The Constellations Are My Disciples - Chapter 206
◈ Episode 206. The immortal was astonished (4)
A room made entirely of ebony.
“Are you crazy?”
“I don’t know what the hell you’re talking about.”
Zhong Liquan stared at the Labyrinth Lord who was reacting to Zhong Liquan’s words.
Although he covered his face with a blind, perhaps because he didn’t want his true intentions revealed when he talked to other guys, Zhong Liquan was able to read his thoughts without difficulty.
Because he was better at reading magic waves than anyone else.
‘You really don’t know.’
Therefore, Zhong Li Quan was able to realize that Migongju, who was answering his words, knew nothing about the situation below.
If he had been aware of what was happening below, he wouldn’t have reacted like this, and above all, the magic wave wouldn’t have been able to remain this calm.
‘If I had known this fact, the magic waves would have run wild.’
After thinking that, Zhong Liquan thought for a moment as he looked at Migongju, who was still looking at him as if he didn’t know what to do.
“I’ll get out of this.”
He soon said that.
“…what?”
Labyrinth Lord asked with a puzzled expression, but Zhong Liquan spoke once again with a calm expression.
“Did you say you would get out of here?”
“…Surely you were defeated by the Maverick below?”
A labyrinth filled with faint doubts.
However, in response to that question, Zhong Liquan smiled and spoke.
“what? What about Zhongliquan, who can be said to be the leader of these eight great Zens? Are you saying that you were defeated by just one Irregular?”
A voice mixed with laughter and anger.
Migongju kept quiet, and Zhong Liquan turned around and spoke without hesitation.
“Anyway, I’m out of this job.”
Jong Ra-gwon, who spoke in a completely different tone from when he first spoke to the Labyrinth Lord, did not walk away as if he had finished what he had to say, but instead used the amulet to disappear in front of the Labyrinth Lord.
“…What the hell is it?”
Migongju looked at Zhong Liquan and frowned as if she couldn’t understand.
No matter how much he thought about it, Labyrinth Ju couldn’t find a reason why the watchman was acting like that towards him.
‘What happened in the labyrinth?’
Migungju thought so, but quickly shook her head.
If something had happened in the labyrinth, Zhong Liquan probably wouldn’t be here right now.
So why on earth did Zhong Liquan just give up on the request and disappear?
That too.
‘It’s as if we’ll never see each other again…’
Basically, the watchman shows the minimum level of courtesy to the labyrinth owners.
Of course, the etiquette observed by each watchman is different, but in any case, the framework of minimum etiquette is maintained.
The reason why the watchmen are so polite to the Labyrinth Lords is not because the watchmen are weaker than the Labyrinth Lords, but because the Labyrinth Lords are customers.
Customers who need a watchman.
However, the way Zhong Liquan showed was as if he no longer had the courtesy to respect Lord Labyrinth.
It’s as if they don’t want to work with you anymore.
‘Why on earth?’
Labyrinth Lord who asks herself questions.
However, Labyrinth-ju could not come up with an answer hastily, so after thinking for a while, Labyrinth-ju soon.
“Did you call me?”
I called Changju.
It was Changju who immediately looked down at Zhongliquan into the labyrinth, and it was Changju who checked the current situation within the labyrinth through Bian.
That’s why Mi-gung-ju asked Chang-ju about Jong-ri-kwon.
After thinking about it for a moment, Changju bowed his head and answered.
“sorry. “I haven’t been able to confirm the fight between the Watchman and the Maverick.”
“what…?”
“That time of year happened to be when I was giving a report to the Lord of the Labyrinth…”
“Tsk.”
Migungju frowned at Changju’s words, but didn’t say anything.
Because it was Migung-ju himself who called Chang-ju to receive the report in the first place.
Migung-ju, who knew very well that getting angry at him now would only end up spitting in his face, looked at Chang-ju and continued asking questions.
“So what was it like before then?”
“If you say before….”
“You mean before the watchman went down into the labyrinth. “We would have been together then, right?”
Labyrinthism question.
Changju closed his mouth and thought as if he was organizing his thoughts, and then answered.
“There was nothing unusual about the watchman, as I reported a month ago. The only unusual thing is that the watchman did not enter through the passage, but used his own power to enter.”
“…You’re saying you used a talisman to get in, right?”
“you’re right.”
The founder agrees.
Migungju continued to think for a while, but soon frowned as no proper thoughts came to mind.
Migungju thought for a while and then gave an order to Changju.
“Changju.”
“yes.”
“First, check the secretariat to determine the condition of the Irregular and report it. “As quickly as possible.”
“All right.”
At the same time as he answered that, Changju turned again and headed towards the portal leading to Bian.
Migungju looks at Changju like that.
‘…That’s annoying.’
He frowned and sighed.
####
Mushinmun in Daegong-dong.
There, for the first time in a long time, the four disciples of God of War gathered together.
““….””
He remained silent.
There is only one reason why they remain silent.
The reason is because of the fight between Jong Li-kwon and Kim Joo-hyuk that took place not long ago.
The disciples all watched the fight.
Starting from how Kim Joo-hyuk fought against Zhong Liquan, to how he was defeated by Zhong Liquan.
And the impressions of the disciples who saw such a battle were all the same.
‘Overwhelming battle.’
Kim Joo-hyuk’s disciples thought so after watching his battle with Zhong Li-quan.
No, it was strange that I didn’t think that way in the first place.
In that fight, Kim Joo-hyuk actually lost so helplessly that it would not be an exaggeration to say that he lost without being able to do anything.
However, the reason the disciples were shocked was not just because Kim Joo-hyuk lost.
Rather, the fact that Kim Joo-hyuk lost was definitely a shock to them, but it was not that big of a shock.
Rather, the reason they were shocked was because they could not do anything in the fight against Zhong Liquan.
They were watching Zhong Liquan’s fight.
In fact, he had accumulated enough magic stones to be able to manifest himself as he was if he had the chance.
Nevertheless, the reason why no one appeared as the true spirit.
It was not because they were afraid of the risks of manifesting, but because they realized that manifesting right now would not help them at all.
Of course, if Kim Joo-hyuk was about to die, they would have appeared without hesitation, but strangely enough, Zhong Li-quan defeated his teacher and just passed away.
Therefore, the disciples did not necessarily manifest themselves, but that feeling of helplessness continued to remain in their minds.
“…this feels like shit.”
Jiral, who had been silent for a while and frowning as if he was not happy with the situation, opened his mouth.
“Shouldn’t we be a little stronger too? uh?”
Damn’s words.
Burigamyeon spoke with a frown on his face.
“If that were the case, would we be doing this?”
“you’re right. “Right now, even though we want to become stronger, we can’t… I know this, but it makes me feel very depressed.”
Tugui speaks next.
Jiral frowned as if he was annoyed, but soon closed his mouth without saying anything.
They knew that they could not become stronger, and furthermore, that they could not be of any help to their teacher in their current state.
Of course they weren’t playing.
In order to help Kim Joo-hyuk, they raised everyone to the point where they could support Kim Joo-hyuk by attaching themselves to their own contractors, except for Jiral, who did not have a contractor.
And until recently, their efforts had seen some light.
“….”
However, the problem is that in the end, raising contractors does not help in such a situation at all.
so that.
“….”
Kim Joo-hyuk’s students continued to worry for several hours after that.
####
Five days since then.
Kim Joo-hyuk’s discharge from the hospital ended faster than expected.
No, since Kim Joo-hyuk had already received treatment from a recovery contractor from the time he entered the hospital, virtually all of his wounds had already been healed, so it is a bit absurd to say that it ended quickly.
“Huh…”
Anyway, after being discharged from the hospital, Kim Joo-hyuk did not immediately go to the training room, but instead stayed at home and continued the thoughts he had been thinking about since 5 days ago.
That thought is the thought of one’s own identity.
“Tsk.”
Of course, Kim Joo-hyuk also knew.
Even if you think about it like this at a time when you don’t have much information, nothing in particular will come out.
In fact, rather than continuing to worry like this, it is more efficient to take the elixir that Zhong Liquan gave and disappear and accelerate your training even more.
“….”
In fact, Barche and Mu-gwang were out in the training room.
In the case of Mu Gwang, ‘Even if the teacher is defeated, the master’s martial arts is still heavenly! If you become just a little stronger, you can destroy such a Taoist master!’ he said, and continued his training again.
In Barce’s case, he said that he was not able to control his strength the same way he used to, so he went out to train even though Kim Joo-hyuk was not around, hoping to control his strength again.
Kim Joo-hyuk is the only one who is currently not going to the training room.
“Hmm…”
So Kim Joo-hyuk, who had been silent at home for a long time, soon gathered his thoughts and stood up to end his worries.
‘Let’s put our worries aside first.’
Kim Joo-hyuk neatly erased the things that kept popping up in his head.
Honestly, when I think about it calmly, what he needs right now is training.
‘With Yeo Dong-bin and Zhong Li-quan, something happened and it ended well, but there’s no way it will happen again.’
Kim Joo-hyuk clearly knew that some element of luck had contributed to Yeo Dong-bin and this encounter.
In short, Kim Joo-hyuk escaped the crisis through luck rather than skill.
‘That’s not right.’
It’s good that luck can be a plus to some extent.
It was also nice that all situations were resolved through luck.
However, it was not good to be in a situation where everything was based on luck.
That’s the same thing as saying that if you’re not lucky, you’ll become a person who can’t do anything.
That’s why Kim Joo-hyuk got up from his seat and started preparing to go to the training room.
Right after that.
“….”
Kim Joo-hyuk was now able to see a very familiar old shack.
Kim Joo-hyuk, who was looking at the wooden plank that he had become accustomed to because he had been called so often, soon turned his head and looked back.
“I brought you good news.”
“good news…?”
Kim Joo-hyuk was soon able to hear one thing from the guide who called him.
