Chapter 702 – Laughter of Martial Arts
“How can you think that it is not the tomb of a blood god when a mysterious space covered with all sorts of magical arts appears?”
“!!!!!”
Seong-il feels that Hye-myeong’s words are very reasonable. According to his words, she realizes that if she randomly spreads magic, magic circles, potions, consumable artifacts, G.E.C.R, etc. Obtained from other worlds and decorates them sensibly, the people of this world will be thoroughly deceived.
‘The fighting power of people in the martial arts world is bloody… But that’s it.’
In this world, only the technology to train the body is developed to the extent of deformity, and the development of technology such as magic is almost non-existent.
‘Even I’ve only been missing for two or three months in the time stream here, so it’s even more advantageous to be out of line of suspicion.’
In addition, Seong-il can quickly create a ‘dungeon’ using Edward and the material Ethereal Stone. Because of this, he decides to proceed with the plan proposed by Hyemyeong.
“Certainly… It seems to be okay. If it’s my ability, it’s not difficult to make a decent burial mound within a few days.”
“That’s it!”
When Hyemyeong seems to agree with Seongil’s opinion, she puts on a happy expression and nods her head.
“Then, let’s listen to Ambassador Hyewon’s opinion. What does it mean to know the secret of the sealing related to the blood god?”
Knowing through the gameplay that the two monks had no such secret, Seong-il questions Hye-won with a look of mixed wonder and disbelief.
‘Try to lie…’
Seong-il asks Hye-won to tell her information.
“It’s simple. Does the donor have the seal of the blood god?”
“Sure.”
At Hye-Won’s words, Seong-Il brings the Seal of the Blood God that she secretly hid in the Inner Plane and shows it to him.
“Give it to me for a minute”
“Yes.”
Seong-il obediently handed him a black wooden box that was spraying ominous power around him at the request for the seal.
“As expected… The sarira left by the priestess of Muryang is still intact.”
“…This one?”
Seong-il knows some basic common sense related to Buddhism, so he answers by pointing to a round bead that looks like a pearl among all the ornaments surrounding the wooden box.
“Yes. The sari is no ordinary object.”
Hyewon explains that the sarira in question is the true sarira of a divine monk who was called the reincarnation of Buddha two hundred years ago.
“…Shinseung Muryang Ambassador is literally a Buddhist legend.”
Hye-won calmly explains to Seong-il how great Ambassador Muryang is.
Surprisingly, he explains that he is one of the two undisputed figures who subdued the evil god when the blood god descended for the first time.
“Huh? Wasn’t the Blood God sealed by the Taoist Master?”
Having learned through gameplay that the person who sealed the blood god was a guru, Seong-il questioned Hye-won’s answer back in doubt.
“The person standing in the center is a Taoist. However, the role of the immortal monk was by no means small. Right now, if only Tao Wen played a full role in sealing the Blood God, why would Qingmingjin people burst into laughter to take over the seal? Would you like to come?”
“But…”
“As I just said, it is true that the main role of sealing the Blood God was played by a guru who did not know this.”
Hye-won explains that the reason why the seal of the blood god was hidden in the Temple of Laughter was to deceive the world.
Hye-won explains that since the Taoist led the work, the followers of the Blood God believed that the seal was hidden in the Taomen, and to take advantage of that belief, they returned the seals to temples including the Temple of Laughter and hid them.
“Aha… I’m laughing out loud because of the deceit…”
“Of course, that’s not the only reason.”
Hye-won continues her explanation by showing a sarira stuck near the lock of a wooden box that is filled with ominous power.
“There are two main components of the seal. The first is a wooden box and amulet handmade by an unknown master.
Hyewon explains that unlike the seal of Domun, which loses its power over time and requires a new amulet periodically, the sarira of Shinseung does not have any adverse effect on the seal as long as it is replaced periodically.
“Of course, you have to replace it according to the rules set in a place where Buddhist light overflows, but… If you have knowledge in Buddhism, it is not difficult to replace it. And there are more than a dozen relics left by the priest, and the relics are found in scenic temples throughout the central plains. It is stored in a separate area, so accessibility is good.”
Saying that, Hye-won takes out a pearl-like object from her bosom and shows it to Seong-il.
“This…?”
“Yes. This is another sarira left by a priest. It has strong anti-magic attribute, so it helps the seal not run out of control.”
After completing her basic explanation of her sarira, Hye-won throws an additional bombshell remark to solidify her Seong-il’s heart.
“Actually, this saree is not something that can only be used for sealing!”
Hye-Won explains that if Sari gives up the power of Anti-Magic under the condition that the seal remains normally, it can transform into a powerful anti-demon object depending on how it is used.
“Jemma’s thing…?”
“Yes. If you use this saree for that purpose, there will eventually be a problem that the seal release is accelerated… But instead, it has the advantage of being able to plant a lot of poison in the body of the resurrected blood god.”
“Hoo…”
As long as you can handle the risk of breaking the seal, it seems that there is a means to deal a powerful blow to the blood god.
Sooner or later, Seong-il shows interest in Hye-won’s words, as he is in a position to have a big fight with his blood god.
When Seong-il seems to be interested in her own opinion, Hye-won seems to have made up her mind and she reveals the last secret she knows about her.
“Does the donor know the identity of the thing sealed in that wooden chest?”
“Yes.”
Of course, since he had seen the ending through the game, Seong-il already knew that the heart of the blood god was contained inside that wooden box.
“Hmm. You know, it’s easy to explain. The moment the seal is broken, I can embed the sarira attached to the wooden box and the sarira I have into the heart of the blood god. This is my trump card. The moment this is pierced, the blood god If you can’t, you won’t be able to use your full strength for a day.”
“Ohh…”
Seong-il could sense that he was telling the truth through emotion. However, apart from him, she has one point he doesn’t understand, so he decides to ask honestly.
“Ambassador. I’ll admit that I’m moved by your opinion. However, there’s one thing I just can’t understand.”
“What could it be?”
Seong-il explains the story of the game, making the excuse that he is a guru of the Yin-Yang Hall.
In that world line, she briefly recites the story of how she herself died, and Handan, the death penalty, survived instead and wandered around the central plains with the two monks.
“…The ambassador, whom I saw through the leaked secrets of heaven, did not explain to Handan, the brother-in-law, that there was such a treasure of Jema. But why do you explain that I have such a treasure?”
At Seong-il’s words, Hye-myeong, who was quietly listening to their conversation, intervenes in the conversation with a smile.
“Of course! As I explained earlier, if you remove the relic of the infinite priest from the wooden box, the release of the seal will be accelerated.”
Hyemyeong asserts that she would not have answered because she naturally did not want the death penalty in another time line to be unsealed.
In addition to this, she said, she was also concerned that even more serious problems might arise if the secret accidentally leaked into the ears of her enemies.
“That’s right. The reason I decided to reveal this secret in the first place is because I believe in the skill and preparation of Muhak Shiju.”
Hye-Won explains to Seong-Il that if, through the experiences of the past few days, she has confirmed that Seong-Il really has the ability to subdue a blood god, she has made today’s decision based on that.
“If… If the donor was just a pretty good warrior, Binseung would never have told the donor how to do this.”
‘That’s why it was like that.’
Seong-il realizes why Hye-won never explained Sari’s secret in-game.
‘In addition… By the time the three main characters develop their skills, the seal would have already been stolen by the Blood Bridge, so there would be no need to tell Handan the secret…’
Seong-il, who finally understands the whole situation, feels the doubts in her head disappear.
“Okay. I will accept the terms of the ambassador. Instead…”
Wow…!!
Instead of accepting Hye-won and Hye-myeong’s conditions, Seong-il is about to state his prerequisites when his smartphone starts to ring violently out of nowhere.
‘What?’
Seong-il is puzzled by the sudden notification and uses augmented reality to examine the contents.
『Hidden Mission Clear: Drive a dagger into the heart of the Blood God!』
“Congratulations! You have succeeded in clearing the mission hidden in the LOL Martial Arts! As a reward, we will give you an item exclusive to LOL Martial Arts.』
* Pineapple ink painting: This is a scroll-shaped item with a ink painting of a pineapple house.
* From now on, Han Seong-il or a person who has been authorized by the manager can enter the Pineapple House in the installed scroll.
* Administrators can be appointed once a month, and only characters from the world of Laughs and Fights can be nominated.
* Han Seong-il and followers are not bound by restrictions.
* If the hanging scroll is destroyed, an alarm is sent to the game master. The destroyed scroll will be listed on the Game Master item list after one month, and the scroll can be summoned through the inventory.
* Instead of being banned from being taken out, objects and people in the real world can move freely without restrictions. (However, the activity range is limited to a radius of 1 km near Jogja)
“Ohh…”
Seong-il’s eyes twinkle brightly when the exclusive pineapple house, which can only be used in LOL, appears.
‘It took me to keep the Little Pineapple House here, so I guess I can replace it with that one?’
Somehow, the Little Pineapple House was not free from the problem of destruction, so Seong-il used to feel sorry for not being able to use the item roughly.
However, when an artifact that can overcome such restrictions appears, he cheers inwardly.
‘I’ll have to appoint her Eunwol as her manager and then let her write. Eunwol isn’t even my follower yet…’
At that time, Seong-il was thinking about how to use the item. Hye-myeong looks at him and asks if he was puzzled by his sudden appearance.
‘For a moment! There is a radius limit of 1 km, but… You can call G.E.C.R as much as you want, right? If I use this, I can install any number of fake dungeons (?)…?’
“Are you having any problems?”
“Oh, no. The more I think about it, the better the ambassador’s conditions are. However, I have one concern.”
Seong-il worries that the two monks will die due to a fight with the blood god.
If the skills of the two brother-in-law had grown enough, he would not have felt the burden, but Hye-myeong and Hye-won are still immature, so he points out that part.
“Even so, I definitely want to participate. Isn’t the blood god the one who brought about the tragedy in my life?”
In addition, Hye-won strongly emphasizes that Seong-il should prepare for failure, not just for personal reasons.
Lightly, there is a way for Seongil to escape by sacrificing himself and the priest.
“Hmm…”
“In addition, if we take the Great Hwandan, we will be able to become quite strong in the near future.”
Tiring!!
I may have promised. In the end, the moment Seong-il is about to open his mouth to accept Hye-won’s condition. Suddenly, his phone rings again.
‘Huh? Suddenly, the alarm goes off here again?’
