How the Shadow of the Marquis Lives

Chapter 155

When Ravi absorbed all of his power, the Demon Dragon King’s body melted and disappeared.

Reminded of Pamela’s body for a moment, Sian looked there, but it wasn’t there.

Apparently, the Demon Dragon King took it with him when he left.

‘I said it was a contract, so I’ll keep it on my own.’

At first, I had no choice but to believe that.

Now, I couldn’t go after him to find Pamela’s body, and even if I did, it would be a problem.

Whatever the circumstances, it was he who killed Pamela.

How could he go to hand over Pamela’s body to Shamilla?

‘later… … Shall we go check it out?’

For the time being, promising the future, Xian collapsed onto the grass as it was.

Was it because the tension was relieved after the battle? A tremendous pang of pain rose from the pierced stomach.

Itching, hot, terrible pain, like being eaten by tiny bugs.

I blocked it with ice, but the pain doesn’t go anywhere.

“Are you okay?”

A ghostly voice was heard from a distance.

Xian looked back helplessly there, and the demon was also lying face down in the bush.

It feels like my wrinkles have increased more than before and my white hair is thicker.

He, too, was not in a normal state.

“Deaf ears.”

“I am fine. Get some rest.”

“It’s not enough for me to take a break, but is there any medicine that works well for trauma?”

Without pretentiousness, Xian asked if there was any medicine.

It was because I thought that if I was bluffing, I would go to the real goal.

“There is a vegetable garden near the house. Let’s just take a breath and go.”

“I see.”

Xian turned his nerves away from the rising pain and looked up at the sky.

The sky, which had turned gray with the appearance of the Demon Dragon King, returned to blue with the departure of the demon.

And a swaying gate visible on the ground below.

The passage to the present world left open by the Dragon King.

It will remain for a while, so you can just heal your wounds and go in.

Xian tried to close his eyes after tidying up like that.

‘Come to think of it.’

A sudden thought came to my mind and I looked at the gate.

‘Which way is that connected?’

Xi’an entered Hell from the side of Glacier Baengnyeong, and must return there.

Wouldn’t it be necessary to take Psyche and have an in-depth interview with the queen?

However, when I thought about it, there was no guarantee that the passage opened by the Dragon King was connected to Glacier Baengnyeong.

‘It’s probably not deep in the sea or in lava.’

I don’t think the Demon Dragon King would act so petty.

Well, now that I had absorbed the power of Psyche and the Dragon King, I was confident that I would be safe even if I fell in such a place.

‘Because I can go again if I come to another place.’

After arranging that, Xian closed his eyes.

Recently, no, the most difficult day in my entire life has passed.

* * *

Xian and Guima were recuperating side by side at Guima’s house.

After hearing the full story of the battle, Psyche was greatly surprised by Xian’s report.

-what? At best, I thought it would be fortunate if I ran away well, but I said I won?

It was shocking news for her.

There was an unidentified strong human called a ghost next to him, but to defeat the Demon Dragon King.

– I didn’t completely win. It ended up being a draw because he ran away.

– I’m glad that’s all. And you said your body was completely taken away? If that’s the case, it’s the same as winning.

Surprised by Xian’s victory, and eventually rejoicing at his own survival.

Then, Psyche urged him to quickly return to the present world. He said he had to go see what Seol-ah was like.

It is said that their lives are not in danger because the strings of the contract are connected safely.

Still, the worry seemed inevitable.

Xian also wanted to go back quickly, but he couldn’t wait until his wounds healed.

So, I had to recuperate for a few days, and Psyche was watching every day so that it would not close in front of the gate made by the Dragon King.

and Xian.

– Puffy.

“Uh, uh. thanks.”

At one time, they were being nursed by headless knights who fought each other to death.

Pick herbs that are good for trauma from the garden next to the house, put them in a bowl and grind them.

Then, he mixed clean mineral water to make a paste and applied it gently to Xian’s wound.

On the side of the gwima, I pick up other herbs, boil them, and feed them.

It was a bit of a shocking scene to nurse a headless knight, but I got used to it over time.

Simultaneously with the body’s recovery, Xian was struggling to melt away the demon dragon king’s power.

‘There are many.’

The demon dragon king’s energy was more vast than any energy he had ever absorbed.

If the other energy was like a river, the Dragon King’s was like a great ocean.

The only similarity is the level of Psyche’s aura.

The inside of Xian’s body, where various energies were mixed, was truly a crucible of chaos.

‘If it was in the past, I might have been swept away by the energy of the Dragon King or Psyche.’

If it was a previous draft, it might have been.

But now it was different. I had the experience of accepting Psyche’s energy once, and more than anything, I learned the yam sword.

The description of the yam sword, which was created to not lose oneself in the sea of all kinds of demons, helped Xian to find the center in the midst of countless energy.

‘Aura extracted from other demons or warlocks, a giant’s energy, and the aura of the elixir.’

Numerous such energies were randomly mixed inside Xian.

If it was like before, it didn’t have much of an impact because everyone was quiet, but it was completely disturbed as the energy of Psyche and the Dragon King invaded.

Xian took the center of those energies and organized them one by one.

‘Rather, it’s comfortable because I have the power of the Dragon King.’

Because the demon dragon king’s energy is overwhelming in both quality and quantity, other energy comes easily.

As long as he could induce the dragon king’s energy well, there was no big problem in arranging the other energy.

With her eyes closed, Xian sorted and disassembled all the mixed energy. Focusing on the energy of the dragon king and Psyche, it swallowed up all the miscellaneous energy.

That’s how I made all the energies alone.

The energy of a blazing dragon and the energy of a cold ice snake.

The two interlock with each other and circulate. They weren’t mixed, but they were woven together and spinning as if they were one body.

When Xian opened his eyes after all the work was done.

He could feel three pairs of eyes looking down at him.

The old man, the little snake, and the headless knight.

“… … What are you doing?”

“Are you awake?”

“Yes what. I must have been losing my mind for a moment.”

Xian stood up from the bed, frowning slightly.

Then he suddenly remembered and touched his stomach.

No pain at all. When I looked, the hole that had been opened was completely filled.

Only scars remained.

[It’s been a month.]

“what?”

[You’ve been sleeping for a month.]

Psyche said that with her pouting lips. Like why are you waiting so long?

Xian couldn’t help but blink.

I think I fell asleep for a day or two at most, but a month has passed?

“In the meantime, this guy has been constantly applying the medicine.”

The demon patted the headless knight on the shoulder and spoke.

“thanks.”

As Xian expressed his gratitude, the knight slightly moved his shoulders. Since it has no head, it seems to express opinions with its shoulders.

“are you okay?”

Xian checked his physical condition.

Once all wounds are healed. But since I hadn’t eaten or drank in a month, there must be a problem.

“Okay… … That’s fine.”

But there were no problems whatsoever. I only felt a little hungry and thirsty, but I didn’t feel weak or weak at all.

Rather, it was much lighter and stronger than before.

Seeing that, the ghost laughed.

“Congratulations. It looks like you didn’t just sleep all day for a month.”

Xian got up from his seat and opened and closed his fists.

It is said that he had been lying down for a month, but his condition was excellent.

‘My body is completely healed.’

Then, the reason to remain in the hell world is gone.

“Are you going?”

the ghost asked.

“What are you thinking about?”

“I haven’t taken his head yet.”

He answered Xi’an’s question with grim eyes.

There was an irresistible tenacity in his eyes.

“He kindly informed me of his location and disappeared, so I don’t have to worry about missing him.”

“Are you okay? Because he abandoned his body, ordinary swords do not work.”

“It’s hard with my current sword. So we have to find a way.”

Gwima talked. I feel like I’m coming now, but I’m going to learn magic.

It wasn’t that I was going to learn magic and kill him with magic.

He wants to learn magic and make a new sword again.

For a single knife cut to slash a guy with only a soul left.

“You will return to the present world, so goodbye like this.”

The ghost held out his hand. Xian held her hand.

time over one year. I spent most of the hell realm with him. He didn’t just send it, he even bought a sword.

He was also a comrade who struggled with the Demon Dragon King.

“I don’t know if that will ever happen, but if you come back here, I’ll see you.”

“That’s it. If possible, bring delicious meat and alcohol.”

Say goodbye to the demon and shake hands with the headless knight who took care of him.

Xian came up to the ground with Psyche wrapped around her wrist.

There, the gate that the Demon Dragon King had opened was still there.

Cyan jumped in without hesitation, and the gate that swallowed him and Psyche eventually slowly disappeared from the hell world.

* * *

Xian came out of the gate and looked around.

concerns I had in the first place. I didn’t know if the gate would be open somewhere other than Glacier Baengnyeong.

‘Not really.’

Sure enough, it was a completely different place.

Unlike Glacier Baengnyeong, where you can see only white snow and ice in the cold that can cut your skin, Xian appeared in a tropical forest.

It’s not cold, but rather hot and humid.

There were densely grown trees and vines, and the cries of birds and insects filled the room.

It was the exact opposite of the quiet glacier Baengnyeong.

[oh! Where is this!]

“First of all, it’s not Glacier Baengnyeong.”

[That bastard, where the hell did you open the passage! If you knew I was there, shouldn’t you have been sensible and opened it with the glacial white spirit!?]

“The Demon Dragon King wouldn’t know that I came up from the present world with you.”

[huh? Was it?]

“I’ve never spoken to you, and I don’t even know that you and I used to know each other.”

Perhaps the Demon Dragon King thought that he came to the hell world in some way and then met Psyche.

So, there must have been no idea to open the passage with Glacier Baengnyeong.

After looking around for a while, Xian soon began to guess where this place was.

There was also the last thing the demon dragon king said, so it’s probably almost certain.

at that time.

-Kooung!

A roaring sound like something huge was tossing over.

When I went to the place where I heard the sound, I saw a large wild boar lying down with its eyes closed.

In front of him was a boy.

The eyes of the guy and Xian met.

“uh? Master?”

He’s grown a lot since the last time I saw him, wearing a wide-brimmed uniform.

It was Shan Asla, with tiger-like ears and tail.
