Chapter 321: The Resurrection of the King of Carnage
“...Who?”
“He said he’s the Emperor of Blood and Iron.”
“Really?”
“Yeah.”
“Kuk, kuk kuk kuk…” Kang Chul-In laughed.
“W-What’s wrong…”
“Kuk kuk…”
“Hey… y-you’re scaring me…”
“Kuk… so that’s what happened… alright…!”
However, Kang Chul-In didn’t answer Dorian and just muttered to himself.
Shiver!
Dorian trembled at the ominous feeling running down his back.
“The Emperor of Blood and Iron… explain what happened in detail.”
“Hm?”
“Tell me what happened.”
“T-That’s…”
Dorian felt wronged at Kang Chul-In’s sharp attitude but he didn’t point it out. It was because he thought that there was a reason why Kang Chul-In was being like that.
“So…”
Dorian began to spill everything.
***
Heh.
Dorian was shocked when he saw Kang Chul-In’s smile.
“W-What? Did you follow me here?”
Why was the person who ordered him to find the grave of the Emperor of Blood and Iron already here? Dorian thought he was tricked.
“Of course…” Kang Chul-In replied. “Not.”
“What is it then? Kang Chul-In, you really…”
“No.” Kang Chul-In shook his head.
“Huh…?”
“I’m not Kang Chul-In.”
“What? Are you kidding me right now? I might be a pushover, but even I don’t like these kinds of bad jokes.”
Dorian seemed to be acknowledging that he was a pushover now.
“Huh? Since when has your hair been that long…”
There were a few things different about the Kang Chul-In in front of him. Something’s strange. Something was definitely strange. The Kang Chul-In he knew didn’t have long black hair like a rock star and didn’t have the same red eyes that Arshelly did.
It was strange. The person in front of him looked extremely similar to the Kang Chul-In he knew, but the overall atmosphere around him was darker and foreign.
And his clothes… The man who looked similar to Kang Chul-In was obviously someone of a high position. They must’ve been made out of precious material. The iridescent red crown looked like it was made of material out of this world, and his clothes also showed that he was an important person.
“W-Who are you…?”
Click.
Dorian gripped the God Hand gauntlet in his fists after realizing that it wasn’t Kang Chul-In.
“I...” However, the person ignored Dorian’s powerful gesture and spoke. “Am Julius Berlineta Pon Aurangzeb.”
“W-What?”
“The 27th emperor of the great Ancient empire and my nickname is the Emperor of Blood and Iron.”
“Emperor of Blood and I-Iron…?”
Dorian had an astonished expression. The Emperor of Blood and Iron? This person was saying that he was the owner of the grave he had been raiding.
“W-What… you’re really the Emperor of Blood and Iron?”
“I don’t answer questions I’ve answered already.”
“Hm?”
“You pushover.”
“...!”
“Kang Chul-In, bring that guy here.”
“P-Pushover?”
Tremble tremble…!
Dorian’s body shook.
“Are… you… done… taking…? Huh?”
His anger was understandable. He was annoyed that everyone called him a pushover, and even this person calling himself the Emperor of Blood and Iron was calling him a pushover. Not to mention, this was the first time they were meeting.
“I’m just calling it as I see it.”
“What?”
“Stop with the chit chat and bring Kang Chul-In to me.”
“This bastard really…!”
The angry Dorian swung his fust.
Smack!
It was a loud sound.
“Ack!”
But the one who hunched over wasn’t the man who called himself the Emperor of Blood and Iron.
“Aack…” Dorian groaned. “H-How…?”
“This won’t do.”
Smirk!
He wore a cold smile.
That meant…
“I guess you need some mental training?”
It was a merciless response.
“N-No!”
“Yes.”
At the same time,
Pababababac!
The man who looked like Kang Chul-In began to punch Dorian’s head, shoulders, knees and toes, knees and toes…
Yep, his entire body.
“Aaaack!”
A scream exploded from Dorian’s mouth.
***
“...So.”
Kang Chul-In opened his mouth with a flabbergasted face.
“You were beaten up a bunch?”
“Yeah…”
“Without being able to get a single punch in?”
“He was stronger than you.”
“...”
“I’m being serious… I couldn’t hit him at all…”
A vein popped out of Kang Chul-In’s forehead. A man’s pride! Of course he would be upset that his best friend (?) Dorian said the Emperor of Blood and Iron was stronger than him.
“That’s because you’re weak.” Kang Chul-In mocked Dorian. “How useless. You should've trained harder.”
“W-What?”
“What if you met an illusion or a superior doppelganger that wasn’t the Emperor of Blood and Iron? You’re not actually believing that someone from a thousand years ago is still alive, right?”
“T-That’s true, but he wasn’t an illusion or a doppelganger!”
“What do you mean he wasn’t?”
