Episode 13 My temper is even worse.
“Demon Lord. Name Gucheonyang. He is the younger brother of the Blood Heavenly Demon Gucheonpa. It has been eight years since I became Demon Lord, and through carrying out various dangerous missions, I have raised Demon Lord to the status of an elite organization recognized by all.”
Seo Dae-ryong also knew about the Demon Lord well.
“It means the job was done well.”
“That’s right.”
“Can I see the complaint that came in this time?”
“Yes, here it is.”
He showed me the complaint.
The content, written crookedly as if trying to deceive the handwriting, was very simple.
-Serious corruption has occurred within the Demon Army. Investigation required.
After looking down at it for a while, Seo Dae-ryong asked.
“Why are you doing that?”
“Let’s imagine this. There is corruption within the Hwangcheon Pavilion. You found out about it.”
I looked at Seo Dae-ryong and asked.
“So, are you going to send a complaint?”
“If it were me, I wouldn’t send it.”
Seo Dae-ryong’s answer was without hesitation.
“Right? It’s none of your business.”
“No, that’s not it.”
“then?”
“Nothing will change even if you send a complaint.”
There was a sense of defeatism in his answer, which was blurted out without thinking.
“Your Hwangcheon-gak exists to change the main school, right?”
“To be exact, we are the sword used by those who want to change our school. We are not the main character.”
“If the higher-ups don’t change, the school won’t change?”
“I never said anything like that.”
But his expression was, ‘Isn’t that so?’ He had a gloomy air to begin with, so this cynical and pessimistic thought suited him well.
“Anyway, this person sent a complaint. He thinks he’ll die if he gets caught for this. You can tell just by looking at his handwriting. But why did he send a complaint? As you said, nothing will change even if he does this.”
Instead of Seo Dae-ryong who didn’t answer, Ian stepped forward and answered.
“It’s unlikely that he sent it because he was righteous… … Could it be that he has a grudge against the person who committed corruption?”
“That makes sense.”
I nodded and returned the complaint to Seo Dae-ryong.
“Anyway, we absolutely must find this guy. If we look easy, he will never show himself.”
“Yes, I think so too.”
“How is it? Can you do it?”
“I have to. I already received the order and came here.”
“What I’m saying is that it’s really dangerous. The Demon Lord might be involved. Aren’t you scared?”
“yes.”
“Did you know that the investigator died last time?”
“I know. The investigator who died at that time was my direct senior.”
“Oh, I see.”
“You were the shooter who taught me.”
There was a sense of sadness in his calm words. Could it be that he was memorizing the information of all the demons belonging to the Demon Army because he wanted to avenge his dead senior?
“Do you feel sad when you think of him?”
“He passed away so vainly.”
“It’s not a meaningless death. That death brought you and me here. And you should be afraid. They are the ones who killed the Hwangcheon Pavilion investigators and even murdered their colleagues. In short, they are the ones who have no future.”
“I don’t want to be scared by those dirty guys.”
I could tell for sure from these words. He wanted to take revenge on his senior. There was great anger sleeping in that small body.
“Okay, then shall we go and investigate?”
As I was leaving the residence with Seo Dae-ryong, Ian followed me.
“Master! Please take me too.”
She thought that investigating the demon army was dangerous.
“No, it’s an official mission. Now is the time to take a break.”
She needs to get away from me.
Ian, who had been watching us walking away with concern, suddenly looked around.
I sent out a blast of energy and stroked her head once.
Don’t worry, Ian. I’ve come a long way for days like this.
* * *
The Demon Dragon Temple, where the demons reside, was located in the western area of the main temple.
As expected of an elite organization, the building was large and the facilities were very good.
When I arrived at the entrance of the Dragon Garden with Seodaeryong, two Mines blocked my way. As expected of a large demon, these gatekeepers were twice the size of an average person.
“Where are you from?”
“This is Hwangcheon-gak Special Investigator Seo Dae-ryong. Get out of the way!”
Seo Dae-ryong was small in stature but strong.
But despite his force, the two mines were not nervous or scared at all. Instead, they mocked him.
“Special investigator? Doesn’t seem special at all?”
One of them spoke softly, as if he were talking to himself, but it was clearly heard because he was speaking for the audience to hear.
Before Nana Seodaeryong could say anything, another guy quickly stepped forward.

“You cannot enter without permission from above.”
Seo Dae-ryong issued an investigation order regarding this incident.
“The higher-ups are here. Here, the orders.”
“Please wait a moment. I will report this to my superiors.”
“We will meet your superiors in person. Get out of the way.”
I was just watching from behind to see how Seo Dae-ryong handled this matter.
“I told you not to enter without permission.”
“This order is a permit!”
Their voices became louder.
“What the hell are you talking about? If you’re here, you have to follow our laws.”
“dog sound?”
Seo Dae-ryong did not hesitate and kicked the shin of the man blocking his way without mercy.
Sigh.
“Ugh!”
The guy who had been grabbing my shin suddenly raised his fist.
“This kid!”
Seo Dae-ryong stood in his spot and glared at the bastard.
“Are you trying to hit the Hwangcheon Pavilion investigator?”
He didn’t dare to hit Seodaeryong. No matter how arrogant the demon lord was, if he assaulted the Hwangcheon Pavilion special investigator, he would be sent to the brain prison immediately.
“Oh my, you’re asking for the price of a mat after throwing away this rat-sized thing?”
This was exactly the level of the devil.
Of course, it wasn’t just the demons. There were countless demons in our school who lived according to their own nature without regard for right or wrong.
We don’t have magic.
There must have been a time when it existed, but it has now been lost.
There is no concern about why our school should exist in the martial arts world and what we should pursue in the future.
A group of evil people who are united by the false prejudice that cruelty and strength are justice and truth. If someone were to curse our church like this, I would be unable to refute them.
Seo Dae-ryong raised his voice.
“Move!”
“I told you to wait until your superior comes!”
They didn’t budge.
It is because of this reality that Seo Dae-ryong must have said this.
―Nothing will change even if you send a complaint.
The current struggle between these small bodies is a clear reflection of the reality of our school.
After watching for a while, I finally stepped forward.
“Do you know who I am?”
Even though I stepped forward, the momentum of the two men did not subside.
“I know.”
“You don’t seem to know? What if you did this even though you knew it was me?”
As soon as he finished speaking, I kicked his trouser without mercy. It seemed like kicking his shin wouldn’t solve the problem, so I kicked something more important.
puck!
“Eww!”
The bastard grabbed his lower body and rolled around.
“Why are you complaining about the price of the mat while I’m watching?”
My fist landed in the other guy’s bewildered face.
Bam!
The big guy was knocked out in one blow.
Seo Dae-ryong looked at him with a surprised face. It seemed he had not expected that the Demon Army would be beaten so openly.
“What are you doing? You have to take the lead.”
“Yes, let’s go.”
Seo Dae-ryong took the lead and I followed behind him.
As soon as the news reached them, a group of minions blocked their way before they could enter the main building.
“Move!”
When no one stepped aside, Seo Dae-ryong held out the order and spoke loudly.
“Can’t you see this? You are obstructing the investigation that has been officially ordered. Do you all want to rot in the brain prison?”
No matter how loudly I shouted, no one showed any sign of fear, only snorting. Furthermore, Seodaeryong was small, so I underestimated him even more.
The distance between them parted and a man walked out.
“What kind of kids come here and cause trouble?”
“I am Special Investigator Seo Dae-ryong. Please identify yourself.”
“This is the Demon Army’s highest party. Are you okay, you little punk?”
At that moment, Seo Dae-ryong quickly sent a message to me.
-This person is the one who is actually higher in the hierarchy. He is known as the most evil among the demons.
It seems that Godang saw him moving his lips as he sent the message.
“Is this guy so desperate to die? He dares to swear in front of people?”
The guys at the main gate and these guys were really arrogant. The reason they were ignoring me was because the Demon Lord’s own organization supported Hyung. The Demon Lord’s older brother, Blood Heavenly Demon, was also known as Hyung’s supporter. That’s why they were blatantly ignoring me like this.
“Your Majesty, I am a special investigator from the Hwangcheon Pavilion who has come down here under strict official orders. Be careful with your words!”
Seo Dae-ryong was confident even in front of Godang.
‘I like it.’
After seeing the trashy Bloodthirsty Demon’s disciples and the arrogant Demon Army, I felt my heart being purified when I saw Seodaeryong.
Godang glared at Seo Dae-ryong, perhaps because he didn’t like his attitude.
“Watch your words? What will happen if you don’t?”
“I will arrest everyone for obstructing the investigation of Hwangcheon-gak and insulting the investigators.”
“Arrest? Hahahahaha.”
When he laughed out loud, the subordinates around him also burst into laughter.
“If you can, try it!”
Even if the enforcement officers capable of exercising force had come together, these people would have come out like this.
Seo Dae-ryong looked back at me, unable to do anything else.
It’s time for me to step up again.
“Your Majesty, it’s been a while.”
I walked briskly toward Godang and shook his hand with a cheerful expression.
“When was the last time we saw each other? Was it at the last banquet? It’s nice to see you again.”
In contrast to my delight, Godang’s expression was not so good.
“I need to see the Demon Lord urgently, so please stop your gesture here and open the way for me.”
Then I walked inside with him.
The path opened naturally, and Seo Dae-ryong and I entered together, still holding hands.
His subordinates looked puzzled at the sight of Godang opening the way too easily compared to his initial momentum.
I walked down the hallway and said goodbye to Godang at the front of the stairs.
“I’ll buy you a drink next time.”
Seo Dae-ryong asked with a surprised face because he had opened the path and climbed the stairs so easily.
“Did you know Godang?”
“No. I just saw it for the first time today.”
“But how?”
“He’s going to have to eat with his left hand for a while. I broke his hand when we shook hands earlier.”
“I beg your pardon?”
Seo Dae-ryong screamed in surprise.
How could one not be surprised when he breaks the hand of the Demon Lord without even showing any sign of it?
“I had no idea that happened. But why didn’t he have his men attack?”
“Then it will be revealed what happened to you. You broke your hand while shaking hands? You can’t show it even if it means embarrassing yourself in front of your subordinates.”
Of course, it wasn’t just because of that. When Godang, whose hand was broken by the sudden surprise attack, tried to counterattack, I quickly sent a signal.
-If you mess with me, I’ll never be able to use this hand again.
He held the broken hand tightly as if he was going to crush it completely. Godang was frightened because there was a precedent where he had crushed the arm of the Blood Heavenly Demon disciple to the point where he could not recover.
“That foul-tempered bastard won’t just sit there and do nothing.”
“What if I just don’t have it?”
“I’ll do whatever it takes.”
“If you do that, your head will explode and you will die. This is a prophecy.”
Seo Dae-ryong looked at me with a look of renewed interest.
“Isn’t that respectable?”
“Your personality is… more than I thought.”
“Why did you stop talking? You said it was dirty?”
“… … .”
“Are you the type of person who can’t lie?”
“That’s why I get a lot of hate.”
“What is hated by one person may be liked by another.”
Seo Dae-ryong, who had been staring at me silently for a while, changed the subject.
“The Demon Lord’s office is on the seventh floor. Let’s go.”
“It’s unnecessarily high. Let’s go.”
So we walked up to the seventh floor.
