Trash of the Count's Family

Choi Han had an aura like this now too.

This was different from his sword aura, mana, or internal ki.

The Blood Demon felt this stronger than anybody else.

“How is it, no, how did you-?!”

She had sneered while looking at the black yong and Choi Han jump into the vast blue aura.

She thought that this black yong, which resembled the white yong that had been gobbled up earlier, would suffer the same fate in this blue aura.

‘This aura is created from the life force of hundreds of thousands of people.’

The pure lives that had died such wrongful deaths turned this like a swamp.

It sucked up anything that jumped into it, giving anything and everything the same suffering they had gone through.

This was because all of the lives within it felt wronged and cheated with their deaths.

‘A human cannot escape once they are within this aura.’

One person could not defeat hundreds of thousands of people.

That was simple logic.

“Why-”

How was it that such logic was being crushed in front of her very eyes?

The Blood Demon could not believe what she was seeing.

The images of what was going on that happened in an instant in other people’s point of views were moving in slow motion for her.

Baaaaaang-

Charging forward with the black yong, Choi Han looked like a tiny dot in front of this large tsunami-like blue aura.

However, that black dot managed to cross through the tsunami.

It traveled slowly at first but eventually sped up.

“How is this-”

The Blood Demon could see it.

Pure life force. Pure life force was the reason that those existences that suffered through such wrongful deaths raged and sucked in other lives in this swamp-like aura.

At first, those existences had attacked Choi Han.

Now, they were withdrawing.

No, they were running away.

This aura looked large but it was made up of countless small life forces.

They were unable to defeat Choi Han.

“How is that possible……?!”

The Blood Demon was basically screeching. Her eyes were full of rage.

This small black dot…

To be more specific, the black aura surrounding the black yong and Choi Han…

She was certain that this was created by Choi Han.

However, the aura flowing out of him made her think of something.

Dragon.

This was extremely unsightly and minuscule compared to a Dragon’s aura, but… There were definitely some similarities.

They were both auras that released their presence.

“Unbelievable!”

Her relaxed face scowled to make her look like a devil.

She extended her hand toward Choi Han who had crossed the tsunami and was quickly approaching her.

Blue blood was still dripping down her arm.

The Blood Demon had been burdened with the grudges and karma of tens of thousands of people as she took their life forces into her body.

Her blood had turned from red to blue.

It resembled the tears of hundreds of thousands of souls.

Chhhhhhhhhhhh-

Choi Han cut through the tsunami and appeared.

He then approached the Blood Demon.

Chilling blue aura fluctuated on her arms. They then took the form of a sword.

The Blood Demon was crying blue tears but she didn’t care.

Boom. Boom.

Her heart, her whole body felt as if it was thumping wildly.

Hundreds of thousands of life forces.

It was not easy to carry all of that inside a single person’s body.

However, it was something she needed to do.

It was the only way for her to defeat a Dragon.

She looked at Choi Han and shouted.

“How is it that you are able to imitate that of a Dragon?!”

The first time she went to Aipotu and lowered her head in front of a Dragon…

The Blood Demon had to kneel despite being a fellow leader of a Hunter household.

It was not out of her own will.

Dragon Fear.

She could not defeat the aura that Aipotu’s Dragon Lord was releasing, forcing her to face such indignity as she bowed her head.

The Blood Demon had contemplated for a very long time as to how she could overcome that humiliation.

She had trained and trained some more.

She continued to persevere with the hope that getting stronger would allow her to overcome a Dragon’s aura.

However, she had to face the humiliation of bowing her head to the Dragon Lord multiple times after that.

That was when the Blood Demon realized it.

“Ah, humans can never defeat Dragons.’

Unfortunately, she was human.

In that case, what could she do?

She saw the jiangshis being created and figured it out.

If one person was not enough, couldn’t she defeat a Dragon with hundreds of people?

That thought led her to absorb the life forces of all those people.
