< Episode 53: Surrender (3) >
“Can you make me give in?”
“I will try.”
“If you feel out of control talk about it. “Now that I think about it I think it would be okay to use it as Gyu So-ha’s body.”
‘Gyusoha?’
Who is that?
Go Chan who had been possessed by Jang Neung-ak could not hide his surprise at Mo Gyeong-un’s words.
When I thought about the story carefully it seemed as if there were more vengeful spirits like them when they said it was okay to use the body.
As if his guess was correct Mok Gyeong-un smiled and agreed.
“that’s right. “There’s more.”
So-so-ha.
He was a vengeful spirit raised in solitude under the cliffs of Sihyeolgok.
He became a food spirit by Mok Gyeong-un and is now guarding the place by possessing Yang Mu-won the treasurer of Sihyeolgok under orders.
Originally he was only at the level of a green spirit because his solitude was not complete but after absorbing it from Mok Gyeong-un and receiving the energy of the remaining raccoon spirit beast Gu Hwan-cheon-gu the Assassin King his rank was raised to a blue spirit.
-It would be quite interesting if this guy met a guy who insisted that he was a man.
-I see.
Mok Gyeong-un also agreed with Cheongryeong’s words.
Even though he was being mistreated by Gyu So-ha a young man who looked like a woman no matter how he looked at it he insisted that he was a man.
-I think it would be okay to bring him in soon.
As Gyulsoha’s level increased he became a vengeful spirit that could take on even the highest level of masters.
He couldn’t continue to ignore such a being.
-Do you have a replacement?
Cheongryeong asked puzzled.
Except for her most of her food spirits had their own roles to play.
Ma Seung possessed Byeok Guard a confidant of the Amjongju and was performing the role of monitoring him and collecting information so there was no food spirit to replace him.
-It seems that the more loyal a person is the more willful they are in life or the stronger their desire for revenge the higher the chance of being reborn as a vengeful soul.
-…What are you thinking?
-I can feel the spiritual energy there.
The place where Mok Kyung-un is looking.
That place was towards the east of the garden where Ha-seok’s warriors had retreated.
He Seok’s warriors who retreated were killed by Yosu Heum Won and Wi Maeng Cheon.
-You really?
-yes.
Mok Gyeong-un whose main power had become much stronger after eating the eyeball of the Three Eyes could clearly feel the budding spiritual energy.
A newly born vengeful spirit does not reach the level of Jibakryeong at best so its will gradually weakens and eventually disappears.
however
‘If you just give me a little help it will make a difference.’
He can be possessed even if he reaches the level of red spirit which is the level at which he can be given a rank.
Mok Gyeong-un tried to take his steps.
Then Gochan who was possessed by Jang Neungak asked.
“Master?”
Go Chan pointed to Ha Chae-rin who was showing fear and alertness at the same time like a wildcat with bristled fur.
Mok Kyung-un responded in an indifferent tone.
“iced coffee. “Take care of it.”
Now Gochan was in charge of Ha Chae-rin.
Mok Gyeong-un who had left her in the care of her high-chan moved from his seat and headed past the garden pavilion to the place where he could feel spiritual power.
Heumwon a shrunken beast was flying around there and there were Ha-seok’s warriors cold corpses on the floor.
Among them a being born from a vengeful spirit was seen.
-I found it.
The corners of Mo Kyung-un’s mouth rose.
* * *
Go Chan approached Ha Chae-rin who was very nervous.
Then Ha Chae-rin was startled and aimed her spirit reflection at Go-chan.
“Don’t come any closer!”
Originally she was trained as an assassin to maintain her composure at all costs so she was not easily disturbed by this.
But things were not like that now.
She felt strangely disconnected from moving her body as if she had been asleep for a long time and then woke up and she couldn’t even figure out what was going on.
They were clearly targeting Mok Gyeong-un’s life at the Yeonmok Sword Ground but what does this mean?
Gochan spoke to her.
“hey.”
At Gochan’s call Ha Chae-rin looked at her Gochan with nervous eyes.
Gochan felt a strange joy inwardly at that reaction.
Until her death she thought of herself as a very insignificant low-level lifer.
But she was keeping herself in check.
‘Foot.’
She was truly exquisite.
After changing her body she seemed infinitely weak.
Of course that is how strong the body of Jang Neungak Hoeju’s second disciple was.
Her triumphant Gochan warned her.
“You’d better be quiet.”
“Damn it. “Where are you and what are you?”
Gochan clicked his tongue at her harsh tone.
I had forgotten about her for a while but as expected she had a harsh tone of voice.
Her original personality wasn’t going anywhere.
“If you keep acting like that her life will be in danger. “He has no mercy.”
“Him? Are you really talking about tree cultivation?”
“okay.”
Ha Chae-rin frowned at these high praise words.
Even so her mind was very confused by the existence of Mok Gyeong-un.
Mok Gyeong-un was the last sacrifice of Baek Il Baek in order to be recognized as the head of Bisalmun Gate.
But I don’t know where it went wrong.
It was clear that the Yeonmok Swordmaster Mok Gyeong-woon he knew was nothing more than a coward who did not even have martial arts skills.
However when he closed and opened his eyes the way he controlled that feeling of intimidation and excitement was truly unrivaled.
‘What on earth? ‘What happened?’
How did such a monster become the last sacrifice of the 110-year-old?
Baek Il Baek is chosen as someone who will not have any major problems even if he dies.
But isn’t he someone you can’t kill?
Gochan stares at her in confusion.
The corner of Gochan’s mouth twitched.
[Take care of it yourself.]
Mok Gyeong-un entrusted Ha Chae-rin to him.
Therefore he now had the power over her life and death.
[To take revenge on Uncle Gam the uncle killed Confucius whom he served and committed suicide. Got it?]
[From the very beginning….]
[fizzle. Be quiet. Still even though I retired I can’t thank you enough for preserving my honor as a member of the Bisalmun.]
It reminds me of the time when I was bullied by Ha Chae-rin.
She was treated like absolute trash.
Even her death was thanks to her.
But here comes the opportunity to repay this with my own hands unintentionally?
The corner of his mouth that had been twitching went up slyly.
Soon her high praise approached her.
Then
-Push!
As soon as he got close to her Hae-rin threw her spirit a beam of light at Go-chan.
however
-Park!
‘!?’
Younginbichim could not break through the gochan and was caught between the index and middle fingers.
‘I can see it. ‘I can see everything!’
Go Chan was inwardly delighted.
Even the infamous symbol of a non-slayer the spirit-in-shadow was of no use to me now.
I felt like I could catch it with my eyes closed just by hearing the sound.
Ha Chae-rin said surprised to see such a high praise.
“What are you all?”
“identity? I am….”
[I never thought I would see a retired person like this. Uncle Gochan. Or should I call you former low-ranking assassin No. 83?]
In that moment what she said came to mind.
In my heart I thought ‘I am the low-ranking assassin number 83!’ She wanted to stop but from the moment she was possessed she had to be faithful to that role.
That’s why
“I…no the Confucius I saw was Jang Neungak.”
“Jangneungak?”
‘Jangneungak…? Jangneungak? I’ve heard this name before… Jang Neungak…. Jangneungak…. Jang…!’
At that moment Ha Chae-rin’s eyes widened.
That’s because there was only one Jang Neungak she knew.
It was Jang Neung-ak the second disciple of the head of the Cheonjihoe a large organization that divided the current martial arts world into three parts.
Surprised and embarrassed she soon denied reality.
“Nonsense! Are you…Jang Neungak? Is that possible? Why is the second disciple of the Cheonjihoe Hoeju to the Yeonmokgeomjang…”
“Does this place look like Yeonmok Geomjang?”
“what?”
“This is the inner hall of Cheonjihoe and this Confucius’ manor.”
‘!?’
Ha Chae-rin’s expression hardened at these words.
no. Does this make sense?
Even before she opened her eyes she was clearly in the Lotus Swordsman so why was she in the Heaven and Earth Association?
To her perplexity her Gochan spoke as he tightened his hold on her neck.
“Ha Chae-rin.”
She raised her head and looked at her old friend.
How does this guy know his own name?
Did you hear that from that guy Mok Gyeong-un?
I was puzzled but Gochan continued speaking.
“I’m nineteen. “She is the only granddaughter of Bisalsaekgaek who retired at the age of 80 and heir to the Bisalmun group a group of noble assassins.”
‘!?’
“Due to his impetuous and hot-tempered personality that did not suit his needs he was forced to close down in the Bisaldong and after coming out he is in the midst of a hundred and one hundred deaths to become the successor… Ah! “Since she failed to kill her last target Mok Gyeong-un it will be difficult for her to be considered a successor now.”
“What are you?”
Ha Chae-rin’s eyes trembled.
That’s what human psychology is like.
She herself doesn’t know much about her partner but her partner knows very much about her.
The anxiety and fear that came from it was difficult to describe in words.
It’s as if everything about her is being exposed.
Her high praise came right in front of her and spoke in her voice.
“It’s been annoying to hear you since a while ago isn’t it? “At best you’re quite arrogant about being the heir to the assassination group aren’t you?”
“That… that…”
Ha Chae-rin was at a loss for a moment after hearing Gochan’s words.
If the other person was indeed Jang Neung-ak the second disciple of the head of the Heaven and Earth Society he was not someone who could be treated carelessly.
If the Cheonjihoe decided to destroy Bisalmun in one night it would not have been an easy task.
No matter how problematic her personality was she knew how to discern her own interests to that extent.
“Confucius. There seems to be some misunderstanding. “I don’t know why I’m here…”
“Okay kneel.”
“yes?”
“Kneel.”
Ha Chae-rin hesitated for a moment at these high praise words.
Even though she is the second disciple of the head of the Heaven and Earth Society isn’t this too much at first meeting?
What did she do like this…
-match!
At that moment Chae-rin’s head turned to her side.
Her cheeks felt hot.
Her go-chan gave her a slap and said with a grin on her face.
“Kneel.”
Normally she would have given in at this point but she had enough stubbornness and spirit to make even the cold-hearted assassins get offended in everything.
Ha Chae-rin said biting her lips tightly.
“Confucius. “I don’t know what I heard from that guy named Mok Gyeong-un but this is him…”
-match!
“Ah.”
Ha Chae-rin’s cheek turned the other way.
The power exerted this time was incomparable to what it was just before.
Blood flowed from her mouth which burst open due to her efforts.
The veins in her eyes were bursting.
“This is going too far.”
“Cheeky bitch. Who are you slandering? “He is the one I serve.”
“yes?”
Ha Chae-rin could not hide her embarrassment at these high praise words.
What did she say from the mouth of a big man who was the second disciple of the head of the Heaven and Earth Society?
He is the one who serves?
I assumed they were related but this was quite shocking.
Why is it that a disciple of the head of the Heaven and Earth Society is said to serve the child of a shaman of the right faction?
I couldn’t understand it at all.
That said
-Pfft!
Gochan punched her in the face again.
The force this time was stronger than before so her head turned even more.
And her face became hot and even had bruises.
“go…”
-Pfft!
Before I could speak Gochan slapped me on the other cheek.
She Ha Chae-rin’s cheek turned the other way.
“Haa…haa….”
-Gurgling! Pop! Pop!
Her head shook and blood flowed from her mouth and fell to the floor.
Every time I hit it the force got stronger and I felt painful and dizzy.
So when Gochan tried to raise his hand once again
-thud!
Before that Ha Chae-rin’s knees fell to the floor.
She grew up being looked upon as the successor to the assassin group and the pinnacle master but she could not help but be helpless at this moment.
When she finally got down on her knees her ancestor touched her forehead with his finger and said
“okay. “This is the eye level between you and me.”
-closely!
Her eyes filled with tears as she bit her lip.
It was the first time in my life that I felt this kind of humiliation.
Moreover the reality of not being able to resist in any way made him even more miserable.
Seeing her suffering Gochan chuckled and was happy.
‘Hehehe.’
It was just the beginning.
The thought of her bringing him down to her lowest level was so arousing that he couldn’t bear it.
Looking at Go Chan who was enjoying herself with her face filled with madness Wi Maeng-cheon who had possessed Ho Jong-hyuk’s body clicked her tongue inside her.
‘Is that why you saved him?’
I just thought she was a pervert but she turned out to be much more vicious than she looked.
* * *
The manor of Wi So-yeon the youngest disciple of the head of Cheonjihoe.
The atmosphere in the parish conference room was somewhat somber.
As expected they fainted and woke up a long time later and had no face to see the face of their lord Wei Xiaoyeon.
Because of just one person all of her confidants were broken.
This was a major event that no one expected.
While everyone was silent a man stood up and immediately knelt on the floor.
-thud!
“Woo Daeju?”
“Ooh brother!”
Yang Il the fire chief of Chohae Geombang and Ki Ok-ryeon Yangamgokju’s first wife were perplexed by his attitude and called him out as if to dissuade him.
Nevertheless Woo Ho-rang lowered his head and apologized.
“…I apologize. “It all happened because of me.”
Woo Ho-rang who came to his senses thought it was all his fault.
It seems that this happened when he could not control his feelings of love and challenged Mok Gyeong-un to a fight.
‘I never thought he would come out like this.’
I thought it would just end up being just the two of us.
However I never expected that Mu Kyung-un would come into the manor of Wei Shao-yeon Hui Zhou’s youngest disciple and defeat all of his henchmen and not just any other person.
-Wow!
‘Mokgyeongun…’
Thinking about that guy makes me shiver.
But he felt that right now he had to take responsibility for what happened because of him.
-Sigh!
Wu Tiger took out the dagger from his chest and placed it in front of him.
Then he held out his left hand and said.
“I have damaged the young lady’s face so I will first pay with my left hand.”
“Brother! “No!”
“Awesome!”
Other henchmen tried to stop him.
However trying to enforce his will Wu Tiger took out his dagger and tried to cut off his left wrist.
It was that moment.
-Chaenggang!
Before it could touch his wrist Wu Horang’s dagger bounced and became embedded in the wall.
With that his jewelry beads fell to the floor right in front of Woohorang.
Wu Tiger raised his head and looked in the direction from which his jewelry beads flew.
“miss….”
The person who threw this was none other than Wi So-yeon.
Wei So-yeon looked at Woo Ho-rang with cold eyes and said.
“I cannot forgive taking responsibility in this way.”
“but….”
“stop!”
Woo Tiger shut his mouth at Wi So-yeon’s small urging.
The other henchmen seemed to have sensed her anger and also quietly closed their mouths.
It was the first time they had ever seen her this angry.
Of course I couldn’t help but notice.
Then Soyeon above opened her mouth.
“This incident made me realize how poorly I managed hierarchy.”
“no. “How can you…”
“Close your mouth.”
Ki Ok-ryeon was embarrassed and closed her mouth.
She was usually the one who treated everyone when they were gathered to cheer up her subordinates.
But this is the first time I’ve seen it come out so decisively.
“Now that I have realized that an organization without hierarchy has no future I will work to correct the system in the future. Do you understand?”
“….”
“There is no answer.”
-Sssshhhh!
As soon as those words were out a cold energy came out of Wei Soyeon.
The energy was so cold that in an instant cold flowed through the entire room and steam came out of everyone’s mouths.
In response to this Firefighter Yang-il of Geombang knelt down on one knee and clasped his hands together and shouted.
“I’ll keep that in mind!”
Then the others took the same stance and repeated.
“I’ll keep that in mind!”
“joy.”
Looking down at them like this Soyeon above snorted softly and withdrew her energy.
As she withdrew her energy Wu Tiger looked at her with somewhat surprised eyes.
‘You handle your vagina so freely?’
what?
I knew that she possessed a vast amount of true energy because of her special constitution.
However her energy became much more stable and stronger than before.
Could it be that she achieved enlightenment in the meantime?
When I looked closely I noticed that her face was radiant and even more beautiful than before.
I was puzzled but Wi So-yeon said.
“And here I profess two things. “No one can challenge this decision.”
“I’ll keep that in mind!”
Everyone responded to her words at the same time.
It definitely worked because she got her lines right.
True to his words she seems to have been too pampered by her subordinates not performing her role properly as a lord.
This incident definitely made her decide to change.
Wi So-yeon who had made up her mind opened her mouth.
“It’s about the first tree tillage.”
‘ah….’
At her words everyone’s eyes lit up at the same time.
Even so they believed that Mok Gyeong-un was the culprit for this situation.
Of course I thought she wouldn’t just ignore this incident.
He was now no different from an enemy to the Wei Soyeon faction.
‘I’ll pay you back.’
I silently waited for her command.
She was prepared to challenge Mok Gyeong-un again at any time as long as she failed.
however
“From now on when you deal with Mo Gyeong-un treat him like I do.”
‘!?’
Everyone looked at her in surprise at the unexpected name that came out of Soyeon’s mouth above her.
