[ (side story) Ah ah…! ]
Sleet was falling outside the window.
“Kkeuk….”
The king looked out the window and smiled vainly.
Laughter echoes hollowly in the hospital room.
Because the window was wide open, white steam came out of my mouth.
-It just so happened that I decided to go out as a substitute instead of the elderly man.
Looking down at the smartphone in his hand, Dowang recalled the conversation he had just had with Daein.
“…okay. That’s right…”
There was a gloomy atmosphere in the hospital room.
Just moments ago, the nurses came and tried to tell him that it would be a good idea to close the window, but when they saw the blue naturalization shining in the King’s eyes, they became upset and went away.
“You brought in Pacheon Geomje on my behalf… keke. “Those old people really used their brains.”
King Dowang called his sworn brothers who abandoned him and went to the meeting ‘old men.’
That means I no longer consider them brothers.
“But it would be the perfect handshake…”
A conspiracy was growing in the Dao King’s mind.
There was a perception in the world that Taowang was incompetent because of his physique and outrageous martial arts skills.
However, if you have a bad mind, you can never become a tax-saving expert.
However, since my body has become so strong, I don’t have much use for my head, so I haven’t used it until now.
“I will definitely make you pay a painful price…!”
The King of Dao laughed as he thought of a plan to plunge the old men into the deepest despair.
He slowly reviewed the plan he had come up with in his head.
‘It is impossible to prevent the member from going to the meeting place by force. Moreover, the Pacheongeomje system has been added…’
Aren’t they the ones who will cut off and pass by even if the national army blocks their way?
Therefore, it is absurd to use force to prevent people from going to the meeting location.
But force is not the only way to disrupt a meeting.
The King narrowed his eyes and continued thinking.
‘Pacheon Geomje. That guy is going to the meeting instead of me…’
Ever since the phone call with Daein earlier, a picture of using Daein to ruin this meeting was forming in Dowang’s mind.
In fact, although it was not as good as the three old men, it did not look good in the eyes of the Dao King.
‘A guy who’s so popular wants to go to a meeting? ‘He looks like he’s going to be punished!’
Isn’t it because of guys like him that a man like himself, who lacks nothing, is still single?
“Try a taste too, you bastard.”
After making his decision, Dowang picked up the phone and called someone.
After a few rings, a young woman on the other side answered the phone.
-hello? Are you an old man?
“Hyuna. How have you been?”
The person who answered the phone was Namgung-hyeon, the master of the Geomhwangmun.
After exchanging greetings with Namgunghyeon for a while, King Do naturally got to the point.
“By the way. “Did you hear about the Pacheon Geomje?”
-…Any news about your big brother? What’s going on?
It’s as expected.
As soon as that name came out, I felt Namgoonghyeon’s voice change.
The King of Tao suppressed the laughter that threatened to escape and continued speaking naturally.
“Didn’t you know? “I heard you’re going to a meeting with your brothers today.”
-Mi…what are you saying?
Namgoonghyeon’s voice became sharp. The king spoke in a very embarrassed voice.
“this. Looks like I said something for no reason. Of course I thought you knew too…”
-Elder. Please tell me more about that.
“Huh. What should I do with this? If someone finds out, I might be a snitch…”
– That’s absolutely not the case, so please tell me. You don’t want to see me die, do you?
“Wow. Since I have a relationship with Namgoong, I can’t not tell you… but you’ll keep the fact that you heard this from me a secret, right?
-Sure. So where is the meeting place? Is it Earth?
“It’s not the Earth, it’s the Nostalgia Continent…”
After receiving all the information he needed from the King, Namgoonghyeon said, “Wait a minute,” and then took the cell phone away from his ear and called someone.
-Biyoung! Summon the best of this text right now!
-John name!
Then, Namgung-hyeon, who picked up his cell phone again, spoke to King Do-wang in a voice full of chills.
-Thank you, old man. I’ll come by to say hello after this is over.
“I guess so. “I’m going to be busy preparing this and that, so let’s stop now.”
After hanging up the phone, Dowang was unable to control his shaking shoulders for a while.
“Kkeukkeuk…. With this, the third part of the great world has been completed.”
Of course, I had no intention of ending it like this.
The king immediately made a second call.
Soon a welcome voice came from the other end of the receiver.
-Who is this? Aren’t you my enemy?
“haha! It has been heightened so far. Sir Leonard. How are you?
The person who answered the phone was Sir Leonard, the leader of the Knights of the Kingdom of Hicks and the oldest swordmaster.
After the war with the demon world ended, the Murim Master and Sir Leonard formed a bond of sympathy and quickly became close friends because they were the same old man – although the Murim Master was much older.
Afterwards, they met often and developed a friendship, so their phone calls were very natural.
After taking a long pause, the King of Dao brought up the topic lightly, as if speaking in a whisper.
“But the Pacheon Sword Festival. “That child seems to be quite lonely these days.”
-…You mean the landlord? Is something wrong?
Sir Leonard always added a ball to the name of the great man.
This was because Daein was his benefactor who saved his and Queen Alina’s lives and further helped him reach the level of a sword master.
“No, it’s nothing special. That kid is going to a meeting with his older brothers…
-What is a meeting?
“…Kuhm. “Oh, that’s…”
The king was momentarily taken aback by the unexpected question, but soon succeeded in explaining it while continuing the conversation naturally.
Sir Leonard’s reaction was amazing!
-What? What a playboy! How could our Majesty meet another woman?
Regardless of whether he was a benefactor or not, it was Sir Leonard who was scandalous. I could feel him huffing on the other end of the phone.
“haha. “Please calm down.”
-How did you calm down now…! Phew. I’m sorry. It’s not something to be mad at you for. First, I must convey this news to His Majesty! A countermeasures meeting immediately….
The King spoke cautiously, suppressing laughter.
“What should I do with this? I think I made a big deal out of it by saying something for no reason…”
-What are you saying? I will not forget this favor of mine. First of all, let’s see if we can move the Kingdom Knights and Magic Troops right away… I’ll contact you later!
Leonard quickly hung up the phone. Dowang quietly looked down at his cell phone, where the call had ended.
“Kkeuk…Khahaha!!”
His mad laughter shook the hospital room.
Outside the hallway, the nurses asked, “Isn’t that old man crazy?” “I think I’m crazy.” “Shouldn’t we call someone?” I heard them whispering, but it felt so refreshing that it was no big deal.
“I guess I should end this.”
The king made a third call.
The other woman is the actual manager of the WH Group and the most powerful woman in the dimension hub.
It was Baek Young-hee.
-yes. Lord Tao. What’s going on?
This time, after briefly exchanging greetings, the King of Dao quietly spoke.
“Do you know anything? Pacheongeomje. “That guy today…”
– Are you saying he’s going to a meeting?
“…Ah, did you know?”
-I was already thinking about that because of that. How do I go about playing a game?
Surprisingly, Baek Young-hee already knew that fact.
Moreover, he also guessed why the king had called him.
-I heard that the Vice President is leaving as a substitute for the King? You must be very upset.
“Then I guess there’s no need to hide anything from you…”
-Yes. Because it seems like what you want and what I want are the same.
“Kkkkkkk… That’s right… Do you have any other plans?”
The most pleasant phone call ended like that, and Dowang looked out the window with a relieved expression.
He smiled softly and muttered, leaning back.
“You guys are screwed now. Damn old people.”
Nam Gung-hyeon, Alina Baek Young-hee.
The women with the most power and strength in the dimensional hub will go to disrupt their meeting.
Of course, what they’re aiming for is to prevent the landlord from meeting other women, but isn’t there a good chance that other people will get involved and the meeting itself will end up being a disaster?
There was just one thing that bothered me.
Organizers on that side, not this side.
“I guess I should call the Dragon Emperor too, just in case.”
When he was about to make a phone call, Dowang was a little hesitant this time.
While traveling around Gangho for over 130 years, there was nothing in the world to be afraid of, but even to him, non-human beings other than the standard were objects of fear.
“gulp.”
Still, the burning desire for revenge grew stronger, so the king pressed the call button.
-hello. who is this?
…I’m sure we exchanged phone numbers before. It appears to have been a one-sided exchange.
The King of Dao spoke, trying to keep his voice even.
“Dragon Emperor. “I am the king of Tao.”
-Who is the king?… Among the kids that Mugeuk carries around, is he the one who uses a sword?
There were many things he wanted to discuss in the evaluation, but this was the only one that was disappointing, so the king went straight to the point.
“…Dragon Emperor. “I need your help.”
-What kind of help suddenly? Did you have an accident?
Abraxas spoke with interest on the other end of the phone.
Although she was a member of the death squad that fought the Demon World War with the Murim Master, she had no significant friendship other than Cheonmugeuk.
The King of Dao spoke with difficulty.
“Do you know about today’s meeting?”
-I know. I was asked by the landlord to hire the prettiest girls myself. Why is that?
They are the prettiest kids!
The King even more desperately vowed not to allow this meeting to take place.
“I will be honest. This meeting must not happen! “Those poor bastards shouldn’t be allowed to meet pretty women and children!”
Hearing the old man’s cry, Abraxas looked at his phone with a puzzled expression.
-Did you eat something wrong?
“I will tell you everything honestly….”
The king revealed his plan. When the story ended, Abraxas was holding his stomach and laughing.
-Ahahaha! So, since you can’t go to the meeting, are you going to get the kids to play a game? This is a really grumpy old man, right?
“You don’t know. How mean and wicked they are! Anyway… can you help me?”
-Huh. It looks quite interesting, but….
As Abraxas left a strange nuance and paused, the King of Dao became anxious.
-But… It’s a bit difficult for me to give up on a meeting at all. It’s been a while since I’ve been putting on makeup and decorating myself.
‘Why you?’
That question arose, but before the king could say anything, Abraxas spoke first.
-Instead, I have a better idea than that.
“Better idea?”
At that moment, Abraxas was smiling dozens of times more cunningly than the Dao King.
-Don’t cause a dimensional war-like situation by having the kids do it for no reason. How about changing the meeting members altogether?
“Ahhhh…!”
Daowang felt his whole body shaking uncontrollably.
Just by experiencing the extreme despair that the three old men felt when they faced the changed meeting members.
***
“How can this be…”
“What the hell is this…”
“Why why why!”
The three old men looked at the women across the table with devastated expressions.
Everyone was equally beautiful.
More than they imagined.
The problem was that those women were not people they could interact with.
-Taang!
Cheonmugeuk slammed the table and glared at Abraxas.
“They’re not elves!”
“Are they prettier than most elves?”
“Isn’t that the problem now?”
Cheonmugeuk’s face turned bright red and he argued, but Abraxas just smiled, elegantly tucking a strand of hair behind his ear. She looked gorgeous today.
“Oh, you didn’t know? “I thought everything was discussed with the governor.”
“…Dowang? “Why does Gunyang’s name appear here?”
The King of Tao didn’t know.
The fact that the Dragon Lord will never favor only one person and lead them to despair.
“He is…”
Abraxas calmly passed the aftereffects of this entire situation on to the king.
The response was amazing!
“This guy will tear you to death!”
“Hehehe….”
“This is because they are water ghosts….” A
terrifying murderous energy flowed from the bodies of the three old men.
Cheonmugeuk glanced at his disciple frozen as stone next to him, sighed, and spoke to Abraxas.
“This is invalid. “Stop playing around and bring in the real elves.”
“They already went back. “I already felt a bit burdened because you guys were my opponents.”
“No, where are we?”
The moment Cheon Mu-geuk stood up and was about to argue, a hand came up on his shoulder.
It was a swordsman.
“Brother Chun. Stop it. “What’s the point in trying to forcefully hold on to a relationship that hasn’t been reached?”
“Hey! “Are you saying that now?”
Geomsung, holding Cheonmugeuk’s shoulder, shook his head.
“Actually, I’ve been feeling uncomfortable ever since I came here. “I will go first.”
“You’re going? “What are you talking about all of a sudden?”
Geomseong stood up, put his back on his back and looked up at the ceiling.
“The whole time I came here, no, ever since this morning, Heejin Sojeo’s face has been in my mind.”
Heejin was Jang Young-shin’s mother’s name.
Geomseong grinned, saying he felt relieved.
“I’m going to go see Heejin. “I plan to formally ask you out on a date before it’s too late.”
With those words, Geomseong unfolded his divine law and suddenly left the place.
The Heavenly Demon looked at the back as if it were absurd.
“What is a relationship… Isn’t that something that I’m going to meet anyway?”
“I feel like today was a mistake, so I’ll leave too.”
Grumble.
Shin Chang also stood up. His eyes were burning with revenge.
“You too? “Where are you going?”
“…I plan to go and punish the man I once believed to be my brother.”
Everyone knew who he was without having to say anything.
And so Sinchang left.
Cheon Mu-geuk, who was left alone, looked at the four women sitting on the other side of the table with a dejected look on his face.
Three of the four had their eyes fixed on Daein.
The sight of his student breaking out in a cold sweat just seemed disgusting to him.
‘You ugly bastard. ‘There’s no one there, but there are three…’
Looking at the atmosphere, it seemed like he wouldn’t be in a good situation if he stayed here any longer.
Tuk-tuk.
Cheon Mu-geuk, who tapped Dae-in’s shoulder, stood up.
“Do your best. “I’ll just go now…”
At that moment, a hand suddenly stretched out and grabbed Cheon Mu-geuk’s wrist.
“Where are you going?”
“What else?”
Cheonmugeuk spoke bluntly and looked at Abraxas.
She was the only one who did not pay attention to Daein and was looking up at Cheonmugeuk.
“Aren’t you going to have a meeting?”
“What…”
Gorgeous dress and accessories.
The makeup she didn’t usually wear, the dizzying high heels
, and the faint scent of roses flowing from her body.
Abraxas, who came out with all his makeup, was even more beautiful than usual.
“Kkeuk hum!”
Cheon Mu-geuk, whose face turned red for no reason, avoided her gaze. I tried to pull out my wrist, but strangely, I had no strength.
“…What is a meeting? I didn’t do anything wrong because of you. In the end, only let your student do good things…”
Why does he sound strangely grumpy?
Why does my chest itch so much?
Why do those cherry-like lips look so desirable?
At that time, Abraxas whispered to Cheon Mu-geuk.
“What are you talking about. I came to see you from the beginning. “I was originally planning on becoming a member of the meeting, right?”
“What what…!”
The Dragon Lord winked and said to the Heavenly Demon, who was blushing in embarrassment.
“Our Mugeuk. “Do you like my sister?”
