Chapter 364
Absolute Regression Episode 364
Episode 364 This is the first lie.
Two people were walking down the hallway.
The person who took the lead was Ingung, the head of the guard, followed by the sword dance..
When they almost reached the main hall, Geommugeuk stopped for a moment and looked up at the steel wolf..
“This is the famous wolf of the Sado League. They say that in times of emergency, this wolf comes to life and stops intruders. It really is.?”
Ingung gave no answer to Geommugeuk’s question. He did not say a single word while guiding the sword dance. I'm someone who doesn't usually show myself like this, but today was a special occasion..
“Wolf, if you come back alive later, don't bite me..”
Then, Geommugeuk put his hand into the wolf’s mouth..
Then suddenly.
“Ahhhhh!”
Geommugeuk screamed in pain..
Despite the realistic acting, Ingung just stared at the sword dance in silence..
Geommugeuk licked his lips and took his hand out of the wolf's mouth..
“Since you didn't say anything, I tried to make a joke..”
With a blunt expression, Ingung took another step, and Geomgeuk walked behind her. What he felt inside the wolf's mouth was a strange energy that only an expert of his level could feel..
The large door opened and the two entered the main hall..
Ingung naturally stepped back from the sword dance and disappeared before we knew it. It was a high-level stealth technique that could only be seen from Hwi, his father's bodyguard..
In the distance, Baek Ja-gang, the leader of the Apostles, was sitting at Taesa Temple..
Geommugeuk said as he walked towards him..
“There is a red carpet spread on this road here in our school’s Gyojujeon Hall. Everyone calls that carpet the bloody road. I don't know the exact reason, whether it's because the road to becoming a Heavenly Demon is so difficult or because so many lives and deaths are in the hands of those who walk on that carpet..”
Then Baekjagang answered from afar..
“Have you looked under the carpet??”
“no.”
“There's probably a hidden engine system underneath that even experts can't avoid..”
Then Geommugeuk stopped walking, squatted down, and looked closely at the floor..
“It's here too!”
The floor was full of small holes where poisonous needles were released. If poisonous needles were released all at once from this hole, it would not be easy for any expert to survive. It is a poison that protects the battle, but how can it be a poison that can be solved with just a sip??
“It's more trustworthy than people..”
Yes, it would be even weirder if the Apostle Lord believed in people..
“When I get back, I'll definitely lift up the carpet..”
Geommugeuk got up again and started walking..
So we arrived at the Taesa and greeted him politely..
“I never thought I would enter the Battle of the Apostle Alliance..”
“Same goes for me. I never thought I'd meet you here.”
“I think the lords are the coolest when they are in the royal palace..”
He acted comfortably as if he had entered the main temple of the Heavenly Demon Church..
“Are you scared of me??”
“It's scary. I am the scariest after my father..”
“But why do you act like you’re not scared??”
“In my experience, people I found scary didn't actually harm me. Everyone who tried to harm me was smiling with a good face..”
Baek Ja-gang smiled proudly. His eyes were curved like a crescent moon. It's a short crescent moon.
“Did you laugh like this??”
“So I feel safer.”
“why?”
“Because you're smiling, I'm more scared of you..”
How can you overcome sword dance with words??
‘Geom Woo-jin, how could such a son be born to such a quiet man??’
After saying hello, Geomugeuk asked with a serious expression..
“Who did Hyuksagun point out??”
“I pointed out the person who follows me the most..”
The betrayal of the extreme military leader Buncheon was a bigger shock than hearing that Bisain had been deceived by Geommugeuk..
“There's even evidence that you guys were planning this behind the scenes. Still, why should I trust you??”
“Don't trust me, trust me.”
Geommugeuk relayed Bisain’s words to the leader..
“I will live as you said. My eyes were swollen, probably because I cried a lot after hearing what Maengju said. Because his face and eyes are swollen. I suppressed the urge to make fun of me for being ugly..”
Baek Ja-gang said while staring straight into Geommugeuk’s eyes..
“I believe in Saine. I don't trust you.”
“If I had been plotting to take over the Apostolic League, I would not have planned one of the many schemes to achieve something by dividing the priests..”
“The reason is?”
There could be many reasons, but the reason for sword dance was the most emotional one..
“It's so unfashionable.”
I expected there might be a strange answer, but is it because it's not cool? One corner of Baekjagang’s mouth curled up..
The words of the sword dance continued..
“If it were me, I would have sent him to a duel. In the field where he called me, I would have asked him to fight like a warrior. Whoever wins gets to eat this Murim! This is my way. So, I don’t have dreams like Moorim Unity. It's a dream that can never be achieved with such a naive heart..”
After a moment, Baekjagang asked:.
“So isn’t it a dream that can come true??”
I saw the sword dance. In a split second, I saw some heat rising from Baekjagang’s small eyes..
He also has similar thoughts. He was that kind of man who wanted to fight in a fight and the winner would take it all..
“I thought Lord Maeng looked at Moorim very coldly and realistically, but he also had this emotional side..”
Baekjagang made no reply. Actually, it was something I had never thought about. Because no one dared to talk about his duality..
“If that's the case, Maengju, please wake up from your dream.!”
A scathing voice burst out of Baekjagang’s mouth..
“this guy!”
Baekjagang’s cry rang loudly..
“How dare you say something in the battle of my lord?!”
Although he seemed angry on the outside, Baek Ja-gang was not angry at all. When will we ever be told to wake up from our dreams? It has never happened before, and it never will again..
“I made a mistake! please forgive me.”
What was more interesting was the look in the eyes of the apologetic yet relaxed sword dance. Just as I wasn't really angry, I wasn't really apologizing either..
He was reading his own mind correctly. It's only our second time meeting, but it's like we've known each other for a long time..
“This is probably why it is difficult to believe what I say. Did someone really try to swallow up the Sadomaeng? By pushing out the entire military? That's right?”
Now, a piece of the sword dance performance that I had been saving for has come out..
“Do you know what? Similar things happened to our church, the Murim League, and even the Sae-o-Pungcheon Church..”
Baek Ja-gang, who had maintained his composure, suddenly stood up from Taesa Temple. This time I couldn't hide my surprise. What does this mean again? The emotion was revealed on Baek Ja-gang’s face..
“There was such a dark force. An organization that is simultaneously plotting against the entire martial arts world..”
To Baek Ja-gang, who couldn't believe it, the sword dance drama showed him what the bigger problem was..
“Lord Maeng’s problem is not the fact that such a dark force exists..”
“So what's the problem??”
“The bigger problem is that Master Maeng has not received any information regarding it. Why didn't Hyuksagun report to the leader??”
“!”
“There will be three stories reported, so you will definitely be able to check the details. If they have shown meticulousness in eliminating all of the reported officials and subordinate soldiers, please secretly seek cooperation from our school and the Murim Alliance. We will definitely inform you of the facts officially..”
If that incident turns out to be true, it would be indispensable evidence that Hyuksagun was behind this incident. The fact that the military did not convey such an important matter was a serious crime in itself..
Baek Ja-gang immediately called In-gung, the head of the guard, and gave him an instruction by voice. After receiving the instructions, Ingung disappeared in an instant. The Apostle Lord did not hesitate for a moment while carrying out the work..
After hearing Geommugeuk's words, he ordered an investigation, but that didn't mean he completely believed in Geommugeuk yet. This was something that would determine not only his fate but also the fate of the Sado League..
“If what you say is right, if the head is Hyuksagun, the body is someone else.?”
“This is Hwang Seok-gyeong, instructor of the Saemaenggwan..”
Baek Ja-gang knows who Hwang Seok-kyung is. Knowing the name of an instructor means that he or she is performing his or her duties well..
“Then why didn't you say that when we first met??”
Because it was a problem that had to be solved one by one..
“He is a very dangerous man. I thought it was right to let you know when the time was right and not to touch it hastily..”
“Now is the time?”
“At least for now you are giving me your doubts..”
The gazes of two people intertwined in the air..
“This is why I have no choice but to doubt you..”
“This is why you have to trust me. Would I have done something to make a mark??”
Although it was only their second meeting, Baek Ja-gang agreed with Geommugeuk’s words. I thought it would have been more detailed if it had been a sword dance..
“Soldier Hyuk will be arriving soon..”
It was finally time for the three-way meeting. Just because the two people didn't wait here in the first place, it could be guessed that Baek Ja-gang had a lot of faith in Bisain..
“ah! I also want to call my soldiers! I may seem smart because I speak well, but I'm also closer to this side..”
While doing so, he tapped the black magic sword on his waist..
I thought Baekjagang was a useless joke, but the sword dance performance really reminded me of Gowol. Now I had to win the argument against the vice military of the Apostolic Alliance..
After a while, Hyuksagun came in there..
Hyuksagun calmly walked in, bowed to Baekjagang, and then greeted Geommugeuk first..
“This is Hyuksa-gun, who is in charge of the vice military..”
“It's a sword dance from Shingyo..”
Hyuksagun looked closely at the sword dance, but it was impossible to find out anything about the sword dance that had reached a half-turned appearance..
“I've heard a lot of rumors that So Jyoju's talent is outstanding..”
“Rumors are exaggerated..”
“That doesn't seem to be the case. Even after plotting such a thing, you have the guts to come to the main team like this..”
“That I was planning something?”
“You did not deceive the Little Lord.?”
Geommugeuk smiled and nodded..
“I admit it. Because he’s a person I really like.”
“So, you admit that Protestantism was behind this incident??”
“What if it's me, what if it's not me? However, if that were the case, it wouldn't be too unfair for the small lord who barely passed the risk of death.?”
“I know that the attack on the safe house was also a play of their own making..”
“If, as you said, me and Lord Xiao had joined hands, then why would we have done such a thing? They must have been quietly targeting the person over there..”
“You tell me. Why did you do that??”
Baek Ja-gang sat in the middle like a referee and watched the two men argue..
“There is clear evidence of your involvement..”
“I have proof too..”
“What evidence??”
“The clear evidence you mentioned is my evidence..”
“What on earth does that mean??”
“If we had planned it, there would be no such clear evidence..”
Hyuksagun snorted..
“Do you think such a ridiculous argument will work? You too, provide evidence..”
“Okay, I'll give you evidence..”
At those words, Hyuksagun became nervous. Is there really any evidence??
After heightening the tension to the fullest, Geomugeuk blurted out:.
“I saw it.”
“What?”
“I saw you making things up..”
Hyuksa-gun was deeply surprised because he did not know that Geommugeuk would point to him..
“Now you're blaming me?”
“I'm not putting blame on you, I'm just saying I saw you planning this..”
Hyuksagun smiled and looked at Baekjagang and said..
“As you can see, Sogyoju is being unreasonable..”
At that time, the sword dance caught him off guard..
“Why don't you ask? Under normal circumstances, shouldn't you ask when did you see him planning something? Don’t innocent people usually ask that first? Maybe you already knew what was going on so you skipped it.?”
Hyuksagun had a moment of regret. I had to do it like the sword dance said, but I was in a hurry..
“Because it's not worth talking about.”
Baek Ja-gang, who was watching, spoke softly..
“Your testimony cannot be evidence..”
When Baekjagang took his side, Hyuksagun smiled lightly in triumph. Since there is clear evidence, Baek Ja-gang will eventually have no choice but to believe him. The more this Demonic Cult leader demonstrates his flashy speaking skills, the more suspicious he will be..
“Just go back now. The reason I am keeping you alive now is because it is the leader of the small religion. If you go any further than this, even your title as the leader of a Protestant church will no longer be able to protect you..”
“Okay, I'll go..”
I wondered why you gave up so easily..
“No matter when I go, I will meet the person who is coming..”
“Who decided to come??”
Then, amazing words flowed from Geommugeuk’s mouth..
“Our school’s Demon Doctor and Poison King are coming..”
Hyuksagun was shocked. Ma Yi was a person known to be more advanced in medical skills than the Sinui of the Sado Maeng or the Murim Maeng. And even the poison king?
“They say that your generals withdrew due to old age, but I think they got sick from poison. The Poison King and the Demon Doctor will confirm that..”
“!”
At this moment, Hyuksagun was also shaken. It struck me in an area I had never thought of..
“Those two are on your side. How can you trust them??”
“Of course, he is from our school. But they are people who value their own honor more than anyone else..”
“I might lie if I received orders from the cult leader..”
“That's for the leader to decide..”
The eyes of the two people turned towards the Baekja River..
The person who was most surprised at this place was not Hyuk Sa-gun, but Baek Ja-gang..
When Geommugeuk told him that the Poison King and the Demon Doctor were coming, goosebumps rose in his ears. He discovered the lie of Geommugeuk..
It turns out that Geommugeuk is a person who understands his senses. Now I can guess why he lied. I guess it's to keep the Hyuksa army at bay with Demon King and Poison King..
What shocked Baek Ja-gang was the fact that this was his first lie. That means?
―I consider So Mengju a true friend. I hope that friend safely inherits the position of leader..
―It will wake my father too. Please have a different dream.
―Our martial arts group will not fight or hate each other. I'm going to play with the small fish at the beach..
―There is a regular restaurant in front of our school. Next time I get a chance, I would like to invite you..
The words Geommugeuk said passed through his mind..
‘Everything I said so far was sincere.?’
