The Main Characters That Only I Know-Chapter 283:

Chapter 283

“You’re kidding, right? Martial arts with that body?”

“Isn’t he just imitating something?”

The Unleashed fighters couldn’t hide their doubt as they saw Darwin’s Demon take a strange stance.

Martial arts with that body? And with only the upper body being abnormally huge? Wouldn’t that mess up the balance of the body?

The fighters shook their heads and thought.

He must have seen something somewhere and copied it, they thought.

What could he do with that physique, they thought.

Darwin’s Demon moved at that moment.

Swoosh.

Darwin’s form collapsed like it melted into water.

More precisely, it disappeared from its place, leaving an afterimage.

No one could react to that sudden movement.

“Huh? Where did he go?”

Boom!

A sound rang out from behind them.

Silence fell in an instant.

Everyone slowly turned their heads.

There, Darwin’s Demon was standing still, extending his fist.

In front of him, one of the rear magicians had fallen dead. Only his torso remained, his head was gone.

“Wha, what is this.”

“I didn’t see his movement…”

Darwin’s Demon didn’t wait for their reaction and moved again.

This time, because they were tense, the Unleashed fighters also reacted.

But.

Boom!

On the opposite side, this time, the head of a man who was in the front exploded.

Again, Darwin’s Demon was standing in front of him, with his fist thrust out.

The magician who died before was not good at close combat, so he might not have been able to react, but the one who died this time was a swordsman who fought in the front line.

Even such a swordsman died without reacting.

“This, this monster bastard!”

Someone shouted and lunged at Darwin’s Demon with a spear.

The spearhead with a blue aura aimed at his vital point and stabbed quickly.

At the same time, Darwin’s Demon, who had been frozen like a statue, moved.

Darwin’s Demon didn’t move his body, only his hand moved slightly. It was so slow that it made them wonder what he could do with that.

Thud.

His huge palm lightly hit the spear shaft from the side.

At that moment, the spear that was going straight met a huge whirlpool and was sucked in like a boat.

Before they knew it, Darwin’s Demon had grabbed the spear that was thrust at him.

He caught it?

The collector who had stabbed the spear shouted before he could be surprised.

“What are you doing! Attack him at once!”

The fighters clenched their teeth and attacked Darwin’s Demon.

In the darkness, the aura on their weapons glowed ominously.

They aimed at his gaps and countless slashes rained down on Darwin’s Demon like rain.

Darwin’s Demon let go of the spear and moved his arms.

The aura trails that cut through the darkness were drawn to Darwin’s hand and then merged into one and flew to one side.

“Gah!”

The flow of aura headed to the abdomen of the fighter who had stabbed the spear.

He died without even knowing why he was attacked.

His organs had already lost their function and burst into pieces.

Internal Heavy Hand Technique (內家重手法).

Darwin’s Demon used a high-difficulty technique that was hard to learn and execute with ease.

Everyone realized it.

The martial arts that Darwin’s Demon showed were not just for show, but real ones that no one could match.

“He can perfectly execute martial arts with that body?”

“…That’s totally cheating.”

Darwin’s demon did not stop even when his opponent lost his will.

He had received an order.

His master wanted him to sweep them all away.

Then, he would just carry it out.

There was no emotion of mercy in him.

Darwin’s demon clenched his fist again.

***

There was no need for Yu-hyun to step in against 50 enemies.

His four demons were enough to not only face them, but overwhelm them.

Yu-hyun stood still in his place and searched hard for something.

Jincheongun was not here either. But knowing his personality, he wouldn’t have sent these 50 guys without thinking.

Even if it wasn’t him, there must be someone somewhere.

Someone close to him.

‘Eyes.’

At that moment, Yu-hyun felt the same eyes he had felt before.

He turned his head. Four pupils pierced through the darkness beyond. A gap between the dense trees on a distant mountain.

There, he felt a wave of emotion filled with panic.

“You’re there.”

Yu-hyun moved.

***

‘I’ve been caught!’

Shena Lynch ran away as soon as she realized that Yu-hyun had recognized her.

It was dark at night, and the distance was quite far, so she thought she wouldn’t be caught carelessly.

That was her mistake, if it was a mistake.

She knew that Yu-hyun had felt her gaze back then, but she didn’t think he could pinpoint her exact location.

‘He’s gotten stronger!’

Was that even possible?

The only change that could have made Yu-hyun stronger was when Jincheongun tried to trap him in a trap recently.

That meant that the monster had grown unbelievably in there, but she wondered if that was realistic.

‘First of all, I have to run away. As far as possible, to a place where I won’t be noticed.’

Shena Lynch ran like the wind.

People have a misconception.

They think that archers only have good eyes and attack from a distance.

But archers had to have physical abilities comparable to those who stood in the front line.

They had to have the strength to shoot arrows far away, the agility to get out of the scene quickly when their position was exposed, and the brain to recognize all kinds of factors for sniping from afar.

Shena Lynch was a perfect archer in that sense.

She ran through the forest path with agility that matched a high-level collector.

The dense trees couldn’t block her way. She jumped over rocks, stepped lightly on branches, and went ahead without hesitation on the complicated path.

The only thing that touched her skin was the wind.

But she couldn’t relax.

She ran and ran until her mouth tasted bitter, even though she had already gone far enough from the point where she couldn’t see the battlefield where her subordinates were fighting.

‘Haa. Haa. Now, I should be fine.’

She had come so far from the scene that she couldn’t even see it.

And she didn’t feel any signs of anyone chasing her.

She thought this might be enough and slowed down her speed.

She stopped in her place and looked back, just in case.

All she saw was a dark forest path with nothing in it.

“Haa. Haa. Phew.”

Shena breathed out the breath she had been holding and rubbed her chest.

She thought it was over when their eyes met for the first time, but it seemed like she somehow shook him off.

For now, she had to go back to Jincheongun and report what she had seen.

That man Yu-hyun had become much stronger than before, and he couldn’t be matched with any ordinary force.

Shena turned her body to move to the check point where they had agreed to meet up.

As she turned her head,

She faced a black mask right in front of her nose.

“…!”

The moment she saw the four red eyes staring at her quietly, she felt her heart drop.

She didn’t scream out of surprise because she couldn’t even muster up the courage to do so.

She felt her head go blank right now.

‘How did he?’

He chased after me from that far away? And without being noticed by me, a born archer?

His ability to hide his presence was impressive, but more than that, what surprised her was his speed and stamina.

She ran with all her might and was still exhausted, but the being in front of her eyes showed no signs of fatigue at all.

‘Space travel? No. That’s not it. If he had that, he would have caught me sooner. This is just him following me from the start.’

Shena trembled unconsciously.

To Yu-hyun, who surpassed this side’s physical abilities with ease, losing distance to him as an archer meant losing her life as well.

While doing so, Yu-hyun kept staring at her.

Four red eyes drew a crescent moon inside the mask.

“Are you done running away?”

The moment she heard that voice, Shena desperately resisted the urge to collapse as her legs gave out.

She clenched her fists and bit her lip, as if whipping her trembling body with fear.

Yu-hyun leisurely watched Shena.

“Where is Jin Cheongwoon?”

“…”

“So you won’t answer? Well, I guess it doesn’t matter.”

Shena Lynch suddenly felt a wave of dizziness and staggered in her seat.

Her eyes shook violently as if there was an earthquake.

‘It’s a mental attack!’

The Unleashed officers had stories related to mental immunity, in case they were captured and interrogated.

They were immune to ordinary hypnosis, mind control, or perception alteration.

The officers all had strong mental power, so they could resist even very powerful mental attacks.

But what was this?

‘Is there such a mental attack?’

Shena felt her mind and values being shaken.

No matter how strong her mental power was, she couldn’t deny the power of Descartes’ demon.

“Come on, show me. The stories you have.”

‘No, no!’

Shena closed her eyes.

She intended to avoid eye contact, but it was already too late.

She had been caught by Descartes’ power the moment she met his gaze.

Yu-hyun planned to extract information about Jin Cheongwoon from Shena Lynch.

Where he was now, what he did in the past, and what his purpose was.

Everything without exception.

He could do it by breaking down the boundary between reality and illusion for her.

“Stop tormenting my people, will you?”

It was then that Jin Cheongwoon’s voice was heard.

Shena opened her eyes. Yu-hyun’s gaze also turned to where the voice came from.

There, Jin Cheongwoon walked slowly towards them with only one subordinate under the moonlight.

“You finally showed up.”

Yu-hyun withdrew his power from Shena.

Shena finally fell to the ground.

Her trembling eyes looked at Jin Cheongwoon.

“Captain…”

“I’m sorry. I should have come to save you sooner, but I was a bit late.”

“Ho, how could you come here…”

“Sorry to interrupt your conversation.”

Yu-hyun cut off Shena’s words and glared at Jin Cheongwoon.

“Don’t we have something to settle between us?”

“Yes.”

Jin Cheongwoon nodded with a bitter smile.

Yu-hyun didn’t like his relaxed attitude. He glanced at the man standing next to Jin Cheongwoon.

‘Who is he?’

He couldn’t see him not because it was dark, but because he was literally wrapped in darkness.

He couldn’t even tell what color his book was because he was next to Jin Cheongwoon.

He was not an ordinary guy for sure. Otherwise, Jin Cheongwoon wouldn’t have shown up in front of him with only one person.

‘He must be confident.’

The guy with the power of prophecy must have a trump card that would help him.

Yu-hyun knew that, but he didn’t feel worried or afraid.

“Since you revealed yourself so brazenly, you must have something to rely on. Tell me. What are you relying on?”

“Can’t you figure it out?”

“You know we can’t interfere with each other’s powers, right?”

Yu-hyun gave up on using the devil’s power on Jin Cheongwoon.

He was immune to Laplace’s power as well.

Maxwell and Descartes couldn’t show him illusions either. 𝔣𝖗𝔢𝖊𝔴𝖊𝔟𝔫𝔬𝖛𝔢𝖑.𝔠𝔬𝔪

Only Darwin’s power was not applied to the opponent, but engraved on his own body.

But considering the hidden card next to Jin Cheongwoon, that wouldn’t be easy either.

Jin Cheongwoon knew that too, so he appeared at this strange timing with only one subordinate. Anything more would be overkill and only boost Yu-hyun’s fighting Divine Spirit.

“Yu-hyun Teller. Let’s talk for a moment.”

“Talk? What talk? Do we have anything to talk about?”

“Aren’t you curious about what the Book of Genesis is?”

“…”

The card that Jin Cheongwoon played was what Yu-hyun was most curious about.

His boiling fighting Divine Spirit vanished in an instant.

“How do you know about that?”

“I know this sounds strange, but I’m a bit special.”

“Special, huh… So you have it too.”

“So what? Are you interested in talking to me now?”

“Not talking, but curious.”

His eyes behind the mask glowed more intensely.

“Tell me. What do you know? Do you know everything?”

“Not everything, but a lot. Your power, my power. They all originated from here.”

“What is the Genesis Book?”

“The book that contains the first story.”

Jin Cheong-woon spoke surprisingly calmly about what he knew.

“The power of Logos’ will.”

Logos?

A name that Yu Hyun had never heard before came from Jin Cheong-woon.
