Episode 1008 That’s what it means to become an adult. (2)
The next day.
“Keuung…”
Before Namgung Dowi could open his eyes, he groaned and grabbed his head.
“…Ugh, my head…”
It felt like a bell was ringing in my head.
‘How much did I drink?’
As time passed, memories came back vaguely.
The original alcohol was quickly emptied, but Cheongmyeong suddenly got up, went somewhere, and came back carrying a bottle of alcohol in both hands.
– I have to eat and die. Hey, drink. drink!
– All of this?
– why? Can’t you eat it? Anyway, this is why they are Saennim! Tsk tsk.
– Let’s eat! Why can’t I eat it!
“…It did.”
I must have gotten drunk too. You take a sip, I take a sip, you take a sip, I take a sip….
‘It’s crazy.’
I ate it all up.
Even if it was water in the world, I couldn’t drink it all, but I drank it all.
“Off. “It’s my head…”
He had experienced hangovers from time to time, but the headache that was coming to him now was enough to shatter all of the concept of hangovers he had known until now.
Namgung Dowi, who was holding his head and moaning, suddenly remembered a very natural and fundamental question.
‘What on earth is that drink made from?’
What kind of material is this alcohol made from that makes you feel like you’ve been hit on the head with a hammer?
And what on earth is Cheongmyeong doing that makes him choose such a drink?
“Ugh…”
He groaned, holding his head, and opened his frowning eyes with difficulty.
‘Oh, it’s dazzling.’
He frowned, reflexively covering his eyes. The sun is so hot that I can’t open my eyes properly…
‘Now wait a minute. ‘It’s dazzling?’
He opened his eyes again. Bright sunlight was streaming in through the window. Namgung Do-wi, who had been looking at this in a daze, was so startled that he jumped up.
“It’s ruined!”
The fact that the sun is this hot means that it has already been a while since morning. He gave Gasol such a serious look yesterday, but what would everyone think if he were to be late for training the next morning?
Nangong Daowi, who was frightened, quickly turned his power and drove out Zhou Do.
“clothes! My clothes!”
I quickly searched everywhere, but I couldn’t find where I had left my outerwear. There was no way I could remember the whereabouts of my clothes since I couldn’t even remember how I got back to the room in the first place.
“driving me crazy!”
After searching everywhere, I finally found some clothes under the blanket. He quickly put on his clothes, refined his clothes at lightning speed, and jumped out.
No, I tried to jump out.
I flinch.
Before I opened the door, I unconsciously stopped.
“….”
Why didn’t I wake him up?
They were scheduled to practice early in the morning, and if they had gone out to practice, wouldn’t they have come to pick up Nangong Daowi?
Then, no way…
Namgung Dowi hesitated, holding on to the doorknob.
What should we do if none of Nangong’s swordsmen came out to practice? There was a conversation like that yesterday, but did they really want to conduct the training on their own without even Nangung Dowi participating?
A deep sigh escaped me.
Know. No matter what sight you see, you should not be disappointed.
Hoping that people will behave as he wants is nothing more than greed. If it were that easy, there wouldn’t be any failed leaders, right?
‘Let’s not be hasty.’
As Cheongmyeong said, it is difficult for everyone. It’s even weirder that it isn’t difficult. So, just take it slow. Because there are people who tell me that I’m doing well. Someday, Gasol will realize his sincerity.
Namgung Do-wi, who had made up his mind, opened the door at once.
Soon, his eyes widened as he saw the scene unfolding in front of him.
“Everyone…”
In front of the room where he lived, inspectors from the Namgung family were lined up. Not a single person was left out.
“Oh no. why…?”
A look of embarrassment was evident on his face, unable to speak properly. As I was staring blankly at the people lined up, Namgungdan took a step forward.
“Did you cough?”
“…step.”
As the representative, he bowed his head towards Namgung Dowi. It wasn’t excessive, but it was polite.
“W what are you doing here now?”
“Of course I was waiting for Lord Soga.”
“me?”
Nangong Daowi’s face hardened slightly. Namgungdan smiled as he looked at that face.
“Actually, I thought about going first and starting training, but…” “
…”
“It didn’t make any sense.”
“…What do you mean it’s meaningless?”
“Whether I become stronger through that training or not, it has no meaning if Lord Soga is not with me.”
Nangung Dowi clenched his fists without realizing it.
“Lord Soga. “We are the Namgung family.”
“….”
“And the Namgung family only follows the words of the head of the family. “If the head of the family orders, I will jump into that place without hesitation, even if it is the fiery pit of hell.”
“Namgoongdan….”
“We overdid it yesterday. It’s just… no. I won’t make excuses. sorry.”
“I’m sorry, Lord Soga!”
“sorry!”
Everyone bowed their heads towards Nangong Daowi.
“…I realized it again the moment Lord Soga spoke about plum blossoms. “It means that Lord Soga is constantly thinking about the best way to lead Nangung.”
“….”
“We should have thought about that first.”
“No, no.”
Namgung Dowi shook his head.
“It’s my fault. What I think is best may not be what you think is best. So, we should have talked, explained, and thought about it together… I just thought that if I took the lead, everyone would just follow. “I was arrogant.”
“No, Lord Soga.”
“So, please ask me again here.”
Nangung Dowi bowed his head deeply towards everyone.
“It’s not enough, but I still think this is the best way for the Namgung family. So everyone, trust me and follow me.”
He raises his head and looks at everyone. The eyes were clearer and clearer than ever.
“I will also try and work hard to become the head of the family that you can be proud of.”
Everyone nodded vigorously.
“Of course, Lord Soga!”
“I believe so!”
Namgung Do-wi quietly closed his eyes, unable to overcome his overwhelming heart.
“…thanks.”
I find out again. Our thoughts and methods may be different, but our pursuit is the same.
Isn’t that ‘family’?
“Let’s go.”
“okay.”
Nangong Dowi nodded.
This may not be enough. Maybe we should talk more in the future.
However, Nangong Daowi will not hesitate to persuade them.
Because there is not just one way to lead people. There is no need for him to become Emperor Nangong. All he has to do is keep the spirit that Emperor Nangong taught him.
“Let’s go.”
“yes!”
Namgung Dowi stepped forward and led Namgung’s swordsmen.
With an extremely confident gait.
“Kuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu her
its…” “I’m an eclipse…”
“Kill it…. Kill it! Porridge….”
“Do you really want to kill me?”
“Oh no…”
Cheongmyeong’s eyes glazed over as he looked at the people lying face down with rocks on their backs.
“But the more I think about these bastards, the more ridiculous it becomes. Are you kidding me? “Are you skipping group training?”
“….”
“Even a bastard named Sogaju? “This bastard got something from me, so I tried to treat him decently, but what?”
“….”
Nangong Daowi’s face, which had been contorted in pain, became stained with resentment.
‘No, it’s because of you!’
Who gave him that much alcohol? If you eat it and wake up at dawn in your right mind, is that a person?
“what? Even if we die, we die together, and even if we live, we live together?”
“….”
“Hey you bastards! All the bastards who said that are dead! Even if Kang-gi comes flying from the other side, we are the bastards who will stick together to live and die together!”
“Oh no….”
“That’s a good thing. It’s a good thing. Isn’t there a guy who was the head of the Namgung family’s small family and couldn’t get over his drunkenness and started having sex? Those who are supposed to wake it up are probably just waiting for it.”
“….”
“If Emperor Namgung saw this, he would have hit you with a royal sword on your head, you bastards!”
“….”
What should I say? I was feeling very touched a little while ago…
but after listening to Cheongmyeong’s words, I felt like he was right. It is certainly true that if the previous head of the family had seen this, everything would have been destroyed.
Is that why?
“…what?”
“no.”
I felt like Gasol’s perspective on Namgung Dowi was slightly different from before. Is it just a misunderstanding on the part of Namgung Dowi?
“It looks like you guys don’t know what to say and are being rude.”
“….”
“If you miss one day, you end up wasting ten days. That’s training. There are dozens of excuses a day to take a break from training. “The moment you say that as if it’s obvious, your unmanned life ends!”
“….”
“Is it raining or snowing or is it windy? Are the Sapa bastards attacking? Do what you have to do! That’s the basics! “A bastard who doesn’t practice after drinking alcohol isn’t even qualified to hold a sword!”
At that moment, Namgoong Dan raised his trembling hand.
“what?”
“A question… can I ask you one question?”
“try.”
“Uh…. Kkuk…. Kkuk!”
thud!
The moment Namgungdan opened his mouth, his other arm trembled and gave out. Soon he fell forward.
Cheongmyeong trudged over with the look on his face as if he wanted to see all the stars and kicked and rolled the rock that had crushed Namgungdan.
“Huh! “I thought you were going to die…”
“What is your question?”
“Oh yeah!”
Namgungdan stood up with a proud look on his face.
“Hwasan Sword Association! This is absolutely not rebellion! “I’m not complaining.”
“Get rid of the editorial.”
“yes!”
Namgungdan swallowed his dry saliva and opened his mouth.
“Can we really become stronger if we do this training?”
“what?”
When Cheongmyeong rolled his eyes, he quickly waved his hand.
“So, I told you! “This is not a complaint!”
“…keep going.”
“yes!”
Namgungdan nods his head vigorously and continues speaking.
“Of course, we know that the Hwasan Sword Association is strong enough to overpower the Black Dragon King. But our foundation is always the Namgung family.”
“so?”
“Although he passed away due to a scream, we believe that the previous head of the family was an expert who was at least as good as the Hwasan Sword Association, or even better.”
Cheongmyeong’s mouth twitched subtly.
However, the inspectors of the Namgung family only thought that Cheongmyeong was offended, but did not know that he was desperately holding back the ridicule.
“so?”
“The training we are doing now is very different from what we learned at Namgung Family. Isn’t a family’s method of mastering martial arts the best known to that family? Therefore, we are not sure if it is right to overdo the training that the matriarch did not ask us to do.”
“So, to summarize….”
Cheongmyeong flicked his fingers lightly.
“Can’t you believe I’m getting stronger through this training?”
“…To be precise, what I am saying is that if we had more convincing evidence, we would be able to work harder.”
“That’s a dirty word.”
“…sorry.”
Namgungdan swore inwardly.
If you’re going to say that, then just leave your fist still, as if you were debating whether to punch me or not!
“I would like to ask for your seal too.”
At that time, Namgung Dowi put down the rock he was carrying and handed it over to Cheongmyeong.
“These are not the people who saw everything I saw. Asking everyone to follow along can actually be detrimental. please.”
Cheongmyeong looked at Nangong Dowi and asked.
“Do you really want to check?”
“…yes?”
“I don’t think it’s such a good idea, but… well, it’s not a bad thing for me.”
“….”
“Follow me. “I’ll prove it to you.”
Cheongmyeong said with a grin.
“A chick should start by knowing that he is a chick. Let’s go, chicks. But now I’m going to show you guys that look a little like chickens.”
The swordsmen of Namgung tilted their heads and followed him.
