Episode 67 This is the age we are in.
The next day I went to see my father.
It was to report what had happened with the Pungcheon religious leader.
Since it is a situation on campus, my father probably knows everything, but what I co to talk about and what Sima Ming reports to are completely different issues.
My father was training at the ti.
While I was waiting outside, there was a ssage telling to co inside.
“Please co into the training hall.”
The sound heard in the air was Hwi, my father’s water guard. It’s been a while since I heard his voice.
“It’s been a while, mister.”
“Yes, master.”
A short answer was heard. I rember holding Hwi’s hand and walking down the streets of Magachon when I was young. I think he was begging to buy him so street food. Anyway, the mory of that day remained a good mory for .
“Uncle, when will I see you again?” “I will treat you to a al.”
“yes.”
“Relax, mister.”
I wasn’t sure exactly how he would accept my favor or what his current feelings were toward . For , it was a pleasant mory, but for him, it may have been an uninspiring daily routine.
Still, you have to be friendly with him. Because he was the person my father trusted the most.
I ntally prepared myself and entered the training center.
just as expected.
Today too, my father attacked with Myeongwangbo.
While dodging with the blinker, I struck down my father’s Heavenly Demon Sword with the Black Demon Sword. This was the first clash between the Black Demon Sword and the Heavenly Demon Sword, and it was a much more dangerous attempt than simply dodging. Of course, my father noticed the change in my state at a glance.
“Your skills have improved!”
My father also attacked while his Myungwangbo level was much higher, but he blocked it in a more dangerous way.
“Of course it should increase. I will do the most martial arts training at this school. No, it would be the second ti. Ian does it the most.”
“Why don’t you think it’s the third ti?”
From these words, I was able to guess how hard my father was practicing Pungshin Sabo.
‘Father, you are doing well. You must achieve great success. Absolutely!’
I walked out of the training center with my father. We walked side by side and talked.
“What brings you here?”
“The leader of Pungcheon Church wants to join hands with . It feels like there has been a split with Palmazon. “Did you know?”
There was no need to say that he had taught the art of space-ti anomaly. This part was sothing that the Pungcheon religious leader would not disclose to the outside world.
This is how my father saw the core of this matter.
“It was arrogant for the Magons to bring the Pungcheon cult leader here. “We should have gone to him and resolved it, and if we were planning on bringing him in, everyone should have gone to him and asked for him.”
“You have touched the pride of the Pungcheon Church leader by mistake.”
There may be many reasons why he pushes to advance to the midfield, but when I look at them one by one, it occurred to that what lies at the bottom may really be his wounded pride.
“Things that are neglected and thought to be insignificant end up becoming the biggest problems. “This incident is clearly a mistake by Mazon.”
I got a glimpse of my father’s agony. If you feel like watching the mazons fight against the Pungcheon cult leader, you’ll want to get rid of those that lack loyalty.
However, it was obvious that if they, the main force of the school, collapsed, the Murim Alliance would eventually attack, so Palmazon was truly a necessary evil for his father.
“Then why did the leader of Pungcheon co to instead of visiting my father?”
My father was firm in his answer this ti too.
“The first reason is because they think it’s difficult for , and the second reason is because they think it’s easy to take advantage of you.”
“What are you trying to do using ?”
I asked, pretending not to know anything.
“Ask your questions to your soldiers.”
“I don’t have any military, do I?”
“I have to save it.”
“Where do you get soone as smart as Master Sima?”
My father just snorted once.
“It’s the luxury of those who have it!”
Truly, my greatest task is to save a soldier as smart as Sima Ming.
“Aren’t you doing well without the military?”
“Thank you for saying that, but most things turned out well because I was lucky.”
I overco situations based on my many experiences before returning, and I am not a military type person either. I really need soldiers who can assist with wisdom and insight.
“Please just answer this question. “What does the leader of Pungcheon Church want?”
My father stopped and answered.
“His dream is to advance to the midfield.”
“Are you soone who won’t leave power just to protect the sacred items?”
“That’s his obsessive personality.”
“You are saying that your dream is to advance to the midfield.”
In his life before his return, Pungcheon Gyoju could not advance to the midfield. Because Hwamugi swept away all of Wulin, he did not dare to take a single step into the central plains and ended his life outside the country.
But as I returned, his life was also changing. Because I ca to Jungwon, where I would not have co originally, and to our school in person.
“For generations, the foreign religions have targeted the central plains. “They have never been successful, but the desire to advance to the midfield is in their blood.”
“Now I understand why you ca to see .”
Although I knew all this without having to ask my father, I acted as if I had heard it from him. Sotis, even if you know, you have to act like you don’t know. It was a courtesy to my father rather than an abomination.
Most parents in the world would like their children to ask them this question. Do you think it’s different from your father?
At least this part was no different. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have said this.
As he was about to go inside, my father added bluntly:
“Since you’re already here, let’s eat and go.”
“yes!”
The best thing is when my father tells to eat and go.
But I didn’t say anything good. If you do that for no reason, he will never tell you to eat and go next ti.
He is not an easy father at all.
* * *
When I returned to Hwangcheongak after eating with my father, there was a visit from an unexpected person. It was Mabul who ca to see .
“Welco, old man.”
“Once you co, it’s too late.”
It was my first ti seeing him this close. He was shorter than he looked from a distance, and looking at his golden skin made want to touch it with my hands.
Mabul.
My brother’s right hand man in na and reality.
“Please sit down.”
“That’s right.”
Mabul sat down. He hated having anyone look down on him. That’s probably why you straighten your back like that even when you sit down.
“How can I just stay when my friend’s important sacred item was stolen? “I ca to find out how the investigation is going.”
“I am currently investigating this incident myself.”
“Is it really true that there were thieves?”
“Is it true? “What do you an by that?”
When I asked casually, he looked like he was asking because he didn’t know.
“How can we believe that a thief has entered our school?”
“Wouldn’t it be more difficult to believe that the Pungcheon religious leader staged a play of his own making?”
From the beginning, we created a tense atmosphere.
There was also a subtle golden glow in his eyes. It was a phenonon in which only those who achieved great success as the Great Golden Lama appeared.
How strong is Mabul’s martial arts skills? The Golden Great Lama Attack that Mabul had learned was a martial art that was as difficult to deal with as the Seophon Demon Attack’s hex.
“If there really was a thief in the inner garden, the reputation of our school would be greatly damaged.”
“I guess so.”
“Shouldn’t we handle it quietly?”
“How do you an?”
“How about sending him back outside to prevent him from making a fuss? “It’s not like you can catch a thief that you can’t catch with him anyway.”
It was clearly a comnt aid at . He was convinced that it was a self-made drama, and he probably believed that I was helping him with it.
“Will you listen to , who is just a footnote?”
“I heard that the leader of the Pungcheon Church ca to visit you?”
“I ca to say hello.”
“The leader of the Pungcheon Church believes that you will be his successor.”
“There was no such expression. Why do you think that?”
“If not, I’m not the type of person to go to soone. He is a man who is used to having soone co and say hello. “If he found you, he must have seen your potential as a successor.”
While speaking, he constantly looked at my reactions and tried to read my inner thoughts. I’m sorry to say this, but that’s an attempt that even my father fails at.
“For the sake of this school, I have to send him back.”
It was an attempt to kill two birds with one stone.
If I try to send him back, that’s fine, and if I refuse this offer, they can accuse of not acting for the sake of the school.
“No. “Then you shouldn’t send him back.”
“What do you an?”
“As you said, he will use this incident as an excuse to discredit our school. Then you have to hold on to it. On the contrary, you won’t be able to open your mouth without permission until you are at the main school. Let just hint. “If you want to find sothing new, don’t open your mouth carelessly.”
For a mont, Mabul could not answer. Of course, he wasn’t the kind of person who would co to take off a lump and then put another on.
“The leader of Pungcheon is a man like a snake. “There is clearly another ulterior motive.”
“Then I’ll pretend to hold his hand and figure out his intentions.”
“Since you’re this stubborn, it looks like you’ll be a great Nether Footnote in the future.”
“Mainly in terms of what we believe is right.”
Mabul took those words as a reprimand that he was an unjust person.
Mabul must have thought it was an opportunity, but he quickly made a sign with his finger.
A man of the law!
At that mont, a golden glow emanated from Mabul’s body.
The opponent cannot open his eyes for a mont due to this light, which is more intense than the sun. This fleeting mont was as long as an eon for those with mazon-level skills. Should I stab him here or stab him there? No, let’s stab them in both places.
I closed my eyes too.
But before I closed my eyes, I knew. My eyes were barely affected by that light. Golden light poured out of his body, and the demonic fire was clearly visible in the center of it.
At this mont, it was not the Golden Great Lama Ball that shined, but my Shinan Art.
But I deliberately closed my eyes. There was no need to reveal my skills to Mabul.
When I opened my eyes again, Mabul was sticking his face right in front of my nose.
His face, which seed both childlike and adult-like, felt unfamiliar.
The way he looked at was exactly like this.
If I had decided to kill you, you would already be dead!
He was a man who could be confident in himself. The Great Golden Lama has five beasts in total. You don’t have to experience it to know how scary the attack will be after it flies in while blindfolded.
I didn’t say anything. Even if it wasn’t fear, I intentionally showed a reaction of surprise and fear.
Mabul probably thought this was enough warning and stood up. He said the opposite of what he said when Hyeolcheondoma first ca to see .
“I want to see you often. We drink tea and talk like this. “If you join , only good things will happen to you.”
“Please share a lot with your brother.”
Mabul smiled in satisfaction at my childish arrogance.
“Yes, this is the age right now. See you then.”
“Please take a look.”
As he walked out of the room, the stern expression I had put on on purpose eased, and the golden room returned to its original state.
Hey Mabul. You better not see often. As of now, there are only three types of Mazon that are involved with .
Either we’re friends, we’re getting closer, or we’re dead.
Which do you think? As of now, I don’t think we’ll beco friends…
So are you confident in creating the fourth category?
