Myst, Might, Mayhem Chapter 366

< Episode 96 Sword (5) >

Gu Tianmu’s right arm, which is still squirming and bleeding, seems to still be feeling.

-Blah blah blah!

The floor where the right arm fell was split into several branches as if it had hit a sharp sword.

His right arm, which had been trained for a long time and reached the level of mastery of swords and swords, was like a sword.

Just by looking at this, we could see how high he had reached in terms of swordsmanship, but what was more shocking than that was,

‘Now, Zhou?’

‘Why yourself?’

He had cut off his right arm, which was the treasure of a craftsman and swordsman.

Everyone was speechless for a moment at this sight.

Why on earth did you make this choice?

He was the owner of Geogok, the sacred place of the sword, and Yeonggeom Mountain Lodge, and one of the Six Heavens, the pinnacle of the current martial arts world.

No matter how much I thought about it, there was no reason for him to do something like this.

Even if that monster’s swordsmanship was better than anyone could have imagined, no one present here thought that Zhou Gu Tianmu would be defeated by that person.

“ah······. Ah…”

The eyes of the second child, Gu Woong-seong, whose tongue was being held by Mo Qingyun’s true energy, were shaking like crazy.

He too was greatly shocked.

He thought that his father, Gu Tianmu, would naturally fight for honor and pride.

Even though he was a child, he was not spared because his martial skills were lower than that of his older brother, the owner, and his skills as a craftsman were lacking compared to the youngest, Yeonwoo.

Therefore, he did not have high expectations from his father.

I just thought it would be lucky if they didn’t leave me to die.

But,

‘why?’

Did you cut off the arm you loved so much?

Does that mean a sore finger is also a finger?

Enough to throw away your pride as a childless person and even your life as a craftsman?

He was narrow-minded and deviant compared to his older brother and younger brother, but at this moment, he couldn’t help but feel overwhelmed and have complicated feelings.

“Ugh.”

Seeing the sight of Gu Woong-seong shedding tears, people thought that Gu Tian-mu, the chieftain, was also a father.

He is the kind of father who can sacrifice anything for his son.

however,

“under!”

‘You are mistaken.’

Jieu, who was watching this scene from afar, snorted.

Now they thought that Gu Tianmu, the chieftain, had sacrificed his precious arm without hesitation to save his son.

But when he saw it, it wasn’t like that at all.

Human beings tended to see as much as they knew.

At this point, except for Gu Tianmu, the only person who had reached the highest level in swordsmanship and martial arts was the only one who had surpassed the wall.

You can vaguely guess that the extermination of the Hangsan faction was happening right before the wall, but the sword engraved on the wall was truly a group of children and sole proponents.

He too was struck by a sense of defeat for a moment when he saw the traces carved on that cliff.

This was nothing compared to the shock I felt when I saw the kendo sword play.

A height so distant that it is impossible to catch up.

‘That’s a real monster.’

A monster that has reached a level that even Gu Tianmu of Zhang Zhou could not reach.

To be honest, it was no exaggeration to say that if Gu Cheonmu and the author fought, the outcome would be somewhat determined.

Unless a special variable arose, it was difficult for Gu Cheonmu to win.

He himself knew this, so he cut off his own arm.

‘What a clever old man.’

Ji Oe had been here for a long time, so he knew very well how clever the respected person in the world, Gu Cheon-mu, was.

He is a great man who held numerous swordsmen here under the pretext of leading future generations through kendo and swordplay, and shared his enlightenment with them to further develop himself.

He never does anything that causes harm.

Therefore, even when making a sword, you had to receive his German swordsmanship.

Who could make such a bold request?

‘If you get caught, you lose everything.’

That’s why Gu Cheonmu even made the extreme choice of cutting off his own arm.

In fact, the people here still believed in Gu Tianmu, so he didn’t know, but he knew.

If I didn’t show at least this level of sincerity, I didn’t know what the other person would do.

‘You’ve earned your cause.’

Now that things are like this, it will be difficult for even that monster to be stubborn anymore.

I even cut off my right arm for my son’s sake, but going any further would be like crossing the line.

If I had to do the bare minimum, I would stop here.

Although Gu Cheon-mu lost his arm, he will never lose his pride as a warrior thanks to the public opinion that he sacrificed himself for his son.

But that was right then.

“You did something for nothing.”

‘!?’

“Your fault is simply your fault.”

“What are you doing now…?”

“I’m sure you said it. “I did something for nothing.”

-Sigh!

Mo Kyung-un moved his hand.

Then, the second child, Gu Woong-seong’s tongue, was twisted so much that part of it was torn off and blood burst out.

-Foot!

“Aaaah!”

It was on the verge of being torn apart.

Seeing that scene, Gu Tianmu finally couldn’t hold back his anger and shouted.

“How dare you!”

“How can it not be like this? I never asked Jangju to take responsibility as a parent. And it is right that you are responsible for your own mistakes.”

“what?”

At Mo Qingyun’s firm words, Zhuang Zhou Gu Tianmu went from being angry to dumbfounded.

As Ji Oe expected, he realized from the traces on the cliff that even if he were to compete with Mo Gyeong-un, his chances of winning were low.

Therefore, in order to gain the justification of sacrificing for his son, he cut off his right arm, shedding tears of blood.

‘This is a fight that must be avoided.’

Because there was too much to lose, fighting had to be avoided at least in this way.

Cutting off one’s right hand was a great sacrifice no matter who saw it.

However, he has also trained his left hand to some extent in order to pursue a higher level of kendo, so losing it does not lead to the worst situation.

All of this was calculated to some extent.

But,

‘How much interest?’

He even cut off his right arm and bowed down like this. Are you really going to take that kid’s tongue away?

It was truly embarrassing.

There was no reason to endure any longer.

In fact, if you don’t step up in this situation, your reputation, not your honor, will suffer.

-closely!

In an instant, Gu Tianmu’s mind became complicated.

If you fight to save face, defeat is obvious.

However, if you don’t step forward, you will be branded as a coward who doesn’t do anything even when your son is being treated horribly.

It was truly a situation of dilemma.

‘It was foolish…’

What was thought to be a trick turned out to be a defeat.

Normally, he would have stopped in this situation, but Lee Jae’s behavior was the exact opposite of what was expected.

It might have been better to fight for my life rather than cut off my arm.

It was right then.

-Sigh!

At that time, Mok Gyeong-un stopped pretending to turn it with his hand and spoke.

“I guess I’ve become very weak-hearted too.”

“······.”

A look of puzzlement appeared in Gu Tianmu’s eyes.

I was wondering if we should fight in the end, but what was the purpose of suddenly stopping it?

Did I become capricious while trying to take a hard line?

to do,

“It’s admirable that the owner cares so much about his son, but it wouldn’t be a good look if he were to rip out your son’s tongue.”

“······If you do that, are you also going to step down?”

“That’s right. “It’s just that I don’t particularly like having a follow-up.”

“Return?”

Are you at least hoping to promise not to take revenge?

If that were the case, I could have done enough.

I didn’t even think about revenge in the first place.

It took a long time for me to overcome the wall and reach kendo and kenjutsu.

But no matter how you look at him, he is much younger than himself.

How long will it take to catch up with someone like this and dream of revenge?

‘······I have a lot to lose.’

The more things one held in one’s hands, the more one thought about returns rather than returns.

Gu Tianmu spoke in a cautious voice.

“How can you blame me for doing this to save my child? “If you have resolved your feelings through this, I would like to make sure that Nobu also concludes his relationship here.”

“It’s nice to see a good performance. But that’s because I’m very cautious.”

Gu Cheonmu clicked his tongue inwardly.

He is truly a picky person.

How can a powerful person who has reached such a high level be so cautious?

No, is it detailed?

At this, Gu Tianmu let out a light breath and said.

“What do you want? “If you want a promise, I can at least leave it in writing.”

“In writing. It’s not bad. “But you can tear up the paper you left written words on at any time.”

“······Then what do you want?”

“I also have a sense of shame, so I think it’s too much to ask for the Danjeon to be abolished… Now that it’s come to this, how about getting the other arm as well?”

‘!!!!!!’

At that moment, Gu Tianmu’s expression became horribly distorted.

I wondered what he was going to ask for, but I never imagined that he would also ask for his remaining arm.

-Roaring!

There was a lot of commotion around too.

Is the interest rate really crazy?

Gu Jangju gave up his pride as a six-thousand and made such concessions for his son, but would he even cut off his remaining arm?

It really crossed the line.

Therefore,

“Jangju! “Not this!”

“We will help you too!”

“Second Confucius will also understand Lord Zhang’s feelings. “You must not give in!”

“You don’t have to endure it any longer!”

Shouts of anger erupted from everywhere.

Their boiling cries gave strength to the hand of Gu Tianmu, who was holding the sword in his left hand.

It wasn’t enough to cut off both of his son’s arms, but he also asked for his own remaining arm.

It definitely crossed the line.

No more…

“It seems like a lot of people are angry. But you have to listen to the story until the end.”

“to the end? “Do it now…”

“If you, out of great sacrifice, cut off your left arm, I will attach your son’s other arm.”

“what?”

Everyone was dumbfounded by Mo Gyeong-un’s words.

How can you reattach an arm that has already been cut off?

Do they think Jangju and themselves are fools now that they are spewing out something that cannot be done even if God’s will comes?

“Don’t you believe it?”

Mok Kyung-un said with a sigh and a smile.

Then they shouted.

“What nonsense are you talking about! Jangju! “The author is insulting Zhuang Zhou.”

“You don’t even have to listen. right now······.”

That said,

-Wow!

At that time, a floating sword flew out and cut off the arm of one of the swordsmen of Yeonggeom Lodge who was screaming.

“Ahh!”

-visor!

Everyone around them drew their swords at the sudden strike.

Are we really going to give it a try?

It was that moment.

-Pot!

“Huh!”

When Mo Gyeong-un stretched out his hand and pulled, the swordsman with the severed arm was forcibly propelled and flew in front of Mo Gyeong-un by the vast magical energy.

He was a top-notch expert, but compared to the level of wood cultivation, he was only at the level of a bug on the ground, so he could not withstand the spirit.

-Sigh!

“Are you sure you want to see the end?”

Gu Tianmu, the chieftain, aimed the sword held in his left hand at Mu Qingyun.

Then Mok Kyung-un shrugged his shoulders and said.

“I’m just trying to show you that you don’t believe me.”

“What is that…”

It was then.

-floating!

The severed arm floated up and flew towards the swordsman who was being held by Jinki.

In that state, the area where Mokgyeongun had been cut was lightly punctured.

Then the bleeding stopped to some extent.

“It will hurt a little.”

“Well, what are you doing…”

-Park!

The severed arm that was floating at that time was attached to the part of the swordsman’s severed arm.

In that state, Mok Gyeong-un held the inspection paper with his right hand and placed it on the cut area.

And then with your left hand,

-Good! Good! Good! Good! Good! Good!

‘Im (臨)! Fight! Before! Ash! Jin! Dog!’

An abbreviated seal of the old self-reliance law was signed.

When the hand sign was made like that, red heat flowed out from the end of the index finger of Mokyungun’s right hand.

“Huh?”

The inspector was so shocked that he didn’t know what to do.

However, his body was forcibly tied up by Jin-gi, so he could not move.

While doing so, Mokgyeongun moved the inspection paper along the cut area.

In that state,

‘My ancestor, the Emperor of the Eastern Qing Dynasty, my ancestor, the Emperor of the Central Emperor, my ancestor, the Emperor of the Western Baekje, my ancestor, the Emperor of the Northern Black Empire, my ancestor, the Emperor of the Central Emperor.’

I recited a spell in my mind.

-Chiiiiiiig!

At the same time, smoke rose from the cut area where the test paper passed.

The swordsman screamed in burning pain.

“Kwaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

In the end, Gu Cheon-mu, the chieftain, came forward to see the swordsman’s distressed appearance.

The only person who could deal with this person was himself.

“Stop now!”

-Pot!

Gu Cheon-mu, who hit the floor, immediately narrowed the distance and aimed for Mo Gyeong-un between the eyebrows.

Mok Gyeong-un then placed Geom Su in front of the path, as if to use it as a shield.

‘this!’

Thanks to this, Gu Cheonmu had to change the path of the sword.

-Wow!

Gucheonmu, which exquisitely turned to the periphery, created a sword shape with dozens of branches, creating a shape that retracts like a flower bud in full bloom falling in reverse.

Everyone could not help but be amazed by his gorgeous swordsmanship.

It made me wonder how he took a step back when even the sword sword he was using with his left hand, not his right, was so good.

however,

-Park!

Mokgyeongun thrust the swordsman’s head into the middle of the flower bud’s trajectory.

Gu Tianmu’s eyes wavered.

Because his left hand was constantly trained, he was able to precisely avoid it and aim for Mokgyeongun with his skills, but the moment the trajectory is slightly wrong, the swordsman dies.

-Pot!

In the end, Gu Cheon-mu gave up on herbivorous behavior, widened the distance, and shouted.

“How can you be so cowardly…”

Gu Cheonmu’s eyes widened as he shouted.

That’s because the swordsman, who had been suffering just moments before, moved his severed arm without realizing it.

“uh?”

The swordsman, who had moved his teeth unconsciously, looked at his severed arm in surprise, as if he had finally realized this.

The pain disappeared before I knew it, and my arms and fingers could move freely.

The prosecutor had an expression of disbelief.

“What the hell is this?”

Other inspectors and guests around him also reacted in the same way.

I was wondering what on earth he was doing, but the swordsman’s arm, which had been cut off, was connected.

It was a sight I couldn’t believe even when I saw it.

While everyone was surprised, Mok Kyung-un spoke.

“I should have told you. “I can put her severed arm back together.”

“······.”

“Did it sound empty?”

This was a healing technique called the Sammyobop (三妙法).

Although there were some difficult conditions, it was a magic technique so magical that even a severed arm could be reattached if it were met.

Among these conditions, the biggest limitation is the need for the subject’s vital energy.

Simply put, it meant sacrificing part of one’s life.

Naturally, the stronger the technique, the greater the limitations, but since it did not consume one’s own energy, it was a useful technique.

“ruler. What will you do now? If you give me the rest of my arm, I’ll put your son’s arm back on. “The choice is entirely up to you.”

“······.”

In response to Mu Qingyun’s suggestion, Zhuang Zhou Gu Tianmu could not say anything.

Because he was the best craftsman in the central region and one of the six thousand, he was able to gain an upper hand in transactions no matter who came.

But not like this time.

This is the first time someone so clever has experienced this.

If you were to give up your own remaining arm, would you give it to your son’s severed arm?

“Go ahead and choose. “Is it your son’s arm or your own arm?”

-closely!

Gu Cheonmu bit his lip.

I have never seen someone so vicious.

There was no option in this proposal in the first place.

No matter what you choose, you lose everything.

Cutting off his arm would be the same as ending his life as a warrior or craftsman, and not cutting off his arm would be the same as giving up on his son, and he would eventually have to fight this person.

If that happens, you will lose everything as well.

-Gurgling!

A situation of dilemma where there is no choice.

Before he knew it, Jangju’s forehead was wet with sweat and his head was sore that it felt like it was going to break.

-Roaring!

People around me were shouting at him, but I couldn’t hear anything.

Gu Cheon-mu’s dazed gaze soon turned to Mo Gyeong-un.

– Creepy!

Gu Tianmu’s expression froze when he saw Mo Qingyun’s face.

He was laughing as if all of this was fun, but his laughter was full of malice.

The guy was testing himself, or rather playing with him.

‘devil······. This person is truly like an evil spirit.’

I think I understand now.

From the beginning, he was aware that he was trying to avoid fighting in the name of protecting his son.

That is why this situation was induced.

No matter what you choose, the situation is bound to be the worst.

-Purrrrr!

When Gu Tianmu realized this, for the first time in his life, he felt extreme fear and fear from a person.

It wasn’t because he was a peerless swordsman who surpassed him.

This demon-like person thoroughly manipulated the hearts of others and made them submit.

In the end, Gu Cheonmu was unable to choose anything.

-dump!

I got down on both knees on the spot.

“Jangju!”

“father!”

Everyone shouted in surprise at this sight.

However, Gu Tianmu could no longer hear anyone else’s gaze or voice.

He suffered so much that his head exploded at two crossroads filled with only the worst things, and in the end, he let go of everything as if he had been liberated.

-thud!

Gu Cheon-mu immediately bowed his head to Mo Kyung-un and said.

“The old man will ask for forgiveness like this. “I will do whatever you want, so please have mercy.”

‘!!!!!!!!!!’
