46 – EP.3 ‘Definition’ of ‘we’-6

***

After winning the fight with Master, I met two attendants that same day.

“It’s a plum.”

“It’s Yeonhwa.”

A middle-aged woman and a woman who must have just entered high school greeted me politely.

“Yes, please.”

A person much older than me came out with a low profile and was uncomfortable, but after being scolded by Master for not being rude to the general, I had no choice but to speak plain language.

Ugh, I feel guilty about something.

“Yes, I will do my best to serve you well.”

A middle-aged woman named Maehwa bowed her head even more, and Yeonhwa, who had been standing there belatedly, followed suit.

“Maehwa spends a lot of time at school, and Yeonhwa is a recent member.”

Listening to the general’s explanation, I looked for two people who could help me.

Maehwa, as described, seemed to have thick bones.

I don’t want to admit it, but I’m still showing a figure that is neither too much nor too little, with the second rank of Heukcheongyo, the Sogyoju in front of me.

On the other hand, I could see that Yeonhwa was still clumsy.

It’s hard to maintain an immobile posture, or it’s like watching a curious kid who keeps looking around.

I have no desire to evaluate anyone who can help me. It’s just that.

“Schoolmaster, I’m leaving now.”

“Oh, is there anything delayed?”

The commander-in-chief seems to be busy.

“Yes, that’s right. I’ll see you later in the evening. Maehwa. Take good care of the young master.”

“Is it possible?”

The general nodded and headed somewhere. It’s probably where you work.

Then I had nothing to do, so I followed him and stayed by his side all day.

He must have been bothered because I was by his side, but the general was silently handling the paperwork.

Then I got a nosebleed from overwork or something. I saw that and asked Master to assign me an attendant.

Come to think of it, as soon as I had a nosebleed, he looked at me and told me to leave, but I’m not sure why.

Well, it could be a personality that wants to look clean.

“Schoolmaster, where are you planning to go now?”

A lively voice hit my ears.

When I turned around, Yeonhwa was looking at me with bright eyes.

“uh….”

“I’m sorry, Little Teacher. He hasn’t had etiquette training yet.”

I was going to answer the question, but Maehwa stepped up first and fell flat on the floor.

“What a big deal to ask. No need to apologize.”

“If you have any questions in the future, feel free to ask.”

“Wow~ Really?”

“Yeonhwa!”

When Yeon-hwa, who had been afraid to follow Mae-hwa, laughed, Mae-hwa hit her on the back.

I laughed along with Yeon-hwa, thinking that I was seeing a mother and daughter who are on good terms.

“I’m going for a walk. Is there a good course… No, is there a good road?”

“I will guide you to the decorated garden.”

Following the guidance of Maehwa, we are walking along a path that is good for a moderate walk, but unlike when we started out, two more people have increased.

Who are the two people who joined?

“Hey~ I’ve only seen this garden being decorated, but I haven’t been to it. It’s pretty looking at it this way.”

with kwonma.

“That’s because you’ve been drinking all the time.”

per spirit.

While walking on the street, a horse that spotted me flew over and offered to accompany me, and when I accepted, a young horse wriggled out of my shadow.

– Did you keep hiding in my shadow?

At this question, Youngma turned her head away and exercised her right to remain silent.

This is similar to Master. No, I guess I have to be that shameless to become a member of the Cheonma Church.

“hahahaha! I feel sorry for you who don’t know the pleasure of drinking.”

“I feel sorry for you, as always, for spouting bullsh*t.”

But just looking at Cancer, these two seem to be getting along really well.

“Are you two friends?”

When I ask, the two of them look at me in a fright.

“Schoolmaster, no! Who is friendly with this ignorant and drunkard?”

“You say I’m close to such a cute guy?

Um… these two will date 100 percent later.

Heukcheongyo’s pavilion, while drinking tea leisurely and listening to the commander’s report, the Heavenly Demon turned his gaze to the outside at the sound he heard in the distance.

“What’s going on?”

“Do you see that?”

When the Heavenly Demon spoke, pointing at things that looked like dots in the distance, the commander-in-chief looked at her fingertips.

“It looks like you’re taking a walk. Why are the young and old horses over there?”

the commander-in-chief murmured.

“Young horse is assigned as an escort and guard for the young master, but why is that guy over there? He must have finished servicing the weapons he ordered?”

“I asked this morning and they said it would be over soon.”

In fact, I didn’t do anything, so the general finished it himself, but the general was the one who covered up the faults of his colleagues.

“Huh, the sun will rise upside down tomorrow. To say that Witch Kwon finished the work on time.”

Shaking her head, the Heavenly Demon took another sip of tea.

“Schoolmaster… seems to be adjusting well.”

“Then, I have to adapt. I will continue to live here.”

When the Heavenly Demon laughed, the commander-in-chief also laughed.

“He said ‘we’.”

The commander-in-chief, who watched the dots moving away with the Heavenly Demon for a while, opened his mouth.

“‘we’?”

“Yes. It’s been a long time since I’ve heard it. I liked it.”

The commander-in-chief, who covered his mouth with his line of speech, smiled kindly.

The Heavenly Demon, who had been blank for a moment, realized the meaning of the words and giggled.

“hahahaha, to think that a young schoolmaster already embraced those below him. I am a bastard after all.”

– He is also my disciple. The Heavenly Demon added.

“I had forgotten the meaning of the word ‘we’ because I was busy with work, but it was nice to be able to think of it again thanks to the young schoolmaster.”

Politely but firmly, said the general. The Heavenly Demon listened to him in silence.

“Heukcheongyo is a place where the abandoned gather. A place where we join forces to fulfill each other’s wishes and heal each other’s wounds.”

“The Sogyo Master reminded us that this is the ‘us’ that the Religious Master said. In other words, Heukcheongyo.”

At the words of the commander-in-chief, the Heavenly Demon showed a deep smile as if satisfied.

“Yes, that is our definition.”

The Heavenly Demon was satisfied with the precise explanation of the commander-in-chief.

Member of Baekho Team, Dang Yu-yeon of Sichuan Dangmun.

She was going crazy now, worried about her best friend.

It is because Namgung So-yeon’s behavior has changed since the incident of killing the lawmaker in the seniority office.

His eyes, which used to be a smiling face, became sharp, and his tone became ferocious.

The head lord and Shinui said there was nothing wrong with her body, but she didn’t believe it easily.

“Blood sword. Are you really okay?”

“Yes. No problem at all. Rather refreshing.”

With a sigh, she spoke brightly, but Tang Yu-yeon’s expression darkened.

“Tell me honestly. Where are you going these days?”

“Where are you?”

“I’m Tang Yu-yeon from Sichuan Tang Gate. Do you think you can avoid my eyes? You go into strange stone chambers regularly these days.”

“Ah… have you seen it? Can I see it? Um… I don’t mind. It’s not a bad thing.”

“Are you training there?”

“Would you like to follow me? I’m hungry right now.”

Dang Yu-yeon was a bit worried about So-yeon Namgung’s suggestion.

It was because if I followed it, I felt as if I would cross a river that I could no longer turn back.

In the sense of the scout, it was right not to go.

She chose friendship.

“Okay, I’ll go with you.”

“Okay. Follow me.”

Tang Yuyan followed her into the stone chamber.

In a cramped stone chamber, what the hell are you doing here? I thought so, but the question didn’t last long.

When Soyeon Namgung opened the door on the floor, a staircase leading down appeared.

“What is… down here?”

When Dong Yu-yeon asked as she chased after her as she strode down, So-yeon Namgung laughed.

“There are some very vicious sinners.”

“You’re a sinner.”

Women who go down and down further.

Soon, upon reaching the dungeon, there is a great commotion inside the bars.

“Wow… here it is!”

old man’s voice.

“Hey… help me! Please!”

The voice of a young woman.

“aaa…”

People’s screams can be heard along with the sound of the metal bars clattering.

“What… what is this place?”

Namgung So-yeon did not respond to Dang Yu-yeon’s question in the middle of the quarrel.

– Kiki

Opening the prison door, she grabbed the young woman inside by the neck and lifted her up.

“Kyaaa, let me go!

“That person of the black sword…?”

Seeing the woman’s struggling face, Tang Yu-yeon was startled.

Why is Sapa’s warrior here?

“be quiet.”

With her golden eyes shining, Soyeon Namgung gives strength to her hands.

– Wooddeuk

At the sound of bones breaking, the Sapa woman died as it were.

“Blood sword! What are you doing now?”

Namgung So-yeon does not answer Dang Yu-yeon’s cry.

– Chwiyiyi

Blood drips from the dead woman’s neck.

The boiling blood soon turned into steam and slowly flowed into Namgung So-yeon.

Namgung So-yeon, who absorbed the steam in a short time, looked back at Dang Yu-yeon with a refreshing face.

“Huh… This one is really bad.”

“J-What are you doing… Inhalation… This is… a blood demon?”

Namgung So-yeon clapped her hands at the word blood ghost.

“Wow! You know the blood ghost.”

Namgung So-yeon comes closer.

“Then it’s easy to explain. Inhalation, you know? I inhale sinners every day.”

“Such! How can life…”

“Life? These people are sinners who rebel against their will, right? I don’t know how serious they are.”

Namgung So-yeon pouted as if it was no big deal.

“The Heavenly Demon is strong. I feel that there is a gap even after breathing in like this.”

Stroking her belly, she continued.

“You can get stronger in a short time by using inspiration.”

The hand that had been stroking the stomach goes down a little more.

“If we use the sinners who eat the world to gain the power to kill the Heavenly Demon… wouldn’t they also have a meaningful role?”

Namgung So-yeon let out a hot breath while stroking it with her secret hand.

Tang Yu-yeon screamed at the rudeness.

“This is an unfair act!”

“Justice?”

– Tak

Namgung So-yeon, who had approached Dang Yu-yeon before she knew it, gently grabbed her by the neck.

“Kuh…!”

As I frowned at the force that tightened my neck, Namgung So-yeon put her face close to me and our eyes met.

“That’s for us to decide.”

– Listen carefully.

Namgung So-yeon, who now exudes the atmosphere of a completely different person, whispered in Dang Yu-yeon’s ear.

“We are justice.”
