My Abandoned Disciples Came to Me

78. I will kill you. Now that we have a justification

“Forbidden magic in the country… The Sanctuary of Sacrifices… have you heard of it?”

At Lim Do-chun’s words, Choi Joo-won wrinkled his expression and spoke.

“The Sanctuary of Sacrifice?”

Joo-Won Choi knows about the magic of the Temple of Sacrifice.

‘A technology that can absorb a person’s life force by sacrificing it…’

The sacrificial temple is to gain vitality and youth at the cost of someone else’s life. In addition to the effect of increasing magical power, it is magic that prevents physical aging, literally going against the providence.

The Temple of Sacrifices is handed down only by inheritance within the [Feln] Clan. That’s why there weren’t many people who could use magic in the past, but that didn’t mean it was a light problem.

Let’s imagine that the person who possesses the skill of the Temple of Sacrifice is the head of the country. Then how many people can he sacrifice to gain power by using his power? Dozens? Hundreds? No. Tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands or even millions. It is possible to sacrifice a person to covet the power close to a god.

In the past, countries feared such a skill as the Holy Temple, and so officially banned its use. And he didn’t stop at simply banning the use of [Sacrificial Temple], But he slaughtered all the clans that could use the magic. Because I was afraid. It means that their power is usurped by them.

‘Why is the story of the Temple of Sacrifice being brought up?’

Joo-won Choi knows most of the magic in this world. That’s why he knew what the [Sacrificial Temple] Magic was and how it originated, but that was all he knew. The Sanctuary of Sacrifice is just a legendary magic that is considered a relic of the past. That’s why I had my doubts. I wondered why Lim Do-chun knew about the golden art of sacrificial sanctuary, and why he brought it out now.

“I know about the Temple of Sacrifice. What did that mean?”

When Joo-Won Choi spoke, Do-Chun Lim let out a sigh of relief.

“It would be easier if you knew. It may be hard to believe, but our guild leader. So, the original journey can use the Temple of Sacrifices.”

-Sueuk

Choi Joo-won lifted Lim Do-chun’s neck. And he spoke in a cold voice.

“Col-Lok…Call…Lock… Why… Why are you like this…”

Do-chun Lim, who was choked up, rebelled here and there, but it was naturally impossible to escape from Joo-won Choi’s hands.

Joo-Won Choi asked a question.

“Are you looking at me as an idiot? The Fellen clan, which could use the Temple of Sacrifice, had already been exterminated before. And let’s assume that the original journey can use the Temple of Sacrifice, then the Darfeld guild should be bigger than Baal. How could he be part of one of the high-ranking guilds with such fraudulent magic? It should have already become a top-notch guild in the past. Even without considering all of these things, why did the original journey tell the likes of you about the temple of sacrifice?”

Choi Joo-won’s question was reasonable. It is also true that he subdued the clan that could use the sacrificial temple on a national level. And it is also true that Dafeld, the original journeyman’s guild, is weaker than Choi Seung-hyun’s guild, Baal. If he had actively used the sacrificial temple, he should have already surpassed Choi Seung-hyun’s level.

“Don’t… Calm down… Let me explain.”

– Plop

Choi Joo-won untied Lim Do-choon’s neck. The guy suffered for a long time on the ground and then talked in a low position with his back bent.

“It is true that the nation has subdued the Felln clan, who can use the Temple of Sacrifice. However, for some reason there were only a handful of people alive. One of the people who has succeeded in that generation is Won Yeo-jeong. Wonjyojeong not only extended their life force by sacrificing people, but also used it to increase magical power or prevent physical aging. He used it for his own greed.”

Im Do-choon looked at Joo-won Choi. When Choi Joo-won frowned at her as if to continue talking, he was startled and continued to speak with her.

“However, the number of sacrifices available for the original journey was not large. This is because the sanctuary of sacrifice has the disadvantage of having to sacrifice a living person. In fact, to be honest, people can supply and demand anything. But don’t you know that there are many people who will notice Won Yeo-jeong? Even within our guild, there are quite a few people who know that the original journey possesses the [Sacrificial Temple] Magic. There are a lot of eyes watching.”

Lim Dochun swallowed dry saliva and spoke.

“Above all, the biggest problem is Baek Ju-seok. He is always monitoring the movements of the Won Journey. If he were to use the Temple of Sacrifice to gain enough power to eat Tin Baek, Zhu would have tried to kill Yuan Yuen with all the power he had. They both hate and loathe each other.”

Joo-Won Choi asked a question.

“So Won Yeo-jeong had many places to look out for, so he couldn’t actively use the Temple of Sacrifices.

“Exactly. In fact, it is accurate to say that it is because of Baek Joo-seok. Don’t you know how many different people he is involved with?”

I know. Joo-Won Choi knows for sure. The black money that Baek Ju-seok sprinkled is connected to so many people, and how mean and vicious that bastard is. If the Won Journey had used the temple of sacrifice at random, Baek Ju-seok would have killed the Won Journey no matter what. Because you don’t know when the blade of the original journey will pierce your throat.

Choi Joo-won finished his thoughts and spoke.

“So, I know that the original traveler used the sacrificial temple. So what about the evidence? Is there any evidence that she could use such magic, and did she actually use it?”

-Parr

Lim Dochun handed over a video-recording magic artifact with his arms shaking.

“I… I have a high-ranking mission in charge of guards in a secret lair. But usually, people are also stepping up. To the extent that it is not excessive, the original journey has continued to use the Temple of Sacrifice, and it always requires a living person to do so. When I brought more than a certain number of living people, Won Yeo-jeong always used the Temple of Sacrifice. Not often, though.”

-Dalkak

When Lim Do-chun pressed the magic artifact in Choi Joo-won’s hand, a video was played.

There was a picture of Won Yeo-jeong standing there from a distance. A large magic circle, inside which several people were tied up and passed out.

One journey bit her own hand to make her blood come out, and she spilled it into a magic circle drawn on the ground. And soon after, the people turned to ashes and disappeared, and the energy in their bodies flowed into the original journey.

“F*ck… I thought this was real.”

Joo-Won Choi recognized the seriousness after watching the video. Probably because he didn’t think he could really use the Temple of Sacrifice. At best, he thought it would be a similar, similar level of magic, but it was actually Felln’s forbidden technique that was thought to have been annihilated in the past. She never thought that [She would be able to use the Temple of Immolation].

“Why the hell did you film this video? Wouldn’t it be more harm than good if you got caught?”

Dochun Lim spoke quietly.

“I… I am the person in charge of the secret hideout and sourcing and receiving people. So, of course, I have no choice but to know the secret about Won Yeo-jeong. But, you know, isn’t it always awful in the words of someone in a role like mine? It was obvious that they would try to kill me when my role was done, for keeping secrets from being revealed. I took a picture and recorded it in preparation for that time. I need to grasp even one weakness to extend my lifeline. Not only the video, but also the person who filmed the video, that is, me as a witness. Using both of these will definitely be of great help.”

The video recorded by Lim Do-chun actually extended his lifeline. If you use all the video evidence and witnesses, no one will have to believe the truth.

Choi Joo-won smiled and talked.

“Don’t keep the word that it will save you. You will have to spend the rest of your life in prison, but you will be able to live.”

“Mo… If I can save my life, that’s enough… Ga…Thank you.”

-Koo-wook

Choi Joo-won held Lim Do-chun’s head while talking.

“From now on, speak and act as I tell you. Okay?”

“As long as you spare me, I will follow your word unconditionally.”

Choi Joo-won looked around and tied Seo Ho-hyeok, who was fainting, on his back.

-Jerbuck

-Jerbuck

After that, I walked slowly and walked out confidently toward the front door of the abandoned building, the secret hideout of the Dafeld Guild. And he asked Lim Do-chun.

“Is there anyone else inside?”

“P… A few essential personnel may remain. They are educated people who do not move from their positions no matter what problems arise…”

“Are there any ordinary people?”

“No… All of them are our Dafeld Guild members.”

“So, you’re saying that only scumbags like you remain?”

“….”

“Don’t you answer me?”

“That’s right…”

Choi Joo-won condensed the magic in his hand and memorized his spell.

[Meteor]

-Shhhhh-!

The meteorites began to fly at great speed, and before long they were rammed into the building.

-Quaaang-!

With a tremendous sound, the entire building was blown away.

Lim Dochun fell to the ground trembling as if he were going to pee his pants. He asked Choi Joo-won a question as he looked at the disappearing building with empty eyes.

“Even… What the hell… Everything… Who are you?…”

“Do you know what to do?”

Choi Joo-won talked to Lim Do-chun with an expression that said nothing was wrong.

“Do you know where the original journey is? Tell me.”

“Ho… If you ask me what you’re doing…”

“For what?”

Choi Joo-won looked at Lim Do-chun and replied.

“I will kill you. Now that I have a justification.”
