Heavenly Demon Cultivation Simulation

hopes for life, but now—

A colleague he had neglected was losing his life trying to save him.

“Leader… go… from…”

“D-don’t speak.”

“From this hell… get out… please.”

“I told you to not speak!”

The blood which continued to flow made his head burn.

How could they survive here? But his head wasn’t working.

“This hell… abandon… us… and…”

Tuk

And the hand of Ju Myung fell down.

At the same time, it felt like something happened to Seol-Hwi.

“Stop!”

The subordinates were desperately trying to stop it.
It was a continuous flow of countless attacks with them attempting to block them all.

It was because he knew that even if one of them managed to get through, their defense would fall.

Kwak! Swish!

It had been coming for so long.
Songhwa approached Imugi who was looking for a way to retreat.

“This is a huge thing! Imugi-hyung.”

“What!”

“Look there.”

Looking at the place Songhwa was pointing at, they could see that those who guided them were also tired.

“What is it?”

“In the sewer, the demonic energy was suddenly released.
Since then things got weird.”

“Demonic energy? What…!”

Imugi groaned.

Lee Suk and Yuam, the ones who were the old subordinates to their captain.
They belonged to the Supreme Pavilion Lord.
Moreover, they supposedly learned a new martial art.

And for a sect member demonic arts was the same as breathing.

Perhaps someone who knew that there were men of the Supreme Pavilion Lord among them was deliberately channeling demonic energy and made sure to use it.

“Songhwa.
Can you block it?”

“Too late.
They have already figured it out, the demonic nature is breaking out.
And if we have to do it, then their body will stop breathing!”

“Eh…”

Imugi gritted his teeth.

These were people they had never met before and yet they helped them to get away from this crisis.
Above all, they are the old subordinates to their captain.
Yet—

“Kuaak!”

“Ack!”

Lee Suk along with Yuam screamed.
Others poured in attacks too.

“These…!”

Yong Jin approached them.
He wanted to end their lives at once without pain.

“NO! Do not kill them! They are the previous subordinates of the captain!”

“…!”

Yong Jin went stiff at it and turned.

“Captain! Captain!”

He called for Seol-Hwi, but he was still holding the fallen man.

“Damn it.
He’s still in shock.”

“This!”

The situation was at its worst.
But there was something which happened that could be considered as a nail in the coffin.

“KEKEKEK.”

“Kuak.”

Two people who seemed to have gone crazy due to the demonic nature taking over their body began to have their eyes turn yellow and—

Pat! Pat!

Imugi and Yong Jin quickly ran ahead.

-Nice to meet you.
I am Ju Myung.

That was strange.
Having a friend in the same situation as himself.

-Even if we don’t have a choice we need to work hard, isn’t there hope left?

Ju Myung.
A quick tempered and non-meticulous personality.
But he was passionate about things and a guy who always had hope for something good happening.

-Finally we got a chance?

Flying Squad was close to being a non-existent group.
And sometimes it was left idle for months.

Then they caught the eye of the Supreme Pavilion Lord, and received a task from him directly.
Ju Myung who heard about it was delighted like a student who had failed for decades but had finally passed.

But as if that would happen.
The reality they had was different, and Seol-Hwi abandoned his subordinates.
It was something he had to do to live.
And still, his subordinates sacrificed their lives to save him.

The fact was that the unchanging leash around his neck was something he could not get rid of.

“Ju Myung.
What good is escaping alone… I haven’t even had time to speak.”

It was still hidden.

Although the energy was gone, he was alive to speak.

“I couldn’t tell you because I escaped alone and tried to eat well and live well by myself.
To say that I abandoned you and used you to get a way for myself… I couldn’t tell you.”

Tears flowed from his eyes.

He wanted to ask for forgiveness or to at least tell them to hate him.

And even when such a chance came, he hesitated.

“…?”

It was then.

Ju Myung seemed to have something to say, his feeble breath still lingered and he glowed.
He seemed to be working up energy to speak his last words.

But—

Choose what you want to hear from him.>

▶Pleasant memories.
I will carry them

▷I want to be with you in the next life

▷I hate you

What is this?

Seol-Hwi felt his mind go cold.
Unlike before, he made no choice.

He was unable to choose and just stared at the words for a long time.

5… 4…

Time passed.
However, Seol-Hwi was unable to make any choice and just stared blankly.

‘Pleasant memories.
I will carry them.’>

“Pleasant memories.
I will carry them.”

The same words.
The words specified by the system came out of Ju Myung’s mouth.

“…”

Seol-Hwi didn’t respond to it.
He just blankly looked around and raised his head.

“What.
This…”

Kuaak!

He could see two who turned into crazy demons.
However, it felt awkward to see those he knew turn into monsters.

A person died.

A person he cared for died helping him.

“What the hell is…”

However, even in this situation, the system intervened.

This… is obvious mockery.

It was sarcastic mockery by the ones above who trampled on the lives of others.

Like that of a pervert looking down on the death of others from a distance, and the system had helped him.

-Just.
Because you seem to have a thing for romance.

Suddenly, the AI’s words passed through his mind.

They were words which made fun of their feelings, creating the true feelings and being able to enjoy them.

Like the game they made, he was being used as a character.

Testament—

The precious words Ju Myung spoke before death—

The involvement of him in the situation and to say such words when leaving—

“You fucking bastards who will tear the world apart…”

Only then did Seol-Hwi know.

Only then did he now realize the fact that his enemies were not just the enemies he could see before him.

And it was not just Jeok Myung who laughed at him, the Supreme Pavilion, or Goo Jung-myung too.

His enemies were deeper and stronger than he was, and it was then when he turned to Lee Suk.

Choose what you want to hear from him.>

The System—

The name of the one who ruined his life and turned it into a game.
