I Became God of War's Youngest Disciple - Episode 327
327fury
I wasn't very surprised by the sister-in-law's sure answer, but.
Still, I still had questions..
Since when did Yeongsan really become hell??
“From the beginning.”
“…….”
The sister-in-law responded as if she had read my thoughts..
Instead of reacting, I looked around carefully..
They say that when the place you stand changes, the scenery you see also changes... … . Now I think I somewhat understand what that means..
When you see that the place you always thought of as your heart's home, now looks completely different..
I was able to see the world from a completely different perspective than I did about 91 days ago.…….
Now I feel like I fully understand part of a very wide world..
If the world were a huge forest, it felt like I was finally seeing a huge tree..
“Even in the world I live in, there is a place called Yeongsan. Did I mention this??”
I witnessed my sister-in-law smiling slightly and shaking her head before continuing..
“… It's a completely different place than here. Actually, I haven't been there myself. However, when looking at photos and literature, the overall atmosphere was quite similar..”
“The world Luan lives in is special. Because it is directly connected to hell..”
“Directly? ah…….”
A little late, I realized the meaning of those words..
Most of the continent is a dark area untouched by humans..
Most of the land where seven races once lived has been eroded by famine, pestilence, paganism, and demons, and currently only a single nation called the Unknown Empire remains..
Musical instruments have deeply permeated the land where numerous kingdoms and peoples flourished in the past, and those who do not have the ability to resist magic cannot survive even for a moment outside the empire..
The saying that the whole place is full of musical instruments means that the world is turning into hell..
After accepting this uncomfortable fact, I began to understand many of the elements that I had not understood before..
“…Wow.”
But that didn't make the absurd feeling go away, and I was exhausted, so I scratched my head and stretched out on my stomach..
It was a rather reckless act to commit in front of my sister-in-law, but I'm very tired, so I think you'll understand.?
“…….”
The cool touch of the rocky mountain felt pleasant..
It is completely different from the wobbly and unstable sky stairs. I felt with my whole body the sensation of being firmly rooted in the ground..
Somehow, I felt like my entire body's senses had become much sharper through this practice..
Sister didn't scold me.
Instead, I heard a crunching sound, and before I knew it, I felt a figure lying down next to me..
For a moment, we quietly looked at the damp gray sky and watched the stars..
***
When I think about it, I think this is the first time in my life that I have been stargazing like this in earnest..
As I lay still and looked up at the sky and counted the stars, it somehow became difficult to fully concentrate on stargazing..
Naturally, other thoughts arose, and I decided to think of the sky as one of the pleasures of stargazing..
A certain constellation looked like a mountain, so my thoughts led to the spiritual mountain where I was currently lying down.…….
Somehow, I felt like I knew why the Great Master named the area where he stayed in my world Yeongsan..
To me, Yeongsan was a place filled with memories of my teacher and my brother-in-law, but to Daesang-hyung, it was just a place in hell..
Since it was a place with a similar environment and similar characteristics, it was no wonder that it was called Yeongsan..
In that case, the identity of the unidentified monsters in Yeongsan can be said to be demons.…….
I found a constellation that looked like a tongue and reflexively closed my eyes and opened my mouth..
“Among the devils, there are some who are particularly strong..”
“…….”
“They are cruelly called venomous believers, and they are like monsters who are on a par with the excommunicated ambassadors. But for some reason, they were very obsessed with me..”
When I opened my eyes again, it strangely became difficult to find the tongue constellation..
I continued speaking in a calm voice..
“Could that be related to the fact that Yeongsan was hell??”
“The demons I saw were particularly sensitive to their territory. Not only was he obsessed with his own territory, he also tried to expand it by attacking other demons. The same goes for this land. Until now, I have been invaded by such demonic spirits countless times. I've never been successful.”
The sister-in-law's voice was soft, so at first it seemed like it was an ordinary story, but in reality, it was not at all..
At this point, I raised my upper body and looked at my sister-in-law, but my sister-in-law, who had been lying down with me, got up and stood on the cliff again..
“Does this mean that Yeongsan was an inviolable land??”
“It was like that in the past.”
“…You say it's the past.”
“Luan, Master is currently missing..”
“…….”
I blinked my eyes.
“Are you missing? what does that mean-.”
“It means his whereabouts are unknown.…….”
“No, of course I understand what it means. What does it mean that Master is missing?…….”
Baek No-gwang was sometimes absent..
From as short as a few hours to as long as several months.
But I didn't think Baek No-kwang was missing because he hadn't even been seen for months..
I am a person whose path is where I go..
If you get lost in the forest, you will destroy the forest, and if you are shipwrecked in the middle of the ocean, you will overturn the sea..
And you probably know that better than me.?
“I heard that the third one is currently looking for Master's whereabouts, but there is no significant result..”
The reason why the third executioner was busy was suddenly revealed, and the sister-in-law continued..
“I said it before. There are countless absolute beings in this world... … . However, the one who conquers the [Rocky Mountains] is truly the best in the world - or is called the God of War. In other words, Musin is the only ruler of this endless mountain range..”
“…….”
“Do you understand now? Why do they want to have Luan?.”
“…I'm not sure.”
I'm not stupid, but what my sister-in-law said was so shocking that for the first time in a long time, I felt like my brain was frozen..
My sister-in-law didn't care about my attitude and just smiled..
“It's a simple problem. Luan is of the blood of the one and only owner of the Rocky Mountains..”
“yes?”
“yes. That's right. Luan is actually Master’s direct blood relative… … . In other words, he is his biological son..”
At this point I couldn't stand it anymore and jumped up..
My sister-in-law looked at me with the fur on my whole body standing up and said,.
“just joke.”
“no… really.”
We were talking so seriously that I forgot my sister-in-law's playfulness for a moment..
The sister-in-law seemed to have seen my face and smiled lowly..
“But it's not all a joke. It is true that Luan is the current owner of this land..”
“… Why are you folding again? Putting aside the death penalty, the death penalty for your sister-in-law or sister-in-law is much more appropriate.?”
“Even if it's empty words, I don't say it's the third one.?”
“I think I'll still do better than the third death penalty..”
Sister Cheon also sighed and nodded..
This is because the second sister-in-law, who was easy-going and sly in everything, often found herself in a state of confusion when talking to the third sister-in-law..
Is it a compatibility as a person?.
In my view, it was a problem caused by trying to talk logically with a person armed with all kinds of sophistry and nonsense..
“I don't know why. But I think Master's choice is right..”
“Why?.”
“Out of the five of us, Luan is the only one who has the potential to become a martial god..”
“…It's a bit burdensome..”
“Moderate pressure is a good stimulant..”
After saying that, the sister-in-law looked at me and made a face..
“…….”
Meaning there is no need for further conversation.
I also smiled and made a face-to-face attitude..
For about seven days, I sparred with my sister at the top of Mt..
If sparring with Arang and his brother is to sharpen one's senses so that one can respond to various means,…….
Sparring with Sister Cheon always brought up a new topic for me..
The sparring itself always ended quickly. Most of them ended within the first sum or one breath, and even the longest sparring never lasted longer than 1 day..
However, because I felt quite a bit from those short fights, I spent several hours, sometimes more than a day, just on the repetition of sparring..
At times like that, my sister-in-law would get me something to eat or prepare tea without interrupting my thoughts..
Although we were neither hungry nor thirsty, we enjoyed the meal and tea ceremony and talked about trivial matters..
It started like that, but since we were both martial arts by nature, as we talked, we naturally drifted towards martial arts..
“Amcheonwolhyanggeuk is a mind technique modeled after the constellations, but proficiency is still insufficient. It's improved a lot compared to the beginning, but it still doesn't feel natural to use the machine..”
“I once fought a guy called the Demon King of the Blood Moon, and I have never been so helpless in my life. It was shaped like a black sphere, and even though it was far away, it was hitting my body before I knew it. How would you have responded if you were your sister-in-law??”
“The short range of the recommended method sometimes feels like a big disadvantage. I try to improvise and respond in a timely manner, but it's frustrating sometimes..”
At times like that, my sister answered all the questions with a calm smile..
“To improve your proficiency in martial arts modeled after nature, you need to see and hear a lot. It would be a good idea to take your eyes off the human body structure or efficiency for a moment and observe the night sky when there is no progress. If you look at the cluster of stars that fill the sky, you may come to realize something..”
“Distance is perceived by the human eye. If an error occurred in that sense, it would be because we were unable to give up the habit of relying on sight. Next time a similar situation comes, it would be better to close your eyes..”
“The short range of the recommended method is more of an inherent feature rather than a disadvantage. For example, even if there is an expert who has reached the level of a master with a single sword, there will still be an awkward distance for that warrior. This is probably something Luan also senses. And if he was able to improvise and change the situation in every crisis situation, that is Luan's skill and talent. I'd say he's doing great..”
The sister's casual reply was full of insight, and every time she said that, I could feel the difference in her level as a warrior..
The advice that was so close to the right answer that I couldn't come up with even if I held my head for three days and nights shook my head at times..
If I had heard this from someone else, I might have despaired or even been jealous of the difference in talent.…….
I didn't have that feeling right now..
Rather, I'm proud that this kind of warrior is my sister-in-law..
Just like that, time passed in an instant. It was enough time to completely melt the martial arts skills I had refined into my own..
“My sister-in-law has nothing to give me.?”
last day.
I asked with a grin..
Because it reminded me of the coin I received from my brother-in-law. Thanks to that coin, I was able to stop the devil's plan..
“I have nothing to give you, but I want to show you something..”
“I want to show you?”
“yes. I should see Luan at least once..”
My sister-in-law led me with a calm voice, and this time we started descending..
The descent wasn't difficult at all for me now, so I was able to reach the ground in the blink of an eye..
I walked for a while after that..
“…….”
Where are we going?.
Could it be that I lead you to another mountain peak??
I suppressed my curiosity and looked around, but there were only rough-looking rocks everywhere..
After walking for a while, I came across a place that could be called a canyon again, and at the end of it there was an extremely steep cliff..
The moment we reach the end.
“…….”
Suddenly, I felt the pain of my skull being crushed..
Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr……!
It's a vibration that feels like the heavens and earth are turning over..
As if a major earthquake had occurred, which was sometimes said to have brought disaster to the continent, the rocky mountains, rocks, and ground that seemed solid began to crack and collapse..
All the visible scenery began to collapse as if it had suddenly come to an end..
I could have held on with just that, but my body was swaying like an aspen tree hit by a strong wind..
The instrument inside me that had barely stabilized started running wild again..
“Kusup…….”
I forcibly held back from bleeding to the point of hemoptysis, and surrounded my inner strength like strength..
Only then did the instrument become quiet and the tremors of my body stop, but inside I was dumbfounded..
At best, you must mobilize your strength to counter the feeling of intimidation? Isn't it like hiding behind a castle wall because you're afraid of your opponent's life?.
What on earth is underneath this cliff??
“Luan, look carefully..”
and-.
Darkness stirred beneath the bottomless pit with no end in sight..
Quaaaaaaaaaaaaa-!
-I dare say, it was an emergency of great evil..
In an instant, something so large that the entire field of vision turned black was slowly flying up..
“…….”
I was left speechless..
How on earth should I express that existence?.
The being was soaring, with feathers swirling everywhere, evil energy, and a shock as if Mount Tai had been uprooted..
It was so overwhelming that even the frost giant Ymir thought he would turn into a kid if he stood in front of it, and the awe was so great that he even forgot the atmosphere it was emitting..
The halo looming ominously above the top of the head seemed very foreign to that theme..
I felt the urge to close my eyes for a moment, but.
“Luan.”
My sister-in-law's voice woke me up..
The pressure eased a little..
Only then did I realize that I had even forgotten to breathe, and I caught this being in my eyes again..
Cooung, cooung, cooung.
The heart throbbed madly, the instrument wriggled..
Yes.
This is my first time seeing this being, but I knew its identity from the moment I encountered it..
An instrument that was deeply rooted in the body of an Iron Blood Ball, a power that I have now recovered and become my inner strength..
The instrument was not of the large type..
The last evil spirit and demon chief that I have not been able to face directly or indirectly..
‘Great Disaster Behemoth.’
When I could only watch the destruction of my ego, I heard my sister's voice..
“face it.”
“…….”
“Someday, you will have to defeat it..”
And my consciousness gradually fades away…….
I realized that my time in Yeongsan was over..
Violation of this may result in criminal and civil legal liability..
