Chapter 140
140. Red Tiger Ark
“Heh, heh, heh heh.”
Georyukdo smiled like a man who had lost his mind and looked at his long sword and arm on the floor..
I never thought I would be putting down a weapon like this, which I have never put down in my over twenty years of life as a ronin..
Rather than pain, a deep sense of emptiness came over me..
“I can't believe this powerful sword fell to a lump of blood like that..”
The emotion that followed was anger..
Georyeokdo glared at Wijicheon with bloodshot eyes..
Part of me wanted to kill him right away, but the reality was that I had to beg for my life..
But Georyukdo had no intention of begging for his life..
‘That bastard can't kill me. He doesn't have the courage to kill people. So, every time you tried to spread the fire, you turned on the sword..’
It was a wrong decision, but Georyokdo believed in his own thoughts and acted confidently..
“Where are my brothers? Could it be that they already killed me??”
“You will be fighting with other seniors. Because the teacher told me not to kill anyone if possible... … might be alive.”
Wei Ji-cheon, wearing a lead sword, returned to his usual timid appearance..
Georyukdo pondered one word from what Wijicheon had just said..
“teacher? Could it be that he planned all this??”
Wi Ji-cheon asked a question instead of an answer..
“Why do you bother others so much? They robbed more than half of the money they earned each day, assaulted them, and killed them carelessly.…….”
A faint spark of life flashed in Wi Ji-cheon’s eyes..
As the boy patrolled the slums, he saw how hard the people lived there..
Knowing that fact, it was harder than I thought to refrain from using a killing sword against a giant sword..
Even now, the sword of flesh was whispering in the boy's ears..
‘kill it.’
Therefore, Wi Ji-cheon was asking this question..
“You are strong in martial arts and your body is healthy. If I didn't have a job, I could at least farm.…….”
Wi Ji-cheon lived as a fugitive with his grandfather from a young age..
Most of them hid in the mountains and slash-and-burn villages in the mountains..
I couldn't stay anywhere for long, but I made friends who stayed in one place for a while..
Children who were scruffy but naive and kind..
And the children who thought they would be happy and satisfied with what they were given..
While patrolling the slums, I saw similar children here too..
But I couldn't find any happy expressions on the faces of the children here..
‘kill it.’
Wei Ji-cheon clenched his fists..
The battle was already won, but the sword's voice did not disappear..
Without even knowing it, Georyokdo was giggling and laughing..
“Farming? Is this lump of blood that has no idea what's going on in the world making fun of me? Kid. listen carefully.”
Georyeokdo struggled to get up, walked in front of Wijicheon and frowned..
“This is how the world works. It is natural for the strong to oppress, steal, and eat the weak. Didn’t you turn me into an asshole with that great sword??”
A disgusting smell flowed from the giggling mouth of Georyeokdo..
He was sure that Wei Ji-cheon would never kill him..
So, even though he lost the fight, he vented his anger in this way and shook Wi Ji-cheon's heart..
Georyukdo continued speaking with bloodshot eyes..
“In the end, you will end up just like me. No, the hypocrites of the political faction went one step further. While they play charlatans in front, they are involved in all sorts of dirty things behind the scenes. you can't even imagine.”
“…….”
Wi Ji-cheon looked up at Georyokdo without saying a word..
With one sword, I could cut off that thick neck, or I could pierce the heart and burst it open..
Or they could have made a shallow cut on purpose, causing the person to writhe in pain for a very long time and then die slowly..
‘kill it!’
The voice of the flesh sword began to be heard again..
The temptation is stronger than fighting with swords.
The other person was a piece of trash that was of no help to the world..
‘Then, wouldn't killing be the right thing to do for the world??’
Not knowing that Wi Ji-cheon's heart was shaking, Georyok-do continued speaking..
“The sooner you stop playing the disgusting charlatan, the better. The more you endure it, the more it becomes distorted later. Hehe. Well, that's not bad either.”
“stop…….”
Wei Ji-cheon shook his head in pain..
Georyeokdo, who saw this, felt an exhilarating joy..
The blood clot in front of him was a martial arts genius..
He's a genius who looks like he's only 15 at most, but has already reached his peak..
But even so, I was just a kid who didn't even meet the terms and conditions..
‘If I do it well, I might be able to put you in a bad mood like this..’
Georyeokdo, who was licking his lips with his tongue, had his eyes shining as coldly as a snake..
I couldn't win with martial arts, but I was confident enough to play with my tongue..
“Hehe. The eyes are worth seeing. Do you want to kill me? But if you kill me, you'll be just the same.?”
“That's it…….”
Georyokdo felt his hair stand on end at the thought that he could tarnish and corrupt the late Jisoo, which had a bright future, with his own hands..
It was then.
“Shut up, you bastard.!”
A jjangdol flew from somewhere and aimed at Georyeokdo’s head..
Georyeokdo tilted his head and avoided the stone..
“Just keep giving it a try. I'll rip your mouth open.”
Cheoldu, who was thought to have fallen out due to injury, walked forward with long strides and stood next to Wijicheon..
Georyeokdo, who saw this, clicked his tongue as if he was dumbfounded..
“under. Cheoldu, this bastard has grown up a lot. Do you think you'll beat me because I don't have an arm??”
The strongman glared at Cheoldu and growled. At the same time, I glanced at Wijicheon..
Wei Ji-cheon had his eyes closed..
As if fighting against the evil spirit that had permeated my heart, I said to myself, “Stop…” … I kept muttering “.”.
‘If it's now…….’
Georyeokdo thought there might be an opening to escape..
Even though one of his arms was cut off and he was unable to fight, he was still able to fully use the Divine Law..
If you suddenly turn around and run away after throwing a long wind,…….
The hard-core bastards surrounding him won't be able to stop him..
It was when Georyeokdo finished calculating and wiggled his fingers..
“Phew…….”
Wi Ji-cheon slowly opened his closed eyes..
Although the sword's voice was still ringing in his ears, the boy seemed much calmer..
“Strength too. I won't kill you.”
As if he knew that would happen, a sneer appeared on Georyukdo's lips..
“As expected, he is a partisan brat. I thought so. What you guys always do…….”
“but.”
Wi Ji-cheon, who interrupted the other person, grinned..
It was a smile so similar to Baek Soo-ryong's that Cheol-du, who was next to him, was startled..
This is Baek Soo-ryong’s expression right before he beat his disciples..
“He said that even if you don't kill him, it doesn't matter if you do something else..”
“……what? What are you talking about??”
“Our teacher.”
Wi Ji-cheon pulled out the sword from his waist with its sheath..
Then he patted the floor and walked to Georyeokdo..
Wi Ji-cheon, whose eyes were half-turned, muttered in a somber voice..
“You taught me to beat up the kids who couldn't come to their senses even if they got knocked down, to the point where I thought it would be better for them to get knocked down..”
“Now, now, wait a minute! What kind of teacher…….”
Feeling danger, Georyeokdo took a step back, but Wijicheon rushed in before him..
“hehe.”
Wi Ji-cheon smiled slightly with a red face..
Wei Ji-cheon, who had suddenly burrowed into the arms of Georyeokdo, swung his sword from bottom to top..
A blow that lands precisely on the chin.!
Wow!!
With just one attack, the giant's large body floated in the air, but that was only the beginning..
Wijicheon beat Georyukdo from head to toe, not leaving out a single spot..
baba baba bak!
“asleep! asleep! asleep! No, don't die! Don't die, die!”
At that moment, the sword in my head stopped whispering as if surprised..
‘…….’
After about a moment, Wijicheon stopped in front of the Georyeokdo, which was completely ruined and lying around, and grunted..
“Phew… … Phew…….”
“Hey, are you okay??”
Cheoldu came to the side and asked carefully..
At that moment, Wei Ji-cheon slowly turned to the side..
creepy.
Cheoldu felt goosebumps rising on his forearms as he felt a moment of life..
‘What a way to live…….’
Cheoldu, who was not surprised as he was barely alive, swallowed dry saliva..
So oppressed... … It was life just before it exploded..
Wei Ji-cheon barely spoke..
“……I almost killed him. No, even while I was beating him, I still wanted to kill him..”
“…….”
Wei Ji-cheon was still clenching his fists..
I barely held back, remembering the advice Baek Soo-ryong gave me, but it was really hard to suppress my desire to live..
But little by little it was getting better.
“uh… … Well done.”
Cheoldu awkwardly stroked the boy’s head..
He was a warrior much stronger than me, but since he was still a child, he comforted me as an older brother..
“I endured it well. bastard. We can do better in the future.”
“lol. thank you.”
Wi Ji-cheon, who had suddenly returned to his innocent face, scratched the back of his head..
Cheoldu grabbed Georyeokdo’s fallen leg and dragged him, saying:.
“Should I go back soon??”
“yes!”
The Cheoldu faction, or rather the Gaengsaengmun faction, has cleared the place..
The disciples brought by Georyukdo had already surrendered, and all that was left to do was remove the traces of the fight..
“But are all the kids at Blue Dragon Academy as strong as you? You said you were a first year student.?”
Wi Ji-cheon nodded to Cheol-du’s question..
“sure. All my seniors are stronger than me..”
“You are stronger than me?”
Wi Ji-cheon trembled in humility, but Cheol-du, who did not know that fact, could only gape..
‘All the kids at Cheongryong Academy are monsters.…….’
It was Cheoldu who vowed that when he returned, he would learn the art of rehabilitation and learn the art of great heaven to his death..
At that time, Asam came and reported to Cheoldu..
“Cheoldu. Everything is sorted out.”
“Are you coming? Let's go back.”
It was time for them to settle down and leave..
“That's fun.”
It wasn't a loud voice.
But at that moment, Wi Ji-cheon felt the hair on his body stand on end and turned around..
Chaeng!
The sword I drew without realizing it was pointed in the direction from which the voice was heard..
Cold sweat broke out all over my body, and my heart was pounding..
“Hehehe. Good response.”
“…….”
A man with wild hair was looking down at them from the top of the building..
Backlit under the moonlight, the man looked like a black figure, but only his eyes were shining bright yellow..
The man jumped down and walked towards Wijicheon..
“I wondered why there was so much noise nearby, so I came out and saw that something interesting was happening..”
“Red Tiger Ark…….”
Cheoldu looked at the man's face and groaned softly..
“I heard that the facility is closed and undergoing training..”
“hmm. Your name... … Was it ironclad? The closing training has just ended. There was a small realization.”
Red Tiger Ark smiled with a proud expression and turned his head again to look at Wei Ji-cheon..
he asked with an expression of incomprehension..
“Hey kid. I learned the sword of flesh..”
“…….”
“But why are you suppressing it? If you force yourself to endure it, the sword will shake, and as a result, you will feel uncomfortable, which will lead to the creation of mental evil..”
“…….”
“I know you're not dumb. If I kill a few of these people here, will they open their mouths??”
When Jeokho Ark looked around with a grin on his face, Wi Ji-cheon responded with a stern expression..
“I learned that I need to train myself to be able to control my sword with my own will..”
“Wrong.”
Red Tiger Ark shook his head resolutely..
“The sword of flesh is not something to be suppressed and controlled. You can only reach the next level by surrendering yourself and becoming one..”
“…….”
“Ugh. You learned it wrong. I learned it wrong. Who taught it is nonsense. It's nonsense.”
The Red Tiger Ark, who was repeating the same words, grinned, showing his yellow teeth..
“Hey kid. I will teach you how to use a proper sword. become my disciple.”
“I don't like it. my teacher is…….”
“I don't care what you think..”
At that moment, red-stained fingernails hit Wijicheon..
