“What the heck is this… … .”
The sight that the Chilsogung family members saw running out from Hongye Bridge was truly miserable.
A huge flame was rising far away on the shore, engulfing even the dark night sky.
It was a fire that engulfed dozens of houses.
“Eww!”
“Fire!”
It was a complete mess. Screams and cries echoed among the believers who were stamping their feet on the Hongye Bridge, and the numerous crowds that had come to Chwiseonru were watching.
Near the village, a few brave souls appeared to be trying to put out the fire, but it was like urinating on a forest fire.
“What happened!”
As Mao shouted urgently, Meggi spoke with sobs.
“We don’t know either. It suddenly started to catch fire… … Ugh!”
“So. Where is Yongtae? Where did Yongtae go and you came alone?”
“Brother Yongtae… … Please stay in there… … .”
What the hell is this? Yongtae is in there.
“I’m going to save people… … . Hehe! Please save me, hyung!”
Meggi’s tears poured down, and Zhang Yishu and Mao’s faces turned dark with thought.

‘Oh, it’s fire!’
The fire started to spread between one corner and the other.
Someone screamed, and Yongtae and his family, who were walking through a nearby market, were the first to hear the sound.
‘Brother! There’s a fire over there!’
A cloud of smoke rose from where Meggi was pointing, and Yongtae was startled and ran out.
‘What the hell! What the hell are you standing there watching? Tell everyone to run away immediately, and the rest of you, grab a bucket and follow me!’
But when they arrived, the fire had already spread significantly, unlike when they first arrived.
‘Brother Yongtae! The fire is too strong!’
Who put the oil on it? The fire grew so fast that it was impossible to understand.
‘Water! Bring me water!’
And under Yongtae’s instructions, the Black Dragon Workshop members and the village believers began to put out the fire.
No matter what I did, I couldn’t see any progress, and I kept turning away from despair and putting out the fire.
‘Hey, save me! Someone save my child!’
The voice calling for rescue was clearly heard in the ears of Yongtae, who was at the very front.
At that moment, Yongtae came to his senses. Then, he poured water on himself and jumped into the fire.
‘Tongue, bro-!’
That was the last Meg ever saw.

“Why on earth… … .”
Mao was shocked when he heard the story. Yongtae wasn’t originally a cruel person, but he wasn’t the kind of person who would think of others to this extent.
But what on earth is going on… … .
“Everyone has a sense of chivalry… … It’s just that they can’t find a reason to do it. Or they’re used to being ignored. They feel like it would be a disadvantage to do it alone. So they cover it up with a thin sheet of paper without even realizing it.”
“What do you mean, Jang-seo?”
It was something I heard from my childhood friend. Yongtae must have encountered the sense of chivalry that was hidden deep inside him at that moment.
This is something worthy of emulation.
I can’t let him die so easily.
Zhang Yishu looked into the distance for a moment, then met Mao’s eyes and said.
“We need to save Yongtae.”
“huh.”
Mao nodded vigorously. Zhang Yishu looked at the flames with hardened eyes.
‘If it’s a fire of this magnitude, it’s not something that can be solved by just carrying buckets of water. Normally, you would have to wait until it completely burns down or pray for it to rain.’
The only good thing is that there is a vast body of water called Wolgwangho right in front.
Jang Yi-seo turned around and approached Ma-ui. Then he spoke with unwavering eyes.
“Can you help me?”
Help me? Can the magician put out that fire?
“I cannot listen to what you say as the assistant of the Chilsogung.”
“If you are speaking as my brother.”
“What if you don’t like that either?”
“I should go in too.”
“Are you crazy? Why would that punk risk his life?”
“Didn’t that rascal risk his life and jump in to protect our village? One way or another, he is a member of the Chilsogung family.”
“Huh! What on earth could you do with someone who looks like he could stab his parents in the back and crawl into a fire? It’s so frustrating.”
There is no such venomous remark. The catfish who was listening to it suddenly became so angry that it made him want to swear.
But.
“There you are. Keep this safe. It’s more precious than your life.”
Whoosh! The magician threw the staff he was holding at Meggi without warning. As I caught it absentmindedly, the magician slowly walked towards the railing.
Jang Il-seo asked with a cheerful face.
“Are you going to do it?”
“Then what can I do! I can’t be the chief mourner for my younger brother who is much younger than me.”
“Thank you, brother.”
“Clean up. I’ve been causing a lot of trouble lately. Let’s see… … . Whoever it is, they’ve really lit a fire. Tsk tsk.”
The magician looked at the flames across the lake and spoke calmly.
“Fly it as high as you can. The more the better.”
What the heck. Jang-seon understood this perfectly, nodded immediately, turned around, and shouted.
“Listen carefully from now on. We’re going to hit the surface and make the water droplets float as much as possible. You too, Mr. Chil-gong-ja. Do you understand?”
“Huh? You’re saying that’ll turn it off?”
“That will happen.”
When Jang Yi-seo answered, everyone nodded half in doubt.
And then the catfish blinked.
“now!”
Phew!
At Jang Yi-seo’s shout, everyone threw themselves into the Moonlight Lake.
and.
『Iron Crushing Palm』
『Flame Wind』
Each of them fired a blow toward the surface with as much force as they could muster.
Okay then.
Puhwaaaaaaaah!
The spray rose into the sky like a retrograde shower.
“More! More!”
The magician shouted urgently.
One hasty remark. It’s not over yet.
Finally, the dragon remains.
A red glare appeared in Guyu’s eyes as he jumped in a little late, and the rough waves were all captured in his eyes.
Then, after taking a deep breath, he struck the surface with both fists, aiming for the flattest and most cracked spot.
Oh my god!
Then, with a tremendous roar, the entire Moonlight Lake shook and, “Poohwaaaaak!” Over a dozen waterspouts shot up into the sky at the same time.
The large crowd of onlookers were shocked, and Ma-ui said with the corners of his lips raised.
“That’s enough.”
And move both hands up and down like a wheel.
Shh …
A tremendous amount of energy emanated from his body, and soon a spectacle that made everyone doubt their eyes unfolded before their eyes.
The rising water droplets and water columns suddenly stopped in midair.
That wasn’t all.
Soon, they began to slowly gather together, as if they were being pulled towards each other… … .
“Hiyaaaaah!”
As the demon swung both his hands forward with a shout, an unprecedentedly large water droplet flew towards the demon.
and…….
Choaaaaaaah!
A torrent of water poured down onto the flames, accompanied by the sound of water bursting.
A miraculous miracle that happened in an instant.
A large crowd of people, including Meggi, stood with their mouths wide open, unable to open their mouths.
These are the qualifications of an elder.
“Turn it off, it’s off!”
“All the lights went out!”
Waaaaaaaaaaaaah!
After the silence, the believers’ enthusiastic cheers flowed out. Ma-ui frowned and shouted, covering his ears at the sudden shout.
“Gaaaaaaal! Are these guys going to make an old man deaf! Can’t they just shut up-!”
Huh! The nearby believers are startled and run away.
Oh, you did a good job and now you’re acting like this. Jang I-seo came over with a smile and greeted me with a grateful heart.
“Thank you for your hard work, brother.”
“Huh, that’s about it. It’s not that difficult for an elder.”
I know it’s hard. Even though you say that, you must have poured out a lot of your energy. Even now, you keep coughing and your face is pale. That’s why I’m even more grateful.
“Thank you, sir! Thank you!”
Meggi also ran over, sobbing, handed over his cane, and knelt down to bow.
“Be quiet. Go and save the people. I’m willing to save them as long as they’re not dead.”
The magician sits on the floor as if he is having a hard time.
“Let’s go save him-!”
Mao then shouted loudly and ran out.

The fire that engulfed Wolha Village was completely extinguished.
If just a little more time had passed, it could have spread to the entire village and caused even greater damage, but it was just luck that the devil was there.
And although Yongtae suffered burns, fortunately his life was not in danger.
“Ah, thank you, Elder. If it weren’t for you… … .”
In addition to Zhang Li and Mao, there is another noble person who occupies his mind… … .
“Gaaaargh! Do you know how much effort I expended to save you, a mere rascal?!”
“Eek!”
Of course, the relationship is not so good yet. It will be resolved gradually.
The catfish and Black Dragon Workshop guys also held onto the lying Yongtae and cried for a while before leaving.
But I couldn’t just be happy.
Some people returned alive like Yongtae, but others were unable to return because the fire was so fierce.
“Fuck!”
Mao trembled with indignation for a long time as he looked at the black corpses that had been collected.
Wolha Village, which was once full of energy, became quiet.
It was filled with sorrow and gloom.
“I’m sorry. Please leave now for today. I won’t charge you any fees. I’m sorry.”
Hongran locked the gates of the temple and prepared a temporary shelter for the believers who had lost their homes. Chilmuwi then guided the guests who had come to visit in an orderly manner out of the village.
An hour passed before the situation was completely resolved.
Only then did Jang Yi-seo and the Chilsogung family sigh in relief and go to Yong-tae’s house.
And as soon as she saw him lying on the bed, her face hardened.
Even though the magician quickly treated him, he still had large burns on his arms and sides.
“Hahahaha! You’re here.”
However, Yongtae greeted him with a bright voice as usual.
“… … You kid.”
Mao, who seemed even more upset by this, frowned and came over to him and hugged him.
“Why are you doing this, My Lord Chil-gong-ja? It’s embarrassing.”
“Shut up. What the hell is going on?”
As Mao took a step back, Yongtae answered while recalling his memories.
“I heard a scream. When I heard the words, ‘Please save the child,’ I suddenly went inside as if possessed by something.”

“Where! Where! Where are you!”
Yongtae ran hurriedly into the flames and shouted while shaking off the hot heat.
“Hey, here it is!”
Then a noise was heard from below. I lowered my body and looked around, and saw people crowded under the collapsed house. There were about fifteen people.
It seemed to be an underground warehouse. It seemed like they were hiding there to escape the fire. But the pillars had collapsed, blocking their way out.
“Just wait a moment! Just a moment!”
Yongtae covered his mouth with his sleeve and glared at the pillars of the collapsed house.
and…….
“The black dragon on the right hand! Kwaaak!”
*
*
*
“This guy, Yongtae. He blew the pillar away with these very hands. In one blow.”
“Wow! But it’s your left hand that’s hurt.”
“Ahem! Anyway, I went down to the basement to get the people out… … and then I saw some strange guys.”
“Weird guys?”
“Yes. So… … .”
