89 – treatment. (2)

treatment (2)

I sat down and waited patiently, and after a while I opened my eyes.

“I heard you were hurt… but fortunately you seem to be fine.”

The dry voice of the sword.

I just nodded my head at her worried words.

I don’t know what to say in what voice.

First of all, I had to hide the complicated inside while looking at the magic that was visible inside the body of the sword.

“If I had been seriously injured, my heart would have hurt a lot. I’m so glad…”

“… Thank you for your concern.”

“no… . Rather, I am sorry that I brought someone who was busy to come to me in a sick state.”

“Fine. Because God said you can move comfortably now.”

As he said that, his gaze was still looking elsewhere.

‘The demonic energy is too thick.’

Dark and deep aura compared to the trivial aura possessed by the nocturnal enemy.

As if…it was very similar to the one the Heavenly Demon possessed.

It’s not like they’re similar, it’s safe to say they’re the same.

I couldn’t be mistaken about that part.

‘Could it be that he’s the chronic disease that’s slowly killing the swordsman?’

If Magi is the culprit, why does Swordsman have something like that in his body?

After the things I didn’t know in my previous life came back, I was showing too many things.

Had the swordsman already faced the Heavenly Demon in this life?

Not everyone who possesses demonic powers becomes a demon.

Right away, the savage or the Dark Night Palace did that.

The sword in front was like that.

If there is a difference, it is that the beast is slowly accepting and becoming a demon.

The difference was that he was enduring the rampaging demons while rejecting the sword.

‘I can’t believe he’s running amok like that and he’s not even showing off.’

Swordsman was a master of martial arts, so the bet he had must have been pure pottery.

Even so, in front of Magi, he would be caught and eaten as if he was helpless.

I could tell just by looking at it.

Swordsman’s body, weakened by demonic energy, was able to observe the swordsman’s level even at my level.

There wasn’t much left to bet after the sword.

Moreover, it can be seen that even he is trying hard to stop the madness from running amok.

Despite enduring the arduous process, the swordsman did not frown once.

It would be painful even now.

The swordsman looked at me and said with a sad voice.

“It would have been really nice if I had seen you a little earlier, but I’m sorry I couldn’t buy you a proper meal… .”

“… no.”

The swordsman continues to apologize to me.

I couldn’t figure out what the heck was so sorry about.

No matter how close I am to my mother, in the end, she and I are strangers.

Even in such a situation, she took him, saying that she would be responsible for saving the life.

For me, that was enough.

If I knew how to endure it, it would be enough.

‘Honestly, I couldn’t stand it properly.’

Swordsman looked at me and hesitated for a moment before speaking carefully.

“… Can I hold your hand for a moment?”

“You mean your hand?”

It was sudden, but it was an insignificant request, so I reached out to the swordsman.

In front of me, the wrinkled hand of the sword came into view.

“Sorry for the wrinkly hands.”

‘… Apologize for something like this.’

Maybe the swordsman really just wanted to say sorry to me.

I thought so and carefully grabbed the swordsman’s hand.

Geomhu smiled dejectedly at the hand that was holding it and said.

“I… . If it had been healthy, it would have been great.”

It’s like standing at the end of life and letting go of emotions one by one.

I don’t know what to say at a time like this.

Should I just remain silent?

Should I even say that the present image is okay?

After thinking about it for a while, I realized that I wasn’t keeping my mouth shut, so I wanted to say something.

I’m just trying to organize the words in my head and spit them out.

Swoouuu-!

“… !”

“Ugh… !”

I shook off the hand that Geomhu and I were holding at the same time.

Immediately, the swordsman looks at his hand and mine alternately with a surprised expression.

It has to be, since the demonic energy that was in the body of the swordsman just flowed into me.

‘… this… .’

By the time I came to my senses, looking at the demon inside my body, I thought it was right that I was half thinking.

Somehow, something resembling the Magi I saw in the Night Blood was in my body.

Now that I’ve come to see it, it doesn’t look like it, but it’s a bloody demon.

‘… Did he really absorb it?’

Not a magic stone, but even absorbing someone’s demonic energy?

‘This is also the power of the magic drill hole?’

Is it really so?

It’s something I’ve never experienced in my previous life, so it must be because something has changed.

The very slight amount of demonic energy that flowed in from the Sword Master was immediately burned in the Mouth Flame Garnish and purified.

The Magi, which should have been absorbed from the bloody enemies, also seemed to have been completely purified.

“… This.”

Swordsman couldn’t speak properly as if he was embarrassed by the situation just now.

It seemed that he had no idea what was going on.

I looked at it and thought. If it is possible for me to absorb the demonic energy of the sword.

‘perhaps… .’

I wondered if it would be possible to save the sword.

While I was thinking about that, the door to the cabin opened with a bang.

“What are you doing?”

it was godly

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

Hey profit! Whiik!

The sound of a wooden sword cutting through the air was sharp.

The sound that used to be dull and soft has now become sharper.

Gu Ryeong-hwa herself felt such a change, but it all felt futile.

‘Half a step forward, the tip of the sword to the top.’

shhh!

A shallow bet is placed at the tip of the outstretched sword.

It was not the application of a bet, but the effect that came about thanks to the precise movement linkage.

Even with such a good result, Gu Ryeong-hwa’s expression was still not good.

‘… What can I do with this thing?’

Since that day, I have repeated more arduous training, but my mind seems to have not been trained that way.

I keep thinking of myself trembling at the sight of the enemy in front of me.

I knew intuitively that I couldn’t win.

However, that is a different story.

Instead of losing or winning, I felt so ashamed of myself for running away from the pride and responsibility that a martial artist should have, as Master always said.

Bia Namgoong stood in front of her with a sword, saying she would protect herself.

She, too, would have known that she would not win, and would have also had fear in the face of death.

Still, she didn’t hesitate.

‘… I, I… .’

While imagining the back of a person who raised a sword to protect himself.

Gu Ryeong-hwa closed her eyes tightly at the feeling of guilt hitting her neck.

‘You’re going to smoke plum blossoms while not knowing how to run away?’

Let alone blooming plum blossoms, he would never be able to become a proper martial artist at this rate.

Gu Ryeong-hwa recalled Guyangcheon.

I heard that Goo Yang-cheon solved the problem that not only herself but also Namgoong-bia could not do anything about it.

How could that be, that indolent and selfish person.

The last time I saw it was probably around this time last year.

Guyangcheon at that time was still the same.

Gu Ryeong-hwa clearly remembered the appearance of spewing thorns in all directions without doing anything.

It was at that time that he finally let go of Guyangcheon.

‘… How could such a person?’

Is the energy rising slowly from suspicion or jealousy?

Gu Ryeong-hwa swung her sword again.

This time, I tried to be stronger than before.

He had to focus on something to avoid realizing his incompetence.

I was so engrossed in training that I stopped when I was about to collapse from exhaustion.

To be precise, he wielded it until he was forced to stop.

I stopped training only when my arms were shaking and sweat dripped down the tip of my chin.

For several days, Gu Ryeong-hwa had been driving herself by reducing her sleep.

“now… . I have to go see Master.”

He remembered his teacher who had returned to the Volcano for safety.

When he heard that he had escaped danger and saved his life, the master had tears in his eyes.

He said he was sorry for being a poor teacher.

Master was not inferior.

The only one who was ugly was himself.

I was moving to wash my body and change clothes, but I met someone’s eyes in front of me.

“oh.”

“…”

The opponent was Young Poong.

In many ways, he is a person who is uncomfortable with the old age.

As soon as Young Poong saw Gu Ryeong-hwa, he had a courtesy.

This is because Gu Ryeong-hwa was clearly a disciple of Lee Dae-jung.

“Accident, it looks like you’re training.”

Gu Ryeong-hwa did not answer Yeong-pung’s question.

He nodded slightly and passed Youngpoong.

“Excessive training is not very good… .”

“… Never mind.”

Gu Ryeong-hwa, who was just about to pass by, eventually spat out sharp words.

Even thinking about it, he was too sensitive.

“sorry. It was off topic… !”

At Gu Ryeong-hwa’s words, Young-pung immediately apologized.

After hearing the words, Gu Ryeong-hwa moved on again.

I didn’t want to meet Youngpoong’s eyes.

Although he was a disciple of Lee, he was still a kid who hadn’t even received a doho.

Unlike him, Youngpoong was the youngest plum swordsman.

‘… If it was that person, would it be different from me back then?’

At least he wouldn’t have run away trembling.

Gu-ryeong-hwa’s feet naturally sped up at the creeping sense of entitlement and guilt.

Taking advantage of the absence of people, I finished washing my face and changed into clean clothes.

The thoughts I had earlier seemed to be relieved a little at the thought of going to see Master.

In contrast to his tired body, his steps were light.

Climbing up the mountain, you can already see the cabin.

Gu Ryeong-hwa calmly took a breath and approached the cabin, in case he was found out that he was tired.

-… what did you say now?

As I approached, I heard God’s voice.

Judging by the volume of her voice, Master seemed to be awake.

I’m about to knock on the door

-To me… . There is a way.

He stopped his outstretched hand at Gu Yangchun’s voice.

It’s because I didn’t want to face him because I was ashamed of what I said in the morning.

‘If only… .’

It was impossible not to enter, and Gu Ryeong-hwa kept hesitating about what kind of expression to make when entering.

‘I’ll just pretend I don’t know.’

I’m trying to open the door with such a promise.

-You don’t know that this is not something you dare to joke about!

A shout of faith leaks out from inside.

what’s going on… ?

– It’s not a joke.

-You’re not farming? So, do you know what you just said?

-Yes.

Despite the scolding of faith, Guyangcheon calmly responded.

Soon after, Gu Yang-cheon spoke without hesitation.

-Maybe I can cure you.

Gu Ryeong-hwa had no choice but to break through the door and enter.
