Episode 278 I didn’t stop talking.
I looked at Byeokryeokmunju who was sobbing.
Why does that crazy guy cry like that? As far as I know, black swords don’t cry. I was so dumbfounded that I jumped down and approached Byeokryeokmunju.
As I squatted down and looked at Byeokryeokmunju, a bearded wild boar was glaring at me, so I slapped him on the cheek.
“why are you crying? “Are you crazy?”
I asked Mansangmunju for help.
“Why is this wild boar cub crying?”
“I don’t know either.”
Someone answered at the wall.
“Munju has given birth to a son. Lately.”
“Oh yeah?”
I grabbed Byeokryeokmunju’s shoulder.
“congratulations. “It’s good news that you have a son.”
“….”
Even though I smiled, Byeokryeokmunju glared at me with his eyes wide open. I said while looking at Byeokryeokmunju carefully.
“Even if you’re an asshole who takes bribes from people who don’t have money, it doesn’t hurt even if you put your child in the eye. It’s something to celebrate. “Why are your eyes open like that?”
Byeokryeokmunju answered.
“I will accept that I lost the fight, but should I insult you by even mentioning my child?”
“insult? When did you receive a reward for thinking of someone else’s child? This is the first time I have seen Heukdo living so richly. Looking at the well-to-do people, it is clear that their wealth was not built up by taking care of other people’s circumstances. “Anyway, we’re at war, and the commander’s eyes are so bright…”
This time, he hit Byeokryeokmunju in the face emotionally. Byeokryeokmunju, who fell down with a thud, did not wake up as if he had fainted.
“Children are children, and you should live your own life.”
He got up and spoke to Mansangmunju.
“We’ll take you to the Murim Alliance later, so arrest him. “If there is no crime, if there is a warning, you will be in prison. If it is serious, you will be left behind, right?”
“yes.”
“After the Murim Alliance leaves the temple, we will deal with it fairly. I don’t judge. “Until then, we’ll have to lock it up.”
“All right.”
I said while looking around.
“We decided that the Mansangmun would absorb the Byeokryeokmun. If there is anyone who needs to be beaten further, tell me now. I’m busy now because I have to go to Cheonungbang. Has anyone here heard of Daenakchal’s reputation?”
All executives of Mansangmun raised their hands.
“I’ve heard of it.”
“Well, I’m not trying to talk about Daenachal, but Daenachal had disciples. Some people died after being beaten by me, and some people survived and are going to get married soon. You too, do not dance on the border between life and death. Now that I’m here, Makseong’s black sword must make a new plan.”
At this time, a man in his thirties walked out from Byeokryeokmun, holding a sword, and introduced himself to me.
“My name is Seol Gyeong-deok, head of the Byeokryeokmun division.”
When I looked at him, I was embarrassed to see that this was someone who liked to get out there.
“What’s going on with division owner Gyeongdeok?”
“If you are going to attack Cheon Eung-bang, I will bring my troops and join you.”
“For what purpose? Are you trying to help? Or is there another reason? Even if I go alone, I can kill Cheon Eung-bang, so why intervene? “Do I look like an asshole?”
“no.”
“then? “I thought this was the right time to take a seat?”
“no. If we transport Lord Moon to the Murim Alliance, if we are lucky, he will be imprisoned in prison. Since he recently had a son, please consider the circumstances…” “
Circumstances? If you have been paying attention to the merchants’ circumstances and collected repayments, I will consider it. I don’t know, but Mansangmunju probably knows something. how is it?”
Mansangmunju answered with a hardened expression.
“It was merciless.”
“Ruthless… That’s right. Please look at the situation of a person who is merciless to others. I can’t watch it. In fact, the fact that I didn’t kill him meant that I had already taken enough of the situation. What did you not kill? Do I look like a monk with long hair?”
The division head spoke as if he had made up his mind.
“It doesn’t matter, Master Moon. I’m not asking you to look at it. “This is someone I would have fought someday.”
“Sector owner.”
“yes.”
“I’m a little sad about that decision. If you go to Cheoneungbang and make a fuss, you will die on the spot. “There is no next time.”
The division head responded.
“I’ve already seen Moonju’s skills, so unless I’m an idiot, there’s no need to make a fuss.”
“What do you think of Mansangmunju?”
Mansangmunju thought for a moment and answered.
“You will do that. The black sword of the Makseong is not that bad. “The head of the division has always been a strong man.”
I looked up and down the sector stocks.
“…Do whatever you want. Take the troops and let us all go and have a look. “Before dawn, it will be decided who will die.”
Seol Gyeong-deok, the head of the division, took power over me.
“I will.”
Mansangmunju asked.
“Byeokryeokmunju is at risk of escaping. Shall we take him in?”
“Oh, that’s annoying. “Just cut off one hair follicle.”
“yes?”
I hit Man Sang-munju’s surprised shoulder and then went outside.
“Just kidding…let’s drag it. “Byeokryeokmun brought me.”
Mansangmun’s executives mixed with Byeokryeokmun’s troops and moved toward Cheonungbang.
It was a strange combination.
Since we were still at a disadvantage, it felt like we were being dragged to Cheonungbang by Byeokryeomun.
* * *
The door to Cheoneungbang was wide open.
I automatically opened my mouth.
“Wow what? “I was preparing.”
Lights are lit everywhere as if preparing for a field battle. Even inside Cheoneungbang, it felt like life was already burning like a bonfire. While soldiers holding military flags were standing on the wall, someone’s voice was heard.
“…Welcome back.”
To me, it seemed like Zhuge Liang’s bluff to open the gates to Sima Yi. Because it doesn’t matter whether you open the door or not.
A man who appeared to be an executive appeared on the wall and spoke.
“I thought it was real. “Is Hao Wen-ju there?”
“grow.”
The executive looked at me and said.
“Why did you suddenly get involved in the black sword fight?”
“If you say bullshit, go to the Murim Alliance and say it. After you slapped the messenger, tell him to come out of the ark. “The messenger is the grandson next door to my cousin and aunt.”
Seol Gyeong-deok came up next to me and said.
“Lord Moon, I will take the lead and break through.”
“Don’t come forward. “Anyway, is my reputation like this?”
If the sect leader or Cheonak student had come, the entire Makseong Black Island would have kneeled down and prepared to be slapped, but I am such a poor person. Thinking that it wasn’t enough, I wrapped a damn bottle around my right hand and my left hand.
“….”
Suddenly, a strange roaring sound came from my hand, and not only Byeokryeokmun but also Mansangmunju stepped back in horror. After seeing the strange light spreading, there was no one around me.
The cold energy of the full moon was compressed and the brain energy of Baekjeon Tendangong was wrapped around it.
It is my mercy not to use the Sun and Moon Light Spring. An unidentified combination of Wolyeong Mujeonggong and Baekjeon Tendangong was created, but the name was not yet decided.
It was an unsettling white color that did not fit into being pure white. It looks like a disgusting white loach clinging to a white sphere.
I was planning to drop it first, check the effect, and then give it a name.
A combination of ice ball and brain power?
It is a season that has never existed in the world.
A huge amount of power was consumed, as if one-third of my internal power had been knocked out in one go.
It seemed like it would disappear into dust if I threw it at a person, so I threw it far away to Cheon Eung-bang’s base. The white, violently rotating sphere flew away, brightening the night sky like starlight, and exploded at Cheon Eung-bang’s main base.
Quaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
Still, the roar was weaker than that of Sun and Moon Gwangcheon. However, the attractions were no less than the Sun and Moon Gwangcheon. With a roar, white rays of light shot up all over the night sky like fragments of lightning, and the people’s screams mingled very slightly and soon quieted down.
I spoke to Mansangmunju in a calm tone.
“Go in.”
“yes.”
Those who were already on the wall were hit by the air wave and flew in all directions.
Since I didn’t know exactly what happened, I followed Heukdo and entered the main gate.
As soon as I saw Cheon Eung-bang’s little pony, I was startled.
How should I express this? White lightning struck in all directions, and everything in sight was frozen.
It’s like a fucking disaster.
First of all, the executives of Mansangmun and the Byeokryeokmun members who entered first did not look inside, but kept an eye on me who came in late.
Their expressions were completely different from before.
This is the moment when I confirm that what I said was not a bluff.
I spoke to Man Sang-mun and Seol Gyeong-deok.
“Catch Cheon-eung Ark.”
“yes.”
As soon as I finished speaking, the executives and martial artists rushed to the main base of the shattered building.
I turned my back and checked the damage to the season I had made. So this scene was like a painting. It was an abstract painting depicting the harsh winter that suddenly struck on a normal spring day. Even as I was watching, the Byeokryeokmundo who came in late passed me, holding swords.
There were screams of black swords killing black swords and the sound of weapons clashing, as if there were still people inside.
I also have no intention of saving them all.
I am not a philanthropist.
The plan was to have those who were to die die and those who survived to be collected by Lord Mansangmun. At the entrance, those who supported Byeokryeokmunju came in at the end. As soon as Byeokryeokmunju woke up, his facial expression changed as if he had seen the horrors of Cheoneungbang.
I met Byeokryeokmunju, who was unconscious.
“Welcome. Byeokryeokmunju. “You didn’t know it would turn out like this, did you?”
“….”
“They say the Ark of Cheon-eung slapped the messenger. This is a slap price. No matter how much of an enemy you are, it is not polite on the battlefield to touch a messenger. is not it?”
Byeokryeokmunju was unable to say anything.
The wall on the second floor of the building was shattered, and someone came flying out, spouting blood, and rolled next to me. I felt like I still had some strength left, so I kicked him in the face with a light kick.
Byeokryeokmunju looked like he was so shocked that he couldn’t even think of running away. He was an ecstatic person. When I looked back, I saw a middle-aged man swinging his sword fiercely at the gap in the wall, but he was hit by a kick and fell. The middle-aged man twisted his body in the air and barely landed properly, but as soon as he turned around, he ran towards me.
“….”
He shouted as soon as Mansangmunju appeared from the hole in the wall.
“It’s Cheon-eung Ark!”
As Cheon-eung Ark, which I had never seen before, approached me, I raised my sword. As soon as I saw it, I said hello.
“Ark, I am Lord Hao Wen. “Why did you slap the messenger?”
“….”
Cheon-eung Bangju took a stance to cut me down, but did not move as he was deep in other thoughts. It was easy to see what the other thoughts were.
“If I swing that, will I die?”
Cheon-eung Bangju held out his sword in front of me. The tip of the sword was trembling.
I lightly held the trembling sword between my thumb and index finger. The white cold flowed along the blade and advanced towards the Heavenly Ark.
Cheon-eung Ark raised his eyes and injected his energy to resist the Wolyeong martial arts attack. He could have just declared surrender, but it was also a manly response.
Suddenly, I was engaged in a very standard internal energy battle with Cheon-eung Bangju, and I injected internal energy into the sword, which had frozen and lost its elasticity, and flicked my wrist as if cutting it.
The sword was broken in two.
Only then, after dropping the broken sword on the floor, did Cheon-eung Bang sigh, look around, and say:
“…stop. lost.”
I looked at Byeokryeokmunju and also looked at Mansangmunju who came down from this floor.
“Heads, let me see.”
I sang the Byeokryeokmunju and Mansangmunju with hand gestures and then sat down on the floor. The bound Byeokryeokmunju sat on the left and the Mansangmunju sat on the right.
Cheon-eung Ark, who was looking at me, approached me without saying a word and sat down.
While I was taking a moment to decide what to say, Seol Gyeong-deok, the division owner of Byeokryeokmun, naturally joined me and sat down nearby.
I told Seol Gyeong-deok.
“You’re out.”
“yes.”
Seol Gyeong-deok stood up and approached his subordinates while making a noise. I gathered the two gatekeepers and the ark together and spoke.
“…Where are you going to save the three people?”
Only Mansangmunju answered.
“That’s right.”
“When we asked to meet at Suwoljeong, I would have liked to have gathered, but what the hell is going on at night? This idiot, Cheoneung Bangju, a master of magic. Perhaps there is a higher power looking after me. Tell me now. “Don’t make it difficult to find out later.”
Cheon-eung Ark answered.
“No.”
Byeokryeokmunju also shook his head.
“I don’t have one either.”
I looked around at the three people and brought up the story that should have been shared at Suwoljeong Pavilion.
“The Black Island of Makseong is led by Mansangmunju Sun Woo-jin.”
“yes.”
The two people had no answer. I continued what I was saying.
“Mansangmunju must not collect repayment within the recovery period. Announce it to those around you. “Send a messenger to the Murim Alliance to inform them of this incident, and then ask them to send an inspector.”
“All right.”
“Byeokryeokmunju Cheoneung Ark. If you don’t like my decision, commit suicide here. It’s a hassle for me to fix it too. How will the survivors try to resolve this? Don’t worry and ascend to heaven. A man has pride. How am I going to survive like this from now on? It seems like everyone is ten years older than me. If you lose like this, you’ll be so embarrassed that you won’t be able to survive. “If it were me, I would have crashed into the wall and died.”
“….”
There are people who suddenly lose their temper when they are hungry, and I am like that. I sat the three of them down, folded our arms, and repeated what we had said and repeated as if we were chanting.
“Why did you slap the messenger?”
“…that is.”
After slapping Cheon-eung Bang-ju on the cheek, I continued speaking.
“Let me explain.”
I listened to the stories of the three people, the secret behind the founding of Makseong Heukdo, the first ark of Cheon Eung-bang, the founder of the Byeokryeokmun Gate, and the stories of the three people’s hometowns. As dawn broke, the subordinates around me were lying around dozing off, but my story was not over yet. In the meantime, Cheon-eung Bang-ju and Byeok-ryeok Mun-ju often got slapped by me. I watched the dawn with three people with open eyes and continued talking.
“…So keep going. “What did you do to collect so much in repayment?”
As the day grew brighter, Byeokryeokmunju cautiously asked me.
“Lord Moon, but please trap me…”
I took out the flash dagger and cut off the trap. Slowly, the three people seemed to relax and their eyelids became heavy.
I said as I planted the flash dagger on the ground.
“Are they crazy? If you want to die, close your eyes. Keep talking.”
I don’t know what the three people were thinking, but I listened to their stories with a serious attitude and greeted them as the sun rose in the sky.
I listened to the stories of the black men.
I didn’t stop talking because I didn’t think these three people knew that I was trying all night long to avoid killing them.
