I flew over the Orca Kingdom for a while with Drain. The destination was naturally Satan’s location. However, I could only go that way for a while. Shortly thereafter, birds appeared from all sides to fill the sky. They were pigeons from the Orca Kingdom that had been contaminated with demonic energy. To be honest, they were more like pterosaurs than pigeons. Perhaps it was natural since Satan had been fond of raising animals since he was a constellation.
“Go down first.”
“Wow, Buroder can fly in the sky now?”
Drain showed a very surprised expression when he saw me floating in the air using the Flying Weather Dance, Stepping on Clouds. I didn’t have any time to reply to him. The pterosaurs were already flying here quickly.
“Jinny, please look after this guy.”
“I know, reum!”
After Jinny and Drain disappeared, I took out Atlas’ Cloud Confection and bit it while confronting the group of pterosaurs. I sucked in deeply and exhaled. As I exhaled, the clouds covered my entire body. In the middle, I pushed the clouds forward and whispered to myself, “Grow, Yeouicho.”
In an instant, Yeouicho stretched out and mercilessly swept away the pterosaurs in the front. The pterosaurs succumbed to the power of Yeouicho and fell from the sky. Underneath me, Drain’s mouth fell open and he screamed, “Oh, Jesus!”
I calmly dropped down to the ground. It would be nice to continue moving through the air, but more demonic beasts were coming from the sky than before. If so, was there no choice other than to go by land?
"Oh mai gosh. When did you become so strong?”
“Many things happened while I didn’t see you.”
“It looks like it.”
“Let’s move.”
Drain and I started running across the land to Orca’s royal castle. It was just that there were also demons on the land. The demonic beasts attacked the helpless power of Orca. Then we were able to encounter Aries and the constellations on their way to protect the people.
[The castle is in the air!]
The place Aries pointed at was the sky. Orca’s royal castle was floating in the sky and the appearance was overbearing. This created a problem once again.
“...It won’t be easy to penetrate.”
The problem was that it was in the sky. It would be okay if I rode Jinny, but it was clear that the endless number of demonic beasts would attack. I had Yeouicho, but I could only use it one more time. It would be frustrating if I couldn’t use it at a critical moment during the fight against Satan. Just then...
“Oh, leave it to me.”
Drain confidently stepped forward and made the pincer of his right hand even bigger. Aries recognized Drain.
[Is this Kirkinos’ household...?]
[The crab star, ‘Kirkinos,’ is greeting Aries.]
[...It is.]
[The crab star, ‘Kirkinos,’ is saying she has a lot of hair.]
[Shut up! You perverted bastard! If you’re going to act, then do it quickly!] Aries blushed and shouted to the sky.
After this brief quarrel, Drain suddenly started cutting at the ground with his pincers. Drain’s pincers cut it as easily as cutting paper. Finally, Drain cut a path through the Orca Kingdom in a straight line. It was the power of Kirkinos, the one with the power of ‘scissors that cuts all things.’
It would’ve been perfect if there was the Dimensional Scissors Star Piece, but cutting stones on the ground was nothing to the current Drain. Drain lightly wiped the sweat, lifted the ground with his pincers and yelled with the veins on his forehead bulging, “Haaayaahh!”
He was filled with great strength as he lifted the land and it flew toward the floating castle. It was spectacular like a train flipping over. The dust disappeared with a loud sound and there was a long piece of ground leading to the floating castle in the sky. I couldn’t help laughing when I saw it. “Huhu...”
[The crab star, ‘Kirkinos,’ is asking if you know the taste of crab.]
Just then, eight crab legs made of magic power appeared behind Drain’s back. This was one of the powers of Kirkinos, who was regarded as perfect in both attack and defense.
“I’m going first, Buroder.”
Drain suddenly disappeared, running sideways like a crab. This was also one of Kirkinos’ skills called ‘Crab Save Me.’

At Dark Moon, Crescent’s cave...
Crescent, the sacred creature of the moon, was brought down here under the command of Hecatiana, the goddess of moon and magic. It was a command given following Lupeon’s death. Hecatiana was the goddess of magic so he was also proficient in tracking magic. It was easy to see that Antares, who killed Lupeon, had fled to Dark Moon.
Hecatiana would come here soon with the witches and wizards of Oz so she had Crescent covey her will to the dokkaebi king. Therefore, Crescent was staying at the residence of the dokkaebi king for a while. He just never dreamed he would meet his kin here.
“Guruk?”
Chunza cocked her head. Currently, only Chunza and Crescent were in this cave. Chunza was curious about Crescent because it was the first time she had seen another being with the same pupils as her. Crescent stared into the eyes of the Lechuza called Chunza and recalled the past.
A day when four special moons overlapped.
The super moon, an incredibly huge moon.
A blue moon where the moon was dyed blue.
A blood moon, where the moon was dyed red.
The lucky moon that occurred on December 25th.
The Lechuza would only have an egg on the day these four conditions were met. The Lechuza’s egg only awakened when they received the energy of these four moons at the same time. “It was probably around 120 years ago... It feels new.”
Crescent stared at the child in front of her with a meaningful expression. He had no choice but to hide his egg. In order to avoid the eyes of Jupiter who wanted to steal his child, he broke the egg with his own hands. Crescent was filled with guilt as he threw the egg into the Atlan Sea. It was because he wished it would die in a place he couldn’t see rather than due to his own hands.
‘Yet she came back alive...’
Crescent suddenly thought that fate was truly strange. Chunza hadn’t properly awakened the magic power of the moon. He wondered if it was right to play the role of parent now when he hadn’t done so for 120 years.
‘Am I qualified?’
Just then, Chunza made a sound and smashed her face against his legs. She couldn’t speak so she was communicating with her body. The current action meant it was nice to meet him. Crescent’s eyes couldn’t help turning red.
“......”
He made a decision. It might be a little late, no, even a lot late, but he decided to do it properly.
“First of all, I must teach you to speak. You are a Lechuza like me so you’ll learn quickly. Additionally, you need to change your appearance like me. Let’s see, I’ll first create a barrier of time and space here. Then...”
Crescent made an infinitely loving smile. 𝑓𝙧𝘦𝘦we𝘣𝙣𝘰𝘃𝗲l.com

At the East Continent, Murim...
The people rushing to attack Demon King Beelzebub were forced to stop when the zombie Tai Chi daoist immortal appeared in front of them. Strangely, the antidote didn’t work. The energy from the antidote covered the Tai Chi daoist immortal but that was it.
The Tai Chi daoist immortal was still growling and watching them.
[Unfortunately, his energy is too strong and the antidote isn’t working. I only tested it once so I didn’t expect this type of situation...]
Camille looked at the Tai Chi daoist immortal with sad eyes. She was afraid he needed to be killed. This was the only way to save him.
Namgung Yun pulled out the sword hanging from his waist. Then he stepped forward and spoke to those standing behind him. “He has fought for Murim for a long time. We unfortunately can’t return him to normal with an antidote, but we can’t leave him this way. I will save him. The others will go attack the demon king.”
Then Namgung Yun moved like a bow and quickly appeared in front of the Tai Chi daoist immortal, swinging his sword. The zombie Tai Chi daoist immortal easily blocked the sword with one arm. He had become a zombie and his skin was harder than a sword. His sword was easily blocked but Namgung Yun didn’t panic. It wasn’t a big surprise because it had happened in the past.
However, Namgung Yun had a secret weapon. A blue energy rose from his body and reached the sky. What followed was a sudden change in weather. Thunderbolts struck through the dark clouds and the rain and wind raged. Abruptly, a thunderbolt struck Namgung Yun’s head, slowly peeling off the skin of his body and changing his appearance. The rough skin seemed to resemble a tree.
“Huup!”
Namgung Yun gritted his teeth and endured the pain. This was a great power but the side effects were big. He would have to lie down for three days when it was used. The duration was around two hours. If he hadn’t hesitated to use this the last time, then then the Tai Chi daoist immortal in front of him would’ve survived. He had already suffered one regret.
Namgung Yun transformed into a dragon and he spoke while mobilizing the energy in his body, “Go!”
At the same time, Namgung Yun made the thunderbolt settle in his sword and thrust the sword forward. The thunderbolt stretched out at the speed of light and struck the zombie. The thunderbolt didn’t stop there. It peeled the skin off little by little, as if tearing at the body of the Tai Chi daoist immortal. The sect leaders watching from behind looked surprised.
“Amazing. The leader actually hid this strength?”
“Let’s go. We must kill the demon king!”
“Let’s all hurry!”
The members of Murim left first. Park Muyeol nodded at Namgung Yun before disappearing. Inumusiki smiled happily at the new appearance of his proud disciple.
[You have become much stronger.]
“I am embarrassed.”
[I will wait for you.]
“Yes.”
Inumusiki left and Michael followed. Zhen Sulong and the others had already gone far away. All that remained here were the zombie Tai Chi daoist immortal and Namgung Yun, the leader of Murim. It was just the two of them.
“Tai Chi daoist immortal... My hesitation last time made you this way. I’m sorry.”
“Grrruk.”
“However, I won’t hesitate anymore. It is late, but I will save you. This is the only apology I can make.”
Namgung Yun once again flew forward. Thunderbolts flashed over their heads.
