Absolute Regression

Episode 126: I will fight with condescension.

As the woman approached, Seo Dae-ryong was taken aback.

“Huh? “He’s coming towards us?”

“Look, that’s right.”

“He came because I beckoned him to come. Come and do it. Why did you call me? Right? Then you should answer like this. “I called this guy here to make fun of him.”

As the woman came closer, Seo Dae-ryong’s eyes opened and his mouth gradually opened. She was wearing a cotton thread, which gave it an even more mysterious feel. In Seo Dae-ryong’s eyes, she looked like a fairy who came down from the sky.

Of course she was Ian. She came to a halt in front of the two of them.

Sword Dance Geuk said to Ian.

“I said I came with you, but you don’t believe me.”

Then Ian smiled and said to Seo Dae-ryong.

“Are you Inspector Seo? “I heard a lot.”

Ian spoke, hiding his original voice and modulating it.

Seo Dae-ryong, who was surprised when the woman recognized him, sent a message to Geommugeuk.

-How do you know me?

-Because I said so.

-how? why? You never told me you knew this kind of beauty, right? With Gakju’s personality, there’s no way he wouldn’t have bragged about it! I have a good heart and a right arm, but I also have the prettiest face!

At a time when Seo Dae-ryong was busy sending me messages, Ian said with a smile.

“You are the Lord’s right hand man?”

At that moment, joy that could not be hidden appeared on Seo Dae-ryong’s face. Isn’t this right-hand man position truly a precious and great position that many people are aiming for?

“Why did you say all that?”

Although he was embarrassed, Seo Dae-ryong’s shoulders were rising to the sky.

“You also told me this?”

“Which one?”

“He has a power-oriented and heartless personality, but he is a manly man who only loves one woman. He is a rebellious yet pacifist who raises his hand when everyone else is silent. He is someone who made a life-changing decision over a drink at a guesthouse?”

Seo Dae-ryong was surprised. The beautiful woman in front of him was reciting exactly what he had said as a joke in the past. Seo Dae-ryong looked at the sword dance and made a bewildered expression.

“You introduced it in great detail.”

“Not only that, I heard that you have regular drinking parties.”

“You even said that?”

Seo Dae-ryong was embarrassed. This beautiful woman knew too much about herself.

‘Why did you talk about me in such detail?’

But it didn’t feel bad. How could it be unpleasant for a beautiful woman, whom you may only see once in your life, to know everything about you?

Normally he was confident. He said that if someone were to use beauty techniques on him, he would never get caught. He lived with the mindset that the heart is important, not the appearance. This was even more so since it was a martial arts world where people used eye magic to lie about their age and suck the vitality out of others.

However, when I saw the woman in front of me, I thought that if such a woman really decided to seduce me, it would not be easy to refuse. Even though she had nothing to do with him, he felt like he wanted to look good for no reason.

“Aren’t you having a drinking party these days?”

“We had to postpone it for a while because one person was missing.”

Seo Dae-ryong asked Geommugeuk, belatedly saying, “Oops.”

“ah! “What about this drone?”

“You ask so quickly.”

Geommugeuk soon took on a gloomy expression.

“I won’t be able to see you anymore.”

For a moment, Seo Dae-ryong was startled.

“why?”

“….”

“no way? “Something’s wrong, right?”

“if there is?”

“Why are you doing this? Not fun. Even if you get hurt with other pranks, don’t play pranks like this. “It doesn’t work for me.”

“It’s no joke. “I can’t see Ian anymore.”

Seo Dae-ryong stared at the sword dance and then laughed.

“Shall I tell you the definitive reason why this prank doesn’t work?”

“What?”

“It’s because of Gakju.”

“me? why me?”

“I went out with Mr. Gakju, but there was a problem with this warrior? “This cannot happen.”

Then, Seo Dae-ryong suddenly thought of something.

“Oh, now that I think about it, Mr. Footnote. “You’re doing too much.”

“What else?”

The next words flew out in full sound.

– Just because you met such a beautiful woman, you threw away our unmanned person. As a man, I understand, but you can’t do that to this warrior. I usually think about how much this warrior is. Where are you? They didn’t send you to the training center to train as soon as you arrived, right? Ah, if that were the case, I would be disappointed in the footnote.

-Hey, let me talk too.

-That’s it. Give me this drone! No, I will go find it myself.

Seo Dae-ryong smiled and asked Ian.

“Have you ever seen a woman with a bit of character?”

“Oh, I saw it.”

Seo Dae-ryong said to Geommugeuk with an expression that said, “That’s right.”

-This kind of joke doesn’t work. I’m the top student at Hwangcheongak. And now from now on we will call them colored footnotes.

-What did I do?

-You abandoned this military man and brought that beautiful woman in! Oh, it was really bad. Suddenly, even that innocent beauty looks hateful.

Seo Dae-ryong said hello to Ian.

“Then I’ll see you next time.”

Seo Dae-ryong sighed inwardly as he walked towards Ian’s accommodation.

‘Oh, I didn’t even ask your name. Well, it’s not like I’m going to see him again anyway.’

At that time, Ian spoke from behind.

“He is not at the training center right now.”

“yes?”

How did this woman know that she was going to search for the training center first?

When Seo Dae-ryong was surprised, Geommugeuk said something even more surprising.

“I relayed everything you sent me in the message so far.”

Seo Dae-ryong was surprised.

-why?

-Speak with words, not with sound.

Seo Dae-ryong said with an expression that he could not understand.

“Why not? Why are you sending a message to that person? No matter how beautiful you were, you weren’t this kind of person, right? “You’ve become really strange.”

Then Ian said.

“I feel strange too, right?”

What kind of strange thing is this again? Just as Seo Dae-ryong was blinking, Ian took out a dagger from his arms.

It was the same dagger that had been made by melting Gowol’s iron shackles for 10,000 years ago.

As soon as he saw the dagger, Seo Dae-ryong was startled and questioned Geommugeuk.

“Why does he have a dagger?”

Seo Dae-ryong, who was looking at the sword dance with suspicious eyes, was startled.

“Could it be that you stole this unmanned dagger and gave it to this Sozer? No, right? “Is that yours?”

“I have mine here? “That’s Ian.”

When Geommugeuk took out his dagger and showed it to him, Seo Dae-ryong shouted.

“You really can’t do this! “You’re doing too much!”

For the first time, Seo Dae-ryong became angry with Geommugeuk.

Geommugeuk just smiled. When he just laughed, Seo Dae-ryong became even angrier.

“What on earth happened when you left? Are you crazy about women? This dagger was shared by the people who were with us that day, right? Of course, it was given by Gakju, but isn’t it still a dagger that has great meaning for all of us? But you took this unmanned dagger and gave it to that woman? Who will you give to the next beauty? I’ll give it to you in advance, so take it. No, I can’t take this. “I will give my sword to this warrior.”

“I didn’t know you cared for Ian this much.”

“This is a friend with whom I can tell everything about my heart. “He’s my drinking buddy.”

Then Ian said.

“Let’s go for a drink.”

Seo Dae-ryong was shocked. No was said right away. Still, I gritted my teeth and said no.

“I’m in a bit of trouble right now.”

Seo Dae-ryong sighed inwardly.

‘I can’t believe a beautiful woman I’ll never see again refuses to drink! Why did we meet in this situation? ‘Ah, is there ever such a blessed life?’

But still, Ian came first.

“Right now, I have to take care of my drinking friend who got abandoned. “Okay then.”

“Thank you for thinking of me this much.”

Seo Dae-ryong looked at Ian with an expression that asked what he was saying.

Ian took off the cotton yarn that was wrapped around him. At that moment, it felt as if light was emanating from my face.

Seo Dae-ryong’s eyes widened at the beautiful face revealed, but his expression soon hardened. Now is not the time to admire the beauty in front of you.

“But I’m not going! “I can’t go!”

“You promised to drink all night when I got back, right?”

“yes?”

“It’s me. “Ian.”

Seo Dae-ryong, who was caught in a crucible of chaos, just blinked.

“Lord Jang, the three of you and I decided to go to Daecheon Mountain to see the autumn leaves in the fall and drink while facing the snow in the winter, right?”

Seo Dae-ryong was startled when Ian used his original voice.

“Is the voice correct? “Are you really this warrior?”

“Yes, it’s me.”

“…isn’t it?”

“I’ll tell you everything about what happened when we have a drink and Lord Jang is here.”

Since it was Ian who was speaking, Seo Dae-ryong only then realized that it was Ian.

“You really are this warrior!”

Seo Dae-ryong looked at the sword dance for a final confirmation. Geommugeuk nodded once and confirmed.

“What’s wrong? Colored footnotes? Are you crazy about women?”

“iced coffee! sorry!”

Geommugeuk smiled at him who was still confused.

“no. Good job. “You got a lot of points from Ian today.”

Then Ian spoke loudly.

“I’ll drink all the alcohol today.”

“Aaaah! great.”

Ian said while watching the sword dance.

“Can we go for a drink? “I’m also attending Prince Jang.”

Geommugeuk couldn’t help but smile as her face showed how difficult it was to purify the body and how wonderful and fun the trip was.

“Drink to your heart’s content today!”

Geommugeuk, who was watching the excitement of Ian and Seo Dae-ryong, slowly walked towards Cheonmajeon.

* * *

Cheonmajeon remained unchanged.

My father was sitting across the bloody path. I slowly walked the red carpet to where my father was.

I was so happy to see my father again. I never thought I would be so happy to see that blunt expression and eyes.

“Father, how have you been? “I thought I would die without being able to see my father.”

I bowed deeply to my father.

“It looks like he came back from a war somewhere.”

“We fought a big war.”

“It was because I was needlessly interfering with the affairs of the Apostolic Association.”

“It wasn’t a useless thing. At least Bisain decided that we would be better to control than Sarok Guanchu’s grandson.”

Originally, it would have been accurate to say he was a better person, but he said he was better at manipulating him. My father absolutely hated and was wary of hasty evaluations of people.

“It would have been more advantageous for us to have Seok Gwan-chu’s grandson become our successor.”

“Why is that so?”

“That guy is much greedier.”

“Wouldn’t Wulin be more confused instead?”

“What does that have to do with us?”

I know that those words are sincere. This is because the more chaotic Moorim is, the more powerful the school becomes.

father. But we can’t grow by drinking blood forever, right?

“Why didn’t you come back right away? “Aren’t you concerned about your brother taking control of the mazons?”

“I’m worried.”

“But why?”

“I had no intention of making every mazon my own.”

“why?”

“Then your brother will be cornered.”

“!”

“Then you will end up making the worst and irreversible choice. It’s a choice I can’t just ignore. “Didn’t I tell you that bloodshed in the succession struggle will stop at my generation?”

My father couldn’t hide his surprise.

“You’re going to open the pores for that reason? “Have you really thought that far through?”

“I have to do it. When I think about how big and great what I gain by fighting is, I have to think deeper and further than that. “I will fight like this while being condescending to my father and using my head.”

My father stared at me in silence. I also quietly looked at my father.

“I’d like to ask you one question too.”

“What?”

“Did you worry about me at all when Sarcophagus Chu or his master Baek Mang-gi moved?”

“I didn’t do it.”

“Why didn’t you do it? “Do you trust me that much?”

“I didn’t trust you. “I believed in extreme evil.”

“You believed in Extreme Soma?”

“Yes, if he was by your side, it would be because he thought it was a fight worth fighting. “I trusted the worst judgment.”

“Please trust your son from now on.”

“If we had used you as the standard at the time, our school should have gone out to rescue you.”

“ah! “When will I become a trusted son?”

My father still looked puzzled by my exaggerated words. I thought that maybe even if I were to become a hermit and a fable, my father would still look at me with that expression. He will say this as he watches me ascend to the sky. Don’t trust the gods!

“Go and rest.”

“Then I’ll just leave.”

As I turned around and came out, my father spoke from behind me.

“Welcome back.”

The moment I heard those words, my heart swelled. It was a short word, but it was what I wanted to hear from my father more than any other words.

I turned to my father and bowed my head in silence.

Thank you so much, Father, for keeping your position strong.

After leaving Cheonmajeon, I walked towards the place where the person I wanted to see the most, after my father, was.
