Episode 81. wind blows (1)
“… … So, the number of deaths on the Hwanhuiwon side was five, including the temporary captain, and the number of deaths on the three guards was twenty-two. The total death toll is twenty-seven.”
Mudam’s expression as he reported was still blunt.
Lee Cheon-sang, who was looking at the window with a drowsy face, asked as if tossing it.
“Where?”
“As a result of analogy based on the traces of the battleground and the testimonies and reports of demons, it is estimated to be the Nanmanyasugung Palace.”
He said it was an estimate, but Lee Cheon-sang thought the Beast Palace was certain.
Mudam did not say that he was certain when he was angry. It was to prevent himself from losing his cool because he was swept away by his emotions.
So the Beast Palace would be right. In addition, Mudam is currently very angry.
“It’s a beast palace… … .”
Lee Cheon-sang shook his head.
“I was bitten by a dog next door that I didn’t even pay attention to.”
“… … .”
“The stuff?”
“They say they recovered everything and returned.”
“All right. Any other reports?”
“yes.”
“Okay. I’ll just go back.”
Mudam, who bowed slowly, took a polite step back.
In Daejeon, where Mudam had gone out, the corners of Lee Cheon-sang’s mouth went up in an arc as he was sitting alone at Taesa’s chair and looking at the window.
“Third, is it you?”
Currently, Shingo is not living a strong life. However, the fear of the four letters of Heavenly Demon Godism still swept through Gangho.
The Beast Palace touched such religion. If I hadn’t had the power to wipe it out without leaving any evidence, I wouldn’t have even thought of touching it.
It’s not one or two, but the Ho Court’s three. If more than half of the three members returned alive, it would be one of them.
Either the Beast Palace went crazy and messed with Shinkyo for no reason, or there was a master enough to defend against the Beast Palace’s overwhelming power.
‘Sirang’s spirit disappeared at some point. It looks like the third sneaked out and came back.’
There was a subtle interest in Lee Cheon-sang’s indifferent eyes.
“He’s a fun guy.”
No Mine in the school would dare to think of going out in secret.
I asked Mudam if he had anything else to report, because I thought that at least he would know if he had reported in advance.
Well, if I had known that the third was out, I would have said it right away.
Whoops.
The window sill shook.
A subtle chill seemed to emanate from the young wind, tinged with the smell of blood.
“I’ll have to pour you a drink in a while.”
* * *
“I’m sorry, Lord Won.”
Soyeonshim let out a sigh.
“How can you say you’re sorry?”
“If I had paid more attention… … .”
“Over twenty of the three guards have died. That must mean that the enemy’s offensive was fatal.”
The coin didn’t say anything. She knew that she would not blame herself, but that did not make her sorry feelings go away.
So Yeon-shim stroked her shoulder.
“The people who really should be angry are the ones who attacked us, right? Besides, you have completed your mission. What I will give you is comfort, not punishment.”
“… … .”
“Anyway, that’s amazing. How could you have recovered your martial arts already?”
How can I not know the heart of So Yeon-sim, who is trying to change her words?
Joohwa lowered her head and said.
“It’s all thanks to the Three Gongja. Before the incident, I had almost seventy percent of my martial arts recovered.”
“Confucius’ ability is truly mysterious.”
Apart from the intention to turn the words around, So Yeon-shim was genuinely surprised. It was a different matter than the depth of force.
In the first place, the martial arts itself was miraculous that it rapidly normalized the body that had been devastated by the main fire.
Isn’t it common knowledge that no matter how good Yo Sang-gyeol is, it is difficult to surpass the realm of medicine.
However, Xi Liang, of course, knew such mysterious martial arts, and even restored more than half of the coin’s martial arts in ten days.
‘What the heck, the Three Gongs… … .’
The more you hear and the more you know, the more amazing you are. It was to the point where I couldn’t decide whether it would be a benefit or a loss to have a relationship with someone like that.
“and… … .”
“huh?”
“If it had not been for Confucius, we would have been annihilated.”
So Yeon-shim nodded.
“Yeah, that’s right. Confucius’ martial arts are amazing, and your martial arts must have been of great help.”
“no. I was of no help.”
“huh? What do you mean?”
The coin gave a detailed account of the situation at the time.
So Yeon-sim’s eyes trembled with surprise.
“You said that Confucius killed all of those monsters?”
“yes.”
“Monsters who made demons over 80 helpless? alone?”

“… … That’s right.”
back.
Power went into Soyeonsim’s fist.
There’s no way the coin would lie about something like this. However, it was hard to believe because it was so far from common sense.
“If it’s real… … .”
“… … .”
“It means that Confucius’ martial arts are not lacking even compared to the top 10 of the 100 Eight Demons.”
The highest leader of the Protestant religion, excluding the religious leader, was the old master of the Senate.
However, there were many adherents of Protestantism besides them.
Even though it was a single armed group, the reason why it could stand shoulder to shoulder with the federations was because the high class of Protestantism was so thick.
Baekpalmajang was the vanguard representing the armed forces of Protestantism. In particular, the top 10 of them were super-professionals who were ready to aim for the position of the next old master.
Of course, their martial arts were not at the same level as the current Old Daemazon. However, it meant that he was a strong person who showed that much potential.
“Is it possible that a person in his mid-twenties, who even lost all his martial arts due to the infidelity of the coin, was resurrected in one year and reached the same level as him?”
Hearing the words he mumbled to himself, So Yeon-shim felt a sense of dread.
‘Is that possible?’
It is impossible even if someone supports it behind the scenes. Even if the Three Gongja were geniuses, it was absolutely impossible.
‘No, it’s possible.’
So Yeon-shim bit her lip.
I know one person, no one person, who is the only one who can make that possible.
‘… … Teacher.’
Heavenly Demon, Two Heavenly Statues.
If he, the pinnacle of Protestantism at the time, had personally stepped forward, if he had forcibly raised the martial arts of the Three Gongs, it would have been possible enough.
‘What if the headmaster really intervened?’
if so… … It was as if the next successor had already been chosen.
“Wonju?”
So Yeon-sim, startled, looked at the coin.
A look of concern flashed across the blunt face of Joo-hwa.
“Are you all right?”
“Yeah, it’s okay. To think for a moment.”
Soyeonsim pulled Joohwa’s hand.
“let’s go. You must be tired from the journey, so let’s have a meal together.”
“Yes, Lord Won.”
Little Yeonsim who takes the coin.
A look of determination showed on her face.
‘I’ll see you again soon.’
* * *
“I guess so.”
Ichigo sighed.
“How are you? Are there any other injuries?”
Ma Dong-pil lowered his head.
“it’s okay.”
It won’t be okay. My prayers were a little unstable, probably because I couldn’t completely control my inner wounds.
“Seeing that he hasn’t recovered even after using the genus name, it must have been really dangerous.”
“Oh, I didn’t write the genus name.”
“Yes?”
When Ma Dong-pil explained the situation, Lee Gun-seong nodded.
“There must have been a reason for that. Get one when you leave the room later. You will get well soon.”
“It’s okay, Captain.”
“Don’t be stubborn, take it.”
“… … yes.”
Lee Geun-seong glanced at the window.
In the gymnasium beyond the window, guards who had not been assigned duties were sweating and training.
“To protect someone is like dying in someone else’s place.”
“… … .”
“That is the essence of what we do. We are always keepers. so it’s hard The warriors who are close to death are probably the escort warriors.”
“… … .”
“Hana escort warrior is also a person, isn’t it someone’s colleague?”
A look of bitterness appeared on Lee’s face.
“We are the only ones who will cry for them, but we still have to sharpen our knives today to go protect others.”
“sorry.”
“… … .”
“My skills are not enough, so the crew members… … .”
“You must apologize. Whatever the reason, as the captain in charge of the escort team, there is a part of me that needs to take responsibility.”
Ma Dong-pil lowered his head.
“of course. I will accept any punishment.”
Ichigo was silent for a moment.
Still fixating his eyes on the window, he opened his mouth a moment later.
“No matter how you look at it from the top, I think it should have gone with me. Of course, I know that these regrets mean nothing.”
“… … .”
“Don’t think that your skills are lacking. I wouldn’t have put you in the position of leader if I thought you were lacking in responsibility, ability to carry out duties, and lack of martial arts.”
“It just has no face.”
Ichigo sighed again. Really, today I felt like I wouldn’t be able to breathe.
“I will personally visit the bereaved families of the dead.”
“No, chief. Since they are my members, I myself… … .”
“This is something I have separately reported to the Lord Hobeop.”
Ma Dong-pil bit his lip. He should be responsible for himself, but he felt bad when he said that the senior took part of the responsibility.
Ichigo stood up from his seat.
“You don’t have to worry too much. Not because I think of you, but because I think I should go and bow my head.
I’m the one who coordinated the mission in the middle, so I’ll take responsibility.”
Neither comforting nor sarcastic. Lee Gun-seong really thought that this situation was his fault.
Ma Dong-pil was even more apologetic because he knew that.
and was upset Just like when he was confused when he saw that the Three Gongja-nim had solved everything, he could still feel his own inadequacies.
“I will go with you.”
“I can’t.”
Ma Dong-pil felt puzzled. You’re not saying don’t do that, are you? What does it mean?
“I intend to punish you as the acting Wonju. Until the punishment is over, you should take your hands off the Ho Court for the time being.”
“… … !”
“It will probably take quite a long time.”
Ma Dong-pil lowered his head again.
“I’ll take it sweetly.”
“Good. Governor Lee Wang’s position has become like this, so let’s deal with it right away.”
Ichigo stood up from his seat.
“Ma Dong-pil, the third chief of the Ho Court, will be suspended indefinitely after this time.”
I knew I would be honest. But I didn’t know it would be indefinite.
A little surprised, but Ma Dong-pil agreed.
It is a sin of not properly managing the crew and a sin of not protecting the escort target. It is not an indefinite suspension, but there is nothing to say even if he is asked to resign from the leadership position.
“I give a secret order to Ma Dong-pil, who has been suspended, as Won-ju’s acting agent. Until this secret order is fulfilled, Ma Dong-pil cannot be reappointed as the leader of the Ho Court.”
“… … .”
“As of this time, Ma Dong-pil is selected as Sam Gongja-nim’s personal escort.”
Surprised, Ma Dong-pil looked up at Lee Gun-seong.
“Just as the suspension period is indefinite, the period of fulfilling the secret duty is also indefinite, so Dong-pil Ma must do his best in his duties so that there will be no mishaps like before.”
“Joe, captain!”
“Above, the contents of the disciplinary action against Ma Dong-pil, the leader of the three, are completed.”
“… … .”
“Go. It’s something that I wouldn’t dare to ask of Confucius as a demon of our school, but… … Learn a lot from him and come back.”
Ma Dong-pil’s eyes trembled.
Ichigo smiled.
“You must come back.”
