Episode 1128 This is hell, this place. (3)
Deep dawn.
It was already dark in most of the palaces, but the residence of Hu Ga-myeong, the military leader of Sapaeryeon, was still brightly lit.
Hu Jiaming, who had been sitting at a large desk looking at documents, rubbed his puffy eyes and leaned back in his chair.
‘It’s not easy.’
He too is unmanned. It is difficult for most things to tire him out. However, the vigil that had already lasted for nearly ten days was enough to tire even the warrior.
Still, there was still a long way to go and I couldn’t even dare to take a break.
“…Sometimes you want too much.”
He let out a soft sigh.
I fully understand Jang Il-so’s meaning. And now I completely understand that it makes perfect sense.
The problem is that while Jang Il-so was drinking, he thought, ‘I guess we can do it this way.’ The point is that the role of the family name is none other than to realize the grand goal that was thrown out in a realistic manner.
I mean, it’s easy.
With the execution of nearly 1,000 people this time, a huge human vacuum was created within the Sapaeryun. It doesn’t matter if you die or not. However, it was a big deal that among those to be executed this time, there were several people close to the core of each sect.
The administrative vacuum created by their disappearance must be minimized and new people must be appointed to appropriate positions. At the same time, we must find out all the things that have been inefficient and lax operation in each sect and reorganize them efficiently.
Is that all? The forces that were divided into the Black Ghost and the Maninbang Surochae must be unified and coordinated.
This was a terrible task, incomparable to creating a new sect.
In the past, even during the Maninbang period, those who saw Ho Ga-myeong’s workload would click their tongues. However, now, instead of Maninbang, the Sapaeryeon, which has grown several times larger, needs to be made more efficient like the Maninbang of the past, while at the same time taking care of Jang Ilso’s misdeeds.
What kind of person would do this? Even if they brought in capable ministers from the imperial palace, they would not have been able to last a few days and would have run away.
However, Hu Jiaming endured all of this silently without saying a word.
If Cheong-myeong had known this, he might have cried and clung to Hu Ji-myeong, asking him to forget everything about the past and work together.
To put it bluntly, Ho Ga-myeong is in charge of everything from Hwasan to Cheongmyeong and Hyeon-yeong phenomenon and Unam and even the tasks that Eunha Sangdan does on his behalf.
In any case, the situation is such that Ho Ji-myeong has no choice but to remain alone and do his work even in the wee hours of the morning when Jang Il-so, who gave instructions with appropriate hand gestures, has fallen into a deep sleep.
Sapaeryeon was a place that could not exist without a market place, and at the same time, it was a place that could not move without a household name.
‘see.’
Hu Jiaming stretched out his hand and dragged in front of me the report that came from Haomen a moment ago.
Even while reorganizing the system, information must not be lost. Information is the most precious thing. And the information provided to Jang Il-so is even more important.
One of Ho Ga-myeong’s duties was to first receive and classify information that could not be entrusted to others, and then upload only the key points to Jang Il-so.
“It’s an ice palace in a beast palace….”
Moreover, the report that has just been posted is about none other than that Cheon Woo-maeng. Information related to the recent movements of Cheonwoomaeng is classified as special even within the Sapaeryeon.
“What on earth are you trying to do by calling all these guys?”
Hu Jiaming frowned and muttered.
This is not very efficient. It’s not like there’s going to be a war right away, right? However, if you bring that many people to Yangtze, a huge amount of money is spent just to feed and put them to sleep.
Moreover, when people with different tendencies are brought together, conflicts and accidents inevitably occur. Isn’t Sapaeryun also struggling with that problem and shedding countless blood right now?
But you cause conflict by doing something you don’t have to do? This is foolish no matter who sees it.
“Damn it…”
A frustrated sigh escaped Hu Jiaming’s mouth.
Nevertheless, there is one reason why this information cannot be dismissed as foolishness. This is because the person who is doing this is Cheongmyeong.
‘Hwasan Sword Association.’
I don’t want to admit it, but the Hwasan Sword Association was something that Hu Jia-myeong couldn’t handle.
Of course, I know the nickname. This means that he is not that great of a strategist. Of course, to the average person, Hu Jiaming may be a very outstanding soldier, but in the battlefield of monsters who twist the world to their will, even Hu Jiaming is nothing more than an ordinary and foolish human being.
To that extent, the battlefield they are competing in is an area where criminals cannot enter.
Hu Jiaming habitually pressed his temples.
‘I’ve never really felt unfair about that fact.’
Because there are other areas where his strengths are demonstrated.
His value lies not in his strategy, but in his administrative power, operational ability, and execution ability that somehow makes Jang Il-so’s words come true. There are many people in the world, but there is only one person who can show how to handle things to satisfy Jang Il-so.
Ho Jiamyeong was proud of that fact.
But at times like this… I couldn’t help but feel frustrated that I couldn’t see the other side of the complex fight going on between them. okay. Only in this case.
“…That’s annoying.”
Hu Jiamyeong muttered quietly and moved the report he was holding to the left. The ones on the left were reports that had to be uploaded to Jang Il-so because he couldn’t handle them.
Recently, especially after the demonization of Hangzhou, reports related to Tianyoumaeng have been frequently moved to the left.
‘It must have been that… impressive.’
Hu Jiaming’s eyes darkened.
To put it bluntly, it was not Jang Il-so or Sapae-ryeon who solved the demon problem in Hangzhou, and especially killed the bishop of that demon religion, but the Hwasan Sword Association.
What he showed that day and the plan he implemented left an indelible mark on Hu Jiaming’s mind.
Hu Jiaming was a cold-hearted person, and the same was true for himself. He never overestimated himself. He admitted that his head couldn’t handle Cheongmyeong.
‘Still, I don’t understand.’
There is only one reason why Ho Ga-myeong carries out Jang Il-so’s unreasonable order to not leave behind those who showed signs of resistance without saying a word.
This is because we do not have time to accept and educate them all. Because the war is not that far away. Therefore, they chose to cut out the wound before it fester.
On the other hand, what about Cheonwoomaeng? What Cheongmyeong is doing now is no different from carving more wounds all over his body. What on earth were they thinking when they did this?
‘Are you sure you’re going to make a preemptive strike before the problem gets bigger?’
Ho Jiamyeong burst out laughing. Even as a passing thought, it made no sense.
“There is a reason. There is definitely a reason. But the reason is difficult for me to guess…”
Hu Jiaming chuckled softly.
he is a person People cannot understand why or how monsters fight with each other. All you have to do is guess, like licking the surface of a watermelon.
The fight between Jang Il-so and Cheongmyeong was that kind of thing for Hu Jiaming. He just hoped that he would not become someone to Jang Il-so. So I can only hope that Jang Il-so will achieve his great goal.
“I’ve been thinking about random things for a long time.”
Without any hesitation, Hu Jiaming threw the report he was holding to the side and grabbed a new report. Even thinking about random things is a luxury if you want to finish the tasks that need to be done before dawn.
However, even though he was anxious, his thoughts did not readily turn to the newly loaded report.
‘Hwasan Swordsman Association…’
Recently, when I think of him, my heart feels tight.
That person called Hwasan Swordsmen… I don’t want to admit it, but he was surprisingly similar to Jang Il-so. A being that is completely different yet similar. That meant that the Hwasan Sword Association was that great.
‘It means you have the confidence to handle it.’
A sigh escaped from Hu Jiaming’s mouth.
In any case, there must be an intention behind their actions, and that intention must have come from the confidence of the Hwasan Sword Association.
‘But we will be the ones who are right in the end, Hwasan Sword Association.’
Ho Jiamyeong looked in the direction where Kangbuk was and bit his lip slightly. And soon I started focusing on the documents again.
There was no time to rest for a moment to make Jang Il-so and his will a reality.
* * *
The house of Cheongmyeong, where the family name is kept on guard, trying to interpret it.
Likewise, Cheongmyeong, sitting at a large desk, was wiping his rough face and pulling out his hair.
At that time, the door suddenly flew open.
“Cheongmyeongaaaa!”
Cheongmyeong looked at the person who rushed in with half his soul gone. Cheongmyeong looked at Baekcheon’s face and muttered in a dying voice.
“Why… again…”
“There was a fight again!”
“….”
“Dangga and Namgung are fighting!”
“…why?”
No, what kind of combination is that?
“I don’t know! “While eating, they suddenly started snapping and fighting?”
“…dry appropriately.”
“You pulled out a knife?”
“….”
“Try something! “The whole building looks like it’s blown up.”
“Uh…”
The moment Cheongmyeong was about to say something, he pushed Baekcheon away and popped his head into the jogeol.
“Cheongmyeong! “Nokrim and my kids got into a fight?”
“…Then stop it.”
“No, the dormitories are fighting too, so they won’t listen to me trying to stop them! …uh? Baekcheon Sasuk! Why are you here? “Now is not the time to do this, we need to stop the dormitories.”
“You do it! “I have to stop the party with Namgoong now!”
“No, they are strangers! “Are you saying our kids are beating up the Nokrim kids like they’re catching rats?”
“It doesn’t matter if my kids get beat up. “It’s not even right.”
“uh?”
Jo Geol muttered absentmindedly, “Oh my gosh.”
“That’s what I heard? “Why did I run?”
“….”
Half of the remaining soul of Cheongmyeong disappeared again.
Why is that okay? You crazy bastards.
But his suffering is not over yet.
“Sahyeouuuuuuu!”
Cheongmyeong muttered blankly as he looked at Tang Soso, whose face was next to Jo Geol.
“…why? Fighting with Ice Palace and Beast Palace?”
“no! “That’s not it!”
“Then what?”
“The beasts brought from the Beast Palace ran out of the warehouse and attacked a private house!”
“…Why are you just watching that? “I have to catch it!”
“I don’t have enough hands! “The other executioners are fighting with Nokrim right now.”
“What about the Beast Palace?”
“I’m fighting with Bingung right now.”
“uh?”
Qingming looked at Tang Xiaoxiao with blank eyes.
“You said you wouldn’t fight…?”
“That meant it wasn’t my business. “Whether they fight among themselves or not, that’s for me to know.”
“….”
“It looks like he escaped because he was so busy fighting that he didn’t feed him on time? “I think it will be difficult to subdue the remaining people alone, but can I kill a couple of them as an example?”
The melted Cheongmyeong slumped down on the chair.
“Hey, how do you do this?”
“There’s still fighting going on right now?”
“hey. Do you think it was wrong to let him rest? “Since they don’t spar officially, they still have enough energy to fight among themselves?”
Cheongmyeong, who burst out laughing at the voice that repeatedly pierced his ears, looked blankly at the ceiling and muttered.
“Hey.”
“huh. how will we do it?”
“All….”
“All?”
“I hope everything goes away.”
“….”
“You bastards….”
A single tear flowed from the corner of Cheongmyeong’s eyes.
Unity? I fell asleep saying something like harmony.
Oh my, long sentence.
This is hell, this is here. Oh my gosh.
