Chapter: 423

“Great Guardian! What has happened... huh?”

Fourth Elder Ja Kinkeng then found Chun Yeowun standing on the dead body of Sahin the Blade Fist. Ja Kinkeng thought they would still be fighting, but the fight was already over.

‘By the gods... did he just killed warrior from Blade God Six Martial clan alone?’

Ja Kinkeng frowned. He had fought against warrior from Blade God Six Martial clan on the battle at Jurkang castle, so he knew how dangerous these foes were.

‘Is he a monster?’

He already thought Chun Yeowun was a monster when Yeowun killed Mu Jinwon, but this proved Chun Yeowun was much more powerful than other elders. Unlike Ja Kinkeng, 10th Elder Yin Moha quickly came over to Yeowun and asked for his safety.

“Crown Prince. Are you unhurt?”

“...I am fine.”

His injuries were already healed by Nano, so he was okay. Only thing he was concerned was the Great Guardian witnessing his Sky Demon Sword. Yeowun heard from Left Guardian that Guardians succeeded will of the Sword Demon, but he also heard that Great Guardian was a most loyal servant to the current Lord.

“Crown Prince, it’s good that you’re safe.”

But unlike his concern, Great Guardian Marakim only asked for Yeowun’s safety and did not mention the Sky Demon Sword.

‘What is he thinking?’

Yeowun became curious, but soon the Lord and other warriors arrived at the library. The Lord wasn’t all that excited when he saw Sahin’s dead body. It simply looked like he was penetrated to death to untrained eyes, but the Lord saw a clear mark of sword trace over it.

‘...Is this really his doing?’

If it was, then it meant Chun Yeowun did not use his best against Mu Jinwon. The Lord was now becoming more wary of Chun Yeowun. After looking at the sword trace for a long time, the Lord then turned his attention to the underground treasure vault.

“Was the enemy after this place?”

‘Ah...’

Great Guardian Marakim hesitated. They managed to defend themselves against from enemy, but it led to another problem. This incident had revealed the existence of the underground treasure vault that Guardians had kept it secret for generations.0

“I asked, is this the place that the enemy came after?”

“...That is correct, my Lord.”

The Lord then frowned and walked down to the vault. The vault had nothing left, however. There was only a faint sign of something being burnt down. All skill books left by Sword Demon were completely burned.

‘Such place was hidden under the Demonic Academy...’

This was a secret that even the Lord himself did not know, but the enemy somehow knew and came after it. This made the Lord become very uncomfortable. He then glared at Great Guardian Marakim who stood aside him.

‘So, you were hiding this from me?’

Every guardian and ones who stood guard in this library had lied to the Lord about the truth of this place. Marakim sensed the Lord’s anger and became grim.

‘What is this?’

And for Chun Yeowun, he was surprised by what he saw that was inside the satchel. He thought enemies came here to retrieve the martial art from Sword Demon, but it wasn’t. Only ones that enemies from Blade God Six Martial clan wanted as the remains of Blade God himself.

‘So, they weren’t after skill books from Sword Demon?’

Yeowun then realized that the enemy, Sahin, knew Sword Demon’s sword skill. But if they were descendants of the Blade God, then why they wanted remains that contained Blade God’s blade marks? That was a question that couldn’t be answered.

The night became very frantic for the entire Demonic Cults. Guardian warriors searched through the Demonic Academy for any possible remaining enemies, and took care of dead bodies of guards at the library. All elders and warriors were also called to search the entire castle for any more possible enemies, but there were no more traces of any other enemies.
