Chapter 230
Episode 230 What was the first decision that came to mind??
A ray of wind blew, signaling the arrival of a new destiny..
Numerous thoughts passed through Bisain’s mind..
My first thought was doubt..
If all of this is a ploy by the devil to prey on them,?
But I soon erased that thought..
Other people may not know, but the sword dance he experienced was not someone who would pull off such tricks..
“You don't need to intervene directly. You just need to do one thing.”
“What do you want me to do??”
“If I get rid of Yayulhan, treat it like you got rid of it..”
Bisain was surprised. I didn't know that asking for help was like that..
“Why are you asking me that??”
“Of course, I hope that a war will not break out between our school and the demons..”
War between the Demon Cult and the Apostolic Alliance.
Bisain may have imagined a war with the Murim Alliance, but he has never thought of a war with the Demonic Cult. Considering its strength, the Apostolic Alliance will be destroyed. Of course, the Demonic Cult will also suffer great damage. The Murim League will never miss that opportunity..
‘Leave Yayulhan in the hands of the Demon Cult and kill him.?’
The discomfort of not being able to kill my archenemy with my own hands and leaving it to someone else's hands was greater than the joy of killing someone with a sword. My pride was hurt. Even if you kill them, don’t you have to kill them yourself??
Hiding those feelings, Bisain expressed difficulty for another reason..
“Lord Maeng won’t believe that I killed him..”
“You can make me believe it. At least we'll be able to get this over with..”
It wasn't just something I said. Geommugeuk believed in Bisain’s abilities and potential..
After a moment, Bisain asked:.
“You can get rid of Yayulhan?”
“That's up to me..”
The gaze of the sword dance was directed at Sado-maeng. Torches that were lit tightly guarded the night of the Apostolic Alliance..
“It won't be easy for you or me to get there. The people who have already taken that position don't like change and don't trust us. You can't get it without any effort. If you take it easily, it will be easily taken away..”
Bisain thought for a moment and then said firmly:.
“I refuse. Even if I get rid of him, I will get rid of him..”
Bisain turned and walked away. Geommugeuk said from behind.
“If you change your mind, come here at midnight. Because I will come every day.”
Bisain disappeared into the darkness without a word..

“What is the reaction of Maengjujeon??”
Chahwan answered Yayulhan’s question..
“It's quiet.”
Yayulhan did not have an army. He judged and decided on everything himself. When someone asked him why he didn't have an army, he answered:.
We've done well without the military, but I don't know if it's necessary. It was an arrogant statement, but as it became known, the number of followers within the Apostolic League increased even more..
“With the death of Ji-saeng and Ae-cha, there was a major disruption in income. Someone else can take over the fresh vegetables that Jisaeng used to make, but the problem is the wide bread that Aecha and Jindokgeosa made and sold. Due to the death of Jindogeosa, production of the wide range was halted. Why didn't you get the beam production method from Jindogeosa in advance??”
Chahwan couldn't understand. I don't know if it was his favorite car, but if he was Yayulhan, he would have gotten it a long time ago. Because Jindo Geosa was very afraid of Yayulhan..
“What would you have thought if that were the case??”
“I would have thought it was thorough..”
Yayulhan stared at Chahwan with cold eyes. Chahwan sensed that his answer was wrong..
“A leader who takes what his subordinates have can never be the best leader..”
Chahwan looked thrilled. He expressed how thrilled he was and how much he admired Yayulhan, but Yayulhan thought it was just a habitual emotion..
I'm easily impressed. Easy to respect. It's an attitude that Yayulhan doesn't like very much..
But at least Cha-hwan's habitual emotion is not deceptive, so she keeps him by her side. There was a definite temperature difference between the feelings of the two people as they looked at each other..
“You can't be too petty! Because we have to go a long way!”
“yes!”
At that time, a subordinate reported from outside..
“A non-Confucius has come to visit.”
A faint smile appeared on Yayulhan’s lips. For some reason, I thought he would come, but I was right..
“Take it with you!”
And he gestured to Cha-hwan to go away..
“Soin will go away.”
After Chahwan left, Bisain came inside..
“Welcome, non-gongja..”
“Danju, how have you been??”
In a tense atmosphere, the gazes of the two people intertwined in the air. The two were archenemies that everyone recognized. Everyone thought that one of them would be killed by the other. I just don't know when that time will be..
“I don't know if I'm taking up a busy person's time..”
“Our secret master is busier than ever. Now, please sit down..”
Two people sat across from each other at the table. Sibi served tea, but Bisain didn't even touch the teacup..
“I heard the story about Daeyabang.”
“The resistance was so strong that there was nothing I could do..”
“You didn't push it too hard.?”
A reprimand was placed in a gentle question..
“The extreme soldiers may be a bit rough, but that doesn't mean they're people who enjoy killing on purpose..”
Yayulhan took the lead with the extreme troops. From now on, if I say anything wrong, it will be an insult to the extreme military unit, so I silenced the Bisain with these words..
Bisain quietly stared at Yayulhan. Bisain looked scary just by looking at his face, but Yayulhan's two eyes, which contained no emotions, overpowered his cruelty..
The non-sign had to be acknowledged. Until now, I was afraid of Yayulhan. Because I couldn't know what thoughts were in that head that never showed emotions. I was more afraid because I didn't know.
“You really can't know the inside of a person. Daeya Ark, who has devoted his entire life to the original alliance, joins hands with the Murim Alliance. Honestly, I'm scared. When I become the leader, isn't there a law that says a traitor like that won't appear again??”
“The non-gongja has a great personality and will lead the team well..”
“It's not like the Lord was betrayed because he wasn't of great character..”
Yayulhan sensed a certain provocation and confidence in Bisain. Yayulhan's misunderstanding deepened as he saw this different appearance from usual..
‘It seems that the Apostle Lord gave him a hint..’
I would have told him that an invisible war had begun..
Yayulhan did not know that this unusual attitude was due to the sword dance and not the apostle leader..
‘Is it really possible for a brat like you to lead the Sado Murim??’
‘When I get to your age, I will be much bigger than you..’
‘Even when a brat grows up, it is still a brat. You can never sit in the leadership position.’
This was the sincerity in the eyes of the two people. But soft words that were different from their hearts flowed from their mouths..
“I made a mistake that caused misunderstanding..”
“no. Because this was a serious issue, I was sensitive. sorry.”
After apologizing politely, Bisain stood up..
“I need to get up before I make more mistakes..”
Before leaving, Bisain left a few words..
“I only trust Danju.”
Yayulhan nodded reassuringly..
Bisain left the room. I thought I should meet Yayulhan at least once before making a decision. I expected that seeing Yayulhan would make the decision easier, but it was still difficult..
If he wanted to become the Apostle Lord, he had to kill him. But is that time now? And that too by borrowing the sword of the demonic religion.?
When I killed Seok Gwan-chu's grandson and became his successor, I was confident that I would be able to do well in anything in the future..
I realized that I still had never made a big life-changing decision..
Bisign came out and looked up at the sky. The weather has been gloomy these past few days..
* * *
The next day, while I was eating in the guesthouse, the sound came again..
-If you eat in the same place you meet, it's a good time to get assassinated..
It was the beginning of a sword dance performance..
- If you were going to come here like this without being able to hold out for even a day, why did you say you would wait at that cliff??
-Waiting means waiting. Now I'm here to persuade you. Because our fate depends on this matter..
For a moment, Bisain’s chopsticks stopped. He drank a glass of alcohol as an accompaniment. Ylang of the Four Apostles, who was watching, asked worriedly..
“Do you have any concerns??”
“ylang.”
“Yes, Confucius..”
“Do you think I will become the Apostle Lord??”
“What are you saying? Of course, the next leader is Confucius..”
“What I'm saying is, will I still be the leader ten years after becoming the leader?.”
For a moment, Ilang hesitated to answer. Bisign could tell. The person who made him hesitate to answer was Yayulhan..
Ylang answered.
“We will keep you safe for the rest of your life..”
Bisain smiled and started playing with his chopsticks..
The sound of the sword dance was heard again..
-Those people are all going to die too..
-You don't need to involve other people to convince me..
- What I'm saying is that it's not just your problem. The same goes for me right now. People I liked, people who were close to me. My failure will be their failure. Even if I don't want to.
Bisain made no reply. The sword dance no longer pushed him. Instead, I asked to see it one more time..
-I have something to say. See you later at the cliff.
* * *
“Why did you ask to see me??”
At midnight Bisain came out to the cliff..
The sword dance that came first was looking at the stars in the night sky..
“It was cloudy for a few days and I couldn't see the stars, but today I can see them very well..”
Bisain followed Geommugeuk’s gaze and looked up at the night sky. The stars were really falling.
After a while, Geommugeuk opened his mouth first..
“I have something to say to people. My magic spell doesn't break the table..”
Bisain turned his head and looked at the sword dance. Geommugeuk continued speaking while still looking up at the sky..
“I cannot stand to see the powerful trampling on the weak. When I see that, I can't stand it, whether it's from our school, a political faction, or a religious faction. I don't know if you know, but Yayulhan's minions created something called Shinseonchae to play with young people and lead them to destruction. They created a drug called Gwangpok and led even innocent people to death. It's my devil that I can't even look at that damn thing..”
Geommugeuk’s eyes slowly turned from the sky to Bisain. When our eyes met, Geommugeuk asked:.
“What is your apostle??”
Bisain couldn't say anything. Although he vaguely had the determination and ambition to govern the Apostolic League well, he did not yet have a governing ideology that he could state in detail. Perhaps it was natural. Because Bisain was still young.
“Finding the answer might make this decision easier..”
Today, the sword dance left first..
Bisain stood for a long time until late at night..
* * *
The next day, Bisain came to the cliff first..
And as soon as he saw the sword dance, he said coldly:.
“I know what you're trying to do?”
It was a soft word, but it was filled with anger that I couldn't express yesterday..
“Do you even know what it would be like to kill him? If it were easy, I would have endured it like this, knowing for sure that it would kill me one day.?”
“I know it's difficult.”
“No, you don't know. Let me tell you why I don't know. There is something I heard from Lord Maeng before. Yayulhan has absolute experts, so you shouldn't take it lightly. Let me tell you the name of one of them..”
“who is that?”
“Five Thunder God Swords, Baekhaeng (伯杏)).”
Geommugeuk was surprised..
“He was still alive.?”
He was a Jeon Dae-in from Sapa and was a true flying and crawling expert who was destroying Sado Murim at the time..
“So leave while you are on good terms. Go back when your legs are still fine..”
Then Geommugeuk said something unexpected..
“We are also aware of one person..”
“who do you know?”
“Tamar (Multiple Endings)).”
This time Bisain was surprised. He was truly the villain of the villains, causing bloodshed by killing hundreds of political faction warriors in one place. Although his martial arts skills could not be compared to that of Oh-ro-shin-geom, his evil was indescribable..
“These two may not be the end. I'm still going to do it?”
Geommugeuk nodded in response to Bisain’s question..
“I will do it.”
Bisain shook his head in response without any hesitation..
“You are so strangely crazy.”
“Even if I fail, you have nothing to lose. So why are you hesitating? Are you worried about me? That's why I told you about Oroe Shingeom.?”
Bisain was a little embarrassed..
“What are you talking about? why do i care about you?”
“Why are you angry? I was just asking.”
“That's because you say nonsense..”
Geommugeuk continued his persuasion in a gentle tone..
“I know this decision is not an easy one..”
“And yet you're pushing me.”
“Don’t you know this because you’ve experienced it too? The bigger the decision, the more often the first decision that comes to mind is the right one. If you ignore that primal sense, you end up shaking hands at the end of the stick. What was your first decision??”
After a moment, Bisain answered..
“I was thinking of doing it..”
“Then let's do it.”
Bisain knew. There is no end to the worries about this matter. Even after a month or a year, I will still be worried. Just have to throw it away.
And Bisain ran away..
“Good. Let's do it.”
I decided to take it easy.
If it weren't for the sword dance, I wouldn't be where I am today anyway..
I came here to ask you to give up your life as a debt, so let’s pay off that big debt like this..
“Let's do it!”
At least he was someone who wouldn't drag himself into a bad direction, and that's what Geommugeuk was like to him..
Geommugeuk was happy. And he was grateful to Bisain for accepting his offer..
“Thank you. You really thought it through. If it weren't for you, I wouldn't have thought about doing this in the first place..”
“I just hope that when you look back on this moment later, you won't blame yourself and say, "Why did I make such a pathetic decision?".”
The gazes of two people intertwined in the air..
Geommugeuk said to him with eyes full of gratitude..
“Let's not look back now. Later, after we become the Heavenly Demon and the Lord of the Apostles, let's look back later..”
