Chapter 105-The Incompetence (5)
Kwak Do-yeol could not accept the defeat of Chun Mu-baek. He had expected Kang Min-hyuk to challenge the Changcheon Checkpoint, prepared everything, and put Cheon Mu-baek, the Checkpoint’s best warrior, as the signboard’s protector. It was perfect. He thought there was no possibility of losing to Kang Min-hyuk, but there was Chun Mu-baek, bent double and gasping on the floor.

Following an exchange with the Changcheon Checkpoint, he was well aware of their secrets – he didn’t panic under any circumstance. Especially last.
“He is a wizard who is not afraid of swords.”
The tip of the blade shows no mercy. Instead of retreating, Kang Min-hyuk boldly chose to move forward and tore down Thousand Mu-baek’s territory. He didn’t tremble even as the blade passed right under his nose, trimming an inch off his hair. Kang Min-hyuk watched Chun Mu-baek’s movements to the end, staying calm throughout. He countered the attack with magic so powerful that even Chun Mu-baek couldn’t withstand it. His strength was exemplary, but his flesh was charred, and he was in a lot of pain.
Voices rose in a solid hum.
