Regressor’s Life After Retirement - Chapter 131

—————————————

[ Manbaknogoe (2) ]

Dokgojun answers that question nodded with a stern expression.

“I’m glad you know.”

“Cluck. You too have a very strong heart. The guys who reduced Geomhwangmun to ashes… I don’t know who they are, but their background must be incredible. “Aren’t you trying to scam them?”

Manpak Nogee giggled as if he was truly enjoying this conversation.

Seeing that, Dokgojun quietly raised his teacup and thought.

‘No monster. I guess I shouldn’t keep him alive for too long.’

In addition to being an excellent martial artist, Manbaknogoe was also knowledgeable and skilled in all kinds of techniques, including Jinbeop, Amulet, and Seonjutsu.

Among them, the one that Dok Go-Jun valued most was Nogoe’s soul-searching technique.

Seophonsul was a type of hypnosis that made the subject lose their senses and made them tell the truth.

‘Martial warriors with strong mental power rarely fall victim to the spirit of seophonjutsu… but the level of seophonjutsu of Manbaknogeun is on a different level.’

In the past, Dokgojun saw Manbaknogoe turn one of the black sword masters into a half-byeongsin and then use seophonsul to find out where the gold and silver treasures were hidden.

That’s why he took a risk and brought Manbaknogoe into this matter.

‘If I find out the sword emperor’s martial arts skills and erase all his memories with the Manpak Nokai’s subjugation technique, I will complete the request and gain a world-class divine skill.’

Dok Go-jun slowly savored the tea and said.

“If you don’t take risks, you gain little. why? “Are you even scared now?”

“Cluck, click, click.”

The old man of Manbak smiled softly. Instead of tea, he took a bottle of strong wine from his belt and drank it.

“Is that possible? “Thanks to you, I too will gain a world-class gift.”

“Congratulations in advance.”

“Cluck. Congratulations to you too. Shouldn’t this be alcohol, not tea? “Would you like to have a drink of this?”

“Because I don’t like alcohol.”

The two men looked at each other and smiled.

However, only they knew what was hidden in that smile.

Dok Go-jun maintained a gentle smile and looked at Manbaknogoe.

‘No monster. You know so much. And that mouth is very light.’

Dok Go-jun only brought him into this matter because he needed to use the art of sedition, but he did not trust Manbak No-goe.

Also, there were many people who knew the magic of saving money, so there was nothing good about it. Because the value is dropping.

‘Considering the affection we have had so far, I will kill you as comfortably as possible.’

Dok Go-jun lifted his teacup and covered his mouth with his hand. It was to cover the corners of the mouth that were rising without realizing it.

You can’t even imagine how bad it would be.

The fact that he, one of the hundred great masters, would die in a few days. His arrogance will kill him.

The two talked for a moment more, and then Manbaknoge left and stood up.

“Then I guess I’ll just go. “Please contact me when they arrive.”

“I won’t go far.”

Dok Go-jun sat down and said that.

The man who was walking out the door stopped for a moment, turned his head, and said.

“…I have one question.”

“Tell me.”

“Is the Moyong family connected to the Geomhwangmun Blood Death?”

The Moyong family was one of the five major families of Murim and could also be said to be a noble family of Murim.

It was also the family of the Sword Saint, the highest leader of the current political faction, and its prestige was enough to make a flying bird fall.

And the greatest power here in Liaoning was the Mo Yong family.

Dok Go-jun twitched his lips and said.

“There is no benefit in knowing it in depth.”

“her. “I’m not saying it’s not.”

“Don’t think about it for nothing. I don’t know who the client is. “I’m not interested.”

Manbaknogoe was convinced that those words were false. But he didn’t ask any more.

Because it’s not time yet.

“Cluck. Well, all I have to do is get a skill that saves money. “I guess I’ll go then.”

“Please take a look.”

After leaving the manor, Manpak Nogee walked along the path in a haphazard manner.

Late morning. Only the bluish moonlight quietly illuminated the street. The old man took out a gourd from his belt and continued to sip alcohol.

“Clark…”

That laughter sounded somewhat bitter.

***

Three days later.

The great man arrived at Liaoning with his party.

“That place.”

Ilho crouched next to Daein and pointed to the manor in the distance with his free hand.

“It’s pretty big.”

Daein slightly lifted the bamboo ribs and looked at Jangwon. The first thing that caught my eye was the signboard that said [Dokgo Sangdan].

People were busy coming and going through the open door below, and the inside seemed large enough to accommodate hundreds of people.

“I guess you make pretty good money? Just enough to disguise it as the top.”

“We actually run the upper level as well.”

“okay? Cubs. “He’s got good skills too.”

The group was all riding horses, wearing black long cloths and bamboo ribs.

Those appearances resembled the standard attire of martial artists traveling long distances, so people passing by did not pay much attention to them.

“That is the headquarters of the guys who have been chasing us all this time.”

Old Man Jin glared at Jangwon with eyes that seemed to pour out flames. Namgoonghyun was also staring at the same spot with his fist clenched.

The great man spoke to the two people who were radiating murderous spirit.

“Just calm down first. It’s still a long way until night falls, so let’s grab a drink first. No. 1. “Where is the best food here?”

“yes. Just go this way!”

Ilho took the lead with excessive obsequiousness. The group followed quietly.

And that night.

The group who took the guest washed, ate, and gathered in the master’s room.

“Let’s check the plan one last time.”

Daein had no intention of attacking the Dark Blood Group headquarters head-on.

“We will carry out the operation at 3 am. Everyone remembers their roles, right?”

Old Man Jin nodded and said.

“I will set a fire outside the manor and create a commotion to attract their attention.”

Daein took over what he said.

“Then, during the confusion, I will sneak into the manor and take out the documents inside. No. 1. “Are you sure about the internal structure of the manor?”

“Of course I will wear it. “Unless I want to lose my head…”

Ilho answered, struggling. Namgung-hyeon said, looking pitifully at his servile appearance.

“I’ll take the horse and go to the rendezvous point in advance and wait. “Take this son of a bitch too.”

“I will faithfully assist Hyeon-nim!”

“I told you not to call me by my name because it made me uncomfortable, right?”

“I’m sorry.”

Ilho lowered his head like a high treason criminal. However, his eyes were shining coldly as he looked at the floor.

‘You idiots. You will all be caught and killed here.’

Three days ago, when Jeon Seo-gu was sent to the Amhyeoldan, Il-ho announced in secret that he had been captured.

And before coming here, I wrote a new letter and put it in a secret space in the guesthouse’s bathroom.

The letter detailed the strategy that Daein’s party would carry out today.

‘Jumsoi must be taking the letter to Danju by now.’

By the time they execute their plan, the dark blood group will have dug a trap and will be fully prepared.

Maybe they could have attacked the guest house before they moved.

‘Not much time left now. It’s time to avenge this humiliation…’

Ilho glanced at Daein.

A master so amazing that it’s hard to believe that he is only under the age limit.

However, no matter how strong Daein is, he will not be able to deal with the Dark Blood Danju and the elites of the main group.

‘Amhyeoldanju is a master who can even be considered a 100-year-old master. Besides, there is also a manbaknogei. I wonder if that guy will reach the level of a teenage expert. It’s impossible to deal with both of them.’

The situation will soon turn around.

Until then, Ilho could endure as much humiliation as he could.

It was then. Daein lowered his head and tapped Ilho, who was lost in thought, on the shoulder.

“Our plan. “Did you write it all down and pass it on to your organization members?”

“Oh yes…yes?”

It was such a natural question that Ilho, who had been nodding without thinking, suddenly widened his eyes and asked again.

“What do you mean?

Ilho broke into a cold sweat as he looked at Daein’s gaze. The great man looked at him and grinned.

“As soon as you came out of the bathroom, a Jumsoi went right in. But that guy. “I learned martial arts.”

“Nowadays, even Jeomsoys use martial arts for self-defense…”

“I heard their movements are similar to yours?”

“…….”

Making excuses that didn’t work didn’t work. Ilho turned his head and looked at Old Man Jin and Namgunghyeon.

The moment Ilho saw their cold expressions, he immediately realized the reality.

‘Fuck. I was the one who was fooled. ‘They used me to spread fake information.’

The great man tapped his shoulder.

“Thank you for your hard work in guiding me here. “Thanks to you, I came here comfortably.”

“Dae Daehyeop.” Please forgive me this once. I will do anything you ask me to do…”

Wood-duk!

Daein immediately broke Ilho’s neck. The limp body fell to the side helplessly.

Then the man opened his bag and took out something.

[Doppelganger Mask]

It was an artifact brought from the continent of Gaia that changed not only the appearance but also the voice.

Ssssssut.

When the mask was placed on Ilho’s face, the mask moved as if it were alive and adjusted to fit Ilho’s face perfectly.

After that, the mask was removed and the great man put it on, and the mask began to wriggle and change the great man’s appearance.

After a while, Daein changed into the same appearance as the dead Ilho.

“iced coffee. “How’s your voice?”

“Huh…”

Old Man Jin and Nam Gung Hyeon just made blank expressions.

Although I had heard an explanation in advance, all I could say was that I was amazed at the magic I witnessed right in front of my eyes.

“It can’t even be compared to something like bast cotton. “The face, body, and hair all change in the same way.”

“Is that also an Earth technique?”

The great man scratched his chin. His beard was greasy.

“This is technology from another town, not from Earth… Well, I’ll explain that later.”

The great man moved his limbs here and there to adapt to his changed body.

It was a little awkward, but I didn’t think there would be any major problems executing the plan.

After a while, Daein, who had finished adjusting his body, looked back at the two people and said.

“Then shall we go? “To rob the bad guys.”

They moved much faster than the time given to the enemy.

***

Late night.

A man covered in blood ran into the manor. The soldiers standing guard at the main gate drew their swords and shouted.

“Who are you?”

The bloody man stopped in front of him, breathing heavily and shouting.

“Guide to Danju immediately!”

One of the warriors recognized the face.

“Ilho?”

He was the first of the three generations who left for Jilin Province.

After a while, Ilho was supported and guided to Amhyeol Danju.

“…What is going on?”

Dok Go-jun recognized Il-ho at a glance. That face, body, and voice. It was clearly Ilho.

“Why are you coming here now?”

At that moment, Dok Go-jun was holding the letter that Il-ho had sent earlier.

There are still two o’clock left until the enemies begin their action.

But why does Ilho come here looking like that?

Dok Go-jun’s composure was shaken by embarrassment and anger. Ilho, kneeling on the floor, spoke with difficulty in breathing.

“Things went wrong. Suddenly, some guys attacked the guest house…”

“Attack?”

Dok Go-jun’s eyebrow twitched. Ilho continued.

“They were trained to kill. They infiltrated the guest house and attacked us, and a fight broke out. Then Lion Sword Jin Chung took the child and ran away. In the meantime, I barely escaped…”

Ilho was out of breath and trailed off.

But that was enough to stimulate the imagination of gangsters.

‘Is there an organization other than us that is looking for them?’

I couldn’t say for sure that it wasn’t there. Because their clients are people with enormous funds and power.

Dok Go-jun looked around and shouted.

“Form a chase party with those who are quick on their feet! “I will chase you right away!”

“Jonmyeong!”

Dok Go-jun turned his head again and looked at Il-ho.

“So where did the target run away!”

“That…”

Ilho’s voice became quieter, as if speaking was becoming more and more difficult. His finger pointed in a very vague direction.

“Over there… no, over there…”

“Can’t you speak clearly!”

“Mumbling…”

Ilho mumbled, half closing his eyes. It looked like he was about to faint.

“This guy!”

Dok Go-jun reacted nervously and approached Il-ho. I was planning to get a proper answer even if it meant slapping me in the face.

The moment Dok Go-jun got two steps away from Il-ho,

whirring!

The great man stood up like lightning and stretched out his hand. His fingers were aimed at Dok Go-jun’s neck in the shape of a hook.

“dare!”

Dok Go-jun, surprised, stepped back and quickly increased his strength. At the same time, they stretched out their hands towards each other.

However, there was a big difference between a prepared surprise attack and a haphazard attack.

Pabababak!

Dok Go-jun’s wrist was broken after a few collisions.

“Ugh! “What kind of skill…”

Daein grabbed Dok Go-jun’s arm without missing the gap that appeared at that moment. Then, he went behind the other person’s back and sharply broke his arm.

Kwasik! Dok Go-jun’s right arm broke with a sound. At the same time, a scream erupted.

“Kaaak!”

In the meantime, Dok Go-jun counterattacked. I swung my left elbow and aimed at the man’s face.

However, the outcome of the fight was already too far off.

Pow! Dae-in kicked Dok Go-jun in the stomach and made him kneel on the floor.

Then he grabbed the back of his head and slammed it on the floor.

Quaaaang!

Dok Go-jun’s face was half buried in the dirt.

“Crunch, croak…”

Dok Go-jun’s movements, whose limbs were trembling, slowly subsided. It didn’t die. I just fainted.

All of this happened literally in an instant.

“Whoa…”

The great man took a deep breath and looked around.

The warriors of the dark blood group are standing blankly. Most of them had not even half drawn their swords.

The great man said to them.

“why? Are you trying to attack me?”

The warriors lost their will to fight and dropped their weapons on the floor one by one.

The great man called out to the two people who were waiting outside.

[You can come in now.]

After a while, Namgunghyeon and Old Man Jin entered the manor.

They planned to create a commotion outside if Daein’s surprise attack failed, giving Daein an opportunity to escape.

However, with Daein defeating Dokgojun, there was ultimately nothing left to do.

‘It looks like things are going to work out easily.’

Daein was satisfied. Now all I had to do was clean up this place and go back.

It was over…

“Cluck, click, click.”

Everyone’s eyes turned to the direction from which the laughter came from the eerie laughter.

On the roof of the manor. An old man with flowing white hair stood there. With the moonlight behind him, his face was as black as pitch black.

A bright yellow glow was flowing from the old man’s eyes.

“You are indeed a descendant of the Sword Emperor.”

The eyes of the old man were looking at the great man, but at the same time they were looking at the distant past.

“It’s like seeing him when he was alive…”

The moment he looked directly into the old man’s eyes, the great man felt goosebumps rising all over his body.

‘What is that monster?’

What was certain was that he was a power that could not be compared to the Dark Blood Danju.
