Childhood Friend of the Zenith - Chapter 37

EP.37 Finding Remarks. (5)

Finding Vigo (5)

This was before Ma Cheol came to Vigo in pursuit of Yangcheon Gu.

It was Namgung Tianjun, the brain dragon of Baro Namgung, who screamed with his hair scattered and one arm tied with a bandage in the messy room.

“Fuck… Shivaaal!”

Every time Namgung Cheonjun screams and stirs up a commotion, objects are broken one by one and the bodies of the attendants next to him tremble.

As soon as Namgung Chunjun came to his senses, he was overcome with uncontrollable anger.

“A dog-like guy…… He must have used witchcraft.”

otherwise it is not explained.

What did you say his name was Gu Cheon-yeop or Gujeol-yeop?

Only immediate blood relatives can participate in the party meeting.

If the situation didn’t work out, he wouldn’t have sent a collateral if he didn’t come.

It was an unspoken rule between the three.

Speaking of Gu-Ga, it is the family of Hohyeop and Geombong.

I heard that one of Hohyeop’s children has a boy, so it must be him.

Pudeuk.

Namgung Cheonjun gritted his teeth.

‘What kind of magic did he use?’

At first, it was just that I didn’t like it.

I didn’t like the fact that I accompanied my sister for a few days.

I just didn’t like that guy who was getting attention from his sister without knowing it.

Ho-hyeop, an excellent martial artist, or a guy named Geombong’s bloodline, who I don’t like but is chosen as the most late index.

His inaction was insignificant, and he didn’t have enough of a bet to notice it all.

I didn’t like that he made an inexplicably drowsy face on such a subject and took a look down without realizing it.

So I just thought I’d tease you a little bit.

It means to know the subject.

absence? Was it really necessary to be sincere with him?

yeah that’s why i was hesitant

But that wasn’t the only reason he lost.

I never thought that he would wake up like this. I just couldn’t stand it.

Namgung Cheonjun was convinced.

“It’s witchcraft…”

What witchcraft? how? It didn’t matter.

If not, how to do it right.

Namgung Cheonjun burned even more anger at the still sore groin.

“Magic iron.”

“Yes, Bocchan.”

Ma-cheol immediately calmed down at the call of Namgung Cheon-jun.

If he called himself in this way, there was only one reason.

Will this command, which has already been given hundreds of times, be any different?

Namgung Chunjun asked.

“Way.”

short question. But a question with a lot in it.

To this, Ma-cheol could not easily answer.

Because things weren’t very good.

Gu Family’s escorts are better than I thought.

Among them, one young man whose name was not known looked particularly outstanding. He’s probably his direct escort.

Even compared to his master, the Thunder Dragon, he is not far behind.

It was to the point where I wondered how the unmanned man’s name hadn’t spread yet.

Of course, in that respect, Kuga was especially wrapped up in secrets.

Compared to himself at his peak, out of 100 fights, he would lose about 20 times.

Breaking through such a gap to bring or deal with Gu Gongja? In fact, in this short period of time, it was almost impossible.

“Magic iron.”

Namgung Cheonjun urged Ma-cheol to answer.

Although his owner is always acting as a grown-up, affectionate and kind person.

In Ma-cheol’s eyes, Namgung Cheon-jun had a stronger child-like side who had to become what he wanted.

Just like now. A

strange

pressure tightens Ma-cheol’s chest.

It was because of the taboo that you will receive when you enter the Namgung family.

Instead of being able to easily obtain martial arts and elixirs and live in the name of Namgung, they have to be loyal to their blood relatives.

It was also because of this that he took on the role of an escort for his blood relative, even though he reached the climax more easily than others.

As the pressure gradually tightened, Ma-cheol swallowed once and barely answered.

“…I’ll look for it.”

The pressure that had been straining at that shaky answer disappeared.

Namgung Cheonjun grinned at Ma-cheol’s answer.

Then he tapped Ma-cheol on the shoulder.

“I always believe in Ma-Cheol and it will bring good news this time too.”

“…yes.”

It’s not a very good situation.

The answer is yes, but is it really possible to do it?

The opportunity came sooner than expected.

This is because the target he secretly watched left the gate alone in the early morning hours.

Before being an escort, Ma-cheol was good at secret techniques, so he was confident in stealth.

At best, how much power would it take to deal with a young boy?

‘How can I escape alone at this time?’

From Ma Chul’s point of view, that was the biggest question.

is it a trap?

If so, what is the trap for?

The only presence felt is the remains of the Gu family.

Then why is that boy running out of breath at this early hour?

Where are you going?

Ma-cheol decided to watch a little longer.

It was a situation where I could carry out my duty at any time, so I wanted to solve my curiosity.

After walking and running for a while, I arrived at the mid-slope of Mt. Geuma, a little away from Dangmun.

‘I wonder if it’s here.’

I wondered what I was looking for, but there was nothing.

‘At this point…’

It’s very easy to kidnap.

Rather than dealing with it quietly, his owner will want that more.

Taking advantage of the moment when I am alone…

“Why are you here!”

Ma-cheol, who was about to do something, had no choice but to stop at the boy’s cry.

Another girl was standing next to the boy.

‘When the hell…?’

It was something I checked all the way.

He didn’t feel the presence of anyone else by the boy’s side.

The tailing of another? If so, there’s no way you wouldn’t have noticed.

Even an ordinary girl like that.

‘…what? Is there someone else?’

A situation that can be easily dealt with, as long as he defeated his master, he must have an exceptional skill.

Even so, the old Gongja is less than first-class, including internal energy.

A girl who appeared to be an attendant had attached to it.

Even in such a situation, Ma-cheol couldn’t step out hastily.

strange

It was as if all the senses in my body were blocked from coming out.

The two come down the mountain and enter the restaurant.

While eating, I overheard the two of them chatting.

Gu Gongja seemed to be looking for a white maple tree.

Maple trees in midsummer are also white…what does this mean?

Then, suddenly, while eating, the girl looks back.

Ma-cheol shuddered at that gaze.

Is it an illusion? It was a very brief moment, but the girl’s eyes were clearly looking at her.

‘It’s an illusion.’

Like Gu Gongja, he looked into the girl’s body, but the girl was an ordinary person with no internal energy.

Coincidence and coincidence just overlapped.

Putting the tingling sensation behind me, I thought.

Meanwhile, the girl said that she saw the tree Gongja Gu was looking for.

At that, the old man asks.

“Do you remember where it was?”

seemed to have found something.

After that, it was a situation where Ma-cheol couldn’t believe the sight he saw.

Stairs going down to the basement of the white maple tree that I eventually found on the mountain I climbed in the middle of the night.

Numerous night-myeong-ju across the wall.

An unknown note.

A monster in the form of a giant snake inside.

Ma-cheol could not understand this situation. These things happened so suddenly.

If you say it’s a gift, is it a gift?

I don’t know how the former Confucius knew this.

In the end, it will turn around and do good for you.

Everything will go back to his owner, but thanks to that, he will be able to loosen his restraints a little.

But.

What the hell is this all about?

“Huh-up… Heo-eok…”

Ma-cheol held on to his cleanly cut shoulder and repeatedly stopped the bleeding with a bet.

‘..Why doesn’t the blood stop?’

The climax of the bet is blown in, but the bleeding does not stop.

As if a dam had been breached, only blood was flowing.

When, how and in what way was he able to deliver such a sword strike with that tiny dagger?

Ma-cheol couldn’t see the slightest movement of how the girl swung her sword.

Dangerous. You must run away immediately.

“Where are you going?”

Ma-cheol’s eyes trembled at the voice that seemed to pierce his heart.

A head that rises slowly.

Ma-cheol couldn’t breathe properly at the figure in front of him.

“He gave me a lot of chances.”

said the girl.

A few words put a heavy weight on Ma-cheol’s one shoulder.

Where did the black hair that was on the girl’s head when I first saw it go?

Brilliant blond hair that seemed to have been poured with gold settled down.

“This… what the hell…

”

what the heck is that

The majesty of the absolute that can easily crush a warrior who has passed the climax.

How should I express this?

Ma-cheol did not know.

What I can be sure of is that the energy that girl exudes was not a bet.

Then what should I say about this?

“So why didn’t you run away sooner?”

Ma-cheol asked with difficulty at the girl’s words.

“Who is the nobleman…”

“Someone you don’t know.”

“If you knew from the beginning that I was following you, how could you have let it go?”

“I have never been quiet. I was even generous enough.”

It was only then that Ma-cheol was able to learn about the unknown anxiety and intuition he had felt all along.

“Why is someone like you…”

Ma-cheol bit his lips.

Banrohwandong (返老還童), which is the end of enlightenment that a warrior only in legends will experience.

Could it be that the person in front of me is an unmanned person who has reached that level?

If so, why are you pretending to be the servant of such a person?

said the girl.

“I don’t take questions… it doesn’t take that long.”

I still want to stroke it some more.

The girl said so in a low voice.

“The reason I am generous is because this body is new to murder.”

“…What are you talking about?”

I could feel it in that hesitation sword attack.

You did it if you committed a massacre, but you never committed a murder? Absolutely not.

The girl ignored Ma-cheol’s question and continued her own words.

“At least this part I wanted to leave to my own choice. It’s gone in a direction I don’t want. Sorry.”

A sudden apology Ma-cheol thought that the apology was not meant to him.

How can I survive?

Thoughts kept running through her head, the girl’s pace was faster.

The thought of confrontation was erased long ago.

You have to run away.

While the girl was talking to herself, she raised bets all over her body at once.

Because he pulled the limit too quickly, he could have hurt even the firstborn, but it wasn’t the time to care about that.

just come back alive

I just thought I should go back and tell you what I’ve been through.

Ma-cheol immediately turned around and kicked the ground. I was thinking of escaping to the gate like this.

However, something was strange.

His gaze, which should have been directed toward the entrance, was directed toward the floor.

even getting closer

‘What is it…’

Ma-cheol questioned, but that was the end.

Took Degurur.

The neck of Namgung’s promising peak master rolled on the floor of Vigo.

In the end, he died in vain due to Wi Seol-ah’s single sword.

Seeing that, Wiseol-ah casually put the sword back into the scabbard, swung her hand once, and the demonic body was engulfed in flames.

A very short time passed.

It disappeared without even leaving a bone, as if it had never been there in the first place.

[…Now…Stop giving it back…!!]

Weiseolah smiled lowly at the voice that pierced her ears.

“I’m sorry, but I won’t be able to come out for a while, so could you look after me for a bit?”

[I mean my body…]

“That’s right, it’s your body…. Now and in the future.”

Wi Seol-ah approaches Gu Yang-cheon, who is sleeping as if she is dead, and strokes her head again.

“…Now I’ll really give it back. I think this is enough.”

bitter

Everything he did from now on was like that to Wi Seol-ah. They say there is nothing more painful than late regret.

There was nothing wrong with the old saying.

Wi Seol-ah pokes Gu Yang-cheon on the cheek and smiles.

[..Cee…]

I quickly withdrew my hand from the grumbling in my ears.

-Are you going?

The snake that was crumbling from behind asked.

“I have to go to bed, I think I went too far.”

How long will it take until the next one comes out? It probably took a long time.

-…Do you know who you are?

When asked by the snake, Wiseo-ah smiled slightly.

“Very little.”

Wisulah knew a little about herself. I just realized too late.

-It will be hard work.

“I know.”

-I see …I wish you all the best in your future.

“…Thank you for your hard work. good night.”

Is it because of Wi Seol-ah’s words? The snake’s huge body crumbles and disappears at once.

Wei Seol-ah watched it and slowly lay down next to Gu Yang-cheon.

Touching the forehead of Yangchun Gu, who is frowning as if he is having a nightmare.

Soon, Wi Seol-ah also closed her eyes.

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

After a while, Gu Yangchen finally woke up.

“…what is this place?”

It was an unfamiliar ceiling.
