Childhood Friend of the Zenith - Chapter 688

“What on earth are you doing here?”

This was a question I asked Fazon, whom I met very late in the evening, right after I finished my training.
Pazon frowned upon hearing my question.

“Is that the first thing you ask a teacher you haven’t seen in a few days?”

“I thought it would be a good idea for you to come.”

I also hoped to arrive later if possible.
About seven days and seven nights to fifteen days…?

I just thought that would be good enough. Unfortunately, the loser came back too quickly. That too.

“However, I didn’t expect you to come so loudly.”

Very loudly.

“Did you know that Hanam was noisy all day today?”

“Isn’t Hanam originally a noisy neighborhood?”

Right.
This is the most developed neighborhood in Jungwon, so it is true that it is noisy all day long.

‘The problem is that it was much hotter than usual today.’

I looked at Fazon.
I think back to the stories I heard today that made my ears prick up.

“Are you really going to leave?”

Fighting Dragon (鬪龍) Bieuijin goes to Bimuje.

Talk about this was spreading throughout the streets of Hanam.

During the day, all I talked about was myself, but the moment it came out, it all disappeared as if being swept away by a current.

Six Dragons and Three Peaks appears in the Bimu Festival.
This is actually not very important.

It was also said that Tang So-yeol, the leader in the field, would appear immediately, and Shin Ryong was also expected to participate.

However, the reason why there was so much noise because Turyong, the least well-known of the Six Dragons and Three Peaks, was leaving was no different.

-It was revealed that Turyong was a direct disciple of Paejon, a member of the Samjon.

The disciple of Paejon, one of the Three Masters, was officially recognized.
That one story was making noise all day today.

However, the world doesn’t know.

‘The person who is called a disciple is Faezon himself…’

I look at the person in front of me who is eating the dumplings I bought.

It seemed like he didn’t have much thought about my question, but I knew that wasn’t the case.

“why. “Is there something I shouldn’t have done if I went out?”

“It’s like coming to a place where kids play and making a fuss.”

“under.”

Paezon bursts out laughing as if he were dumbfounded.

“Disciple. “Then what do you think is different?”

“I’m a kid, right?”

“Look at how shameless it is.”

I grab the dumplings and take a deep breath.
I asked while looking at that loser.

“Elder.”

“okay.”

“Is this what you wanted to say last time?”

The old day when I faced Shinryong.
At that time, I said I had something to say at the guesthouse.

Could it be this?
I asked with that intention.

“right.”

Faezon expresses the affirmative.
As expected, what I was trying to say at that time seemed to be correct.

You really said you were going to go to a non-movie festival?
I asked, dumbfounded.

“Why do you want to leave?”

“Didn’t it look fun?”

“You don’t like that.”

He is a person who treats people like children’s play and doesn’t even engage in fake fights.

I also do sparring to teach myself and to vent my anger.
Even though it’s a festival, a person who absolutely hates fighting with the weak would go out to some non-fight festival.

“Sometimes something like this is necessary.”

“…perhaps.”

“okay.”

“You’re not going there to beat me legally…”

Swish!

I turned my head to avoid the honey chestnuts.
I had to cool down after avoiding it.

‘Is this crazy old man?’

The hand that Faezon swung was imbued with strength.

“damage?”

“Did you plan to break his head?”

“You’re not going to die if you get hit anyway.”

“…Why are you saying such cruel things?”

As the saying goes, even if you get hit, your head will be slightly broken, but you won’t die, but it’s absurd for a man called a teacher to say such things.

“If you’re going to beat me, beat me like this and that’s it.”

“Are you trying to hit me to show me that?”

“It was easy to understand, right?”

“…Yes, it’s really easy.”

It’s so easy that I’m almost pissed.

“There.”

While I was frowning, Fazon calmly continued speaking.

“Originally, I was just going to go out and get a taste, but I thought it would be easier to spread the name, so I used it. What happened? “I’m going to use mine.”

That was correct.
Even if Bieuijin is said to be a disciple of Paejon, no one can deny this.

Fighting Dragon was also defeated.

Whether it is Biuijin or Biju, there is sufficient justification because they were both born in Biju, Xi’an.

only.

“A man who doesn’t like that kind of thing is spreading some name…”

The point is that Pazon was a quiet person in his past life until the war broke out.

If he hadn’t said that he became younger through anti-rohwandong, others probably wouldn’t have known about it until he died.

What on earth did they do that for convenience?
The moment I was about to question it for a moment.

“There is no better way to silence useless rumors.”

“…!”

I had to swallow my breath at Pazon’s words.

At the same time, I looked at Fazon with slightly widened eyes.
That doesn’t make any sense.

‘Are you saying it’s because of the rumors spreading around the midfield?’

A group called Demonic Cult suddenly appeared in the central plains.

It was at this point that rumors spread that Cheonma, the leader of the place, was the loser.

The rumor hasn’t spread that far yet. This situation is being dismissed as nonsense due to the perception that the Trinity would not be doing such a thing.

Even that was a point where I was somewhat concerned.

‘no way.’

Is that why Paezon acted like this?
So for what?
Is it because such misunderstandings bother you?

‘no. ‘I’m not the kind of person who cares about that kind of thing.’

If I snorted at a trivial rumor, I would have done so, but if I were a loser, I wouldn’t have made a move for it.

Why?
If I were to look for a reason, there was one thing that bothered me.

‘…Is it me?’

Because of me.

It was a case where Faezon thought that I was related to the Demonic Cult, and so he personally moved to sweep away the rumor.

If it is said that Turyong actually became Paezon’s disciple and Paezon was training his disciples, it would be convenient to put to rest the rumors that are currently spreading.

If that’s the reason, you might think of something like that.

‘Yeah… I guess not like that.’

Probably not.

Faezon wouldn’t have moved for me.
I felt like I was suspicious when I heard the information last time, but I don’t think I would have acted like this because of that suspicion.

That person couldn’t have done that.

That’s what I wanted to think about.

“Why are you looking at me like that?”

“no.”

“Bland guy.”

Pazon chuckles at my reaction.

“Anyway, since I’m leaving, you should know.”

“…All right.”

It’s a non-muzera with the loser.

‘Will it be okay?’

We’re already at the point where we’re trying to figure out each and every one of those who are leaving.
If Faezon intervenes here, will there be any problems with the plan?

‘I guess I’ll have to go to find out this.’

It seemed like it would vary depending on the situation.

The good news is that it doesn’t seem like there will be much of a difference.

“…I guess I can beat him outright now. “Cluck, click, click.”

I ignored the quiet sounds.

After sighing slightly, a thought occurred to me and I asked Fazon what he wanted to say.

“Ah, old man.”

“why.”

“I’m just asking just in case.”
I took a moment to catch my breath and continued speaking.

“Do you know about my grandfather?”

“hmm?”

After hearing the question, Paezon tilted his head.

It seems strange that he asked about my grandfather, but from my point of view, the question had its own reasons.

‘Paejon is close to Elder Il and King Am. ‘The King of Darkness mentioned my grandfather.’

If so, wouldn’t Fazon also know about his grandfather?
I asked that question with that intention.

“well.”

Pazon gives an ambiguous answer to this.

“Should I say I know this… I wonder.”

“What does that mean?”

“I mean it literally. But, why are you asking this?”

“I was just curious.”

I couldn’t go into detail about the situation, so I decided to summarize it.

“Wouldn’t your father tell you?”

“yes.”

My father never spoke to me about my grandfather.
At least that’s what I remember.

Since I was born, the head of the Gu family has been my father, and it was the same in my past life.

“Hmm…”

Faezon, who heard the words, reacts as if he is in trouble.
He seemed to be thinking about how to answer.

‘Is that something to worry about?’

I was just trying to find out what kind of person he was, but it seemed like something was holding me back.

“If I had to guess… I guess they look half and half alike.”

“yes?”

He expressed doubts about the unexpected answer. What’s the sudden resemblance?

“He is your father and you. “He was such a mixed person.”

“What is that…”

“Yes, so to speak.”

Looks like he realized it! “Paezon claps his hands and says.

“A decent crazy guy.”

“…?”

“He was just that kind of person.”

Even though he seemed satisfied with what he said.

‘…what is that.’

It was something I didn’t understand at all.

Saying that it’s half and half and then calling him a decent crazy guy…

‘Does that mean my father is a crazy guy because I’m on the gentle side? ‘No, my father doesn’t feel that way.’

As I was shaking my head here and there, Faezon continued talking.

“If you have any further questions, if you see your father or the King of Cancer instead of me, go and ask.”

“Are you talking about the King of Darkness?”

“right. “He would know better than me.”

“…”

I touched my lips as the words left no doubts resolved.

My father still hasn’t come, and the King of Darkness hasn’t returned either.

That’s the end result.

‘I guess I have to go see Goo Hee-bi.’

In the end, you have to go and ask.
That is the only conclusion left.

‘Yes, it would be meaningless to postpone it anyway.’

I turned my gaze towards the drawer.
To be precise, I was looking at your company’s jade, a broken treasure hidden in a drawer.

It was a precious gift that her father had given to Mrs. Mi.

‘I have to watch it because of that.’

Since I wanted to fix a broken treasure, it was inevitably Goo Hee-bi.
No, it’s the Heavenly Horse that Gu Hee-bi is carrying.

I had to find her, and then I had to find one person through Heavenly Demon.

‘…the Heavenly Demon would probably know.’

An old man who touched all the organs of the Demonic Cult.

also.

‘A person who artificially created valuables.’

Train driver Taejeolgwi.
Heavenly Demon would know where he was.

******************

Time passed and the sun rose in the sky.
Currently, the streets of Hanam were so crowded with so many people that it was impossible to see any gaps.

“everyone! “Be careful!”

“Don’t come too far forward! “You could get run over by a horse!”

That’s natural.

There were a lot of people coming and going even on the wide road, but since it was controlled and made cramped, many people had no choice but to gather together.

It is a sight that takes your breath away just by looking at it.
How can so many people gather together without a single empty space?…

‘If it were me, I’d go crazy because it’s so stuffy.’

Just looking at it makes me want to run away right away.
In fact, the people on the street looked filled with anticipation.

That’s why.

“come!”

“where? where are you?”

“It’s Amipa!”

This is because you can see warriors entering from the entrance to Henam Fortress.

From the entrance, the horse slows down and leads the carriage.
I nodded as I looked at the waving flag.

‘Is it Amifa….’

I know. It was natural since it was a famous place.

Amipa, one of the old file rooms.
It is one of the prestigious families established in Sacheon.

‘It’s a place I don’t particularly remember being connected to.’

In my past life, I heard that Geomma killed Amipa’s Jangmun-in during the capture of Sacheon.
Thanks to this, I think we have reached a similar level, if not extinction.

Other than that, I didn’t remember much.
I guess you could say I didn’t think it was very important.

So, I watch their march with somewhat cold eyes.

“I didn’t know Amifa would come for the first time.”

I turned my attention to the words I heard before.
This is what Mo Yong-hee said while drinking tea.

After hearing that, I asked back.

“why?”

“The women of Amifa are particularly proud. So I didn’t expect it to come from the beginning.”

Did you say that the Amipa was a sect comprised only of women?

‘Hagiya.’

The order was also part of the fight between them, so it was a bit unusual.

‘There must be a reason.’

It’s not something I’m very interested in.
Because it was literally just a useless thing.

Amifa passes by, receiving the attention of the audience.
Others are seen coming in after them.

“Plum-! “It’s a volcanic wave!”

The sound drew my attention to the temple.

‘hmm.’

This time it’s not carriages, but purely people.
A familiar military uniform caught my eye.

The faint scent of plum blossoms mixes with the wind. It was seen that the pure white gi had plum leaf embroidery.

It was the Huashan faction, known as the guardians of Shaanxi.
I laughed a little while watching it.

“long time no see.”

Dozens of people come in calmly, without horses or carriages.

At the front was a kind-looking old man walking.

“It’s a plum blossom line!”

“Wow!”

The identity of the old man is a teenage expert from the central world who is famous for having a long history of volcanoes.
It was Maehwaseon (梅華仙).

‘I never thought he would come in person.’

Just like the last political faction meeting, I thought the Maehwasun wouldn’t show up in Hanam this time either.
This time, for some reason, I left Shaanxi and came here.

After hearing the crowd cheering, Maehwaseon slightly waves her hand.
Because of that, the sound got louder.

I was watching this scene out of the guest room window.

It was a room reserved in advance at Baekhwa Sangdan, and it was located in a location with a bright view of the street.

“It seems like it’s time for everyone to get together.”

Following me, Wei Seol-ah and Tang So-yeol stick their heads out the window.

“yes. “Now is the day that must come soon.”

It’s not just Amipawa volcano.

The majority of old file rooms. Perhaps everyone will come, and countless experts are coming, including those who are called famous.

Gathering.

Since the main political factions were gathered in one place, several times more people than the first day gathered to see it.

The number of people was overwhelmingly larger than any other day I had seen before.
He then looked at the people who continued to come in and asked Mo Yong-hee.

“Is Moyongse coming too?”

Since the Moyong family is definitely one of the four major royal families, I asked if they would come to Bimuje. To this she answered:

“no. “I heard you won’t be attending the festival.”

“okay?”

“yes. The head of the family said that it was not a situation for him to come to Hanam.”

“Hmm….”

The head of the Moyong family, Baekcheongeomju, is not coming to Hanam?

‘That’s strange.’

I thought that guy would come.

He is a man of political and business prowess. I didn’t know anything else, but I expected Baekcheongeomju to attend.
This was quite unexpected.

‘What is more important than non-life?’

I had doubts, but I shook my head and brushed them off.

There must be some reason.

‘Anyway, if even Mo Yong’s family fails to attend. It means that only two of the four major families will attend.’

There was news that Paengga and Namgung would attend.
The party statement is…

‘It is said that Party So-yeol will attend… but it is somewhat ambiguous.’

Due to the current situation, Tangmun’s location is a problem, so the Dog King will not come to Hanam.
In reality, it would be correct to say that only two of the four major royal families attended.

“Two places… At least five in the old file room…”

“Yes?”

“no. “I have something to think about for a moment.”

The number seems to be okay.
I gathered my thoughts and looked out the window.

“The golden sword of Guidongjin (貴東進劍)!”

“There is also a mukseongbimagwon (黙成備魔拳) next to it! “Does this mean that silent voices will also participate?”

“I’ve reached the golden sword!”

In addition to clans and Sega, we also hear nicknames from promising experts.
As the warriors gathered together, they were even mixing into the air.

It was a phenomenon that occurred when numerous cilantro gathered together.

Feeling this, I opened my eyes.

‘You’re here.’

The strong gather together.

As I look at this, I can’t help but feel it.

‘Shinryongmutuje.’

It’s time to make a mess at the event officially prepared by the Murim Alliance.
It had finally come.

******************

While Ouyangcheon was cooling off while looking at the crowds.
Someone was standing on a roof looking down.

Countless people were turning their eyes here and there as if they were curious.

The person behind his back looks at the people and asks what is so surprising.

“That’s a lot. “There are so many.”

Were there always this many?

The old man tried to remember, but he couldn’t remember because it was so long ago.
It’s been a long time since I forgot everything in the first place, so it’s natural that I don’t remember.

“There are so many that I want to burn them all.”

The words suddenly uttered are truly terrifying.
It was even more so when he said it with an expressionless face.

Should I try that right now?

The impulse was overwhelming, but the old man did not move.

“…”

Recall the purpose.
He didn’t come here to squish bugs.

“…okay. “There was a reason.”

The old man shook his head and slowly turned his back.

Then I started walking, but strangely, I couldn’t hear any footsteps.

“Where should we go?”

Where can I go to meet my ‘grandchildren’?

Thinking about this, the old man’s red eyes flashed.

Grumbling-!!

For a moment, it turned into a flame and disappeared.
