Who threatened to call me Cheonmahara with a knife? Episode 100

Service (5)

Whether or not Ilmok made a face of bewilderment, Chu Il-hwan just laughed heartily.

“What can you do? It’s a test, so it should be fair, right? You’ll do well on the next test, so don’t worry too much about it.”

At the attitude of Chu Il-hwan, who clenched his fist and cheered as if he believed in him, Ilmok sighed openly this time.

“Yes. I will go now.”

As soon as he left the office, Ichimoku used his stealth skills without hesitation and moved cautiously.

To avoid being noticed by leeches like Bang Mi-hwa, Dokgo-pae, and Mak Ho-yeol.

‘Any one of the three is dangerous.’

As his level of knowledge had increased while suffering under the tyranny of Master Kang, it was dangerous to face Bang Mi-hwa head-on.

It was tiring to fight with guys like Dokgo-pae and Makho-yeol and listen to their nonsense.

The place that Ichimoku, who had been practicing hiding, headed to was the same secluded empty space he always went to.

I was thinking of taking a break and hiding in the dark shadows there.

After using his stealth skills to the extreme and moving stealthily, Ichimoku was able to arrive at the empty lot without being noticed by the crazy bastards.

And Ichimoku, who had stopped at the entrance to the vacant lot, rubbed his eyes without realizing it.

Jeong-Hyeon, curled up in a heap, was making a strange, forced smile, not knowing what to do.

“Ahaha… . Hahaha… .”

For some reason, Baekcheon was giving strange teachings to Jeonghyeon next to him.

“Oh, that’s not it. Hahahahahahahaha!! I’m telling you to do deep abdominal breathing like this!”

The side effects of the Talhonmujeonggeom were so severe that it seemed like I was seeing things.

* * *

A few days ago.

When Ichimoku had just gone missing.

The upper echelons of the Magic Hall were touring the Xinjiang region with the White Tiger Corps for training.

This was because the mission of the Baekhodan was to travel around Xinjiang and punish bandits and other evildoers.

However, it had already been over twenty days since the internship began, and tomorrow was the day when the internship would be over and I would return to the Magic Hall.

Perhaps because they had become somewhat comfortable together after being together for over twenty days, the members of the Baekhodan and the Magi-kan officials were conversing comfortably.

“Hahaha. Was the work of the White Tiger Corps worth it?”

“How is it? After finishing the magic hall, come to our White Tiger Corps?”

Among the members of Baekhodan, there were some who boldly engaged in soliciting customers.

And among them, there were some who asked personal questions, wondering if they had become more comfortable.

“Come to think of it, it seems like quite some time has passed since the youngest prince became a master of the Magic Hall. What do you think?”

As he was the youngest prince who had accumulated various achievements even before entering the Magic Academy, it was inevitable that his curiosity would be piqued.

And before anyone could answer that question.

Pot!

With the cool sound of a fan being unfurled.

“Hahahahaha! That’s a very good question, senior.”

Baekcheon, who burst into a very random and loud laugh, suddenly took the center and opened his mouth.

“… … .”

Naturally, silence fell over the area, and everyone’s eyes turned to Baekcheon.

What the heck, that crazy guy didn’t have that kind of expression on his face.

They were all shaking their heads.

It was because I had been with him for over twenty days and was sick and tired of that crazy guy.

Although it was a mistake, his peers looked down on Baekcheon because he had committed the crime of insulting Cheonma.

Even during the training process, news of this had already spread secretly to Baekhodan.

But Baekcheon didn’t care.

“Senior. Have you ever seen anything like Peking Opera?”

“If you happen to be in that town, do you think you might see someone performing a play?”

He didn’t care if others cursed at him or looked down on him. He was just obsessed with the ‘play’ and just kept asking questions to the Baekho members.

Thanks to his persistence in ignoring everyone’s contempt, he briefly heard about the play and was lucky enough to see a play performed in a certain town.

He even went up to someone who was performing a play and asked for some advice, and he ended up learning something.

And from that day on, every time I spoke, it was like that.

Bam!

“As the youngest Confucius would say! If the five stars reach the sky and you see one, you can awaken ten!”

He opened and closed the fan, swinging it around, and babbling nonsense as if he were acting.

Let’s take a moment to look at Baekcheon’s appearance as he performs a one-man show and praises Ilmok.

“That… was he like that from the beginning when he entered the Magic Academy?”

When one of the Baekho members asked the officer nearby, the officer answered in a trembling tone.

“He was originally an arrogant person, but he wasn’t that kind of man… After being punished back then, he became strange, senior.”

“Wasn’t that the punishment you received for fighting with the youngest prince?”

“Yes, senior.”

“For something like that, it seems like you respect the youngest prince quite a bit…?”

“… … .”

At the question from the Baekho Unit member, I was momentarily speechless.

Baekcheon, who was still occupying the center, continued to praise Ilmok.

Guan Du, who had been watching the scene for a while, sighed and said.

“I think maybe he’s crazy and doing that.”

“Hmm.”

Baekho Danwon, who was looking at Baekcheon at his junior’s answer, nodded as if he understood.

* * *

The next day.

The officials who had parted ways with the Baekhodan headed to the Magic Hall.

They moved under the guidance of the instructors and teaching assistants and were able to arrive at the magic hall around evening.

And then I heard some shocking news.

There is news that the youngest prince has gone missing and that he may have drifted into Mangaryeong.

In addition, there is news that Cheonma will head to Mangaryeong tomorrow morning to find the youngest prince.

However, even when they heard the news that Cheonma himself would come forward, most people only had expressions of regret.

Even though he was the youngest prince, he thought it was impossible to survive for two days in the terrible place called Mangaryeong.

“Hahahaha! This youngest prince is going to write a new history!”

Baekcheon shouted as if he was acting in a play, as if he had no regard for the anxious atmosphere of others.

Of course, everyone around them shook their heads and distanced themselves.

“Ha. You foolish things. If Confucius returns, everyone’s expressions will change.”

When that time comes, we will sing plays and songs praising Confucius.

‘Ah! I’m so inspired! I can picture everyone looking at me, moved by the songs I sing and the plays I play!’

As Baekcheon trembled at the imagination that came to his mind without him knowing, those who had already stepped back frowned and distanced themselves even further.

Of course, regardless of what other people say.

“Oh! It’s a dictatorship!”

Baekcheon was busy talking and singing as inspiration arose, and practicing for a performance he would present to people in the future.

On the afternoon of the day he returned from his training, he practiced all day long in the training ground, ignoring the gazes of others. The next day, he took over the middle of the training ground and shouted without hesitation.

Naturally, everyone avoided him and stayed far away, but Baekcheon believed that everyone would eventually acknowledge him, so he devoted himself to practicing.

And when he was in the middle of shouting, he stopped for a moment to clear his throat.

“Ahem. Ahem.”

“I… Senior… .”

Someone’s small voice dug into Baekcheon’s ears.

When Baekcheon turned his head, he saw a government official standing about a meter away, glancing at him with an anxious expression.

Baekcheon felt confident at the sight of her seemingly anxious attitude.

‘Huh. Looks like you’ve fallen for me.’

As a man who loves the attention of others, Baekcheon was thrilled by the fact that he already had followers.

Baekcheon, who tried hard to hide his joy, asked while pretending to be cool.

“Ahem. Okay. What’s going on?”

In response to Baekcheon’s question, the junior approached him slightly. Jeong-hyeon answered with a trembling voice.

“Go, go, teach me!”

Junghyun was so nervous that his voice even flipped at the end.

“Oh. Now I see you’re interested in theater too! Hahaha. Do you want to join the theater company I create in the future?”

To Baekcheon’s nonsense, Jeong-hyeon reacted as if he was starting a fight.

“That, that’s extreme!?”

Just thinking about performing a play in front of people made my head spin and I felt like I was going to faint.

“Hmm? If not that, then what do you want me to teach you?”

When Baekcheon asked that, Jeonghyeon took several deep breaths.

The reason she, who found it difficult to even say a few words to Baekcheon, asked Baekcheon for teachings was precisely because of Ilmok.

To be exact, it was because of what happened that day when Ichimoku went missing.

‘If only I hadn’t been like this…’

That day, Jeong-Hyeon ran away as soon as Ilmok approached him.

At that time, I was just embarrassed to talk to Ichimoku.

‘I’m satisfied with staying here with Jeong Gwan-do.’

Because those words from Ilmok never left Jeong-hyeon’s mind.

It was not a misunderstanding. There was no way that the outstanding Confucius could have had special feelings for him.

However, my mind kept going wild because it was intertwined with what happened in the imaginary world last time.

Absurd imaginations kept coming to my mind, and it was difficult to come to my senses when I faced Ichimoku.

So, I avoided the direct approach.

And that evening, when she heard the news that Confucius had gone missing, she panicked.

Even though I was avoiding him like this for now, I thought that if my mind was clear someday, I would be able to meet Confucius again.

‘If I were with Confucius…’

Like the first and second exams, if I had been with him, this wouldn’t have happened.

Such regret was eating away at Jeong-Hyeon.

Then, she happened to witness Baekcheon screaming as he returned to the magic hall.

“Ha. You foolish things. If Confucius returns, everyone’s expressions will change.”

Jeong-Hyeon, who was lost in regret, couldn’t help but be surprised.

‘That senior believes that Confucius will return… .’

Why did he take it for granted that Confucius was dead?

With that thought in mind, Jeong-hyeon observed Baek-cheon furtively.

‘If only I could act confidently like that senior…’

I felt envious of his boldness in not caring at all about what other people thought.

And she mustered up her extreme courage.

‘Yes. I can’t avoid it forever. Even if Confucius returns, if things remain the same, nothing will change.’

She decided to change herself, so she approached Baekcheon and asked for his teachings.

“I, I, I have a hard time speaking in front of people… Phew. It’s so hard…”

Jeong-hyeon, who finished speaking while trembling, lowered his head and took a deep breath as if saying just one word was too difficult.

Baekcheon, who had been watching the scene for a while, asked.

“So, you want to learn how to talk to people?”

Nod nod.

“Just like now, when I try to talk, I start to tremble and my breathing gets short?”

Nod nod.

Jeong-Hyeon had a hard time speaking, so he just nodded his head vigorously in response to the question.

Baekcheon, who had been staring at Jeong-hyeon earnestly for a moment as if evaluating him, suddenly burst into hearty laughter.

“Hahahahaha! You came to the right place! It seems like you’ve realized that this body has a talent for attracting people’s attention.”

He unrolled his fan and spoke again in a theatrical tone.

“However, this body is so naturally talented that it receives so much love and attention from everyone. No matter how hard you try, it’s impossible for you to become like me.”

Jeong-hyeon glanced away at Baek-cheon’s words, who was intoxicated by his own style.

It wasn’t just because it was burdensome.

‘Ha, I can’t say that I was always alone so I could talk to you… right?’

The biggest reason why Jeong-hyeon asked Baek-cheon for help.

That was because there was no one around Baekcheon.
