The Thousand-Slayer Swords Association-Episode 299
EP.300 Second Captain - Leader (1)
* * *
Gyeondong had to seriously consider whether this situation was a dream or reality..
“Mu, are you saying that Mukryong Daehyup has business for me??”
“exactly! There's something I'd like to ask.”
Gyeondong pinched his cheek..
Even though the pain was vivid, it didn't feel real at all, so I pulled my goatee..
“ouch!”
Only then will it be clearly recognized.
‘The Mukryong Daehyup came to visit me.!’
My heart was racing..
It was the second time in Gyeondong’s life that his heart raced this much..
Of course, the first day was the day I met him, was recognized, and received applause..
“Well, eat it inside first! I'll even bring some tea..”
“thank you for your favor.”
Mo Liwon smiled and entered Jinwondan’s hall..
As he entered the reception room, Gyeondong felt extremely trembled at the sight of him next to him..
‘Wow, he’s still incredibly handsome.!’
Armed with strength and beauty, he also gained wealth through the Tang family. There is no man in this powerhouse who is superior to Mo Ri-won..
Actually, if you think about it like that, your sense of defeat as a male will soar.!
‘Because it’s the Mukryong Grand Hyeop!’
Gyeondong gave up on feeling defeated because the difference was so far away.!
‘But why did you come to see me?.’
I couldn't help but smile brightly..
It was because I thought that Kwak Chil and Wang Sam had something to brag about..
‘Maybe you need a friend to chat with? okay! All of my close friends have passed away in their respective hometowns, so it is worth it! No, if not that, then a discourse on martial arts? If not, it's in return for the past gift.?!’
My imagination has reached the point of delusion..
Gyeondong took out the best tea leaves he had, boiled them, and gave them to Mokriwon..
The expression on his face was a big smile the whole time..
“Now, can I hear your business now??”
“Ah, thank you. That's no different….”
“Yes, just say the word..”
Mok Ri-won smiled sheepishly..
What I eventually said was that.
“I had a chance to meet with the leader alone, and I was wondering if I could ask him about him..”
Jeokjeok, my shoulder stiffened..
What was flowing were tears.
‘It's not like you have anything to do with me..’
It was a despondent moment..
“That would be rude.…?”
Mo Liwon drooped his eyebrows as if he was embarrassed..
At that moment, Gyeondong shook his head without realizing it..
“Oh no!”
In fact, there was no reason why I couldn't say it, except that I felt sorry..
7Years ago, I was living a life of undermining myself by working my way up the ranks to please my grandfather, but now I don't think that's particularly important..
Gyeondong was the type of person who, if we were to weigh his grandfather's recognition and the relationships he gained through marriage, would choose the latter..
If Gyeondong has one worry right now, it's that he may not be able to be of much help to Mokriwon..
Aside from the fact that he and my grandfather were blood relatives, we lived with each other like strangers, so Gyeondong didn't know much..
“Well, first of all, please understand that what I know is only a small part..”
“I understand.”
Mok Riwon’s eyes sparkled..
It was so dazzling that Gyeondong avoided his gaze for a moment..
The words didn't come out until later..
“As you know, my grandfather… The Lord's nickname, Haepa Sword, is a nickname derived from the martial arts he uses. It is famous for its sword that reproduces the rolling of waves..”
First of all, I decided that I needed to say what kind of person I was as a military officer..
“The story of Lord Maeng developing the sea wave sword, which was only an ordinary martial art, by teaching himself and turning it into an ascending martial art is quite famous in his hometown. Not only that. It's only now been revealed, but didn't you reach transcendence with the Sea Wave Sword? Maengju is proud to say that his understanding of martial arts is among the top ten in the central region..”
“Huh, I didn't know that backstory. It's so dark because of Kangho's rumors..”
“It is natural that this story became famous only after he was inaugurated as leader. Mukryong Daehyup stayed at the closed restaurant..”
Gyeondong licked his lips once and then continued speaking..
“Anyway, as befits someone who has accumulated such military knowledge, he has a strict personality. For subordinates who are thorough even in small tasks and whose performance falls short of expectations,….”
At that moment, Gyeondong felt a bitterness in his mouth..
I erased it quickly.
“…He is merciless. Maengju is that kind of person..”
Suddenly something about my parents came to mind..
I also remembered a time when I blamed my parents because I thought they were the reason I didn't receive my grandfather's approval..
Did I say something pointless?.
It was a moment to think.
“…Jin Wondanju, your complexion is not good. It reminded me of something I didn't like.?”
Mokriwon’s consideration stuck in Gyeondong’s heart..
There was a rush of emotion..
Gyeondong quickly regained his composure and pounded his chest..
“it's okay. Isn’t that Gyeon-dong ready to listen to anything the Daehyeop asks??!”
Only then does Mokriwon's complexion improve as he smiles..
In the midst of laughter, Gyeondong added one word..
“Anyway, to put it the other way, he is a person who cares about capable people. If you are the Mukryong Grand Association, you will definitely be able to build a good relationship with the leader..”
“Thank you for saying that..”
“you're welcome. Are you going right away??”
“First of all, I'm going to rest today. Well, since we just met like this, would you like to have a drink together??”
Gyeondong’s eyes widened..
“What are you doing?…!”
“Oh, you're busy….”
“no! certainly! You have to do it absolutely! Please wait! I'll get ready and come out soon.!”
Kwadangtang!
Gyeondong busily prepared to go out..
A drinking party at Mokriwon that I only dreamed of.
Danghwaseo was there with him, and Gyeondong, drunk that day, drank too much and ended up hanging on Mokriwon's pants leg..
“Great fishing!!! Just add one more drink and go.!!!”
“Uh-huh, Jinwondanju. It's too late at night.”
“No! I have to spend the night with Daehyeop tonight.….”
“Mok Sohyeop, leave this to me..”
Gyeondong’s memory was cut off along with Danghwaseo’s voice..
Gyeondong couldn’t remember what happened that day..
One thing that is clear is that Gyeondong suffered from diarrhea all day the next day..

The day after I finished drinking with Gyeondong,.
Mok Ri-won woke up early in the morning, finished early morning training, and went to the village..
‘He is the one who sees people's abilities..’
Combining what I heard from Mile Seok and the information gathered through various other means ultimately leads to this answer..
Mokriwon was a little anxious..
In fact, the Yongbongdan itself was a group that always caused accidents, except for big explosions during missions..
1The first and second seasons were no different..
Secretly, a feeling arose in my mind that what might happen if the leader looked at Yongbongdan unfairly?.
‘…No, let's not think bad thoughts already..’
In any case, you will find out when you meet them..
Mo Ri-won took a long breath and entered the cabinet..
“hmm? Mukryong?”
The person I met was Cabinet Leader Kwon Pyo-wol..
He was holding a bunch of documents in his arms, and Mok Ri-won, who was filled with wonder, asked:.
“Where are you going with the documents yourself??”
“Ah, these are documents to give to the leader. Then you?”
“I also came to see my lord.….”
Even as he spoke, Mok Riwon felt fed up..
Do you mean to handle all that much paperwork??
I knew that the leader was busy, but I didn't know it was to this extent, so I was shocked..
Meanwhile, Kwon Pyo-wol burst into laughter and said,.
“This leader is particularly unusual. He cannot relax unless he confirms everything himself..”
“ah….”
“Anyway, it worked out. Let me guide you since the destination is the same. But what business is it??”
“The leader of the squadron asked me to deliver a letter..”
Kwon Pyo-wol’s eyes widened..
“I met the leader of the squadron??!”
“Oh, I didn't tell you.”
Come to think of it, I was in hiding from the outside world..
Did I make an unnecessary mistake?.
Mok Ri-won smiled awkwardly and said,.
“Please keep it a secret for now..”
“…I understand. The leader of the squadron must also have circumstances..”
So, Mok Ri-won followed Kwon Pyo-wol and headed to Maengjujeon..
This is my second visit.
The first was 7 years ago when Sabaekun was the leader..
After passing the guard guarding the entrance, Mokriwon entered and looked around..
“I don't think anything much has changed. It's still a very quiet place..”
“The leader is not very interested in decorating things. Besides, wasn’t the place originally well decorated? Prayers are abundant.”
“That's true too.”
Maengjujeon was a place where the power of the space itself was magnificent due to the formations installed in the space and the various plants within it..
Mokriwon's senses felt refreshed as it felt both refreshing and heavy..
It was like that.
“Come here.”
Suddenly I heard a voice.
The moment Mo Ri-won raised his head, he saw an old man appear through the open door in the distance and immediately took his gun..
“Mae, I meet you, Lord.!”
The Murim Lord's Haepa Sword Gyeongwol, he was right in front of me..
Strong bones and long beard stand out..
His calm, even cold eyes were directed towards Mokriwon..
The moment I felt like I was making a mistake for not noticing it right away because I was preoccupied with my surroundings, Gyeonggwol spoke..
“Cabinet Secretary, please leave your documents behind. Looks like a guest has arrived.”
“yep.”
Mok Ri-won glanced at Kwon Pyo-wol leaving..
All he could say was ‘Cheer up!’.
