Part 2 Episode 132
Fighting spirit, not fighting spirit
A cold dawn that came after a dark evening with dusk and a deep night.
The wall of the second floor of the Hyangni House, which stood proud of its old-fashioned charm, burst with a loud noise.
Quack!
“Ouch!”
A deathly scream tore through the pitch-black darkness. Pieces of dead meat bounced between the flying tree fragments and fell to the ground.
When the dust cleared to some extent, two people jumped lightly from the hole in the guesthouse and landed without a sound.
Heukseo grumbled, distorting his face, which was originally ferocious and even in reverse, hideously distorted.
“Are you blinded by wealth and clumsily trying to sneak in and spray poison at random? “Have you seen these rotten people?”
Zhao sighed.
“Elder. It’s too much, it’s too much. Why did you make such a fuss?”
“Did you forget what Danju asked you to say? “I told you that if there is a thief, you should show an example and warn others so they don’t act recklessly.”
“I remember it well, but I still said it was too harsh.”
“That’s ridiculous. “I finished it just by following the appropriate line.”
Heukseo snorted and took a step forward. He approached one of the corpses lying on the floor and smashed his head with an iron bar.
The middle-aged man, whose sunken chest was strangely writhing and recovering, finally died completely.
“Damn it. “There must be quite a bit of bother.”
Heukseo muttered as he wiped the blood and brain matter from the iron ingot onto the middle-aged man’s clothes.
“No matter how good gold is, you’re trying to start a business at Hyangri Gaekjan. Skills are not that big of a deal, but things matter a lot. wait. Is this coming again? “Wouldn’t it be better if I just scooped it up and hung it under the signboard?”
If there was another thief, the old bones would have to be busy like today.
This kind of work would be best done by a one-armed person, but isn’t that butcher tasked with the easy task of pointing out Seomrang’s blood transfusion, putting him to sleep, and protecting him?
When my thoughts reached that point, I became angry.
“Not like this. “I can’t go through this trouble every night.”
There had to be a clear warning to the moths that were about to jump into the forest fire.
“Crow, I will guide you, so take care of this guy first. First, divide the crown of your head crosswise… … You broke it. Then from the neck… … hmm?”
Zhao was standing silently, looking up at the dawn sky.
The sight looked so lonely that sympathy welled up in Heukseo’s heart.
‘okay. It must be confusing every day. So should I say it’s even more amazing?’
Even though Zhao faced a series of unbelievable events, he never expressed any doubts.
It wasn’t because I wasn’t curious.
I could clearly see his eyes shaking all the time.
‘When the time comes, the leader will let you know, but won’t it be ruined before then?’
Is it because I have harbored an ill will for a while?
I wanted to give you some breathing room.
“If you have any questions, ask. “I’ll tell you what I can.”
“… … .”
Zhao, who was looking up at the sky, slowly lowered his head.
And then I looked at the black book.
Zhao’s eyes were shining brightly like starlight.
“Thank you, old man. First, let me ask you about something light. What kind of place is Hyangrigakjan? Even if I rack my brain and think about it, I don’t know why demons can’t behave carelessly. Who is Min Hyeon-yu’s father? I heard that she is in close contact with a high-ranking member of the General Staff, and I am going crazy wondering what kind of position she has. And Goirukdanga Sogaju. Why does he… … .”
Heukseo’s eyes sank gloomily.
He was the one who really seemed crazy.
* * *
Jeong Gwang woke up from a good night’s sleep and opened the door.
A blizzard was blowing like crazy through the big hole in the wall.
‘This is it.’
Jeong Gwang clicked his tongue with a displeased expression.
It wasn’t because Heukseo used too much effort or because it was cold.
He slept while ignoring the sound of the wall exploding, and a snowstorm of this magnitude was not a big problem for him, who had reached a state where he could not sleep in cold weather.
‘The non-stage floor will become slippery. It would be disadvantageous for Seomrang.’
No. It was at a disadvantage anyway.
After briefly admiring the snow-covered scenery outside, I went down to the first floor.
“hello. “Good morning.”
The group that had gathered first greeted each other enthusiastically.
Zheng Guang sat on the chair and looked at Zhao.
“Thank you for your hard work all night. “Your complexion is better than I thought.”
It wasn’t just good, but Zhao’s face was full of life.
The voice was like that too.
“haha. Do you see it that way? “In fact, my physical and mental condition has improved a lot.”
“Good for you.”
Jeong Gwang nodded and shifted his gaze to Heukseo.
-Why are your eye shadows so dark? Was it that hard to get rid of some trash?
Heukseo was so unfair that he tried to refute it, but forced himself to suppress it.
Isn’t this a disaster that happened because everyone spoke incorrectly?
-I’m sorry, cult leader.
-Yes, reflect on yourself.
Jeong Gwang was about to order breakfast when Min Hyeon Yu came over and placed a warm wet towel on the table.

“Dad, did you sleep well?”
“huh. you?”
Min Hyeon-yu bowed politely to Jeong-gwang, who was wiping his hands with a wet towel.
“Thanks to you, I slept well. “Not only did they repair the first floor, but they also made this floor well-ventilated.”
Jeong Gwang comforted him.
“So you put it up yesterday.”
“I can only admire the great man’s foresight.”
“With something like that. “Did you send someone to Danga Sogaju?”
“We should have arrived at the manor by now. “Don’t worry, I will send you a ghostwritten letter and receive a reply.”
“You pay for the ghostwriting yourself.”
“Thank you for looking.”
“When you say ‘ghostwriting,’ you mean it with strength. “I should have just met Sogaju yesterday and talked about it.”
“You said you didn’t want to wait for the other kids to finish competing, right? “It’s a good thing that public matters like this should be carried out following procedures anyway.”
“What are the breakfast procedures today?”
“Since you are on an empty stomach, we are preparing something that ranges from soft to tasty, and as it is cold, you can finish it off with a hot dish.”
“good. Let’s go like that.”
“Please wait a moment.”
I really just had to wait a moment.
Jeong Gwang and his group put down their chopsticks while enjoying the dishes placed one after another on the table.
And I rinse my mouth with warm tea… … .
A man opened the guest room door and came in, handing out a letter to Min Hyeon-yu.
“Good job.”
“no. “Then I’ll just leave.”
The man disappeared with quick steps, and Min Hyeon-yu handed the letter to Jeong Gwang.
“Here we are, great man.”
“I guess the unit price threshold isn’t that high. “It came sooner than I thought.”
“We were just being flexible.”
“I heard you did well to become friends with Hyeonyu. Let’s do well in the future.”
Min Hyeon-yu sighed softly and spoke again.
“Here we are, great man.”
The contents of the letter were simple.
“In the life-and-death struggle for annihilation, I will move the order of seomrang to the very end, so let’s come when it is time to move from the new time to the time of death and discuss after finishing the life-and-death struggle?”
As Jeong Gwang read the letter, Min Hyeon-yu nodded.
“It’s a great convenience since they might be our first customers in the battlefield business.”
“It’s time for dinner then.”
“I’ve always known that transactions go smoothly only when we eat.”
“I’m going to eat it all up.”
Jeong Gwang chuckled and put the letter in his arms.
There is no favor without reason.
Could this be happening just because of business? It was clear that there was something else I wanted.
“Hyeonyu.”
“Yes, great man.”
“What do you think Sogaju wants?”
“There is one thing that comes to mind, but I don’t think it will come to fruition.”
“I think so too. great job. “Please block the hole on this floor first.”
“I was going to do that. Rest in peace.”
When Hyunyu went to work, Seomrang frowned, holding his nose.
“Dirty. As Daein said, the matchup was not decided by a random draw, but it was a wild game.”
“Do you believe it now?”
Seomrang shrank his neck.
“It’s important to believe, even if it’s late. Also, what are you trying to explain to other contestants and families?”
“Why do I need to explain? “You defeated the strongest guy yesterday, so you’ll understand that much.”
Strong self-respect.
Who would argue about giving small benefits to the powerful?
Of course, there would be minor disadvantages as a result, but it didn’t matter since it was something that Seomrang would experience.
“Please keep an eye on the black swans and blood swans. Seomrang and you are following.”
“why?”
“We have to prepare to win today.”
“As expected, you are a great person. “I thought you would prepare a secret plan.”
Seomrang was very excited and headed to Huwon with Jeong Gwang.
As soon as I left, a bitter snowstorm hit and scratched my entire body.
‘Ugh. cold. ‘What’s with the snow all of a sudden?’
Unlike Seomrang, who was shivering, Jeong Gwang lightly shook off his sleeves with a calm expression.
Whoa-
A strong wind blew away the snow that had accumulated on the ground.
“Unfold the silent report.”
“yes!”
Seomrang took off his snow clothes, stood on the bare ground, and took a deep breath.
And at some point, his eyes lit up and he stepped forward with his left foot at an angle. He puts his right foot behind it, turns his upper body silently, and moves his left foot again… … .
Quadang!
“Ugh!”
Seomrang, who had fallen to the ground, quickly stood up, turning his red-hot face to the side.
“Great, great! It’s not my fault! There was no snow, but the floor was frozen so I slipped a bit… … .”
“It doesn’t work either.”
“… … yes?”
“but. “My lower body strength is poor, so there’s no way I can do this.”
“Oh, no!”
“Stand still.”
“Ugh… … .”
Time passed.
As the snow continued to fall, not only the island, but also the once clean floors turned white again.
‘crazy. ‘Why is it so cold?’
Seomrang, whose body temperature dropped sharply due to the harsh wind, bit his dry lips and forced himself to endure.
You’ve already looked embarrassed, so you can’t say anything weak, right?
How long has it been like that?
Jeong Gwang, who was leaning against the wall under the eaves, averting his eyes, and admiring Hyeon Oh’s posthumous work for the first time in a long time, opened his mouth.
“Mo Yingbo again.”
Seomrang barely moved his frozen lips.
“yes!”
Do you think I’ll get cold like this?!
This body that will one day look down upon the world?
Show me your skills clearly!
I carefully took a step with my left foot.
The little feet fell into a pile of soft snow that had just accumulated quite a bit.
Pout-duk-
A blush appeared on Seomrang’s face.
‘The snow field is a hundred times better than the frozen ground!’
Yes, this should be enough.
My confidence soared.
That’s how well the footwork was implemented.
Seomrang blew out his cold white breath and planted footprints on the white ground.
It was a little hard on my eyes, but it didn’t matter.
The sweat seeping from my whole body cooled down and I felt even colder, but I didn’t care.
The more I walked, the more I moved according to the steps, the more a hazy feeling of pleasure rose up and raced through my whole body.
‘It’s really awesome! ‘It’s so much better than when I was drunk!’
I entrusted my mind and body to that feeling and unfolded the silent prayer.
I laughed heartily as I left footprints all over the sponsorship.
‘more! If I just add a little more, I think I’ll see something… … .’
And then suddenly he lost his strength and fell forward.
Just before he hit his face on the ground, Jeong Gwang suddenly approached him and grabbed Seomrang by the back of his neck and lifted him up.
Seomrang had fainted from exhaustion.
Jeong Gwang clicked his tongue.
“Tsk. I thought I was going to take a step forward thanks to my luck. “He’s a guy who requires a lot of work.”
I grabbed one of Seomrang’s ankles and spun him around to shake off the snow.
I lifted him up, carried him back to the guest room, and laid him down on the bed.
After interrogating him and pushing his inner force into him, Seomrang opened his eyes.
“… … Adult. “Did I faint?”
“huh. “Even while he was unconscious, he was laughing heartily.”
“… … “It’s really embarrassing.”
“What do you think?” “If it’s good, it’s good.”
Seomrang grinned as he recalled the feeling he felt earlier.
“Iknow, right. I really liked it. “I will practice harder.”
“First, let’s start by surviving today. “Get up and sit down.”
“yes!”
Seomrang sat up straight away.
Jeong Gwang also sat on the bed and explained today’s tactics.
“Before we begin our life-or-death struggle, we will clear away the snow that has accumulated on the off-stage. “If that’s the case, it can’t be helped that the floor is frozen.”
“ha. “It must be slippery.”
“So wait.”
“yes?”
“When you get on the off stage, wait until the snow piles up. “Like I tried earlier, a snow field is better than a frozen ground.”
“Uhm. It certainly is. I defeated Dan Seong-oh, the strongest player, yesterday, so I won’t attack my opponent carelessly, no matter who he is. “I will overwhelm you with momentum and buy time.”
Jeong Gwang looked at Seomrang with a bewildered expression.
“What if we won with the help of Heavenly Rain? Are all people’s eyes just knotholes? “Don’t you know your true skills?”
“… … .”
“Spew poison or throw daggers to waste time. “The walking techniques have become quite usable, but since I can’t use my internal strength, I aim for just one moment to move.”
“… … yes. “I will do that.”
“It’s hard to get upset over something that doesn’t matter.”
Hearing Jeong Gwang’s next words, Seomrang lifted his face from his bowed position.
“It’s hard to find a fighter like you at your age. “As long as you hold on well, you will definitely win.”
“… … !”
Not ‘I will win’, but ‘I will win’!
Seomrang’s eyes glowed hotly.
“yes! Great man!”
“good. “Let’s go have lunch.”
“I will guide you!”
Seomrang, who was energetically walking down the stairs one step ahead of Jeong Gwang, realized something he had forgotten.
“But… … .”
“what?”
“What if it stops snowing?”
“ah.”
“… … ah?”
Jeong Gwang brought his hands together neatly.
“Shall we pray to the gods of heaven and earth for more rain?”
* * *
Fortunately, the snow continued to fall.
As soon as Seomrang went to the place where the life-or-death struggle was taking place, he checked the opponent and slumped his shoulders.
‘After all, he is evaluated as the strongest after Dan Seong-oh. ‘What’s going on?’
It was a small disadvantage given the benefits.
Wouldn’t this be the only way there would be no backlash from onlookers?
A middle-aged man conducting a life-or-death struggle shouted out the victory or defeat of the children who were fighting and then ordered the off-stage to be cleared.
There was no need for a lottery.
“Once everything is sorted out, we will immediately begin the life-or-death struggle of the two remaining contestants!”
Jeong Gwang grinned at Danyoung, the Danga Sogaju who was watching him, and approached the Jeonju.
“hello.”
Jeong Gwang came late and Jeonju, who had been playing ball all day, welcomed him as if his deceased ancestor had returned to life.
“Are you here, great man! “Everyone was trying to compete with Daein, so I thought I was just going to kill flies.”
“Well. “It’s all for Seomrang.”
Zhao brought the carriage and parked it next to the table.
Jeonju’s subordinates took out gold and silver treasures from the carriage and piled them on the table.
The atmosphere in the hall changed drastically.
Not only the people who were glaring at Jeonggwang and trying to kill themselves, but even those who had nothing to do with it were running towards Jeonju like crazy.
“I’m on the other side!”
“me too!”
“I stole all my money! “I will definitely win!”
Jeong Gwang turned his head and shouted to Seomrang.
“If you win this time, I’ll give you less than one day’s work!”
Seomrang had a fighting spirit, not a fighting spirit.
“thank you for this food!”
