Absolute Regression - Chapter 100

Episode 100 Kang-ho never sleeps.

The carriage continued to run towards somewhere.

I was wondering. Where will Extreme Soma go first?

I know the big events that occurred after he left school this time, but I don’t know the details of where he goes first and who he meets.

There must have been someone who upset him over the past two years. Are you going to kill someone?

Or should we rent an entire roof and hold a wild banquet?

Maybe he will kill someone and go to Giru.

At that time, Extreme Soma suddenly asked.

“Why did that escort become a heart?”

He was someone who I didn’t think would ask questions about escorts, but I was interested because he was someone I liked.

“My guard was alive, so I made him my heart.”

“Then is Gongja Lee dead now?”

I asked, looking at him intently.

“Are we alive?”

I smiled and added to Extreme Soma, who was momentarily confused as to what to say.

“It’s pretty too.”

“You have very unique tastes.”

“In my eyes, she is the prettiest.”

“Before we return to school, I think we should improve our engineering students’ perspective on women.”

“Maybe I can show you.”

I wish Seo Dae-ryong was here.

Did you ever imagine that you would be talking about the eyes of a woman with Seo Inspector Geukak Soma? This is what the future will be like.

At that time, Cheongmyeon’s voice was heard from the coach seat.

“I will go and eat in the village.”

From the first day of our journey, we ate separately.

Sometimes it was done in a different guest room, and sometimes the evil soma took a separate room and ate it.

Today too, as Ian and I naturally finished eating together and came out of the inn, we saw some black thugs behaving abusively towards a merchant at the end of the street.

I just turned around and walked towards the carriage, pretending not to see it, but someone spoke from behind me.

“You just pretend you didn’t see me.”

It was a very evil Soma who had just finished eating at a guesthouse across the street.

“Was it just a show-off to become the successor?”

I said, laughing at his mockery.

“I have a bit of a pretentious side.”

“I like it very much. People should be like this. “Pretending to be nice gives me a headache.”

We looked at each other and laughed.

Extreme Soma asked as he walked towards the carriage.

“Why does Duke Lee hate evil so much?”

“I just passed by and pretended not to see the evil.”

“If you mess with one or two people and leave, aren’t you just leaving because they will eventually retaliate against you?”

He read my thoughts exactly. If you want to touch it, you have to completely uproot it. I couldn’t afford to do that right now.

“This trip is about seeing Soma’s world.”

“It makes me sad to think that people like that are my world.”

“You misunderstand.”

“Then let’s clear up the misunderstanding.”

He gave Cheongmyeon a command with a glance. Then Cheongmyeon walked towards the Heukdo guys with long strides.

Since you heard our conversation earlier, we will clean up the leaders of these people and come back. Of course, it won’t be long before a new black island appears.

I motioned for Ian to come with me and she moved quickly.

“I will go with you too.”

Ian followed behind Cheongmyeon.

Extreme Soma jumped up and sat on the roof of the carriage.

“It would be perfect to see it from here.”

I flew over to his side and sat down next to him.

“Did you enjoy your meal?”

“I barely ate it.”

“As I was traveling, I noticed that you don’t eat well.”

“I don’t enjoy eating.”

“Is it because of the mask?”

A slightly unpleasant look crossed my mind. Because the story about the mask always shocked him. But I brought up the story without hesitation.

To take that off, you have to bring down the mask that has become a myth into reality.

“I didn’t like eating from the beginning.”

“It might be because of the mask. “When you take off your mask, I will treat you to an amazing meal.”

Extreme Soma tilted his head for the first time. I read these emotions in the eyes in the eye sockets.

What on earth are you? What is it about you that you get on my nerves like this?

At that time, a scream was heard from afar.

Our eyes naturally turned to Ian and Cheongmyeon in the distance.

After beating up the black swordsmen, the two men were leading them and leading them somewhere.

Looking at that scene, Extreme Soma said.

“Gongja Lee said this before, right? The only time evil is cool is when it subdues other evil. How is it? “Am I cool now?”

“It’s awesome.”

“But why don’t I feel good?”

“I guess it’s because it feels like my flesh is being torn off.”

Extreme Soma laughed at my joke. He again asked the question he had asked earlier.

“Why do you hate evil so much?”

Since you asked me twice, I guess I should answer something. I said to him after a while.

“There are people who go out of their way to push the person in front of them off a cliff while walking down the street. If you want to go first, just walk fast and pass by. They don’t tell you to help someone who falls down from exhaustion while walking. I can just go my own way, so why bother? When I see people like that, I want to push them too. So I’m going to push it all away.”

“Then I guess I’ll want to push too.”

The two eyes in the eye sockets are shining coldly.

Soma How many people have you pushed into misfortune in your life so far?

I smiled and told him.

“So please don’t walk in front of me.”

“Then you have to stand behind Lee Gongja?”

“Then let’s walk side by side. “I don’t think it’s a bad thing to walk with the tension that each other can push each other at any time.”

This is the relationship I want with him.

Extreme Soma laughed loudly.

“great. “If you are a scientist, you can be a good companion.”

After a while, Ian and Cheongmyeon, who had finished organizing everything, returned to the carriage with a faint scent of blood in the air.

Ian’s eyes trembled slightly as he looked up at us standing side by side on the roof of the carriage. No matter how much you believe in me, it will not be easy to completely shake off the fear of the existence of Extreme Soma.

The carriage started again.

After several days of driving, the carriage arrived at a manor.

There was a man waiting in the yard.

I put on the white mask I wore around my waist and followed the Extreme Soma down. First, you can show your face while watching the situation unfold.

“It’s been a while, Majon.”

Extreme Soma nodded with a cold look in his eyes.

I remembered who the man was.

Gwiju’s rejected Imho (林湖).

Originally, this place in Gwiju was the area under the control of Extreme Evil Soma.

Palmajons were in charge of each region and were responsible for business, and they intervened in all kinds of interests, such as merchants, pyoguk, cheolbang, Giru, and bars, or ran them directly. Right now, Hyeolcheon Doma seems to be leisurely reading a book, but he also has an area he is responsible for.

Im Ho was the head of the Daeho Sangdan (大湖商團) representing Gwiju and a person who actively supported Geukak Soma.

“You seem to have lost some weight.”

Imho bowed at the blunt remark.

“I’ve lost some weight recently. “Thank you so much for looking into it.”

Extreme Soma tapped his shoulder once as if encouraging him.

“thank you.”

Imho was both scared and regretful.

At that time, Ian sent me a message.

―Did you see the tap on the shoulder just now? Not slapping someone in the face or breaking their shoulder? I thought it was someone else.

―If Extreme Soma had been nothing more than a crazy assassin as rumored, he wouldn’t have been part of the Palmazon. Take a close look at how Extreme Soma treats and treats people. Whether it’s something to learn or a teacher, it will definitely be helpful to you as you run the academy in the future.

-Yes, master.

There are many faces under that mask. There will be faces I’ve seen before, and there will also be new faces that appear when I meet the person I am now.

Imho asked Extreme Soma.

“Would you like to eat first?”

“are you okay. Let’s look at the sober drinkers first.”

“Yes, then please come this way.”

Imho never asked anything about me.

Since we got off the carriage together, I guessed that he was not an ordinary retainer, but I did not dare to ask him to introduce who he was. Just by looking at that alone, you could tell how much Imho was afraid of the evil Soma.

Of course, this does not mean that Imho is a courageous or timid person. He is the one who runs the business in cooperation with the Demonic Cult. Among merchants, he may be the worst Soma.

Imho guided us to the main hall.

There were about twenty people waiting inside, and they were all people who ran large and small merchants here in Gwiju.

When the evil soma entered, they all fell down and bowed.

“I meet the great Majon.”

Extreme Soma sat at the head table.

Then, one of the top lords who was lying down got up and went in front of Extreme Soma.

He politely presented the ledger he brought to Geukaksoma. It seems to be a ritual that has always been performed when Soma visits.

Extreme Soma slowly flipped through the ledger.

Ian, who was watching this, sent a message again.

―I didn’t know that Extreme Soma could read the ledger.

-I don’t know how to see.

-yes?

―Cheongmyeon standing behind is telling the story through audio. He is the smartest and brightest person in the music world. That’s also why I have him as my right-hand man.

-Oh, I see.

Extreme Soma not only asked about the ledgers, but he also knew the personal history of the merchant owners. He also said he was sorry for not being able to attend his son’s wedding, and also mourned with sadness for the person who was bereaved.

―Cheongmyeon tells you all about these things.

―No, this is because Extreme Soma remembers everything that was reported.

-really? Are you saying that because you remember it all? Is it Extreme Soma?

There was one thing I realized in my past life.

Real villains are meticulous.

I can’t generalize, but the big villains I experienced were meticulous. He had good observation skills and a good memory.

On the other hand, the political faction leaders I met were not meticulous. I also forgot easily. They thought it was a natural carelessness that comes from attaching importance to a cause, but I thought I had already been pushed out by the evildoers. A vague justification cannot beat the meticulousness of counting with one’s fingers.

Meanwhile, Extreme Soma finished a short interview with each merchant owner.

Although the merchants were afraid of the evil Soma, they were thrilled that they remembered and mentioned their daily lives.

―This short meeting that we have every year will keep those people from moving for ten or twenty years. Extreme Evil Soma smiled and asked how his family was doing, so how could he dare to betray him?

-It’s scary.

-Yes, this is the scary part.

After greeting the merchants, Lim Ho came forward as the representative and reported.

“As you can see, our income has decreased significantly over the past two years. The reason is because of the Baekgye Sangdan (百戒商團).”

Baekgye Merchant Marine, a new merchant in Gwiju, grew faster than any other merchant. Behind this, there was active support from the Apostolic Alliance.

This incident began because of an incident in which a very evil Soma massacred a group of warriors from the Sadomaeng.

The Church of the Heavenly Demon did not officially apologize or compensate the Apostolic Association for that matter. Instead, he appeased the Apostolic Alliance by banning the extremely evil Soma.

But the Apostolic Association thought that was not enough.

As punishment, Sadomaeng created a Baekgye Sangdan in the territory of the extremely evil Soma and was stealing his income as if he were proud of it.

As Extreme Soma, who is being punished by the Heavenly Demon, cannot fight, he has no choice but to watch them grow their territory over the past two years. Meanwhile, dissatisfaction at the top of the organization continued to grow.

As if he was already well aware of the issue of the Hundred Worlds, Extreme Evil Soma did not mention it separately.

“Now you can move on your own, so don’t worry too much.”

Only then did the faces of the merchant owners brighten and show happy expressions.

With those words, Extreme Soma ended the meeting. He was a person who knew better than anyone else that such meetings were targets for enemies. Meetings are secret and brief.

Geukaksoma got on the carriage and said to Cheongmyeon.

“I’m going to Baekgye Sangdan.”

“yes!”

The carriage started running.

I hinted to Extreme Soma.

“He was kind to the merchant owners. “I thought it was a friendly soma, not an extremely evil soma.”

“Aren’t they the ones who make me money? “Why do you treat people so coldly when they can make you much more money if you just say nice things?”

This is a comparison with the black thugs who previously stole money from merchants and committed misdeeds. The real evil people are these people. Smiling and squeezing the opponent, making them continue to be bullied in a good mood.

“I got the name wrong. Isn’t that the case with one punishment and one punishment? “I plan to go to the Baekgye Sangdan and show them why I have been given the nickname of extreme evil.”

When I got no response, he spoke again.

“Aren’t you worried? Do you think I can’t kill them all? The ban has just been lifted. Are they really going to kill me? “Is that what you think?”

“no. I feel that Soma is very angry right now. “The air inside the carriage is already different.”

“But why aren’t you stopping me? “If an accident occurs at Baekgye Sangdan, the engineer should be held responsible, right?”

“Soma, please stop the carriage. “Let go of your anger and go somewhere else.”

“I don’t like it.”

“I knew it would be like this. So I kept thinking about it. “How should I stop it?”

“You will have to worry a lot.”

With those words, Extreme Soma leaned against the carriage and closed his eyes.

I sighed for him to hear, but my eyes were extremely calm as I looked out of the carriage. The night was deep, but Kang-ho was not sleeping.
