Absolute Regression - Chapter 294
Episode 294 Why didn’t you buy my doll?
Geom Woo-jin raised his head, looked at Deok-chul carefully, and checked the address written on the paper.
“It’s my house.”
“Oh, I’ve come to the right place.”
Deokchul smiled and sat down in front of him. He became the first ordinary person to meet the Heavenly Demon alone, but he did not know how great this moment was.
“Your son is a sword dancer, right?”
From now on, Deokchul’s mission was this. I have to coax and coax him with good words to confirm that I am the child’s parent and get him to sign as a guarantor.
“My son borrowed money. So, your father will have to provide a guarantee.”
For a moment, there was silence in the bar. Jo Chun-bae, the guests on the first floor, and the guards hiding around were all sharing this amazing moment of history.
The next moment, Geom Woojin laughed loudly.
Cho Chun-bae, who was downstairs, was surprised. Today was the first time I saw the leader smile.
It had been a long time since even Hwi, the water guard who was in hiding, saw Cheonma smiling so cheerfully.
Geom Woojin said with a smile still on his face.
“I have never had a child who had to guarantee his father’s debt.”
As if he had expected such a reaction, Deokchul got up from his seat and quietly went and sat down next to Geom Woojin.
Jo Chun-bae, who was watching, clenched his fists in surprise. Other guests were also excited about what would happen next.
Please don’t let the fallen neck roll to the first floor!
Everyone knew, but I didn’t know. You realize how dangerous you are right now.
Deokchul poured alcohol for Geom Woojin and comforted him.
“Everyone says that. But what can you do? “He’s like my enemy, but I still have to pay him back.”
The good news is that he didn’t pat Geom Woojin on the shoulder.
Don’t touch your body!
Cho Chun-bae desperately hoped.
“I’ll be honest with you. If your son can’t pay the money, people will come to your father. “People who collect money are scary people, so you have to be careful.”
Geom Woojin seemed to enjoy this situation, which was his first time in his life.
“You don’t have to worry about me.”
“Then please read this first. Just read it slowly and sign.”
After putting down the document in front of Geom Woojin, Deokchul stood up as if to give him some time to read it.
“uh?”
The words written on the wall caught his eye. It was a wall where the Magons had left their writings and signatures.
“A lot of famous people have visited.”
In the traces of the Golden Great Lama Ball left behind by Mabul, the writings of Hyeolcheon Doma were also left next to it.
Having a drink with a Hyeolcheon disciple.
“Oooh! “I also left behind a cutting board!”
He looked down at the Hyeolcheondoma doll on his waist. Today, I saw the face in person and even bought the doll, so I felt a sense of intimacy, as if someone I knew had left a message.
Then a signature caught his eye. The handwriting is more powerful than any other writing here.
Heavenly Demon Geom Woojin.
Deokchul was startled and jumped up.
“Oh oh! I also visited Ma Gyoju here. Wow! “Have you seen this?”
Deokchul looked around.
The people on the first floor were looking at them with anxious eyes. When was the last time you got this much attention from people? Deokchul was nervous for no reason and felt good.
“It looks like the master here has good skills.”
After speaking loudly below, he added so that only Geom Woojin could hear.
“but. “Usually good restaurants are these shabby places, right?”
Then he spoke loudly again to Cho Chun-bae on the first floor.
“The house that Master Ma visited! You can change the name of this tavern to the tavern that Cheonma visited. “If it were me, I would change it right away!”
Jo Chun-bae, please stop! He shook his head with an expression like this.
Then Deokchul was startled and looked back at the wall where the writing was written.
“uh? Come to think of it, the name of the Demon Cultist is also Geom Woojin.”
Deokchul looked at Geom Woojin once and then at the wall again.
Cho Chun-bae as well as the people on the first floor were looking forward to it.
You finally find out who the other person is! Hurry up and say you’re wrong!
I thought Deokchul was staring at Geom Woojin.
“It must be inconvenient for you to have the same name as the Demon Cultist.”
A silent sigh spread like a wave from the first floor.
Deokchul had no idea that the person in front of him was a thousand miles away.
“Now, please sign. You have to do it anyway. “Are there any parents whose children can win?”
“There is no son like that.”
“If you don’t do it, your son will be taken away by scary people.”
“For that to happen, you’d have to be scarier than the people on the wall.”
Of course, Deokchul took it as a joke. The scariest people in the world are all over there, and the scarier ones can only be seen when they are dead.
“I understand. Right. Even though I raise my children, they all think that I am the only one who grows up. Now, grab this brush. You can sign here. If I had to go through the same thing when I had a child, I would think, “Oh, this is how my parents must have felt.” “Don’t worry, just write your name.”
Then Geom Woo-jin pretended not to be able to win and signed the document.
“Well done, this is all for your son.”
Deokchul, who was looking down at the documents, was startled again.
Cho Chun-bae and the guests on the first floor looked forward to it again.
Yes, compare it to the writing on the wall! Turn your head! please!
Did everyone’s wishes come true? Deokchul slowly turned around and looked at the wall.
He opened his eyes wide. I thought I was finally discovering the existence of the Heavenly Demon.
“Not only is the name the same, but the handwriting is also the same! “This is amazing!”
The word ‘Oh my gosh’ came out of Cho Chun-bae’s mouth. The customer sitting next to me lost strength in his hands and dropped the chopsticks he was holding, and the customer sitting next to him shook his head, sighed, and spilled his drink.
“Isn’t it true that even their faces resemble each other?”
In Deokchul’s mind, the fact that he would meet Cheonma in a place like this did not exist.
“be careful. “If this continues, it will be easy for people to misunderstand that I am impersonating the Heavenly Demon.”
Just then, someone entered the bar.
Everyone on the first floor stopped breathing at his appearance.
A man walked with long strides and came up to this floor.
Deokchul unconsciously looked at the other person and nodded happily. I thought it was someone I knew, but I was startled and let out a loud scream. It was someone I knew. Because the person who came up was Gwonma.
Gwon Ma remembered seeing Deokchul under the main altar wall earlier. That’s why Gwonma’s eyes looked exactly like this.
Why do you keep catching my eye?
Cho Chun-bae and the guests who were watching were once again overcome with tension. Now the risk has doubled.
Gwonma greeted Geom Woojin politely.
“I heard you were here so I came to see you. “I just returned.”
“Did you have a good trip?”
“Yes, master.”
Deokchul blurted out the word ‘sect leader’ without realizing it.
“He is not a religious leader, but someone who resembles him!”
Sighs erupted from the first floor again.
Geom Woojin laughed and Gwonma looked dumbfounded.
‘why?’
Deokchul’s expression, which had been blinking at the reactions of those around him, gradually changed. Come to think of it, there’s no way Gwonma wouldn’t even recognize the leader of the cult and would come to someone who looks like him and call him the leader, right?
The same goes for reactions from people who look similar to you. Did you have a good trip?
Why do you say that? Why? That’s because it’s not a lookalike, it’s real.
By the time Deokchul’s thoughts had progressed to that point, his face had already become reflective. He let out a soft moan and his whole body trembled like an aspen tree.
Gwonma asked Geom Woojin.
“Who is he?”
“I came to you to ask you to guarantee my son’s debt.”
Gwon Ma looked at Deokchul with an expression of bewilderment.
“no! Absolutely not! There was some mistake. Wrong! “Please save me!”
He lay face down. At this moment, when it was revealed that the opponent was the real Heavenly Demon, he saw four Mazones in one day and achieved a new record of seeing even the Heavenly Demon.
At that time, Geom Woojin suddenly asked.
“Why didn’t you buy my doll?”
The question was why I didn’t buy a Heavenly Demon Spirit doll since I didn’t have a Cyoju doll in the first place. It was truly the greatest suffering Deokchul had experienced today. Cho Chun-bae and the guests on the first floor became nervous again.
Even Gwonma joined in.
“What about my doll?”
Deokchul looked down at the Hyeolcheon cutting board and Mabul doll stuck to his waist. This large island and its golden brilliance were very visible.
‘ah! In conclusion, I should have bought the Heavenly Demon Spirit doll and the Demon Demon doll today!’
Will I die because of a momentary choice? I will never forget Goatbeard even if I die.
Deokchul didn’t know what to answer. In the end, he spoke in a depressed tone.
“I couldn’t buy the two dolls because I was too scared.”
His honest answer was a great choice. Geom Woojin laughed and Gwonma also laughed along. The reward that made the Heavenly Demon laugh heartily for the first time in a long time was unexpected.
Geom Woojin took out a piece of paper from his pocket and threw it away. It slowly flew across the air and fell into Deokchul’s hand.
Surprisingly, it was a 1,000-nyang voucher.
“When you go, buy a doll for me and a doll for my friend.”
Deokchul was so surprised that his eyes widened. Silent surprise spread even to the first floor.
“You don’t like it?”
“yes? no! I’ll buy it! “I’ll buy it right away.”
Deokchul, who had been lost in illusions all day today, accurately understood the other person’s intentions at this last moment.
“I will quit this job right now and go back to my hometown and live a good life! “I will use the money they gave me to buy land, farm, and live a life of filial piety to my parents.”
Deokchul, who gave the correct answer, flew into the sky. It wasn’t just his mind that was blown, his body really was.
When Geom Woo-jin held out his hand once, Deok-chul flew up and landed lightly on the first floor.
Exclamations erupted from the first floor. He received only sad sighs throughout today, but in the end, he became the envy of everyone.
Cho Chun-bae said with a kind smile.
“I need to get your signature too. “I think I should leave him as the luckiest person in the world.”
“Thank you so much for having me as your guest. “I will definitely come back someday!”
Deokchul, with tears in his eyes, politely greeted this floor and then left.
When I was young, I worked at a power station. At that time, he went on his first mission… He had a day that no one could believe.
Cho Chun-bae also looked up at this floor. Although Deokchul was rude several times, the religious leader showed mercy. Furthermore, it opened up a new life for him. Cho Chun-bae had sincere respect for the religious leader.
And more than anything, I was so happy that Cheonma laughed out loud today.
Jo Chun-bae wrote today’s date on the wall behind the cash register.
The day the teacher laughed out loud.
Today was an unforgettable day as I have been selling alcohol all my life. It was my first time feeling this good.
On this floor, the conversation between the two most manly people in the Heavenly Demon Church was continuing. Since Kwon Ma was the person Geom Woojin trusted the most, the conversation was comfortable and natural.
“You look happy.”
“Will I ever be in debt for the rest of my life?”
“When you stay with Mugeuk, you experience things you could never have imagined. “For example, having an unexpected adoptive daughter.”
Gwonma was the first to come to tell Cheonma this fact.
“I decided to adopt Ian, who was Mugeuk’s bodyguard, as my adopted daughter.”
Geom Woojin was not surprised by most things, but he was surprised by this news.
Geom Woojin filled Gwonma’s glass with alcohol.
“Congratulations.”
Gwonma emptied the drink he had received.
This time, Gwonma filled Geom Woojin’s cup.
“I gained a disciple and a daughter. “I have been blessed with many blessings.”
“I like my daughter more than my son. “I wish I could raise my son…”
Geom Woojin’s gaze was directed out the window in the distance.
Still, today I missed the son who was trying to guarantee his father’s debt… a little.
* * *
Geommugeuk locked himself in his room and focused only on practicing the secret arts of Sicheon.
Now, all training was done unconditionally in Sicheon Secret Technique. Of course, I was able to train for more time. The more time I gained, the more I was able to practice, and the more time I gained again.
While I was practicing like that, Jooyang from Tongjeonso, who lent me money, came to visit me.
“I’ve seen a lot of crazy people while doing this job, but this is the first time I’ve seen someone who wrote the name of the Demon Cultist as their father.”
As Deokchul left the power station, he reported the results of his first and final investigation as a crazy person who used the name of the Demon Cultist. Of course, there was no way Cheonma’s son would have used Yeomwangchae.
“How can you pretend to be an impersonator when you haven’t even met the Demon Cultist?”
“You may have been aiming for that, but we met.”
“My father?”
“I heard you were drinking in a shabby bar?”
This time, Geommugeuk laughed out loud. It was a laugh that was exactly similar to the laugh that Geom Woojin laughed at the Pungryu Bar.
“Why are you laughing?”
“I smiled because I thought of my father.”
The image of my father drinking alone at a pub came to mind. When I thought of my father carrying everything on his back, I missed him.
“Are you really going to come to your senses only if you were dragged into a demonic cult and had your skin peeled off and thrown into a salt shaker?”
“Do you have the courage to take me to the Demonic Cult?”
Zhou Yang’s eyes became fierce.
“You think of us as nothing more than a pair of sailors who play around with flames.”
“Then no?”
A cold sneer formed at the corner of Zhou Yang’s mouth.
‘I’ve been bored lately, but this interesting guy appears.’
Thoughts about how to punish this bastard filled her mind, but Jooyang did not show such feelings. Because the fun of politely guiding people to hell was the best.
“I told you who my father is, so I revealed it, and I only wrote down the address because you asked me to.”
Even though he insisted until the end, Jooyang did not get angry. In any case, what will punish him will be the words written on the IOU.
“You can do that when you’re young. I understand. There are many cases where the address is wrong. Instead, from now on it’s 100 nyang.”
“A hundred nyang? “Didn’t I borrow ten nyang?”
Jooyong took out an IOU from his pocket and showed it to him.
“Look here. Isn’t it written under the IOU? “If you write down your address or family information incorrectly, you will have to repay ten times the amount you borrowed.”
“The writing is so small you can’t even see it. “The words were written in a very difficult way.”
“Isn’t it basic to write the correct information on the IOU? Anyway, the money you borrowed from now on is 100 nyang. Of course, the interest will be calculated as borrowing 100 nyang.”
“Why do you keep writing lies? “I wrote it clearly.”
Zhou Yang spoke in a soft tone.
“Why do you keep doing this if I bring the real Mine?”
It was clear that he had a sense of trust.
If you just ask, you won’t get the answer you want. Geomugeuk spoke softly as if he was talking to himself.
“What’s wrong with Mine when you’re talking about Yeomwangchae?”
