55 – Maehwa Sword Dragon. (5)

Plum Blossom Sword Dragon (5)

The first night came after starting to accompany the volcanic wave.

It was an unexpected companion, but in fact, going together did not change much.

In fact, the volcanic wave side took care of food and sleeping on their own.

Rather, it would have been a loss for them to move at our speed.

‘Because it’s something I have to take care of even though I’m enduring that.’

Considering the value of the ghost, it could have been enough.

I don’t know if it’s a Sega or a Munpa, but at least the Gupailbang and the Sadaesega must have at least one ghost.

This, in the end, was a problem related to symbolism.

‘The fact that I bet on such a thing… . Oh yeah.’

If this is so, wouldn’t the ghost old man, who gets angry just by bringing up the topic of the volcanic wave, say a word about this part?

[Kuhm… .]

“…walking is a problem, but there’s also a problem with the humans who brought it after picking it up.”

Does it make sense to accept this just because it’s all for you?

It was obvious that Elder Lee had been accepting it, exposing his white teeth.

‘…Because of that, I was even captured by a ghost.’

[What a mess… !]

“That’s all right, so you said you had something to ask.”

In the middle of the night, on the pretext of training, I walked out to a place a little far away.

I was able to spread my skills, albeit very weakly, because I had improved my skills in the subject.

When the preparations are finished, the ghost… .

Oh, what should I call it?

[Call it the Fire Line Sword Daehyeop.]

“I will simply say Shin Noya.”

[…Really, you don’t even listen to me, at least it’s not Shincheol, what is Shinnoya, someone calls Doho that way.]

“Wouldn’t it be better to call you Ghost Master?”

[Just call me anything… .]

Shinnoya sighed in resignation.

Whether or not he really became a hero of the past, Volcanic Swordsman, or not, that wasn’t the point.

‘Is there any damage to me or not?’

It was that part that mattered.

I didn’t want to feel the feeling of having two minds attached to one body, and I didn’t want to feel the anxiety that my body might be taken away in the process.

I want to escape if possible, but it wasn’t like a way came out of nowhere.

‘Right now, the same goes for controlling the energy inside the body, it seems like a dangerous situation.’

Is there any way to deal with that part?

It’s a painful situation.

As he chewed his tongue in his mouth, Shinnoya’s voice interrupted.

[You seem to be thinking a lot.]

“Yes, isn’t it a troubling situation?”

Anyway, if you could know the thoughts at all, you would know what I’m worried about.

There’s no need to hide it.

“How are you going to get out of the body?”

[If I knew that, would I stick to you, that the children of the volcano are scattered around me now.]

Shinnoya sniffed and made a noise as if he was annoyed, then spoke again.

[Don’t worry unnecessarily, I don’t care about your body.]

“It’s not that easy to believe, is it?”

[What if I don’t believe it, is there any other way?]

“…If you look for it, it won’t come out.”

[Don’t look at it easily, it looks like you’re worried about moving the bet, but hiding it was the limit, so don’t worry.]

“…what did you do to knock me out then?”

If what Noya said was true, how would he explain the intense pain the moment he faced the sword dragon?

It was a disgusting sensation to the point of being creepy.

To my question, Shinnoya said as if he was dumbfounded.

[That’s not what I did. You son of a bitch.]

“Yes?”

[You’re free to believe it or not, but isn’t it strange that you want to be fine with such a carnal thing in your body in the first place?]

did you have

“What do you mean I had it?”

To my question, Shinnoya answered as if he was surprised.

[…Oh, that’s right, I didn’t even know I was holding it.]

“I need to explain what you mean…”

[You seem to have answered enough, so now it’s my turn. Shouldn’t there be something to be gained from each other?]

tsk… .

Seeing how I feel, I don’t think I have any thoughts to tell you.

An old man like a serpent, no matter how you look at it, there seemed to be a lot of problems with the famous volcanic sword.

In particular, contrary to what was said, the temper is open…

[I guess you don’t want to hear it.]

“It’s not… but the wide-minded and endless seems to be the symbol of Taoism.”

A rotten man… why is the inside of a nobleman so narrow?

[…I can feel your thoughts, so it doesn’t mean much anyway.]

“…You say you’re asking.”

It was useless chatter with each other.

I had to stop talking about unnecessary things and get to the main point.

[There is something I want to ask you.]

“Yes, ask.”

[Do you know how many generations of the Volcano Sect’s long masters are there?]

Now, if you are a master of the volcano faction…Are you referring to Maehwaseon?

He was one of the few swordsmen who could be compared to the greatest swordsman in the world when it comes to swords.

Although, inside of me, I have become a nobleman who sells ghosts for drinking.

Anyway, how many generations has Mae Hwa Seon been a long writer?

“I don’t know.”

[…?]

“…No, I don’t usually wonder how many other people’s literary masters there are.

[This is so… . No, no. Then don’t ask me anything else.]

“Yes.”

Shinnoya asked me with a more serious voice, not the same one he had just before.

[What happened to the blood demon?]

“Yes?”

Blood horse?

I couldn’t help but stop thinking for a moment at Shinnoya’s words.

Are you suddenly bloody? I had to think for a while about what the word that came out of nowhere meant.

“What do you mean?”

[This is the literal meaning. Don’t you know about blood demons?]

“I don’t think you know, the story you’ve been hearing until you get a scab on your ears is about the Blood Demon War.”

[…Fortunately, it seems that the story remains in later generations. That’s what I’m asking. What happened to the end of the Blood Demon?]

“If you’re the Volcanic Swordsman, isn’t it more strange not to know?”

A hero who stopped the blood demon and came back to the light of the midfield.

Afterwards, the person who made the volcano stronger asks about blood demons?

[Please answer me first. What happened to the blood demon?]

“As for what remains as a record, the blood horse is dead. It was you who stopped it, no one else.”

[If it were you?]

Who they were, they were five absolute masters, including Hwasan Seongeom.

As I named each one, Shinnoya spoke with a relieved voice.

[…Fortunately, I must have been there too.]

“I’m more curious at this point, why are you asking me this? Is the Volcano Sword really right for you?”

[I am a volcanic swordsman, Shincheol, just.]

Shin Noya spoke again, but hesitated for a moment.

[The last fight with the blood demon, I can’t remember that much… .]

“…what is that?”

You don’t remember?

[Looking at the doho of a child named Shinhyeon, you can tell that a lot of time has passed, and looking at your thoughts, you can see that I was still alive after I stopped the blood demon.]

“Yes.”

[But…why do I have no memories after that?]

“Then you don’t even know why you were possessed by a ghost?”

[If I knew that, would I have done this to you?]

“ji… . Did you know you were doing something stupid?”

I couldn’t bear to say it was a joke, so I refined my words.

If you listen to what Shinnoya said, it seems that there is a gap in your memory.

Is it a side effect caused by being covered in ghosts?

Why do all the things that are intertwined keep coming loose?

‘…Is it karma?’

If it was karma, there was nothing to say.

If you twist it, you shouldn’t have lived right.

It seemed like someone was saying that to me.

[I don’t know… .]

“Anyway, the Blood Demon is dead and the Volcanic Wave is maintained, so it’s a good thing.”

[Your simple logic seems to be lacking as a human being, but seeing it like this makes me envious.]

“Why are you cursing at me?”

[…You’re quick to notice again.]

…a damn old man.

“Now, please let me know if I have any questions.”

[What are you talking about?]

“That I have, what does that mean?”

What Shinnoya said kept haunting me.

What do you mean you are holding?

Noya laughs as if my worries are funny.

“Why are you laughing?”

[Do you think it will change if a guy who doesn’t believe in me listens?]

“But why not listen first?”

[A shameless guy, he doesn’t even deny it.]

“You should know everything anyway, so why hide it?”

It felt comfortable as long as it wasn’t bothersome acting.

Since he was wearing a tired expression, Shinnoya said.

[I don’t know what’s in your body.]

…what?

Didn’t you just say that you knew it well?

He was also a scammer…

[Ah, didn’t I tell you to wait a bit?]

“Ah, yes.”

[From my point of view, it’s more amazing that you don’t feel anything.]

“What do you mean?”

[You mean you don’t feel anything even after having such a violent guy?]

Is it violent? Are you talking about mouth-watering whistles?

It’s such a heinous mental method, so there’s no problem even if you say that.

Shin Noya’s words felt like explaining animals rather than simbeop.

[I don’t like the fact that I entered the body, and I tried to go wild at random, so I put it to sleep on my side. You should be grateful, sweetheart.]

“…was it asleep?”

[Even now, if I loosen the leash, they will go wild saying that they will bite here and there. Would you like to try it?]

As soon as Shinnoya finished speaking, the same intense pain as before suddenly came.

A terrifying sensation of sharp pain piercing through the body.

“Turn it off… !?”

I can’t breathe properly and one knee is in pain.

When you can’t control your staggering body and try to let go of your mind.

[Do you understand now?]

As soon as Shinnoya’s words were heard, the intense pain disappeared in an instant.

Then I was able to breathe heavily.

“Hoo-wook, whoo-wook… . this… . what.”

I feel my surprised heart beating much faster.

[Looking at the condition, it seems that the energy contained in the ghost has stimulated him. Didn’t I tell you to eat it in moderation?]

“Didn’t you say you didn’t eat it on purpose… .”

No matter how unaccustomed the body is to suffering, it’s almost like a few seconds of suffering.

‘I think I got it wrong.’

Is it a matter of the law? Or is magic a problem? Or is it something else?

Or maybe Shin Noya is lying.

I still have a long way to go, but I felt like I was caught in a strange thing.

Accidents happen every time I go, maybe this is my fault.

[You can feel the doubt, even after coming here, it’s a great achievement in many ways.]

“Stop reading that.”

[Blame you for thinking it’s easy to read, and you’ll know at this point.]

He listened and undid the curtain that had been spread around him.

Later, the escorts would come looking for them.

[It’s not that I’m stuck with you right now. I also don’t like it, but I’ll endure it, so don’t mumble and find a way to solve this situation.]

“How do you mean?”

[Didn’t you say you were going to the volcano? So am I. Ghosts also originally belonged to the volcano, so there might be an answer there.]

So, stop mumbling, I felt like this. Is there any way to go to the volcano?

I sincerely hope that you will be there.

….I didn’t want to keep hanging out with this bad-tempered old man.

[Who is this rotten guy… !]

Ignoring Shinnoya’s words, I went to the camp first.

It’s like something that’s trying to run amok in the battle.

Shin Noya, who is putting it to rest, is also questionable.

…In the end, there was nothing that could be solved in the current situation, so he said that he had to go to the volcano first.
