Absolute Regression

Episode 248 When are you going to kill me?

After leaving Mabul’s residence, Geommuyang walked slowly through the inner garden of the Heavenly Demon Church.

I walked around looking at each of the buildings in the garden carefully. I’ve never looked at these buildings closely before.

The warriors standing guard greeted him politely.

When Geommuyang accepted their greeting, the warriors looked at each other and exchanged puzzled looks. Since Geommuyang was always busy passing by, she had never been properly greeted.

After walking through the inner garden like that, Geommuyang arrived at Donggwonmun Gate.

It was late, but Gwonma was awake.

Geommuyang arrived in front of the cliff following the guide.

Gwonma, who was standing in front of the cliff, said without turning around.

“I plan to collapse this cliff in one blow. “That is my dream.”

Geommyang looked up at the cliff. The huge cliff with no end in sight was clearly saying that it was impossible. Geommuyang thought that this would be difficult no matter how much it was a horse.

“If you are Master Kwon, your dream will definitely come true.”

Only then did the horse turn towards him.

“See you, Madam Kwon.”

“Grand Duke, welcome back.”

Every time she saw the scary face of Gwonma, who made even the evil spirits of the Heavenly Demon Church look good, Geommuyang naturally felt afraid.

“I’m sorry for coming to see you late at night.”

“No. “I was awake because I had a late-night training session.”

Surprisingly, Kwon Ma was still going to late-night training meetings these days. Even though they had not been able to participate in the sword dance since returning from school, Ian and Cheon Sohee continued to appear.

Gwonma pretended to go out but didn’t want to be seen as not going out just because there was no sword dance. That’s why I went out, but these days I don’t miss out because of Chun Sohee.

I didn’t know it until Geomugeuk told me about it, but as I spent time with her, I realized that her talent and personality were worthy of being the next knight. So, I gave her separate teachings during training.

Gwonma found this late-night training fun.

Honestly, it might be because I was with two young, beautiful women. It may be because of Cheon So-hee, who has absolute respect for the horse, or because of Ian, who makes people laugh with unexpected jokes every now and then. For him, who had devoted his whole life to teaching, this late-night training meeting was a very valuable and fun time.

“So what happened?”

I could feel Gwonma just by coming in the middle of the night. Geommuyang is about to make a big decision.

“Madam Kwon is the only one who has officially announced that she supports me.”

“I’m not one to break promises.”

“If you had met Mugeuk, would you have made that promise?”

He glared at Geommuyang as if the horse was going to pierce through him. Since Geommuyang had not yet gotten used to Gwonma’s face, he slightly lowered his head and avoided eye contact.

“If that were the case, I would have announced my support for Lee Gong-ja.”

Geommuyang was actually glad that Gwonma answered honestly. I came to visit him today because I knew that Gwonma was this kind of man.

“What kind of person is Mugeuk?”

“Don’t you, my brother, know better?”

“No, I’m not sure.”

Gwonma’s eyes turned to the cliff again.

“I said to Duke Lee what I said to you earlier. “You said your dream was to collapse this cliff.”

Geommuyang was curious. How would Geommugeuk respond?

“He wanted to destroy himself too.”

Geommuyang felt it for a moment. At least for Gwonma, those words were correct.

“Someday, the person who brings down this cliff may become a master of science. “Your brother is that kind of person.”

It may have been because of this small difference. These small differences may have come together to create the difference between the current sword dance and oneself.

“Couldn’t that be false? “Isn’t it possible that he is just trying to impress Master Kwon?”

Although it was a difficult thing to say originally, Geommuyang expressed her honest feelings as if she had made up her mind.

“Of course it could be so.”

“But why did you believe it?”

Gwonma understood how Geommuyang felt. It was a sword dance that involved them too, and it would have been impossible for the young Geommu Yang to deal with him.

“Because Lee Gongja showed it through his actions. “Because I came out of the East Kwon Gate and rose from the White Kwon to the Black Kwon.”

“If Mugeuk had martial arts skills, it wouldn’t have been difficult!”

Gwonma calmly asked the furious Geommuyang.

“If it was that easy, why didn’t you do it?”

“!”

Geommuyang couldn’t answer. He knew it too. What Gwonma is talking about is not just a matter of martial arts skills. When actions follow, faith also gains strength.

Gwonma’s eyes turned to the cliff again.

After a while, Geommuyang asked.

“Can I ask you one last question?”

“to do.”

“Do you think it would be better for our school for Mugeuk to become Cheonma?”

“Why are you asking me that?”

“I think you will give the most honest answer out of all the Amazon people.”

For a moment, Gwonma was lost in thought. I had a feeling that my answer would have a big impact on Geommuyang. Nevertheless, Kwon Ma spoke honestly.

“Before I answer, let me tell you one thing. “Regardless of my answer, our official position in support of you will remain unchanged.”

“thank you.”

Gwonma looked at Geommuyang and said without any sign of apology.

“I’m more looking forward to Lee Gongja’s Heavenly Demon Religion.”

It was a cruel answer to Geommuyang, but she answered honestly.

Those words flew heavily into Geommuyang’s chest.

“Thank you for being honest.”

Geommuyang bowed politely in a trembling voice and turned around. Before leaving, he looked up at the cliff one last time. Even when I looked at it again, I couldn’t bring myself to break it down.

Kwon Ma, who was watching him leave, walked in the opposite direction to go to late-night training.

No words of comfort or encouragement were given to him.

Because each person had to overcome the cliff given to them.

* * *

My brother came to visit.

My brother, standing under the moonlight dressed in military uniform and carrying a sword, seemed different from usual.

My brother immediately told me.

“Let’s have a fight.”

I could tell. The outcome of this match will determine the successor. I came here even though I knew I would lose.

“good. “I’ve wanted to beat you up for a long time.”

“It’s not a joke.”

“I’m not kidding either. “He’s a vicious older brother who tried to instill fear of martial arts in his younger brother, who will become a martial artist, so he deserves a little beating, right?”

“If that’s how much you regret, it’s okay.”

“Don’t talk like it’s no big deal.”

“No matter what, I’m not going to say I’m sorry.”

We didn’t say we would fight over the successor, like we promised. I just acted like I was resolving old debt.

My brother pulled out his sword and I also pulled out my sword. This was the first time they had pointed their swords at each other like this, except when they were fighting when they were young.

Bicheon Geombeop vs. Bicheon Geombeop.

My older brother had reached the age of 10, and I had reached the age of 12. Even if it wasn’t just that difference, the difference in experience and skill was so big that my brother couldn’t beat me.

I won’t watch it. However, instead of subduing him all at once, he made his brother use all the herbivorous power he could.

“Watch out, it’s really coming.”

My brother, who gave a serious warning, unfolded the first-style gyeoncheon-sik.

Shhh!

A ray of sword light flew in to cut me apart, but my bactericidal attack was faster and more powerful.

Kwaaaang!

My brother was shocked to see the first ceremony dissolved in vain in the air.

J-Sik came out with a surprised face, but this time too, the stronger J-Sik eliminated it.

Third Ceremony Ceremony….

As the number continued, my brother’s despair grew. I knew I was stronger, but I never thought I would be this strong.

That was the case with Hyeolcheon Doma.

He said that making sure to step on the right path is for my brother. I agree with that.

I showed off all my skills to the point where my brother felt despair.

That was the path for my brother. From now on, never let your mind wander. To accept that not being able to become a successor is not a regret, but a natural thing.

My brother would be looking at the wall. A wall higher and bigger than the cliff that Gwonma was looking at.

When the Bicheon Sword Technique did not work, the older brother rushed at him swinging his sword. You must have come here knowing you would lose. But when defeat became a reality, my brother became desperate.

‘I want to be the successor!’

However, that earnestness could not make up for the gap in our skills.

Taaaang.

The sword flew out of my brother’s grasp and fell to the floor.

My brother looked at the sword with blank eyes for a moment, then glared at me and said.

“Actually, I was going to beat him with this fist.”

“then! “Men are fists!”

I said to my brother as I sheathed the dark magic sword.

“But what? “I’m Master Kwon’s disciple?”

“…don’t use herbal food.”

I laughed out loud at my brother’s words. Saying something like that in this situation is a good sign.

Yeah bro. I will definitely beat you up.

The two of us clashed fists. Whether it’s swordsmanship, martial arts, or fist fighting. How could my brother beat me?

puck! Pow!

My fist hit my brother’s face and body.

This is punishment for instilling fear in my younger brother because of his own greed. I have to free my money and go.

puck! Whoa!

It was a fist meant to forgive his brother.

Even though he was beaten to death, my brother never used his inner strength. He could have taken the opportunity to kill me, but he didn’t. Didn’t even try.

This is it. brother. The reason I tried to save my brother and take him with me. My father probably saw it first. What kind of person is my brother?

And just before my brother collapsed due to lack of strength!

Pow!

My brother’s fist hit my face.

I got a proper hit. I guess I also felt sorry for my brother. If I hadn’t regressed, the successor would have been my older brother.

But it is also for my brother’s benefit that I become his successor. Let’s live this life as long as we can. Let’s survive, whether we become friends or lose or suffer.

And just like that, a fight that was not a fight ended.

The older brother, who had succeeded in landing the final blow, smiled in satisfaction and lay down on his back.

Whoo whoo whoo whoo.

Everything was contained in the sound of my brother’s heavy breathing.

The sound of breathing slowly subsided.

Until then, I also lay down next to my brother and looked up at the night sky.

My brother asked while lying down.

“Can you do well?”

I would have expected him to say no, but I would have expected him to say he would do it, even if it was just a possibility.

“I can do the best among the heavenly horses of all time.”

“shit!”

My brother shouted while lying down.

“Aaaaaaaaa!”

He shouted as if he was struggling. Many people at our school will be hearing this shouting. This shout determines the fate of my brother and I.

My brother stopped yelling and sighed heavily. I let out all my last remaining regrets with that breath.

“You have to do really well.”

“I’ll do well.”

“The successor to the Heavenly Demon Church is fussy and gossiping. then no!”

“It’s because I don’t look at when I’m serious. “Are you going to beg me to tell you a joke?”

“Don’t do this!”

“okay.”

My older brother completely gave up on becoming an heir. Therefore, this question was also sincere.

“When are you going to kill me? “Be sure to give yourself time to get your affairs in order before you kill me.”

“Why is your head filled with such negative thoughts? “Let’s say you instilled my darkness, but who planted it in you?”

“You are strange.”

My brother gave up everything, but there is no need to. Because I needed a brother.

“You have to help me from now on.”

“Don’t talk nonsense.”

“I’m serious. I don’t need a puppet brother. I don’t need a hurt and depressed brother. “I need a real brother.”

I got up first and held out my hand to my brother who was lying down.

After I get rid of the fire weapon, maybe I can give it to my brother. Because we don’t know what will happen to us then. So bro, hold my hand.

My brother sat up on his own without holding my hand. He said as he sat down and wiped his nosebleed.

“It’s embarrassing.”

“Be proud. “You have a younger brother who kills you, right?”

“I want to kill you. Calm.”

And the next moment.

My brother held out his hand to me. It was a hand reaching out to grab me and help me up.

The moment I saw that outstretched hand, my heart skipped a beat. I had so much to say that I couldn’t say anything.

I held his hand tightly. I felt my brother hold my hand tightly too.

I vigorously lifted my brother up.

My brother stared at me for a moment, then raised his fist in front of me and said.

“If you don’t become a proper successor in the future, you will be beaten by me again!”

I smiled at my brother. It was his first laugh because he liked it.

“If someone is bothering me, can I call my brother?”

“Crazy guy.”

My brother walked to Cheonmajeon first.

I told my father I was taking my older brother, but my older brother is taking me.

The demons standing guard were surprised. Because the brothers were walking side by side in the middle of the night with their faces blown out.

“Don’t you need to take a shower to see your father?”

“If you continue like this, I will show you that you are a vicious younger brother who beats up your older brother.”

And my brother said.

“Be sure to tell me in advance when you kill me… Even if someone harasses me, you must tell me.”

A ray of wind blew and blew the hem of our clothes. It was a wind that signaled a new beginning.
