The Thousand-Slayer Swordsman Association-Episode 142
EP.142 Ten Four - Blue Dragon Secretariat (12)
* * *
Should I say it’s consistent, or should I say there’s no development?.
No, calligraphy would say this.
“You are becoming more and more immature..”
Namgung Jincheon’s lips were tightly shut..
The slightly raised corners of his eyes made him look angry, so Seo-ye chuckled..
Even if I say this, it makes me feel happy..
Anyway, weren’t there a lot of worries you had while coming to meet Namgung Jincheon?.
What if he forgot himself, or turned into someone else?.
Can you explain why I felt sick to my stomach even the moment I followed him due to all the worries that came to mind?.
But fortunately, Namgung Jincheon didn’t seem to have changed much..
“It will continue like this?”
As Seo-ye gestured and spoke, Namgung Jincheon hurriedly withdrew his sword..
His gaze was directed to the floor, as if he was embarrassed..
All I could see was slightly reddened cheeks, which strangely made Calligraphy feel happy..
“…Why did you come here? black girl.”
“It's calligraphy. Black is not a bitch.”
“Heung, black is also a girl..”
“You are very special. They even call people by black names, but they don't call people by their names properly.?”
Namgung Jincheon’s shoulders trembled..
He seemed to think for a moment and then said.
“…I'm just being sincere with my sword..”
Is that also an excuse?.
Seo-ye stopped laughing and then continued..
“I'm here because I have something to tell you. At the same time, I can see your face too.”
The blush deepened on Namgung Jincheon’s sullen face..
“Is there a reason you need to see me??”
If you're going to hide something that feels good, hide it properly..
Seo-ye remembered the kiss from yesterday on that stupid face..
In fact, it was half-forced, but he didn't do it even though he had the power to avoid the kiss, so it can't be said that he disliked it very much..
“Do you need a reason? I just came because I wanted to see you..”
As I spoke more playfully, Namgung Jincheon started looking at the sky for no reason..
The corners of his mouth were full of energy, and it seemed like he was holding back a smile..
A face I want to tease a little more.
But unfortunately, that was not possible, so Seo-ye cleared her throat and said,.
“I got information about the Demonic Cult..”
Namgung Jincheon stiffened..
My head turned.
Seo Ye added a word with a serious face..
“I have intelligence that Mine is among the participants in the secretariat..”
got to the point.
*
The time when the sun sets.
Only then was Seo Ye able to meet all of Yongbongdan again..
Everyone's faces didn't change, which felt fortunate considering they had gone through so much trouble after breaking up..
“So, what is information??”
Danghwaseo asked in the office of Yongbongdan Hall..
Seo Ye shrugged and said.
“It's just as you heard. There is intelligence that horsemen participated in the finals of this year's secretariat..”
“I know that. actually….”
“You also caught a mine on the Maeng side. I heard Danju did something too.?”
Danghwaseo flinched..
The other members looked at the danghwaseo in surprise..
Through it, I was able to understand calligraphy.
“Oh, did you keep it a secret from the members as well??”
It seemed like it was handled with great secrecy..
“Sozer! What does that mean? There is a mine at this secretariat meeting.….”
“…I couldn't tell you because it was top secret. sorry.”
Danghwaseo, who answered Mokriwon, glared at Seoye with a sharpened face..
pretty scary face.
With that thought in mind, Seo Ye took a step back..
“sorry.”
“How did you know??”
“Aren't you looking down on me too much? Still, I am Hao Wen Zhou..”
“I hear you say that you have planted a treasure in your mind..”
“Maybe it’s not necessarily Meng An, right? They say that birds hear what you say during the day, and mice hear what you say at night..”
I was passing it around because I had no intention of revealing the source of the information..
Danghwaseo's face became more frowned... What can I do?.
Seo Ye had no intention of telling the truth..
That's why I came to Danghwaseo, not Maeng..
“Anyway, that's not important.?”
Seo Ye folded her arms..
“The important thing is that we have the information we have. And that information is quite useful information..”
“The reason I tell you?”
“Pay off the debt, and that's it. Mine people give me a headache too..”
Danghwaseo’s sunken gaze jabbed my whole body..
Calligraphy ignored them as much as possible..
I thought there was no need to be scared since I was the one with the information..
“…Let's listen first.”
Danghwaseo agreed..
Seo Ye took a deep breath and spoke..
“The first time was a small surprise..”
What I brought up was something that happened not long ago, when they were in the midst of turning Sacheon upside down..
“It was a time when we traveled all over Guizhou to normalize Haomun. We had to re-sign contracts with clients whose business had been cut off, and we had to replenish those who had died. So, I needed money..”
“That's relevant now.?”
“Yes. That money-related topic will be the core of our conversation now..”
“…tell me.”
“Top of the world.”
Danghwaseo’s fingertips trembled..
“It came from the top of the world. They said we would finance it..”
Haomun is the one who handles all the information of Jungwon Martial Arts..
It is said that his power has weakened now, but even so, if he sat in that position, he knew something about calligraphy..
“It was suspicious. Are they offering to provide funds just because they can extract something from Haomun, a place with great power?.”
“Couldn't it be an investment?.”
“Merchants aren't stupid. This would be even more true if you were the owner of the world's top tier, which in just 15 years had become a grand corps encompassing the entire central region. What I'm saying is that they are a more efficient group that creates their own information network than investing in Haomun. Because they have that kind of financial power..”
“so?”
“I refused. Even after that, I couldn't put my mind at ease, so I looked for it separately. Which direction is the flow of funds at the top of the world heading?.”
Knock, Knock.
The calligraphy pointed to Wuhan, Hubei Province, on the map spread out on the table..
“They are gathering here. And among the warriors sponsored by those humans, there were warriors who participated in the secret martial arts association..”
“It is common for the top to sponsor unmanned personnel.….”
“What if the sponsored warriors are Mine??”
Danghwaseo’s eyes got bigger..
Seo Ye said with a serious face..
“A mine captured from the army. All of them are sponsored by the Heavenly Chamber. It was not received directly, but through a detour route that took three or four steps..”
That's why I came all the way here to talk about it..
“Hao Mun believes that the top of the world is related to the demons..”
There was silence in the space..
*
Danghwaseo left that way to report..
The calligraphy did not necessarily follow the Tanghuashu, and the reason was that Hao Wenjue's face could not be revealed to the blind people..
Tang Hwa-seo also seemed to understand that point and did not add another word, so Seo-ye remained in the palace, looking out at the garden and spending time with Namgung Jincheon..
“…Is that information authentic?.”
Namgung Jincheon asked.
Seo Ye nodded..
“Yes, I don’t think the information I gained during the process was false. Of course, it is up to Maeng to decide whether to believe that and investigate separately..”
“….”
“why?”
“I thought that Joongwon Moorim was really complacent..”
“It's very surprising..”
“what do you mean.”
“You are a person who knows how to think seriously..”
Namgung Jincheon’s mouth was tightly shut..
Seoye chuckled and said.
“It's a joke. It can't be helped. Because it was that detailed. I also understand the Murim Alliance’s position..”
“The position of the Murim Alliance?”
“That's right. Is the Cheonha top a bit big? When you think of the midfield, the first thing that goes up and down is the top, and the path through which the mines related to them flowed in was also bypassed in three or four ways. To investigate that, Maeng might have to get into trouble with the merchant, and it must have been a burden to bear that risk and investigate the merchant..”
“I don't know.”
“Yeah, I thought you wouldn't understand..”
I wonder if he is more mature than I thought since he is a person who draws his sword first..
Seo Ye smiled slightly and continued:.
“Anyway, I'm going to give up on this now. I came here because I felt uncomfortable about finding out something for no reason, and I achieved my goal..”
“Are you going right back??”
“well.”
A glimpse of regret appeared on Namgung Jincheon’s face..
Seo Ye smiled and said.
“I'm thinking about going and seeing your dance routine..”
Namgung Jincheon’s eyes widened slightly..
“I'm going to enjoy watching the martial arts skills you boast about so much..”
The corners of Namgung Jincheon’s mouth tightened..
It seemed like he was trying to hold back laughter again..
He eventually cast his gaze forward and said.
“…You won't regret it.”
It was a statement full of confidence..
This was the moment when he seemed manly to the calligrapher..
Seo-ye jokingly asked, because it was both fitting and awkward at the same time..
“Okay, what if I lose??”
“I don't lose. Because I don't know defeat.”
“You know. Yongbong branch runner-up.”
Namgung Jincheon glared with wide eyes..
The whites of my eyes were bloodshot..
Calligraphy continued without heeding anything..
“I was wrong.?”
Seeing as I can't answer, it seems like I haven't erased it from my memory..
Meanwhile, Namgung Jincheon said.
“…Can you handle it? Those words.”
“Why do I endure that? I didn't even lose.”
Namgung Jincheon's eyes widened so much that he wondered what would happen if his eyeball fell out, but Seo Ye found that appearance so funny that he burst out laughing..
“I feel really stupid. Do not do that.”
“…i am not stupid.”
“Then do it as a child. A child who gives names to knives.”
“I am twenty-two.”
“Yes, I am twenty-five years old. To me, he’s just a kid.?”
Anyway, maybe because I grew up, I am a person who has no respect for my elders..
Seo Ye just smiled and waited for Namgung Jincheon’s answer..
Namgung Jincheon shook his fist and then said:.
“…But what if I win?.”
“Would you like to make a bet??”
“Yes. I bet on my legacy. I will make it to the finals and not lose even once..”
“I um… I'll bet that you'll be defeated by the Mukryong..”
Oh, I'm angry.
It was a provocation I did because I could see that Mukryong felt competitive, and it seems to have worked well..
In the meantime, my face looked betrayed, but there was a very cute side to it..
Calligraphy added one word.
“If I win, please give me one thing I want. In the name of Sega.”
“I don't agree.”
“It's fast?”
“Yeah, if I win….”
“I'll kiss you.”
Namgung Jincheon stiffened..
His face became so blank that I wondered if there was such an idiot in the world..
My mouth opened slightly, but now I don't think I would even notice if a fly got in..
Seo Ye grinned..
“He said he would give me a kiss. Until you say it's okay to stop.”
It was half a joke.
Seo-ye expected him to immediately tell her not to talk nonsense..
But the response that came back was unexpected..
“…My lips are sore.”
Namgung Jincheon said stuttering..
For some reason, my face looks blush..
calligraphy answered.
“I'm only interested in you. It's hard once, but twice is hard?”
Namgung Jincheon, whose face became even redder at those words, stood up..
Am I running away because I'm embarrassed?.
“Where are you going?”
I asked because my stomping steps were funny, and I was dazed by the answer I got back..
“I'm going to practice.”
He was already drawing his sword..
Seo-ye muttered as she looked at the spot he had left..
“really….”
Has a quick temper and is arrogant.
I burst out laughing.
