Absolute Regression - Chapter 299

Episode 299 You won’t come and we won’t wait.

Instead of adoration, laughter erupted.

The main character of the laugh was the middle evil. He was not embarrassed at all even when he was accused of taking a bribe.

“Could it be that you were impersonating the leader of the Sogyo?”

Even Ho-kyung, who was listening seriously, burst into laughter. However, Ho-kyung clearly heard what Joo-yang said earlier.

―The person who accepted a bribe from the enemy and said he would kill you is that person, Demon Sword Master.

If what he said was true, that Miss Zhou was now the person he had to protect.

Ho-kyung asked Jung-ak.

“What are you doing here, Lord?”

“I thought I might need support since my opponent is an expert.”

Hogyeong didn’t believe that. If that was his intention, he would have condescended to lead the magic sword corps in the first place.

He appeared just as his name was about to come out of Zhou Yang’s mouth. It was clear that he had appeared to pressure them not to mention his name.

“As you heard, the author pointed out you. So, it would be better for the great lord to leave for now.”

“You sure don’t believe what the author says, do you?”

“of course. However, since he testified in front of everyone, we should at least conduct a formal investigation.”

“This author is the one who placed Yeomwangchae.”

Then Hogyeong asked Jooyang.

“Is that true?”

Jooyang felt intimidated by the cold question.

“Yes, but what I said is true.”

Hogyeong did not trust those who placed Yeomwangchae.

Seeing his expression harden, Joo Yang was able to see once again how great a person Geommugeuk was. Everyone frowns at it and ignores it, but no one steps forward to get rid of it.

At that time, Geomgeuk quietly intervened and said.

“If they cannot refute the content, they will attack the person who conveyed it.”

At those words, Jungak’s eyes became fierce.

Hogyeong appeased Jungak.

“If it is not true, I will severely punish you for making false accusations. “Don’t worry.”

Jungak seemed relaxed on the outside.

However, he was looking for an opportunity to somehow get rid of Jooyang. If they go back to Zidane and conduct a full-fledged interrogation, it will become a public fact that he received a bribe. If all the other bribes are revealed, not only will he have to resign from his position as a major shareholder, but he will also have to be imprisoned.

Jungak’s eyes turned to the sword dance.

“How are you going to handle it, our Lord?”

“I will deal with him myself as well.”

“Isn’t that treason?”

No one laughed at his joke.

Meanwhile, Zhou Yang looked at the sword dance. Even if everyone laughed, Zhou Yang did not laugh. He was prepared to die anyway.

“Master Xiao, what do you plan to do now?”

Yes, from the beginning to the end, it is Sogyoju.

As if he had been waiting for just that moment, Jungak pulled out his sword.

“How dare you mention Su Qiao Zhou!”

Just when he was about to rush in and cut Jooyang down.

Hogyeong blocked his way.

“Please stop.”

“Please get out of the way. “We cannot just ignore someone who dares to impersonate the leader of the Little Church.”

“I can’t do that.”

The two people glared at each other. It was a moment when the hidden depths of conflict were deeply revealed. In fact, even Jungak expected that Ho-kyung would stop him.

-Kill that guy!

A message flew to Chahoe, one of his limbs. This was an opportunity when Ho-kyung was blocking him.

Chahoe made a surprise attack with his sword.

Shhh!

A ray of rough sword energy flew towards Zhou Yang. It was a powerful sword technique that swept away all the sword dance that was with him.

Boom!

Jooyang, startled by the heavy drinking, fell to the ground and hit his buttocks.

The back of the sword dance was visible. The sword energy that flew in was easily eliminated by swinging the sword while standing still.

“Joint together and kill!”

As soon as the command of the Iljojang Chahoe was given, the magicians of the Demon Sword Corps drew their swords all at once.

At the same time, Ho-kyung also shouted.

“Stop it!”

The demons belonging to Zidane also drew their swords at once. There was a tense atmosphere between the two organizations that were pointing their swords at each other. If things continued like this, Zidane would not be able to handle the elite Demon Sword Team.

It was right then.

As Geommugeuk walked forward, he uttered his prayer.

Shoot!

The prayers of the sword dance spread everywhere.

A huge wave crashed towards them.

There was no place to escape and no escape.

All the horses fell into the water. The abyss pulled them endlessly downward.

They resisted. I tried my best not to get dragged in. However, the prayer of sword dance did not allow for any resistance.

My whole body felt like it was going to explode and I couldn’t breathe.

‘Aaaah!’

I screamed, but no voice came out.

And at the end of the abyss they saw.

The image of a sword dance standing alone in pitch-black darkness, shining with light.

At that moment, the prayer of the sword dance disappeared.

The sword dance of the abyss changed into a sword dance of reality as they stood in front of them.

Everyone was shocked as they exhaled with difficulty. I could tell without having to draw my sword. The martial arts skills of Sword Dance are so overwhelming that they cannot be compared to their own. Also, the fact that it was demonic energy that was strangling them.

Geommugeuk said to Hogyeong.

“It’s been a while since I saw you. That’s how you greeted Zidanju during the celebration. “I will carefully look at the little things to prevent major disasters.”

Ho-kyung remembered it vividly. This was the greeting given at the celebration after being appointed as the first Jidanju. How could I forget that time?

“Were you there too?”

Geommugeuk nodded.

“Who is Sohyeop?”

At that time, a person appeared there.

Ho-kyung was surprised when he saw the person who appeared.

“I’m Zidanju!”

He was Tongcheongak Gangseojidanju Imjeong (林情).

He, who does not appear unless it is important, has appeared here.

“What’s going on here?”

Before coming here, Geommugeuk met the Tongcheongak warrior and through him he asked the Provisional Government to do this work.

“This is to convey the order that all warriors belonging to Gangseojidan should serve Lord Sogyo with all sincerity.”

Everyone was surprised when Su Jiaoju was mentioned. Weren’t they the ones who were making fun of the fake Sojioju a little while ago?

“no way!”

Everyone’s eyes turned to the sword dance performance, and Lim Jeong spoke loudly.

“you’re right. “This is the leader of Sogyo.”

There was silence in astonishment and surprise.

The first person to come to his senses was Ho-kyung. He bowed down with courtesy.

“See you, Lord Xiao!”

Then, not only Zidane’s demons, but also Jungak and Demon Swordsmen all showed their courtesy. In all cases, respect for religious leaders and minor religious leaders was absolute.

“See you, Lord Xiao!”

The voices of the demons rang loudly.

In fact, even if the Provisional Government did not confirm it, the grand prayer he had already shown was enough to know that he was a minor religious leader.

Now, the only person standing there blankly was Zhou Yang.

Geommugeuk looked at him and smiled slightly.

“You will believe me now even if the Mazons don’t stand behind me, right?”

Joo-yang, who came to her senses late, let out a scream and fell flat on her back.

“I was rude to a precious person without knowing him.”

“How rude? “You are the only person who believed that I was the leader of the Little Church.”

Jooyang was moved to tears. I couldn’t believe this. So, doesn’t that mean that you have met with the leader of the Demonic Cult and talked to him for interest? They even called him crazy.

“You will have to endure some hardships in the future.”

I finally found out. What is that ridiculous confidence?

It is the order of the leader of the Demonic Cult, so how can one neglect the work of the power station?

“I will work with a heart of atonement throughout my life.”

You saved your life, what more could you ask for? A moment ago he was struggling in the sea, but now he is starting to float comfortably again. Warm sunlight shone down.

On the contrary, a huge wave was crashing in Jungak’s heart.

‘Why on earth is Su Jiaoju here?’

Was it that Ho-kyung who was targeting him? Could it be that he joined hands with Ho-kyung to target him? However, judging from Ho-gyeong’s surprised reaction, it was clear that he also did not expect the appearance of Su Jiao-ju.

“Now everyone, wake up!”

All the demons there stood up. They still stared at the sword dance with eyes of surprise and awe. He was the person who would become the leader of the cult in the future. If he says, ‘Die!’, you must die immediately.

Geommugeuk walked towards Jungak.

“He received quite a lot of bribes from the major shareholders.”

Before Jungak could act, the Provisional Government spoke first.

“It was confirmed that the gold from the power station was divided and stored in various battlefields in the name of the great general. As the investigation continues, other evidence is expected to come out soon. In addition, investigations were conducted in places other than the power station.”

If it had been said by someone else, you could argue that it was a fabrication, but it was the words of Tongcheongak Jidanju.

Nevertheless, Jungak proudly raised his head and spoke as if it was no big deal.

“I didn’t force them to take it, they gave it voluntarily.”

“Would you have given me money even if you weren’t the Demon Sword Master?”

“It was their choice.”

He looked confident as his subordinates watched. The moment you show a servile appearance, the respect of your subordinates will disappear.

“Did you distribute that money to your subordinates?”

A momentary silence. The only person who handed out money was Chahoe, a Sioux.

“I was going to share it.”

I probably shouldn’t have said that. The eyes of the Demon Swordsmen’s subordinates turned cold at that lame excuse.

“I don’t think the authority of the Demon Sword Corps should be harmed by such a trivial matter.”

Jungak somehow tried to avoid this moment. But the opponent was a sword dance.

“That’s why.”

Geommugeuk looked at the Demon Swordsmen.

“Because you are the Demon Sword Team. Even if we were pushed back to the headquarters by the Murim Alliance or the Apostolic Alliance, we will not lose hope if we hear that you are alive. I have faith that you will overcome the enemies and come to rescue us. “That is our school’s faith in you.”

Pride bloomed on the faces of the Demon Swordsmen.

“That is why you must be different from others. You should not accept bribes just because you offer them. Is this okay? It’s not okay. If you are the kind of person who takes bribes and doesn’t think anything of it, we won’t wait for the Demon Swordsman. Rather than choosing to overcome the enemy, you would think that it would have been a compromise with something easier. You won’t come and we won’t wait.”

Jungak’s expression was distorted, but the Demon Swordsmen were sympathizing with Geomgeuk’s words.

Jungak shouted in protest.

“Why are you worrying about something later that hasn’t even happened?”

“Because I am the one who will be your leader. “Even if other people don’t know, I have to worry about that.”

Jungak could not refute anything.

Sin was added to it.

“It’s not because of the bribe that I can’t forgive you. “You hoped that Jidanju Ho would be killed or injured here today.”

I could feel the surroundings shaking at those words.

“no. “If that were the case, why would I be here?”

“Anyway, the task of finding the person who harmed Zidanju will fall on you. I guess they wanted to end it all here. “I will kill Jidanju Ho and take revenge.”

“Why would I do that?”

The person who answered was Ho-kyung.

“I guess it’s because I found out that I investigated your background.”

Now Ho-kyung could be sure.

“I guess that’s why he came to see me and encouraged me to go on a mission in person.”

Jungak, who was about to scream to stop being framed, made eye contact with his subordinates. Those eyes that were afraid of him were full of distrust and disappointment. Respect was disappearing.

“If you lose me, it will be a huge blow to our school’s strength.”

“Considering the possibility that the sword will be pointed at us for money, it might actually be beneficial.”

“That would never have happened.”

“You don’t know that. “What happens when you get paid too much to refuse?”

Geommugeuk calmly spoke to Jungak, who was full of resentment.

“This is why. This is why you shouldn’t receive it in the first place. Whether what you say is true or not, everything gets messed up like this. “It makes me look like someone who would sell me for a few pennies.”

Geommugeuk said sincerely.

“Pay for your sins and start again. “Then I’ll give you another chance.”

Jungak let out a long sigh for the first time.

How many years will I live in prison? Five years? Ten years?

“I don’t want to do that.”

Jungak’s choice was to kill Hogyeong and die himself. I had to blame someone, and the target of that resentment was not myself.

‘This is all because of you!’

I lunged at him and drew my sword.

Flash!

The moment when his swift sword was about to split Ho-kyung’s body.

His sword, which was cutting a huge rock, got blocked by something and the sword broke.

Clang!

The moment Jungak confirmed his opponent, his eyes widened.

Puaiiyak!

The opponent who broke his sword and cut his chest again was a terrifying evil spirit.

Suddenly! Suddenly! Suddenly!

Swords from demons flew from the left, right, and behind. Jungak died as his entire body was cut off.

Those who watched were so shocked that they could not breathe properly.

Since they knew that the only demonic technique in Xiaojiaoju that brings out evil spirits is the Nine Fire magic technique, they all bowed their heads in courtesy. This time, it was not about the sword dance performance, but was a courtesy to the Nine Fire Magic Gong.

At that time, Chahoe, who was a member of the middle evil tribe, tried to fulfill the deceased leader’s will, but fell dead from Hogyeong’s sword.

Zidane’s soldiers were surprised by Ho-gyeong’s skills. Ho-kyung had a meticulous personality and was always seen shuffling documents at his desk, but Ho-kyung was much more expert than they thought. I was even more impressed because I never showed off my skills. If I had known this would be the case, I would have complained less about having a lot of work to do.

Unlike Zidane’s warriors, whose morale was high, there was only gloom in the Demon Sword Team. Although they were corrupt warriors, they lost their leader and leader.

The sword dance soothed their hearts.

“By this time, everyone will be drinking at the Magachon bar I often go to. Worry about money, worry about children, worry about work, worry about people. They may have all kinds of worries, but at least they won’t have to worry about the sado-maeng warriors opening the bar’s door and coming in to kill them. why? “Because you are protecting the Gangseo region.”

Geommugeuk expressed his honest feelings with sincerity.

“I’m giving them the best treatment, but I know it’s not enough. With your skills, you could go out and make ten times more. Instead, you won’t be able to get the honor of being called the Heavenly Demon Church’s elite magic sword corps. You might say that fame feeds you, but you have to live on fame. “Because you are the ones who use that honor to feed others comfortably.”

After a moment, Geomugeuk added the last word.

“Even if no one recognizes me, I will recognize it.”

Pride and determination appeared in the eyes of the magic sword warriors. What about comforters who only use words? This is comfort given not by anyone else but by the person who will become the leader of the religious sect.

“I will sacrifice my whole life to be loyal.”

The consolation for them was not the end, but just the beginning.

“Now everyone follow me.”

Both the Demon Sword Corps and Jidan’s martial arts team followed the sword dance performance.

Geomgeuk also spoke to Jooyang.

“Take the lead.”

“Me?”

“It’s your place to be the main character, so you should go.”

Jooyang could tell. That he was going to take them all to the enemy’s manor. It wasn’t about taking the enemy’s defeat to a high level.

Because Geommugeuk said this to the provisional official of Tongcheongak.

“Please send a message to the Apostolic Alliance. It is the Gangseo District Unity Day, so don’t mess with us today.”
