#enough time

One by one, those who were relieving their stress got drunk and fell asleep.

Before we knew it, Jang Il-seo and Hong-ran were left at the table.

Come to think of it, we were sitting so far apart from each other at the diagonal end that we couldn’t even have a proper conversation.

I glanced at her and saw that her face was as red as a carrot.

“are you okay?”

I asked her cautiously. She nodded vigorously and answered.

“yes!”

He’s drunk. He’s drunk. He’s not the type to eat like this. Who fed him?

“ah.”

Oh my. It’s not easy to stagger. I looked around and saw that Mao had already collapsed on the table, and the heads of the household were walking around outside on the first floor, arms around each other’s shoulders. It’s those people. Those people fed them.

“Shall we walk together?”

Let’s laugh out loud and say it with a friendly smile.

“yes?”

Hongran’s face turned redder.

*

The two people came out of the observation deck and walked across Hongye Bridge together.

It’s been three years.

A lot had changed. The once bustling streets had become deserted, and the smiling faces of the believers had darkened.

Could it be because the lively appearance that was unusual for a demonic cult was the symbol of Chwiseonru?

“sorry…….”

Hongran seemed to feel very guilty. Judging from the way she bowed her head and apologized without saying a word.

“But that’s not me, it’s the railing.”

“ah?”

She looked up in surprise, and as she was about to fall over, I gently grabbed her shoulder from behind.

“are you okay?”

“Yes? Yes. No!”

Hongran panicked and turned around, pushing him away and stepping back.

But I told you there’s a railing there.

“ah!”

He quickly wrapped his arms around her waist as she tried to fall backwards.

“Lord, Master… … .”

Then Hongran is embarrassed and doesn’t know what to do. Her neck turns red.

“Hongran.”

As I look closely, her eyelashes flutter violently.

But then I realized that my gaze was lower than hers and hurriedly covered it with my delicate hand.

But it’s no use. I’ve already seen it.

An unusually large, blue tendon on the nape of the neck.

It’s the aftereffect of poison.

As I followed the path of poisoning, my tendons grew larger and my blood became poisoned.

He has reached the level of a poisonous blood person, which is considered the highest level in terms of poison.

How much effort did you put in in that short amount of time?

Unlike herself, who was impervious to poison, she must have had to endure extreme poisoning with her bare body.

I imagine it must have been a time of unimaginable suffering.

As his expression hardened, Hongran quickly blew away the intoxication and spoke with a sad smile.

“It’s strange… … .”

“No way.”

It was true. I knew all too well why she devoted herself to training so much.

Because I know that she is the woman who waited for me without ever complaining.

Because that heart is so beautiful.

He took her hand and said to her.

“Pretty.”

So you don’t have to hide it. It’s okay. Hongran answered with her brightest smile and tearful eyes.

“I missed you.”

I missed you.

My heart thumped because I knew how sincere those words were.

Clouds pass by, and a round full moon rises over Moonlight Lake.

And right then.

“Jang Il-seo ran away from home!”

Mao’s waking up and fussing breaks the awkward night air.

“Phew.”

“haha.”

The two people soon looked at each other and burst into loud laughter.

“let’s go.”

“yes.”

A little closer.

It was one night.

*

Late evening after dinner.

Jang Yi-seo returned to his room in Chilsogung after a long time.

Perhaps because Hongran had been consistently taking care of it, it was as clean and unchanged as if I had stayed there yesterday.

My heart was like that too.

Even though it was a place I visited after a long time, it was more comfortable than anywhere else.

Perhaps because this is my real home. Of course, there was one more thing.

‘The three years I spent on death row were really tough.’

Thinking about it makes me break out in a cold sweat.

“It looks a lot more comfortable.”

Just then, I heard Sa-suk’s voice from behind. I smiled brightly and answered.

“Yes, it seems like Sasuk has become much healthier.”

“Haha, it’s all thanks to Ran-i taking good care of me.”

Ran. Such an affectionate expression on her nickname. I can see how close Hongran and Sasuk have become.

Well, we must have been together all the time while I was climbing the ladder of poison.

A moment of shrugging your shoulders with a warm smile.

“If you’re looking for your match, look no further. There’s no one like Ran.”

Ouch! I was just breathing and I heard a squeak.

“Ugh. Did you see everything just now?”

“Even if you don’t want to see it, you can see it. That child has been waiting for you for a long time.”

haha…….

“I guess you really liked it.”

“I’ve been watching you for three years. I can confidently say that, except for you, I’ve never seen a child as outstanding as you.”

Is that the level of qualification? Well, I nodded in agreement. He was originally an outstanding talent even in the Moryong family.

But what kind of qualifications are you talking about when looking for a spouse?

“That shows how desperate Ran’s efforts were.”

The words of the private tutor were short, but the aftertaste of the earnest words lingered for a long time.

Because I know her heart so well, she kept running silently, with the sole intention of being of some help, as she watched the temple getting further and further away.

But I’ve never thought about marriage, and also…

‘Don’t get married.’

Why does her face come to mind again in the midst of all this?

‘I hope you are doing well.’

I heard you went to Cheonghae.

At that moment, the faces of Hongran and Sahae-ryeong came to mind at the same time and my heart began to tremble strangely.

Soon, he realized the reality and shook his head with a hollow laugh.

What kind of victory is this in the middle of the night?

What is a woman in my life? She is an unsuitable luxury. He soon narrowed his eyes and answered playfully.

“But I’m starting to feel a little sad. Is it me or Hongran?”

Then, Dokma coughed in vain, looking very flustered.

“Nonsense! Anyway, think carefully. If you are not my match, I will take you as my adopted daughter.”

The corners of my mouth naturally went up. Anyway, this was the first time I realized that it was such a happy thing when people I cared about liked and cared for each other.

That’s a good thing.

“By the way.”

Sa-suk spoke with a hoarse voice.

“What on earth happened?”

For the past three years, I haven’t said much to anyone else.

It’s not that I don’t believe it. I just didn’t want to break the cycle of pain at a place where we were supposed to meet for the first time in a while to relieve stress.

one.

“I met the bloodline.”

Dokma is a person who is deeply connected to his master, just like Cheonma. He spoke frankly.

“Was that guy alive-!”

A roar of anger erupted.

“I don’t know for sure, but it seemed like he knew his master.”

Jang-i Seo told stories about the people he had met in as much detail as possible.

The townspeople were slaughtered all at once, and also how dangerous their thoughts were.

When Dokma heard this, he was sometimes surprised and sometimes swallowed his breath.

“… … You said you could find out where Jin Woo-kwang is? That’s why you intentionally didn’t show up?”

He nodded softly.

“They sure are some great guys, Jin Woo-kwang. If that proud guy can keep quiet.”

Honestly, I’m not sure about that.

I wonder if he really couldn’t catch it and left it to me. Or if he just wanted to do it.

One important thing.

“From now on, I will find it myself.”

That means he has the will.

“I believe you will do well.”

Dokma nodded with eyes full of trust.

Jin Woo-kwang and Jang I-seo.

If it were two people I knew, I wouldn’t have come out at all if I wasn’t prepared.

One thing that concerns me is… … .

“I’m worried about my master.”

Dokma opened his eyes wide and then smiled brightly.

It’s not just me who can read Jang Seo. Jang Seo can read me too.

“Yes. If the Blood Lord is truly alive… … .”

Maybe Han Moo-young was also affected. But Jang Yi-seo shook his head.

“Master said that the Blood Lord is an immortal being. I don’t know for sure, but it would be more accurate to say that he was the one who was defeated by Master and came back to life.”

If it weren’t for that, the red-crowned monster wouldn’t have been so indignant at me.

‘Do you think I would dare be defeated by the ghost of the god of thunder?’

Only then did Dokma speak with a relaxed smile.

“Well, there’s no way anyone can stand up to your master.”

Just how strong was it? Jang Yi-seo suddenly asked curiously.

“Who were the master and the disciples?”

Death penalty. The first to declare that Cheonma and Death penalty are inseparable.

One thing we all already know.

Dokma was startled, but soon responded as if he didn’t care, using an analogy.

“If Jin Woo-kwang is the reincarnation of Cheonma, then he was the god who cut down Cheonma.”

The heavenly horse and the heavenly god.

Just saying it makes my heart swell.

What kind of priestly relationship were these two people?

“Jin Woo-kwang was arrogant and self-righteous. He was born that way. He was the devil himself. Despite his humble origins, he possessed talent and skills that could embrace everyone. He was already capable of beating an elder when he was a slaughterhouse.”

It really is true that he was the only child born regardless of social status. I can’t help but nod in agreement.

“On the other hand, he was a small cult leader, but he was kind and humane. He was the kind of person who knew how to take care of everyone, even if he pretended not to.”

“It was the complete opposite.”

“Haha, if Jin Woo-kwang hadn’t become his disciple, the world would have already suffered under his feet. His greatest achievement was to plant a shred of humanity in the peerless demon Jin Woo-kwang.”

I see

Thinking about it, my spine tingled. He was a monster without any humanity.

If that were the case, what would the world be like now?

I can’t say for sure, but it must have been a horrible hell.

‘I have to do well, for the death penalty.’

It was the first time that Jang-seo realized his responsibility as a priest.

“Still, the relationship between the two wasn’t bad. They were always fighting like a powder keg that could explode at any moment, but they were the ones who could rely on each other more than anyone else when times were dangerous.”

Honestly, I didn’t really feel it.

The sight of the world’s greatest horse, Jin Woo-kwang, entrusting his back to someone and fighting together.

“But were there any dangerous moments for the three of you?”

“Haha, of course not. It was a time of war, with enemies everywhere, even inside the school. There was always danger.”

Looking at Sa-suk’s eyes, it seemed as if he was lost in memories of that day.

An expression full of longing for a moment that will never return.

At this moment, I felt regretful that I was born earlier and could not see that era.

Brain God, Heavenly Horse, and Poison Horse.

It was the very time when the three absolute rulers were pacifying a time of great peril and turmoil.

“But is there a way to find them? Aren’t they the kind of guys that even that tough guy Jin Woo-kwang can’t catch?”

After being interrupted by Dokma’s words, he answered.

“… … Three years is enough time for bugs to crawl out and run wild.”

Whether it’s the central plains or the main campus.

“I guess there is something to be guessed.”

“It’s not certain yet.”

However, the more dirty the guys are, the more they tend to move slowly if you show even the slightest opening.

Jang Yiseo smiled wickedly. Dokma thought to himself.

Whoever the target of that laughter is, their future will not be so easy.

“Just let me know if you need any help.”

Dokma said in a calm voice.

“Yes, private tutor.”

Could the world be more secure than this?

It was a day when I felt glad I came back.
