Chapter 1025
Episode 1025
Reclaiming History (9)
There was silence in the square that was full of loud noises.
Between the square and Maengjubu, the Murim Lord’s public ambassadors, servants, elders, and elite military organizations were lined up.
Numerous members of the clan, warriors under Maeng’s direct command, and workers were standing around the plaza, reaching all the way to the outer castle in the distance.
Among them, those who were members of the anti-black faction were standing in dark colors near the center of the square. Although they were not active with the anti-black faction, there were also warriors nearby who had particularly strong hatred toward the black faction.
It was Zhuge Munho’s consideration. Although everyone’s location was not determined, those close to the anti-black faction were told in advance to stand close to Yeonhojeong.
Yeon Ho-jeong briefly bowed his head to the leader and the Dukes.
The public ambassador had no expression. However, Bonggong and most of the elders looked sad.
They failed to actively intervene in this situation. In the first place, there was a precedent that one of the Bonggongs was active as Sejak, so Maengjubu’s side thoroughly restricted their movements.
Fortunately, there was no Sejak among them. And they fully understood Maeng Jubu’s action.
Furthermore, most of them were close friends with Yeon Ho-jeong.
There were still some who felt uncomfortable with Yeon Ho-jeong, but they did not know how hard he worked against the three religions.
Black and white joining hands like this would have been unthinkable if Yeon Ho-jeong hadn’t been running around day and night. Regardless of personal feelings, everyone knew that Yeon Ho-jeong’s existence was great.
After saying hello, Yeon Ho-jeong suddenly looked at the mountain in the distance.
A street where not even a few experts can see. Monk Namgung and Jonglibaek were there.
‘No master.’
It was obvious even without looking at how devastated Namgung Seung was feeling.
This time, Yeon Ho-jeong slightly lowered his head. Although it was far away, he must have received his greeting.
“….”
He turned his head again and looked at the ambassador.
The ambassador’s eyes were deep and clear, as if he had mentally prepared himself. However, Ambassador Gong Gong was sad as a comrade who fought together, not as a senior or junior from a different generation.
Yeon Ho-jeong smiled.
It was a smile that conveyed the belief that we can do better in the future, telling us not to worry.
Next to the public ambassador were leading candidates who also came out.
Tang Sang’er’s face was full of sadness. The same was true for Pang Dae-ho.
Zhuge Jun tried hard to maintain a blank expression, but his eyes were also shaking.
Oh Gu-mun scratched his head. I didn’t have a big relationship with Yeon Ho-jeong, but even with empty words, it wasn’t an ill-fated relationship. Since it was my first time in a place like this, I couldn’t help but feel uncomfortable.
and.
“….”
Namgoongpyo had lost some weight in those few days.
The look in his eyes when he looked at Yeon Ho-jeong was complicated.
He knew that Yeon Ho-jeong was not the culprit and let go of his jealousy towards her. However, since his father died and Yeon Ho-jeong was involved in the situation in some way, it would not be true.
Yeon Ho-jeong politely took the sword towards Nam Gung-pyo.
“….”
Everyone gathered in the square looked at Namgungpyo in surprise.
Namgungpyo, who was quietly looking at Yeonhojeong, sighed and took a hand in his arms.
Yeon Ho-jeong closed his mouth and sent a message.
[I’m sorry. I have nothing else to say.]
Namgung-pyo, who was still in the same posture as he was fighting, soon relaxed his posture and sent a full sound.
[When we meet again later, let’s have a drink together in front of my father’s grave.]
[Thank you for saying that. Thank you and I’m sorry.]
[Thank you for your hard work.]
[Let’s see each other again.]
After exchanging simple greetings, Yeon Ho-jeong headed straight to the podium set up in the square.
Yeon Ho-jeong stood on the podium and looked around the audience.
Many people were seen.
A person who feels uncomfortable, a person who feels sorry, a person who feels sorry, a person who has no shame.
There were many people who were worried about the future, people who were confused, and people who were sad.
And, although it was a small number, there were people who were inwardly relieved, people who expressed joy, and people who expressed understanding.
Even though not all warriors belonging to the Murim Alliance have gathered, there are so many people.
And in order for them all to come together, it was right for him to go out.
Yeon Ho-jeong realized something again. How difficult it was to unite people with such different personalities, talents, and personalities.
In another way, I was grateful to Nam Soo-hwal-ui.
As a result, Yeon Ho-jeong learned about the world once again. Although he may make mistakes in the future, he will never fail. This one experience gave him a great realization.
‘That is why.’
That’s why they had to band together even more to deal with the three religions.
Yeon Ho-jeong opened his mouth.
“I felt really bad.”
It is unconventional from the first word.
His voice, filled with deep energy, spread far and wide while maintaining his calmness.
The warriors’ faces gradually became uncomfortable.
Yeon Ho-jeong continued.
“If the best efforts go awry to the point where people are unable to reflect on themselves, they feel defeated and lose strength. “Everyone has had such experiences.”
“….”
“But I just felt bad. “When I thought about why that was the case, the answer was very simple.”
“….”
“It’s just because I have a bad temper.”
Smiles appeared on the faces of the warriors who had become uncomfortable.
Yeon Ho-jeong said with a smile.
“I don’t know how you all view me, but I’ve lived a pretty hard life. However, if you ask me whether I have lived harder than anyone else in the world, I think it would be difficult to answer yes with empty words.”
“….”
“Everyone lives by trying their best in the circumstances they find themselves in. It’s just sad that we live in a world where it’s hard to achieve anything even if you try so hard. “It is the same whether you are from a powerful sect, a renowned absolute master, or a sect leader from a small sect on the outskirts.”
“….”
“Maybe I’ve become a lot arrogant over the years. “I have lived a fierce life, but not everyone achieves what they want by living fiercely, but I was lucky enough to succeed in many things I tried.”
“….”
“And now, for the first time in a very long time, I have tasted failure. Contrary to what I thought, it was not easy for everyone to be of one mind and one mind.”
Yeon Ho-jeong lowered his gaze to the warriors of the anti-black faction.
Most of them tried to avoid eye contact. Maybe even they didn’t realize it.
“It was only natural that I failed.”
“….”
“I knew very well that other people’s hearts were not the same as mine. However, perhaps because I had gotten used to it, there were some things that I pushed myself a little too hard because I thought everyone would be the same as me.”
“….”
“I would like to take this opportunity to sincerely apologize for driving too hard into the hearts of many people.”
Yeon Ho-jeong bowed his head politely.
The small master of the Mukryongbu, a man who could be said to be much more powerful than most of the warriors gathered here, bowed his head.
The hearts of those who were uncomfortable with that alone and those who were internally relieved by Yeon Ho-jeong’s departure were greatly shaken.
At least none of the people gathered here are unaware of Yeon Ho-jeong’s feat. Even if only half of what he did was true, he could be said to be a hero who would leave a mark in hundreds of years of martial arts history.
Naturally, the atmosphere had no choice but to calm down.
“So, please apologize too.”
Yeon Ho-jeong suddenly raised his head and his eyes were filled with hot lava.
The person who apologized tells you to apologize too.
A look of puzzlement appeared on the warriors’ faces.
“I’m not going to ask you to apologize to me. “Please apologize to the leaders of the Murim Alliance here and to those who risked their lives without a wink of sleep to fight against the Three Religions.”
“…!”
“I have always been a heretic. He is a heretic in his family, the Murim Alliance, and even the Mukryong Club. It makes sense. “I am a person who does not know the rules, and I am a vicious person who always comes up with tricks and is so vicious that I am called rude rather than unconventional.”
“….”
“But the people behind me are different. “These are people who listened seriously to what I said, which can hardly be called kind even with empty words, and silently prepared for war even though they knew that there would be strong opposition within the government or within the military.”
“….”
“It’s not me, but these people who are great. “If these people weren’t there, the Murim Alliance would have already been swallowed up by the Three Religions and turned into a sea of fire.”
The warriors’ faces turned white.
No matter when I heard the word war, it was bound to evoke fear. If only I were to die, I would give it a try, but it is a war in which all my people can die.
Yeon Ho-jeong spoke in a calm voice.
“The things I have done so far are things that anyone can do if they put their mind to it. However, the things that the leaders of the organization do are not something that can be done just because they put their mind to it.”
“….”
“What they want is peace. Peace is not a big deal. Peace is for the warriors gathered here and their families to live safely until they die without shedding blood.”
“….”
“If war breaks out, the peace of that family and group will be shattered.”
The warriors swallowed their saliva.
Yeon Ho-jeong, who was looking around the crowd with serious eyes, soon smiled.
“But I never thought I would lose.”
“…?!”
“It is true that we lack strength. But we have always faced crises like this. It was the same three hundred years ago, and the year before that, and the year before that. “Many people died, but in the end we saved this land.”
“….”
“Now it’s time for our car.”
“…!!”
“If each person has the determination to risk their life to fight against the enemy, that alone will increase the odds of winning this war. If half of you believe, half the odds of winning will increase, and if everyone believes, victory will be clear. “I think we have at least that much potential.”
The warriors’ eyes lit up.
Yeon Ho-jeong nodded slightly.
“I hope we can hold on just a little longer, even though it may be hard, tiring, and angry, so that our future generations can live comfortably. “If we endure for one year, future generations will live a year happier, and if we endure ten years, future generations will also live ten more years happily.”
“….”
“I will now go to another ally, Black Island Wulin, and unite them. “I will risk my life to be able to have the same determination as the warriors who showed their courageous eyes in front of me.”
“….”
“If you think even a little bit nonsense or forget your goal and wander, I will kill myself. “I am on my way with that level of determination.”
Yeon Ho-jeong bowed his waist.
“Please risk your lives together.”
There was a serene silence.
Yeon Ho-jeong, who had closed his eyes and bowed for a long time, slowly straightened his back.
“…!!”
At that moment, Yeon Ho-jeong’s eyes shook greatly.
From the anti-black faction warriors at the front to the warriors packed all the way to the outer castle gate.
Everyone was bowing to this place.
It may not be aimed at Yeonhojeong. It may be aimed at Maeng Jubu. Or it may be an oath to God. Maybe it’s just that I’m caught up in the crowd mentality.
But at least for this moment, they were all of one mind and one mind.
That alone was enough. People who have become one, even if only briefly, will be able to become one again.
Yeon Ho-jeong felt his eyes turning cold.
He said in a quiet voice.
“I’ll see you again in the new world.”
