Who threatened to call me Cheonmahara with a knife? Episode 179
Career path (4)
About a month before the graduation ceremony for the Magic Academy.
One of the five major sects of the Cheonmasin religion and a prestigious family that produced the current Cheonmas. A special incident occurred at Hyukryun Sega.
Hyukryun Hwan, the eldest son of Hyukryun Cheon-gang, the head of the Hyukryun family, and the head of the small family, has just finished his three-year-long closed-door training.
“Meet the Lord!”
“You have really changed beyond recognition, Lord Soga!”
Despite the praise from his family members, Hyukryunhwan simply nodded with a face full of gravity and headed off somewhere.
He was on his way to the family’s main office to inform his father and head of the household, Hyukryeon Cheon-gang, that the closing ceremony had been completed.
As he arrived near Gajujeon, the voice of Hyukryeoncheon Gang was heard inside Gajujeon.
“Come in.”
Hyukryunhwan nodded with an expression of as expected.
Even though he jumped over the wall with his closed-door training, his father was able to capture his energy right away.
Hyukryunhwan, who entered the Gajujeon, took a punch towards Gaju.
“I meet you, my lord.”
“Okay. Make yourself comfortable.”
Hyukryun Cheon-gang, who had greeted him bluntly, opened his mouth as soon as his son sat down.
“It’s over the wall.”
“Thanks to you, my lord.”
“Okay. If I can just get over the wall two more times, I think I can hand over this father’s position.”
“How could you push away the lord just by getting on a horse?”
The Demonic Cult operates according to the laws of the strong.
A typical example of this was the tradition called the “Cult Leader Competition”, where the strongest person would become the cult leader and learn the Heavenly Demonic Art.
Of course, similar traditions continued even in the prestigious families known as the Five Great Clans.
The strongest person within Sega becomes the head of the family.
And thanks to his three years of closed-door training, Hyukryunhwan had reached a level where he was on the verge of becoming a demon.
As Hyukryun Cheongang said, if I could just get over the wall twice more, I would be able to get on the horse with the Blood Shadow Eighteen Swords.
However, the current head of the household, Hyukryun Cheon-gang, is someone who has already been in exile for nearly twenty years.
Just because he had just entered the ring, he was not an opponent he could win against.
So, the conversation between the two just now was similar to what happens in other royal or imperial houses.
A situation where the emperor or king proposes abdication to his son, and the crown prince or crown prince is shocked and asks how someone like him could dare push aside His Majesty and ascend to the throne.
At least, that’s what it seemed like on the outside.
Hyukryun Cheon-gang let out a light sigh as he saw his son call him “Gajoo” every time and answer him bluntly.
“Are you still keeping the closed-door training in mind?”
“No, my lord. I am simply trying to act in a manner befitting my position as the lord of the house, as you have instructed me.”
At his son’s blunt words, Hyukryun Cheon-gang forced himself to swallow a sigh.
The closing of Hyukryeonhwan was not something he did of his own volition.
Hyukryuncheon Gang had forcibly thrown him into the cave. He was given the order not to come out unless he could get over the wall.
His attitude was completely different from before he entered the closed office. No matter how I looked at it, it felt like he was trying to act like a cow owner and was just acting upset, but Hyukryun Cheon Gang decided to let it go for now.
“Anyway, it’s fortunate that you’ve overcome the wall. Keep working hard and keep working hard so that you can escape from the horse.”
“I will do so, my lord.”
Hyukryunhwan once again showed his respect with a lottery ticket and went out to fight.
“Meet the Lord!”
“We congratulate you on completing the closing ceremony!”
Whenever the family members he met on the way paid their respects to him, he would nod with a solemn face.
The second place we arrived at after passing the family members was his residence. It was a kind of small house given to him as the owner of the small house.
And there, waiting for him, was the woman who had taken over his duties as a sogaju while he was away.
“ma’am!”
“gaga!”
The couple, who had reunited for the first time in over three years, exchanged passionate glances.
It was a sight that would have shocked anyone who saw it.
On the face of that poisonous Madame Cheong-hwa, a bright smile like that of any other woman was drawn.
“Thank you for your hard work, ma’am.”
“As the one who would become the mistress of the Great Hyukryun Family, it was something I had to do.”
The conversation was ordinary, but there was something hot going on in the eyes they exchanged. A hot hint that something was going to happen tonight.
After a while, he and his wife tried to relieve their stress.
Mrs. Cheong-hwa, who knew her husband very well, opened her mouth quietly.
“Are you looking for Seon-ah?”
Although it was a subtle movement of the pupils, she did not miss the sight of her husband’s eyes scanning the inside of the building from time to time.
“Ahem. That, that’s right.”
Hyukryunhwan answered in an embarrassed tone.
“I will take the lead. Let’s go together.”
“Is it really okay? Isn’t Seon-ah currently practicing the Blood Tiger Redemption Technique?”
“It’s been a while since I’ve seen you, so I should naturally say hello, right? And it’s okay to meet Seon-ah and talk to her.”
“It looks like Seon-ah is overcoming the side effects of the Bloodthirsty King’s Retribution!”
When Hyukryeon-hwan shouted with a bright smile, Madam Cheong-hwa answered with a trembling expression.
“Yes, that’s right.”
Even she, as a mother, wasn’t sure whether to express that she was overcoming it.
But perhaps because his mind was already full of thoughts about Seon-ah, Hyuk-ryeon-hwan did not notice such a minor change in his wife.
“Go.”
Eventually, Hyukryunhwan followed Madam Cheonghwa’s instructions and moved to meet his daughter, who was now living separately.
This was also due to the side effects of the bloodletting treatment.
I have to live separately from my daughter who is just over ten years old.
‘I have to live in this father’s arms at least until I’m thirty!!’
Hyukryunhwan swallowed back a cry of indignation.
The reason why Hyukryeonhwan was forced into a closed office by his father.
That’s because he was seriously out of shape.
It wasn’t to the extent that it interfered with my daughter’s training.
It was to the point where it interfered with my own training.
Even when he should have been training in the Blood Shadow Eighteen Swords, he would spend his time hanging out with his daughter day and night.
Hyukryuncheon Gang, who had endured his pitiful appearance for so long, finally exploded and threw him into a cave.
Thanks to that, he was able to overcome the wall, but he did not feel gratitude towards his father, Hyukryeoncheon Gang, for that.
‘For my daughter, I’m willing to give up my life!’
It was only thanks to his daughter, Seon-ah, that he was able to overcome the wall.
Because he was determined to see his daughter’s cute face again, he devoted himself to his sword like a madman and eventually climbed over the wall.
Hyukryuncheon Gang was mistaken.
Hyukryun Cheon-gang had hoped that Hyukryun-hwan would let go of his obsession with his daughter through closed-door training, but on the contrary, his condition had worsened.
It was an inevitable misunderstanding. Hyukryun Cheon-gang, the head of the Hyukryun family, viewed his son’s symptoms as being on the same level as the side effects of the Blood Tiger Redemption.
However, Hyukryunhwan’s failure to sell his arms was not due to the influence of magic, but was simply his love for his daughter.
It wasn’t the kind of thing that could disappear just because you couldn’t see the face or because your level of magic had improved. On the contrary, it just got worse.
‘Oops. Control your expression.’
On the way to see his daughter for the first time in over three years, Hyukryunhwan had to keep lowering the corners of his mouth that were agape.
‘If I stand out again, my damn father might lock me in the cave again.’
The reason why Hyukryunhwan, who finished his training, acted blunt and serious until now.
It was purely to avoid being trapped in the cave again.
In order not to disturb his reunion with his daughter, he desperately controlled his expression and headed somewhere.
And the place we arrived at following Madam Cheonghwa’s guidance was a training ground set up by Hyukryun Se on one side.
There was the kid.
My daughter, who had developed red hair due to the influence of the Blood Tiger Tribute.
“Haat!”
Along with the shout, he was swinging his red-tinted fingernails.
The child grew up really fast. Three and a half years is a long time, but how did that little child grow so big?
Before he knew it, tears were forming in Hyukryunhwan’s eyes, but he did not approach his daughter in a hurry.
He even stopped his wife who was trying to call Seon-ah, and just looked at his daughter who was absorbed in training with a proud expression.
And the moment when Hyukryun Seon-a, who had been practicing until her internal energy was exhausted, exhaled deeply.
“Phew.”
Clap clap clap.
I celebrated my daughter’s achievement with a thunderous applause, my palms bursting.
Hyukryun Seon-ah’s pupils dilate as she turns her head at the sudden sound of applause.
“Father?”
Even when his daughter called him “Daddy, Daddy” when she was little, Hyukryun Hwan smiled happily despite the distant feeling he felt when she called him that.
“Hahaha. My daughter has really changed so much in the past three years.”
“It seems like your father has achieved great things as well. I sincerely congratulate you.”
Hyukryunhwan smiled happily at his daughter’s polite answer, which, as expected, felt distant.
“Hahaha. You are truly amazing.”
That was because the polite appearance seemed to be the appearance of overcoming the side effects of the blood tiger tribute.
The daughter, who had now grown to be fifteen, responded to her father’s compliments with an elegant smile.
“I have been training my best to protect my brother.”
“… Brother?”
Hearing his daughter’s expression for the first time in his life, Hyukryun-hwan stopped thinking and turned his head to look at his wife.
“Did we have a son?”
At her husband’s crazy words, Mrs. Cheonghwa let out a deep sigh.
* * *
Madam Cheonghwa returned to Sogajujeon, leading Hyukryeonhwan, who had turned into a stone statue.
And after a while, he told Hyukryunhwa, who had barely escaped from the prison, what had happened.
“The older brother that Seon-ah is talking about is the youngest disciple that the master of Manma has recently brought in.”
“Actually, three years ago, when Seon-ah was learning the Blood Tiger Jeokjo technique, there was an incident where the youngest disciple and Seon-ah became close.”
“Fortunately, Seon-ah didn’t go wild or become possessed by the devil after the youngest disciple entered the magic hall. She just waited anxiously…”
Madam Cheonghwa’s explanation continued briefly and in a heated tone.
There was no choice.
Every time the explanation continued, my husband would fall into a state of obsession again.
Hyukryunhwan, who had managed to hear the entire explanation right before he started coughing up blood, shouted without being able to control his emotions.
“No. How could you let such a lecherous person approach Seon-ah!”
It was a moment that made me look like a lecher.
And when she met her husband for the first time in three and a half years, Mrs. Cheonghwa made a sour expression on her face at his reprimand.
“Are you now reprimanding me, someone who has been absent for over three years?”
Hyukryunhwan instinctively felt that the hot night he spent reminiscing with his wife after three and a half years was in danger of becoming as cold as the ice on the snow-capped mountains.
“I didn’t mean to scold you. I’m sorry. That’s right! I meant your father! What on earth could your father have been thinking, letting such a lecher approach a child suffering from side effects!”
He was a husband who sold his father without any hesitation for the sake of their marriage.
Mrs. Cheonghwa was upset, but she accepted the excuse in order to reunite with her husband whom she had not seen in a long time.
“It was a problem that even Father could not do anything about. The Lord of Ten Thousand Horses took the side of his youngest disciple.”
“!!!”
To her husband’s astonished expression, Lady Qinghua told him anecdotes about the eight Confuciuses.
About what the youngest disciple has accomplished over the past three years and how much Cheonma cherishes him.
Immediately after hearing all that story, Hyukryunhwan spoke with a rather serious expression.
“The great one has become a loser! This is a matter that requires severe punishment for the Eunwi-gakju who serves the Most High, Madam!”
Because it was a cry coming from a mouth that was helpless, it was not convincing.
* * *
A month has passed since Hyukryeonhwan closed and came out.
A lot has happened in the meantime.
He tried to take a bath with his daughter, whom he hadn’t seen in a long time, to reminisce, but his daughter treated him like he was crazy.
He went to his daughter’s residence to talk to her, but was treated coldly. The reason was that the time he went was when Hyukryeon Seon-ah was welcoming Ilmok’s doll.
Well, aside from those minor incidents, I was getting along well with my daughter.
Hyukryun Seon-a would visit Sogajujeon every morning to say hello and greet her parents, and at least she would eat meals with them.
The only problem was that if his training time or the time to greet the doll was interrupted, his attitude would change as if he was dealing with a lifelong enemy.
That is why Hyukryunhwan left Sega today and headed to Pungamjeon.
Today, to meet the youngest prince who graduated from the Magic Academy.
‘It’s all because of that damn youngest prince.’
How dare he seduce my daughter while I was away. I could never let that happen.
‘Until my daughter grows up. Yes, at least until she’s thirty, absolutely no one will be able to surpass my daughter!’
From his eyes, life and magic were gushing out.
