The Party Will Not Fall - Chapter 75



Only Krnovel

Compared to what I expected while walking down the passage, the underground space was simple.

Except for night wine, there were no very valuable or useful items.

A self-luminous orb, Night Pearl.

Although it was useful and valuable enough to be used by the imperial family, this alone was not a significant harvest.

“It’s Jincheom.”

“Yes, Jincheom.”

Dang Bi-hyeon thought as he looked at Jin Cheom, whose neck was stiff.

Since he was the one whom the Black Sword kept imprisoned instead of killing him, he might be a talented person who could be of help to him.

“Why are you here?”

“Because I can’t move my body.”

“For what?”

Jincheom pointed to the bathtub containing himself with a gesture of his chin.

“This isn’t just water, it’s paralyzing poison. “The fucking thing is the paralyzing poison I made.”

Tang Feixian narrowed his eyes.

‘You made the paralysis poison yourself?’

Judging from Jincheom’s tone, he seemed to be a person well versed in poison.

And the black sword used poison, causing quite a few casualties.

The connection between the two seemed to continue.

“Did you create the poison that eats up your inner energy?”

“of course. “Sangongdog is my exclusive patent that can’t be found anywhere in the central region.”

“… “You are the one who pushed me to the brink of death.”

“uh… .”

Jincheom rolled his eyes, avoiding Dangbihyeon’s gaze.

Then, as if he had realized something, he looked at Dang Feixian again with confident eyes.

“If someone kills your family with a sword, do you want revenge by killing the blacksmith who made that sword?”

“No. “Something is wrong with the blacksmith.”

“That’s right! By the same token, I did nothing wrong!”

Jincheom mutters, ‘I was scared for no reason, really.’ and breathes a sigh of relief.

That’s true, but for some reason, my attitude pissed me off.

Tang Feixian spoke in a somewhat cold tone.

“To summarize, you provided the recipe for acid poison to the Black Island while submerged in a bathtub of paralyzing poison. Am I right?”

“Exactly. therefore… .”

“however,”

Dang Bi-hyeon stroked his chin.

Jincheom, seeing his sly expression, was overcome with an ominous feeling.

“Why should I release you? “There is no benefit to me.”

“… “The emotional satisfaction of saving a poor person?”

“Dismissed.”

Dang Bi-hyeon stood up without any hesitation.

Jincheom urgently called him over.

“Hey you guy! “There may be my true value hidden that I don’t even know about!”

“Did you say that all bathtub water is paralyzing poison? “It’s not that difficult to get it out.”

“Don’t you know how important Eunwon is in the martial arts world? Oh, you know?”

“My hands and feet are shaking when I think that the ‘perpetrator’ who indirectly contributed to my death from industrial poisoning is right in front of me.”

“Then I will take the poison!”

“… … .”

“… … .”

There was silence.

When Dang Bi-hyeon tilted his head, Jin Cheom stuttered, unable to continue speaking.

The corners of his mouth trembled.

“… wait for a sec.”

“why? “Keep talking.”

“San-Gong-pok is really not allowed. impossible!”

“Impossibility is the excuse of those who do not try.”

“At that time, I really shed tears of blood, hehehe… .”

“If you spill it once, you’ll have to lie down and eat it twice.”

“Oh, I don’t like it. “I can never give it to you!”

Jincheom slapped the only moveable face as fast as he could.

“There is only one thing I want. Freedom, and the rebuilding of the family. “After speaking, there are two.”

“… “Family reconstruction?”

“okay! “But if you use the acid poison I invented, I’ll be chased around!”

“Sangongdog wasn’t very famous.”

“I don’t like it anyway. “I will pass it down from generation to generation as our family’s secret weapon.”

Even though Jin Cheom was clearly in need of help, he resolutely rejected Dang Bi-hyeon’s coaxing.

Dang Bi-hyeon actually saw the possibility of a transaction at this point.

If he threatens to the end, maybe Jincheom will reluctantly accept the conditions.

However, in that way, you will not be able to trust Jincheom until the end.

If you take a step back from this point and recruit them as colleagues by paying them reasonable compensation, you will be able to establish a more sound employment relationship.

“good.”

“what.”

Dang Bi-hyeon ignored Jin-cheom’s grumpy voice and grabbed the bathtub with both hands.

Eyes filled with deep distrust turned to Tang Bihyeon.

“What are you doing?”

“Before we continue negotiations, I’ll take you out first.”

Then, just as I was about to overturn the bathtub.

“Just a little bit of common sense here.”

“… … ?”

“I’m probably on Sapa’s wanted list.”

“what?”

“This was before the development of Sangongdog. “It’s long, so let’s skip it for now.”

Jincheom said the conclusion.

“Anyway, I appreciate you taking it out, but I’m asking you to hide what you’re going to take out.”

“Well, sure.”

Dang Bi-hyeon was considering poison as one of the means to confront the Cheonglimbu masters in the future.

At this time, coincidentally, I found someone who seemed to have deep knowledge of poison.

Dang Bi-hyeon had a hunch that it was worth taking care of him, so he readily accepted the request.

Then I overturned the bathtub.

* * *

Eleven hours have passed since Komori died.

Almost before the end of the day.

“We have wiped out all the leaders and insiders within the Apostolic Alliance.”

Jeongryong officially announced the end of the situation.

“Now the Black Island is no longer a threat to Sapa.”

Waaaaaa—!

The warriors who had searched the Sadōryun for a full day let out a shout.

After Dang Fei-hyeon took away Jang Li-seo’s body, he cut down the remaining black sword warriors.

In the end, they found and punished every last person, and achieved complete victory.

Dang Bi-hyeon went down the stairs, leaving behind the sight of the civil servants lining up to bring the Juan Statue to the cheering warriors.

The time when sunrise begins.

Dang Bi-hyeon stepped next to the woman who was sitting on the altar.

The woman looked up at him.

“Kang Hyuk.”

“No more headaches?”

Dang Bi-hyeon sat next to Dan-myeong.

Danmyeong nodded to indicate that he was fine.

“But it seems like the aftereffects remain.”

She pointed to her eyes.

The pupils, which were normally black, had a subtle pink tint.

“Everyone I meet says my eyes are strange. “Is it still like that?”

“The color has changed.”

“It seems like I have to live like this for the rest of my life.”

Since eye color could not be changed even if a mask or human face mask was used, there were great restrictions on secret activities.

Dang Bi-hyeon, who was already assessing his potential as a colleague, asked a question.

“What are we going to do now? “Did Jeongryong say anything?”

“Ryeonju? Fortunately, they looked upon me favorably.”

Danmyeong betrayed the Black Sword at the last moment, and was also the master of the blow that killed Komori.

However, it was also true that he had been active as a member of the Black Island in the past.

It is said that just before the end of the search, Jeong Ryong called the surviving executives and declared that he would not hold Dan Myeong guilty.

“Oh, I asked what we were going to do now?”

“okay.”

‘If you bring a lot of people to your side at once, you don’t know what trouble will come. It would be impossible to recruit both Jincheom and Danmyeong, but just in case… .’

It wasn’t like him to make conclusions easily and rule out possibilities.

Dang Bi-hyeon asked, constantly calculating in his mind, literally just in case.

Danmyeong asked back.

“Kanghyuk, what is home?”

“house?”

I’m sure you’re not asking because you really don’t know what it means.

While Dang Bi-hyeon was wondering, Dan-myeong added.

“Something like the essence, value, and inner meaning contained in the word home. “I don’t know much.”

The large cave where orphans were gathered and raised in the dark could not be called home.

It was more like a gladiatorial arena.

Dang Fei-hyeon thought for a moment and then answered.

“Home is a sanctuary. “At home, you can put down all the burdens you carry outside and rest.”

“… … .”

“Even if you go far outside, it puts your mind at ease knowing that you have a home to return to. “That is home.”

“Right.”

Danmyeong smiled bitterly.

She turned her head and looked at Tang Feixian.

The moment he met those eyes, Dang Bi-hyeon completely gave up his desire to recruit Dan Myeong.

“I am… “We will create the house that Danyeo wanted.”

Although she may not have anywhere to go right away, she had a clear destination.

“A house like a strong tree where all the Dans in Jungwon can come at any time and rest comfortably.”

“It’s a Danmok family.”

“Single-wood tax?”

Danmyeong widened his eyes.

Tang Feixian shook his head.

I didn’t know that people would react this much to the words I just said.

“I said it without much meaning, so don’t worry about it.”

“Danmok tax… .”

The short story of rolling the unfamiliar combination that Dang Bi-hyeon had just made up in his mouth.

Eventually she stood up.

I took the gun-gwon ji-rye with a technique I was not very familiar with.

“The name you gave me… “I will write this with gratitude, Daehyup.”

Dang Bi-hyeon burst out laughing and opened his mouth.

“Short-lived.”

“huh?”

“I’m not calling you Daehyup to express my gratitude. “So-hyeop and large-hyeop are called according to age.”

“… ah.”

* * *

Dang Bi-hyeon’s residence.

Chae Se-yeon took turns looking at the bed with Dang Bi-hyeon.

“Jincheom… “What?”

“yes.”

“He’s a wanted man in Sapa.”

“yes.”

Dang Bi-hyeon answered thoroughly.

Chae Se-yeon, with an expression of disapproval, let out a sigh.

“I’m sorry, but is there really a need to take you to Meng?”

“He is a wanted criminal and at the same time a victim exploited by black thieves. “I told you.”

Chae Se-yeon, who heard the story of the paralysis bathtub from Dang Bi-hyeon, fell asleep again and thought hard.

The blind spot of not knowing for what reason he was wanted seemed to bother me.

At that time, Jincheom, who was lying on the bed, spoke.

“There, lady.”

“What happened?”

“The reason I was on Sapa’s wanted list is purely because I was born into the Jin family.”

He said one word and closed his eyes as if he had nothing more to say.

He was still imbued with a lethal dose of paralytic poison by civilian standards, so he couldn’t move his body at all.

Dang Bi-hyeon looked at Chae Se-yeon.

“I guess so.”

“… okay. “Let’s take him.”

Chae Se-yeon got up from the chair and opened the door.

“I feel sorry for him, but Hyuk trusts you.”

“thank you.”

“okay. “Let’s get some rest until we can leave here.”

Chae Se-yeon closed the door and left for her place.

Jincheom slowly opened one eye.

He pursed his lips while sneaking a hint of disdain.

“oh. “Are you two dating?”

“They are just subordinates and superiors.”

“When are you dating?”

“Stop talking nonsense.”

Dang Bi-hyeon raises his eyebrows as if someone is eavesdropping.

After making sure that no one was around my son-in-law, I rushed out.

“Let me finish what I couldn’t say yesterday.”

“… … .”

“Actually, I don’t even want the recipe for acid poison. “It’s enough just to make it when you want it.”

Jincheom responded in a low voice.

“Do you want to make a deal?”

“If it wasn’t for that, I would have handed you over to the Apostolic Training.”

“good. “What do you want from me?”

What can you gain from a poison expert?

Dang Bi-hyeon began to point out each thing one by one.

“Teach me how to do solo in general. If you have the necessary poison, manufacture it. And all of this must be done in secret.”

“To your lady too?”

“of course. “What you are about to do from now on is confidential and your life is at stake.”

“You look secretly lame.”

Still, it’s much better than the black sword that was put in paralyzing poison and threatened.

Jincheom asked, talking to himself and weighing things in his head.

“It doesn’t matter, whatever. “As long as you accept my conditions.”

“say it. “What do you need?”

Transaction is something that goes back and forth.

Dang Bi-hyeon was willing to listen to even somewhat unreasonable demands in order to obtain a new weapon called poison.

Jincheom declared with an extremely serious face.

“I need a sense of humor.”
