Moon-Shadow Sword Emperor

Chapter 67



Episode 67

– Then, if at all possible, save him and subdue him.

-Anyone who puts down their weapons and surrenders will be spared.

-The person who steps forward is the leader of the group. Make sure to keep him alive. There’s something I need to ask.

I narrowed my eyes.

‘captain?’

The person leading the thirty magic bandits is not the leader but the leader.

This meant that there were several more such mounted units.

“You’re younger than you look. “Are you the child of some wealthy person?”

The commander leading the magic bandits rode his horse and approached me.

He stopped in front of Ban Jang Street, looked at me with his eyes, and muttered.

“For that matter, your outfit is ordinary.”

“…….”

“There must be more people in the carriage, right? “Summon everyone.”

“…….”

“Can’t you hear me?”

I put a cold smile on my lips.

He broke away from the group on his own and came to me, so I was just grateful.

Damro was pulled out from his waist.

The sword spouting from the sword point skimmed across the masked man’s chest in the blink of an eye.

I fired a few thunderbolts at the man who was screaming and falling from his horse, and soon his body stiffened like a log.

“what!”

“this guy! “What have you done!”

The courageous horsemen rushed forward, each holding their weapons.

As thirty horses ran at once, the earth shook and clouds of dust rose.

I glanced back.

‘It must be difficult to fight while protecting the carriage.’

I instructed the driver to take refuge inside the carriage and then ran towards the horse bandits.

The speed at which I unfolded the ghost beam was faster than the speed at which a horse runs.

‘Finish it before they get to the carriage.’

Twenty-third herbivorous month (水月).

The remnants that remained along the sword’s path crumbled into countless blades.

The horsemen let out a bewildered cry as the phantom blades surged in like waves.

However, what was even more surprising than them was none other than the horse.

Hee hee hee!

Heeheeheehee!

The horses, which have more sensitive senses than humans, were so excited that they ran wild.

Because of this, the battle line collapsed and many people fell from their horses.

I jumped into the middle of the magic bandits’ camp and sprayed them without hesitation.

Meanwhile, Dojang Cheonwoo, who had taken off his hood and mask, chased after the fleeing magic bandits and cut them down.

“Holy shit… Wow!”

One of the magic bandits who managed to escape from Cheonwoo Dojang fell down, clutching his neck.

It was as if my uvula had been pierced by the memorization that came from inside the carriage.

Dojang Cheonwoo breathed a sigh of relief and confirmed the kill.

It didn’t take a single moment to subdue all the magical enemies.

I muttered as I looked down at the demonic enemies who had been suppressed by their blood swords and were kneeling.

“I don’t think I’ll be able to receive the reward if I take him to the government office anyway. “Wouldn’t it be okay to kill them all, leaving only one person behind?”

“What are you talking about!”

Dojang Cheonwoo shouted in surprise.

I spread my arms out and spoke in a harsh tone to the man who blocked my path.

“Isn’t it easy to manage and supervise this many people?”

“Killing people because they’re annoying, is that something a person would do?”

“No one will be sad if these guys die anyway.”

“Just because someone is evil doesn’t mean you can kill them at will. “We should at least give them a chance to change their minds.”

“Say the same thing to those who were robbed of their wealth, had their wives and daughters kidnapped, and had their families murdered by these guys. “I guarantee you that you will live a long life.”

Isn’t there a saying that if you curse a lot you will live longer?

After hesitating for a while, Dojang Cheonwoo came up with a puzzling answer.

“…Some people become thieves to feed their families.”

“At least these guys don’t seem to fall into that category.”

Unable to overcome their poverty-stricken lives, those who have become thieves gather in groups and engage in witchcraft?

It was a story that made a passing dog laugh.

“And no matter what long-winded reason you give, stealing is stealing. “If theft is excused because of circumstances, what happens to people who earn money in a legitimate way even though they are in the same poor situation?”

“Still, it is not acceptable to kill even those who gave up their weapons and surrendered. “It is unreasonable behavior.”

“Then Dojo Cheonwoo will be fully responsible for their management.”

“I will… What did you just say?”

The magic bandits who were in a state of joy and sorrow as they watched me and Cheonwoo Dojang exchange a war of words let out a sigh of relief and drooped their shoulders.

After successfully handing over the chores to Dojang Cheonwoo, I immediately changed the topic.

“So what happened so far?”

“That’s what I wanted to ask. “Where on earth have you been while I was gone?”

“It’s not a big deal, I just dusted off some of the legacy left behind by the previous person. “Everyone did their part.”

“You mean you left me out of that?”

“Aren’t you the one who said you wanted to take individual action first?”

“No matter what, he didn’t say a word to me…”

“I didn’t really need the help of Cheonwoo Dojo.”

“…I thought it was somehow strange. “Is this the reason you supported me, even giving me funds for my activities?”

“If anyone hears it, they will think I was trying to get rid of the Cheonwoo seal.”

“So you’re saying no?”

“Of course not.”

I smiled naturally and shrugged my shoulders.

Dojang Cheonwoo sighed and shook his head.

“So this is already the third time I’ve asked. “Where have you been and what have you been doing all this time?”

“I didn’t tell you before I left. “I plan to do my best to help the suffering residents of Zhejiang.”

“Is there any relationship between infiltrating the stronghold of magic bandits and helping the residents of Zhejiang?”

“I received a request from a child. “I will give you all my money to help you find my kidnapped sister.”

“……?”

“I felt sorry for you. “The image of the child crying bitterly while holding out two silver coins is still vivid in my mind.”

“Is that all right?”

“What do you mean?”

“I’m just asking you if that’s why you risked your life to infiltrate the magic bandits’ stronghold.”

“Do you need any more reasons than that?”

I stared at the Cheonwoo seal with a bewildered expression.

I couldn’t understand the way of thinking at all.

A human being who is usually so proud of being a member of the volcano sect that he looks down on and ignores others, shows an infinite weakness to the tearful appeal of a child.

It was difficult to figure out which one was the essence.

“Please help me.”

“What are you asking for help with?”

“These guys are not just a bunch of magic bandits. As I said just now, the number of people here is only one group. The reality is much bigger. “The scale is comparable to that of most breakwaters.”

“Are you saying that you are going to raid their stronghold?”

“Just like you said. “It may be difficult for me alone, but if the cooperative helps, I will be able to save the kidnapped people.”

A laugh escaped me.

When you are faced with a situation that you feel regretful about, it is said to be small-minded.

Whenever you act recklessly and talk nonsense.

“Is there an operation?”

“No.”

“What is detailed information such as the location of the base, the size of the troops, and the location where the kidnapped people are detained?”

“I tried to infiltrate myself and find out.”

“Are you saying you tried to hit me with your body without any prior preparation?”

“Because there was no other way.”

“What about the follow-up? Did you think that after freeing the kidnapped people, they would be able to return to their normal lives? “How were you going to deal with a group of demonic bandits going on a rampage seeking revenge?”

“…….”

“Seeing as there was no answer, it seems like you had no idea.”

“Help me just this once. “I will make sure to repay this debt.”

“Why would you at least give me a token of gratitude?”

“If you want, I will give it to you. “In the name of a monk, I promise to repay your kindness.”

I rubbed my chin and was lost in thought.

I asked this as a joke, but I didn’t expect to get such a firm answer.

‘I never thought he would even give up a reward card to save someone he didn’t even know.’

The conditions weren’t that bad.

Although Cheonwoo Dojang himself was not a very great person, his teacher was an absolute expert who held the first rank of the Ten Heavenly Emperors.

Depending on the situation, the thank you card he gave me could also be very useful.

“Tell me everything you know about them.”

“Do you feel like helping?”

“I will listen and decide.”

“I don’t know much. The only thing that is known is that they are a force that refers to themselves as the Black Wind Army, that the size of the group is considerable, and that they are not a force that was originally active in Zhejiang…” “The force that flowed in from abroad

is “You mean?”

“That is highly likely. “They probably saw this Japanese invasion as an opportunity and moved their home.”

“Hmm… … .”

If it was a force that came from other places, there was a high possibility that it would not participate in the struggle to conquer Bidong.

Because they are busy laying the foundation for settlement, they will not have time to engage in a power struggle with the local martial arts forces.

In other words, if I started acting as a righteous bandit according to Damun’s plan, I would inevitably come into conflict with them.

‘If it’s something that has to be done anyway, there won’t be a problem if the timing is brought forward a little.’

After finishing the calculation, I nodded, feigning a reluctant expression.

“great. “Let me help you.”

“Really?”

“yes. “But there is a condition.”

“condition?”

“To be honest, the plaque that Dojo Cheonwoo personally gives me is not of much value to me. “I don’t know if it’s from the Volcano Sect or the Plum God’s Sword.”

“…….”

“So, I would like to make one additional request. “I have something planned, so please help me with it without pay.”

“As long as it doesn’t deviate from the right path.”

“You don’t have to worry about that part. “It is about punishing evil and providing relief to the suffering people.”

I crossed my arms and quietly reassured Cheonwoo Dojang.

It could be said that it led to satisfactory results.

In addition to the rewards, I also acquired a useful slave.

Although he had little experience and could not utilize it properly, it was clear that Cheonwoo Dojang’s martial arts skills were outstanding beyond his age.

‘We have time until winter, so if you trim it a little in the meantime, you’ll be able to make enough for one person.’

I felt like humming a song.

However, because it was in front of Cheonwoo Dojang, he pretended to have a nonchalant expression.

“First, let’s go to Hangzhou and make plans.”

“There is no time for that. Meanwhile, the kidnapped people are going through severe hardships.”

“Anyway, you don’t even know where they are.”

“Why not find out by interrogating the captured magical enemies?”

“What if we interrogate and find out? Are you going to lead them and charge into their stronghold?”

“…….”

“The one who insisted that they should not be killed was none other than the seal. Once the captured magical enemies are not handed over to the government office, free movement is impossible.”

Cheonwoo Dojang looked at the magic bandits and me alternately, as if he were conflicted.

I continued talking as if to drive a wedge in.

“They told me to go back the more urgent it was. If you want to safely rescue the kidnapped people, keep your cool. “The process of obtaining information and making plans based on it is essential.”

“…What the cooperative said is right. Let’s do it that way.”
