Chapter 412
Episode 412 I guess he finally saw it.
“Master!”
Chuma raised his head and looked at the call of the sword dance..
Geommugeuk was relieved when it was confirmed that he was not in a state of madness and anger. If he was sober he wouldn't have done this..
“There's no need to explain it twice anyway, so let's wait..”
Chwima understood Geommugeuk’s words and nodded. On the other hand, the Bingungung warriors surrounding him became even more nervous at the appearance of the sword dance. Some people turned towards the sword dance and stood guard..
They seemed convinced that the person who committed this incident was Chuma..
After a while, Ian arrived there, followed by Han Seol..
The two women were startled. One of the dead was Light, who was in charge of liquor ingredients at the Baekju Snowfield they met. The same person who told me that Wonju had a few drinks with Elder Seo..
The two women looked at each other, and their gazes turned to different people. Hanseol looked at the horse first..
‘Could it be that you killed them??’
In the current situation, it looked like the work of a drunkard..
On the other hand, Ian looked at the sword dance first..
‘What should I do? I think you fell into a trap..’
If the person here with me wasn't a sword dancer, my heart would be pounding like it was going to burst..
But when she saw Geommugeuk’s calm eyes, her excited heart sank like a lie. The eyes look like they will solve any danger in the world. No, it's okay if you can't solve it. Because just being together was enough for me.
How long did I wait like that??
Soldiers carrying shields and spears appeared from all directions and began to blockade the surroundings..
It was Bukpungdae, the elite warrior of the North Sea Ice Palace who only followed the orders of the Ice Palace Lord. Armed with armor and shields, they are made up of people who are more skilled in martial arts than any other elite organization in the Ice Palace, and you can tell how expert they are just by looking at their extraordinary eyes..
The Bukpungdae barricaded the area in all directions, and some Bukpungdae members lined up on the left and right to create a path with shields. Binggungju walked in among them who were in perfect order. Behind her were escort soldiers wearing pure white military uniforms..
Until now, she had only been seen in the palace hall, alone in the ice castle, but her appearance from the outside was completely different..
Binggungju looked at the corpse in silence. Her expression was even colder. It was confirmed that among the dead there were people who did not know martial arts..
Only then did Geommugeuk ask Chwima..
“Chuma, what happened??”
Finally, Chuma opened his mouth..
“That person contacted me and said he had something to talk about and asked to see me..”
The corpse that Chwima was looking at was the lighting where Ian and Hanseol met..
“As I was trying to talk to that person, the vein in my neck suddenly exploded. After hearing the sound, those who came running also exploded..”
Then someone shouted.
“How can I believe what you say??”
The person who arrived next was Seonak. Just a moment ago, he had retreated from the palace hall with an embarrassed expression, but his current mood was different from then..
“You covered your body with blood like that and then made us believe what you said.?”
The visible circumstances were unfavorable to Chwima. Because it was covered in blood, it looked even more like a beast..
At that moment, the sword dance came out..
“So you can trust it.”
As everyone's eyes turned towards him, Geommugeuk calmly asked them:.
“If you really killed them, would you have blood on your body??”
Geommugeuk looked back at Chuma and said.
“Even if it had exploded right in front of me, I could have avoided all the blood if I had wanted to. But there was that much blood on my clothes and hands.…….”
After a brief pause, Geomugeuk spoke..
“I guess he was trying to save them..”
Chu Ma nodded silently. Even if you don't make excuses, Geommugeuk accurately understands the situation..
Geommugeuk said to Binggungju:.
“If Mazon really wanted to kill those people, he would have killed them without anyone knowing. We wouldn't have been surrounded and covered in blood here. You know, right? What kind of people are the Magons of our school?.”
Of course, Binggungju knows it well. If Chuma had made up his mind, all the warriors who initially surrounded him would have already become corpses..
Then Seonak asked excitedly:.
“Then, why are you standing there??”
Geommugeuk’s eyes were still focused on Binggungju..
“He waited as a courtesy to the palace lord. I trust that you will make a wise decision. If you leave this place, the problem will become bigger..”
A faint smile appeared on Chuma’s lips. Yes, this is why you can be calm. As long as there is a sword dance, I won't be easily accused of it..
“We must not easily believe what demons say. Of course, they must be detained until the investigation is completed..”
Geommugeuk refuted Seonak’s resolute argument..
“That's not fair..”
“equity? What does that mean??”
Geommugeuk spoke to the warriors around him..
“I'm sure everyone has heard the rumor that we are investigating the death of Baekhwaseolwon Wonju. While investigating the case, we discovered suspicious circumstances. There was a time when one of the masters of the Ice Palace here secretly asked the deceased Wonju to make Hyangseolbingju..”
For a moment, Seonak’s expression hardened. It's because I didn't know you would say that in this place..
“The master lied to us about that fact. But we did not detain him even though we revealed the facts. Why? It's because I respected the North Sea Ice Palace and the Ice Palace Lord..”
The warriors around looked at each other and exchanged glances..
Seonak could not protest. If I talk too long, I will reveal at this point that the person I was suspicious of was myself..
Geommugeuk’s eyes became cold. I had never been angry since I came to the Ice Palace, but for the first time, I showed my frosty spirit..
“We respect you, but you won't respect us??”
If Binggungju had not been here, he would have uttered his prayers and put more pressure on Seonak. But since it was in front of Binggungju, I showed courtesy..
Hanseol was surprised by the sudden change in the sword dance. What you see now is not a sword dance show with nonsense. That cold appearance actually suited Bingungung very well..
Soon, Binggungju, who had been watching, came out..
“I understand well what Sogyoju said..”
Binggungju looked at the horsemanship and the sword dance for a moment, then gave an order to his subordinates..
“lower your sword.”
The surrounding warriors lowered their swords..
Seonak did not give up until the end..
“My lord, you must not believe what they say..”
“Yes, the cause of death of the dead must be thoroughly investigated..”
Binggungju said to Chu Ma:.
“Do not leave the palace without permission from the main palace..”
I won't confine you, but don't leave without permission either. That was Binggungju’s compromise solution..
Seonak said there.
“We need to have the masters of the main palace keep an eye on them until the results of the investigation come out..”
Binggungju accepted that opinion. Instead, a clue was added for the sword dance..
“Just until the investigation is over..”
Chwima waited for Geommugeuk’s reaction. Because in this case, we had to follow the decision of Geommugeuk. Geomgeuk didn’t say anything. means accepting a compromise.
Chuma readily accepted the offer..
“I guess so..”
When Chuma left there, Ian followed him..
Before leaving, Geommugeuk said to Binggungju:.
“You asked why I was provoking you so much..”
Earlier she asked Geommugeuk. What is the reason that stimulates Seonak so much? Why are you trying to show me his true face?.
Then he answered that it was true that the sword dance was stimulating to him, but that he was not trying to show it to Binggungju himself. Now Geommugeuk has answered that question..
“I guess he finally saw it..”
It meant that there was someone behind it. It is said that the reason he provoked Seonak was to provoke him behind the scenes and bring him out..
“See you later then.”
Geommugeuk, who was about to say hello to Binggungju, looked back at Hanseol and said,.
“What are you doing? I'm not going with you. Didn't we decide to be part of the same group? I'm a member only when things are good.?”
Binggungju and Seonak looked at Hanseol..
Binggungju looked at her daughter without showing any emotion, and Seonak did the opposite..
Seonak shook his head with a firm expression telling him not to follow. She had never disobeyed him until now..
“Let's go together.”
Hanseol walked along with the sword dance..
When the three people left, Seonak looked at Binggungju and said:.
“The Lord of the Little Palace must not be allowed to associate with the Lord of the Demonic Cult..”
At this moment, Binggungju couldn't tell exactly whether his appearance was shameless or whether he truly had feelings for Binggung. Because I spent so many years with him..
Are you betraying all those years? This thought clouded my calm judgment..
“I'll take a good look..”
Binggungju turned around and left there..
As soon as she left, the Bei Fengdae and the guards withdrew from there in an instant..
Seonak said with a sad face to the soldiers who were trying to examine the body..
“Let me be alone for a while.”
Everyone there knew very well how much Seonak cared for the people of Binggung, so they all quietly retreated to make way for him..
Seonak looked down at the corpses alone. Instead of feeling sad or sad, he was lost in other thoughts..
‘he is helping me.’
The moment I was cornered by Hyangseo Bingju, this incident happened..
That was right then..
Rumbling.
Blood began to flow from the pool of blood. The blood flowed to where Seonak’s feet were. Seonak thought it was possible so he stepped aside..
Then, as if alive, the blood turned and headed towards Seonak..
Surprised, Seonak avoided this by moving in the opposite direction..
Then the blood changed direction again and flowed toward Seonak..
Seonak asked while taking a step back..
“It's you?”
The blood that was flowing stopped at Seonak’s question. It was as if I understood what he said..
Seonak said in a trembling voice..
“Thank you for this. Now I will deal with them without making any mistakes..”
As if he understood the words, the blood that had stopped for a moment slowly began to return to the original pool of blood. Surprisingly, no blood stains remained on the floor where the blood had flowed..
The blood returned to its original pool as if absorbed..
Seonak walked slowly and looked down at the puddle of blood. Before I knew it, the blood had returned to normal blood..
I thought that perhaps this incident was not helping me but rather warning me..
His own face was reflected in the blood. It was the solemn face of a man who had made a decision he could no longer go back on..
* * *
“Stop getting angry and drink instead..”
Despite the words of the sword dance, Chwima drank tea..
“It's scarier like this.”
The opponent lured Chuma into a trap. In other words, they lured Mazon into a trap. Chu Ma must have been completely angry, but he was still drinking tea..
Geommugeuk said to Ian.
“I don't know who it is, but I picked the wrong person..”
Ian could also see that Chuma was really angry. What is surprising is the restraint shown. I thought it would be the most exciting out of all Palmazons. He was in better control of himself than any other Magon..
“I guess this is why I was able to become a hobbyist..”
As Ian expressed sincere admiration, Chuma smiled awkwardly. As a person who drinks, I have tried to control myself well, but I am an emotional person. The cool-headedness I came here was possible because of one thing: greed..
The desire to show a cool side to Geommugeuk. I wanted to show that being drunk and throwing yourself into the lake is not everything..
Geommugeuk spoke to the three people.
“Thanks to you, we now know for sure. It is clear that Seonak is clearly connected to the forces behind it..”
Finally, the Blood King began to move. When Seonak was in trouble, he moved immediately. he is not far away.
The person who was surprised by those words was Han Seol..
“The forces behind it??”
“I think someone is collaborating with him and plotting a big conspiracy..”
Unlike Chwima and Ian, who already knew the facts, Hanseol did not know the details..
“Why didn't you tell me in advance??”
Geommugeuk answered her question..
“This seems like a question I should ask the palace lord..”
“Even your mother knows?”
“I think so..”
When he felt Hanseol's expression harden as he felt somewhat left out, Geommugeuk spoke..
“It's not just the palace lord's problem..”
“What does it mean??”
“It means that it is time for Lord Sogung to have a conversation with his mother..”
What I said to Binggungju, I now said to Hanseol. Because I thought that what the two needed was conversation..
“In my relationship with my father, I approached him first. Considering my father, it wasn't an easy task. But if you raised him around our age, wouldn't it be the duty of a child to say things like, "He's grown up this much?"?”
Of course, Han Seol has never thought of such a thing..
“The relationship between the two is both distant and close. It's not a question of cold or warm. The problem is that it has hardened.”
“!”
The words “hardened” touched Hanseol’s heart. I thought that was correct. Now, before I even feel regretful, I think to myself, ‘Because that’s just the way my mother is.’.
Because I had no intention of pulling something far away or changing something cold into warm..
“Why are you telling me these things??”
“It's because I'm so lazy.”
There must be some intention. Hanseol could not guess the intention of the sword dance. He was someone I couldn't help but say was a really strange person..
Ian asked Geommugeuk.
“Why did they frame Mr. Chwima??”
“It was that urgent. In other words, it means that an elder is a necessary person..”
Through this incident, Geommugeuk found out a lot of information about the opponent. Plus, I was planning the next step..
“They tied us up with this.”
Outside the residence, ice palace experts were guarding. It meant that wherever you go, you will be monitored..
“Rather, it worked out well..”
“It went well?”
Not only Ian, but even Chwima and Hanseol looked at the sword dance with expressions as if they were wondering what it meant..
“Conversely, no matter what we do, it's not our fault..”
“ah! Because we're being watched here! But I don’t think it will be easy to sneak away..”
“We're not going out. There's someone out there who can do it for us.”
Geommugeuk looked at one person. Chwima and Ian's gaze followed the sword dance and was directed at one person..
Hanseol shouted at the three people looking at him before he could hear them..
“Would you refuse?!”
