Regressor’s Life After Retirement

—————————————

[ Heir of the Sword Emperor (2) ]

Murim Lord Yayul Ki looked at the young man in front of him.

“He is the successor to the Emperor of Geom…”

He caused a stir by defeating Hwasan Shinseong, who was considered one of the favorites for the championship, in the preliminaries, and as soon as the finals began, he overwhelmed Sogaju of Mo Yong Sega, who was another contender for the championship.

‘With just two kisses, you made your presence known to everyone.’

In less than ten days, the entire martial arts community will learn of the emergence of a new divinity.

“Did you truly master the Sword Emperor’s martial arts skills?”

The great man answered Yayulgi’s question in a polite and courteous manner.

“I was able to gain the sentiments that he left behind.”

“her. “Then you have gained the greatest opportunity in the world.”

I was curious about what kind of reaction I would get if I added that I learned martial arts from Cheonma, but Daein suppressed his curiosity and maintained a straight young man’s smile.

‘Hmm…’

Yayulgi’s feelings as he looked at Daein were complicated.

A young man who appears ahead of the war against the Demonic Cult and claims to be the successor to the Emperor of Swords.

His martial arts skills were too outstanding to be dismissed as lies.

‘At that age, I’m already at the peak of excellence.’

Yayulgi secretly raised his internal strength and measured the level of Daein’s martial arts.

Using strong energy, it was clear that he had overcome the wall of transcendence. Among the 100 great masters, there would be very few people he could compete with, and he should be considered to be almost a teenage master.

The more I thought about it, the more absurd it became.

‘Does this mean that a young man with only the lowest grades has the martial arts skills of a teenage martial arts expert?’

However, Yayulgi is a master who competes for the position of leader among teenage masters. He believed that he was able to estimate the skills of great people on his own.

Ssssssut.

The Murim Lord’s inner power moved like a secret snake, scanning the great man’s body.

‘…It’s a skill level comparable to that of a teenage expert.’

However, there was something that Yayulgi did not know.

The fact that Daein was banned from using only a portion of his internal energy by Manbaknogoe, and

‘With my current physical condition, I can use up to 30% of my strength without difficulty.’

The [Concealment] trait that Daein possesses means that he has an excellent ability to hide his skills.

After finishing his judgment, Yayulgi opened his mouth.

“I have never met the Geomwang, but I have met Daehyeop, the merchant of Namgung, who was the master of the Geomwangmun in the past.”

To those words, Old Man Jin and Namgoonghyeon, who were sitting on either side of him, reacted more strongly than Daein.

Namgoonghyeon muttered with red eyes.

“Father….”

‘Father.’

Ya Yul-gi looked at Nam Gung-hyeon. She was a girl with off-white hair who was beautiful even now, but in a few more years she could easily be called the most beautiful woman in martial arts.

However, since he had never heard that Merchant Namgung had a child, Yayulgi could not hastily recognize her as the daughter of Geomhwangmunju.

That was a bit of a complicated problem.

“If you had met our Lord Mun, you would know. “These children’s sword skills were left behind by the Emperor of Swords.”

And the old man next to him is Jinchung the Lion Sword.

I’ve never met him in person, but I’ve heard a lot of rumors about him.

Ya Yulgi was also impressed when he saw Old Man Jin.

‘Among the 100 great masters, his skills are within the top ten.’

All three looked like dragons and tigers. People like this can’t fall from the sky, so most of their claims are probably correct.

Yayulgi thought so inwardly.

However,

the Murim Lord looked at Old Man Jin and said.

“The swordsmanship of the swordsmith is definitely similar to the swordsmanship of Daehyeop, the Namgung merchant I know. Also, several people recognized the lion sword, so its identity has been confirmed.”

The expressions of Nam Gung-hyeon and Old Man Jin brightened. However, Yayulgi’s words are not yet over.

“But the other two people, Chihyeopgeom and Namgung… it is difficult to recognize Sojeo as the Geomwang’s disciple and descendant.”

“What do you mean?”

As expected, Old Man Jin asked back with an angry look on his face. The great man reached out and calmed him down.

Yayulgi spoke with a heavy but determined expression.

“As far as I know, the head of the royal family had no children until he passed away.”

“I explained it all earlier!”

“The explanation alone cannot prove the bloodline.”

Yayulgi said that firmly, and this time he looked at Daein and spoke.

“Also, just because you have learned the martial arts of the Sword Emperor, it does not mean you can become a disciple of the Sword Emperor. “Is there any way for me to know whether you have truly obtained the spirit left behind by the Emperor of Swords or are simply a rare genius who has learned the martial arts of the Emperor of Swords?”

“…….”

The great man looked at the Murim Lord in silence. I wasn’t shocked because I had expected this reaction.

‘I knew it would be like this.’

The audience surrounding the non-stage immediately became immersed in the provocative and emotional story, but it was greedy to expect even someone like the leader of the Murim Alliance to do the same.

“I like you. He has already achieved great achievements in martial arts and has an upright mentality to the point where he is called a chivalrous swordsman. “It will definitely be the same amount that will support Moorim.”

‘The same amount is nonsense.’

Daein did not yet have a great reputation, foundation, or power to support him.

In the first place, it was impossible to be recognized as the successor to the Emperor just because he was an expert.

Yayulgi looked around at the three people and said.

“The Murim Alliance will protect you in the future. I will also support you if you need anything. however.”

The main point was always hidden behind ‘but’.

“I believe that the Murim Alliance cannot recognize the sword of the chivalry as the successor to the emperor of swords, and the identity of Sojeo here cannot be proven.”

“That means…”

Before the great man could finish his question, Yayuki nodded.

“I can’t give you the Changcheon God Sword. If you want it, win the Yongbongbimu and take it.”

Yongbongbimu must continue. And the Changcheon Shingeom was the prize given to the winner.

Yayulgi thought while looking at the great man.

‘Even if the winner is determined, Yongbongbimu itself is meaningful.’

No matter what anyone says, the highlight of the martial arts competition is Yongbongbimu.

Through this competition, the martial arts factions unite, show off their power, and build friendships with each other.

“So, if you truly want to become the successor to the Emperor of Swords, win the Yongbongbimu and stand at the forefront of suppressing the Demonic Cult. If you do that, fame will naturally follow.”

There was nothing wrong with what Yayulgi said.

But the great man had no intention of following his words.

Daein intended to prevent war.

‘It’s about time the news came…’

Daein glanced outside the door. I had sprinkled a lot of rice cakes before coming, so it was time to catch something.

After a while, a man’s voice was heard outside the door.

“Lord.”

There was a hint of confusion in the man’s voice. Yayulgi felt it and made a puzzled expression.

“Jegal soldier? “Please come in.”

The man who opened the door seemed closer to a bachelor than a military officer.

“What’s going on?”

The man called Zhuge Jun looked around at the people in the room and decided that it was okay to say it, so he said it.

“I think there will be a disruption in Yongbongbimu.”

“A setback?”

Yayulgi’s expression hardened. A problem arises with Yongbongbimu out of nowhere?

The Zhuge soldier said with an embarrassed expression.

“Suddenly, more and more people are abstaining.

“what?”

At that moment, Daein barely had to suppress the corners of his mouth that were about to rise.

The Murim lord jumped up.

“Abstention! “What does that mean?”

“That’s it…”

The Zhuge soldier turned his gaze to Daein with a perplexed expression on his face.

[It seems that the later indexes were frightened by the strength shown by the Sword of Justice.]

[Does that make sense! He only fought twice! I didn’t even kill anyone!]

It made sense.

The condition of the two people who fought against Daein proved it.

Hwaseongseong Yeongho-sik was hit hard in the middle of a meeting and became a eunuch, and

Mo Yong-jun, the head of the Mo Yong family, lost consciousness.

Mo Yong-jun didn’t even know that he had peed his pants, so he just moaned “Ugh…” and was eventually taken out by the warriors of the Mo Yong family.

[Besides, it seems there are rumors going around. Considering the skill that the Sword of Swordsmanship showed in the finals, the reason why Hwasan Shinseong did that in the preliminaries…] [

…could it have been done on purpose?]

Yayulgi’s expression hardened and he looked back at Daein. If that’s true, isn’t he actually a cruel guy, contrary to his appearance?

“you. Could it be that in the preliminaries…”

“Yes?”

“…No. no.”

If you ask, there’s no way you can answer the truth. The Murim Lord shook his head, deciding not to ask.

Instead, he turned to Zhuge soldiers and asked.

“So how many people abstained?”

“Five people have already abstained, and several others seem to be contemplating it.”

[Anxiety is growing among the participants as they do not know who will face the chivalry when the bracket is reorganized.] A

thick tendon sprouted from Yayulgi’s forehead.

[You cowards! How can these people who are at best afraid of martial arts competitions go to war with demonic religions?]

But on the other hand, if you ask them if they would put their efforts on the line in a martial arts competition, even Yayulgi would not easily nod his head.

The two people were talking using a mixture of vocal and vocal sounds, but Daein noticed what was going on.

‘The effect is better than expected.’

Bursting Hwasan Shinseong’s testicles was intended to prevent future crimes, but

making Mo Yong-jun urinate was intentional.

And before coming here, Daein passed by the late expats and gave them a good amount of rice cake.

“I still can’t control my strength well. If I’d been careful, I might have killed him… I’ll have to do better next time…” “

!!”

That was enough. Starting with Dae-in’s next opponent, Hu-ji Ji-soo, he began to abstain, making all sorts of excuses one after another.

“Suddenly I have a stomach ache…”

“Something urgent happened at home…”

“I think I was poisoned too.”

As the situation became like this, half of the late indexes who participated in the Yongbong secret dance suddenly fell away.

“Huh…”

Yayulgi laughed out of frustration.

The game was shortened because the participants abstained. How can all this happen?

“I feel like it’s my fault, so I feel ashamed.”

The great man lowered his head with an expression of genuine regret. I couldn’t even get angry at that sight.

‘What a shameful guy. Do you think I’ll give you the championship for free?’

“…I guess we’ll have to reorganize the bracket.”

Still, the late exponents of prestigious, proud schools remained. The later indices, which were considered candidates for the championship, did not resign easily.

Yayulgi decided to create the most difficult matchup for Daein.

And that was what Daein wanted.

‘I’ll increase my reputation with the remaining talented people.’

***

Bah!

King Sogeol of the opening was beaten like a dog and beaten to the floor.

Pow!

The Shaolin priest, who was a promising star of Shaolin, was hit in the stomach and flew all the way to the stands, where he was thrown upside down.

Cough!

A monk from the Hebei Paeng family broke his sword and stabbed himself with his own sword.

At the Yongbongbimu, which started again, Daein competed three times. And he won overwhelmingly all three times.

And the final final.

Wow!

Fire-like shouts poured out at the two people.

Two young men, who had achieved an overwhelming victory over the most powerful members of the martial arts faction, stood facing each other.

Daein looked at the other person and smiled broadly.

“We finally met.”

Shaman sleeping dragon Cheongun.

20 years later, the greatest person in the world and the Murim lord was standing in front of Daein.

Cheongwoon said with a shocked expression.

“Im Sohyeop. “Why do you look so happy when you see me, as if you’ve met a loved one?”

“For the first time, a master worth fighting against has appeared. “There’s no way I wouldn’t be happy.”

Cheongwoon smiled brightly, as if he was not offended by the compliment from a person who bordered on boasting.

“haha. I don’t know what to do with excessive praise. “I don’t want to disappoint you.”

“I’m looking forward to it a lot.”

Daein was sincere.

He knew that Cheongwoon was on a different level from other late indexes.

‘It probably won’t be easy.’

Therefore, it was also an opponent that Daein must defeat in order to gain the greatest fame today.

‘Let’s fight brilliantly.’

Slurp.

The great man drew his sword. It was no longer a cheap iron sword. Shalit’s ink-colored sword body radiated a magical aura.

“It’s a magic sword.”

Cheongwoon, whose eyes became cautious, also pulled out the Songmungosword. A sword body that was so fascinating that it captured all eyes was revealed.

“That sword is also a treasured sword.”

The great man knew the name of that sword. But I didn’t pretend to know.

“This is the sword that my master passed down to me. He got to a point where he no longer needed the sword.”

Saying that, Cheongun carefully aimed the tip of his sword at Daein.

“…….”

“…….”

The two men began to slowly move clockwise around the non-stage.

Cheongwoon said with a smile that did not suit the situation.

“Im Sohyeop. “Would you like to have a drink afterward?”

Daein also smiled and answered. He liked Cheongun. There was no man like him in terms of political connections.

“Good. “Let’s have a drink.”

It didn’t seem like there was any tension at all. However, the audience felt more tension than the two people.

They know that the moment one side reveals even the slightest gap, a merciless attack will begin.

gulp.

And the moment someone swallows saliva

!

The two men’s new forms moved as if they disappeared at the same time,

and aaaah!

Swords collided in the center of the off-stage and a shock wave erupted.
