184 – Cheonan. (2)

Cheonan. (2)

‘Looks like he’s not hiding it.’

The fact that it allows you to know this much is itself.

It was causing me that the host wasn’t hiding it from me.

If you think about it just by listening to the chief, Yooseong is an organization created by the alliance to prepare for bloodshed.

We, the talented late exponents, hope to be among them.

And that’s where Jang Seon-yeon belongs.

‘Jang Seon-yeon.’

When I thought of him, the idea of blood demons immediately came to my mind.

said the boss.

If you belong to a meteor, you will get a lot.

‘You can look at a higher place?’

Let’s think about the energy that the blood demon gave me through Jang Seon-yeon.

I couldn’t help but have doubts.

Where did Jang Seon-yeon get this?

Not to mention that Namgung Cheonjun also had the same energy.

‘Chunjun Namgung, maybe… .’

If even Nyolong belongs to the meteor.

As for the source of that energy, it felt like I could see a little bit of a blur ahead.

‘I am not totally sure.’

If the two belong to a group called Yuseong.

‘Did you get the energy of the blood demon from the meteor?’

This is just a delusion after all, but for some reason I couldn’t shake this doubt.

“Looks like you need some time to think.”

the boss said.

Leaving behind my flood of thoughts, I answered to the host first.

“… Yes, sorry.”

“no. Since I called you in such a hurry, it’s good enough.”

I looked into the eyes of the host who spoke in a benevolent voice.

‘Does Cheonan also know about blood demons?’

If, as I thought, blood demons were related to a group called Yuseong.

Naturally, I could only explain that the head of the room was also involved in it.

‘If not.’

I’d rather not.

No matter how dirty the Meng was, it was an unpleasant fact that Shaolin, who was called the spirit and eye of the right sect, had been corrupted like this.

Even though I know it’s already too late in the first place.

[It’s said to be expected, but it seems you’re already convinced.]

‘…’

[Did you say Cheonan? The nickname of that nerd.]

At Noya’s words, I affirmed inwardly.

[Cheonan… .]

It was a strange voice.

‘Why is that?’

[Well… . no. Let’s talk about this later.]

It sounded like something was going on.

If I could see the true face of Shinnoya, he would probably have the same expression as me.

Pretending to be worried, I took another sip of tea.

‘It would be dangerous to ask the host directly about the Blood Demon.’

Now I couldn’t give the slightest hint that I knew anything.

“As you said… . I want to think about it a bit.”

“Okay, I’ll give it to your parents in a separate letter from me.”

Does sending a letter to your father mean that it doesn’t matter too much if you talk about it outwardly?

‘I don’t know what’s on the inside, but on the outside, it means that I have the justification to prepare for bloodshed under the eyes of Cheonan.’

Recalling the headmaster’s words, it seemed that his father knew about the organization Yuseong.

‘I’ll have to ask when I get back.’

I wonder if my father will answer this.

“Isn’t the person next to you also the same?”

The host’s question was directed to Namgoongbia. Even in the middle of the conversation, Namgoongbia kept silent without saying anything.

He turned his gaze towards me and asked.

“… are you going to do it?”

I had to cough for a moment at Namgoongbia’s question.

I didn’t know you would suddenly ask me.

“You said you were worried. why do you ask me that?”

“… Then me too… .”

In the first place, Namgoongbia seemed unmoved, probably not interested in the story.

Rather than talking about meteors and whatnot.

I want to go back and swing my sword right now.

She was that kind of person originally, and she had only been wielding a sword all day after she got enlightenment the other day.

It was amazing that I could do that right away as soon as I got better.

“It drags.”

Perhaps because of Namgoongbia’s words, the host laughs.

In a way, it was rude behavior, so I had to think about how to deal with it.

“Okay, take it easy.”

Fortunately, the host didn’t seem to mind.

“I must be busy, but I’m sorry the old man took up your time.”

“no. I also apologize for not being able to give you a good answer.”

It was a short conversation, but the host didn’t say anything as if he had no further business.

It seemed to ask her to get up comfortably, so I got up with Namgoongbia and bowed to the host.

I got up and headed for the door.

“I wish we could be together. for the future.”

As I was about to open the door and leave, I stopped for a moment at the host’s words.

‘together.’

I had to pay attention because my expression was going to harden without my knowledge.

Did Bia Namgoong look at my expression?

Gently wrap your arms around me

As if to calm down.

Perhaps because of that, his voice, which seemed to be shaking when he spit it out, seemed to calm down a little.

“Thank you for your words.”

His voice, which he spoke with an effortless smile, luckily did not show signs of being mixed with emotion.

widely-

When I closed the door and came out, the pleasant sky was still welcoming me outside.

‘after… .’

Only then did he let out the sigh he had been holding back.

The meeting with the host was so sudden and embarrassing.

Feeling the wind, soft sleeves appeared and wiped my forehead.

“sweat… .”

“What sweat is sweat?”

It was because the body contained the chemical energy, so it was a body that did not rise unless it moved really violently.

‘… is not it? Did you spill some?’

If so, I wondered if it was because I had been thinking too much lately with my head not spinning well.

“What if you get bruised there like that?”

When I spit out words to Bia Namgoong with a joke, Bia Namgung tilted her head.

It was as if he had never been bruised.

“Did you hear what I was talking about?”

“yes?”

“… no. done.”

Since when did you lose your mind?

From what I can see, it was probably from the moment I entered the room.

Leaving behind Namgungbia, who was yawning and expressing her drowsiness, she walked among the Shaolin trees.

‘I didn’t expect to meet the host.’

I was able to get useful information from this short conversation.

Most of it was speculative, though.

‘Hyeolma is related to blindness.’

It’s also much deeper than expected.

Noya asked as he was slowly walking forward.

[It was called Cheonan.]

‘Yes.’

This is the question Noya asked during the conversation with the host earlier.

[Did they say that it was the nickname of Shaolin’s master from generation to generation?]

‘you’re right.’

I asked back to Shin Noya’s question this time.

Because something was strange.

‘Noya, why are you asking that… .’

[This is the first time I’ve heard of it.]

At those words, I immediately remembered that Cheolyeong’s nickname was not Cheonan, but Hwangabulyeong.

‘Did Cheonan not exist then?’

The truth is that I haven’t been looking for it.

It was something I didn’t even have to look for.

Since it was called Cheonan from generation to generation, there was no reason to question it.

Because the awareness was so melted.

[As you expected, the blood demon is playing tricks in the blind right now.]

‘It’s just an estimate.’

[Ha, you’re not expecting it, are you saying that when you’re confident?]

‘Maybe, isn’t it possible?’

Noya snorts at my words.

[Puck.]

‘…’

[It’s just that I’m worried.]

‘What do you mean?’

[The fact that the eyes to see the future are truly there. It also means that it is passed down from generation to generation in Shaolin.]

I thought I knew what the worry was in Noya’s story.

‘… Do you think that could be related to blood demons?’

It was enough time for several hosts to change.

Those who had Cheonan for generations contributed greatly to the peace of Murim. Wouldn’t it be a thought that had gone too far that there was a bloody demon entwined there?

Noya seemed to know about this, so he kept talking behind his back.

[It’s just an illusion.]

‘Cheonan and Blood Mara… .’

Noya’s words were like saying that the blood demon held the Cheonan or that the blood demon was covering the chief’s eyes.

If that happens, not only Shaolin, but the entire Murim alliance may already be playing in the blood demon’s grasp.

If you immediately think of Jang Seon-yeon, the son of the leader, it will be a little more credible.

‘Then it becomes too difficult.’

The Heavenly Demon alone is a disaster, but if it were not an ally, at least even Maeng, whom I thought would stand against the Heavenly Demon, was swallowed up by a being called the Blood Demon.

It was said that there were really only enemies everywhere.

‘Really, it might be better to join hands with Sapa.’

In the first place, I didn’t have the arrogant thought of capturing the Heavenly Demon alone.

Having seen and experienced the Heavenly Demon, I knew very well that it was nonsense.

[So you asked, what are you going to do?]

He wet his dry lips with his tongue at Noya’s question.

It was not something to make short judgments and conclude.

In fact, there was one road that wasn’t bad. I was still thinking about it.

Coincidentally, the other side laid the ground rice first, so it wasn’t bad to try.

I answered Noya bluntly.

‘Since they called me, why don’t we go first?’

[Well?]

Although Noya reacted as if he did not understand my words.

[…] Child, you can’t be.]

It seemed that he had read his mind right away.

‘Everyone is asking me to come. Wouldn’t it be worth a visit?’

If you don’t know about the enemy, the fastest way to know is right in front of you.

It means entering the meteor with your own feet.
