The Thousand-Slayer Swordsman Association-Episode 225
EP.226 Chapter 2 - Appearance, Meeting (6)
* * *
Murimmaeng hermitage somewhere.
Mokriwon was sipping tea after meeting a nice person..
“So, it's been closed for 7 years?.”
“I've been so absorbed in training that seven years have already passed..”
“It could be so. Is your personality a bit daring?.”
“You don't have to lift it like that. lender.”
The thing on the other side is Geumgeom Kwon Pyo-wol..
Among the great lords of Meng, he was the man who was closest to Mo Ri-won..
It was like that. Mok Riwon returned to Maeng after 7 years and was meeting people he had a connection with in the past one by one..
“But….”
Kwon Pyo-wol's eyes looked up and down Mokriwon..
Then he smiled and said.
“Hmm, for some reason the atmosphere has changed a lot. I feel a little more mature.”
“7It's been a year.”
“7There are people who do not change even after years. Jeokundaeju is like that. I don't know when that guy will grow up.. ”
Kwon Pyo-wol sighed as if in pain..
“I guess he turned his back on me by making a sharp move to a warrior walking down the street not long ago. How difficult was it to clean it up?.”
“You are a consistent person. But why is the Lord doing that??”
“Oh, you're not the leader anymore..”
“huh?”
A shy smile appeared on Kwon Pyo-wol’s face..
“Haha, it’s been 7 years, isn’t it? It's not like I've forgotten what I was aiming for at the time.?”
“ah!”
In an instant, Mok Riwon’s eyes widened significantly..
Baekgeom Daeju Geumgeom Kwon Pyo-wol, there was another word to describe him 7 years ago in Maeng..
“I joined the cabinet.?!”
“Thankfully, I was given a position as head of the cabinet..”
He was the next cabinet candidate. And Kwon Pyo-wol became a real cabinet leader..
Mo Riwon smiled broadly..
“Congratulations! There must have been a slope!”
“I don't know if it's something to celebrate. It's because I'm so busy with work..”
“Still, it's not a dream come true!”
Indeed, there seems to be a reason why his clothes and behavior have become a little more dignified than 7 years ago..
This truly auspicious news makes my heart warm..
Also, Mokriwon was curious, so he asked a question right away..
“So how are the other major and minor owners doing? I heard that Lord Jeokundae is still the same.….”
“Ki Taewoon is assisting me. He's a footnote in the department.”
“I think the Great Blue Dragon also went to the cabinet.!”
“That's right, he must have felt so unfair that he narrowly missed out on being the head of the cabinet, so he gets really angry when he gets drunk..”
“Then what about Jinwondanju??”
“Our Donggangbulgoe is still sober..”
“Haha! You still have the same beard.?”
“My goatee's beard has grown a lot longer in 7 years..”
As the story progressed, a smile never left Mok Riwon's face..
The story continued for a long time about what had happened in the group, what changes the people we knew had changed, and who came in and who left..
Then, suddenly, a story came to mind, and Mok Ri-won asked carefully..
“big… no, cabinet lord.”
“hmm?”
“…I heard some news about you.?”
Even Gwon Pyo-wol knew that he was not talking about the current leader, Gyeonggung..
He smiled bitterly for a moment, then shook his head..
“You didn't tell anyone your destination. You know. His personality.”
“I guess so….”
In the end, doesn’t Kwon Pyo-wold know the news about Sa Baek-un?.
As I sighed in regret, Kwon Pyo-wol said:.
“There's nothing to worry about. Aren't you the former leader and no one else? Moreover, a grand banquet was held before leaving. He just wants to rest. He will return when the time is right.”
Kwon Pyo-wol poured more tea into Mokriwon’s cup..
“So why not worry about something else??”
“Umm?”
“Didn’t you come to participate in the Blue Dragon Secretariat??”
“Oh, that's right.….”
At that moment, a mischievous smile appeared on Kwon Pyo-wol’s face..
“I guess I'll meet you then. It's the end of the day.”
Shockingly, Mok Riwon’s shoulders trembled..
There was a crooked smile on my lips..
Mokriwon's reaction was quite intense as he was already very worried about the incident..
Lift your lips and spit out the words, then swallow them and repeat.
Another sigh at the end.
“…That's right, I'm sure we'll meet.”
“You and the party leader will advance straight to the finals, so maybe we can meet in Daejeon..”
Meet Danghwaseo and his opponent.….
Mok Riwon recalled that scene..
I don't know, but it wasn't a very good picture..
“Oh, have we already met??”
“That's not the case. She hasn't met Sojeo yet..”
“hmm? I guess our paths diverged. I met you at the mall just today..”
“….”
Mo Liwon bowed his head and looked at the teacup..
My heart calms as I look at the small ripples of the water..
Mo Ri-won has not yet decided what to say to Dang Hwa-seo..
How should I apologize to her for making her wait so long? It wasn't even easy to choose the words..
To be honest, that was the reason why I was still meeting someone else first even though I could have already gone there..
“…Mukryong.”
Mok Riwon raised his head..
Kwon Pyo-wol was smiling strangely..
“Why are you hesitating so much?.”
It was a calm smile. Nevertheless, it is playful, and at the same time serious, it is a smile that conveys the meaning of support..
Mok Riwon’s hands were in strength..
A shy smile appeared on his face..
“That's right.”
“I believe that if you are wise, you will get through it..”
“Thank you for your support.”
“Well, if you can't decide, try using Handsome Guy. What are you doing with that proud face?.”
“I'll leave it as a last resort..”
Mok Riwon got up from his seat..
“I guess I'll just have to go now. I have an appointment with my older brother Zhuge..”
“Please do so. I also have to go and finish my work soon..”
“If I get a chance, I will come again.”
Mok Ri-won took possession of the gun..
Kwon Pyo-wol also took the lead..
“It was really nice to meet you again..”
That's how the reunion ended..
*
Mokriwon continued to walk around the area after that..
Fortunately, the building itself hasn't changed much from what he knew..
However, what has changed is that there are more buildings built for repairs and a few closed ones..
Anyway, as I walked for a while, lost in memories, I met many people in Mokriwon..
“Mumumumumumumuukryong Daehyup!”
“Jinwondanju! As I heard, the goatee's beard got longer.!”
First, I met Jinwondanju Gyeondong..
He greeted Mok-ri-won with a loud fuss, and Mok-ri-won was tied up in his chatter for a long time..
I finally managed to shake him off and Kang Chan, the owner of Jeokundae, appeared..
“Mukryong! You're back! No, this is not the time! Even if it’s a reunion dance…!”
As I heard, Jeokwundaeju still welcomed Mokriwon in his own way..
Mo Riwon waved off the kiss with a soft rebuff and walked past him..
Then, I met Ki Tae-woon, who was the head of the Blue Dragon and is now a deputy head of the cabinet..
I met the former head of the Baekgeomdae that Kwon Pyo-wol left, and many other people..
There was a place we finally arrived at..
‘It's closed..’
The nostalgic gate was closed tightly..
It was once the pavilion of Yongbongdan, another house in Mokriwon..
Should I go back like this?.
A thought came to mind for a moment, but what came to mind at the same time were Kwon Pyo-wol's words..
-Why are you hesitating so much?.
What are those words that stop me from leaving?.
Mok Riwon smiled slightly and jumped over the fence..
“ah….”
Only then will the landscape, which has not changed at all, appear..
Neat trees in the garden and a pond between them.
Three training hall buildings and the accommodation, office, and restaurant next to them.
Mok Riwon walked aimlessly around the shrine as memories of moments that were so enjoyable just looking at them passed by..
Then I realized something..
‘Management was continuing..’
7The pavilion of Yongbongdan, which had not been used since that day a year ago, looked as clean as if it had been cleaned up just yesterday..
Probably Danghwaseo or Zhuge Mountain..
At the sight of another face, Mo Riwon felt a sense of tightness in his stomach..
Maybe that was why.
After stopping by the room in the accommodation and the training hall, Mok Ri-won inadvertently headed to a certain spot..
It was a place I naturally headed to, just like when I lived here..
That was the floor.
If you sit down when the moon rises, it is the most atmospheric floor in Yongbongdan's pavilion, where the pond in front engraves the moon on your back..
Mok Ri-won walked slowly to the reserved seat, sat there on his butt, and looked at the pond..
-Mok Sohyeop, thank you for your hard work today..
-Good job to you too. Please sit here. I thought you were hungry, so I asked for steamed potatoes..
As a conversation from one day passes through my mind, I can't help but smile..
It was that moment.
Tuk―
The sound of something falling to the floor.
Mokriwon, who was filled with sentiments, finally felt the popularity and poof! turned her head.
And I stopped breathing.
Toad-duk-duk―
It was potatoes that fell one after another and rolled on the floor..
If you follow the path the potato rolled backwards, you will see jet-black, silky black hair blowing gently in the wind..
There was a woman there, with pure white skin, contrasting bright red lips, and infinitely delicate eyes with a sharp, raised head..
“….”
It was a danghwaseo.
