#Cheonma Jinwookwang (3)
Jang Yi-seo expressed his gratitude to Jeon In-nim inwardly.
Who would have thought that a place I happened to visit would be full of treasures like this?
Is this a dream or reality?
It’s too early to get excited.
‘Hoo hoo.’
Laughter keeps coming out of my mouth, but that’s just instinct. It’s not time to laugh out loud yet.
An investigation was needed. As I felt earlier, there is someone managing this place.
‘But everything the demons have is mine. Haha.’
Jang Seo-ga smiles sinisterly. Anyway, we definitely know the entrance, so now we have to find the exit.
‘Left or right? Which way?’
Jang-seo lay down flat and looked at the floor. Then, his sharp vision captured countless scattered grains of sand like a picture.
As expected, it is definitely a place where people live.
‘The fact that the dirt is spread out means that someone has stepped in from outside. And the dirt gets smaller as you go further back. That means that the entrance to the outside is in front.’
Jang Il-seo, who had his spirits up, walked forward without hesitation. Then, at the fork in the road that appeared again, he boldly turned to the right.
Then a path appeared, with a red carpet on the floor and rows of glass display cases filled with decorative items.
‘Here is… … .’
A very neat and tidy hallway.
What on earth is this place?
It was at that time that Jang I-seo was standing there blankly, out of his mind.
ping-!
From the end of a dark road in the distance, a sharp sound and an unbelievable speed of sound flew in.
That too, a dark magic wand made of formless wind!
Boom! Whirlirik!
With a piercing noise, Jang Seo’s body spun like a top and fell to the floor with a thud.
Jang Seo landed in a low position, barely holding the ground with one hand.
A tiny hole was engraved at the end of his fluttering robe.
“damage?”
Jang Yi-seo raised his head at the unfamiliar voice coming from in front of him.
And then I realized.
That I had set foot in a place I should never have been.
“What a funny kid.”
A devilish beauty who alternately examines herself and her fingers that shoot out the wind, drawing a line on her red lips.
‘Thousand… … Ma… …!’
Cheonma Jinwookwang.
Yes, that’s right.
This is Cheonma Hall.
I had walked into the pit of hell on my own two feet.
*
It has already been 19 years since we entered an era of peace.
But in Jang Yi-seo’s mind, Cheon-ma was still the world’s greatest traitor and the worst person in history.
There were too many reasons to list. Countless families and clans were destroyed by him, and his doors had to be sealed.
But that is the position of the political party, and if we simply look at the position of the president, there are only three things.
First, 30 years ago, the ten-year war in which Jeongsa-ma bit and tore at everything he came across began with Cheonma Jin Woo-gwang’s invasion of the Central Plains.
If you add up those who died at that time, including innocent civilians and government officials, the number reaches tens of thousands.
And Jang Yi-seo became an orphan because of the war.
The second was the fucking loneliness that was embedded in my heart.
Originally, this was a symbol of the fallen Blood Sect, but it was revived by the sixth elder of the Demonic Sect, Doksanma-ui (毒産魔醫).
Of course, it was Cheonma Jinwookwang’s order.
Of course, it has no direct connection to Jang Yi-seo. However, if Loneliness had not been resurrected at that time, Zhuge Liang would not have come to rescue him.
Even the loneliness that is now embedded in my heart is a new loneliness that has been remodeled from a rock that even the Six Elders cannot recognize.
It is impossible not to feel resentment about this.
Finally, the third reason was… …because I saw it in person.
This is the scene where he not only sucks the lives of dozens of spies captured by the counterintelligence unit through astrology, but also purges them by completely draining their life force through strange sorcery.
Jang Yi-seo, who was a low-ranking official at the time, had to incinerate the bones of the spies who had turned into skeletons in an instant.
And then I had a gut feeling.
This kid is a real devil.
But.
“damage?”
Who would have thought I would meet him like this? And he had to be a rat who sneaked in and got caught by the landlord.
What should I do? Should I fight? Or… … .
“What a funny kid.”
Jang Yi-seo froze like an iceberg, but the moment he heard his voice again, he fell to the ground and did a full-on prostration.
“Heavenly Demon Lord Manmaangbok! The new Seven Princes’ assistant, Jang Seo. I greet you, the leader!”
Fighting is out of the question. Even if Cheonma uses all his strength, he’ll die instantly. Even if he attacks, he’ll just die. Jang-seo swallowed hard and waited for his reaction. And in the meantime, he prepared for the worst.
‘The distance between Cheonma and me is about ten paces. What are the odds of hitting the White Thunder from here? Less than one ten. In order to raise it to at least three ten, I have to reduce the distance to three paces or less.’
In Jang Yi-seo’s mind, countless images of defeat were drawn. However, the leader’s reaction was so indifferent that such thoughts became awkward.
“So you are the noble person Mao spoke of.”
“yes……?”
“Stand up.”
“ah…….”
Jang Yiseo slowly got up with a bewildered expression. Then he carefully examined Jin Woo-kwang.
Even though he was a man with white hair, he still had a face that was worthy of being called the most handsome man in the world. But did he even know how to smile like that?
It’s a very affectionate face, different from the one in my memories.
What should I say?
His eyes looked emptied, as if he had achieved everything and had no more ambitions.
“Why? Am I the one who is strange?”
“Oh, I’m sorry.”
Jang Yiseo hurriedly prostrated himself. He had been looking at her so intently. At that moment, he even lowered his head.
‘omg!’
I was so surprised that I screamed and almost rolled over to the side. It was because of the shadow on the floor that I looked down at.
Jin Woo-kwang, who had been standing ten steps ahead of him without knowing when he had moved, appeared right behind him. Then, with an ominous air, he grabbed Jang Yi-seo’s wrist and felt his pulse.
“The energy is useful, but the energy accumulated in the dantian is turbid and extremely light.”
Why should I hear that story from my enemy, Cheonma? Jang Yi-seo furrowed his brows in inexplicable shame.
But.
“It must have been hard. You must have already passed the peak in your head and were heading towards the next mountain. It must have been frustrating because your body couldn’t keep up.”
Jang Yiseo doubted his ears. What on earth are these affectionate words? Was this really Cheonma Jin Woo-kwang right now?
The first comfort I received about my body in my life was from Cheonma.
Jin Woo-kwang put Jang Yi-seo’s hand back to its original position and took his hand away. Then he walked forward with his luggage on his back and continued speaking.
“My child owes you a debt. As a father, I can’t just ignore it. Tell me what you want.”
Boom! I came to my senses.
What is this situation? Is Cheonma saying he will give me what I want right now?
Thump, thump.
My breathing quickened, my blood became hot. If I said I wasn’t greedy, that would be an obvious lie.
but.
“doesn’t exist.”
Jang Yiseo answered firmly. He was a spy, and the opponent was Cheonma Jin Woo-gwang. If you ask clumsily, you will be taken advantage of without anyone knowing.
“Isn’t there really nothing?”
Jin Woo-kwang opened his eyes wide in surprise and asked. Jang Yi-seo looked at him clearly and nodded.
“Yes. None.”
“I see… … . Then die.”
What?! Shhhhhhh- A vicious aura emanated from Cheonma’s body. Jang Yiseo shouted in panic.
“Why all of a sudden… … .”
“Because I don’t let anyone live who doesn’t want something.”
What kind of a change of pace is this? He’s going to kill me for not wanting anything. Even his face is still bright.
“Do you know why?”
“I have no idea.”
“Those who do not want anything have nothing to regret. That is why they do not easily bend. They do not truly follow. Even if they bow their heads now, they will rise again at any time and put a knife in their back. That is why I do not spare them. This school is the supreme being. My self is everything.”
Are you saying that now? Jang Seo-ga complained as if it was absurd.
“I will never betray my former leader or my church!”
Because I never believed in it from the beginning. However, Jin Woo-kwang had a firmer sense of values than I thought.
“Everyone can make things sound plausible.”
“Then how can you believe it?”
“If you don’t want something, just create what you want. Wouldn’t that be simple? For example, if you’re sick, you want to get better. If you have something precious like a family and then lose it, you want to get it back.”
His way of thinking is so incomprehensible that I can’t even understand it, leaving me speechless.
How is this any different from telling someone to create a family for you if you want to use them as hostages?
But right then.
Jin Woo-kwang said with a playful look in his eyes.
“But you don’t have to do that at all.”
“What are you talking about… … .”
“You already know what you want from me.”
Jang Yi-seo lowered his head to hide his frustration. However, he couldn’t help but raise his head again after Jin Woo-kwang’s subsequent words.
“Nine-shaped body.”
“Ugh!”
Jang Yiseo’s eyes widened as if they were going to pop out. It was the first time. Aside from the elder life and death doctor of the Murim Alliance, Wi Ja-ryang, there was no one who directly mentioned his own constitution.
“With nine holes in your dantian, even if you learn the best secret methods of the past and present, you will only be able to surpass the first-class. Even if you drink the ten thousand years of the Who Headed Crow and the Empty Clear Stone Milk for a hundred days, your internal energy will not accumulate even a single handful and will just flow away. That must have been even harder. Accumulation is the product of effort, but no matter how hard you tried, you would not have accumulated any.”
As Jang Yi-seo opened his mouth in surprise, Jin Woo-kwang asked again with a playful face.
“Are you surprised?”
Jang Seo also answered with courage.
“Yes, that’s right.”
To be honest, it was shocking. It wasn’t because he knew about the Gyu-Gyu-Ji-Che, but because the existence of Cheon-Ma was so different from what he had thought.
He is knowledgeable, knows how to joke, knows how to laugh, and knows how to comfort.
This is… … a human-like appearance, completely different from the devil he remembered.
Woohoo!
At that moment, when Jang Yiseo’s focus was blurred, uncontrollable magical energy shot out from Jin Woo-kwang’s body.
Kwaaaaaaah-!
A dark aura flows out like a mist over the shoulders, creating dark shadows.
It is an enormous spirit that seems to crush the world.
This is the power of the best in the world!
As Jang Yiseo looked at this, completely dumbfounded, Jin Woo-kwang smiled coldly and stretched out his hand forward.
Then, the black magic wand spreads out like a swarm of thousands of poisonous snakes.
“This is the gift I give you.”
And then crap!
It flew straight in and stabbed Jang Yi-seo in the lower abdomen like a knife. The magic energy seeped in ceaselessly.
“Cough!”
A pain that makes it hard to breathe follows, and the whites of the eyes turn black. Not only that, but all the blood vessels turn black as if black blood is flowing through them.
This is a symptom that occurs when the demonic energy of the Heavenly Demon that entered the Dantian stirs the meridians.
Why on earth?
Jang Il-seo glared at him, holding onto the last bit of his sanity at his incomprehensible actions.
Then Jin Woo-kwang said this with a still affectionate smile.
“Homework. Find a clue to cure your body. Of course, there won’t be much time.”
Thud. Jang-seo fainted after saying those words.
After a while, his darkly swollen veins slowly subsided and regained their original color.
And Jin Woo-kwang muttered while looking at it closely.
“A child with nine holes… … If I blocked all nine holes, I would be able to look down on the world, but that would be impossible even for a god. I thought there were no more children here in Cheonsan who would be of interest to me.”
The corners of his mouth were elongated like a child discovering a new toy.
However, unlike his innocent appearance, his next words were truly timid.
“If you don’t find the clue, your body will die in less than a month. This is the punishment for sneaking in.”
He shouted, scanning the dark distance ahead.
[Come and get it.]
Then, after a while.
Mao, who was waiting for his internal energy to recover in front of the Cheonma Hall’s gate, suddenly ran over, startled him, and then disappeared carrying Zhang Yishu.
Jin Woo-kwang watched with interest until the two people disappeared, then suddenly turned around.
Looking forward to the day when they will come back and bring fun to my free life.
