Words from my death (3)
I stopped by the guesthouse the next day as well.
I was wondering if there would be any new news.
Is it because you still have regrets about being the leader? Of course not.
I had adapted to this new life and was satisfied. Rather, he is living with greater joy and vitality than when he lived as a leader.
I was determined to live like this, building up the Byeok clan and developing my martial arts skills.
However, when I think of the Murim Alliance, there are still faces that come to mind. My subordinates who followed me loyally, including Galsaryang and Baekpyo.
At least it seemed like I would be worried until someone trustworthy took over as the next leader.
Today too, my story was the main topic at the guesthouse.
There were people who criticized me for political reasons. But no one criticized me as a warrior. In martial arts, the martial artist Cheon Ha-jin was always glorified.
“I don’t know how he is as a leader, but I think Cheon Ha-jin is a person who deserves respect as a warrior.”
Everyone’s eyes turned to the old man who spoke.
“I am the one who saw the leader’s fight firsthand.”
At those words, everyone gathered around the old man. Even I listened to the old man.
“You know the fight between the Heavenly Lord and the Demon Demon, right?”
“You know. “Wasn’t it later made into several stories?”
“It did. “But most of them are idiots.”
“How do you know?”
“That’s because I was there too.”
I laughed inwardly.
To conclude, what the old man said is bluff.
No one survived the fight that day. Not only Tuma but all his subordinates died. Our drones were waiting from afar, following my orders.
Couldn’t the old man have watched from afar? At that time, I was really flying through the sky. If I was at a distance where I could watch the fight, there was no way it wouldn’t have caught my senses.
“Tuma looks scary. He was nine feet tall and his fist was as big as an adult’s head. He was born to fight. “He was really crazy strong.”
Tuma is nine inches tall and his fists are as big as his head?
I stopped laughing.
When I first saw Tuma, I was amazed.
He was five feet tall and had a very small build. He was handsome and not suited to fighting at all.
Although Tuma may seem like he was swinging his fists wildly, Tuma was a person who used only a dagger.
But not everything the old man said was bluff.
The fact that he was insanely strong was true. At the time I fought him, he was the strongest enemy I’ve ever met.
Of course, I met people stronger than him later, but he was one of the top five enemies I faced.
I don’t know how many times I almost died with that short dagger. I actually got stabbed in a few places. He was worthy of the name Tuma.
“Merchant Cheon has shown skills that are truly divine. When I close my eyes, I still vividly remember that fight. Especially the last moment is truly unforgettable. The leader flew into the sky while dodging the strong energy that spewed out from the guy’s fist. “What a majestic sight, flying like a blue dragon and sprinkling dozens of strands of sword steel like rain!”
Everyone was moved by the vivid description of the old man.
“envious. “If I had seen that fight in person, I would have no wish even if I died.”
“I want to buy those eyes!”
“ah! Sword God!”
It’s a very shameful thing to say when I think of the day I rolled around in the dirt with Tuma and managed to drive the sword into the guy’s heart, but I’m also human, so I didn’t hate hearing stories like that.
At that time, one of the men who was listening to the story opened his mouth with a dissatisfied expression.
“What do you do if you’re a swordsman?”
“What are you dissatisfied with?”
“Didn’t you hear the rumor?”
“What rumor?”
“It’s a rumor that Cheon Ha-jin made a huge illicit fortune.”
“Is that really true?”
Everyone was surprised.
Of course, are you as surprised as I am?
I almost jumped up and screamed, ‘f*ck that bullshit!’ Not a single penny was embezzled for personal use.
“He was so strong in martial arts, wouldn’t he have done it?”
Judging by the way he said it, it wasn’t a rumor, it was just my own idea.
Why not?
shit. I wish someone would scold those irresponsible words, but everyone nodded and agreed with the idea.
“but. When you become a leader… … .”
“Moreover, Lord Cheon had the strongest martial arts among all the Lords of all time, right?”
“I would have died without even being able to spend all that money.”
I could tolerate other gossip. But what about illegal wealth?
No, you bastards! If only I had made up my mind to do it… … So let’s not really do this.
“How much did you eat? Ten million nyang? One hundred million nyang?”
A sigh came out of my mouth.
I thought I was in love with Kang-ho… … I don’t know if Kang-ho knows that I like him or not.
Just as I was sitting there with such a despairing heart, I heard a clear and pure voice.
“Do you have any proof?”
It was a voice I knew.
Everyone, including me, turned our heads towards the source of the sound.
Surprisingly, the person standing at the entrance to the guest house was Song Hwarin.
She showed off her special skills.

He suppressed everything around him and made only himself visible.
Everyone’s eyes widened at her appearance.
Some people recognized her, but the man who spread the rumor did not recognize her. She just had an expression like, ‘Why are there so many pretty women?’
“Is there any evidence that the leader committed corruption?”
The man answered her question.
“Are you by any chance acquainted with the Heavenly Lord?”
“no.”
“What are you dissatisfied with?”
“What I’m saying is, don’t say things you don’t even know.”
She was calm but dignified.
“I ask again. Do you have any evidence that Lord Maeng made illegal gains?”
“it’s me… … “I just heard rumors.”
“Spreading rumors carelessly is also a clear crime. “If you report it to the Murim Alliance, you could end up in prison.”
The man was frightened by her clear words. By the time the word prison was mentioned, it was already over.
“I would like to apologize for speaking carelessly.”
Without questioning the man any further, Song Hwa-rin walked over and sat down next to him.
“Take your order here.”
Jeomsoy ran to her.
The drunk people who had been staring at her in fascination for a moment dispersed. I thought that if I caught her eye for no reason, she might get in trouble.
But as I left, I looked back without fail.
I was sitting with my back to her, so she didn’t notice I was there.
I was thankful for her. It was so unfair, but I was so grateful that it felt like my feelings were being expressed.
After a while, the food was served to her.
“I only ordered noodles?”
In addition to the noodles she ordered, there was one more meat dish.
Then the owner of the inn smiled and said.
“This is a special bonus from me.”
“Why are you doing me a favor?”
“I also have the same thoughts as Sozer. The deceased Lord Maeng was a great person. Thanks to Lord Maeng, many of the evildoers of Gangho have disappeared. So life has become better for people like us.”
“Oh, I see. But what should I do?”
Words that were completely unexpected came out of her mouth.
“I think you must have misunderstood something, but I don’t really like the deceased leader.”
“yes?”
The owner widened his eyes.
What kind of nonsense is this?
I also looked at her in bewilderment.
The owner asked again.
“But why a little while ago?”
“I just don’t like talking about other people’s opinions carelessly.”
Now that I think about it, there was nothing in what she said earlier that she liked or respected the leader.
She went one step further.
“On the contrary, I really hate dead leaders.”
At those words, I blurted out a word without realizing it.
“why?”
She turned her head towards me. She was surprised that I was there.
“Since when has it been there?”
“From earlier.”
“Are you following me by any chance?”
I shook the empty liquor bottle in front of me.
“I might have if I had known you were coming here.”
She understood that I was there first.
“I heard about the sheep fire department.”
“Luckily I was able to avoid trouble.”
“thank god.”
After that conversation, she turned her head.
I didn’t really want to continue the conversation either, but I had to ask this.
“But why do you hate the leader?”
I was genuinely curious.
She just shrugged her shoulder once and didn’t answer.
Hey, why on earth do you hate me?
