Chapter 245
1.
Small Infiltration and Full Army Assault.
Faced with these two choices, Ha Eung Eung recalled the events of the past.
The Demon King’s Army, which marched toward the Emperor’s Palace shouting "Demon World Conquest," and the famous Heavenly Demon Pa Cheon-Lin.
The Heavenly Demon possessed greater strength than herself.
The rumors about the Heavenly Demon’s unique martial arts techniques were beyond imagination.
But the most remarkable thing wasn’t the Heavenly Demon’s supreme martial skills, but rather the caution with which Pa Cheon-Lin carried herself, despite her great power.
‘Even with such strength, it was her prudence, the ability not to be swayed by power, that stood out.’
Pa Cheon-Lin, who was responsible for the lives of millions of followers, made no rash moves and formulated strategies, carrying them out meticulously.
Though her dreams were crushed by her subordinates’ corruption and lost opportunities, if she had risked her followers’ lives, uniting the Central Plains wouldn’t have been impossible.
Just one step away from conquering the Demon World, the Heavenly Demon eventually withdrew her forces.
‘You couldn’t do that, could you? You, who were called the Heavenly Demon, couldn’t lose your followers. Without them, you wouldn’t have been the Heavenly Demon anymore.’
Then what about her?
What did the name "Silent Swordsman" carry with it?
“Just give the order. I will follow any decision from my lord.”
“I trust my human lord too!”
“Humans are strong, so we can trust them!”
“Anyway, I have to collect the demon stones, so I’ll take them with me. Let’s leave quickly.”
“Master, you’re truly blessed with people.”
“What are you waiting for? Move ahead, human.”
The Red General, Tou Da, the wandering merchant, the worker, Yachen Minglang, and the Boogeyman.
Their faces held no fear.
‘I see now. The name "Silent Swordsman" carries the responsibility of their lives.’
Just as the Heavenly Demon was responsible for the lives of their followers, the Silent Swordsman bears the same responsibility for those who follow them.
Even if they faced different enemies in another world, the essence of both was the same.
Help those who follow.
Carry those who trust you.
【▶3. While the main army buys time outside the city, raid the airstrip.】
Even if not everyone can stay until the end, it does not mean their existence is worthless.
Not wanting to allow a pointless death, she opens a path for survival.
“If this is my lord’s will, I will gladly follow.”
“All will be according to my lady’s will.”
“It’s a feint. I owe a debt to the Great Demon... A very large debt.”
The Boogeyman, turning his back to the wind, exuded an ominous aura.
The Red General flung his cloak in the wind.
Yachen Minglang, with a smile on his face, drew his throwing knives.
The resolve of the warriors was higher than ever before.
【Infiltration Team Selection】

Normally, players would choose to take as many companions as possible, but Ha Eung Eung was different.
[▶Choosing Boogeyman for the infiltration team.]
[▶Infiltration team selection complete.]
Only one companion.
It was a decision looking beyond “this” moment.
‘If Boogeyman and I can’t handle it, then the others would be left with no chance at survival.’
If no one survives after the final battle, it would only be a repetition of the time she lost the Man-Eater.
Surviving alone and wandering in an unfamiliar world was a solitude she never wanted to repeat.
She didn’t want that kind of future.
Lol.This is like Zhao Yun of Changshan in the Three Kingdoms.Maybe other top-tier streamers could do it?Was there another top-tier streamer who did Half-Demon before?Helmon?Hellmonster left halfway, saying he couldn’t beat this game.Didn’t Black try it?Black started Epic Fantasy instead.I miss Black...What’s Black up to these days?He disappeared after claiming he was working on some quests, then we lost contact.Is this some kind of mole game?The demons die instantly when they appear.The reaction speed is insane.The Festival of Blood.The Silent Swordsman didn’t bring an army because they’re a ‘one-person army,’ huh?But the Boogeyman is with them?Demons don’t count as people.“One-person army,” lol.Stop demonizing the Half-Demons.
The Silent Swordsman rejected that very thought from the beginning.
She hid in the shadows, rushing through the darkness.
She targeted blind spots and gaps.
Unyielding carnage, defying the basic principles of stealth and assassination.
Charging forward under the lamplight, not fearing detection, she crushed everything in her path.
But no one in the city noticed her murderous actions.
The moment they see her, death is inevitable.
She charges through the alleyways in a single breath.
The demons out to enjoy the festival, the stalls along the street, the bodies and obstacles—all are swept away.
No one, nothing, can slow her down by even a single step.
“What’s going on? Why is she turning her ambush into an outright massacre?”
The path taken by a single human and a single demon.
Demons who scream after realizing what happened are already too late.
The massacre that began in one alley ends in the next, continuing as she clears one area after another.
[633 kills]
[251 kills]
Hundreds of demons collapse in a line.
Beyond them, in the next area, she meets with thousands more demons.
A howl from the massacre blade.
Terrified demons turn and flee.
Corpses fill the streets.
All this happens in just one minute.
It was truly a one-sided slaughter.
[2814 kills]
[577 kills]
Ambush and massacre. Killing every witness, the killing spree accelerates, clearing three entire districts before the guards even know what’s happening.
“This is insane. This is as fast as my time attack records.”
Running straight toward the center of the great city, cutting across the shortest route.
The raw speed and various blessings from her bloodlines are overshadowed by her overwhelming breakthrough power, even if she runs slower.
While Speedmaster wastes time taking detours, the Silent Swordsman breaks straight through, saving time.
[Time attack world record by segment]
[1st - Speedmaster - 02:30]
[Time attack world new record!]
[1st - Silent Swordsman - 02:28 (new!)]
[Time attack world record by segment]
[1st - Speedmaster - 01:11]
[Personal best time attack new record!]
[2nd - Silent Swordsman - 01:19 (new!)]
Endless notifications bombarding the chat, breaking conventional understanding with a forceful breakthrough.
The frozen chat begins to overrun, with messages flooding in without stopping.
“This has gone beyond just passing the field.”
At this point, it’s not about whether she can pass the field—it’s about whether she can surpass Speedmaster’s time attack record.
“No way, I can’t lose to anyone on speed.”
As the course ahead winds through the slums, Speedmaster’s record of 2 minutes 11 seconds remains.
It’s a route that anyone new would inevitably struggle with, and the Silent Swordsman’s record begins to lag.
“Speed, I’m faster.”
As if to answer that confidence, the Silent Swordsman, running at full speed, swings the huge sword she’s been carrying over her shoulder ahead.
The red trajectory of the massacre blade slices through everything in its path.
As she slashes and destroys, the massacre legacy only strengthens, shattering every building in the path.
The impact of the giant’s foot crushes the buildings and demons beneath.
There’s no need to count how many demons were killed.
[All demons in the area are annihilated.]
[Noise level: maximum]
[Alert level: extremely dangerous]
One blow, and they’re all dead.
