50 – Episode 50. Heavenly Horse

1.

“That.. is the celestial realm?”

“Cough..! Cough.. Cheonhee, what’s happening?”

“They are sending the weakened Black Dragon’s body to the celestial realm. Are you okay? Your voice sounds hoarse.”

“I’m fine.. cough..”

A massive gate appeared on the crimson moon. Gatekeepers looked down from between the clouds.

“Yacha? And that is… Woneo Daecheong.”

“This is madness! It’s the Black Dragon’s body!! Close the gate!”

“As promised, I’ve brought the Black Dragon’s corpse! Contact Yeomra!! We can’t take it now! Quickly, before it fully resurrects!”

“Don’t joke around! How can you say it’s dead just by looking at it!”

“hahahahaha..! Will you evade like this? If left alone, the Black Dragon will eventually ascend to the celestial realm and cause turmoil for Ox-Hwang. It won’t matter if it becomes your responsibility in the future!”

“Damn it…!”

The gate to the celestial realm opens.

“Ohh…!”

“So, it’s done.”

At that moment, an overwhelming pressure crushes the space more than the Black Dragon.

“It’s fortunate that I’m not late.”

“………!!!”

Crimson hair and eyes.

An immense amount of magic power.

The one and only strength grade beyond the supreme heaven-defying Jang Myeongsoon.

“You’ve provided quite an amusing event, O Hwang’s Child, Semmyeol Yacha, and Woneo Daecheong.”

“W-Who are you, Cheonhee?”

“…Eunho, follow me. We need to leave this place.”

A spark of hope flickers in the eyes of the Black Dragon.

Confusion consumes it, facing a magic power even greater than its own.

But simultaneously, it shows interest.

Undeniably fascinated by the mysterious eyes that are not like ordinary eyes.

“Do you react to me? In such a vile form. The woman who can be called my origin.”

The gatekeepers hastily try to close the gate they were opening.

《Falling from Heaven》

The heavenly horse raised its hand sharply like a beast and forcefully brought it down, scraping against the wall.

Then, the splendid gate of heaven resounded loudly and crumbled down.

*Kugu-gugu-gugu…*

Guardians of the gate rushed at the heavenly horse.

But no matter who they were in heaven, even if they were gods, they could not defeat a divine being of unbeatable strength.

《Reign of the Heavenly Horse》

“Behold. Although I am currently on Earth, if I so desire, the Earth will ascend to meet the heavens.”

*Jjeojeojeok!!*

The pit where the Black Dragon Emperor was buried shot up sharply and flew towards the crumbling gate of heaven.

“Sa.. save us!”

A sound of something exploding resonated as crimson blood gushed out between the ground and the shattered gate of heaven.

“Heavenly horse, you fool!!”

The remaining guardian rushed forward in sadness over the loss of a comrade, but as the heavenly horse emitted a black-purple aura, their entire body began to wither.

“Nooo!!!”

“Don’t try to run away. Especially Annihilation, the moment you take a step from that spot, my divine sword will pierce through you.”

“………”

“It seems you’ve changed quite a bit since we last met. Should I consider this bravery? Not showing fear even in front of me, I’ll give you praise.”

Ryu Chun-hee quickly analyzed the situation.

Behind them, the Black Dragon Emperor was recovering from their fall. They had to either send them back to the heavenly realm or finish them off. But that heavenly horse ruined everything.

In front of them was the insane heavenly horse who could instantly elevate the entire surface of this region to the clouds.

It was an incomprehensible power.

Especially the power that made the guardian of the gate wither.

It was an incomprehensible power.

It couldn’t be seen or felt.

The heavenly horse seemed to be very pleased, smiling.

There’s no other way to feel. When there are shattered mountains right in front of your eyes.

“Won Daedong.”

“…Chun-hee, the situation has become very unfavorable. Unless the heavenly realm realizes the situation, there is no one to close the gate of heaven.”

“………”

“In other words. If Hyeok-ryongje recovers from this battle and defeats Cheonma, he will ascend to heaven. If Hyeok-ryongje is defeated, the earth will be ruined.”

“Is there any way to take Eun-ho out of here?”

“It’s hard to move fast enough that someone who reaches the boundary of the gangshin domain doesn’t notice. The only possibility is you, Chun-hee.”

That’s right. If he can fly, there is a small possibility that Cheon-hee could escape at his tremendous speed.

However, he will definitely die before flying.

The ending that is felt without having to be anticipated.

Cheonma passed Eunho and won exactly Cheon-hee. Hyeok-ryongje also looked at the opponent with a weird eye.

It seemed natural to be the same person who possessed the same magic. Since recovering, Hyeok-ryongje has never seen anyone other than himself who handles magic, so he could understand how Cheonma could appear as an amazing existence.

“It’s such an ugly face I’ve been seeing.”

[………….]

Hyeok-ryongje, who was quietly speculating whether the opponent was an enemy, did not make his typical animal sounds. Cheonma smirked.

“Oh. Are you trying to guess me? It is said to be the origin of magic. There is no one in this world who possesses more magic than me. I don’t want to be involved in such a confrontation either…”

Cheonma’s eyes were filled with vitality.

“There’s something more important.”

They both take a step back at the same time.

‘Black Dragon Ruling’

‘Cheonma Ruling’

They began to fight each other as if they had made a promise.

Hyeok-ryongje’s power had a plan to pull the ground down to the bottom, and Cheonma tried endlessly to bring the ground up.

-Gr-gr-gr-grinding…

There was a sound of grinding.

Because Cheonma had lifted the clouds with ‘Cheonma Ruling’, the area had accidentally turned into a situation which was ideal for lowering the ground to get out of here, leading Eunho’s team to start supporting Hyeok-ryongje.

“He’s quite strong for a half-god.”

Hyeok-ryongje, who has been reduced to a corpse and demoted to the lower world, felt an emotional cry for the first time as he felt the ground rising against his will.

[Grow-roar..!!]

“Oh, the origin of magic. What are you feeling? Is it feeling the power derived from yourself being consumed by yourself? Are you feeling the hollowness in your different body from thousands of years ago?”

– Kugugugugu… Endless ascending ground. Eunho suffered on the overwhelmingly fast-rising terrain.

– Lack of oxygen.

– “Ugh… My head…”

– “Damn it… It’s because we’re running out of air.”

– As Cheonhee tried to approach, Cheonma said, “I’m sure I told you not to move.”

– It was Ryu Cheonhee, whose vitality had spread throughout her spine, but her gaze showed no signs of wavering.

– “What do you want me to do?”

– Her audacious attitude seemed to intrigue Cheonma even more.

– “heheheh. The more I look at you, the more I like you. Your willpower is so strong that even the commands of the elders don’t work on you. What happened between the first time we met and now? You seem like a different person.”

– Ryu Cheonhee spoke bitterly, “I’m just… avoiding actions that would make me feel guilty again.”

– Never again… So that she wouldn’t abandon Eunho. The guilt was more terrifying than anything else.

– Ryu Cheonhee was more afraid of being alone than losing the only person in this world she could empathize with.

– “Show some respect and let me provide first aid.”

– “……..”

– Cheonhee didn’t like Cheonma speaking so casually as if she could say anything, but she ran toward Eunho for his sake.

– “Haah… Haah…”

– “Eunho, excuse me.”

– “Pfft…”

– “….?!”

– Cheonhee sealed their lips together to purify the air with her magic and shared her breath with him.

– “Ha… Ah…”

– Eunho instinctively craved more of Cheonhee’s breath. To endure on the ever-rising ground, he needed her breath.

– “Ugh… What are we doing in this situation?”

– He could only roll his eyes and blush while tightly holding onto her breath.

– Meanwhile, Heukryongja changed his approach.

– Utilizing all forms of energy – divine energy, spiritual energy, magical energy, and life energy, he started to combine them.

– Cheonma furrowed his brow at this behavior that seemed to deny his own origin.

“Disappointing. To give up on magic. Black Dragon Lord. Do you know the difference between you and me?” The Black Dragon Lord screamed like a fit.

But Cheonma disregarded him and continued speaking. “I won’t be caught by anyone with magic. No, I haven’t been caught since I passed them all in an instant. When I eat you and reach the summit.. I will keep the throne forever.”

Cheonma released the Cheonma Imperial Scroll and approached. “Kneel.” He made the Black Dragon Lord fall with his words and kicked him down with his foot. “That’s aging. That’s getting old. That’s dying. I’ll never be like that.. Black Dragon Lord. Meeting you for four years will be the greatest step I’ve taken. Finally…”

The part of the Black Dragon Lord’s throat was lifted up by Cheonma, who was assumed to be holding it. When he lightly made a pattern with his hand, the Black Dragon Lord turned into a small sphere.

“I won’t fail.” Cheonma swallowed the black sphere.

The ground slowly descended. Glug.

“…………..”

Everyone was silent. Everyone held their breath and watched the movements of the existence that wriggled this space, as if trapping predators and prey in a small box.

The prey looked for the predator, and the predator…

“Kukh… Kuhahahahaha!!!”

The overwhelming magic power could be considered as such.

Even Ryu Cheon-hee was defended by Won-eo Dae-cheong’s territory to protect Eun-ho Gong and Cheon-hee from the danger of magic.

Basically, the ability to cope with magic was possible because Won-eo Dae-cheong was much better at it.

“… Is it over? Eun-ho Gong. Cheon-hee Yang. I’ll buy you time, so run away quickly.”

“………..”

“Cough… I hate it. I’ll never do it.”

“It’s impossible. Fish, none of your tricks work in front of me.”

Cheonhee prevented Won-eodaechung from attempting something.

“Don’t try to act cool alone. It’s not over yet.”

“There’s no other way… this is the only option.”

“Trust me. It’s been only three days since we met, but we’ve experienced life and death together. Trust me.”

Won-eodaechung stopped what he was about to do and looked at Cheonma.

A sinister magic seemed to attack them.

Cheonhee must have a plan, right…?

Trembling, Won-eodaechung thought.
