Childhood Friend of the Zenith Chapter 710

After the first day of the finals, it was night.

We came to a guesthouse right after our schedule was over, and it was packed with an unusually large number of people.

“Hey… I think there might be a place to sit.”

Normally there weren’t that many, but perhaps because of Mutuje, there were too many.

“Anyway, since Soju Moyong said he had a seat reserved for him, wouldn’t it be okay?”

Tang Xiaoyeol said with a smile.

right.

Since it was sung by Yonghee Mo, he must have set the stage for it. Because I was a woman who hated doing things in crowded places.

In the meantime, I had to chuckle as I watched Tang So-yeol speak.

“You look in a good mood?”

“yes? Hehe…”

Does winning feel that good? Tang So-yeol seemed to smile much brighter than usual.

It is clearly a good feeling to see the fluttering gestures stand out.

‘…I was a little scared on the off stage.’

The expression on his face when he was adjusting his strength and striking the grenade sword was a look in his eyes that made me feel scared even when I saw him.

I think the Poisonous Woman had that kind of face when she killed Safain or Demon Cultists in her past life.

Even though times have changed, that expression seemed to remain the same. together.

‘I’ve become a lot stronger.’

The party fever was much stronger than I expected. I vaguely expected it to have reached the flower scene. It felt like I had reached a more perfect place than that.

‘You didn’t even use your martial arts skills.’

Poison attack and dark techniques. He did not even use the martial arts taught to his blood relatives in Tangmun. The martial arts she used was….

‘The power of the Dark King.’

It was only the power of the King of Darkness that I had seen before.

A black membrane is applied to create a sense of heterogeneity in the inner space. Just looking at it, it was an uncomfortable force.

the problem is.

‘It’s ambiguous to even call it martial arts.’

The Dark King’s power comes from the fact that he is a half-dragon and the power he gains as a result. So, does that mean that what Tang So-yeol is writing about is the power of the King of Darkness?

Since Tang Xiaoyeol is a human, he cannot use his powers, so how did he use them?

Of course, the level of technology is overwhelmingly higher for the King of Darkness, but the important thing is that it was used.

‘Hmm.’

When I saw it in person, it didn’t feel like I was using power. It wasn’t even martial arts. Then what’s left?

‘Is it witchcraft?’

Tang So-yeol used the power of the King of Darkness as a spell. It seemed right to look at it that way.

Because it is not a power, the performance is not good. It may seem like a martial art, but the method of use and the flow of energy are different. It must be witchcraft.

‘Could it be possible to use the power in comparison to magic?’

If we say that witchcraft was a technology brought by a dragon in the first place, then that is also roughly correct.

“Confucius?”

When I was lost in thought, Tang Xiaoyeol called me. I came to my senses again when I heard that voice.

“Oh sorry. “I was thinking about something else.”

“Are you very tired?”

“I’m not tired.”

What’s there to be tired about? The fight ended in one blow.

“If you’re going to be tired, you’ll be more tired.”

Since he had beaten the grenade sword as hard as he could, his fatigue would have been even higher.

“I’m not that tired either. Rather, I think it’s a little refreshing…?”

“…Uh…yeah….”

Did he release all the things that had accumulated recently by hitting him with a grenade sword? Just as she said, Tang So-yeol looked refreshed.

I tried to laugh inside while looking at that.

“Ugh…”

A groaning sound was heard from behind.

It was Bong-sun. Hearing this, he frowned and asked.

“Why are you doing this again?”

“…Jae, it wasn’t fun….”

Bongsoon says with a sigh in response to the question. I thought I knew what you meant.

‘It was definitely bland.’

Tang So-yeol and I fought against Hwa-gyeong, but Bong-soon fought against an opponent who was just past the climax.

Thanks to this, I was able to defeat my opponent without even having to fight. After that, Bongsun was depressed.

“I would be happy if I won. What are you doing? “If anyone sees it, they will think you lost.”

“I, too, want to fight someone strong…!”

“I’ll see you next time. “It’s noisy, so don’t whine.”

“…Hmph….”

Bong-soon relents as he says it with a frown. Tsk! He clicked his tongue briefly and turned his head.

Then the person next to me looked at me and shook his head.

“Well, you’re eating the kid.”

An artist with black hair. It was a loss.

“What will be gained if you act a little kindly?”

“yes. It adds up. “It’s especially bad for him.”

Even though my temperament wasn’t always kind, I couldn’t do that to Bongsun.

“But, uhm… what happened to Prince Rain?”

I was going to say “elderly,” but I changed my words. Because there were people around.

“huh? “What do you mean?”

“When did you come and do it? “If you come, please at least say something.”

Faezon was also part of the first day of the finals. I didn’t see him and he didn’t say anything, so I thought it was just this one.

As I was getting ready to go after finishing the dance, I heard a murmur coming from somewhere.

It was said that a fighting dragon had done something. At that moment, the loser was coming down from the martial arts system.

“What is there to say? “It wouldn’t have been anything anyway.”

That was also true. So he looked at Paejon and asked.

“Do you really want to win?”

“well?”

Pazon grins at my question. Somehow, the smile was so unpleasant.

“Let’s take a look at the situation and think about it.”

“…”

It means that you have no intention of quietly stepping down. After hearing this, I sighed inwardly.

‘It’s becoming a nuisance.’

This old man doesn’t do anything half-heartedly, so if he’s unlucky enough to meet him on a non-stage, he’ll seriously try to beat him up.

Then there was one thing I had to think about.

‘How should I win?’

Beat the loser. We have to win, so we find a way to win.

That was all.

Around the time I was worrying about arrogance over and over again.

“…over there…it’s Soyeomra and Dokbong.”

“That’s right. “It’s really an anti-inflammatory.”

I instinctively raised my spirits slightly at the sound I heard in my ears.

“Up close, you look younger.”

“Is that young man really Hwa-kyung…?”

“I heard that you are friends with Dokbong, but since we hang out together, it seems like that is true.”

“Then the other two…”

Their voices were full of interest, different from a few days ago. I pay close attention to what is said about me and my party affiliation.

To be precise, I focused on stories about the party affiliation rather than on me.

“I knew it when I saw it from afar, but it sure looks great.”

“Such a slender woman wielding a stray sword like that….”

“A remarkable person was born, regardless of her profession.”

There is a lot of talk about how I defeated Pung…what? As expected, the most talked about issue was the party dissociation.

That must mean it was a powerful appearance.

“Hwa-gyeong is a woman who has not even grown up…does that mean she is at the level of a hundred great experts?”

“This is not the best birth since Shinryong.”

“…Except for the fact that he is a blood relative of the Tang family. “It certainly is.”

“One, there are definitely suspicions that he used witchcraft…”

I heard everything, so I took back my courage. If it were that much, I would have definitely secured the position.

‘The nickname will probably change soon.’

Since the unmanned grenade sword was crushed in front of so many people, the Tang Xiaoyeol cannot be called a simple late index.

So, until the end of the martial arts era, Tang So-yeol’s nickname will also change.

We climbed the stairs, feeling all the eyes on us. Although it was very different from what I had planned, I felt better about the growth of the party spirit than the results of the planned plan.

I don’t know why, but I just felt that way.

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

As I climbed the stairs to the fourth floor, there were significantly fewer customers than on the first or second floor.

Did you say that it is because the third and fourth floors cannot be accessed without certain conditions? As soon as I got to the fourth floor, I was guided by the clerk.

“Oh, it’s here.”

Not long after, Mo Yong-hee is seen waving her pretty hand. Seol-ah Wei was sitting next to him.

From the moment I first came up, Wei Seol-ah was smiling brightly at me.

“You should have eaten first.”

“I just arrived.”

“Don’t lie. There’s no way you were right on time for your appointment. “He must have been here much earlier.”

“…”

Mo Yong-hee closes his mouth for a moment when the truth is pointed out.

Namgungbia was nowhere to be seen. Although he is in good condition, I heard he will rest a little longer.

‘Woohyuk and the princess didn’t come either.’

You two will figure it out. I wasn’t interested up to that point.

As soon as we sat down, the food came out. If you see it coming out even though you never ordered it, it must have already been ordered by Mo Yong-hee.

“I think you were very busy today. Are you okay?”

Hearing Mo Yonghee’s words, he burst into laughter.

“This is a face we all already know?”

“Because it was so noisy. Congratulations to you too.”

“Ah… thank you.”

Party Soyeol reacted to Mo Yong-hee’s congratulations as if he was embarrassed. Unlike the preliminaries, Mutuje’s event had a very large audience.

So Mo Yong-hee probably already has everything figured out.

“I think it was a little too much. Are you okay?”

“hmm? what.”

“Confucius… didn’t you really want to reveal yourself?”

The relationship with Poonglimwitankwon.

The power that was shown briefly there alone was enough to make today noisy.

There were some quiet moments thanks to the party’s anger, but Mo Yong-hee seemed a little worried about that.

“are you okay. “It’s not that I didn’t want to reveal it.”

I was just waiting for the right time to reveal it.

furthermore.

“I had to show it to them anyway.”

Even if it is not the right time, it is difficult to keep it hidden forever. The situation was just right.

“I see…”

After hearing the answer, Mo Yong-hee nodded as if in agreement. Looking at his expression as he nods, he seems to be thinking deeply about something.

If you leave it like that, it will come to its own conclusion.

Leaving Mo Yong-hee-ah lost in thought, he picked up a dumpling and ate it.

Squeak. As I chew my food, water fills my empty glass.

Wei Seol-ah was carefully pouring water. The funny thing was that I tried to hold a party meeting and missed it.

“…thank you.”

“no.”

After pouring my cup, he pours Dang So-yeol, and then pours my cup.

Mo Yong-hee, Pae-jon, and Bong-soon were skipped.

Pae-jon and Bong-soon don’t pay much attention, but Mo Yong-hee’s eyebrows can be seen moving slightly.

Did you two have something?

I felt a strange nervousness.

“…So, you said tomorrow, right?”

So, as if changing the subject, he asked Wei Seol-ah.

“yes! that’s right. “I’m leaving tomorrow.”

Wi Seol-ah, like Seong-yul, will participate in the first round of the non-title finals.

‘Hmm.’

Meng’s Bimuje is probably the real one. Most of the people with high name value were deployed on that day.

There should have been some on Day 1, but if you look at the frequency, Day 1 is superior.

It’s probably not a coincidence. It’s probably something the blind side prepared in advance.

“Okay, work hard.”

“yes! I will definitely win. “Of course.”

Wi Seol-ah smiles and says at my support.

I thought it was cute, so I handed him one of the food on the plate.

‘…But why are you trying to win like that?’

I’m not sure about that, but she looks pretty when she smiles, so let’s move on.

It’s been a while since we all ate together. Lately, it has been difficult to find time to deal with work and practice over and over again.

‘It would have been nice to have Namgungbia as well.’

It’s just a shame. I should at least pack some food and bring it to you when I go.

With that in mind, I finished my meal lightly.

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

A day passed.

I was walking after finishing my morning practice. Today was also the second day of the rain festival, and I happened to have an schedule outside.

A gap between the noisy crowds. I walked there and looked back.

“are you okay?”

“…Yes…”

Behind him, Nangongbia, wearing a cotton yarn, was walking together. It seemed like it had been a long time since the two of us walked like this.

“If you feel uncomfortable, just say it.”

“What if…you say…?”

“I’ll give you a piggyback ride or a hug.”

“Inconvenient….”

“I’m kidding.”

“…”

Nangungbia frowns, a rare sight, at my joke.

That was funny, so I carefully grabbed his wrist. He couldn’t come out yesterday, but they said he could move today, so he brought me out.

If possible, Mo Yong-hee and Tang Xiao-yeol also tried to come together, but since they both said they had schedules, they only brought Nangong Bia with them.

The place we headed to was none other than the place where the rain festival was held.

I headed straight to the stands. There are a lot more people than yesterday. I thought there were a lot of people just on day one.

There really wasn’t a single gap in this day.

“…There are a lot of people…”

Nangungbia spits out the words and comes a little closer to me. I took Namgungbia with me and dug into the place.

I have already received my reserved seat. It is said that seats in the stands are already reserved, but when I asked Mo Yong-hee yesterday, he gave them to me without any hesitation.

When I received it, I asked how I got the reserved seats that ended a month ago.

‘Do you really need to know?’

He said he didn’t think it was necessary to know because he said such a scary thing.

Anyway… it would be nice if I could get it. I barely made it through the crowd and found two seats.

It was the worst seat among the seats.

In the front, there was a place where famous merchants and executives of clans sat. Mo Yong-hee said that he could give her the position if he wanted, but he refused.

‘That’s a bit burdensome.’

A suitable seat is sufficient.

I sat down and quietly looked at the empty non-stage. I could hear murmurs coming from all directions, but I didn’t pay any attention to them.

My eyes were only looking at the off-stage.

Did you see that look? Namgungbia asks me.

“…Seol-ah…do you care much?”

“what?”

I slightly widened my eyes at those words. When I turned my head, Namgungbia’s calm eyes were focused on me.

“What do you mean suddenly?”

“…So…you came today….”

“…”

I couldn’t say no to Nangongbia’s words.

Honestly, is there any other reason to come? I just smiled shyly.

“That’s true. “I didn’t come because I was worried.”

“…then?”

“I came here because I was excited rather than worried.”

Yeah, looking forward to it.

I am worried that Wi Seol-ah goes out on stage alone. However, that was not the essential reason.

Tang So-yeol was like that, and Wei Seol-ah was like that too. Expectations that the children will be different from their previous lives.

They gain wings and fly on their own. I suddenly wanted to see that.

“…”

Nangongbia, who was quietly watching that day, raised her hand and stroked my head.

“what?”

“…just.”

It was strange, but I didn’t reject it out loud.

After waiting for a while, a person appears and hands me something. There were only a few letters, and it seemed like they had probably made the bracket smaller.

I opened it straight away and found the name.

‘Seongyul… seems to have caught something… and Young Poong is there too?’

The name of Hwasan Jeiljae and Sword Dragon Yeongpung was also visible. In addition, there were several Hwasan faction warriors.

I also saw Peng Ujin and Taowang. finally.

“…uh?”

I paused for a moment at the name written on the bracket.

Shaolin’s Yu Yeon versus Shanxi’s Wei Seol-ah.

“…haha.”

I burst out laughing when I saw that there were so many people in the bracket. That’s right, he said with a stern expression on his face.

“These…bastards.”

From the beginning, I could feel Maeng’s manipulation.
