Regressor’s Life After Retirement - Chapter 163

—————————————

[Group call]

Manbaknogoe looked around He said with a helpless face.

“Isn’t this Josa-dong?”

The place they arrived was a cave where the first Cheonma Cult, who established the Celestial Demon Cult, is said to have entered here 500 years ago.

Because it is a sacred place, entry is restricted to ordinary believers.

“huh. “Grandpa, you can hide here.”

Hearing Lily’s words, the old man sighed lightly.

I thought there was something I could confidently bring in…

“Okay. If it were here, I wouldn’t want to search right away. But it’s only a matter of time.”

There were few better places to hide than here.

When Manbaknogei mentioned another location, Lily smiled meaningfully.

“Other people will never find us. Because….”

Kyaaa!

Abraxas, who was wrapped around Lily’s neck, landed on the floor, crawled across the floor, and disappeared into the darkness.

And after a while

, googung googung goong-!

The floor of the cave opened and a space I had never seen before appeared.

“What is this…”

The old man opened his mouth in shock.

There was a space hidden in Josa-dong that even the head of the Heavenly Demon Cult didn’t know about!

Lily put her hands on her hips and said with a proud expression.

“Voila! “Ass and I found a secret room!”

[I was the only one who found what I was looking for?]

Kyaaa!

Abraxas raised his head and protested, but Lily pretended not to hear and grabbed the old man’s arm.

“Get in quickly!”

“That’s right. I get it.”

A stone statue of Cheonmajosa that Daein found in North Korea.

There was a place marked on the map that came out of it, and that place was Josa-dong.

The great man had asked them to investigate this place in detail.

[I wouldn’t have made a map and marked it for no reason. Please help me find anything hidden inside.]

Coming to Josa-dong was easy. Lily was worshiped as an incarnation of God by the Heavenly Demons, and this place was also one of the shrines that worshiped the God.

Lily, who was going down the stairs to the basement first, looked back at the old man and said.

“Watch out for the stairs! Would you like me to hug you again, Grandpa?”

“…done. “I can at least walk alone.”

As two people – and a snake – go down the stairs, there’s a coo goo goo from behind! The door closed with a sound.

Originally, in the hidden space under Josa-dong, ferocious organ Jinsik and techniques were installed so that no one could enter.

Arrows suddenly rain down from the wall,

illusions spread out and ghosts appear from all directions,

deadly poisonous smoke spews out, etc.

The person who created this place placed several devices to prevent those with limited ability from gaining prowess.

But

yaaaa!

[No matter how great a human is, they are of no use to me.]

In front of a dragon full of intellectual curiosity, all the techniques and techniques were useless.

The last time I came here, Abraxas had disarmed all the traps here as if solving a puzzle.

[It was quite fun to see some types for the first time.]

Thanks to this, the two people – and the snake – did not encounter any traps while coming down the stairs.

After coming down the last stairs, the old man stared blankly at the scene unfolding before his eyes.

“I can’t believe it…”

The legacy of the Cheonmajosa that no one had been able to find until now was there.

On one side, the gold and silver treasures that filled the wall were sparkling, and on

the other side, there was a small pond, and around the pond were growing spiritual plants that gave off magical energy.

‘Even snow ginseng that is hundreds of years old and Emperor Hasao mushrooms…?’

The area around the pond could be said to be a field of elixirs, but now I see that the water in the pond is no ordinary groundwater.

“Heh heh heh…”

The old man just laughed. There was no longer any power to be surprised.

…I thought there wouldn’t be one.

“Grandfather. Come this way!”

Lily took Manbaknogei’s hand and led him inside. The road was long and became narrower as we went in.

And at the end of it all, a mummy was sitting in Taesa Temple with her eyes closed.

“…….”

Mira was a large man. His facial features were almost the same, but his eyes were quietly closed and he was in a state of deep sleep.

There was a sword and a book on his lap.

“no way…!”

The moment he saw the mummy, Manbaknogoe trembled as if he had been struck by lightning.

dump.

Manbaknogoe knelt in front of Mira.

“I didn’t believe you when you said you were on a ship, but… you were in a place like this?”

Even if no one explained it to him, he knew who this mummy was.

“The first head of the Heavenly Demon Church….”

The first Heavenly Demon Church leader who founded the Heavenly Demon Church on this land.

After bowing with utmost respect, Manbaknoge stood up.

At that time, the title of the book on Mira’s lap caught my eye.

[The Record of the Heavenly Demon]

It was the first record left in the martial arts world by a man called the Heavenly Demon.

***

The next day.

“sorry. “I haven’t found it yet.”

At the report of the water guard, the face of the Heavenly Demon Cult was distorted like a demon.

“Are you saying you are all blind! “It makes sense that you can’t find an old man with a broken Dantian!”

-Kwakwakwakwakwa!

The demonic energy that exploded from the body of the Heavenly Demon Cult pressed down on the body of the guardian angel. Blood flowed from the guard’s nose and ears.

“Kkeuk….”

The body of the water guard, who was kneeling on one knee, gradually went down like an insect being trampled by a foot.

The veins on his red-faced face bulged, and his eyeballs bulged out as if they were about to fall out due to external pressure.

“…Master. “Please stop.”

The person who saved him was the elder who was with the Heavenly Demon Cult leader. After glaring at the Great Elder, the leader dispersed the demonic energy that was weighing down the guardian angel.

“Huh, huh, huh….”

The guard was barely able to catch his breath. The cult leader looked down at him with disdain.

“A guy who can’t even get away with it….”

“I’m sorry for my sin.”

The leader wanted to break this idiot’s head right away. However, Chimi barely suppressed her desire to live and gave orders again.

“I’ll give you one more chance. You can look into the school’s ban again. “Be sure to bring that old man before me.”

“Jonmyeong!”

The new form of the water guard melted into the darkness like a shadow.

Stealth techniques at the peak expert level. However, even such an expert could not withstand the energy of the previous religious leader even for a moment.

“Whew…”

The Heavenly Demon Cult leader took a deep breath to calm the ever-increasing feeling of death and looked back at the Grand Elder next to him.

“Elder. “Did you break out the old man?”

Those eyes were fierce and rough, as if they would tear the opponent into thousands of pieces.

The Great Elder shook his head with a dark expression.

“You know very well that I didn’t do it, right?”

“…….”

The leader had the elder Cheon Mu-geuk imprisoned in prison, then called him to Gyojujeon and kept him under surveillance until now.

‘But you never know. ‘What kind of trick did this old lady use to let Cheonmugeuk escape?’

Very few people knew that the leader of the Jeonjeon Dynasty was within the Heavenly Demon Church.

The Heavenly Demon Cult himself and the Grand Elder.

And the water guards who are the shadow of the religious leader.

‘There is no need to know any more.’

There is no need for two suns in the sky. There must be only one sun, and it has already been decided who that sun will be.

‘I would rather have killed him on the spot…’

There was one reason why he couldn’t do that.

Crash!

The leader gritted his teeth and glared at the elder.

‘If only this old man hadn’t stopped me back then!’

The feeling of death rose to my head and my hands naturally gained strength.

The leader took a deep breath and slowly relaxed his grip.

“Whoa….”

“Master? Are you okay?”

“Of course.”

‘You have to endure it. ‘Because we still need this old man.’

If it had been any other elder, he would have killed him and Cheon Mu-geuk on the spot and destroyed all evidence.

But the Great Elder could not do that.

A person who has been at the center of power in the Heavenly Demon Church for 100 years.

It has had a tremendous impact on many places over a long period of time, and its martial arts skills are so strong that it cannot be easily killed.

To put it bluntly, the Great Elder was a powerful person who could split the Heavenly Demon Church in two if he wanted to.

‘Could it be that this old man is in cahoots with Cheonmugeuk and is trying to kick me out?’

Once such suspicions began to arise, the leader became suspicious of all of the elder’s words and actions.

‘Should I just kill him?’

Tsutsutsutsu!

The cult leader’s eyes gradually filled with demonic power. My heart was beating fast and I was very thirsty.

I have to drink blood to quench this thirst….

“Sir! “Are you okay?”

The leader came to his senses after hearing the elder’s words containing his inner strength.

“…It’s okay. “I’m a little tired.”

The leader slowly took a breath. The magic energy absorbed from Cheonmugeuk ran wild. Because of this, I get excited and emotional more easily than usual.

The Great Elder said.

“You’ve been through something big, so it’s natural that you’re tired. Get some rest. “I’ll just leave now.”

“…….”

The religious leader thought about arresting the elder, but decided not to. Instead, I thought I would follow him later.

“I understand. “Please come in.”

The Great Elder bowed his waist and took a few steps back. And then he turned around and tried to go to the battle of Gyoju.

At that time, the Heavenly Demon Cult leader called the Great Elder again.

“…Grand Elder.”

“yes. “Master.”

The Great Elder turned around with a stern expression.

The two people’s gazes collided in the air. There were no sparks, but something even more terrifying than that was happening.

The religious leader spoke in a gloomy voice.

“Do not betray my trust. “I believe you know well what the path is for the Church.”

“…I have devoted my whole life to Protestantism.”

Did you feel a little reassured by those words?

The Heavenly Demon Cult slowly took his breath, which was heavier than usual, and nodded.

“Phew… okay. “Just go out now.”

“Rest.”

thud!

The expression on the face of the Great Elder who went to the Battle of Gyoju was serious.

‘The cult leader’s condition is worse than expected.’

There were already several signs showing that the coin shortage was deepening.

Breathing harder than usual.

Magi can’t control herself properly.

Even the murderous intent rises up suddenly.

‘Should we really leave the cult leader who is in deep despair like that?’

The religious leader ordered that the fact be kept secret. However, the elder had no choice but to hesitate.

As I said to the religious leader earlier, he has dedicated his life to the Heavenly Demon Church.

Not for the religious leader, but for the Church of the Heavenly Demon.

The Great Elder recalled what the old Manbak said just before he fell.

“Did you tell me to run away….”

How could he have said such a thing?

The man who knows best that he can’t do that.

‘I’m confused. I don’t know what to do…’

The elder let out a long sigh and walked down the corridor. His mind was filled with many thoughts.

It was then. The sound of a familiar yet unfamiliar voice was heard.

[Great Elder, Grandpa!]

The Great Elder stopped in place and glared into space. He guessed exactly the direction the sound came from.

The Great Elder said, raising his energy.

“Who are you? “Reveal yourself.”

There was a slight gap in the air, and Lily stuck out her face.

[Shh! It’s me.]

“Ma Mazda…? Could you speak to us?”

The elder was embarrassed and did not know what to do. Lily put her lips to her finger and sent a sound.

[Shh! I shouldn’t be caught out here. So please pretend not to know!]

I don’t know what it is, but the elder nodded.

[And take this!]

Lily threw something and the elder caught it without a second thought.

It was an unidentifiable palm-sized object.

The Great Elder looked down at it blankly. Lily, who had already become invisible again, sent a message.

[If you say that into your ear.]

“Yes? “You’re talking here…”

At that moment, Manbaknogoe’s voice was heard through the communicator.

[Clark. Hey. Are you running around with sweaty soles trying to catch me?]

“…Brother!”

The Great Elder almost screamed. Fortunately, there was no sign of anyone else other than Lily around.

The Great Elder quickly left the room and asked in a low voice.

“Where are you now?”

[why? If you find out, are you going to come catch me?]

“This is not the time to joke around! “Where on earth have you gone with that body?”

[…What happened to the religious leader? It must be very unstable because it absorbs my demon energy.]

“As expected, you know.”

[Clark. [They say I know the best about coinage.]

The elder told Manbaknoge about the unstable state of the religious leader that he had seen.

After listening to the story to the end, Manbak Noge sighed softly.

[okay. It’s just as I expected….]

“I don’t know what to do. If we leave it like this, the sect leader will be possessed by his demons and do not know what he will do, and if we let the truth be known, if the Murim Alliance finds out, they may seize the opportunity and attack our church….” [The best thing is to fix the sect leader’s evil spirit and not start a war

. I guess.]

“Is that as easy as it sounds? “Either one is difficult.”

[Clark. I thought so too until yesterday… Maybe it’s possible.]

“Yes?”

Manbaknogoe paused for a moment and then spoke.

[I’ll introduce you to a person.]

“A person?”

After a while, a new voice came from the communicator. It was the voice of a young man I had heard for the first time.

[Hello?]

The elder asked in a wary voice.

“Who is that again?”

The man on the other end of the communicator answered.

[Ah, I am the landlord. Currently, I am Danju of the Murim Alliance’s Death Demon Squadron.]

The Death Demon Squadron.

Even just from the name alone, it was an organization that seemed to have reserved the position of Cheonma Shinyo and Cheolcheon Support.

“Why is the Murimmaeng bastard…!”

Manbaknogoe added a word to lighten the mood.

[He is my student.]

“Yes…?”

[It just so happened to be like that.]

And so, secret three-party talks began ahead of the Great War.
