Episode 18:
He has an outstanding talent for detecting strange atmospheres. In addition, the light ball is fast enough to be counted among the midfielders, has good insight, and has skillful hands, so it does not suffer any losses.
That person is Jang Sam-tae.
‘Punishment…’
Jang Sam-tae, who was hiding near the government office under Dan Woo-hyeon’s orders, held his breath as he watched a group of people come out carrying something.
Then he followed carefully.
Try not to be noticed from as far away as possible.
‘Why am I doing this!’
Jang Sam-tae cried inwardly.
The opponent was a master. They were also several times better than him.
If he was caught, he would have opened the door to the underworld without even being able to get his bones together. Because it’s not just Hong Won-chang they’re looking for.
If it weren’t for Dan Woo-hyeon’s orders, he might have left right now.
-Hyeonryeong is the guy we need.
– yes?
-This is a guy you need.
– So?
Jang Sam-tae was rubbing his head and crying. The area where I was hit still throbbed.
You hit me on the head for asking me a question. I felt like my already bad hair got worse.
‘By the way, is this the Pyeongpungdae that they only heard about?’
It was so far away that it was virtually impossible to confirm.
However, considering the fact that he was able to come out unharmed even after infiltrating the government office, and because his prayers were so great, I thought he might be a famous Pyopungdae even in the Black Order.
The thought that I was chasing those people gave me goosebumps all over my body.
But that didn’t mean he could disobey Dan Woo-hyeon’s orders and go back.
‘Where are you going?’
Jang Sam-tae followed them carefully.
He was never in a hurry and moved as quietly as possible. Still, he had a habit of stealing, so it is no exaggeration to say that he was confident in this one thing.
But what are they carrying on their backs? It looks like a human, but it doesn’t move.
‘Did you point out the blood?’
With that in mind, I followed them, but then they stopped at a nearby mountain with few people around.
Jang Sam-tae quickly checked the surroundings and settled down in a place where he could easily see the guys.
‘Tongue spirit?’
The scenery he finally saw made Jang Sam-tae doubt his eyes.
I never thought I would catch the spirit himself. A man who was defiant and saying something and a man who was laughing at him caught my eye.
‘Damn it…’
They use strange medicine.
I could tell at a glance that it wasn’t a good thing.
Jang Sam-tae swallowed his saliva and caught his breath. And when he saw that Hyeonryeong’s condition was getting worse, he soon realized that it was time to make a decision.
‘Damn it! If that guy dies in a place like this, things get even more complicated.’ Hong Won-chang is the county governor.
Normally, if you are a wise person, you can live even if you die.
In fact, there is no need to risk your life to save them.
However, when it comes to the local spirit of Akyang in the Honam region, things are different.
He was helpful to Dan Woo-hyeon in many ways. The same goes for the manor problem, but if a dispute arose between Danwoohyeon and the martial arts people, it could have been resolved.
Besides that, he was just a person who could help Hwa So-mi in any way, and was never a person who would harm her. In that sense, finding an author was not a wrong choice.
‘Besides, if this guy dies and I mess up myself… I’ll probably get beaten to death. Punishment….’
Jang Sam-tae ran with tears in his eyes.
First, you have to find it and see it. Because saving Hong Won-chang would be a hundred times better than being beaten to death.
I thought that perhaps Dan Woo-hyeon had also predicted this situation and sent him there.
‘Yes, Sibeol! Search once,
search twice!?
Sasasasak-!
Jang Sam-tae, who stretched out in an instant with a light attack, narrowed the distance. Then Bang Chugok shouted in surprise.
” what!”
fast.
It was so fast that it was difficult to even follow it with the eyes. My hand couldn’t react and only the sound of the wind alerted me that someone was approaching.
The moment Bang Chugok urgently turns his head.
Plop!
“Turn it off!”
A groan was heard from the mouth of one of the subordinates who was holding Hong Won-chang. They were unable to block a move that came in unexpectedly and with a quick light attack.
This momentary surprise attack could be said to be the only attack that Jang Sam-tae was capable of.
“this guy!”
Bang Chugok shouted in surprise and threw out his sword.
The black-edged blade grazed Jang Sam-tae’s shoulder. It wouldn’t have been surprising if I had been cut, but thanks to the fact that I was moving faster than that, I was able to avoid only grazing.
Soon, Jang Sam-tae wrapped Hong Won-chang on his back and started running quickly.
“Chase!”
At that shout, Jang Sam-tae reflexively lowered his head. At the same time, a sharp sound was heard and something passed over my head. Before I knew it, it was the blade of a man in black.
Jang Sam-tae jumped straight into the trees.
It was good in times like this to be confident in light work. No matter how great an expert he is, he cannot escape through this dense forest in an instant.
however.
Chack chack chack-!
“Huh?!”
The sound of the flying machine hitting the tree was intense.
If I had been a little later in bowing my head again, I wouldn’t have been safe.
However, it was still too early to be relieved. As I glanced around, I saw a group of people chasing after me at breakneck speed.
‘What the hell?’
There is only one person who can solve this situation.
The moment I thought of his face, I wanted to say all kinds of swear words, but I held them back. Instead, I gathered my spirit and threw myself away.
That moment.
Sigh-!
Suddenly, a person in black appeared before my eyes. He appeared in an instant and as soon as he appeared, he stretched out his hand and swung a dagger.
fast.
It’s already too late to avoid it.
But the body moved naturally. His right hand moved strangely as he began practicing Tai Chi, which he had learned so far.
I shouldn’t have let down my guard, even though I only had one hand. Because the strange energy that formed in that hand contained a power that was contrary to the inner power of the man in black.
Plop!
“Gagging!” A moan came from the mouth of a righteous person who had been unexpectedly hit in the chest. Because I did not expect this level of shock to come, my body had no choice but to relax, which made the shock even more severe.
“Huh huh…!”
Jang Sam-tae quickly passed by the fallen person.
However, the two round eyes did not fall as they stared at the fallen person. I swallowed my saliva as my eyes watched the scene slowly moving away.
‘Is it true that I did it?’
It was a sensation I had never felt before. What if your opponent falls down with just one hit?
The situation was different from the light attack and surprise attack a little while ago. They faced each other from the front.
‘What on earth happened?’
Jang Sam-tae shook his head and ran without stopping.
There was no time to think about anything. Many people were still following Jang Sam-tae. Among them, Bangchugok was chasing after him so fast that he could clearly see them.
If things continued like this, it wouldn’t take long for them to catch up.
‘You just have to hold on for a little while. He is a monstrous human being like no other. If there’s this much commotion, they’ll notice right away!’
Thinking about that, I swallowed my saliva.
Danwoohyeon will definitely come. Just like last time.
Although he absolutely loved money and was a cheap guy whether he knew it or not, he was not so rotten that he would turn a blind eye to situations like this.
He will never betray his expectations.
‘Damn it! ‘I’m not another human being and I have to trust him…!’
What is life like?
That time.
Dan Woo-hyeon was quietly outside the manor.
Holding the sword in one hand, he looked at the moonlight and gently closed his eyes. He seemed somehow happy, as if he was feeling something or enjoying this atmosphere.
I liked the feel of the sword I was holding in my hand.
Dan Woo-hyeon’s companion who has been with him for a very long time. Maybe that’s why when I held this sword, my mind became peaceful no matter what the situation.
Slurp-!
Dan Woo-hyeon drew his sword.
A blade so sharp that it put the passage of a thousand years to shame was revealed. This sword, which has never faded from the moment it began its life as a warrior until now, was truly the world’s most famous sword.
“You have drunk a lot of blood, but you are different from me.”
As much as Dan Woo-hyeon saw blood, this sword also drank blood. However, although the two were the same, they were dramatically different.
Unlike Dan Woo-hyeon, who was still craving a little blood, this sword seemed to just calmly leave everything to Dan Woo-hyeon.
This may be possible because it is the Cheonpa Sword, which is said to be the best sword in the world.
Dan Woo-hyeon smiled and slowly moved his hand.
It was a graceful movement, as if dancing. The shining moonlight made the sword blade shine even more, and Dan Woo-hyeon’s moving figure was so perfect that you couldn’t take your eyes off the moment you looked at it.
And at some point.
Ssssssssssssshhhh—!
Dan Woo-hyeon swung his sword wide horizontally.
A harsh wind blew around him, and for a moment, a strange phenomenon occurred where it seemed as if the surrounding area was shaking violently.
But that wasn’t what happened.
However, only Dan Woo-hyeon was moving at a plodding pace.
