Heavenly Demon Cultivation Simulation
chapter-253

“You come along too.”

Seol-Hwi, who was waiting at the front door, looked up.

It was because the Earth Demon, who came earlier, summoned him. In order to bring in this man, even the Earth Demon had to move.

“You are here?”

The Earth Demon and Seol-Hwi moved to a waiting room. And as the two approached the door, someone quickly ran to greet them.

“Right. Where is the The Bloody Death Warlord?”

“He was away for a while due to the training of his. It will be about an hour… so you want me to call him?”

“No, we came here without a prior appointment, so do not do that. Teaching one’s subordinates is important and it is worth waiting for. When the training is done, let me know.”

“I understand.”

After the man bowed and left, the Earth Demon sat down.

“Seems to be intentional to me.”

Seol-Hwi hinted at it.

The Earth Demon smiled.

“Might be, also maybe not.”

And he nodded.

“It is obviously so. As soon as we came for the Warlord, we were taken to the waiting room, and it is also a fact that the subordinate was too calm in how he informed us of his leader not being present here. If someone didn’t tell that subordinate in advance, they wouldn’t have reacted like that.”

Seol-Hwi was sure of it

The Earth Demon was the Fourth Disciple. And he was also the Heavenly Killing Star who could not be dealt with recklessly. Even so, dragging things out like this meant that he was taking the initiative.

Was there not a saying that the thirsty ones dug for wells? Even if the Earth Demon was a disciple of the Sect Leader, now Seol-Hwi felt bad for him.

This Warlord was intentionally doing it to increase the benefits he would get for taking someone’s side.

“Well, we can still consider ourselves lucky. It looks like we came here before others.”

“…”

Seol-Hwi did not want to object to the words of the Earth Demon any longer.

He did not even know what kind of person the Warlord was. And there was not much information on them either.

It was just that he was known to be very good. And it was to the extent where he was considered to be a man with guts who could enter a pool of dragons or den of tigers without a second thought.

His long term skill was assassination, and he had great ability to pursue the opponent. Also, probably because of such a nature, his troops were known to be stubborn and tenacious.

It was said that once a target was set for his Blood Strong Troops, they were like poisonous grudge-holding snakes who would resolve the issue at any cost.

Which was why the two of them were waiting desperately to meet the man. And feeling the time running out, the Earth Demon looked up.

“That… Fourth Disciple.”

The person who came to speak looked a bit embarrassed.

Swish

And this made the Earth Demon go stiff. It was because an unexpected person was behind him.

“Ugh… Fourth Disciple?”

Surprisingly, it was the Third Disciple.

“Long time no see, samae.”

The Earth Demon immediately got up and bowed.

The disciples of the Heavenly Demon being here was unexpected.

And the Third Disciple looked at the Earth Demon.

“To meet here… do we share the same purpose?”

“I think so. Everyone is looking for those who can help them in the future, right?”

“Huh.”

She walked over and sat across from the Earth Demon.

Plop

And then glared.

“Then the Fourth Disciple should give us some concessions. I heard you persuaded the Black Demon Warlord, shouldn’t it be our turn now?”

“I apologize, but that is difficult to do. The Bloody Death Warlord is one who is needed for the future that I hope to make.”

“Then you will not be happy because I prepared a lot to be here.”

She spoke with killing intent being released, and it was an unsaid warning that she would not hesitate to act if she had to.

Of course, she would not intend to go against the Earth Demon alone.

“Uh? Samae? Is the Fourth Disciple here too?”

Drrr

Then came another unexpected face.

The Third Disciple and the Earth Demon both looked shocked.

“What is it, is it your first time seeing me or something?”

Second Disciple, the Demon Lord.

Was he also aiming for the Bloody Death Warlord? What happened that he came here at the same time?

“Nothing happened?”

“Have you been well, sahyung?”

Both of them continued to speak, and the Demon Lord nodded as he sat down in one of the chairs. And then, he said as he supported his head with his palm,

“Things aren’t good. Because the warlord recruitment isn’t going well.”

“From what I hear, you brought in quite a lot of people…”

“Huh, aren’t you the same?”

Chak

The Demon Lord put his foot on the table and grinned while looking at the two.

“This time you both and me. It will not be easy.”

“Uh…?”

Drrrr

And then the door opened again and everyone looked there.

“Everyone seems to have gathered now.”

It was a man with an enormous form.

First Disciple.

Surprisingly, all the disciples had gathered in one place.

“Great sahyung, it has been so long.”

“You are here.”

“Glad to see you here.”

Shhh

As if everyone was waiting, they all got up and bowed to them, and the First Disciple nodded.

“Is great sahyung also interested in the Bloody Death Warlord?”

The Second Disciple asked. As expected, he was one who could say whatever he wanted to. And the First Disciple responded calmly,

“The more talented people we gather the better, isn’t that right, Earth Demon?”

In an instant, everyone’s eyes turned to the Earth Demon, and Seol-Hwi felt a little scared for him.

It seemed like the youngest they had not been wary of all this time was now someone to keep their eyes on.

“I am working on the same thing. It isn’t easy, but every bit helps little by little,”

The Earth Demon said softly.

He was definitely different from his past self. He seemed more stable now.

It was probably thanks to all the people he recently got on his side.

Thanks to that, he could handle this provocation easily.

“So when will the Warlord come?”

The Third Disciple roared and stood up. Not just her but the other disciples were also doing the same. The person in charge of serving the disciples had a pale face.

“I-I will call him right away…”

“Ohh, is everyone gathered?”

Drrr

Then, as if it was waiting for that moment, the door opened and the man smiled walking in.

“Bloody Death Warlord. Greetings are late.”

With a slender body and a thick navy blue robe which priests wear, the man bowed his head to the disciples.

“Second Disciple.”

“Third Disciple.”

“Fourth Disciple.”

While the disciples greeted him, only the First Disciple came,

“Have we met before?”

“Yes and at that time you were remarkable,”

The Warlord said while bowing.

Tuk

He set down his books which were tucked within his armpits on the round table. Then he asked the disciples,

“Did everyone come here to take me in?”

His words were so natural.

The eyes of the Third Disciple which were looking at him changed fiercely. Judging from the situation happening, he deliberately seemed to be doing this.

Shhh

The Second Disciple stood up and said as if they had been waiting for that moment.

“Yes. As you know, several Warlords have decided on a position recently, and so we have come to recruit you. Is there anything you want? If you come to me, I will give you anything you want.”

He was so dignified in a situation where he could be rude. Moreover, it was clear what his goal was.

“Oho, anything I want?”

“Be it money, a position, pills for improving your subordinates, just say the word. You should already know what I am capable of. And in this war, our side is the one which has many opportunities,”

The Second Disciple said without another thought.

Every word, it seemed as if he was firmly preparing to accept the man.

“If it is the Second Disciple, then I am well aware of what you are capable of. But, I know that you put a lot of effort into getting the other Warlords…?”

“That is nothing compared to what you are. If you come, you will be treated right.”

The Second Disciple answered back boldly.

It was an attitude that said if needed he would abandon the treatment of others for the sake of this one.

The eyes of the Warlord lingered on him.

“Shouldn’t you listen to our thoughts too?”

At that time, the Third Disciple intervened. Thinking that she would miss this chance, she quickly began to speak.

“I know what the Warlord considers to be important. Training methods, using the terrain, stealth, and the footwork useful for the sect. We have prepared all the things needed for your Blood Strong Troops to get stronger.”

“…Hoh.”

“Even the cooperation of masters who lived in seclusion. We plan to help train the members and are considering passing down the secret skills.”

She also came out strong. Everyone wanted him.

This, of course, caught his attention.

“This… I didn’t think the Third Disciple would look after us like this.”

It was different from the Second Disciple, she could confidently speak about what she would offer instead of vague words.

“Hmm, this…”

Although he had not listened to the words of the other disciples, the heart of the Bloody Death Warlord looked tilted in one direction now.

This woman would give him support. And it was difficult to get such.

So while he was thinking,

“When I become the Sect Leader, you will be the sub leader.”

The First Disciple threw in a bomb.

“…!”

“…!”

“…!”

Silence fell. And the rest of the disciples all looked shocked. In particular, even the Warlord seemed a bit taken back.

The Heavenly Demon Sect Leader—

The First Disciple surely had the power to do all that, and he openly spoke of the power he could give. Actually, the position of sub leader was not a special one, it was just who became the next leader.

In the first place, since he was the most powerful person, the Warlord did not think the offer would be much.

“Huh, this…”

The First Disciple’s unexpected offer made the Warlord turn to the Earth Demon.

Can you offer anything more? Was what his gaze said.

“I will listen to the Warlord and the conditions he wants.”

The Earth Demon’s words were small and plain. Compared to the other disciples, who had promised full support earlier, his words looked shady in comparison.

“Hmm.”

The eyes of the Bloody Death Warlord changed. However, he soon went back to his usual expression and he continued to speak,

“Let me tell you first. I made up my mind a few days back. The dream of being the hands and feet of the disciples and to risk our lives for those who want to fight for power. I am waiting for it every day.”

“…”

“But before that, there is something I wish to see. This is something I have been waiting for a long time. It is an honor to be able to see such a scene.”

His tone did not seem ordinary, so it was odd.

The dream of a power struggle which looks at death? There was madness in the words of the man.

“I love to teach.”

“…”

“…?”

“When I see a person with excellent potential and great stubbornness pushed to the brink of going past their limits. I feel my body get turned on.”

“…!”

“…?”

“So this is my suggestion. Give me a chance to teach, the best of yours.”

Jump

Seol-Hwi stood up without realizing.

This insane bastard!

The Bloody Death Warlord. He was playing with the disciples.

“How is it? Would you like to train at the Blood Strong Troops for three weeks? You don’t have to come out on your own, just a subordinate of yours is enough… I will try to evaluate them with a score.”

He looked at the disciples and said,

“Any plans to respond?”

This was his suggestion.
