Absolute Regression Chapter 308

Episode 308: Without even knowing the feelings of the person next to you.

I thought it was fortunate that the traitor was the Demon Lord.

What if one of the other Amazons was a traitor? Even if he lived a different life in this one, I wouldn’t feel comfortable looking at him.

Now I could guess one thing.

The Murim Alliance had Baek Cheon-gyeong, and our religion had Seop Hon Ma-jon, so there must be someone plotting in the Sadomaeng as well.

Rather, I felt hopeful. Until now, the fire weapon had felt like a natural disaster. Humans were absolute beings that could not be stopped. However, I now know that those events were the result of long years of meticulous preparation.

Cheongseon’s two eyes returned completely to normal.

When she came to her senses, she sighed as she discovered Saujong’s corpse in front of her.

Then he saw me there and was startled.

“Little leader?”

Soon she began to blame herself. She was normal in everything except the fact that she had been seduced. She also clearly remembered that she had been unable to bear it and had seduced Saujong.

“I fell for his provocation.”

Cheongseon looked down at the corpse with a complicated look, as if she had not intended to kill him like this. Still, they were once in a relationship, but they met this fate.

“I don’t have the face to meet the sect leader.”

Her voice trembled slightly. She seemed to feel apologetic and embarrassed for killing Saujong after telling him to leave it to her.

“I really don’t understand. That guy acted like he was going to kill me. He was like that last time, but today he was really determined.”

I comforted her since it had already happened.

“It seems like he wanted to die at the hands of the Amazons. If he had decided to die and provoked me, there would have been nothing he could do.”

“No, no matter what you said, I should have held back more.”

She was truly regretting it. Yes, if she is to live as a Amazon from now on, she must be able to control her emotions in the face of any provocation. This incident will be a great experience for her.

“He deserved to die. However, Saujong is a warrior belonging to the Bukcheon Swordsmanship, so we cannot just bury the incident like this.”

A look of worry crossed Cheongseon’s face. If this issue were to come up, it would be a topic of gossip.

“Amazon.”

“Yes, Young Master.”

“Can you trust me till the end?”

Cheongseon’s eyes trembled slightly. There is nothing more powerful to someone than being their support when they are cornered. She nodded.

“Leave the rest to me and go back for now. I will dispose of your body at Hwangcheon Pavilion.”

Cheongseon, who was about to turn around, asked me.

“But how did you find out about this place?”

Because I can’t tell you about the refund.

“I was conducting a secret investigation on Saujong. I heard that he went to meet the Demon Lord, so I came here to see why he was thinking of meeting the Demon Lord.”

“I see. It may be an embarrassing thing to say, but I will leave the rest to the young cult leader.”

Cheongseon politely bowed and left.

I was left alone and looked down at Saujong’s corpse. I had said that I knew the weakness of Ilhwageomjon, but it was buried forever with his death.

Welcome.

It is no different from its personality before its regression. It was just used to its full potential and then eliminated.

If Hwan-yeo is in the flower garden, where is Hwan-wang? Is he near here? Or is he somewhere else?

* * *

After leaving the guest room, I went straight back to Hwangcheon Pavilion.

When I suddenly ran out while we were talking, Seo Dae-ryong was wondering what was going on. If Seo Dae-ryong hadn’t brought up the flower pot story, he wouldn’t have thought of Hwan-yeo.

“Sauzong is dead.”

Seo Dae-ryong was shocked. He had just reported the results of his investigation, and now he was told that he had died.

“As expected! When the leader of the sect runs out, the evildoers inevitably die.”

I shook my head at his half-joking, half-serious remark.

“This time it’s not me.”

“Then who killed him?”

“The devil is subordinate.”

Seo Dae-ryong asked in surprise.

“What on earth is going on?”

I only told Seo Dae-ryong that the person behind this incident was the owner of the flower garden.

“That woman used the Saujong to cast a spell on the soul of the devil.”

“Is that possible? Oh, of course, the Subhonmazone is still young.”

“Still, it’s not easy. The opponents are not easy.”

Seo Dae-ryong had a serious expression on his face. It was a conspiracy against none other than the Amazon.

“Do you know who the lady in the flower garden is?”

Even though he was Seo Dae-ryong, he couldn’t tell her that her true identity was Hwan-yeo, so he shook his head.

“Stop the special investigation and monitor the Hwawon. Secretly, with the capable ones. They are the ones plotting against the Amazons. Just have them monitor the major routes from afar. Then send the executors to collect the bodies of the Saujong.”

“All right.”

It was not possible to predict how Hwan-yeo would react. Since she had been given the soul-binding spell, it was unknown whether she would leave this place for now or stay nearby to manage the soul-binding spell that had been cast on her by the soul-binding demon lord.

“What are you going to do now?”

This matter cannot be resolved by me and Hwangcheon-gak alone. Not only does the soul-binding spell not work on me, but it also cannot remove the soul-binding spell from someone else.

“I should send a letter telling him to come back immediately.”

“To whom?”

“To the only person who can solve this problem.”

I am the only one, but when I come, there will be two people.

* * *

“I lost.”

The old man admitted defeat. He was a person known in the neighborhood for being good at playing Go. About a month ago, a young man came to him and asked to learn, so he taught him for a certain amount of money per game.

At first, he played a game of handicap because his skill level was different, but his skill improved with each game, and before he knew it, he was beating him. Now, his skill has improved to an extent that is hard to believe.

“How did your skills improve so quickly? Did you deceive me from the beginning?”

The person who learned Go from the old man was Go Yue. He smiled, put the tuition fee down next to the Go board, and stood up.

“I learned a lot during that time.”

It was a final greeting that conveyed the intention that he would not come to learn anymore.

“Just one more round!”

But the old man had already lost three games in a row.

“Don’t be too upset. It’s thanks to your elders who taught me well.”

After greeting them politely, Gowol left the place.

The leader of the Pungcheon Church, who was watching from the side, said a word to the old man.

“That’s right. The author was a Go master from the beginning. He was a wicked man, so he deceived him from the beginning. He wanted to fool the old man and show him how to turn the game around.”

But the old man did not sympathize with him at all. The sparks of defeat flew to the leader of the Fengchun sect.

“Your appearance is more sinister.”

The leader of the Pungcheon squatted down next to the old man.

“Oh, is that because you only play baduk? You don’t know how to read people. I’ve never heard anyone call me a mean person in my entire life.”

“Since he looked sinister to begin with, wouldn’t everyone have been careful? He probably wouldn’t have had the opportunity to be sinister.”

The leader of the Pungcheon sect, who had been trying to make fun of Gowol for no reason but ended up being a sinister person, got angry.

“I am a martial arts master. You shouldn’t speak so carelessly.”

“I’ll be eighty-seven in two days. What am I going to do?”

The two men had a heated staring contest. I’m an old man who would rather die tomorrow, and the leader of the Pungcheon Church was pushed back by his invincible momentum.

At that moment, from far away, Gowol called out to the leader of the Pungcheon sect.

“What are you doing? Come quickly!”

The leader of the Pungcheon sect scattered the stones on the board like a grumpy child.

“It’s good to be old!”

I flew up and landed on Gowol, who was standing in front of the gate. Behind him, I heard the old man shouting, “Ekki, you wicked bastard!”

Two people left the house.

“There is nothing to fear when you are old.”

“How could he not be scared? He must have sensed that our leader is a kind person. He read the numbers.”

“Why do you treat people so well when they look down on you?”

“Honestly, you didn’t treat me well, did you? You would always complain, saying you were bored, hungry, and when would it end.”

“What? You’ve become close with your baduk teacher? Did you two make a plan?”

Gowol smiled and quickened his pace.

“Now let’s go to the next branch.”

“Let’s go again? Now that I’ve become a master at baduk, let’s go back.”

Go-wol said he wouldn’t return until he became a Go master, but in fact, that was an excuse, and he was putting all his effort into making sure that Eun-wol, the intelligence organization, was running properly. He was going around each branch, checking and inspecting, and even without a leader, he was trying to make sure that everything was running smoothly and systematically.

“Even if I do this, the leader won’t understand. When you need me, just show up and help me with this, teach me this! As expected, you’re our high-ranking soldier! I’ll just praise you with words.”

Then I looked back. I looked back just in case because whenever I cursed, a sword dance appeared behind me.

“You don’t want the young cult leader to come, do you?”

“What are you talking about!”

Sometimes I wanted to see Geommu-geuk. So sometimes I would curse Geommu-geuk more. While saying, “You’re cursing me again,” I hoped Geommu-geuk would appear.

“That idiot forgot about us. He made us so much money.”

Except for the highest level information sent to Geommu-geuk, any information that could be sold was sold to the martial arts people. The profits from this were used to run the organization.

Although Tongcheon-gak was directly operated by the Cheonmasingyo, Eunwol was different. It was impossible to operate this vast organization, which spread like a spider web throughout the Central Plains, with only Geommu-geuk’s money.

“The scholar is greedy.”

“You’re not a greedy person. The last time you came, you gave me a lot of money. You even gave me orders to use it for personal use.”

“If you made me suffer that much, then of course you should give it to me. But me? Why are you the only one giving it to me?”

“The leader is rich, isn’t he?”

“Where is that law? Isn’t it true that the rich are suffering?”

At that moment, Gowol said something unexpected.

“I have to take care of that hardship.”

“Why you?”

“The leader’s voluntary suffering was for me, wasn’t it? Not because of the sub-leader.”

Then, Go-wol took something out of his bosom and handed it to the leader of the Pungcheon sect.

The leader of the Fengchun sect was surprised when he saw what it was. It was a house document. What was even more surprising was that the owner was the leader of the Fengchun sect.

“You wanted a house in Jungwon, right? It’s the leader’s house.”

The hands of the leader of the Pungcheon sect holding the house deed trembled.

The leader of the Pungcheon sect wanted to have a house in the central plains. While drinking with Go-wol, he would sometimes mention that he wanted to buy a house. When he was the leader of the Pungcheon sect, he had a grand dream of advancing to the central plains, but he said that it was difficult to freely roam the central plains and buy a small house.

The moment I bought a house in Jungwon, I felt like I was leaving the outside world and truly settling down in Jungwon.

“I bought it with the money I received from the cult leader this time and my previous monthly salary.”

“Why are you buying this!”

Gowol answered indifferently.

“I wish the leader had a house. This is my gift.”

The leader of the Fengchun Church was secretly moved. He had received countless more precious gifts in the past, but he had never been this happy.

“I have a lot of money.”

“I know. I could buy hundreds more houses like that.”

“There must be thousands!”

“But you didn’t buy a single one? Why didn’t you buy one? When we were going around the Central Plains, we could have bought one in each region.”

The leader of the Fengchun sect said nothing. Go-wol was looking straight into his mind.

“I wondered if I should buy this. But I was the previous leader of the Pungcheon Church. I felt sorry for my juniors who were outside of the church.”

How did you know? I definitely had that kind of feeling.

“I’m not sorry! Why should I be sorry? I even let the leader do it and I took care of each person’s seat.”

Then Go-wol gave another reason.

“You must have noticed the younger cult leader. You were out helping the military, but now you’re buying a house! You didn’t want to see that kind of appearance, did you?”

Of course, I had this thought too. How well did he know his own mind?

“Why are you concerned about what other people think? I live with my own money.”

“Then why didn’t you buy it?”

But there was a more decisive reason than that.

The leader of the Pungcheon Church explained the reason with an expression that said, “Do you not understand my feelings?”

“I can’t live alone just because I like it. If I buy a house, I should buy two houses nearby and live as neighbors. I can’t buy just because I like it. I should discuss it with you and buy it. How can I ask you to go look at houses when you’re so busy working? Why? You don’t like it? You don’t want to live next door to me?”

Their gazes met in the air.

The leader of the Pungcheon Church spoke as if spitting out a message, averting his gaze.

“How can you be a soldier when you don’t even know the feelings of the people next to you? You bastard, you chose the wrong person! You should have brought that baduk teacher over and made him a soldier! That old man who is good at guessing things is a hundred times better than me.”

Then, Gowol took something out of his bosom.

“So I bought another house nearby. This one is in my name.”

The leader of the Pungcheon sect stood there for a moment as if he had lost his mind. After staring blankly at Gowol for a while, he suddenly asked.

“Isn’t it smaller than my house?”

Gowol laughed loudly.

“I know our leader’s personality well, so there’s no way he would do that. I bought a small one.”

“Okay then.”

“The leader’s house is incomparable to the house I used to live in. Don’t be disappointed when you see it later and think it’s small.”

“You should be disappointed. I’m the leader of the Pungcheon cult! I was the leader of the previous Pungcheon cult!”

The leader of the Pungcheon Church looked at the distant mountains. He felt like crying when he saw Gowol. It was nice to receive a house, but he was ten times happier when Gowol bought his own house next to it. That was the real gift.

‘Later, I will build your house the biggest in the Central Plains. I will build you a house bigger than Lee Gongja’s.’

This was the mind of the leader of the Pungcheon sect.

It was then that a subordinate came to them and delivered a message.

“Who is it?”

“Your Majesty.”

“How can I not curse at you? On this wonderful day, why did you send me a letter to make me do something? Tell me you can’t do it! Tell me you won’t do it!”

Gowol handed over a letter to the leader of the Pungcheon sect.

“You need the leader’s help, not me?”

At that moment, the leader of the Pungcheon sect opened his eyes wide in surprise.

“Me? Me, not you? Are you sure? You really need my help?”

“Cult leader, I need your help so please come back quickly.”

The leader of the Pungcheon Church raised his shoulders toward the sky and threw a fit of rage.

“What? You don’t have any new water to take away, so now you’re going to order me around?”

“Then should I send a letter saying I can’t go?”

The leader of the Pungcheon Church said that he could not win.

“Let’s go back and look at the new house we bought!”

“I followed him as he walked briskly,” said Gowol.

“The house we bought is on the opposite side of the road to the main building?”

The leader of the Pungcheon Church pretended not to hear and walked quickly.

Go-wol followed with a smile. Finally, they were returning to the main unit. It was a pleasant return after having definitely completed the mission of creating an information organization.

This time, unlike at the Baduk teacher’s house, the leader of the Pungcheon Church gestured and urged me in front of him.

“What are you doing? Come quickly!”
