Absolute Sword Sense - Chapter 313
[Episode 101: Intimidation (1)]
It’s been a while. “A descendant of Geomseon.”
The golden eye glow beyond the black cloth cotton thread seen when lifting the bamboo rib.
I was momentarily speechless at the way he spoke and the two golden eyes that seemed to convince me that I was a descendant of Geomseon.
At that time, Juklipin, who was trying to take away the sword, said as if he was surprised.
“This person is a descendant of Geomseon?”
“Even if the face is different, it is clearly visible in these eyes.”
Its golden gaze was looking directly at me like an eagle’s eye.
-What on earth is going on? How did I recognize you?
Sodamgeom’s question made my head spin in confusion.
Even if it is covered with a black cloth, it does not mean that the face cannot be completely seen by lifting the bamboo ribs.
I know of only one person with two golden eyes.
But that vaguely visible face was not him.
-Are you saying it’s not Seobok or something?
no.
There is a high probability that it is a bast cotton ball.
Because Seo Bok has achieved perfect immortality, both of his eyes are gold.
There is a high probability that bast masks were also used.
-That guy who is said to be a gold medalist may have achieved complete immortality.
If so, that would be the worst case scenario, but that doesn’t seem to be the case.
If they had achieved perfect immortality, there would be no reason to aim for the Four Love Swords in the first place, and there would be no way they would be so comfortable with someone with golden eyes.
Also, when I first met Geumsangje, he had not received Geumsangjiche’s treatment itself.
That’s why you can’t understand me with your golden eyes.
At that time, the only person who saw me with the golden eye was Seo Bok, who held a government position under Geumsangje.
-ok? But why are you with them?
Probably two things.
One is that the relationship with Geumsangje became amicable again and he began to serve him.
-What about the other one?
Hwanma poison.
-Hwanma poison?
Seolbaek said that because the blood master had died, there was a shortage of phantom poison for the great world.
When I heard this, the first thing that came to mind was that Geumsangje was trying to brainwash numerous figures in the martial arts world with magic poison.
The key at this time was to what extent Hwanma poison would work on the expert.
Even when reaching the peak or transcendental state, the penetration of a considerable amount of poison can be eliminated through internal energy.
However, if the illusion poison could brainwash even those who reached the realm of superhumans, it could be said to be the worst variable.
‘It’s even worse if it’s a phantom poison.’
It would be better to return under the umbrella of Geumsangje.
I think it would be better to try it out.
I looked at him and opened my mouth.
“Seobok.”
At my words, the golden-eyed Juklip did not even move.
Not emotionally shaken at all.
Rather, he spoke to me leisurely.
“You recognize me as expected. “A descendant of Geomseon.”
“Because you are the only one who has achieved perfect immortality.”
At those words, the eyes of the golden-eyed Jukripin, who was presumed to be Seobok, narrowed.
Are you emotionally disturbed?
Then you can’t miss this opportunity.
“As far as I know, Seobok is running away from Geumsangje because you disobeyed his will, so why are you with them?”
In response to my words, the person next to me, who was not supposed to be Seobok, was the person next to me, making a stance with his sword as if to keep me in check.
“Throw away any unnecessary thoughts. A descendant of Geomseon. Gunbang is his loyal confidant. “I won’t fall for your bullying.”
Gunbang (君房) is the son of Seobok.
The situation is ambiguous based on the author’s answer alone.
I need to do a little more guidance.
“Seobok. You disobeyed Qin Shi Huang and even Emperor Jin Shang. “If you do this, you too will know that this is not right…”
Even before he finished speaking.
-Shoot!
The Juklip man, who was in a horse-riding stance, quickly extended his sword towards me.
He’s pretty good, but he can’t be my opponent.
I struck his sword with my sword and broke it at the same time.
-Chaenggang!
“Huh?”
And I tried to stab him right between the eyes.
-Chaeng!
Jukripin, who was to the right of the person assumed to be Seobok, struck down my sword like lightning.
I applied force to the sword that had bounced and spread the sword, but Juklipin also spread the sword and blocked the sword that I swung with minimal movement.
-Chaechaechaechaechae!
‘Block everything?’
I couldn’t help but be amazed at this man’s swordsmanship skills.
I’ve seen many masters so far, but I’ve never seen anyone with such a clean sword stroke.
Even his aerodynamics were not average.
‘Who the hell is it?’
It was impossible to identify its identity unless a special sword was opened and the bamboo rips were removed.
“Damn it!”
In that moment, Juklipin, who had almost been attacked by me, took a step back about five steps.
He must have known for sure that he was no match for him.
The Jukripin who blocked my sword spoke in a modulated voice.
“If you are a descendant of Geomseon, you probably haven’t demonstrated your skills properly.”
“I think it’s the same there.”
Juklipin did not respond to my words.
I was sparing my words as much as possible.
If you do that, I’ll have to make you take off that bamboo lip.
It was time to use my hands.
“This makes it clear.”
Someone I guessed to be Seobok said to me.
What has become clear?
“I wondered how you, a descendant of Geomseon, knew that I did not even understand his true intentions and did not follow him or that I ran away.”
“What are you talking about?”
“There are only a few people who know that I was running away.”
At that time, he spoke to me in a meaningful voice.
“So Unhwi.”
‘!?’
I couldn’t help but be momentarily taken aback by that guy’s words.
Although he said he could see through my energy with his golden eyes, he thought that he could not yet clearly know my identity because his face had been transformed through physical transformation.
My heart was pounding.
Jukripin, who I guessed was Seobok, seemed to have noticed the momentary commotion and snorted and said.
“As expected, that’s right. “It was related to So Unhwi.”
‘huh?’
What does this mean?
I guess they definitely found out my identity.
The guy continued talking.
“Are you surprised? “Because my tail was stepped on.”
I reacted to his words like this and said,
“What are you talking about?”
“It’s no use playing around. “I was already convinced that it was related to Sounhwi, the swordsman, when you came to retrieve the sword.”
“It’s related to So Un-hwi…”
I strengthened the hand holding the Seryeon Sword.
I decided that it would be better to suppress them first rather than have a conversation.
At that time, Jukripin, who I assumed was Seobok, spoke to me.
“It wouldn’t be any good if a fight broke out here.”
“Is that really the case?”
I immediately tried to target him first.
However, I had no choice but to stop at the next words that came out of the mouth of Juklipin, who I assumed was Seobok.
“You wouldn’t want it to be known that Sogeomseon Sounhwi is the same person as Blood Demon.”
At that moment, my mind became complicated.
And then I remembered something.
When I was dealing with monsters in Bongnimgok, one of the three major forbidden areas, Seobok, who suddenly appeared with an iron ball in tow, saw me transformed into a blood demon.
At that time, I couldn’t do anything with him, but I never thought it would turn into an arrow and fly like this.
-This is difficult. If I continue like this, I will lose my position as leader.
That’s right.
Now I understand why they said the plan had been changed.
I guess he was planning to reveal that I, the swordsman, am the same person as the blood demon.
-That’s right. Then, you will be able to easily reinstate the former leader who is pushing you.
I was hit with a real hit.
-We have to stop them from doing that!
Catching them will not stop it.
At the point where the plan was changed, it meant that Geum Sang-je knew.
Then the guy continued talking.
“It seems like he didn’t know that his disciple was a blood demon.”
I frowned at that guy’s words.
I now know clearly what they think of me.
Since I did not know for sure that Sogeomseon Sounhwi was me, I decided that he was his disciple.
Well, common sense tells us that we grew up in a small family in Ikyang, so how can we imagine that we went back in time over 300 years ago?
At that time, Jukripin, who had widened the gap between me, spoke.
“under! Indeed, it was so. Now everything fits together. Hahahaha.”
“…….”
“What should I do about this? “If a disciple’s identity is revealed, the clan will pull him down and the political faction will also publicly criticize him.”
I guess you think you’ve already figured out all my weaknesses.
That’s why they’re making fun of it like this.
He held out his hand to me and said.
“Hand over your sword. “A descendant of Geomseon.”
“Do you think you’ll pass on it?”
He laughed at me and said this to me.
“Don’t you think there is too much weakness in refusing?”
“Weakness?”
“Do you think we wouldn’t have placed anyone next to those involved in the Sogeomseon? Even now, he can kill Ikyang Soga and even Soyeongyeong at any time. Ah, even if you don’t have to, if your identity is revealed, the Murim Federation or the Blood Cult will try to kill you.”
My eyes couldn’t help but sharpen at those words.
Seeing me like this, he couldn’t hide his excitement.
It was as if a tooth that had been suffering for a while had to be removed.
“You wouldn’t want your student to be unhappy. No, the entire recluse will be unhappy. A descendant of Geomseon tried to take control of Jeongsa Murim by moving his disciple. “I wonder how much public attention this will receive.”
“……..”
These guys were very determined.
At that time, the Jukripin who had blocked my sword stepped forward and said.
“Do it in moderation.”
“what?”
“There is a saying that even a mouse will bite a cat if it is cornered. “If the descendants of Geomseon decide to hide themselves here, do you think they will be able to find them?”
At his words, Juklipin, who had been laughing at me, closed his mouth.
I think he thought I was very irritated.
I was the one their leader feared, so if I gave up everything and ran away, I might have to take responsibility.
As if he had this in mind, he told me.
“Right. good. “If you do that, I’ll suggest a descendant of Geomseon.”
“proposal?”
“okay. If you accept this offer, I will guarantee the lives of your disciples and all those involved. And the disciple’s identity will never be discovered.”
They are making an attractive offer.
I snorted and said.
“So what is that offer?”
Then he said with a laugh.
“Hand over that evil sword and the disciple’s blood demon sword. And have the disciple swear allegiance to him.”
“under?”
“Do you think he will just leave those who are disloyal alone?
He said it as if he was considerate.
At this point, you don’t think he realizes his intention to attack both the religious and political factions at the same time.
The guy continued talking.
“As a descendant of Geomseon, you are in a different position from his disciples. He doesn’t like to leave regrets.
“What are you asking me to do?
“Here, remove your dantian and cut the muscles of both arms and legs. “If you do that, I will inform Him so that your life will be guaranteed.”
He seems to think I will accept this offer.
Otherwise, it would be impossible to feel so triumphant.
This was possible because I had already taken care of all my weaknesses.
Sodamgeom asked worriedly.
-oh my god? It’s a complete dilemma.
That’s right.
-Even if you know me as a disciple now, it’s only a matter of time before you get caught.
Probably so.
I have already fully grasped my energy with my golden eyes.
Regardless of whether he steps forward as a swordsman or a blood demon, that person, who is presumed to be Seobok, will definitely notice.
Once my identity was discovered, I was cornered.
I let out a long sigh and spoke as if I was exhausted.
“Whew… It’s not a suggestion, it’s more like a threat.”
He responded to my words with a smile.
“Think whatever you want. “We have nothing to lose here, but you are not the descendant of Geomseon.”
“You have nothing to lose…”
I snorted at his words.
Juklipin scowled at me.
“I wouldn’t be in a position to be so relaxed.”
To this, I said something.
“Heungsan.”
‘!?’
When he heard those words, the guy who had been shaking his shoulders in joy stopped moving.
I didn’t stop there.
“Joyang….Gichun….Seoseong…..Namso” There is
only one reason why he keeps his mouth shut at my words.
This was because the base of Geumsangje was located among these locations.
Even if you are constantly changing locations for your own safety, there will definitely be someone among these locations.
“Do you think I couldn’t find him?”
The guy who was speechless for a moment, probably embarrassed, opened his mouth.
“That won’t change anything. “You can move the base as much as you want, but can you handle it if your disciple’s identity is revealed and he becomes a public servant to the entire martial arts team?”
“sun.”
“what?”
“If you want to expose it, do it.”
When he came out strong, he couldn’t hide his surprise.
I didn’t stop there, I changed my face on the spot using physical transformation.
“Anit?”
The appearance I changed was none other than the Golden Sangje.
Even though it was covered with bamboo ribs and black cotton thread, his eyes must have been wide open.
“Uh…how?”
“iced coffee. “I forgot one thing. Your eyes are different.”
I closed my eyes and took them off, as if my eyes had also been transformed by magic.
‘!!!’
They were all taken aback by the sight of one eye turning into a gold eye, completely resembling that of Geumsangje.
I smiled at them and said,
“Let’s see who will be the first to achieve martial arts success.
“You bastard… no way…”
“Would it be okay to slaughter all those in the Murim Alliance, regardless of gender or age?”
