Childhood Friend of the Zenith chapter 31

31 – endure only three times. (One)

Hold on three times (1)

two o’clock before the incident.

This is the point at which I entered the dining table on good terms with the madman Namgung.

At the dinner table, as if only the later exponents who visited the party were invited, the only person who seemed to go beyond the terms and conditions was Dangju Station.

Sichuan prefers strong taste, and it is famous for its strong spicy taste.

The food is really spread out so that the upper legs bend, and the aroma that pierces your nose as soon as you sit down is so strong.

‘I feel like my stomach will turn upside down just by smelling it.’

Of course, weak food was also provided for the guests in between, so I thought I could eat it.

Come all the way to Sacheon and make dumplings again… … .

…maybe not bad?

Dangju-yeok laughs slightly at the people gathered and calls the gasols to eat one by one.

Due to the nature of Dangmun, which uses poison, it was an implicit courtesy to confirm safety when eating with guests.

Of course, I don’t know if that really helps my faith.

“It doesn’t change. Please enjoy it.”

When Dangjuyeok spoke, everyone started eating slowly.

I came here without speaking to Wiseol-ah, so I’m sure he won’t be squeamish, right?

‘….Well.’

I’m not sure, but I’m sure you’re eating well.

Even though I slowly move my chopsticks toward the food, I keep stopping.

It was because of Dang So-yeol, sitting next to Dangju Station and staring at me without eating.

‘…I’ll pretend.’

Why is he doing that again?

Dang So-yeol’s eyes glowed for unknown reasons, and he picked up dumplings and put them on and off again.

Dang So-yeol used to look at me with that kind of look every time we met several times in his previous life.

There was a time when he didn’t talk to me and just kept glaring at me, so I got pissed at him and cursed at him for why he kept doing that.

Embarrassingly, at that time, Dang So-yeol cried out loud in front of me.

No, I was glaring at you, so I said why? why do you want to cry

‘But I have to see him doing that in this life as well… .’

Do you have any regrets about me? It probably has nothing to do with the party.

Don’t you like eating dumplings?

…or do you think I don’t like it?

It’s a bad impression. I’ve heard it all my life, so now I don’t feel anything.

I pretended not to know and barely picked up a dumpling and ate it.

Big!

‘…Shiba.’

As soon as I chewed the dumplings, I almost spit them out.

Why is this so spicy? I was careless and almost went hook.

If you spit out food here, the eyes around you would pour out was a problem.

As I was thinking about what to do, someone next to me held out a glass of water.

It was Namgoongbia.

I was taken aback for a moment, but I was in a hurry so I took it first.

What did you put in it to make the dumplings so spicy? After barely swallowing it, I thanked Namgoongbia.

“thank you. Sozer.”

Namgoongbia nodded slightly as if she was okay, and carefully placed something on top of my bowl.

As I did something, I tore off the flesh of an unknown grilled fish and placed one on top.

I was looking for something like this.

“This is not spicy… .”

“…Yes?”

“I thought you couldn’t eat spicy food… .”

did you see all of that?

“I’m grateful, but why are you suddenly speaking in a flat language… ?”

“…Yo.”

“…”

What? do you want to fight

I wondered if it was a sudden quarrel, so I peeked at it, and it didn’t seem like that was the intention.

Then why is he doing this again?

It’s a bit embarrassing to feel like I’ve been treated like a child, but I don’t think there’s any bad intentions, so there’s nothing I can say.

fast.

Suddenly, when I heard the sound of something breaking, I checked and found that the chopsticks in Namgung Cheonjun’s hand were broken.

Dangjuyeok saw it and said in surprise.

“Ah, these chopsticks must be in bad condition.”

“No, because I tend to use chopsticks a little too hard.”

“I’m sorry, Chenjun, I’ll bring you something else soon.”

“You don’t have to mind. Brother Dong, I’m sorry for breaking things carelessly. I will be careful.”

Then he sets an example and looks at me as if he is weeping.

I proudly stuffed the side dish Namgoongbia gave me into my mouth.

The eyes of the man who saw it trembled.

What is this that makes me so angry? That part was unknown to me.

Ignoring the gaze and choosing only relatively less spicy food, the meal time ended quickly.

I want to stand out after eating, but from Dangju Station’s point of view, it really wouldn’t be an invitation to just eat.

It was a place where Namgung, Gu family, and perhaps other Sichuan literati and family members who were friendly with the Tang family gathered.

Perhaps it was to promote friendship, even if it was not grandiose.

In the conversation after the meal, most of the questions were directed to Chunjun Namgung.

Somehow, since they are the direct descendants of the four generations, who are the pillars of the political faction, they are receiving intensive attention.

Of course, Namgoongbia was also asked a lot of questions, but the questions were soon cut off by her unique short answer and blunt tone without emotion.

‘Yes… .’

‘ah… ?’

‘Well… .’

If you give an answer that doesn’t seem like an answer, how can other people keep talking?

After seeing all the famous families in their own right, they came up to me and asked if we could talk. I just smiled moderately and passed it on.

Talking to so many people would make you feel exhausted and drop out, but Namgung seemed to enjoy it.

‘It’s a vocation, it’s a vocation.’

I can feel someone sitting next to me as I am engrossed in waiting for me to finish.

This time, I wanted something else, and it was none other than Dang So-yeol.

“…?”

Dang So-yeol clears his throat once and then drinks the tea as if nothing happened, but his ears are slightly red.

When I was eating, something seemed strange.

“Dang soo-jeo.”

“to… . Yes?”

“What do you have to say to me?”

“no… ! No, no.”

It’s not, but it looks great.

My ears turn redder as I frown and stare at him slightly.

And as if he couldn’t stand it, he averted his gaze.

Do I look that scary? Then you wouldn’t have to sit next to me.

What is the reason for doing this?

“Kuhm… . big… .”

Dangsoyeol keeps clearing his throat as if his throat keeps getting clogged.

After hesitating for a while, Dang Soyeol quietly whispers to me.

“Old Confucius, by any chance… . Favorite… .”

“Brother Tang, is the training ground down there?”

Trembling, I tried to ask something, but I was drowned out by Namgung Chunjun’s voice.

I looked around and was asking about a large building looking out the window.

I wondered if he was trying to ask me something, so I asked Dang So-yeol again.

“Dang Sojeo, what do you say?”

“…No.”

You’re looking at Namgung Cheonjun with deadly eyes for saying no?

‘If it’s important, I’ll ask again.’

Namgung Cheonjun’s question was answered by the head of the house.

“Ah, it’s a clan-only training ground, didn’t you show it the last time you came?”

“You mean it’s that big?”

“I am constantly managing… . It’s built, but no one actually uses it, because everyone has their own training center.”

Namgung Cheonjun looked at the training ground with a strange face and said to Dangjuyeok.

“I want to see you, can I go?”

“Well… . Then, I think we’re done talking, so would you like to take a look around?”

Is it finally the end?

Now that I think about it, I wondered if it would have been better to run away, as the head chief said, if it seemed like there would be troubles like this all the time.

Wouldn’t that be the most sensible way?

‘I never thought the day would come when I saw Elder Lee and thought he was wise.’

I thought it would never be… .

Following the guide, the inside of the training ground was cleaner than expected.

It was said that it was not used, but it was actually managed neatly.

It looks well four times bigger than the training ground I used to dig verse leaves.

Did it really have to be this big?

‘…Ah, that’s why I’m not using it.’

If it’s too big, it won’t be as effective as it is large.

It’s a training ground with nothing to see other than a really wide one, but it’s probably because they’re all unmanned, so they were the most interested in the faces I saw today.

The floor is a hard material.

It doesn’t seem like it was made with ordinary stones. It didn’t seem like it would leave marks easily.

Is the reason for the wide range due to the characteristics of the gate that deals with memorization? Then, shouldn’t the wall have been made of a material that would stick well?

“It is very spacious.”

“I heard that the ancestors said that it would be good if it was large enough… . I don’t know.”

Namgung Cheonjun said as he looked around a little.

“It’s such a good training ground… . It’s a pity that I’m not using it anymore.”

“There are times when it is more efficient to train individually. This is not an ordinary training room, but it is used as a training ground.”

“Dalian.”

“In the past, there was a time when So-yeol wrote that he would beat me… . They said they didn’t want to engage in sparring just because they were all grown up.”

“Brother!”

Dang So-yeol, who was standing next to him, screamed loudly.

And sneakily look into my eyes

Namgung Cheonjun took out a wooden sword attached to the wall of the training hall and began swinging it a few times.

Putting aside the personality, the name “Rain Dragon” is false or not, and even in the rough-and-tumble movements, you can feel the straightness.

“The meal is just over, so why don’t you try a short steaming session to help with digestion?”

Other people’s eyes light up at the story of the sword dragon handed to them.

I can feel that everyone is excited about something that is not often experienced, such as Namgung’s fight with the Thunder Dragon.

But suddenly?

“How are you? The old small cooperative.”

“…yes?”

I think I heard something wrong.

As if that couldn’t be the case, Namgung Cheonjun was looking at me holding a wooden sword.

“Would you like to try a dance with me?”

“Me?”

I thought I didn’t hear well, but I didn’t. That’s because it pinned me down.

It was an obvious intention.

‘This bastard?’

Maybe he’s more angry than he thought, maybe he wants to relieve his anger somehow.

Of course I didn’t mean to.

I’m just about to say no

“I won’t… .”

“No!”

“Yes?”

Everyone’s eyes cut me off and turned to the one who shouted first.

It was sugar fever.

Dang So-yeol’s face turned red with an expression that he didn’t know why he did that.

Still, he continues to talk as if he wants to say something.

“There will be a difference in age and level between Cheonjun’s brother and Gu Gongja, but how will they do the dance? Then Earl, what if your face gets hurt?”

“Fine. We’re not going to use each other’s skills, and in fact, wouldn’t it be better to do it in the form of a map battle?”

Namgung Cheonjun smiled and said, pretending to be a good person.

All the laughs come out of that word.

map blank?

Do you not use your strength?

If you read my heart, I just need a reason to beat me.

Why is that baby don’t eat me so much?

I asked Namgung Chunjun.

“Is it possible?”

It was a slightly emotional tone.

“What do you mean?”

“If it is a map dance, it means that you will try to teach me, but it means that you are at the level of teaching me without using your inner skills.”

Others are startled by my words and swallow their breath.

To Namgung Cheonjun, the son of Namgungjin, the head of the Namgung family, the Changcheon Sword King, and the current brain dragon of Oryongsambong.

The late Jisoo, whose name has not spread yet, asked if you were good enough to teach me.

At this, Dang-ju-yeok hurriedly intervenes, thinking that the situation is going a bit strange.

“Gu So-hyeop, no matter how much it is, Cheon Jun-yi must be the senior, but the words are too… .”

“The level is overflowing, if you want, I can deal with you without using one foot.”

Namgung Tianjun’s face is smiling, but you can see that his neck is full of strength as he holds back his anger.

“Okay then.”

Tsk.

Back in the day, someone told me three times to be patient.

In a place where you have to know the subject to survive, you are too fiery.

My answer was always the same.

‘That bastard is acting like a f*ck.’

‘If you act like a dick, wouldn’t it be just like a dick?’

‘Then I’ll just live like a dick. How can a person just endure it?’

‘What the hell is that… . No, why do you keep talking like this!’

Isn’t it actually a compliment to say that a martial artist who deals with chemical engineering is like fire?

‘If it’s not a big deal, just endure it three times. Then you will surely be able to survive.’

In the end, I didn’t even bother to listen to it… .

After a while, since these words became the will of the dead man, I have been trying hard to keep them.

Because it was a world in which the saying that you need to know the subject can be deeply recognized.

“I think I’ve endured it three times now.”

In the middle of the training ground, Namgung Cheonjun and I stood facing each other.

I think I endured about three times that Namgung kept crossing the line.

is not it? Have you endured more than three times? If it’s more patient, I’m glad I used it.

The guy was still smiling.

It is an expression full of confidence that he will never lose.

Or maybe he’s excited about being able to beat me legally.

“I will yield to the seon-gong.”

“Yes.”

I had no intention of giving up. It’s a leap that hasn’t been put on a bet in a long time.

I slowly lifted the sword he had put down.

It must be a slow lift as if teasing part of it.

He came closer and stretched out his fist. It is an ordinary government with no tricks to do.

-As expected.

The face of Namgung Cheonjun, who nodded his head to avoid it, said that.

I wave my arms without thinking. I didn’t mix anything like a feast of the flesh.

‘I still can’t.’

Only the sound of struggling and cutting through the air is heard.

Namgung Cheonjun, who lightly avoided the kicking following the regime, said.

“You seem to have seen it all, so I will begin. The old small cooperative.”

I didn’t answer.

Namgung Tianjun immediately swung his sword.

As expected, fast and sharp.

“Five… .”

“I don’t use my energy, but to be that fast… .”

Admiration leaks out among other late exponents who were watching.

Even in their eyes, Namgung Cheonjun’s swordsmanship was worthy of admiration.

The semicircle that lines the air is unshakable. At the same time, it captures the speed and sharpness of Namgoong.

One sword, two swords, I narrowly avoided the sword. But there was no embarrassment on his face.

It must have been the sword that was intended for that purpose in the first place.

The strength of Namgung Cheonjun’s lower body goes into it.

You can see the movement of the shoulder side along the neckline.

Without time to think, Namgung Cheonjun launches the third sword attack.

As expected, the previous move was fake, and this was the real thing he was aiming for.

The sword aimed at my shoulder, not the head, which could be finished in one blow.

I saw it and reached out.

grasp!

Took-!

“…uh?”

It was the sound that came out of Namgung Cheonjun’s mouth.

He examines my hand. The wooden sword he was holding was rolling on the floor.

“…what.”

I looked at Namgung Chunjun with bored eyes.

There was no more appreciation for his movements.

“What are you doing?”

At my question, Namgung Cheonjun’s eyes tremble a little.

I dare to say

It would be me who knows more about Namgung’s sword than the current guy.

How many times have you struggled to stop the magic sword after it turned once?

How many times have you seen the sword Namgungbia wielded in the night?

At that time, her sword had already transcended the chronic weakness of Namgung.

Of course, Namgoongbia is just watching with a stupid expression.

She is none other than the best of the Namgung who annihilated the Namgung by jumping over the current family head.

Compared to the sword wielded by the Demon Swordsman back then… .

Namgung’s sword, which is now shown by Namgung Cheonjun, is just an empty shell full of weaknesses.

Not to mention, if I didn’t have the strength, there was no reason why I couldn’t win.

I said looking at the embarrassed guy.

“Aren’t you going to pick it up?”

then i go
