Unbreakable-Chapter 177 - People talk too much

It was Feiyen who spoke the keyword.

“Recharge.”

<<Satisfied the Condition to Activate Nature>>

-Master’s Silence

Her body began to glow with a faint silver light. It was her second Nature. It allowed her to gather power as long as she stayed still. It wasn’t for free, however, as she was required to use her own energy. That’s why she couldn’t endlessly gather power. Moreover, the power that was unleashed was weaker than the total amount of energy that she used.

It seemed pointless to use, but this allowed one to unleash the power in one short moment, exceeding ones’ physical limits. A finishing blow that had no beyond.

<<Recharging.>>

Feiyen waited.

<<Recharging.>>

Unless Dohyuk attacked first, she would recharge as long as she could before attacking. This was her first time using it since most fights were over before she needed to use her second Nature. And even if she needed to use it, she’d only use it to finish the fight fast.

She was serious this time. She knew this was not needed and she knew that Yoo Dohyuk would not harm her even if she lost. However, this was out of her control. Her urge to fight was driving her now and it was the same for Dohyuk.

<<Recharging complete>>

She never saw this window even after having her second Nature for a year. She began moving. A numerous amount of lines began filling the air at that instant, and it was soundless. The sound was simply too slow to catch up to the speed of the sword movements.

Dohyuk was not slow. The moment Feiyen moved, Dohyuk was standing with his one leg. It was as if he was trying to kick a ball in the air.

It was the new skill of Flying Master’s Kicks that Dohyuk created. His feet that were on the ground didn’t move. Instead, it began to create cracks around as if it were pushing down, hard. When the Dohyuk threw extended his foot out horizontally toward the back, the twisting commenced and the storm raged. It was a net of swords against a storm wall. The two powers struck against each other and everyone who had been watching from within the wall, even Dohyuk and Feiyen themselves, weren’t sure about what happened.

Legs shook. After a long breath, Feiyen was able to bring her knee up from the ground. She looked around. It wasn’t easy to describe what changed as the land was destroyed even before they began to fight.

But…

-The w-wall! It’s destroyed!

She heard people shouting from the distance and saw the part of the outer wall had been destroyed. Fortunately, no one was injured or killed, but the wall was definitely destroyed by the shock.

“…”

She moved. She had no energy to move even a step, but she had no wounds. The rocks and dust made her dirty, but that was it. She then stopped and sighed.

“Congratulations.”

Dohyuk was alive. But he wasn’t well either. He seemed to have gotten away from injuring his vital areas, but he was in no state to move with his arms and legs which had all been cut open.

“It’s your victory. I’ll keep my promise and…”

“It was your wrist,” she said. Dohyuk was surprised.

“It was the wrist,” she repeated. The fight between the net and storm. The result was actually a ‘tie’, but what resulted in their current state was the width of their attacks. The storm wall didn’t fully cover the net and allowed Dohyuk to be attacked. This was because Dohyuk already had one of his limbs sliced off. That resulted in an imbalance in his skill and kept him from using his best attack.

“This is not a fair fight.”

“Why? It was you who cut my wrists. We both started fairly.”

“You could’ve avoided it!” Feiyen shouted angrily. “If you took a few steps to the side and directly attacked me instead of attacking horizontally, I would’ve been in worse shape. Do you think I’m a fool?!”

“That’s my question. Do you think I wouldn’t know that?”

Feiyen became dumbfounded but Dohyuk continued, “Then it really would’ve been close. I’m not sure who ‘might have died’ from it.”

“…!”

“We agreed that this wasn’t for real. This was a duel.”

“Y-yes but what good did it do for you then…”

“Oh, I got what I wanted,” Dohyuk spoke confidently.

“You don’t glare at me like I’m your sworn enemy anymore. I’m not sure why you did that before, but now you don’t. So I’m not curious why you did it anymore.”

Her expression changed? She couldn’t say anything about something she herself didn’t even realize.

“Isn’t it great?” Dohyuk asked. “It’s the same type of fight — but one results in someone dying, and the other results in an agreement, which is really different. I know this well.”

And to the people who were not corrupt, the former type of fight was the reason for their stress. It didn’t have anything to do with their strength. Dohyuk always killed only to survive. He used the ‘sleeping bag’ to overcome the stress in the early stages, but he found another way to resolve it now.

After finding Blass and preparing a place to train, he began to solve it in the latter part of what he said to Feiyen. Fighting to his last breath, but not killing anyone.

“I was saved by the method more than I thought I would be… but there’s not much I can fight these days. We are a rare breed.”

They were different from the most strong ones. They did not remember the past life. That’s why Dohyuk knew how Feiyen felt.

“People talk too much.”

There was the stress she had.

“They try to kill me, but they always want to talk sh*t about me. What I was before… and how they are so great because they are getting me into trouble… and all the bullsh*ts who don’t know me.”

That’s why he accepted Feiyen’s challenge. He didn’t care about winning at all. He just wanted to help his ‘friend’ who was facing the same problem. That’s why he did his best so Feiyen could unleash her best.

“I’m not sure how you feel, but you do look relieved.”

Dohyuk had completed his purpose. He moved his right hand to touch the necklace on his neck.

“Digest.”

With a bright light, he was recovered, not fully, but it was enough for him to stand and walk.

“Whatever your plan was, let’s go and eat first.”

“…”

“It’s free.”

Dohyuk promised to provide Feiyen with her supplies. She tried to speak, but Dohyuk and Feiyen both heard it clearly.

Her stomach was growling, signaling of her hunger.
