Absolute Regression

Chapter 19



Episode 19 This summer we.

Ian jumped when he heard that I had killed the demon lord. It didn’t matter to her how she could have killed him.

“Why on earth did you do such a dangerous thing?”

She was really angry because her words included the word ‘act’. She didn’t even realize she had said it.

“My younger brother is dead, so would the old man in Hyeolcheondoma be still there?”

“So, please train hard so you can’t touch me.”

“Even if you practice for 30 years, you won’t be able to stop it!”

“Then you win. “Because he would have died of old age.”

Ian sighed at my carefree reaction.

“From the moment you really changed… my life became twice as difficult.”

“haha. Then you will lose weight and it will be good.”

“young master!”

Not only Ian but also the school was in an uproar.

The impact itself was different from the news that a disciple of Hyeolcheondoma had died by my hand.

I felt the change even on the way to Cheonmajeon at my father’s call.

The way they looked at me had changed.

Many people expected that the successor would be his older brother. But now things are starting to change.

When I won in Bimu, people were excited and made a wish for hunting, which became a hot topic. I was surprised at my courage when I killed the disciple of Hyeolcheondoma.

And now the demon lord has been killed.

Ian said that everyone only talks about me when they meet. My popularity soared in an instant because everyone hated Ma-gun, who had caused many problems as if he were an ordinary person.

There were even warriors who came up to me and said hello.

Of course, no one directly said ‘that’s cool’ or ‘well done’. This is because he was afraid of the aftereffects of Hyeolcheon Doma.

All he did was approach me without saying a word, embrace me and give me a respectful look. I could feel the support for me in those eyes. The people who came and greeted me like this were people who wanted me to become their successor.

I accepted their greetings one by one and headed to Cheonmajeon.

In the Heavenly Horse Hall, my father, Commander-in-Chief Sima Ming, and the Blood Heavenly Sword Demon Nine Heavenly Sect were waiting for me.

He first greeted his father and Sima Ming, and then greeted Hyeolcheon Doma.

“It’s been a while, old man.”

“How have you been, Mr. Lee?”

Compared to the seriousness of the situation of his younger brother’s death, Hyeolcheondoma was calm.

The eccentric and unique prayer that Hyeolcheondoma showed when he visited me the other day was nowhere to be found. I would not dare to reveal such a prayer in front of my father.

“How on earth did this happen?”

“I wrote it all down in the report.”

“I want to hear it directly from Gongja Lee.”

Although he was in front of his father, Hyeolcheondoma was calmly saying what he wanted to say. My father and Sima Ming may have thought that it was the right of a bloodthirsty demon, but they did not interfere and just watched him do what he did.

“Through the investigation, we discovered my brother’s serious crime. “They tried to kill me in the process of arresting me… I apologize to you.”

“It’s okay. If your brother is guilty, he should be punished. But what I don’t understand is that even though my brother is a pathetic bastard, he is not foolish enough to attack Lee Gong-ja when his guilt is clearly revealed.”

It is assumed that after being captured obediently, he asked his older brother for help.

I prevented that situation in advance.

“I don’t know why you did that. “Maybe he couldn’t accept being caught by a young me.”

After staring at me for a moment, Hyeolcheondoma opened his mouth again.

“I saw the body before coming here. “I heard you stabbed him with one blow?”

“yes.”

I didn’t go into detail about the fight. Prolonged speech in unfavorable situations can lead to mistakes and loopholes. For now, it is best to leave it to Thomas’s imagination.

He couldn’t ask any questions about the fight here with his father watching. Regardless of whether he was stabbed in the back or stabbed in the soles of his feet, the belief that the dead person was an idiot and an idiot was at the core of our school’s magic.

“Lee Gongja’s martial arts skills were much more outstanding than I thought.”

“I guess I benefited from my father. “I was excited, but the Demon Lord wouldn’t have been able to give me his all.”

“I guess so.”

Hyeolcheondoma expressed his gratitude to me with a gentle smile.

“Thank you for being honest. “Thanks to you, I feel at ease.”

“you’re welcome.”

His anger must have reached its peak as his disciple died and his younger brother also died. We literally became enemies of Cheolcheon, but Hyeolcheon did not show even the slightest anger. It was a moment where I could see how well he was able to control his emotions.

Before leaving the Heavenly Demon Hall, Hyeolcheondoma looked at his father.

When he first came to see me, he said twice that he would come to my father with my head. It meant that he was confident in his relationship with his father.

So, shouldn’t Hyeolcheon Doma say something like this at this moment?

―Sir, can you do this to me? If you were going to catch your brother, you should have called me first and resolved it. I’m so sorry, I’m so sorry!

However, there was no sign of regret anywhere in Hyecheondoma’s eyes. His father’s gaze towards him was also the same as usual.

“We have to prepare for the funeral, so go and rest.”

“Thank you for your consideration, Master.”

Hyeolcheondoma bowed politely and then turned around. He didn’t even glance at me as he walked down the red carpet.

When he withdrew, Sima Ming finally opened his mouth.

“Thank you for your hard work. Because the evidence gathered by Lee Gongja was solid, the case was able to be concluded without any problems. “Are you hurt anywhere?”

“Thanks for your concern, I’m okay.”

Sima Ming must have had a lot of questions about this unexpected result, but he didn’t ask me. Since it was probably my father who entrusted me with investigating this case, I guess he ultimately thinks that it is a problem between him and me.

“The leader gave a reward to a person who made a great contribution.”

One of the Cheonmajeon demons brought a long wooden box. I could guess how important what was inside was from the careful steps.

When I opened the lid, which was engraved with an elegant yet luxurious pattern, there was a sword inside.

I was surprised to see that it was a dark magic sword. The second most valuable sword after the Heavenly Demon Sword is given.

“The sect leader gave Gongja Lee a black magic sword.”

I was so happy that I smiled brightly. I joked for no reason out of joy that I couldn’t hide.

“If you’re going to give it to me, you have to give me a noble white flower sword that matches my temperament.”

My father said with an expression that could not possibly be true.

“The sword that suits you is a dark magic sword.”

“You don’t know your son too much. Geom, do you think so too?”

I slowly pulled out the dark magic sword.

The cold chill that radiated from the sword took over the hall. No internal power was injected, so the energy came purely from the sword.

I knew it the moment I pulled out the sword. This sword is my sword, a sword that suits me very well.

“Isn’t this award too undeserved?”

In my humility, Sima Ming spoke for my father.

“It’s not excessive. “The demon lord problem was the most difficult problem at our school.”

“You passed that trouble on to me.”

“I didn’t expect you to handle it so neatly.”

Sima Ming was once again impressed and asked his father.

“Did you expect this to happen, leader?”

My father shook his head.

“I felt lucky if I didn’t die from fussing.”

I know that’s not the case.

He probably sent it because he trusted me. He knew that he had achieved great success in the Bicheon Sword Technique, and since he had taken it from Socheon-dong to Ma Jeong-dan, he must have believed that he would not be easily defeated. Of course, the outcome of the Demon Lord’s death was unexpected.

And I also know why my father put down his sword. This is what I say to Hyeolcheon Doma.

-I take the credit, so at least don’t mess with my son for this matter.

It’s a silent warning. There is no way that the quick-witted Hyeolcheondoma would not be able to guess what that means.

“Thank you, father.”

After raising my sword and properly expressing my gratitude, I left Cheonmajeon.

On the way back to my residence, someone called me.

“The sun is nice, Lee Gong-ja. Let’s take a break.”

Hyeolcheon Doma was sitting in the vacant lot in front of the flower garden.

Yeah, there’s no way this old man is just going to leave.

I walked slowly and sat down in front of him. His eyes focused on the black magic sword strapped to my waist. I felt him clenching his molars. The resentment may be deep, but they don’t dare do anything about me.

“It looks like it will be unusually hot this summer.”

As soon as I finished speaking, Hyeolcheondoma shouted.

“This little bastard with no blood on his head! How dare you ambush my brother and kill him? “Today, I will dismember your body and sprinkle it on my brother’s grave.”

The magical energy emitted from the Blood Heavenly Blade swept around. The flowers in the garden withered in an instant. Where was this energy hidden in that skinny body?

I tried to maintain my composure as much as possible while raising my internal strength to fight against the demonic force.

The next moment, the demonic energy disappeared as if it were a lie, and Blood Heavenly Demon grinned and said.

“I should have said this originally, right?”

He tried to stab me in the side again with the end of the handle of the sword.

But this time, I also shouted as I blocked the digging handle with my palm.

“You’re a fucking old man who’s been fucking his age! How dare you destroy the discipline of our school and serve your own self-interest? “If you come forward for the sake of your corrupt younger brother, I will break your skinny body like a tree!”

I also added with a grin.

“If that were the case, I would have said this too, right?”

Hyeolcheondoma, who was dumbfounded for a moment, burst out laughing.

“Hahahaha!”

His laughter was so loud that the demons standing guard in the distance looked in this direction.

Then, Hyeolcheondoma suddenly stopped laughing. His face was so blunt as if he had never smiled before, and his emotions were constantly changing.

“Still, shouldn’t you have looked at my face?”

“It would have been handled in a good way. I tried to end it by resigning from my position. But even though I crossed the line, I went way too far. No, there was no line at all.”

Hyeolcheondoma nodded. It was my brother’s business, how could I not have known about it? I am not someone who is not interested in school politics.

“Ma-kun, you knew about my infidelity, right?”

“I knew it.”

“Why did you leave it alone?”

“You didn’t listen to me. “If you know it, I’m not a very clean person either.”

I was surprised that Hyeolcheondoma spoke honestly about his relationship with his younger brother.

‘You have to be careful in times like this.’

Hyeolcheondoma is clearly an emotional person. And he is a person who knows how to use those emotions.

“I was honestly relieved when I heard the news that my brother had died. “Now that guy won’t block my path.”

“I understand that feeling.”

When Hyeolcheondoma opened his small, torn eyes wide, he said, ‘Really? I felt like I was asking, ‘How are you?’

“It would be like hearing the news that my brother died. “I’ll be relieved that I don’t have to do it myself.”

His and my gaze became intertwined in the air. I saw fire in his eyes again.

What is in my eyes that he sees? What do you see in me?

I couldn’t tell what Hyeolcheondoma was thinking.

Regardless of the relief he said, he may be plotting to kill me since he is the enemy who killed my brother. Or, the past may have been carried away by the clouds.

I have no regrets.

If I don’t survive the fight with you Palmazons, I’ll be killed by fire weapons anyway if I’m only that good. I have to step on you lightly and move on. That’s how you live.

Hyeolcheondoma looked up at the sky and finally received the greeting I first gave him.

“Yeah, it’s going to be hot this year.”

Hyeolcheon Doma said that it was already hot and gently fanned himself with the large blade of Myeolcheon Daedo.

One thing was certain: the sun wouldn’t be the only reason we were getting hot this summer.

I shaded my forehead with my hand and looked up at the sky together.

“Luckily, I don’t get hot.”
