Regressor’s Life After Retirement

—————————————

[Murim Competition (4)-Scam Item]

Namgung Hwi could hardly come to his senses.

Whick!

The sword sharply pierced the bloodstream. As I spread my steps to avoid it, the tip of the sword bent like a snake and followed me.

Cheaeng!

“Ugh!”

I threw the sword away with difficulty. I tried to get into position to counterattack, but Namgoong Hyeon didn’t give me enough time to do so.

Wedge!

“Huh!”

I took a breath and stepped back from the fearsome swordfish. The space where I had been standing just now was torn apart by sword grass.

gulp.

I was heartbroken to think that if I had been late even for a moment, a hole would have been punctured in my body.

Nam Gung-Hwi looked at Nam Gung-Hyeon with a completely different perspective than before.

‘This is ridiculous!’

I thought that among my peers, there would be no reviewer better than me. He is the successor to the great Namgung family and received direct guidance from his father, who was a teenage expert.

But what kind of thing is this?

‘That too for women!’

Namgoonghwi’s face turned red with shame. The boy felt countless eyes around him.

As the rumor spread that Sogaju was dancing, warriors from Sega came flocking to the place.

Some of them had their hands on their swords, ready to intervene at any time.

“…It’s a legitimate business. “No one should step forward until I tell them to do so.”

‘sister!’

To put it bluntly, my sister said that.

Well, if the dance ended in this state, it would be no different from admitting defeat.

‘I’m going to lose?’

When I thought I might be defeated, my breathing became heavy with fear.

As my breathing became more difficult, my walking technique became disrupted, and as my walking technique became disrupted, my eating habits became distorted. The lack of practical experience was clearly revealed.

On the other hand, Namgoonghyeon had a wealth of practical experience. From a young age, being chased was part of my daily life and I fought against the fear of death. He was much more courageous than most men.

In addition, for the past month, I have received special training from Manbaknogoe along with Daein.

On top of that, the transsyllable veins were gradually improving, so it was as if his natural talent had gained wings.

“Confucius. “I lack concentration.”

“profit! “Shut up!”

Compared to Namgung-hwi, who was so excited that he couldn’t show even half of his original skills, Namgung-hyeon became more and more calm.

‘I was born as the heir to such a large family…’

Even my anger subsided at the other person’s pitiful appearance. Namgoonghyeon even had time to look around.

‘grandfather.’

Old Man Jin clenched his fists and looked at his granddaughter. Seeing his granddaughter overpowering the So family head of the Namgung family, he felt an overwhelming emotion that could not be explained in words.

‘Brother.’

On the other hand, Daein had a sour expression. But Namgoonghyeon was happy. That expression meant that he thought he was going to win, so

that was it. The great man frowned and sent a message.

[Stop and finish. A monster is coming.]

[A monster?]

[It’s not the old monster master… I think it’s Namgung Jeongcheon. No one else may know, but it’s better not to show him your martial arts skills. Finish it now or say you lost.]

[I’ll win now!]

Namgoong-hyeon immediately made a bet.

Whick!

As the opponent boldly attacked, Namgoonghwi gritted his teeth and swung his sword. However, the two men had different mindsets when it came to competing.

“omg!”

Namgung-hwi looked at the sword flying towards him and made a fuss

.

Namgung-hyeon didn’t even blink when a sword came in front of him, even when the sword wind cut off his hair and a scratch appeared on his cheek.

At that moment, Namgoonghwi forgot the situation he was in and admired the other person.

‘How can you be so calm…’

At that moment, the game was decided.

Cough!

Namgunghwi’s sword left its owner’s hand and flew through the air. Namgoonghyun dove into the opponent’s wide open arms and struck Namgoonghwi’s chest with his left fist.

Pow-!

With the sound of a drum exploding, Namgoonghwi flew for a while and rolled on the floor.

“Lord Soga!”

The surprised warriors of the Namgung family screamed. Some of them drew their swords and surrounded the Daein group.

At that time, Namgoonghwi, who was lying on the floor, raised his arms.

“…Okay.”

He slowly got up. I wiped the blood flowing from the corner of my mouth with the back of my hand. And then I walked to Namgoonghyeon.

“…Sozer.”

Namgoonghyun was a little nervous. I wondered what he was trying to say with such a serious expression.

‘You’re not trying to break your promise to write a letter of recommendation, are you?’

Namgoonghwi said.

“I lost. “Let’s do it again next time.”

“…yes?”

“I lost today. But this is not my original skill. I was nervous. So let’s do it again next time.”

“What kind of nonsense?”

Namgung-hyeon laughed because he was dumbfounded. Anyway, since he had admitted defeat, it seemed unlikely that he would break his promise.

“Do you think it will be different next time? And I have to participate in the Yongbongbi dance. “I don’t have time to hang out with Confucius.”

For some reason, Namgoonghwi just laughed despite her harsh words.

Did you get a head injury?

“How old is Sozer? He looks similar to me, but the minimum age is required to participate in the Yongbongbimu…”

Namgoonghyun lied with a gloomy expression.

“I’m eighteen.”

“no way. “You don’t look more like a sister than me.”

“Because I didn’t grow up eating well like others.”

“…….”

Nam Gung-hwi was momentarily speechless and closed his mouth.

However, I wanted to add at least one more word.

“Hey…”

“Are you going to write me a letter of recommendation as promised?”

“Of course. “I will write it in my name right away.”

The Sega warriors looked confused at Sogaju’s sudden panic.

Only Daein and a few other people understood the situation at a glance.

‘Anyway, the Murim guys…’

They were a race of people who fought to the death with swords, and friendship and love blossomed, but their brains were somehow strange.

‘But aren’t they from the same sex? What are you doing?…’

There’s no way these two will end up together anyway. Even because of the bloodshed between the two families.

A love that can never come true.

Namgoonghwi, who couldn’t even guess that fact, blushed and said.

“Then can I come cheer for Sozer during his match?”

“Confucius me? why?”

“Hmm. Because it is a match for the person who beat me…”

Unfortunately, Namgoonghwi did not hear the answer.

At that moment, the true owner of the Namgung family appeared.

“What is all this about?”

It wasn’t a loud voice. However, it contained a lot of inner power, and the momentum that unfolded naturally took over the surroundings.

“Matriarch!”

“Matriarch!”

The gathered warriors split off to the left and right, and a man who appeared to be in his mid-30s – although he was originally much older – walked along with the guard warriors.

The great man watched his opponent closely.

‘That man is Namgung Jeongcheon.’

It was a name that was always mentioned when discussing who was at the top among Moorim’s teenage masters.

“father!”

Namgung Yerin and Namgung Hwi also rushed over to show respect.

Namgung Jeongcheon looked around at the traces left by Bimu, and soon his gaze passed through Namgunghyeon and reached Namgunghwi.

“Hwiya. Could it be that you were defeated?”

“…….”

Nam Gung-hwi could not answer and lowered his head.

When people saw that, they thought Nangong Jeongcheon would be angry at his son.

But no.

“Puh…”

Namgung Jeongcheon looked at his son with his head bowed and then burst into laughter.

“Fuhahaha! This guy. I knew it would be like this someday. Didn’t your father tell you? “With your skills, there is no way you can beat Yongbong.”

“Father… it’s too much.”

As if he had anticipated this situation, Namgoonghwi pursed his lips and grumbled. Namgung Jeongcheon burst out laughing again at that sight.

“Fuhahaha!”

Changcheon Shingeom Namgung Jeongcheon was famous as a great hero in the martial arts world.

He was fair in everything he did, considerate of the weak, devoted to his family, and when he saw injustice, he drew his sword before anyone else.

He was a person who played a major role in the war between political and evil forces that would take place in the future.

But….

‘When I looked at Hyeoni earlier, I lost my life, even if it was just for a moment.’

It was only for a moment that Namgung Jeongcheon showed his life that no one other than Daein noticed.

‘It’s a different face of a thief… It’s fun.’

The great man thought so and looked at Namgung Jeongcheon.

At that moment, Namgung Jeongcheon was also walking towards Daein. This was after hearing a brief explanation from Namgung Yerin about what happened.

“I heard you were the benefactor who saved the nanny. “I am the father of this ugly guy.”

“It is an honor to meet you. “Changcheonshingeom Daehyeop.”

Daehyun politely took the gun. At the same time, prayer was revealed.

‘You can’t completely fool an expert like this. ‘It’s better to shed it in moderation.’

Namgung Jeongcheon’s eyes opened wide.

“You’ve achieved very quickly for your age. A new divinity has appeared in Moorim. “Hehehe!”

Namgung Jeongcheon smiled while saying that. It was a bright and clean smile that seemed to brighten the surroundings for an instant.

But inside, Daein felt a ray of cold energy.

“Let’s go inside first. “I’m very curious about the story you have to tell.”

“Thank you for your hospitality.”

***

That evening.

Namgung Jeongcheon quietly watched the back of Daein walking away from the window of his room.

“……”

There was no charlatan known to the world there. There was no gentle expression or soft eyes to be found.

Nangung Jeongcheon only gazed at the shrinking back of the great man with a cold gaze.

“Biyoung.”

At a soft call, a man in a black mask fell from the ceiling and prostrated himself on his back.

“yes. “My lord.”

“A guy called the landlord. What do you think?”

“He is a suspicious person. As far as I know, there is no sect called Baekjiammun in Guangdong, and the speaking style is not like any other regional dialect, but it is strangely unique.”

“Is he a stooge of the Demonic Cult?”

“I don’t think so.”

“…….”

Throughout dinner, he heard many stories from the great man, but Nangong Jeongcheon did not trust any of the information.

“okay. “He’s a suspicious guy.”

Being known to the world as a great tyrant has many benefits, but it is also quite tiring.

‘Even if you see a suspicious person, they capture him and torture him so he can’t open his mouth.’

Moreover, since it was said that Sega’s military family had received a favor, Namgung Jeongcheon, a great knight known to the outside world, had no choice but to welcome them.

In addition, he even wrote me a letter of recommendation so I could go to Yongbongbimu.

Actually, there was no need to write a letter of recommendation.

If only my stupid son hadn’t made a bet with some girl.

Namgung Jeongcheon recalled the scene he had seen earlier and exhaled his will to kill.

“You poor bastard. Are you saying my son was diagnosed by a woman? “He is a failure.”

“…….”

Biyoung lowered her head without saying a word. Nangong Jeongcheon paid no attention to him and continued speaking.

“There are more and more things to worry about. Just the news sent from the Moyong family about the strange bird that appeared in Xinjiang was enough to cause a headache…”

Not long ago, the general of the Moyong family sent me a letter.

The story was that the dark blood group entrusted with tracking down the survivors of the Geomwangmun had been wiped out, and an unknown master had stolen all the documents related to it.

The moment he read the letter, Namgung Jeongcheon almost screamed in front of his subordinates.

‘There is someone who is digging into things that have been completed. Who is it? Is it Jinchung, a lion sword? No, he doesn’t have the skills to do that. So are they the old file room guys? ‘Did they smell something?’

Namgung Jeongcheon’s mind was complicated.

As expected, it should have been completed perfectly 15 years ago.

‘Nangung Merchant….’

He still often sees the face of the last lord of Namgung Merchant Geomhwangmun in his dreams.

『“You vile bastard… wait. “Someday, the day will come when you will pay for your sins.”

Eyes filled with resentment and anger. Namgung Jeongcheon dug out the eyeball with his own hands.

“Could it be… that the son of Merchant Namgung has returned as a master?”

It was the most plausible reasoning. All of the Geomwang’s descendants were born with talents that were not human-like.

And at that moment, strangely enough, the landlord’s face came to mind.

‘That guy. He was quite an expert. It was clear that he had already reached his peak at that age. If you have talent, you can do it….’

No way?

But Merchant Namgung’s child would have been sixteen at most, right?

The landlord looked at least three or four years older than him.

After a while, Namgung Jeongcheon solved the question himself.

‘If they grow quickly, they can become that big by the time they are fifteen. ‘The face may have been covered with a bast mask or an axillary ball may have been used.’

This is the first time I have heard of a sect called Baekgageommun.

The strange journey of coming here by defeating Green Forest.

Along the way, he rescued a woman who worked as a nanny at the Namgung family?

Is all of this really a coincidence?

The doubt grew steadily until it became more than half a certainty.

Namgung Jeongcheon looked back at Biyeong and gave an order.

“Biyoung. Investigate him. “Where did this guy come from, what is his purpose, did he intentionally approach Sega?… Investigate everything thoroughly and report it to me.”

“My name.”

As soon as he answered, Biyoung’s appearance disappeared.

Namgung Jeongcheon, who was left alone in the room, was lost in thought for a moment.

And

“…I guess I should meet Mo Yong-wook.”

He began writing a letter to send to the head of the Moyong family.

***

“Brother, what is that in your ear?”

Namgunghyeon asked, looking at the object Daein was holding in his ear.

Immediately after the group left Namgung House, Daein was wearing something that looked like a round black bead in his ear.

“this?”

Daein tapped the Bluetooth earphones in his ears.

At that moment, Namgung Jeongcheon’s voice was coming out of the earphones.

[…I guess I should meet Mo Yong-wook.]

Daein replied with a grin.

“A fraudulent item brought from Earth.”

Daein installed bugging devices throughout the Namgung family, including Namgung Jeongcheon’s room.
