Moon-Shadow Sword Emperor - Chapter 443
Episode 443
The human brain was an unknown territory that no scholar or lawmaker could fully understand.
However, there was no one who did not know that this organization played the role of a command center that controlled the body.
What if such an important organ is damaged?
It wasn’t strange what happened.
It may affect your body or change your personality.
You may lose your senses or you may die.
Mania was a symptom caused by uncontrolled internal energy rushing to the head.
The words of those suffering from this symptom were fixed.
Either be subjugated or self-destruct.
The former would be easy to understand if we think of Mine, who was trapped and struggling in the Plum Blossom Examination held by the disciples of the Hwasan Sect in the past.
Of course, strictly speaking, he did not suffer from mania, but was intoxicated by demonic nature.
In the case of the Flame Soul Sword, it was the latter.
Although he was miraculously alive thanks to the Haenam believers taking appropriate measures, if things were left as is, he would soon lose his life.
‘No matter how you save it, the aftereffects will last for a long time.’
First, I had to collect the toxins that had spread all over my head, push them out through my body, and remove the toxins.
This was to prevent recurrence of mania, but there was also the reason that it could be treated more easily.
Wouldn’t it be a big deal if the energy that was given priority over other parts of the body and then flowed back to the head instead of following external control?
‘Take your time and do it step by step.’
The wall of waste that had clogged the blood vessel was carefully scraped away with a brain machine needle.
Isn’t the order different from what you said a moment ago?
Of course, the first thing to do was to drive the bet toward the body.
However, the condition of the Flame Soul Sword was so bad that advance preparation was necessary.
First of all, there has to be a road to drive out bets or not.
There were three main things to do:
1. Clear the blocked path.
2. Drive out the bet through the cleared path.
3. Removes impurities and impurities stuck to various parts of the head.
If I just figured it out somehow, the rest would be easy.
‘Because the rest of the area is relatively less burdensome.’
Of course, it is unclear whether Yeomhongeom will be able to regain his health even if the treatment is successfully completed.
I couldn’t let go of my tension even for a moment.
There was no time to focus on anything else.
I concentrated all my attention on the work.
Until I felt like I couldn’t stay focused any longer.
“Whoa.”
When I opened my eyes and lifted my hand from the Myeongmunhyeol, the world was already tinged with twilight.
Normally, the beggar in my stomach would have been screaming for food, but perhaps because I was exhausted, I didn’t even feel hungry.
I had sweated so much that my clothes were damp.
‘It’s no joke. I have to repeat this for at least two more days.’
It was much harder than I thought.
It seemed like it would take about 15 days for my body to heal.
The urge to hit everything and run away suddenly rose up.
Since it’s an island, there’s nowhere to run to.
‘I’d like to sleep like this.’
Anyway, I couldn’t lie down here.
Shouldn’t we at least inform Jang Moon-in of the progress?
As I left the medical room, the disciples of the Haenam faction guarding the entrance stared at me.
“…….”
There was a clear sign that I wanted to ask how the treatment went, but I ignored it and left.
I didn’t think I would have the stamina to talk to everyone I met.
At that moment, a long-time member of the Haenam faction was approaching this direction.
It seems that after finishing work, he went to the medical room to check the progress of the treatment.
“You don’t look like you. Was the treatment that difficult?”
“yes. “The condition was very serious.”
“That friend of the Flame Soul Sword….”
“His condition has slightly improved, but I can’t give you any confirmation at this stage.”
“Still, I’m glad you’re in remission. “I will ask you to take good care of me from now on.”
“I’ll do my best.”
A look of relief appeared on Jang Mun-in’s face.
Although he did not receive a definite answer that the Flame Soul Sword would be able to recover, he seemed satisfied to have heard a hopeful story.
Perhaps no one has even said anything positive to him until now.
“I’d like to get some rest first.”
“Okay, you look very tired. Let’s go and get some rest. Seongdam!”
At Jang Mun-in’s call, Yook Seong-dam, a leading disciple of the Haenam sect, rushed over and prostrated himself.
He was squinting in this direction with a very rigid expression, showing that he was still having a hard time with me.
‘Did you tease me too much when we first met?’
I burst into laughter and followed Yook Seongdam, who was leading the way, to my accommodation.
The disciples of Haenam Sect that I met along the way recognized me and bowed to me.
“This is the place.”
“Thank you for the guidance.”
“no. If you need anything, please talk to the disciple waiting on the first floor at any time.”
“All right.”
Yook Seong-dam, who took me to the VIP room, left as if running away.
I looked at the neatly made bed and was lost in thought.
Should I just lie down like this or should I wash my body first and change my clothes?
The worries of a lifetime did not last very long.
It was because a familiar figure stopped outside the door and started talking to me.
“Are you inside?”
It was Cheon Ga-ryeong, a member of the Cheonan Gambu investigation team.
I lowered my voice and answered in a very serious tone.
“I don’t know who you’re looking for, but there’s no one like that here.”
“Stop playing around.”
“I don’t know what your business is, but if it’s not important, I’d like you to come back later. “I’m so tired right now.”
“It doesn’t matter, but is it okay?”
“……?”
“It’s a story you might be very interested in. “Don’t come later and ask me why I didn’t tell you sooner?”
“Could it be that you received a message from Hao Mun that the Demonic Cult’s forces have begun to move?”
“That’s not it.”
“then?”
“While walking around here and there during the day, I found a sign symbolizing Wolhwajang (月華莊).”
“……what?”
“They said they found the same mark as the one found earlier at Mokwon House.”
I flung open the door.
Cheon Ji-ryeong’s eyes frowned slightly at the smell of sweat.
I asked urgently, not paying attention to her reaction.
“Where was it discovered?”
* * *
Unable to resist Cheon Ga-ryeong’s dissuasion, I washed my body and changed my clothes and left Haenampa and headed to the nearby coast.
A rough terrain that is not thought to be traveled by many people.
The sheer cliffs and waves rolling below them caught my eye.
After a light leap, I followed Cheongaryeong and landed on a small road located in the middle of the cliff.
Just a little while ago, I felt like I was going to collapse from the overwhelming fatigue, but now I felt strangely light.
I was aware of it myself.
He said he was excited like a child when he heard that traces of Wolhwajang had been discovered.
‘Maybe I can get a clue to master the twenty-fifth herbivore.’
The twenty-fifth traces of herbivory found in Mokwon House.
I don’t know how much effort and research I put into learning it.
In conclusion, I didn’t get much income.
If I could say it was an achievement, would it be that my understanding of the 24-year-old herbivore that I was already familiar with has deepened?
No matter how talented I am in martial arts, restoring Chosik using only traces carved on the wall was not as easy as it sounds.
‘If you continue to study, you will be able to acquire it someday…’
The problem was the timing.
Isn’t it meaningless that he couldn’t learn herbivory before the final battle with the Demon Cultist?
‘There it is.’
Restoring herbivory was not the end.
After learning it, you had to go through the process of mastering it through training.
There is no way that you will be able to use technology that you are not familiar with in real life when you need it.
‘I don’t know why traces of Wolhwajang remain in a place like this.’
The question about him was the second problem.
The causal relationship was probably good.
I just pray earnestly in my heart that the arrangements left by Wolhwajang officials for the latter remain.
“Here.”
“It looks like an ordinary cliff.”
“Tighten your eyesight and take a closer look. “You will be able to find artificially engraved patterns.”
After looking around frantically for a while, I opened my eyes wide.
As Cheon Ga-ryeong said, there was a pattern symbolizing Wolhwajang.
A huge sword mark carved into the wall.
It was dug so deep and wide that even though it had weathered over time, the traces remained intact.
‘The mark was so big that it was barely visible to the eye.’
I knew it the moment I saw it.
The person who carved this sword mark is an absolute expert.
There was no way that an ordinary warrior could perform such a feat.
The cut surface was too smooth to suggest that multiple workers had been hired to dig out the wall.
‘Amazing.’
Perhaps an absolute master produced by Wolhwajang visited Haenam Island and carved a mark on the wall.
Otherwise, I couldn’t explain the sight that came into view.
“How on earth did you discover this?”
“I just came out to get some air.”
“……?”
The sight of Cheon Ga-ryeong awkwardly passing over the topic could not have seemed so awkward.
You went out to see the sea alone?
Is that also a rough terrain that is not easily visited by people?
‘Is there something gloomy?’
I wanted to ask why, but somehow I didn’t think I should.
I turned my head, touched the wall, and muttered.
‘The expression ‘a cow catches a mouse while backing up’ is probably used in times like this.’
I never thought I would find traces of Wolhwajang in Haenam.
It was difficult to suppress my anticipation.
Cheon Ga-ryeong and I, who were moving along the road, soon started moving along the wall and closely examining the sword marks.
How much time has passed?
“here! “There is an entrance!”
Cheon Ga-ryeong called me in a voice full of power.
I approached her in the blink of an eye using the method of different forms.
Perhaps because the distance was too close, she was startled and took a step back to increase the distance.
‘her.’
I sighed inwardly.
There was a cave that could barely fit one person through.
The entrance was cleverly hidden by the rugged surrounding terrain.
It seemed like no one would be able to find it unless they looked closely.
Stepping inside the cave, I looked around and nodded in satisfaction.
Although the entrance was naturally formed, there were definitely traces of human intervention inside.
Mokwonse did not have any special equipment like my secret space.
Since it was a place you couldn’t find unless you knew about it in the first place, they didn’t seem to have paid much attention to security.
Before long, a large cavity appeared.
I stood in the center of the community with excitement, looked around, and then muttered with a puzzled expression.
‘what.’
Traces of previous passengers were left here and there.
There are traces of an intruder who came here for a bad purpose.
It didn’t seem like very long time had passed since I had been there.
‘……no way.’
