Not cold winter. (One)

Heeyoung’s body lay on the floor without strength.

The young and small body of the child was destroyed like that.

Looking at the strangely bent neck and blurred gaze, it was clear that life had already ended.

Under normal circumstances, the opponent would have died.

“It sucks, won’t you wake up soon?”

I said looking at him. Until you touch it with your foot.

The guy still didn’t move.

I could clearly see

I mean, this guy isn’t dead.

I frowned.

‘Why am I seeing this?’

His Danjeon, located a little higher than that, showed a red light somewhere.

It’s strange to see the faint flickering flames.

I knew he wasn’t dead.

Fire-!

It spewed fire from its grip.

With the mindset that if you don’t wake up, you will burn it.

“Then did you keep doing that?”

The moment I was about to fire a magenta-colored flame at him, which I had raised my bet and made it hot.

“ah… wait a minute.”

Crumpled.

Heeyoung’s neck, which had been twisted, began to move with a bone sound.

No, I can no longer call her Heeyoung.

“How did you really know? I can’t figure it out… .”

Not only did the broken neck bones return to their original state, but the friendly young monk’s face also disappeared.

It had become the face of a young girl whom he had never seen before.

F*ck!

“Keuk… !?”

I immediately kicked him in the face.

“Where is the same manipulative, look around.”

She must have thought that if I changed her appearance like that, my heart would weaken.

“Wow… . See how cold this bastard is?”

the guy laughs

He immediately grabbed his neck and lifted him up.

“Are you him?”

A few months ago, the soldiers of the Namgung family assaulted and imprisoned the servant of the Gu family.

All directions pointed to Namgungga, but the culprit actually disappeared.

Because of that, I even went down to the basement to check.

Contrary to expectations, he was still at the entrance.

“What are you doing bastard?”

“Would you like to speak?”

It feels different.

On the other hand, the underground guy is darker and makes you feel like vomiting just by looking at it.

This guy didn’t feel that way.

Even if I felt it, it was very weak.

[…] A bizarre guy. It’s not even a bast face, so it’s easy to change my face like that.]

He just looked at me and smiled.

“Are you going to hold on?”

Even if you break your neck, you can recover it, and it looks like you harpooned your arm last time, did you even get that back?

‘You mean it won’t take any physical damage?’

The wound on his face that had been kicked just before had already healed.

So, will it be the same if I burn it with a flame?

“What is your purpose?”

In this way, physical torture could not be done.

Recognizing that I am now in Hanam’s Shaolin was not an easy task.

“You said it before. Do you think I will tell you?”

He lowered his gaze to the man’s face.

It was the shimmering red light.

If you think about why this suddenly started appearing, it was right after meeting Cheolyoung.

Especially when I recall the feeling that Cheolyoung did something to me.

‘Did you do something to me?’

Otherwise, it couldn’t have suddenly changed like this.

I clamped his throat, but his mouth won’t be blocked.

“Let’s have a good time.”

“Good or good?”

“Yeah, it’s like your house work, and it’s still like that. I didn’t do anything to harm you. You can just skip it.”

[Funny bastard logo. The tongue is really shameless.]

As expected, the guy I faced at that time seemed to be right.

“What if you sneak into someone else’s house on your own and create a mess?”

“So, did you lose money?”

As he said, it was a business that had more gains than losses.

As a result, I received more from there than I gave to Namgung’s family.

But, that was a separate story.

“Even if you catch me, you won’t find out anything. Rather, you made a mistake now, you shouldn’t have let me know that you could notice me.”

I didn’t like the way she giggled and smiled with the face of a girl.

‘What should I do?’

I couldn’t even be tortured.

He was just relaxed, wondering if there was a way to escape.

“Where did you hide Hee-young?”

“What is that, you wonder? I wonder why… . It’s not really a prize to be a knight.”

Maybe he got something out of my question, he lifted the corner of his mouth and smiled.

“Are you worried? I wonder what happened to the original Dongjaseung?”

No, it wasn’t really like that.

Not only did he not have much inspiration, he was a child who did not know who he was.

‘Looking at the reaction, it looks like the original child.’

It meant that the Buddhist identified as Hee-young was actually in Shaolin.

Then, is it impossible to change without a body?

“… Anyway, why aren’t you surprised?”

“Should I be surprised?”

“Isn’t this amazing?”

Crumpled.

Even as he speaks, he constantly changes his face.

They were all people I had never seen before.

It can change regardless of gender or age.

Recalling what happened in the Kuga, it seems that even the body can change.

It’s certainly surprising, but I’ve been through too much to be surprised by something like this.

‘… The important thing is, if I didn’t see the energy, I wouldn’t have known.’

This unknown sensation made me feel as well as see it.

So that the guy could instinctively know that he was the guy at that time.

[Son.]

Then, Shinnoya called me.

‘Yes.’

[Did you say you could see energy?]

‘Yes, I see.’

A shimmering red aura was clearly visible.

[If that’s also a type of energy, wouldn’t it be possible to take it with your own power?]

‘… this?’

I didn’t intend to try it, but even if I did, it would be quite embarrassing.

What is this guy’s energy?

[…] You don’t want to see me like that anymore. If anything, shouldn’t we try it?]

‘… Well.’

In the end, I put my hand to the place where I felt the energy of the guy, thinking that I had to pay for it.

Then the guy shows a strange reaction.

“Well? What are you doing? Why, the body is a girl’s body, so you want to rape it… !”

ugh…

After activating the magic punch hole, surprisingly, its energy shimmers and moves slowly.

“this… what… ! for a moment… !”

‘Oh, this works.’

You can suck this too.

Is it possible to eat all the energy that is just energy?

His expression became urgent as if he did not know this either.

“what… What? what is this… Hey!”

“Yeah, I’m a little curious too.”

“F*ck… . Let go of this!”

It seemed that he was trying to struggle in a hurry, but he was easily able to subdue it if his strength wasn’t that strong.

Or is it that I can’t use my power because I’m messing with my energy?

“Looks like you’re in a bit of a hurry now.”

“… you… What are you, bastard?”

It seems that he has become quite urgent now, but unlike before, his voice trembles.

“That’s what I asked earlier, it looks good. keep doing that.”

I adjusted the sucking speed.

Seeing that there is no sense of heterogeneity in the energy.

His aura seemed to be the kind of aura already in my body.

‘Is it Magi?’

It was most likely, but

‘It could be Dok Go-jun’s energy.’

The possibilities were many.

It seemed like it wasn’t just a bet or pottery.

“not… .No, stop!”

“Then you have to tell me something to stop me.”

“What, what do you want?”

“Think about it yourself.”

Slightly increased absorption speed.

Maybe it’s because I ate too much energy, but now I can control this.

“Information about Dongjaseung… ? He’s alive… ! They put it on the back mountain for a while!”

“I am not interested in that.”

As the bastard told me, I’m not the prize to be a knight.

From the beginning, I have lived a selfish life, and I intend to continue to do so.

So I had to spit out something else.

“Well, then what?”

“Why did you come here.”

“F*ck… .”

At my question, he spat out swear words.

“You didn’t expect me to ask this?”

It was becoming night.

I didn’t intend to stay here for such a long time, so I had to go back quickly.

‘I don’t know if it will be easy because things are intertwined.’

How can I just go after I find this guy?

You have to find out what to find out.

“rather… Ask me about my identity.”

“I’m sorry, but I already know her true identity.”

“… What?”

“The nation of escape.”

His eyes widened at my calm words.

“You guys. how about that… crab.”

“Well.”

The Devil, who must have come from beyond, said that to himself.

I spit it out because I wondered if this guy was like that too, but the reaction seemed right.

“So, tell me why you are here.”

increased absorption rate.

If you keep going like this, you’ll be able to absorb them all in no time.

“this… ! Why are you doing this to me! what am i… what did you do?”

Noisy barking was not heard.

“Is it because of that last time? That’s what you guys were allowed to do too!”

I paused for a moment at what he said.

What do you mean, Kuga allowed it?

“Who permits what?”

“… Shit, of course, isn’t it something you can help out with? I mean think about it.”

If what he said was true, at least he wouldn’t be my father.

Then, is it possible that it is an elder?

I looked at him and asked.

“Do you know who it is?”

“How do I know… I want you to stop!”

It seemed that he didn’t even know there.

“Once that’s done, tell me why you’re here.”

“Because I can’t tell… . It’s not like this… ! I’d rather do something else… !”

Tsk.

I clicked my tongue at his words.

‘It’s forbidden.’

It was a natural thing.

If you were going to do something like this, of course you should have put a ban on it.

It was a little strange to see that even such a non-human would be banned.

Then I should have asked for something else.

“Hey.”

“please… save… help me… . I said I have work to do… .”

“Do you know about ████?”

Just spitting it out seemed to energize the tongue.

Even if I spit it out myself, my ears do not recognize it.

A texture that comes to mind, but seems to be rejected by the world.

It was still disgusting and unpleasant.

[Baby, what did you just say?]

From what I said, Noya didn’t seem to hear it this time as well as the last time.

I tried to straighten my expression while feeling the cold sweat running down my back.

‘It’s hard just thinking about it because there’s no seal.’

A seal that can only be obtained when you become the head of a small household.

In a way, it is an object that can be said to be a treasure of the Gu family.

I didn’t keep it in my bosom, so I thought I would die just to bring it up.

“Uh, why… . Your guy named that… .”

Fortunately, the guy seemed to be able to understand this.

Then, on the other hand, is he saying that he knows about these guys?

“Are you related to him?”

At my question, he finally puts on a dejected expression.

Why are you suddenly making such a face?

“I see… . Was that why you weren’t surprised? You already knew the main body.”

“main body? What do you mean?”

I asked back, but his eyes are gradually losing their color.

“It seems like a disgusting world… . In the end, he had no intention of leaving me behind.”

What should I do, I wondered if I should take my hand off right now.

It seemed that useful information was slowly coming out.

‘Body.’

If it’s correct to call it the main body after seeing the guy stuck in the basement.

What is this guy then?

‘Maybe it feels like an alter ego.’

So, you’re saying this might not be the only one?

If there are many of them, what is their purpose?

“Ahh… .”

While I was lost in my thoughts, the guy let out a voice mixed with lamentation.

“F*ck… I really wanted to kill that old man.”

I slightly removed my hand from the man’s voice.

“Are you going to come and save me? Don’t you think it’s already too late?”

“If you run out of energy, you will die.”

“hahahaha, f*ck… . Did you do it without knowing? I thought you knew, of course. He’s such a dog… .”

I could see lines like gold forming on his cheeks.

It seems that this is also due to the energy being absorbed.

“What are you? Why do you have this kind of power?”

“You know what to do.”

“I’ve been talking hard, can’t you tell me one thing?”

“You never had the right to ask questions.”

I just stare at him in silence.

I wish I had more information to draw from.

As if he had lost his strength, the man with dry lips looked me in the eye and continued.

“… look at the eyes… . I just thought he was a bit of a nerd from Sega. You seem to have something different.”

Sparks flared up again in the palm of my hand.

I’d like to catch it and pull out information a little more leisurely.

It doesn’t seem like that’s the case.

He laughed incredulously when he saw that I had started the spark.

“There is not the slightest bit of mercy. Do you know where this is?”

“Because I am confident that I can handle the aftermath well.”

It had been done countless times, so this level was quite possible.

There was also a place where I raided according to the situation.

“… ha… .”

The lines on his face became clearer.

“You don’t have to, it will turn off on its own.”

As if those words were true, his body gradually began to wither.

‘The energy disappears.’

I’m sure I left some energy behind.

It seemed to burn itself.

Why?

I longed for life like that earlier, but from the moment the name of the guy stuck in the basement came out of my mouth, I lost hope.

“… It’s like f*ck. what life is I also wanted to live as myself at least once.”

“I don’t want to hear a lot of cheesy emotions. I’m in a bit of a hurry.”

At my words, he giggled and laughed.

then talk to me

“The black dragon sword… .”

Crisp.

The moment he uttered the words, his body twisted once and dried up.

‘Looks like the ban broke.’

The last word seems to be the cause of the ban.

It feels like something exploded inside.

For some reason, the sound I had just heard was the tickling sound of a dry tree breaking.

Even the figure he sees now seems to have dried up.

It was not enough to say that the human body was dry.

He raised his bet and waved his hand.

Roaring.

Maybe it’s because it’s a body that has lost energy, or it’s because it’s a body that has dried up.

It burned too easily and disappeared.

I could find out more.

“Did you say it was a black dragon sword?”

The name he spit out just before.

It was a name I knew.

The Black Dragon Sword is the name of a former master of the Safa side.

He was also a soldier who was killed by the swordsman in his youth, long before now.

“Why did he say that person’s name?”

On the other hand, I wonder if it was spit out to deliberately mess up my brain.

I also felt that this might not be the case.

Hwareuk…

After everything was burnt away, there were faint marks on the floor.

As a result, the gimag that had been finely spread around was recovered.

[Son, there’s something left over there.]

I was trying to organize my surroundings a bit more, but Noya told me.

The floor left by him being burned.

For some reason, there was a book that had not been burned alone.

I picked it up carefully.

[What did you think it was?]

‘You have to read it to understand.’

Seeing that it wasn’t burned, it was clear that it was made from the skin of a specific monster.

First, I put the book in my arms.

It was a bit too much to check at this point, so I had to move.

The sun had already set and it was getting dark.

The situation and thoughts I faced, I thought it would be better to go back and do it first.

‘It’s a bit difficult if it’s late… .’

It’s already late, so if it’s later, it’s a really big deal.

Since it came out secretly, there were not one or two nagging to be heard when I went back.

‘First of all, I apologize to Muyeon… . The kids told me to wait at home, so it should be fine.’

First of all, I thought I would only have to apologize to Muyeon.

He hurried his movements, trying to turn his light thoughts around.

After finishing the remaining work, I returned to the lodging I had arranged in advance.

“Gongja. I heard you went to Shaolin with Moyong Sojeo?”

“…”

“It’s just the two of us… ?”

Three pairs of fiery eyes were waiting for me.
