Chapter 235 – 「Muga Uehara」
Deep night.
Joo Yeong-wol, a core member of the Murim Clan and now a Cheonma.
He originally stayed in his own sect, the Ultimate Sect.
It is the best place where the powerful of the Demonic Cult and the Blood Cult gather, and the place where the worst and worst being, the Heavenly Demon, comes.
The ultimate bell, which is said to make even crying children stop, was enveloped in a thick purple fog, adding to the gloom.
Joo Yeongwol, who was looking up at the clear moon, shook his head.
He had the pretty appearance of a woman, but the aura he had was like a life form with form.
After fixing his dark orange hair, he stood up from his throne.
He moved his dark red eyes in all directions. He could see the figures of those who only followed him.
Some are sincere, some are just under pressure, and some are lies.
Each person was under Joo Yeongwol with various intentions.
Joo Yeongwol was not one to notice this intention, but he decided to turn a blind eye.
‘No one can kill me.’
However, it was time to show off his power as the Heavenly Demon. Soon, someone soaked in blood was dragged along with a rope.
The person who knelt in front of Joo Yeongwol was once his colleague.
“Ugh, Joo, Joo Yeongwol…”
“Dokgo Nampung. Now you are the only one left.”
“Why? “Why did you abandon our political faction?”
“You’re asking a stupid question. No, it’s not even worth asking because it’s a question.”
With an infinitely twisted smile on his lips, Joo Yeongwol looked down at Dokgo Nampung.
They once had each other’s backs and fought, but that was now nothing but dark history.
Because now Joo Yeongwol was a heavenly horse.
“Why have you changed so much, you damn friend!”
Dokgo Nampung screamed desperately. Drops of blood were splattering, and my neck was shaking slightly.
Nevertheless, Joo Young-wol did not blink an eye.
“Where is the discipleship… “You know?”
“Why are you looking for her?”
“Knowing.”
“I don’t know.”
A firm answer. How many times has this happened?
I was getting sick of it now.
Jejaryeong, the only woman who shook Joo Yeongwol’s heart. And her skills are also evident
But she was in limbo now. For some reason she couldn’t find her.
“It’s your last chance. “If you just say the word, I’ll let you go in peace.”
“You’re being damned. Dirty traitor bastard. We fought together once…”
Squeak! Puhwaak!
Dokgo Nampung, who was in the middle of speaking, was torn off.
This was what Joo Yeongwol did with just a flick of her finger.
He sat down on the throne again. To him, human life was less important than flies.
The deacon who was watching remonstrated.
“He was the last. So easy… Was it okay to kill him?”
“Huh. Even at this very moment, millions and tens of millions of repair workers will be dying. Just because I added one thing… Will it be a problem?”
“That is not true, Most High.”
“So supreme. Call me Cheonma. The Supreme… Because it’s an expression only dirty and hypocritical political factions would use.”
“Excuse me.”
Joo Youngwol looked up at the moon again. She shined even brighter today.
‘Jejaryeong, still… Do you not know my heart? ‘Why did I become like this?’
She stretches her hand towards the moon. It seems like you can reach her if you stretch out, but she is so far away.
For Joo Yeongwol, Jejaryeong was like that.
She was that kind of woman.
Even though he became a Heavenly Demon, he was drowning in a dream he could never achieve. Maybe without even knowing.
＊＊＊
The next morning.
I made people greet each other. From now on, Jejaryeong is also our harem pot… No, it would be a colleague.
Aki smiled brightly and greeted me.
“Wow, nice to meet you!”
“What?”
Anyway, today’s schedule was important. I asked Aki.
“Aki, what are you going to do today?”
Aki answered carefully, wondering if she had already planned something.
“I’m thinking of looking for my birthplace. Also, there may be a famous hot spring!”
Hot spring is good. I remember having an orgy at a hot spring. Secret Yas also comes to mind.
… Why do only these things come to mind?
As she shook her head, her disciple Ryeong expressed an opinion.
“It just worked out. Then, I will show you the geography of this place and accompany you.”
“Uhuhuu, please!”
We were able to accompany each other naturally. I looked back at Drome, who had been silent.
“Drom, you are the guard. If something happens, you have to step up.”
“I understand, brother. “I will explode the radishes I have accumulated!”
There is no need to explode it. At least it’s not at the level of being lynched.
Then Jejaryeong looked at Drome closely.
“This man is the devil… Is it true?”
“Oh, it’s a goblin. “You could say he is a minor nobleman.”
“Little noble? Incredible. “He looks like a monster, but his level is quite high.”
“This guy has enormous potential.”
“But will it be just you? Lassiu.”
I cleared my throat and turned my head.
Even though I can’t read my state exactly, I can feel it to some extent.
I have a good feeling, this girl.
So, under the guidance of Jejaryeong, I wandered around Bongun.
Jujakcheon, the most famous hot spring, was crowded with people.
Even more than that, I saw the large giraffe Yeojeongru, a tourist attraction where people gather.
Drome tilted his head.
“Brother, what is a stoma?”
“A place to have fun with women.”
When I answered clearly, Drome chuckled.
“Why are you interested?”
“No, I only feel happy about myself becoming stronger. “A woman is a stone, a stone!”
Drome answers with a solemn face. Dude, you’ve completely awakened. Who would think this guy is a goblin?
In fact, sometimes when I see him, I wonder if he is possessed.
Like the butler grandpa from Gale Wars.
Anyway, Aki and Ja-ryeong look at Drome, who is said to look at women like stones, with amazement. People passing by also glanced at her drome and passed by.
Goblins are probably rare here. Still, it was fortunate that no one attacked because they thought it was a mob.
‘That really is like a game.’
A street decorated with yellow ginkgo leaves here and there.
We were having a peaceful time on the street where the sunlight was shining like a blessing. So much so that I wonder if it can be this peaceful.
The next place I went to was a shrine.
I passed the torii, a red pillar that can be considered the entrance to a Japanese shrine.
Jejaryeong explained.
“This is the place where the God of Bungyu has come. “Why don’t you all say a short prayer and leave?”
“Wow, it feels familiar somehow. Really.”
Aki sighed with an expression as if he couldn’t remember.
It must be frustrating. Because I lost my memory. We went to the shrine and prayed while remaining quiet.
I was surprised while praying.
‘You can’t believe you’re doing something you only see in anime or Japanese dramas. Huh, it’s amazing.’
While praying, Drome asked Jejaryeong if he had any questions.
“Are there many places like this in this area?”
“We have many gods in the East. Other than here… There is also a shrine where a fox god comes to visit. It has been managed by the samurai family, Uehara, for generations.”
Uehara? It’s a familiar last name.
It’s Aki’s last name, right?
Both Aki and I were shocked.
“Uehara… ?”
“Hey, can I go there? Please! “I think something comes to mind.”
Jejaryeong looked at me and Aki alternately with her puzzled face.
It seemed like he was just urging me to go to a shrine, not to any other place.
The disciple nodded with her puzzled face.
I left the place and headed to the shrine where the fox god is said to be.
The shrine was on a hill. He walked up the stone stairs.
Climbing up was a task in itself. But more than anything else.
As I climbed up, I was concerned about my reverence and the unknown energy flowing through my whole body.
‘What on earth is this? It’s familiar.’
I felt it somewhere. It didn’t come to mind.
〈Don’t you remember? You felt it in my temple.〉
‘Ah, goddess. So it looks like there is actually a god here too?’
〈Well. You don’t know that. Is there a God, or is there only the remains left behind by God?〉
‘… Yes?’
It was a somewhat meaningful answer. I definitely think there is a God.
The goddess was giving a somewhat gloomy answer.
When I arrived at the shrine, I saw a man sweeping the floor.
He was a gentle-looking man, but he didn’t have a shaman as expected.
‘Did you say Miko? It’s a shame.’
“Nice to meet you, are you travelers? “My name is Ken Uehara, the priest here.”
The priest smiles while introducing himself. Then I made eye contact with Aki.
His eyes grew so big that they seemed to pop out.
“Uh, no, you… Sister Aki?”
“Who are you? “Do you know me?”
Aki cautiously steps forward and asks. The priest explained in confusion.
He told a story.
The sudden disappearance of her older sister, her own situation in which she became a priest while trying to walk the path of repair, and her parents who passed away after suffering from bitter resentment.
“Ahhh… !”
Aki sits down in silent tears. He covered his face with both hands and was in pain.
His parents were already dead. It was something I could never see again.
Then this priest must be your younger brother. If things continued like this, it would be difficult for him to go outside.
Because Aki was sobbing that he was about to collapse. She needs to rest.
“I guess I should rest at this shrine today. Do you have a room?”
“Follow me. Sister, it’s okay. It’s okay now…”
There were guest rooms at the back of the shrine. We decided to stay there.
Grumble, thump!
I went into the room alone and lay down. Aki, how heartbreaking it must be.
Meanwhile, I savored the mysterious energy felt in the forest near the hill. The East was a truly amazing place.
It was just about to become early evening. Someone came into the room.
“Aki? Are you okay now?”
“Rash… Please comfort me a little. “Huh.”
Aki collapses in front of me. I hugged her tightly. She smells body odor.
