#Episode 9
[The Seven Bonds of the Holy Fire of the White Lotus Sect.]
[Chapter 3 Blood King’s Fist]
A strange-looking fist stretches out, with red mist flowing out of a white-tinted fist. My sister’s eyes open wide.
Then, all of a sudden, it stopped right in front of my sister’s face.
Paaang-!!
The air that had been pushed out made a loud noise and my sister’s head was blown backwards.
He spread out his hand and tapped his sister’s forehead with his right index finger.
Taak-!
With that clear sound, my older sister collapses on the spot like a doll with its strings untied.
He hugged his older sister so that she wouldn’t hit her head on the ground.
My sister who fainted was lighter than I thought.
It’s always been like that.
My sister was so easygoing to me. She was always dieting, saying that women need to take care of themselves, so I always found something good and fed it to her.
He added this: Please gain some weight.
If you’re 170cm tall and weigh 50kg, you’re too skinny.
My older sister said this to me.
What do you know about women?
I had nothing to say so I just kept my mouth shut, but now I think I can.
Sister, you are so skinny.
A smile appears on the lips.
I came back to Earth.
I finally returned to Earth where my older sister is.
I looked down at my sister’s face, who had fainted, and laughed again.
#Chapter 3
How long has it been since I last held my sister in a princess-like embrace?
Now, I can’t even remember.
I stared blankly at my older sister, who was fast asleep, or more accurately, passed out.
I think it’s true that Nana and Noona have had rough lives. So I was a little proud of them.
My sister doesn’t know how blessed I am to be alive and well, not as twisted as I am, and how relieved I am right now.
That was when.
Percussion.
I hear someone kicking the seat.
He took a step to the side while still in that position and then turned his head to the side.
Phew-!
The blade passed right in front of my nose. The blade was very long. About 150cm. Judging from its shape, it wasn’t a claymore or anything like that, but just a long sword.
He just turned his head away.
There was a man.
A man with neat hair and round glasses.
He looked very smart and very fit. He was dressed in a suit, and honestly, he was the first person I had ever seen in my life.
He told me.
“Our Master, please put it down.”
“who are you?”
“… … I am the secretary of the Salvation Guild. That will be enough.”
Well, how should I explain this?
It seems like that guy sees me as an enemy right now.
To be clear, it’s a misunderstanding. Why am I the enemy?
“It’s just that family members who haven’t seen each other in a long time are bickering. Can’t we just wrap it up like this?”
“Do you think that makes sense?”
“Why doesn’t that make sense?”
“… … Isn’t there any evidence that you are the Master’s younger brother?”
“There’s no evidence to suggest otherwise.”
“that…….”
The chief secretary seemed embarrassed. He let out a small sigh.
“Let’s think about it. My older sister is the strongest in South Korea.”
“… … .”
“But my older sister is now unconscious. Who could have done this?”
The chief secretary’s expression hardened. He finished speaking.
“I think the bystanders were bitten by that guy. You saw it. How did the kid who was acting like me end up like that before I came? And what kind of power he had.”
“… … .”
“Not only you, but most of the people were fooled by that guy. Who did you find out about that? You’ve probably met that guy, the 200th Apostle, many times, but this is my first time meeting him. Chief Secretary, I could fully feel how much you care for my sister.”
I gently touched the blade of his sword, which was still outstretched with my finger.
The blade was shaking. The fact that it was shaking meant that he was afraid of this incomprehensible phenomenon, and yet the fact that he was still in this place meant that he was holding on with mental strength.
“But that’s one thing, and this is this. I came here to see my sister. One interruption is enough. The second time, I won’t let it go. I’m telling you in advance, because she’s my sister, I only knocked her out. If it was anyone else, I would have just killed her.”
The hardened expression of the chief secretary hardened once more. Everything he said was true, so he had nothing to say.
“Since this situation was caused by a misunderstanding, I think we should just work together to resolve it. What do you think?”
“… … .”
“I can’t force you because I think my older sister trusts you, but think about it this way. If I had bad intentions, would I be acting so gentlemanly right now?”

The chief secretary seemed to be thinking deeply about something.
And that thought didn’t last long.
Let’s just watch for now.
It is certain that this conclusion has been reached.
He quietly lowered his sword.
He asked me.
“What are your plans for the future?”
“I’m planning to go to my sister’s house. Do you know where it is?”
“I know.”
“What’s your password?”
“I don’t know about that.”
“Then I guess I’ll have to break it and go in.”
“… … .”
“What are you doing? I’m on my way.”
The chief secretary obediently guided the way.
He had an expression on his face that seemed like he was plotting something, but I didn’t really pay attention to it.
If it’s different, I can just leave.
As I said before, one interruption is enough. Going around in circles doesn’t suit my personality.
So I moved with my older sister.
* * *
My sister’s house was big. It was too big for her to live in alone. It was a house, not an apartment.
It was a two-story house with a yard that seemed to be about 2,000 pyeong in size.
It seemed like everything was decorated like a park, which was a bit strange.
Above all else.
The house was in Pangyo, not Seoul.
It felt a bit strange, but I let it be.
Because there might be gold buried in Pangyo.
“Your tastes have changed a bit since we last saw each other.”
“… … .”
“You said your dream was to live in Seoul, but has your dream changed?”
Then he turned his head briefly. It was the secretary of the Salvation Guild.
He didn’t even respond to what I said.
“What kind of invisible person are you?”
“no.”
“Is that Chief Secretary worthy of the job?”
“Yes, it is worth doing.”
He shrugged.
I walked slowly. There was a front door in front of me. My sister showed no sign of waking up yet, and I don’t know the house password. It didn’t seem like anyone lived inside. In the case of the yard, I climbed over the wall, but this was a little different. There was really nothing I could do about this. As I said before, I had no choice but to break it down.
I reached out and touched the door. I applied a little force.
Kwaaang.
The door breaks down.
I took off my shoes and went inside. The interior was neat. There was a sofa and a huge TV in the spacious living room. That was when I looked around.
I saw an unbalanced door that looked familiar, but didn’t seem to fit in this large house.
It was a place that was almost directly visible from the front door, but the door to that room was particularly shabby.
And I know that shabby door. I can’t not know it.
I moved to the room, holding my sister in my arms, as if possessed by something. I reached out, grabbed the doorknob, and turned it.
Squeak.
The door opens. The sight that unfolds beyond leaves me speechless.
It’s like time has stopped. No, it’s like time has been turned back.
Before I went to another world, I stayed in a two-room apartment with my older sister.
It was a semi-basement, but it was still livable. My sister liked TV and things like that more than I did, so I put everything in her room, and I only had a bed and a desk in my room. The room I see now is exactly the same as the room I had back then.
I ended up laughing on the spot.
Seriously, it’s been a long time since I laughed so heartily.
I didn’t really have a deep conversation with my sister, but honestly, I thought she had completely forgotten about me because she was still hanging out with that two hundredth apostle or whatever.
But I think my older sister felt something too.
Why is this room like this? This is the proof.
Perfect proof that my older sister wasn’t sure if the two hundredth apostle who was pretending to be me was ‘Jin Shihou’.
I feel it.
How much my sister must have missed my empty spot.
Although he looked like Jin Shi-hoo, his appearance felt strange, so how much must his older sister have suffered alone?
“… … It was good that you came.”
No other words came out.
I laid my sister down on the bed. Then, suddenly, she turned her head.
The chief secretary was already in the living room.
“Chief Secretary.”
“yes.”
“I know it’s a bit odd to say this, but please put your shoes back on and stand in the hallway.”
“… … .”
“This is not a request.”
The chief secretary put on his shoes and waited in the hallway without saying a word.
I moved the chair in ‘my room’ next to the bed. Then I plopped down on it.
“Come to think of it, I didn’t even get to give my full name. What is your name?”
“… … This is Yoon Young-soo.”
“That’s a good name.”
I know that among the rare surnames, there is the surname Kuk. If it was Kuk, it would have been Kuk, Youngsoo, I was about to make a groundless joke like that.
I don’t think this is right.
“Can I ask you something?”
“yes.”
“What kind of person is my older sister?”
“… … If you’re my brother, don’t you know better?”
I know. I know, but it’s been too long. It’s been 10 years for my sister, but it’s been even longer for me.
Of course, people don’t change easily. That’s for sure.
“There probably isn’t much difference between the sister I knew in the past and the sister I know now. But.”
“but?”
“People wear masks that fit their environment. I want to know what kind of person my sister is and what kind of person she looks like. Don’t you know?”
“… … .”
“It’s okay if you don’t know.”
Yoon Young-soo reacted to those words.
“You are carrying too much on your narrow shoulders.”
I turned my head.
Yoon Young-soo was speaking. With a single, unwavering gaze.
“The Master’s dream is to make the current world a world filled with smiling children. I have seen that dream and am with you, and Jinsong has never betrayed me or anyone in the Salvation Guild for even a single moment.”
A world where children smile.
That’s really difficult.
“Even though everyone in the world held him up and praised him as a hero, the Master never once became arrogant. He was always humble, yet dependable. It is true that he was someone who everyone could rely on, but he always lived alone, with no one to rely on… … .”
Yoon Young-soo paused for a moment and continued speaking with sincerity.
“A master who doesn’t show it even though he looks tired, doesn’t show it even though he’s lonely, and carries everything on his own without showing it at all is someone who deserves respect. I think that’s the best answer I can give.”
I stared blankly at Yoon Young-soo. He was clearly speaking his mind right now. It was funny.
“But my older sister is Chilgang?”
“Yes, that’s right.”
“But, I heard that among the Seven Strong Men, there is someone stronger than my older sister. Is that true?”
“Yes, it’s true.”
“Who is that?”
Yoon Young-soo, who seemed to be thinking for a moment, continued speaking in a dry voice.
“I’m Jamie Wilson, the Unique Awakener. His ability is called ‘Declare Territory’, and when he unleashes it, a radius of at least 5 meters becomes his territory.”
