Episode 26
“at las.”
A girl covering her face with a thick cotton thread mutters as if she has infinite emotions. The girl had a small waist and a curvaceous body, as if she was just transitioning into womanhood, and just looking at her rough outline, it seemed like she was growing into a very beautiful woman.
but.
A sudden breeze lifted the cotton yarn slightly, revealing a bit of her skin. Surprisingly, wasn’t the lumpy texture reminiscent of a toad’s?
It wasn’t just a pimple or a pimple, but it felt like my skin had been completely damaged by contact with something toxic.
‘With the skills he showed back then, he would have definitely advanced to the Solitary Battle.’
The girl who was the leader of the 1st competitive team and commonly known as No. 2 remembered someone as she entered the new world of fighting.
“Of course.”
The voice he was spitting out was chilling. The grudge didn’t seem to be an ordinary grudge. That’s because it was natural that her face was ruined.
The girl’s identity was none other than Tang Yeongryeong. Thanks to her maternal grandfather, the powerful figure of her family, Elder Sam, she received the best treatment she could get immediately after the incident with her natural husband, but it was already too late.
It was possible to restore other parts, but even the members of the Medicine King Party said there was nothing they could do about the damaged face. This was because several poisons were complexly intertwined and transformed into a completely new poison. He said it was fortunate that the poison was completely removed and his life was not in danger.
I wanted to use my grandfather’s authority to bring him to his knees and sever his limbs, but there was no way. Cleverly, after he did this, he went straight to Amdokjeon and told him that he would participate in the cattle competition. They took advantage of the fact that if they participate in the competition and become qualified as a prospective Sogaju, they will be exempt from anything that happens within the family.
‘Huh, the young guy’s heart is amazing! ‘I guess it can’t be helped.’
My maternal grandfather, Dang Seok-hyung, the three elders, also found out about this and gave up. Of course, he was furious that his beloved granddaughter was treated harshly, but the Soga head competition was not simply a place to decide the Soga head. It was an opportunity to acquire justification, power, and force that could control the next party. Not only the key figures of the family with intelligent children, but also the elders, using their blood relatives or disciples, jumped in.
This was the reason why, no matter how powerful the three elders, Dang Seok-hyung, was, he could not touch the Sogaju competition. There were too many people involved. And there was also the fact that her granddaughter, Tang Yeongryeong, was trying not to do anything that would cause even the slightest bit of blemish on the situation as she was participating in the contest.
The three elders, Tang Seok-hyung, judged calmly. It’s better not to touch it now. There was more harm than good.
‘Be patient. Young spirit. Anyway, that bastard can handle as much as he wants if you are the main cow. Or… you could just get rid of it inside. What happens in the final exam has been decided to be left to the public.’
Tang Yeongryeong, who was young at the time, was furious as his confident face was ruined and his pride collapsed, but he decided to follow his maternal grandfather’s advice. Isn’t there an old saying? It is said that it is not too late for a gentleman’s revenge even if it takes ten years.
One thing I was concerned about was being assigned to the same group as Yeon-myeong, but perhaps my maternal grandfather had some hand in it, and that unfortunate event did not happen. Moreover, luckily, he ended up in the same group as Tang Wen-chan, who had one of his arms disabled, but Tang Wen-chan quickly acknowledged that he had no chance and sided with Tang Yeong-ryeong.
How dare you talk about this asshole…!
Tang Yeongryeong secretly despised him, but he felt regretful.
‘If I become the head of Soga, I will find a way to fix your arm.’
And in the end, the choice was right. I never thought there would be such restrictions after becoming a temporary leader. Although my strength improved considerably after taking Cheonshinpill, it was not easy to win in a fight against three Chowons. Because he had included Tang Mun-chan, he was able to rise to the rank of official leader relatively easily.
And when he became an official commander, the Zhuge family’s military officer who was managing the camp secretly contacted him.
‘No. 2. What do you think of our Zhuge family?’
‘…For what purpose are you asking that?’
‘The Zhuge family wishes to form a close relationship with the next head of the Tang family.’
‘If it’s a close relationship…?’
‘I’m talking about a relationship where we give and receive what we need from each other. For example, wouldn’t we be able to help you ascend to the throne of Sogaju?’
‘How can I help you?’
‘The final test, Solitude Battle. ‘Think about whose hands decorated the stage.’
‘Will you help me through Jinbeop?’
‘exactly. It can put you in an overwhelmingly advantageous position. You can make other participants collide with each other first, or you can encourage tired or injured participants to move towards you.’
To be honest, it was an attractive offer. However, Tang Yeongryeong, who had seen his maternal grandfather at the center of power since he was young, knew. There was no proposal that was too sweet.
‘So, what does he gain?’
‘The next head of the small family… No, it would be a debt to the person who will become the next head of the family. I’ll be honest. It has been a long time since our Zhuge family decided that it would no longer be possible to revive like before. So, the main opinion of the main family is that we would rather be subjugated to the family that once belonged to the same five generations. However, if we just join your family, wouldn’t we also have a narrow place to stand?’
‘So you’re helping me.’
‘exactly. There is nothing more reassuring than having the next head of the party at your side.’
‘But wouldn’t I be able to go then and reject you… the Zhuge family? In a way, your existence itself could be my weakness.’
‘Hehe. So we want to provide you with solid strength. So that they don’t abandon us, no, they can’t abandon us.’
‘…….’
‘For now, we will be your backs. If you promise to marry your main family here!’
‘Marriage…? ‘Do you think I look like some kind of idiot and dare to say something like that?’
‘Of course, I know that your appearance has faded for some reason. But appearance is only a thing of the past anyway. It can be said that among the famous late exponents of the original family, there are very few who are deceived by appearances. How do you feel? I will give you the one with the most outstanding appearance among them as your companion.’
It was a proposal that the party leader could not help but be shaken by. To be honest, as a woman, she must have suffered greatly because her face was ruined. Even if she found a man she loved one day, she didn’t think he would love her. Who likes a woman with such hideous looks like this?
Yes, if that’s going to happen anyway, wouldn’t it be right to use even marriage for one’s future?
Tang Yeongryeong reached that conclusion. She didn’t think it would be a bad idea to have the most handsome man among the later Jisoos of the Zhuge family as her husband.
Her maternal grandfather also hoped that she would take the position of Sogaju, even if it meant using everything available to her.
‘Let me make one thing clear.’
‘what…?’
‘Our family has a tradition of son-in-laws.’
‘Of course I know. Whoever marries you will use the Tang family name.’
‘Then, naturally, the offspring born from my body will also be of the Tang clan.’
‘…Of course.’
In this way, secret negotiations with the Zhuge family were established.
“I want to see you soon.”
For the past three years, I have been training only thinking about the day when I would tear this guy to death. Now that he had the support of the Zhuge family on his back, it was a given that he would win the competition for Sojiajou.
Buuuuk!
Is it because it is a new fighting world where solitary warfare unfolds? Or has there been some kind of change of heart?
Tang Yeongryeong suddenly grabbed the cotton thread that had been covering his face and tore it off.
Then her ugly face is revealed clearly under the sunlight. Not only was the skin lumpy, but it also seemed to be weighed down and oozing ooze in some places, giving it a hideous appearance that would make anyone who saw it frown.
“Because I don’t want you to recognize me.”
As she said that and smiled eerily, her eyes were shining with an evil mixture of anticipation, joy, hatred, and even strange madness.
“Look forward. “I will kill you with the most terrible poison in the world.”
****
Same time.
Under the guidance of Zhuge Changxin, Yeon Myeong had stepped into the new world of fighting methods prepared for solitude warfare.

‘It’s pretty good.’
Originally, the seven battle battles were a battle method whose main purpose was to build a separate battle world. Even if an intruder happened, the intruder would only enter one of the true worlds, so the remaining six true worlds could be said to be safe. Moreover, in some cases, it was possible to launch a counterattack by turning the world of the intruder into an environment in which it was difficult to survive, so it was truly worthy of being called an extreme battle.
However, by overlapping the worlds of the battles created in this way, they went so far as to build a new world of the battles that was connected to one, so it could truly be called the Zhuge family, a collection of masters of the battles.
It was a highly technical method that most people would not even dare to guess what its principles were. However, Yeon Myeong had a lot of sense.
With a sense of strength strengthened through the Jumang station that reached Daeseong, Yeon Myeong gained insight into how the Seven Crusades Ring Palace was structured. More precisely, we wanted to understand the structure of this new world of battles prepared for lone warfare.
‘There’s no need to waste time.’
Once you understand the structure of how the world of binary systems works, you will be able to easily find out the locations of other participants.
The intention was to finish the competition quickly.
‘hmm?’
Suddenly, Yan Yanming felt some disturbing gaze. An unpleasant feeling as if your every move is being scrutinized.
‘…I was told that no one would know the progress of the Solitary War.’
A certain intuition crossed my mind. Zhuge Changxin’s man with a good smile. Maybe there was some kind of plot hidden behind that smile. It was Zhuge Changsin, who had a habit of talking about the fairness of the competition, but was he planning to intervene in the competition at the end?
Putting aside the questions that came to mind in an instant.
Yeon Myeong took out a shuriken. Since we had come this far anyway, it didn’t matter what tricks the Zhuge family did. Because he will be the one who wins the competition anyway.
widely.
It looked like it was lightly kicking the floor, but soon the new model of the natural name turned white and disappeared as if evaporating. The Gajeon new law of the Tang family, secretly a movement that is comparable to that of the Salsu school, is a shadowy display.
It was one breath later, in the air, that Yeon Yeom-myeong, who had disappeared, reappeared.
‘It’s an intrusive gaze, just get rid of it.’
With a thought in mind, I lightly swing the shuriken.
At first glance, it seemed like a waste of time, but the result was not like that.
The sword strike wielded by the Sword God was able to cut through even invisible things.
Wow!
The space was torn apart along with the sound of something cracking.
