Episode 346: Let us kill first.
The carriage ran quickly towards Sadomaeng..
Bisain was silently looking out the window, thinking about the reason behind this incident..
I'm an enemy plotting against the martial arts group. It's grandiose..
If you look back at the history of Moorim, you will find that people who make such big accidents happen once in a while over several generations..
Originally, I would have continued to plot. I got caught because of one person. It's because I was plotting in the era where that person was present..
Bisain’s gaze turned to Geommugeuk sitting across from him..
Geommugeuk had his eyes closed. Even while having a conversation with himself, whenever he had some free time, he would recite some verses and indulge himself in the practice. He seems to be a person united by talent, but it turns out that he is united through hard work..
Bisain’s gaze was directed to the seat next to Geommugeuk. The box of sun and moon swords he had given as a gift was standing next to him. Even though I told him to put it in the carriage, he insisted like a child that he would leave it next to me..
At that time, the carriage shook violently..
The person's butt lifted up, and the sword box next to it also floated up..
It looked like the box was going to hit the floor, but it floated in the air and then quietly returned to its original position..
Geommugeuk protected the sword box with an empty object. I thought I was crying or sleeping. In the meantime, he was paying attention to the sword box..
“I appreciate you cherishing my gift, but I don't feel comfortable throwing away the box and only wearing a sword.?”
Then Geommugeuk answered with his eyes closed..
“I'm going to give you a sword as a gift. Wouldn't it be better if you put it in a sword box??”
It was a formal box for storing the sun and moon sword, and the sun and moon were beautifully engraved on the box..
“Do you care so much about who you give it to??”
“I'll give it to my heart.”
When I looked at him with an expression asking if this was some kind of joke, Geommugeuk opened his eyes..
“There is someone as important as my heart. I will give this precious sword to anyone.?”
It's fitting that he genuinely cares for someone, but on the other hand, he was a person who gave off this feeling when performing sword dance..
“Because you seem like the kind of person who would give a treasured sword to a stranger walking down the street..”
“You're misunderstanding me. I hate losing money. If I give a sword to someone I don't know, I'm giving it to that person for something ten times more precious..”
“Then what are you aiming for and giving to that heart??”
“The heart is an exception. Even if I'm not aiming for anything, he's the kind of person who tries to give me everything he has..”
After hearing those words, Bisain thought about who he would give a gift to..
no one came to mind.
If I had to give it to him, I thought I would give it to Ilang among the Apostles. Now that I think about it, I realized that I don't yet have a friend who would willingly give me such a precious gift..
The Demonic Cult leader should not be your only friend..
Bisain looked at the sword dance again. Rather than his usual playful appearance, Geommugeuk was looking at the flowing scenery with calm and deep eyes..
Just as Bisain turned his head to the window on the other side, Geommugeuk suddenly spoke..
“Both my magician and your apostle will have a long way to go. If it is erected incorrectly, erect it again. When you come up with a better idea, tear it down and build it again. So let's not be too hasty..”
“Why do you suddenly say that??”
“A thought occurred to me and I did it. If I have to say it later, I end up forgetting it and not being able to do it. So these days, I try my best to say everything that comes to mind..”
“That's why you talk so much.”
“Isn’t the chatty little teacher better? Rather than a taciturn leader who doesn't know what's going on?”
“The problem is that even though you're a chatterbox, I can't figure out what's inside you..”
Geommugeuk looked out the window again with an unknown smile..
Bisain wouldn’t know. How lonely his life was before his return. How precious this chatty life feels..
“What did Yu Geommunju confess??”
Geommugeuk guessed that King Taejo of Yugeommunju had confided something..
“They said that the person who arranged the task of rescuing the children from the Bigammun was Pyo Gi-gwang, the former owner of the Black Dragon..”
notation fanatic.
He is a character I don't remember from the sword dance drama. He was probably used as expendable material by someone and then abandoned..
“He suffered a serious injury about ten years ago and resigned from his position as the leader of the Black Dragon. Since then, he has been living like an outcast..”
“Someone recruited him..”
“I think so. Considering that he gave various interests to Bigeommun, the person behind the vote division must be a person with power..”
I thought that the sword dance drama would definitely be like that..
“Maybe it's someone you know well..”
Bisain agreed to Geommugeuk’s words. There is no way a person in power within the Apostolic Alliance would not know. The question is who?.
“Why did you say you needed children??”
Bisain hesitated for a moment whether to answer this question. What if this incident has nothing to do with the organization that previously infiltrated the Demonic Cult and the Murim Alliance, and is really a secret organization within the Apostle Alliance? It would be like revealing the secret of the Apostolic Alliance to the leader of the Demonic Cult..
“You said you were going to create a secret organization.?”
Bisain was shocked for a moment. He's so perceptive that even if he wanted to, he couldn't..
“exactly.”
Bisain answered honestly. Geommugeuk was reading Bisain’s concerns accurately..
“I'm worried that this secret organization might be related to the organization I mentioned.?”
“exactly.”
“Even so, if it is a secret organization prepared without your knowledge, wouldn't it be a problematic organization? You will benefit by leaking information to me. So think positively..”
Originally, I came along to the Sadomaeng to help, but even if Geommugeuk gets angry and asks if I'm planning to hide the information, I won't have anything to say..
However, Geommugeuk was looking at this incident out of consideration for himself, the opponent..
“If something bothers you, handle it privately. If you need help, let me know.”
He was still making himself the main character..
Yes, if you were planning to calculate the practical benefits of a sword dance like this and make a fuss, you shouldn't have brought him in the first place..
“No, I will share all the information so please help me..”
Geommugeuk smiled. It was the smile he showed earlier when he publicly dealt with the matter with King Taejo..
You're doing well..
That smile that seems to say this.
Whether he knows his feelings or not, Geommugeuk began to figure out who was behind this incident..
“If a secret organization is actually being created within the organization, who would know about it??”
“Some information is coming to me as well. However, if this happened without my knowledge, it must have been led by the leader and the general..”
The two most difficult people to deal with in the Apostolic League were mentioned..
They are behind the scenes.?
For now, one person was excluded from the sword dance performance..
Lord Apostle. He was killed by Hwamugi before returning, so they can't be on the same side..
“What kind of person is the commander-in-chief??”
“He is a person whose loyalty to the Lord is truly strong. I would like to tell you that if you doubt the General Military, you are wasting your time. He is a person who has a very deep loyalty not only to the Lord, but also to the Apostle Alliance..”
It is impossible to understand the human mind. First of all, if we exclude the total military as Bisain said,.
“Who else could there be??”
“What the heck?”
“Couldn't someone have done this without the two of you knowing??”
If this took place without the knowledge of the Apostle Lord or the General Military, this incident could be considered treason. If that's the case, there's a high possibility that it was the people the sword dance was talking about..
“If he had the power to give benefit to Yugeommun, he could become a member of a state or a single state. It could be an elder-level greeting..”
“Let’s keep open the many possibilities and think about them..”
“First, I will secretly investigate the sobriety of votes..”
Geommugeuk shook his head at Bisain’s words..
“I don't have time for that. By the time we arrive at the Sado Alliance, we will know that the mastermind behind this incident is also dead, and that even Yu Geommunju has been taken to the Sado Alliance. The person behind it probably thinks that not only can he no longer save the children, but his true identity may also be revealed..”
That was correct. Investigating secretly will only give the other party time to prepare..
“Let's tackle it head on. The martial skills of those who were active in the Heavenly Demon Church, the Murim Alliance, or the Pungcheon Church were almost at the level of a Majon. The method of infiltration was also unusual. If you don't push for it quickly, it will cut off its tail and disappear..”
Bisain also agreed with Geommugeuk’s words. but there was a problem.
“It is not difficult to catch and investigate Pyo Dan-ju. However, there is something that bothers me. I heard that Pyo Danju said this when Yoo Geommunju confessed. He said that the evil fortune of the Apostolic Alliance hung over the secret organization he was creating. If he really believes that he is carrying out a secret operation for Maeng, he will not confess. Maybe I could commit suicide.”
That wasn't the only worry. Bisain had one more thing to worry about..
“The person behind this may kill Pyo Danju to cut off the tail..”
There was a solution to that worry in Geommugeuk. It was an unimaginable way, but.
“Then let us kill first..”
“What?”
Bisain looked at the sword dance with wide eyes, but only incomprehensible words continued..
“Let's cut off that tail and take it first..”
* * *
“How long are you going to live like that??”
The noisy surroundings became quiet due to someone shouting. Everyone's eyes turned to the two people in the banquet hall..
“Still, he was someone I once respected, so why did he get ruined like this??”
Even today, Pyo Ki-gwang gathered the warriors at the banquet hall and was boasting about his adventures when he was sober. Is it because I was drunk and too excited? Someone scolded himself.
“Don't be embarrassed by your juniors.?”
The opponent was no one else but a military officer who was a subordinate of the Black Dragon. As he said, he was a person who followed his orders well..
Aren’t you embarrassed by your juniors? what? What is so shameful about talking about old times while drunk??
I wanted to scream.
‘How much I devoted myself to Meng! Can’t you guys even listen to this shit??’
But I couldn't bring myself to say anything. Everyone around them was looking pitifully at themselves. Because it wasn't the first time I've seen something like this today..
Mark Ki-gwang stumbled and walked out of there. I wasn't that drunk, but I stumbled on purpose. I thought it would be even more miserable if I didn't do this..
In the past, he behaved like a real loser. However, recently, I have been acting out the life of a former ruined person. To show that I'm still a useless person.
But after experiencing the same thing today, my heart became cold. At least it wasn't my intention to receive such reprimand and humiliation from my former subordinate..
If he had been a real wreck, he would have broken the bottle and screamed. Now I was turning away like this with a bitter heart..
‘Even if my martial arts skills were the same as before, would you guys be able to do this??’
As long as he thought about this, his bitterness could not help but deepen..
It was when I entered that quiet path..
Suddenly, a masked person blocked his path..
Before I could ask who it was, the masked man drew his sword and rushed at me..
I pulled out my sword and tried to block, but the opponent was moving too fast. This is how you die! The very moment when despair overtook him.
Chaeng!
Someone blocked the opponent's attack by blocking the marking light..
The masked man who failed in the surprise attack quickly ran away from there..
The man who blocked the attack turned towards Ki-gwang. Pyo Gi-gwang was surprised when he confirmed the identity of the person who saved him..
“Little Lord?”
Several warriors from the Apostles' Thirteen Rings chased after the fleeing masked man and ran away..
“It's okay?”
“Thanks to you, I lived.”
“I'm glad it's not too late.”
Pyo Ki-gwang was inwardly surprised and puzzled..
“Why is Somaengju here??”
“I didn't happen to pass by and ask for the ticket. I was on my way to meet Danju Pyo..”
“me?”
It was truly unexpected for a notation fanatic..
At that time, the Thirteen Apostles who chased after the masked man returned..
“I missed it. He was a man of great light engineering skills..”
But the notation fanatic did not know. The number of warriors chasing after them has increased by one more and they have returned. The masked person who attacked Pyo Ki-gwang earlier was Geommugeuk..
He pretended to run away, then changed into his Apostle Thirteen League uniform and returned with them..
Of course, there was no way the notation fanatic would have known that fact. He was wondering why Bisain had come to visit him..
“Who was the person who tried to kill Danju??”
Pyo Ki-gwang shook his head..
“I don't know either.”
One thing was clear: he was definitely trying to kill himself. The sword that had been flying towards him earlier had real life in it and was aimed precisely at the heart. If it wasn't really a non-sign, he would be dead..
“Why did you come to see me??”
“In the process of investigating the case where the Black Satan kidnapped children and handed them over to the Prosecutor's Office, Pyo Danju's name came up. I already heard that you asked Yu Geom-munju to save the children. You said it was to create a secret organization, is that true??”
The notation gwang was embarrassed. He didn't know that Bisain would suddenly come to him and ask him this. In fact, Bisain was attacking head-on without wasting time, just as Geommugeuk said..
“I think the assassin sent me to kill Pyo Danju because I found out about this incident..”
Bisain intentionally emphasized the word murderer. The plan of the sword dance was to make it look like the people who gave him the job were trying to kill Pyo Ki-gwang and get his confession..
“What kind of secret organization are you forming? What's going on without me knowing??”
The sign-gwang said nothing..
He had no suspicion that this attack was planned by the small lord. Because he had no reason to do something like that. And, crucially, the notation fanatic always anticipated this moment..
‘If the secret operation is leaked, they will try to eliminate me. The day has finally come.’
Sacrifice for the greater good. That's why he thought that what was to come had come..
“I know that Danju Pyo is a person who devoted himself to the cause. Also, I am not the type of person who deserves to be treated like this. So please allow me to protect Mr. Pyo Danju..”
Pyo Ki-gwang decided to sacrifice himself for the Apostolic Alliance, so he just lowered his head and made no reply..
“I understand. I'll leave for now. Instead, I will attach one of my subordinates as an escort..”
“Don't sacrifice your subordinates for nothing..”
“If you have such concerns, please tell your subordinate everything..”
Bisain looked back at his subordinate and said.
“Please take good care of Danju Pyo..”
“I will follow your orders.”
The person who received the command and walked forward was Geommugeuk..
It was the moment when I grabbed the tail, not knowing which body it was attached to, and the operation to find that body began..
“I will protect you.”
