Absolute Regression Chapter 283

Episode 283 Whose seat is this?

Moonlight fell on the safe house of the Heavenly Demon Church.

Hyeolcheon Doma had planted the Myeolcheon Daedo in the yard and was leaning against it, drinking. After all, alcohol tastes best when you drink it while leaning against the Great Sword of Death.

At that ti, a welco voice was heard from behind.

“I always had a book in my hand, so how can I have a drink today?”

A smile appeared on the lips of Hyeolcheondoma, who was drinking.

Geommugeuk sat next to him. At first, we always sat across from each other, but now it felt more comfortable to sit next to him.

“Please give a drink too.”

Geommugeuk drank the alcohol given to him by Hyeolcheondoma.

“Okay, that’s good.”

“You must be busy there, right?”

“No matter how busy you are, you have to see the people you want to see. “You were bored without , right?”

“If you’re bored, you can read a book, but if you’re still bored, you can drink.”

“What about you, Master?”

“That person is practicing in the backyard.”

Since he can’t go to the late-night training group, he seems to be training alone. Now that I think about it, Sohee Cheon must be training alone. No, you might be playing around and enjoying your freedom alone.

“What are you worried about?”

You are so perceptive.

“Are you even reading Cheongi?”

“An old man should at least have so sense. why? Did the martial arts faction mobilize all their power to catch you? “You’re saying they’re going to spread the heavenly net?”

“If it were that way, I wouldn’t have to worry about it. Jump out, old man! All it takes is one word.”

When my mind becos complicated, the person I turn to is Hyeolcheondo. It’s not that I’m looking for any answers, it’s just that being with him like this makes feel at ease. When we talk like this, we often find answers.

Hyeolcheondoma poured drinks and said.

“Don’t try to be too good.”

“Do you see it that way?”

Hyeolcheondoma nodded. I seem to have beco rigid without even realizing it. Since it was related to firearms, I was really careful.

“Do you think you will die thinking that you will do better when you die? you’re welco. I should have seen that person at least once more. You could have said sothing better. And then dying is life.”

The more you learn about Hyeolcheon Doma, the more unexpected things you see.

When you first t him, would you ever have imagined that he would say things like this? Of course, there are so things that have changed since eting , but I think the reason I say this is because I read a lot of books.

“Then I’m doing well. “I ca here to see you so I wouldn’t regret it.”

Even though he was happy on the inside, Hyeolcheondoma did not forget the words he said every ti.

“I will think carefully. “You can only think of a masked person, a drunkard, a fist fighter, and a non-ard person.”

Geommugeuk smiled and looked up at the moon.

“You may not be able to see him because he is covered by this big sword, but there is always an old man in front of him.”

Hyeolcheondoma also smiled and looked up at the moon together.

“What do you think you will regret the most?”

His eyes deepened slightly. Is he reminiscing about his younger days when he could have done well with Ilhwa Geomzone? Or am I just rembering another unspeakable regret?

“I have no regrets or regrets.”

A faint smile appeared on Geommugeuk’s lips. Yes, I hope he lives a life without regrets. May it not only be a life without regrets in words, but a life without regrets in reality.

“I t Master Jinha today.”

Hearing the words of Geommugeuk, Hyeolcheondoma’s eyes beca more intense. Because I knew that Baek Cheon-gyeong was the one who held the key to this matter.

“How was it?”

“He was not an ordinary person. “It’s the sa with heart and martial arts.”

Hyeolcheondoma nodded.

“Otherwise there would be no reason for us to co all the way here.”

“I think we need to be careful no matter how we handle it.”

“It won’t be easy. “Even if you are cautious, the other person will not be cautious.”

“What do you an by that?”

Then, Hyeolcheondoma said sothing unexpected.

“If I make you my enemy, I will inevitably beco anxious and afraid.”

“It feels good to hear complints from you after a long ti, right? Please add praise! “I’m not conceited, so don’t worry.”

“You do sothing.”

Geommugeuk laughed loudly and Hyeolcheondoma also laughed along.

Two people drank alcohol.

It would be nice to just drink alcohol like this, but there was a reason why the sword dance performance ca today.

Geommugeuk took sothing out of his arms.

“Have you ever seen this?”

It was a doll brought from Baek Cheon-gyeong’s workshop.

Hyeolcheondoma shook his head.

“He’s a nasty looking guy.”

The body is perfectly chiseled, but the face is blank, so it looks even more so.

“Do you by any chance know about the Wooden Heavenly Soul Art?”

When Hyeolcheondoma heard the term Wooden Heavenly Soul Art, he was surprised. His eyes suddenly turned to the wooden doll.

“Could it be that this doll is used for that martial art?”

As expected, Hyeolcheondoma knew about the wooden form of heavenly soul art. This is because he had excellent information and insight into the various martial arts factions and martial arts in the martial arts world.

“He was learning Baek Cheon-gyeong. “This doll was also carved by him.”

“No way!”

There was a reason for Hyecheondoma’s surprise.

“The Wooden Heavenly Soul Art was a martial art of a mysterious sect called the Mokcheonga. But the Mokcheon family has already beco extinct, but the person who learned the martial arts is still alive?”

“Extinct?”

Geommugeuk knew about the Wooden Heavenly Soul Art, but did not know that their family had beco extinct.

“It went extinct a dozen years ago.”

“How did they beco extinct?”

Hyeolcheondoma shook his head.

“Little is known about him. As expected from a mysterious sect, the finale ended in secrecy.”

Baek Cheon-gyeong is a descendant of the extinct Mok-cheon family? It was a mont when an unexpected fact was revealed.

“The master of the Murim Lord’s grandson is a descendant of the extinct Mokcheon family? “It’s definitely not unusual.”

“Jinha-kun is completely unaware of that fact. “I expect that the Murim Lord probably doesn’t know either.”

“I heard that the secret art of the Mokcheon family is secret and secret, like the energy of the forest. If you had planned to hide it, you might not have known. But how did you find out?”

“Guhemagong reacted. “It seems that the shamanic origins of wood-shaped heavenly soul art originated from magic.”

Because it was an absolute magic technique that took precedence over any other magic technique, and it was a nine-fire magic technique that was at the pinnacle of magic techniques.

A descendant of an extinct mysterious sect has infiltrated the Murim Alliance? The ruler’s grandson’s master is not an ordinary person, and he even has a fire weapon behind him?

“What should I do? “Please give the answer, old man!”

No matter how harshly he tried, there was no answer that Hyeolcheondoma could give him.

“I don’t know. “Because I lived a life where I killed everything without thinking about anything else.”

Hyeolcheondoma added while tipping his glass.

“That’s why it’s difficult to kill a low-ranking person and difficult to save a high-ranking person.”

* * *

At the sa ti, Jin Ha-ryeong was eting Jin Ha-gun.

“What happened?”

Jinha hesitated to answer his younger brother’s question for a mont. It was not easy to say that the master did not consider him a disciple. So, I only conveyed part of what Geommugeuk said.

“He said he wasn’t sure yet because it was his first eting.”

Jin Ha-ryeong felt two emotions at the sa ti from her brother’s expression. Anger and hope. I was able to guess who each target was.

“Brother.”

“why?”

I wanted to tell you that I trust you. So believe in yourself. But she knows Jinha’s personality. In this situation, such words only hurt your pride and are counterproductive.

“As expected, my brother, a warrior is a warrior.”

“what do you an?”

“When a crisis cos, your eyes sparkle.”

Jinha smiled bitterly. What sparkled was my younger brother’s eyes. Even if I didn’t see the admiration, I knew what kind of eyes he would have.

“Instead, don’t try to shoulder the crisis alone. “It’s cool to do it on your own, but I think that’s bluff.”

The little boy who was crying to be carried on his back has already grown so much that he is comforting himself.

“If your brother is having a hard ti, isn’t it because his faith is diocre?”

“What do you an?”

“If you want to believe in sword dance, you have to believe it, but you can’t. How about just believing it? “You asked for help because you believed in it anyway, right?”

“And what if everything is taken away?”

“So if it’s going to be taken away, it won’t be taken away even if you don’t believe it?”

“!”

“When I watched that person in Sword Dance, I never felt like a door was closed. Since it was wide open, I felt like I couldn’t go in without permission. If the other person can open it anyway, wouldn’t it be better to get rid of the clumsy lock? Ah, I said a lot for no reason. “Then rest.”

As she was about to co out, Jinha spoke.

“thanks.”

Jin Ha-ryeong felt that her brother was growing. It doesn’t make you angry or hurt your pride. If it had been before… well, if it had been then, I wouldn’t have been in the mood to say sothing like this.

Jin Ha-ryeong pretended as if he was holding a ball in his heart that was much bigger than that, just as Jin Ha-gun had done before when he compared himself to Geommugeuk.

“My brother is such a big person to !”

* * *

The next day, I visited Baek Cheon-gyeong.

He wasn’t surprised at all, as if he had expected my visit.

“You are free.”

After learning that he was a descendant of the extinct Mokcheon family, I felt a different way from when I saw him yesterday.

Baek Cheon-gyeong, what are you doing here?

Even if the question is the sa, the feeling is different. And you won’t get an answer to this question from him. Last night, after leaving Hyeolcheondoma’s residence, I imdiately sent an urgent e-mail to Gao Yue. It was a letter telling them to work together with Tongcheongak to find out all the information related to Mokcheonga and send it to them. The answer will co from Gowol.

“Why would you be busy, let alone a war with you?”

“Do you have ti to see ? “You must be busy eting Ha-ryeong, right?”

“Daeju Jin is using evil and blocking it. He said he could never et his younger brother until he got permission from his master. “The mont you co in contact with her, there will be war.”

“It seems scary that a war would break out while you are running around the Murim Alliance as the leader of a demonic cult.”

“I wasn’t afraid of that obvious threat. “You understand Jin Dae-ju, who is trying to protect his younger sister, as a man like him.”

Baek Cheon-gyeong turned around and entered. The fact that I didn’t close the door ant that I had to co inside, so I went in and complained for no reason.

“Even so, it shouldn’t be like this. “Of course, it was his younger brother who invited him.”

Baek Cheon-gyeong sat down, pretending not to hear, and started cutting wood. Since I ca, he has only been showing cutting wood.

But now I know. How scary this mont is. Because he creates minions every ti we et.

he asked as he was carving wood.

“Would you go back if I told you not to et ?”

I wandered around the workshop and asked as if it was no big deal.

“Are you going to do that?”

I don’t think so. He will try to use sohow to benefit himself.

“of course. “You must accept the disciple’s will.”

“It seems like you care a lot about your students.”

Baek Cheon-gyeong neither confird nor denied. What does he think of Jinha deep in his heart? Are you trying to use it to your heart’s content and then throw it away? Or do you have the heart to consider yourself a true disciple?

“I won’t back down until you let et her. “Because I’m the type of person who would do it again.”

At the sa ti, he lifted up the cloth covering the decoration table. The positions of the dolls had changed again from yesterday.

All the dolls were standing in a circle, forming a formation surrounding soone. The sight of them pulling out their weapons and attacking them was clearly an attempt to attack the opponent.

But there was actually no doll at the center.

“Whose seat is this?”

“It will depend on how you co out. “You can stand, or Hagun can stand.”

“Why are you leaving out?”

Baek Cheon-gyeong raised his head and stared at .

“Didn’t you say that yesterday? “You didn’t co to kill .”

“That’s right. It did.”

“Then there’s a good chance it will be you.”

I took the doll out of my arms. It was the faceless doll I took yesterday.

“Or maybe it’s this person.”

He probably already knew what I had taken, so he didn’t ntion it.

“I want to carve this doll’s face.”

But he reacted imdiately to these words. Baek Cheon-gyeong looked at and asked.

“Who are you going to engrave?”

“You are the one who created this in the first place, so you know who it is.”

His and my gaze beca intertwined in the air.

“He could be anyone.”

“Could you teach how to carve? “I will try to finish it.”

He started chopping wood again as if it wasn’t worth answering.

Crunchy.

I put the faceless doll back in my arms.

Then I took another carving knife and wood from the workbench and imitated what he did.

“Isn’t this carving knife ultimately a knife? “It’s because I’m an expert at using knives.”

I made it roughly the way he did.

Can he move what I made? I guess so? After all, this too is made of wood. Or, since he didn’t make it himself, it might not work as per his commands.

“This is harder than it looks.”

I carved the doll like that for a while. When a roughly human shape was created, it appeared to him.

“What do you think? Still, doesn’t it seem quite plausible?”

It seems like Baek Cheon-gyeong can’t understand like this.

“What is your real purpose?”

“It is to win Soje Jin’s heart.”

He was skeptical. If you believe it, you won’t believe it, and if you don’t believe it, you’ll wonder why it’s like this.

“If you allow to et her, I will repay you.”

“pay?”

“If there is sothing coming, shouldn’t there also be sothing going?”

“I don’t want to accept Mine’s things even if I pay a thousand gold.”

“What if I give you sothing more important than a thousand gold?”

Curiosity flashed across Baek Cheon-gyeong’s face.

“For example, what if it’s Cheonhwamun?”

Surprise passed through Baek Cheon-gyeong’s eyes, as if the words had been unexpected.

“I know that you connected Lord Tianhe Wen and Lord Jin. Why did you move for Cheonhwamunju?”

I ntioned Cheonhwamun at an unexpected ti and watched his reaction.

“I was just trying to save Lord Cheonhwamun’s son from your clutches.”

“You must have known that his son was a villain, right? “Aren’t you a political sect?”

“Good and evil are relative concepts. “Honestly, aren’t you the more evil person?”

“That’s right. I’m sure it’s relative. “I feel like you are more evil than .”

A faint smile appeared on his lips. It felt like a sneer of denial and a laugh of approval.

After the conversation up to this point, Baek Cheon-gyeong’s gaze turned back to the wooden doll he was carving.

Crunchy.

He was creating endless minions. What are you going to use all those dolls for? What are you going to do?

“I will co back to learn again tomorrow.”

* * *

After Geommugeuk left there, Baek Cheon-gyeong eventually finished the doll he was carving.

After fiddling with it for a mont and looking down at it, he got up and slowly walked to the decoration.

“That doll could be anyone…”

Baek Cheon-gyeong said in a tone as subdued as her eyes as she placed the doll she made in the center of the surrounding area.

“Anyone can co here.”

The finished doll was a young woman.
