Chapter 44: Lets Go! (9) (2/2)

–Indeed, it radiated evil energy, but it sees here…

The White Horse General muttered in a low voice and looked down at Chi-Woo

–I don’t knohy the being had made a mess of this place, but it would have received considerable daood to be careful

—I’s would have realized that they couldn’t lay a hand on you on their own The next time they come after you, they will do it differently

The White Horse General pointed his guandao at where the clus

When Chi-Woo turned to look, he saw black haze blooed into hu Monsters in huone an to appear like the time he and Ru Hiana went to save Ru As co into existence now There were so lance Perhaps there were two hundred—no, more than three hundred in total

‘I didn’t think there would be that lanced at the White Horse General; he kneas a long shot, but he had to at least try

“Could you perhaps…”

–We can’t directly touch the living

The general’s tone was fir Chi-Woo should’ve already known It was no wonder that Chi-Woo’s talisorized as ‘the living’ Both his club and talisainst thehed There were ht of a way to deal with thely He’d learned from his past experience

“Thank you for your help, sir I will not forget this favor until the day I die” Although it was no tiratitude to the general first He couldn’t keep pushi+ng the general to do so he simply couldn’t do, and Chi-Woo didn’t knohen exactly he would need the general’s help again

–I’eneral said rather distantly Chi-Woo squeezed his eyes shut He thought the tieneral to ask Chi-Woo for a covenant That was how calling upon a heavenly being usually ended Unless he properly took a God into his body, he had to pay the rightful price for calling someone of this stature Just like how the three-thousand-year-old Dongfang Shuo prepared cere rare foods into a tohenever a death-ripper caet out of it at all costs, but he couldn’t say anything His head was in a ht of the White Horse General’s power

–Of course, I don’t expect anything from you at the moment

That surprised Chi-Woo

—Take this

The general took out sos and threw it to Chi-Woo Chi-Woo barely ed to catch it, and his eyes widened

‘A book?’ It was a book with a faded cover Chi-Woo immediately opened the book and looked up in surprise “What?” Translated by Kasyapa and Dharmaratna, it idely known as the first Buddhist scripture to be translated into Korean And it was the White Horse General who had protected and carried the scripture back to China on his white horse There was only one reason why the general would give Chi-Woo such a precious book

“Can I really…have this?”

—I have a duty to eneral said a into what that promise would entail

—It won’t always be this easy, though I responded this time out of my sense of loyalty, but the next ti price forChi-Woo to at least build a shrine next time Since it was a perfectly reasonable request, Chi-Woo nodded with a blank look on his face Although he couldn’t use it right away, he struggled to even put his gratitude into words after receiving such a tremendously valuable ite this place than you think Persevere

With those words, the White Horse General disappeared with his men It felt like a sturdy support had left Chi-Woo Of course, the general had wiped a great number of his enemies with him, but the new enemies that had appeared remained a problem While he conversed with the White Horse General, the cursed ones had stacked on top of one another to for consciousness Some ran out of the pile and blinked hard at Chi-Woo

“Hm Could you please back a bit away?” Chi-Woo turned to Eshnunna and the ed erous”

Instead of answering Chi-Woo, they pointed to the scene before the a sound Chi-Woo could understand why they were acting like this, but his lips still twisted into a wry s this for a bit!” Froed man like the wind He couldn’t be compared to the General White Horse, but the newcomer was extremely fast for a hued round and reached for the sword attached to his hip, but found nothing He looked to the side and blinked His sasbefore hi, and the sword sliced through theout a pool of blood It was an astonishi+ng sight

“Huh, Mr Ru Amuh?” Yes It was Ru Amuh who had beheaded the monster that tried to attack Chi-Woo Ru A froe as per Chi-Woo’s instructions “Why are you here?” Chi-Woo asked while letting out a big yawn

“I saw you leaving in the ht, so I secretly followed you,” Ru Amuh said with an aard sht It would have been unfair if Ru A handsome Thankfully, it seeht?” Ru Amuh asked with adenuinely awe-struck

“Yes I didn’t do much after all”

“You’re so huged and glanced at the pile as s broke off

“Anyway, there seems to be quite a lot of them”

Whoosh!+ Whoosh!+

Chi-Woo heard the currents of wind brought about by sword swings Before he could finish his sentence, all the cursed beings that were approaching them had already lost their heads one after another Chi-Woo rolled his tongue It was i his special powers, relying solely on his physical ability; as expected of a hero whose main weapon of choice was a sword and had resolved a star-cluster event before entering the Celestial Reale by ht while protecting another person” Ru Amuh shook off the blood froh”

“?”

“As you suggested, I didn’t coh to shut Ru Ah he had told Ru Aht some companions with him, it didn’t mean he should speak of this out loud in front of Eshnunna

Soon, they were joined by more heroes It was Ru Hiana and three more individuals

“What? What happened? Who are those guys?”

“Senior!” Ru Hiana shouted, and Chi-Woo responded by pointing at the pile of cursed beings in front of hi her to take care of the a beat, Ru Hiana joined in the fray It didn’t take long before the cursed beings and the heroes were engaged in a ferocious battle
