Chronicles of the Demon Faction

Episode 27 Gojukrim or here (2)

“I can’t breathe! I can’t breathe!”

Seoryang, who got into the carriage heading to his residence, continued to grumble.

Ma Dong-pil said awkwardly.

“Disrespectful towards the religious leader….”

“What is irreverent in this? “Can’t you tell that I’m suffocating with my own snout?”

“But…”

“And you didn’t say that the leader was a suffocating person, right? Are you just saying that the situation is suffocating? “You too, sit down and see if you can’t hear something like this.”

I think I understand. Anyway, it’s not something to argue with.

“Tch, I’m glad I got some alcohol.”

“Alcohol?”

“uh.”

Seo-ryang took out a bottle of alcohol from his arms.

“what the! This is also funny. Let alone how petty it is, if you don’t want to give it to me, I’ll just give you a new one. What kind of gift is this and what you’ve been drinking…”

Tak!

Xiliang narrowed his eyes.

Ma Dong-pil quickly snatched the bottle from him and began to look at it with serious eyes.

Considering that he was usually overly polite, it was extremely rude behavior, but he didn’t seem to notice.

Ma Dong-pil’s eyes became increasingly bloodshot as he stared at the bottle blankly, as if in shock.

Seoryang looked at him in horror and caressed his hand for no reason.

“Wow, my hands are sore.”

“….”

“sick.”

“….”

“Keuhum! Dongpil?”

Ma Dong-pil’s face has now almost turned into a wooden doll. In fact, not a single eyelash moved.

Xi Liang kicked him.

“You idiot, what is that?”

“…Six Heavenly Profound Pillars.”

“What are you doing?”

“This is the Six Thousand Heart Pillar!”

“Is this alcohol you know? “It tasted really good.”

Ma Dong-pil opened his mouth wide.

“Don’t you know the Six Heavenly Profound Pillars? Six thousand heart pearls? Six thousand hearts? “It’s the Six Thousand Heart Pillar?”

“So what is it?”

“The Six Heavenly Heart Pills given by the sect leader himself!”

“So what do you mean!”

“It’s an honorable drink, isn’t it?!”

Xu Liang was shocked.

“An honorable and delicious drink, that’s all?”

Ma Dong-pil looked at him with a shocked expression. The expression on his face was so dramatic that I almost felt sorry for him.

“Six Heavenly Profound Pillars! This is our school’s top-class liquor that only past church leaders enjoyed! “It is a drink that is specially given to magicians who have accomplished great feats. Drinking this drink itself is the glory of three lives!”

“Just drinking a glass of alcohol can give you the glory of three lives….”

“It depends on who gives it to you! Moreover, this is a spirit wine made by the religious leader himself! “It cannot and should not be converted into money!”

“So, it’s still alcohol?”

Ma Dong-pil foamed at the mouth.

“Confucius! Do you think the demons of our church will want the elixir bestowed by the church or the Six Heavenly Heart Pills given by God?!”

“Elixir.”

“Queuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuck.

Words don’t make sense.

Ma Dong-pil happened to be a member of the Protectorate, which had the deepest loyalty and faith in the school. On the other hand, Seoryang was not a demon to begin with, so of course there was no way for him to have any religious beliefs.

Seo-ryang took the bottle from Ma Dong-pil.

“No matter what, as long as it tastes good, it’s okay. Anyway, I’m glad I found a decent drink.”

It’s heresy! It’s heresy!

Ma Dong-pil wanted to shout like that. If the opponent hadn’t been a three-timer, he would have really shouted.

“What on earth happened to you, Confucius?”

“what.”

“Didn’t you say that you lost your memory after taking the Juhwa Ilma?”

“…uh.”

“But why have you forgotten everything about our school? “You are great at martial arts and have a lot of experience, so why did you only pick out the important ones…!”

“Let’s stop talking nonsense and go home and have a drink.”

“It’s not possible. My mission will end once I deliver Confucius. “I have to go back to the defense court.”

Xi Liang shook the Six Thousand Heart Pillars.

“Don’t you drink this?”

“…!”

“Then it is like that. “I heard the taste is a work of art.”

Ma Dong-pil’s eyes wavered.

“Did you say you would drink that precious thing with me?”

“You’ve had a lot of affection together for a long time, but are you letting go just because things are over? “That’s not what human affection is, man.”

“…!”

“There’s nothing I can do about it. After all, there is something called discipline in an organization.”

Xu Liang put the bottle back in his arms.

Ma Dong-pil lowered his head.

This is a moment that may be the greatest glory of the next 50 years of Protestant life, but should we just pass it up?

Does it really have to be that way?

“…I will come back after reporting the end of the mission.”

“There is a separate time to feel good. “If I get permission, it will already be in my stomach.”

“….”

“are you okay. “There are many other good drinks in the world other than this.”

Ma Dong-pil raised his head.

Seoryang, who was trying to make fun of him with a genuine smile, showed pity on his face.

Because of how intensely he thought about it in that short period of time, he looked ten years older.

“…Can I just have a drink here?”

Xu Liang chuckled.

“It’s okay, so just say you’ll take a break and come. “I have to prepare food too.”

“Thank you! Thank you, Confucius!”

“You’ve been speaking too harshly to people you’re thankful for, haven’t you?”

“ah…!”

Ma Dong-pil lowered his head.

“I apologize. “I was overly excited and was rude to Confucius.”

I have a taste for teasing you subtly.

Seoliang chuckled and was about to tap his shoulder when Ma Dong-pil came down to the floor and knelt down.

“Please kill me.”

…You shouldn’t make jokes to him from now on.

After calming him down for a while, Seo-ryang suddenly turned his gaze to the side.

“This guy has really good speed.”

Next to Seoryang, a fox cub was lying down, sleeping soundly. Even before entering the Demon God Palace’s battle, he had not woken up even once.

‘Your nose feels good.’

While rubbing the bridge of his nose, he touches his nose and raises his front paw to block it. When I looked at it, I thought it was really cute.

Eventually, the carriage arrived in front of Seoryang’s residence.

“Tskcha.”

When Seo-ryang got off the carriage, he smiled bitterly at the sight he saw.

“It’s been a while since I last saw you.”

The surroundings are very desolate. The original owner of this body may have wanted to live in isolation, but unlike other houses that were crowded together, he lived in an area that was quite far away from the civil war.

When I was in Gojuk Forest, I really wanted to come back, but it was a sight I hated to see just as much.

Ma Dong-pil, who got off the carriage together, bowed his head.

“This is the official end of my duties.”

“Oh yeah.”

“I would like to take this time to apologize once again for the hardships the Prince has suffered due to my insufficient escort.”

“Don’t say that.”

“And I am disappointed that you covered up my mistakes with your generous generosity.”

Seo-ryang waved his hand as if he was tired of it.

“Do it in moderation. Are you not going to drink later? “Let’s not act like we’re someone we’ll never see again.”

Ma Dong-pil smiled.

“yes. If you do, I will stop by the courthouse and then come back. “Please rest well.”

“OK. “Please be careful.”

Seoryang, who was watching the figure riding away in the carriage again, stretched out loud.

“Ah!”

He lowered his head at the cute word, and before he knew it, the fox cub had woken up and was sitting at his feet, looking up at him with bright eyes.

Xu Liang chuckled.

“Cute bastard. “Anyway, I collected the money, so don’t take responsibility.”

“Ah!”

“You can understand me, right?”

「….」

“Of course not.”

He picked up the fox cub and held it in his arms.

“Let’s go in. Let’s take a clean shower and lie down on a warm bed!”

I’m sorry.

Seoryang opened the door and stepped inside.

It was then.

flinch!

Seoyang stopped tall and cast his gaze beyond the open door.

‘…huh?’

Quiet interior.

It’s not dark yet because it’s rainy season, but it’s strange.

The house was in very good condition, but it looked as if it had been burned.

Seoliang tilted his head.

‘What’s so uncomfortable?’

Just because it’s been a long time since I visited the house doesn’t mean I feel a sense of strangeness.

Saaaaagh.

His energy expanded rapidly.

‘one person. There is only one person. His martial arts skills are insignificant and his strength is minimal. It’s a cherry blossom.’

Cherry blossoms are the only thing that is popular throughout this place. There is no doubt that I saw it with the mind’s eye of the super-spiritual view of the One Consciousness of the Six Paths of Heaven.

But why does it seem like there is someone else?

‘…There’s definitely no one there.’

It ‘was’.

Although there was no sign of presence, nor could it be seen or heard, there was a reason why traces of the past could be read.

It was the smell. An unfamiliar body odor that could not be found here was coming from the room and warehouse.

Super new building. A Qigong that rapidly elevates the body’s five senses and activates them to a level higher than that of an animal. In front of him, it was a piece of cake to recognize the scent that was just a short distance away.

‘If you look at the smell that still remains, it hasn’t even been half a day.’

Xu Liang’s eyes narrowed.

‘Someone snuck in here and disappeared? why?’

I couldn’t figure out why. Since he was the owner of the house, he must have been the reason he hid and waited, so why did he suddenly disappear?

‘…hmm.’

After thinking about it carefully, Seo-ryang shrugged his shoulders.

I have never developed a hobby of worrying about smelling the body odor of someone who has disappeared. It’s not even women, it’s men.

When I returned home after eight months, I felt a bit upset because of the unfamiliar traces I read, but I’ll think about that later.

After clearing his mind of thoughts, he entered the gate.

“hey! “It’s a cherry blossom!”

At that moment, the door to the main room opened wide and a cherry blossom came running out in a huff.

“Lord Confucius?!”

“OK. “I’m back.”

Cherry blossoms were struggling on the spot.

“Invincible religion, Manmaangbok! “The cherry blossom greets the Three Princes!”

Xiliang scratched his head.

“Hey, do you really have to greet me like that? “It’s so grand that I don’t know what to make every time I receive it.”

“Confucius….”

“Clark. ” wake up. Nice to meet you, man.”

Cherry blossoms stood up politely.

Seo-ryang’s face softened. It’s been a hectic three months, but if you count the number of days, it’s almost a hundred days.

Moreover, wasn’t he a child who helped me comfortably while I was here, as if I wasn’t even there? Of course, I couldn’t help but be happy.

“uh? what? “I think you’ve become a little gaunt since I haven’t seen you in a while.”

“I apologize.”

“You apologize again. “Are you going to eat?”

“yes.”

Aenghwa’s eyes turned red.

Xiliang scratched his head. Although he said he could be happy, Aenghwa’s reaction was unexpected. It must have been a lot of trouble to listen to someone who was barely sane.

He messed up Cherry Blossom’s hair.

“You twisted your child’s hair into art again.”

“Late Confucius.”

“It has to be moderately disheveled to have a sense of humanity. From now on, travel comfortably and comfortably. Algan?”

“yes yes!”

She hesitated for a moment, her face instantly brightening, then she closed her eyes tightly and shouted.

“The late Confucius has also become prosperous!”

It was something she said with all the courage she had. How could one say something like that to a disciple of a religious leader?

However, judging from my memories from eight months ago, it seemed that Confucius preferred a moderately friendly attitude rather than excessive politeness.

Indeed, her prediction was correct.

“yes? Wow, I really went through a lot of hard work to create this body. “You recognize me.”

“You’ve changed so much.”

“Isn’t it a bit obvious?”

“yes! “You look great!”

“Hahaha! thanks!”

Xiliang looked around.

“It’s been left unclaimed for eight months. It’s neat, isn’t it?”

“yes! I came by every two days and cleaned it. “So that you can come back anytime and rest comfortably.”

Xiliang’s eyes drew a crescent moon.

“Is that so?”

He was truly moved.

Ma Dong-pil is also Ma Dong-pil, but isn’t he Aenghwa who has been away from him for eight months? He said he would be grateful if he didn’t forget about him during that long period of time, and he even cleaned up for him every now and then.

It was my first time receiving this kind of care from someone. I was grateful for the effort and my heart was moved.

“I will close the gate for now.”

“uh? “Oh, I can do it.”

As soon as I finished speaking, Aenghwa was already running to the front door. The hurried back was full of energy.

A warm smile spread across Seo-ryang’s face once again.

This guy is really passionate.

thud!

The cherry blossoms that closed the gate quickly came running again.

“I received the delivery late, Confucius, so I haven’t prepared the hot water yet. Would you like to eat first?”

“No, first take a bath.”

“Ah yes! Please wait a moment. “I will heat the water for you.”

“Is that so?”

“yes!”

“good. “Let’s go in first.”

Cherry Blossoms followed behind Seoryang, who was walking ahead.

Aenghwa maintained a polite posture but kept glancing toward Seoliang.

To be precise, it was not Seo-ryang, but the fox cub in his arms.

‘cute.’

I’d like to ask Confucius where he got that fox, but I’ll hold off for now. I need to hurry and get some hot water.

The cherry blossoms that came into the building quickly went to heat the water.

Xiliang stretched out loudly. I don’t know how much time he has left.

“Eurachacha!”

Let’s think about it later, eat, drink, and sleep without worrying about anything today!
