Episode 82. the wind blows (2)
“Gongja?”
“… … .”
“… … .”
“… … .”
“I… … Confucius, I brought you a meal.”
“Yeah, leave it there.”
Lying on the bed with the blanket pulled over his head, Seo-ryang’s voice sounded very sad.
Aenghwa’s face became tearful. From the time he returned until now, Confucius hadn’t eaten a single meal.
I couldn’t help but worry. But since you don’t even show me like that, I won’t be able to talk to you easily.
In the end, there was only one thing she could say today.
“… … I’ll come pick it up later.”
drooling.
Even though Aenghwa had gone, Xiliang was still lying still, covered in a blanket, motionless.
After sitting by the window and yawning profusely, Geum-ho slowly approached Xu-liang’s bedside.
“Keeing.”
“… … Go and play.”
“yes!”
“… … .”
“yes! yes!”
“Go and be surprised.”
“yes!”
Kumho pressed Xiliang’s head with his paw. It was quite cute, but for some reason it seemed to be reprimanding Xu Liang.
Seo-ryang, who had been tossed around by Keum-ho’s forepaws for a long time, pulled back the blanket.
“why!”
“yes!”
Kumho sat down on the bed and waggled his tail.
Seo Liang frowned.
“Now you know how to eat well. Your share has been prepared there. Go eat.”
“yes!”
“He is so terrifying.”
Seo Liang, grumbling, completely removed the blanket and got down from the bed.
There is no way that a master like him would have any problems with his body if he starved for two days. However, he seemed to be worried about something, and his face was quite thin.
“Now, eat.”
When I handed out the boiled meat, Kumho ran and chewed it as if he had been waiting for it.
Seo Liang grumbled.
“How could a guy who knocked out all the monsters with one roar bother people like this? Now it’s up to you to take care of everything. okay?”
Kumho did not respond to Xu Liang’s words. He only eagerly accepted and ate the meat that Xi Liang handed him.
Xu Liang snorted as if he was dumbfounded.
“You know what I understand? Do you know how to pretend you don’t know like before?”
Kumho’s ears twitched slightly. But that’s all, there was no reaction.
“Because I’m a real ghost.”
Xu Liang put his chin on his chin and stroked Keum Ho’s head. Kumho seemed to like that hand, and he rubbed the meat even harder.
“Still, that bastard, it’s nice to eat something cool.”
Geumho, who had been chewing on the meat for a long time, wiped his mouth with his tongue and sat down to look up at Seoryang.
“… … .”
Seo Liang looked down at the golden lake and sighed.
“Okay, okay. I was just trying to move a bit.”
lively.
Kumho approached Xu Liang’s elbow and lay down on his back. He seemed to have eaten quite a bit, judging by his spiritedness.
Xu Liang was lost in thought as he scratched Keum Ho’s stomach with his index finger.
‘Damn it, nothing special.’
I didn’t think the odds were high.
But it was the first outing. As much as I had high expectations, I was very heartbroken.
It would have been nice if I could have left Cheonma Shinkyo through this one outing.
“Sibal, look at the branch? Gather information? Do you remember the street corner? It’s dog shit, man.”
I heard information about Jeong Il-ryong from Ma Dong-pil not long after leaving.
The moment I heard that information, nothing caught my eye. I was just busy dealing with my hatred for him, my deep-seated resentment, and my rising murderousness and anger.
It was fine until I smashed Jung Il-ryong.
He was genuinely relieved, felt proud, and a lump in his chest exploded! I felt like I was being pierced.
But after that it was a problem.
“… … Did you come back feeling ashamed and being treated as a burden?”
Xie Liang tousled her hair.
“Ah, you stupid bastard! I thought I was a little better, but I was looking right in front of me again!”
Geumho rolled up in fright at the dust that spewed out.
After blaming himself for a while, Xi Liang let out a deep sigh.
“It’s okay, what’s the point of self-torturing now? The ship has already left, but let’s shake hands.”
know. I know, but my heart is very cold.

To be honest, I had regrets, but there was no reason to fall into self-torture.
It can’t be said to be bland, but Xu Liang was not a sensitive person to the point of being stuck on these things for days.
There was another reason why he lay in bed for two days and immersed himself in self-torture.
‘I’m out of control.’
The moment I heard the three characters named Jeong Il-ryong, my eyes and ears went blind.
I didn’t know it at the time, but thinking back, I was terrified. She heard the name of an enemy she might meet or pass by, and she had to deal with her emotions for days.
In other words, the will to kill the enemy preceded the desire for freedom.
‘It shouldn’t be like this.’
Even if he secretly escapes from the Heavenly Demonic Church, is it possible to live a normal life as a strongman?
The Cheonma Shinkyo is in the south, but the Uicheon League is in the north.
His important safehouses are also in the north, and in order to finally escape to the north, he had to pass through the territory of the Uicheon League.
Of course, it doesn’t matter if you pass by without knowing.
But can you really do that? Can you control this anger that reacts immediately when you hear the enemy’s name?
if, very if.
What would I do if I heard the news of the Uicheon Lord while passing through the North?
Perseok!
My hand gripped the table, without realizing it, was getting stronger. The edge of the table broke and fell.
“… … Even then, you can’t ignore it while crying out for freedom.”
Jeong Il-ryong was one of the enemies, but he was not the decisive culprit in taking his life. Rather, looking back on the past, he had dozens of people he wanted to kill more than that guy.
Burr.
As I recalled each of their faces, Maggie jumped. In order to control the wriggling demon, I had to exert all my strength to the point where my eyes were bloodshot.
Seo Liang took a deep breath.
“Let’s calm down.”
He just lived that way, and his personality didn’t suit Salsu. But he has somehow managed to control his emotions, at least in the past.
But what now?
‘I can’t get better than the past, but I can’t regress, bastard!’
It could have been because he learned magic. No, that would be the biggest reason.
But that too is just an excuse. In the end, it is always me who moves the body and emotions.
It was a matter of deep self-reflection that I couldn’t control my emotions so much because of magic.
growl.
Xi Liang looked down at the ship. Geum-ho, who was wrapping himself around him, also glanced at Seo-ryang.
“… … Shit, I guess I got hungry again.”
Well, a human who could easily feed three or four people at each meal didn’t drink a sip of water for two days. Of course, the boat couldn’t help but clamor.
Xu Liang, who was holding chopsticks, flinched in an instant.
Most of the food served was light on the stomach. Aenghwa’s worries are reflected on the dining table.
Inwardly, he apologized to Aeng-hwa, and the meal of Seo-ryang began.
‘Okay, let’s forget the past. You were going to make a long-term plan anyway, right?’
While sweeping food to the extent that both cheeks become convex, only his eyes are serious. It was an expression that exquisitely went back and forth between comedy and seriousness.
‘Let’s think of this outing like this. If you decide, you can go out or not.’
If you think like that, you can see that there is a harvest in its own way. Didn’t it come out easier than I thought because I decided to go out?
Seo Liang’s expression brightened.
‘Okay, I just need to do this from now on.’
It was thanks to his small heart, but in the end, he was the one who led the situation that way. In other words, as long as you make up your mind, you can leave Protestantism in any way.
“… … good.”
Power went into the hand holding the chopsticks.
“Let’s try harder in the future. If you try, you will always find a way.”
When you change your mind, you feel at ease. As she imagined a rosy future, her heart pounded again.
After two days of eating, Seo Liang went out to the gymnasium.
Aenghwa, who was cleaning the yard, was surprised to find him.
“Go, Gongja?!”
“Uh, are you cleaning?”
“yes yes! Are you all right?”
Seo Liang ate his appetite. It was really embarrassing to think that I had to worry about Aenghwa by immersing myself in trivial concerns.
“are you okay. Were you worried?”
“Hehe, have you finished your meal?”
“I licked up all the seasoning.”
“I’ll go and clean it up right away!”
“Take it slow.”
The cherry blossoms, which had been dazzlingly sweeping the yard, moved in a hurry. She is moving fast, but her face is bright.
Seo Liang scratched his head.
“Anyway, it’s a place to go to someday, so isn’t it giving too much affection?”
What can I do? I think life here will be too hard if you cut off your relationship beforehand.
Besides, he’s a guy who’s already entered deep into his heart. It’s not that easy to break the bond.
“Okay, let’s relax a bit. Ooh, that’s stiff.”
When I stretch my legs straight, I can hear a strange sound. He had been lying in the same position for two days, so it was natural.
Fain!
There was strong power in the outstretched fists and the swinging kicks.
Xi Liang clicked his tongue inwardly.
‘Look how hard it is.’
Papapapang!
Jecheongi is a great martial art. Its value as a method of killing is high, but it is more effective than any other martial arts in warming up the body if it is operated with appropriate strength.
After half an angle, heat rose from Xu Liang’s body.
As time went by, second, second, half passed, his body was drenched in sweat. After his body loosened up to some extent, he moved on to detailed training.
When discussing the attitude of a water man or a man, Xu Liang can be a person with many deficiencies.
However, as a warrior, Xu Liang had a great advantage. It means that the mind and body are harmonized so that you can always pursue martial arts.
It is not about the state of martial arts, but about the attitude towards martial arts. If you look at it like that, he was a born-in-law.
“Phew, not bad.”
The training, which started with the intention of loosening up the body, was over after an hour.
Lying on his back in the gymnasium, he could see the clear sky in his eyes.
“A cloud… … there is Anyway, it’s clear.”
A smile spread across his lips. As expected, when my head was complicated, there was nothing I could do other than sweating.
‘Yes, this is it.’
My future will be as clear as that sky. Even if the unpleasant past pulls your hair, always look at the sky with a smile. Then the answer will come.
It was then.
“Confucius.”
“uh?”
Seo Liang jumped up.
A cautious voice came from outside the gate. It was Ma Dong-pil.
“Are you Dongpil?”
“Yes, Gongja.”
Excited, Xu Liang rushed to open the door. Then, for some reason, Ma Dong-pil with an awkward expression stood there.
“You must be at work, what are you doing here? Aren’t you busy?”
“That is… … .”
“Hey, it just went well. I had just finished training. I’m starting to get hungry, so let’s have a meal together.”
“Before that, I have something to tell you.”
“words? good word What?”
For some reason, it seems brighter than usual.
Ma Dong-pil cleared his throat and slowly knelt down.
Seo Liang’s eyes widened.
“what? Are you sick? what else are you doing… … .”
“New (臣) Ma Dong-pil! From now on, I declare that I will protect you wholeheartedly as the personal escort of the Three Gongja!”
“… … ?”
“… … .”
“… … A personal escort?”
“Ah, that’s it.”
Ma Dong-pil explained the situation to Seo-ryang, who asked back with an expression of disbelief.
“… … So, for the time being, I became Confucius’ escort. It’s been said for a while, but it’s probably going to be quite a long time.”
“… … .”
“I will give my life to protect you, Gongja.”
Kurururureung!!
It seemed like thunder was hitting from the other side of the sky that had only been clear.
“you… … A personal escort?”
“yes? Ah yes. From now on, we will live and eat at Confucius’ residence and closely escort him.”
“Who told you to?”
“I was informed by the head of the job, but since the transfer of personnel to an external organization is not under the jurisdiction of the Ho Court, the upper management… … omg! Confucius?!”
Ma Dong-pil hurriedly approached Xu Liang. Before he knew it, Xu Liang collapsed on his knees.
She looked up at the sky with a sad face. The clear sky no longer looked clear.
freedom? I got a close escort, but freedom?
“… … Doing a damn thing.”
