Episode 69
Benefit
The ghostly sound filled the main hall.
A turbulent wave of air swirled about haphazardly.
But for the first time, Dang Gyu-jin’s ghost face, which always smiled strangely, did not smile.
I was crying.
“Jin-ah, you-”
Namgung Sanyoung’s eyes, blocked by the Cheonggang Sword, wavered.
Even if he was possessed by demonic powers, could he not have brought himself to harm his own daughter?
It seemed that maternal love was holding onto the last bit of her reason.
“Mother, please let this end here.”
“I, I-”
Namgung Sanyoung’s eyes shook for a moment.
Then suddenly it hardened.
The area around my eyes suddenly turned pitch black, turning completely black.
The wavering life force of the possessed spirit has transformed into magic.
Kwaaaaah!
“Daughter, this is the day I go to sleep.”
It was magic.
“This is the Reverse Blood Explosion Demonic Skill! How can a descendant of Namgung do something that has been forbidden by the new religion for a long time-“
‘That must be the proof that Namgung joined hands with Shingyo. Namgung Sanyoung must have learned it without even knowing it.’
Could it be that Namgung Se-ga taught her Donggwi Eojin’s method to use in times of crisis?
The reverse blood explosion magic attack artificially explodes the potential by turning the internal energy in the opposite direction.
In that case, your internal energy would increase several times in a short period of time, allowing you to see a tremendous increase in strength, but it was a trick that would end in death as an aftereffect.
In addition, the brain is damaged and the person loses their reason in the final stages.
All that remains is the final objective.
Chae-Ang!
Dang Gyu-jin took the flag while pushing Namgung San-young back.
The tear stains evaporated in the heat.
All that remained in that place were the determined eyes.
Now he realized that Namgung Sanyoung was no longer the Namgung Sanyoung he knew.
“The Cheongseongpa Angel, the Heavenly and Earthly Diary, the Myunnikgeomju Suhye Dang Gyu-jin. From now on, we will perform the Tangma Myeolsa ritual.”
Pfft!
With very little ceremony, Dang Gyu-jin kicked the floor hard.
Benefit.
It seemed like it was a nickname given to her.
Revealing one’s name can be seen as a declaration that one will no longer care about worldly relationships and will be faithful to one’s duties.
Paaaa-
Namgung Sanyoung’s magic energy could not reach Dang Gyujin.
In the first place, the teachings of the Heaven and Earth Diary were able to suppress even the evil energy of the Blue Mask Root, so it was difficult for the clumsy evil energy of the Bloodthirsty Demon to even approach it.
The Qingjiang Sword cut diagonally through the waterfall of magic and dug deep into it.
And that’s where we arrived.
There was Namgung Sanyoung’s neck.
Squeak!
Phew-
Namgung Sanyoung’s head flew into the air.
At the last moment, her face was smiling warmly.
Only then did I realize.
Namgung Sanyoung made this choice for the sake of his children.
“If I take all the sins upon myself and die for my daughter, my children will no longer be harmed.”
“Still, it seems she didn’t want to be remembered as a bad mother to her children.”
“What a twisted maternal instinct. If you have that kind of maternal instinct, you should know that others have it too, tsk!”
Namgung Sanyoung’s headless body fell to the floor.
Dang Gyu-jin couldn’t bear to look at that and turned his head away.
Instead, Dang Yu-chang collected Namgung San-yeong’s head.
Gwijegal wrapped it in a bundle that was handed over without saying a word.
“Mother… I will take care of you as Namgung.”
“Please do so.”
Gui Zhuge nodded indifferently.
However, perhaps because he was once a hostess, his gaze was filled with bitterness as he watched Namgung Sanyoung’s end.
Dang Yuchang bowed his head respectfully to Gui Zhuge, bowed once more in the direction of the Nanhyeop Hall, and then left the main temple.
There was no final greeting towards Dang Gyu-jin.
The incident a little while ago also ended the relationship between siblings.
The assassins sprinkled Hwagolsan on Namgung Sanyeong’s body and incinerated the body, quickly erasing the bloodstains that remained here and there.
The devil said.
“I will announce to the public that the Grand Lady is not feeling well and has gone on a long trip to her parents’ home with Prince Dang Youchang.”
“Thank you… for your support.”
Dang Gyu-jin bowed his head.

Still, it was a thank you note for protecting his mother’s honor until the end.
“Lieutenant, please talk to me.”
I nodded and left the main building with Gui Zhuge Gal and Dang Gon.
Dang Gyu-jin needed time to gather his thoughts.
* * *
“When did you send it? Why is it so late?”
As soon as I left the main building, I hit the danggon.
Then Danggon shifted the responsibility to Gui Zhuge.
“This guy wore a mask, took earrings, and wasted time saying he had to do this and that, and that’s how it ended up like this. I’m not guilty.”
“Hey! I came as fast as I could. Since it’s a matter of hitting the lady, I need to know the whole story before I can make a move!”
“That’s none of my business.”
“You want to get your pay cut, don’t you?”
“Oh, for Christ’s sake! Stop talking about salary cuts!!”
“Why me? I find this so much fun?”
“fu*k!”
I coughed loudly because I felt like if I left it like this, the argument between Dang-gon and Gui-je-gal would go on forever.
Fortunately, Gui Zhe Gal also seemed to know what I was thinking and changed the subject.
“Still, you’re amazing. Actually, I didn’t know you could deal with the lady so quickly.”
“There’s no point in wasting time. You never know when the Demonic Cult will come rushing in. It’s better to get rid of it as quickly as possible.”
“Hoo hoo!”
“…What’s with those eyes?”
The eagle stared at me with its bright eyes.
A look in his eyes as if he were looking at a delicious meal right before his eyes.
I found myself taking a step back without realizing it.
Churp!
Even Gui Zhuge said this while salivating again.
“Are you really not thinking of coming to Punghwajeong?”
“doesn’t exist.”
“Are you thinking of reconsidering it?”
“I told you there isn’t any.”
“You’re so resolute, it’s like a pumpkin. That makes me want it even more. Hehehe!”
Danggon was opening his eyes wide next to me.
As if he was going to shake my balls if I kept nagging him.
“Oh my! I can’t even flirt with that guy who keeps staring at me. Take this.”
The ghost threw something.
widely!
I took it in a daze.
It was a gourd.
“What is this?”
“Alcohol. I thought Princess Gyu-jin might need it. That’s why I brought the alcohol I’ve been saving.”
“… … .”
I looked back and forth between the gourd and the gwijegal.
“Of course I know that the three of you drank this afternoon. But your state of mind then and your state of mind now are bound to be different, right?”
Gwijegal continued speaking with a smile.
“Instead, just stay still next to the princess tonight. That alone will be a great comfort to him.”
There was a hint of sadness mixed in Guijegal’s voice, which was still full of laughter.
I glanced at Danggon.
Dang-gon also had his lips tightly shut, as if he was suppressing something.
Did Dang Gyu-jin’s appearance remind you of someone?
All you have to do is just stay by my side.
Maybe they were reminded of their dead former comrades.
“When we were young, we often had similar cases. No, this may be a fate for Mine. As you learn magic, you will encounter many people who have fallen into the devil’s spirit. After you eliminate those people… the surroundings will be filled with bitterness.”
Onma’s bitter voice was heard from somewhere.
The scenery he was talking about was something I was very familiar with.
Since magic was faster to achieve than regular magic, it was also more dangerous.
So, the new religion had an organization that specialized in dealing only with those who had fallen into the possession of money.
The believers also lived with the alarm that one day they might end up in the same situation as them.
In particular, the elders’ house where the horses stayed always had a peculiar, rough atmosphere that was difficult to express in words.
“There is nothing sadder than losing someone-“
“But I think it’s a great comfort to know that I have someone right next to me.”
I hung the bottle on my waist.
“Okay. Let’s do that.”
“That’s enough.”
The ghost turned his body the other way.
“Then I’ll get up first. I have to move before they find out what’s going on with the lady. Okay. See you next time.”
Gui Zhuge left the main temple with the two messengers, winking one eye.
In a dark battle, information superiority was of utmost importance.
The idea is to move quickly so as not to miss it.
What kind of expression will the Namgung guys make when Namgung Sanyoung’s head arrives as a gift?
I just stared in the direction where the magpie had left.
Tonight’s night at Punghwajeong seemed very long.
* * *
―Eastern Imperial Palace (東帝南宮).
It was a nickname referring to the Namgung family that reigned like an emperor in the eastern part of the Central Plains.
Kyo Il-ji was proud of the fact that he was a member of the Namgung family.
Although he had to live his entire life in the shadows, hiding his real name, Namgung Ilji, he was proud of the fact that he was contributing to the fame of his brother Namgung.
One day, when Namgung unifies the Central Plains, the four letters of her original name will also be engraved in the center of the Central Plains.
In that sense, Sacheondangga was a place that absolutely had to be eliminated in advance.
How dare you discuss the position of the leader of the six great families with Namgung as your ally?
It was absolutely impossible to be compared to those sinister people who could not even hold a sword properly and only used poison and secret weapons.
However, the Sacheon region has long been a huge barrier that has protected the Central Plains from the invasions of the Cheonmasingyo and the new martial arts world.
Accordingly, the Sacheon martial arts world was famous for producing many outstanding masters compared to martial arts worlds in other regions.
Sacheondangga was also famous for having many experts despite its small number of members.
In particular, their uniquely insular nature boasted a level of difficulty that was not easy for Namgung to grasp right away.
That is why Namgung has been preparing for an undercover operation to bring down Sacheondangga for a very long time.
We are fully prepared to bring in the devil’s cult and shake up the Nine Dragons branch.
Now, if they could only succeed in assassinating Amzon, everything could end in their victory.
Namgung, who had been confined to the east, was finally able to advance to the west.
The plan to control the waters of the Central Plains and become the best in the world could begin in earnest.
‘Stupid Muyeong might have been easily fooled, but I can’t be like that.’
From the beginning, Muyeong and Kyoilji belonged to different departments.
While Muyeong was simply a spy assigned by the main family to keep an eye on Namgung Sanyeong, Gyo Ilji was a member of the spy organization called Amroebu and had been active as a spy within the Guryong branch for a long time.
In particular, she was recognized by her family to the point that she had direct contact with the Secret Service, and was even mentioned as a candidate for the next Vice Minister.
‘I have to get rid of the dark zone quickly so that this miserable life as a maid can end. My shoulders are so sore.’
As Kyo-il-ji returned to his lodgings and was relieving his stiff shoulders, he suddenly heard a knock on the window and hurriedly turned his gaze.
Knock knock!
‘Changcheon-eung!’
It was a telegram sent only when there was a close matter at the Secretariat.
As a token of appreciation for his hard work, Kyo-il-ji threw a dead mouse to Jeon Seo-eung, then took out the letter and looked at its contents.
After organizing what was written in the secret language, there were exactly eight characters.
-Visit the dark zone during the event.
‘at las……!’
It was just then.
“Oh, so that’s how you communicate with Namgung?”
“!!”
Kyo-il-ji hurriedly tried to turn around when he heard a voice from behind, but he soon lost consciousness due to the shock that followed.
Phew!
