Chapter 244

Episode 244 Because there is nothing to do.

Mabul came out of the main temple.

It’s meal time, so the sword dance will be waiting at the entrance.

Today is the fifth day since I had a meal with Geommugeuk.

Didn’t say anything else. After exchanging a few meaningless jokes, we ate and parted ways. It was similar to a battle of exploration by throwing grass at each other in a fight.

He might have thought that he would become more and more familiar with the sword dance while doing this, but it was entirely false. Golden Operation? Why is someone else carrying out an operation using his own gold?

‘I’m sorry, but that operation is mine.’

Yes, we will become friends. So, conversely, he will persuade Geommugeuk to give up his position as Cheonma.

This was Mabul’s plan.

If you can do that, there is no need to appease other Mazon. It is the fastest and most certain method.

Of course, Geommugeuk cannot be easily given up, but the reason Mabul saw the potential was because of the nature of Geommugeuk.

‘The master of science is moody.’

He was a more emotional person than anyone he had ever seen. That’s probably why other mazons fell for it. There’s one more thing.

‘He is a person who will always keep his words once he says them.’

And, crucially, we intend to end this succession fight peacefully.

‘There is definitely a chance.’

This is not a life of just reciting Buddhist prayers in a Buddhist temple. Hearing that you are blinded by power means that you have been diligent in meeting people. I will use that experience to face sword dance.

‘I’m different from other mazons!’

When I left the Golden Immortal Temple with such determination!

Hwiiing.

There was no one at the entrance. The sword dance that waited for him every day was nowhere to be seen.

‘Why didn’t you come today?’

I’m not the type of person to give up on the sword dance dramas I’ve seen so far so easily, am I?

Mabul waited there for a while for the sword dance.

Have you ever stood outside like this and waited for someone?

The sword dance did not come until all that precious patience had been used up.

The sword dance did not come the next day or the day after that. On the third day, Mabul could not bear it anymore and went to Geommugeuk’s residence.

‘What’s going on?’

And Mabul witnessed an unexpected sight there.

The sword dance was spread out like a corpse on a large rock in the yard.

The startled Mabul ran and looked down at the sword dance. Only then did Geommugeuk open his eyes. The gazes looking up and down met in the air.

“Are you here?”

“I thought you were dead.”

“I hope you enjoyed it for a little while.”

Mabul sat down on the rock.

“It’s comfortable here. My back is also cool. “Why don’t you lie down?”

“I’m done.”

The sword dance performance was definitely different from usual.

“I came here every day, but he didn’t come out, so I came to see what was going on.”

Geommugeuk looked up at the sky for a moment and spoke softly.

“Three days ago, while I was going to see Mabul, I suddenly saw the sky.”

Mabul’s gaze naturally turned to the sky.

“A bird was flying in a cloudless sky. As I was looking at that bird, a thought suddenly occurred to me. i envy you.”

Mabul looked at the sword dance.

“Why are you jealous? I have light air so I can fly like that? You can even fly higher and faster. Then I realized. “Oh, I’m having a hard time.”

The operation was an operation, but it was an operation filled with the sincerity of sword dance.

“I guess I was looking too far ahead.”

Not to mention his life before his return, he ran like crazy after his return. So what he said just now was his sincerity.

Mabul didn’t know what Geommugeuk’s intention was when he said this.

But one thing was certain. It was a life in which he only looked forward and ran forward.

I was born short and was made fun of, so I didn’t want to die. I hated sympathy and help even more. I worked really hard to get to this point.

‘Sir, you don’t know what it means to run while only looking ahead.’

Now, this rock was carrying two men who ran towards it, looking only ahead.

“From that day on, I was lying around for three or four days. “I’m sorry I couldn’t give you a message.”

In Mabul’s eyes, it didn’t look like Geomukgeuk was doing anything different. You have to gain something to do it, but what can you gain by lying here like a useless person?

‘Well, it must be difficult since I’ve accomplished so much at such a young age.’

I thought that if I took advantage of this hardship, I could probably make the successor give up more easily than I thought.

Mabul hinted at a suggestion.

“How about taking a break for a while? “Let go of the burden of having to be the successor.”

Mabul prayed inwardly. I hope you get an answer like this.

―Yes, I think I’ll just throw everything away, including the successor.

But instead of answering, Geommugeuk suddenly asked Mabul.

“Mabul, aren’t you having a hard time?”

Despite the sudden question, Mabul did not reveal his feelings at all.

“It’s hard because of you. “If you withdraw from the competition for successor, your strength will increase.”

“I found Giryeongcho (fantastic herb) in the corner of the safe house. “No one recognized that precious thing.”

“ah! Investigator Seo told me. “The Poison King dug up the entire safe house.”

“I was looking for Hwaryeongsa Temple nearby. Wherever Giryeongcho is located, there is Hwaryeongsa Temple. Cheongidan is made by combining the fruits of Giryeongcho and the inner altar of Hwaryeongsa Temple.”

“Why are you giving me this scary thing?”

“You should ask why I am giving you this precious thing.”

The Poison King spoke as if boasting about the effectiveness of Cheongidan.

“If you take Cheongidan, you will have a constitution that can withstand any heat or cold. “Even when you have no internal energy, you have a constitution that can survive even if you strip it naked and throw it in a desert, or if you strip it naked and throw it in a snowy mountain.”

That’s not all. It becomes much more advantageous when dealing with extremely positive or extremely negative martial arts.

“But the problem is that it’s so toxic that if you eat it, won’t you die?”

“that’s right. “I was greedy and tried to hold on to the efficacy of Cheongidan, but many of them melted.”

The Poison King stared straight into my eyes and asked further.

“But you can live, right?”

“!”

There was silence for a moment.

I could see it in his expression and eyes.

“You knew.”

“okay. I already knew that you were an invincible person. “We’ve been together so long and you thought I didn’t know?”

Indeed, the poisonous king was a poisonous king.

“It’s a shame. “I was planning to reveal this fact at a dramatic moment someday.”

“I was trying to dramatically reveal that I knew.”

“You succeeded. “I was very surprised.”

Even though the Poison King knew that I was invulnerable to poison, he was not as offended as he thought.

“I thought you would be very upset if you found out about this.”

“Why do I feel bad? “He’s the person I’ve been waiting for for a long time.”

“Is it impossible to kill all poisons?”

The Poison King’s eyes sparkled.

“You can test different poisons. Now, take this first and then tell me everything. What does it taste like and how strong is it? “What else should I add?”

I playfully took a step back.

“I have a science and engineering job. He is the person who will become the Heavenly Demon. This is the hell dog that roamed the training ground together. “I’m not a test subject.”

The Poison King laughed at my joke. Since he is the king of poison, of course he would hate to kill only poison, but it is only after living his second life that he realizes that this may be prejudice and prejudice.

“Then I will take it.”

I sat cross-legged and took Cheongidan. It was truly poisonous. If it weren’t for the Mandokbulchim, I wouldn’t have been able to completely dissolve this poisonous energy.

The taste was also more bitter and stronger than any elixir I had ever taken. It’s a bitter and strong record-breaking song.

“You made me write it like this on purpose to annoy me, right?”

It was truly a complaint I couldn’t help but feel.

In this way, all of the energy of Cheongidan was melted. Unlike other elixirs, Cheongidan’s energy seeped into all the blood vessels of the body, not just the Danjeon.

Now, even if you fall into icy water, you won’t die from the cold. Now, you will be able to light a decent amount of flame like a bonfire.

I bowed deeply to the King of Poison.

“I will never forget the grace of bestowing this precious elixir.”

“The grace has been granted. “Can you answer one question?”

“Even a hundred is fine.”

“Who are you dealing with?”

The poison king felt it. That there is some powerful purpose behind which I continue to move forward.

“As soon as I find Giryeongcho, I will send you a message.”

That’s how I said I couldn’t tell you. That alone gives half the answer. Because it wasn’t, ‘There is no such person.’

The Poison King’s gaze towards me became even deeper. Just as he was about to say something, a merchant ship came and reported.

“Mabul has come.”

“Why does Mabul come here?”

The startled Poison King glared at me.

“You made Mabul come to Cheondogrim. “What on earth did you do?”

It seems that Mabul has never been to Cheondoglim before.

“If anything, he would never have come here. “They come here because they don’t do anything.”

“I don’t know what you’re talking about.”

The Poison King quickly tried to go out the back door.

“Say I’m not there. “Mabul, that person is uncomfortable.”

I quickly blocked his path.

“I have a favor to ask.”

“next time.”

“If you do me a favor, I will come to you whenever you need a poison experiment.”

The Poison King sighed and ordered the merchant ship to bring Mabul.

“If you don’t listen, aren’t you going to pretend to be busy that day? “Either run out the back door.”

“You know that won’t happen, right?”

“So you listen. So what are you asking? “Convince Mabul to abandon the Archduke and come to your side? Or should I poison him and bury him in the forest without the rats or birds knowing?”

“Maybe it’s harder than that.”

My request was something the Poison King had never expected.

“Please play with us just for today.”
