Possessing a Murim Clan’s Youngest Son - Chapter 55
Episode 55. I ask, where are you now?
花開不同賞 (Hwagaebudongsang)
Even when the flowers bloom, we cannot enjoy them together.
花落不同ゲ (Hwarakbudongbi)
Even when the flowers fall, we cannot grieve together.
欲問相思處 (Yokmunsangsacheo) I
ask Where are you now?
(花開花落時)
At this time when the flowers are blooming and the flowers are fading,
I decide to pluck the grass
and weave it with one heart and
send it to you
(Jang Yujieum).
春愁正斷絶 (Spring Sujeong Seoljeol)
My heart is boiling with the sadness of spring.
春bird 復哀吟 (Spring Bird Bokaeum)
The spring bird is coming again and crying
‘Oh oh oh. I don’t know much about poetry, but… it seems to contain something very profound and earnest.’
In fact, this poem is a passage from lines 1 and 2 of the poem Spring Mangsha (春望詞) by Xuedo (薛濤), a female poet of the Tang Dynasty.
Han Ibi had no idea about such a background, but somehow, she felt that some kind of sorrowful feeling was conveyed to her.
That sad, heartbreaking feeling of not being able to speak warmly to your loved one and just spinning around and missing him…
‘Could it be that he’s an old Murim master who was consumed by unrequited love? I wanted to express my feelings, but I could never express them, so I came to this deserted place and expressed them in poetry…’
But then another thought occurred to me.
‘Eugh. Then what should I do? It’s meaningless. ‘It’s meaningless.’
To Han Ibi, the meaningless writing was just a scribble scribbled on a rock instead of paper.
‘Damn, you hit the ball today too.’
Han Ibi grumbled, but her eyes filled with the beautiful scenery of this place.
Now is the time to leave.
If I’m bored later and want to change my mood, I’ll come by myself.
‘Well, I couldn’t find the opportunity, but I did find a tourist attraction… so it might be useful someday. haha.’
Thinking wildly, he crouched down again and squeezed himself into the gap between the huge cliffs.
The light was blocked again.
It was a path leading outside through a cave that was not a cave.
By the time we almost reached the exit.
– Kuooo!
It sounded like a huge dog growling.
‘What is this?’
Just by listening to it, the ‘anger’ of the being creating the sound seemed to be transmitted throughout the mountain.
Han Ibi had a strange thought and hurried her steps without realizing it.
And just as the scene outside comes into view.
Han Ibi’s pupils couldn’t help but dilate greatly.
Surprisingly, the person responsible for the angry roar was a huge bear that looked to be twice the size of a human.
Bears in modern times have been greatly glorified.
Maybe it’s because of the cartoons I watched as a child or the teddy bears I cuddle with while sleeping.
However, in reality, bears are fearsome beasts that rival tigers and lions… no, in fact, they have a high probability of defeating them if they meet and fight in the wild.
Anyone who actually encounters a bear is overwhelmed by the difference in its size, majesty, and great power.
Han Ibi was in that state right now.
But…
it seemed like there was someone else who got on the bear’s nerves.
An old man with white hair and a kinky appearance.
Saliva was leaking out from between the old man’s lips because of fear… The
huge beast was slashing the old man’s face with its sharp claws as if it were going to rip it to shreds.
Then, without any further thought, Han Ibi took out her dagger and activated her secret sword technique.
As expected, it was a wildly fluctuating cross mark.
The basics of sniping are, of course, headshots, but now there was no time to aim properly.
Swish!
Along with the sound of cutting through the wind, the dagger obtained from the Charyeok wizard cut through the air.
However, the giant bear also quickly opened its body as if it sensed danger with the instinct of a beast.
Sigh!
As a sound was heard, Han Ibi’s dagger made a scratch on the bear’s side.
– Come on! Make it up!
It must be quite painful.
The giant bear roared in a much more angry voice than before, then ‘poofed’ and turned its gaze towards the direction that attacked it.
The bear’s eyes seem to be burning red.
Ah… ahaha.
Only then did Han Ibi realize what she had done.
A heavy responsibility to bear when your body moves faster than your head.
‘I felt that way during the Nine Heavenly Se incident, so why am I like that again?’
The bear, which was standing on both feet, was running at full speed, lowering its upper body to the ground at that moment.
Han Ibi has experienced many crises while fighting with experts, but… this is a bit…
‘Fighting with a bear, this isn’t right!’
Schwak!
The bear’s front paw was rushing towards Han Ibi’s chest.
A visual that feels faster and fiercer than any other expert’s technique.
Han Ibi had no choice but to do a light attack and roll over.
A huge bear’s claws barely graze your hair.
At the same time, the bear rushes towards the fallen Han Ibi like a thunderbolt!
‘Ahh! Who on earth called a bear a foolish bear? It’s really fast without any countermeasures.’
A tooth as big and sharp as the size of a giant bear plunged mercilessly into Han Ibi’s head.
It seemed like he was going to tear off the entire head in one mouth and swallow it.
Han Ibi, who had fallen, quickly got up by doing a somersault backwards.
Then, the huge bear spun around with smooth and nimble steps that no human could possibly do, and followed Han Ibi’s path.
– Ugh!
The front paw of the huge bear strikes again!
Han Ibi came to her senses and moved her body to the side. But I think the timing is a little late.
Squeak!
Blood splatters along with the sound of clothes being torn.
Han Ibi suffered a wound on her left shoulder.
– Kueng! Guaaaah!
The bear seemed even more excited when it saw the blood.
The guy swung his front foot five times in a row as if he were an expert in the art of longing.
Han Ibi couldn’t come to her senses and just kept jumping to avoid it.
‘Huh… If it’s an internal skill, there won’t be a single bit… It’s like he’s a master of external skills that goes beyond imagination… Yikes!’
Once again, the giant bear’s front claws scratched Han Ibi’s chest.
Blood stains spraying again.
At that moment, Han Ibi was sitting on the floor with her hands behind her back.
However, the next attack was resumed mercilessly.
The bear’s vibrant teeth come in a variety of natural colors! Those big teeth!
‘Wait a moment… If only I could buy a moment…’
Then it occurred to me.
‘Ah… perhaps!’
While Han Ibi was rolling around to avoid it, she took out a strange sword from her pocket.
‘yes. ‘It’s there.’
The attribute of ‘ice fighting’ that appears in the status window.
Perfect!
A loud sound rang out.
Han Ibi inserted a strange sword into the tooth of a huge bear.
As soon as the bear bit the strange sword, Han Ibi grabbed it with all her might.
Then blood spurted out.
The wound was inflicted on the bear’s mouth.
A moment of confusion appeared in the bear’s eyes.
A welcome madwoman also appeared.
Tiring!
[The ice fighting attribute has been demonstrated. Stiffness occurred for ‘5 seconds.’]
‘What? what! Only 5 seconds? It’s just a flashy name, but it’s not much different from before.’
A huge teddy bear that flops and falls down on its seat.
But where is the time for this?
No matter how great it is, it is ultimately a beast. Although he is said to be born fast, how can he catch up with a martial arts figure who learned light engineering?
Han Ibi stood up with all her might and ran towards the herbalist.
The herbalist stayed there, dumbfounded.
Han Ibi quickly grabbed the herbalist and carried him on his shoulder.
So the old herbalist clung to Han Ibi’s shoulder, shaking.
– Ugh! Guuuuu!
At that time, the roar of a beast was heard from behind.
As soon as the stiffness time ended, he was running towards Han Ibi, who was running away.
Han Ibi glanced back and was startled.
‘It was a mistake to underestimate how a beast could catch a martial artist. admit! That crazy bear is really… ah…’
That’s right.
Han Ibi was showing off her extreme behavior to the extreme, but since she was carrying an adult, her speed was slower than before.
On the other hand, the bear, which had always lived with Mt. Cheongseong as its front yard, was so angry that a leopard could fly away.
Han Ibi, who was running aimlessly, said that even though she was not in a hurry, a feeling of resentment arose.
“oh my. Elderly. “What did you do to offend such a crazy bear?”
The old man managed to speak even though he was shaking on top of Hanibi.
“oh my. I’m crazy. “I touched that guy who was sleeping quietly with his eyes rolled back as if he was about to die.”
Then Han Ibi was so shocked that her eyes popped out.
“no! What did you say? “You touched a sleeping bear first?”
“exactly. “I thought hitting him in the head with a rock would do the trick.”
Han Ibi said while jumping up.
“No, why?”
But the old man just kept mumbling as if he was talking to himself.
“I didn’t know it would be this bad even if it were a spiritual thing. I thought the story of Pacheonung (破天熊) was just a legend…”
“Pacheonung?”
“exactly. That guy is a hybrid of twelve different types of bears, including the panda bear…”
Now that I think about it, some of his fur is gray like a cow’s…
“…he inherits only the strengths of all species. The skin is as hard as cast iron, the movements are as agile as a tiger, and the teeth are the ivory of an elephant…” “
Oh, that’s it. First, we have to run away quickly, so please be quiet. Because it’s crazy. “If you knew so well, why on earth did you hit the head of the sleeping lion, or rather, the sleeping bear?”
The old herbalist then sighed deeply and muttered again.
“All of this happened because of greed. Who will you blame? “I was trying to make a lot of money in an instant, but I ended up losing my life…”
Han Ibi, who was running with all her might to avoid the crazy bear that was wondering if it was Pacheonwoong or something, had her ears twitching.
This is the part where you mutter ‘a lot of money’ at one point.
Ebi Han said.
“Did you just say ‘big money’?”
“exactly.”
“Is there some crazy, wealthy person who wants to keep him as a pet?”
“Is that possible? But…”
The old man wiped his dry lips with his tongue and continued.
“That bastard’s phlegm is truly one of the highest-quality medicinal herbs.”
“Woongdam… this?”
In Han Ibi’s mind, a poor bear trapped in a farm in the Korean countryside, sucking bile, appeared and disappeared for a moment.
“exactly. “Pacheonwoong’s Ungdam has a different level of effectiveness than existing Ungdam.”
At that moment, Han Ibi’s eyes sparkled.
“Is it… expensive?”
The old man quickly answered as if saying it was just nagging.
“Of course not. All herbalists are anxious because they can’t find it. Although it is a legend… If an ordinary person eats it, they will live long and healthy, their eyes will become bright as a child, and if a martial arts expert eats it, their internal energy will improve and they will have clairvoyance….” “It’s half and half.
”
“what?”
“Let’s split it in half.”
“What is that…”
“Oh my. Thank goodness I am a very conscientious person. The old man found that guy and gave me information… and I found that guy…”
The old herbalist’s eyes widened and he stuttered.
“ji… “I’m going to catch that Pa Cheon-woong now…”
At that moment, Han I-bi manifested a leap forward and stepped on two large trees.
“Ugh!”
The old man felt his body rising into the air against his will.
This is because Han Ibi was climbing a tree while carrying herself.
The top of a tree with huge branches scattered all over the place.
Han Ibi immediately placed the old man there.
The old man said, his face turning earthy.
“What are you doing now…”
But before there was even time to talk, Han Ibi fell down again.
“One blow, one blow… one blow, one kill….”
Below him, Pacheonwoong was seen chopping down a tree while howling in anger.
With each blow, the tree shook as if it would be uprooted.
The old man’s body was shaking to the beat as if there had been an earthquake.
