Moon-Shadow Sword Emperor - Chapter 125
Episode 125
‘Is this a request for support from another branch?’
It was a common occurrence.
Meng branches that were short on manpower would often request support staff from other branches.
And the Sacheon branch was the most free and overstaffed branch out of all the branches.
‘Qinghai, Yunnan, Guizhou, Guangxi, Zhejiang, Fujian. Did they come from six different places? There are a lot of them.’
I drew a faint smile on my lips.
This was precisely the reason why I hoped to be assigned to the Sacheon branch of the Murim League.
‘If you put your mind to it, you can go on dispatch to any region under the pretext of a request for support. In other words, there is no concern that the range of movement will be narrowed.’
By nature, people who belong to a group are subject to various restrictions.
I knew that after joining the alliance, I would not be able to operate as freely as before.
That’s why I applied to the Sacheon branch, not the headquarters.
I thought that if I had to be bound by rules and restrictions anyway, I should at least secure an environment where I could do something independently.
‘Once the personnel sent from the headquarters arrive and the branch is stabilized, I’ll just take care of a few things and then go on a business trip right away.’
I laid out the support requests sent from each branch on my desk and looked through their contents.
Of course, they did not even pay attention to the request for support sent from the Cheonghae branch.
‘It’s not worth worrying about. Cheonghae is now a dead place. ‘At this point, there’s nothing I can do just because I’m going to Cheonghae.’
Sooner or later, Cheonghae would become the territory of the Demonic Cult.
I had no intention of damaging my career by jumping into a fight I was sure I would lose.
‘Requests for support from Zhejiang and Fujian are also ignored. Even if you go there, there won’t be anything special to do other than helping the residents who have been harmed by Japanese pirates.’
What remained were Guizhou, Yunnan and Guangxi.
The words written on the request for support sent from the Yunnan branch caught my attention.
The recent movements of southern Manchurian warriors are unusual.
Maybe the Beast Palace will come into play.
Yunnan was a region adjacent to Nanman.
As such, the Yunnan branch of the Murim League and the Jeomchang Sect have been closely watching the movements of Yasugung, the loser of the South Manchuria, for a long time.
In other words, they were a kind of breakwater that protected the central plain from the new and martial arts.
‘Guizhou and Guangxi… are they in conflict with the evil martial arts group?’
This was the reason why the Demonic Cult had no choice but to gain the upper hand over the righteous faction, Wulin, in the early stages of the Great War.
The only enemy of the Demonic Cult is the martial arts faction, but there are many enemies of the martial religious faction other than the Demonic Cult.
Whether it be the Sadomun faction (邪道門派) who gathers together at any opportunity and tries to form an alliance like the Murim League, or the rulers of the new martial arts (塞外) who are targeting the fertile lands of the central plains.
Simply looking at the size of the power it possessed, the Demonic Cult could never be a match for the Baekdo Martial Arts.
What do you do if you have a large number of high-level unmanned personnel?
First of all, there is a big difference in the number of people.
No matter how high the average inaction of the members was, there was no business in the face of overwhelming volume.
Nevertheless, there were three main reasons why the Demonic Cult was able to lead the war to its advantage in the past life.
First, unlike the Murim Alliance, the Demonic Cult is a single force.
Second, the political faction, Moorim, cannot concentrate its capabilities on one point due to the circumstances.
Thirdly, the Lord Ma had prepared various arrangements to achieve the great precepts.
Of course, after the Central Plains were divided into the North’s Magyo and the South’s political faction, the Murim faction, the Magyo side was unable to continue a unilaterally advantageous fight.
As their territory of control expanded, they also had to fight to protect it.
‘I plan to visit Yunnan someday, but there is no need to make it a priority.’
In the history of previous lives, there was no case where the Beast Palace came out and invaded the Central Plains Wulin.
It may be different in this life, but I thought that possibility was low.
‘The abnormal atmosphere detected by the Yunnan branch is due to the power struggle taking place within the Beast Palace. At least the Beast Palace won’t move until the successor fight is over.’
After pushing the application request form from the Yunnan branch to the edge of the desk, I picked up one of the two remaining documents and nodded.
At the end of the document was a seal symbolizing the Gwiju branch.
‘The timing is just right.’
I knew because I had memories of my past life.
Where is Seogunak, the Iron Blood Demon, who was dispatched to Gwiju under the order of the Demonic Cult, and what is he currently plotting?
‘Preparations for executing the plan will have been largely completed by now.’
The fourth disciple of the Demonic Cult, who was secretly plotting to throw the martial arts faction into chaos in Gwiju.
A young man who accidentally found out about this fact defeats him and prevents the incident.
It was an absolutely ideal picture.
Take revenge and make achievements.
I went on my way home from work with a pleasant smile on my face.
‘Wash your neck and wait. execution.’
* * *
“sorry.”
“…….”
The congressman shakes his head with a heavy expression.
The middle-aged man sitting across from the table lowered his head, biting his lip.
“It would be a good idea to prepare your mind.”
“What kind of disease is it?”
“I do not know. If I had known the name of the disease, I would have found a cure. “This is the first time we have seen the symptoms that your wife is suffering from…” A
moist film filled the eyes of Bang Cheok-sam, a middle-aged man.
Even the party’s lawmakers, who were her last hope, were unable to treat her illness.
Let alone treatment, they could not even find out the name of the disease.
Part of me wanted to grab the congressman by the collar and scream.
And then you guys are lawmakers?
How can it be so easy to say that you are giving up a patient’s life?
Find a cure at all costs.
“……All right.”
But I couldn’t do that.
Because I know how hard they worked over the past ten days to find out the identity of my wife’s illness.
Because the request was made on the basis of their personal relationship with the head of the family, the doctors paid more attention to his wife by reducing the time they had to take care of other patients.
It was a pity that no results were achieved, but I couldn’t take my anger out on the harsh situation.
If you do that, you will tarnish the face of Dangbaek, who gave you convenience at best.
Bangcheoksam left the clinic with heavy steps and headed toward the nearby base.
Since my wife fell ill with a strange illness, I have never had a drink.
However, I wanted to drink too much right now.
I didn’t think I could bear it without getting drunk.
“……?”
Bangcheoksam, who was about to enter the base, narrowed his eyes and raised his head.
A young man was standing in the way, staring in this direction.
“Do you have any business for me?”
“Are you senior Changmyeonggung (彰明弓)?”
“Who knows about me?”
“The greeting was late. “My name is Yeon-woon, and I am now the deputy director of the Sacheon branch of the Murim League.”
“Yeonsoun…?”
Bangcheoksam, who was tilting his head, let out an exclamation the next moment.
It was a name I had heard of before.
“Heavenly Dragon. “Moorim’s most famous review index.”
“They are called by that nickname.”
“So, why did the winner of the Yongbong Branch come to visit me?”
“I can solve your concerns.”
“What do you mean?”
“Isn’t your wife suffering from a strange disease and dying?”
“……”
Bangcheoksam’s expression hardened and he placed his hand on the sword soldier.
I was instinctively wary.
‘Damn it. I left my bow in the dressing room.’
I was able to ignore the fact that I recognized his identity.
However, if you even know that a family member is suffering from an illness, the story is different.
“You don’t have to be so guarded. “I didn’t specifically mean to provoke you, senior.”
The young man, Yeonsun, raised both hands as if to express that he had no hostility and said.
“What is your purpose?”
“Didn’t I tell you? “I can solve your concerns.”
“Are you really saying that you can cure a strange disease?”
“That’s right.”
“You can treat a disease that even the party’s lawmakers couldn’t? “How can you believe that?”
“It is natural that the doctors failed to treat my wife. “In the first place, what your wife is suffering from is not a disease or anything like that.”
“……?”
“What your wife is suffering from is Simma.”
“gibberish! “If it’s Simma, there’s no way I wouldn’t recognize him…”
Bangcheoksam, who was furious, trailed off with his eyes wide open.
He stepped back and muttered in disbelief.
“Ah, Lord Akga, why are you here…”
* * *
“I don’t know why you’re so surprised. “It’s probably not a secret or anything that I’m staying at the Sacheon branch.”
Ak Yeo-ryeong, a woman who suddenly appeared behind me with a bright smile on her face, said with a faint smile on her face.
I looked back at her with a puzzled expression and asked.
“Were you two spherical?”
“We moved together briefly before. “We joined forces in the process of chasing down Mine, who caused the serial murders.”
After finishing speaking, Ak Yeo-ryeong clapped her hands together loudly.
‘her… … .’
I let out an inward exclamation.
A foreign energy that irritates the skin.
The energy that spread through the sound waves formed a membrane that blocked noise from the area.
‘It seems to have a slightly different nature from ordinary spiracles.’
It was truly an amazing talent.
Should we really say that he is an absolute master who holds the first place in the Ten Heavenly Emperors?
“Anyway, it’s been a while since I’ve seen you, so how about we say hello?”
Ak Yeo-ryeong spoke as if reprimanding Bangcheoksam.
Bangcheoksam, who managed to regain his composure, politely raised his sword.
“……long time no see. “Matriarch.”
“okay.”
“But why is Lord Akga with this young man?”
“Because I’m going through the same problem as you.”
“yes?”
“The disciple is lost in mental evil and is wandering around the world of death.”
“…!”
“Fortunately, the condition has improved a lot now.”
Bangcheoksam suddenly turned his head.
He said, glaring at me with burning eyes.
“Really?”
“What do you mean?”
“Being able to heal my wife.”
“Didn’t I tell you just now?”
“……”
Bangcheoksam let out a deep breath as if suppressing his passion.
“request!”
I couldn’t hide my embarrassment at his subsequent actions.
Bangcheoksam, who was kneeling on the ground with no time to stop him, put his hands and head on the ground and shouted.
“Please help me! “I will do anything!”
Changmyeonggung, renowned as one of the most powerful among the hundred great masters, bowed his head at the feet of a mere late Jisoo.
Anyway, I never thought he would come out in such a low manner.
I felt like I knew how much he cared for and loved his wife.
I hurriedly grabbed both of Changmyeonggung’s hands and helped him stand up.
“Don’t do this. “I feel burdened by my juniors.”
