The King of the Battlefield Chapter 190: The Banquet (3)

Of course, he had no intention of leaving Seo Eunsae like that.

‘It’s a good body.’

She was a woman that had become known as the Dark Commander.

Her body was now old and weak, but it would be a different story if he made her an undead.

Since his Art of Death skill reached the S Rank, the strength of her prime could be restored intact.

In any case, if he didn’t stretch out his hand, she would soon become a complete idiot and die.

She had not been there in the past when Muyoung had been active. She had already died and her skeleton had become dust.

However, he’d never made an undead from a living subject before. Usually, he would make people that were just on the brink of death into living corpses, but presently, Dark Commander Seo Eunsae was not greatly injured.

But he had a good feeling.

Having tried many kinds of extremes, Muyoung was continuously increasing his limits.

He noticed his changes, and he also knew they were leading him in the right direction.

So, Muyoung was no longer scared of change.

When he had just returned, he was merely an awakened killer.

He turned his attention to the Demon Gods because he grew tired of killing people.

But now his goal was clear. He was clearly aware of what he had to do, and the reasons for which he was alive.

“Seo Eunsae, look at my eyes.”

Muyoung unleashed all his power.

Ruuuumble!

The entire palace began to shake.

The intangible energy that poured out of Muyoung was extremely distinct and overwhelming.

Seo Eunsae, who had fainted, opened her eyes involuntarily.

Then her body trembled.

She was sealing herself and erasing her memory.

She was now in a state closely resembling an idiot. A clean soul was like a kind of mirror, reflecting everything that was seen.

“Aaaah…”

All she could do was open her mouth and make a small scream.

Muyoung forcibly seized her soul.

Then, he started to create.

<’Soul Exploitation’ skill rank has greatly increased: F → A>

Soul Exploitation was the inherent skill of the Death Lord Class.

Even when his general skills ranked up, this didn’t increase.

Unfortunately, Soul Exploitation was not something that could be used often.

So, the rank hadn’t gone up.

However, when the understanding of a soul that had already reached this stage and personally recreating a soul were combined, it had caused a steep rise in the rank.

However, Muyoung had no intention of exploiting and absorbing Seo Eunsae’s soul.

The border of life and death. He merely wanted something that stood on that border.

‘The Art of Death.’

After confirming that her soul had been completely subjugated by him, Muyoung used Art of Death.

Soon, black air began to spread out from Muyoung’s entire body and quietly devour Seo Eunsae.

‘I don’t need it.’

Muyoung immediately refused.

The Masters of Darkness would try to turn Muyoung into their successor however they could.

However, Muyoung now understood them to some degree.

They ended up being defeated.

They had become the Masters of Darkness as they were defeated!

So, they wanted an absolute being that could never be defeated.

Muyoung was a person that was optimized for those desires.

However…

‘I have not been defeated.’

It was the same.

Muyoung had no thoughts of being defeated, not even once.

He would only win.

To do so, he needed to completely walk his path alone.

They had only laid Muyoung’s foundation. He could not grow up in their arms forever like a baby bird.

Muyoung personally sculpted and created her skills.

If her level of death was insufficient, his power was enough to fill the gap.

Muyoung rammed the entirety of the Power of Death that he had into Seo Eunsae’s body.

There… he added a sacred flame.

Diablo’s power was mixed in, hiis flame symbolic of both life and death.

Rooooaaar!

Seo Eunsae’s body was burnt.

She was swallowed by the fire.

However, this flame was like a caterpillar’s cocoon.

Shedding her skin!

She was shedding her cocoon in order to make beautiful wings.

The black flame burnt and reconstructed Seo Eunsae’s body.

No less than five times.

She became younger each time she shed her skin.

Little by little, she recovered the image of when she was in her prime.

And finally, when she finished shedding her skin for the fifth time…

<’One Who Stands at the Boundary’ has been completed.>

Name: Seo Eunsae

Level: 550

Type: Chaotic

Strength (520) Agility (605) Stamina ( 510)

Intelligence (440) Wisdom (440) Magical Resistance (500)

Inherent Tier 15 Shadow Ability (510)

Current successor to ‘Zero Innocence’.

Potential to use a top mysterious technique to run on wind.

Excellent camouflage

Unparalleled Knife of the 12 Stars

Destroyer of all battle formations

Supreme Command Skills

Chance of growing by soul assimilation.

She was strong.

Firstly, her agility was over 600.

After passing 500, a difference of 1 point was significant, so if hers was 600, nothing more needed to be said.

In terms of agility, at least, she was superior to Muyoung.

She was able to achieve this absurd ability because she had recovered the strength of her prime and had been further strengthened after shedding her skin five times.

Seo Eunsae’s face was certainly tinged with color.

She looked somewhat cold, but she was a typical Asian beauty with black bobbed hair.

Also, finding out she was an ‘undead’ certainly would not be easy.

Her heart was still beating.

“Are you my master?”

Muyoung nodded his head.

Then, Seo Eunsae grinned.

It was a freshness that could not be found in any other undead.

Seo Eunsae knelt.

She put her head to the floor in the typical posture of obedience.

Then, she looked up and spoke while looking around.

“My memory is not intact. I only remember that I was Dark Commander Seo Eunsae and that this place was my house. I pray that my skills and remaining memories will be helpful to you, Master.”

She was definitely different.

It didn’t seem as if she had a simple mentality like an undead.

At the very least, she was the closest to a human being among all the normal undead Muyoung had made.

The corners of Muyoung’s mouth tilted upwards.

The first challenge. The first step was a success.

Without anyone’s help or advice, he had made his own way.

Now, Muyoung was completely able to step forward.

* * *

Bango was in shock.

Two people came out of the Palace.

Banya’s flawless exit was fortunate but not surprising.

The problem was the person that followed behind him.

“God-Godmother…?”

Godmother, who had lost her sanity, was back!

Bango’s pupils shook tremendously.

In addition, Godmother looked like she had in Bango’s first memories.

Her old and sick appearance had disappeared, leaving only a beautiful and young one.

How was this possible?

Seo Eunsae disappeared for a moment.

Then, she appeared in front of Bango.

Bango stumbled because he was unable to read her expression, but Seo Eunsae didn’t care.

“I heard it from Banya. The clan is a major wreck.”

She sent him an incredibly cold look.

Clan leader Bango’s entire body trembled.

Soon, she spoke again.

“Now that I have returned, I will rebuild from the foundation. I will not permit arguments.”

Dark Commander Seo Eunsae.

She had taken an active part in the war with the Demon Kings in the past, and had erected the Command Clan on her own.

She also had a presence that caused her to naturally be called a female general.

A woman like that had returned.

To the Command Clan as an enormous typhoon!

* * *

The original clan leader, Seo Eunsae, was back!

The rumor quickly spread.

Something no one could have foreseen.

Additionally, she had recovered the strength of her prime.

Her gaze had become colder, and she had become more beautiful than in pictures or photographs.

As soon as she returned, Muyoung, as Banya, was declared as the true successor of the Command Clan.

Even the great Banjoong was like a frightened mouse in front of Seo Eunsae.

The name Seo Eunsae was that strong.

Although she had been locked away, the fact that she had taken possession of that incredibly huge royal palace by herself was a testament to her power.

Now that Seo Eunsae was there, no one could touch Muyoung.

In the Command Clan, at least.

However, the clan finances had already been declining.

“I can’t believe the clan is this weak. What have you been doing all this time?”

Seo Eunsae’s expression wasn’t good.

At least the memories that ruled the clan were still there.

In the early days when she built the clan, its power came close to the Reign Clan’s.

Now, though, it had crumbled away beyond comparison.

Seo Eunsae was extremely displeased with this condition.

At this time, Muyoung was willing to throw away money readily.

Numerous B-grade talismans.

They were part of the more than ten thousand pages in the slush fund Muyoung had robbed as the ‘great thief’.

However, ten thousand B-grade talismans were enough to stop the immediate decline of the clan.

“Even combining all of you would not be equal to one of the successor!”

The rumor that Seo Eunsae cherished Banya spread even more.

There were many that wondered where the talismans came from, but Muyoung remained consistently silent.

They were illegal funds anyway.

Who would proudly reveal the source of that?

‘There is a lot left.’

Even though he used ten thousand talismans, the remainder was several times more.

The rest of the money would be used when he returned to his real territory.

Still, this led to Muyoung becoming the true successor.

* * *

The return of Seo Eunsae, the original clan leader, and Banya the heir was not only the Command Clan’s problem.

The heads of the other large clans, who knew Seo Eunsae’s true character, were also affected.

They started to pay attention to the Command Clan.

This was because they knew how great the things Seo Eunsae achieved by herself were.

The banquet, which used to be a place to moderately meet face to face, smile, and make conversation turned into a huge gathering that attracted everyone’s attention.

Seo Eunsae and Banya were at the center of that.

‘With the maximum splendor.’

Muyoung dressed in glamorous clothing and jewelry.

It was his first time doing this, but it didn’t feel difficult to adjust to.

A royal palace that seemed to rise to the sky.

It was an enormous place with many landscaped gardens that stretched for miles.

While others rode in coaches led by twelve horses, Muyoung rode in a large coach led by seven blazing Bone Dragons.

Kwaaaaaaakk!

Screeeeeecch!

The seven Bone Dragons arrived in the garden, uttering horrible shrieks.

All the surrounding birds fled, and even the insects went silent.

Meanwhile, they caught the attention of everyone who had been in the garden enjoying the banquet.

Their eyes widened in an instant.

It was inconceivable that he would come by dragon.

Their gazes were mixed with astonishment, anxiety, and jealousy.

There were people who, outside of horses, reared powerful monsters and used them as mounts, but no one was able to come in a coach led by Bone Dragons.

Creeaaaaak!

The door opened.

Step!

Muyoung walked out.

It was a flamboyant introduction.
