Childhood Friend of the Zenith Chapter 396

Resize text-+=

Immediately after hearing the notice (?) of King Dok’s murder through Dang So-yeol. After I finished eating with my mouth or nose, I immediately moved on.

Even as I walk out on the street, I wonder how to refuse the king’s invitation.

Nothing came to mind that would convince him.

‘It’s really just eating rice.’

I think so.

There was a high probability of that, but I couldn’t help but feel a chill down my spine.

‘I’m really going to try poisoning myself.’

Even though I know that no matter how good a person is at pistil, he won’t do that to me.

As for the rumors that have spread around the world. I was a little anxious because she is famous for being a fool for her daughter.

If it were originally, I would have thought that he wouldn’t do it without thinking because he was a person with four generations of family heads, but…

‘…It’s not like that when I think of Baekcheon Sword Master.’

The four generations of family heads all realized that there was no normality.

I’m sure he wasn’t like that in his previous life.

Maybe I didn’t know Or has something changed?

‘It wouldn’t have changed.’

No matter how many things change, it would be a bit strange that even those things change.

It’s just that I didn’t know that they were originally weird people. Obviously it had to be.

Otherwise, the future of this jungwon… No, it’s a damn future in the first place.

“ha.”

The human beings who get involved are like crazy people, so a sigh comes out of nowhere.

In the meantime, I wanted to omit the meal with the poison king, but I just couldn’t.

It is also true that the ruler of the land of Sichuan, where I wanted to go, was Tang Mun.

Furthermore, it was also the case that Dang So-yeol was excited and went to tell me that I was going to Sichuan.

If you look at it this far, if you just don’t want to see it, you won’t see it.

Even if we didn’t go together, it didn’t matter too much.

Even the king of poison had a different purpose when traveling to Sacheon.

‘It’s a situation where you’re taking a prisoner.’

A prisoner who is said to have been imprisoned in the basement of the Murimmaeng.

The sapa warrior who attacked Shinryonggwan this time. The person called Black Dragon Sword and his gang played a big role in spreading my name throughout the midfield.

It was King Dokwang’s job to arrest them and bring them to the Tang Gate.

When I think of that, I get a little frown.

‘He’s using a bloody method.’

The reason why he dared to take the sinner to Sacheon beyond Hanam.

If you try to recall that, you can’t help but frown.

If it’s for torture, it can be done in Hanam, but there are people who don’t say anything.

Dangmun was a place that made even those guys spit out their words.

Nowadays, Tang Mun is called one of the pillars of the political faction, but the reason why it can be called that is after all. It was also because they were doing the dark and dirty work that the political faction couldn’t do.

Most of the midfielders either don’t know this or are implicitly ignoring it.

I know.

The time when the Demonic Cult occupied Sacheon in the previous life.

Immediately after killing Dokbi with my own hands, I headed to Tang Mun’s basement.

That’s where I went to follow the command of the Heavenly Demon.

I had to see a piece of hell.

If I, who had gone through all the pre-natal battles, could call it hell, it would have been a scene I didn’t want to recall.

There is no way that the owner of the household, the king of poison, would not know about it.

For that reason, I couldn’t help but look at him awkwardly.

The gentle eyes and appearance unique to Tangmun. After seeing the truth buried underground, it looks like a creepy mask.

Murim Maeng knows the secret of such a gate, so he must have asked King Dok to send him to Sacheon.

Looking at it like this, I was convinced again that Moorimmaeng was not a neat place.

‘It’s a matter of course.’

I can’t stand it if it’s as clean as anywhere.

I know that well, but I just hate getting closer to the truth.

‘Tsk.’

No matter how much I said that, I couldn’t refuse a meal with the poison king.

The reasons not to go listed above are just big ones.

The reason I had to go was because it boasted a much larger size than that.

‘Anyway, nothing helps. A f*cking world.’

The most important reason why I go to Sichuan.

It was to obtain the White Horse Stone, a means to make the imperfect Hwagyeong clear and raise the level further.

In order to obtain such a white horse.

None other than the permission of the party was required.

That’s why he couldn’t hastily refuse the king’s invitation to a meal.

If it was originally, I would have asked Dang So-yeol to get over

it somehow…

Unless there was no other way, there would be no choice but to dine with the poison king.

Thinking so, I sighed and continued walking.

I arrived at my destination before I knew it, so I had to focus on the work in front of me.

Dinner with the poison king was dinner. I was in a state of business during the day.

The people blocking the gate check me out and get out of the way.

It seems that he has been prearranged.

I nodded slightly and opened the door.

As he moves, he looks at the hearts of those escorting him.

A white embroidered uniform with wind wave patterns.

Looking at it, it means that they are masters of Kunlun.

Because there was only one munpa with embroidery like that in midfield.

Upon entering through the entrance, similar energy is felt here and there. All of them were the senses of Kunlunpa pottery.

I feel them, but I keep moving.

The reason why I came to a place so full of Taoists.

It was to meet the old man beyond the door in front.

drooling.

Carefully open the door and enter. An old man half-raised in bed greets me.

“You’re here.”

An old man with white hair and wrinkles all over his face.

It looks like a hand has been severed above the wrist on one arm.

Even in the middle of the day, the old man waving at me with his other arm is Baro.

It was a blue sea sword.

****************

Sit carefully in your seat.

Received refreshments and tea provided by the Taoist.

“Have you been well?”

“okay. I’m sorry for calling you when you must be busy.”

“no.”

How soon will we meet?

It’s probably been about a month. Although we faced each other a couple of times after the incident, it was the first time that Cheonghae Ilgum called me directly like this.

The Blue Sea Sword speaks to me with a characteristic smile.

“They say there’s no place I can’t hear your name these days. Is that right?”

“…not so much.”

I spit it out, but it was actually true.

In the back alleys of Hanam, children said they were playing soyeomra and made a game like dog rice cake.

If I caught my eye, I would have put a couple of bumps on the little ones’ heads. Unfortunately, I was not able to see it in person.

If I had found it, I wouldn’t have left it alone.

Whether you know how I feel or not, I let out a bright smile.

“You did a great job. That would not be a bad thing.”

“…yes.”

If it’s good, it’ll look good.

For me, it’s just embarrassing to see that it’s a rumor that was manipulated by Maeng.

This time, I asked Cheonghae Ilgeom a question while hiding the feeling of being shy.

“Are you feeling better?”

“Then it’s perfectly fine.”

“okay.”

Cheonghae Ilgeom spat out as if nothing was wrong, but I couldn’t believe it at all.

Also, one of his wrists was blown off. Seeing her lying in bed since then, it seems that her inner wounds are quite deep.

‘…Moreover, the situation is not very good right now.’

Shenryongguan belonged to Maeng, but it was the Kunlunpa who was in charge of management this time.

So, he couldn’t avoid moral responsibility for the damage he received from the black dragon sword’s attack.

Jiang Chun, the leader, came down from the leader position because of this incident. According to popular rumors.

‘The Cheonghae Ilgeomdo also said that he wanted to come down from the position of a long leader.’

This is not a fixed issue.

Because it was just a rumor.

In addition, Kunlun was on the side of firmly coping with his own after the accident.

Immediately after the accident, the deceased soldiers were gathered and a small market was held.

It was the Kunlun faction who shared the information of each warrior and managed with bets so that the body would not decay until someone from the family or family of the casualty arrived.

I think I’ve fulfilled my moral responsibility with this.

The public eye doesn’t seem to be like that.

An incompetent noble family with the Murimmaeng.

Moonpa with only a façade left behind, and so on.

There were unusually many rumors calling Kunlun low.

Then, as they say, are Qinghai Ilgeom and Kunlun really incompetent?

‘well.’

At least I don’t think so. I just don’t know what other people think.

Thinking that far, I asked Cheonghae Ilgeom first.

“A man of longevity.”

“okay.”

“What is the reason for calling me?”

The main point that suddenly called me. that’s what i was wondering

Hearing my question, the Blue Sea Sword immediately swallowed a sip of the tea.

It seemed like he needed some time to organize his words, so I didn’t urge him either.

That’s how the moment passes. The Blue Sea Sword opened its mouth to me.

“The reason I called you is, first of all… to say thank you.”

“…That’s… isn’t that what you said a long time ago.”

This is what Cheonghae Ilgeom told me right after he came to his senses.

Thank you for saving the children.

At the time, it was something I didn’t want to hear.

This was the case even now.

“Gratitude means continuing as long as the heart remains.”

“I’m fine, so you don’t have to…”

“In addition. I don’t think it’s just expressing gratitude with words.”

The moment I half hated it and tried to ask you not to.

At the same time as the Blue Sea Sword spoke, he took something out of his pocket and handed it to me.

“This?”

It was a round object painted gold.

It’s roughly the size and shape of an yeopjeon. I’m not sure what this is.

As I watch this questioningly, Cheonghae Ilgeom spits out behind the scenes.

“I heard that you are heading to Sacheon in a few days. Is that right?”

“yes? Oh yes that’s right.”

where else did you hear that?

I don’t know why, but I felt like everyone I met knew that I was going to Sacheon.

“This… is a token of my gratitude that I can give you. You said you were going to Sacheon, so I prepared it, so please accept it.”

Does it mean that it is of use in Sichuan?

If so, it might be better to accept it. The reason for wanting to receive this was the problem.

“I cannot accept this. Jang Moon-in.”

I didn’t deserve this stuff.

There were a lot of people who died because of the circumstances that had changed because of me.

Seeing them, he got angry and killed the Safa guys.

Who survived because of it?

They are just people who should have lived. Conversely, those who died are those who should have lived.

Under such circumstances, do I deserve something like this?

I thought no.

Maybe because of my answer, there was a moment of silence.

Looking at my eyes like that, the blue sea sword said while sweeping my beard with the other hand.

“There is a feeling of guilt for no reason.”

“…”

“What makes you so small.”

Cheonghae Ilgeom asked, but I couldn’t answer.

to anyone

Did he notice that I wasn’t going to give an answer?

Cheonghae Ilgeom exhaled air from his nose and calmly opened his mouth.

“I don’t know why, but if you don’t want to accept it as a token of gratitude, just accept it as a gift.”

“…Are you talking about a gift?”

“Do you remember when I said I favored you in the past?”

“yes.”

Around the time when he entered Shinryonggwan and faced the Blue Sea Sword separately.

what he said to me

that you favor me

“Then take this as such a proof.”

“one.”

“Uh huh. Are you going to embarrass the old people even more?”

“…”

Cheonghae Ilgum said with a slight frown. After seeing it there, I silently picked up the gold plate and put it into my bosom.

Only after doing that, the Blue Sea Sword smiled again as if he was satisfied.

“Keep it with you and use it when you arrive in Sacheon.”

“If use. Where on earth do you mean to use it…”

I asked, and the Blue Sea Sword tells me the location.

“…!”

The moment I heard it, I couldn’t help but open my eyes wide in surprise.

That would also be the location where Cheonghae Ilgum told me to use the gold plate.

It was because it was the same location as the White Horse Stone.

‘How on earth?’

The moment I looked at it in bewilderment as to why Cheonghae Ilgeom was suddenly talking about ‘there’.

The old man said to me with a strange expression.

“I hope this will be of some help on your way.”

“…”

I had to slightly bite my lips to see the pale but deep sincerity in the eyes of the Blue Sea sword.

Did you check my expression? Cheong Hae Il-geom, who was watching, smiled and added a word.

“Please come to your comfort. Where you are comfortable and not others.”

be comfortable

I don’t know in what sense he expressed his comfort to me, but for me it’s just words that are far from reaching me yet.

“…thank you.”

Even so, with a little bit of heart, I took an example to the Blue Sea Sword. Because I didn’t have the confidence to ask what you meant.

The blue sea sword stroked my hair briefly as if it had been done with it.

A lot of thoughts run through the old man’s words. It’s comfort…

It’s still a long way off, but someday.

It was a wish that I too would reach it someday.

where that comfort is.

******************

It was evening like that. I had to frown as I recalled the words of the Blue Sea Sword.

‘f*ck the comfort.’

I realized once again that the words did not suit me.

The table, which is set so that the upper legs are broken, is appetizing to anyone.

I hadn’t eaten a single bite.

Because that wasn’t the case.

A middle-aged man holding a teacup in front and looking at me.

The owner of the gate, Dokwang, tells me.

“I’ll ask again, Gongja Gu.”

Fortunately, the food didn’t seem poisonous, but the ardent desire in the man’s eyes was rather choking me.

When you are barely holding back your sleep.

The poison king told me.

“Are you willing to take our Soyeol?”

then you realize

This position was much more burdensome than I expected.
