Absolute Regression - Chapter 207

I would like to respond to the 207th courtesy.

When I entered Extreme Soma’s room, I saw a wall with a long line drawn on it.

Extreme Soma was facing the opposite wall with his back to the line.

“I definitely like the color of the walls here better.”

Extreme Soma looked at me at my joke. My gaze met his pupils in the eye sockets. I never thought I would see the feeling of joy in those eye sockets.

I communicated with Extreme Soma only through the look in his eye sockets, but I had a deeper connection with him than with anyone else.

“The mask has changed.”

“As expected, you recognize a scientist right away.”

The reason for the change was unexpected.

“Cheongmyeon has made several masks. He gave it to me and said, Now I want to live a new life. “I’m going to my pretty heart.”

Finally, Cheongmyeon accepted the position of Gwiyeongdae Iljojang.

“So you cut off Cheongmyeon’s arm?”

He had once said that he would not let Cheongmyeon go unless he cut off his arm.

“I didn’t cut it.”

“why?”

“Didn’t you ask me to tell you before cutting? “But because Master Lee was on a mission to teach, I couldn’t cut him.”

How could that be? He let Cheongmyeon live the life he wanted.

Well done Soma. If things had continued like this, Cheongmyeon would not have been able to ascend to Majon and would have lived an unhappy life until he grew old.

“You’re wonderful.”

“Do you really think so?”

“yes. “You are truly wonderful.”

“After hearing such a compliment, I guess I won’t be able to cut off my arm again.”

The two eyes in the eye sockets were smiling. At least in his relationship with me, he is not an evil person, but a small person.

“I heard that you and Kwon Ma were excommunicated.”

“I went out to play pranks, but came back as a disciple of Gwonma.”

Hearing that he had become Gwonma’s disciple, Geukaksoma suddenly stood up.

“You must be a better fighter now!”

Extreme Soma had no interest in whether my master was Kwonma or not. I was excited that I had become stronger.

“Yes, I have become a little stronger!”

For me, the people I feel most comfortable saying this to are extremely evil people. Just as my father and I used to hang out together when I was young, so was my relationship with the evil soma.

“Soma-sama, I have a favor to ask.”

I was trembling inside. How will Extreme Soma accept my request?

“I want to kill Sadomaeng Yayulhan. To do this, you need your father’s permission. Please convince my father.”

Extreme Soma answered without hesitation.

“Of course.”

He didn’t ask anything. Why should I kill him and how should I kill him?

My heart was touched by the attitude that no matter what request I had made, he would have just listened to it.

There is only one person in this world who listens because it is just my request.

I was happy. It was the first time I felt such pure joy in a long time. I was so happy that I felt the urge to jump up and down.

“thank you so much.”

Even though I understood the rejection of the other mazons, I think I was saddened in a corner of my heart. Seeing you feel so good.

I didn’t know you would accept it so easily.

I was about to say that but stopped. For some reason, I felt like no words could express my gratitude to him.

Instead, I expressed my gratitude in a different way.

“If permission is given for this matter, please help me then.”

Somaya, let’s go. Come and have a great fight with me again. That’s all I can do. And… thank you so much.

Extreme Soma smiled cheerfully, looking at my passionate gaze.

“great.”

And the more dangerous our fight, the more it will make his blood boil.

“Who approved now?”

“Soma-sama is the only one who said for sure that he would persuade my father.”

“Am I number one?”

“That’s right. Soma is the first.”

Because Hyeolcheon Doma and Gwonma had not yet directly said that they would persuade him. Of course, Hyeolcheon Doma will step forward. Gwonma will also come forward. There are three Amazons that will definitely help you now.

“It feels good for no reason.”

“Thank you for being my first.”

I looked at the straight line on the opposite wall. Soma’s eyes followed me.

I want that wall to last a long time.

I didn’t even say this. Even if he doesn’t say it, he probably feels the same way.

Later, when I become Cheonma, I plan to remove that wall and hang it in Cheonmajeon.

* * *

When I went to find Gwonma, he was standing at the bottom of a cliff.

I stood next to him.

Did this cliff begin to look different in his eyes after returning from his trip?

“Geokaksoma said he would step up for me.”

Then the horse looked at me with a surprised face.

“Soma that person?”

It seems unexpected that Kwonma is not someone else, but a very evil Soma.

“Are you two close friends?”

“We’re close.”

“He’s not an easy person to get to know.”

“If you think about it that way, how easy is it for you, Master?”

I continued, looking up at the cliff.

“He is trying to collapse this cliff with one blow.”

The horse’s gaze followed me toward the cliff. The wall we see now was not this cliff. It was a higher and stronger wall than this.

“The leader will not allow this. Saving those young people may be important to you, but it is not important to the cult leader at all. To be honest, I am the same way. “The same goes for other mazons.”

I understand the Father and the Magons. Because they were originally like that. The way they look now has changed so much that you could almost say they are different people.

Nevertheless, the reason I am working so hard for change is because I believe that only if we change, martial arts will change and our destiny will change. If we just pass it by like in the past life.

Because he’s not important to me. Because it has nothing to do with me. If I live a life where everything passes by like I did before returning… I feel like I will be swept away again by the fire weapon that appears as if it were fate.

Master, just as you cannot bring down this cliff unless you change.

“As we talked about in the snowy mountains, the leader is dreaming of unifying the martial arts. If you kill Yayulhan, there will be a change in the big picture drawn by the cult leader. There is no way the religious leader would give permission so easily.”

“Then we need to create even more variables. “I plan to stop my father’s martial arts unification.”

I was firm, and the horse stared at my stubbornness in silence.

“Can you convince my father? “Master.”

Gwonma was immersed in one last thought. Why wouldn’t Gwonma not want to clash with his father? No, because it’s a horse, that feeling is probably the biggest.

Finally, Gwonma nodded.

“Sure.”

“Thank you, Master.”

It’s like this. I made you my master. Because he’s a man who doesn’t back down even when things get hard.

I didn’t get an answer from Hyeolcheon Doma, but I won’t go back to check it again. Because I was sure he would help me.

And my conviction was correct. The first person to go to see his father was Hyeolcheondoma.

* * *

Hyeolcheondoma, who had walked the path of blood, stopped below Taesa.

“long time no see.”

In response to the courteous greeting from Hyeolcheondoma, Geomwoojin, the Heavenly Demon, spoke to him.

“Are you opening the first gun?”

Geom Woojin had already guessed why Hyeolcheondoma had come.

“What should I do? “If a young person wants to do something big, even an old person should help.”

“If a young guy wants to cause an accident, shouldn’t we, the older ones, stop him?”

“you’re right. When I think back to when we were young, we were really immature times. But if you think about it again, isn’t there a time when you were as passionate as you were then?”

“Are you lacking passion now?”

“If this burning trace is passion, then it is there.”

Although words were exchanged calmly, there was a tense atmosphere in Cheonmajeon.

Geom Woo-jin got up from Taesa Temple and slowly came down the stairs.

“Shall we take a walk?”

“great.”

Geom Woo-jin walked the bloody path with Hyeolcheon Doma and left the Heavenly Demon Hall. The two walked together in the front yard of Cheonmajeon.

“He asked me for a favor over there in the middle of the grand banquet hall. Please allow me to kill Yayulhan. “It wasn’t a request, it was a declaration.”

Hyeolcheondoma asked in a somewhat relaxed tone.

“What kind of child is this?”

A smile that was never seen in Geommugeuk appeared on Geom Woojin’s lips.

“You have to go through this too. “It’s a shame.”

“This is the only part where I am happier than the leader. “Don’t even say things like that.”

There was a time when the two had a more comfortable conversation than this. If I had known that time would pass by so quickly, I would have spent more time with the leader. Hyeolcheon Doma felt regretful once again. What on earth did you spend all that time doing?

“I don’t know about the other Mazons, but I didn’t know you would fall for this guy like this. “What on earth did you like so much that you passed on like this?”

“I’ve thought about that many times, but I have nothing to say except this. “Your son has a strange charm.”

“It’s a strange charm.”

This time, Hyeolcheondoma spoke.

“Didn’t you feel it? “I think the leader felt it too.”

“I called it a cheap sentiment that is just right to die for.”

Geom Woo-jin did not even say that the expression ‘cheap emotion’ had changed to ‘naive emotion’.

“I fell in love with that cheap sentiment.”

A faint smile appeared on the corner of Hyecheon Doma’s mouth. Although it was a sensitive and important matter, it felt good to have this conversation after a long time.

“Master, please just lose once.”

Geom Woojin shook his head resolutely at the insinuated words.

“In the future, when Bisain ascends to the position of leader of the Apostles, Yayulhan will forever be a source of trouble for the Apostles. It is possible to deal with Yayulhan before the current Apostle Lord dies. “There’s no reason for us to get rid of it.”

“Instead, Bisain will benefit greatly from Lee Gongja through this incident. “There is something to be gained as much as something to be lost.”

“The Safa people only hold grudges for a long time and are not a people who remember grace.”

“But Mr. Lee will remember. “My father made great concessions for me.”

Geom Woojin turned his back and looked at the interior of the Heavenly Demon Church in silence. Hyeolcheon Doma did not push further. At this point, he said everything he wanted to say.

At that time, a person appeared there.

He was none other than the fighting horse who was coming to Cheonmajeon.

“Are you planning to start a wheeled war?”

Hyeolcheon Doma laughed and responded to Geom Woojin’s joke.

“I wonder why that big fist fell over.”

Meanwhile, the horse came up in front of them.

“Have you been at peace so far?”

Gwonma politely greeted Geom Woojin and then also greeted Hyeolcheon Doma.

“You came first.”

“I thought Gwonma would come too. “Congratulations on having a true scholar as your disciple.”

Then Geom Woojin intervened.

“Is that something to celebrate? “It’s something to comfort.”

Gwonmaga Geom Woojin’s gaze was caught in the air. It was a look in their eyes filled with deep trust that only two people could feel. That’s why it was difficult for Gwonma to be in this position. Fortunately, there was a blood chopping board, so the atmosphere did not become serious.

“I have a rough idea of why you came, so let’s work together.”

“I don’t know if merging together is a wise choice. “Because he becomes stronger the stronger his opponent is.”

Who knows that! Geom Woo-jin asked Gwon-ma with that expression.

“Why did you fall for that guy?”

“I guess I’ve lost my mind because I’ve been playing pranks that I haven’t played in my entire life.”

Geom Woojin was not satisfied with the answer.

“Tell me the real reason.”

Kwon Ma thought for a moment and then revealed his honest feelings. It was an unexpected answer.

“I guess I’ve been lonely all this time.”

“!”

Both Geom Woojin and Hyeolcheon Doma were surprised. I really didn’t know that the words ‘lonely’ would come out of the horse’s mouth.

“I made a bet on a light ball at the end. It was so fast that I couldn’t keep up with it. Do you know what I thought as I trudged along alone? I was bored. “For the first time in my life, I felt bored.”

Gwonma added while looking at Geom Woojin.

“I guess that’s why I passed on it.”

Gwonma and Geom Woojin’s gazes became intertwined in the air. Kwon Ma carefully said what he had been thinking the entire time he came here.

“He is my first student, and I came here to be rude because I wanted to be helpful as a master. “I’m sorry, teacher.”

Gwonma bowed politely and apologized. Because his loyalty to the Heavenly Demon was incomparable to that of any other Mazon, Geom Woojin did not reprimand him at all.

At that time, Geom Woo-jin’s gaze went over Gwon Ma’s shoulder.

“No matter how I understand you two, I don’t understand that person at all.”

A person walked there. Wearing a white mask, he was a very evil Soma.

After the extremely evil Soma politely greeted the Heavenly Demon, he also exchanged greetings with the Blood Heavenly Demon and the Gwon Demon.

And then he said something unexpected.

“I was the first one, but you two cut me off.”

I didn’t even understand why he came out and made this joke?

Hyeolcheon Doma spoke on behalf of the feelings of the three people who were there first.

“It seems like everyone goes crazy when they get involved with Lee Gongja.”

Geom Woojin asked Extreme Soma.

“What on earth is wrong with you?”

The moment he was asked that question, Extreme Soma recalled the moment when he held up his falling mask. That was the end of it.

If someone else had asked, he wouldn’t have answered, but since it was Geom Woojin’s question, Extreme Soma answered like this.

“Gongja Lee is a person who knows courtesy.”

At those words, not only Geom Woojin but also Hyeolcheon Doma and Gwonma were surprised. The word politeness comes out of the mouth of a very evil soma? Since when did Extreme Soma care about manners?

The three could feel it. The manners that Geuk-ak spoke about are not general manners but contain a more fundamental meaning. It’s about being polite to people.

“I would like to respond to the courtesy that Duke Lee showed me.”

Extreme Soma turned back and took off his mask. Then, after putting on the new mask he had brought in his arms, he slowly turned around.

It was not the pure white mask I had been wearing until now. It was a creepy mask with a smiling evil spirit on it. The red-painted eyes were slit long like a ghost, and the red-hot mouth was smiling all the way up to the ears. This mask was the immortal mask worn by the evil soma when going to war.

“Please listen to Gongja Lee’s request.”

Extreme Soma came here with the mindset of going to war. He was prepared to face the wrath of the Heavenly Demon and was willing to go out of sight. He was prepared to die and came here today.

The eyes under the mask were shining more intensely than ever before, as if this was what had to be done to persuade the religious leader.

“This is my first and last request.”
