The Thousand-Slayer Swordsman Association-Episode 49
〈 49Tue 〉 Ojang Yongbong Branch (22）
* * *
It was gorgeous.
The huge non-stage decorated for today's festival was decorated with all kinds of rare decorations and flags of powerful families..
The person standing in the middle of it all is none other than Namgunghyuk, the King of Swords..
He continued his speech with a stern face..
A formal expression such as being satisfied with the successful completion of this Yongbong branch or saying that Kangho has a bright future..
Although they knew it was out of necessity, the audience present could not deny that they were bored by it..
Why not?.
Isn’t the reason they gathered today not because of the Sword King’s speech?.
The people who will be today's protagonists haven't even come out yet..
The audience's gaze was pointed in one direction the entire time..
The door in the middle of the demilitarized zone is still firmly closed..
This was the door where the winners came out..
[…I will now start attending this event..］
At that moment, Namgoong Hyuk said that.
What followed was an indescribably loud roar that filled the battlefield..
Namgoonghyuk raised his hand with an indifferent expression..
ridge. ridge. ridge.
The drum sounded.
The door that had been closed until the day before was opened, and a man and a woman came out behind it..
It was Danghwaseo and Hyeongong who advanced to the semifinals..
The two people who walked at a certain distance approached Namgoong Hyuk and took the gun..
Namgoonghyuk then encouraged the winners in a polite manner..
There was no product payment.
What they will receive is the price of blindness.
This is because after leaving this place, I personally choose and receive what I want..
The audience was busy whispering as they watched the man and woman receiving the cards..
“Dokbong has made a splendid comeback. Now no one will call Dokbong's name low..”
“Seonryong was also amazing. He only made it to the semifinals as his opponent was his opponent, but if he hadn't appeared this time, wouldn't it have been Sunryong who would have made it to the finals?.”
‘People around me nodded at the word ‘that’..
Mukgeom Mokriwon.
The man who became the biggest upset of this Yongbong branch and the upset of Jungwon Moorim..
As his story continued, the audience's attention naturally turned to the next winner..
[Next, runner-up Geomryong Namgung Jincheon.］
Namgoonghyuk recited his solemn history..
Even though he was calling my grandson's name, his demeanor was businesslike..
“Wow!!!”
There was a man who climbed onto the podium with the audience cheering..
It was Namgung Jincheon, a handsome man with deep blue eyes and sharp lines..
“You don't look good. Was the loss that shocking??”
“Stop talking. Do you know what the most frequently used word is in Anhui right now? What I'm saying is that the sword dragon may be addicted to the demonic spirit. Some even said he might never be able to hold a sword again..”
“Hey, isn’t that too much of a leap?.”
“Don't you know what people do?.”
The whispering continues..
Runner-up.
It was definitely a performance worthy of praise, but the problem was that it was a sword dragon..
As the person who was always in the position of the overwhelming loser falls down, the martial people who like to talk about others enjoy base pleasure by chewing and tearing at him..
However, they weren't completely wrong..
Namgung Jincheon was truly in a state of despair and had not been able to sleep properly for several days..
first defeat in life.
And the questions that came with it.
It was clearly eroding Namgung Jincheon's high confidence..
Namgoong Hyuk looked at his grandson..
The face with a gloomy expression he had never seen before and the lifeless gait offended him..
“…stand up straight.”
Namgoonghyuk said that in a low voice..
Namgung Jincheon narrowed his eyebrows and then followed Namgung Hyuk’s words..
“sorry.”
“Don't show weakness. Kangho is heartless and has no sympathy for someone who shows such weakness..”
That was the end of the conversation.
Namgoonghyuk did not add any further admonitions and simply focused on leading the event..
[The product is perennial steel, sword dragons, use this to make the sword you want..］
A Sega driver who was waiting behind Namgoonghyuk came out carrying a box the size of the upper body of an adult man..
When Namgung Jincheon took the gun, the warrior stood up behind him..
And he left unarmed with Namgung Jincheon..
[to the next….］
The moment the words got out there, there was silence in the unarmed area..
I was nervous about the main character of today's event that was finally coming out..
However, the tension was not created just because the main character appeared..
This moment is the moment when a new dragon(?) is born.
Tension arose as to what the nickname of Dragon that would be given to him would be..
[…Let's start awarding the winners..］
Namgoonghyuk received a beautifully sealed letter from Sega’s military officer..
In it was written the special name that will be given to Mokriwon today..
Do you even designate a star in advance?.
Are you going to wrap it up in a letter and make a declaration?.
No one had such doubts.
This was natural.
The dragon's nickname is special.
Since it is a certificate recognized by the entire Jungwon Martial Arts, it is carefully decided to the extent that masters of the prestigious Martial Arts clans discuss several times before awarding it..
Would you be able to realize the weight of the king as another example of a nickname that goes through such complicated procedures?.
The audience's attention is focused on the temple..
I am fascinated by the movement of Namgoong Hyuk opening the script..
Above the silent, unarmed.
Namgoong Hyuk’s lips were sweet..
[A new dragon was born.］
There is an absolute person who once ruled as the king of this river..
[There is a rookie who has shown overwhelming skills. There is a warrior who proved himself with that sword..］
I am listing the feats displayed by one man during this year's Yongbong branch..
[Sometimes he is a thug, sometimes he is gentle, and sometimes he is a man who wields an exciting sword. However, amidst all this, there is one trait that he has always had..］
Define Mokriwon.
[It is a dragon that paints the place where it steps with a muted color and makes it shine darkly, thereby making its presence known. Baekdo Martial Arts will refer to him as this from now on..］
defines the characteristics that characterize it.
[Mukryong (？？). Climb up on the platform..］
Mukryong (？？) Mokriwon.
The man who will be called that from now on came out the door..
The silence from the day before yesterday collapsed..
“Wow!!!”
A noise that tore the entire space apart erupted..
Heat burst out that almost cooked my skin..
A man with a dazzling smile got into the middle of the madness..
On the podium, Namgoonghyuk spoke as he looked at Mokriwon, who had finally arrived in front of him..
[congratulations on winning.］
After saying that, he handed me the card..
What came next was Kwon Ryong Il-un, a Shaolin character..
[The prize is a summons. Mukryong accepts this and strives for justice in martial arts..］
That's it.
Namgoonghyuk waved his hand and bit Mokriwon..
Mokriwon leaves unarmed.
However, the heat of being unarmed does not go away..
Although the awards ceremony was short and intense, the excitement continued until the end of the event..
No, it didn't turn off even after the meeting ended and the whole day passed..
Today, a new dragon was born in Gangho..
*
Mo Riwon stood in the middle of the secret room with a smiling face..
And while doing so, I shouted my nickname in my mind..
‘Mukryong!’
It was a shame that it wasn't a cooperative dragon, but this is somewhere.
Anyway, isn’t it none other than a nickname for Yong(?).
This means that the special name given only to late Jisoo, who represents the political faction Moorim, has been bestowed on me as well..
From now on, wherever you go, you will be called a dragon..
If someone asks about your identity, you will have to say, ‘The Kangho compatriots are calling me Mukryong!’.
‘My fellow believers are calling me Mukryong.…!’
Mok Ri-won, who imagined that scene, clenched his fists and trembled..
It was so thrilling.
Kwon Ryong Ilwoon looked at Mokriwon with a shy expression..
‘You look so happy.….’
It wasn't a feeling I couldn't understand..
On the day he received the nickname Kwon Ryong, he couldn't sleep and was grinning..
Of course, I wasn't that overtly happy, but I sympathize with his feelings..
“Lord Mok, congratulations on your win..”
“ah! Thank you! I was so drunk with my joy that I looked ugly for a moment.!”
Mok Riwon’s cheeks turned bright red..
Ilwoon smiled softly and pushed the chest towards Mokriwon..
“So, would you like to start now??”
A chest the size of a human fist.
The moment it was opened, Mokriwon let out an exclamation..
“oh…!”
A spicy scent fills the secret room..
At the same time, refreshing air seeped into my lungs..
summons.
This phenomenon occurred when one of Shaolin's representative elixirs was revealed into the air..
Mo Ri-won swallowed his saliva and stretched out his hand to the summoning altar neatly wrapped in wrapping paper..
“All you have to do is take it like this.?”
“Yes, my priests and I will stand guard while you absorb the energy of the elixir..”
“I understand! Then, will you excuse me?!”
“As much as you want.”
Without further delay, Mok Ri-won assumed the lotus position..
In that state, I carefully unwrapped the summoning ring and swallowed it in my mouth..
‘Hoo…!’
The moment you put it in your mouth, the scent explodes with a ‘woeak’ sound..
The moment it comes in contact with the needle, the elixir gently melts away..
The moment the elixir that passed into the stomach clearly awakened the senses, Mok Ri-won quickly recited the verse..
Saaaa.
Silent energy waves flow out..
Mokriwon could not help but be impressed by the purity felt as the summons was absorbed..
Should we really call it the elixir of Shaolin?.
‘How can it be so clear?.’
It was pure and completely different from the Inmyeonjiju Naedan I had tried before..
I didn't feel a single stale energy or unnecessary waste..
If it was a power that was not originally his, there would be friction while absorbing it, but the summoning group was giving up their nature and becoming a part of him, as if they were willing to blend in with any power..
Danjeon is gradually increasing in size..
At the same time, the movement of internal energy running through the blood vessels became stronger..
Mok Ri-won's inner strength, which was extremely explosive due to his constitution of extreme retardation, was greatly pleased with his own strength that had become stronger and began to run wild..
‘Calm down. Yon Seok-ah.’
Mok Ri-won held the reins tightly to his inner strength..
In doing so, I opened up a world of imagery..
There was a constellation of swords there, whose brilliance was still dull compared to the others..
Mo Ri-won pushed the inner energy that was running rampant under his control into the constellation..
Wow!!
At that moment, the energy waves emanating from Mokriwon became more profound..
The fourth constellation he finally completed expanded his imagination..
But that wasn't the end.
Seongryun Shingong is a martial art of harmony.
There was a need to properly connect the sword constellation, which had just been established, with other constellations..
Just like when completing the previous three constellations, Mokriwon made his way between the third and fourth constellations..
In doing so, one rule was added to the traversing constellations..
Cheon(?), Ji(?), Person(人)）.
and sword(？）.
The third and fourth constellations thus defined the point of contact..
“Sooooo….”
Mo Liwon let out a breath and opened his eyes..
There was a much clearer light in his eyes than before..
Now it's the perfect climax.
As soon as I took the elixir, Il-woon had to calm down his surprise at Mok-ri-won's prayers that changed..
‘…Somehow, in the first place, it wasn't enlightenment, it was lack of inner strength..’
I was told that the level of swordsmanship was low compared to the swordsmanship shown, and this seems to be the reason..
It was a rare case.
Unlike the famous clans who can take the elixir appropriate to their level of enlightenment if they wish, the warriors of other minor clans often face difficulties because they do not have the inner strength to attain enlightenment..
Suddenly, a bitter smile appeared on Ilwoon's lips..
‘I need to celebrate….’
It wasn't as easy as it seemed.
I am also completely unmanned.
There is a clear sense of deprivation and jealousy that arises the moment a peer of a similar level grows ahead of you and surpasses you..
Ilwoon had a feeling unbecoming of a disciple of Buddhism, so he tried to suppress it and opened his mouth..
“Congratulations. You have achieved success..”
“Thank you for protecting the law! I keep being indebted to my monk.!”
Hearing what Mok Ri-won said with a smile, Il-un composed himself once again..
“…no. and thank you.”
“hmm?”
“There is such a thing.”
I will never fall behind.
If you lack talent, you will put in enough effort to make up for it..
So I will stand shoulder to shoulder with these brilliant talents..
Kwon Ryong Ilwoon.
He was a man who remembered challenge rather than giving up in front of a high wall..
