Chapter 268 (2/2)

It was the curse placed on him.

The curse placed on him with a wicked technique had caused Hwang Bo-sung terrifying pain every night.

Priest Luther had recovered more than half of the endurance, but the pain couldn’t be decreased.

However, he was going to get rid of the curse!

“Lord, really?”

“Yeah, all this while I thought of breaking the curse on you. Now that it is ready, we can do it.”

Luke saying that to Hwang Bo-sung, closed his eyes and sat down.

The moment he sat, magic began to manifest.

From what Hwang Bo-sung had said to Luke, the curse was done by a group referred to as Apostasy.

But Luke wasn’t aware about what kind of curse had been placed on the body.

But he was able to understand the power that marks the curse.

The power was Magi.

Luke was very familiar with the dark magic and the power of darkness.

‘I don’t know who taught them the dark magic or whether the Apostate witches knew it from the very beginning on how to handle curses, but solving can be simple. I can absorb it right away.’

Luke knew the powers of the demons and the dark magic so he could be able to absorb them.

Simple, black bind.

However, since the curse entered the body of Hwang Bo-sung, it was going to take sweet time to analyze it and to absorb it, Luke had to try to perform it as softly and harmlessly as possible.

Hweeing-!

The black bind stems began to come out from the ground and wrap themselves around Hwang Bo-sung’s body.

‘This, this is the Apostasy…!’

When the binds encircled themselves around the body of Hwang Bo-sung, he panicked trying to move.

“Do not move! This is a make or break!”

“Lord, but this is…”

“Trust me!”

Seeing seriousness in Luke’s eyes, Hwang Bo-sung hesitated and sat back down.

The stems completely covered the body of Hwang Bo-sung and began to absorb the Magi.

Originally, the black bind would suck in not just the Magi but the vitality of man, but when Luke was concentrating on using it, he carefully and delicately only absorbed the Magi in Hwang Bo-sung’s body.

‘Kuek, just absorbing it isn’t as easy as I thought.’

Sweat was dripping from Luke’s forehead.

It was like holding a giant sword to carve something out of a small wooden cube.

However, he continued to absorb the Magi that spread throughout the body of Hwang Bo-sung.

Ten minutes later.

When all the Magi was taken away from the body, the curse extinguished itself.

As soon as the black bind was released, Hwang Bo-sung jumped from his seat and began to wield his fists as if trying to test something.

Pang- pang!

Every time his fist went through the air, the air split.

The moment the fist went ahead, the wall in front of the fist trembled.

“What happened, Lord!”

“Did assassins…”

Surprised with the thundering sounds, Rakan knights went running into the room.

“It is alright. It is no big deal.”

Luke sent out the knights and watched Hwang Bo-sung’s martial arts closely.

His body seemed to be unfolding by converting mana in the body into attributes of lightning.

Mana, concentrated in the two fists along a certain path, showed terrifying power each time it changed to lightning.

If one was right there, it was possible for the man to get smashed with just the force.

‘Is this the true power of ‘Three Thunder God’s Boxing’?’

Luke had exchanged a few words with Hwang Bo-sung on his way to Albertville. In the process, he learned a few things about Moorim on the southern continent and the martial arts which he had learned.

The Hwang Clan’s martial arts were largely divided into martial and internal, and of them, the one Hwang Bo-sung had said to have learned was the ‘Three Thunder God Boxing’. And it was something that only the immediate members of the clan head could learn.

It was said that 300 years ago, martial King Hwang Bo-woong, had created Three Thunder God Boxing to break every form of other martial arts.

At present, Hwang Bo-sung was at the 8th stage of it.

Urrrng! Orrrng! Kwan Kwang!

For around thirty minutes, Hwang Bo-sung kept on moving his fists.

‘At last! How long has it been since I tried my fullest?!’

It was his first time since he had been tricked by Hwang Bo-Kwang, a year later from getting hit.

But the pain he felt in the meantime, made the year seem much longer.

Standing briefly and trembling, he knelt down and pleaded to Luke.

“Warrior Hwang Bo-sung. I swear on heavens and the earthly gods that I vow to repay the grace shown by the Lord.”

Though he decided to be Luke’s subordinate, he was still skeptical in mind, but with what had happened, he truly decided to serve Luke with everything.
