Side Story Episode 11. Trouble is in the heart (1)
“Ohh?”
Sogong’s eyes sparkled.
“Tumajang is a place that needs to disappear… … “That’s what he said.”
“okay.”
Doheon shook his head.
“I haven’t actually talked to him much. Maybe five days at most? But I felt it. “Even if lightning falls from the sky, this guy’s mentality won’t change.”
“There are no absolutes in this world.”
“That’s right. “I’m reflecting a lot.”
“But what… … .”
Sogong scratched his cheek.
“I’m a bit shocked too. I’m not even two days old, let alone five days old. “He didn’t even try to create a passionate relationship like yours.”
“… … .”
“I didn’t know he would say that either.”
Doheon said as he filled his glass.
“No matter what, it seems like I saw and learned a lot there.”
“Where are the survivors? “I heard you first learned martial arts half a year ago?”
“That too.”
“Looking at his personality, I thought he would be a reckless person who attacked head-on without any complications, but after killing all the attackers, he even pretended to be dead and buried the crime… … .”
Sogong giggled.
“That guy seems to fit our unit differently than his personality. “It’s much more like an assassin than sneaking in with stealth techniques and all that and slitting people’s throats.”
Doheon chuckled.
“Yes, that’s also a surprising aspect.”
“so.”
Sogong also poured his own glass and asked.
“What are you going to do now? Are you really trying to raise it?”
“well.”
“Well, really people. After it has aged well for half a year, it is time to start cooking it. “There’s something to catch.”
Doheon, who coolly emptied his glass, frowned slightly.
“There is nothing on my mind. “He’s the problem.”
“That guy? why? “You don’t want to be at Gwangmadae?”
“… … .”
“… … Crazy, really?”
“I don’t know yet. But he didn’t seem happy about coming to the main university.”
Doheon smiled sheepishly.
“I don’t know if I feel that way.”
“Hmm.”
Sogong, who was thinking deeply about something while sipping his drink, blurted out.
“Even though it was a bit frustrating, it felt pretty good, right?”
“who?”
“you.”
“… … .”
“It’s not like he’s trying too hard to hide it, so I guess your eyes aren’t wrong.”
“I don’t know. “I plan to talk about it tomorrow.”
“By the way, it would be great luck to train a guy who has mastered a handful of martial arts skills to be a member of the Gwangju Demon Corps, but you don’t like that?”
“Well, that’s enough of the story.”
Doheon asked, filling his glass again.
“What about there?”
“Our side? “What about us?”
“A guy named Yuisang.”
Sogong grinned.
“I heard you’re a genius?”
Doheon looked at Sogong in surprise.
“genius?”
“Even geniuses are not ordinary geniuses. “Whether it’s a magic skill or a martial art from his mother’s side, if you teach him, he absorbs it quickly. I wonder if there are people like this in the world.”
There was surprise on Doheon’s face.
Although he sometimes behaved rudely, Sogong was a person who distinguished between construction and construction more clearly than expected.
In particular, since he was also a great man who risked his life with a single sword, he was more sincere than anyone else when it came to martial arts.
For him to say something like this, it seemed clear that he was truly gifted with great talent.
“To be honest… … “As far as simple assassination skills go, they’re not inferior to our kids.”
“… … !!”
Doheon’s mouth opened blankly.
“Is that possible?”
“It looks like he has been working in that area since before he was captured by your unit. However, they have only a limited amount of internal strength and have never trained it as fiercely as we did. But even so, his ability to kill people was top-notch.”
“… … .”
“It wasn’t just luck that I was able to kill your crew half a year ago.”
Doheon’s eyes deepened.
At that time, because of the atmosphere of the unit, he was curious about the situation of Yu Isang, who was both a victim and a suspect. He never thought about anything else.

But hearing it like this, I definitely understood.
The reason Yu Yi-sang was able to kill Myeong-han was not due to luck or anger, but pure skill.
“That’s amazing.”
“At best, I would consider myself to have obtained a useful hand, but it’s so great that I’m a little scared now. “It doesn’t look like a vessel that should be under me.”
“I wonder more about that. “He must be full of hatred for our school, so he manages to receive teachings from you?”
Sogong grinned.
“My skills in persuading people are at the level of a teenage devil, I am.”
“ha ha ha.”
The two people raised their glasses.
Before clinking glasses, Sogong said with a meaningful look on his face.
“Even though you are still a young chick, you have also acquired a good talent, so raise it well. Depending on how you raise it, it can either be an ordinary assistant or a new recruit who will shine the light on the world.”
Doheon shrugged his shoulders.
“I don’t even want to go that far.”
“I’m telling you to look at it properly. “I know that the members under your command are deeply loyal, but if you tell them to follow at a critical moment, how many of them will follow?”
“… … .”
“No one can change the world alone. In that case, it would be good to start a new relationship with those who have potential.”
Sogong narrowed one eye.
“It’s not like we’re going to win in one or two years, right? “The people, the unit, and this world.”

The next night.
Lee Cheon-sang, who was flying in his residence, slowly opened his eyes.
Slurp.
As I took off the blanket and got down on the floor, I heard a familiar voice outside the door.
“Are you awake?”
“Please come in.”
Grumble.
The door opened and Doheon appeared.
He smiled sheepishly.
“I was late to come to you because I was busy with work. “I’m sorry.”
“It’s okay.”
“Have you eaten?”
“I did.”
At best, it was just beef jerky and steamed dumplings made with grains, but that was enough for Lee Cheon-sang.
In fact, it was no exaggeration to say that it was a sumptuous feast compared to the fighting arena. Moreover, there was a time when he lived in the mountains by catching and eating animals. Although there were better foods, there was nothing he couldn’t eat.
“If it’s okay, get some fresh air with me.”
Doheon turned and walked away without even hearing an answer.
Lee Cheon-sang’s eyes landed on Do-heon’s waist. There was a long sword hanging on his belt.
In the meantime, Doheon did not go around with weapons. At least that’s what he saw.
Lee Cheon-sang followed him without saying a word.
After a while.
“Is the view nice?”
Saaaaaa.
The bamboo leaves swayed in the blowing mountain wind.
The wind was cool and the moonlight was warm. The atmosphere created by the bamboo piled up around the area was amazing.
“There are several bamboo forests like this at our school. “It’s the same here in the inner city, and also in the outer castle where Tumajang is located.”
Lee Cheon-sang looked around.
Although there were bamboo everywhere, the place where they stood was a fairly large open space.
It was dark so it was hard to see, but I could see footprints that were quite deep. It seemed like it was being used as a training ground for someone.
And the probability that that someone was Doheon was very high.
“I don’t know what mountain you live on, but the view of our school is the best in the world. “It is collectively called Hundred Thousand Mountains, but it is different here and there.”
“… … .”
“That’s why I like our school. “Those scenery, which are similar yet evoke completely different emotions, are like the faces of our people.”
Under the particularly bright moonlight.
Doheon’s face became both vibrant and shadowy at the same time. At least it seemed that way in Lee Cheon-sang’s eyes.
“I want to ask you something.”
“… … .”
“You may have learned a lot while working at the Tuma Stadium for half a year, but I have yet to see the most important part of you.”
“… … ?”
“purpose.”
Lee Cheon-sang’s eyes deepened.
“Purpose, or goal. “I guess you could call it a dream.”
“… … .”
“What do you want to be? “How do you want to live?”
Lee Cheon-sang opened his mouth.
“I’m learning about the world.”
The unique, languid yet indifferent voice somehow suited the bamboo forest well.
Doheon shook his head.
“Didn’t you remove the thousand-character pattern?”
“That’s still… … .”
“It’s just a part of it. However, the emotions of the human group learned in the mud pit where all human vices are concentrated, called the Toumajang, can be said to be the appearance of humans all over the world.”
Doheon’s eyes lit up.
“I guess you understand?”
“… … .”
“Learn about life, learn about the world… … It was something you needed half a year ago. It served its purpose well. But now things have to change.”
“… … .”
“Learning about the world is basic. The reason is that although human nature does not change, the world always moves forward. “Even at this very moment, we are experiencing change.”
“… … .”
“Set clear guidelines for your own life, right here. “Learning about the world is directly connected to an individual’s future.”
Lee Cheon-sang, who was looking at Do-heon blankly, said.
“I don’t have any grand dreams. “I don’t know if it will be there in the future.”
“I guess so now.”
“I don’t see why it’s necessary to set a goal.”
“Life is… … .”
“But Toumajang must disappear.”
“… … ?”
Doheon’s eyes widened slightly.
Lee Cheon-sang continued.
“I said that people are people who cannot understand others, even if they are the same person. “That’s who I am now.”
“Me too.”
“But I know it’s wrong.”
“error?”
“Tumajang is wrong. “It’s a place that makes people sick.”
A faint smile appeared on Doheon’s face.
‘I knew it.’
Half a year ago, Lee Cheon-sang wasn’t wrong even though he said he couldn’t feel emotions.
He went to repay the favor to the person who gave him rice balls and water as he was dying.
Furthermore, he accepted a request from his benefactor that no one else would. It was a request that went beyond common sense, but I did it because I thought it was a favor I deserved.
He even said that he would go to the Heavenly Demon Church and look after the grave of his adopted father who passed away.
These are not words or actions motivated by clear emotions, such as sadness or affection. However, he was not motivated by emotion; all his words and actions were sincere and came from the heart.
Emotions and mind are one and yet separate.
Lee Cheon-sang doesn’t think of the two together and doesn’t ‘operate’ that way.
That’s why I’m always sincere and don’t feel guilty, neither sad nor happy.
However, he had a clear standard.
There was a clear indicator that allowed the merely ‘functioning’ mind and body to move forward correctly.
“Do you want to get rid of Toumajang?”
“It’s a place that needs to disappear.”
“Do you want to destroy it with your own hands?”
“I just think it’s a place that should disappear.”
“Do it yourself if you want. we can’t “At least for the time being.”
“… … ?”
“However, if you want it, you have to have strength.”
A subtle question appeared on Lee Cheon-sang’s face.
Doheon smiled. As expected, this guy was not without emotions. Doesn’t facial expression come out instinctively?
It’s just that I didn’t know how to feel.
widely!
A long sword was caught in Lee Cheon-sang’s hand.
Doheon, who threw the knife at him, slowly turned his neck.
“You have to be strong to get what you want. “Whether it’s an order, a deviation from the standard, or whatever.”
“… … .”
“I want to see your level. “I want to see everything you have in martial arts right now.”
Doheon’s mood changed in an instant as he cleared his throat.
hook!
The sky of the beautiful bamboo forest seemed to be turning red little by little.
Doheon’s eyes turned red.
“come.”
The tone of speech changed momentarily.
Lee Cheon-sang, who was looking at Do-heon, held the hilt of the sword with his right hand.
Slurp.
martial arts,
