123 – A young goblin. (One)

young goblin. (One)

I passed the road and moved to the central building. Originally, I had to report to the commander-in-chief and then go into the room, but I ignored everything and went.

No one was going to stop me from going in.

When I arrived at the room, I opened it and went in without knocking on the door.

“What is going on?”

My father greets me as before. I keep my eyes on the writing and don’t look this way.

I looked at my father and asked.

“… I heard there was a problem.”

Only then does the father move his gaze this way.

“There was. Who did you hear from?”

“The Namgung Family Head came to visit.”

“Hmm… ?”

As much as yesterday’s incident happened, it seems unexpected that the householder came to visit me directly.

“Did you have a problem with him?”

“Nothing happened. I just came and gave you information.”

“That Namgoongjin?”

“Yes.”

He seemed to have mistaken me for something, but he didn’t say that part.

There was something more urgent than that now.

“I heard that it wasn’t the Namgung’s men who hurt the attendant.”

My father looks at me quietly and answers a little later.

“They say that’s the case.”

“…Have you checked yet?”

“What do you mean?”

“I thought I should check it out.”

Sarak.

I put down the book my father was looking at on the table. From the slight frown in his eyes, I could tell how much his father’s mood had subsided.

“Nine Yangcheon.”

“Yes, my lord.”

“Are you aware that this is a presumptuous statement?”

“…”

“If you’re going to say that to me, don’t you know that you have to come with a position appropriate for that?”

A drop of cold sweat broke out. Even though the bet was not being used at all, the feeling of intimidation that filled the room was heavy.

Dad was talking to me. If you want to get involved, ask for a name tag from Sogaju.

Now, as my father said, I am nothing.

“Namgung admitted that they made a mistake.”

They were constantly saying that it was not them who touched the attendant, but they admitted that they had made a mistake in that area.

This is what Namgung-jin said about making sure there was no damage to me.

“The one who is healing the warriors of the Namgung family that you destroyed is faith, not anyone. Fortunately, he said there was no problem with the treatment.”

Because I made it that way on purpose. Just because I was overcome with anger, I didn’t just break it.

“So, can you say that you are not guilty?”

“no.”

It was something to be acknowledged. Even if things went wrong, I was responsible.

“Even if Namgung acknowledged it, it is a story that cannot help but take responsibility and compensation.”

Even if external causes and responsibilities are handed over, the problem does not go away.

That’s what my father is saying.

“Giving them enough compensation that they won’t feel unfair is another thing, as well as taking responsibility for yourself.”

It was something that could not be refuted.

[Unlike you, who is so shameless, you are a normal human being than you think, your father.]

While taking advantage of the political justification and advantage with Namgung, he talked about definite compensation and responsibility so that no voice came out from behind.

“Never mind the problems that come into your head. Remember, that’s not what you need to see.”

My father did not say anything about the fight with Namgung-jin or the situation that followed.

“…I will visit the servants and the warriors of the Namgung family as soon as possible.”

My father nodded at my words.

Even before my father spoke, it should have been.

[You readily admit it.]

‘What can I do but admit it?’

I don’t know who did it or what they were trying to do by capturing one of the attendants.

It was me who intervened and caused the accident. Even if external sins are eliminated, responsibility does not disappear.

If you find out and say it’s right, you should take responsibility.

[…But, you broke your teeth and twisted your arms to make them heal?]

‘Can’t you play Noya?’

[How do you do that?!]

‘It’s not as difficult as I thought.’

Even if it looks cruel on the outside, it is to make the treatment easy.

To inflict pain and leave no trace.

If you repeat it hundreds or thousands of times, you can master it without much difficulty.

If you see that you use it often even in your present life, it’s funny, wouldn’t it be a useful experience?

‘I need to respond less emotionally.’

It had decreased a lot compared to the previous life, but it didn’t seem like it would go away easily.

“Is this the end of the matter?”

My father started talking as if to leave now, but in the first place, the business hadn’t even started yet.

[Because I was just scolded as soon as I came.]

“…still left.”

“Speak.”

“Taeseondan, who you said you would give it to me the other day, didn’t you say you could do it as another request?”

“It did.”

“Then I would like to ask you another favor.”

At my words, my father makes a strange expression. I said without avoiding my father’s gaze.

“I want to go underground for a while.”

Father’s eyes widen when he hears the business. It was the most extraordinary reaction I’ve seen from my father this year.

I had no choice but to say that I wanted to go underground.

“The reason is?”

“There is something I want to see.”

“You mean.”

“Yes.”

I had to check. Is that the guy Namgung-jin was talking about?

“You said you never wanted to go again, so why are you asking for something like this because of the gust of wind?”

My father, who would normally have told me to do so, was already asking twice.

Damn Kuga’s basement had that meaning.

“It’s just one piece.”

To be exact, I didn’t even need a single angle. Because it was a place I didn’t want to be.

It’s crazy that I’m trying to go there again on my own feet.

‘Even so, I have to check.’

It would be useless to ask my father. My father wouldn’t know his name.

You won’t know. It was I, not my father, who knew more about the underground.

Having organized my thoughts, my father told me.

“Are you saying this even though you know you won’t be able to run away anymore?”

It was a word with many meanings.

“Anyway, you can’t run away, can you?”

Accepting fate was inevitable. It was a story that could not be helped in the end even if it was exhausted and fed up.

‘There is one thing.’

It was the way I had done it in my previous life, and it was something I would never do again.

“… I thought it had changed a lot… . Saying that you have come to your senses is not enough.”

“I haven’t finished it yet.”

That’s why they run into accidents, and it seems that one return is not enough.

I couldn’t do it the second time and I didn’t want to do it, so I had to live harder. Even if it sounds like shit.

“… Are you thinking of going in right away?”

“The sooner the better.”

My father takes something out of his bosom and throws it at me. Upon receiving it, it turned out to be a seal of red light. It’s been a long time since I’ve seen this too.

It was the key to open the door and the token you would receive if you sat in the Sogaju seat.

“…the time is about to cross Jinshi today, and the limit is just one angle.”

“Yes.”

“I will pass the word on to the commander-in-chief. See you later.”

Contrary to what he expected that his father would go in with, he seems to be thinking of sending him in alone.

‘Why?’

If there is no one next to me, it would be better to be comfortable, but it was questionable that he trusted me to this extent.

Even after closing the door to the family room, the biggest question was this.

[What the hell is underground, so there are so many worries.]

‘Have you not seen it?’

[I told you, I didn’t see much.]

Even Noya, who said he looked through his memories, didn’t seem to see anything about the basement.

‘Then you don’t have to wonder.’

[…That’s nonsensical, I just watched it, so don’t be curious? Do you think that makes sense?]

It was a piece of the dark side of the Gu family and part of their karma. The fewer people who know this, the better.

[Did you hide the underground treasure chest?]

‘A treasure? No way.’

It would have been really nice if that was the case. Unfortunately, there is no such thing as treasure in the basement of the Kuga.

Being there was not a treasure, a brilliant and desirable thing.

‘There seems to have been several names, but I can only think of one.’

There was something that the Heavenly Demon saw and said, not anyone else.

-It looks like you dragged it out of hell.

I remembered what he was saying with a smile on his face. Hell, yes, the Heavenly Demon saw the underground and said it was hell.

It was a word that suited him too well.

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

The sun has set and evening has come.

I didn’t see anyone during the sunset.

Because I needed to spend time alone.

When the time came, I followed my father’s words and went to the governor.

The underground location is not too far away. It’s because it’s under the central house where the housekeeping room is located.

Following the guidance of the general, I slowly descended the stairs.

Squeak- Squeak-!

Every time I went down the stairs, the sound that came from here and there gave off an ominous atmosphere.

I came down the stairs that were not that high in a short time.

This means that the underground location is not that deep.

“I will wait here.”

When I came down the stairs, the general said to me.

It means we can’t go together anymore. I left the commander behind me and moved on.

ugh… .

Tinnitus rang in my ears as I passed through the long passage. The curtain must have been opened at this point.

It is also because of this that the general is waiting outside.

Only the blood relatives of the Kuga family can break through the barrier without incident.

Among them, only my father and I.

Even the Heavenly Demon, who said he would destroy everything and stand on top of the sky, couldn’t clear the curtain.

It succeeded in penetrating while taking a huge prize, but in the end I couldn’t break it.

It’s really the same thing that even that kind of existence can’t do anything.

It was a story that felt like something I couldn’t do anything about.

After walking down the street, I finally reached the door. There is one very small empty space in the huge door.

He put the seal he had received from his father into it.

Kiriric.

There was a faint sound of the device moving, and the door slowly began to open.

Wow… !

Wow.

Unlike the size of the door, the opening space was cramped, but there was no difficulty in entering and exiting.

I hesitated for a moment in the empty atmosphere full of darkness, but I closed my eyes tightly and put my body inside.

thud!

As soon as I got inside, the door behind me closed as if I had waited.

Unlike when it opened, it closed much faster.

Hwaaak-!

A light gradually turns on in a space where nothing could be seen.

I didn’t use the Mouthwash Gong. It is the light coming in from the space itself.

By the time the lights were turned on in half the space.

[…what the hell is this… .]

Shinnoya’s trembling voice is heard in my ears. I slightly opened my eyes, which had been frowning because I had adapted to the darkness.

The large space was still there. It is a huge space that I want to make in the basement.

Unlike coming down in a not very long time, the size of the space is huge, as if it came from another space.

Chunk.

bang-! bang-!

The lights come on and immediately there are noises from all directions. The sound of hitting a wall, tapping iron, or scratching something with a fingernail.

A myriad of noises came in as if they were trying to annoy my ears, but that wasn’t the only thing I could hear.

-ah… .

A voice was heard. Not just one voice, but several voices.

-Who is it? who is who who is who?? Who is it?

-It’s not a big goblin, is it a small goblin? ugly ugly ugly

-… porridge… kill… porridge… Porridge… porridge.

-Let it go…let it go quickly!! I’m going to go out and kill them all!!

– Baby… .Come here baby… Wolf… Come on!

[What the hell is this… . Alternative place.]

Bang! bang!

There are dozens of prison-like spaces filling the walls.

Just looking at it makes my mind go crazy. Rather than a complicated situation, it felt like someone was touching me.

-Not through… . not through… not through? is it the same guy?

-My, my, if you let me out, I’ll give you my life… .

[Son… ! This… .]

‘Wait a minute, it’ll only take a moment, so please be quiet for a moment.’

My head was still pounding, but I wasn’t in a situation where I could even listen to Shin Noya’s words.

This is why I didn’t want to come here, but even though I didn’t go all the way to the center and stayed at the entrance, it was at this level.

‘… It still feels like shit.’

In front of the entrance, another door was firmly closed, looking this way.

That place was real. It wasn’t that important here.

But you don’t have to go yet. Because today’s purpose was right here.

I still hear dozens of voices in my head at the same time, but I feel a little better after my body starts to turn.

He sighed once and whispered quietly.

“■■■.”

[…] Well? Baby, what did you just say… .]

Shin Noya stopped talking. Because when I spoke, the sounds I heard from all sides stopped, as if it had been an auditory hallucination.

The silence that came for a while.

And what broke the silence was a voice from nearby.

-What are you?

It was described as a prison, but there are no iron bars blocking it. A thin, thin-looking membrane is barely blocking it.

In the darkness without light, a palm pressed firmly against the transparent membrane.

-Young goblin, tell me what you just said.

As if I had waited, I walked in the direction I heard the sound.

– How did you put my name in your mouth? where did you hear How did know? what did you find

As I get closer, the owner of the voice gradually appears.

[…] !]

Seeing its true identity, Shinnoya gasped for breath.

It will. Because he had the same face and body shape as mine.

Except for being naked, nothing was different.

the guy asked me

– When, when, when did we last see each other?

“It must have been four years.”

Maybe that’s it. If you look at it now, that is.

-that’s right! that’s right. I have no sense of time being here, but isn’t it strange? I saw you, but you couldn’t see me, so why not be surprised?

I looked at him with an expressionless face. Since I don’t respond, he crumples his expression.

-I’m not surprised by this, so how about this?

thud! The guy’s face twists horribly. Not only the face but also the body twisted, and the body shape changed in an instant.

This guy’s face was identical to his father’s.

-Five… ! Oh oh… Five? Aren’t you surprised by this?

That was enough for what I wanted to see. The guy couldn’t get out of the basement.

After checking that, I turned around. Because I don’t want to be here anymore.

-uh? Are you going to cover already? Little goblin, little goblin, wait!

At his call, I turned my head and looked at him.

Then he waved his hand and smiled brightly.

With his father’s face and figure.

– Nice to meet you, see you next time.

I crumpled my face at his greeting. You will see it anyway.

I said nothing. I just walk through the entrance again to get out.

The flames on the walls disappear as if they had waited until after I left, and only silence and darkness remain in the space again.

In the gap, he whispered quietly.

-This goblin is something different. right?

There was no answer coming back.

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

“Uh-wook… .”

As soon as I came out the door, I vomited. I barely stopped anything real from coming out, but the disgusted feeling didn’t go away.

[…] baby.]

After gagging a few more times, I staggered and leaned against the wall.

“… Can’t you feel anything from Noya?”

[What did you mean, those weird voices?]

“… I’m glad you don’t feel anything.”

Noya didn’t seem to feel anything, but I was different.

As soon as I set foot in the space, my mind started to shake. how long have you been In terms of experience, it seemed like it was far over one sikgyeong, but it was probably less than half an angle.

‘Damn it… .’

It was a much more serious feeling than in the previous life, as if there was a side effect of regression.

It’s just that you go to the door.

It seems like something is flowing from my nose, so when I wipe it, my nose is bleeding.

I wiped the blood with my sleeve.

“Hey, I’m tired already.”

So much so that I don’t want to do anything. As I hold onto the wall to support my body, Shin Noya speaks incomprehensible words.

[It’s windy.]

“Yes?”

is it the wind? There would be no place for wind to blow in that tight space.

As if trying to clear up the question, Noya adds.

[I don’t feel anything. Because the concept of senses doesn’t seem to exist in the spiritual body.]

“… then?”

[By the way, I could feel the wind from the door on the other side.]

“Is it the wind?”

[Son.]

“Yes, Noah.”

[Is this something that can be explained?]

“…”

I smiled wryly at Noya’s question. Can you explain it? It’s a really difficult question.

Sometimes Noya cares about me like this.

Even though he seems like a picky and dirty old man, only at times like this.

Thanks to that, it felt like the remorse I didn’t want to feel was piling up.

[Looking at the reaction, it seems like it’s still too much.]

“I can tell you what I can.”

There are many things I can’t say, but I was thinking of doing what I could.

I’ve already been to the basement and watched the short, so there’s no way I can’t help but be curious.

“… However, I want to rest first. I am a little tired.”

Noya didn’t say anything to me. It would be an unspoken consideration to do so.

With a weary step, I met the general who had parted with me earlier and climbed outside.

After handing the seal to the commander-in-chief, he headed straight to the office. Originally, I was supposed to go see my father, but it seemed that I would not be able to meet him as he is now.

I walked along the road at night. In the meantime, the thoughts continued.

‘It wasn’t him. Then who is it?’

As far as I know, he was the only one with such characteristics.

If it’s not him, is it a spy wearing a bast mask? To say that is because I didn’t notice it easily, and it takes people to say that memories seem to have been manipulated as a group.

more and more thoughts

I still have a headache. It was heavy to the shoulders. It seems that something piled up to the point of getting tired of it has been placed on my shoulders.

what’s on my shoulder Up is enough, but why does it feel like there are so many?

[Calm down, breathing is broken.]

‘I’m getting dressed. I’m still working hard.’

so as not to let go.

Perhaps because it is a cold autumn night, my breath leaks out.

Maybe it was because I was exhausted, or because I had mastered chemistry, I felt the cold that should have been difficult to feel.

With slow steps, I finally arrived at the place. When I arrived, the attendants seemed to be talking to me.

I had to give a rough answer and go into the room. I sigh and open the door and go in.

There were two familiar people.

“uh… come.”

“young master!”

It was Wi Seol-ah and Namgoong-bia.

Why? Why are you here?

“… That, that, my father… Go here… .”

Namgoongbia spoke out as if half-excusing herself. It seemed like he knew I would hate it and brought it up.

When I heard that, it seemed that Namgoongjin had done something. At Namgoongbia’s words, Wiseolah, who was hugging a pillow next to her, also began to make excuses.

“Eh, my sister said she was sleeping… .”

I must have seen a picture like this in Volcano Wave. what did i say then It didn’t come to my mind.

The two seemed to be adding something to me.

I didn’t have the strength to listen anymore, so I collapsed into their arms with a tired body. You can feel the soft skin immediately.

“… oh!”

“Broken… .”

[I was so worried about you, but damn… .]

I can hear more voices, but I can’t stand the rushing stress and fall asleep.
