Episode 191Back to hometown (3)
âUndecided?â
âyes.â
Paeyul stroked his chin in response to Sajilâs polite response.
âThat means we will be staying in the area for the time being.â
âYes, Master.â
âhmm.â
Lose rate lost in deep thought.
Cheokgang asked cautiously.
âUm⦠Sasook.â
âWhy are you doing that?â
âCan I ask you one thing?â
This guy hasnât changed.
Cheokgang was a child who was famous for his particularly aggressive personality in fortune telling. However, he was treated with respect by adults and was remembered as a dangerous person by those in charge of execution.
A guy like that entered the Mortal Army and was well-received.
A young man of that age could easily become arrogant. Nevertheless, Cheokgang remained unchanged from before.
Paeyul acknowledged that aspect of Cheokgang. If nothing else, this guy is consistent.
âAsk.â
âThe other monks have all returned to their headquarters, so how can you remain in the village?â
The corners of Paeyulâs mouth slightly turned up.
âwhy? Donât you hate seeing me just sitting around doing nothing?â
âomg! Oh no! âIâm asking because Iâm really curious.â
This is why people should not do things they have never done before. It was said as a joke, but Sajilâs face became completely contemplative.
Paeyul leaned back in his chair as if he was drowsy.
âIf we go back to the headquarters, there is nothing else to do. âItâs just a continuation of training.â
âAhâ¦â
Cheok Gang nodded, but felt puzzled inside.
He was a martial arts fanatic and a battle fanatic. He equated martial arts archery and training with breathing, and when it came to fighting, he did not care who the opponent was.
I was surprised that Sasuk would make such a statement. Because I thought he was a person who would not change until he died.
âHe must have had a change of heart that I donât know about.â
Cheok Gang opened his mouth.
âAnyway, canât you see Jang Mun-in? âIt appears that a public meeting has been held.â
âItâs obvious.â
I donât know what there is so much to discuss. To begin with, Paeyul, who disliked complicated matters, could not understand how high-ranking people handled their work.
Paeyulâs eyes were full of helplessness as he looked up at the ceiling with a drowsy face.
âAs expected, thereâs nothing particularly interesting happening in the Murim Alliance.â
I didnât really come with the intention of getting a position.
However, since there will be countless experts gathered, I thought I would be able to share a great game with them. I came here just to see that one thing.
But until now, we have never had a competitive match. There were many experts, but they all took care of themselves.
Because there is nothing good about sticking out for no reason. In the first place, they didnât come to fight, they just came with the intention of taking a place.
âBut the reason Iâm still attached to it is because I havenât been able to let go of any expectations.â
Paeyul smiled bitterly.
âThis is also a heart demon.â
Is Simma a big deal? If you become lethargic for no reason and say things that are not like you, thatâs a sim.
âThat wonât work. âIâll have to leave soon.â
Lately, the practice I liked has been sporadic. I canât allow the skills Iâve built up to diminish, so I guess Iâll just maintain them.
Now I donât even know how to improve my martial arts skills. I really never imagined that a moment like this would come in my life.
It was then.
âHowdy!â
Cheok Gangâs eyes widened at the sound of a voice coming from outside the window.
âuh? âCommander?â
Paeyulâs eyes flashed.
âCommander? Yeonhojeong?â
A loud voice continued.
âIs Cheokgang there? âLet me see.â
Cheokgang stood up.
âMr. Sasook. âIâll be back for a bit.â
âokay.â
Cheok Gang hurriedly went to visit.
Paeyul, who was maintaining a languid posture, became curious and moved to the window.
âomg! âCommander!â
âsorry. âI was resting well when you called me.â
âno. But⦠your condition doesnât look very good?â
Yeon Ho-jeong touched his shoulder.
âI had a fight with my father. âI donât think I can beat it yet.â
âWith Lord Yeonga?â
âSo you said I have another father besides him?â
Paeyulâs eyes sparkled.
Yeongaju? The judges and prosecutors?
âBimura⦠Is this because they are rich?â
At that moment, Paeyul felt a strong desire to win coming from deep in his heart.
I had personally seen Paeyul, a military officer of the Yanwi, also known as the Judge, Judge, and Judge. One day, when the Yeon clan and his wife were dancing at the Murim Allianceâs inner training hall, he was also there. SÑará´h the NôvelFire.nÑt website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.
Yeonwiâs martial arts was completely different from what Paeyul pursued. At first glance, the orthodox swordsmanship, which pursues the perfection of sharp swordsmanship rather than the killing power of martial arts that maintains formality and dignity, seemed frustrating at first glance.
However, the strength of the sword hidden in that frustration was so great that it was shocking. The pressure of a thousand pounds in one sword and one sword. It was a perfect sword technique that destroyed Yeon Ho-jeongâs extremely practical martial arts skills from the root.
âand.â
Pae-yulâs eyes landed on Yeon Ho-jeong.
âThat guyâs martial arts skills were even more impressive as he disrupted Yeongajuâs iron-clad swordsmanship and used thorough killing techniques.â
It is Yeonhojeong rather than Yeonwi.
I wanted to fight Yeonwi, but I really wanted to compete with Yeonhojeong several times.
It was not simply because Yeonhojeongâs martial arts skills were practical. Watching Yeon Ho-jeong fight, I felt an overwhelming emotion that made my hands sweat for some reason.
He was a man who was born with the temperament of a fighter. However, he also had the temperament of a warrior who would do anything to kill his enemies.
âItâs just like me.â
Jeomchangâs martial arts skills are among the most practical among the nine schools.
And Paeyul was one of the people who believed in the practical martial arts to the extreme. Cheokgang was also walking that path, but at a different depth.
âI want to fight.â
The drowsiness and emptiness that had been radiating from his whole body disappeared as if washed away. Pae-yulâs eyes became hotter as he looked at Yeon Ho-jeong.
âBut for what reason⦠Ah! Please come in first. âI will treat you to a cup of tea.â
âOkay. âIâll be there soon.â
âOh yeah.â
âAnyway, are you busy?â
âNot at all.â
âThe internal injuries havenât healed yet?â
âThere is a little bit left, but I think it will be completely cured in 10 days.â
âokay?â
Yeon Ho-jeong stroked his chin.
âI guess thatâs a bit like that.â
This was a mission to minimize damage to our troops and to delve into the relationship between Yangcheon and the three religions in detail.
However, no matter how confident you are, there are bound to be limits to how well you can get things done. This means that you must come forward with someone you trust.
Itâs good to work with someone with outstanding skills. But more than that, your hands and feet must match. This mission was such a mission.
âBesides, you shouldnât be caught using white sword martial arts.â
Of course, as there are all kinds of groups gathered in the Heukdo martial arts world, there are also many people who use the martial arts of the right faction.
Still, itâs best not to use it if possible. This is because there is no benefit in drawing attention to something for no reason.
From that perspective, Cheokgang was perfect. This is because the martial arts of the Jeomchang school were particularly practical, and if modified slightly, they would look like the martial arts of the Sa school.
âbut.â
Yeon Ho-jeong looked at Cheok Gangâs face.
Although he had become quite mature due to his previous missions, he still had a boyish look on his face. Unlike his rough hands, his gentle eyes are truly impressive.
âCheokgang is a guy who will jump into the sea of fire without hesitation if itâs my order. In that respect, it would be nice to be togetherâ¦â
Yeon Ho-jeong sighed inwardly.
âI guess it wonât work either.â
I thought I had to take Cheokgang with me, but when I saw his face like this, I changed my mind.
âHeâs qualified in every way, but if he makes a mistake, he could die.â
When Cheokgangâs fever rises, his field of vision narrows. Depending on the situation, it may be a wonderful advantage, but in this mission, it will act as a fatal disadvantage.
âno. âI guess I said something pointless.â
âwhy? âWhatâs going on?â
Yeon Ho-jeong smiled bitterly.
âI was given a mission. âItâs not a mission for the Death and Death Army, but a mission I won alone.â
âHuh? âWhat kind of mission is it?â
âItâs a bit dangerous. âI have to delve into the dark island.â
Cheok Gangâs eyes sparkled with curiosity.
âBlack sword?â
âokay. âItâs a solo mission, but weâre recruiting people to join us, but as expected, you wonât be able to do it.â
âwhy? why? Am I okay? Internal injuries can be repaired within five days if you pay more attention, right? âIs it true?â
Yeon Ho-jeong stroked Cheok Gangâs head.
Cheokgang made a noise like a crow.
âThere is something more important than martial arts. âIâm not doing this because youâre lacking in skills, so thereâs nothing to hurt your pride.â
Cheokang sticks out his mouth unevenly.
âIf thatâs the case, why did you come all the way here?â
âUgh, thatâs right.â
Yeon Ho-jeong tapped his shoulder.
âAnyway, Iâm resting for a while. âDonât forget to practice.â
Yeon Ho-jeong, who was about to turn around, suddenly looked at the window on the second floor of Cheok Gangâs residence. Paeyul was looking down at him there.
Yeon Ho-jeong bowed his head without saying a word. He took his own example from his senior.
It was then.
Paralarak!
In an instant, Paeyul jumped out of the window and landed in front of the gate.
There was a look of puzzlement on Yeon Ho-jeongâs face.
âSeniors?â
Itâs different from when I saw it at the Murimmaeng gate. Knowing how to distinguish between construction and construction.
Paeyul asked in a calm voice.
âYou received a mission?â
âThatâs right.â
âIt wouldnât be an ordinary mission for someone as dangerous as you.â
âItâs very dangerous.â
âWhat mission?â
Yeon Ho-jeong quenched his appetite.
âsorry. âI canât tell you.â
This is a completely public matter. No matter how senior he was at Moorim, he couldnât readily tell me about public affairs.
âis it.â
Paeyul nodded.
âAnyway, I guess the reason you came to Kang was because you thought that guy would be of some help, right?â
âYes, but.â
A look of puzzlement appeared on Yeon Ho-jeongâs face. I wondered why the man, whom I had only met once and had never been friends with, kept doing this.
Paeyul spoke directly.
âI donât know what that mission is, but I want to join it.â
âyes?â
âwhy? âDo you think Iâm not good enough?â
Why is this guy like this all of a sudden?
Yeon Ho-jeong suppressed the rising questions and answered.
âThatâs right.â
Paeyulâs eyebrows twitched.
âIn what part? âI donât think you want to say that your skills are lacking.â
âIs that possible? However, this mission requires many factors other than skill. âWhen I think about it that way, I donât think you are suitable for this mission.â
âI want to hear why.â
âThere is a separate person in command of this mission, but I am the one in charge of the actual work. And we need someone who can respond immediately to orders given.â
Yeon Ho-jeong smiled bitterly.
âSenior, would you be able to jump into danger without even looking back at the order of a very young junior?â
Paeyul had no answer.
Yeon Ho-jeong lowered his head.
âIâll see you later. then.â
He passed by Paeyul and opened the front door.
It was then.
âIt hurts your pride to listen to orders from a distant junior, even if you are performing an official duty.â
ââ¦?â
âBut if itâs someone who beats me, itâs a different story.â
Yeon Ho-jeong paused for a moment.
Crumbling. Crumbling.
A wild energy wave was rising from behind, like a wild beast.
âWhen it comes to winning, there is no one as clean as me. If you defeat me, I will follow your orders without hesitation, at least for this mission. âIf you want to die, you can actually die instead of just pretending to die.â
ââ¦!!â
âWhat do you think? Would you like to have a fight with me?â
