Chapter 55: Not a Legend, but a Legend

[Not a beam from the eyes, but a beam from the mouth?]

[An excessively novel attack method]

[This was unexpected]

[What kind of girl shoots a beam from her mouth!]

[Are you some kind of dragon?]

Viewers, dumbfounded, each chimed in with a word.

Among them, some unintentionally grasped the truth.

“Mouth, mouth, you say?”

If the viewers were like this, the person who was directly attacked felt even worse.

The sight of Red Moon, utterly devastated and muttering to himself, was pathetic.

Seyul’s attack had struck his chest accurately, piercing through it.

His heart was also damaged, leaving him in a state where he didn’t know when he would die.

“Releasing qi from the mouth? From the mouth?”

Even on the verge of death, Red Moon meaninglessly repeated the same words.

It showed how great the shock he had received was.

Although he looked miserable, no one laughed at Red Moon.

Logically, no one would expect anything to come out of the mouth.

The viewers also sympathized with his feelings.

“What are you so surprised about?”

However, Seyul, who had launched the absurd attack, remained calm.

In the game, he was human, but his true identity was a dragon.

For a dragon to shoot something from its mouth was only natural.

Since it was natural, he thought he could do it in the game as well.

And when he actually tried it, it worked.

This was the story of how he shot a beam from his mouth.

“There’s something more important than that. Aren’t you curious why you lost?”

Seyul, treating the attack that had shocked everyone as nothing, continued to speak.

“First, as I already said, it’s a matter of compatibility. You said that there’s nothing you can’t do with your own power, but the difference in innate attributes can’t be overcome that way.”

“Kuh!”

“Second, you wasted qi unnecessarily trying to overcome the compatibility difference with power.”

Turning Luoyang into ashes with the power of a mere human, launching nuclear explosion-level attacks, and so on.

Red Moon’s abilities, which showed various transcendent powers, were amazing, but their foundation was qi.

If he used his power without thinking, his qi would decrease, and Red Moon’s own abilities would inevitably decrease as well.

If he hadn’t wasted power unnecessarily, he could have withstood Seyul’s breath just now.

Because it was implemented in human form in the game, it was weaker than its original power.

“Finally, third. You, surprisingly, don’t have much practical experience, do you?”

Seyul pointed out his lack of practical experience as the third reason.

Red Moon was dumbfounded by those words.

“You, you dare say such things to me, the Lord of the Demonic Cult?”

Who was Red Moon?

The martial arts world was overflowing with strong people.

Among them, he was the supreme leader of the Demonic Cult, which held strength as its doctrine.

“I have defeated countless martial artists and risen to this position even before I became the Lord of the Demonic Cult. How dare you speak so recklessly…”

“How many of them were as skilled as you?”

Seyul interrupted.

Red Moon couldn’t answer the sudden question and closed his mouth.

“…”

“I see, not even one. Well, since you’re this strong now, you must have been incredibly strong in the past as well. So much so that it was hard to find an opponent.”

Seyul said.

That was your most critical reason for defeat.

“Because you don’t have practical experience fighting against equal opponents, you inevitably lost in the fight against me. You don’t know how to deal with opponents of the same level at all.”

“You bastard, you’re just spouting nonsense with that hole in your face! Then do you have such experience?”

Red Moon retorted with a resentful expression.

The reason he didn’t have experience fighting against equals was, as Seyul said, because it was hard to find an opponent.

Where could he find someone equal to a monster who could annihilate 30,000 people with a single blow?

For a long time, meeting Seyul today was all he had, so Red Moon thought that Seyul wouldn’t have such experience either.

He was indignant, saying that he was just showing off and talking big even though he didn’t have it himself, but,

“I do.”

Seyul replied in an honest tone that left no room for rebuttal.

‘Before reaching my current level, I had that experience several times, and even after reaching this level, there was ‘her’.’

Seyul briefly recalled the events that had happened in another world.

He looked at someone with a wistful expression before turning his gaze back to Red Moon.

“Do you have any last words?”

He was about to die, so he was going to listen to his last words before that, but.

Red Moon didn’t die quietly and screamed.

“I curse you, I curse you, you bastard!”

Tears of blood flowed from his eyes.

Red Moon, spitting blood from his mouth, shouted in a resentful voice.

“If only I had a little, a little more time! With just a little more time, I could have had this world in my hands!”

Red Moon had dreamed of an ambition to take the world into his hands, using his martial arts and the Demonic Cult.

And considering the countless powers he possessed, it was a possible ambition.

But just one person.

Everything went wrong because of one person who suddenly appeared without any rumors.

Not the world, but even his own life.

It wouldn’t be strange for Red Moon to be resentful, but,

“Impossible.”

Seyul denied Red Moon’s ambition in a firm voice.

“You’re going to take the world into your hands? How? Simply because you’re strong? That’s a ridiculous logic, so drop it.”

“What do you know…”

“According to that logic, I, who am stronger than you, could also take the world into my hands? But hey, do you think I look like I can dominate the world?”

Absolutely impossible.

At least Seyul himself thought so.

He boasted absolute power in another world, but in the end, he was barely able to take care of himself.

It was meant to be advice, but Red Moon didn’t listen.

“Hehe, is this the power of the martial arts world? I didn’t expect such an unknown absolute powerhouse to suddenly appear. But don’t be happy. Just as I died so futilely, you too will one day lose your life to a suddenly appearing master! I’ll be watching that scene from hell!”

He cursed Seyul and met his end.

But that curse would not come true.

Before his strength, Seyul didn’t live in the martial arts world.

[You can’t be killed by a martial arts master if you don’t live in the martial arts world]

[lololol]

The viewers just laughed at Red Moon, who had given an impossible curse.

‘Phew, I enjoyed it!’

On the other hand, Seyul, not caring at all about the curse, looked up at the sky with a relieved face.

‘It was a thrilling fight after a long time.’

Compatibility and so on.

Although it wasn’t as much as he had expected due to various problems, it was still satisfying enough.

Still, his level was equal to Seyul’s.

‘If it were reality, I wouldn’t have enjoyed it this much, even if they were of the same level.’

If it were reality, he would have overwhelmed them with the racial buffs that the inhuman possessed.

And the power of the dragon, magic, and so on.

‘Since it’s a game and not reality, it’s possible to fight thrillingly on equal terms. I’m liking it more and more.’

Seyul liked virtual reality even more because he could have satisfying fights.

‘Is there anyone else worth fighting?’

Seyul was trying to find a new victim after Red Moon.

It was then.

<Emergency Announcement!>

A huge announcement appeared in the sky.

<A critical error has occurred, and we will be entering emergency maintenance from now on>

<The maintenance period is uncertain, so it will be indefinite maintenance>

<We apologize for the inconvenience to our users. Zecros>

The game company.

Zecros had made an announcement that they were urgently entering maintenance.

“Zecros?”

Seyul, taken aback by the unexpected situation, blankly muttered the game company’s name, and,

[Emergency maintenance?]

[Indefinite!]

[Why suddenly?!]

The viewers were also confused, but there was an unavoidable reason.

In fact.

Red Moon was not supposed to fall here.

They said it was an event where users would defeat the Lord of the Demonic Cult, but it was different.

In the first place, he was not at a level that users could defeat.

The management team also had no intention of recklessly wasting a powerful level 9 character.

The original plan was like this.

If the users were pushed back by Red Moon, they would inject a new NPC at the right time.

The new NPC would defeat Red Moon with his power, but not kill him.

The escaped Red Moon would plot a new scheme, and a new story would unfold, including the new character.

This was the scenario that the game company originally intended to proceed with.

But now.

All of this was ruined like a dog.

The Demonic Cult was virtually annihilated by Seyul’s hand.

Red Moon also died, and the new character missed the timing to appear.

Since they had to overturn all the plans, they had no choice but to take the measure of indefinite maintenance.

In the end, the entire Murim Online server was shut down, and all users were forcibly logged out.

[…]

[Hey guys]

[Isn’t this because of Seyul noona?]

[…She ended up destroying a game]

The viewers who noticed were whispering.

Today, Seyul had become a legend in many ways.

Murim Online.

Indefinite maintenance.

This news shook the internet.

Indefinite maintenance.

This itself was a relatively common occurrence.

Normally, it would be something that people would just curse the game company for and move on.

But this time, the reason was special, so everyone couldn’t help but make a fuss.

[So]

[Murim maintenance is because of one user?]

[You mean the one who fought Red Moon at the end?]

Murim users are not foolish.

They realized that the developers had no intention of letting them defeat Red Moon in the first place.

But someone defeated him and they immediately went into maintenance, so everyone guessed what was going on.

[Are these guys really out of their minds?]

[I’m going crazy]

[Hehehe, what kind of game management is this!]

As those who guessed the situation spread the word, the reactions were largely divided into three categories.

One was the slander against the game company Zecros, which had ruined not only the event but also Season 2.

[So we can’t play the game because of one girl?]

[That’s right]

[What kind of girl is she!]

[It’s not her fault, but I don’t feel good about it]

[She enjoyed the game, but we suffered the damage]

[I can’t even curse her, ah!]

[I know]

[She ended up taking all the events]

[I even took a vacation to play Murim!]

Those who expressed regret to Seyul for creating this situation.

[Hey, you guys saw her face, right?]

[Yeah. She was really pretty]

[Her skills are as amazing as her face]

[Did you see the video that was uploaded?]

[She reached max level in Murim in just one day]

[They said she’s a female streamer, right?]

Finally, there were those who cheered for Seyul’s overwhelming skills and beauty.

As a result, this incident became an opportunity to spread Seyul’s recognition, whether in a bad or good way.

But Seyul didn’t show any reaction even while her name was spreading everywhere.

Of course, Seyul didn’t know about this, but even if she did, she wouldn’t have cared.

After that day.

Seyul was caught up in a more important and serious concern.
