Login Murim Chapter 895
The inside of the palace is as dark as a cave.
As I listened to the sound of heavy rain outside the window, I quietly pondered the meaning of what I had just heard.
There was also the appearance of the eunuch who guided me here, as if he had been waiting for me from the beginning.
“Did you already know that?”
Masambo nodded.
“A report came in from the assassins about two o’clock. My identity was revealed to you. “They were concerned that this situation might be an obstacle to completing the request.”
Unless you are a very tactless person, you can guess that the expression “I am concerned” is a very purified expression.
Especially if the opponents are assassins.
“So, the assassins hired by the High Commissioner were trying to kill me.”
“Not necessarily, but you know that. “What kind of people are the assassins?”
“I’ve never experienced it myself, but I know something. And the Prime Minister brought those people into this matter.”
“I couldn’t help it either. “If they were given reasonable compensation, they would be more loyal than anyone else.”
“So, what did you say to them about my treatment?”
“······Look here.”
Ma Sambo, who was staring at me with narrowed eyebrows, spoke as if sighing.
“Don’t look at me like a madman like the Emperor. You are the one who risked a thousand miles to help His Majesty the King of Sangsan, and they are just messengers who carry out a mission with the promise of compensation. “Who would be a more trustworthy ally?”
“that
“Yes, of course you. “Is this a sufficient answer?”
Not yet.
I barely managed to keep the words that were about to come out in my mouth. ‘Okay, not yet.’
Is it because of my experience so far?
Or is it because my head is as cold as the rain?
I realized this instinctively. Confiding all of your current thoughts to the other person is not a good choice.
Instead, he nodded his head in agreement.
“Then Sogyo. Did she even know about that woman?”
“No. “The reason I hid information about the assassins was because I knew how martial people like you viewed them, but that woman was different.”
The reason why it felt like a shadow was cast over Masambo’s face at this moment was not only because the surroundings were dark.
“The reason we couldn’t tell you in advance about the woman who goes by the name Sogyo is because we didn’t know much about her either.
“You didn’t know? A classmate and no one else?”
The Geumuiwiui and Dongchang are enormous information organizations that have taken root throughout the world.
However, such a classmate did not know the circumstances of the imperial family, which was no different from its headquarters, no matter how much its power was reduced immediately after the treason.
This is not easy to understand. “Please tell me more.”
“I understand. “That way, I can give you a little more faith.”
Ma Sambo, who read the disbelief in my eyes, smiled bitterly and continued.
“It was about ten years ago now. Sogyo, or rather the unidentified master, first appeared.”
Left ahhh.
His voice seeped through the sound of the rain that was slowly starting to subside.
All stories are over.
After talking without stopping for a little while, Masambo took out a gourd bottle from his side, and I looked at him with confused eyes.
“Why are you telling me this important information now? If only I had known a little earlier…
“Because I was anxious.”
Masambo, who was just about to tilt the gourd, spoke.
“It may sound like an excuse, but I had no choice. It didn’t seem like she could handle her with just the strength of her allies she had gathered at present. ,’
A strong liquor comes out through the mouth of the gourd. Ma Sambo, noticing my gaze, threw the gourd he was holding in his hand.
“Would you like a drink? “You look like you really want to drink.”
Tuk.
I reflexively reached out my hand to take the gourd, hesitated for a moment, and then brought it to my mouth.
After hearing a complicated story, I couldn’t help but crave for a drink.
Anyway, I didn’t get that drunk even if I drank the whole jar, so I gulped it down.
Every time I passed it down my throat, I could feel the strong aroma filling my mouth along with the fiery alcohol.
It was fire liquor, a cheap alcohol sold everywhere in the world.
“Maybe it’s because the North is my hometown, but I drink a lot.”
I frowned and swallowed the remaining liquor in my mouth before answering.
“It’s surprising. “I thought you would like some nice drinks.”
“Why did you think that my classmate, Byeongpil Taegam, would not drink cheap drinks like Hwaju?”
Masambo smiled slightly and shook his head.
“No matter how high I reach, my essence is to be a shipper. It was similar to the fact that it was a life at the bottom that could be seen anywhere, and that it was not easy to see what was hidden inside. If you want to survive in the imperial palace for a long time, you have to hide your true feelings like the poisonous liquor that the ship owner has. In that sense, she can be said to be the same type as that woman.
“I guess I can do it.” Yes, Sogyo.
Along with the unbelievable story I heard a moment ago.
“Is it all true?”
“After hearing it, what do you think? Do you think it’s a lie?”
“I want to hear an answer.”
“If you want to be sure, yes. Everything is true without a single lie. “I’ll bet my neck.”
Masambo, who answered with a stern face, suddenly
I turned my head towards the window.
His eyes were deeply sunken as he looked out the window at the thinning raindrops.
“In short, Sogyo. “If it weren’t for her, she wouldn’t have been able to succeed in her treason that day, and Chang Gong (龐公) wouldn’t have been lying in bed like he is now.”

It is said that Sogyo first appeared ten years ago, on the day when the imperial palace was engulfed in fire.
“Hong Jin may not have known because he stayed by His Majesty’s side the entire time, but as you said, our classmate did his best to prevent treason that day.”
If Masambo’s story is true, Chang Gong, who now collapsed because he could not overcome illness, was a great hero.
He served the emperor before Baekyeon, and Ilsin’s martial arts skills were said to be on par with Baekyeon, who was said to be the best general of the imperial family.
“It was Changgong who was the first to notice it. He summoned the Golden Guard from the outskirts of the imperial capital and attempted to repel the traitors with his comrades from within the imperial palace.”
At the time, Masambo was also under Changgong’s command, and he judged that he had a good chance of winning if he could defeat the Geumwiwi within the imperial palace and recapture the former emperor’s new soldiers.
Until one person shows up.
“The life and death relationship between Baekyeon and Changgong was a Baekjungse (伯仲勢). If the trend had been maintained, the rebellion could have been suppressed. If the Geumwi Army had joined, it would have been difficult for even the Geumwiwi Army to endure. but······
Masambo continued speaking in a stern voice.
“Things in this world don’t always go as planned.”
The situation suddenly turned when an unidentified master dressed in black appeared.
White and black people.
Changgong, who was unable to overcome the combined efforts of the two supreme masters, collapsed with severe internal injuries, and the tense battle broke down.
“At that time, our army’s military power was in no way inferior to that of the Geumuiwi. “The only person who lost was the man in black… no, it was an unidentified expert who should now be called Sogyo.”
Masambo tried to tilt the gourd that I had given back to him as if his throat was burning, but before he knew it, it slipped from his trembling fingertips and rolled around helplessly on the floor. Tongue. Degurrr.
The empty sound and the half-empty liquor left overflow into tears.
Masambo looked down at the liquor pooling on the floor with heavy eyes and muttered to himself.
“The inaction I witnessed back then was truly horrifying. “I couldn’t do anything in the face of that overwhelming force.”
I suddenly remembered this.
The energy of Sogyo was always as calm as the spring breeze. And that terrifying energy wave that surged around her in a split second.
“It certainly wasn’t their best effort either.”
Would that be what it felt like to face a huge wall that couldn’t be overcome?
Although I have met many powerful people so far, the number of people who made me feel that level of intimidation, including my enemies, was less than ten.
‘And all of them were either members of Samsung or experts who were comparable to him.’
Those who have escaped the transcendental state that every warrior dreams of and have stepped into a higher realm of supremacy.
Just like Jeokcheon-gang, who finally reached the state of anti-Rohwan-dong after shaking off the evil that had been gnawing away at his mind and body for a long time, So Gyo was also an expert for whom the expression “All couples are unfair” would not be lacking.
“So you chose me. No, me and my teacher.”
“That’s right. “It’s just like I said before.”
A situation where the whole truth has already been revealed.
Masambo continued speaking with a heavy face.
“A person who will not hesitate to run a thousand miles for King Sangsan. Someone who would put humanity as a top priority over compensation for results. and······
“Another strong person capable of dealing with the unidentified expert who stays by the emperor’s side. Hwawang (火王) Jeokcheongang. Is that correct?”
Masambo, who was silent for a moment, nodded weakly.
“That’s accurate. That was why I included your name when sending a secret letter to Heungjin. “If the one and only disciple took the risk of heading to the imperial palace, it was not difficult to predict that the master would also be there.”
“Then you knew everything about what happened in Namman?”
“I’ve been keeping a close eye on you for a while. “Not just others, but you.”
“Why didn’t you formally request help from the Murim Alliance earlier? “It would have been much better that way.”
“I also know quite a bit about the current leader, the Sword Saint Maejonghak. Changgong even called him one of the few true charlatans left in this era.”
“Then there is no reason to choose me or Master, is there?”
“Wouldn’t it be better if the secret wasn’t revealed? Even more so if the secret is a treason.”
“ah.,,
Masambo smiled bitterly at me drooling.
“I like what you say, it’s just anti-government (anti-IM). In the eyes of the world, aren’t we treasonous sinners? Moreover, if it is revealed that this matter has a connection with Moorim, it will never go in a good direction.”
Although the martial arts group is a forest that exists within the boundaries of a major country, it is also a group that directly goes against the rule of law of the country.
Therefore, the intervention of the Murim Alliance is tantamount to bringing in some kind of foreign power into this important fight over the throne.
And wild animals that escaped the fence without a leash.
“Of course, the current Murim lord must have been intent on helping us. “You can tell just by looking at the secret order I gave you to protect His Majesty King Sangsan.”
“It’s true. “We are also in a situation where we have to pay close attention to the royal family’s every move.”
“But there’s only so much we can help with. “If you were to formally ask them to join the rebel army, how many of the leaders of the Murim Alliance would agree?” “that······
I blurted out my words.
traitorous mother.
A word that sends chills down your spine just by thinking of it.
He ruled like a king within the Demonic Cult.
As you might know, the Murim Lord, who was elected through support, cannot make decisions like this arbitrarily.
Gufileilbang and Odaese. And even countless factions standing under the banner of the Murim Alliance.
Getting the support of most of them is virtually impossible.
Regardless of right or wrong, treason is a dangerous gamble that can lead to ruin in a single moment.
“In that sense, Jin Tae-gyeong, the Fire Divine Dragon. “I will ask you formally.” It was like a new lie. Masambo’s eyes sparkled in the darkness.
“Would you like to join hands with me?”
A powerful voice pierced my ears clearly.
“Will you help us put order in this chaotic world and put His Majesty King Sangsan on the throne?”
This is a new model that blows my mind without even realizing it. In my jumbled and tangled mind, a line of thought falls into place.
In a short but longer silence than ever before, I stared at Masambo in silence and suddenly opened my mouth.
“The Yeonpanjang (連判狀) you showed me last time. Do you still have it?”
A bright smile spread across Masambo’s lips as he realized the meaning of those words.
