Childhood Friend of the Zenith - Chapter 158

侁 Episode 158 > What I wanted to show you. ⑴

What I wanted to show you. (1)

After the night of the festival, the eight-legged match ended smoothly.

No, is it correct to say that it is smooth?

For such a thing, the gust of wind that followed was stronger than expected.

In particular, this Yongbongjihoe’s Untitled Festival was full of unexpected parts

.

First of all, the defeat of Tang Suyeol was the beginning.

Because no one expected Dokbong to be defeated by the first rain. A lot of people

would have thought that,

at the point where not only Geombong, but Geomryong and Jamryong did not appear, Noyong, Dokbong, and Seolbong would dominate this tournament.

but.

Dokbong was eliminated in the first round.

The thunder dragon was defeated by vomiting blood without being able to brush the opponent’s collar once.

Seolbong was doing well as expected, but he did not show any noticeable appearance

.

The defeat of the geniuses who were certain to be the protagonists of this era.

And the appearance of a new star.

Novelty always heats up people.

-The son of Nak-gum won the poison stick, right? It was even overwhelming.

-I don’t think the poisonous stick is weak

.

– This is not a petty dog!

Rumors of Jang Seon-yeon spread very quickly.

After that, there were several more dances, but even then, Jang Seon-yeon

showed a high level of perfection.

A level of swordsmanship that cannot be seen by people his age.

The same goes for skillfully using Nakgeom’s Dokmun martial arts.

Many who heard this said that the birth of a new dragon was not far away

.

that’s only one day

Only one day has passed since Jang Seon-yeon stood out.

A larger gust of wind burst into flames. Enough to eat

most of the rumors about Jang Seon-yeon .

Namgung’s Thunder Dragon, who was expected to win, was defeated.

Even to a boy whose name was never known.

-The thunder dragon vomited blood? I couldn’t even touch it.

– Hey, you mean that brain dragon? I heard that he is a boy who has not yet taken off his youth

.

-That’s right! Ah, I heard that this is a secret even in the open.

– If you know that it’s a secret in openness, isn’t it already a secret

?

– I guess you don’t want to hear it.

– Hurry up and tell me.

After talking for a while, the man caught his breath and continued my words.

-There are rumors that the boy has climbed over the wall.

-wall? Is it a thief…. Why are you crossing the wall?

-Don’t even think about talking about that somewhere… I ca

n’t take you with me because it’s embarrassing.

– .You may not know why.

– The people living in Jungwon don’t know that…! Speaking of the wall,

it means reaching the pinnacle!

When the man shouted as if he was frustrated, everyone around me burst into laughter.

– You’re talking nonsense. Yeki! You bastard! Gotta bring

some real rumors !

-Last time, I heard that my son, who entered the Cheonsanpa or Cheonjinpa, said that he was a genius because he had risen to the third-rate level, and

I felt like I knew

this person’s climax by name .

– No, these rotten people… are real!

The unbelievers may be frustrated, but the man uses evil, but the listeners only laugh more

.

There was no way that the boy’s level of not exceeding the terms and conditions would have reached its climax

.

– Not to mention the present Samjon, even the former King of Gold, Heaven and Earth would be unreasonable.

—No… it’s real, right?

-I’m having a little fun today. I understand. Do you believe me? Stop being angry and talk to me.

Who is that boy?

I felt like I was going to explode because I didn’t believe it at all, but

it was ridiculous even to think about it to myself.

Climax . It was an achievement that could not be produced not only in the four generations, but also in the old file room

.

The man sighed deeply and added his words.

– They say you are a blood relative of the Shanseo-gu family.

-hmm? where did you hear it

-Of course you’ve heard of it, since it’s from the famous Hohyeop and Geombong families.

– Oh, that’s right! It’s just a name I’ve heard.

-Did you have a son there? why didn’t you know

-It’s natural that you don’t know, because this is the first time you’ve shown yourself.

-The climax is too much of a rumor, but it seems that

he is not a guardian dog like the son of Lord Maeng.

– Look at this guy. As the rumors say, if you are a soldier of the peak level,

you will be a person who is a guardian, not a guardian.

-That’s right! Ha ha ha!

At once, the sound of laughter fills the cheap guesthouse.

The man who brought up the story seemed to die of frustration because of the people laughing

.

In this way, rumors about Guyangcheon were spreading slowly and rapidly

.

And the main character of the rumor who is not particularly interested in this.

“You’re doing well.”

“…”

“I heard you lay down in one blow? Are you Mr. Dogu? Why don’t you change your last name?

I am so embarrassed that I cannot live with my face up.”

“Turn it off.

It was in full swing for

99 people.

Because of the squatting, the top of the head is clearly visible.

I felt a sense of depression between the thick black hair, which was densely located.

That’s right, can’t it be?

“Hey, is it? Are you crying?”

“no.”

“Drain the water out of your nose and tell me, man.”

“Keuu-eung…”

Gujeo-yeop’s weeping voice was something I didn’t want to hear.

Why are the bastards squeezed and fuck?

“Crying for something good. Crying.”

When I clicked my tongue and spoke, Gu Gujeo-yeop crouched down and shouted.

“You’re not crying because you’ve done something wrong…!”

baek!

“Knock!”

“Why do you scream! What did you do well!”

Since the morning when he came, Gujeo-yeop had been crying in a corner.

I understand.

Gu Gujeoyeop lost to Namgoongbia in Bimu yesterday.

It must be embarrassing to be knocked down in one blow.

‘That’s it.’

If someone sees something like this, even if they lose, they will be sad, so they can say why they want to go, but I

also had this reason.

“Did you trip?”

At my words, Gu Gujeo-yeop’s shoulders shook.

How dumbfounded I was when I heard about Bimu last night.

Gujeolyeop’s defeat was expected.

It is said that it would not be strange even if Namgung Bi-ah easily won.

The problem is that he won so easily.

No matter how much Namgoongbia is higher than Gujeolyeop.

It wasn’t a level difference enough to end it in one blow.

If I had concentrated, I would have been able to survive at least a few sums.

Excuses that sound like being careless don’t work.

It’s not that Gu Gu Gu-yeop hasn’t fought with Namgoong Bi-ah, and he must have been very nervous

because he knew his skills .

‘Is that why I rather tripped?’

Gujeo-yeop’s movements were stiff from the start, probably because he was too tense.

It is said that the foot stepping on the step got tangled.

These were the words I heard from Bia Namgoong.

“Are you going to carry your face up because you’re embarrassed?”

“…I did the work the other day, but why does Gongja-nim keep showing his face…”

“You bastard, I said the other day that it’s because we have the same last name! My house is just that

big, so there are hundreds of soldiers belonging to the Volcano Clan, right?”

“Isn’t it over?”

“Then, how many of them have the surname Gu? Are you Dagu?”

“No…”

“Someone who knows that tripped and lost it!?”

“Ugh…!”

A clean defeat in an unmanned battle is a disgrace.

It was said that it was a defeat that you couldn’t even struggle with.

Gujeolyeop will be more so because of his own mistakes.

“It’s because I want to do that…”

“Are you going to make an excuse?”

“…”

“Do you have any excuses?”

Gujeo-yeop shuts his mouth tightly at the words he puts in.

Is there anything I can say

everything must have been my fault

The hesitant lips stopped.

Gu Gujeo-yeop lowered his head again between his knees.

I snorted as I watched it.

‘Fortunately, he doesn’t add words.’

If he had spit out nonsense, saying that it was a losing fight anyway, he

would have given up a harpoon.

Gu Gujeo-yeop was just self-deprecating without making excuses or blaming others.

‘No matter how you look at it, it’s not bad.’

| | …

.

.

.

Except for the fact that his grandfather was an elder, it wasn’t really bad. It was to the point where

I wanted to know what had become of Gujeo-yeop after Iljang-ro met his end in his previous life

.

The talent is not bad, and the temperament is quite good.

‘Shall I raise it?’ It was

to the point where I wondered if it would be okay to take him around properly if I had the time

.

Of course, there is no such thing as enough time or mind.

” hey.”

” .yes.”

This is a watery answer. After hearing that, I cleared my voice a bit and said

,

“They told me to tell them.”

“yes ?”

“ ‘I want to do it right next time.’ Called.”

At my words, Gu Gujeo-yeop lifted his head and met my eyes.

Gujeo-yeop’s eyes were swollen, and the snot that clung to his knees increased.

“… Wow, you look really ugly now.”

“”

There was no need to elaborate on who delivered these words.

It was because Gu Gu Gu Gu Yeop would have known that Emperor Jeong was the daughter of Consort Nam.

“Wield the knife one more time while you’re messing around. Yes, I won’t do that next time.”

“”

It will not be comforting. Even that wasn’t bad. Just because I felt unfair

did not mean that I was convinced that I would be defeated and gave up long ago

.

“answer.”

“All right.

“The next time something like this happens, I will burn the bridge.”

“ .Yes yep!”

Even after saying this, I felt less relieved and hit the crying man on the head one more time and

left.

When I came out of the barracks, Namgoongbia was waiting for me.

I didn’t come with you, but did you come late and wait for me?

In the meantime, the eyes looking at me were strange.

“Why are you looking at me like that?”

When I asked as if I didn’t like it, Namgoong Bi-ah raised the corner of her mouth slightly and

spoke to me.

“I never said anything like that…?”

“”

I heard this.

It was a mistake not to hold back because I thought it would be okay. In fact, Namgoongbia

hadn’t done anything to Gujeolyeop, such as wanting to stick together properly next time.

I just put it on properly.

‘Why is he listening to this?’

It was embarrassing. That’s all, since the useless backcountry was caught.

“.. I didn’t say you did it.”

In the end, what I chose was to run away in a naive way.

Is this true? I didn’t say that Namgoong Bi-ah said it.

Of course, it was an incomprehensible thing to say.

At my obscene words, Bia Namgung only laughed a little more.

” are you okay.”

“what.”

“.. It’s just a lie… it’s not.”

Talking with a smile was like a flower.

‘Didn’t you come to find me?’

It was embarrassing to think of it for granted, but I naturally

thought that Bia Namgung had come looking for me.

In fact, it seemed that Namgoongbia also came to see Gujeolyeop.

“Do you want to go in now?”

When I asked if I was going to go to Gujeo-yeop, Namgoong Biah shook her head.

“ No, it’s okay because I don’t have to do that anymore.”

It was very monotonous to put on a fierce expression again, as if interest had lost.

Now that my business is over, I’m going back to the barracks too.

Bia Namgung, who had been following me as if it were natural, suddenly spoke to me.

“.. This is surprising.”

“what.”

“.. I knew you wouldn’t care about that…”

“That’s what I want to say.”

That was exactly what I wanted to say.

It was impossible for Namgoong Bia to come to visit with care about other people

.

But the fact that Namgoongbi, who should wake up at noon,

came to Gujeolyeop this morning.

It’s more strange to me.

After hearing the words, Namgung Via tilted her head as if she didn’t understand.

“Strange?”

“Isn’t that strange?”

“Why?”

It was even funnier that I didn’t know.

Hey, I was originally like this.

It must have changed a lot from now on, but…

We slowly moved together, but it seemed that Namgoongbia still had more to say

.

” Hey.”

I listened to Namgoongbia’s voice. It’s a clear speech I haven’t heard in a long time.

“Did Soyeol decide to do something for you?”

” .huh?”

I didn’t know what to say, so I frowned slightly.

did you decide to do it? what was i supposed to do?

“He said he would do a favor when we meet at the festival.”

” ah.”

Only then could I recall.

It’s probably because he’s talking about what he was supposed to say.

Did Dang Soyeol tell Namgoongbia?

“I was just asking you to speak plainly or something like that.”

Should I call it a request?

When I saw it, it was just close to justification.

In the midst of this, Namgoongbi Ah had an expression as if she didn’t like something.

The corner of his mouth, which had been smiling slightly earlier, had died before he knew it.

“what’s the matter?”

” nothing.”

It was absolutely nothing.

“Do you want to do something too?”

That’s what I asked just in case.

I wonder if Namgoongbia also wants to do something with this as an opportunity like Dang Soyeol.

Fortunately, Namgoongbya shook his head to see if that was the case.

“That… I won’t do it because it’s petty.”

It’s the same with Dangsoyeol, why do you keep saying it’s lethal?

At first, it seemed like they were deciding something among themselves without my opinion.

Maybe it’s my fault for not saying anything.

“But… I want to receive something.”

I replied as if I was dumbfounded.

“Just ask….that would be better.”

Pretending not to mean that you are asking for something to happen after all.

Namgoongbia

was also blushing with shame, as if she knew that she had been a little mean.

Then, as if he remembered something, he looks at me curtly and grumbles.

“.. They don’t even dance well…”

“…”

I had nothing to say about that part.

It was supposed to be done, but I hardly ever did it. There was no particular reason.

How to say it, it was a bit awkward to dance with Namgoong Bia.

‘Is it because of the memories of the previous life or the emotions of the present?’

Or, the sense of alienation felt there could be the problem.

In any case, it was something to be regretted from the position of Consort Nam.

That’s why you must be bringing up this story with that kind of expression.

“Mi…”

“It doesn’t matter…”

I tried to apologize even though it was late, but Namgoong Bi-ah interrupted and entered.

“Whether it’s a request… or not…”

Namgoongbia’s gaze toward me was clearer than usual.

Blue eyes like jewels shine. It was also the look that I was burdened with.

Because your gaze resembles the time when you were held in my arms.

It was not something I wanted to see for very long.

Whether she knew it or not, Namgoongbia kept her eyes on her and spoke clearly

.

“Because I can’t escape this time.”

Somehow, the words full of resoluteness disturbed the exhaled breath. It was because

Namgoong Bia, who was somehow reluctant to come forward,

seemed to know a little bit about the meaning of attending the Bimujae.

As if my answer was not particularly important, Bia Namgung, who had stopped talking,

walked in front of me.

After taking a few steps, he turned around and looked at me again.

a

I, who had been in a daze, looked at Namgoongbi and gasped.

Namgung Biah was smiling with a proud expression as if she had eaten one shot

.

Does he even know how to make such a playful expression?

Is it because there are so many changes felt at once? My heart thumped.

“.. let’s go.”

Namgoongbi, who quickly erased her smile, whispered in a small voice.

Reaching out to me was a bonus.

white and tender hands.

I calmly looked at Namgung Bi-ah’s hand, then slowly walked over and grabbed it.

“…uh?”

Bia Namgoong widens her eyes as if she really didn’t know how to catch it.

Just then, my hardened face softened slightly.

The reason for holding hands was no different.

I wonder if it’s cold.

That’s all.

I decided to think so.

Some time after returning to the barracks, it was around noon.

As if they had been waiting, the matchup for the semifinals came up.

When I went outside to look at the writing, Dang So-yeol came out first and

looked at it.

However, Dang So-yeol’s expression is hardened.

It seemed to me that I could understand the situation just by looking at that expression.

just as expected.

-Mo Yonghee of the Guyangcheon Daemoyong Family of the Shanseo District Family.

-Namgung’s consort Namgung’s son-in-law. Jang Seon-yeon of Taeryeong’s family.

It was written exactly what I had half expected.
