Chapter 22 – 22. A Teacher’s Grace Is Like the Sky~
Finally, I said goodbye to the Sichuan branch.
Although it was short-lived, it seemed to have stayed for quite a while, probably because there were various things, such as receiving the necessary cooperation to attack 〈 Firebird’s Nest 〉 or overturning the Blue Star using white dust.
The head of the branch even came out to see Master and I off.
His face was quite haggard compared to his first meeting. From the report on 〈 Fire Bird’s Nest 〉 where Ju-jak, one of the Four Gods, is the Ma Gyeongju, to the attempted assassination of Baek-jin, the work has become overloaded. It’s a shame because he’s unmanned. If he was an office worker, he might have collapsed a long time ago. In fact, I heard rumors that office workers who manage some paperwork are enduring themselves by drinking soup.
“I owe you a lot.”
“No. Rather, it’s just that Baek So-hyeop was left to get involved in such a thing, and it’s just disrespectful. I didn’t know that Elder Baek Jin would commit an attempted murder in front of everyone.”
Even if he wasn’t the strongest, he was the head of the Moorim Maeng Sacheon branch. That’s why I felt like I was saying that because I felt a sense of responsibility while at the same time my pride was hurt because I was harmed openly.
Then, our master looked at me with the eyes of a pile of accidents and shook his head.
“No. My stupid student deliberately provoked corruption, so it was inevitable. I am. Who would have known that this master would explode the hard-earned information like this.”
Haha. But thanks to that, the Cheongseong faction is very bloody.”
“What’s the bloody wind? It’s not really a fight with a knife, it’s just a political fight with three chi tongues.”
“But isn’t it sometimes said that a brush is sharper than a sword?”
I agree to some extent with the manager’s opinion. There are times when words can be a dagger that hurts people more than martial arts. It is not that there are people who fall into depression and give up or even harm themselves just because they are bullied at the school.
Even if he is a military man, his base is a person no different from a civilian. Humans are delicate animals, so they are even more fragile.
Although Gangho does not acknowledge that at all. If it’s severe, wouldn’t it be a life or death to the other person who threw an insult to deny that he was mentally weak? Since such things are common in rivers and lakes, why don’t they admit that martial arts are mentally strong, but in fact, they are to hide their weakness?
“Baek So-hyup is going well too. Thanks to you, incidents haven’t stopped for the past few days… But thanks to you, I’ve been able to get better results.”
“You’re doing well, branch manager.”
“That’s right. You’ll only resent me as much as I’m overworked with work.”
“…”
This person is the branch manager with a lot of connections to the point of being suspicious, so now I get a little goosebumps when I say that I really resent him. If you seriously think about it, if you buy grudge, it’s okay to take revenge of the gentleman, and it’s okay to take revenge for 10 years.
After saying goodbye to the branch manager, Master and I set off.
Our next destination was Shaanxi, but it wasn’t a direct return to Huashan Wave.
First of all, I needed to shorten the remaining growth period before stopping by eating the inner hem of the Suzaku, and after that, there was another demonic scene to hear.
“Master Lee will help you digest Suzaku’s internal altar. Anyway, I didn’t know that Suzaku’s internal altar would be effective before the interruption.”
“Zuzak’s greatest strength is not its firepower. It is dangerous as the flame itself burns the air and disrupts breathing, but more than that, its vitality is tenacious. It would have been impossible to even put it on.”
“Then, do you know about the other death gods in the future?”
Baekho and Suzaku are now subjugated. The Four Gods who would appear in the future were Blue Dragon and Hyeonmu, and of course I knew about them as well.
The Blue Dragon causes storms and causes natural disasters in a different sense from Suzaku. If Zuzak creates an inferno, Blue Dragon creates a storm zone and deprives the air with a whirlwind, distorting breathing. On such a subject, Yongrin was as strong as he was worthy of his name, so he couldn’t even be hurt unless it was at least as strong.
Also, there is no Naedan, but instead, Yeouiju is held, and if you eat it, the upper storey is opened. By the way, I was thinking of saving Yeouiju in a different way.
Hyeonmu handles water and ice with restraint due to its ice-temperature attribute. Funny enough, it has a hard shell that is almost on par with the white tiger, which is said to have the best defensive power among four gods, but unlike other four gods, it does not cause storms or explode lava, but it does cause tidal waves.
Either way, it’s difficult to deal with, and it can’t be helped that the damage continues.
Master, who heard my explanation, put on a very confused expression.
“That’s true. I didn’t know that being a police officer would make me feel so helpless. Just hearing what you say makes me hard to understand.”
“It has no choice but to be. The disciple is proud of the master who is not conceited.”
“Chemm.”
He seemed shy, but I could find a proud aspect in it. I’m not kidding, Master can really be proud.
While Hwagyeong opens up to Sangdanjeon, Hyeongyeong is the last point where you can reach Sangdanjeon, where you can learn the spirit of samhwa and form a trinity. Usually, Sangdanjeon is more useful for witchcraft, but for warriors, it’s closer to being qualified to become a Taoist by making them realize the power of will called will.
In other words, it is safe to call Hyungyeong a freshman candidate.
As much as that, it is common for masters of the Hyungyeong to lose their cowardice as the sense of omnipotence fills their whole body at the fact that they have unconsciously come to a state where they can shed their human shell.
And he doesn’t know that he also has a limit after all, so he is fooled by a master, or enters the black magic world without fear, and is defeated by the great monster, the horse race. It’s not a joke, the number of soldiers who died that way is really not one or two.
‘Since humans have reached the limit of the species, they just misunderstood the omnipotence that they can do anything in this underworld. It’s not that Hyungyeong isn’t great.’
Due to the existence of the demonic realm, the new Murim spurred the training of warriors by obtaining internal affairs or new recruits, so the number of hyeongyeong was higher than that of the old Murim. Even so, it was still a very small number, but first of all, the number of flower mirrors has doubled, so some old masters who know the history well or know the old times claim that now is the golden age.
That’s why I thought that Master, who had risen to the prefectural police and did not harbor arrogance with superhuman patience, was amazing.
It wouldn’t have been strange for them to be angry when they heard the things I told them about the future, saying that there was no way that the masters of the river could have collapsed so vainly.
“By the way, disciple. Are you really going to challenge that?”
“Yes. Before that, I’ll need to eat the inner end of Suzaku, but I don’t intend to skip it. No, that shouldn’t be the case.”
“Hagisa. If you’ve risen to the realm of the Hwagyeong, you’ll be able to capture it without any problems even in that demonic realm. Even though the place is the place.”
“Still, greening is okay because you can pay for it.”
The place we are going to now is the power of the green forest that holds the ground on any ridge.
Yes. Nokrim, those bandits who boast of their ugliness by rushing at a group of passers-by and offering money to get out of the way. A person from the political faction openly seeks the power of the Sa faction? It doesn’t look good, but in this day and age, it’s not really a problem.
‘These days Sapa is not Sapa.’
After the appearance of the Magician, Sapa was ruined.
If there was Murimmaeng in the political faction, there was an alliance called Sapaeryeon in Sapa, but they didn’t attack at all, saying they would recognize the value of the Magician and pick up mulberry. It was just like hunting rare ores or miscellaneous monsters in the fairy world to obtain an altar.
And in return, on the day when the elites of the Sapaeryeon gathered to increase the unity of the organization and gain an advantage over the Murim Meng, the demons that had not been attacked collapsed all at once, and the monsters went on a rampage, and the elites of the Sapaeryeon surrounded by it. They all died
To put it simply, it was truly destroyed.
In the end, the only ones who survived were Hao Munju, whose identity was unknown even in the future, and Green Forest, who took the form of a point organization. If only these two powers were eliminated, Sapa could have been almost destroyed, but surprisingly, Hao Munju gave the information of the demonic world obtained through the ganja Hao Mun planted in each faction to the Murim League, and Green Forest roamed the mountain ranges untouched by humans. He found the demonic spectacle and reported it to the government office.
In the end, the Murim Lord had no choice but to leave them unattended because they needed Hao Mun’s information power to manage the Demonic World possessed by each family and clan.
Green Forest stopped looting after the appearance of the Demonic Scenery and reported to the government office the Demonic Scenery that appeared in the mountain range, and then managed it, and was treated as a ‘people, not a bandit’, and the political faction lost its justification for subjugation.
Since then, Nokrim has maintained his life by living in the mountains, wandering the mountains, and reporting to the government office when he finds an undiscovered Magical Scene, receiving rewards, or managing and mining them himself.
If I had to look for exceptions, there were a few, and one of them was the one where Master and I had just arrived.
“Magyeong Tickets! We are selling Magic Palace Tickets! Five Hermits!”
“Are you ripping you off? Boy! I’ll sell it for four hermits! Buy it from me!”
“Hey, you bastard! What kind of morality is it to interfere with other people’s business?!”
“We’re bandits, you crazy bastards. Where’s the commercial morality?”
It was also a place where green forests transformed mountains into tourist attractions, and it was also the place where the demonic scene occurred.
