The Thousand-Slayer Swords Association-Episode 319
EP.320 Part 2 Chapter 15 - Brothers (1)

It happened unknowingly.
Kugugoogung Palace―!
the ground shook.
The air currents changed and the sky became dark..
At that series of changes, all the troops charging towards the Demonic Bridge stopped..
It was like animals in a forest facing a huge disaster, sensing danger and acting strangely..
“This….”
Somewhere in the main unit where everything was finally sorted out, Miles' eyes widened..
Namgung-hyuk sighed and Gyeon-gwal grabbed his sword again..
It was the same in other places too.
The first Yongbongdando that defeated the Six Demons, and the three transcendental swords that had just overcome the elders..
“Hehehe….”
The goat-ox shifted his gaze at the sound of laughter he heard..
There, the three elders were covered in blood with their limbs ripped out, smiling maniacally..
The goat-ox's expression became frowning..
“…What are you aiming for??”
A voice that has become sharper.
However, there was no way I could get an answer..
3The elder is ending his life peacefully as if he had completed all his duties..
Then a thought occurred to me,
‘trap?’
This entire journey to the Church of the Heavenly Demon, and all the reports of victory so far, may have actually been a trap..
It definitely is..
‘It was so easy!’
It is the headquarters of the Demonic Cult..
Even if the power of the Amman Demonic Cult was diminished and the power of the Maeng was high, such a one-sided structure makes no sense..
The moment the goat realized that fact, it started screaming..
And then, he stopped dead in his tracks and fell down..
thud!
‘uh?’
And there was no need to panic.
The spirit of the goat-ox was dragged down into a distant abyss..

Ugh―
A soft golden light flowed from the treasure that Dan Ji-seon was holding..
It was protecting Mok Ri-won, Dan Ji-seon, and his escort from the unexpected incident..
“What the hell is this….”
A devastated voice came out from Mo Riwon’s mouth..
Because I couldn't figure out the reason for this incident..
Isn’t that right? Enter the main complex and go to Cheonmajeon..
There was nothing in Mokriwon’s path..
No matter how I looked, I could only feel the victory of the Maeng side wherever I went..
It suddenly turned upside down.
No, can I say it turned over??
“…The forces of the Demonic Cult also fell..”
Something is blocking my mood.
It felt like the fog blocking my vision was controlling the level of information..
I was raising my guard against him.,
thud!
“Teacher!”
Complex line fell.
Mok Riwon took a deep breath..
“Hey, look at this.!”
Dan Dan-seon's skin was turning pale..
*
The complex line was in the fog..
I knew right away that it was caused by some kind of magical hallucination..
It has to be that way.
‘small hands.’
My body returned to what it was when I was young..
‘It doesn't hurt.’
My body, which was an obstacle every moment of my life, is stronger than ever..
Definitely one more thing.
“Jiseonah.”
mother is in front of me.
In a garden at Baekryeon Bridge, holding my bloated belly with my hand,.
Dan Ji-seon looked at his mother with clouded eyes, even though he knew this was a hallucination..
And I answered.
“…yes.”
I think without thinking.
What was it like outside?.
Did that strange technique pierce the treasure and apply only to himself? If not, are Mokriwon and Howie also falling into the same illusion?.
Even though my emotions fluctuate as I look at my mother's face, the worry remains in a corner of my heart..
mother stretched out her hand.
“Come here. why are you doing this.”
Approaching the question.
Dan Ji-seon held her mother’s hand..
The sensation of warm, calloused hands was so vivid that I almost forgot reality for a moment, but I grabbed it again and kept it inside..
Dan Ji-seon thought.
‘first….’
I have to follow along..
After all, there is no way to welcome a welcome other than to meet them directly..
*
Now it's a story from a blurry memory.
The quiet atmosphere of Baekryeon Bridge somewhere in the mountains of Seojang, the bright smiles of people passing by, and my mother’s lively laughter..
“So your father….”
As I remember, my mother made me tell a story about my father..
It was a memory that Dan Ji-seon did not like..
The previous head of the Baekryun Church was a man with many shortcomings as the head of the family..
“Is that so.”
Dan Ji-seon said that and let go of his mother’s words..
My mother had no wrinkles..
I got used to this kind of reaction and it was just like I remembered..
“Ah, who does our Ji-sun resemble to be so blunt?.”
I didn't want to be like anyone.
If I take after my father, who is full of flaws, I will become a poor leader, and I am just too quiet a person to take after my energetic mother..
It's enough to be a younger sibling to resemble the two of you..
I don't know if it's a boy or a girl, but it sure looks cute..
I have to protect it for the rest of my life..
I remember saying that..
Because I want to look a little more mature while still being young.
The anticipation of having a younger sibling was so high that.
Just think about it now.
‘I couldn't protect anything.’
I was too young.
I was too young to save my parents and keep my younger brother in my arms..
This miserable body was too small to moderate the White Lotus Bridge and take down Dan Tianhua..
My perm nature didn't help at that moment..
The moment he realized it, Dan Ji-seon was able to know at what point in the past this dream was..
‘ah.’
“Wife, Jiseonah.”
This happened when Dan Cheon-hwa returned to Baekryeon Bridge..
“My friend!”
When my mother found my father, she smiled brightly and walked quickly towards him..
two people hugged each other.
I made eye contact with my father..
Smile quietly and gesture.
As Dan Ji-seon approached, she looked back at her father's face, which had become more blurred than that of her mother..
Looking at it this way, he might look a little more like his father..
I was just thinking about that..
“Did the meeting end well??”
Father answers mother's question.
“…Same as always.”
There was a shadow in my father's voice that couldn't be hidden..
Dan Ji-seon knew it..
What is the content of that meeting?.
‘Hyeolcheongyo.’
My uncle, who left the White Lotus Church and committed himself to the Demonic Cult long before he was born..
He went to the central plains under the name of Hyeolcheongyo and was causing trouble..
It was a meeting about the attitude that White Lotus Church should take..
A fight between those who say they must step in and stop Dancheonhwa and those who say there is no reason to care about those who have already been excommunicated..
My father was an electrician..
My mother was the latter..
The elders also took different positions, just like the split opinions of the couple..
That's why the meeting lasts so long.
To the point where I can't decide anything.
“I'm very worried. I know best how vicious he can be..”
“…I am worried that you will be harmed..”
My mother hugged my father even stronger..
Dan Ji-seon saw the scene..
I think at that moment.
‘It was today.’
bang!!!
“Ahhhhh!!!”
The heavy drinking and screaming came without warning..
Like a lightning strike in a dry sky, like a sudden tsunami.
“What is this?!”
“Teacher! It's an enemy attack!”
A blood-covered church member hurries to report the truth..
My father’s face turned pale..
My father, whose face soon became as sharp as possible, said.
“Madam, please take Ji-seon and escape..”
“me too…!”
“I have a child in my stomach..”
Mother's mouth was tightly shut..
The situation in which the mother, the highest prisoner of Baekryeongyo, was out of power..
Even when I think about it again, Dan Chun-hwa’s schedule is creepy..
“Jiseonah!”
Dan Ji-seon was led by his mother's hand and ran to the other side of the drinking binge..
Still, I kept my eyes on his back..
I see my father's back.
That was the last thing Dan Ji-seon remembered of him..
Kwaaaaang―!
At the same time as I was drinking heavily, a man was approaching with a grin, looking at my father with his back turned..
Shiny eyes with wild hair and blood flowing out.
Blood Demon Dancheonhwa.
he was there.
search
The end of memory is approaching.
“Dancheon…!”
“noisy.”
Quang!
My father was not good enough as a military man..
Exactly,
“My friend!”
I was worse than my mother and Dancheonhwa..
“Oh my…!”
Mother might have known.
That my father could never defeat Dan Tianhua..
The moment he chose to stay, he made the choice to give up his life to give himself and his mother the slightest reprieve..
But I couldn't even create that reprieve..
Because Dancheonhwa was terrifyingly strong..
Because the magic he used was so ugly.
“Jiseonah….”
The mother smiled bitterly and hugged Dan Ji-seon..
“…Stay hidden. Because everything will end well. huh?”
I followed those words that day..
I'm so scared, so confused.
Dan Ji-seon pursed his lips..
I wanted to say something else this time, but again it was impossible..
Because my mother’s face was so miserably distorted..
Ah, even if I go on for a lifetime, I can't beat this face..
With a new realization, Dan Ji-seon took a step back..
The moment I turn around like that,
Peeing―!
the world turned upside down.
*
“Jiseonah.”
It's the first time again.
A garden at Baekryeon Bridge, a mother holding her pregnant belly with her hands, and her young self..
‘That's right.’
Now I'm sure.
This is a hex that repeats the most terrible memories..
At that moment, I realized one more thing..
‘Outside?’
Someone was waiting.
I didn't remember.
