〈 Episode 546 〉 Sword Demon.
-Yul.
A soft and friendly voice.
As always, the old man was smiling at the young man.
-Yul.
The call opened the young man’s eyes, but he could not bear to raise his head.
Because he didn’t deserve it.
-Yul. Okay.
It’s not okay.
The young man said this in a quiet voice.
‘Master… .’
I’m not okay at all.
Thinking about that, the young man lowered his head even further.
I know this is all a delusion.
He knew that those words were also his imagination.
-It’s okay.
It was a voice I could no longer hear.
It was a voice that one should not dare to listen to. The young man kept repeating that.
-Yul.
I constantly hear voices in my ears.
The young man seemed to be unable to bear it and blocked his ears.
-Yul… Yul… .
Sound penetrates the silence and into the body.
The friendly voice became somehow unfamiliar as it was repeated.
This also happens all the time.
Although he had experienced it countless times, the young man never got used to it.
I’m just afraid.
-rate… ah… Yul… .
Something was choking my throat.
The young man opened his eyes without realizing it. Even if he didn’t want to float, he couldn’t stop it.
What I saw after that was:
-rate… iced coffee… .
An old man covered in blood and looking at him with a painful face.
There were eyes glaring at him from all directions.
The young man gritted his teeth and trembled at the sight before him.
He tries to look away somehow, but the old man in front of him grabs the young man’s neck and forces him to focus his gaze.
and.
-How… why… .
-This teacher… Did you kill him? !
The young man blurted out the truth he most wanted to remember.
*
“Wow… !”
He let out a rough breath and stood up.
“Huh… her… Huh… .”
The body that worked so hard to get up was extremely wet.
His back was all wet with cold sweat, and his hair was all damp with sweat.
“flaw… flaw… that… .”
The young man grabbed my shoulder with his hand.
This is to stop your body from shaking.
Of course, even if I did that, the shaking didn’t stop.
The young man, who had been shaking for a while, finally came to his senses and began to look around.
It was a face that did not understand the situation.
at that time.
“Why are you suddenly shaking?”
The young man turned his gaze to the sudden voice.
Not far away, someone was sitting on a rock, looking at the young man.
Holding a dumpling in one hand.
“…”
Looking at him, the young man suddenly stroked his chin.
Because I felt the pain.
When I gently touch it, I can feel that it is clearly swollen.
As I felt the pain, memories also came to mind.
In addition to the actions he was taking, the moment when the author overpowered him.
“…”
The young man rolled his eyes and looked at the other person.
He looks like he just passed the contract limit, and his eyes are fierce.
For some reason, the heterogeneous blue eye inside feels uncomfortable to look at.
The young man asked while looking at it.

“… who are you… ?”
When you ask a question, the other person’s eyebrows move slightly.
It was a strange expression.
It looks like he’s frowning. He seemed surprised.
Watching the subtle changes, the young man calmed his breathing.
‘This place… .’
I exhaled and looked around.
You can see thick forests and rocks.
It seemed like the location was a little far away from where he was.
Did the author bring himself here?
The young man who came to that point asked the other person.
“… Are you the one who came out of the blind?”
“under?”
He snorted when he heard the question. The reaction was that something was absurd.
“It looks like you know that you did something to get chased by Meng, right?”
“…”
After hearing the words, my gaze lowers.
As I said, this is a fact I knew very well.
Jeopuk-.
As I lower my head, I can feel the movement ahead.
It seemed like it was right around the corner.
“What is this guy really? Earlier, he rushed at me as if he was going to kill me. “Why now?”
With a sword full of deadly force, you always rush at me as if you are going to tear me to death.
It seemed strange to be doing this now.
“… sorry.”
In response, the young man apologized.
Everything again.
I couldn’t control my desire and went crazy.
And to offer an unforgivable apology to the other person.
It was an extension of what I had experienced my whole life.
“… Hmm.”
Was the apple the problem? The reaction I felt in front of me was unusually clear.
“Did I get the wrong person?”
The young man raised his head at the sound of words.
You can see Cheongan looking down at the young man right in front of you.
“I wasn’t this kind of bastard to begin with. “It’s a bit annoying when this happens.”
The young man’s eyes widen slightly at those words.
“me… . “Do you know someone?”
“I thought so. It’s a bit ambiguous now. “Really, why are you pretending to be fine?”
“… yes?”
“It’s normal to be crazy about killing people. “Why is it like that now?”
“…”
I bit my lip after hearing this.
It seemed that this person knew about his constitution.
then.
‘Is this the end?’
The young man had a premonition of his end.
He knows that he is a mortal.
He even said in his own words that he was the one who came to catch him.
I have no intention of running away, but I probably won’t be able to run away in the first place.
The young man was already well aware of the difference in power between him and his opponent.
‘I couldn’t even brush it.’
It is an overwhelming defeat.
Although it may not have been in a normal state, it would have been impossible even if it had moved normally.
That was that much of a difference.
‘… It’s actually a good thing.’
The young man smiled.
Yeah, it was better.
I was tired of living.
As time passed, the madness grew deeper, and this cruel body even wanted to eat human death.
I covet and covet.
This is like an appetite that is not full no matter how much you eat.
I endlessly wanted the other person’s death.
It soon ended in the death of my teacher, who was like my father.
‘That’s a good thing.’
The spirit that had gone crazy the previous day came back a little.
Thanks to this, I was able to die remembering my mistakes.
The young man was satisfied with that and gently closed his eyes.
I wanted to prepare my mind.
“Look at your facial expression. “What are you doing?”
The other person, Gu Yang-cheon, who saw this, spoke in an astonished voice.
I still don’t understand the current situation.
Why does that bastard suddenly look resigned?
‘What the f*ck?’
The more I look, the more I don’t know.
Of all the situations Ouyang Chen was embarrassed by right after his return, this was one of the three.
‘What is he?’
What is this quiet-looking guy?
At least he was someone he didn’t know.
‘Obviously, it’s a sword demon, right?’
Not only did it look like it, but the power and appearance it used at that time was the sword demon he knew.
The current appearance is very contradictory to that.
He is the head of the Gwichal Sword Unit, a death unit of the Demonic Cult.
He is a man who has assimilated life to the point that he lives to kill his opponents.
Naturally, his personality was extremely eccentric.
He was famous for his violent and cruel temperament.
‘What is this guy, really?’
The sword demon that Ouyang Chen sees now is quite far from what it was back then.
The figure kneeling with eyes closed is unwavering.
Where did the evil spirit that was running rampant in the guesthouse go, and what remained was a young man with a calm mood.
Doin.
okay.
That is the atmosphere of a Taoist that can often be seen in Taoist warriors.
What is he thinking? He closes his eyes as if he has given up on everything.
Seeing this, Ouyang Chen scratched the back of his head with an annoyed expression.
‘I guess I’ll just stick to the plan.’
The original plan was to capture sword demons that had just begun their activities and turn them into demons.
That’s how you use it until it dies and then throw it away.
That was the plan for Geomma among the ‘things’ to be done in Guangdong.
Now I felt a little out of place.
‘That appearance isn’t really a problem.’
The reason was not because he was different from the sword demon he knew.
This is because of the gestures shown in the guesthouse and the current atmosphere.
If your prediction is correct.
Because I needed to find out a little more about the Sword Demon.
“hey.”
When you call him, he opens his closed eyes and looks at you.
The eyes are still cloudy yellow.
“Let me ask you something.”
I looked at that guy and asked.
“Are you a member of the Kunlun Sect?”
“… !”
Hearing the question, the young man’s eyes widened to the size of a flower lantern.
“Tsk.”
I had to click my tongue when I saw that. This is because she was no different from affirming that she was right.
‘The Sword Demon is from the Kunlun Sect?’
It was something I had no idea about.
It had to be that way.
‘… There wasn’t any sign of that from that guy’s sword?’
The swordsmanship used by the Sword Demon in his past life had no Kunlun school feel to it.
The abundance of pottery possessed by Taoists.
This means that the unique flow of the Kunlun faction’s sword was not visible at all.
That means it was visible in the fight just before.
‘It means that this is being erased intentionally.’
This probably means that he himself erased the feeling of being part of the Kunlun faction.
Regardless of whether it is possible, it must have been done because it was done.
‘If this guy is a sword demon.’
And this wasn’t the only question.
Looking at the guy whose eyes were shaking as if he was surprised, Ouyang Chen continued speaking.
“Why is the Daoist from Kunlun coming all the way to Guangdong and doing this?”
“…”
“As far as I know, Kunlun doesn’t teach you to just go around killing people.”
Kuuk.
The young man who heard this clenches his fists.
“… The Kunlun Sect has nothing to do with it. “I was just wrong.”
Looking at that, Ouyang Chen narrowed his eyes.
“So, you’re the one who went around killing people here?”
“… yes.”
I nodded as I listened to the answer.
The clothes were worn out and had a distinctly shabby appearance.
Even Kkoraji doesn’t want to let anyone know that he is Kunryun.
When looking at this, there was only one conclusion.
“You ran away from home.”
“…”
“Right?”
As I spoke with a chuckle, the young man lowered his head.
“… “It’s not like that.”
“If not that, then what is it?”
“just… . “It was just not a place I could dare be in.”
It’s not where it should be.
The young man really thought so.
After hearing this, Ouyang Chen spoke in a calm voice.
“Did your teacher tell you to do that too?”
The young man lifted his head up at the unexpected words.
“what… !”
“He was talking a lot in his sleep earlier. “I guess you miss Master a lot?”
Did you at least make a sound when you had a nightmare?
The moment the young man was clenching his fists and shaking as if he was embarrassed.
Ouyang Chen looked at him and thought to himself.
‘I guess.’
It seems that all of his predictions were correct.
It’s also surprising that the Sword Demon is a Daoist from Kunlun.
What’s even more surprising is that.
‘That guy is Cheonghae Ilgeom’s disciple?’
A former general of the Kunlun faction, and an old man who is now deceased.
It was a warrior I had encountered at Shinryongwan.
Although it was not a very long relationship, he was also a person who left his own meaning to Gu Yang-cheon.
That kind of Cheonghae Ilgeom.
‘Have you been secretly cultivating a natural instinct?’
Is Sword Demon really a disciple of Cheonghae Ilgeom?
This isn’t certain, but it wasn’t that difficult to predict.
It’s not a different constitution, it’s a natural constitution.
It’s not enough to secretly have a guy like that with me.
A person with the ability to grow to that level.
Even though it was only for a moment, there was even a glimpse of purity in the pottery that showed signs of Kunlun.
If it is not Cheonghae Ilgeom here, it would have to be someone with the same power and influence as him.
In Ouyang Qian’s view, the only such person in Kunlun was Qinghai Iljian.
‘Tsk.’
Thinking about that, I click my tongue.
‘Of course.’
I never thought Cheonghae Ilgeom and Geomma were related.
That’s right.
‘Could it be related to the reason why Cheonghae Ilgeom went to the Demonic Cult in his past life?’
I don’t even know that.
Cheonghae Ilgeom is one of the early devils who committed himself to Cheonma right after he established the Demonic Cult.
Geomma is a person who came in after the death of Cheonghae Ilgeom.
‘Now there’s no way to know.’
Now, the future has already been distorted and Cheonghae Ilgeom has died.
It is said that he died while trying to stop the Red Magic Gate from running away.
‘I didn’t die like that in my previous life.’
Not only has such a deluge never occurred in Cheonghae.
To argue with that, it was wrong from the very beginning when the Red Devil’s Gate broke out during this period.
In that situation.
-I hope you find comfort.
The words he said when he was alive still lingered in my ears.
‘It’s annoying.’
After all, the Sword Demon was connected with the Cheonghae Ilgeom.
In my mind, I just wanted to ignore that and make it a mine and be done with it.
If he was going to become a sword demon anyway, it didn’t matter what Cheonghae Ilgeom’s intentions were.
one.
“They killed nearly ten people in this neighborhood alone.”
There was something that took some time to do that.
“I don’t know how the guy from Cheonghae got here. As long as he has streets, he must have killed a lot in them too. Right?”
“…”
“Otherwise, the smell of blood wouldn’t be so strong.”
The scent of blood emanating from that guy.
Perhaps because they had no intention of hiding it, they had not even washed it properly, so the fishy smell was particularly strong.
That guy killed someone.
In such a cruel way that the smell of blood could be felt.
“… you’re right.”
The guy didn’t deny it.
The young guilt on his face is annoying.
‘At least you shouldn’t have done that.’
I wish that was acting.
Ouyang Chen hid those feelings and continued speaking.
“The funny thing is, I did some research. “The people you killed in this neighborhood all had criminal records?”
“…”
Tuk.
I took out the letter from my pocket and threw it in front of him.
Victims of recent murder cases.
It was a journal containing information about those guys.
“To the rapist. Did you intentionally select and kill only these arsonists?”
“…”
To the question, the guy nodded slightly without giving an answer.
“why?”
“… “I couldn’t kill an innocent person.”
“Whether there is a crime or not. Is it okay to kill people?”
“no. “That too is a sin.”
The firm answer is surprising.
To be honest, Ouyangcheon did not think it was a sin.
I just didn’t think that human life was precious.
The person who gets hit should get hit. Those who die must die.
I thought that was the way of the world.
“But why did you kill him?”
“… Otherwise… . Because other innocent people may die.”
After hearing the answer, Ouyang Chen was silent for a moment and then spoke.
“In your hand?”
Kuuk.
After hearing the words, the young man clenched his fists.
“… yes… .”
Cheonsalseong.
Being born with a destiny to live by killing people.
Some people called it instinct.
Just like eating and breathing.
It’s a natural thing for them.
Just looking at history, I thought he had a really shitty constitution.
Seeing it in person made it look even more like shit.
“So you killed him?”
“… sorry. “I will accept my punishment.”
“It’s not for me to apologize. Then, what were you planning to do in the guesthouse earlier? “What did those gentlemen do wrong?”
“… no.”
I wonder if I can’t control my trembling hands. The guy held his hands together and tried to endure.
“sorry… . Please kill me. I did it wrong… .”
I couldn’t overcome my instincts and tried to kill him.
That’s what the guy admitted.
Is it really true?
Are they sincere when they say they did something wrong?
The guy who only sought out and killed criminals tried to kill innocent people like he did in the inn.
Was it really the first time?
I don’t know. furthermore.
‘I’m not really interested.’
I didn’t think it was that important.
Other than killing someone, it wasn’t a serious matter, at least to Ouyang Chen.
What Guyangcheon sees as important here is none other than this.
‘Does it mean that Sword Demon wasn’t a crazy person from the beginning?’
It felt like I couldn’t overcome my instincts and was on the verge of going crazy.
It’s surprising that he wasn’t like that from the beginning.
‘If it were the guy I knew, I would have just made it mine and been done with it.’
Finding out about these little things made me a little more interested.
No, that may not be the only reason.
-slowly… then… . There will be less regrets… .
These were the words left behind by my fiancee, who went to the North Sea without listening.
It probably means killing something that is impatient.
‘I said I would come this year.’
Two years since I went there.
They said they would return by this year, so it was time to come back.
Maybe it’s already coming.
Thinking of that point, Ouyang Chen stood up.
“If you’re stuck, you have to take it slow. “Because I said so.”
As Ouyangcheon mumbles something unintelligible, the young man makes a questioning expression.
at that time.
“If I have anything to do, I come out quickly.”
When Ouyangcheon suddenly said something, I felt a hint of popularity from somewhere.
Immediately after, several people appear from beyond the forest.
The culprit was none other than Seo-dong, Maeng’s warrior whom Ouyang-cheon met last night.
As soon as Seodong appeared, he took control of Ouyangcheon.
“… See you again. “Daehyeop.”
“yes. Nice to meet you. Thanks to you, I was able to find someone.”
At Ouyangcheon’s words, Seodong’s eyes turned to the kneeling young man.
Yellow eyes and an appearance that seems to have exceeded the terms and conditions.
It was the impression Ouyang-cheon had mentioned at the time.
This means:
“… “A murderer.”
It was said that he was the culprit who had been causing a stir in the Guangdong region recently.
Ignoring Seodong’s reaction, Ouyangcheon opened his mouth.
“Do you have anything to do with me? “I think we ended our conversation last night.”
After hearing the words, Seodong leaned in closer.
He tries to continue explaining, but the person next to him walks up and interrupts him.
He was a middle-aged man with a huge stature.
Looking at him, Ouyang Chen’s eyebrows narrowed.
‘It’s strong.’
Unlike Seodong, a top-level martial artist, I felt a heavy energy.
Hwagyeong.
That man was Hwagyeong’s military officer.
As Ouyang Chen looked at him as if waiting for an introduction, the man smiled slightly and took the gun.
“I’ll see you later. “I say he is a bezoar who is in charge of the Guangdong branch of the Murim League.”
It was a bezoar, Ouyang Chen heard the man’s name and nodded inwardly.
Looking at the level, I thought he wouldn’t be at the level of a great lord.
I didn’t expect the branch manager to show up in person.
‘Well, if you’re at the level of Hwa-gyeong, it’s a shame to remain as a great lord.’
If he was a military officer of Hwa-gyeong, he would be at the level of being eligible for the position of an elder from a prestigious family.
It would be strange for someone like that to take charge of the sword lord.
“I’m sorry for meeting you so abruptly. “I came here in a bit of a hurry.”
Ouyang Chen nodded at Beoseok’s words.
Although it’s only for a moment, that attitude captures the strangeness in Beoseok’s eyes.
“I listened carefully to my subordinate. He helped us catch the red monster?”
“I just caught it because I saw it in passing.”
“… Just pass by the red monster… .”
Wei Shi laughed while listening to Ouyang Chen’s words.
“It’s not easy, but you’re amazing. “So I came here to say thank you.”
“What I delivered was well received. So?”
Get the business done quickly.
It was a word full of such meaning.
Since I’m saying it out loud, there’s no way the bezoar wouldn’t know this.
“Thank you for your help, but I would like to ask about your name.”
“Why the name? “You could just be thankful. Why bother so much?”
“Haha, it wouldn’t be right for us to just send it away. Plus… .”
The bezoar’s eyes become slightly sharper.
“The report said that they even tamed a monster. “Really?”
Hearing those words, Ouyang Chen laughed this time.
“Oh, you’re talking nonsense. How can a person tame a monster?”
“So, I mean. “It’s not something you can believe, but that’s what it said in the report.”
“Then I guess the gentleman who posted it must have had a dream.”
I laughed as if it was fun, but the bezoar didn’t seem to believe me. He just looks at Guyangcheon with a heavy gaze.
Ouyang Chen, who was laughing when he saw that, soon erased his laughter.
“So, what should we do?”
The voice, which had been slightly high, suddenly calmed down.
Immediately the air became heavy.
“Ugh… !”
Seodong, who was next to him, is shocked and steps back. For a moment, I had to feel the illusion of my body being pierced.
It was such intense speculation.
“I told you to just get to the point? “What do you want to do?”
Despite the speculation, the bezoar did not retreat.
His stance was firm, as if to prove that he was an unmanned person in the midst of fire.
“Responding to an unidentified person. As the situation is turbulent, I would like to obtain certain information about you. together.”
The bezoar’s eyes turn to the young sword demon.
“It looks like you have a connection with the murderer who has been making a fuss recently. I’d like to hear about this too. So, if possible, I would like to go to the branch and talk in detail.”
After hearing that, Ouyang Chen said.
“therefore. “Are you telling me to follow you quietly so we can investigate if there is any suspicion?”
“I will serve you respectfully.”
It was a positive tone.
“What if I refuse this?”
“I hope you don’t do that. “If possible, I would like to serve you very politely.”
These words are spit out while holding the sword.
It was no different from a threat.
If you don’t follow me, I will subdue you.
How could one not know that such a meaning is implied?
For some reason, I felt like the number of people brought was much larger.
Not only was there a warrior named Seodong, but there were also some people of a higher level than him.
Are the authors at the level of major shareholders?
‘I feel like I’m being treated like a monster.’
Red monsters have enough power to easily hunt them.
It seems that the momentum he showed to Seo-dong was so great that he was fully prepared.
Ouyangcheon felt this.
“haha.”
I couldn’t hold back the laughter that came out.
“That’s funny”
He did not hide lies in his intentions.
I didn’t laugh because I was angry. I laughed because it was really fun.
Ouyang Chen thought as he looked at the bezoar in front of him.
How can I not laugh?
‘I guess I threw the bait better than expected.’
The thing about sword demons was unexpected, though.
Other than that, everything was going as planned.
How could this situation not be fortunate?
Ouyang Chen recalled this and spoke to the bezoar.
“then.”
At the same time.
“Why don’t you take me somewhere?”
Clap!
The sounds of kicking and kicking were heard from all directions.
