Chapter 559 – 559. Sword Saint 3
It is not easy to sit in one place for five hours while waiting for a sleeping woman to wake up.
If this woman wasn’t about Tier 20, she wouldn’t have done something like this.
He must have already raped and killed her a long time ago. Or did she just pamper herself with upgraded charm?
She wouldn’t have put in this much effort. It’s quite unusual. Should we call it special treatment?
The Sword Saint was tossing and turning. Suddenly, I get up from my seat, startled.
He looked at himself lying on the bed, felt her body, and then looked straight at me.
“Hello?”
The woman looked at me as if I was dumbfounded when I innocently raised her hand and greeted her.
“You…”
“Did you sleep well? I think you slept for about five hours? Does that relieve your fatigue? Can you sleep a little more?”
“Ha.”
Geomseong rubbed her face with both hands for a moment. Then, she straightened her back, looked at me, and spoke.
“What is your purpose? Why are you doing this?”
“Is it okay to talk seriously?”
A woman looking at me silently. I laughed and took out an ionic drink from the storage and threw it to him.
He received it right away and glanced at it.
“I’m afraid I’m thirsty.”
He looked at the ionic drink again and was slightly surprised to realize that it was new.
Don’t you know about regression? Well, there aren’t many people who have taken regression.
Geomseong cracks open the cap and drinks it without question.
I’ve already seen her sleep for five hours, and you know she doesn’t mean to mess around with drinks now.
The woman who cleared her throat looked at me again, and I took that to mean she was ready to talk.
“Did you know he was the king of the Yakuza? Sato… What was he like?”
“Hidemori Sato.”
“Uh, yes. That’s the name. Are you related to that guy? He’s a lifesaver or something.”
“There’s no way I could be friends with a kid like that.”
“Thank goodness. I killed that guy.”
“What?”
“And if you go. You were the one who killed him, and you were the one who cornered him, but I caught him.”
“Hmm…”
“And you’re next. Is there something you’re pointing out?”
“Absolutely strong…”
Even as I say that, I feel a little embarrassed. Well, it would be a bit embarrassing to call oneself an absolute powerhouse.
“That’s right. My goal is to kill all the absolute strong people in Japan. In fact, it’s not just the absolute strong people, my goal is to kill all those who can be defeated.”
“Why on earth… No, but why didn’t you kill me?”
“A whim?”
“What?”
“No, well… If I had tried to kill him, I could have already killed him hundreds of times more. But I think it would be a bit of a waste.”
Although it shows a bit of caution, there is no sense of threat. This method definitely works quite well.
Because it clearly shows that there is no intention to kill. Moreover, as I always say, humans are curious creatures.
When you think your life is safe, it’s your instinct to satisfy your curiosity.
“What do you mean it’s a waste?”
“Talent? Ability? It looks like you are quite capable of swordsmanship. I guess you did something like swordsmanship?”
She is a woman who doesn’t really answer. Well, I didn’t think she would answer everything I asked, so it doesn’t matter.
“It’s quite funny. There must have been many people in Japan with better swordsmanship skills than you.”
He still looks at me blankly, not knowing what to say. And I keep saying what I want to say.
“No matter how good your swordsmanship skills are, not everyone can be called a swordsman. People who survive in this ruined world are not all about skill. They need luck and aptitude. Besides, if a young and pretty woman like you has skills, they can’t just kill her. It’s difficult, right? So I want to ask you something.”
My eyes shake slightly when I hear that she is a young and pretty woman. Shame? I feel like that. Is there no immunity to this?
“What… I wanted to ask.”
“Do you know of any other strong guys? Since you no longer have any intention of killing them, I’m going to go find someone else.”
“He is a person whose pride is sky-high.”
“Well, as you can see.”
I shrug my shoulders and look at the Sword Saint again.
A woman looking at the floor in silence. Then, after a long time, he opens his mouth.
“I heard that the Witch of Temptation… Is in Nagoya. The Emperor is Kyoto, the Emperor is Osaka, and the Yakuza… That scum is based in Tokyo. But if you killed her, this wouldn’t mean much.”
Hmm. Well, there is no new information. It’s not much different from the information I found when I searched for the king of the Yakuza.
Those who ate up a famous big city. But that’s natural. Because the population number leads to the amount of coins and becomes the driving force for growth.
But it looks like you don’t get along very well with that Yakuza bastard?
“It looks like you don’t have any good feelings toward that guy Sato?”
“Because it was because of their gang that they killed the first person.”
“Oh. Really? Then it’s acknowledged.”
But have the Tokyo-based guys gathered all the way here? Ah. But. Are they Yakuza guys or are they subordinates?
If you have a lot of guys, it might be inevitable.
“What about obscurity? Do you know anything?”
“Nothing. Except that the base is Kyushu.”
They give me answers, but they don’t provide very nutritious information. Ha. In the end, do you have no choice but to go and see for yourself?
But isn’t Nagoya, Osaka, and Kyoto a bit too close? How do we live well without thinking about killing each other?
“Okay. Well… It didn’t help much, but thank you for the answer anyway. Next question. Is there anything I can do now? I’d like to ask you something in return for not killing him.”
Geomseong’s expression becomes a little sharp at my scratchy tone.
Surprisingly, she may be a more innocent woman than you think. I can’t manage my facial expressions at all.
Looking at things like that, a woman like Minhee is the most difficult. Because I don’t know what you’re thinking.
“Oh. It’s not like you want to do something dirty with me or anything like that. Don’t be too nervous.”
A look of disgust. Look at that. You react the same way. This guy is the innocent type.
It feels like a somewhat honest sports world.
“Haruka, who fed you earlier. Would you like to live with her?”
“What?”
“As you know, he’s a pretty good cook, right? He’s kind, too. But he’s also in a lot of pain. I’ve kept the surrounding area completely empty, so I don’t think there’ll be much danger, but he’s a little nervous, right? He doesn’t have the ability to protect himself at all. So, I just want you to go live with me for a while. If someone as big as you guard me, most idiots wouldn’t even think about it. And if you do that, you can still get a good meal.”
No matter how much she took revenge, she was a woman with original powers.
It won’t be easy for me to handle this woman as I please. So the priority is to open your mind.
To do that… There is nothing better than Haruka’s food. There’s nothing better than taming her with food.
Moreover, I think his innocence and naivety will heal his devastated heart to some extent.
“I am…”
“Do you really want to stay here?”
The swordsman bows his head in silence. I guess I’m right.
The village people I have been with so far, my close friends. Even though they say they’re dead, it would be difficult to leave them behind.
“Wouldn’t it just keep hurting if you stayed here? The tombstone you made. Every time you look at it, you’ll constantly blame yourself. And you’ll be buried in depression. That doesn’t look good. It’s enough to remember them in your heart. There’s no need to keep hurting here. Wouldn’t it be better to protect someone else at that time?”
A swordsman who speaks angrily at my words.
“You… Are a person who doesn’t care at all about other people’s feelings.”
“If I had paid attention to that, I wouldn’t have become such a murderer.”
When I said that and shrugged my shoulders, Geomseong looked at me as if I was dumbfounded.
“What makes me angry is that I have nothing to refute what they say.”
“There should be at least one person around you who can give you the words you need. If there is someone who only says good things and asks if you are okay with it, it will actually ruin that person.”
“Ha.”
The Sword Saint took a deep breath. After saying nothing, she opened her mouth again after a long time.
“Why do the absolutely powerful try to kill everyone?”
“Because I don’t want to die.”
“What?”
“As you know, I am Korean. But how did you know that? It’s not like I have ‘Korean’ written on my forehead.”
“Title.”
“Title?”
“Koreans are probably the only ones who call Geomseong ‘Mr.'”
“Ah… I see. Do you think it’s such a trivial thing? Women are delicate, after all.”
“Can’t you just answer the questions asked instead of constantly moving on to other topics?”
“Oh, I’m sorry. That’s just how I am. Anyway… I don’t want to die, so I’m killing all the strong guys or those who will become strong in advance.”
“He was a crazy person. I don’t know how many strong people there are in the world…”
“Well… Not that many. Even if it’s just you, you’ll be at a pretty high level, right? Even among the bastards, there are only a few who can beat you. Even the American guys who play heroes will do the same. In Russia… The instructors are probably the same as you, right? You seem to have better fighting sense. Let’s see…”
The Sword Saint looks at me with an expression as if he is dumbfounded by my words.
“What… Are you talking about? America? Russia? China? Have you been to all of those places?”
I laughed inside at Geomseong’s words.
Hehe. After all, there is nothing better than curiosity. I can’t stand being curious.
“Well? How about it?”
The expression of the Sword Saint looking at me has become a little more subtle.
Did you feel yourself getting caught up? Looks like they are distancing themselves again.
Hmm… It’s not easy. I thought so before, but this woman is definitely like a wild animal.
I have a good feeling. Does it feel like a wild animal?
So I want to tame it even more. It’s a different feeling from Seungmi Se-an or Minhee.
“… Okay. Instead, there is a condition.”
“Tell me.”
“The absolute strongest… You said you were going to kill them, right? Can I go with you?”
“Why? I don’t like it?”
“Why?”
“It’s disturbing.”
“What?”
“It’s a hindrance. It’s true that your skills are good, but they only get in the way of my movement. It might be helpful in slaughtering some idiots, but when it comes to catching really strong guys, your abilities won’t be of much help. I can catch them all by myself. Eating is fast.”
“What kind of confidence…”
“Besides, I don’t even know what skills you have. If I wanted to know, I could have figured it all out already, but I didn’t. What on earth are you supposed to do with someone who doesn’t know what skills you have? So, that’s impossible. You have all your skills too. “You probably don’t want to talk about it.”
“Ah… I…”
“So go and protect Harukana. That’s what I want. If you don’t like it, say no. Then I can think about the next option.”
“Next option?”
“Why? I’m curious?”
A swordsman staring at me without saying a word. Then he stood up.
I was a little nervous, but I shouldn’t show it like that. Look at her with the most nonchalant expression on her face.
“Go.”
“What?”
“Let’s go. She goes to where she was.”
“Haruka? Hokkaido?”
“Yes. There.”
“It goes surprisingly smoothly, doesn’t it?”
“You are a dangerous person. And she is the woman who made that meal… She felt like she was being deceived by you.”
“That can’t be true. Can’t you see that Haruka has been kind to me?”
“That’s because she was deceived.”
“Oh, does that make sense?”
“I don’t know what you’re thinking, but to me, you’re like a fireball that sets everything around you on fire. It won’t be long before she becomes dangerous because of you. So I’ll protect her.”
Hmm… I don’t know why that result was obtained.
Is it because I don’t know anything about women? Or is this woman’s way of thinking unusual?
I guess I’m the type of person who feels a sense of duty when it comes to protecting something…
Well, the process doesn’t matter as long as the results are good.
“Do you have anything to take with you? Clothes or something… Oh, by the way. I told you when I was charmed, you look much prettier without that dress and makeup. So don’t do that again in the future. Why are you walking around so strangely when you have such good looks?”〈 Br〉
“Keep… Don’t say such strange things!”
“What a weird thing to say. I tell you that you’re pretty when you’re pretty. Hey, do you know how strict I am? If you weren’t pretty, you would have already died a long time ago. So listen to me. If you wear that weird dress one more time, I’ll just rip it all off and get naked. I will make it.”
“You!!!”
“You know because you were charmed earlier, right? What kind of state are you in?”
The Sword Saint’s face turns red. Ah. The reaction is hilarious. It’s fun to tease.
Besides, it’s not bad to reveal and use fascination in this way. Anyway, I picked up something interesting. I won’t be bored for a while.
