Chapter 138 – 如意 (2)
It snowed.
It was the first snow in this world. Maybe because of the harsh weather in the north, winter came a little early. It was quite spectacular to see the open plains dyed in pure white. Vast nature nestled in the land where civilization was lost.
Sabaksabak-
Midsummer, wearing only thin clothes, stepped on the snow with her bare feet. Footprints faded with each step.
“Can I do this?”
Then, as if satisfied, she turned her body in a circle. The thin hem and snowflakes fluttered softly around midsummer and whirled around.
“By the senses. Just right.”
I pointed out the martial arts of midsummer one by one. As I climbed the flower scene, I now have a clear advantage, and in midsummer, I share no marriage with me anyway.
It was better to catch the sense that was expressed in the moment than to understand it with my head. In a way, it was a path closer to being an apostle than a degree, but it was correct to learn different ways depending on the person who was originally a martial artist. In the past, I wouldn’t have been the kind of person to tell Han Yeo-reum something, but not anymore.
Besides, Han Yeoreum was originally a sensuous woman. With spontaneous realization rather than reason or logic. Also, it was different from the beginning with me.
When I strengthened the inner corner of the inner corner of the eye and the inner corner of the eye and the inner corner of the eye and the inner corner of the eye, the flow of the midsummer’s body was visible.
I saw it and was sure. In my case, if the Heavenly Demon Sacred Demon and the Blood Magic Gong didn’t match perfectly, the Soso Magical Gong looked like a martial art prepared for the Celestial Goddess Gong.
There was no need to create a separate martial art by gathering everything like I did. I don’t know in the future, but right now.
“Until there.”
It stopped the midsummer, which caused a snow storm and excitedly shot light waves high into the sky.
“Yes?”
“A guest is coming.”
I glanced sideways. I could see a black dot coming this way from afar.
“Are you a Protestant?”
“I guess.”
Through the dry winter wind, a person wearing a thick black coat approached.
“Heavenly Demon, Manma Angbok. Meet Gongja Lee and Lady Shinnyeo. It is called Won Il-cheong, Hyeonma Daeju, Hyeonma Daeju, belonging to the Supreme Court. I came here to investigate regarding the Void Dragon Core.”
A man who looked to be in his 40s came out and politely hugged me towards Midsummer.
“Yes, let’s go.”
It’s about time. A major lord from the Protestant Church has arrived here. In other words, it meant that people came out of the Moorim Meng. As it is a jointly managed area, of course, the two decided to conduct the investigation together.
***
Hyeonma Daeju Won Ilcheong. High peak.
He was a competent person who had solved quite a few cases as a member of the House Court.
‘I’m not sure.’
Looking at Kim Mu-gong, Won Il-cheong thought. It was the first time I had a direct conversation with the rumored Lee Gongja. I had to see it from a distance. By Kim Moo-gong’s side, midsummer followed rather calmly. Lee Gongja and Shinnyeo. They are a pair that really suits the word good man and woman. Looking at the two of them, Won Il-cheong let out a small exclamation inwardly.
After Kim Moo-gong finished his preparations.
Won Il-cheong guided Kim Moo-gong to the meeting place that was scheduled. There was a chilly atmosphere in the meeting room built on the border between the Singyo area and the Murimmaeng area.
Although the Protestantism and Murimmaeng made an inviolable relationship, they were long-time enemies. Expecting a friendly atmosphere was a luxury in itself. Originally, Won Il-cheong himself should have participated in the meeting as a representative of the Protestant religion, but Lee Gong-ja and a priestess were involved.
Thanks to this, the current representative of the Shinkyo was Kim Moo-gong, a scientist. Kim Moo-gong naturally entered the meeting place where the Hyeonma University and Moorim League members were on high alert.
The black long robe with the black dragon, symbolizing the Protestant scholar, and the mischievous attitude matched well.
‘It’s just nice to see.’
When the clothes were first handed over during preparation, Mu-gong Kim refused with a confused expression. Like, does he have to wear something like this? However, Won Il-cheong, the Hyeonma Daeju, belonging to the House Court, resolutely ignored Lee Gong-ja’s complaint.
In the end, when he was told that he had to wear it because it was an official position, he sighed deeply and put on the black dragon long gun.
Opposite the long conference room. Won Il-cheong frowned slightly as he saw the figure sitting next to the head of the Murim-maeng seat with his chin propped up. Long black hair and yellow eyes with an antique hairpin. Curiously, her right eye was covered by an eyepatch. Taken together, she was a beauty who looked to be in her early twenties at best.
‘Seonja Geuman? Why is that superstitious man here…?’
Murim Meng’s Extinction Gakju 滅魔閣主.
Twenty years ago, a monster of the Moorim League whose appearance has not changed at all since it first became known to Gangho. An (雁) originally meant a wild goose, but also meant the golden eyes of Seonja Seo Myorang (瑞猫娘). As much as that, the woman’s appearance was very unique, unlike Inse’s.
Won Il-cheong thought that he was absolutely not the one who would come here. Regardless of whether it’s the distribution or the situation. In the first place, it is extinct. The leader of the most sincere group in subjugating demons. It was also not appropriate for a person to be presented at the meeting place of the Heavenly Demonic Church.
Seo Myorang, dressed in a white robe, crossed her legs and stared blankly at Kim Mu-gong, who was seated opposite her.
“Huh.”
Seo Myorang let out a clear nasal sound as he narrowed his pupils, which had been split in a straight line.
“The bonnyeo looks good on her eyes today.”
The meeting hall froze at the sudden remark. A tendon sprouted from Won Il-cheong’s forehead.
“This person is a master of the Protestant religion. I would like you to refrain from speaking.”
Seo Myorang twitched at the words of Won Il-chung.
“This is why I don’t get sick with the old Protestants. Older things than us old people.”
Kim Mu-gong, who had been quietly listening to the conversation, slowly moved his lips.
“You don’t look very young either.”
Seo Myorang’s eyes widened. There have never been people who say that after seeing Seo Myorang. Quite fresh, but strangely irritated. Even then, seeing Kim Mu-gong’s polished face, he quickly relaxed again.
Kim Mu-gong had complicated thoughts in his own way. The reason he had been quiet all this time was simple. Because he had to explore the opponent. Actually, there were parts that shocked me more than that.
In Moorim, the nickname of Seonja is usually given to older women. The appearance of a person in his early 20s with beautiful features is sufficient whether he has undergone a half-romantic transformation or has mastered eye surgery, so it was difficult for Moorim people to determine their age just by looking at their appearance.
‘A virgin.’
Did she say TMI? It feels like she knows something she doesn’t want to know. Sunja. It was likely that she had mastered the martial arts of the Taoist family. Did she learn something similar to a child’s ball? Although it was a little jarring for her to lurk inside an eyepatch. She was pretty complicated anyway.
“Scientists of the Protestant religion should learn how to talk to women a little more. You bastard, don’t take issue with my remarks, I think it’s only right that you caution the scientist over there.”
“I’m not a bastard, but Won Il-cheong, the lord of the Hyeonma Daeju.”
“That or that. The bastard would be better for her eye health if she stayed out.”
“Noisy. It is an official position.”
“What is the formality between the rogues who eat knives? Busy.”
Won Il-cheong closed his lips. Her words didn’t communicate at all, as if she wasn’t the head of the Extermination Magak, where only the most hardline members of the Murim League gathered.
Contrary to the Singyo side, who were dumbfounded by Seo Myorang’s unconventional behavior, the people of the Murim League calmly guarded Seo Myorang as if it was a familiar thing.
“I don’t think it’s going to be something that even master Hwagyeong will do?”
Kim Mu-gong asked first. Contrary to his casual words and actions, Seo Myorang’s prayers were quite pure. If Dan Cheon-sang’s Daebeom Cheonshin Gong was majestic and vast, Seo Myorang’s true spirit was harmonious and orphaned. The word “Pure” Fits very well.
‘Is the Tao the Three Qing Power?’
Like the magical powers of the Buddha School, an aura that possesses supernormal abilities. In Taoism, it was called the power of the Three Powers. It is said that it originated from Samcheong, the highest god of Taoism.
A flash flashed in Seo Myorang’s eyes.
“I see. As expected, it wasn’t wrong that the original woman came directly.”
“There’s no way you can’t see it when you go around expressing your true spirit like that.”
“It is normal not to see it. Do you think there are any of the kids here who actually understand this conversation? I’ve lived my whole life hearing that you’re a god of superpowers, but you guys are the true gods of superpowers. Or, I wonder if it was a half-romantic move.”
“Do you think I’m half-turned?”
“I mean, you know it’s not. I couldn’t believe it because I was 20 this year, but I can’t believe it now.”
Gently raising the corner of her mouth, Seo Myorang made eye contact with Kim Moo-gong.
‘It’s a relief that midsummer hasn’t come.’
Seeing that smile, Kim Mu-gong thought. In the middle of summer after the training, he lay down on his bed saying he was tired, so Mu-gong Kim came alone. The thought that if midsummer had been here, the words might have been quite bitter passed through Kim Mu-gong’s mind.
“Isn’t my age important right now? Let’s get to the point.”
“Is there a point? Void Dragon’s core disappeared? She’s seen it in the past, but it’s not something she can sneak away and do. It would be better to check while the words came out.”
Seo Myorang stood up after leaving his seat. I can’t go without going like this. Kim Mu-gong also sighed inwardly and followed.
Starting with Seo Myorang, Kim Mu-gong and Won Il-cheong.
Only three entered the sealed camp. Originally, it was not a place anyone could enter.
“Bastard, I think we can go here alone with Lee Gongja.”
“I can’t do that. This lender has been entrusted with full authority regarding the investigation. The fact that Hyunma University did not enter all of them is the only thing that has made a lot of concessions.”
Before coming here, Won Il-cheong heard a rough explanation of what happened inside. However, the Murim Meng should not know that. Therefore, Wonilcheong had an obligation to ‘properly’ cover up this case.
“Hyunma University can investigate separately later. Isn’t it?”
“It is not so.”
“It looks like a block of stone. The words don’t work at all. I’d rather talk to that rock over there.”
“That’s what I’m going to say. If you are a supreme warrior, keep your integrity like a warrior.”
“Live and live and listen to the sound of a chest tube from Mine. It’s something to live for a long time to see.”
“Do you admit that you lived a long time?”
“Bastard, if it weren’t for inviolability, I would have cut my throat right away. Be careful of your words and actions.”
“If it weren’t for inviolability, we would never have faced each other like this.”
Seeing the two bickering, Mu-gong Kim shook his head. He said that when he gets old, he becomes a child, and as he walked thinking that the old saying was wrong, he arrived at the place where the core of the Void Dragon was.
“It is done now. Bastard go to sleep for a while.”
“What…!”
Seo Myorang abruptly pointed out Won Il-cheong’s blood donation and knocked him out.
