Crackling.
The bonfire was eating firewood and creating flames. A little above the bonfire, the meat on a long tree branch was cooked until golden brown. It was the meat of a monster, possibly a tiger or a bear, that had been cut in two by Cheok Jun-kyung a little while ago.
Cheok Jun-gyeong rummaged through the branches with meat on them a few times, then picked up one of them and held it out to Jeong-do.
“Okay, that’s it. Try it. Even though it looks like this, the meat quality is good.”
“thank you.”
Jeong-do carefully accepted the tree branch. At the tip of the branch was a large piece of well-cooked meat. Jeong-do took a big bite of meat.
As if he was satisfied with the sight, Cheok Jun-gyeong asked Do-do with sparkling eyes.
“how is it? Isn’t it delicious? Actually, the reason I came here today was to catch this guy. “This thing only lives around here.”
After saying that, Cheok Jun-gyeong also took a bite of meat and looked the happiest in the world. He felt as if he had eaten a delicacy that would never exist again in the world.
But to be honest, I didn’t feel that it was that delicious. It had a bit of a stinging smell typical of wild animals, and the meat was so tough that it was hard to say that the meat quality was good even with empty words. Since the meat was not particularly aged, it was only natural.
In short, it meant that they were no different from wild animals on Earth. I thought that the meat would taste heavenly if it were the spiritual leaders of the wireless world… Food animals raised on farms were much more delicious.
But there was no need to tell the truth to someone you liked so much. He was a person who knew that a certain degree of decency was politeness.
“yes. Delicious. And I’m sorry for swinging the knife.”
“knife? Ah, yes, it was in a cave. Well, you’re not hurt, so there’s nothing to worry about.”
Looking back, it was a strange thing.
To a certain extent, I thought of myself as a person with common sense.
But you’re brandishing a knife just because someone talked to you behind your back? If you think about your usual self, it wasn’t normal behavior.
But now I think I know why.
Although Jeong Do himself could not even feel the presence of Cheok Jun-gyeong right behind him in the cave, he realized the <Cheonmujiche> sleeping within him.
This means that the being behind his back possessed a different level of force.
The sword he wielded could be explained in one sentence.
The survival instinct told me to do it.
Overwhelmed by the huge presence, I swung my sword without realizing it. It was the same principle as a frightened dog barking louder.
“Well, now that I’ve filled my stomach, let’s listen to the story.”
Although it was quite a large amount of meat, Cheok Jun-gyeong ate it up in an instant as if he was a glutton. Then he threw away the branch and said:
“Oh, you don’t have to talk about it if you don’t want to. “Because I don’t want to be forced to listen.”
“it’s okay. Because I gained a lot from the general. “I think I’m paying off my debt.”
“hmm? I only gave you meat… Well, anyway, it’s good.”
Is it because I loaded the scope twice? Jeongdo felt great affection and respect for him. Ixia also sent signals that she was a ‘good person.’
And it was the same for Cheok Jun-kyung.
Although Cheok Jun-gyeong didn’t know, Raine’s blessing had already been applied. No matter who you meet, you make a first impression. Cheok Jun-kyung was no exception.
He asked Do in an excited voice.
“Are you really not my descendants? “You’re from Goryeo, right?”
“It’s similar, but to be precise, it’s different. “Because Goryeo has already been destroyed.”
“what? Is Goryeo ruined? when?”
“Well let’s see… “It’s probably about 700 years ago.”
I think I memorized the year Joseon was founded when I was a student, but I couldn’t remember it exactly now. I think it was roughly between 1300 and 1400… … If so, it would roughly be around 700 years ago.
Cheok Jun-gyeong was so surprised by Jeong-do’s answer that he opened his mouth wide.
‘Did you ever think that Goryeo would continue for a thousand or ten thousand years?’
However, the reason why Cheok Jun-gyeong was surprised was not because Goryeo was destroyed.
“So you’re saying I’m at least 700 years old? “Wow, this was a really old man.”
“… … .”
“Don’t look at me like that. Most people here don’t care about time. Huh, it’s still shocking that it’s been over 700 years. “It feels like I entered the wireless world just yesterday.”
Is getting older really that shocking? Cheok Jun-gyeong took a deep breath and then looked at Jeong-do. And he nodded.
“I see. If 700 years had passed, the genealogy would have been messed up a few times. Is that why you said he wasn’t a descendant? Wait, he wasn’t even Chuck in the first place.”
And Cheok Jun-kyung’s question that followed was a natural question.
“Then why are you learning my sword techniques? “There was a lot of this and that mixed up, but there were definitely signs that he had mastered my swordsmanship.”
Cheok Jun-gyeong’s sword method was something he created himself, and from then on, it was a household sword method that only family members learned. This was the reason why I suspected that he was a descendant when I saw the sword he was swinging.
“I’m learning the art of possession.”
“Possession? “Is it haunted?”
“Yes, that one. When I was fighting Musinma, I used the magic of possession to summon General Cheok Jun-kyung. “The swordsmanship was probably evident at that time.”
“What do you mean… I don’t remember being called? No, but who did you fight with for a moment?”
“It’s a person named Mushinma… Oh, now that I think about it, you might know. “It must be here.”
“You know that well. He’s pretty famous here. “I’ve never fought with him because he’s not on the same level as me.”
The level is not right?
Jeong Do felt doubtful about those words and tried to ask Cheok Jun-gyeong something, but Cheok Jun-gyeong spoke a little faster than him.
“Did you win?”
“yes?”
“You won? “You said there was a fight?”
“Mushinma said he lost, but honestly, I think it was a draw. He cut off an arm, but I don’t know what would have happened if he had had more time… ”
“Oh, right. I heard he got his arm cut off recently. “But now we’re back together.”
Cheok Jun-gyeong nodded as if he was very satisfied. It seemed that the relationship between Martial God Demon and Cheok Jun-kyung was not very good. However, Cheok Jun-gyeong soon tilted his head as if it was strange.
“But how did you win? Honestly, I don’t think I can beat you at your current level. “It’s not a difference that can be narrowed down to a fluke.”
“I told you earlier. I loaded the general with the magic of possession. So it was possible.”
“What is that? Wasn’t it just a joke? “I don’t remember being summoned?”

“You are both the general and the general. “The person I brought over is the general of ‘Real Universe.’”
“The real universe? “What does that mean?”
At this level of explanation, Cheok Jun-gyeong frowned as if he was having a headache. Apparently, unlike the dwarves, Cheok Jun-kyung did not know the existence of the ‘real universe’.
I explained the real universe as briefly as possible. However, after hearing the truthful explanation, Cheok Jun-kyung’s expression said, ‘Why are there all these crazy people?’
He opened his mouth as if he was dumbfounded.
“So, there is a world just like this one, and there I am, you are there, there are warrior demons, etc.? And the kids in that world are stronger than the kids here, and you called me over there and cut off the Musinma’s arm?”
“… “It’s not wrong, but it’s weird saying it like that.”
“I’m really sorry to say this when we first met, but I think your head is weird.”
Although it was unfair that he only told the truth, I could understand Cheok Jun-kyung’s situation. He reacted like that when he first heard about the real universe from Winry.
There’s nothing you can do if you don’t believe it.
Jeongdo did not force understanding.
“Anyway, since I defeated Musinma like that, I gave him an invitation. That’s why I was able to come into the wireless world.”
“That’s right. “If you don’t believe it, you are clearly using my swordsmanship, and if you believe that, it is nonsense.”
Cheok Jun-gyeong stroked his beard again and was lost in thought. But he couldn’t accept it this time, so he scratched his head and shouted.
“Let’s get the complicated stuff out of the way. What’s important is that you learned my sword technique and cut off the Musinma’s arm with it, right? So, the sharp Musinma gave you an invitation, and you came here because you wanted to become stronger.”
“… Yes.”
“very good. It’s easy to understand. And it’s clear what to do. Come on, descendants. “Follow me.”
“So they are not descendants.”
Jeong-do grumbled a little, but Cheok Jun-kyung didn’t care and stood up. And he walked towards the waterfall.
fault.
Cheok Jun-gyeong climbed the cliff next to the waterfall. The degree also followed suit. The two arrived at the top of the cliff in an instant.
“degree. Why do you think Musinma gave you an invitation?”
“well. Since it was clearly given as a reward, doesn’t it mean that you should come here, get the elixir, meet a good teacher, and become stronger?”
“Kkkkkk. Well, there must be some intention behind it. But that’s not all. “He is very arrogant and his ego is through the roof.”
For some reason, the beginning was unsettling.
Cheok Jun-kyung smiled and continued as if he thought it would be very fun.
“It’s a very simple reason. It means that we will stick together again. Other reasons are just secondary. “That’s the kind of guy he is.”
“… “Wouldn’t it be okay if I didn’t fight?”
“ok? why? The Musinma is not yet ripe, but I am still a bastard. Rather, he is too much for you, isn’t he?”
“What does that have to do with fighting?”
“It’s an opportunity to fight a strong opponent, isn’t it? “You’re throwing this away?”
Cheok Jun-gyeong asked as if he didn’t understand.
Although he treated Jeong Do kindly, he was also a military person to the core, considering radish the most important thing. He didn’t understand the extent of his sincere refusal to fight.
“I want to become stronger. “I don’t like fighting.”
“Hehe. Probably not? You are definitely the same. It smells like that. Those who received martial arts talent from heaven have no choice but to do so. You did that too earlier. Although Mushinma admitted defeat, he said he thought it was a draw. “It’s proof that you feel uneasy about the result in your heart.”
“… no.”
“Well, if you want to believe that, I won’t stop you. But I recommend competing with Musinma. “That’s the fastest way for you to become stronger.”
“… “Then what?”
Fighting with Musinma is just a means to become stronger. It’s never because I want to fight.
Jeong Do cast a spell on himself and pretended that he couldn’t win and accepted Cheok Jun-kyung’s advice.
“How do we meet? “Is there a Mushinma nearby?”
“That’s not true, but you can contact me. “I’ve met you a few times.”
“okay. Oh, by the way, you said earlier that Musinma was famous, right?”
“okay. That guy is Radio’s previous student. He must be famous.”
“wireless?”
“Okay, wireless. He is the master of the wireless world here. It’s a truly incredibly strong spirit tank. no way.”
Cheok Jun-gyeong said as if he was annoyed just thinking about it. I couldn’t help but ask this question about his reaction.
“Have you ever fought?”
“… “That’s not important now.”
“You had a fight. Did you win? Did you lose?”
“No, that’s not important… ”
“You lost.”
“Err! Damn it! Yes, I lost! Do you have to expose your ancestors’ shame to feel better?!”
Cheok Jun-gyeong glared at Jeong-do once and sighed. And, ‘It was only a piece of paper difference.’, ‘If only I had a little better luck…’ ‘I started muttering the same thing.
Jeongdo lightly ignored the loser’s excuses.
“Then why did you come up here?”
“I came up because I was going to call Musinma now. “Cover your ears.”
“yes?”
I felt doubtful about the degree and asked back, but Cheok Jun-gyeong was already increasing his internal strength. When he felt an unusually strong energy wave, he quickly covered his ears.
And Cheok Jun-gyeong screamed, blood forming in his neck.
“Mushinma!!! “You damn naked bastard!!!”
“Huh?!”
Among the commonly used metaphors, there is an expression that says, ‘The mountains, rivers and trees trembled.’
It was a word mainly used to express a scary appendix, but at this moment, Do-do realized that it was not a metaphor.
The mountains, rivers, and trees literally trembled.
The sound waves that started from the scope spread out and the entire forest began to shake. Trees nearby began to be uprooted and leaves fell.
“hmm. Will you come now? “It’s been a while since I screamed loudly, and my throat hurts a bit.”
“What kind of ignorance… ”
I heard there was a way to contact them, so I thought there was some kind of magic crystal ball. No, I thought I would at least use Jeonseo-gu.
But such a one-dimensional method!
It was clear that if he really came to me by calling me this way, he was definitely not in his right mind.
But I realized the extent after a while.
The truth is that he is the only normal person in this wireless world.
A terrifying energy wave flew towards us from afar. Cheok Jun-gyeong whistled and muttered.
“oh. It’s fast today. “You seem to be in a bad mood.”
“… … .”
Wow, they really come when I call them.
Jeongdo could only laugh at the macho nature of <Thousands of Beings>.
