Episode 963
“A way to save a little bit of time….”
Martha swallowed dryly as she looked at Denier.
“Can you really shorten the time it takes to reach the Wall of Transcendence?”
Since I had only recently become a Grand Master, I thought it would take at least 10 years to reach the Wall of Transcendence.
Assuming that he had ascended to transcendence, ten years was an incredibly short period of time, but when he thought of his mother suffering under the White Blood Cult Leader, even one year, let alone ten years, seemed like a long time.
I couldn’t show it even though I was feeling suffocated and depressed, but when I heard Denier say that I could reduce that time, my heart started beating so fast that it felt like it was going to explode.
“It depends on you, but the chances are good.”
Denier nodded, saying that Martha could definitely do it.
“Hmm….”
The wall Martha was holding onto crumbled. Her fingertips were putting too much force into the wall, causing the bricks to break.
“That doesn’t mean you can reach the Wall of Transcendence right away.”
Denier shook his chin as he personally cleared the broken bricks.
“It just saves a little bit of time.”
“What method?”
Martha clenched her fists with her gravel-covered hands.
“Are you learning a new martial art? Or some special training?”
Since I was confident that I could endure any type of training, I immediately asked how.
“Both are necessary. But the focus is not on cultivation or on unlearning.”
Denier shook his head slowly.
“It’s an elixir.”
He took out a black-colored wooden box from his bosom, saying it was an elixir.
“Is it an elixir?”
“To be exact, it should be called poison rather than elixir.”
“Oh, poison?”
Martha glared at the black gauntlet.
“You don’t have to be afraid. Would I do anything to harm you?”
Denier waved his hand gently as if to calm him down.
“Of course I know. I was just surprised when you said it was poison.”
Martha smiled thinly and nodded.
‘If you don’t trust your father, who will you trust?’
Denier accepted her as his adopted daughter despite the opposition of the entire Sieghardt, and cared for her as if she were his own daughter.
He was the most trustworthy person along with Raon, because if he wanted to kill or use him, he could have done it a long time ago.
‘Besides, if you were really going to give me poison, you wouldn’t have even said it was poison.’
It was clear that he had no intention of deceiving himself, as he openly said that it was poison.
“But why the poison…?”
Martha looked at Denier with eyes filled with trust.
“The seaweed in this armor is a potion made from the poisonous plant called seaweed. It has the effect of putting people into a state of unconsciousness.”
Denier lifted his finger and drew a cloud-like shape.
“What’s the status of the lyrics?”
“Yes. But it is not a simple state of mindfulness. It is a state of super-concentration, which we call the state of no-self. Even in the world of imagination, you can enter the deepest part.”
He nodded heavily, saying that the moment he ate the seaweed soup, he could immediately enter a deep and profound world of imagination.
“In some ways, it would be similar in effect to the room of the ego. It would not be an exaggeration to say that it is a room of a small ego.”
Denier clenched his fists, thinking that the moment he ate the Haerucheng, he would enter a world of imagination and grow faster than anyone else.
“There was such a potion….”
Martha let out a gasp of surprise.
“It’s something I happened to get while on this mission. It’s been forgotten now that the Harucho is extinct, but its effectiveness is certain.”
He stroked the black wooden armor, saying that it was an elixir that could not be obtained even for ten million gold coins.
“Haru Cheong… .”
Martha trembled her fingers as she looked at the black gauntlet.
‘It’s a total scam.’
The world of the mind is not a place you can enter if you want to. It was surprising that you could force yourself into the world of the mind, which you can only enter at the moment of enlightenment by exerting extreme concentration. And that too in the deepest part.
‘If that’s true….’
It might take a few years.
If what Denier said was true, it would be possible to shorten the training period by at least a year. Sweat ran down my palms without me realizing it.
It was something that had to be accepted unconditionally, but there were a few things to think about.
“If it’s poison, there must be side effects, right?”
Marta bit her lip as she looked at the wooden armor of the Haru-Ching in Denier’s hand.
“Yes. There are side effects such as not being able to wake up from the lyric state or losing your memory.”
Denier spoke about the side effects of Haruqing in a calm tone.
“Failure to wake up, or loss of memory… .”
Martha lowered her eyebrows deeply.
‘I should say it’s not as bad as I thought.’
I thought that the side effects of the Haru-Ching were so good that I might die, but the loss of memory was acceptable depending on the degree.
“Of course there is a solution. Both side effects are due to going too deep into the world of imagination, so we just need to wake them up before the problem occurs.”
Denier shook his head, tapping his gauntlet lightly.
“If you eat the Haeru-cheong, I will stand guard and protect you, so you don’t have to worry.”
His eyes lit up with a serious light as he said that he could solve everything.

“hmm….”
Martha looked at the necklace again and shook her head.
“How long will I sleep if I eat this?”
“To see the effects, you need to be in a state of suspended animation for at least two months, and the limit without side effects would be about half a year.”
Denier pointed to the past records, saying that anyone who had been on it for more than six months had experienced side effects.
“Two months to six months….”
Martha stopped herself as she lifted her trembling hands to reach for the necklace.
“Thank you for thinking of me, but I don’t think it’s possible right now.”
“What is the reason?”
“Now is the most important time to establish a system for the Gwangpungjeon. As a leader, I cannot miss it.”
It was true that his mother was the most important thing to him, but Raon and his colleagues from the Gwangpungjeon were equally important to him. He couldn’t let everyone waste their important time because of him.
Even if you eat Haerucheong, it should be after the entire system of Gwangpungjeon is in place.
“Then I guess there’s nothing I can do.”
Denier smiled as if telling her to talk when it was convenient and put the armor back in his bosom.
“Thank you. Really….”
Martha lowered her head, biting her lip slightly.
“Family doesn’t talk like that.”
Denier stroked Martha’s head and shook his chin.
“And don’t tell anyone about Haeru-cheong. The fewer people who know about the treasure, the better.”
“Of course. I won’t tell anyone.”
Martha raised her hand, telling him not to worry.
“Oh, but why doesn’t Father drink the seaweed soup? To me… .”
“I don’t really need it. I just wanted you to eat it.”
Denier lowered his eyes as if it was unnecessary to him.
“You don’t need it?”
“Yes. I have already reached the wall of transcendence. I won’t be able to get over that high wall just by eating one piece of seaweed.”
He smiled faintly, saying that he wanted to give it to himself so that he could see a greater effect.
“The Wall of Transcendence…?”
Martha took a step closer to Denier.
“So, when Father stood at the Grand Master’s wall, did he enter and exit the room of the ego?”
“No. I did not enter the room of the ego.”
Denier shook his head, saying he had never been to the room of the ego.
“Huh? Why didn’t you go in! If you’re standing on the wall of transcendence, you can go into the room of the self and go over the wall like the Lord of the Heavy Armor!”
I wondered why Denier did not enter the room of the ego even though he was standing in front of the Wall of Transcendence.
“I didn’t think it was time yet. Unlike my brother, I haven’t been standing in front of the Wall of Transcendence for that long.”
Denier turned his wrist, saying that he needed to practice a little more.
“That common sense isn’t necessarily true! Even though Raon didn’t stand in front of the wall, he came out stronger than the person standing in front of the wall! The head of the household and the head of the military…”
Martha repeated the words of Karun and Glenn, who were evaluating Laon’s strength.
“When the room of the ego opens, go in right away! You have enough achievements!”
She grabbed Denier’s hand, saying that she could do it no matter what.
“If even my father becomes a Transcendent, then Sieghart will have five Transcendents!”
“Still, there are four.”
“Yes? Isn’t it five?”
Martha narrowed her eyes slightly.
“My lord, Lady Aris, Lord Jungmu, Raon, and my father. There are five of them, right?”
She tilted her head as if she found it strange.
“… Yes. You are right.”
Denier patted Martha on the head, telling her he had made a mistake.
“Hey, bland.”
Martha chuckled, saying she was surprised.
“Anyway, please make sure to go in! Please!”
She held out her little finger, saying, “Let’s make a promise.”
“Okay, I understand.”
Denier smiled thinly and linked pinky fingers with Marta.
“Then I’ll see you later tonight. I have to prepare to take care of the kids at Gwangpungjeon.”
Martha went into her room first to prepare for the whirlwind battle.
“… … .”
Denier watched Martha enter her room, then went into the study on the second floor.
Percussion.
He placed the black wooden box on the desk and carefully opened the lid.
The inside of the wooden box that Haru Cheong had intended to give to Martha was completely empty.
“Five… .”
Denier closed his empty pocketbook and smiled sadly like a dry leaf.
* * *
Sieghart’s 5th training ground.
It is usually a quiet place because it is located far from the main building, but now the ground is shaking from morning to evening due to the construction of the Gwangpungjeon.
Raon opened the door to the 5th martial arts studio and went inside, feeling a pleasant sound.
The inspectors of the Gwangpungjeon were waiting for him, standing in front of the podium, wearing black uniforms.
The sharp waves of air emanating from their fingertips seemed to send a tingling pain through my skin.
‘You’re starting to look more experienced now.’
It’s a power that can’t be judged by age.
-Isn’t that only natural, since the king raised him?
Las nodded, saying that since they are his subordinates, that much is basic.
‘Maybe so.’
Although the Gwangpungjeon Inspectors are young, they have experienced a lot of combat and training, so they now have the power and experience to be considered the best of the best.
A strange sense of pride filled my heart as I remembered each and every one of their childhoods.
Damn it.
Raon went up to the stage, expressing his admiration for the Gwangpungjeon.
“Hello, my lord!”
“Hello, my lord!”
All the swordsmen of the Gwangpungjeon bowed at the shout of Burren, who was standing at the very front.
“Everyone, stand up.”
Normally, I would have waved my hand, asking what kind of greeting it was, but today, since it was an important event in the Gwangpungjeon, I waved my hand and greeted my subordinates.
“Did you get some rest while I was away?”
Raon locked eyes with the Gwangpungjeon inspectors and raised his lips.
“Jeonju went in to practice, how could we rest! We just practiced.”
Martha shook her head vigorously, saying she spent her vacation practicing.
“I also felt that I had many shortcomings, so I just swung my sword at home.”
Buren frowned, saying that he trained in swordsmanship like Martha.
“I slept. Phew… .”
Runaan yawned deeply, saying that he had been having a blissful time not getting out of bed.
“I’ve been faithfully replenishing my supplies! Now I won’t be lacking anything!”
Dorian laughed, saying that he could take out anything. Judging by his bright face, it seemed that he had really filled up his supplies with peace of mind.
-Then tell them to bring out the bead ice cream right now!
Lars waved his chubby hand, suggesting they try it out.
“I thought I was going to die following this guy around… ”
Crane sniffled, saying it was harder than following his mom and dad to go shopping.
“How about Jeonju? I heard rumors are spreading that it has become more powerful.”
Trevin licked his lips, wondering how much stronger he had become.
“When your guy comes. It’s getting noisy. Damn the storm… .”
The monster sitting on the stage waved his hand. It seemed like he was asking me to be quiet, as he had a headache from drinking yesterday.
“Haha.”
Mark Gotten let out a hollow laugh, as if he enjoyed the noisy atmosphere of the whirlwind battle, unlike the collapse.
“Get the system organized quickly. I’m going crazy and I’m going to die.”
Dokai quickly drank water and told them to establish the organization and system of the Gwangpungjeon.
“All right.”
Raon nodded to the monster and stood at the end of the stage.
“I will now announce the organization chart and system of the Gwangpungjeon. There has been a lot of talk about the name Gwangpungjeon, but I plan to stick with the Gwangpungjeon as is.”
If it were something else, I would have received opposition, but I wanted to keep the name Gwangpung to remember Limer.
“yes!”
The inspectors of the Gwangpungjeon nodded without a single objection, as if they had no complaints.
“First of all, the Iron Corps will be the first corps of the Gwangpungjeon, just as its name suggests. Of course, the main corps will also be the same.”
Raon decided to make the Iron Troops the first battalion of the Gwangpungjeon, considering their strength, experience, and achievements.
“I obey your orders.”
“I obey your orders!”
At Trevin’s shout, the Iron Cross inspectors standing behind him simultaneously knelt and bowed their heads.
“The Gwangpungdae is divided into groups, following the leaders, because there are not enough inspectors.”
Raon nodded calmly while looking at Buren, Martha, and Runaan.
“Is it a single person?”
“Because there aren’t enough numbers to make a big deal.”
“I like them all.”
Martha, Buren, and Runaan curled their lips, saying they were satisfied with just being the leaders of the group.
“The name of the group was decided based on the alias of the group leader. The name of the group that Runaan will be in charge of is Manwoldan, after her alias, Manwolseonnyeo, and…”
Raon turned his fingertips as he watched Martha’s face turn bright red.
“The name of the group that Martha will be in charge of is Nachaldan, named after her nickname Nachalnyeo….”
“Hey you little shit!”
Martha stomped her feet violently and jumped onto the platform.
“Nachaldan? Show me what a real Nachaldan is? Huh?”
“Hold on, tea! We’re in an official event right now!”
Buren grabbed Martha’s shoulder as she tried to jump at Raon.
“Yeah. I like the name….”
Runaan muttered that it was an enviable name and smiled faintly. Looking at it now, this guy was also very playful.
“This damn ice girl’s group is the Manwol Group, and we are the Nacha! You damn things!”
Martha lashed out, saying she could never accept it.
“Well, that’s what happened. I plan on supplementing personnel through the upcoming selection ceremony. I want to promote the unit accordingly.”
Raon nodded, saying that he would promote both Manwoldan and Nachaldan.
“Good?”
“agree….”
Burren and Runaan nodded as if they agreed.
“I’m against it! No one will come under the name of the Nachaldan!”
Martha screamed, “Absolutely not!”
“It’s so cool. I want to change the Gwangpungjeon into a Nasaljeon.”
Raon said that he would have changed it right away if he had not been obsessed with the name Gwangpung.
“Well, not bad. Looks strong.”
Crane nodded as if he sympathized.
“It would be nice if the pattern was changed to something like a ghost.”
Burren snickered, drawing a ghostly image with his finger.
“Great praise!”
Runaan raised his hand, making a rare, loud noise.
“There are only crazy people….”
Martha already looked tired and hung her head.
“Well, enough joking.”
Raon waved his hand while looking at everyone.
“Huh? Huh huh… .”
Martha looked at Raon with expectant eyes.
“Next up is Sir Mark Gotten.”
But Raon betrayed her expectations and called Mark Gotten’s name.
“Sir Mark Gotten said that it is better to be in a minority, so please take charge of the law of the tempest.”
I took Mark Gotten’s advice that it is better to fight alone than to take charge of a group, so I chose him as the guardian of the storm.
“It is an honor! I will risk my life to protect you, my lord!”
Mark Gotten knelt down, vowing to be Jeonju’s shadow as a jurist.
“I will send Dorian and Crane down.”
Dorian and Crane are the strongest swordsmen in the Gwangmyeong War, aside from Trevin and the three captains. They each have their own specialties, so moving together with Mark Gotten will be a great help.
“uh…?”
Burren’s eyes widened when Mark Gotten became the guardian. He seemed surprised at the difference in the organizational structure from what he had expected.
“and….”
Raon smiled faintly as he looked at the bewildered Burren.
“I appoint Burren Sieghart as the Vice-Chancellor of the Tempest War.”
Without the slightest hesitation, Burren’s name was placed in the position of the vice-minister.
“How, how could I…?”
Burren’s chin shook as if he thought Mark Gotten would be the default.
“Burren. You are the only one who can control and comfort the rascals of the Tempest War in my stead.”
Raon came down from the stage. He patted Buren on the shoulder, saying that he believed in him.
“eww….”
Burren closed his eyes tightly as if he was deeply moved, then opened them and knelt down, bending his back.
“I will repay your trust even if it means risking my life!”
Instead of saying thank you, he shouted that he would repay my trust. I liked that answer better.
“The personnel of the 3rd Gwangpung Group that Buren was in charge of will be transferred half to the Manwol Group and the Nachaldan.”
Raon put his hand down after finishing assigning the remaining personnel.
“Now that the basic organizational chart is complete, shall we create a system?”
“yes?”
“Isn’t it all over?”
“Aren’t system and organization chart the same thing?”
The inspectors opened their eyes wide as if they had no idea what he was talking about.
“training.”
Raon nodded his head with a thin smile.
“The system of the inspectors is ultimately based on force. I have prepared a very special training program to enhance your force.”
He turned his wrist, saying that this was a different kind of training than before.
“Oh! The Lord’s training?”
“I’m looking forward to it.”
“It is a training course prepared by the Transcendent One himself. It is a coincidence.”
The prosecutors from the Iron Troops smiled and nodded as if they were looking forward to it.
“Oh, it’s come… .”
“I should have taken sick leave….”
“Damn! I didn’t know I’d have to start training right away.”
On the other hand, those from Gwangpungdae had pale faces and chins shaking as if they were facing hell.
“Everyone, move to the entrance of Bukmangsan Mountain.”
“Let’s go… .”
Buren, as expected from a wealthy man, led the struggling inspectors to Bukmangsan Mountain.
“hmm….”
The monster slowly got up and shook his head.
“Now that the whirlwind has turned into a whirlwind battle, I guess I’m no longer needed.”
He shook his head, saying that it had been difficult so far.
“There will be more difficult things ahead, but keep working hard… .”
“Where are you going?”
Raon shook his head, asking why he was leaving.
“Didn’t I tell you? Since the Gwangpungdae has become a Gwangpungjeon, now I have to….”
“Your Majesty, you are making a very big mistake.”
He smiled and waved his hand.
“Wh, what are you talking about…?”
Do-gwae swallowed dryly, as if he was taken aback by Raon’s relaxed appearance.
“Your Majesty, you are not the commander of the Gwangpungdae, but of the annex. Has it been so long that you have forgotten?”
Raon shrugged his shoulders, telling her to remember well.
“Huh? Hey hey hey!”
Dokai opened his mouth wide as if memories from before came flooding back to him.
“That means, even if you want to get out, you can’t.”
Raon shook his head, telling her not to worry.
“Hey, wait! No, then how long do I have to stay here!”
“For life.”
He shook his head, saying that he could never escape it.
“And the General, you should also go to Bukmangsan. It would be good to train together from now on. Don’t let other thoughts come to you.”
Raon shook his head, saying that now even the general can’t escape.
“Zenjaaaaang!”
The goblin grabbed his head and said that he was ruined because he spoke for nothing.
-Even an old man like that is being punished… .
Lass’s chin trembled as he looked at the smiling Raon and the howling Dokkaebi.
-He is truly a wicked man.
‘Even the Demon King uses people as slaves, so wouldn’t it be okay to use old people?’
Raon waved his hand, asking why he was so surprised.
-You enslave the Demon King? Who…?”
He pointed his finger at the guy as Lars tilted his head.
-The King? The King… Ah!
Lass now realized that he too was in the same situation as his slave and started to act evilly.
“Ahhhhhhh!”
-Eww!
“Okay, let’s go.”
Raon climbed Bukmangsan Mountain while listening to the harmony between humans and demons.
“As long as I don’t die, that’s fine.”
Should we start with the Hellfire hike?
