Chapter 216
Episode 216: Is Extreme Soma scary??
At dawn the next day, a carriage secretly left the Heavenly Demon Church..
It was a carriage with a sword dance, a very evil soma, and a poison king riding on it..
And there were two people watching from afar. They were the Heavenly Demon Geom Woo-jin and the Commander-in-Chief Sima Myeong..
“I have to resign from my position as Commander-in-Chief..”
When Geom Woo-jin looked at him with an expression asking what he meant, Sima-myeong smiled in self-deprecation..
“I never imagined that Duke Lee would make the poison king bark at the great banquet hall. I knew that Lee Gongja was extraordinary, but I didn't know that he would even take down the King of Poison..”
Geom Woojin nodded..
“It's the same for me too.”
“There is one more shock. But I didn't know that the teacher would allow this..”
“What should I do? I promised.”
Sama- myeong knows that Geom Woo-jin is a person who never breaks his promises. That's why it should have been cut from the beginning, but it gave room for the poisonous king..
‘Didn’t the leader expect it to happen like this??’
Sima Ming thought that might be the case. Regarding the sword dance performance, I couldn't understand Geom Woo-jin's feelings at all..
“While this is going on, please fully disclose information to the second child..”
“Yes, Tongcheongak will definitely support you..”
“Be prepared for unexpected situations.”
There are two most serious situations that you may not know. The mission is successful, but it is revealed that it was the Celestial Demon God who dealt with Yayulhan, or Geommugeuk and the two demons fail to kill him, putting him in danger..
In both cases, the aftermath will be serious. Although the Apostolic Alliance will not be able to start a war against the Heavenly Demon Church, they will demand appropriate compensation and if they do not accept it, they may end up joining hands with the Murim Alliance. It was also a serious problem when sword dances and mazons died or were seriously injured..
How can Geom Woo-jin not know this fact? Nevertheless, permission was given.
‘Are you hoping that this incident will destabilize the situation in Moorim??’
Sima Myeong knew that Geom Woo-jin would one day draw his sword against Wu-rim. A sudden thought occurred to me that maybe they were trying to start this with this incident..
Anyway, one thing was certain. It's not just the Mazons that have changed. I can't say anything about Cheonma, but he has definitely changed. Because I could tell just by looking at that carriage here that I would not have left in the first place..
‘Master Lee, please make sure you succeed and come back..’
And the wind of change was blowing not only within the Church of the Heavenly Demon but also towards the martial arts world..

The person driving the carriage was Seo Dae-ryong..
When I went to Seo Dae-ryong last night and told him that we should leave together tomorrow, he started to attack me harshly..
“I don't like it! How dangerous are you going to take me this time??”
“It's no big deal. Just drive a carriage or something. I'll run some errands later..”
“Does that make it even more suspicious? There's a dangerous smell in the air..”
“It must be the smell of adventure. It's the smell of growth and the smell of memories..”
“When it all comes together, it becomes a dangerous smell. Sorry, but I'm not going! With my victory in Soryong, my lifelong adventure came to an end. Didn't I tell you that I would live the rest of my life bragging about that??”
“It can't be done without you.”
“There are so many mines at our school.?”
“This is because the fate of me, our school, and Moorim are at stake. I need someone I can trust who will keep my secret until death. At least there won't be any evil woman trying to tempt you..”
“You're stabbing me where it hurts again.”
This was the one word that decidedly moved him..
“I'm going to handle the case..”
Then all the playfulness disappeared from Seo Dae-ryong’s expression..
“Then we should go.”
Seo Dae-ryong came by carriage this morning with the intention of punishing the person behind this incident..
“But why do you want to take a carriage? Let’s go to Gyeonggong together.?”
“Because it's not just the two of us going.”
“yes?”
Seo Dae-ryong took a quick look inside the carriage and was startled. He dragged me away from the carriage and whispered,.
“Why are those two people in the carriage??”
“That's because you come together to help me..”
“You didn't say that the carriage I had to drive was the carriage that the Extreme Evil Demon and the Poison King rode in! Come on, tell me everything. Who is your enemy??”
“wild.”
Seo Dae-ryong blinked for a moment and asked..
“There is only one Yayulhan I know... No, right? Hey, what kind of joke are you making so extreme? Please tell me no.”
The moment he turned around and ran away, I said.
“You have to tell that child yourself. We are here to avenge your family..”
Seo Dae-ryong turned around again. He said, walking towards the coach seat with slumped shoulders..
“If you say that, I can't not go.!”
I know that Seo Dae-ryong was joking for no reason. It may be scary, but I'm not the type of man to fall for something like this..
You'll want to avenge your child, and more than anything, it's a journey you'll be taking with me. During my last expulsion from the church, he became a disciple of Hyeolcheondoma and the winner of the Soryongjeon..
Seo Dae-ryong was needed for this matter. That's the case with this carriage right now. If I had driven the carriage, there would have been a truly suffocating silence inside the carriage with Extreme Soma and the Poison King riding in it..
Extreme Evil Soma and the Poison King had not said a single word since they greeted each other when they first got on the carriage. They were two people who weren't really close friends..
It was what I expected from the beginning. And I didn't intentionally try to make them friends. If there's an opportunity, we'll become friends, otherwise, when we go back, it'll be like this..
“Currently, we have received all information about them from Tongcheongak, and we plan to receive additional information as well..”
Although they did not tell the two, Eunwol, led by Gowol and Pungcheon, was also actively receiving information about this incident. The two also decided to join the scene and help with this matter..
“The place we are currently going is the place where the golden pig Jisaeng, who made fresh vegetables, is located. I'll tell you the plan when I get there..”
“The plan will follow Lee Gong-ja’s wishes..”
The Poison King glanced in this direction in response to Extreme Soma's polite reply. It looked like he wanted to say something, but he seemed to be holding back because he had a very evil soma..
―Let me ask you just one question. Why does Extreme Soma like you so much??
―But why do you send a message instead of a word??
―I'm not even close with that person, so how can I ask that? Have you discovered your weakness? Why are you so nice to me??
―If you speak in full tone, I won't answer. Be a man and just ask.!
The poison king turned his head to the window..
Extreme Soma noticed that the Poison King had sent me a message and looked at me. I smiled and nodded once to him. Just exchanging glances like this made me feel better. It was really surprising.
The Poison King asked something other than the content related to Extreme Soma..
“Will plans that don't exist now arise when I arrive??”
“The soldiers who are not there now will be there when they arrive..”
“soldier? Sima Commander?”
The poison king did not know that Gowol and Pungcheon religious leader had become his people..
“No, I have military too..”
“There's already an army?”
“If you want to survive in this harsh martial forest, you need soldiers. Everyone has at least one soldier who can't play baduk.?”
The Poison King gave an expression that he could not understand. Normally, it would have been a moment when he would have said something harsh, but he seemed to be holding back because he had the worst soma. There are some good things about these two being together..
―Are you scared of Soma??
I thought you were going to tell me not to be funny.
―Then you're not scared? Just looking at that mask makes my heart tremble.
It was an unexpected answer. Who would have thought that the Poison King would be so afraid of the evil Soma?.
―Right now, Soma is trembling as he looks at the Poison King’s poison pouch..
―That can't be possible. That person is not afraid of death.
I had no idea that Extreme Soma was being evaluated like this..
―What about the poison king??
―I'm scared of dying. Aren’t you a person who is so scared that you don’t even come out of the forest??
Are you afraid of dying? Or are you afraid of killing??
Instead of asking what I wanted to ask, I asked the poison king something else..
“How do you feel about leaving school after such a long time??”
The Poison King's gaze was directed outside the moving carriage..
“What are your thoughts? There was a time when I was tired of wandering around the midfield..”
“The poison king?”
“Then, would you have obtained the position of King of Poison from Cheondoglim? When I was young, I went to the central plain to get poison..”
Why did he stay in the forest??
But I didn't ask. Someday, when you share your feelings, you will naturally find out. Let’s listen to the day when I reveal that I am invincible to all poisons..
It was then.
The carriage suddenly stopped with the sound of urgent horses neighing..
If it were an ordinary person, he would have been thrown forward and thrown down, but Mazon was Mazon. The two stayed calmly in their seats..
Seo Dae-ryong of the coachman said urgently:.
“sorry! Suddenly a deer jumped out of the bushes on the side of the road..”
“Let's take a break, let's take a break. I think the horse was surprised too..”
I got off the carriage with the two mazons..
Seo Dae-ryong bowed to the two mazons and expressed his apologies again..
The evil Soma he was most afraid of could have almost flown into the front seat of the carriage and hit him. What if even a corner was broken by the impact? Seo Dae-ryong's complexion turned white as if he was imagining something like that..
To ease the tension, I formally introduced Seo Dae-ryong..
“I am the best disciple of Mr. Thomas. I am currently learning German martial arts from an elderly person..”
Extreme Evil Soma was not surprised because he already knew, but the Poison King was surprised..
“A disciple of Thomas?”
It seems that it was surprising that this small and dwarf man was the next Hyeolcheon Doma..
It gave more power to Seo Dae-ryong..
“He's also my right hand man..”
The Poison King's eyes turned to me. Even your right hand man? I said powerfully with that look in my eyes..
“I feel very reassured because I have that friend..”
Then the Poison King's eyes turned to Seo Dae-ryong again. Of course, Seo Dae-ryong was a hundred times more burdened..
“These are words of excessive praise..”
Seo Dae-ryong bowed his head respectfully. At the same time, the electric sound flies.
―Don't do it! Please don’t let the Mazons see me! Please treat me like a person without me.!
When Seo Dae-ryong raised his head, I smiled and said,.
“He also won the Soryong Battle held by the best political faction commentators..”
I made sure to finish it while watching Seo Dae-ryong cursing me with his eyes and telling me to stop..
“The two of you will meet again in the distant future at the Mazon Gathering..”
Seo Dae-ryong, who gave up everything, looked up at the sky with a liberated face and smiled. I made fun of everyone, so I have to go now..
“Now, let's go..”
We got back in the carriage.
Seo Dae-ryong, who had been driving the carriage with excitement just a moment ago, drove the carriage cautiously like a novice coachman. I was afraid that I would have to stop suddenly like before..
I said loudly to the coachman..
“If you run this slowly, you'll have to switch places with me. Do you want to come in here??”
The next moment, the carriage started running at breakneck speed..
* * *
The carriage ran and ran again..
In order to leave no trace as much as possible, we camped without stopping in the village. When I ran out of the alcohol and food I had prepared, I went hunting, cooked the food, and served it to the mazons..
The Dog King who tasted my cooking for the first time was impressed and said I was good at everything..
So we continued to drive the carriage and arrived at the area where the golden pig Ji-saeng was located..
Gowol and the leader of Pungcheon welcomed us at the safe house there..
When the King of Dog saw Gowol and the leader of the Pungcheon Church there, he asked me..
―Why is the leader of Pungcheon here??
―I have a special relationship with my military..
―I heard that the leader of Pungcheon left his position, and it was because of you..
―No, but do you keep sending telegrams? Speak confidently. Master Pungcheon, what are you doing here? Why is the poisonous king of the world so scared??
―Are you doing this because you’re scared? It's because it's awkward.
―Is it okay to bark in front of so many people? It's okay to be proud in front of your father..
―Because that's something that has to be done. I feel uncomfortable with all these people..
Still, it was a moment when I felt that my relationship with the Poison King had developed. Because you were honestly telling me those feelings..
After letting the two Majons undress in their respective rooms, I sat down with Gowol separately..
“You are amazing. You even move the heart of the poison king!.”
“What made those people move was closer to favor or curiosity towards me rather than loyalty to me..”
“I think that goodwill can be more powerful than loyalty..”
“That would be nice, but.”
I think my relationship with the Mazons is just beginning..
Getting truly close to someone is difficult. But what is more difficult than that is leading that close relationship. When the freshness and interest in new people disappear, boredom and disappointment are bound to take their place. There is still a long way to go with the Amazons..
“This matter needs to be handled more carefully than any other matter..”
He knew better than anyone else the seriousness of this matter..
“In fact, considering the skills of Confucius and Majon, it is not difficult to deal with the subordinate's private room. The problem is to not leave any traces of our school in their deaths and not to make Yayulhan nervous as a result..”
Gowol seemed to have already thought a lot about this and that..
“I'll stick to your plan..”
I'm not saying this to make you feel better. I plan to strictly follow Gowol’s words. How to raise a good soldier? It's simple. Follow his plan and make that plan succeed. The higher the military's confidence, the better the next plan will be. I will just have to improvise and deal with the parts that go awry in his plan..
“Our first goal, Jisaeng, is trying to make a new fresh vegetable. I recently found someone to entrust that job to..”
This is why it is useless to punish the inferiors. The fresh vegetables will disappear only if you get rid of the people who have made money from them..
Gowol said with an expression that he had already made a plan..
“It is said that he who chases a deer cannot see the mountain. It will ultimately be your own greed that kills him..”
I guessed his plan and smiled and said.
“I need to let people who like immortals know that among immortals there are also bad guys..”
