#518 Everything is meant to be.
* * *
A sound is heard.
Deep, heavy and calm.
between repetitive sounds.
he was concentrating
There was no time to rest.
I had a lot of work to do because I wasted time on trivial matters.
“I have something to report to you.”
That is why the sudden arrival of a woman dressed like a scholar and wearing glasses was not pleasant.
But he did not drive the woman away.
I just asked quietly.
“What is going on?”
“The work you instructed has been completed.”
A moment to stop.
he murmured softly.
“It was earlier than expected.”
“As this was a special order from the master, it is thanks to everyone working hard day and night in unison.”
“is it.”
He nodded.
And after thinking for a while, he opened his mouth.
“Give bonuses and vacations to those who participated in this task.”
“I don’t know if it’s a vacation, but I don’t think I need a bonus as I’ve already paid them several times the normal amount…” “The
work they did deserves a bonus.”
“…All right.”
reward and punishment should be fair.
After the woman who bowed her head to him who spoke calmly left the seat.
He closed his eyes.
After thinking for a while, I locked the door and turned the decorations on one side of the room.
Kurleung.
soft open walls.
Follow the stairs inside it.
At the end of a slow walk.
Arriving at the secret room in the basement, he reached out his hand.
To put on the cloak hanging from the wall, pull the hood deep into the head, and place the two cards on the table to activate.
Squeak.
[What’s going on…?]
And after a while.
The two cards appearing as if they were turned over are two visions that are as vivid as real ones, even if they do not have any substance.
At the same time, to the Wanderer who asked for a business with a face with clear dark circles.
3rd in the Liberation Brigade.
Magician answered quietly.
“This side is ready.”
[…just now?]
“It’s rather early than planned.”
[That’s your plan… If you’ve given it this much time and it’s still not ready, that’s more of a problem.]
“I apologize for not hurrying.”
[…]
I accepted the accusations.
What do you not like so much?
Rather, he suddenly spoke to Wanderer, who frowned even more.
“I heard you lost one sword master.”
[Are you going to hold me accountable?]
“No, I have no intention of doing that.”
He shook his head.
The sword master’s power is unparalleled.
It was difficult even for him, who used the power of the monarch and even used the Descent of the Constellation and Seven Arcs.
No matter how much she is the Command Lord, it was expected from the beginning that controlling them alone would be irrational.
“Instead, I want to make sure this won’t happen in the future.”
[…]
So it must have been.
Wanderer, who would have declared that there was no problem before, kept silent.
Because she realized it too.
Sword Master is a double-edged sword.
They are bombs that have absolute power but can ruin everything if not properly controlled.
But that’s for a while.
Wanderer soon bit his lip and said.
[…No need to worry. It won’t happen again.]
“Are you sure?”
[Yes.]
As if he hesitated.
After answering sternly, she continued with a bleak voice.
[Besides the two who returned, the others have already been retrieved, and we have prepared a way to control them more reliably… so there is no problem with the plan.
]
Magician eventually agreed.
Due to the personality of a wanderer who hates reckless things out of pride, there was no way he could have made such an assertion without a really clear preparation.
So he looked away for the last time.
After the illusion appeared,
I just silently watched them.
After confirming that the No. 1 ghost ruler, who had been silent as if he had no interest or interest, nodded slowly.
He quietly opened his mouth.
“We will start the grand plan as planned.”
* * *
Shabby alley.
Amit moved stealthily along it.
I don’t know if it’s normal.
It was because Amit had something too precious to show off to others.
That’s why it’s been a long time since I’ve been in the middle of a long time since I’ve been in the middle of a long time since I’ve been in the middle of a long time.
The moment you finally arrive at your destination.
Amit smiled brightly.
“Acolyte!”
Toxically dirty and smelly corner.
The brown-skinned monk, who had been sitting cross-legged on the bare floor in meditation, opened his eyes.
And seeing Amit, a boy running with a muddy face, smiled.
“Did you come today?”
“Ehehe yes.”
what is so nice
Amit approached with a shy smile and abruptly held out what he was holding in his arms to the monk.
“Take this.”
“What is?”
“What is it? As you can see, it is an offering.”
What Amit gave.
In other words, seeing the bag full of bread, the monk made an unexpected expression.
“Where did this bread come from?”
“Don’t worry, I didn’t steal it. It’s been a while since they’ve been giving away free things like bread and rice here and there.”
“Indeed, that is fortunate.”
I heard that many people are suffering from food distribution cut off for the past few months.
It’s good that the number of people suffering has decreased due to God’s mercy.
After a brief admiration.
The monk smiled.
“Even so, food will still be scarce, so why don’t you take this bread and eat it instead of donating it to me?”
“are you okay. I already ate my fill.”
“If you do, I’ll take this one piece.”
“Is that all?”
Amit widened his eyes as he saw the monk tearing out a small piece of bread from a bag full of bread.
And he shook his head as if he couldn’t stop.
“The attendant is also really great. You haven’t eaten much in the last few days, have you?”
“Ascetic practices are asceticism.”
In the first place, he has a strong body, so he can eat only a little.
When the monk answers with a smile.
A voice was heard.
“Look at that smell. There is no such thing as a complete poop.”
Amit reflexively looked back.
And I was startled.
It wasn’t just because I saw someone appearing at the entrance of an alley where no one had been before.
Because the opponent’s appearance was not serious.
Dual pistols at the waist.
A jacket full of knives.
Even a cowboy outfit.
In this slum, where you have to be careful even if you only have one weapon, the opponent’s appearance was so vigilant that he wanted to run away.
Unlike Amit, the monk was not surprised to see the sudden appearance of the gunman.
Rather, after a round smile.
They just put their palms together and put their palms together as a courtesy.
“I waited for the death penalty.”
“Do you know someone?”
“Yes, he is someone who trained under the same master as me.”
“Is that him?”
‘…is it the approval of the abolition?’
Whether or not Amit hesitates as he alternates between a monk who is clearly an elegant ascetic and a young man who does not appear to be a monk.
The gunman scratched the back of his head.
“I don’t quite understand. Why did you come to a place like this after taking a long walk?”
“Sometimes there are things that can only be seen from the lowest level.”
“I don’t know such a Zen dialogue, priest.”
“You can think that this was the most comfortable place for me.”
“Hmm, I have a different taste.”
It’s not a bar or a brothel, I don’t know what you’re doing in a slum like this.
It was when Billy clicked his tongue.
“found!”
“You fucking bastard! Do you dare to touch our in-laws?”
“A wanderer who doesn’t even belong to the church dares to…!”
“I’ll break your neck!”
“Hehe!”
When Amit hides behind the monk in fright at the sight of dozens of great warriors, each holding a thick club.
Billy asked shyly.
“What are they?”
“These are the people I’ve come in contact with.”
“Destiny?”
“yes. I once admonished those who assaulted this child, and after that, one or two people came to visit me.”
At first, only children.
Then the youth too.
later to adults.
Every time a few people came to see me, they broke their limbs one by one, and they said that they grew like that.
Seeing the monk talking with a gentle smile, the gunman’s expression grew even more arrogant.
“Isn’t that more like a bad relationship than a relationship?”
“A bad relationship is also a relationship.”
“If you put it like that, war would be a group blind date between countries.”
“Anyway, it’s no different in that the grave remains.”
“…is it?”
Billy scratching his head.
the monk asked softly.
“But the death penalty.”
“why?”
“Can we consider the fact that the brother-in-law has come as an end to the order to be calm and wait?”
“Yes, my lady is threatening to kill me if she doesn’t come right away. That swordsman must have had a duel with Master and ended up in the goal.”
“indeed… Is that so.”
distant past.
The monk was not surprised when he heard the last word of an old alliance with which he had shared his will for a while.
After nodding his head as if he knew that, of course.
I just muttered quietly.
“If you do, then it’s time to end the relationship.”
“Su monk?”
Amit was taken aback.
This is because the monk suddenly began to stride toward the elders.
What kind of cake is this?
The moment when Amit, unable to watch the warriors wielding clubs with the momentum to break the monk’s head, closed his eyes.
『No-Ae-Mugung-Gwi
-il 無碍無窮 歸一
Dharma’s
Blade運命之刃』
Chaaaaaaa!
“Quaaaaaaagh!”
A terrible scream.
echoed in the back alley.
Amit, who inadvertently opened his eyes at the harsh sound, hardened.
The figure of a monk standing tall, unscathed, as if mocking the expectation that he would be beaten by the elders.
And all of them struggled in a puddle of blood with their arms cut off.
It made me doubt if this was real.
“With this, the bad relationship between you and me is severed.”
Rest assured that you won’t have to agonize over your sins now.
after speaking softly.
The monk turned around.
Then step on the pool of blood and come to Amit.
Amit held the dropped bread bag in his tiny hand.
“In the future, do not forget compassion and accumulate Dharma.”
“…”
“Then you, who were born with a low status inferior to that of a worm, will be able to live as a human being in the next world.”
With a very kind voice and
a truly gentle smile.
After stroking his head with his bloody hand and leaving a good word.
Seeing the back of the monk as he slowly approached Billy, the boy had no choice but to urinate and sit down.
Unlike that boy, Billy didn’t care at all about the monk covered in blood.
I just tilted my head.
“If anything, I’ll just cut my hair off. Why did you do it so halfway?”
“To give them a chance to be forgiven.”
“Forgiveness?”
“Forgiveness is something only the strong can do, so wouldn’t those who became the weak be able to be forgiven more easily for the rest of their lives?”
“I think you’re more likely to die today from excessive blood loss or being mugged?”
“If you do, that must be their karma.”
“…Oh yeah?”
If you have accumulated good karma, you will receive help from someone, and if you have accumulated bad karma, you will receive the punishment you deserve.
A monk who smiles and speaks.
Along with Sword Demon, he is considered the worst sword master.
A pacifist who started World War II.
Swordsman Gandhi.
Billy, who was looking at the priest, who could not understand what was inside, with strange eyes, eventually shrugged.
“Anyway, let’s leave soon after we’re done. My lady will try to rip my neck out again if I mess around.”
“Has the others already gathered?”
“No, if you include the swordsman and the nobleman, you are the sixth.”
“If you do, who is left?”
That moment.
Billy hesitated.
and come back on its own.
A bit tricky unlike the others who found it easy.
So I scratched the back of my head, thinking of the three sword masters I had put off for the last time but had to go see from now on.
“My ambassador, my sister, and my youngest sister.”
“indeed.”
the moment I heard that.
Gandhi chuckled.
And he said politely.
“I hope you come back alive.”
“…”
