Nano Machine (Retranslated Version) - Chapter 274

Chapter 274: 274

The fire powder had its own purpose, but if the person was inside there, then it wasn’t likely for him to set it to explode .

[What should we do, my Lord?]

[Wait here . ]

[Yes, my Lord . ]

Yeowun then decided he should check it out first, as walking in without checking first could be dangerous .

‘Nano, activate Nightvision mode . ’

[Activating nightvision mode on user’s sight . ]

Nano’s voice rang out and Yeowun’s eye shook before taking in more light exposure . Yeowun now clearly saw what was inside the cave . But the distance was still too far to look at it clearly .

[Wait here . ]

Yeowun took ten steps in and saw a person far away .

‘Nano, can you zoom in?’

[Zooming in on current sight . ]

The faint person figure was then zoomed in . When it was zoomed in enough, Yeowun became shocked .

‘Huh?’

The cave was a dead end . There was a man sitting there, shaking his head frantically . This was the reason for the light shaking within .

‘That man . . ’

It was one of the men from the group that was found dead while ago . The man had been tied with rope, but he could move his head, which he was shaking frantically with a pale face .

‘A fire?’

There was a small torch by man’s mouth that was created with small wood . The fire was coming near the man’s mouth, and the man was trying hard to put out the fire but it was almost at his mouth . Even through its extreme heat, the man didn’t let go of the torch and tried to put it out .

‘W-wait…!’

Yeowun then looked near the man and saw a huge amount of fire powder by the man . Yeowun deactivated nightvision mode and shouted frantically .

“WE HAVE TO GET OUT OF…!!!”

It was then . An explosion rang from within the cave, and the fire exploded out like lightning . The explosion was so loud that everyone’s ears went deaf with a ringing sound . But Yang Danwa, Mun Ku, and Hu Bong realized something went wrong and turned to run out of the cave . However, the explosion was too fast . The fire quickly reached the entrance and the fire came over them .

At that moment, when even the cave was coming down, Yeowun was only thinking about saving Mun Ku and the others, rather than his own escape . Yeowun then unleashed all of his energy onto the three people . Their bodies were then pushed out like a cannonball through the energy .

“Aaaaaah!”

“Kyaaaaaa!”

The three people got out of the cave just when the fire reached the entrance and they flew to the other side of the cliff .

‘N-no!! Prince!’

Mun Ku then quickly turned as she was flying away .

“Aaaaaaaaaargh!!!”

And she saw Yeowun, engulfed in fire, thrown out from the cave before dropping down into the cliff .

“NOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!”

Mun Ku screamed in despair, but Yeowun’s body was disappearing into the depth of the cliff . With Yeowun’s energy dissipating, Mun Ku and others got down safely on the other side of the cliff and quickly turned to run to the cliff .

“M-master!!!!”

“A-aaaaaaaah!!!”

Yeowun’s fire disappeared into the dark depth and Mun Ku and Hu Bong screamed madly and tried to jump in . Yang Danwa held them to stop them . Jumping off here was an act of suicide .

“Let me go! Let me go!!”

Mun Ku screamed with tears running through her reddened eyes and Yang Danwa slapped her .

“Wake up! Are you going to kill yourself and have the Lord’s sacrifice to go in vain?”

Mun Ku was so heartbroken to hear this . It wasn’t even a day since they found out about each other’s feelings . This tragedy brought despair and grief to her .

“Ah…ah-ah!”

She then slumped down on the ground and began to wail . Hu Bong, who had been screaming toward the cliff, couldn’t hold back his emotions either . No one imagined such thing would happen in that short amount of time .

‘Dammit…!’

Yang Danwa clenched his fist and blood dripped from it . He stopped these two people from jumping off, but Yang Danwa felt the same way . He was actually saved by the Lord whom he had to prtect, so he couldn’t find the words to describe his despair . Their sadness had barely passed…

Someone appeared through the bushes and Yang Danwa turned . Someone was walking out as if it was entertaining . It was the old man from the inn .

“Y-YOU!”

“Oh- haha . This is an unexpected profit . Someone else bit the bait . ”

The fire powder inside the cave was the old man’s work . He seemed really glad about what just happened .

“It would have been harder if that one was alive, but he dropped down on his own . What a fortunate turn of events . ”

“YOU!!!”

Mun Ku then glared with reddened eyes . She became furious at the old man who seemed to be happy about Yeowun’s death .

“Oh? You were crying like a girl just now, but you are a man? But!”

The old man unleashed powerful energy .

“You wouldn’t last long . ”

Yang Danwa’s eyes turned grim . The old man was much more powerful than himself last night .

“I am bit busy, so I’ll make this quick . ”

The old man then smirked and charged .

After about an hour, at a forest about 5 miles away from Sword Creek, someone was barely walking through the forest .

“Whew… Whew…”

He seemed exhausted and was breathing heavily . It was the old man who attacked Yeowun’s remaining group . It seemed he had taken internal damage as his face was pale .

‘I thought I was lucky… but I guess not . ’

The old man then stopped and rested his back on a large tree . He opened his senses to check if there were any chasers .

‘If it wasn’t for that girlish boy coming at me so fiercely… I would have taken care of them fast and also taken care of him too . ’

He couldn’t forget Mun Ku’s eyes . Mun Ku charged at the old man like a woman who had lost her husband . The old man was much stronger, but he was overwhelmed by such a fierce attack . That’s when the man that the old man baited came out and joined the fight, which resulted in the old man taking internal damage and retreating .

‘Haha… doesn’t matter . I know which cave he came out from now . ’

That was the original purpose anyway . He had gone through many caves, but he never found any entrances . That’s why the old man exploded one of them to check, and it sure worked .

‘Just a bit more to find his trace… I just need to tend to my wound and… hmm?’

The old man felt many people appearing nearby . But he didn’t seem surprised . One of the men then appeared in front of the old man and knelt down .

“Lee Chung, at service of the Blade Sword Master!”

The old man grinned .
