugh!?”
“You, dare… … !”
Phew!!
At that moment, a call came from the other side.
Some of the sect members who were considered to be subordinates of the Black Tiger Faction suddenly turned and started attacking the Black Tiger Faction members who were nearby, and while the attention was focused on them, traitors also emerged from the VIPs.
Their weapons were so evenly matched that it was difficult to tell which was better, except for the margin, but it was difficult to prevent a surprise attack that was carried out while they were poisoned and had let their guard down.
Some died as they were, while others staggered with minor and major injuries, which became the starting point for another battle.
“Hit it!!”
At the same time, Baek Woong Bang’s unmanned forces began a full-scale offensive.
While wielding swords and running wild, each of them swung a small pouch in one hand.
“Poison again!!”
“You guys are like dirty bastards!!”
“Haha. Those who got hurt must be stupid!!”
Now, those who are spreading poison so openly without hesitation have already taken the antidote and are not showing any symptoms of poisoning.
“Shoot!!”
Not only that, he pulled his prepared bow and took their souls out, showing that he had no intention of ending this fight with a fair confrontation between two unarmed men.
If you are a second-rate or higher unmanned unit, it wouldn’t be that difficult to focus and block arrows, but that is only if you are prepared.
Those who were unable to move properly due to addiction failed to shoot arrows and were injured, and even if they managed to shoot arrows, they had to endure the attacks of Baekungbang masters who immediately attacked them.
And it was the same with the Cheonhwa mixed among their crowd.
“They say that when these guys are eating, not even a dog will touch them!”
Cheon Eum Shin Gong.
Tanju’s chapter.
Absolute silence.
When Cheonhwa swept the gold with an annoyed expression, it all bounced off without reaching him.
“Kuaaaah!!!”
“Come together! Form a phalanx and help each other out!!”
However, the situation was not very good for the other Black Tiger Room members besides him.
Although the few who could be called experts were relatively healthy, Cheonhwa could not help but make a very serious expression when he saw that the Black Tiger’s power would weaken as time passed and that it could eventually lead to its annihilation.
“Wait a minute, but if I do this, will I get my wages?”
Because if they all die, I won’t get paid for my work today.
“I haven’t even received the money that scammer promised me… … This is really annoying.”
Even the money that Margin had promised to give was ultimately given to Black Tiger Ark.
Cheonhwa had no intention of interfering, but this was bound to be a serious problem.
If I go back here and give up, I’ll have to spend more time paying off the debt my damn master left behind.
Two nyang of silver may be small, but it was also a large amount, so even if he worked as a musician, unless it was a special event like this, he might have to be held for quite a long time.
If it were a position where one’s skills could be recognized, one could accept the money for just one performance, but such positions are not common.
“Die!!”
At that moment, one of the Baekwoongbang’s masters jumped towards Cheonhwa.
Since the Black Tiger’s warriors had chosen to stick together and hold out, there were still some soldiers left from the White Tiger’s side, but it seems that they mistook him for a warrior invited by the Black Tiger’s side after seeing Cheonhwa use an unknown move to block all the flying arrows.
Woohoo!
A dark energy rising dimly.
It was a move that showed that a first-class unmanned force was giving it its all without underestimating its opponent.
“Oh, just stay still and think about it!”
Boom!!!
However, the next moment, it was the drone that had rushed in and fallen back.
Cheonhwa, who was mumbling something with her lips quivering while holding a piece of unripe duck meat in one hand, grabbed the gold with the other hand and hit him in the face.
That one move made the guy quiet down.
He just lay on the floor, shaking intermittently.
‘But what if it doesn’t work out? Hey, everyone is weak and falling down!’
But Cheonhwa couldn’t come up with an answer right away.
It was because the odds of victory, which had seemed set to fall as Margin began to run wild in the gaps between them, had returned to a fairly even level.
Then, wouldn’t it be okay if I didn’t step forward?
Cheonhwa chewed meat and drank alcohol in an irritated manner, as if he was dying from annoyance.
“Coolook!”
“Ahhhhhhh! Today, the world will finally know who is superior, your Black Tiger Blade or my White Bear Blade!”
“Damn it. If only my physical condition had been normal, someone like you… …!”
At that time, the situation of the Black Tiger Guard, which formed one axis of the battlefield along with Margin, became dangerous.
With some of his internal energy tied up due to repeated poisoning, he was unable to withstand the onslaught of Baek Woong Bang Ju, a master of the same level, and the poison spread.
‘No, why can’t you stop that?’
Cheonhwa’s reaction was that he couldn’t understand at all, but in fact, such a situation was natural.
Even though he forcibly squeezed out his internal energy, his internal energy was not used smoothly and the Tao he unfolded did not have enough power.
In that state, it was natural that they would lose against Baek Woong Bang Ju, who was difficult to guarantee victory even in perfect condition.
Kyaang!!
The Black Tiger Clan, which had been suffering losses and being pushed back, eventually lost its strength and faltered.
My heart opened wide, leaving a huge gap.
“It’s over!!”
A situation where your heart is pierced without you even having to look.
The only thing that could help him was the Gwijusamnachal who was using the Baekungbangdo as a shield and was trying to exploit any opening.
“I told you to stay still!”
At that moment, Cheonhwa intervened with an annoyed voice.
“If that guy dies, I won’t get my money!!!”
Cheon Eum Shin Gong.
Tanju’s chapter.
Annihilation of the coal mine.
Fighting!
What was bounced off was a single string.
The gold, carrying a huge amount of energy, shot an invisible energy towards the Baekungbangju.
