Absolute Regression - Chapter 71
Working with everyone for the 71st episode.
Hyeolcheon Doma came to visit me.
He was always waiting near my residence with a large knife, but these days he comes directly to my place. When I was at home, he came to my house, and like today, when I was in the office, he came to my office.
Since I’m an adult, you should come visit me. There was no such authoritarianism in Hyeolcheondoma from the beginning. He is the kind of person who comes when he wants to and goes when he wants to go.
“Did you hear the news that Seo Hwan-jin’s three disciples became disciples of the Pungcheon cult leader?”
“Yes, I heard.”
“You planned this, right?”
“How come when something new happens, I think it was my fault?”
“So it’s not?”
“That’s true.”
Hyeolcheondoma raised his voice saying yes.
“What on earth are you planning by collaborating with the leader of the Pungcheon cult?”
“What kind of grand scheme is this? “I’m just helping that person.”
“Are you really trying to let Pungcheongyo advance to the Central Plains?”
“Why not?”
Hyeolcheondoma asked with a serious expression.
“Can you handle it?”
“If you are talking about Pungcheon Bridge, don’t I have an elder? If you don’t fight the Mazon, please fight the Pungcheon Cult Leader.”
“You can’t look down on that person. Even though he was brought to our school, he is the leader of the Saeoe Moorim. “If Sae-o-Woorim goes crazy, the midfield becomes a sea of blood.”
Hyeolcheondoma was serious and I took his advice wholeheartedly.
“I’ll keep that in mind.”
When I thought that the leader of the Pungcheon Church was a great person, the man in shackles naturally came to mind. He is the one who controls and leads this great Pungcheon religious leader.
“But why Cheongseon?”
“It was easy to move her.”
“Can Cheongseon become a Majon in the future?”
“The way I see it, the First Emperor and the Three Emperors are fifty steps away. “It will take quite a long time for either of them to become a proper Majon.”
Hyeolcheondoma nodded as if he sympathized with that point.
“So, please raise your seniors to be good inspectors as well.”
“Tell him to wake up from his dream.”
“I am dreaming. “Investigator Seo does not dream of such things.”
“Stop interfering in other people’s business and mind your own business.”
Hyeolcheondoma, who was about to get up from his seat, looked at the Geukpumcheonjamsa wrapped around my wrist and asked.
“What is that?”
“It’s surrounded by style.”
“You got it from the leader of the Pungcheon Church, right?”
Hyeolcheon Doma immediately realized that this was no ordinary item.
“Why do you think that?”
“It’s something I haven’t seen before, and you won’t help the leader of the Pungcheon Church without getting anything in return.”
“Wouldn’t it be too mean to expect a reward every time you help with a task?”
“so? “Didn’t you get it?”
“I got it.”
“You bastard!”
I laughed and Hyeolcheon Doma shook his head as if he couldn’t stop me.
“This is Geukpumcheonjamsa Temple.”
“ah! “This is it.”
“As expected, you know.”
“This is my first time seeing it in person.”
“Would you like me to cut it for you?”
I immediately tried to undo the exquisite cloth wrapped around the handle of my sword.
“done. “It’s something that doesn’t suit this old body.”
“Shouldn’t you cover yourself up because you’re old?”
“No work.”
He is neither authoritarian nor materialistic. At times like this, I think that the fact that he really enjoys reading poetry and paintings may be his essence.
“Did you get anything else besides this?”
“I also received the Blood God Order.”
I was honest with Hyeolcheon Doma. It has been that way so far and we intend to do so in the future as well if possible. Because I believe that this honesty will be the key to completely opening the door to your heart.
“Blood God Order?”
Maybe I spoke too casually, but it took a while for the Blood God Demon to recognize the Blood God Order.
His expression changed in this order. What was the Blood God Order? Blood God? uh? Could it be that blood god? Holy crazy! Blood God Order?
Startled, Hyeolcheondoma suddenly got up from his seat.
“New Foreign Cheil Youngdan?”
“yes.”
“Are you saying that the leader of the Pungcheon Church gave it to you?”
He was so surprised that he couldn’t speak for a moment.
“Where is it?”
“It’s in my stomach.”
“oh my god! “I guess your strength has surpassed mine now.”
I just smiled. In fact, even before taking the Blood God Altar, his strength was comparable to that of the Magons through the Demonic Spirit Altar and the Celestial God Altar. Now that I have taken the Blood God Dan, I will overwhelm them with my strength.
“Don’t worry, the left wing is still the old man.”
“joy! “I received a spiritual order that is more effective than the Heavenly Order, and I even received the Supreme Heavenly Master, so I will take off my left wing.”
“My left wing is one with my body and cannot be replaced. “If I take it off, I will die.”
“As I said before, when the body dies, the wings will fly away to find a new body.”
“I hope you find a better body.”
It was meant as a joke, but Hyeolcheondoma’s expression soon relaxed.
“You didn’t just get jealous, did you?”
“What is jealousy! keep in check “Doing this will make it clear that you can’t take my place just because you’re sick of me.”
“It has been confirmed.”
“It’s really going. “Look at your work.”
Hyeolcheondoma stood up from his seat. As he was about to leave, he suddenly spoke.
“I… I don’t care if it’s a dragonfly wing.”
This means that it is okay to attach multiple wings.
Those words touched my heart. With such tolerance, how could I neglect Hyeolcheon Doma?
It was just as he was about to leave. A subordinate came in and announced the visit of someone else.
“Ilhwageomjon has arrived.”
Hyeolcheondoma was surprised to hear that Geomjon had arrived.
“Did you call me to meet you?”
“How can you say that about someone who suddenly came to see you?”
Embarrassed, Hyeolcheondoma opened the window. I stopped him from going there.
“You don’t have much bodyache.”
“You’re going to hate me when you see me.”
He still found his relationship with Ilhwa Geomzon awkward and difficult.
“Who cares? “When did you start caring so much about others?”
Hyeolcheon Doma, who had been thinking for a moment by the window, returned to his seat.
Meanwhile, Ilhwa Geomzon came inside.
This time she was surprised to see a blood chopping block in the office.
“you? “You didn’t create this place on purpose, right?”
I smiled and told her.
“How can you two be so alike? Do I prepare a table knowing when you two will come? Neither of you came without even giving me a message. “If you want to argue, you should argue with the person above you.”
Then I looked out the window at the sky.
Even though I didn’t have to say, “Isn’t this all destiny?”, the two people understood what I meant.
These are two people I want to create a space for at least on purpose, but when I see them meet so naturally, I wonder if heaven is really arranging their reconciliation.
“Please sit down.”
Ilhwa Geomzon sat across from Hyeolcheon Doma.
“What’s going on, senior?”
“I came because I have something to tell you.”
Then, Hyeolcheondoma stood up.
“Let’s talk. “I will go.”
“It’s a story we can listen to together.”
She must be uncomfortable being with Hyeolcheondoma, but the fact that she was caught like this means that it is an issue that concerns all of us and is equally important. Indeed, that was what she revealed.
“Mabul came to see me and asked me a favor.”
“What are you asking for?”
“One of the two disciples of the Seobhonmazon asked me to support the transfer of Japanese imperialism.”
Selecting a new Mazon was entirely the responsibility of Palmazon. If a Mazon dies without choosing a successor, the remaining Mazon make recommendations to determine the next Mazon. Ultimately, this means that you can only become a Mazon if you receive the support of more than half of Mazon.
“You did that before, right? “As a non-military friend, it would be nice to support our person.”
“You remembered.”
On the other hand, Hyeolcheon Doma was curious about what he meant.
“Are you a friend of mine? “What does that mean?”
“That happened.”
“You’re in cahoots with everyone but me.”
“Is that possible? “You are my first wing.”
This time, Ilhwa Geomzon asked.
“Wings?”
“You are my left wing. And now I am desperately looking for the right wing.”
I deliberately glanced at Ilhwa Geomzon. Ilhwa Geomzon, who read my wish to become the right wing, quickly changed the topic.
“so? “Who are you supporting?”
“This is Cheongseon.”
“For some reason, it seemed like that. It seemed like it had a different meaning from Mabul. “Okay, I also support the Blue Line.”
Aside from his relationship with Mabul, going against another Mazon’s request would be quite a burden. Nevertheless, she is willing to support me.
He was also considerate of me. This can be seen just by looking at the fact that he asked to listen to it with Hyeolcheon Doma. Because this was an issue that needed the help of both of them.
“thank you.”
I really appreciated her. The same goes for helping me with Saujong last time.
Alright, senior. Let’s be friends for life.
She didn’t even ask why it was Cheongseon. That means you trust me.
At that time, Hyeolcheondoma asked me.
“But anyway, aren’t we two votes? “Did you get another Mazon’s ticket?”
To seat Cheongseon in the position of Majon, four votes out of seven Majon were needed.
“Not yet.”
“What are you going to do?”
I spoke politely to both people.
“Please each of you convince just one person. “Please.”
“What good will it be for us if Cheongseon becomes a mazon?”
I gave a cheerful answer to Hyeolcheon Doma’s question.
“I’m better than you two.”
“I should like it!”
“What I like is what the seniors like.”
Of course, Hyeolcheon Doma was joking for no reason, saying he would do the favor.
On the other hand, Ilhwa Geomzone readily accepted my request.
“I will try to persuade the other Mazons for you. “If everything goes well, at least one person will vote for the blue election.”
Suddenly, it occurred to me that her favor might not just be due to Bimu. Because I was doing too much of a favor to say that.
Looking at her, Hyeolcheondoma said with a rough face.
“You make it look like I’m not there?”
On the other hand, it was a remark meant to ease the awkward atmosphere between the two, but Ilhwa Geomjon countered with a straight face.
“Aren’t you a person who has nothing to begin with?”
At that moment, Hyeolcheondoma’s expression hardened. The good atmosphere cooled down in an instant.
The gazes of the two people collided in the air. They fought with their eyes and did not back down even an inch.
I didn’t stop him and gave him enough time to let his emotions run out. This process must be repeated continuously. There’s no way we’d kill each other anyway.
The first person to turn his head was Hyeolcheon Doma. Ilhwa Geomzon, the winner of the snowball fight, snorted. Fortunately, the time it takes for conflicts to be resolved is becoming shorter.
I smiled at Ilhwageomjon and expressed my gratitude.
“Thank you for letting me know about the Mabul incident. I am even more grateful that you are trying to persuade the Mazons. “I will never forget this favor, senior.”
“What is grace? See you next time.”
Ilhwa Geomzon responded with a smile and left the office first.
As soon as she left, Hyeolcheondoma also stood up.
“I’ll go too.”
It’s one thing to receive a blessing from the leader of the Pungcheon Church, and another is to be friends with Ilhwa Geomjon. It seemed like he might be a bit worried, but Hyeolcheon Doma didn’t show it at all.
“For me, the elderly always come first.”
“You just talk nonsense.”
When I laughed awkwardly, Hyeolcheondoma also laughed.
“Even if Geomzon went that confidently, it won’t be easy to convince other Mazon. “We will work diligently on the Mabul side as well.”
“Please help the elderly too.”
“I’m being ostracized among the Mazons. Is this okay?”
Despite what he said, he had a more reassuring back than anyone else.
If two people each persuade just one person, this side can get four votes. It was difficult for me to predict what the outcome would be.
I decided to just trust these two people. Both Doma and Geomzon are people who have lived as mazons for decades. I believe in the life they have lived.
Anyway, these two people do a difficult job for me, and I can’t just pass on this fruit to the leader of the Pungcheon Church.
I headed to the residence of the Pungcheon religious leader. However, the purpose this time was not new items. I intend to lay the first stone to obtain something more precious than new items.
