Episode 472
“Before those words even got out, you didn’t even pick up the sword.”
“Even if I caught the black one, you were the one who started it.”
I had nothing to say. It was clearly the ambassador himself who started the fight. Those words still ring in my head. Eat some shit.
Where did such courage come from? The man in front of me is none other than the Sword Master.
“If we continue talking, why did the Emperor of the West come to the Eastern Continent?”
“… … There’s no way I could know that. He might be trying to grab land, or he might not.”
Hyuk Jin-gang chuckled. Then he suddenly said something completely unexpected.
“You. Do you believe in ‘myths’?”
“… … What?”
“Myth, or legend. You can use whatever word you want. Why, there are things like that. A snake becomes a dragon… … A two-headed snake speaks human language… … Things like that.”
“… … Isn’t that all bullshit?”
“Do you think so?”
The ambassador clicks his tongue. What the heck.
“What do you want to say?”
Hyukjin Kang didn’t answer right away. Then he felt around in the empty space. Red energy emanated from his body, and then the empty space cracked.
The ambassador was genuinely surprised. This was definitely a mountain.
It was a mountain, but in the empty space that had been cut off, there was another place. Hyukjin River turned its head.
“Do you know what this is?”
“I had no idea. But you have this kind of talent? The Sword Master uses sorcery. How interesting.”
Hyuk Jin-gang smiled and shook his head. This is not sorcery. This is.
“If we were to translate it into the language of the Eastern Continent, it would be sorcery, and if we were to translate it into the language of the Western Continent, it would be magic.”
“… … .”
“There was a man thousands of years ago.”
Hyukjin Kang took a step. He walked into the space and motioned to the commander. He told him to come in.
… … Anyway, there is nowhere to go. Why on earth is the free-spirited Geomjon the leader of an organization called Cheonwicheon? What on earth does Cheonwicheon do?
I wanted to know that.
So I followed in. The air changed in an instant.
Hyukjin Kang took a step, and Jeoryeong Daesa also took a step.
hmm.
“If we continue talking, thousands of years ago there was a man named Asura.”
“… … Asura? The Asura of the Heavenly Demon Sect?”
“You know a lot. That’s Asura.”
“But isn’t that just a fictional character?”
“How could that be? He was a real person and was once the greatest person of all time.”

“… … .”
“When that man was called the greatest of all time, another man appeared.”
“… …Who is that? Surely it’s not someone like Dharma or something like that.”
Hyukjin Kang bursts into laughter.
“Dharma, it’s been a long time since I’ve heard from you. Come to think of it, you’re from Shaolin. Like Yanjon.”
The Great Master Je-ryeong did not answer. The one who created Shaolin Temple was Dalma. Dalma. To honor him, all those who study at Shaolin have the name Daesa at the end of their names.
The name of the great master of the salt field, Hwacheon, is Hwacheon. The great master was a student at Shaolin Temple, and so was the great master of the salt field. The name of the great master of the salt field is Je-ryeong. Sometimes he is called Je-yeong, but this has nothing to do with the situation.
Hyuk Jin-gang asked the ambassador.
“Do you know Ragnarok?”
“Who is that?”
I was able to summarize it in one word.
“Absolute.”
“… … .”
“An absolute being who tore the world apart, killed living beings for fun, and brought the world to the brink of destruction for his own hobby.”
“Are you kidding me right now?”
There was a huge building in front of him. Hyukjin Kang stopped at the entrance of the building and turned around.
“Why would I tease you all the way here? I will first tell you the purpose of Cheonwicheon.”
“… … Is it related to the previous Ragnarok and Asura?”
“of course.”
The Je-ryeong-daesa was genuinely curious. What on earth were those two brats that made Geom-jon do this?
“The purpose of Cheonwicheon is one.”
The standing swordsman reached behind him and placed his hand against the door.
Kookung, the door opens.
Inside, there was no entrance or porch or anything like what you would find in a normal home. There was an enormous number of ‘monsters’.
Its entire body was covered in thorns like protrusions, and it had many eyes. It was just… … extremely hideous.
The monsters raise their heads and look at the sword master, as if receiving an order.
At that moment, the ambassador felt a presence.
One, two. No.
At least 10 people, with more to come.
Thirteen men kicking the air and landing around them, four men floating in the sky, and five eyes watching from afar. In other words, five people.
There are 22 people in total. There are 23 people including the sword in front of you.
As soon as he saw their faces, the ambassador was surprised.

Why are these people here?
15 years ago, in the battle with Cheonma, Changjon, who was the best in the world, took the two kings and all of the five emperors of the previous generation to fight Cheonma.
And died.
Advertisements
Most of them died, but not all of them. The ones who died at that time were the warriors of Changjon and Jeongcheonmaeng, and the three warriors who were sitting on the altar.
The rest all survived. After surviving, they went into hiding without saying a word about the ‘Jeongma War’.
Among them, there are two kings who lived in seclusion.
An old man with a very thin body who gives a strange feeling to those who see him. That old man is the King of Kwon, Cheon Sang-Hyeon.
“It’s been a while. I think I saw you briefly about 13 years ago, but you’ve grown quite a bit since I last saw you.”
He didn’t answer. Cheon Sang-hyeon, who approached Geomjon, wasn’t alone. There was another person next to him.
King Zhuge Seon.
The King of Hell, who was looking at the two, felt strange. Thinking back on it, it was still funny. Why are these guys really here?
“Weren’t you in hiding?”
“I did. But there’s no law that says you can’t be active just because you’re in seclusion, right?”
It felt like a pun. The ambassador’s brow furrowed.
It was 18 years ago that Je-ryeong-daesa acquired the name of Myeong-wang. In other words, Je-ryeong-daesa acted as Myeong-wang for 18 years. Je-ryeong-daesa is called the freest man in the world.
When the Great Master Je-ryeong became the King of the Underworld, the three of them, including the King of Power and the King of the Army, were called the Three Kings. However, after losing the battle with the Heavenly Demon, the two went into hiding. After going into hiding, the Poisonous King and the Dark King emerged and changed generations.
The same goes for the place of offering.
Excluding Xiahou Dun who killed the previous leader, the Changje of the previous generation, Yu Seong-hak, and became the Black Horse Changje, the remaining powerful and unstoppable Emperor Jin Yu, the Han Tianbing Emperor Liu Xuehan, the Shura Emperor Liu Jeha, and the Supreme Ultimate Sword Emperor Zong Yuncheng entered the empty throne without bloodshed.
Of course, it is possible because I have reached a certain level of wisdom. It would be funny to say that I didn’t shed any blood to get there.
However, this is in contrast to Xiahou Dun killing the previous emperor and taking the throne. The phrase “bloodless entry into the kingdom” is not wrong.
Three people were killed while sitting in the royal court during the Battle of Jeongma.
The two kings lived but lived in seclusion.
Surely that is the truth that the ambassador knows.
But, how does everything work?
I turned my head.
Two men and a woman in the distance come into view.
Those three people who were said to have died in the Jeongma War are alive and well over there.
Iron Blood Master Juyu, Brain Power Master Sildo, Byeokandan Master Jeonghwa.
What should I say? Those three people are clearly at the level of ‘Hyun-gyeong’. However, the momentum I feel is beyond Hyun-gyeong.
Is that all?
The two kings over there are the same. Those two are clearly masters of the Life and Death Mirror. It was definitely like that when I saw them in the past. But now, they look like Shinwha Mirror.
This was a fact that the ambassador himself could know because he was Shin Hwa-gyeong.
The great swordsman Hyuk Jin-gang said.
“Before that.”
“… …Before that?”
“Take a look at those over there too.”
I turned my head to follow Hyukjin Kang’s gaze. I saw three men in the distance.
I was surprised the moment I saw it.

What is this? At first, I thought my eyes were wrong. After all, I didn’t know everything.
“… … I understand one, but I don’t know two.”
First of all, let me say that he was stronger than the Master Je-ryeong himself.
It means that they are more than Shinwha Kyung. All three of them look very old. One of them is.
“Aren’t you one of the kings who were active 40 years ago?”
“You noticed. This is really embarrassing.”
It’s creepy to see the old man’s smile. Yes, that smile. That sinister smile. It’s for sure.
“The Demon King of Hwanhee, the Evil Buddha.”
He is not a master of the previous generation. He is a master of the previous generation.
Even the Emperor knows his infamy. No wonder his nickname is Demon King of Hwanhee, or Demon King.
There were rumors that he retired when he was old, and I guess he was here.
It was when I was looking at the Demon King of Hwanhee and the Evil Bulgun.
Hyukjin Kang speaks to Akbulgun.
“You haven’t gone yet? It was only yesterday that I told you to check out the area around the ‘coast.’”
“I was just waiting because I was curious when my new person came.”
It must have sounded like an excuse. Hyuk Jin-gang stared blankly at Akbul-gun without saying a word. He didn’t say anything, but Hyuk Jin-gang was a pretty big man.
He is well over 190cm tall. There was quite a distance between them, but it didn’t mean anything. Unable to resist that blatant gaze, Akbulgun clicks his tongue.
“Well, don’t rush me. Why don’t we go now?”
His hand cuts through the air. It was the same technique Hyukjin Kang used when he came in here.
Space travel.
In that way, Akbulgun disappeared. Not anyone else, but Akbulgun. I was inwardly surprised to see Hyukjin Kang treating Akbulgun, who was rumored to be the most notorious of the previous kings, like that.
“Ugh.”
I slowly looked around. Those who have reached the realm of the supernatural can walk around outside with their shoulders back, but not here. It was just a waste.
Of the 23, 20 are at least on the brink of life and death. They are monsters who use the preemptive strike. And the remaining 3 also seem to be on the brink of life and death.
I was curious about what the organization called Cheonwicheon was. However, the fundamental reason for my curiosity was because of the man who was called the freest man in the world, Geomjon Hyukjin Kang.
Although the Master Je-ryeong himself is called a free man in the world, he is not as free as Geom-jon. Geom-jon was the Master Je-ryeong’s idol. That’s why I was curious.
It was strange not to be curious. But now it’s a little different.
Because that wasn’t the reason I was curious. I was curious in a different way. Why did they gather these people like this, and what is that monster over there?
‘Why on earth?’
This question struck my head. I looked into the eyes of the sword master. The sword master slowly looked at the place where the Demon King of Hwanhee, who had just torn space and flown to another place, had been, and then looked at the other two old men. At the same time, he opened his mouth.
“Those two are King Salwang, Shinwoo, and King Changwang, Unmuje. They are the best masters of the previous generation. I will introduce the rest to you little by little, and I will tell you my purpose.”
Hyukjin Kang carries the load on his back.
“Cheonwicheon is an organization created to kill ‘Ragnarok’, which will be resurrected someday.”
Hyuk Jin-gang paused for a moment and looked around.
To be exact, I am looking at the previous masters who participated in the past Jeongma War.

“Those who begged for their lives from the Heavenly Horse and survived.”
Turn your head again.
He locked eyes with the aforementioned King Salwang, King Unmuje, and numerous other masters one by one.
“Even those who want to die meaningfully.”
Finally, he looks at the ambassador. A smile appears on Hyukjin Kang’s lips.
“We are the executors of this generation who are charged with keeping the peace of the world.”
Hyukjin Kang walks in. Hyukjin Kang stands in front of the Great Master Je-ryeong and holds out his hand.
The ambassador’s eyes could not take their eyes off Hyukjin Kang’s brightly smiling face.
Hyukjin Kang said.
“Would you like to do it together?”
