Heavenly Inquisition Sword - Chapter 103
Episode 103. Unboxing for a generation, maybe more

Haewon Upstairs.
There are three escorts above Haewon. Hamwoldae Wonmyeongdae Cheongyeongdae is that. The three escorts, which should have originally been mobilized for the uptrend, are on standby at the headquarters under the direction of the ark.
Around lunchtime, Yang Seung-won, acting chief of staff, called the escort commanders into his office.
The man and the woman paid attention to Yang Seung-won’s mouth with slightly nervous eyes.
Yang Seung-won put down the ledger he was looking at and made eye contact with the owners.
“Everyone, it seems that Jinanya City is not going to give up in Geumseon Sangbang. Recently, we have brought in the Pungga and the Takga from Waryongjang. You must have heard the rumors about Yonghuiru, so I think you will know who they are without having to explain.”
The two men looked to the side.
Among the attendees, the only female speaker made a puzzled face.
They are called ‘Pungga’ and ‘Takga’, but I’ve never heard of those surnames.
‘If I knew it would be like this, I would have known the names of the ronin who came in as disciples…’
When I was in Waryongjang, I only wandered outside, but I never thought of hanging out with them. Even if he had the will to do so, the result would have been the same. Because my mother forbade me to go near the disciples.
‘Still, if you look at the face, you’ll recognize it…’
If you were a student who sweated at Waryongjang, you might have seen it on the way to and from.
At that time, Hamwol University Daeju Galhong asked.
“If you were a master at that level, you would have been known to some extent inside Waryongjang. no?”
“Honestly, I’m not involved in the operation of Waryongjang… but I don’t know if you can see it. But does it make any difference just because I know them?”
“Even if you’re a ronin, shouldn’t there be a minimum duty? I think those two might be able to give Yeon Dae-ju a step.”
As if to ask for consent, Galhong glanced at Sangam, Daeju, Wonmyeongdae.
“I think it is very likely. Because there is such a thing as strong morality.”
Sangam sided with Galhong.
In fact, not fighting among alumni was also an unwritten rule for Kangho.
Garhong nodded his head with a satisfied face.
“…”
The speaker was burdened, but he kept his mouth shut because he didn’t even insist that he was alone.
Then Yang Seung-won, who had to somehow produce results, took a step forward.
“Yeon Dae-joo, how about meeting the two in secret? I don’t ask them to make concessions, but I just want them to confirm their intentions.”
“Yes, I will make a seat for you. But don’t expect too much. They say that students from Nangin think very differently from ordinary students.”
The speaker reluctantly decided to meet the Pungga and the Takga.
I’m proud of the fact that Waryongjang graduates are receiving attention from above, but I’m also worried inside. The relationship between you, the first disciple, and those who must be the second and third generation disciples.
‘I wish
it was a good relationship.

Jeongju.
one hundred heads.
Baek Seung-ho, the head of the Baek family, looked at his daughter Baek Mi-joo, who returned from marriage. Baek Mi-joo received the terrifying gaze of her father squarely.
“So, we are going to re-establish Waryongjang in Jeongju, so please provide us with funds?”
“yes. Even your father knows. Waryongjang’s swordsmanship is real. To the extent that even the Namgung family coveted it. With a little support, you can get a place in no time. It will be a good day for the hundredth family. Because the only grandson will be a reliable ally.”
“…”
Baek Seung-ho, who had been thinking about something for a while, opened his mouth.
“What do you plan to do with the Moon Disembarker? If she messes with it, it will break again.”
“I’m going to send a separate gift to that witch. Wouldn’t the revenge be over if you dug up her husband’s bones and built a church on top of Waryongjang?”
“Are you saying that you are going to enter a famous school?”
“no. I’m just trying to tie a knot on the line of arranging each other’s Eunwon. If we don’t ask what we did to him, I don’t think he’ll make it.”
“Do you think Mubaek and Seungbaek would agree with you?”
“does not matter. There’s no reason Waryongjang will attack Yumyeonggyo anyway. Even Chilpaimun can’t do it, so how can the Waryongjang fight them?”
“Hmm…”
A quiet voice came out of Baek Seung-ho’s mouth.
In other words, it is correct.
If Myung-gyo doesn’t touch him again, Waryongjang will not be hostile to Myung-gyo.
“First, settle the favor with the Moon Lander. But don’t even dream of joining hands with a famous school. Baekgajang or Yanggajang Waryongjang are all blood allies of Chilpaimun.”
“yes.”
“Let’s discuss it again when the Moonlanders’ affairs are sorted out.”
“Leave that to me.”
Baek Mi-joo had a confident face.
Recently, it seems that Myung-gyo is actively avoiding the dispute with Chillpaimun. There are even rumors that Chilpaimun’s disciples do not escalate the provocation and deal with it quietly.
Some said, ‘I’m avoiding small fights because I’ve already gained a strong position,’ and another said, ‘I have no choice but to reduce noise because I’m close to the imperial family.’
I don’t know which one is true, but it is true that famous schools have softened a little.
Of course, I am not optimistic based on such vague assumptions.
‘Because they said it would grant your wish if you bring the eight spirits.’
Lim Hae-soo, the acting manager of the Joongwon Sangbang, whom I recently met, clearly said so.
It’s an open secret among grave robbers that famous churches collect eight spirits. If you take it to a famous school, it will grant your wish, as long as it is not at least 10,000 yen.
He said that he thought about it for a long time after he accidentally obtained the Paljuryeong. However, there was nothing to receive from the famous school, so I guess I just had it.
It was only later that he confessed his true feelings, saying, ‘I was afraid that it would be difficult if I found out at Chillpai Moon.’
So, later, he agreed to pay the price of 10,000 nyang for the hermit and accepted it.
Of course, he intends to convey it secretly himself.
The less people know about a secret, the better.
If it was an item that Myung-gyo valued so much, it could be exchanged for Eun-won.
For Baek Mi-joo, who wanted to build a family business with her own hands, Eun-won was a luxury. She had no intention of tackling a realistically impossible task.
It may have been more so because she did not have any affection for her dead husband.

Jeongju.
sheep head.
In the guest hall, Yang Yi-seon, the jade kirin of Sogaju, and Mu-baek Yeon, the waryong swordsman, are sitting face to face and chatting. Neither Yang Seon nor Yeon Moo Baek had a bright expression on their faces.
“Brother, these days Jeongju is as chaotic as Lukyang. The superiors have become overly aggressive. As the Chilpai Moon, which used to keep the balance, is silent, it feels like watching the Warring States Period.”
“Does the head of the sheep house receive requests?”
Suddenly, Yeon Mu-baek recalled that he had entered into a fight between the upper chambers at the request of the upper chambers of Baek Se-sang. Could the head of the sheep family be stepping on such a train?
“The upper direction where the disciples belong is constantly sending people. But I still politely decline. As long as the history is long, there are many superiors related to the disciples.”
“ah!”
“The problem is the stores run by the disciples themselves. Until now, they have been protected by both heads of households and have not belonged anywhere. But recently, some Sapa have claimed to be their guardians.”
“A guardian?”
“I’ll protect you, so I’m asking you to pay the ransom. He seems to think it’s worth arguing with the head of the household now. In the past, when they touched us, the chilpaimun naturally came out, but now they are quiet.”
“ha! When will the alternative Chillpaimoon show its former self? It seemed that they walked completely closed after last year’s bloodbath at Eunhajang…”
“They won’t even come into sight except in famous churches now. The enemy is too strong, so we can’t afford to get involved in the conflict between the minor breakwaters.”
“But aren’t the famous religions secretly intervening in the dispute over interests?”
“…”
At Yeon Moo Baek’s point, Yang Seon couldn’t say anything.
Certainly, while Yumyeonggyo remained active behind the scenes, Chilpaimun remained motionless.
“The world is in chaos. At times like these, Chilpaimun should stand up, but I don’t know why he stays still.”
Yeon Mu-baek was angry that Chilpai-mun remained silent even though Myung-gyo swallowed Waryongjang. This kind of treatment to the clan that made great sacrifices in response to their Murim concubine.
“Your brother is right. At times like this, the head of the sheep family should be a source of strength to the students… That’s why. Can you help me a little bit?”
“Anything?”
“As I said earlier, Sapa is demanding protection money from students from sheep families. The problem is that they are scattered, making it difficult to provide timely assistance. If things happen at the same time, it can’t be rectified.”
“ah! Please tell me anytime. Even if it’s not enough, Seungbaek and I will lend a helping hand.”
“Thank you for saying that. And not enough! What kind of modesty did the dragon swordsman of the world say? It will be of great help to the disciples of the Yang Family. Grace will not be forgotten.”
“Grace. It’s not like that. Are we strangers?”
“haha! Thank you for saying that. Our Ewha husband met Hana well.”
“no. Rather, we are grateful for accepting us who have no place to go.”
Yeon Mu-baek did not attach much importance to Yang Seon’s request. In fact, even a foodie would help with that much. Not to mention, since the head of the sheep family was the wife, there was nothing to think about.
“really! I heard that Mrs. Master is working hard to rebuild Waryongjang these days… Do you know?”
In an instant, a bitter smile appeared on Hyeonmubaek’s face.
“Yes, he came to me a few times. He said that he would clean things up with the moonlighter.”
“organize?”
Yang Seon tilted her head.
If you put your father’s ashes in the backyard, you can say that you are a mortal enemy.
Organizing such a silver circle?
“Realistically, revenge is impossible, so let’s forget it.”
“omg! What do you think, brother?”
In Gangho, it is said that ‘a gentleman’s revenge is not too late even if it takes ten years’. However, it was amazing to forget that the opponent was strong after only a year.
“ha! My thoughts don’t make much sense. No matter what anyone says, you are the one who does what you want.”
“But if Waryongjang is rebuilt in the future, wouldn’t the owner be your sister? I think it’s a matter for you to decide.”
“…”
Hyeonmubaek only let out a deep sigh and didn’t say anything.
To be honest, he was half and half.
When considering the honor of my father, revenge is the answer, but considering the reality, I want to compromise moderately. I know that it is a worry that will be criticized, so I just can’t reveal that kind of intention.
After a while, the smoke bag asked.
“Who do you think is the owner of Danggeum Murim?”
“Hmm. Now you can say that it has leaned towards a famous school.”
“How long do you think the famous school will last?”
Yang’s face darkened.
From the imperial family above to the merchants below, it is a world that is eager to establish a relationship with a famous school.
“A generation at this rate? Maybe even more…”
“So I can’t criticize my mother for her choice either. Because I see no other hope. I really hate Chillpie Moon. I hated it as much as I trusted and relied on the fact that I could find no hope in them.”
At that moment, Yang Seon tried to stop her by saying, ‘Why don’t you think of becoming that hope?’
He had no right to criticize him.
It was the same for him not to think of becoming the hope of others.

Unboxing.
Dajeong (茶精) Tea house.
around noon.
Haewon Sangbang Cheonkyungdae Daeju Seonju took a seat in advance and waited for the guests.
The people she was trying to meet now were ‘Pungga’ and ‘Takga’ of Geumseon Sangbang.
The speaker held the warm cup of tea in the palm of her hand.
I can feel my spirit getting uplifted with moderate tension and excitement.
Who are they?
Shall I treat myself as a monk’s honor?
As she was fantasizing in her head, the door opened with a rattle.
