Childhood Friend of the Zenith - Chapter 675
I headed to the place prepared for me. A middle-aged man wearing a sword uniform welcomes me.
“It’s been a while.”
It was Beom-dong that I saw last time.
“yes. Long time no see.”
As I was greeted with an indifferent expression, Beomdong burst into laughter.
“I’m sorry for coming here so suddenly.”
He doesn’t look sorry at all, though.
“That’s right. You came just in time to eat. “I’m still hungry.”
I didn’t even say anything out of the ordinary like it was okay.
Because it wasn’t actually okay.
“I felt like I wasn’t able to introduce myself properly last time, so I came here to see you.”
“Then come a little later. Why now…”
“My name is Beomdong, the leader of the flying dragons belonging to the Maeng. “Soyeomra Sohyeop.”
“…”
Instead of showing off his frustration, he changed his expression.
This is because there was a mix of special names that I haven’t heard in a very long time.
‘Look at this?’
When I asked why Beomdong came, it seemed like he came to find out some information.
‘I found out who I am. ‘Is this it?’
Well, seven days and nights is enough time.
If you think about the intelligence department’s capabilities…
‘I don’t think they’ve discovered only the identity.’
I’m a little curious as to why I came here.
Sigh.
First, I pulled out a chair and sat down. And he said to Beomdong.
“This is Ouyangtian of the Gu family.”
“Now I finally heard my proper name. “At first, it took some time to find it because it was a broken leaf.”
Hearing Beomdong’s words, he burst into laughter.
‘This person doesn’t even think about hiding?’
Pajeolyeop is the pseudonym used when Bihyeonhwa approached him.
However, Beom-dong mentions it so openly.
It probably means that you have no intention of hiding what you tried to do in front of me.
“I was surprised. “Confucius would never have thought that Soyeom and Sohyeop were so evil.”
As I look at Beomdong quietly without answering, he continues talking.
“They once said he was a new expert who caused a stir in the midfield… but honestly, I didn’t really believe them.”
“why? Was it too absurd?”
“That’s right. He is the youngest Hwa-kyung… and he single-handedly killed Dae Madou. “It’s hard to believe.”
Half right and half wrong.
“But looking at him like this, I see that he was an even greater person.”
“Why do you keep giving rude compliments?”
“From what I found out, they said he had already exceeded the terms and conditions….”
Beom-dong seemed to be swallowing the words he was going to say later,
as his age was weighing him down.
“This is purely out of curiosity. “Are you a senior who has been rehabilitated?”
“…”
I almost spewed out while drinking the tea on the table.
“No matter how I look at it, I don’t understand that level at Sohyeop’s age.”
“I’m sure you are aware of the side effects of Banrohwandong, right?”
“I know.”
Banrohwandong is the power of a warrior’s physical age becoming younger, but his blood vessels becoming weaker and his vessels becoming smaller.
That is, unless you go through a complete metamorphosis several times. The body from my previous life can never be found again.
“In a situation where such side effects are clearly known. “What kind of idiot would do something like that?”
“That’s right.”
“A real dog, head to head, head to head. Unless you’re a stupid sea anemone…”
“Ah, I understand, you can stop.”
“If there really is a human being, he would be stupid and lacking.”
“…”
Beomdong slightly clears his throat at the sight of swearing.
I looked at it quietly and then asked a question.
“Why did you come here?”
Click.
I asked, putting down the teacup I was holding.
“If you know the information, do some more background research. “What is your intention now?”
“haha.”
Beomdong laughs.
For some reason, I felt that laughter tickling my insides.
“I’m still looking for information. Not only the Sohyup and Baekhwa Sangdan… but it was a time when many other things were involved. “The investigation is continuing.”
“But why?”
“Somehow, something came up that required me to visit Sohyeop in person.”
They say out loud that they are conducting a background investigation, but then they say there is something else they need to look into?
I was looking at Beomdong wondering what that was.
“A few strange things have happened around the small cooperative recently. “Do you know what it is?”
“Interesting. “I will listen.”
Around me?
“The first one… is about the woman who approached Sohyeop.”
“Hmm.”
I had to widen my eyes slightly at what Beomdong said.
Because I was really surprised.
“I didn’t think you would say that out loud?”
It seems like it’s about non-materialization. I never thought I would say it so openly.
“I was confident that the Sohyeop would know anyway. That’s what I found when I gathered the information. It’s amazing. “It wouldn’t have been easy for men that age to deal with it.”
Bihyeonhwa was definitely beautiful.
As Beom-dong said, the men were at a point where they couldn’t come to their senses.
only.
‘The kids around me were just overwhelmingly pretty.’
Since I had no immunity to such things, I was covered in blankets.
“How did you know? “I mean, she’s a character.”
“I didn’t really think of him as a man of character. “I just kept my distance because I was suspicious.”
I already knew everything and played with it, but of course it was a secret.
“But are you saying there was something wrong with that woman?”
I didn’t really catch him because he just ran away.
Was there something wrong?
Beomdong heard my question and looked at me quietly.
Then.
“…That’s how you’re going to come out.”
He suddenly started spouting nonsense to himself.
“It doesn’t matter.”
“What do you mean? Why are you doing this alone? Let’s get to know each other, right?”
Have you gone crazy…?
“The second thing is… people in the group are going missing one by one.”
This was my first time hearing this.
“Missing?”
“exactly. Especially…”
Beomdong narrows his eyes at me.
The color of my eyes was becoming increasingly unpleasant.
Looking into those eyes, I sighed and said to Beomdong.
“Are you doubting me?”
“Not even a suspicion. “I’m just keeping an eye on it.”
“That’s my suspicion.”
It’s absurd.
I wouldn’t have known if they were being suspected of an accident I had committed, but it was absurd to be suspected of something so unheard of.
‘Besides, I don’t think there was any particular report.’
I wonder if this may have been done by others, but there have been no such reports yet.
“That’s why he came to me because he was suspicious. “Do you mean this?”
“That’s not true. This was purely for greeting purposes… Anyway, if not today, the investigative authority will be handed down in a little while.”
‘Investigation rights?’
My eyebrow twitched at Beomdong’s words.
“In addition to the circumstances being captured.”
conditions? There are circumstances?
What kind of situation are you talking about?
The moment when that question arose.
“I think the attitude that So Yeom-ra showed me earlier will also be a problem.”
Beomdong’s eyebrows moved at what he said next.
‘I just did something.’
I saved him alive last time and sent him away, but it looks like he’s trying to get the better of me.
“To that extent, before the investigative authority comes down… I think it would be a good idea for So Yeom-ra to come directly to Maeng and be investigated.”
“It’s not something I did. Since you are under suspicion, should you go to the main office and be investigated quietly?”
“If the investigative authority comes down, it will be a hassle for both parties. Wouldn’t it be better to take it easy?”
“Wow…”
He expressed his admiration while listening to Beomdong’s story. It wasn’t an admiration for the method.
‘This bastard was the same this time too.’
At first, he spoke as if he knew information about me well, and then mentioned his position in Maeng by mentioning Maeng’s investigative authority and circumstances.
This was, in a word, a battle of spirit.
No matter how strong the warriors were, the political faction was tied to a group called the Murim League.
Even if they did just leave, there were more than one or two things that would get them into trouble if they did.
In his past life, Beomdong used to put pressure on him like this when he was working.
This was to kill the opponent’s spirit and get the job done.
‘It’s really fucking bad.’
It goes without saying, but there was no way something like that would work for me.
“That kind of thing doesn’t go out.”
Squeak!
He spat out his words and stood up.
“If you’re going to find it, why don’t you come find some evidence? You’re doing a great job. I couldn’t even eat because they said there were guests already. “I think I’ll at least sprinkle some salt on it.”
It was precious that the Great Lord came to visit in person, but there was no need to expend more effort on such an unlikely meeting.
If you just wait, he will come to you with difficulty.
Why do you keep pushing forward the line?
‘It’s useful, so I can’t hit it yet.’
It was a feeling that stimulated my patience, but I still had to endure it.
Like I said, I had to leave it alone for now.
Beomdong had to be used at a critical moment.
“It seems there were a lot of women around.”
Stand tall.
I stopped walking.
I didn’t turn my head and kept my ears open.
“It looks like there are four in total. “There are three women from a famous family… no, except for one, who is no longer with us.”
The sound rots my ears.
Should I turn my head now? No, let’s be patient.
If I turn it now, it might kill me. I think about that and try to muster up my patience.
“It appears that even the successor of the former leader is by his side.”
“…haha.”
I had no choice but to turn my head at the words I finally heard.
“So?”
“Well, it’s not that big of a deal… It looks like he’s quite friendly with the Sozers.”
“No, I mean.”
Sigh.
I pulled up the chair I was sitting on, put my hands on the table, and walked closer to Beom-dong.
“So what.”
“ha ha ha.”
Beomdong smiled as we made eye contact and spoke.
“No, I don’t mean anything. “It’s just that I think So Yeom-ra is a bit mistaken.”
“What am I misunderstanding?”
“So Yeom-ra, since he protects justice in the Murim Alliance, do you think he won’t do anything ridiculous?”
I nodded my head at Beomdong’s words.
“If so, then you are right. Meng protects justice and will not do anything that goes against it.”
While listening, I asked Beomdong.
“What do you mean by the ridiculous or outrageous things the Great Lord is talking about?”
“It means an illegal act.”
“Oh yeah. okay. Keep talking. Meng does not commit such illegal and petty acts. But?”
“It is certainly possible to do so in the name of the Meng, but recently, as members of the Meng have gone missing, situations have often arisen in which those who are uncooperative in the Meng have also suffered misfortune.”
“Bongbyeon?”
“Things like your family getting angry… or your loved ones getting hurt.”
As Beomdong continues speaking, his eyes become colder.
How can these bastards never change?
Rather, I guess that’s why it’s so comfortable.
“so?”
“So, I’m telling you this because I’m worried. “So Yeom-ra is coming out so uncooperatively… I guess something bad could happen to the important people around him.”
“So what the great lord says now.”
Click.
The hand moved and brushed the teacup.
At the same time, I can feel the presence of people behind me.
It’s an act of popularity that only I can feel.
“Don’t show off and bow your head straight. If you keep acting like that, the people around you won’t leave you alone. “Is this what you mean?”
“Hehe, you seem to have misunderstood again… This is not Meng’s position. Really….”
“Anyway, you fucking bastards.”
“…what?”
Beom-dong’s expression crumples as he bursts out with profanity that he can’t hold back.
“So Yeom-ra, what did you just say-.”
“I heard you well, so don’t ask me again. “You fucking bastard.”
It seemed like I couldn’t bear it anymore.
“The bastards of the political faction have no morals whatsoever. Sapa bastards do it openly. “These bastards can’t do evolution?”
Beom-dong also stands up at the harsh swear words.
No, I tried to wake him up.
Sigh-!
Kwaang-!
“Gagging–!!”
He grabbed Beomdong by the hair as he tried to move his body and pinned it to the table.
In the recoil, the tea from the teacup on top spills out and flows down to the floor.
Fortunately, the tabletop was not broken.
This is thanks to the fact that the tabletop was protected with strength before that.
“What the–!”
Before Beom-dong could shout anything, my fist hit Beom-dong in the face.
Kwaaang-!!
“Keueueouk!”
In shock, Beomdong’s lips burst open and several teeth popped out.
“I’m going to be so pissed off already. what? “Are you in trouble?”
“Off… dare… dare… swear.”
He slightly lifted the hair he was holding to prevent him from speaking and then brought it down again.
bang-! Bang bang!
He repeated the action and whispered back.
“Nahi.”
“Yes, master.”
“…!!”
Nahi suddenly appeared behind him and answered, and Beomdong’s eyes widened to the size of a flower lantern when he saw this.
“Close the door.”
“I follow your orders.”
As soon as the words were out, the windows and doors around me began to close one by one.
Ugh-!
As soon as all the doors closed, a miracle flowed out and filled the room.
It blocks the sound inside from going outside.
Kwaang-! bang-!
He continued to hit Beomdong’s head on the table, and only stopped when the number of times exceeded the number of two fingers.
“Shut it off….”
In the quiet room, only Beomdong’s voice is heard.
Drip… Drip…
Blood flowed from the corner of Beomdong’s mouth and covered the table.
I looked at it and said to the guy.
“I tried to get over it without touching it as much as possible. “Because it’s not the time yet.”
It’s true.
Beomdong’s usefulness has not yet arrived.
It’s a situation where I have to use it at least until after the release date.
“Why do you keep being so annoying? “I want to kill you.”
“Kuhuh….”
“Huh? I asked. “Why are you doing that?”
“Huh…Huh….”
Beomdong, who had been sobbing like that, spoke to me with trembling lips.
“…Do you think you can get over this…? “How dare you… put the Great Lord of Meng in this situation…!”
“is it so. okay. Lord. “Great Lord of Meng.”
It was hard to listen to the bullshit so I grabbed his face with my hands.
The flowing blood soaked my hands, but I didn’t care.
“I know. It’s going to be hard to get over this. “I know it too well.”
I know very well what a group called Maeng is like.
As Beom-dong said, Maeng was at least the type to make sure that internal personnel were dealt with.
If it were at the level of a great lord, it would be a different story.
“But you know.”
I looked into the guy’s eyes and said.
“If you come out like this knowing full well, you don’t care about that kind of thing. “Isn’t this a guy who has a way to make it okay to do this?”
“…!”
Beomdong’s eyes tremble for a moment.
“So don’t worry about me. “I’m good at it.”
Just worry about yourself for now. That would be good.
Thinking about that, I smiled brightly.
Tuk.
At the same time, I grabbed the glass of water next to me.
“Ugh!?”
I grabbed the guy’s cheeks, forced him to open his mouth, and stuffed him inside.
In response, Beomdong tried to spit out the glass somehow, but he did not have enough strength to escape.
“From now on, keep your eyes open. “If I close it even once, it gets lost?”
After giving Beomdong a brief warning.
He raised his fist and punched Beomdong in the cheek.
Bah! Kwasik!
“Ooooooooooo!!”
The glass shattered in Beomdong’s mouth.
