I did it.
There was Hongseon in his arms, looking up at him with a surprised face..
As soon as the thought of a dangerous situation began to rise, my body began to move..
What should I do with this?.
No, should I say that it is fortunate that the situation is not good?.
“Stay here. I have to help people evacuate.”
I left the place immediately..
There are quite a few demonic forces that can be felt..
However, it wasn't enough for Mokriwon alone to stop it, so he didn't go out of his way to help..
We moved diligently with the thought that we could do our best in each role, and that was after evacuating some of the villagers..
“Hey, are you really the head of the family?…!”
Wow, it looks like it caught my eye..
The problem was that there was a branch of the Maeng nearby..
Among the warriors of the Murim League, there were a few who actually saw him..
“While I was out for a while with my younger brother, an accident occurred. It will be resolved soon, so get the people back..”
“If it's aura….”
“I'm talking about Mukryong..”
“ah!”
Hope begins to spread over the faces of the warriors..
Zhuge Shan laughed slightly. It was because of the thought that his name, both then and now, acts as a name of hope..
“Please move quickly.”
After saying that, Zhuge Shan turned around..
The intention was to disappear through the crowd and disappear in the confusion.….
“for a moment!”
widely!
And I got caught..
To Hongseon.

Mo Liwon looked in the direction where he could feel the demon energy and thought..
It was a familiar demon. Moreover, this sudden attack also gave me a sense of déjà vu for some reason..
I think the owner of this demon is definitely someone I don't know..
Eventually it fit..
“Did you come? Mukryong.”
There was a grinning, wild-haired man..
The man had a stocky physique, a chin with sparse beard, and cute eyes, but much else had changed..
“…Paeungchu.”
Wonma Paewongchu.
But I don’t think I can call him a horseman anymore..
In addition to his neat black long gun, he was holding two swords in both hands that had knife marks on them..
“7It's been a year.”
“I missed you. To the point where I feel anxious that I will never be able to appear in the powerhouse like this..”
“When did we become so close?.”
“There is nothing more heartwarming than a relationship risking each other's lives..”
Pae Woong Chu got up from his seat..
Mokriwon asked.
“Why did you eat two swords each??”
“Then you?”
“I use it alternately.”
“It's different with me. My martial arts is one that uses both swords..”
Paeungchu, who whirled around like a windmill, soon took his stance..
“What do you think? Do you feel any difference from before??”
“I've never seen a strong person among those who wield two swords..”
As he spoke, he felt a little sorry for Eonhyuk, but Mokriwon's thoughts did not change..
that is excessive.
However, Paeungchu didn’t seem to mind..
“Whether it's long or short is something you have to look at to find out..”
Hwaak!
Demonic energy fluttered over his body..
A vicious energy spread out into the space..
“So, let's get started. Is there nothing we can share other than the will to kill?.”
Should I say it’s consistent?.
I know he has a lot to say, but he doesn't seem to have any intention of answering like this..
“I'll finish it soon. Now the gap between us has widened so much.”
sreung―
Mu Riwon pulled out a black nightshade and pointed it at Paeungchu..
Whoosh, after the sound of the wind briefly passes by,
Oh my gosh!!!
A shock swept through the space..
*
Zhuge Shan looked at the white hand of the woman holding his hand..
It was my mother's hand, callused and scarred in various places..
Hands that feel incredibly vital for someone who has even been the hostess of a huge manor..
It was difficult to shake off the fact that I resembled someone so much..
“…It's been a while.”
I smile and talk to you countless times..
A cloudy look appears on Hong Seon's face..
“You were there, right? continue.”
“what?”
“I'm not stupid enough to not know that you were taking care of me. Me and my younger brother.”
I don't think she made it obvious, but maybe this woman has a good sense of humor?.
“Why didn’t you come visit me??”
“Why do I have to visit you??”
“yes?”
Hongseon's face turns into embarrassment..
Zhuge Shan spoke a little harshly..
“I told you. I just helped you out on a whim..”
That whim lasted a bit longer..
Anyway, what reason is there to get closer?.
It was a passing relationship, and for that reason, it was a very beautiful relationship for me..
I didn't want it to fall apart..
“I asked her to be a good mother. She was curious to see if she was keeping her word..”
Zhuge Mountain's eyes turned to the child, Hongyun..
Only then do I smile.
“The child is so pretty.”
It is a well-washed, well-clothed and well-fed face..
Feeling curiosity rather than fear upon seeing an unfamiliar adult meant that the child's growth was achieved through love, not violence..
That's enough..
It's enough.
“You're lying..”
Hongseon speaks sternly..
It makes me flinch..
Her tone was exactly that of scolding a child, making Zhuge Mountain smaller..
The corners of the eyes are bulging..
The mouth is tightly closed and the eyes are wide open..
There is such a thing as habit and inertia..
When it was time to get serious, Zhuge Shan tended to avoid it..
It was like that this time too.
“You're lying, I don't know what you're talking about.”
“Usually, they don't look back for 7 years to make sure they keep their promises. and….”
Hongyeon holds your hand tighter..
“Eungong was a person who looked people in the eye and spoke to them. He told the truth and he did it.”
What kind of ridiculous logic is this?.
I tried to laugh, but she showed no sign of backing down..
How can you trust someone you only met once?.
Are you trying to cling to me so tightly just because of that one relationship?.
What is it about a relationship that makes it so painful to the inside?.
I was very happy and troubled by Hong Seon’s favor..
The regret that I thought I had already let go of comes pressing down on my body again..
Suddenly, Mok Riwon’s words come to mind..
-What will you do now??
I couldn't answer the question of how I would live..
Zhuge Shan was just thinking about living a wandering life..
It should be.
That's what I thought, but now that I think about it, it's true..
‘I don't feel like it.’
Actually, I want to live mixed with people..
I wanted to walk through the world by forming relationships with them, meeting them again, and breaking up again and again, weaving the thread of that relationship..
There was such a wind.
that is,
“Please say again. Why didn't you come to see me??”
A sudden surge of energy comes from a stern voice..
Zhuge Shan pursed his lips..
Then I closed it.
Smile all winter long.
“I am….”
That moment,
Quaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!
-Wow!!
There was heavy drinking and shaking at the entrance of the village..
While the people in preparation were startled and cowered, Zhuge Shan felt Hongseon's hands shaking..
“I have to go..”
“silver ball!”
“Now you know who I am. Don't worry.”
Am I lucky that I was able to run away?.
no, no.
“I'll give you the answer after I come back..”
You can't just run away forever..
Zhuge Shan turned around and said.
“I'll be back soon.”
Grinning, he grinned like a weasel..
*
“Hahaha!”
Pae Woong Chu laughed out loud and swung his sword..
Mu Liwon leisurely avoided him and steadily carved scars on Pai Ungqiu's body..
The strange martial art of using two swords was clearly full of rogue tricks that made up for the shortcoming of limited sword use..
The state of Paeungchu is at the peak of perfection..
It is a self-evident fact that if you hastily plunge your sword in to finish it in one day, you may end up with a wound..
He was using a cutting sword technique to exclude even the slightest gap..
Cuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuure!
There was a tremor in the village..
Mok Riwon’s eyes widened significantly..
When I looked at Pae Ung Chu, he widened his distance and clicked his tongue as if he didn't like it..
“That's my goal. You're the only one. Isn't it because the church doesn't allow it? What should I do? They said they would let me out only if I made a bucket, so I had no choice but to say yes, I understand..”
“…I guess I was short-thinking.”
Saaaa―!
The atmosphere of Mokriwon began to be sharply abandoned..
The ink-colored star engraved on the sword eventually hardened and formed a strong sword..
I decided that even if I had to endure a little injury, I had to definitely end the situation and join the village..
Paewongchu smiled at him for a long time..
“Acting boringly. How could I just let you go when I met you again?.”
Ugh!
Pae Woong Chu struck the two swords against each other..
sparks fly.
Dark red demonic energy burns above it..
“see. see!”
The sight of someone bursting into laughter as if they are delighted is that of a madman..
Even though he was completely outnumbered, it seemed like he couldn't lessen his cheerfulness..
Is there any need to deal with a madman?.
Mo Ri-won took a nose-to-tail stance and was launched straight at Pae Ung-chu..
It was the moment when I swung my sword like that..
“This is it!!!”
Whoa whoa!!!
Two swords slashed at Mo Liwon’s sword..
What solidifies as if burning above it,
‘…strength?’
It was strong.
Imperfect, but still strong.
“ruler! Show me more!”
Paeungchu roared..
