Childhood Friend of the Zenith - Chapter 106
< Episode 106 > There is a teacher. (3)
There is a teacher. (3)
The slanted moon was a purple light.
The starlight hovering around was the same as the primary color, but that ominous moon
seemed to swallow everything.
Only the sound of dripping water echoes in the thick darkness
.
widely-!
At the same time as the sound of a teacup falling, a voice came from beyond the darkness.
[You’re late.]
I’m sure he wouldn’t have bet on his voice, but his heart tightens at that light question
.
The shining purple eyes were still creepy even after time passed.
[…Meet the sky of the main school.]
The man stepped in front of him and knelt down on one knee. There was no hesitation.
It was because he didn’t know his level enough to raise his head in front of that absurd existence
.
Heavenly Demon (天魔).
The owner of ten thousand was in front of the man. The Heavenly Demon quietly looks down at the man and whispers
.
[I heard the news. I heard that the swordsman died.]
The man’s back trembled at the name that suddenly flowed out.
[Do you resent it?]
The man questioned the Heavenly Demon’s question.
Who is the resentment he is talking about, myself? Or my thirst?
If that’s not the case, are you asking me if I dare to resent the Heavenly Demon? In the end, the man
did not give any answer to the Heavenly Demon’s question.
Squeeze….
Perhaps feeling something about the man’s reaction, the Heavenly Demon laughed under his breath.
[You’re not denying anything.]
Degurur.
A small cup rolled forward. The man carefully picked up the glass.
[Listen.]
The man raised the cup according to the order of the Heavenly Demon. The drink is filled to the brim
.
He lifted a glass full of alcohol and raised his head. The black uniform worn by the Heavenly Demon
stands out.
The Heavenly Demon’s uniform was clean.
I swallow dry saliva on my own in the black uniform that is not stained with dust.
The body without a single wound is also the same.
The Heavenly Son died, and the Heavenly Demon also died today at the hands of the Heavenly Demon.
I heard that he took a joint venture with the Murim Meng as well as the Sword John. There were no wounds
on the Heavenly Demon’s body .
Just looking at the results, it was.
Pajon died from having his heart pulled out, and Geomjon survived, but his body was not in good health
.
Even though two of the Three Lords of the World, who were looking down on the world, worked together,
not a single hem of the Heavenly Demon’s clothes could be brushed.
If the Cheonjon didn’t die and all the triads worked together, would there have been a different outcome?
It was something I wasn’t sure about.
[The promise was kept. Geomjon saved that old monster twice, so this should be enough
.]
[…]
[This means that I have shown this much generosity to Daeju.]
[…Thank you.]
So Are you saying that you shouldn’t attach meaning to the death of the demon swordsman?
He drank the wine the Heavenly Demon poured for him. No matter how bitter he drank , his body was
now devoid of inspiration, but even the drink he drank was bitter.
[Chun Yu-rang seems to think that he will entrust the small sword to Dae-ju, but
what is the Dae-ju’s opinion?]
[…]
[I can’t see his face, but I know it.]
Wi Seol-ah’s nickname is the Heavenly Demon. put into the mouth of It seemed as if a sigh would escape
from the thick melodies running down his back . The
Heavenly
Demon refills the empty wine glass with gold wine .
The man drank
at once, just like before.
[I won’t spit any more naughty words, but I haven’t forgotten the promise.]
At the same time as the Heavenly Demon’s words are over, countless cracks appear in his back.
Jijijijik-! Geuggeuggeuk-!
Creepy sounds were a natural companion. The crack of purple light gradually
grows in size.
Several cracks opened at the same time ate each other and quickly merged into one crack.
the man knew That this qualitative spectacle all happened at the hands of the Heavenly Demon
.
Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr
A beast’s cry comes through the crack. They felt the Heavenly Demon and
expressed fear, but did not hide their resentment toward the world.
Feeling the deep wilderness, the Heavenly Demon continues to speak casually.
[Do you know that the principal has a lot of expectations for Dae-joo?]
[Yes.]
[He asked to save the girl, so he granted it, and because he wanted strength, he gave strength.
]
-Kreurre!
Soon, huge beasts appeared from beyond the rift one by one.
The energy they radiated was wide and terrifying enough to resonate around them.
[It is also an example of this that he did not blame the arbitrariness he did with Sichuan. Why do you think the principal
would have done that?]
No more water flows from the bottle that was used to pour alcohol into the glass.
The wine bottle held by the Heavenly Demon is scattered in an instant and blown away by the wind.
[As I said, according to the oath I made with Daeju, I will not touch the small swordsman yet. But
.]
The Heavenly Demon’s purple gaze strikes the man down.
[If that’s a while, remember that it’s the last time.]
[…Thank you for your deep generosity.]
After speaking, the Heavenly Demon stood up. I can see the black robe fluttering
in the unconsciously exuding demonic energy .
As he approached the polishing mirror with his own hand, the Heavenly Demon pulled out a ring from his hand and
threw it at the man.
The man picked up the ring thrown by the Heavenly Demon and grabbed it. As soon as I caught it,
my head was about to ring at the strong magic that I felt in the ring.
[Name. Bring the head of the lord.]
The man did not respond to the Heavenly Demon’s command and just put the ring on his finger.
that’s the answer
The Heavenly Demon confirms this and steps into the crack.
[The period is three days. That should be enough.]
The demons follow the Demon and enter the rift again, and soon after, the rift closes and disappears
.
The Heavenly Demon disappeared, but the man was unable to raise his lowered head.
I had no idea what emotions I was feeling right now.
I didn’t know if what was seething inside was anger at myself or resentment toward someone
.
Even though the man thought himself miserable, he knew he couldn’t blame anyone
.
Because everything was the end of the karma he made.
Unnecessary emotions were quickly washed away.
I didn’t deserve to blame myself and there was no time to hesitate.
The man got up and walked through the black mist.
Shin Noya asked what the Heavenly Demon was. I thought about the intent of the question.
I didn’t ask who you were.
I was asking ‘what’.
I don’t know how far Shinnoya may have looked at my memories, but it was really uncomfortable for me
.
[There were many things I couldn’t see, but among them,
most of the stories about the Heavenly Horse were covered in fog, so I couldn’t see
them .]
.]
“…”
[Ask again. What the hell is a kid?]
I thought about the Heavenly Demon at Shin Noya’s words.
An absurd being who tried to stand alone in the sky.
An existence that commanded all demons and reached the sky with the power of a single person excluding them.
Shin Noya knows that just because the Heavenly Demon’s power is outstanding, he doesn’t doubt the existence itself
.
I always had doubts about whether he was human or not
.
After thinking for a while, I said to Shinnoya.
“…I don’t know much about the Heavenly Demon.”
[What?]
Noya said as if it were absurd, but it was true. Not only me, but
there is no information about
where the Heavenly Demon came from or how he lived until then .
It was just one day.
The Jinma Sutra, which had not appeared for centuries in the Murim League, suddenly opened
.
It was a sudden situation, but many people were not taken aback by this.
At that time, it was the time when the Moorim League was holding a non-radio battle against countless latter-day Jisoo.
There were
not only outstanding postscripts, but also major
figures from each of the three families who had gathered to see it.
Not only the warriors of the Murim League, but also the head of the Namgung family,
all the heads of the four generations, except for the Paeng family, were present, and most of the strong members of the Gupabang were gathered
.
Normally, it would be a catastrophic situation, but if it was like now, it
wouldn’t be so dangerous, everyone thought.
Contrary to everyone’s expectations, the events of the day were the beginning of a disaster.
Contrary to what I thought dozens of demons would roar and appear,
only one person appeared at the demon gate with leisurely steps.
Except for the white skin, black light was spinning from head to toe.
In an unexpected situation, they all
aimed their swords at an unidentified person who appeared from the demon gate.
He was just putting on a relaxed expression.
—What are you doing?
At the question of the leader, he smiled.
– Nice to meet you.
That was the beginning of the disaster.
-This is every thousand.
There was no such thing as a peaceful conversation.
After killing nearly half of the soldiers there and devastating the surroundings, the Heavenly Horse
walked out to the main gate of Maeng without incident.
It was the moment when the two letters, Cheonma, were engraved all over the midfield.
Many late exponents and renowned strongmen died that day.
The Cheonma immediately made a name for his achievements in Murim, but
it was a meaningless act in front of his absurdity.
His power was enchanting in itself, and
there were many people who were fascinated by the power and went under the Heavenly Demon on their own.
The Heavenly Demon did not refuse those who came.
If he wanted to become a demon, he did whatever he wanted. Although he loses his freedom in front of the golden emperor,
he can fly away from the arms of the Heavenly Demon, so the number of demons gradually increases.
What does the Heavenly Demon want?
For what purpose did he reveal his face to the world and what did he dream of?
There were so many demons in the arms of the Heavenly Demon, but there was nothing to know about.
A heavenly horse is just a thousand.
He wanted to stand on top of the sky, and he deserved it, so he
didn’t need a reason or explanation.
Everyone thought so. Ironically, even me.
[…Are you saying it appeared in a crack?]
Shinnoya was speechless at my answer. Why did Noya do that? How
did I go against time?
At least, I didn’t ask why he became a demon. He may not have asked because he knew, but
he was focusing on the part where
the Heavenly Demon came out of the rift .
[…why.]
Silence comes and goes for a moment as if lost in thought.
I was rather embarrassed because most of the questions I was prepared for were not heard.
I knew I would hear about the volcanic wave first in my previous life.
Noya was only interested in the Heavenly Demon.
“Noya.”
[Say.]
“Do you know that I did something bad to the Volcano Wave in my previous life?”
In my head, I just kept my mouth shut, but I spoke up.
It was already a belated confession, but I couldn’t escape after coming this far.
[I know.]
Noya calmly replied. My eyes widened at the answer.
“…If that’s the case, why don’t you blame it?”
[Do you want me to blame you?]
“”
[Even if I’m a master, it’s not that it’s already in the past and there won’t be any resentment left in my heart
.]
Shin Noya is a hero of the previous generation who spent his whole life to protect the volcano and burned the flowers that bloomed
.
Even more so, there was no way he didn’t have affection for the volcano faction as he was a long-time scholar of the munpa.
[Even if you resent Hana, that is what those who remain in modern times should do.]
Shin Noya stopped breathing once in the middle, was silent for a while, and continued.
[The reason why I don’t blame you and vent my anger
is because I saw not only the burning plum blossoms.]
“…Noya.”
[Don’t get me wrong. not forgiven I just endure and watch.]
“”
[So don’t hesitate. Don’t you know the reason better?]
I closed my eyes at Noya’s words. Because the karma to bear was too heavy
.
[Child.]
“Yes…”
[What are you going to do from now on?]
The meaning of Shin Noya’s question was very clear. Are you going to stop the Heavenly Demon? won’t you
stop
The tightly closed mouth did not open easily. Seeing the day hesitating, Noya
added words.
[I know why you are so hesitant. But
I also know that you have already given an answer in your heart. Honey, speak with your mouth.]
“How are you doing this all of a sudden?”
[I realized while examining your memories. You seem to have a vague idea of
why I am here on this earth .]
“What was that all of a sudden?”
[You already gave the answer. Is it really that hard to say it out loud?]
I’m a bit taken aback by Noya’s urging. There was nothing wrong with Noya’s words, so I
calmed down for a while.
‘…I didn’t originally have this idea.’
I just wanted to live a peaceful life.
Since it was an opportunity I got again, I wanted to live moderately without doing anything.
I thought that alone would change a lot. If you think about it now,
you will know it from the beginning.
I also just wanted to live as if I didn’t know.
Taking a deep breath, he said to Noya.
“Yes, I intend to stop the Heavenly Demon.”
I also set aside
questions about whether I dare to do it, such as whether I can stop it and how to stop it .
I made up my mind to do so. It was not my intention to become a hero.
The reason was that he just wanted to carry the karma that he had to listen to originally.
It was an unsightly promise and determination, but it was clearly sincere.
[Whoa… whoa…]
Noya gasps at my answer. What are you thinking? It’s Noya who feels a part of
my heart.
On the contrary, I couldn’t read Noya’s thoughts, so it was really awkward.
Soon after, Noya speaks.
[Yeah, that’s enough.]
After one monotonous word, Noya didn’t say anything to me for a while
.
Just one question about the Heavenly Demon was the end.
‘Is this what happened?’
Telegram’s largest novel sharing room
More than 100,000 novels can be downloaded…
..
I wondered why I didn’t ask more.
It would be noon in a little while, and I was thinking of going to see Maehwaseon after that.
I had to
finish talking about the spirit group that I was supposed to compensate for and the pottery in my body .
Soon after, the mountain road back to the inn.
Shinnoya was sorting out his questions alone.
The existence of the heavenly horse that walked out of the crack.
The incomprehensible and absurd strength and character feel somehow familiar.
[That shouldn’t be the case…]
That’s why Shin Noya had to be more anxious and remorseful.
The history left behind was telling.
that guy is dead
It is clear that we have prevented it, and the disaster has ended in our hands.
[If so…]
Why is he putting on the image of a blood demon from the being called the Heavenly Demon?
Shin Noya couldn’t erase the intense anxiety.
It was not long after Gu Yangchun left.
A man in the uniform of a member of the Murimmaeng was standing in the basement of the branch.
The man was looking around among the corpses scattered here and there.
I tilted my head as I checked the walls and floor
.
There are hardly any signs of fighting.
It didn’t look like it was hit hard.
Took-!
The man hit a dead body on the floor with his foot and overturned it.
Wearing black clothes and black masks, anyone can see that they are wearing clothes that say ‘I can live’.
The corpse was a Raksha who had been stabbed in the heart.
‘One arm has been cut off and all tendons are severed.’
Did you cut them off so they couldn’t escape? I don’t think it would be possible to cut it off so cleanly in the middle of a fight
.
Rather, it was a more reliable story to say that it was cut off after subduing it. The fact that there are no traces of a fierce battle means that it was a one-sided attack, and
the culprit was a skilled swordsman when it came to determining the part where
the arm was neatly cut off or the cause of death.
‘It’s a swordsman…Did he even notice it at the volcano?’
To say that, there were many more uncertainties.
It is questionable from the fact that he was able to open the device and enter in the first place.
‘I wouldn’t be able to open it without Heaven.’
It was judged that there was no way that an unmanned man like Raksha could have left the door open like an idiot.
Could there be a traitor inside the main palace? If not…
“Ttsk…”
The man roughly removed the corpse of Rachal and went towards the pool of blood.
There were no flowers that should have been growing there. It looked like it had already been pulled out
.
‘I got into trouble.’
Rachal’s failure was unexpected.
I’m sure the King will think so too.
I thought
there would be no problem as long as Mae Hwa-seon noticed and intervened .
‘…Can’t recover the undiluted solution of the volcano.’
Although it may not be the main part, I heard that it is not a small part.
Not to mention, there were hardly any traces left of him, as if he was skilled enough to handle the job in this regard
.
“As for the intervention of the Kuga… I have to report something to the main palace.”
A while ago, the man heard that the son of the Gu family had killed a bloody enemy.
Could that have anything to do with this day?
I heard that the boys of the Gu family are of the martial arts class that use fire techniques.
However, there was no such part in the traces left on the corpse he was looking at
.
Then where did you get involved?
Recently, there was a story that Hao Mun was in and out of various branches, and
it might be that way.
Thanks to you, there are more things I need to know.
Tsk-!
The man grabbed his throbbing head.
The problem was that it was always so complicated when things went wrong.
“Lord.”
Another person appears from the back of the room and talks to the man.
The man straightened his expression in an instant and looked back.
“Did you find anything?”
“I think we need to call in a separate expert to find out about the device that made the secret door.”
“Yes, write down that part separately and bring it.”
“Yes…then what should we do here?”
“What do you do?”
“Shouldn’t we be contacting the volcano?”
Seeing the dead body with blood drawn here and there, Maeng’s crew frowned.
Looking at the pool of blood in the center, I thought I wouldn’t be able to eat for a while.
Enduring the nausea, the Daewon says.
“What were you trying to do?”
“Do we know what Sapa are thinking? Don’t try to understand.”
“…That’s like that again.”
The man laughed at Daewon’s words
.
‘To think I’d have to do bat stuff like this for at least another year.’
That savage bastard who was killed by a kid also took up a spot, but he
had to spend time cleaning up in this place.
The man said while enduring his twisted stomach.
“The same goes for the volcanic wave, and I will report separately to the upper level, so you don’t have to worry about it
.”
“yes…? Oh, I see.”
“Related matters will go up through me anyway, so if you want to see something, bring it
and tell me.”
“All right!”
“Yes, suffering.”
After sending the crew up, he spread his senses and touched the corpse of Rachal. It was because I had to erase any
traces that might remain.
“what.”
The man felt something strange when he touched Rakshaka’s body.
Since he had just died, there was still a bet in his body
.
Even though it has been scattered a lot, my qi still remains…
‘Isn’t there not even a handful of heavenly qi left?’
I don’t feel the most important thing.
The energy of the sky that can only be obtained by entering the sanctuary after receiving the approval of the palace.
The man had energy, like the Rakshasa, so he had to be able to feel it.
But to my surprise, I didn’t feel it at all. It seemed that he had died not too long ago, so
there was no way they had dispersed.
Danjeon also hasn’t broken, so there must be energy left.
It was incomprehensible that not even a single handful could be felt.
It’s not possible, but it feels like someone intentionally pulled it out.
‘…I have to write one more line.’
In my head, one more line was added to the words to be uploaded to the main palace.
The man was sure that this would be the most important part.
