Breakers Chapter 76:

Chapter 76 - Chapter 12: Legend #2

"So, to recap, the sword duke came to Thunderdoom to meet Shutra, right? His purpose was to teach you a few things . ”

Chris summed it up with a disbelieving expression . It was unlike his usual expression, so he was really shocked .

In-gong replied in a calm voice in order to pacify Chris,

“Yes, I’m alive thanks to him . It was really a crisis . ”

In-gong not only explained what had happened at Thunderdoom Fortress but at Enger Plains as well . Apart from the sword duke, it was also important to talk about the mysteries they had encountered at Thunderdoom Fortress .

Chris thought about In-gong’s explanation as he leaned back in his chair . After a while, he took a deep breath and leaned forward .

“My mind is all muddled . The events that occurred in Thunderdoom Fortress is definitely serious . . . The mention of the sword duke keeps bothering me . ”

Apart from the demon king, he was the strongest in the Demon King’s Palace .

He was an elder of the sura and the strongest swordsman of the previous era . Living in seclusion, the sword duke was rarely seen at the Demon King’s Palace .

However, no one in the Demon King’s Palace could ignore the sword duke as the Demon World respected the strong . The sword duke had the absolute power required to reverse a situation and the number of people who still followed him couldn’t be counted .

Yet he had moved and it had only been to meet In-gong .

What was the sword duke thinking? Why had he intervened?

If the sword duke actively supported In-gong for the throne, In-gong would become equal to the other three factions .

‘I’ve never seen this before . ’

Chris swallowed his words because he couldn’t say them .

Unlike Chris, who was making prideful calculations in his head, Caitlin was as pure as ever . She focused on In-gong’s body instead of the political ramifications of the sword duke’s actions .

“You don’t have any injuries? It was a really dangerous opponent . ”

Caitlin scanned In-gong and Felicia’s body . In-gong smiled brightly at the sweet concern in her eyes .

“I’m fine . The sword duke showed up before anything happened . ”

“That’s right, that’s right . Really exquisite timing . Doesn’t it seem like he was waiting outside and deliberately appeared at that time?”

Felicia chimed in brighter than usual in order to reassure Caitlin .

It was enough to replace the worry in Caitlin’s eyes with curiosity . She asked In-gong and Felicia,

“Was the zombie dragon big?”

"Huge . "

"And Shutra caught the big fish with one strike . ”

Felicia laughed as she punched the air . Caitlin’s eyes started sparkling .

“Amazing . ”

She started visualizing In-gong killing a zombie dragon in her head . Chris hugged Caitlin’s shoulders and laughed .

“You are now a dragon slayer . Isn’t that amazing?”

"It is thanks to Ascalon . The dungeon guardians were also on our side . ”

In-gong replied modestly but his face looked pleased . In-gong was also a person, so he didn’t hate praise like this . Moreover, even In-gong thought it was great .

Then Chris’ expression suddenly changed . He leaned back in his chair again and stared into In-gong’s eyes .

“What is it?”

He asked Chris, who simply shrugged .

"No, doesn’t it feel like you are a man driving a storm? There is a blast everywhere you go . ”

At the Jishuka Mountains, the Demon King’s Palace, Enger Plains, the Demon King’s Palace again and the Thunderdoom Fortress . . .

As Carack had pointed out earlier, In-gong got caught up in a big event wherever he went .

Chris said playfully,

"This is suddenly making me nervous . What if something occurs here as well?”

“Oppa . ”

Caitlin rebuked Chris . Chris shook and knocked against Caitlin’s shoulder .

“It’s a joke, a joke . ”

'I really hope it ends as a joke . If Carack was here, he would have said that he feels something ominous . ’

Green Wind’s voice buzzed in his ears . In-gong turned his head and saw Green Wind in her translucent state . She had been following Carack’s group, but it seemed like she had just returned .

"What is Carack’s group doing?”

In-gong asked and a subtle expression crossed Green Wind’s face .

‘They are chatting and smiling with each other, but the atmosphere is strangely **** . So, I decided to come here . ’

Indeed, Carack .

Maybe he really was a protagonist . He was insensitive to things like this .

Then Caitlin asked In-gong with an anxious voice,

“Shutra?”

“Oh, Green Wind wanted to talk to me . ”

In-gong pointed to the place where Green Wind was standing .

“Are you referring to the guardian of Enger Plains? Can we see her?”

“I want to see her as well . ”

"Me too . ”

After Caitlin, Chris and Felicia also expressed their desire to see Green Wind . . .

“Greenie?”

‘I told you not to call me Greenie . I dislike Master who keeps ignoring my words . ’

Green Wind’s face was sulky as she spoke to In-gong . In-gong called out Green Wind’s name,

“Green Wind . ”

‘Bah!’

Green Wind snorted but obeyed . She appeared in front of him .

“Wah . ”

"The guardian of Enger Plains . ”

Like In-gong, Chis and Caitlin had carried out the casios subjugation mission previously . Caitlin was excited about the fact that she was looking at the guardian, but Chris had more thoughts .

‘He gained the support of the centaurs . ’

Green Wind was the guardian of the centaurs . It was clear that the centaurs, including Ferocious Eyes, would support In-gong due to Green Wind .

He wasn’t the Scrap Prince anymore .

In addition to his skills, the environment was changing .

The demon king’s interest, the sponsorship of the sword duke and the patronage of the guardian… Although it was still weak, he had the support of some interesting forces .

Chris added the power of the lycanthropes as well .

‘And . . . ’

Chris’ gaze headed toward Felicia . Felicia’s red eyes stared at Chris like she had noticed his gaze .

They had a short exchange, then the two of them looked back at Green Wind after hearing Caitlin’s voice .

It was because Green Wind had disappeared .

“She is shy . ”

‘It’s not like that . ’

Green Wind retorted as always before In-gong looked at Chris . Chris shrugged and replied,

“Anyway . . . the mysterious forces . . . It isn’t unusual if they influenced the Red Lightning tribe’s rebellion like Shutra said . It is likely to continue in the future . ”

More than anything, he was concerned about the man who self-destructed in front of the sword duke .

That type of strong person who had chosen to self-destruct without any hesitation . . . Did that mean he was from a thorough organization or that a strong person like that was common?

"Well, it seems inevitable . This is the Demon World . ”

His words were similar to the sword duke’s .

There was always someone in the Demon World who tried to challenge the Demon King’s Palace . As the children of the demon king, it was inevitable they would to encounter such forces .

Thus, Chris didn’t drag out the story of the unknown force for long . Rather, he was interested in something else .

"The demon king and the sword duke . . . Knowing Silvan, he will make a big fuss . ”

A pleased expression formed on his face just by imagining it . He didn’t attach a suffix like when he called Felicia ‘noonim’ and after recalling Caitlin’s words, In-gong could guess at the relationship between Silvan and Chris .

Felicia sighed and said,

"Silvan uses a sword . He has always wanted to learn from the sword duke . ”

However, that hadn’t happened .

Now, the sword duke had approached In-gong and had been the one who suggested teaching him .

"Hmm, then the sword duke is Shutra’s guardian?”

Chris scratched his chin at Felicia’s question and she replied,

"I guess so . ”

"Why, does Noonim want to be it?”

Felicia flinched and covered her face with her fan . Caitlin focused on In-gong instead of the two people .

"Shutra, what did you learn from the sword duke?”

"I’m curious as well . ”

Chris quickly turned toward In-gong . Felicia raised her chin and teased,

"Won’t everybody be surprised to know?”

Chris’ gaze went back to Felicia and she once again hid her face with her fan .

In-gong was still staring at Caitlin as he expressed the idea he had at Thunderdoom Fortress .

"Caitlin noona, do you want to spar with me?”

Caitlin’s eyes shone . The sparkle in her eyes was different from the usual admiration . She was obviously excited .

"Okay . "

Caitlin rose instantly from her seat .

 

&

 

“I’ll concede five hits . ”

In-gong and Caitlin stood facing each other in the open space . In-gong wanted to conceal the spar, so there was no one around except for Chris and Felicia .

Conceding five hits . . .

He had seen it in many novels and this saying was personally familiar to In-gong . Caitlin always said this in their previous spars .

Caitlin would stand in one place and receive In-gong’s attacks .

'Only five… Shows that I’ve developed a lot . ’

Originally, she had conceded around 20~30 hits . However, In-gong wasn’t going to stop at that much .

In-gong had obviously become stronger . The comparison with Villager A was now meaningless .

How strong had he become? In-gong wondered about his level compared to the other children of the demon king, including Caitlin .

'I will do my best . ’

He didn’t intend to make a fool of himself; Caitlin was going to receive In-gong’s power .

'First, I will start with Divine Sura Authority . ’

His breathing changed . From the very beginning of the spar, his white aura rose like flames .

Caitlin and Chris flinched back as the white aura burst out like a fierce fire . However, that wasn’t the end . In-gong still had methods to enhance his strength .

Protection of the Wind Lv2 . It was a spell Green Wind had taught him .

Activation Lv1 . That was the basic stage of the spirit magic Daphne had used .

Green Wind wound around In-gong’s legs . The wind spirit added to In-gong’s strength .

There was still one more .

‘Dragon Blood!’

The power of a dragon humanoid obtained from Watcher Ainkel .

In-gong’s aura surged . Despite not being equipped with Earth Quaker and White Eagle, In-gong’s combat power was greatly enhanced . His aura itself seemed to growl .

In-gong breathed out as he looked at Caitlin and took the posture of Beast Authority . Caitlin also hurriedly took the posture of Beast Authority but her expression was a mess . It was like when she was asked to smash a cliff with her fists .

Why?

Then Felicia hit In-gong’s back .

“Shutra you fool! Are you trying to hurt Caitlin? Do you really want to make her concede in five hits?”

"Caitlin, you don't need to concede anything . Use all your strength . ”

Chris spoke in a heavy tone . Both eyes were filled with doubt instead of playfulness .

“But . . . ”

Caitlin stared at In-gong and mumbled . In-gong understood how Caitlin felt . Caitlin always strived to keep her word .

In-gong maintained the battle posture and declared in a serious tone .

"I’m also asking you . I want to know my exact level . ”

It was sincere . He was more interested in confirming his current level than being praised for continued growth .

The man with the spear .

He would have died if the sword duke hadn’t come .

In-gong, Felicia, Carack, Karma, Daphna and Delia would have all died . Maybe even Green Wind would’ve come to an end .

He had to become stronger . Enough so that he could beat Zephyr!

Caitlin nodded . Instead of saying any more, she revealed her aura .

A dark blue aura .

In-gong’s breath poured out . Caitlin formed a fist . Then she sprang forward .

Caitlin was fast . She was like lightning as she moved . But he didn’t miss it . Now In-gong could follow Caitlin’s movements . He reached out as she charged forward .

Great Mountain .

A technique taught by the sword duke .

It was a huge barrier that could crush Caitlin . Instead of resisting, she adapted to Great Mountain . She flew back and twisted her body in the air . Then she sprang forward the moment she landed .

But the situation was different from before . In-gong was also racing towards her .

Caitlin and In-gong’s eyes met . Caitlin’s fist headed towards In-gong’s head . In-gong moved his upper body and avoided the attack . Like flowing water, In-gong counter-attacked .

Lightning!

As the name suggested, a white flash appeared above Caitlin’s head . Instead of confronting it, Caitlin threw her body back and dodged . She rolled on the floor and In-gong’s back was exposed to her . Green Wind screamed in his ears .

‘Master!’

A dark blue aura was around Caitlin’s fist . However, In-gong didn’t allow her to strike . This is because the wind had informed him .

The explosive power of Divine Beast Authority and the swiftness of Wind Style .

As Caitlin aimed for him, In-gong twisted his body . In the aftermath, his feet moved as he faced Caitlin again and his fist stretched out .

A fierce battle occurred . In-gong had more strength but Caitlin was faster . The two exchanged over 10 attacks as they used all their power as promised .

It was a situation where they would defend as soon as there was an attack .

In-gong’s technique transformed in this situation . Aura exploded in the air as both In-gong and Caitlin had the same idea . This wasn’t a minor blow but a powerful one that both sides prepared . Despite the fierce competition, they couldn’t help laughing as they struck each other .

Explosive Power!

Blue and white mixed together . There was a huge roar as their eyes were momentarily blinded by light .

The earth churned wildly . In-gong smiled as he withdrew his right arm and Caitlin was the same . Just like a wild prey before assaulting the prey, she smiled brightly .

The second stage began .

The two people once again produced a strong aura . Then a giant aura storm rose between the two of them .

It was Chris Moonlight .

He intervened between In-gong and Caitlin with a huge aura that attracted their eyes .

“Divine Beast Authority . But it isn’t Divine Beast Authority . Rather, it has developed into something else . What the **** happened?"

The battle was brief . There weren’t many exchanges .

However, Chris was the successor of Divine Beast Authority so he could see it . The source of the white aura was something other than Divine Beast Authority .

In-gong turned off his aura and took a normal posture . Despite witnessing Chris’ mighty power, he remained calm .

Chris wasn’t an unreachable cliff . He was a mountain that could definitely be climbed .

“Divine Sura Authority . ”

In-gong didn’t conceal it . He had a solid alliance with Chris and Caitlin . In order to develop Divine Sura Authority that came from Divine Beast Authority, their help was required in order to master Divine Beast Authority .

“Divine . . . Sura Authority?”

In-gong nodded at Chris’ question . A vibrant aura flowed in his body as he replied .

"It is a new aura management technique that combines Sura Heart Law and Divine Beast Authority . ”

Caitlin’s eyes widened while Chris’ shoulders slumped . They stared at In-gong with bemused expressions .

“Ama-zing!”

"Why is Noonim saying this? Shutra is the great one, not Noonim . ”
