Childhood Friend of the Zenith - Chapter 531
Chapter 531 – The Beginning Demon.
-What is your relationship with the blood demon?
I felt my mind go cold at Namgungmyung’s sudden words.
Bloody.
‘Why even here.’
If something happens, it becomes related to the blood horse.
At least, why does it remind me of blood demons even when the brain child has become like that?
So why are you saying that? I’m going to ask Namgung-myeong what to say.
[Until that point…]
Suddenly, Shinnoya blocked it.
[Stop going.]
‘Noya?’
It was strange that he stopped talking, but I had to be taken aback when he told me to stop talking and leave.
It’s nothing else, it’s related to the blood horse.
It seems like I have to listen somehow, but let’s go like this?
I want something like this
[I’ll explain when I get back. Let’s go now.]
‘…’
I could feel it there.
That Shinnoya knew something.
also with.
‘Is it something I shouldn’t have heard here?’
The fact that Noya deliberately cut off his words meant that there was a reason for that.
I had to choose
Do you listen to what I have to say here?
Or believe Noya.
What choice should I have made? Anyway, the answer is obvious.
… See you next time.
I chose Noya’s will. There was no hesitation.
It was a problem in itself that I didn’t believe in Shin Noya after coming this far in the first place.
so. What do you mean?
I returned to my room leaving the three Namgoongs and Woohyuk behind. I couldn’t even hear why Namgoongbia, who was quite important, rejected Brainia.
Both mind and body were exhausted. I wanted to lie down immediately, but I still had to ask.
[…]
As soon as he comes to the room, Noya is silent at the question.
Am I choosing my words or am I not able to?
Noah.
If it was normal, I would have endured it because I thought it was something I couldn’t say.
I had to ask now.
It’s nothing else, it’s related to the blood horse, so you need to know more.
Looking at me, I thought of blood demons.
Noya would know the most that there was no other thing I was sensitive to like this.
so i waited
I had faith that he would definitely give me an answer, so I had to wait.
I thought if I waited, he would give me an answer.
just as expected.
[… kid.]
Shinnoya started talking.
yes.
Ugh.
He opened his eyes as he answered.
It was because there were not one or two unmanned people around.
It was probably a soldier sent by the Poison King.
It wasn’t strange.
It was to protect the guest as it was at the time when the incident occurred.
There may also be a sense of surveillance.
It didn’t matter.
Now that I was able to avoid snow like that.
Since no one else can hear Noya’s words, it wouldn’t matter if he didn’t get shocked to be honest.
‘I just need to be comfortable with myself.’
That’s how I feel at least a little bit more comfortable. Rumors spread that the madman of the Kuga family was talking to himself, and he refused.
Oh, rumors about him being crazy have already spread, so I guess it doesn’t matter.
‘…it doesn’t matter whatsoever.’
The rumor that he was crazy was comfortable.
No matter what he did, he was crazy, so he would let it go.
‘I’ll have to do more crazier things in the future.’
I was confident that it was what I do best.
When you are making a strong commitment like that.
[Before I explain this… I have to say something first.]
Noya started talking.
[You’re a kid.]
Let’s listen. The first words I heard.
[What do you think precious things are?]
It was a bit unexpected.
******************
What is a treasure?
There are many things about justice. say consequently.
They used to call things with special powers attached to certain objects as ghosts.
It also played a role as a symbol of Munpa or Sega, such as Noeah and Gwijeong.
There was once a time when the prestige of a family was determined by the number of nobles it possessed.
How can it be that far with just the number of things?
It was important that noble objects were objects that could not be made by human power.
Why did it become a symbol?
Why does it become a property and maintain its value?
In the end, it was a question of whether or not it could be made by human power.
Special things have value.
The fewer and rarer they were, the higher their value.
If you ask why a ghost is a ghost, it might be because it has a special power.
As the name suggests, it is called precious because it is precious.
Oh, of course…
‘I know there are people who make ghosts later on.’
Five or six years from now. There was one human being who would create artificial demons.
It’s hard to call it a ghost. When it came out, it made a lot of noise.
It was also the birth of a new monster that is not easy to see now.
‘It’s not that important right now.’
So, I wonder if you know what ghosts are?
To say it from my point of view.
… weird stuff.
No more words could come to mind.
Isn’t it?
A sword that spits out a sword body when you put energy into it.
A bandage that never breaks.
Stones of unknown origin, etc.
Just looking at it, it’s full of things that aren’t normal. I couldn’t think of a more fitting word than this.
Hearing this answer, Noya smiled and said,
[You are not wrong. Rather accurate. If so… with another question.]
[Since when do you think ghosts have existed?]
Yes?
Since when do you think the ghost has existed?
That’s it.
‘… I know?’
Since when is this a thing?
From the time I was born, the existence of ghosts was already widespread.
Historically, it has already been around for hundreds of years.
‘… I don’t really remember when I learned about the existence of ghosts.’
I just know that such things exist in the world.
I’ve never heard of how or when it came about.
I’ve never even wondered
It was common sense that there were ghosts.
Together.
The fact that Noya is asking me this question now.
… Are you saying that blood demons and demons are related?
A blood demon that appeared centuries ago.
Does that mean that the ghosts that are spreading now have something to do with it?
Regarding this question, Noya said.
[Not sure. Maybe Myeong-i is like that too.]
He gave a rather ambiguous answer.
‘I’m not sure.’
Not being sure also meant not being able to firmly say no.
… Then why did you mention ghosts?
In addition, I needed an answer to the question of Namgungmyung seeing me and associating him with the Blood Demon.
Regarding this, Shinnoya went through a brief silence as before.
continued talking to me.
[The objects that are now called ghosts are bonded.]
It sounds like an explanation from before.
[This item appeared along with the demon scriptures.]
… What?
I was a little surprised by what I heard.
‘A ghost is something that came out of the demonic scriptures?’
It was the first time I heard about it.
Is that true…?
[How can I lie? I saw it with my own eyes.]
Did Noya see that the ghost is an object protruding from the gates of the demonic world?
Well, if that’s the case, it wasn’t strange.
Because Shin Noya was a man of an era that was starting to get messed up due to the demonic scriptures.
However, the previous content was just strange.
Are you saying that Ma Gyeong-moon then spat out a ghost?
[Could it be?]
Then what is it? How can a ghost be…
[To be precise, a ghost is an object spit out by a monster from the Devil’s Realm.]
… Do you think that’s even weirder?
Does the monster spit it out?
Do monsters spit things out?
Not magic stones, but stuff?
Around the time I was dumbfounded by the rather absurd answer, I had to ask Shin Noya for a contradiction in his words after barely regaining his senses.
If so, you’ve never heard of it before, have you?
If the monster really spits out demons.
How can I not spit it out now?
together.
‘There’s not even a record.’
I don’t know why I’m only getting this information now.
[It might not come out right now.]
Yes?
[Aren’t the white guys coming out anymore?]
… No, that’s what you said.
If it’s not my misunderstanding, the white that Noya is talking about.
‘A white grade monster.’
Strange beings who cursed the terrain even after they died because they were white in color and their power was so strong.
A bizarre existence that no longer appears after the end of bloodshed.
According to Noya, a ghost meant something that came from a white-ranked monster.
[Yes, ghosts are all things obtained by killing them.]
That… how is that possible?
Killing monsters and obtaining goods.
I don’t know if it’s leather, bone, or magic stone, but this is the part that I can’t understand.
It would have been more realistic if I had made a ghost using those by-products.
Did you just pop out?
[I don’t know what kind of English it is. It was just like that.]
If the source of the ghost was like that, many questions arise.
A number of inconsistencies also emerged.
‘…That’s it.’
The birth of a ghost was not important to me now.
If so, what does that have to do with what Namgoongmyeong said?
What mattered was this.
The essence of Namgungmyung’s story of blood demons.
I had to hear it
Not urged, but Shinnoya started talking to me in a calm voice.
[Baby.]
Yes.
[The ghost on your arm. How can you use it? Have you ever had doubts?]
It’s about returning home.
‘… Didn’t he look particularly strange?’
Noya taught me how to write.
It was Noya who said why he wasn’t using it right away.
Doesn’t that mean I didn’t know how to use it, but if I wanted to use it, I could have used it a long time ago.
Even as much as I was in the state of absorbing Noya’s energy. Of course, I thought I could use it for that.
[It’s different.]
But Noya came up with a denial.
[Apart from being able to use return. What I am saying is that the hometown has changed.]
Change.
At that, I raised my arm and looked at the ghost.
‘When it comes to change, do you mean color?’
Magenta energy used by the warriors of the volcano.
The color of the prince was originally such a color. It was now stained blue.
Looking at this, I wondered if I was influenced by my own energy.
[Yes, that means it’s a problem.]
… is this?
[Do you know about the current nobleman’s position in Sega?]
I know.
There are many types of ghosts.
Even within it, the grades were divided.
From items that are called nobles but are not very useful.
There was even a ghost that became a symbol of a group, such as a ghost or a ghost.
yes symbol treasure.
All representative families and prestigious families possessed such treasures.
I also have one, but I’ve never seen it used.
[What do you think is the reason that’s possible?]
That’s… Of course, it’s because the characteristics match.
because of the peculiarities
I found that to be correct.
As you can tell from the name, the brain was a weapon that permeated the brain.
Even if you look at the ghost or the ghost I brought to the volcano, the energy of plum blossoms was permeated.
The same goes for other symbolic treasures.
All of them had an aura that reminded them of their munpa or Sega.
‘It’s kind of strange to see it that way.’
How could that be?
When I think about it, it’s just amazing.
If the ghosts came from the white monsters, does that mean that they took all the demons that matched their energy?
Namgung Myung took it because he used brain energy.
Noya took the pottery from the volcano, so you said?
Around the time I thought it might be something like that.
[…the order is wrong.]
Again, Noya said no.
So what?
[In the first place, there was no such energy in the item that came out.]
No?
This time I was more surprised than before.
Didn’t you feel the energy from the protruding ghost? So what are the ghosts now?
[The brain child in the beginning was just a nameless stick. The ghost was just a white marble.]
Then…?
[Do you know how those ghosts became what they are now?]
It flashed into my mind at Noya’s question.
It was because Noya’s words that the order was wrong were caught.
Just in case, I spit out an answer.
… invigorated?
[Yes, we breathed our own energy into those things.]
But they say that’s surprisingly true.
Noui-ah, who was originally a stick, became a brainchild because Namgung-myung lifted her and energized her.
Returning home meant that it had become a return home because it was filled with the energy of Shin Noya.
‘Is that why there are symbolic demons in each family?’
I made it by putting my energy into an object that had no energy.
Since the energy of the volcano was put into the demon of the beginning, I took it to the volcanic wave.
does that mean
that means that.
I put my energy into this too. Does that mean it has changed?
[Yes.]
Does that mean that the color has changed like this since I put my energy into it?
So, that was a bit of an explanation.
the problem here.
It’s… what’s the matter?
I put my energy into it and the ghost changed to suit me.
What does that mean?
That said, it was such an effect in the first place.
I don’t know what the problem is. The moment I was frowning.
[How can it be a problem?]
Noya tells me with a sigh.
[… Originally, a ghost that has been energized does not change.]
… Yes? Doesn’t it change?
As soon as he heard the words, the ghost lifted his tied arms.
then what is he
Does it make sense to say that there is a guy who has changed openly but he can’t? The color has changed so clearly.
[That’s why it’s a problem. That must have been a problem for Myeong-myeong as well.]
Hmm….
Why would a symbol, a noble object, be a symbol in the first place?
Most of them are things that can’t be used unless you learn the blood relative martial arts from birth or don’t have the energy.
If everyone else can use it, how can it become a symbol?
But if that happens…
‘why can I use it?’
It was definitely odd.
Yield 100 times.
Brain couldn’t do that.
I blew my heat with the arms that were already covered with brain energy.
How should I explain this?
Amid growing my doubts. Noya said.
[… We called such work subordination. It was called that in the sense of infusing energy into a demon and subordinating it to oneself.]
As I listened to the explanation, my head started to spin quickly.
Whether or not Shinnoya knew that day, he just kept talking.
[Not all weapons were very energetic, but the ones that matched well with the user absorbed energy exceptionally well. In that case, other unmanned soldiers with deep air power could not use it.]
Items such as the ghost and the brain would be representative examples.
[But.]
As he spoke, Noya’s voice became somewhat darker.
[There was a guy who casually stole and used those things.]
I had to react to those words.
Because an ominous feeling passed by.
[He was the one who used the monster as if it were his own, as if energy wasn’t important.]
The guy who even used it a few times and threw it away as if he wasn’t interested.
A true monster who didn’t need the power of a demon in the first place.
That was what he was doing.
[Even the monsters that have been changed. Once in its grasp, it changed its appearance as if it had met a new owner.]
… Noya. I can’t believe that…
The person Shinnoya is trying to talk about now.
I felt like I knew who it was.
Is it because you came up here?
The words of Namgung Myung from earlier began to linger in my head.
-What is your relationship with the blood demon?
… the fuck?
Why did Namgung Myung mention blood demons when he saw me like that?
In addition, if I recall that the change of demon was right after I broke away…
[… Yes, he’s right.]
There was only one correct answer to this story.
The true meaning of what Noya was trying to say to me from the beginning.
that.
[Every blood.]
The disaster that I stained that era with blood.
It was said that he was using the same power that the blood demon Dok Go-jun showed.
