Chapter 27
He could feel the crushing feeling through his foot and Dohyuk thought that this feeling of hitting someone was something he couldn't get used to . Julian and Dohyuk's bodies both fell . Dohyuk used his landing move to steady himself . The impact had some shock, but it was bearable . He then turned, to Julian who was lying flat on the ground . Dohyuk didn't receive a message that told him Julian was dead yet, but his top of the skull was crushed in, obviously destroyed from the kick .
'Gaiter . '
The gaiter was wrapped with a rope on Julian, and it seemed like it would be difficult to quickly take it off .
'I can't just digest it but…'
Dohyuk then turned around and faced the others . These were the men Julian had brought and he had no way to fight all of them at once, but Dohyuk readied himself .
"Anyone . Come fight me . "
The Great Emperor made a declaration and the men began running back . Those were just some ordinary men who could not overcome their fear to stand against the once mightiest person on Earth .
However, some people among the crowd did not run .
'They are trying to fight . '
Dohyuk felt some of them . As the fleeing group went further away, the remaining four 'beasts' stood .
A well-built man with an iron helmet .
A high school boy in his uniform .
A woman with blonde-dyed hair .
A short woman in her mid-40s .
They weren't Julian's officers . Rather, they were those who always looked for a chance to betray Julian .
They did not charge headfirst at Dohyuk and glanced at each other . Even they weren't friends with one another .
"…First . "
The middle-aged woman spoke . "We will fight together and catch him alive . We can discuss on the 'share' later . "
"I agree . "
"Me too . "
"Good . "
The four of them then tried closing in, but Dohyuk began running away .
"GET HIM!" the high school boy shouted as he ran out and the blonde woman followed . After about 10 seconds of running, they realized they were the only ones following Dohyuk . Dohyuk then stopped and turned .
"…Two . "
Dohyuk sighed in relief . It seemed they had different motives . He thought those with a 2nd Nature would not take the risk to go after Dohyuk, and he was right . Beyond the teenager and the woman, the man and middle-aged woman were fighting over Julian's body . What they were after was the gaiter .
"Those idiots!"
They became tense . They still had the upper hand in numbers but the number had decreased to two . Dohyuk charged in .
The other two fought over the gaiter .
"UGH…"
It was the man who fell .
"You think I'm weak because I'm a woman?"
"You b*tch…"
She was really powerful . It seemed she had received power from a god that was related to magic . The man's wasn't bad, but it was useless against magical damage .
"You should've known better . "
The woman struck the man with her magic against man's stomach, which threw him a couple of meters away . Instead of finishing him off, the woman decided to take the gaiter first .
"Dammit…!"
The man clawed the sand in rage, but he soon felt something .
"Huh…?"
It was a glass bottle filled with salt . It was that Dohyuk threw from above . Was it a coincidence that it was here? To the man's eye, a message that Dohyuk hadn't seen before popped up .
[Consuming a little will make one forget unneeded emotions for battle . It comes with consequences which… butttt youuuu shouldn'ttt think aboutttt thattttt!!!!]
It wasn't like when he saw other items . It was distorted and was getting even more distorted .
[Eattttt theee f*****ck uppppp!]

The men opened his helm and consumed the powder from the bottle . The effect was instantaneous .

-Exceeded limitations
-Proceeding to 2nd transformation
There were stats had never seen in his previous life, but it didn't matter .
[NICEEE!]
The man stood up . He couldn't feel any pain . He turned and saw the woman pulling out the gaiter .
Dohyuk gritted his teeth in front of two bodies . One of his wrists hurt because he'd lost his hand, and it was hard to grab the weapons that belonged to the attackers . Dohyuk then turned away and began walking to where Julian was . The winner was decided . The middle-aged woman's dead body was crushed as the man kept kicking and stomping on it . He then turned to Dohyuk . His red eyes were visible through his helmet .

Dohyuk said, "You should've run away with the gaiter . "
"I thought about doing that, but there's no need . "
The man flashed the salt bottle . Dohyuk immediately recognized what it was .
"Whatever this is, it's great!"
The man consumed more salt .

The man shook as if he just consumed a drug and put the bottle into his pocket .
"Amazing! It's like my mind is cleared of pain or fear! No other drug can do this!"
"…I don't think it's free . "
"HUH? Did you see the description>?"
The man became curious, "But it doesn't matter!"
And then he charged at Dohyuk with incredible speed . Dohyuk calmly reacted; he dodged and kicked the man's leg and body . He destroyed the man's bones and inner organs .
"Doesn't matter!"
Since he couldn't feel any pain, the man closed in and held onto Dohyuk's arm .
[Touch that grants power]
It was a Nature that increased strength while touching the opponent . The man slammed down Dohyuk down . His two legs pinned Dohuk's legs along with his left arm . The man used his other hand to pin Dohyuk's head down .
"It's amazing! SEE! I even beat you!"
Dohyuk raised his free arm, but there was no hand, so all it could do was to smear its blood on the helm .
"Haha, you are struggling . How about I give you a chance?"
"Tell me, why should I let you live?"
But even if the man didn't ask, Dohyuk was going to say it anyway .
"Digest . "
The man flinched and checked the hand . There was nothing on it . The light then shined from where bodies of the high school boy and the blonde woman were . His hand which was holding onto teenager's dagger was waiting for the master's signal .
Then, with the new hand that appeared, Dohyuk grabbed the helm .
"Digest . "
The helmet disappeared and Dohyuk grabbed the man's face .
"AAAARGH!"

The man began pressuring Dohyuk's head .
"YOU FAILED! I CANNOT FEEL-"
But that was it . Without the helmet, he was much weaker than Dohyuk . Besides, his Stamina was much weaker . His pinning did no damage against Dohyuk, while his head was getting destroyed . Soon, the power that pushed Dohyuk down was released .
>
"…What?"
Dohyuk became confused . He acquired only hundreds of coins when he killed Eunho . The man with the helmet wasn't as strong . The reason why he was pinned down was due to the fact that it was part of the plan .
As he looked down, a bottle dropped from man's pocket . It was the bottle from Ka'Kudenol . Dohyuk picked it up . He couldn't see anything, but he heard a voice .
"…Damn . "
He then opened the bag and threw it in . He didn't want to carry it around, but he just had the feeling that if he threw it away, it would become another unknown threat . He then looked down at Julian . Dohyuk raised his feet to finish him off, but he had to kick elsewhere . There wasn't anything, he hit something .
"Ugh…"
Namgun appeared . He was so careful in his hiding to kill Dohyuk .
"How…"
"I can see you . "
To be precise, he felt his presence .
"You're shaking . "
Namgun was shaking, but so was Dohyuk . Ever since he fought against Julian, he was terrified .
"Tell me . "
"W-what…"
"What's next?"
Dohyuk pointed to the cave .
"What was Julian Dekin after in this cave?"
Treasures that Julian sought after to become like Dohyuk . Namgun couldn't resist and began talking .Please download our sponsor's game to support us!
