“Uburka. I realized something while watching the way you used your mana.”

-You mean the Shibal Aura Training Method?

“I can’t help but mourn your horrendous naming ability… Anyways, right. I saw a profound possibility after looking at the Shibal Aura Training Method.”

I spoke as I say atop Uburka’s head.

“It’s the Formation Method.”

-Formation Method?

Uburka tilted his head.

-What’s that, Daddy?

Formation Method(陳法).

Before meeting Master, I knew hardly anything about martial arts, but I’d learned a lot about the common sense of Murim from Bae Hu-ryeong.

The Formation Method was literally a method(法) of attaining a formation(陳).(1)

“Martial arts is basically the method of learning to utilize one’s body. On the other hand, you could think of the Formation Method as the method to spread it among several people.”

-Ugor, do you mean like battle formations?

“Similar. But it’s not the same as simple hand to hand combat.”

I told him.

“Let’s say people from different factions fought on the same side. They might be attacking together or carrying out joint attacks, but it couldn’t really be called the Formation Method. It’s the same principle. Only when they use their aura in the same way could it be called the Formation Method.”

-Does Daddy want to teach me the Formation Method?

“Right. To be precise, I want to teach you the Infernal Heavens Demonic Art first and then develop it into a Formation Method with you. I’ve never used a Formation Method before so I’m not sure if it’ll work, but so what?! I’m still interested to try.”

-I don’t quite understand. Is there a reason to learn it?

“Hey, hey. Baby. If you look for a reason or value before doing everything, then you will never do anything!”

I tapped the top of Uburka’s head.

“For now, we’ll just test it. Then if it doesn’t work, we can just give up. But if it does work then we’ll delve deeper. Alright?”

-So it’s just relaxed.

“Mhm. Relaxed.”

I smiled.

“But, baby. I have a question for you.”

-What is it?

“Have you ever starved for more than a week?”

Uburka blinked.

-Huh?

After that, I slowly taught him the ‘relaxed’ Infernal Heavens Demonic Art.

“The Infernal Heavens Demonic Art is divided into nine forms. The first form is the Asa Sword of Starvation. In other words, it is a sword that was created from the longing and desperation of hunger. This is why you are starving now. Aya, this dream world is really useful. Time passes, but you won’t die no matter how much you starve!”

-Kill me!

Uburka, who had already been starving in his dream for a week in his dream, cried out. His legs and arms were bound by chains. And I was sitting in front of him, eating delicious fruits and fish.

This was the result after I defeated him in a fair duel.

-I’d prefer you killed me!

“Is it painful?”

-It’s painful!

“Does it hurt?”

-It hurts! It feels like all of my muscles are screaming!

“That’s it! My baby. I want you to input that pain, that hurt into your sword. I’ve also been forced to starve for a week. But even if you’re starving, you can’t starve without thinking. Think of a farmer starving to death in the middle of nowhere because of a bad harvest, think of the farmer’s child. You have to starve while thinking about that.”

-Daddy you’re crazy!

I taught him.

“This dream world really is nice. If I think of a snowfield, a snowfield appears, and if I think about an epidemic, an epidemic spreads. It’s the perfect environment to learn the Infernal Heavens Demonic Art. There was nothing like this in my time, phew.”

-Cold… Daddy, I’m so cold….

“This is what it means to freeze to death! Imagine someone who doesn’t even have a blanket, and has to use fallen leaves to cover themself.”

-I’ll freeze before I can imagine it….

“That’s fine, that’s fine. You won’t die. My baby is the strongest goblin that ever lived. This is easy, isn’t it?”

-It’s been a long time since I’ve said this word in this context, but… Shibaaal….

I taught him.

“Is it difficult to learn? Is the burning too painful? I understand. I’ll experience this one with you. Even if it hurts, it’ll be fine as long as we feel the pain together. Are you not okay? Does it still hurt? That’s natural. It’s supposed to hurt. But baby, I can’t hear you at all. Even if your vocal cords are burnt, you can use your aura to speak. Look at dad. I’m not moving my lips, I’m using my aura to talk freely. Now. Try it.”

-Th-… is… is… hell….

“Aigoo. As expected of my baby boy. Such a fast learner! It can be said that Infernal Heavens Demonic Art makes the users experience the various hells one after the other.”

-This… horrible martial art… did Daddy learn it as well…?

“That’s right.”

I smiled brightly.

“I also had to learn it.”

I taught him.

[Purchased ‘Dream Appearance’.]

[100 points have been deducted!]

[You currently have 8800 race points.]

Ten days.

While the other hunters were busy spending their time caring for their races, I poured all of my time into Uburka. And if one were to count the time spent in each dream, it would be much longer than 10 days.

“Mm.”

I scratched my cheek.

“Well, it’s not bad. Not bad. I’m a bit disappointed, but I’ll have to be satisfied with this.”

-That’s it?

Uburka grit his teeth.

-I endured living hell for ten days!

“No. Mm. That’s true… I also realized it while teaching you. You have a great talent for the Infernal Heavens Demonic Art. But it’s not something that’s easy to understand even with overflowing talent….”

-That’s natural! Only a psychopath would be able to fully grasp the Starving Death, Dehydration Death, Drowning Death, Freezing Death, Poison Death, Sickness Death, Blunt Force Death, and Burning Death! A person can only die once, and when they die, it’s all over! If this wasn’t a dream, I wouldn’t dare to learn this!

“Well….”

The Demonic Cult has always been a bit of a hard place.

-It’s strange that Daddy is even able to perform such a horrific art in the first place! I don’t know how you can do it! No, the amazing thing is that you’re still sane!

I smiled.

“Thanks for the compliment. Now. I will be saying goodbye to this era after today. So before that, we need to create a draft version of the Formation Method.”

-…….

“Even if you haven’t fully comprehended the Infernal Heavens Demonic Art, you have at least reached the level of rising demon. Uburka. You and I are now seeds that sprout in the same direction. We can now share our dreams, or even fulfill each other’s dreams.”

I jumped off of Uburka’s head.

“Sit down.”

-Ugo.

“Unlike martial arts, formation methods aren’t organized. They’re all over the place. Most sects use the basic level of formation method in teams.”

I sat down in front of Uburka and grabbed a few stones. Using my aura, I rolled the stones around on my palm.

“Think of each stone as a martial artist.”

-Understood.

“Five out of six of them are moving in a certain rhythm. Almost like music. Those who are fighting them will get used to the rhythm of the five people. And the moment they get used to this rhythm, the last one rushes in with a completely different rhythm.”

Swish!

One of the stones suddenly leaped forward, striking Uburka’s chest before he even had a chance to respond.

The latest_episodes are on_the lightnov‍elworld.c‎om website.

-…….

There was no damage to speak of. Nevertheless, Uburka stared at me with a blank expression as though he was unable to fully comprehend what had just happened.

“This is the basic level of formation method. People have intelligence. Intelligence is the ability to understand rules. Rhythm is also a rule. The key to formation methods is to use people’s cognition as an opening .”

-…is it really that amazing?

“It is amazing. But that’s on the basic level of formation method.”

I smiled.

It was worth it to learn this and that from Bae Hu-ryeong whenever I had time after learning the teachings of the Demonic Cult.

“The next level of formation method is magic.”

I sent aura to the palm of my hand.

“What do you see?”

-It looks like fire.

“That’s right. Even though it’s not fire, it looks like it. This is because I copied the appearance of fire with my aura. Uburka. You’re not actually a giant, but you can make yourself become one with your aura.”

I focus my aura on the six stones.

The stones were set on fire.

“What if six people made their aura like fire? Imagine being surrounded by those six people. You’d probably feel like you were in a furnace, right?”

-Ugor.

“This is also the path we will go along when we plan together from now on.”

Tak.

I caught the stones in the air.

“The only ones who have mastered the Infernal Heavens Demonic Art so far are just me and you. But what if there were three? What if it increased to six? Imagine what would happen if we increase the number to twelve, or twenty-four.”

-…….

“Imagine what would happen if 100, 300, or even 600 people were to all learn the Infernal Heavens Demonic Art and they all performed it at once.”

Uburka’s eyes slowly widened.

The corners of my mouth raised like a cunning villain.

“On my own, I might only be able to create a furnace five steps wide. However, if we worked together, we might be able to burn ten or even fifteen steps away. And hundreds gathered together….”

-They could burn the entire battlefield.

Uburka opened his mouth.

His eyes were dazed as though he wasn’t looking at me at that moment.

He was probably imagining the scene I’d just described.

-The souls of hundreds of warriors burning at the same time with the same image and technique. The battlefield would definitely turn into hell in an instant.

That’s right.

Not a personal skill, but a group skill.

That was the way I envisioned the new Infernal Heavens Demonic Art to be.

-Daddy called it magic, but I think differently. When fantasy imposes itself on the world, it becomes real.

“What do you think? Is it worth doing?”

-I want to try.

“Okay. Then let’s try it step by step.”

I smiled.

“In order for this to succeed, we’ll have to have the same image in our hearts. After all, if a choir wants to sing the same song, they’ll have to memorize the lyrics. Uburka. You will have to share not only the Infernal Heavens Demonic Art, but also the scenery we create to the others.”

-What scenery are you talking about?

“I’ll show it to you now.”

I drew a mansion on the ground.

“I encountered the children’s dolls in a remote mansion—.”

And talked.

The source of this_chapter; lightnov‌elworld.c­om

About everything I’d experienced so far.

The scenery I’d seen.

The 1st scene.

Little dolls in a burning mansion.

The 2nd scene.

Petra who lived at the edge of a village.

The 3rd scene.

A peony blooming in the middle of winter.

The 4th scene.

The moon whose heart was stolen by a mirror.

The 5th scene.

Teardrops falling onto a rooftop.

Sometimes I drew pictures on the ground. Sometimes I drew them with my aura. I talked about the stories I’d experienced with my body, and the scenes I’d seen with my eyes.

These were just stories. Since they didn’t yet have a form, they couldn’t be called the formation method.

But these were scenes that would someday become the foundation of the formation method.

“These are the scenes I have. Five. There might be more in the future, and it’ll probably increase. But for now, there are five.”

-I see.

Uburka murmured.

-Daddy… you’ve experienced a lot. You’ve proudly lived a more intense life than anyone else. I’m certain now that Daddy is even more diligent than I am. The density of your time is incredible….

“That’s because I travel around a lot.”

-Will I also be able to travel to places like Daddy has?

“Well.”

I got up.

“Perhaps. Because you have already merged your mind and body. Maybe you’ll reach the stage of rejuvenating your body. I’m about to leave this era, but it’s possible that you will survive until the next era…”

-I’m going to live for a very long time.

Uburka let out a laugh.

-I will spread the story of Daddy to our race. I will make our meetings into a play and have it performed on stage. I will share it to the younger generations. I will make the five stories into five fire paintings and personally showcase them during the full moon. I swear. Just as Daddy has taken care of our race, we will not forget you.

I stretched out my arm.

Uburka bent over and held out his arm as well.

My tiny human hand was grabbed the hobgoblin’s giant hand and we shook them.

“Uburka.”

-Mm.

“You’re an amazing child. Continue to spread your Shibal to the entire world.”

Uburka grinned widely, showing off his fangs.

-Of course. Daddy.

Then.

‘I declare stage clear.’

[Stage clear.]

[You have cleared the 33rd floor.]

[Your compensation will be settled after entering the 34th floor.]

[Chain layers in progress—you will be sent directly to the 34th floor!]

A white light enveloped me. (TL: I hope the little gobbies can survive that hellish training.)

(Note. 1.Formation in this case refers to troop formations.)
