Words from my death (1)
I returned home.
I was supposed to have returned from training in the mountains, but Gwangdu-man knew that I had gone to catch Kwak Do-su.
“Because of you, I can’t live up to my name.”
As expected, the guy’s eyes were bugged. It looks like he couldn’t sleep well because he was worried about me.
“You bastard, don’t worry about me.”
“How can you not be worried? I really would rather die than get sick. So what happened? really… … “Did you catch him?”
I nodded firmly.
“I am a person who can never live with debt.”
“Did you kill him?”
“of course.”
Gwangdu covered his mouth and trembled. You bastard, come and spread your shock and fear later when you hear the news that Gokbu branch manager Gongjong has gone missing.
“By the way, did you practice your mind diligently? Give it a try.”
“Who are you worried about? … .”
With an uncertain look on his face, Gwangdu sat down and started eating breakfast.
I put in a bit of my strength and checked to see if he was doing well. He was doing exactly as taught and doing it well, compared to his death.
“done. “This is great.”
“Is that true?”
Gwangdu was very happy. Really, if I added even one word of praise, I felt like I would burst into tears.
“Why do you like it so much?”
“It’s the first compliment I’ve heard from you since learning martial arts.”
“Don’t keep giving meaning to it unnecessarily.”
“no! “It is an unforgettable moment for me.”
Suddenly, I thought of Baekpyo, who was in charge of the escort. He was a truly sentimental person who was happy to see his first snow. Now that I think about it, coincidentally, the people closest to me have this sentimental side.
“Now, from now on, I’ll teach you how to eat herbivores.”
“ah!”
Gwangdu was thrilled again. I had him bring the cheap sword he had bought. He felt that he would have to buy him a decent sword sometime soon.
First of all, three of the seven chosiks of the Namhae Chilsik were taught first.
It was not because there was a specific reason, but because I thought it would be boring to teach just one lesson over and over again, and it would be confusing to teach more than four.
“Once you get used to these three herbivores, I will teach you the rest.”
“Thank you, Master.”
“Train without even sleeping. “There are tests out of the blue.”
“And what if you die from overwork?”
“A lazy person never dies from overwork.”
“What if you fall into a coin trap!”
“Only smart people fall into that too.”
Gwangdu pouted his mouth. But I could feel it. How happy Gwangdu is. Perhaps he will really save up on sleep at night and practice.
Aren’t you really worried that you might die from overwork?
you’re welcome. Gwangdu is a smart guy. He felt it before when he was digging for information. It has the instinct to sense danger and know how to avoid it. He will also be able to control the intensity of his training well.
After teaching the three Chosik, I was about to turn around when Gwangdu spoke.
“But, Master, something has changed.”
As expected, this guy has an amazing sense of humor. I can’t believe I’m noticing changes that even my parents couldn’t notice.
“what?”
“I don’t know what it is… … “You feel calmer somehow.”
Gwangdu looked at my face for a while and then said in surprise.
“omg! no way? Did you find a girl when you went this time? Yes? slept? “I slept!”
Damn, I couldn’t even look at this woman.
After shrugging my shoulders and telling me to keep wondering, I walked out. Gwangdu shouted from behind.
“You can’t betray Song Xiaoje!”
Hey, you can only say betrayal if you have trust in each other.
“Just train hard! So don’t betray yourself!”
* * *
The next day, the long-awaited news finally arrived.
Gwangdu ran hurriedly and shouted.
“young master! We’re in big trouble! “The Murim Lord has passed away!”
It felt strange to hear about my death through someone else.
It’s been a month and a half since I died. The fact that they have finally made the announcement means that there has been a lot of worry about selecting the next leader.
Meetings would have been held every day, and the leaders of each organization would have had a huge battle of wits. Because their position could be in jeopardy depending on who becomes the leader.
The reason I felt at ease was because Gangho was peaceful. There will be no internal figures or external forces trying to take over the Murim Alliance right away.
“okay?”
“What kind of reaction is this?”
“What kind of reaction did you expect? “Are you shedding any tears?”
“At least we should be surprised.”
“surprised.”
you don’t know How surprised I was. Because I really didn’t know I would die like that.
“Now Kangho has turned upside down. Not only the martial people, but everyone who speaks now is talking about Lord Maeng. It’s not like everyone gathered in the guest room and making a fuss. “Let’s go too.”
Gwangdu pulled my arm.

I followed along, pretending not to be able to resist, but I was actually more curious. How everyone talks about my death.
Dead people remain in many ways. Some are glorified, some fall to the ground, and some are forgotten.
What about me?
In fact, not only the nearby guesthouse but also the people on the street were all talking about me.
“How did they die? “Hasn’t he been assassinated?”
“He said no. “I heard he just died in his sleep.”
“I’m blessed, I’m blessed.”
“Anyway, who will be the next leader?”
“I know.”
“I’m worried. “All kinds of people will come forward and try to take over the position of leader.”
“Is there a proper leader candidate?”
“No. “Cheon Ha-jin has been doing this for too long.”
“but. “I’ve been doing it for over thirty years.”
I was a little hurt when I heard that I had eaten it.
I thought I had sacrificed my whole life for the strong people. Are you saying that they only get that kind of evaluation?
Moreover, there was not a single word of condolences about my death.
I feel like my life, which I lived for Kang-ho, has been completely denied.
In my heart, I wanted to say this while hitting each person on the back of the head mercilessly.
-You guys, I lived a life where I couldn’t even sleep because I was worried about you!
Meanwhile, I also had that thought. Isn’t he originally a leader and a position to be criticized? Everyone has to curse like that and let out the anger they have built up in real life.
‘Okay, swear at me. If that’s how you relieve your anger, feel free to do whatever you want.’
A really bad guy wouldn’t be swearing at me in a place like this. Like Yang Ki-cheol or Gongjong, who died to me, he must be in a dark place, concentrating on satisfying his desires.
Gwangdu, who was sitting across from me at that time, blurted out.
“What kind of person was the Lord?”
At least among the people in this room, you know best. Because I’m sitting right in front of you.
“well.”
“I think it would be very disappointing. “To die in the position of leader.”
“why?”
“Is that so? Because you die while being in the happiest place in the world. ah! “If it were me, I don’t think I could die of injustice!”
happiness?
Was I really happy?
Everyone was afraid of me and found it difficult. I had loyal subordinates who sacrificed their lives for my orders, but there was an invisible wall between them and me. I had never even had an in-depth conversation with Gal Sa-ryang, the commander-in-chief.
No one told me the truth.
I was like that too.
Although Baekpyo, who was in charge of the guard, was the most comfortable, he still could not completely shake off the feeling of distance between the leader and the guard. At least he would have been.
The solitude of all beings.
I didn’t know if I was happy or not, but I was certain that I at least lived a lonely life.
“Anyway, how do you select the next leader?”
Gwangdu shook his head in response to the question.
“I don’t know either.”
You can’t tell me, but I know exactly.
If the leader has decided on a successor, that successor takes over.
Considering his age of 70, I might have suggested that he appoint a successor, but all of his subordinates looked at me. Because I corrected it so much and the successor issue was a very sensitive area.
Anyway, no one thought I would die. Because he was very healthy and his martial arts skills had reached their peak.
When there is no successor, the heads of the top ten organizations within the Murim Alliance gather to nominate candidates, and they vote again to determine the leader.
It was this way that I was selected earlier. If the former leader had not been poisoned by the Black Island Thirteen Alliance, I might have lived forever as a free person in the Ganghu.
Anyway, I heard later that the heads of the ten organizations at the time were all in favor of making me the leader. That’s how powerful my skills were.
In any case, this is the rule, and in the end, the will of Gal Sa-ryang, the commander-in-chief, will be greatly reflected. The organizations directly under me, the most powerful among the ten organizations, will support him.
The problem is that there is no strong leader candidate that comes to mind.
That may be the reason why my death was not known until a month and a half had passed.
Still, the reason I was relaxed was because of my faith in Galsaryang. If he can lead the Murim Alliance without me, he will be able to select a great next leader.
“Master, we are all left behind. Kangho’s great-grandfather passed away. “We should have a drink to express our condolences.”
Yes, but you are the only one.
“Okay, order the most expensive drink.”
“Do you have money?”
“You can buy me a drink to commemorate becoming a strongman.”
“If you say that, I can’t not live without it… … How weak you are. great! “Let me buy you a drink.”
Gwangdu looked at the owner and shouted.
“Here, give me a drink!” “Cheap and delicious!”
I smiled while looking at Gwangdu.
thanks.
Please sprinkle at least one drink on my death.
I slowly turned my head and looked out the window. It was heading towards the Murim Alliance somewhere in the distance.
Galgunsa, we must select a good leader.
