Chapter 395: 395
"We can do this . We won't know it until we actually start fighting," said Jeong Hui-Won exactly three hours ago . "Doesn't matter whether they are Demon Kings or not, tell them to come . We aren't that weak anymore, right?"
The ones listening to her were the Reincarnators; the ones that chose 'Good' during the past regional conflicts, as well as the lucky few that survived the battlefields invalidated by .
These were people who had lost their worldview .

[117th regional conflict is commencing!]

[Your affiliated camp is 'Good' . ]

"If I knew this might happen, I wouldn't have come . . . . "
" . . . . Can't we return to our old world?"
A few people began muttering in fear and the turmoil spread among the crowd in an instant .
"H-how can we fight against something like that?!"
"Ah, aaaah . . . . "
A ship of 'Evil' was surging in from the distance . It was massive . Without a doubt, it was a Fable weapon equipped with incredible functionalities .
Ghi-eeeeehhk!
The waves supporting the massive ship and flooding in were actually a great army consisting of 7th-grade demonkind, Dark Warriors . There were so many that it was near-impossible to count them all . At a casual glance, there had to be several tens of thousands .
It was a spectacle that couldn't be described as a mere regional conflict .
"Uwaaaaah-!!"
Jeong Hui-Won saw the eyes of the Reincarnators filled with fear and thought to herself .
She couldn't demand everyone to be brave here .
It was only obvious that they would be scared .
They lived their whole lives inside the cages of their worldview, only to be used by the invaders from the outside . Demanding such people to be brave was the very act of violence itself .
Jeong Hui-Won wanted to tell them; tell them that they didn't have to fight, that she'd do something to resolve this by herself, somehow .
"Everyone, hide behind me . "
There was one man who spoke up for her heart, though .
"I shall block them . "
He was one of her oldest comrades, as well as a man who bravely met the adversity ran into from the forefront .
"Can you stop that all by yourself?"
"Of course, that'll be impossible . "
Seeing Yi Hyeon-Seong's generous smile, her frustrated heart seemed to loosen up just a little . He used to have a seizure just from a simple touch of a fingertip, but at this moment, she sensed that they had grown really close .
"Let's decide on our roles . I'll be in charge of taking on all the attacks . Hui-Won-ssi, you should . . . . "
"It's to attack, yes? Just like back in Kaixenix . "
Back in the Kaixenix Archipelago, there were times when they fought alongside each other like this . They shared memories of fighting against the marauding invaders .
The toughest shield and the sharpest sword of . Although simple, this tactic best optimised their individual strengths and weaknesses .
"Shall we get going?"

[Fable, 'Sword and Shield', has begun its storytelling . ]


The first one to dash forward was Yi Hyeon-Seong .
"Haaaaaaahph!!"
As befitting of a man believing in the superstition of 'the louder the roar, the stronger one gets', he yelled out loudly enough to shake the world and clashed against the dark waves .

[Incarnation Yi Hyeon-Seong is activating Stigma 'Steel Transformation Lv . 10'!]

The steel carapace that had reached their maturity now covered his entire body . The Dark Warriors colliding with the steel outer layer gleaming in the bright white glare fell down like bowling pins and got crushed to death .

[Incarnation Yi Hyeon-Seong is activating Stigma 'Great Mountain Smash Lv . 10'!]

His fist of steel rising up into the air powerfully slammed down on the ground – the waves created by Dark Warriors wobbled about precariously, causing the ship's movement to become dull, as well .
Not missing that opportunity, Yi Hyeon-Seong activated his final Stigma .

[Incarnation Yi Hyeon-Seong is activating Stigma 'Great Mountain Push Lv . 10'!]

It was a Stigma that could only pry open the stuck door of a subway in the beginning . But now, that very Stigma was allowing him to push back against a vessel the size of a battleship .
Tsu-chuchuchuchut!
Both of his hands currently covered in [Steel Transformation] were dyeing in a pitch-black colour, and a portion of the carapace covering his body was stripped away . However, Yi Hyeon-Seong spat out another loud yell and endured the pain .
"Haaaaaaahph!!"
He didn't back off even when subjected to the deluge of sparks .
His back leg dug deep into the ground below, and from afar, he resembled a small nail stuck to the ground . But that small nail was successfully stopping the forward movement of that battleship .
"It, it stopped!"
"Yi Hyeon-Seong-nim has stopped the warship!"
The Reincarnators cheered on at this unbelievable miracle .
Unfortunately, the real battle would only begin from now on . The shield had done its job, so it's now time for the sword to do hers .
Jeong Hui-Won soared high into the air after stepping on Yi Hyeon-Seong's shoulders and landed on the ship's deck, before swinging the [Sword of Judgement] around .
[Kuwaaahk!]
She unleashed the combination of [Demon Slaying] and [Hellfire] . She didn't hold back at all, and a Historical Figure-grade Constellation caught off guard was killed off instantly, its Incarnation Body blowing up completely .
Jeong Hui-Won scattering the bluish ghostly flames and emitting pure-white light looked utterly noble, virtuous .

[A portion of Constellations like the 'Sword and Shield' story . ]

Kka-gagagak!!
Unfortunately, it didn't take long for her sword to be stopped .
The culprit was a hand seemingly draped in a dreary black hue . A being cackling ominously had grabbed onto her sword, before throwing her away in the air .
She stepped on the air and spun around to land back on the deck safely .
Before her stood Constellations that already had created a battle formation .
Ku-gugugugu!
No, they weren't Constellations .
[Looking at the accursed Stigma, you must be the Incarnation of that 'Archangel' . ]
[You must've known that this was a trap, yet… . How foolish . To think that you'd willingly step forward towards your own demise . ]
They were completely enveloped in the pitch-black demonic aura; the beings that occupied the darkness within the skies of the .
Jeong Hui-Won studied the five Demon Kings standing before her .

- This is a list of beings that you should be able to fight, as well as those you should never, Hui-Won-ssi . Please, you must memorise their appearances no matter what .



She desperately recalled the contents of Kim Dok-Ja's explanation .
The first Demon King her eyes shifted over to was the creature holding a flaming spear and a head of a person .

- This guy is someone you can fight . If it's the current you, Hui-Won-ssi, activating [Hour of Judgement] should suffice .

The master of the 58th Demon World, 'President of Flames', Amy . (TL: Pronounced as "Ah-me")

- As for this guy . . . . it'll be fine . However, if he suddenly raises up his horn and pounces on you, things will get dangerous, so attack him first without hesitation .

The master of the 48th Demon World, 'Golden-horned Ox', Haagenti .

- It'll get dangerous from this guy onwards . When you're at your peak condition, and when you can fight one on one, only then try to fight it .

The master of the 36th Demon World, 'Silver-clawed Owl', Stolas .

Judging from the leaking Status, she could feel it – up until this guy, she could somehow fight them .
The problem was with the other two staring at her from behind the front three . First of all, the handsome Demon King looking at her, wearing red armour and a limp in one leg .

- Honestly speaking, your chances of winning are slim when we enter the top 20s . If Uriel was to perform 'Advent of Half-God', then things might be different, but… .

The master of the 16th Demon World, 'Demon King of Seduction and Infertility', Zepar .

- And from here onwards, you must unconditionally avoid these guys .

She didn't need a reminder to understand it – the very last being at the back of the formation of the five Demon Kings, silently observing the unfolding situation . That was a being that the current her could never win against .
The master of the 8th Demon World, 'Merciless Hunter Against the Will of Heavens', Barbatos .
The Demon King with a cowboy-style hat and carrying a rifle was smiling at her through its cascading blonde hair .
[The tastiest despair is the 'impossible hope', indeed . ]
Jeong Hui-Won burned her fighting spirit and tightened her grip on the sword .
She had already fought against Demon Kings . Back then, she was not in a condition to exhibit all of her abilities, but . . . What would it be like now?

[Exclusive skill, 'Hour of Judgement', is getting ready to activate!]

Her Attribute was 'Judge of Evil' .
It was the power of the Archangel that led the Valkyries in the past 'Great War of Saints and Demons' .

No matter how powerful her opponents were, she'd still not lose as long as they were 'Evil' .
Unfortunately… .

[Majority of the Absolute Good-type Constellations are opposing the activation of the skill . ]

[Skill activation has been cancelled . ]



Barbatos began laughing as if it already knew what was happening to her .
[How naïve, oh, Incarnation of Uriel . Do you still not understand what your current situation is?]
Kim Dok-Ja said that this 'regional conflict' was a trap .
He said that, even if they knew, they still had to participate in it .
[Angels enjoy the concept of the 'sacrificial lamb' . And it seems that you'll be it this time . ]
The goal of was to win the 'Great War of Saints and Demons' .
And to achieve that goal, must not exist . Whether Jeong Hui-Won was 'Good' or 'Evil', she was simply someone to dispose of from their perspective .
She already knew all of that . That didn't mean it felt real to her even now, though .
'… . I don't know about other angels, but even Uriel betrayed me?'
[I shall send you away peacefully . ]
She heard Barbatos's rifle being cocked . Just as she sensed the back of her neck suddenly grow cold, Jeong Hui-Won threw herself outside the ship .
Ku-waaaaaah!!
The bullet fired in the air tore through the fabric of time and space to puncture a black hole in the sky .
Her hand gripping the sword trembled slightly . She was about to throw herself into a fight against such a monster just now .

- Regardless of what, you must never try to fight a Demon King ranked tenth or higher one-on-one . You must run away without hesitation . And wait for the rest of your companions to arrive . You must remember this .

In any other normal circumstances, she'd have gone against his words . However, it was a different story right now .
"Hyeon-Seong-ssi!"
Yi Hyeon-Seong, busy smacking away the Dark Warriors to death at the front of the pack, looked up at her falling body . That quick exchange of their gazes was enough for him to figure out the current situation of the battle .
The ridiculing voices of the Demon Kings resounded out .
[Hahahaha! You made a wise decision . ]
[Indeed, this battlefield is vast . However, how long will you be able to run away?]
A violent tempest of demonic aura raged on in the sky .
The sword and the shield ran .
It was impossible to fight against the enemies they couldn't even stand against . And they also couldn't afford to die here .
"Dok-Ja-ssi and Yu Jung-Hyeok-ssi will arrive soon . Let's hold out until then . "
Jeong Hui-Won nodded her head . No matter how powerful their enemies were, as long as the company had gathered in one place, they should be able to overcome them . They had broken past battles even worse than this one before . would not crumble in this place .
The two of them took care of the injured Reincarnators and continued to crush the advancing 'Dark Warriors' while withdrawing their battle lines .

[Influence of your sponsor is weakening . ]

To make matters worse, even Uriel's blessing had weakened . Her mind cooked up only the worst-case scenarios, but Jeong Hui-Won shook her head to get rid of them . Most likely, Uriel must've been fighting in a different regional conflict; there was simply no way that her sponsor would betray her .
A frenzied true voice of a Demon King swept across the battlefield next .
[Get out of the way, trash!]
Reincarnators that lost their chance to run away were slaughtered in droves everywhere .
The brave ones trying to fight back were the first to lose their heads, while those backing away in terror had their hearts pierced through .
However, there were still some who could endure against the power of a Demon King to put up a fight .
[Hoh-oh, a Swordmaster, is it? You're a pretty good fighter . ]
Someone was defending against Haagenti's golden horn .
The Ether Blade coated this man's sword . The old man holding this weapon was someone Jeong Hui-Won knew very well .


" . . . . Kyle?"
Kyle Berthe .
He was the top-ranked guardian knight that accompanied her during 'Kaixenix Archipelago' .
⸢Captain, it's been my honour to serve you . ⸥
⸢Actually, I'm too old to step into the outside world, but . . . ⸥
⸢I sincerely wish that my measly strength can become at least some kind of aid to you in that place . ⸥
Kyle fought well . He managed to deflect Haagenti's horn several times, and he even inflicted a small nick on the arm of the bovine Demon King .
But, that was as far as he could go .
The Swordmaster's blade broke, and he went down on his knees . From the beginning, his opponent was not someone an aged Swordmaster could fight against .
His throat was captured and he was lifted up like a toy .

[Character, 'Erich Striker', is getting agitated . ]

Erich's emotions rose up within Jeong Hui-Won .
At this rate, Kyle would die . Her thoughts moved lethargically; the names of members brushed past her mind .
The first one she thought of was Yu Jung-Hyeok .

⸢"Reincarnators will revive even if they die . "⸥

He'd not have tried to save Kyle . The 'Isle of Reincarnators' didn't permit death, after all . One might lose their memories and become a different existence, but nevertheless, the soul would carry on . So, he'd let Kyle die for the sake of the bigger picture .
The next one to pop up in her head was Kim Dok-Ja .

⸢We should save him . But, if you do that, you'll die instead, Hui-Won-ssi . ⸥

Kim Dok-Ja might say the right things, but because he was worried about her life, he'd turn a blind eye to Kyle's plight .

⸢Why are you in a dilemma? Use that guy to smack the Demon King to death . Simple . ⸥

Han Su-Yeong would say something similar to that . Well, she never was all that interested in saving people's lives from the beginning, anyway . In order to end the absolute-worst situation in the best possible circumstances, she'd directly aim for the Demon King's neck by now .
And then, the dying Kyle's lips were mouthing the following words .
'Please, run away . '
However, his eyes were saying something else .
⸢Please… . Save me . ⸥
"Hui-Won-ssi . "
She heard Yi Hyeon-Seong's voice next .
She and he were the most similar out of everyone in .
Sure, their personalities and adaptabilities might be different, but at least when it came to a certain type of situation, they would always come to the exact same decision .

[Exclusive skill, 'Hellfire Lv . 10' is activating!]

There was no need to even hesitate here .
Because they too, were saved in the same manner in the past .
