Chronicles Of The Martial God’s Return - Chapter 25

Episode 25

“Wow!”

The people’s shouts were loud. The moment

hundreds of police officers entered Agyang, dragging members of the Black City Council,

all the people of Agyang shouted at Hong Won-chang.

The Ronin and the Murim people who came to check on the captured Black Dog could not hide their excitement at that moment.

‘= You are a complete hero.’

Heung Won-chang waved his hand and looked proud.

Well, since we have accomplished something that not even the world’s Murim League could have done, it is only natural that we would raise such shouts. Perhaps it was like seizing the opportunity to advance to the center that I had longed for.

This was all thanks to Dan Woohyun.

After meeting him, everything went smoothly without any problems.

The position of Akyang’s prefect was well on its way to success, but now it seemed like no one could stand in Hong Won-chang’s path.

The total amount of their bounty

is a huge amount of money, over 100 nyang.

‘If you consider the reward money coming from the imperial family, it is not such a waste of money.’

It was none other than the extermination of the Black Society. It was an event so big that the king and the imperial family were already excited, so there was no doubt that enormous wealth and fame were waiting for them. For a long time, the

imperial family and the martial arts people tried to wipe out each other, but they did what no one was able to do successfully.

It was truly the first time in a long time that the imperial family had overwhelmed the martial arts.

If you think about it, it was such a big ball that it wasn’t even worth the money he gave to Dan Woo-hyeon.

‘He is worth a million gold pieces.’

Hong Won-chang grinned.

Even if Dan Woo-hyeon were to give up all his assets, he would give it to him. He trusted her that much, and in the end, it seemed like his feelings for Dan Woo-hyeon had grown more than his loyalty to the imperial family.

‘Climb higher. Only for Him!’

Due to his position as Hyeonryeong, what he could do for Dan Woohyeon was limited. It would only be a simple convenience, but if he was promoted to a higher official position, he would be able to do more things.

Hong Won-chang made up his mind and entered the government office.

Meanwhile, there was a woman quietly looking at him. She was wearing a hat with cotton thread, perhaps to hide her face from others, and did not take her eyes off Hong Won-chang as he entered the government office.

‘You truly are a hero.’

Namgung Sohye snorted and made a dumbfounded expression. He probably couldn’t have accomplished it on his own, but look at his actions.

Doesn’t it seem like he has the whole world?

‘Among those guarding the surroundings, there are none who appear to be experts… but I don’t think the author is an expert at all…’ This was

because he was at a third-rate level who couldn’t even handle his own energy.

If such a person were to say that he had truly eradicated the black society, every passing dog would laugh at him.

‘It’s clear there’s someone behind… but who could it be?’

Namgung Sohye tilted her head.

The question was hardly resolved. Still, I couldn’t capture Hong Won-chang and torture him, so I just felt frustrated.

‘Umm-! There wasn’t much money left, so Namgung So-hye sighed and said, “If I don’t solve it quickly and go back, I’ll be fine.”

At first, her mission was simply to patrol the village of Tianzi Mountain and return. So I brought only about 50 nyang of silver that I received from the Murim League, but as the mission took longer than expected,

I ended up spending quite a lot of money.

As a result, the only money left in my pocket is five nyang.

It may be possible to stay in a cheap guesthouse, but it will soon become impossible to provide food, clothing, and shelter.

However, there was one way.

The plan was to visit the Murim Maeng branch, which was about seven days away from here, and collect the money. Then, during that time, someone else could have contacted the expert hiding behind Hong Won-chang.

So there were a lot of worries.

‘I need to finish the work as quickly as possible and go to Meng Jibu to get the money.’

Namgung Sohye thought about this and nodded repeatedly.

* * *

Namgung So-hye was able to realize within a few days that thoughts are just thoughts.

On a scorchingly sunny afternoon, Namgung Sohye sat down and drooped in an alley that few people passed by. I wasn’t thinking about anything, nor was I trying to do anything.

Gurgling-!

I was just hungry and exhausted.

“Damn it….”

I looked up at the sky with tears in my eyes.

The day was unusually hot and I was irritated.

It had already been five days since I arrived in Agyang. As I was spending money on eating, sleeping, and moving around, the amount of money I spent was gone in an instant.

I was saving it so much, but on the fourth day, after eating a bowl of somen, my wallet was empty. I had been like this for a day and a half without eating anything.

‘If my grandfather knew my current situation, he would try to kill me.’

She was drooping, and more than her hungry stomach, she had to pray that this fact would not be found out by anyone else.

The moment she enters the ears of Namgung Cheon, the lord of the Murim, Namgung Sohye will undergo arduous training that others cannot even imagine.

‘Hmph… what should I do?’ Even though Namgung Sohye was a genius in martial arts and held a high position as Lord of the Phoenix Order, there was no change in the fact that she was ultimately a woman with a weak heart.

She was a woman who had never experienced hunger.

She was a direct descendant of the Namgung family, who were at the top of the eight major families, and had distinguished herself even from a young age, so she had no trouble with the family.

Namgung So-hye shook her head and said,

‘Stupid! I should have bought just one confectionery a day and shared it several times…!’

I don’t know how long she would have been able to survive with that, but the fact that she used up all of it in three days at most, even though she had five nyang, was proof that she was quite a spendthrift.

It was then.

As she was sighing and blaming herself, a shadow suddenly appeared in front of her eyes. Startled, she quickly raised her head.

“huh?”

At first, I thought I had seen something wrong. It’s strange that a child is alone in such a dark alley.

The second was puzzled by what the child was holding out.

It was a small dumpling. Although there was a trace of a small bite, it felt warm as if it had just been steamed.

“What is this?”

“Dumplings;

“Why do you do this to me…?”

The child seemed to have suddenly remembered something and laughed. He held out his hand again with a very happy expression.

“Somi… I was full…” It was a lie.

I can only see traces of one bite, but I’m full?

Namgung Sohye looked up at the child with a blank expression. An action that shows the sincerity of the eyes and facial expressions that are extremely pure.

The child placed a dumpling in Namgung Sohye’s hand.

“it is delicious!”

Lantern Lantern.

The child’s eyes twinkled and his small hands were folded to his chest. His gaze did not leave Namgung Sohye and seemed to want her to eat quickly.

Namgung Sohye swallowed her saliva and took a big bite.

“It’s delicious.”

“Yes? lol.”

Why are there such innocent children?

Namgung So-hye looked at the child while chewing a dumpling. Feeling the child’s gaze made me feel warm in some way.

” to?”

Namgung So-hye shed tears as she was overcome with emotion.

I continued to eat dumplings while shedding tears like chicken shit.

The child who was watching this fidgeted, not knowing what to do, and eventually carefully approached him and wiped away his tears.

“are you okay! “Don’t cry. Somi did that too, but she’s okay now!”

I wasn’t sure what he was talking about, but it seemed clear that he was comforting her. Namgung So-hye smiled, wiping away her tears as if she had gained some strength without realizing it.

“What’s your name, little one?”

“I’m Somi Hwa Somi.”

“It’s a pretty name. “My sister is called Namgung Sohye.”

“It’s a pretty name for the year!”

As I looked at the child’s bright expression, my heart seemed to melt without me knowing. It was a comfortable feeling, as if all the worries in my head had completely disappeared.

“Where are your parents? At least a word of thanks….”

“Huh?”

If you receive a favor, repay it.

That was Namgung Sohye’s iron rule. Even though it was like this now, I planned to repay them many times over if I came back here someday.

However, the child’s expression became somewhat glum.

The moment you worry that asking about your parents was a mistake.

“Somi”… her parents didn’t know”….”

“I am this child’s father.”

Just before Hwa So-mi opened her mouth, a man’s hand appeared from nowhere and stroked the child’s head. Surprised, Hwa So-mi looked up with wide-eyed gaze.

Dan Woo-hyeon was there.

“ah… . Are you the father of this child? Really”… feel”… buy”…?”

And for a moment, Namgung Sohye stared at the man. What is this incredibly familiar face? It was like I even heard a voice.

But I can’t think of anything, so I’m tilting my head.

The man guided Hwa So-mi’s hand.

“How does it feel to be hungry?”

Words were heard along with laughter.

At first, without thinking, I tilted my head because I didn’t really understand what he was talking about.

‘How does it feel to be hungry? It really feels like something….’

While she was thinking that, Hwaso-mi and the man were getting further and further apart. Then, at some point, Namgung Sohye seemed to recall a memory and suddenly stood up.

‘That person?!’

It’s definitely true.

It’s him.

A strange man who suddenly disappeared before my eyes.

He was such a strange man that at first I thought it might be a dream. Didn’t he even empty the pockets of the bandits right before his eyes?

“you! “It was him back then, right?”

Dan Woo-hyeon nodded as he saw the light in Namgung So-hye’s eyes, who was already blocking his path. There was no need to hide it, and I had no desire to hide it either.

“］三1“*♦↔** I’m glad…*♦New Year

“Lucky? “What is fortunate?” Namgung Sohye clenched her fists.

In fact, saying such a thing in itself hurts her pride. Who is she? Isn’t she a female warrior who is a direct descendant of the Daenamgung family and will lead the martial arts kingdom in the future?

But now the situation was very bad.

Since I didn’t know anyone in Agyang and couldn’t easily get help, I desperately didn’t want to miss this ray of light.

Didn’t he even come back to life because of that child?

This was clearly meant to be.

“hate.”

“I haven’t said anything yet”

“I don’t like it anyway.”

“Please help me instead of doing that!” Namgung Sohye was in tears.

The man seemed to already understand what she was trying to say.

For the first time in her life, Namgung Sohye wanted help from someone and forcibly caught a man who refused. If anyone who knew her heard this, they would scoff.

On the other hand, Hwa So-mi quietly watched the two people bickering. Then, he turned his gaze and looked at his right hand, wondering what felt so good.

Dan Woo-hyeon is holding her hand tightly as if she will never let go.

The warmth coming from there felt so warm.

“I am this child’s father.”

Actually, I don’t know what I was thinking when I said that. After losing my parents, I felt like my heart was even more shaken because I never thought I would ever have parents again.

Hwa So-mi calmed her pounding heart and pulled the hand she was holding tightly.

” huh?”

“Please help us…”

Hwa So-mi muttered softly. The sound eventually became quieter to the point where it was barely audible, but she must have gained courage as she closed her eyes tightly and shouted.

“dad!”

It was the first day Dan Woo-hyeon was surprised.
