Chapter 205 – Laughter of Martial Arts
“If you go in that direction, you will come to Xi’an… Would it be okay for us to wander around such a busy place?”
“Ah…”
“I know there are even volcanic waves there, but…”
“Heeeee
“Keuk… It’s a place where one of the giyeons that Young master talked about before is located, so I’d like to go there… But the problem is…”
“The problem is…?”
As if Eun-wol intercepts the words of Saekma, he begins to answer.
“Because there is the biggest secret of our sexual intercourse. Young master.”
“Okay…”
Seong-il begins to worry when Eun-wol tells him that if he is really unlucky, he may run into the blood ties.
‘Damn it… Things are messed up, but if you’re in Xi’an, it’s a place you go to in the early and mid-game, so wouldn’t it be okay…’
In the original story, Xi’an was the place where the young schoolmaster Eun-wol had a big fight. Then Seong-il realizes that there are quite threatening enemies there.
However, now, unlike the game, Seong-il decides to leave for Xi’an because his whereabouts are thoroughly hidden and there is a way to escape.
‘Haa… Well, if you have to, you can jump into the inner plane and then use the portal ring or scroll to get out of the dangerous area.’
The more Seongil thinks about it, the more he realizes that Inner Plane is a fraudulent skill. After finishing his thoughts, Seong-il began to explain his thoughts to his companions.
“I think it’s right to go.”
“…Um, is that okay?”
“Yeah. Wouldn’t it be okay if we run away together to my image world and then use the portal ring to get out of the danger zone? There are elixirs and permanent food…”
“I guess so!”
Eun-wol’s worries disappear when she thinks that she can escape with the mysterious magic of Seong-il. After hearing their conversation, Saekma also nodded and continued talking.
“It’s definitely a point. If it were to happen, wouldn’t it be possible to break through the difficulties if we went back to the world of Young master’s image? If you get hurt, you can recover with that yellow and red potion!! Is it Elric that can even revive a half-dead person? There’s even a leap like Eric Sir!!”
“That’s right. And it’s a one-time thing, but if you have to, there’s a treasure trove of portal rings, so there won’t be any problems with escaping.”
“Ohhh…! Then there will be no problem at all! Just get some food! That world of imagination is a desolate place with no supplies… There is a lunch box that regenerates, but the amount is too small for the three of us to share. ..”
“Ah, you’re right! Then, would you guys wait here for a while?”
“Hmm? Aren’t you going to the nearby town?”
Seong-il looks puzzled at Seong-il’s words. He smiles and tries to return to reality for a while instead of answering.
‘I had an accident, so I don’t need to go around town and reveal my whereabouts?’
After thinking so, Seong-il returns to reality, buys all sorts of daily necessities, and moves back to the game world.
“Come on! This should be enough!!”
“Huh… Is this…?”
“It’s like food!”
It was the first instant food they had ever seen before, but the party was not very surprised because they had eaten delicious food on Holy Day before.
After completing all the preparations, they started to move to Xi’an.
“Huh… It’s filthy.”
The party moved to Xi’an for two days in pursuit of the alter ego. They bought three pack horses from a nearby village and rode them to Xi’an in consideration of the holy days when they could not use light air.
“Be patient. It should arrive by tomorrow though.”
“Haam… That’s right, right?”
“Of course! I also have memories of flying in Xi’an in the past! That’s why I take pride in knowing the road well!!”
Eun-wol, who made an expression of disgust at the confident expression of such a sexy horse, cuts off his words with a sharp tone.
“That’s fucking shit. What’s so great about grabbing and raping women, are you proud to say that? Disgusting bastard.”
“Eh? I’ve never taken a woman forcibly!! Most of the time, I chased after her moderately, asked her out for a cup of tea, and after we became friends… Uhhh…”
“Shut up you bastard. It’s disgusting to hear!”
“Hey…”
‘…They’re playing well.’
In this way, they hid along remote roads during the day, and at night, rested in the Inner Plain on Seongil, and carefully set out on their journey to Xi’an.
『Hey, how many times have I said no!!』
‘…But I thought Eun-wol was using internal energy like this?’
“It’s crazy. Don’t you remember hearing about the theory of Taegeukgeomgyeol from that pretty girl with you?”
‘…’
As he left for Xi’an, Seong-il was taught swordsmanship and simbeop by Eunwol and Saekma in the morning, and before going to sleep, he was alone in the corner of the inner plane holding the Cursed Sword and practicing herbivore.
『The magical energy inside the body… So, to put it in the way you call it, the flow of ‘inner air’ is wrong! I want you to operate it more delicately!!』
‘…Ha, I got it!!’
The ‘cursed sword’ that was taught the theory and technique of ‘Taegeukgeomgyeol’ together with Seongil from Eunwol a few days ago.
He very easily grasped the description of Taegeuk Sword Gyeol explained by Eunwol to the subject, an ego sword born in a fantasy world.
‘I get pissed off, but since he did as he said, Eunwol also praised him.’
Tired of the nagging of the cursed sword for several days, Seong-il tried to unfold the Taegeuk sword as much as he could.
Then Eunwol, who saw him, praised his training method, and starting from that praise, the arrogant sword began to stir-fry him every day.
“Joy! Did I tell you! This body is said to have a good reputation when it comes to swordsmanship.”
‘Okay!! Okay, so stop grinding!!’
『Then did you do well?』
‘Ugh…’
A cursed sword that roasts holy days without losing a single word. That night, Seong-il, who was practicing Taegeukgeomgyeol to death under the harsh guidance of such a sword, was able to sleep after finishing training only when his inner energy ran out.
‘…Huh?’
Seong-il fell into a deep sleep after intense training to make his mouth smell sweet. In the meantime, he wakes up for an unknown reason, and a mysterious woman appears in front of him.
‘…What? Who is this woman?’
In-young, who appeared out of nowhere, appeared to be a woman dressed as a midfielder. Seong-il is taken aback by this strange situation, but realizes that this is a dream world due to his previous experience as a voodoo doll.
‘…Could it be that the guardian doll is warning me?’
Seong-il suddenly remembered the voodoo doll he had recently picked from a lottery. The moment he ponders this bizarre situation, her In-young’s face is revealed and she starts talking to him.
“…Gwido-sama, can you really save my father if you teach me the art of shinning?”
“Of course! Your father is poisoned with a deadly poison, so he can’t buy much of it normally, but if I try my hand, I can buy it! Oh, and I’m not a ghost, but a ghost.』
“…Why did you name it so stupidly?”
“…I thought it was pretty cool, but anyway!! This antidote is enough to save your father! On that condition, I want to exchange it for your ceremonial magic.”
“…If my father really survives, I will. However, this wind god is our family’s Dokmun Festival. Therefore, I think I can only give it to you if I see with my own eyes that my father’s poison is detoxified by the cancellation.”
『Ah, of course.』
After answering that to the woman in front of her blurry eyes, ‘I’ takes out a bottle of her green potion from her arms and throws it at her.
‘…Isn’t that the detoxification potion that Erica made for me a while ago? For a moment!! In this situation, is it possible that my alter ego’s actions can be seen through my dreams?!’
Seong-il now confirmed roughly how things are going. While he is dumbfounded, the woman in front of him starts talking to his alter ego as if wondering.
『…To give you an antidote right away like this? Aren’t you worried that I’ll betray you?”
“Of course. Drinking that potion will free your father from addiction, but that doesn’t mean he can live.”
“…What do you mean by that?”
“Ah, literally. Your father is not in a situation where he can live by detoxifying the poison.”
『!!』
A woman who seemed shocked by the alter ego’s words. To such a woman, her alter ego throws a very small yellow potion and tells her,
“Drink. If you drink it, I will tell you why your father is dying.”
“…Why should I do that? How can I trust you? I have no choice but to talk to you like this because my father’s life is at stake right now, but you’re nothing more than a thief who secretly broke into our house a few days ago and tried to steal our money.”
She is a woman who stares at her alter ego as if she is very suspicious. Then her alter ego laughs very loudly and starts answering her back.
『If you don’t like it, quit~ Then I’ll just get rid of it and go somewhere else. Did you see it last time? No matter how great a master you are, if I decide to run away, I can always run away using Taoism.”
『…』
“This is your last chance. A chance to save your father’s faceless god.”
『That… How did that?!』
『There are no eternal secrets in this world~』
『…』
Seong-il was shocked by the conversation between the two, as if he had been stabbed in the back, and began to figure out what was going on.
‘…This crazy bastard is trying to hijack the faceless fighting event in Xi’an instead of me?!’
The actions of the alter ego, probably trying to intercept the light martial arts event that allows you to move quickly in the field. The time when Seong-il was shocked by his appearance. The woman in front of her sighs and starts drinking her yellow potion as he said.
『Gulp… Gulp…』
“How do you feel?”
『!!』
The woman who drank her yellow potion looked like she was in shock, and continued her words while looking at her alter ego with her surprised eyes.
“This… What is this? As soon as I drink it, I feel a tremendous sense of vitality..!!
『Kill Kill!! It’s literally a vitality potion! Your father is in an extremely weak state of mind and body due to his long struggle with the disease. Even if you save your life by detoxifying the poison with the detoxifying potion I gave you right now, your energy has declined so badly that if you leave it as it is, you will eventually die without lasting a month or two.”
“That… You mean that?”
“Huh. If you don’t have that yellow potion, having a green potion won’t solve the problem~ FYI, time is running out to find a replacement for the yellow potion, so there’s no other way than this?”
『…』
The woman who found out why he handed over the cancellation of the contract so easily to her. She approaches the alter ego, biting her lip tightly as if in great resentment. Then her appearance revealed in the dark.
‘…Fuck it’s pretty!?’
Her ebony-dark hair and impeccable skin. Although she is short, a soft impression appears with her voluptuous breasts.
“Huh? Ambushing and stealing it? I can run away anytime…”
Dump!!
That moment when the alter ego felt threatened by her sudden action, leaning back slightly and touching her ring. She speaks servilely to him, bowing like a woman on her knees and doing her five fighting spirits.
『Your ears are also old! Please give me the potion and save the girl’s father!!
『Not even ears… Anyway, my conditions are the same as before. In exchange for the green potion, ask for Wind God’s Treasure! Then I’ll let you trade this yellow potion for more!』
『…Are you talking about additional deals?』
“Huh. Since green has to be exchanged with non-level, shouldn’t yellow be traded additionally?”
『What… What are you trying to trade the yellow potion with?』
『Your purity.』
『!!』
『Literally~ I like women! If you want to make a deal with me, offer your body to me.”
『That… Such nonsense!!』
『If you don’t like it, don’t~ Anyway, let’s meet again tomorrow evening here. Let’s meet again with the secret class.”
『…』
『If you don’t come, I know you don’t want to do business, so I’ll give up my secret salary. But, think carefully!』
Having said that, the alter ego disappeared in an instant using a transparent ring, and the woman bit her beautiful lips and made a devastated expression at the sight of him.
“Fuck!!”
The dream ended like that, and Seong-il woke up in that situation and got up from his seat swearing.
“Ehh? What’s going on? Gongja-nim?”
“Yeah… I just went through something weird!”
So Seong-il began to explain the dream to the party.
