“Benefactor. “No, sir.”
Seeing Jin Tae-gyeong standing up with a stiff face, Joo Hwa-ran hurriedly grabbed him.
No, I tried to catch it.
“Let it go.”
A soft word penetrated my ear.
The hand that was reaching out towards Jin Tae-kyung suddenly falls in the air. Juhwaran is a tea
I looked at the door that was closed tightly again with the wind and rain of courtesy, and then turned around.
“Even if I let it go like this… “Was it okay?”
At the last moment, Jeokcheon River, who had dissuaded Joo Hwaran, answered in a calm voice.
“well. “How would the old man know?” “No!”
Jeokcheongang smiled slightly at Joo Hwa-ran’s shout, which seemed to be a reprimand.
It’s been over one hundred and ten years since I toured the world’s martial forests.
I have seen countless groups of people in the time that flows like running water, and the number of enemies I have defeated so far is uncountable.
The name of Hwawang Jeokcheongang is both past history and present history.
Even the spirits of the nine factions and the five generations do not dare to raise their voices in front of him.
But what could have made that child so angry in front of the world’s fire king?
Jeokcheongang knew the answer.
The reason why his one and only student left in a hurry.
“There was one person whom Nobu had known for quite some time. “Every night, we would drink and eat meat in a quiet place, and it was literally crazy.”
Joo Hwaran, who had paused for a moment at the random story, cautiously opened his mouth.
“Is this the person you just mentioned?”
“Yes, that person is none other than the King of Law.”
The friendship between the two was well known.
The Fire King Jeokcheongang, whose temperament was as fiery as that of a star sign, had hundreds, if not thousands, of times more enemies than friends, and the King of Beop was the only person in their shallow relationship who could calm the Fire King down with a few words.
Although Jeokcheongang didn’t know it, the fact that he was able to control his outrageous personality, regardless of his martial arts skills, also played a big part in why Goengdo earned the title of King of Beop.
Of course, the most decisive reason why the King was able to gain the respect of all the martial arts people in the world was because of his gentle nature and his mysterious foresight, which can be called great virtue.
“He sometimes read the heavenly records to find out the will of heaven. “It was truly an unbelievably amazing feat to watch from the side.”
Everyone, including Joo Hwaran, was quietly listening to this story that started so suddenly.
King Beop was a symbolic figure of the Jungwon martial arts world. Even if he was not the head of Shaolin Temple, the Bukdu of the Great Mountain of Wulin, that fact would not change. “But he said that a year before he entered nirvana.”
Jeokcheongang once again brought out a memory deeply imprinted in his mind.
It was a memory of that night that I would think of every time I thought of a friend who had passed away, and now I could never go back again.
“They said the heavenly spirit was becoming distorted. And that’s already been done for several decades. “Soon, dark clouds of unknown tribulation will gather and cover the sun, moon, and even the stars.”
“Damcheon (暗天)••••••!”
A single-word sigh flowing from between someone’s lips.
Jeokcheongang nodded and continued speaking in a low voice.
“Yes, it has been since then. “I began to pay serious attention to the existence of dark streams.”
But that wasn’t everything.
Four months ago. Because in the sky that Pope Hwangdo looked up at, there was something shining through the chaotic darkness. “New star.”
Jeokcheongang let out the breath he had been holding.
A nova originally refers to a star that shines brightly for a moment and then fades out.
But one day it began to shine brightly in the north and never faded.
No, rather, the size of the light increased day by day.
Until the two people, old and young, who met as if by chance, left Shanxi and reached Hanam.
They spent a year together on Mount Nine, until the monk who first discovered divinity became a handful of relics.
And probably until now.
“Do you know what the Pope at that time said when he announced the existence of divinity?”
No one could answer that question, and Jeokcheongang also did not wait for an answer.
Yes.
“It was said that a young boy with no head left by the old man was the master of that divinity.”
“······!”
“It was also said that even if one day the whole world falls into darkness, its divinity will not lose its light.”
People who were speechless opened their mouths in silence.
This was because the protagonist of this amazing, hitherto unknown secret was someone they knew well.
‘Jin Tae-kyung.’
The name of one person that penetrated everyone’s minds.
The shock they felt at this moment was beyond what they had imagined.
It was said that the Pope, King Goongdo, was the divine master who would brighten the world. He was said to be a star that would not lose its shine until the end.
However, what that divinity refers to is not the martial god who has become a legend of the past, nor the sword saint who is writing down the current legend as a new martial arts leader.
It was Jin Tae-kyung.
A young man who had just surpassed the terms and conditions, and yet shone brighter than anyone else in the tribulation that swept over the world, was the master of divinity.
It rattled. Huh.
In the silence that had fallen inside the palace, the strong wind and rain blew open the tightly closed door.
The rain and wind, which had not weakened at all, swirled around the people, but no one spoke.
However, as if he had made a promise, he quietly turned his head and looked beyond the darkness outside with eyes that were not yet in shock.
The place where the stars stayed.
A divine master somewhere out there. “I heard that once.”
Jeokcheongang calmly frowned.

“Where the stars shine, there is darkness. But stars never disappear.”
Even Jeokcheon-gang was skeptical at first.
It’s a tribulation that can’t be compared to the Great War.
Jin Tae-kyung, who is so pale that he is no better than a lump of blood, is the light in that tribulation.
But as time passed and the longer I watched Jin Tae-kyung by his side, the more I realized it.
This guy is truly a light. It is a new star that will become a guidepost in the darkness that will cover the world in the future.
and······.
‘It is the only light that heaven allowed to Nobu.’
Just as stars shine brighter in the dark, there was always darkness wherever Jin Tae-kyung went.
But no darkness dared to touch it. The light emitted by the star could not be extinguished.
Even if that day comes someday, it won’t be like this one.
Because complete darkness has not yet fallen over the world. Because only then will the divinity known as Jin Tae-kyung shine the loudest and brightest.
‘Until then””” Find your own path. Shine wherever you want.’
Jeokcheongang smiled faintly.
He has long since passed the time of debating what is right and wrong in the world.
There is no justice in the martial arts world he experienced, or in this world.
Monsters absorbed in their own cause are just pointing their swords at each other.
Like this series of unknown situations taking place right here in the imperial palace. ‘The same goes for Nobu.’
Getting old also means that you have become dull.
Before we knew it, the word death had become worthless, and those who had given us their hearts in difficult times began to leave one by one.
The first disciples, Jang Cheon-do and Pope Pope.
The justice and cause established by Jeokcheongang is to protect what is left of oneself.
However, I hoped that I would make at least some good choices in the process. Just like the only disciple who suddenly came to visit him in his later years.
In Jeok Cheon-gang’s opinion, that was the only difference between the political faction and Sima Dao.
‘Even if it is written awkwardly, its meaning will fade.’
Even if the handwriting is poor, the meaning of the word Jeong (正) does not change. He’s still just as clumsy as a child.
And Jin Tae-kyung, his student, hates assassins who don’t even make that effort. She was suspicious of Ma Sambo’s intention in suddenly attracting the martial people.
‘It doesn’t matter what decision you make. Because Nobu will always be by your side.’
Jeokcheongang stared at the darkness seen between the door wide open in the wind.
The imperial palace is an unknown area that holds many secrets.
I’m not surprised what happens next.
No, there was a storm so huge that it was impossible to distinguish between enemy and enemy.
‘If you can’t avoid it, you have no choice but to collide.’
Jeokcheongang, who was inwardly worried, hit Taesan on the back of the head as he was chopping up his empty plate.
Perfect!
“Stop washing the dishes and close the door. “You Sapa bastard.”
* * *
It didn’t take long before I encountered Masambo.
Because he found me before I found him.
“You are waiting.”
While I was heading to the hall assigned to my class, remembering the structure I had already figured out, a eunuch wearing tight military uniform approached me and narrowed my eyes when he spoke to me.
‘How did know?’
They were thoroughly concealed using darkness and terrain, and their movements were kept to a minimum.
Even if the eunuchs of my class were highly skilled in the art of silver shamanism, it was difficult to understand how they could so easily recognize my presence, even though they were experts at a much higher rank.
but······.
‘Damn it.’
Right now, it is time to leave doubts behind and move on. As I quietly stepped forward in the dark, the eunuch guided me to a small palace.
“He’s waiting inside.”
I quickly looked around.
Within the imperial palace, there are numerous halls and areas for various ministries.
However, this place was not the Dongchang area written on the map of the palace interior that I obtained through Masambo in advance.
“for a moment. This place······
“It’s not the building assigned to our alumni. That is according to what is officially known.”
“Okay then. “The little man will leave.”
A secret position within the imperial palace that is used to avoid public attention. Is it something like that?
Leaving behind the eunuch who disappeared without even having a chance to say anything, I entered the palace hall.
Squeak.
I am thankful when the weather is rough like this.
Because the scream from the old wooden door was drowned out by the sound of heavy rain. ‘Masambo…is this floor.’
The only thing that can be felt from upstairs is the popularity. As I walked up the creaky stairs that resembled a door, I saw the back of a person standing alone in a dark space.
“Are you here?”
Bright white teeth, clearly different from ordinary people of this era, were clearly visible through the darkness.
Masambo looked around the space, which was devoid of any furniture, let alone candles, and shrugged his shoulders.
“Understand even if it’s shabby. “There are so many people watching.”
“it’s okay. “Something like this.”
“It’s something like this. “It sounds like you’re saying that everything else is not okay.”
“Since you already know, the conversation will end quickly.”
The voice that comes out between my lips is unfamiliar, like it belongs to someone else. The facial expression is probably as stiff as the voice.
“As expected, you’re surprisingly honest.” “I hear that a lot.”
In fact, how many times did Masambo, the head of the alumni group, hear an answer like this?
But his reaction was different from what I expected.
“So, what do you want to hear about?”
A calm face that says something is coming. And then a calm voice is heard.
“The assassins I hired? Or… Sogyo (小橋). The woman?”
“······!”
