A Porter Kidnapped by a Wizard - Chapter 38



038. Tribulation

“Haa… haa… haa…”

Catch a breath that fills up to the tip of your throat. There was only the sound of heavy breathing in the quiet hallway.

Selene’s disheveled look, like a person who ran away, was like a painting. If she were a hundred, she would think she was a hundred beautiful women.

In addition, if such a picture includes a pitiful crying figure, the price will skyrocket. No wonder.

However, no matter how I look, Selene started to shed a tear or two in this place where no one was watching anyway, so she was wet.

‘I… What did i do… !’

She still felt her trembling hands reminding her of what had just happened. The heat in her hands clearly exposed the sins she had committed.

Slapping Endymion. Even that was not enough, to the fact that he just came out without any apology….

She said that she shouldn’t have run away.

She somehow felt it was right that she should come out after working on the spot.

But she couldn’t. In insignificant fear.

“Ah… ah…”

I don’t know what to do. She said that if she was the old woman, she could solve it at the next opportunity, something she would have easily overlooked.

“Next chance…”

But Selene, who had already been through a series of events, became skeptical of her previous thoughts.

“Do I have something like that…?”

No, even if it is, is it a useful opportunity? ?

Similar questions float through her head. She messed with her mind like she was whispering from a demon.

Obsessed with her wandering thoughts, she wrapped her head around her head and then put her hand on her chest.

“It hurts…”

As if he had been subjected to all sorts of tortures and turned into rags.

Selene’s heart pounded madly at her torn apart mind.

‘No… It should be easy to solve.’

That’s because Endymion lied again this time.

‘You never loved me?’

It’s a lie-

‘You love me without a soul?’

That is also a lie-

How hard it must have been for him to utter that single word.

Selene did not dare to understand her feelings.

‘I don’t have the confidence to tell you that… ‘

After organizing her thoughts, she seemed to feel much more at ease. Selene, with her lightened body, slowly removed her hands from her breasts and washed her face dry.

“Yeah… I overinterpreted it…”

Endymion’s feelings couldn’t be sincere. As for the basis… It can be put forward based on the warmth he has shown so far.

If… If anyone finds out about these thoughts, they might shut her up.

No matter how well you try to look at it, it’s only self-justification.

Still, sometimes ignoring the truth is the solution. Of course… It may not be a fundamental solution, but only a stopgap measure.

Right now, Selene didn’t have the energy to devise anything more than a makeshift solution.

‘Let’s pick it up… ‘

The mind and body hurt like self-injury due to one’s own misunderstanding….

After doing a few deep breaths, I felt a little better.

It was then-

Kwaang aang——!!!!

In an instant, a strong shock hit the mansion. Selene hurriedly regained her balance due to the shaking that threw her body out of balance.

‘Suddenly, what is this… !’

Information that flashes through your mind at that moment. Selene even set up a double device with alarm magic so that he could know what happened to the magic he had put on.

By the way, that device just activated.

That means….

“Somebody opened the barrier again-“

Selene grasped the situation at once. Judging from the vibrations not stopping, it seems that the unknown guy hit hard.

‘Again….’

At this point, irritation sets in quicker before stopping things quickly. Because it didn’t happen once or twice. This has already happened a couple of times before.

‘If… If it’s the same guy this time.’

At that time, I was able to live well, but I might have to get blood on my hands.

Selene had no intention of looking down on her opponent, no matter how much she received the protection of the Dragon Lord, or even if she was protected by the gods.

The situation was not good. She’s not in a good mood for a long time now that things have happened.

Selene was a car that just needed something to relieve stress.

* * *

The situation outside the mansion was nothing short of mayhem.

Due to the expansive runaway energy, the barrier was beating like a drum in a war.

In the center was Cosmos holding a dagger.

“I didn’t think it would be this much…”

I was very emotional when I actually faced the power contained in the dagger.

Before, my curiosity completely disappeared, and the feeling of getting tired of it all showed on my face.

‘As expected, if it wasn’t for this opportunity, I wouldn’t have been able to use it forever.’

What do you mean by using this crazy weapon?

It was said that it was a reasonable consumption, while Cosmos praised itself.

“Hmm? But… Why is this shaking all of a sudden?”

Cosmos murmured that the dagger that was suddenly spewing out the blade was strange. But soon he passed without much thought.

‘There are no abnormal signs.’

Since the force was released, it was only regarded as a repulsive action.

If this… If I had known it was the cry of a sword waiting for its owner- I would never have passed it lightly….

There was no way for Cosmos to know that.

* * *

A long time ago. Shilla period.

An overly heterogeneous being born of a father who was once a king but became a ghost and a mother who is a human. That was the birth of a young man.

I am not born to be easily understood by anyone. In fact, many people expressed their disapproval.

Some even praised it as a blessing from the previous king, but even that was often turned around and kept quiet.

To human beings, they are children of ghosts. Not welcomed by humans. The only place left for such a young man to go was the arms of the ghost.

Fortunately, the young man was able to get along well with the ghosts. The young man reigned as the king among the ghosts, as if he had been born as the king’s son.

His name was ‘Byeohing’, or a nobleman called ‘Bihyeongrang’ by people.

“Thanks to my talent, I got a government job at a young age… I enjoyed what others couldn’t.”

His knack for bewitching goblins and ghosts made it possible for his eyes to widen as much as he snapped his legs over an empty lake.

Thanks to that, I fell in the king’s eyes and rose to a high position. This was a record he achieved at a very young age.

“And it became the king’s sword.”

It was a dark sword that would not be recorded in history.

Wielded only by the king’s command, and even that use was to cut down those who were out of the king’s eyes.

It was a modifier for those born outside the king’s eyes, treason.

“It was a position I readily accepted at first.”

What was the reason for refusal?

No matter how much the king’s child, if the king was alive, his mother would sleep as a commoner… , The king died, and he would not even become the bastard.

For such a person to become the king’s sword was an event that could be regarded as an indescribable blessing.

“It was foolish.”

However, Bihyung now regrets it. The king’s dark sword was too funny.

“I knew I had to kill… If only I had known that I had to kill innocent people who didn’t do anything wrong-“

I would never have accepted the position of a female swordsman. No matter how high the rank is.

“But… by the time I realized that, it was too late.”

I had too much blood on my hands. If the dead couldn’t scream because their souls were in their swords, it felt like their screams kept ringing in my ears.

“So every day was painful…”

Cool-!

Am I finally getting that punishment?

“Whoa…”

A thick scent of blood lingers in the breath he exhales like a sigh. Five weapons stuck in his back. The number of arrows was countless, so it was packed.

“This is why it can’t be recorded in history…”

I did all the dirty work, but in the end, a dog that was useless was destined to be abandoned.

His end when he reached Tosa Gupaeng was disastrous.

Still, Bihyung had no intention of dying alone, and there were dozens of corpses piled up around him.

“Wouldn’t it have worked if I had used that sword?”

Judge-

An old man who has walked with a leisurely pace like a freshman asks. No matter where he came from, he had an impressive appearance with a white coat without any blemishes and a finely grown gray beard.

“No… no, it could have been solved with your tricks.”

“You mean calling them…?”

I meant ghosts, goblins, and secret subordinates. Recognizing the old man’s question, Bihyung replies in a hoarse voice.

“I didn’t want to bring them into my dying business. And the sword…”

At this point, Bihyeong paused for a moment, but he resumed his speech soon after.

“…For the innocent people I killed, I thought it wouldn’t make sense to use it for my personal affairs.”

“Too conscientious. For someone who has already walked the path of no return.”

“There’s nothing to say even if it’s pretentious… But my opinion hasn’t changed either.”

Because I have regrets, I also think about making things right.

“You know what I’m here for. If you do.”

“I know…”

It was only then that Bihyung stared straight at the old man. His gaze was lifted with difficulty, and at the end of it was a benevolent-looking old man.

“I heard that there is a mysterious person who fulfills promises by listening to demons and goblins.”

That was the identity of this old man.

An elegant “Freshness” That is said to fulfill any promise.

“Well… I don’t feel like I’m underestimating it too much, but I’ll take it… Let’s hear your complaints.”

“Hasn’t the complaint already overflowed?”

“Yes, you know that’s not the case.”

At the old man’s scolding, Bihyung shook his head excitedly. There was no energy, but it was possible to squeeze even the energy without that energy to face the present.

“So to speak… First of all, I want the old man to throw away this sword somewhere.”

“Somewhere…”

“It’s better to be in a place where no one can reach.”

“Yeah… that’s what it deserves.”

No, the old man agreed with the words of freshness Bihyeong.

“And… If there is an afterlife, it is my wish to live at least once, no matter what environment I am born into.”

“You don’t ask to be placed in a good environment.”

“That was too much of a wish… I know now.”

Consciousness is only blurring.

The end was approaching.

“If I were to be reborn…”

Drowsy- Clinging to his ever-fading consciousness, Bihyung tried to finish his words.

“At that time, I would like to have the name ‘Hajin’.”

My mother gave me a nickname before calling me Bihyung….

When I was young, it was a nickname I was often called instead of the name Bihyung.
