The World of Sound - Chapter 91
Only Krnovel
After arriving at Maga Ironworks, Cheonhwa went into the assigned blacksmith shop and stayed there for seven days and nights without coming out.
He was so focused that he even took care of his meals in the blacksmith shop, so other craftsmen from Maga Iron Shop who were curious about him could not visit him without permission to disturb his concentration, and the other group members also spent their time doing their own work.
In the case of Noeryeong, he wanted to be with Cheonhwa, but at the request of Ma Cheol-hwan, the owner of Maga Iron Bang, he followed him for a while.
Of course, he refused at first, but when Cheonhwa allowed him and he tempted him with all kinds of snacks and toys, he reluctantly followed him.
Although there is a separate practice field for testing out the weapons they create, Bukgungyeon and Biyeon, who are not particularly interested in the work of the craftsmen, may have been a bit bored, but the ice spirit and ice soul she possessed caught the attention of the other craftsmen, so she was quite busy.
He inspired them by drawing out and swinging his ice swords, and he became friends with other craftsmen by using their weapons and telling them what was good and what was lacking.
Their existence, each of them at their peak and peak, was quite precious to the craftsmen.
It is said that the place where those who are skilled enough to carry materials and money come to is Maga Ironworks, but most of them just want to quickly create the weapons they want, and do not necessarily want to communicate or talk with the craftsmen.
That is why conversations and experiments with them were valuable time for the craftsmen, and conversely, they were of great help to them as well.
Because it made me look back on many things that I couldn’t see from an unmanned perspective.
Thanks to hanging out with the craftsmen, Biyeon was gifted several weapons made by the craftsmen for her.
A sword and other life-saving devices such as a secret weapon in times of emergency. Although they are craftsmen, they do not necessarily only use weapons such as swords, swords, and spears.
That’s why I was able to equip her with quite a few weapons, and Biyeon was truly grateful.
As the escort of Bukgungyeon, who had reached the pinnacle of perfection, he was still lacking, but he seemed touched by the fact that he could at least not be a burden.
“Thank you!”
Time passed quickly, and Cheonhwa finally appeared, having finished her work.
However, the strange thing is that, although he clearly went into the blacksmith shop to make equipment for his own use, his appearance when he came out did not change much.
Could it be a failure?
Stories of craftsmen trying to make something but not being able to make it as they wanted and then discarding it all were quite common, so Bukgungyeon and Biyeon tried hard not to show it.
It must have been quite upsetting for Cheonhwa to not be able to achieve her goal despite pouring in so much time and effort.
“Everyone is gathered here. Is Brain still with the Iron Lord?”
But something was strange.
For someone like that, Cheonhwa’s expression is bright.
Although he was the type of person who rarely lost his smile in the first place, Bukgungyeon was curious and asked a question cautiously.
“Yes. However, the work has already been completed, and it seems that the Iron Lord is playing around. How is… … Did what you planned go well?”
“So-so? I think this isn’t too bad.”
Then, surprisingly, a positive answer came back.
It speaks of the completion of a work, even though it appears that little has changed.
Thanks to that, both of them expressed their doubts at the same time, but they couldn’t ask any further.
I had thought that Cheonhwa would show her when the time came, but Ma Cheol-hwan and Noe-ryeong showed up.
“Kkiit!”
“Huh?”
The brain spirit discovers Cheonhwa and cries out in joy, hugging her.
However, Cheonhwa made a strange expression when she saw that guy.
“What is all this?”
It’s only been seven days, and since Brain Spirits don’t grow very large to begin with, there isn’t much of a difference in growth, but there has still been quite a bit of change in appearance.
First, the pitch.
It was not called a helmet, but it was something that looked like a crown wrapped around his head.
And it has a thin metal blade like a sword attached to its tail, so it looks quite strange.
“I was impressed by this child’s performance, so I gave him a gift. I used the leftover materials from the wall-powered sword that I had previously made at the request of Habukpangga. It is suitable for containing the energy of thunder, so it will be easier to condense and project the energy, and since I have been observing and experimenting with it for several days, it should not be too difficult to move around.”
“Oh. I see. Thank you.”
When I heard about it, it seemed like this was the gift that Ma Cheol-hwan was preparing.
Since only he could create something that would be helpful to Cheonhwa himself, he created Brain’s weapon instead.
Honestly, I don’t know if that would be of any use or how helpful it would be, but it’s better than nothing.
If you think it’s useless and just cumbersome, then just take it off.
So, instead of asking detailed questions, Cheonhwa answered with a word of gratitude.
And then he asked about another piece of news he had been waiting for.
“Are they there yet?”
“Hmm. That’s right. There’s still no news. Maybe it was a lie from the beginning… … .”
It was news of the Blood Palace Group leaving, saying they would bring the Great Transformation.
However, they neither returned nor sent any news.
As I was working as a troubleshooter, I had so many enemies that I couldn’t keep them in one place. Instead, I created several safe houses all over the central plains and was active, so I couldn’t even tell where they were headed.
I had simply sent them off believing what they had said, that a round trip of five days would be sufficient, but the fact that there had been no news for seven days clearly meant something.
The bastards just ran away.
With your own grand scheme of things.
“There’s nothing we can do. We’ll just have to make you pay a heavy price later.”
If that was the case, then it would be natural to be angry, but surprisingly, Cheonhwa did not show much anger at that fact.
If Margin had seen that sight, he would have wondered if something was wrong or if someone else was pretending to be Cheonhwa.
It’s true.
If that had been done in its entirety, it would have had the expected reaction.
But there was a reason why Cheonhwa reacted this way.
‘It wouldn’t be bad if you could be the bait.’
Because their minds have already been subdued.
While training them on the way, he secretly used his Heavenly Sound Divine Skill to subdue their minds.
Deep in the subconscious, he planted a fear of himself.
It wasn’t difficult, as we pushed their minds and bodies almost to the limit.
But that’s why I also kept in mind that I might run away and not come back. So, I put in place a safety device, although it’s not really a substitute.
He gave instructions to the Blood Palace Master, passing on the Cheonrichujonghyang he had obtained from Haomun.
If you ever meet again those you had entrusted to while you were away, do whatever it takes to bury it.
Of course, he didn’t say that it was a thousand-mile pursuit, but even if he had noticed, it would have been difficult to refuse the order.
Because I have instilled enough fear and imagery in them to make them imagine what would happen if they continued to do so.
‘Now that I know it failed, I’m going to try to contact you again in some way.’
I wonder how they will deal with the Blood Palace Group that failed their mission.
Should I approach you again and ask for another commission?
Or should I try to remove it?
Cheonhwa was also curious.
But either way, it’s clear that this is an opportunity to step on their tails.
Separately from that, I had also sent a messenger to Haomun asking them to find out about their movements, so if I did well, I might be able to get some clues to find out their true identity this time.
‘Even if that’s not the case, we might be able to figure out where they’re hiding their wealth.’
Of course, in order to bury the Thousand-Li-Choo-Jong-Hyang, the Blood Palace Master also has to get his hands on it, so if necessary, it can be used to chase them away.
Thanks to them, we were able to arrive at Maga Cheolbang much faster than if we had been on horseback, and we were able to confiscate all the treasures and high-quality bows they had, so it couldn’t be considered a loss, but there was still a lot we had to get.
Daehwandan? It would be good to get it.
If he was going to lie, there would be no reason to mention something as great as the Daehwandan, so the probability that he has it is higher.
But it didn’t mean much to Cheonhwa.
It’s not like I lack the internal energy to need the Great Transformation, and even if I did obtain it, the abilities I could gain would be minimal, so it’s just an expensive item, nothing more or less.
In that sense, it didn’t matter if I couldn’t get a big refund from them.
Since the Daehwandan is a special item that is not easy to sell anyway, it may be better to obtain certain wealth.
‘If you’ve been working as a problem solver for a long time, you must have accumulated quite a bit of money, right?’
They are known to have received huge commissions while acting as problem solvers, so wouldn’t the wealth they have accumulated be considerable?
Even if you just look at the fact that they have built several safe houses and are currently operating, it means that they have several houses that could be used as safe houses, so if they sell them all, they could get a considerable amount of money.
‘If it’s not enough, you can just roll it over and earn it.’
If you don’t have much other assets, you can just make them work for you and make them earn money.
And since it was something that could be done at any time from Cheonhwa’s point of view, he didn’t put much importance on their escape.
“Then I will come back when the other ingredients are ready.”
“You are always welcome. I look forward to seeing you again.”
Cheonhwa didn’t wait for them any longer.
Their location and whereabouts could be heard through Haomun, and since stealing their wealth was not an urgent matter, they decided to go their separate ways instead of searching or waiting.
“Then shall we go?”
Cheonhwa, who had made up his mind, left Magacheolbang as soon as he finished preparing.
Meanwhile, craftsmen flocked to Cheonhwa, curious to see what he had made this time, but since these were special items that only he could use properly, they returned without making much profit.
“To get the wind spirit tree.”
The place that Cheonhwa chose as his next destination was a place he had been waiting for for quite some time.
Haenam Island, where the wind chimes and Haenam waves are located.
It was located so far away that it would take at least a month to run through the entire Central Plains even if one used a new method, but if they could obtain the wind spirit tree there, they would be able to perfectly reproduce one of the treasures of the monks, the wind spirit pipa.
Because Cheonhwa had the skills to do so, and he also had other key materials, the shell of the Eternal Golden Ball and Cheonjamsa.
If it were completed, it was clear that at least there would be very few people in the world who would cause him trouble.
‘And he said it was not far from there.’
And one more thing.
According to information from Haomen, the main ingredient for another treasure, the Brain Gold, was not far from there.
It was a far away location, and it wasn’t something you could find right away if you looked for it, but just finding it there gave me great hope.
‘There’s this guy too.’
“Kkiyu?”
Besides, if you have a brain spirit, you can easily obtain something essential to making brain spirit money.
Knowing that fact, a smile naturally appeared on Cheonhwa’s lips.
If you add the newly made equipment from Maga Cheol Bang to that, you will be able to use more than 80% of Cheon Eum Shingong.
“Then shall we hurry up and take a look? Is everyone ready?”
Cheonhwa lifted her body with light steps.
Three men, women, and one spirit began to run through the space toward Haenam Island, where Pungnyeongmok was waiting.
