Episode 57
Bird, bird speaks!
I touched the bridge of my nose with my index finger and thumb.
It’s absurd, but how can it be this absurd?
This was the first time something like this had happened.
“I told you to give him mental training so I could interrogate him, not to make him lose his mind?”
“That, that’s because he is a human who has built a high level while alive-“
“Did you think your willpower would be that high?”
“That’s right!”
“So that’s why you beat him up so hard without looking back?”
「… … .」
「… … .」
The ghosts all became one.
An attitude of unwillingness to answer in unison.
It seemed like he was trying to protect himself, for fear of being picked on and tormented by me for no reason.
But then, all of a sudden, Fifteen-Ho intervened and knelt down in front of me.
“Soma! Punish Soma, Lord Soma!!”
Why is this guy like this again?
Onma and the other ghosts’ expressions were also blank, as if this had not been discussed in advance at all.
“Seniors! Seniors are not at fault! This is all Soma’s fault! When he heard that the youngest was coming, Soma finally felt that he had a way to repay the sect leader’s kindness, so he was so motivated that he stopped-“
Do you see this?
This guy uses his brain in an amazing way!
If I’m going to get hit anyway, it’s better to get hit first.
I had absolutely nothing to lose because I could get points if I was impressed by the way he took care of others first.
It was absurd, but I could forgive it to this extent.
“Yes. If you are too ambitious, that can happen. Fifteenth is normal. Step aside.”
Fifteenth Ho raised his head. It was a bright smile that he had never smiled before, even when he was alive.
“I am so grateful!!”
Fifteenth Ho quickly ran next to me.
Only then did the other ghosts come to their senses and they all started to cast the Five-Chetoji.
“Please contact me, Young Master!!”
“It’s Soma’s fault!”
“No! It happened because Soma hit that guy’s head with a club! Please punish Soma!”
“The author’s words are not true! Soma hit him fourteen times, and some of them-“
“Soma-“
These things are getting weaker and weaker, so if they get caught up in something, they just cling to it.
But what should I do?
The carriage has already left, kids.
“It’s all your fault?”
“No! It’s Soma’s fault!”
“Please punish Soma!”
“It’s my fault for not following the cult leader’s orders properly!”
It was really nice to see both of us admitting our mistakes and showing deep camaraderie.
“Okay. So let’s break it down: you hit the back of the head, you and you grabbed the leg, you hit the face, and-”
I pointed out the mistakes they had made, one by one, to each of the ghosts.
The ghosts raised their heads.
Isn’t this it?
Faces filled with some bewilderment.
I smiled brightly.
“There’s nothing I can do since everyone is asking me to punish them all. I have to punish them all.”
“Oh, my lord?”
“That, that’s true, ha-“
“Drop down and stretch out in order, immediately.”
「!!」
“That, that!”
“Huh? You’re not going to do it?”
“Eek! I will do it! Of course I will do it!”
“Here! I will stand here!”
As I watched the ghosts performing the prostration one by one, I handed the club to Fifteen.
“Let’s take turns hitting each of them in the butt with this.”
“Ha, Haona-“
“Why? You too? Then-”
“Oh, no! I will follow the orders of the cult leader!!”
Fifteenth Ho’s hand trembled as he received the club.
It wouldn’t be easy to directly beat up the seniors who had been keeping a close eye on you.
but.
Gulp!
Fifteen-ho swallowed dry saliva and suddenly his eyes turned fierce.

and.
Bam!
“Gyaaook!”
“next!”
“Okay, wait a minute! Fifteen! If there’s any misunderstanding between us, let’s resolve it through conversation- Gyaaook!”
Bam! Bam! Bam!
Fifteen-ho swung his club with great enthusiasm like a fish in water.
I knew it from the moment you put on the clothes.
Fifteenth, that guy would be a very useful guy if he wore the armband.
Look at it now.
It’s really flying.
I felt like I could finally get revenge on the ghosts who had been meddlesome to me, calling me my seniors, but I couldn’t seem to get my feet to touch the ground.
Okay, that’s enough punishment for the ghosts.
“Hehehehehe.”
I narrowed my eyes as I looked at Baek-san, who was still smiling brightly.
“Hey, can we stop now?”
Drool was still flowing from Baeksan’s mouth.
“Hehehe. I’m human, I’m human. Let’s play. Let’s play with me.”
“Do you think I’ll just destroy you without doing anything?”
“Hehehehehe.”
Are you saying that a master who pioneered such great feats while alive would lose his mind after being questioned a little?
You have to say something reasonable.
I put my hand on the guy’s face and blew the black dragon energy into him.
Woohoo!
Then, as the cold, pure energy was applied, Baek-san’s wounds healed quickly.
“That, that! Gyawk!”
“What we didn’t receive! Aaah!”
As jealousy filled the faces of the ghosts, Baek-san’s hazy eyes regained focus.
“…Shit.”
Baek San-do frowned, perhaps thinking that it was pointless to continue acting.
Surely you never thought that I would blow negative energy into your soul and restore its damaged spirit.
“Are you finally coming to your senses?”
“Just destroy me. There’s nothing you can learn from me anyway.”
Baeksan’s eyes shone brightly.
Beyond the pupils, a strong will to never break was visible.
He probably won’t budge even with a little bit of questioning.
Even though it was embarrassing to himself, he still pretended to be out of his mind.
Even after death, this kind of loyalty exists.
I thought, this is also a thing.
but.
The more they did that, the better I liked it.
A smile appeared on his lips.
“Well, it’s up to me whether I can figure it out or not.”
I rolled up my sleeves.
“Actually, unlike Baekgolmangsa, I wish you would hold out until the end.”
“…what.”
“It wouldn’t be fun if I just gave in too easily. I have to hold on as long as I can and hold on for as long as I can to have fun.”
「!!」
The believers of the Shinwha Sect had to suffer at their hands for a full six years. Six years.
You can’t just brush it off for a few hours, right?
So I hoped Baek-san would hold out as long as possible.
Since he’s already dead, you don’t have to worry about him dying again.
No matter how damaged the spirit body was, it could be restored to its original state using the Black Dragon’s Aura, so there was no problem using any torture method.
“So please hold on as long as you can. No more, no less. Just as much as the believers suffered.”
「!!!」
Baeksan became stiff.
I was smiling like a demon in his eyes.
* * *
Ilno took a quick glance at the carriage, which had been noisy for a while, but had now become quiet.
‘Are you done with everything you were looking at?’
If you were a believer of the Angmasinhwajong sect, it was common sense that Unhwi dealt with ghosts.
However, there was a huge difference between what I had heard through rumors and what I actually witnessed.
This was because, while watching Un-Hwi chattering away in the empty space, there were more than a few times when he felt a chill down his spine without realizing it.
Especially after having a serious discussion about something, the eyes that were occasionally visible were so sharp that they hardly seemed to belong to a living person.
It was a look that only someone who could truly move between the world of the living and the dead could have.
‘So he could have come back from hell himself to save us.’
To Ilno, Unhwi was no longer just a simple disciple and a lord to be served.
It was faith.
Resurrection.
What greater mystery can there be in this world?
Especially the sight they saw when they defeated the demon that was trying to push them to the bottom of hell… When he turned his back to the moonlit night and showed them a smiling gaze beyond his mask… I really thought that the Lord had descended from heaven himself.
Punishment for the enemy, salvation for the believers.
The image of Yun-Hwi engraved on Il-No’s heart at that time remained as an unforgettable impression for the rest of his life.
However, if I have any worries, it is that I am worried that the leader of the sect will do something big in the future and that I might be the one who gets in trouble.
So I made up my mind to become stronger and stronger quickly so that I could serve by your side.
‘The word ‘lord’ still feels awkward.’
Ilno scratched his cheek with his index finger.
I wonder what kind of interrogation is taking place inside there?
It would be great if this country could be of even a little help.
That was when I was thinking like that.
“Wouldn’t it be better not to look into it?”
Foodduck!
Suddenly, a bird flew quietly next to Ilno and landed on the seat next to him.
The bird that Unhwi carried around.
“huh?”
Ilno looked around.
I heard a human voice, but I couldn’t help but wonder since there were only birds, not people.
But the surrounding area is just a mountain path filled with the sounds of insects.
There was nothing.
Of course, I couldn’t detect any signs of human presence.
“… Did I hear things?”
Ilno felt tired as the tension eased and he started to feel better, so he touched the snowball.
“What do you mean you heard nothing? I heard it perfectly.”
“… Huh?”
“Until just a moment ago, you were acting all serious and all by yourself. Now, you’ve completely lost your cool?”
“???”
It wasn’t in vain!
Ilno jumped up from his seat.
If the North Sea Clan had sent an assassin, it had to be stopped.
“It’s here.”
But no matter how hard I tried to sense it, I still couldn’t sense anything.
Cold sweat ran down my back.
Gulp!
“Didn’t I say it was here?”
Sweat formed on his clenched fists.
I think the enemy is trying to hide and fool me into making a mistake in judgment.
Phaaaak!
Then suddenly a bird jumped up and hit the back of Ilno’s head hard with its wing.
“What, what is this all of a sudden-”
“How many times do I have to tell you to come here before you understand! With that kind of attitude, how can you possibly be a servant of the cult leader from now on? Tsk tsk.”
“!?”
Ilno’s mind suddenly snapped.
“Why are you standing there like that? If you saw your senior, wouldn’t you say hello first?”
“Bird, bird speaks!”
There has never been an article like this before.
How can a bird speak human language!
He was terrified because it was something that made no sense, but then Onma suddenly jumped up again and hit Ilno on the back of the head.
“Wake up, you! If you continue to serve the young cult leader, things like this will happen more and more often. What are you going to do if you startle him already?”
Onma raised his chin as high as he could.
I felt like I had to do a special self-introduction for this dull junior.
Shouldn’t the two people who will serve the leader of the Guryong branch the most in the future at least exchange names and become close friends?
Absolutely not, I didn’t sneak out to escape the brutal punishment that was taking place inside the carriage.
“… Then, your lord-”
“That’s right. I am the first person to be taken in by the cult leader after his resurrection.”
“Do you have a pet?!”
A deep furrow appeared between Onma’s eyebrows.
Phaaaak!
Another bump appeared on Ilno’s head.
