Chapter 245

Episode 245: We will play with blood and wind.

The Poison King said nothing for a moment.

He blinked and asked.

“Are you asking me to play with you? And that includes Mabul?”

“That’s right.”

The Poison King placed his palm on Geommugeuk’s forehead to see if he had a fever.

“This is a side effect of Cheongidan.”

The Poison King grabbed her wrist and gave her a pulse.

“Is playing all day this difficult?”

Sword Dance stopped the Poison King from running away through the back door.

“There is no need to be too burdened. “I’m with you too.”

“I would rather go to the training ground and ask them to bark again. “Why are you doing this?”

“I want to take a day off. I also want to play with the Poison King. “Why don’t you just hang out with me for a day?”

Just as the Poison King was sighing, a merchant ship outside announced the arrival of Mabul.

The Poison King went out, cursing the sword dance with his expression.

“A precious person has arrived.”

“how are you?”

The two people greeted each other politely. Unlike Mabul, who tried to run away because he was uncomfortable, the Poison King treated Mazone well without losing his dignity as if he had never done so before.

“Is this your first time in Cheondoglim?”

“That’s right. “As I came, I saw beautiful views everywhere.”

“There are many better places.”

In fact, the Poison King also never visited the Golden Buddha Temple where Ma Buddha was located. Since he was a poison king who liked to stay isolated in the forest, he had no reason to go to the residences of other mazons.

After saying hello, Mabul looked at the sword dance.

“Gongja Lee was here.”

He said it as if he didn’t know Geommugeuk was here. The acting was pretty good. Even though he clearly knew that the sword dance performance came because of him, he welcomed the performance with the acting.

“also! I think Mabul and I have a connection. “If you see us meeting in places like this.”

“I guess so.”

“Seeing you so happy, I guess the time I spent with Mabul recently wasn’t in vain.”

Even with the Poison King next to him, Geommugeuk showed his emotions without hesitation.

“Then the Poison King won’t be offended?”

The Poison King intervened and asked.

“Why am I upset?”

“There is no one at our school who does not know the special friendship between the two of you, right?”

It meant barking together at the training ground.

The Poison King shook his head as he watched the sword dance.

“I’ve been going through all sorts of things since I met Lee Gongja.”

The sound of the King of Dogs immediately followed by Geommugeuk.

-Now is the biggest big deal!

Geommugeuk turned his head and pretended not to hear.

After saying hello, King Dok guided Mabul to the guest room of Cheondokmun Gate.

“Now come up here.”

It was like a cabin, and the atmosphere was very nice as it blended in with the surrounding natural scenery. It is a place that is rarely used because very few people visit, but the merchant ship always keeps it clean.

One person looks abnormally young and the other is abnormally small. There was also a sword dance performance, so this place seemed really special.

“Did you handle your expulsion from school well this time?”

“Thanks to your concern, we handled it well.”

The conversation ended and there was silence for a moment.

Although he was a man who met a lot of people, even he felt awkward in this situation. I had very little interaction with the Poison King, and I really couldn’t get used to his young appearance. Of course, the other person may also do the same when they see themselves.

The poison king’s sound flew into Geommugeuk.

-I’m already out of breath, so let’s play? It would be more fun to fight between life and death.

Fortunately, the atmosphere was refreshed when a merchant ship brought tea.

“The tea tastes great!”

Geommugeuk drank tea comfortably, but Mabul only played with the teacup and did not touch it to his mouth. If his subordinates had enjoyed tea here like a sword dance, they would have issued an unpleasant order. Do you drink the tea served by the poison king? You idiot! Rather die by my hands! In that way, the Poison King was feared by everyone.

“To be honest, the reason I came to see you today is because of Lee Gongja.”

Mabul glanced at the sword dance and continued speaking.

“I heard that Gongja Lee was here and came to see him. These days, I am completely absorbed in the fun of interacting with scientists and engineers.”

Geommugeuk clearly felt that Mabul was not the same Mabul as before. This time, he showed a new appearance, like someone who risked everything on his work. This kind of open-mindedness was not the character of Mabul.

“I’m curious. “What does the King of Poison usually talk about when he meets Prince Lee?”

Then the poison king spoke.

“I called you today and had you do some cleaning.”

Mabul was startled by those words. Mabul thought that the Poison King was displeased with his question.

“I guess I said something rude for no reason.”

At that time, Geommugeuk intervened.

“I really cleaned up.”

The Poison King admitted that he likes his own world and is not good at understanding other people’s feelings.

But he felt it. The more they watch the sword dance, the more they realize that some great fate is coming towards them.

Rather, I thought it was something I felt because I spent a lot of time in my own world. Something that Mabul, who is entangled in countless relationships, can never see.

“You have fallen for Lee Gongja’s intentions. “You were the victim of a trick and trick.”

“If Gongja Lee was that kind of person, the favor he asked me today would have been to persuade Mabul.”

“Then what did you ask for?”

“He said the three of us would have fun today.”

“!”

For a moment, Mabul had that thought. Ah, it won’t be easy to defeat Lee Gongja. How do you beat this crazy guy? The confidence I had when I first started was completely shrunk.

“If a scholar becomes the Heavenly Demon, bloodshed may arise.”

“Gongja Lee will be playing with that bloody wind.”

Mabul said no more. He felt that the King of Poison’s decision was firm.

‘It won’t be easy.’

If the poison king cannot change his mind, the only demons who support the archduke are himself and Gwonma. Also, Gwonma is only half-supported.

At that time, Geomgeuk, who was imitating a trainee under the waterfall, swam this way.

“Have you seen my waterfall water lily? It’s as if I became a warrior dreaming of revenge through extreme training...”

Without listening to all the words, the Poison King stood up and spoke.

“There is still more to see. Let’s go.”

Mabul also jumped up and followed him.

Geommugeuk came out of the water and shouted.

“why? Did I do something wrong? let’s go together! “Let’s dry those clothes and let’s go!”

I told you to get some rest. It looks like they just had an important conversation. So, how can people who have never played in their lives play easily? It’s lucky if we don’t fight.

Hwaaaaa!

As Geommugeuk walked, he unleashed a yeolyangjigi. Steam began to rise and the clothes began to dry in an instant.

* * *

I was thankful for the poison king.

He was trying his best to fulfill my request. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have made this suggestion.

“Let’s make a bet.”

Mabul showed interest in the word bet. I was curious about what kind of bet it was, and he had a strong competitive spirit and liked the bet itself.

“What bet?”

“In the forest here, there is a poisonous plant called Chilsaengcho (七生草), which has a seven-pronged mouth and purple fruits. “Let’s bet on who finds it first.”

“Isn’t that too much of a disadvantage to us? “The King of Poison must be familiar with the geography of this place.”

“I don’t even know where Chilsaengcho is. “I know it exists, but I can’t find it because it’s not related to me.”

Mabul didn’t think he would lie about something like this, so he asked again.

“If it’s a bet, there has to be a reward.”

I said this because the two of them were worried.

“Next time, when we have time, let’s have the losers drink at a pungryu bar to the person who finds them first.”

Poison King and Mabul nodded. The competitive spirit burned in Mabul’s eyes. At least for Mabul, it had more meaning than betting on alcohol.

“Okay. Let’s do it.”

So we wandered around looking for Chilsaengcho.

Even after searching for a while, it wasn’t easy to find. I even used my magic to search, but I couldn’t find it.

“I found it!”

The person who found Chilsaengcho was Mabul, who walked across the forest with his small body.

The Dog King and I rushed to him.

“Is this right?”

“oh! That’s right! “This is chilsaengcho.”

The Poison King looked truly moved.

“I can’t believe you found this precious thing. You are really good at gathering herbs. “Let’s go to the forest over there later.”

At the same time, the Poison King carefully plucked the Chilsaengcho. The sight was so full of sincerity that I asked with a feeling of uncertainty.

“You didn’t make the bet because you needed Chilsaengcho, right?”

At that moment, the back of the Poison King who was digging for Chilsaengcho flinched.

The Poison King said to Mabul as he carefully placed the Seven Saengchos in his bosom.

“Next time you come, let’s come out and play again. Mabul, come anytime!”

He greeted me as if he was saying goodbye and then the Poison King flew away.

He went that way.

Seeing the Poison King disappearing into the distance, Mabul looked at me and asked, ‘What on earth is going on?’

“We got hit! “They mobilized us as gatherers!”

Mabul thought my words, which could have been serious, were a joke.

“This place must have been very uncomfortable.”

From a distance, the Poison King glanced back at me.

The look in his eyes said: I’m having a good time.

And...

my efforts end here, now it’s your turn.
