Chapter 46 – Dayoon Nam (7)
“…”
I looked around. The surroundings looked at the ‘things’ that were black golems resembling Dol hareubangs a little while ago. My surroundings were strewn with black stone fragments.
“Shush. Shushuk.”
“Poetry. Shiva.”
Before the dol hareubangs could say anything in their own language, the silvery shining swords rushed in. In what could be called an instant, the stone statue was shattered into dozens of pieces.
Did you walk for about 30 minutes like that?
Dayoon Nam and I were able to reach the depths.
After passing the end of the passage, a huge cavity came out. Half of the cavity had a black lake submerged in water, a lake with a strange feeling of undulating shadows.
Gooo-.
And over the lake, something in the form of a huge snake, made up of shadows, was looking at us with red eyes.
“You’re much stronger than the Thunder Lord I saw last time…?”
“Iknow, right.”
“Then the reward would be better.
Nam Dayun muttered that and retrieved the swords. As the demonic sword settled in her hand, the demonic sword’s alter egos began to disappear one by one.
“When I first taught Siwoo, you said that it was difficult to teach you because my swordsmanship was tailored to my own characteristics, right?”
Nam Da-yoon said that and stretched out his hand. According to her will, dozens of swords began pouring out of subspace.
There were things called demonic swords, and there were also things called famous swords or divine swords. There was also a spirit sword containing the ego of a spirit and a holy sword that emits holy light.
“The sword I use was originally created by combining witchcraft and swordsmanship.”
Dayoon Nam reached out and grabbed one of the swords.
The sword had an unusual shape. The golden intaglio was written in Chinese characters on the blade, and it looked like it was well maintained, but the blade was sparsely chipped. Dayoon Nam looked at the sword as if it were precious and muttered quietly.
“Cheondun sword method.”
A silver glow radiated from dozens of swords. For an instant, a radiance that made it hard to open my eyes covered all directions.
Dozens of swords split. In one sack, two sack. From two sacks to three. The split swords joined one by one, and eventually, a giant sword that was bigger than a snake in the form of a shadow was completed.
Around the giant sword, dozens of swords were floating around like satellites, as if escorting it.
Jema
The giant sword fell.
***
Cheondun Sword.
It is a sword technique used by Lu Dongbin, one of the Eight Immortals in the Taoist legend of China.
Although it is called swordsmanship, Cheondun Swordsmanship is a swordsmanship, but it is not a swordsmanship.
This is because Cheondun Geombeop is a kind of law mixed with witchcraft. In order to master it, you need to have excellent shamanistic and swordsmanship skills, but Nam Da-yoon learned the Cheondun sword with his unique characteristic of fish sword.
This is the reason why Dayun Nam often visits China when he goes abroad from time to time. Because China is full of devils, beasts, and monsters.
I remembered the efficacy of the Cheondun Sword.
It gives additional damage to beings belonging to demons, and also gives additional damage when hunting dragons.
「Crown la la la!」
He howled as he watched the snake slash his sword.
I thought about whether a snake could howl for a while, but since that’s a kind of monster, there’s nothing wrong with it.
The snake made of shadow twists its body here and there, but it cannot move. In Cheondungeombeop, Jema has the power to suppress demons. It is a combination of a type of bind ability and a special move. Monsters and beasts belonging to demons cannot avoid that skill.
In the first place, there are very few monsters that would be able to hit me with a sword like that.
The giant sword pierced the snake’s body made of shadows. As if that was a signal, dozens of swords began to pierce like falling meteors. Fire broke out all over the snake’s body, some parts froze, and some parts crackled with lightning and began to bounce in all directions.
Thud.
And then, the snake made of shadows lost its power and fell to the ground. Like a snake evaporating into thin air, it began to disappear. The same was true of the lake rippling with shadows.
It is because it is a kind of spiritual body.
“It wasn’t a bad opponent.”
“Dayun’s sister is amazing. I don’t think I can last even a minute against that snake.”
“Keuheum. It’s thanks to Siwoo’s support.”
I didn’t do anything.
We headed to the spot where what was supposed to be a snake was. He picked up a black magic stone.
I saw the place where the lakeside made of shadows used to be.
There was something in the form of an altar of sorts, and ten chests were visible above it.
Dayoon Nam and I moved to the altar.
Dayoon Nam opened the box small enough to fit in his pocket. There, I saw a black inner hem piled with silk. Even just looking at it, I feel a strange magical power dwelling in it.
Emotion.
[Young Ghost’s Secret]
An inner layer in which the power of a spirit is condensed.
-When taken, stats increase slightly, magic power increases, stamina increases, potential unlocks.
-Increases resistance and dominance among Dark and Water attributes when taken
-When taken, gives Strain (A) characteristics
“In addition to increasing physical strength, it increases the resistance and dominance of dark and water attributes… That, it also gives characteristics.”
“Can Siwoo do emotions?”
“Yes, to some extent…”
“What are the characteristics?”
Nam Da-yoon asked. I was taken aback by the reaction.
“…Switches.”
“Yes?”
Dayoon Nam paused for a moment.
“Byeon, Gangsoe? If it’s Byeongangsoe, that’s how your stamina gets stronger, right?”
“Yes. It will make your stamina stronger.”
Nam Da-yoon’s eyes twinkled at my words. The corners of his mouth lifted slightly, and he seemed to have a sinister expression.
“So, then, will Siwoo have this?”
“I haven’t done anything?”
“This dungeon was discovered by Siu, so there is some stake in it.”
It would be a pity to specify more here. In fact, this was also the reason I attacked this dungeon.
“Then I’ll be grateful.”
I thanked Dayoon Nam and put it in his pocket.
Dayoon Nam continued to open the box. When I opened the long box, I saw a pair of swords.
As if forming a Taegeuk, a white sword and a black sword caught my eye. If it’s unusual, it’s hard as a stone.
[Soy sauce, Makya]
It is a couple sword that has been sealed for some reason.
“This…”
Dayoon Nam stopped when he saw the pair of swords. She’s sealed and doesn’t feel any power, but she’s a swordsman. Perhaps she sensed something peculiar.
“It doesn’t look like anything special. But since there seems to be something out there, would you like Siwoo to take it?”
… Come to think of it, Dayoon Nam had a bit of an idiot.
But there was nothing bad about getting it.
“Oh, isn’t it hard to carry? My sister will put it in the subspace.”
She nodded her head at her words, and Nam Da-yoon put her twin swords into the space.
A kaleidoscope of multi-colored jewels was visible. It was the size of my fist.
[Spirit Stone]
The natural power that the spirits would like is concentrated.
“Will Siwoo have this too?”
“No, what I’ve received so far is enough.”
“Really? My sister doesn’t really need this either…”
Then Da-yoon Nam nodded his head while wondering if he thought of something, there was that, and put the spirit stone into the space. All other chests were made of gold, silver and jewels.
Dayoon Nam put all of them in a subspace.
And we headed home.
***
Using the warp gate, we arrived in the blink of an eye.
On the way to Dayoon Nam’s house in a car parked near the warp gate, I saw two prominent people in front of her house.
I saw a young woman wearing a cheongsam embroidered with plum blossoms on a white background that showed off her slender legs, and a boy with braided hair wearing an old Chinese costume.
It was Xiao Mei and Tao.
Oh, come to think of it, those guys were there too.
“Ah.”
Nam Da-yoon also had an expression of regret as if she had realized it.
Dayun Nam parked her car, opened her door, and Xiao Mei and Tao respectfully bowed her head.
“I’m sorry, I went out for a while. Did you wait a long time?”
At Dayoon Nam’s words, Xiaomei felt relieved. Well, yesterday’s Nam Dayun was very sharp because of her frustration.
“No. I just arrived.”
At Xiao Mei’s words, Dayoon Nam smiled bitterly and looked at me for a moment.
“Why don’t we talk here? Shall we talk at home?”
“At home?”
Tao was shocked at Dayoon Nam’s words.
“Why don’t you like it?”
“No, I think it was because he was surprised. Tao was a fan of Sword Master.”
“Yeah? Thank you.”
Come to think of it, I should have gotten Eun Soo-ah’s autograph. I opened the car door and got out.
“…You?”
Thao looked at me startled. Xiaomei’s expression was also confused. I smiled awkwardly and waved my hand.
“Siwoo, do you know each other?”
“We ran into each other by chance when my sister came home.”
It wasn’t a very pleasant meeting, but…
Somewhere in the world with Xiaomei.
“Are you Black Hand Xiaomei?”
“Yes, yes. I didn’t know yesterday, but are you Siwoo Lee, who is currently attending Hero Academy?”
“Yes. It’s Siwoo who is famous for being smart.”
At my words, Xiao Me covered her mouth and laughed.
“Shall we talk inside?”
“Yes, thank you for the hospitality. Thank you so much for being invited as a special guest in a humble place.”
At Dayoon Nam’s words, Tao responded. In an instant, the atmosphere became tense.
Xiaomei’s face turned pale, and Dayoon Nam was making a strange expression. Thao tilted her head.
“Sorry, sorry! Tao is still not good at Korean!”
Xiao Mei lowered her head. She pressed her hand against Thao’s head. Tao also seemed to have realized something and quietly lowered his head and said, “I’m sorry, I’m sorry.” After a commotion, I entered Dayoon Nam’s living room.
“Here is the meeting of the Heavenly Fathers…”
Jecheonhoe. Although it is called the Jecheonhoe, it is a Chinese organization to prevent evil or demons. At first, it was the Moorim League, but it was the Jecheonhoe that gathered the strong after being destroyed once by the Demonic Cult, which was a group of Chinese demons.
Tao looked at the table with a thrilled expression on his face. Come to think of it, Dayoon Nam was also part of the Jecheonhoe.
Tao opened his mouth and muttered, and Xiao-Mei turned around and glared at him. Tao made a prickly expression.
“Then I’ll make some tea. Anyone want something to eat?”
“I’ll have green tea, please. Thao, please do the same.”
Xiao-Mei was afraid that Tao would make another mistake, so he quickly went to Tao’s car.
“I’ll ask for herbal tea.”
The atmosphere was uncomfortable, so I got out of the car and ran away. As I headed towards the kitchen, I could feel their gaze. Xiao-Mei looked at me as if observing. She’ll be curious from her point of view, though. Because Nam Da-yoon and I didn’t have much contact.
When Xiao Mei spoke her story to Dayun Nam in a polite voice, she noticed Dayyun Nam listening to her and she got into the car. I was thinking about what to take for herbal tea, but I saw an apple mint tea, so I decided on that.
Tea was also luxurious, so I used it. Using her natural powers, she brewed green tea with her dexterity and herbal tea with the other hand.
“Here you go.”
When her green tea and tea were served, she drank it gracefully, as if Xiao Mei and Tao proved that she was a scion of a prestigious family. She then rolled her eyes as if she was surprised.
“Five…”
“You’re also good at tea ceremony…”
Tao admired, and Xiao Mei coveted me. In response, Nam Da-yoon shrugged her shoulders as if he had heard the compliment. All I saw was embarrassing.
“What kind of relationship do you and Lee Si-woo have?”
Xiao Mei asked, her eyes twinkling. What kind of relationship Couple… Was a bit ambiguous. If I had to ask, wouldn’t it be about sex?
As I was thinking about my relationship with Dayoon Nam, Dayoon Nam put on an embarrassed expression and cleared his throat for a moment.
“Hmmmm, you were curious about my relationship with Siwoo. My relationship with Siwoo… It’s a bit complicated, but now we love each other more than anyone else.”
… Yes?
