< Full course >
In the room with the lights off, a trembling voice rang out.
“Pacheongeomje?”
It’s late at night with only a handful of moonlight coming through the window.
Namgung Jeongcheon was standing with his back in the middle of his room, with the moonlight behind him.
“yes. “My lord.”
And in front of Namgung Jeongcheon, Biyeong, who took care of the dirty work of the Namgung family, was kneeling on one knee.
Biyoung reported what happened at the banquet hall.
“After the lord left the banquet hall, the Murim lord personally gave him the nickname Pacheongeomje.”
“Pacheongeomjera… “It’s too much of a star rating for a reviewer like Jisoo.”
A chilling voice and a horrifying murderous spirit burst out. Biyoung felt the hairs on her entire body stand up.
‘The lord is truly angry.’
Namgung Jeongcheon was truly a scary person.
Known in martial arts circles, he is fair and a charlatan who has been at the forefront of eradicating Sima Mao’s deviance throughout his life, but it is not enough to hear that the crimes he committed behind his back were called Dae-Madu.
Biyoung knew that better than anyone else. Because she was the one who always had blood on her hands at the orders of Namgung Jeong Cheon.
“What happened after that?”
“The banquet was quickly canceled due to Pacheongeomje’s internal injuries. Afterwards, it was confirmed that Pacheon Geomje returned to the guesthouse with Saja Geom and Namgung Hyeon…”
“Biyoung.”
“yes.”
“If you call that bastard Pacheongeomje one more time, I will rip out your tongue.”
“···sorry.”
Biyoung lowered her head. 15 years ago, the wound on my left eye, which was pulled out by Nangong Jeongcheon for missing the fleeing lion sword, was painful.
“Didn’t he come back out after going into the guest room?
“My subordinates are constantly watching. “There has been no significant movement so far.”
“What about cleaning up the surrounding area?”
“We have bribed the warriors of the Murim Alliance who are supposed to patrol the area. “No one will come to the guesthouse until daybreak.”
“What about the tail?”
“I already cut it.”
Finally, Namgung Jeongcheon nodded as if he was satisfied.
Except once, Biyoung has never disappointed him.
Even though that one mistake remained as a curse to Heaven.
‘There will never be a mistake like that again.’
Namgung Jeongcheon gritted his teeth. What was not done 15 years ago will be neatly completed today.
“When will support from other Sega arrive?”
“I sent the pipes, so they will all arrive within half an hour.”
Just like 15 years ago, Namgung Jeongcheon even borrowed the power of other five major families.
Other family heads did not step forward like Namgung Jeongcheon, but instead decided to support 10 elite warriors each raised in secret.
All of them are top-notch experts or higher.
‘Here is Bi-young, a top expert, and his subordinates. And I will come forward myself.’
Although the numbers were much smaller than 15 years ago, there was never a shortage of power.
‘With this level of power, even if the opponent is a sword saint, he can kill him. It’s about that kid…’
No matter how much of a genius he was, Namgung Jeongcheon had already made a name for himself as a teenage master 10 years ago.
Except for the Three Emperors of the World and the Murim Lord Yayulgi, there was no expert who dared to face him.
‘Merchant Namgung. ‘Watch your son die underground.’
“My lord. “Reinforcements have arrived.”
Biyoung’s voice woke Namgung Jeongcheon from his thoughts. He left the room with Biyoung.
Outside, about 50 warriors were gathered in one place, hiding their identities in black masks.
Namgung Jeongcheon looked around at them and nodded with satisfaction.
‘The family heads chose the right elite and sent them.’
All well-refined prayers. You could tell the level just by looking at the movement.
“I think you heard the story before you came.
There was no need for long words. After looking around at the warriors, Namgungjeong Cheon took her mask out of her arms and put it on her face.
“egg plant.”
Slurp.
Namgung Jeongcheon’s new form instantly disappeared into the darkness.
And following them, dozens of masked people also seeped into the darkness.
***
[Surround the guest room and wait for my signal.]
Namgung Jeongcheon gave orders to Biyeong and then walked into the guesthouse alone.
The guesthouse was completely empty.
However, there is only one sign that can be felt from the second floor.
Namgung Jeongcheon immediately realized that the figure was a great person.
‘Smart guy. I was left alone and everyone else was evacuated.’
Namgung Jeongcheon took off his mask. There was no need to wear a mask since we had come this far.
When I went up to the second floor, the person in charge was drinking tea in the room.
But something was a little strange. Even though there was clearly no one there, the man looked as if he was having a conversation with someone.
The great man glanced at Nangong Jeongcheon and spoke quickly.
“kid. Let’s hang up now that we have a guest. Be sure to brush your teeth before going to bed. ···Martial arts? Hey, don’t do anything stupid… “You already learned it?”
‘this guy. Could it be that he was drunk? ‘He’s saying strange things into the air even though no one is around.’
Since the Daein was speaking in Korean, it only sounded like an alien language to Namgung Jeongcheon’s ears.
The great man continued speaking.
“You can’t just learn martial arts if you want to. Flame magic? “It’s already 5 stars?”
At that moment, the great man let out a long sigh and muttered something to himself very softly.
“Damn talented people…”
“Are you ignoring me on purpose?”
As Namgung Jeongcheon cried out for his life, the great man raised his hand and asked for a moment of understanding.
“Oh, wait a minute. “I’m on the phone.”
“······.”
Just before Nangong Jeongcheon could bear it no longer and put his hand on the hilt of his sword, Daein hung up the call.
“I’m here? “Sit over there.”
“Have you never learned how to be polite to adults?”
Then the great man chuckled.
“An adult must act like an adult to be an adult. “Are people adults who pretend to be nice in front of people, but do dirty things behind their backs while peeling pumpkin seeds?”
I wanted to tear that snout down right away because he wouldn’t give up on a single word, but Nangong Jeongcheon showed the limits of his patience and sat down opposite the great man.
“Did you bring the stamped document?”
Namgung Jeongcheon placed a bamboo container containing documents on the table.
However, before the great man could take it and check it, he pulled his hand back and asked.
“What did you steal from my safe?”
The great man put the bundle at his feet on the table. When I opened it, all the items stolen from the secret safe were inside.
A bitter smile appeared on Namgung Jeongcheon’s lips.
“You kept your promise.”
“Unlike others, I am an adult.”
“Kkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk.”
A dark smile spread across Namgung Jeongcheon’s lips. He handed the bamboo tube containing the documents to Daein.
Daein took out the document and checked its contents.
There was not a single seal on it.
“······.”
“Sweetheart. “That’s what it means to be an adult.”
Namgung Jeongcheon stood up. The tremendous power flowing from his body swirled around the room.
“He is someone who knows how to be patient. To endure any insult, pain, or anger. To be patient and wait for the right opportunity. “That is adulthood.”
The great man clicked his tongue and said.
“I am indeed. It sounds like you should wait and then shame yourself. Did they also exterminate the Geomwangmun in that way?”
A bitter smile appeared on Namgung Jeongcheon’s lips.
“It was the greatest patience of my life. “It was a grand project that took decades.”
Namgung Jeongcheon no longer hid anything.
All the items that could have been his only weak points were recovered, and there was only one child sitting in front of him with internal injuries.
How could one be so stupid and naive?
“Tsk tsk tsk tsk.”
Laughter leaked out. Thinking that today would be the end of my terrible relationship with Merchant Namgung, I felt a little sad.
That may be why he talks more than usual.
“Do you know why my nickname is Changcheonshingeom?”
Nangong Jeongcheon looked at the Changcheon God Sword hanging on the great man’s waist and said.
“well. “I don’t really want to know.”
Regardless of the great man’s answer, Namgung Jeongcheon told the secret behind his nickname.
“This is to keep remembering the fact that I destroyed the Sword Emperor Gate with my own hands. Kkkkkkkkk. “The Geomwang’s new soldiers destroyed the Geomwangmun.”
The great man thought.
‘This is very psycho.’
“So you’re saying you came up with that star name yourself?”
“Is that possible? “I spent some money.”
Byeolho is ultimately a name that other people call you.
Although there are not many people who actually do that, there were cases where they built a star house themselves or paid money or a bribe to ask Myeong-suk from the martial arts group to build one for them.
Changcheonshingeom was also a special name created through such manipulation. Although the method was much more subtle.
“Kkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk.”
In other words, Namgung Jeongcheon was insulting them even after he destroyed the Geomwangmun.
“It was so funny when the Changcheon Shingeom was actually discovered. however···. “It won’t be long before the sword will be in my hands.”
Namgung Jeongcheon did not hide his greed. His eyes were shining as he looked at the Changcheon Divine Sword.
“I can’t just use it as is, so I’ll have to do some work on it.”
The great man had an expression of bewilderment.
“Isn’t this a completely perverted idiot?”
“Say whatever you want. “There won’t be much time left to do that.”
Sigh!
When Namgung Jeongcheon snapped his fingers, the black masked people who had been surrounding the guesthouse outside came inside.
Namgung Jeongcheon said with a chuckle.
“I will kill you. But I won’t kill you easily here.”
“······.”
The great man looked around without answering.
Dozens of masters, all of whom exuded extraordinary prayer, were surrounding him.
“I will capture you here and take you underground. “I will take out your eyes, cut off each muscle, skin you alive, and pickle you in salt.”
Namgung Jeongcheon became more and more intoxicated with what he was saying.
It took 15 years. The fact that he had finally found the son of the merchant Namgung made him very excited.
“After that, I will make you spit out all the martial arts left by the Sword Emperor without missing a single word. “I will torture you with my own hands.”
“······.”
“Kkekekeke. You won’t be lonely. “I will soon find that woman and the lion sword and keep them by my side.”
“okay. “Are they all in now?”
“···?”
At that moment, Namgung Jeongcheon’s expression hardened. She saw only an expression of disdain for her on the man’s face, which should have been filled with fear by now.
“Did everyone come in? “I’m getting tired of this bullshit, so I’m going to get started soon.”
The great man stood up and drew his sword. Namgungjeong Cheon, who thought it was a bluff, snorted at her.
“Are you going to make a last-ditch effort?”
Daein already suffered a major internal injury in the Yongbongbimu finals.
Even if he was fine, Namgung Jeongcheon was a master of the highest rank.
Moreover, the guesthouse was surrounded by dozens of masked people of first-class expert level or higher.
but,
The great man laughed. He laughed as if he was very happy.
“You will have to do the final struggle.”
Daein activated the magical sealing barrier installed throughout the guesthouse.
-Oooooh!
The barrier was activated, suppressing the magical power, or internal energy, of those within the range.
“Huh!”
“Ugh!”
The masked people suddenly groaned as they felt their blood flow being blocked and their danjeon being closed.
A first-class expert could not use any of his internal power, and even a peak expert could not raise his internal power to less than 30%.
“It’s mountain communism! Take the anti-inflammatory drug!”
At Biyoung’s shout, the masked people took the antidote. However, the cancellation of the martial law did nothing to dispel the magic.
The great man chuckled as he watched his enemies bewildered.
“If you’re already embarrassed, why don’t you write it? “I prepared a full magic experience course.”
As the great man chanted a short spell, the artifacts planted throughout the guesthouse simultaneously activated their magic.
“My body…”
Slow made the enemies move slower,
“Hey!”
Confuse has thrown the enemy into confusion,
“It’s the devil! “The devil has appeared!”
Added to this was the illusion, which showed terrifying hallucinations to mentally weakened enemies.
“It’s a hex!”
“He uses hex!”
For the martial arts people who had no idea how to deal with magic, each and every curse spell was fatal.
The great man walked between them, swinging his sword lightly as if harvesting.
Sigh! Sigh!
Heads separated from the body were rolling around on the floor. The floor of the guesthouse quickly became stained with blood.
However, there was not a single drop of human blood among them.
“Ugh…. this guy! “What on earth did you use?”
Namgung Jeongcheon, whose face turned red, blocked Daein’s path. He was radiating self-defense energy with his whole body.
The great man clicked his tongue lightly at that sight.
“Definitely cilantro is cilantro.”
Even in the middle of the anti-magic barrier, Nangong Jeongcheon was holding on by raising his internal power.
I concentrated the curse magic, but it withstood it quite well.
Indeed, it was a skill worthy of competing with the top 10 martial arts masters.
“dare···. “Dirty trap…!”
“why? “Are you mad because you tried to surprise me and got hit back?”
“Aaaah!”
Namgung Jeongcheon’s face was distorted like a murderous beast. He drew her sword and lunged at the great man.
Even though he was trapped in an anti-magic barrier and was directly hit by all kinds of curses, his speed was incredible.
However, it was also a speed that a large person could easily avoid.
Whick!
Daein, who dodged the attack, launched the Changcheonshinsword into the air.
And he held Shalit in his right hand.
At the same time, for the first time in a long time, I lightly stroked the watch Tichtal wore on my left wrist.
Drurrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!
The dark blue metal spread up and down and instantly wrapped around the entire left arm.
A moment later, a sleek hand cannon was mounted on Daein’s left hand.
“Well, what is that…!”
“be careful! “This guy is using a strange magic trick!”
The surviving black masked people screamed as if they had seen a ghost.
But it wasn’t over yet. The great man took out a potion from his pocket.
A potion that cures all types of ‘status abnormalities’.
By drinking this potion, Manpaku Nogei was able to release a point to limit Daein’s internal energy.
“You’re okay now that you won, right?”
The great man drank the potion.
-Kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa!
The enormous inner energy that had been unused and stagnated in the dantian until now spewed outward as it raced through my entire body like crazy.
-Puhwaaaaaaaaaaa!
The two black masked people who were nearby fainted from the terrifying energy wave.
The great man spoke with a much refreshed expression.
“Whew. “I feel like my self-esteem has completely disappeared.”
On the other hand, Namgung Jeongcheon’s face was turning blue.
