Jin Hyuk stared in horror at the perfectly unharmed Gang Ryeong.
His composure crumbled, and his entire body began to turn translucent.
Sensing this, Gang Ryeong focused his Will, and a colossal ghoul materialized behind him.
But he held back, an immediate strike would do little good.
A first‑stage martial artist was no joke; the only reason he had killed this man before was because the opponent had let down his guard and harbored no intent to kill.
Against any other martial artist of the same level, they could have slain him before he even had the chance to summon death energy.
Now, even in this state of consciousness, Gang Ryeong wasn't confident that he could even hurt this guy, so his only chance to come close to beating him is null.
There is no chance of him beating Jin Hyuk.
But…
Gang Ryeong used his Will; in his ethereal form of the ghoul, it looked strikingly similar, just a bigger version of him.
