Chapter 341
341fury. It's serious, it's serious
Moon Yool had his eyes closed with a peaceful expression..
“Elderly?”
Baek Soo-ryong looked at Moon Yool with a blank face..
I just had a long dream about the lives of two people. It took time to adjust to the sudden return to reality..
“Elderly? Are you okay??”
Now, suspecting that this too was a dream, Baek Soo-ryong cautiously extended his hand to Moon Yool..
Tuk.
Baek Soo-ryong's hand touched his shoulder, but Moon Yool still did not move..
A soft smile appeared on the old man's stiff lips..
“Elderly……!”
Baek Soo-ryong’s expression became distorted. He shook Munyul's shoulders with both arms and spoke in an angry tone..
“There's something I'd like to ask. Was the person I met really Master Eunsa? Just answer that.!”
Moon Yul is dead.
No matter how much I shake his shoulders, he won't wake up again..
Even though Baek Soo-ryong knew that fact, he could not easily shake off his regret. It was unusual behavior..
“What if you show me such a dream and then leave like this?…….”
What I wanted so much in my past life.
The happy smiles of the masters I saw in my dream.
It was the happiest dream I've ever had, but Baek Soo-ryong couldn't smile anymore..
Because in the end, it was a dream that could not come true..
“If I knew they were real masters, there were things I wanted to ask them.…….”
Baek Soo-ryong, who was muttering helplessly, found the Bing Baek Hwan lying on Moon Yool’s right side..
And under Bingbaekhwan, there was a letter left behind by Moon Yul..
「This is an item that has been missing for a long time. Please store it carefully so that it does not fall off again..」
It was her will to leave the Bing Baek Hwan, which she had received from Master Eun as a sign of her true identity, to her disciple, Baek Soo-ryong..
That wasn't all.
Surprisingly, the writing on the seal disappeared, and new writing appeared above it..
「You are born with a destiny of reverse heaven. I saw your past life.」
“…….”
Baek Su-ryong was not surprised..
When you asked me to read your memories, I guessed it to some extent..
「I saw why Yerin couldn't come back to me, how difficult it was for you, and how deep your heart was for your teachers. I was able to imagine how much thought it must have taken to convey Yerin's will to me..」
The handwriting on the letter was neat and smooth. It seemed as if it showed Munyul’s personality..
「I would like to talk slowly, but I don't have much time left. So while you are talking to Yerin, I would like to write a few words..」
“……Could it be that you gave up the time you were given to me??”
The last time I can spend with Jeongin.
Munyul gave up part of his time to Baek Soo-ryong..
It was designed to allow Baek Soo-ryong to have a brief conversation with Master Eun..
What a foolish man..
「This is probably the most curious thing. The dream we had is a magical technique that temporarily summons the spirit of the dead through memory..」
Baek Su-ryong’s eyes widened. Without realizing it, part of the book I was holding in my hand was crumpled..
“If it was like that……!”
Why didn't you tell me in advance? I even felt a little resentful towards Moon Yool..
「In fact, the probability of success of the technique was not high. This is because the deeper the relationship between the person practicing the technique and the deceased, and the longer the time spent together, the higher the chance of success. This trick was a gamble for me too..」
“that…….”
Baek Soo-ryong inherited the martial arts skills of his four masters and spent more than ten years together..
Since we were together even until the very last moment, we could say that our relationship was so deep that it is difficult to find it anywhere else in the world..
「It was a technique that could only be performed once in a lifetime. So I waited. haha. It was worth the wait. Now that I have married Yerin and lived a happy life, I have no more regrets..」
“Well, isn't it a dream? You are a really frustrating person too..”
Baek Soo-ryong raised his head and looked at Moon Yool. The smile on the old man's lips contained sincere happiness..
「Don't regret our short meeting. This is the end for me, but it will not be the end for you. One day, we will meet our teachers again.」
“We'll meet again?”
Moon Yul's writings contained his confidence that it would definitely happen in the future. It felt like a prophecy, not just a wish or wish..
「You are born with a destiny of reverse heaven. Even at this moment when I am connected to heaven, I cannot see your future. All I can know is that soon the moment will come when you will have to make an important decision..」
The fate of reverse heaven.
Hyeoncheon Shinnyeo and her dying mother Eunho, whom she met at Namgung House, had similar stories..
‘What on earth is the fate of Yeokcheon?…….’
Just because you have learned the art of Yeokcheon, you will not be called the fate of Yeokcheon..
If that were the case, the fate of all blood demons in the past would have been reversed..
‘Because I was reincarnated with memories of my past life? Or because of my constitution? What is choice??’
I could only guess, but there was nothing I could be sure about..
「When that moment comes, remember. The people who are by your side, and the people who were by your side…….」
Pusssss-
The book in White Water Dragon's hand turned into dust and began to scatter. The remaining power of the technique was running out..
「Please, I hope you become the master of your destiny..」
The letter completely turned into dust and disappeared, and the only thing left in its place was Bing Baek-hwan..
“…….”
Baek Soo-ryong looked at the Bing Baek Hwan left by Moon Yool with complicated eyes..
Although there was an attempt to find Master Eun's true identity, the journey was originally set out to find Bingbaekhwan..
However, now that the goal has been achieved, Baek Soo-ryong has taken care of Bing Baek-hwan with complicated feelings..
“I will keep in mind the advice you gave me today..”
Baek Soo-ryong expressed his condolences to Moon Yool and placed the Bing Baek Hwan he had left on his right wrist..
Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu-!
When the Bingbaekhwan, who had been separated for over a period of time, became a pair, a pure white air current enveloped the body of the Baeksuryong as if they were resonating with each other. In an instant, Baek Soo-ryong’s military uniform swelled significantly..
Wow!!
The cold wind of the northern wind and cold snow swirled around the white water dragon's body and slowly subsided. A pure white air current seeped into his body..
“Sooooo… … . Whoa whoa…….”
Baek Soo-ryong sat cross-legged and took a slow, deep breath..
On the outside, nothing much had changed. This was because his level had risen to the point where he was not greatly affected by divine objects..
However, there was a feeling that the unstable physical condition due to the reverse heavenly attack had become somewhat stable. It was a comfortable feeling that is difficult to describe in words..
When Baek Su-ryong fully recovered the energy of Bingbaekhwan and opened his eyes again, Pungwolhwagong and Geomno were by his side..
The two were looking at Moon Yool with bitter expressions..
“……boy. It went like this.”
“I'm glad you look happy in the end.”
The two accepted Munyul's death calmly. Geomno picked up Munyul’s body and headed somewhere..
Pungwolhwagong, who was staring at the scene, turned his head and asked Baek Soo-ryong..
“Did the two people I met in my dream look happy??”
“yes.”
“……Good thing.”
* * *
Munyul’s funeral was held simply..
Baek Soo-ryong attended the event and stayed as a guest at Pungwolhwagong's manor for two more days..
I needed time to organize the enlightenment of Bing Baek Shin-gong that I gained during Geomno and Bi-mu, and there were also things I needed to receive from Pungwolhwa-gong..
“Okay, it's done..”
Family portrait of Baek Mu-heun and Mei Ruobing sitting side by side on chairs, with Baek Su-ryong standing behind them..
Baek Soo-ryong smiled happily after seeing the completed painting..
“My maternal grandfather will be very happy..”
After rolling up the scroll and tying it tightly with string, I placed it in a long wooden box and placed it inside my travel bag. If I did this, there wouldn't be any damage on the way back..
But Baek Soo-ryong had one more unexpected gift..
“Now, take this too..”
“This is…….”
It was a painting depicting a white water dragon and a ice moon goddess dancing the New Wol Bing White Dance under the crescent moon..
Baek Soo-ryong asked with wide eyes at the unexpected gift..
“Can I take this? I know you really liked it.…….”
In the past few days, Baek Soo-ryong saw Master Feng Yue looking blankly at this painting for hours on end..
“I thought about it, and you're right about taking it. Isn’t he the only disciple of Ice Moon Goddess Eun Ye-rin?.”
Pungwolhwagong shook off his regrets, rolled up the scroll, and handed it to Baek Soo-ryong..
I thought about drawing another picture of the same thing, but I stopped because I didn't have the confidence to recreate the inspiration I received at that moment..
“Take it before I change my mind.”
Baek Soo-ryong accepted the scroll without further hesitation..
“I will keep it as a lifelong heirloom..”
“……If you try to sell it anywhere, I will chase you down to the Blue Dragon Science Museum right away, so please know that..”
“If you come to Cheongryong Academy, can you draw all four of us, including my maternal grandfather??”
“What? This guy……!”
Two people laughing while joking.
Although it was a short relationship, its depth was never shallow..
People who remember Eun Ye-rin, the Ice Moon Goddess.
To Baek Soo-ryong, that fact alone made the two of them special, and they had a deep friendship over the past few days..
At that time, Pungwol Painter, who was smiling brightly, suddenly became serious, said:.
“Be careful. Bingungung is a dangerous place.”
Pungwolhwagong heard that Baeksuryong was planning to go to the Ice Palace. But he expressed deep concern.
In the past, Binggung was the source that provided information to Bingwol Goddess about the residence of the God of Life and Death..
“Binggung may have had an affair with a blood religion. I haven't found any hard evidence, but I still doubt them.”
When Baek Soo-ryong first came, this was why Pungwolhwagong was suspicious of him..
“yes. I'll be careful.”
Baek Su-ryong was now fully aware of that possibility..
‘If so, I should check further..’
If Binggung joined hands with the Blood Cult, or in the worst case scenario, was absorbed into the Blood Cult... … . We need to find a way to prepare for it..
However, I did not intend to just attack the ice palace. The first thing to do was to understand the situation after they visited the palace..
But before that.
“I plan to go to the Hyeonmuhak Museum first..”
“I said I would meet Master.?”
“yes.”
The Master of Xuantian, the owner of the Shaanxi Xuanwu Academy and renowned as one of the most outstanding magicians in the world..
‘The fate of Yeokcheon. I need to know exactly what it is.’
Baek Soo-ryong planned to meet her and ask her..
Pungwol Chemical, who did not know the details of the situation, nodded..
“If you are a teacher, you will probably be able to answer some of the questions you want to ask..”
Although it is not known to the world, Pungwolhwagong was one of the disciples who learned magic from the goddess Hyeoncheon..
This was a story before Hyeonmuhakgwan was built in Moorim..
“Well then, let’s go. Old man Geomno. Let's go.”
Baek Su-ryong also greeted Geomno who came to meet him..
Geomno nodded with a dull face..
“I wish you luck.”
A mischievous smile appeared on Baek Soo-ryong's lips as he remembered Geomno, the energetic young man in his dream..
“Next time, we'll fight with the sword..”
“……Good.”
The corners of Geomno’s mouth twitched..
Baek Su-ryong, who left Pungwolhwagong's manor, walked with a much more relaxed pace compared to when he first came there..
Pungwol Painter, who was staring blankly at the back, muttered..
“Seeing that image makes me want to draw it again..”
“It's serious, it's serious.”
Geomno shook his head..
