Chapter 191
##191fury. diary (1)
After confirming that Mae Geuk-ryeom's presence had completely disappeared, Baek Soo-ryong released his reverse magic..
“I was wondering what would happen if I got caught... … after. I can't do it twice.”
I was lucky.
If he had sharpened his senses as usual, the probability of his identity being discovered was not low, no matter how good Baeksuryong's counter-use skills were..
However, a little while ago, Mae Geuk-ryeom was dizzy thinking about his daughter, and he was quite drunk because he drank alcohol that he did not drink..
Thanks to this, Baek Soo-ryong was able to deceive his dull senses..
‘I'm sorry I lied to you, but I never would have told you if I had asked you directly..’
A warrior with strong self-esteem like Mae Geukryeom will never say anything weak to those around him, especially his family..
Didn't he hide the fact that he suffered from mental illness for decades?.
‘I'll just have to explain it to Jicheon's grandfather later..’
Wi Ji-yeol will be embarrassed to suddenly have a drinking buddy, but he will kiss Baek Soo-ryong's request..
“Indeed. I wonder why I went through so much trouble meeting my grandfather and father who are not even in my family..”
Baek Soo-ryong let out a laugh and looked at the night sky that Mae Geuk-ryeom had been looking at. The pitch-black sky was filled with stars as if they were pouring down..
I was waiting for a while.
Let Mae Geuk-ryeom meet Baek Mu-heun first, to give them time to talk about what they couldn't say..
If I were to be a white water dragon now, I could have followed them secretly and overheard what they were talking about, but I didn't really want to do that..
“……Shall we leave soon?.”
Baek Soo-ryong's new form muttered and quickly climbed over the fence..
whirring!
The cool night breeze passed by my ears. Baek Soo-ryong spread his light attack at a moderate speed and headed toward the lake that Baek Mu-heun had mentioned..
It didn't take long before we arrived at our destination..
Eunlin Lake).
It was named so because the way the moonlight breaks on the water looks like sparkling silver scales..
The scenery of Eunlin Lake was impressive enough that even Baek Soo-ryong, who is not particularly fond of beautiful tastes, was a little impressed..
It seemed like a great place for couples to come together..
-This father proposed to your mother in front of the lake. It was a very beautiful place called Eunlin Lake..
-Really? please tell me in detail!
Memories of childhood that suddenly come to mind.
Baek Mu-heun looking at him with a warm expression, and his younger self looking up at him..
“Suddenly again…….”
Baek Soo-ryong muttered with a confused expression..
At the same time as the impossible memory, I felt a pounding headache..
‘Why are you doing this??’
Fortunately, the headache went away quickly, but Baek Soo-ryong was confused by memories that were not his..
“Phew.”
Baek Soo-ryong let out a small sigh and immediately looked for the presence of the two people..
Because I had no idea what to do with these confusing memories right now..
‘There it is.’
It wasn't a very big lake, so I was able to quickly find the two people..
The white water dragon approached cautiously and jumped lightly onto a nearby tree..
Tuk.
The white water dragon landed on a tree branch without making any sign and looked at his father and maternal grandfather standing by the lakeside..
With an awkward distance of about three feet, they stood facing the same direction..
“…….”
“…….”
It seemed like they were talking about something, but there was no sound as if they were hiding it..
‘Why are you talking for so long??’
Human psychology is strange..
I came late on purpose so as not to overhear their conversation, but when I saw them, my curiosity piqued..
Baek Soo-ryong thought for a moment..
‘If you try to break through the trick, you'll be caught right away... … . okay. I guess it's not polite to eavesdrop..’
But wouldn't it be okay to look a little closer??
Baeksu-ryong raised his heavenly magic and opened his Blood Demon Eyes..
Keying-!
His eyes turned red and pierced the darkness of the night..
Then, the faces and expressions of the two people were visible as detailed as daylight..
“…….”
The person who mainly spoke was Mae Geuk-ryeom. He spoke with a calm expression.
On the other hand, Baek Mu-heun's reaction while listening was passionate..
“!!”
While listening to the story, he turned to Mae Geuk-ryeom once in a while and made a loud noise, and Baek Soo-ryong, who had mastered lip reading, was able to read the shape of his mouth..
‘Why didn't you tell me earlier?!’
‘You should have sent at least a letter.!’
‘Even though I am like that! Yakbing didn’t even know until the end.……!’
Before I knew it, tears were flowing from Baek Mu-heun’s eyes. Blood flowed from my clenched teeth, and my clenched fists turned white..
‘I'm sorry.’
Mae Geukryeom's mouth shape was much easier to read. He repeated the same words in a slow, strained tone..
‘I'm sorry. sorry. Sorry.’
The old swordsman asked for forgiveness for the first time in decades.
To the son-in-law who must have hated her without knowing the exact reason, and to the daughter who closed her eyes under the misunderstanding that her father hated her until the end..
Tears of atonement flowed endlessly from the wrinkled eyes of the old man..
‘Tsk…….’
Baek Soo-ryong watched them with sad eyes..
The misunderstanding between the two has accumulated over decades and has become an old feeling..
It would be impossible to solve it all at once..
‘still… … It will disappear little by little.’
Tears slowly stopped flowing from the two people's eyes, and new emotions appeared in the hostile gazes they turned towards each other..
They looked at each other in silence, nodded their heads, and sighed softly. Although it was only for a moment, he was seen smiling..
‘Fortunately, I think the story turned out well..’
In an atmosphere of reconciliation, a warm smile appeared on Baek Soo-ryong's lips..
Baeksu-ryong received the blood demon eye. Because there was no need to watch anymore.
But then, a chill began to flow in the atmosphere between the two people..
‘hmm?’
For a moment, it seemed like they were arguing and raising their voices... … The illusion cleared and a harsh voice burst out..
“conflict! Have you seen this bastard?!”
Mae Geukryeom threw out Lion's Roar first. He drew his sword without hesitation.
“Is your father-in-law always like this?!”
Baek Mu-heun also did not just listen quietly. He also drew his sword and shouted.
Two people pounced on each other at the same time.
Chae chae chaeng!
In an instant, the swords clashed dozens of times and sparks flew out in an instant..
Baek Su-ryong opened his mouth wide..
‘No, why are we fighting again??’
It was a situation I could not understand at all..
Just a moment ago, the mood was clearly one of reconciliation, but now they're swinging their swords again like enemies they met on a single-tree bridge?.
Even the fights became increasingly fierce. How many times have our blades brushed against each other's vital points?.
“Ugh, really.”
Baek Soo-ryong, who was worse off, decided to intervene and stop the fight. He sighed and jumped from the tree..
Wow!
After the two people clashed their swords once, they aimed for the moment to increase the distance..
flutter!
The Baeksuryong came down between the two with his blue long gun flapping and scolded them..
“Stop it! I'm not ashamed to look at my mother... … Ugh!”
Baek Su-ryong was startled and dodged away. Two swords, which he thought had retreated, were aimed at him at the same time..
I barely avoided the attack, but my posture collapsed significantly..
“What did you do…….”
At that moment, Baek Su-ryong saw.
He saw his father and maternal grandfather smiling at him in similar ways..
“This guy. As expected, I was watching..”
“Wasn't it nice to see Abby and Haebi squeezing out tears and snot??”
It was a trap.!
“Now, wait a minute! It's not like that…….”
Baek Soo-ryong's complexion changed and he tried to make an excuse, but the two people didn't seem to want to listen..
““Question and answer dance!””
The two peak swordsmen pushed Baeksu-ryong as if they had been together for ten years..
Quick resolution. The speed was incredible, as if they were not planning to give him time to draw his sword at all..
Swish Swish Swish!
Maegeukryeom's swordfish targeted all kinds of blood vessels on the White Water Dragon like dozens of snakes..
‘I'm serious about this!’
The moment the embarrassed Baek Soo-ryong stepped back in a dazed manner, Baek Mu-heun, who had been waiting for an opportunity, threw himself behind him and hugged his son..
Suddenly!
Even Baek Soo-ryong had no choice but to fall victim to that tactic, which was like a move from Donggwijin..
“Ah, father?”
“Father-in-law! It's now!”
“Come on! Good catch.”
Mae Geukryeom approached with his sword in its scabbard and holding it like a club..
Baek Soo-ryong’s face was colored with absurdity..
“What is this…….”
If I had tried to hurt Baek Mu-heun, I could have done it, but I couldn't bear to do that to my own father..
He calculated that and hugged her from behind. My father was such a cunning man.!
In the end, unable to shake off Baek Mu-heun, Baek Soo-ryong placed his hope on the approaching Mae Geuk-ryeom..
“Ha, grandfather. It's not like you're going to beat your only grandson like a dog with that sword.?”
Just a little while ago, no old man shed tears thinking about his daughter..
A sad aura flowed from the eyes of student leader Mae Geuk-ryeom..
“It's not the first time you've upset me so far. I chose to do things that I was told not to do, and I got hurt by randomly attacking bad people. If I had been a student, I would have died prematurely many times..”
“but…….”
“Of course, the result was good. But do you know how worried I was as a relative? You bastard. I was so disgusted with what you were doing that I was determined to catch you someday..”
“In the end, your last words are your true intentions.!”
Baek Soo-ryong’s defiance was completely ignored. Baek Moo-heun chimed in from behind..
“That's right, father-in-law. My son became a master overnight and became very spoiled. Today is the time when true education is needed..”
“Is that right? I have my father's permission, so I won't reject you..”
As Mae Geuk-ryeom approached and took up his stance in earnest, Baek Su-ryong struggled and screamed..
“no! Since when did these two get along so well?―!”
Above the sparkling water of Eunlin Lake, the white water dragon's scream rang out for a long time..
* * *
“Okay. It's nice to make my only son, Noontaengi, into Bamtaengi.?”
Baek Soo-ryong rubbed his bruised eyes with an egg and glared at his father..
Across from him, Baek Muheun was rubbing his eyes with an egg..
“Is it okay for you to turn your fifty-year-old father, Noontaengi, into a nighttaengi??”
“I had no choice but to resist and this happened. The father participated in the assault on his son and was accidentally hit by a stick wielded by his father-in-law.?”
“……It must be a mistake, right? Now that I think about it, I think he hit me on purpose.…….”
“It's true that I hit you on purpose. I saw you hitting and laughing.”
“also! I knew that guy would be like that.!”
The father and son, who had been grumbling while facing each other for a while, suddenly looked at each other's faces and said, "Phew!" and burst out laughing..
It was so funny to see them sitting across from each other and rubbing their eyes with eggs..
Baek Soo-ryong said with a grin..
“The Baekmugwan kids have grown up a lot.?”
“Don't even talk. Jang heard that you became an instructor at Cheongryong Academy.…….”
As soon as Mae Geuk-ryeom returned, he went into the room and said he would sleep first. The father and son, who were left alone, sat across from each other and talked about what had been left behind..
Baek Soo-ryong, who had been talking about trivial things for a while, remembered something he had forgotten and asked..
“right. He said he had something to give me.?”
“Oh, you mean this?.”
Baek Mu-heun took something out of his arms..
It was a thick book with nothing written on the outside..
The look in Baek Muheun’s eyes as he handed over the book was strange..
“Even though it was hidden well, it was there. I ripped open the ceiling to catch a rat and found it..”
“What is this??”
“……You will know it when you read it yourself. I'll make room for you, so you can read it alone..”
Baek Mu-heun got up from his seat. He patted his son on the shoulder and left the room..
“What is that serious face??”
Baek Soo-ryong tilted his head and opened the book he had been handed..
「I've been having strange dreams often these days..」
The first sentence started like that. It was a familiar handwriting. It seemed like something written by Baek Soo-ryong some time ago..
Baek Soo-ryong read the following without paying attention..
「It's a dream about a man, and the man was a martial arts instructor from a now extinct blood religion..」
Baek Soo-ryong’s expression hardened..
His hands were shaking slightly as he quickly turned the pages..
