The Thousand-Slayer Swordsman Association-Episode 183
EP.183 Chapter 19 - Cheonghae, rich man (3)
* * *
Dealing with the demons was easy..
This is because Sega's power was too strong to win with a group of about 20 people, including at most one Super Ultimate..
No, in fact, even if Zhuge Byeok had been alone, he could have taken care of them all..
Among the Sega warriors organizing the body, Mo Ri-won could not help but express deep admiration for Zhuge Byeok's state of mind..
‘We are increasing the experience of the warriors..’
Zhuge Byeo did not participate in this battle in earnest..
He simply coordinated the flow of the battlefield by providing help to the extent of sending energy waves to those who seemed likely to be fatally wounded..
Thanks to this, Sega's strength consists of only a few lightly injured people. Should we say that he is truly worthy of being called the True King?.
It was a fact that even Mok Ri-won knew that his perspective on the battlefield was unique..
“You don't have to look at it so much..”
Zhuge Shan approached and spoke in a low voice..
“hmm?”
“He's just a nasty person who enjoys sitting on the sidelines..”
Zhugeshan spoke jokingly, but there was a level of disdain that even Mo Liwon could tell..
Mo Ri-won pursed his lips for a moment, then said this to Zhuge-san..
“I think it's right to admit what needs to be acknowledged..”
Zhuge Shan's eyes opened wide..
Soon he burst into laughter..
“…Yes, that is correct. I'm sorry. I'm talking too emotionally..”
“no. I support my brother Zhuge.”
“Thank you for your words. Things are slowly getting sorted out. Let's go now.”
Zhuge Shan faced the ranks..
Mokriwon raised a small concern..
‘You're not like my older brother Jegal..’
Although it is not revealed much due to his usual behavior, the Jegal Mountain that Mok Ri-won knew was always a relaxed person who tried to maintain fairness in his perspective on events and situations..
Because of this, Tanghwaseo often sought advice from Zhugeshan regarding Dan affairs..
But it doesn't look like that at all now..
Is it a grudge against Sega or a grudge against Zhuge Biao?.
Zhuge Shan was now losing his greatest strengths: fairness and composure..
‘I'll have to keep an eye on it..’
Mokriwon raised awareness.
*
Sega's ranks entered the foot of a mountain..
And Mok Ri-won reunited with Mile Seok there..
“Girl King!”
“You can hear it even if you don't sing it that loudly. Hey.”
Miles was grinning with his arms crossed..
Mok Riwon ran to Mile Seok feeling very happy..
“Have you been here this whole time??”
“Yes, I was following the traces of demons..”
“The performance….”
“Let's get together and talk.”
Mile Seok's eyes turned to Zhuge Wall..
Zhuge Byeok bowed his head once and spoke to the warriors..
“Prepare to camp here..”
“yes!”
It's already sunset.
The warriors began distributing supplies everywhere under Zhuge Byeok's instructions, and in the meantime, Zhuge Byeok and Jegal San approached and heard what Mile Seok had investigated..
“There is an elder level demon here..”
“Is this a definite fact? I can't believe you haven't left yet….”
“The traces we discovered can be seen nearby. Seeing as I can't feel it even when I try to expand the energy, it looks like they're using a strategy to block the energy waves..”
“So this is what I need..”
“That's right, if it's true, no one but you will be able to find a trace of it..”
Mok Riwon also showed great sympathy with what Mile Seok said..
There was no need to go far. How was the formation blocking the area below the altar in the Yunnan Blood Demon Battle?.
Even the mile stone that reached transcendence would not have been able to figure it out if it weren't for the coincidence of luck..
Even though they are vicious demons, their skills cannot be ignored..
In war, it is impossible to let down your guard, so it was necessary to be as alert as possible on this side as well..
“It must be a search war..”
“Yes, I plan on moving before dawn tomorrow, so get some rest..”
Mok Riwon nodded at what Mile Seok said..
The first night passed like that..
*
The investigation continued for three more days..
In a mountain range with over a hundred visible peaks, chasing a moving person rather than a still object was quite arduous, and the level of difficulty was extremely high..
But that doesn't mean there was no result..
“It's a trace again!”
Traces, clearly traces of their travels, were there..
It's the seventh time.
Traces of camping left behind by human hands and corpses scattered everywhere..
Even though they rarely appear, they were able to leave traces here and there so we could follow them..
No, Sega was making them ‘keep up’..
“It's a trap..”
When Zhuge Byeok spoke, Mile Seok listened..
“Yes, you are setting a trap so blatantly..”
“It's an unavoidable trap..”
“It's a trap that shouldn't be avoided. They know that too..”
Mo Riwon nodded at the two people’s story..
‘Cheonghae is a land in the central plains. If wolves commit massacres here and leave traces behind, we have no choice but to chase them..’
That is because it is the identity of the Baekdo martial arts group..
It's nasty.
If it comes out like this, it means that there is something planned in the enemy's camp, but it's hard to know, so it's enough to fill you with anxiety..
So what can we do?.
“We will make our defenses more thorough..”
“Do it like that.”
All I can do is chase after you.
There is no one left to spare as the demons are rampant right now to hope for military support..
Also, there is no point in pushing the opponent with numbers when it comes to transcendence..
‘Why?….’
I smell blood.
very terribly.
*
It was only after two more days that I was able to find the demons..
To be exact, they showed up.
“The demons are encamped after crossing five more peaks. Although it could hardly be considered a camping trip, it appears that they have clearly established a base. There is a fence surrounding it….”
“There must be a plan in place.”
Zhuge Byeok said.
He opened his closed eyes and added more words..
“Even from this close, I can't feel Jin's energy. It must be a form of assimilation into nature by hiding the sense of heterogeneity. There will be no way for them to escape from their base. The calculation is that if they bring us in, they will win..”
“What should I do?.”
Zhuge Byeok gave an immediate answer to Mile Seok’s words..
“going.”
There was no reason not to go..
No, you shouldn't miss it here..
Part of me wants to drag him out, but there's no way the people who have lured him in so persistently wouldn't have prepared that level of defense..
That base where they set up camp will have all the requirements they need to set up camp..
“If it's just one elder, the two of us can finish it. If there are two elders, one can take charge of each task. The military is also the elite of the elite, and the warriors of the Zhuge Dynasty are basically well-versed in all preparations for battle..”
“Won didn't learn that stuff..”
“It will be okay. From what I have observed so far, it seems that there is a certain number of ways to identify an opponent who is hidden by the formation method. don't you know?”
“…He's a guy with good sense, though..”
“There's nothing to worry about.”
Zhuge Byeo got up from his seat..
mileseok asked.
“Where are you going??”
“to meet my son.”
“He really hates you..”
“….”
Zhuge Byeo had no excuses..
The reason why his son, Zhuge Shan, hates him, is because he is the one who knows and understands it better than anyone else..
“…It's probably because they're bad parents..”
“Please express yourself. Hey. Isn't it because you're so stiff that you can't even say what's on your mind?.”
“This is because nothing will change even if you say it..”
“You mean that damn insulation??”
Zhuge Byeok's fist was clenched..
The sky is so indifferent that the star given to its own child is still unknown to Mile-seok and Mok Seon-oh. And he had nothing but himself.
A star that takes away everything the person who gave birth to a star loves and uses that sadness as nourishment to grow its owner. What a vicious star this is!.
“…Resentment becomes firewood. But sadness brings a person to his knees.”
Zhuge Byeo walked out and left a message..
“All I can do is be San-i's enemy so that he doesn't fall apart..”
There was a past where even expressing one's feelings was considered a sin, so all Zhuge Byeo could do was this..
“you fool.”
Miles clicked his tongue..
*
Zhuge Shan remembers that Zhuge Byeok was always expressionless..
Since his childhood, which he no longer remembers, he was a man who never showed anything other than an expressionless face to Zhuge Shan..
“Did you have an accident again?.”
That's what I heard the most.
When I think about it now, it's a really funny reason. Things like going in and out of a shithouse or going outside the family home and fighting with the kids..
Of course, Zhuge Shan also knew that such a thing was necessary in terms of discipline..
That's not what Zhuge Shan was upset about..
“I think my mother and father hate me.”
“why do you think that?”
“They always just tell you not to cause trouble and then immediately kick you out. Even at dinner, you don’t even look at me..”
It was complete indifference..
Zhuge Byeok's temper was a wound to young Zhuge San, and it was his mother's role to comfort him..
My mother always smiles and answers like that..
“Is there anyone in this world who loves you more than your father?.”
“Even more than your mother??”
“Of course, this ending is excluded. Does this guy even doubt his mother now??”
“It's not like that!”
“Yeah, yeah.”
My mother’s words were sweet. Her smile was elegant, and she never scolded and kicked me out like Zhuge Wall did..
My mother always comforted me by hugging me tightly after disciplining me to the fullest..
Maybe the gap was too big.
Zhuge Shan hated the people of the family who persecuted his mother..
I hated Zhuge Byeok for not protecting his mother..
“Isn’t your mother the mistress of the Zhuge family?! Everyone is stupid! It's clear that your previous status doesn't matter at all, so why are you being so cruel??!”
“It's important. The background is.”
“How is that so??”
“Because you become an ally..”
His mother said, 'You'll understand when you grow up,' but Zhuge Shan still didn't understand..
It was not that I did not understand the necessity of an arranged marriage..
‘The Zhuge Dynasty did not understand that an arranged marriage was necessary..
Because Zhuge Shiga is too big a giant for him..
This is because it is not a group that will collapse if you do not make allies through marriage..
Therefore, young Zhuge Shan always fought against the elders and family who persecuted his mother, and the more he fought, the more distorted the family's gaze toward his mother became..
I heard that one day.
“A wicked woman is trying to gain power by using the Archduke as her leader..”
It was shocking.
The elders who say that to the wife of the Zhuge family and the senior figures of the family who agree with it.
But the truly shocking thing is not over..
“The head of the family will get married. The opponent is….”
The day I was out in the garden with my mother, the elder informed me that the daughter of a great family was going to marry the head of the family..
It was a one-sided notice, and the look on his mother's face that day was...….
‘How can you be so sad? The matriarch is a man who is not worthy of her mother's sorrow..’
He had a really sad expression.
That's what Zhuge Shan thought..
“He's just a nasty person who enjoys sitting on the sidelines..”
Zhugeshan spoke jokingly, but there was a level of disdain that even Mo Liwon could tell..
