The Thousand-Slayer Swordsman Association-Episode 87
〈 87Tue 〉 Twelve bets, competition (2）
* * *
Gyeondong’s complexion became pale..
Dry saliva was flowing down the back of his neck..
That was visible in Danghwaseo’s eyes as well..
That's what Gyeondong said at that moment..
“What does that mean! Yongbong Danju! What is the difference between that and stealing the elixir?….”
“It's different. Isn't it a fair business?.”
Danghwaseo smiled and spoke, leaving Gyeondong speechless..
It wasn't a story that was absurd or anything..
‘Boo, the atmosphere….’
The atmosphere at the venue had become quite sharp..
Only then did Gyeondong realize that he had made a mistake..
Even if you are good at politics and have a strong back, this is a fact you cannot avoid..
The Murim League was a group of warriors..
In other words, it is clear that the group's attitude of trying to determine right and wrong through politics rather than force is not good..
This was especially true in a gathering of Danju and Daeju like now..
‘got hit!’
While I was thinking about that, Danghwaseo said.
“Oh, of course, since there is a difference in force, we won't go with a normal fight. I also have that level of conscience. The ratio is 10 to 1. We will deal with ten Myeongdang Jinwondans at once. Also, I will not show off my energy. Isn’t this roughly correct??”
It was an aggressive and blatantly dismissive remark, but it was nonetheless one that carried momentum..
It was also reasonable.
In the first place, Danghwaseo also had a justification..
What he proposed was a solution befitting a military man, and in the meantime, he even said something that directly threw away his advantage, so there was no way he could get away with it..
‘foxy…!’
Although he spoke in a pretense of being arrogant, what was hidden inside was the deceitfulness of a fox..
perfect trap.
When Gyeondong realized this, his fist was shaking..
“I agree.”
Geumgeom Kwon Pyo-wol quietly raised his hand and said..
“I think it's a good method. Wouldn't it be better for the whole family to clean up the emotional rift before it gets too deep??”
There was no one here who did not know that Kwon Pyo-wol was close to Yongbongdan..
However, if we put that issue aside, it was like that..
Voting against was a handshake.
Geumgeom Kwon Pyo-wol is a man with an overwhelming approval rating among the members selected for Maeng's next cabinet..
In other words, he is the closest person to the next cabinet leader..
Dokbong Danghwaseo, the owner of Yongbongdan, is a woman who is sure to rise to the position of leading the next generation..
There's nothing good about seeing me outside of their eyes..
Although the current cabinet leader is behind Jinwon Danju Gyeon Dong, his term of office has less than eight years left..
“I also agree.”
The Great Blue Dragon, who was competing with Geumgeom for the position of cabinet leader, was the first to express his intention..
‘It wouldn't be good to have a falling out with Geumgeom..’
No matter who becomes a cabinet member, I will continue to clash with him from now on..
It was decided that it would be better to reduce negative feelings..
The next to vote in favor were Daeju Medical and Daeju Jeokwoon..
The Great Lord of Medicine wanted to be close to Tang Hwaseo, and the Great Lord of Jeokwoon did not like Gyeon Dong's treacherous behavior..
It was obvious what would happen after the major shareholders voted in favor of Bimu..
80% in favor.
With an overwhelming vote, the wedding ceremony was imminent..
Gyeondong’s body trembled..
The goatee's beard also trembled..
‘You can't avoid rain.’
But if we continue like this, we will inevitably lose..
The best expert in Jinwondan is Jo Ryang, the head of the division..
Even he was still at the edge of the top class..
Even if you don't show off your energy, the difference in skill between the best and the best is overwhelming..
‘then…!’
Even if it got ugly, I had to take care of practical benefits even if it got a little more ugly..
“Good! Just one thing, please allow me to hire mercenaries..”
“her….”
Danghwaseo let out a laugh..
Recruiting friendly mercenaries.
This was also customary and there was no problem..
The current policy is competition and harmony.
This is because they are the ones who encourage factions..
‘You're struggling.’
But it wasn't a problem.
There are a total of three mercenaries that can be hired..
Three of the six on this side will face them one by one, and if they get just one win, the match will end in victory..
“great.”
“Thank you for your consideration..”
Cold sweat was running down Gyeondong’s neck..
Danghwaseo just glared at Gyeondong, as if he was about to release everything he had been holding in for so long..
What was exciting was the other owners and major owners..
It was something to see for the first time in a long time..
‘I heard that the swords of the Inky Dragon and the Sword Dragon are so amazing... . I just got a chance to get insight..’
Jeokun Daeju is the most popular among Daeju..
He was particularly enjoying this situation..
*
“bet mix!”
The return of Yongbongdan’s palace.
At Danghwaseo’s proclamation, Mokriwon jumped up and shouted..
“It's so good!”
Both fists were clenched and shaking up and down..
The eyes were shining brightly.
It’s not just a dance, it’s many-to-one.
It is also a fighting technique that uses only pure sword techniques without releasing energy..
The timing was good too..
As I am in the midst of training to pass the exam, my eyes have been opened to numerous attacks, and I am also on the verge of reaching enlightenment..
Isn’t this the perfect place to make up for some of the experience you’re lacking?.
‘Not only that!’
It's an elixir!
Just 4!
Isn't this number exactly the same as the number of other members who worked hard together on this mission but did not receive compensation?!
“As expected, Sozer is amazing.!”
Sozer has thoughts on everything.!
As Mo Ri-won glared at him with awe, Dang Hwa-seo twitched the corner of his mouth..
Zhuge Shan looked up and asked, ‘What are you doing?’.
“So, who was that mercenary??”
“I do not know yet. There will be no more than one climax..”
“Wow... Then I'll take over one of those mercenaries. Wouldn't it be better to reduce the number?….”
“no.”
Danghwaseo’s eyes were burning coldly..
A figure filled with anger.
Jegalsan hiccuped at that..
“Well, then…?”
“The mercenaries are me, Sohyeop Mok, and Geomryong..”
If someone who doesn't know sees Danghwaseo's appearance now, they will see him as an expert of the Black Way rather than a leader of the Murim Alliance, a political faction..
Dang Hwa-seo's smile had a violent look to it that made you think that way..
“We will not give up even a single win. Do you understand??”
Zhuge Shan's body stiffened..
No, all the members stiffened..
Even that Namgung Jincheon.
“answer.”
The members nodded frantically at the sad look of Danghwaseo..
*
The Cabinet of the Murim League was also called the heart of the Murim faction..
He managed the palace, which was divided into a total of three halls centered on Maengjujeon, and as it had such a position, key personnel of the Murim League were stationed in the hall..
And it is no exaggeration to say that the position of the cabinet leader, which is said to be the pinnacle of them all, is a position where all people are above all and one is below; it is literally a position at the very edge of power..
“You're very good at it..”
Cabinet Lord Haepa Sword (？？？) Gyeongwol.
A thin old man with impressive brown skin and bulging eye corners despite his wrinkles having faded..
He sat at the head of the office and looked at Gyeon-dong kneeling in front of him..
What should I say?.
Jinwon Danju Gyeon Dong was the grandson of Cabinet Ju Gyeon Gwol..
“Yes, I started a fight with Yongbongdan and got into a fight.?”
“Yes, that's right….”
I clicked my tongue and said ‘tsk’ to Gyeonggwol..
‘That's not good.’
I ordered Gyeondong to keep Yongbongdan in check, but I had no idea things would go this far..
A situation that can be called a fatal mistake.
‘stupid thing.’
At least this stupid grandson has crossed the line again by babbling without knowing the subject..
“It's not like I was entrusted with a big task, so why can't I do it properly??”
It was just a check.
In order to prevent Gupa and Sega from increasing their position in the market, they were given the sole role of keeping them in check..
But you can't even do that properly, so it's like begging..
Gyeonggwol looked down at his grandson, who had neither ambition nor ability, as if he were pitiful..
Gyeondong’s body trembled..
He spoke urgently, as if trying to make an excuse..
“Oh, it's still possible to fix it! We have reached an agreement to hire three mercenaries, so if your grandfather gives you a military officer in the cabinet,….”
“Are you saying that is a fix?!”
bang!
When Gyeonggwol hit the desk, there was a loud noise..
Gyeondong hiccuped and said ‘Hibb’..
“Sorry, sorry….”
“useless thing!”
Gyeondong’s shoulders slumped..
Gyeonggwol gritted his teeth and then spoke in an angry tone..
“This is the last time. I'm helping you.”
Still, I gave him a chance because he was my only grandchild..
Even though he knew he had no talent, he gave him various elixirs and placed a master by his side..
Nevertheless, this shape is distorted.
“This is why low blood….”
A half-hearted child born from the misbehavior of a now-deceased evil son..
In the end, blood cannot be deceived..
The palace gave up its last hopes..
“Get out of here.”
At those words, Gyeondong's complexion turned pale and his fingertips trembled..
However, there was nothing Gyeondong could say..
As always, he was a loser who did not live up to his grandfather's expectations..
“Okay, thank you.….”
All I could say was words of gratitude..
*
The day has dawned..
Whenever there was a friendly meeting, it was always an unarmed group, but today the excitement was especially great..
There were many reasons.
Yongbongdan’s second dance.
In addition, there was a betting business that had not been held for nearly two years, and there was even talk in the Jinwondan that a cabinet officer had been brought in as a mercenary..
If it's a cabinet secret dance, it's a situation where even warriors who are at their peak and at their peak can appear in the secret dance..
Even though it is a fisherman that does not show off its energy, there is no way that this fisherman has much to see..
“Do you think Mukryong will win? Why haven't you clashed swords yourself?.”
The most excited person today, Jeokwoon Daeju Kang Chan, asked Kwon Pyo-wol..
Unlike his bandit-like appearance, Kang Chan's eyes were shining innocently..
Kwon Pyo-wol laughed and said at that sight..
“If there is no release of energy as I heard,….”
words that hang for a moment.
At the same time, Kwon Pyo-wol, who was thinking about his past meeting with Mok-ri-won, raised the corners of his mouth and answered..
“…Yes, the dragon will definitely win..”
“oh!”
“It's that scary.”
In terms of pure understanding of swordsmanship, Mo Ri-won was by no means below me..
Kwon Pyo-wol knew that the reason he won that day's competition was because the sword technique supported the sword technique he had been refining over a long period of time..
“Of course, if it's one-on-one..”
Kwon Pyo-wol’s face was full of anticipation..
Inexperienced warriors are vulnerable on the battlefield against many people..
This is because learning from a teacher and learning while traveling through rivers are usually conducted on the assumption of a one-on-one situation..
‘Come on, Mukryong. How much have you grown so far?.’
If it's like last time, you'll lose..
However, the Mokriwon that Kwon Pyo-wol knew was not a man who stayed with that much overconfidence..
He was a man who lived with such passion, always moving forward and enjoying it..
Jeokwundaeju Kang Chan made a satisfied face as he saw Kwon Pyo-wol smiling like a boy..
‘You have a good face!’
Kang Chan was a long-time comrade in arms who had gone through bloody times together with Kwon Pyo-wol since he was a low-ranking warrior of Maeng..
He knew the reason why his comrade, who had been dazed and looked like a dead person for some time, had regained his life..
It was exactly from the day of Yongbongdan’s secret dance..
‘It's a mukryong!’
If you think about what Kwon Pyo-wol said, he is probably right..
Strong praise for Jeokundaejou’s Extreme Extermination (？？？).
He inflated his expectations at the thought that he might have a new 'non-mu friend'..
