Chronicles of the Demon Faction

Episode 160 Return, and (6)

“What?”

Xiliang narrowed his eyes.

“What does that mean?”

“So… um.”

He cleared his throat a few times and continued speaking.

“A special escort would like to see the Prince. However, the person subject to special escort cannot leave his current residence… so I told him to convey the message anyway…”

“Why are you blurting out your words like that?”

“Oh, I’m sorry.”

“Okay, what does it mean to be a special escort?”

Ma Dong-pil straightened his back.

Upright posture. At this moment, he was no longer Seo Liang’s personal guard, but a proud member of the three guards of the Protectorate.

“A special escort is just what it sounds like….”

“It must be a person who needs a special escort.”

“….”

“no?”

“That’s right.”

“What I’m curious about is how much significance this person who needs special escort has to our school.”

“Those who are subject to special escort are the people that the guardian court should take care of as a top priority.

Of course, they are also great customers to our school. Therefore, when escorting the subject, senior officials from the defense court cabinet are sometimes mobilized.”

Seoliang tilted his head.

“What is the cabinet again? “Was there another organization like that in the defense court?”

“Oh, Confucius, you didn’t know.”

Rather than saying you don’t know, you probably lost your memory.

Ma Dong-pil was no longer surprised by anything Seoryang said or did. At least as far as Protestant work is concerned.

“The defense court cabinet refers to the secret leaders of the defense court.”

Ma Dong-pil explained in detail about the former masters who formed the cabinet.

Seo-ryang made an evil expression.

“Sentai expert? “Not only the previous guardians, but also the former Mazon and Demon General are included?”

“That’s right.”

A subtle pride was visible on Ma Dong-pil’s face as he answered.

It’s worth it. If this is true, it means that the Protectorate is the strongest organization on campus, filled with monsters from the past.

Seo-ryang stuck out his tongue.

‘You’re crazy. Are you saying that you’re not just retiring, but spending your final years as a member of the defense court’s cabinet?’

They usually take it easy, but when a special mission comes up, they rush out and solve the situation.

It is truly an amazing organizational system.

Although they are seniors from the previous generation, they are usually retired, so they will not be able to interfere in the affairs of their junior guardians.

Isn’t it just a tool that stays quiet and is used only when necessary?

‘You mean you choose to do that voluntarily, not because the leader tells you to do it?’

Where on earth does this loyalty come from?

Xu Liang shook his head.

“That’s why I did it.”

“yes?”

“I’ve only briefly seen it a few times before. “The Lord of the Protectorate.”

“Oh yeah.”

“He was a tremendous powerhouse. Even compared to the world’s top ten masters, there was nothing lacking. In other words, it means that he is an expert on the same level as the Old Great Mazon.”

“of course. He is someone who does not usually reveal himself, but even the religious leader acknowledged his martial arts skills.”

“I thought it was an organization filled with strong people but somehow lacking, but that wasn’t the case.

There was a reason why there was a large gap in martial arts between the Lord of the Guard and the members of the organization. “If you want to wield such monsters, you must have the appropriate skills.”

“That’s right.”

A faint smile appeared on Ma Dong-pil’s face. I was glad that Confucius thought highly of Wonju.

Xiliang shook his head.

“I thought the Shinjangbu was the strongest expert group on campus.”

If there are a few Mazon from the previous generation, it means that there are several more masters in the defense court who have reached the extreme level besides Wonju.

There is no one who does not know how powerful a force one absolute master can be.

A master of extreme magic is one who can easily handle ten thousand troops in the true sense of the word.

‘It was not the Senate, but the Court of Protection. The strongest organization of the Heavenly Demon Church in name and reality is the Protectorate.’

Seo-ryang’s eyes sparkled.

‘The best shield of Protestantism was ultimately also the best spear.’

In terms of the number of troops, the Heavenly Demon Church is difficult to compare to a fierce city. Nevertheless, the reason it is considered one of the three strongest players is because so many absolute experts are ‘gathered together’.

“Oh, so anyway?”

“Yes. So, the special escort wants to see Confucius.”

Xu Liang’s face turned sour.

“I don’t know who it is, but I’m not interested. I’m already so busy. And what is it that tells me to come or go? “If you want to see it, you have to come and knock on the door.”

“That’s right. This is rude behavior. But I can’t go out of my home…”

“You mean I can’t go out of my home?”

“If a person subject to special escort enters our school, they are prohibited from going out in order to prepare for any unexpected situation.”

“Is it necessary to go that far? Safety is guaranteed the moment you enter our school. “What kind of person with a big liver would send Sejak or an assassin to our school?”

Seolyang actually felt uncomfortable saying those words. Because I was the one who almost became an assassin sent by that guy.

“I think so too, but I don’t think that’s what the higher-ups think. In any case, there is no harm in doing your best.”

“That too.”

Seo-ryang emptied the cold tea in an instant and stood up.

“Whatever it is, I’m not interested.”

“Oh yeah. “If you do, I will tell you so.”

“okay. Ah, but how did you hear about that from that special escort?”

“We haven’t met in person. “I just heard about it through a supervisor at the defense court.”

“I see.”

Seoliang turned his shoulders around.

“Anyway, come back quickly. “I have a gift for you too.”

“A gift?”

“There is such a thing, man.”

* * *

Three days later.

Seoryang, who was sweating in the training hall, suddenly heard the sound of a carriage.

Xiliang sighed.

“Who is it again?”

It was a time when we were about to lay the foundation for the Demon Emperor’s Limbo and begin it in earnest. When I heard the sound of the carriage, it was clear that it was coming this way.

Well, it’s a remote place, so when you hear the sound of a carriage, it has to be here.

After a while there was a knock on the door.

“Sam Gongja, I….”

“Please come in. “The door is open.”

“yes.”

I’m sorry.

The person who appeared through the open door was none other than So Yeon-sim.

So Yeon-sim bowed her head politely.

“The Lord of Hwanhee Won is meeting the Three Princes.”

“Long time no see.”

So Yeon-sim had a unique, beautiful smile.

“I’m sorry, it’s too late to say hello, right?”

“I know clearly that the construction work has been completed. “There is no need to come here just because you returned to school.”

“That’s a bit sad to say… hmm?”

“Why are you doing that?”

“….”

“…?”

“Confucius.”

“Say yes.”

A look of astonishment appeared on So Yeonsim’s face.

“You look a little… different.”

Seo-ryang chuckled.

“yes. “It’s a little different.”

“…how?”

Although it has been a long time since she competed in a real game, she still retains the keen spirit of a top expert.

As soon as So Yeon-sim met Seo-ryang, she noticed a change in him. At first, I thought it felt a little strange since I hadn’t seen it in months, but now I see that it wasn’t.

‘Extreme!’

When I looked into Seo-ryang’s eyes, my hands automatically gained strength. The clear black and white eye glow was still there, but the composure and dignity within it was causing a subtle tension.

“How long are you going to look at me like that?”

“yes? Ah yes.”

Soyeonsim sighed softly.

“The person I’m seeing right now is really the Three Dukes, right?”

“Is there anyone else as handsome as me?”

“….”

“You still don’t respond to nonsense.”

“How on earth did you get to the top?”

Seoliang tilted his head.

“It’s not something that can be explained in words.”

“Of course it is.”

“I was lucky.”

“That’s natural.”

“I know what you want to hear, but I can’t really give you an answer. “You just have to think that’s it.”

Even though he had reached the highest level, that personality still seemed to persist.

“But what brought you here?”

“What brings you here? “I came to see you after hearing that Confucius had returned to school.”

“Oh, you just came to say hello?”

“Yes?”

“You’re naturally good at lying.”

“If I were really trying to deceive you, wouldn’t even Confucius know?”

“I admit it.”

Seo-ryang pointed to his room.

“Please wait a moment. I’ll just finish what I’m doing and get into it. “It won’t take long.”

“Is it a water lily?”

“yes.”

“hmm. “Can I take a look?”

“Anyway.”

Soyeonsim was even more surprised when she responded sincerely to what was said as a joke.

“Are you sure I can take a look?”

“What can’t be done?”

“No, but…”

The martial artist does not want to show his training scenes to others. This is because they are worried that their weaknesses may become known to others.

It may seem like a very timid behavior, but it was a completely natural thing to do in the martial arts world where a single cut can lead to death.

Even though the pursuit of righteous evil demons was different and the sects were different, all martial arts people implicitly respected rules that were not rules.

Xu Liang said angrily.

“If you’re afraid of showing weakness, you shouldn’t go out into the world with a sword in the first place. “If you’re really that worried, don’t create a weakness.”

“That’s true, but…”

“Anyway, please wait a moment. “I think it will end within this time.”

“Ah yes.”

As soon as So Yeon-sim finished answering, Seo-ryang moved.

Move smoothly one step at a time. Seolyang’s face, which was instantly immersed, was as serious and reverent as that of a seeker.

So Yeon-sim couldn’t help but be impressed.

‘I’m concentrating. already.’

The kind of concentration that completely immerses you before you even have time to take a sip of tea.

Not everyone could have that level of concentration. A toxic personality can be innate, but concentration is an acquired ability.

Only now did So Yeon-sim realize how intense the Three Dukes’ thirst for martial arts was.

‘I guess he was able to reach the top level at that age because he had such outstanding concentration as a foundation.’

A subtle look of envy appeared on So Yeon-sim’s face.

‘It’s amazing that you have already become an expert in discussing the world at a young age.’

Xiao Yanshen still did not know how great the Grand Duke had reached in the closed coffin.

However, I was confident that at least he would not have shown as explosive growth as Samgongja. The growth of the Three Confucius was so fast that the eyes of those who saw it were suspicious.

‘It’s only been two years since I lost my martial arts skills.’

Now that I think about it, there is no such thing as a monster.

‘Maybe really…’

So Yeon-sim’s eyes deepened.

‘Couldn’t he win the next presidency?’

Regardless of how great the achievements he had accumulated so far were, the mere fact that he was able to reach the highest level at an early age made him worthy of being a three-gongja.

I know that Lee Cheon-sang, the religious leader of the time, reached the extreme point in the middle of his reign. Nevertheless, Lee Cheon-sang was evaluated as one of the top three monsters in the history of magic.

How should the Three Dukes, who ascended to the highest level ten years earlier than Lee Cheon-sang, be evaluated?

It was when Soyeonsim was lost in thought for a while.

Grumble!

She was startled by the sudden sound of thunder.

“Whoa.”

Seo-ryang is out of breath with his fist outstretched. Before he knew it, his body was covered in sweat.

“done. “We can do it this way.”

“Confucius.”

“yes? “Oh yes.”

“That can’t be right….”

Soyeonsim swallowed her saliva.

“Is it the Heavenly Demon’s Power Fist?”

“uh? “Do you recognize me?”

“I have no choice but to know.”

A strange look cast in surprise.

“My main skill is brute force.”

“…uh?”

“….”

“You’ve learned the art of force?”

“yes.”

Seo-ryang blinked. Considering his slender body and flexible magical energy, I thought that his main weapon was a long-armed sword that was good at fighting, but

did he learn such a strong and heavy fighting technique?

“Today’s conversation will be interesting in many ways.”

Soyeonsim’s eyes sparkled.

“After I explain why I came, would you like to have a quick game?”
