The Overlord of Blood and Iron

“Kuhuk…”

Kaiforce groaned in pain .

A perfect counter!

After grasping the perfect opportunity and landing a counterblow, Kang Chul-In continued to attack Kaiforce .

“You dare?!”

Even though Kaiforce cursed and tried to strike back, Kang Chul-In dodged every single attack .

He… dodged it?

Kaiforce was shocked inwardly .

These weren’t the movements of someone that had been one-sidedly beaten up .

More, attack more!

Kang Chul-In smiled inwardly .

Even though Kaiforce probably didn’t realize it, Kang Chul-In wasn’t attacking until after Kaiforce attacked first . Now that Oraclomind was activated, he was just responding to the attacks from Kaiforce and countering them .

Chulkuk, Chulkuk!

The sword in Kaiforce’s hands began to change shapes, becoming the shape of a greatsword .

But,

Charak!

Kang Chul-In’s sword reached Kaiforce’s body first, cutting him .

Puak!!

Parts of Kaiforce’s midsection were cut off, revealing purplish blood . Even though it wasn’t a fatal blow, it certainly dealt some damage .

“ . . . !”

Shock filled Kaiforce’s eyes .

“Die!!”

Kang Chul-In’s terrifying attacks continued on from there .

BANG!!

Kaiforce hit the ground, and with a terrifying sound, Kaiforce’s right-wing was cut open .

“Kuaa!!”

Once again, Kaiforce screamed in pain .

“You bastard!!”

Uung!!

Activating even more of his demonic qi, Kaiforce ran towards Kang Chul-In .

Nice!!!

Inwardly, Kang Chul-In cheered .

The stronger the attacks by Kaiforce were, the bigger of an attack Kang Chul-In would actually get to use .

He’s coming!!

Kang Chul-In didn’t remain off guard .

Instead, he remained calm and focused his senses on reading Kaiforce’s attacks .

Whik!!

Once again, Kang Chul-In dodged the attack of Kaiforce by not even a millimeter .

“ . . . !”

As Kaiforce once again was shocked,

Kuooo!!!

Whiii!!

Activating Vortex, Kang Chul-In’s blade reached Kaiforce’s chest .

“I-I won’t… I won’t forgive you!!!”

His skin ripped apart, Kaiforce growled towards Kang Chul-In .

“Oh?”

Kang Chul-In smirked .

“I guess you can work well as a sandbag, then . ”

“Shut up!!’

Even though Kaiforce once again ran towards Kang Chul-In in rage, the result was the same .

Puak!!

Blood sprayed out near Kaiforce’s throat . This time, it was for sure a serious blow .

“Kuu…”

But once again, Kaiforce didn’t fall . It seemed as if this ancient demon had infinite health .

Dammit!

Looking at this, Kang Chul-In couldn’t remain relaxed .

It was because the aftereffects of using the Oraclomind was starting to get to him .

His sight started to turn blurry and he heard weird noises from his ears too, making him dizzy .

I somehow need to get through that ridiculous defense of his…

There was no viable method for Kang Chul-In after cutting Kaiforce over and over and being unable to take him out . If this continued, there was a real chance that Kang Chul-In would be the one that got knocked out first .

“Krr… Krr…”

With terrifying noises, Kaiforce started to get close to Kang Chul-In once more .

“I… will kill… rip… you… apart!”

“ . . . ”

“Kill . . . ”

At this point, Kang Chul-In felt as if he was fighting against an immortal being, that wouldn’t die .

It was as if he was a zombie .

-Master .

At that moment, Mitra’s voice rang out once more .

-If you want to kill Kaiforce, you have to destroy his soul .

His soul?

-Currently, Kaiforce isn’t in his original body . So, if you do enough damage to make him go crazy or torture him, you might force him out of that body .

What do you want me to do when he won’t even collapse . . .

Kang Chul-In tried to complain to Mitra .

How could he do so much damage to Kaiforce and make him feel the pain?

Maybe…

He thought that it might be possible if he forced the mana from Overdrive into Kaiforce’s brain .

After all, a normal human would go crazy after just 5 minutes of this happening .

However, Kaiforce wouldn’t just simply let Kang Chul-In put the mana from Overdrive into its own body .

Still, there was no other way to win this battle; he had to at least to try .

“Die!!”

Kaiforce swung a chain towards Kang Chul-In .

“You dare!”

Immediately dodging the attack, Kang Chul-In poured down 3 consecutive Vortexes onto Kaiforce .

But even still Kaiforce didn’t fall, and withstood all of the attacks .

Fine, it’s whatever now!

After cursing inwardly, Kang Chul-In rushed out and grabbed Kaiforce’s throat and threw him onto the floor .

BANG!!

“Kuhuk!!”

As Kaiforce spat out blood,

Tuk!

Kang Chul-In didn’t stop there, and grabbed his head before pouring in the mana from Overdrive into him .

Pzzt, Pzzt!

Terrifying sparks started to erupt, and the remaining mana of Kang Chul-In started to attack the senses of Kaiforce’s brain .

“ . . . !”

Kaiforce suddenly stopped moving, and his eyelids flipped over,

“Huk… Huk…”

Before he started to cry like a little girl,

“Aghhh!!”

And scream like one, rolling on the floor .

“Kuhuk… Agh…”

Watching the monster that had overwhelmed even Kang Chul-In roll on the floor and cry like this, it was quite funny to see .

“What the hell?”

Kang Chul-In spoked, rather spooked .

-Well, it’s probably because it’s not his original body .

Mitra explained .

Is that so?

-Yeah, which is one of the reasons he didn’t realize I was approaching . He had to spend a lot of his strength to reshape his body into that of a human . Even now he was only able to use maybe a tenth of his original strength .

. . . !

-An ancient demon… if he was able to get his original body…

That doesn’t matter .

Kang Chul-In cut off .

Even though Kaiforce wasn’t in his original, strongest state, that could also be said for Kang Chul-In .

In 2030, the levels of the Overlords were around 180 to 190, making them incomparably stronger compared to now .

“Kuu… You damned… I’ll see you later . ”

Gritting his teeth, Kaiforce stretched his hand towards the demonic sword that had now fallen onto the floor .

-No!

Mitra warned .

I know that, too .

Kang Chul-In answered back .

He also had quick wits, and knew what Kaiforce was trying to do . He was trying to get back into the form of a sword, unable to withstand the pain .

Tuk!

But before he could, Kang Chul-In kicked the sword away .

“ . . . !”

Kang Chul-In laughed .

The fight was over .

Now, it was time to beat Kaiforce up .

------------

“Huh? Isn’t that woman Kim Sung-hee?”

Someone noticed the woman, and spoke .

“Kim Sung-hee of the Gusung Group?”

Just like the people had said, that woman was indeed the adventurer Kim Sung-Hee, and the daughter of the Gusung group’s president .

“A-Are you alright?”

“Don’t touch me!”

Even though a kind person tried to help her when she was about to fall, she pushed him away .

“G-Get away… D-Don’t come close…”

“What… is she high or something?”

“Crazy woman…”

It made sense that the bystanders thought this, as her image wasn’t good even from before .

But still,

“Director Kang…”

She only looked for Kang Chul-In, and headed into the building of the Galaxy Corporation .

Kim Sung-Hee couldn’t control her body well .

It wasn’t because of something like a car crash .

An adventurer like her was able to withstand accidents like that .

The problem was her lips .

Her almost black lips .

Black, purple spots that were on her face and her almost ash-like skin .

She looked as if she had been poisoned .

“W-What?!”

“Get away!!”

At that moment, adventurers that had been trained to defend the Galaxy Corporation rushed out at the noise .

“Dammit, who is it this time! Come here!”

And even Kwak-Jung, who had been preparing to go home came out and shouted .

“You… subordinate… of Director Kang…”

Recognizing Kwak-Jung, Kim Sung-hee spoke .

“Y-You… why are you…”

“Aleister… Rothschild… alliance…”

“ . . . !”

“I… got noticed… Curse… Aleister… Don’t touch me… Don’t…”

Saying that, Kim Sung-hee fainted .

Tuk…

“D-Dammit!!”

Kwak-Jung shouted .

“What are you doing!? Get the healers!! Quickly!!!”
