Chronicles Of The Martial God’s Return - Chapter 525
Episode 25
Early in the morning, a boy opened his eyes. His blank eyes still seemed to be drowsy, but even so, he went outside with a broom. The expression on the boy’s face as he opened the store and swept the yard looked somewhat annoyed.
“Ha… It’s annoying.”
The boy looked reluctant.
Even though it is a store, there are no customers. It is also true that many people live in the bottom of Hanam, but they are reluctant to sweep their yards in a place where no one visits.
If you are saying that you do not get paid because there are no customers, that is not the case.
The store owner was always giving money every month, no matter where the money was coming from, and it became a lifeline for this little boy.
I quietly leaned the broom against the wall and sat down in a corner.
I took something out of my pocket.
This is a bamboo pole that my father had when he was young.
It was also his father’s keepsake, and the boy who held it in his mouth barely managed to light it with his short arms and let out a long sigh.
“evil!”
“You bastard, you’re boneless!”
Then, suddenly, the window on the second floor opened and a book hit my head. The boy groaned and glared sharply at the place.
A man was looking down with a grin.
“Leave it alone!”
“Stop fussing and sweep the yard quickly.”
“Why should I sweep when there are no guests… Oh and! “Why are you making me do it?”
The boy frowned.
The boy is not the only one guarding this store.
It’s not long, but isn’t there a woman?
But all she does is organize her books. He was very different from the boy who took care of all kinds of miscellaneous tasks.
“You get paid, but that kid doesn’t. Don’t you want to get paid too? Then don’t say anything.”
“no way!”
“no way?”
“no. do! do!”
“Hehe Gayuya Jin Gayuya. Don’t do anything else and move quickly. “The fate of this store depends on you.”
“Ha…”
Jin Ga-yu, who had put the bamboo sticks in his arms, sighed and picked up the broom again.
Where on earth did it go wrong?
I just wanted to find a job in Hanam, but there wasn’t a single place that would accept me, so I kept looking.
Aside from the decent wages, the intensity of labor was great.
I had to sweep the yard all day and organize old books.
Sometimes, he had to do copying, and for that he had to learn how to write, something that Jin Gayu was not willing to do.
Jin Ga-yu glanced at this floor and sat down in the yard again.
He took the bamboo stick out of his pocket, put it in his mouth, and glued it again.
As a puff of white smoke rose, Jin Ga-yu glanced at the store’s signboard with an expression of boredom.
“It’s an old school bookstore… I can’t understand it.”
Jin Ga-yu frowned deeply.
* * *
“Ugh… make a lot of noise. “What are you doing this morning?”
A woman frowned with an unwilling expression.
The hand movements that organized the used books were not fast, but precise. The way they organized the mess in an instant made it seem as if life here was older than Jingayu.
“The little guy■ is fussy.”
“Do you find it fun to fight and win against a child like that?”
Ha, the woman snorted.
I slowly came down and looked at the man sitting down with an annoyed expression. His appearance was so uninhibited that it reminded me of someone somewhere, but unlike him, his actions were full of dignity.
“It’s fun… It’s fun…”
The man said and smiled.
That faint smile is somehow foreign.
There was something that even gave goosebumps to the woman watching.
“That guy, Dan Woo-hyeon… Looks like he went to the place where four bitches died today.”
widely!
The woman who was organizing the book put it down and became silent. She didn’t say or do anything for a while, but then a smile appeared on her lips for a moment, and then she quietly opened her mouth.
“is it so?”
“Pretending to like it but not like it….” “I know at least that you’re alive. “The wind there must have said that.”
“Does the wind talk?”
The man blinked his eyes at the words of the woman, or Miho.
I stared at it for a while with a dumbfounded expression, and before I knew it, I swallowed the wind.
“I’m playing, I’m playing.”
“You too.”
“do you want to die?”
“If you’re going to kill me, don’t save me.”
“I saved you because of your beauty, so be thankful to your mother who gave birth to you.”
“Oh my, thank you.”
Miho ignored the man’s words without thinking.
On the contrary, the man glared at Miho with a deathly gaze, but it was because of her tone that she continued talking without giving up even once.
I unconsciously scratched my head and took a deep breath.
“You still don’t like me?”
“If they had come forward in the first place, Duke Dan wouldn’t have had to go through something like this. Somi didn’t have to cry either.”
“It’s all his karma.”
“It’s your business.”
Miho knows.
Who is that man in front of me? Therefore, I could not just welcome the current situation.
This was because I was confident that many things would not have happened if he had dealt with me in the first place.
“Don’t look at me with those eyes. He’s stronger than me. “Even if we actually fight, we won’t be able to win, so I thought it would be best to leave it to him.”
“You are a scapegoat. Our poor Confucius – black!”
Miho sat down and sobbed as if she was acting. The man must have found the sight really amusing and opened his mouth, bursting into laughter without realizing it.
“Haha, don’t fuss. By the way, have you gotten used to this place?”
“This is easier than chewing a piece of sugar. It’s quite comfortable. “There’s nothing else to worry about.”
“Thank goodness.”
“But the fact that there are no customers is something we need to think about.”
“ha ha ha-! Don’t worry about that. “They will come one by one soon.”
The man laughed forcefully as he said those words.
Miho knows that those words are not lies. So, after looking at him for a while with a strange expression, he slowly opened his pretty lips.
“Are you going to pass it on? To that kid?”
“When the time comes. Not now…”
“He must be a huge kid, right? Are you going to pass on this treasure trove of old bookstores…? “A person who threw away everything else and focused only on this.”
“I’m slowly getting tired of that too.”
The man said those words and opened the desk drawer.
Inside, there was a book that didn’t even have a title yet. When I took it out and flipped through one page, the first thing I saw was letters written so densely that it hurt my eyes.
Miho knows what that is.
That’s why I watched him with a more serious expression than other times.
Meanwhile, the man continued to turn the pages, and when he came across a blank piece of paper without a single line written on it, he slowly stretched out his hand.
Strange things started to happen.
The moment my finger touched the white paper, letters began to be engraved. In an instant, one page was filled and another blank page was filled out.
The process of going through page after page continued, and when it finally reached the end, the man took a deep breath with a deeper smile than usual.
“That’s cool.”
“It’s a wonderful life. “No one has lived as hard as he did.”
“Haha, I think it’s not over yet…”
< < ......2” Miho looked at the man with an incomprehensible expression. Although that word was somehow unsettling, I couldn't understand its exact meaning, so I was just filled with puzzlement. “Ah, don’t worry, it’s not him.” " yes?" “No, hehe.” The man smiled wryly. It was so annoying that Miho frowned without realizing it. Every time I heard that kind of laughter, I had a crazy urge to rip that muzzle off. Miho barely held back her clenched fists. widely! Eventually, the man closed the book. A book that fills a whole volume. The thickness alone was considerable. You can't even imagine how much content is written in it. Because it contained one person’s life. “You know what?” “What?” “That guy named Dan Woo-hyeon. That guy...” “You created it and Emperor Tian Wu awakened him?” “Haha, that’s right. “I somehow know.” The man nodded with a satisfied expression. No matter how manly you are, you cannot create a human being. However, if you use the power you have, you can give up some of your power. That person is Dan Woo-hyeon. And it was Emperor Cheonmu who awakened such talent. If it had not been for Emperor Cheonmu, Dan Woohyeon would not have been able to awaken his life nature, and he might have naturally lived an ordinary life like that. “In the end, Emperor Cheonmu shot himself in the foot. “You look like a fool.” “You didn’t create that situation in the first place, did you?” Miho stared at the man's face. His sharp gaze was filled with suspicion as if interest was the cause of all this. But that was almost a certainty, because whether he liked it or not, this man was also inseparable from his relationship with Danwoo Hyeon. However, the man ignored Miho’s words. He smiled as if whatever she was talking about had nothing to do with him, and then turned his gaze to look at the book on the table. “Which one is better?” “This guy is like my alter ego. “You have to give it a good name.” The man was thinking deeply for a while. What would be good? The expression on the man's face as he thought those thoughts looked more serious and joyful than ever. He seemed like a person who had lived for this day. Eventually, a quiet silence came. Miho also didn't say anything and was just looking at the man, so it seemed like there was no sound in there except for the sound of yard work coming from outside. The man, who had been thinking deeply for a while, soon burst into laughter. "good!" I decided on something and stretched out my hand. As I stretched my finger toward the booklet, strangely enough, letters began to be engraved one by one. Magnificent handwriting that looks like a dragon soaring into the sky. Each letter seemed to contain power, making the viewer feel its intimidation. It also seemed like something that could not come from a person's fingertips. Eventually, when everything was over. Five letters were engraved on the book. Military Return Record (Musin Return Record). The man had a satisfied expression. The smile, more triumphant than ever, was filled with the happiness of this company that lives only for this day. however. “It’s not a kid...” Miho shook her head and gave a dumbfounded look.
