Absolute Regression Episode 354
Episode 354 If you leave it alone, it will die.
When Bisain returned, his servant Sahon approached Tuwang with a cart..
“We will move your luggage.”
As Sahon loaded the cart with gifts from the warriors, Tuwang also sat on it..
As they left the training ground, the conversation between the two began..
―Did the Little Lord notice it as expected??
Tuwang nodded slightly. This was already expected when the assassins failed to kill the flag bearer..
―Then why did you come here??
―Declaration of war. I also want to brag. The spray you sent doesn't work..
―You're still young.
A sneer appeared on the corner of Sahon’s mouth. On the other hand, doubts remained in Tuwang’s mind..
―It's definitely different than before.
I couldn't figure out exactly what it was..
―Did you find out how you survived today's ambush??
Tuwang shook his head in response to Sahon’s question..
―Is the leader helping??
―It's not a leader. If the leader had intervened, things wouldn't have been handled this way..
―In that case, Xiao Maengju will definitely ask Goeak and Gwangseom for help..
Monsters and flashes of light. They belong to the Seven Great Masters of Sado, and are masters who were brought in by Bisain to show off his power when the Jeongsama met together in the past..
―I guess so.
―Give it time and we will be at a disadvantage. Before I meet them, I will lead my men and deal with them myself..
―There's no need for that..
Tuwang lay down among the luggage on the cart and said something incomprehensible..
―If you leave it alone, the small lord will die..
* * *
Bisain, who came down from the cliff, sent a message straight down the road and hired a coachman and carriage. In order to avoid attention, he left the Apostles and Thirty-Four and headed to his destination alone with Geommugeuk..
Bisain was silently looking at the scenery outside..
He calmed himself down before the big fight that was coming. I risked death, it was more dangerous than any fight I've ever been in..
Of course, I also had a desire to avoid it. Because somewhere in my heart, I was constantly whispering to run to the Apostle Lord..
―Have you already forgotten? You regretted the decision you made earlier when you were angry, right? It's still the same now. In the future, you will regret this choice. Go now and inform the leader and resolve this matter..
Bisain looked at the sword dance with complicated feelings..
Geommugeuk stayed still with his eyes closed as always..
At that time, Geomugeuk blurted out.
“I'm regretting it again?”
“You seem to have eyes on the back of your head and eyes on your eyelids..”
“So, you’re like a monster, right? Just tell me you see it with your heart..”
Geommugeuk slowly opened his eyes..
“When I ride a carriage, it feels like I'm reciting something with my eyes closed. What are you practicing??”
“I practice the Heavenly Demon Tiger God technique..”
Bisain was inwardly taken aback as he had not expected that the Cheonma's German martial arts would be mentioned..
“Is it okay to tell you that secret??”
“What do you think? It's not like I'm telling you the martial arts skills, so why not just tell me the name of the martial artist?.”
There is a level that cannot be imitated no matter how much you learn with words. In the end, one word came out without me realizing it..
“I lost.”
“I think it's okay to admit that..”
“so? I want you to drag me down?”
“What do you think? While being dragged around, you can see stars, birds, and clouds. The person you are dragging may be proud and show off at first, but over time, it will be difficult for that person as well. I wonder if someone won't pull me along.”
Bisain looked like he really couldn't stop it..
“You can say things like that even though you have never lost to an opponent..”
“You know my father, right? It's all read anyway, so I'm not trying to hide it from my father. Ugh, you should see my dad laughing at me..”
I couldn't believe that there was someone who was on the defensive in a sword dance like this. Well, I thought it might be possible since he is the father of this sword dance..
“Who is your father??”
“You probably have more information than I do..”
Bisain smiled slightly at the half-joking, half-serious remark..
“I'll greet you next time. See for yourself and judge for yourself..”
Will the day come when I can say hello to the Heavenly Demon??
“It gets serious again. The minor leader of the Sadomaeng is not greeting the Heavenly Demon. Saying hello to my friend's father.”
friends father.
It is a word as unfamiliar as a friend in one's life..
“But why don't you ask who I'm going to meet??”
Because you already know that. Geommugeuk guessed who Bisain was going to ask for help..
“Which of the two of you are you going to meet first??”
Bisain shook his head..
“Do you know what? When you look at things like this, you really have no humanity..”
I said I was sorry. I wondered if a person without humanity would help me..
“Let me ask you one more thing.”
“Please tell me.”
“Consider being Goe-senpai or Gwang-senpai not enough.?”
When I saw Instructor Hwang, his skills seemed like those of a private instructor..
In other words, it means the ability to overwhelm oneself..
Geommugeuk gave an honest answer..
“What if two people work together? If you fight alone, you have absolutely no chance of winning..”
Although he had expected it to some extent, Bisain could not help but be surprised. The two masters of the Seven Great Apostles are opponents who should work together..
More surprising words were added there.
“If the two don't fit together, it will be difficult..”
* * *
The carriage has arrived at the agreed upon location..
“Little Lord, welcome back..”
“Thank you so much for your precious step..”
“Gwangseom is waiting inside. Come on, let's go in..”
Among the Seven Great Masters of Apostle, they were two people who had a close relationship with Sado Maeng. To be exact, they were followers of the Apostle Lord..
The monster glanced at me and confirmed that it was only one attendant..
“You came quietly.”
I've encountered sword dance before, but I don't recognize it right now..
The sword dancer was wearing a mask and lowered his head to avoid eye contact. Moreover, only the prayers of the Thirteen Apostles were revealed..
Because he had no idea that the Demonic Cult's minor leader would become one of the Four Apostles and protect the Bisain, the monster did not notice the sword dance performance..
Geomgeuk also entered the room. The Four Thirteen Langs always moved together with the Little Lord, so they didn't mind at all..
A table was set up in the room, and Gwangseom was waiting..
“Senior, thank you for coming..”
Since Gwangseom usually doesn't say anything, he just slightly bowed his head in greeting..
Bisain sat down at the drinking table and sent a message to Geommugeuk..
―I will identify myself and sit with you.?
―It's okay. I'll be here.
The sword dance performance was performed at a distance behind the bisain..
“I was waiting and having a drink first. Now, please have a glass of Somaengju too..”
We had a drink and had some light conversation. From your past well-being, to the Sado leader, and to various recent events in the martial arts world..
Then, Gwangseom gave alcohol to Geommugeuk. Geommugeuk turned his head and drank under his mask..
Bisain was secretly impressed..
‘So Kyo-ju is skilled enough to hide his existence even in front of them..’
After a few drinks, the real story began..
“Yes, why did the Little Lord ask to see us??”
“I have something to ask of you two seniors..”
Bisain was cautious..
Even though he is currently treating himself with a good face, he was an absolute master who was notorious in martial arts for his eccentric and cruel personality..
Gwangseom also had a quiet personality, so he felt less evil, but his sword was faster than a horse..
The fact that they show courtesy to themselves is courtesy to the Apostle Lord. Bisain had not yet built personal relationships and trust with them..
“This time, we discovered some kind of dark force threatening our alliance..”
At those words, the eyes of Goeak and Gwangseom became more intense..
“who are they?”
“The leader is Hwang Seok-gyeong, an instructor at Sa-Maeng-gwan..”
When Hwang Seok-kyung's name was revealed, the two people looked bewildered. He seemed more surprised by the fact that he was Hwang Seok-kyung than when he said that there was a secret force threatening the Sado-maeng..
“If you knew who the other person was, you could just get rid of them. Why did you ask to meet us??”
“He's hiding his skills.”
“To the extent that we need it??”
“Yes, you both need to go..”
There was silence for a moment. Bisain did not hide his opponent’s skills and conveyed them. I didn't make the foolish mistake of lowering Hwang Seok-kyung's skills just to save face..
The monster asked with half-confidence..
“Do you know too, Maengju??”
“You don't know yet.”
“Why didn't you tell me??”
Now was important for persuasion..
“He got involved with me in the first place and even tried to kill me..”
“They tried to assassinate you.?”
“Yes. So I want to end this interest with my own hands..”
The monster stared at Bisain..
“I want to handle this matter well and be recognized by the leader..”
Bisain answered this honestly as well..
“yes.”
The monster looked back at Gwangseom. Gwangseom just drank in silence..
The monster didn't obediently come forward to help..
“If what you're saying is true, it's pretty dangerous and that's why we need to help.?”
He did not say that it would be an opportunity to make a great contribution to the Apostolic Alliance or that it would be a favor to the next Apostolic Alliance leader. The instructor didn't even say that he dreamed of becoming a leader..
“I won't repeat it for no reason. If I become the leader, I will give you both what you want..”
“Do you know what I want?”
“On the day I ascend to the rank of leader, I will give you the level of the Slashing Demonic Treasure included in my notes..”
A radiance flowed from the eyes of the monster..
The Slashing Demon's Revenge was the level of evil that the monster desperately wanted. When paired with his German martial art, Slashing Iron Man, it produces a much stronger effect, but unfortunately, he was unable to learn Slashing Sword Art..
The reason I have done so many things for the Apostle Lord was to obtain the Slashing Return Treasure..
It was a promise like a double-edged sword. If you accept this condition, he will help you in both material and spiritual ways, hoping to ascend to the rank of Lord of the Apostles as soon as possible..
Instead, you will no longer be able to use him after giving him special pay..
“Is there a guarantee that promises will be kept??”
“If you want, I can write it down in writing..”
Only then did the monster nod its head..
“Good, I'll accept it on those terms..”
Visan looked at Gwangseom this time..
“I don't even know what you want. Please tell us what you want.”
Then Gwangseom finally opened his mouth..
“I want your life.”
For a moment there was silence there..
Immediately afterwards, the monster laughed and said,.
“You have to be sparing with your words for jokes like this to work..”
Bisain also laughed along..
But Gwangseom did not laugh. Words that I normally wouldn't say came out all at once..
“Earlier, when you went out to greet the Little Lord, you added mountain gong poison to your drink. They said it was specially made by improving Heukbi, but you didn't even notice. Unless you're a Mandok Immortal, you won't be able to use your internal energy for the next half hour. Of course, I took the medication beforehand..”
At that moment, the monster looked at his inner strength. His expression turned cold. The inner strength was really scattered..
“Why are you doing this? Why are you playing such a mischievous joke??”
Instead of answering, Gwangseom continued what he was saying..
“You will be the one who killed Little Lord here today. He will be treated as if he disappeared from the martial arts forest after killing Somaengju. A large amount of money will be deposited into your battlefield, and circumstantial evidence of receiving a contract to kill a minor lord will also be discovered..”
From the perspective of a monster, Gwangseom said words that were truly horrendous without even batting an eye..
“This crazy guy! Are you so excited that you want to win? Do you think that just because you don't have the strength to do it, you'll be defeated??”
Contrary to his confidence, he was in despair. Fighting a light beam with no strength? It was a fight between a warrior and a child..
“I'm sorry for using acid poison. I haven't underestimated your skills, so don't be too angry. I will bury your body in a sunny place..”
Bisain was equally surprised and embarrassed. Even though he had the strength, he was an opponent he couldn't handle, but the problem was that Geommugeuk also drank alcohol..
Now that I think about it, the person who gave alcohol to Geommugeuk was Gwangseom. I should have been suspicious when that silent person gave alcohol to his subordinate..
“I joined hands with Hwang Seok-kyung.?”
There was no answer from Gwangseom, but it was an affirming silence..
“Why did you join hands with him??”
Gwangseom looked out the window for a moment and said softly:.
“I fought with him and lost. I promised to become your subordinate if you lose..”
I felt respect from the word “him.”.
Bisain was able to see that Hwang Seok-kyung was a really strong person, just as Geommugeuk said. It may not be just because of the promise. It seems like he was truly fascinated by Hwang Seok-kyung's strength and became his subordinate..
At that time, Geommugeuk, who was standing behind and watching all of this, finally opened his mouth..
“Isn’t the human mind truly unpredictable? Of the two, I expected the traitor to be a monster..”
Everyone's eyes turned to him at Geomugeuk's words. When he suddenly appeared, not only the monster but also Gwangseom looked puzzled. The conversation between the two was not a conversation between a leader and a subordinate..
“I sure expected this situation.?”
“Hwang Seok-kyung must have expected you to go meet them. But it didn't stop me. Two of the Seven Great Masters of the Apostles could be enemies, but you don't stop them? Isn't there something suspicious??”
After listening to Bisain, I thought so. Why doesn't this thought come to mind then??
“Then why weren't you prepared??”
“What kind of contrast??”
“I shouldn't have been drinking.”
“How can you not eat when your eyes are blue and you want to eat? Should I spit it out in front of that person??”
Easy profit!
Gwangseom’s swift sword split the air..
Tuk.
The mask cut by the sword fell off. Because he knew that he was not trying to kill himself, he did not avoid the sword dance. In fact, rather than dodging his sword, reading the opponent's intention accurately and not dodging required greater courage and skill..
Geommugeuk exposed his face and spoke while touching his chin and mouth..
“Even so, it was difficult because the mask was uncomfortable, so thank you for cutting it out. I really need to change the inner fabric of this..”
