Episode 7
household
“It’s quite heavy. I guess you were planning on going out for a drink after this?”
“When on earth did it happen… … ?”
Dang-gon had a look on his face that said he couldn’t believe it.
Well, that’s true.
Not only did he demonstrate so skillfully a technique that would take others at least three months to master, but he also displayed such outstanding skill that he was able to even take out a master’s sac.
Of course, even if I were a genius, it would be impossible for me to learn the secret book in such a short period of time.
In fact, this was a fraud with a fair amount of sleight of hand.
“Your Majesty! I did as you said, so please be lenient-“
‘Okay. Let me take a look.’
“Thank you! I have no other wish than reincarnation, so please do whatever you want!”
The dark spirit only approached Dang-gon. The one who brought the Jeon-nang was the ghost. He had secretly planted one of them in Jeon-nang in advance.
Although there are still limitations to performing physical events because the upper body is not fully developed, it was a piece of cake to this extent.
However, Dang-gon, who had no way of knowing this fact, looked confused.
“Have you already learned the secret of the secret-”
“I wasn’t even allowed to read the military library, so how did you learn it in advance?”
“… Then how did this happen-”
“Maybe it’s because I’m a greater genius than the Knight of the Wind.”
I returned the money I had taken from the wallet, minus exactly thirty nyang.
widely!
Dang-gon didn’t even think about receiving it. The pouch that had fallen to the floor was very loose.
“Musabou, is there anything else? This is too boring.”
Danggon’s face distorted.
On the other hand, I laughed.
Shhh!
It was a moonfish.
* * *
Two hours later.
“Nonsense… this is impossible… … .”
The danggon lay scattered on the floor, burnt white.
Why is that?
Just a little while ago, I lost every last bit of my assets. Hehehe.
Danggon was truly a tree that gave generously. Every time I scratched at its insides, it fell down in a heap.
‘Just one more round! Let’s play just one more round, Lee Gong Ja!!’
‘You don’t have money? Hey! Just bring me the money! Wait here for a moment! I’ll withdraw the money from the money vault right away!!’
‘Hoo hoo hoo! Look at that. Even if he is a great scholar, it would be difficult to do something like the Mad Wind Body Technique, even if it is something like the Marriage Cling!’
‘What? You want to play one more round? Hahahaha! Listen, Lee Gongja. The Gwangpung Shinbeop is the proud unit technique of our Gwangpung Unit. But how… Hey, tsk! Okay! Let’s do it!’
‘… Huh? This isn’t it? How can you do the Twelve Winds of Madness-‘
‘Oh, no!’
‘Please, please, not this money! Have mercy! Forgiveness! Jee-baaal!’
What I’m saying is that because I gave in on purpose every now and then and pushed him around appropriately, he ended up getting hit harder.
In the end, Danggon lost all of his capital.
I thought that perhaps most of the energy I had was thrown out.
Even the old wind force unit’s seasonal divisions, which the Kowloon branch is proud of, are all there.
But this was only natural.
Even though I had never learned martial arts in my past life, it’s not like I didn’t have enlightenment.
That would be the case, as there were many experts all around.
In particular, my master often showed me his swordsmanship training himself.
As a result, his insight became as high as it could be. He was able to see through the secrets of most martial arts right away.
In addition, I have been training steadily for the past two months with the Dokryongsimgyeol and the Bokhosipipbak, so I have a solid grasp on how to handle this body.
By adjusting just that slight difference, he could absorb martial arts like a cotton ball that absorbs water.
Of course, I only acquired it, but it was not deep enough to be used in real life right away.
But that will become easier after practicing a few times.
Okay, so the mood is starting to warm up.
Should I throw in one last piece of bait?
“It’s a shame to end the bet like this.”
“… I have nothing more to offer.”
Looking at the dark circles under his eyes, he looked like a zombie.
“But isn’t there still one left?”
“one……?”
“Mad Dance.”
“!!”
thud!
I smiled as I put the heavy bag, which was now too heavy to carry, on the floor.
“I’ll bet everything on this. What do you think?”
“… but the wind and waves.”
Danggon wiggled his hips but couldn’t easily continue speaking.

Probably so.
Because Gwangpungmu was the very identity of the old Gwangpungdae.
In the Sacheon martial arts world, Gwangpungdae was a legend.
A military force that broke the momentum of the Cheongseongpa and Amipa, who had been enemies for a long time, and stopped the advance of the Cheonmasingyo, which was trying to enter the Central Plains.
Thanks to them, the Sacheon Tang clan was able to expand beyond Sacheon Castle and establish itself as the most powerful force in the western part of Central Plains.
Gwangpungmu was the highest season that only Gwangpungdaewon could master.
Once activated, it causes a whirlwind to spread across the world and tear everything apart.
If you mix poison into it, the surrounding area will become a wasteland, and if you put a dark energy into it, it will become a scorched earth.
Of course, the security of the Sacheondangga was also very strict regarding the Gwangpungmu, so it was one of the few seasons that could not be found even in the Cheonmamugo.
I was thinking of getting my hands on this.
“I know. It is impossible to do business without Dangata’s permission.”
“however-“
“But isn’t there an exception? For those directly under the command of the Great Wind Lord.”
“!!”
“Even if you are treated as an abandoned child, you are still the eldest son of the branch lord? You are more than qualified.”
“… … .”
Danggon bit his lips tightly.
Because there wasn’t a single word that was wrong.
Then his eyes became deeply sunken.
The image of being treated like a fool disappeared, and the core members of the old Gwangpungdae, full of spirit, appeared.
Gooooo-
My skin feels hot.
I thought it was pretty good. I was a little surprised.
I always saw you looking listless and unmotivated.
I wondered if he had been hiding his true colors.
“The wind dance is no different from our lives. I cannot tolerate treating it as a mere bet, no matter how much of a scholar you are.”
Yeah, building up pride.
But there’s something he doesn’t know.
I’m quite the expert at opening my mouth.
“Do I really look like I’m handling the stakes?”
“Isn’t it?”
“No.”
“what-“
“It’s frustrating, really. Do all the bets I’ve made so far seem like simple bets?”
“?”
For the first time, a question appeared on Dang-gon’s face.
I pretended to feel suffocated and beat my chest to complain.
“I’m trying to convince you that I have this much talent.”
“!”
“If I had first said I wanted to learn Gwangpungmu? Would you have taught me? I think you would have just laughed at me.”
“!!”
“If I hadn’t provoked you like this, you wouldn’t have even had a chance. So forget about the bet from before and just look straight at me, Dang Yun-hui.”
I now put the final period to the gaze of the trembling Danggon.
“Do I not seem worthy of continuing the legacy of the Gwangpungdae?”
“!!!”
Now it has gone beyond the level of a tidal wave and has caused an extreme tidal wave.
“I always feel this way-“
“It’s clear that the mouth of the cult leader is dangling a devil. There were more than a few followers who got caught up in it and lost their lives. It’s truly the devil’s mouth-“
‘Do you want to go?’
“I’m sorry, I’m sorry!”
“Yes, I will correct it!”
No matter what the ghosts were saying, I stared at Dang-gon in silence.
Perhaps, right now, many thoughts are jumbled together inside you.
He was talking about things that brought back memories, and he even got to see the vessel of the head of the household from a person he had never treated before. It must have been very confusing.
The reason Danggon didn’t get involved in the succession dispute was not because he wasn’t interested.
That’s because I had no one to support me.
Judging from the fact that his loyalty to Danghosan was still intact, if he aimed for that point and satisfied him appropriately, he would have come over.
The most important thing when fishing for a hook is not to act impulsively. That won’t last long. Later on, you’ll start to feel rebellious.
But when both mind and body are completely possessed, they offer up not only the money in their pockets but even the house deed. That’s exactly what happened to Dang-gon.
Moreover, the reason I pulled Danggon towards me wasn’t simply to get the wind and dust.
Aside from the visit to the dark palace, how many times will Namgung Sanyoung find fault with me in the future?
Then I needed an umbrella too.
At least an umbrella that can protect me in the Kowloon area.
Danggon is just the beginning.
I was thinking of slowly reaching out to the entire old Gwangpungdae, starting with this person.
Namgung Sanyoung and Dang Yuchang would probably be laughing by now, thinking that the plan they came up with was very plausible.
You will find out soon enough.
That the trap they had set would soon catch them by the balls.
“… … .”
Danggon was silent for a moment and then sighed.
“… I’ve heard recently that the person with the engineering skills has changed, but this isn’t just a change, it’s a change in the person.”
Sometimes, a blank space can speak louder than a hundred words.
“Have you been hiding from the world’s eyes all this time?”
“Well, maybe so?”
“You have been hiding it for a while due to the watchful eyes of the Grand Lady, but since the Emperor is visiting soon, you will reveal your true colors – that is what you are thinking.”
After laying down the appropriate amount of foundation, Danggon was now beating the drum and janggu at the same time by himself.
“Okay. I’ll show you the Gwangpungmoo. Since I’ve already shown it to the first lady and the third prince, there won’t be a problem showing it to the second prince.”
Tsk tsk tsk-
The wind mixed with the momentum emanating from Danggon and began to create a whirlwind.
“However, what even the other two gentlemen couldn’t even think of trying was the Gwangpungmu. Don’t even think about rushing into it.”
Danggon now has the proper manners and is ready to take the helm.
Her eyes, full of politeness, were full of goodwill toward me.
“Then should we change the bet a bit?”
“The contents…?”
Danggon was flustered by the word bet again when the atmosphere was ripe like this.
“You said it would be hard to learn it all at once. In fact, I don’t think I could do Gwangpungmu either… If I learn it today, I’ll buy you a drink. If I fail, I’ll buy you a drink. What do you think?”
“Alcohol. It’s good!”
A smile soon appeared on his lips.
and.
Kwarrrrrrung!
A whirlwind of wind swept through the white fields.
* * *
‘Even if the person in question is a genius, this will be difficult.’
Danggon was so happy at this moment.
Even when I first got sent out from Jeongpunggak on the orders of the great lady, I was only thinking about killing time.
‘Want to bet?’
‘Shocked?’
The teaching that started with a light provocation was now becoming fun.
‘Do I seem unworthy of taking up the mantle of Gwangpungdae?’
In particular, those words struck Dang-gon very strongly.
‘It’s the work of the Gwangpungdae… When did you have time to think about such things after disbanding the Gwangpungdae?’
After the Great Lord established the Nine Dragons Branch, he seemed to have become a completely different person.
In the past, I was always burning with passion and ambition, and made the hearts of those around me beat faster.
Now he is just a quiet lion who silently does the work given to him.
Because he seemed to have no particular motivation, quite a few of his followers left the Great Lord over the past twenty years, and now only a few of his close associates remained.
However, in the figure of Dang Yun-hui, who was talking about the work of Gwangpungdae, I saw the shadow of the old lord for the first time.
‘I just hope that it’s not just about making things sound nice.’
If someone were to ask me whether I would lean toward Yun-Hwi in the succession dispute, where no one has raised a hand so far, I would say that I would never choose anyone until the end.
Because it was a promise made among the old members to never raise a hand against anyone until the Lord showed his will.
But if someone asked me if I would make good drinking buddies, I think I would be able to answer that with a smile.
I think that’s probably the case.
… but after a while.
“I lost again! I lost again! Damn it!”
Dang-gon chewed on his handkerchief and cursed his own delusion.
