The Thousand-Slayer Swords Association-Episode 287
EP.288 Part 2 Paljang - Gansu, Haehu (6)
* * *
After hearing the whole story, I couldn't help but feel depressed..
It was not a light story, and more than that, it was a story that gave Mokriwon a lot of emotional kinship..
I couldn't help but think of Mok Seon Oh..
Mok Ri-won felt a deeper intimacy with Baek Gyeong-oh because he had a teacher for whom he was so grateful and sorry..
At that moment, Seon Seon-ja opened his mouth to break the silence of Jeongja..
It was a change of topic.
“…The story has gone astray. So let's go back to the original purpose..”
“Ah, that's right. I understand.”
“You came here to figure out the invasion route of the Demonic Cult.?”
Mo Liwon nodded..
Emotions were quickly collected.
Being sentimental is something I can do after meeting Baek Kyung-oh..
“Meng is considering the possibility that the Demonic Cult is another group that has already taken root in the Central Plains, citing examples from the past world tops. Is there any group that has grown rapidly in the past 7 years? This includes clans, clans, or manors..”
“7years old….”
First of all, he rubbed his chin..
The last thing he did was shake his head..
“There is nothing in particular to point out. Gansu is a very static place compared to other regions in the central plains, so major changes rarely occur. The three largest groups have been the same for decades..”
“Hmm, that's right?”
Then, how did Daejojeol Paeungchu secretly lead those demons to Hanam?.
The feeling that I was missing something never went away..
It was that kind of moment.
“Danju!!!”
From far away, Namgung Soa came running in a huff..
After that, Eonhyuk and Kang Seohwi looked restless..
“What's going on??”
“Something big happened! Baek Kyung-Oh, he disappeared.!”
Jump up!
Mok Ri-won and Seon Seon-ja stood up at the same time..
“please tell me in more detail!”
Those were the words of the first person..
The voice was quite urgent..
Namgung So-ah took a deep breath, cleared things up, and continued speaking with a very troubled look on his face..
“Well, he said he would look around for a while and then disappeared. I knew which direction it went, so I followed it later. however….”
Namgung So-ah could not continue speaking..
It was Kang Seo-hwi who continued the explanation..
“He disappeared, leaving his sword behind in a hermitage. I searched among the members, but I couldn't find it..”
“Where was that hermitage??”
“It's a valley over there..”
“ah….”
The first person’s expression became clouded..
Even Mokriwon could roughly figure out what the hermitage was..
“This is the hermitage where Venerable Woo lived during his lifetime.?”
“Yes that's right.”
Rather than just disappearing, the fact that he left his sword behind is quite significant..
It would be right to keep in mind the possibility that it was that urgent..
“Everyone calm down. Was Gyeong-Oh that easy to defeat?.”
While speaking, Mok Riwon spread his energy waves wide..
“Just in case, I'm going to go find Gyeong-oh. Jang Moon-in, please strengthen our common security. You guys are waiting here in case Gyeong-Oh returns..”
Like that! Without listening to the answer, Mokriwon gave a warning..
‘I don't feel well.’
Seongryun cried..

This is a guy I couldn't forget even for a moment..
In any case, considering the three characters named Geum Seon-woo, his temperament, actions, and the destruction that led to his end, it was inevitable that he would be the person in Baek Gyeong-oh's life who was as meaningful as Woojon-ja..
There were things I regretted over and over again..
What would it have been like if he had endured until the end? What if he had told the truth to Honorable Wu and asked for help in advance? Or what if he had abolished his Dantian instead of Honorable Wu?.
meaningless assumption.
That was the essence of regret..
That's why Baek Kyung-oh's steps didn't stop..
As he lived a life of endless family life for which the answer had not yet been found, there was even a desire within him that perhaps he might now know the answer..
The spot designated by Geum Seon-woo was a stone house in a mountainous area a little away from the mountain..
Baek Kyung-oh finally arrived there, narrowed his eyes and looked around..
A small house barely big enough for one person to live in the middle of a forest full of bamboo..
There is no feeling of life in the pillory..
However, I feel a presence.
“You came? really.”
It was a voice that made phlegm boil..
The door to the house opened and a familiar yet unfamiliar face appeared..
“…Seonwoo Geum.”
“Baek Gyeong-oh. Baek Kyung-oh will drop half a penny. I really came.”
He was wearing silk clothes. His hair was neatly tied up, and he had a sword hanging from his waist..
Although his facial features changed as he grew up, his stern demeanor suddenly reminds me of those days..
“You survived well..”
I thought the danjeon was damaged and he was in trouble, but he seems to be fine..
Moreover, seeing that he was even wearing a sword, it seemed as if he had not let go of martial arts at all..
Did you hone your external skills?.
No, the body didn't look very sturdy..
Then what is it?.
In fact, the answer to the disturbing speculation was already in Baek Kyung-oh..
“It was you. contact.”
An unpleasant stickiness touches the skin..
It was Magi.
“So what.”
sreung―
Geum Seon-woo pulled out his sword..
“It's because of you. You bastard. I ended up like this because you broke my danjeon..”
When he laughed, his face was distorted hideously..
A dark red energy welled up over his body..
That wasn't all.
‘strong.’
It is likely that the broken Danjeon was sutured with a magic hole..
Geum Seon-woo's momentum was clearly at least beyond the peak..
“I've been thinking about it since that day.”
Geum Seon-woo took a step forward..
“Why should I suffer because of a bastard like you? An orphaned cub with no parents, an asshole cub who was lucky enough to be caught in the eyes of a nobleman, and a half-finished cub who can't even eat grass. Why should my life be ruined because of a bastard like that?.”
“….”
“I was worried. And I tried to endure it. Yes, I thought that whatever it was, it wasn't entirely my fault. But it didn't work out well.”
Geum Seon-woo had a face that didn't know whether he was crying or smiling..
“Gwangryong Baek Gyeong-oh. The strongest of these jockeys. An innate talent for perseverance. That kind of evaluation keeps ringing in my ears. How many people died because of you? How many people have become assholes and I think I'm going crazy because it's so strange that you're the only one living well?!”
thud!
Geum Seon-woo’s momentum was greatly shaken..
As his emotions changed, the energy waves surrounding him also began to take on an alien ferocity..
“So to end it. Coincidentally, the Demonic Cult proposed a deal. This military skill, and status, and... Anyway, it was a bit much. Anyway, good. I thought I could beat at least you at this rate..”
My eyes are shining.
It wasn't rational. In other words, the beast's ferocity was full of aggression and resentment..
Baek Kyung-oh sighed..
“Is that the end of what you have to say??”
I thought maybe this guy might know the answer to all those years ago..
Even though I didn't know what answer I wanted, all I could think about was wanting to relieve the frustration inside me..
But the end of a journey without a destination was just drifting..
I couldn't get anything from him.
No, on the contrary, even while I was watching the other person pouring out resentment and hatred, my emotions were showing only complete indifference..
No interest arose in him..
If I had to choose just one thing, it would only be a pathetic nightmare of an ugly, deteriorating past..
“…Yes, in the end, this is all he can do..”
He is another sinner who caused the death of Honorable One..
Still, even after twisting the leash of such a huge tree, I feel disappointed that it is in such poor shape..
It was a feeling of guilt that was rising along with it..
‘To this guy….’
He made Woojonja die..
That fact made it even more painful..
At the same time as the overflow of emotions, energy waves roughly wrapped around Baek Kyung-oh's body..
“Let's finish it quickly. I'm an idiot for having high expectations.”
Baek Kyung-oh said coldly..
Geum Seon-woo laughed..
“Okay, let's get this over with..”
It was right after.
Quaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!
Geum Seon-woo suddenly appeared in front of us and swung his sword at Baek Kyung-oh..
Baek Kyung-oh's eyes opened wide as if they were torn apart..
Heaviness and sharpness, the shape that contains them is.
“Isn't it familiar??”
“…Bokma Sword Technique?”
It is a common season, Bokma Geombeop..
I was using it as a magician..
Suddenly, Geum Seon-woo put down his sword..
And I raised my fist.
Although it is not a very threatening herbivore, Baek Gyeong-oh had to feel goosebumps all over his body..
It was because I knew that herbivorous diet..
“Chilsangkwon! How does it feel to be right?!”
“you…!”
“I learned it from that proud gentleman. I hadn't forgotten.”
Geum Seon-woo's fist touched Baek Kyeong-oh's stomach..
Throwing a bet!
My intestines were crushed.
Geum Seon-woo said while intoxicated with demonic energy..
“You idiot, you can't even use anything like this, so why were you stuck under there??”
Baek Kyung-oh raised his head and looked at him while breathing heavily..
What started to form in his eyes was anger..
-The Chilsan Fist is a fist created to punish those who are vicious! So, Gyeong-oh! Just remember that feeling! Herbivore can be clumsy! no! You don’t have to know! If you just proudly raise your fist in front of a wicked person, that is Chilsangkwon.!
The moment the voice in my memory rings in my ears.
“Do you know what that is?.”
Tu Cheon-seong screamed..
