Absolute Regression

Episode 80 Even if I become an obvious person someday.

The trio was quickly formed and headed to the Pungryu bar.

Ian and Seo Dae-ryong were quite drunk, but the moment the Pungcheon leader turned the table over, they sobered up like a lie.

In your lifetime, when will you ever again see the Pungcheon religious leader overturning the drinking table in front of the demons? When I was young, I made my grandchildren sit on my knees and told them a lie-like story that started with this.

The three people had a common feeling that they couldn’t just go on a day like this.

Before leaving for Magachon, Jang Ho entrusted Mannyeonhancheol to Kwak Bangju, the person in charge of the main school iron room and called a divine hand.

Kwak Bang-ju was very happy, saying that he would relax his hands properly for the first time in a long time, and since he rarely expresses his emotions, the three people realized once again how great a gift they were receiving.

Three people entered Magachon Pungryu Bar.

“Only three people came today.”

Jo Chun-bae welcomed them warmly.

“As of today, the trio has been formed.”

Ian added to Seo Dae-ryong’s joke.

“It might become an autograph room soon.”

Ian smiled and said to Cho Chun-bae, who said he didn’t understand the meaning.

“Please give me a drink first.”

I sat in the seat on this floor where three people always sit.

The drinking party started with Jangho half joking and half serious.

“I feel sad sometimes.”

“why?”

“You two are my heart and right arm, but I’m still nothing, right?”

Although he said it as a joke, his disappointment was evident.

At that time, Ian smiled and said.

“Isn’t that why it’s even greater?”

“What do you mean?”

“Like you said, it’s not the heart or the right arm, but the master always calls the monarch, right?”

Jangho’s eyes widened as if he had never thought about it from that perspective.

“It’s a joke to say it’s your right arm or your heart, but your trust in the Demon Lord is real. “I can tell just by looking at your eyes.”

“Is that so?”

“yes!”

“It seems like our warrior really makes people feel good.”

Is Ian like that this time? He asked, and Jangho, like Ian, answered yes loudly. The three people laughed together.

Then, Ian suddenly remembered the man in shackles. He was someone you couldn’t miss at today’s drinking party.

“Who is that person?”

“He seemed like an unusual person.”

Jangho once again emphasized Seo Dae-ryong’s answer.

“No matter how important or outstanding a person is, I will not allow him to behave carelessly.”

He clearly stated that he would keep the shackled man in check.

“Thank you for stepping up for me earlier.”

Seo Dae-ryong expressed his gratitude. This was because Jang-ho stepped forward when the man in shackles pressed him on what he would do if someone tried to take over his right arm.

“I’m sorry, but I didn’t come forward for the sake of the investigator. I am sincere. “They say he’s lined up as a right-hand candidate.”

Ian and Seo Dae-ryong looked at him in surprise.

“It’s Lord Jang…”

Seo Dae-ryong was about to say something, but Jang Ho cut him off.

“Please don’t tell me that I can make concessions. “I don’t think the position of Lee Gongja’s right hand man is something to be given up so easily.”

“No, I was going to tell you that even if you were Lord Jang, I would not yield.”

“yes? “Then why did you say you would give in earlier?”

“It was a lie. I felt like the atmosphere was just going by and it wasn’t a situation for me to step forward. To be honest, I can’t give in. “I never do that.”

Seo Dae-ryong revealed his true feelings. It wasn’t just because I was drunk. There was something I really wanted to say to Ian and Jangho at least once.

“My senior at Hwangcheon Pavilion died at the hands of the previous demon lord, and I was obsessed with revenge. By memorizing all the personal information of the Demon Lords. But that was all. “I couldn’t come forward and say that we should re-investigate, so I just had a burning desire for revenge in my heart.”

Seo Dae-ryong drank alcohol. Jangho filled his glass without saying a word.

“Pathetic? But I had to do that so I could bear it. If Mr. Gakju had not come as a temporary investigator at that time, I probably would have lived a dark and depressed life, blaming myself. Do you know what I hear the most from each of you these days? Why did it get so bright? But would I easily give up the position of his right hand man? Even the monarch will not yield. And my martial arts skills are improving day by day.”

Seo Dae-ryong, who poured out his words as if in a rage, exhaled deeply.

Jang-ho, who looked like he was about to say something, just smiled cheerfully. Seo Dae-ryong felt that this rough man’s sometimes grinning smile was very strange and yet wonderful. Because I always felt like I wanted to laugh that way too.

Seo Dae-ryong spoke to the two people.

“This meeting will continue in the future. please!”

The three talked about many things until late that day.

We talked about sword dance and also about the shackled man. We talked about the Mazons and each of them about their own work.

It was a pleasant drinking party where people said everything they wanted to say without crossing the line, so I had a vague belief that I could say anything here. Since there was no sword dance, I was able to reveal my feelings more freely.

“It was really nice to get together today.”

When Ian raised his glass high, the two people toasted vigorously.

After the drinking party, the three people came outside and stood side by side in front of the bar.

Seo Dae-ryong said while looking at the headquarters building in the distance.

“A lot of people’s fates will be changing tonight, right? Or maybe it has already changed.”

Ian nodded and accepted his words.

“We just have to trust in fate to guide them.”

A master of science until the end? There were people here who were sincere to the end.

* * *

As dawn broke, a man in shackles came to me.

It was so new to see him in my own home after always seeing him shackled next to the sound bell.

I looked at his ankles before even saying hello.

“Is your ankle okay?”

“You exceeded my expectations until the very end.”

His voice was soft yet calm.

I looked up at him with an expression asking what he meant.

“I’m just saying I didn’t expect you to look at my ankle during your first greeting.”

“Because it’s more important than greetings.”

“My ankle is fine. “Even if I’m not a great martial artist, I’m still a martial artist.”

“Can you tell me what kind of martial arts it is? “I want to know exactly what my skills are.”

“At one time, I learned the art of Meijin Kendo to the level of seven degrees.”

“Ah, that’s a good fighting technique.”

“Do you know the Human Rights Act?”

“Isn’t it the German martial arts of Gwonsa Yang Yang, one of the Nineteen Strengths of Sae-Oi?”

“How do you even know that?”

“I’m very interested in miscellaneous things.”

Fortunately, the man’s ankle was fine. As I straightened my back and stood up, the man said.

“My name is Gowol.”

It was the moment when I finally learned the name of the shackled man.

High month. The meaning of the lonely and lonely moon suited his mood well.

“Gowol. “That’s a good name.”

“thank you.”

Gowol and I’s gazes became intertwined in the air. His clear eyes were visible through his flowing hair. As it started with this eye contact, no other words were needed.

“Please be my soldier from now on.”

Gowol calmly asked back at my suggestion, which may have been sudden.

“In the future, when Gongja Lee becomes the Heavenly Demon, I will become the commander-in-chief of the Heavenly Demon Church. “Can you entrust such an important responsibility to me?”

“I will take over when I have played a big role in becoming the Cheonma. “It’s not something I’ll leave to you; you’ll have to step up on your own.”

After getting it right, I added a joke.

“Still, it would be easier to become the general of the Demonic Cult than to be my right hand man.”

Gowol smiled slightly.

“I saw it earlier.”

Just like my suggestion, Gowol didn’t worry about it either. He knelt down and formally bowed.

“I may be a poor person, but if you accept me as a soldier, I will serve you with all my loyalty. “I swear to the gods of heaven and earth with my life and honor.”

I also officially accepted him.

“From this moment on, Muin Gowol, I will make you my general. Please lead me well.”

I trust the enthusiasm in his clear eyes more than his words. I believe in my destiny that brought him to me.

“Please speak comfortably from now on.”

“I guess so.”

This moment to welcome the second month was special. This is because it is a moment to free yourself from the burden of having to handle everything on your own.

I took his hand and helped him up.

“First, let’s restore your health.”

“I am okay.”

“There’s no need to rush. I still need you ten, twenty, thirty years from now. At some point during that period, we may have to go to war with the Murim Alliance or appease the Sado Alliance. There could be a rebellion or a strong enemy could attack us. “I wasn’t looking for someone to advise me today, but someone who would be with me through everything in the future.”

At that moment, Lee Chae flashed across Gowol’s eyes.

“You’re thinking that far. Gongja Lee is truly an unpredictable person.”

“The person I am now has an unpredictable side, but the person I am later could be a very predictable person. But that doesn’t mean the lives of his subordinates aren’t precious. You need to help me now, but you need to help me then too. “We have a very long way to go.”

“I’ll keep that in mind.”

This time Gowol asked me.

“May I ask you a question?”

“Do as much as you want.”

“What will you do if you find a soldier who is better than me in the future?”

“Become his assistant and help me. What is it like? “Is my answer acceptable?”

“I passed.”

“Wouldn’t you be disappointed? What if I bring someone else in and say that from today onwards, this person is my soldier?”

“The reason I came to see Gongja Lee was not to build a relationship. It means you don’t need to be friends with me. So, when such a situation arises, you must accept it unconditionally. You can’t even make such an obvious choice? Then, as a soldier, I must be an asshole or a bad person. You must be firm. “For Confucius and for me as well.”

Gowol certainly had extraordinary insight. He knew that if he was caught up in affection, he would end up ruining the relationship even more.

“Actually, Mr. Lee is such a smart person that I wonder if he really needs me.”

“People can’t always be smart, right? You and I will both make mistakes. Still, isn’t there a small chance that both of them will make a mistake at the same time? So, let’s go discuss it together.”

“What kind of life has Mr. Lee Gongja led?”

How could I explain that life to him? I told him what Sima Ming had told me on behalf of my life.

“A soldier I respect said that. “A good soldier is one who is smarter than the opposing army.”

“Is my opponent a Murim Alliance soldier? Or is it that respected soldier?”

“both.”

Gowol will guess. The fact that the respected soldier I was talking about was Sima Ma Ming, the general commander of our school. It means becoming a soldier who surpasses him.

“You have work to do in the future. Create an intelligence organization and take control of all information in the central government. “We aim to become an organization that is superior to Tongcheongak.”

“yes!”

“Is that something that can be answered so easily?”

Gowol asked back with confident eyes.

“Isn’t that why you had such a hard time bringing me here?”

* * *

Several days passed.

Gowol focused on getting his body back in shape for a few days. No separate residence was prepared. I decided to stay in my guest room for the time being.

As has been the case since the first day, he woke up early today.

“Are you awake?”

“Did you sleep well all night?”

“I slept well.”

“What are you doing this morning?”

“Here, take this money first.”

I handed him the bundle of slips I found on the battlefield.

“You will need money to create an organization, so spend this money.”

He was not surprised even though he confirmed that it was a large sum of one million nyang.

“What are you going to do if I run away with this money?”

“We need to release someone and catch him.”

“And then?”

“Let’s melt down the fans and daggers we’re making now and put the shackles on first. And then you have to show it to the person you hate the most. Even then, you have to act well with a mysterious feeling.”

He seemed to find it difficult to bear this joke and laughed out loud.

“Come on, let’s go out and eat today.”

So I came out to Magachon and saw the head of Pungcheon sitting on the second floor of the Pungryu bar.

“The owner of this place told me that the leader of Pungcheon Church had already come alone twice. I think he wants to see you. What is it like? Would you like to meet him?”

Otherwise, there is no way the leader of the Pungcheon Church would come here and eat twice.

“Yes, I wanted to meet you anyway.”

I solved my problem, but these people still had problems to solve. Yes, even if we fight with the burden on our backs, we have to fight with the burden on our hearts.

We slowly walked to this floor.
