This is the 123rd operational change.
That’s because he’s not a bad person.
If either Gwi-ryeong-ja or Im-hyang had been a villain, their married life wouldn’t have been hell for so long. Whoever left would have left, and whoever killed would have killed.
That’s because they’re both ordinary people. They were a relationship and a life where they fought and got attached to each other, and they really hated and detested each other but had no choice but to live together, but they never wanted to repeat that life.
“Come on in. There’s food here, so please start here.”
Ian and I went inside. Seojin followed us.
“Let me guide you.”
I want to connect my relationship with Seojin from my past life with Ian in this life.
As we walked together, I sent a message to Ian.
-Ian, Seojin here is the candidate for the head of the Gwiyeongdae Jejo team.
-oh!
Her eyes lit up as if she had heard something unexpected.
-Imagine that the demon troop you lead has a leader who can use magic.
– I’ll finish it off. Even our university name has the word “ghost” in it!
―It is up to you whether you take this woman as your subordinate or not.
Ian had absolute confidence in me, so he never asked me, ‘Why her?’
Instead, he told Seojin.
“Congratulations on your wedding, brother.”
“Thank you. I thought I would never get married, but I am doing it anyway.”
Although it was their first time meeting, Seojin answered cheerfully.
“Why? You’re a good person and have a good personality.”
“Even so, he’s just a guy who only studies.”
Seojin had feelings for Ian. I know why.
In the past, Seo Jin also really liked pretty women. He said that he felt good when he saw pretty things. He liked beauties, flowers, and pretty clothes. His tastes, which did not fit with those of a ronin, were probably because he had a smooth childhood growing up in a prestigious family.
“I’ve only heard of it, I’ve never actually experienced it.”
“Nothing much.”
Seojin stopped walking for a moment and raised his hand. Black smoke rose from his palm and in an instant, it took the shape of a snake.
It was a small snake made of smoke, but it felt strangely real and seemed like it would turn into a black snake at any moment.
WHEEK!
The snake suddenly lunged at Ian.
But before it could reach Ian, it was picked up and scattered into smoke.
“It’s so cool!”
“Aren’t you surprised?”
“Because there was no life.”
A flash of fear flashed through Seojin’s eyes as he looked at Ian. No matter how lifeless he was, anyone would flinch if a snake suddenly attacked them. However, Ian was completely unfazed.
“Please show me again next time.”
“Then something bigger and scarier comes out.”
“Good!”
I think they would be a good match in terms of personality. Both women have refreshing personalities that are not too snobby, and they know how to be considerate of each other.
What if both Cheongmyeon and Seojin could enter the Guiyeongdae?
Cheongmyeon provides weight to the role of Iljojang, and Seojin brightens the mood as Ijojang. The picture is already good.
But it wouldn’t be easy, because one was a candidate for Amazon and the other was a blood relative of the Gui Moon family.
There were already several guests in the main hall, and more guests arrived later. Some were the guests of the deceased, and some were the guests of the deceased.
When all the invited guests arrived, Gwiryeongja and Im Hyangdo entered the main hall.
They toasted together and celebrated their impending wedding.
Most of those invited were descendants of noble families and were well-mannered.
But there was one exception. He was Zhou Ming of the Seo Jongpa, who had been a friend of Im Hyang since childhood. His expression was dark from the moment he entered, and he had many complaints about this marriage.
Was it because of the alcohol he had been drinking from the start? Or was it because he secretly liked Imhyang?
He spoke openly to Im Hyang in the presence of the nobleman.
“Honestly, as a long-time friend, I cannot congratulate you on this wedding.”
“what’s the matter?”
“In order for a shaman to have a connection with another shaman, there should be no aftereffects.”
Naturally, the spirit felt bad about those words. Besides, if he said something like that when he was right next to him, wouldn’t that mean he was blatantly ignoring him?
Since Ju-myeong was Im-hyang’s guest, Gwi-ryeong-ja spoke to him in a good tone.
“The main text is also a proper martial arts school that has been active in the martial arts world.”
“No one here would think of Guimun as a martial arts sect.”
“What are you talking about? How much has the text contributed to the world of martial arts up until now?”
“Seo So-hyeop, do you think that Gui-mun’s magic is a legitimate martial art?”
For a moment, the spirit was unable to answer. He had never been asked that question before, so he did not know what to say.
“Martial arts and magic are completely different.”
As soon as Ju-myeong crossed the line, a loud voice echoed throughout the auditorium.
“Then let’s check out how you deal with the commoners with such great martial arts skills.”
The one who came forward was Seojin. When I saw him glaring at his opponent with one of his eyebrows slightly raised, I remembered the old days. Even back when I was a ronin, when I got angry, one of my eyebrows would go up like that.
As she extended her hand, a black haze rose up around the main character.
“Huh!”
The surprised Ju-myeong looked around and drew his sword.
“What? What is this?”
He began swinging his sword in the air. He must have been hallucinating.

And I could see what he was looking at. A dark shadow with only eyes and a mouth was rushing toward him. It was so scary and realistic that it made my heart shiver even though I knew it was an illusion.
And I also saw a method of destruction that would eliminate that illusion. It was the result of combining the Blood Anseongju and Shinanjutsu.
There was a possibility that people around him might get hurt as Ju-myeong was swinging his sword here and there.
As Seojin withdrew the spell, Ju Myeong, who was swinging his sword in the air, soon realized that he had fallen into a ghost spell. Even though he knew it was an illusion, he was swinging his sword without realizing it. Knowingly falling for it is the ghost spell of the ghost gate.
He glared at Seojin.
“I will never forgive you for insulting me with such sorcery… … .”
match!
His cheek turned. The person who walked up to him and slapped his cheek was Im Hyang.
“Do you want to die? Aren’t you going to sober up? Who do you dare not forgive?”
“you!”
“Are you really my friend? If you were my friend, wouldn’t you do this? You’re my only friend, and you make me feel so miserable?”
Ju-myeong was speechless at those words. The words, “You are my only friend,” seemed to have struck him like a dagger.
Joo-myung said with a short sigh.
“sorry.”
The anger that had been burning like a flame had already disappeared.
“I’m sorry for hitting you too.”
“It’s okay. You’ve been hit many times since you were little, right?”
Joo-myeong also apologized to Gwi-ryeong-ja and Seo-jin.
“I’m sorry. It was rude of me to disparage your family. I apologize.”
But there was a downside.
“But still, I don’t want this marriage! I’m against it!”
On that road, Ju-myeong left the place.
My gaze turned to the spirit.
Ghost, you should have been shouting like that.
‘I hate this marriage! Don’t congratulate me! Am I the only one who is against this marriage?’
The nobleman tried to scold Seojin for acting rashly, but Imhyang stopped him.
And then he apologized to the spirit.
“I’m sorry. We’ve been friends since we were little, so I guess he was really sad to hear that I was getting married.”
“Isn’t that because you care so much for Lady Im?”
“If you care about it, you shouldn’t do that. You’re just drinking and making a fuss. Forget it.”
I sighed inwardly as I watched the spirit’s gaze deepen as he looked at her.
‘I’m getting more and more into it.’
Today, I saw that Im Hyang was a good woman. If that spirit could accurately know and understand her personality, I thought that the two of them might get along well.
* * *
The nobleman stepped outside for a moment to get some fresh air during the banquet.
Although I didn’t show it in front of Im Hyang, for some reason my mood was getting lower and lower.
It was because of the order earlier. When he came forward to express his dissatisfaction, I kept regretting that I should have come forward.
Could it be that Im Hyang saw herself as a coward?
If I had stepped forward, I would have won. Should I have shown my skills properly once? No. My father was always wary of Gui-mun getting caught up in the conflicts of the martial arts world. What about the conflicts of the martial arts world? It’s just a fight between friends. I should have stepped forward!
The spirit’s mind was in disarray, going back and forth. He hated the sight of himself regretting it later on more than not having come forward.
As I was walking, lost in thought, I arrived at my own study.
He stood by the window and looked into the study. He felt most comfortable when he was here. Now that he thought about it, he always came here when he got scolded by his father or had some kind of problem. This was the only shelter and refuge for the spirit.
The spirits know.
That he is not a happy person when he subdues the main character and kneels down and says, “hahahaha.” He is the happiest person when he reads books, studies, investigates, and is quiet.
‘By the way, I have to show this to Lady Im.’
I wanted to brag to Im Hyang about how much I read. I felt that way more than usual today.
Then someone said,
“You really have a lot of books.”
The nobleman looked back in surprise.
Behind him stood I, who had followed him.
“I was feeling stuffy so I came out to get some air, and before I knew it I ended up here.”
“I see.”
“I think this is the first time I’ve seen someone in the martial arts world with this many books.”
“I liked reading books since I was little.”
“I see. There is someone around me who likes books.”
“Oh, really? Please introduce me next time you have a chance.”
“Yes, that’s right.”
I thought of the terrified expression on the ghost’s face when he found out that the opponent was Blood Heavenly Demon. I couldn’t help but laugh when I thought of Blood Heavenly Demon’s displeased face as he looked at the ghost.
Together, we walked naturally towards the main hall.
“Gongja Seo and Sojo Im, the more I look at you two, the more I see that you two look great together.”
“If you’re just trying to console me because of what happened earlier, then that’s fine. I’ve forgotten everything.”
“It seemed like jealousy to me. But I can understand that petty behavior. If a friend I’ve liked for a long time gets married, I’d want to go over there and throw a party.”
I relieved the spirit of the nobleman. Whether or not I could stop his marriage, I had to become somewhat friendly with him to do so.
And the quickest way to get to know someone is to tell them what they want to hear.
“One day, that bastard will wake up and drink some cold water and say, ‘Why did I do something so stupid back then?’”
The spirit laughed at those words. Since that made him feel bad, he should solve it with that.
“You have endured it well. If you had not endured it, someone who suddenly wakes up from sleep would have become Confucius.”
The spirit stopped walking, looked at me, and suddenly asked.
“Have we perhaps met before?”
Ghostly soul, what kind of fate do you feel? Well, I guess you can feel something.
“This is my first time meeting you.”
“But when you look at the small group, it doesn’t seem unfamiliar.”
“There are people who, even when you first meet them, feel comfortable as if you’ve known them for a long time. Like friends. You trust them for no reason. You want to take care of them.”
“Not to that extent.”
“Maybe it’s because I liked Confucius from the beginning. I respect him even more after reading the book just now.”
I kept lowering his guard by saying nice things to him. Even the worn-out Bloodthirsty Demon and the most evil Demon were no match for my flattery, so it was no problem for him to get close to this young spirit.
And the most important thing about this flattery is that you have to do it in moderation and back off sharply when you need to. You have to give him time to chew on what you said and feel good about it.
“Okay, then I’ll go in first.”
I left him behind and entered the main hall.
* * *
On the way back from the banquet, I asked Ian.
“How was Seojin?”
It was Ian who had been talking to Seojin throughout the banquet.
“I liked it. It was great as a promotion.”
“My recommendations never fail.”
“There’s just one problem.”
“Are you saying she will commit herself to our school?”
“yes.”
“Gwimun is originally a sect of Jeongsaji. Among the ancestors of Gwimun in the past, there were some who were members of our sect. If you persuade them well, there won’t be a problem.”
“You know a lot about ghosts, don’t you?”
“I studied a bit before coming.”
In fact, it was something I had heard from Seo Jin in the past. When he was a ronin, Seo Jin did not want to be tied down to a faction. He did not want to belong to any one place, and that was why he was a person who could go anywhere.
“We’ll have to return to the main school soon anyway, so we can’t take her with us. Just make sure she comes to visit later.”
One day, when you feel suffocated and run away from home, you just have to find Ian and not the life of a ronin.
“You know? If you want to contact us, just leave your name at the West Lake Guest Houses located throughout the Central Plains.”
“I’ll make sure to tell you when we break up later.”
Separately from Ian, I plan to pay attention to Seojin’s actions separately. So that the great line of destiny can lead to Ian.
“By the way, what about you, Young Master? How did things go about stopping the marriage?”
“It’s a change of operation.”
It was a decision I made after seeing the nobleman and the incense burner at the banquet hall today.
Kwak Bang-ju of our school’s iron room always says that small differences make a luxury product.
I believe that this also applies to human relationships. Small differences can change the outcome. Even if you can’t change people, you can change relationships.
We are moved by a single word and remain loyal for our whole lives, we break up because we are upset by a single word, and we hate each other for our whole lives because of a single word. That’s who we are.
So my new plan was this:
“We will not prevent the marriage of the spirits, but we will ensure that the two people live happily.”
You can’t do it, you rascal. You must get married. But instead, I will open a different gate for you, not the gates of hell.
