Chapter 71
Dan Woo-sung kicked the broken sword with his foot, piling it atop the corpse’s remains, then buried it by trampling it with his foot.
Somehow, his manner bore a striking resemblance to the actions of the Heavenly Demon.
Was it because both men kept revenge in mind, or because their mindsets were similar? Perhaps they were people who shared many similarities, except for their differing perspectives on the world.
He sent the tainted sword and the corpse that had refused to be human back to the earth.
He had no desire to study the corpse, nor any intention of utilizing the broken sword. It could have been tainted by the ways of the dark arts or exerted a harmful influence.
Returning it to the earth seemed the cleanest solution. Especially since it wasn’t an ordinary sword, but a cursed blade that resonated with its wielder.
The day he killed the Sword Demon’s subordinate…
Danwooseong kept reliving the battles of his past life in nightmares. Was he having these dreams because regret was overwhelming him? Or had he been influenced to some extent by the evil energy flowing from the sword?
He couldn’t say.
Regardless, Dan Woo-sung spent the entire night repeating the fight, as if reviewing it, while keeping his eyes fixed on the enemy.
He could fight far more efficiently than before.
He deliberately and relentlessly targeted their eyes. He either deliberately drove the stolen swords into the ground while infusing them with his inner energy, or hurled them as far as possible. Once, after completely shattering all twelve of his subordinates, he faced off against a man presumed to be the Sword Demon. The moment Danwooseong seized his chance, he jabbed two fingers into his opponent’s eyes.
