Episode 490
Yoo Jae-ha’s worries remained. The fact that the veiled organization called Cheon-wi-cheon was involved was a problem, but the number of beggars of the open world was, no matter how you looked at it, a bigger problem than Cheon-wi-cheon.
If they keep coming, then when will I be able to sleep and rest?
Jack stands up from his seat. He places a hand on Yu Je-ha’s shoulder, who still can’t shake off his worries.
“You said you were coming to the Western Continent?”
“… … That’s right.”
“The man who wants to be my people is worrying about useless things.”
It felt like lightning struck my head.
“Do you want the person you serve to be someone’s pawn, someone’s puppet, someone to be manipulated by someone, like a scarecrow?”
“Absolutely not.”
“The emperor who rules over the Western Continent you are trying to come to is you.”
“… … .”
“Surprisingly, he has a very broad mind, so even when he crosses the line, he gives a warning. Do you know why he does that?”
I didn’t know. I shook my head because I didn’t know.
“Because it’s annoying.”
“… … .”
“I’ve killed too many people in my life. There’s not a day that goes by when my hands don’t bleed. It’s the same now, but honestly, I’ve killed more people on the Western Continent than I have on the Eastern Continent. This is when the phrase “a little blood to stop” comes into play.”
And maybe there were more deaths on the Eastern Continent, he just didn’t say anything.
Jack put his hand down. The full moon was still in the sky.
Jack said, turning his back on the moon.
“It may seem contradictory, but I don’t really like killing people.”
“… … .”
“Actually, I’ve killed a lot of people over the years, but I’ve never started it.”
“… … .”
“In some way, they were trying to use me, or put me in a game they had created, or manipulate me, or target people around me. Just leave it at that.”
“… … Please finish speaking.”
Jack laughs slightly.
“That’s the kind of guy I am.”
“… … .”
“As I showed you before at Dangwangsan, I neither avoid nor hide. That is the path I have walked and the path I will walk, so do you know why I keep saying this?”
Yoo Je-ha nodded. There was no way he didn’t know. This man was talking now.
If you want to become my people, if you want to come into the Western Continent as a resident, you must first change your way of thinking.
This wasn’t just something said to Yoo Jae-ha.
It was also said to Xiahou Dun and Xiahou Ying, who were in the corner over there.
At this moment, Yoo Je-ha was standing at a crossroads of choice.

If you want to become a true citizen of the Western Continent, not just a citizen in name only, you must accept it.
The emperor you serve is this kind of guy.
The Supreme Being you will serve is this kind of person, so don’t doubt him. If you don’t think it will work, then it’s not too late, so don’t even start.
Yoo Je-ha closed his eyes.
It makes me laugh strangely.
“Your life is a very tiring life.”
“It may be so, depending on how you look at it.”
At this moment, Yoo Je-ha acted on instinct.
I got down on my knees.
“I think we’ll need someone to help out below to relieve that fatigue, but I think this can handle the job to some extent.”
Then he quickly shakes his head, as if something is wrong.
Then he said again.
“I will ease your fatigue. Accept me as your subject.”
He pulled out the sword and held it out towards Jack, laying it horizontally.
“I will serve you.”
Jack looked up. He looked up at the sky. The full moon was still huge.
Two strong men in the offering position volunteer to take the lead.
Their personalities aren’t bad either. They’re guys worth taking along.
There was no hesitation. This was a certainty. It was confirmation of something that had been lukewarm for some time.
Jack reached out and placed his hand on Yujeha’s shurado.
The energy flowed in naturally and Yu Je-ha’s body rose.
“Let’s do better in the future.”
“……insect-!”
Yu Je-ha stood up from his seat. Ha Hou-dun, who was nearby, also approached. The two men’s expressions were filled with curiosity. Their expressions were very similar. The two men were curious about the same thing.
It was Xiahou Dun who asked the question.
“What does your ‘lord’ plan to do now?”
Just as Yu Je-ha changed his speech, Xiahou Dun also changed his speech.
Not in the tone of the Eastern Continent, but in the tone of the Western Continent.
In fact, even if you don’t live in the Western Continent, you will be able to tell what is polite after speaking to someone a few times.
Jack answered Xiahou Dun’s question.
“There is a magic called teleportation in the Western Continent.”
“Teleport, you mean?”

“It’s a magic that allows you to move through space. If you don’t understand it, look over there.”
Jack pointed to one side with his hand.
This is the Demon Palace. It is the Demon Palace Castle of the Demon Palace where Yu Je-ha resides.

This is where Yujeha’s vassals, that is, his personal guards and servants, live.
However, the ‘man’ in the corner of the wall that Jack was pointing at was not a member of the family living in the palace.
His hair was messy and extremely dirty, and his clothes were worn. But strangely, rather than looking dirty, he looked extremely pious.
There were wrinkles on his forehead, a black beard on his chin, and his eyes were very large. The two pupils sparkled.
Yu Je-ha and Xiahou Dun both swallowed their saliva at the same time. They realized who the man was.
In fact, you can’t help but know. He is a contemporary master.
Even if you go missing, you can’t not know.
“Gwangjon… … Wonjae?”
The light-born Wonjae, one of the three Lords and the pre-war leader of the Opening, looks at Jack. He opens his mouth. A murderous aura covers the surroundings.
“Did you touch our children?”
* * *
The beggars of the open world are fast. The reason they can survive in the world of martial arts is because they are fast. In particular, they are unparalleled in gathering information and conveying that information.
On the night of the full moon, the drunkard of the palace died. His eyes were gouged out, his nose was crushed, his heart burst, and his throat was cut off. He was sent straight to the emperor of the west.
It took only five minutes for the news to spread to all branches of the Open.
The reason this was possible was because they did not use ‘Cheonjo’, which is classified as a special communication method. They used ‘communication ports’.
In fact, hints have appeared several times.
Where did the dragons come from? They came from the Eastern Continent. Where did the magic they used come from? It started from the Eastern Continent.
The martial arts of the Eastern Continent are all martial arts that systematize magic and physically use that systematized magic.
It means that the essence of martial arts is to assimilate the body itself with mana by containing its attributes.
Jack is not the first to create a communications port on the Western Continent.
The communication port already existed before that. Jack simply added a wiretapping function to it and improved it a little.
It would have been stranger if such a ‘convenient’ means of communication had not existed on the Eastern Continent.
But in this eastern continent, pigeons are flown. Pigeons are a means of communication. They also use falcons, spirits, and birds. They do not know the existence of communication channels.
Only Cheon-oe-cheon uses the telecommunications port.
Gaebong is a private organization outside of Cheon-oe-cheon. That is why Gaebong uses communication channels.
Even though it may only be used by a very small minority of people, its existence is important.
The reason why openness allows for quick information gathering and transmission is because it uses communication channels. This is the background to why the death of a drunkard could spread throughout the country in just 5 minutes.
Gwangjon Wonjae, a member of Cheonwicheon and one of the three Lords, also heard the news.
“Amazon, how dare that crazy bastard… … .”
My fists clenched. Tendons formed between my eyebrows. Anger welled up.
The history of openness goes back hundreds of years.
There have been many who have fought for openness and scepticism over the centuries. And openness has always been the winner.
Because, as I said before, Gaebong is a private organization outside of Cheonwicheon.
Cheonwicheon is full of monsters. Cheonwicheon has a history of over hundreds of years. Most of the masters who have taken refuge in the martial arts world belong to Cheonwicheon, and they wait for the resurrection of Ragnarok and pass on their martial arts.
Even if Ragnarok is not resurrected, their legacy will remain. Disciples who use their martial arts will emerge.

Cheonwicheon is not only filled with monsters who use their skills. There are disciples that these monsters bring from all over the country. It is a kind of training center for talented people. Most of them end up in Cheonwicheon rather than becoming famous in the martial arts world.
And unfortunately, those who haven’t reached a certain level, that is, those who lack talent, infiltrate the world of martial arts as the vassals of the Gaeboongi or other martial arts masters. They even have their own nicknames, but the important thing is the overall situation.
It’s such a boring life. It’s not just boring, it’s hellish.
An organization that has power but cannot use it properly and only has to watch what others say is Cheonwicheon. This is exactly why the Akbulgun wanted to extend his lifespan.
Because I don’t want to grow old and die so nobly. Even if I belong to the world of the living, I don’t want to die so foolishly. Because I want to use my power more. Because I want to command the world more.
“I really wanted to die.”
If you touch the opening, the masters of the Heaven and Earth will come out and kill the person who touched the opening. If necessary, they will even exterminate the entire clan.
It was tradition, it was history, it was spirit.
Boom-!
Gwangjon slammed his fist into the wall. With a thud, the wall came crashing down.
Hyukjin Kang, the sword master and leader of Cheonwicheon, has never once said anything like “don’t mess with the emperor of the west”.
Above all, a drunkard.
Kwang-Jun knows what that guy looked like when he was young. He used to follow him around and even helped him out for a few months.
The Emperor of the West killed the guy. Then.
The emperor of the west must also die.
There was no hesitation. I tore through the space and moved.
Archery.
That’s where I made eye contact with the guy.
He didn’t even care about the Black Magic Spear Emperor Xiahou Dun or the Sura Emperor Liu Jieha who were nearby.
“There is a magic called teleportation in the Western Continent.”
“Teleport, you mean?”
“It’s a magic that allows you to move through space. If you don’t understand it, look over there.”
There was a smile on the corner of his mouth. Gwangjon Wonjae took it as a laugh.
Everyone’s eyes are focused on Gwang-Jeon. Gwang-Jeon asked.
“Did you touch our children?”
The Emperor of the West shrugged.
“Are you an ignorant little brat? Where did your self-introduction go?”
“Ha… … That little brat has gone crazy.”
“It’s not me who’s crazy, it’s you.”
Gwang-Jeon laughed. Why Gwang-Jeon?
The light of Gwangjon is not light light, but madness.
“The man from the west has touched something he shouldn’t have.”
The Emperor made a subtle gesture. It wasn’t directed at Guangjon, but at the people around him. It was a gesture telling them to step back.
But the mouth did not rest.
“What shouldn’t you touch? That bastard I killed earlier?”

“… … .”
“I think you said that he was the Ark of Openness, right?”
The last words were not spoken to Gwangjeon. They were spoken to Yoo Jeha, who had stepped back from a distance.
Yoo Jae-ha nodded. That answer was enough.
