The Thousand-Slayer Swordsman Association-Episode 145
EP.145 Ten Chiefs - Blue Dragon Secretariat (15)
* * *
It was a match that ended in vain just as it was reaching its peak..
It was an act that inflamed not only the person involved, Ilwoon, but also many spectators who were looking forward to today's match..
Why not?.
What Hyeon-gong said at the last moment when he dropped his sword was so crude that anyone could tell it was a lie..
Hyeon-gong was so fine that not only experts who could know his remaining power could tell..
Naturally, the guest room that day was full of commotion with a different fever than the previous day..
“This is an act of dishonoring the sacred dance! Even if you are a female warrior, you cannot condone this kind of behavior.!”
“That's right! A dance is essentially a place of learning where people compete with each other's martial arts skills and move forward together. It is also a place where consciousness grows through competition! Seonryong is saying that it is an insult.!”
The main opinion was that.
But as always, there were counter-arguments..
“It is none other than a good dragon. I think it may be that he is reluctant to be swayed by victory or defeat..”
“I think so too. However, it doesn't mean that I won't use a sword that goes beyond the limits.?”
“How can something like that be called unmanned? That doesn't make sense.!”
“Isn't it unmanned and a dosa? What can't you do?.”
opinions clashed.
Those who said that their will should be recognized because they set the right example as a Taoist rather than a military man, and those who felt embarrassed as a martial artist despite that..
In a situation like this, it wouldn't have been surprising if he was cornered, but the reputation that Hyeon-gong had built up so far was a big help..
“Are you done talking now? I really think so.?”
“What are you going to do when you've said everything? Are you dissatisfied with the fact that I think so??”
“Sure then! hey! you come out!”
“That's right! Well done, you idiot! I haven't liked it since yesterday when I said Sword Dragon is the best! Let's decide who was right through a competition.!”
“Wow!!!”
Excited warriors began fistfighting in various rooms..
It was good that only the viewers were able to relieve the unburned heat, and it was not a bad situation since we ourselves were able to relieve our anger..
The only thing that was sad about this situation were the guest house owners who were worried about the broken fixtures..

Ilun's condition was not good..
Mokriwon knew it right away..
It's okay, it's not something you don't understand..
As Mok Ri-won spent a lot of time in the practice room, he knew how much effort Il-un had put into today's dance..
I also knew from experience how disappointing such a lackluster ending with Hyeon-gong would be..
A consensus is formed..
“Monk Ilun.”
Mok Ri-won came out on the floor and spoke to Il-un, who was looking at the moon..
Ilwoon turned his head blankly..
The area under my eyes was dark..
“…Oh my god.”
I smile brightly, but I have no strength..
Mo Ri-won was really worried about this and sat down next to Il-un..
“Please feel okay.?”
Ilwoon couldn't answer.
He frowned, looking truly bitter, and then just let out a sigh..
“…If it's okay, it's a lie.”
“…I don't know what to tell you..”
“I am so grateful that you came here to offer comfort..”
Ilwoon smiled and raised his head again to look at the moon..
Mokriwon remained silent and waited for Ilwoon to speak..
Mokriwon knows.
I know that there are moments when I feel comforted just by being by my side like this..
And at such times, it is human to want to express what is inside and feel relieved..
As if that wasn't wrong, Ilwoon's mouth finally opened..
“Can I tell you an embarrassing story??”
“speak.”
“Even though I have the karma of being a Buddhist, I like fighting..”
Mok Riwon opened his eyes wide..
Ilwoon laughed at that expression..
“The manager said that. Even the most ugly person is not this bad. Called.”
“It doesn't look like that at all. Monk Ilwoon….”
“Since we have prioritized amicable dialogue, you will naturally see it that way. In fact, I feel proud because it means that I behaved well..”
“….”
“But the fundamentals are like that. Before I became a Buddhist, I was an orphan without parents and a violent person who would often throw punches whenever I got the chance. If the manager didn't think favorably of me and bring me to Shaolin, I might have ended up as a black swordsman..”
Black sword is also good luck with fists..
Mok Ri-won listened to Il-un's words, remembering that it was not very suitable..
“Anyway, this means that I lived my life hiding myself. Actually, it wasn't that hard. The more I thought about Buddha's teachings, the greater they became, and the more I listened to them, the more fulfilling they were, so I couldn't dislike them. I even felt like I was truly blessed..”
“…I guess so.”
“So I turned away and ended up like this. In the end, when the moment of victory came, I became more obsessed with victory than my teachings as a Buddhist..”
Ilwoon closed his eyes..
“The moment the match ended poorly, I felt a sense of despair. She felt her whole body boiling, wanting to fight more. She felt like beating Shenryong to the floor with shame..”
After the harsh words had passed, Ilwoon spoke in a bitter tone..
“I haven't changed at all. My nature was still that of a fierce fighter who loved to fight. As I think about the moment, the fact comes to mind so clearly that it really hurts..”
It's a different situation.
It's also a different life.
But Mok Ri-won was able to recall deep sympathy with those words..
celestial life.
The star that wanted the slaughter given to Mok Ri-won just disturbed her heart at every moment just like that..
So, because it was Mokriwon, there was something I could say..
“…Monk Ilun was wrong..”
Ilwoon's head turned towards Mokriwon..
A look of puzzlement was written on his face..
“yes?”
“Monk Ilun said that was wrong. I know the words to prove it.”
Mokriwon laughed..
This is why these concerns are not unfamiliar, and this situation is also not unfamiliar..
That was it, to say the least..
Because the current Il-woon seemed like he was seeing himself as a child, Mok Ri-won wanted to offer words of comfort to Il-woon, just like his teacher, Mok Seon-o..
“I'll ask. There is a man with evil thoughts in his heart who wants to burn the whole world down. In order to secretly carry out her plan, the man first created a good reputation with those around her. It's a shame that she performed her good karma.”
Ilwoon nodded hesitantly..
Mokriwon continued by saying.
“He played really well. He performed good deeds that would be worthy of being a charlatan, such as rescuing a drowning child, providing food to the starving, and resolving the conflict between a estranged couple, even though he had such evil things in his heart..”
Mokriwon’s smile became brighter..
“In the end, the man failed to carry out his vicious plan. That's why she left the house before that. While trying to perform good deeds until the end, he died after rescuing civilians from bandits..”
“…That's a pretty impressive story..”
“Monk Ilun, you can say that this man is a wicked man.?”
Ilwoon was in trouble..
Then he smiled awkwardly and answered.
“…To others, you may seem like a very consultative person. But isn't that true in nature??”
“I don't think nature matters.”
“hmm?”
“In the end, he did not live as a good man and die as a good man. Also the ending of the story. I can confidently tell you what the man must have felt in that moment..”
“…What is that?”
“It’s a feeling of fulfillment..”
Mo Liwon placed his hand on his chest..
“He would have died satisfied. He died while saving people..”
“…Isn't this something you did for acting?.”
“Yes at first, but not at the last moment.?”
At least that's what Mokriwon thought..
“That's not true. If he really went out of his way to play a good man, he wouldn't have gone to the extent of putting his life in danger. In the meantime, he must have been concerned about preserving his name. i think so.”
No matter what your nature is, if you act against it, someday you will.
“It is said that good actions color people with goodness. The reason the man sacrificed himself at the last moment was because he had already become a good man due to the good karma he had accumulated throughout his life..”
It was a story my teacher Mok Seon-o told me..
In addition to this, Mok Ri-won knew many stories about the Ma Hyeop of Ganghohyeopgaekjeon and various people whom Mok Seon-oh had even met in person..
So believe it.
What is more important than nature is will..
Even if fate is harsh, humans have the power to overcome it..
“I think Monk Ilun would do the same. Even if you think you are not a Buddhist, the world and this Mokriwon see Monk Il-un as a true Buddhist. And a person who will become more like a Buddhist. As long as Monk Ilun does not let go of himself and does not give in to the spirit of fighting, I think it will become easier to endure as the days go by. If you do that, one day you will become a perfect Buddhist in the eyes of Monk Ilun.?”
Mok Riwon finished his speech with that..
Ilwoon opened his eyes wide and blinked..
It feels like the emotions are fluctuating inside..
At the end, Ilwoon slowly smiled..
It looked a little better than before..
These words may not have completely comforted him..
However, it may have caused only a small ripple..
The rest was up to Ilun..
And in Mok Ri-won's opinion, Il-un was a mature enough person to take even this little comfort as nourishment..
“…I will listen carefully.”
Ilwoon smiled weakly.
He closed his eyes and smiled deeply as if he was savoring something..
“I never dreamed that I would receive such comfort from the Lord of the Trees..”
Mo Riwon tilted his head..
“exactly?”
“Yes, because he is so innocent..”
It sounded like an insult, but it didn't sound like that, so Mok Ri-won laughed..
“I guess that means he has a very generous side! I don't know if this is acting too manly! I guess I'll have to show a more serious side in the future.!”
“Hehehe, hahahahaha!”
Ilwoon laughed while holding his belly button..
Mok Riwon also laughed along with him..
The sound of laughter that continues for a long time fills the garden..
After this went on for quite some time, Ilwoon wiped away his tears and said,.
“Come to think of it, tomorrow is the Lord's wedding ceremony..”
“exactly!”
“The opponent….”
As Ilwoon was struggling to remember, Mokriwon spoke vigorously..
“Lord Jeokundae!”
Strong praise for Jeokundaeju.
A severe non-mu addict who abandoned his mission and appeared in this non-mu.
Mok Riwon was quite looking forward to the match with him..
Ilwoon said in surprise.
“You are meeting a strong enemy. It's still only at 64..”
“I don't think it's bad! How can I hope that the enemy is at my level in this tough river? Besides, I'm confident I'll win.?”
Mo Liwon believed in the newly completed Manlyeoni Sword's three types and the black night worn on his waist..
Bimu, no matter how difficult it is, I am confident that I will be the one to emerge victorious at the end..
Ilwoon laughed along with that deep smile and said,.
“…Is that so. Then I will support you with peace of mind..”
Mo Liwon clenched his fist and answered..
“I will definitely climb up to the level of the monk.!”
"Lord Mokshi, I haven’t fallen yet.."
"Achacha."
Mo Riwon scratched the back of his neck..
Ilwoon laughed even louder.
After that, Mok Ri-won talked to Il-un quite a bit, and went back and got enough sleep..
The rainy day dawned like that..
