Chapter 58
##58fury. Sura blood heaven sword)
A man with an umbrella was looking down the Heonwon River..
“Heonwon River student. I asked what are you doing here?.”
An expression that goes beyond being blunt and has no emotion..
Well-combed hair and neat clothes even on rainy days.
The man who seemed like he could hardly find a gap was the only one-time instructor at Cheongryong Academy..
“Namgoongsu…….”
“Put a teacher behind you.”
“…….”
Namgungsu gathered his eyebrows and looked at the condition of Heonwon River where he was lying..
“It looks like you're hurt here and there. Did you do a massage? There won't be many students who would hurt you this much... … . Were there many opponents??”
“Don't worry about it and just go on your way..”
Heonwon-gang responded bluntly..
Although they are now friendly with each other, she remembered that Namgungsu paid a lot of attention to her in the early days of her admission..
-You have talent. But why don’t you train hard??
-Because I don't want to do it..
-……why?
-What do you say when asked why you don't like something?.
-…….
Heonwon River started to go awry from the beginning of its entrance..
Namgungsu, who felt that his talent was a waste, tried to persuade Heonwongang several more times, but Heonwongang just avoided him every time..
In the end, Namgungsu classified Heonwongang as a problem child who could not be taught and stopped paying attention to him..
Because he had many students to teach, even if it wasn't Heonwon River..
“Just pretend you didn’t see it and just pass by. You're busy, so don't worry about me..”
Namgungsu narrowed his eyes and clicked his tongue lightly..
“Heonwon River student. This is my third year. I'm seventeen.”
“…….”
“Don’t you think that 17 is the age when a martial artist should be responsible for his or her own actions and words?.”
“…….”
“Why did you enter the Blue Dragon Academy? Because your parents sent you? Because you need a diploma? Did you follow because everyone else was going??”
Heonwongang glared at Namgungsu and gritted his teeth..
However, Namgoongsu did not stop what he was trying to say..
“You have let me and the other instructors down for three years. Although he had great talent, he didn't put in any effort and often caused violent incidents. But I watched it several times. Why do you think? Because I thought that one day I would grow up and work hard..”
“…….”
“But there is a limit to what we can see.”
Namgungsu was shielding Heonwongang from the pouring rain with his umbrella, but his words hurt Heonwongang several times more..
“I'd rather drop out.”
“…….”
A cold voice without emotion.
Namgungsu looked coldly at Heonwongang, who was lying in a mess..
“We will no longer tolerate anything that tarnishes the reputation of Cheongryong Academy. If you're going to act like this from now on, I recommend you drop out..”
“Why are you telling me to drop out?……!”
“Heonwon River.”
At that moment, Heonwon-gang felt a suffocating feeling of death tightening around his neck..
“Does the world seem easy??”
Namgungsu just looked down at him quietly, but his eyes were full of contempt for Heonwongang..
“If you want to achieve something, you have to work hard. Still, I wonder if I will reach it or not for the rest of my life. A guy like you, who lives as he pleases and whines when he loses a fight, can't do anything..”
Namgungsu paused for a moment and held out his hand as if benevolent..
“Catch it. This is the last chance I give you. Come to my class starting tomorrow. This is the last opportunity that can change your life..”
If other people saw it, they would be very surprised..
Although it was a coercive voice and attitude, it was rare for Namgoongsu to give individual students such an opportunity..
But instead of holding his hand, Heonwongang gritted his teeth and glared at Namgungsu..
“No need. That kind of reason.”
It was because Namgungsu’s eyes looking down at him resembled the head of the Hebei Paeng family that he had seen as a child..
“It doesn't deviate from what I expected..”
A small sneer appeared on Namgungsu’s cold expression..
“At this moment, I have decided not to give you a diploma..”
Cheongryong Academy’s only one-time instructor.
Namgungsu's influence in the academy surpassed that of Guanzhou's Lujunsang..
If he set his mind to do it, there was almost nothing impossible at Blue Dragon Academy..
“Enjoy the remainder of your school life until you are expelled..”
“……Do whatever you want.”
“As a last consideration, leave your umbrella here..”
Namgungsu placed the umbrella he was holding next to Heonwongang’s face..
And I opened the umbrella I brought as a spare..
“I always carry two with me in case of an unexpected situation..”
“……I didn't ask.”
Well done.
Nam Goong-su, with his new umbrella wide open, turned around and walked away in the rain..
Heonwongang softly cursed at his shrinking back..
“unlucky person…….”
I was angry at the look in Namgungsu’s eyes that despised me..
At the same time, regret flooded me..
Should I have held that hand earlier??
Should I have held that hand that was said to be my last chance and made every effort from now on??
‘no. It was no use holding on.’
Namgungsu is basically a swordsman..
Of course, he is called a one-hit instructor because he is good at most other martial arts, but Namgungsu's classes are always based on swords..
On the other hand, the martial arts of the Heonwon family are martial arts..
Home appliance martial arts passed down through the family from generation to generation.
But there is a problem with their martial arts skills..
-With the martial arts we have now... … Even if you do well, mastery at the peak will be your limit..
I remember my father's words.
The reason why young Heonwon-gang was frustrated.
This was because I felt that there was a clear limit to how strong the Heonwon family could become through martial arts..
His father, the head of the Heonwon family, had a martial arts level similar to that of the head of the Paeng family..
-If only Pacheon Island, or at least Jincheon Island, could be completely restored.…….
The original copy of Jincheondo was lost during the Gwangmahyeolsa. Afterwards, it was barely restored, but it was half-assed and lacking in some way..
The more he learned Jincheondo, the more Heonwongang realized that fact..
“……no. This is all just an excuse.”
I didn't try to reach my limit because the limit was clearly visible..
If you tried to your limit... … Maybe I could have broken that limit myself..
Shoot ahhh…….
The rain showed no signs of weakening..
The umbrella Namgungsu had left behind was blocking the rain pouring down on his face, but the floor of the gym was filled with rainwater and his wet body was trembling..
I was in a daze..
-Did I look like that kind of guy in your eyes??
-I'm sorry. There's not much I can't do for you…….
-……Did you use water on my son??
-You have talent. But why don’t you train hard??
In his mind, the words of Paeng Sa-hyeok, his father, the head of the Paeng family, and Nam Gung-su constantly tormented him..
‘please stop!’
I closed my eyes tightly. I felt terrible fatigue..
The wound inflicted by Paeng Sa-hyeok was increasingly throbbing, but I didn't have the strength to move even a finger..
To make matters worse, my body gradually stiffened from the cold rainwater..
“ha…….”
When I opened my mouth, white breath came out..
The strength was slowly draining from my whole body..
‘Is it going to freeze like this? It's an ending fit for a fool..’
Suddenly it occurred to me that this might not be so bad, and I burst out laughing..
It was then.
“Baby, look at how his arms are stretched out nicely. I'm splitting into what's good?”
At first I thought I heard it wrong.
“Wake up, man. What are you doing in the middle of the training ground??”
There's no way I can hear this voice in my last moments..
“You sleep in a place like this and your mouth turns.?”
Unlike Namgoongsu's arrogant and forceful way of speaking, he speaks in a relaxed manner, like a local hangout..
“Look at how I can hear everything and pretend not to hear it. Do you think I will just go away if I ignore it? There's no way.”
“no way…….”
The moment Heonwongang opened his eyes, the umbrella that was covering his face flew to the side with a thud..
In other words, Heonwon River was struck by water as soon as he opened his eyes..
“Ufufufu! This is crazy!”
Suddenly, where did such strength come from, Heonwon-gang, who was dying, suddenly raised his upper body..
And he shouted, even pointing a point at the person who threw water at him..
“White Water Dragon!”
“I should call you teacher.”
Baek Su-ryong was squatting in front of the Heonwon River and smiling..
* * *
Shivering.
Heonwon-gang, who had a blanket over his shoulders, trembled..
“Ugh…….”
It was still cold season.
After lying injured for several hours on a rainy day, it was natural for me to feel achy..
“Drink. The cold will go away..”
I handed Heon Won-gang some warm tea..
He took a few sips of tea with trembling hands and looked at me with a face red from a cold..
Then he suddenly lowered his head and muttered in a voice as loud as a mosquito..
“I wasn't a genius.”
“……What are you talking about suddenly??”
Did this kid get hit by Paeng Sa-hyuk and even get brain damage?.
The fact that Heonwon-gang lost to Paeng Sa-hyeok had already become a rumor throughout the academy..
As I looked at him with a puzzled expression, Paeng Sa-hyuk bit his lip and began to tell the story of how he ended up lying in the training ground..
“……So I ended up fighting with Paeng Sahyeok... … In the end I couldn't do anything…….”
When the rambling Heonwon lecture was over, I clicked my tongue..
This guy was completely mistaken about something..
“What if you're a genius? Did you think you could become the best in the world without making any effort? And is Panga Sogaju a dunjae? That guy is also a guy who deserves to be heard..”
“…….”
Even after my explanation, Heonwon-gang's eyes were as blurry as the eyes of rotten youngsters..
We have not yet recovered from the shock of overwhelming defeat..
I sighed and continued..
“How great would it be if you could increase your inner strength just by eating rice and become a world-beater by simply swinging your arms and legs? But even a genius can reach his destination if he works hard. It's just that the path is easier than others.”
“There is no way for me here.”
Heonwon-gang looked at me and had the expression of someone who had made up his mind..
The moment I saw that expression, I knew from decades of experience that he was about to cause some trouble..
Sure enough.
“I'm going to drop out of Cheongryong Academy..”
I immediately hit Heonwon River on the head..
Wow!
“evil! Why are you hitting me?!”
“This is just.”
When I raised my hand, Heonwongang flinched and took a step back. I was so sick that I had no strength to resist..
“This is a very dirty bastard. what? Drop out? My father bowed down in the bungalow, fed and clothed me, and sent me to the Cheongryong Academy, and what? So, are you saying I’m going to live like this for the rest of my life??”
“It's not like that.!”
Heonwon-gang shouted and looked straight at me and said..
“From now on, I won't live like a fool. I will become a ronin.”
Ronin? What kind of novel bullshit is this??
There was a lot I wanted to say, but Heon Won-gang's eyes were so serious that I decided to listen more first..
“…… I was lying down earlier and thinking about a lot of things. Where did it go wrong? Why was I wasting my life like this? shit. I don't know why I'm telling you this... … Anyway, in the end, it's because of martial arts..”
“Why is martial arts?”
In response to my question, Heonwon River sighed with a bitter look on his face..
“How much do you know about the martial arts of the Heonwon family??”
“Projection. In particular, Jincheon Dobeop and Pacheon Dobeop are famous for being strong..”
I know one more thing here, but I didn't bother to say it.
Heonwon-gang nodded with a gloomy expression..
“that's right. But Gwang… … As a demon blood master, the only thing left in our family now is half of Jincheondo. This martial arts skill has clear limits..”
“What does that have to do with being a ronin? You can't believe it…….”
As if my prediction was correct, Heon Won-gang nodded, his eyes shining brightly..
“Based on Jincheondo, I will complete my own martial arts through practice. We will use that martial arts as a new foundation to revive the Heonwon family..”
The meaning was quite imaginary.
But I couldn't stop looking at Heonwon River..
Because he didn't even know what he was talking about..
“Anyway, Namgoongsu also told me to drop out. He said he would no longer forgive tarnishing the reputation of the academy. Even if you go, you won't be able to get a diploma. good. I won't waste any more time either. Become a ronin, wander around the battlefield, and gain practical combat experience.…….”
Wow!
This time, I made up my mind and hit him..
“Damn it! Why are you hitting me again?!”
Heonwon River was rolling around on the floor, and there were tears in his eyes..
“I hit you because you deserve it.”
I sighed deeply..
It's good that I came to my senses and made up my mind, but after all, I'm a ronin..
-……I don't regret it. Because it was to complete martial arts..
In case anyone says they are of the same blood as Gwangma, what they do is similar..
White people's non-action.
In order to perfect his martial arts skills, Gwangma embarked on a battle of life and death against a hundred masters..
And in the end, I met the end I knew..
I sighed and said.
“Don't think about unnecessary things and just go to school quietly..”
“As I said, there is nothing more to learn here. To complete your own martial arts…….”
“Just like that. Listen to me first.”
When I raised my hand, Heonwongang flinched and kept his mouth shut..
“First of all, there is a lack of basis for the logic of completing martial arts through practical training. It is an old-fashioned idea that risking one's life is better than a good educational environment or guidance from a good teacher..”
Of course, if you are a martial artist who is so accomplished that you do not need the guidance of a teacher, risking your life in real combat will be of great help, but Heonwon-gang was still a young boy who was far from reaching that level..
“And you don't have to make your own martial arts. Because there are martial arts that need to be learned first..”
“……It's a martial art that needs to be learned.?”
I said, looking at Master Gwangma's face as if he had gone back decades..
“I will teach you a method of Taoism. It is the method of a former master who is now deceased, and it is the method that only I know in this world. I assure you, it is a method that is no less than Jincheondo or Pacheondo..”
Heonwon-gang's eyes widened when he heard that he would teach Taoism..
In martial arts, we never teach our martial arts to others..
Most of what is taught at Odae Academy, including the Blue Dragon Academy, is not about martial arts, but how to use martial arts and how to deal with them..
Heonwon River asked with a trembling voice..
“I will teach you the martial arts techniques of a Sentai master.?”
“okay.”
“why?”
I think the master of this Taoism would want it that way..
Since I couldn't say that, I gave another reason..
“Because I have to win the Tianmu Festival..”
At my answer, Heonwon-gang burst out laughing as if it was absurd, but then spoke with a serious expression..
“It's not easy to suddenly learn a different Taoism. You can learn it enough to use it in practice within a year.…….”
“So you're saying you don't want to learn??”
“……I want to try anything if I can become stronger. Because no matter how hard it is, it’s okay…….”
It certainly seems like he came to his senses after being broken by Paeng Sa-hyuk..
I said with a grin..
“It will be easier to adapt than you think.”
Because the root of martial arts that I will teach is Heonwonse..
I recalled a conversation I had with Master Gwangma in the past..
-Master Gwangma. But what is the name of this method you invented??
-……It was named Surahyeolcheondo..
Sura blood heaven sword)
Gwangma, who compiled all the martial arts of the Heonwon family, completed the world-class martial arts with the enlightenment he gained through Baekinbi martial arts..
I decided to teach this method perfected by Gwangma to his descendant, Heonwongang..
‘Heonwon River. I will make you the best thief in the world.’
