Chapter 210: The Purpose Of The Voyage (3)

‘This... just how...’

I could see Short Sword in front of my eyes, floating on its own.

-Ugh, this isn’t the Air Sword, Wonhwi.

Even Iron Sword sounded shocked as he said this.

-What is this? I can move as I please.

Short Sword floated in the air and moved around me. She really was able to move through her own will.

Just like Iron Sword said, this wasn’t the Air Sword technique.

-So what is that?

When one managed to cross the wall, their ability to use qi increased, and they would be able to move things with just qi. That was called the Void Weapon movement.

I heard this was the highest-level technique that could be freely used with a weapon or a sword. When used with a sword, it would be called the Air Sword.

Actually, I have never seen such a technique being used in front of me. It was closer to a legend. Even the Great Warriors didn’t use it.

-Why?

It was because it would exhaust the internal qi.

If you unleashed a sword technique like that, it was possible to attack the opponent freely, but it would use up a lot of internal qi.

Actually, I had tried doing it, but it was exhausting.

-Hik? So is your internal Qi running out now?

No.

My internal Qi was alright. It was just like when using the other abilities of the Big Dipper. Only my innate qi was being used.

But it wasn’t being consumed quickly either.

‘Hah!’

But this wasn’t so surprising. I was not consciously using it, but it was happening independently.

It was closer to watching something happen in front of me, like a vision.

-Yaya! This feels so good.

It was the first time for her to be able to move on her own will. Short Sword then stopped circling around me and flew to the sky.

Pak!

I hurriedly grabbed her.

-Let me play more!

Play!?

‘The sailors are roaming around the ship. What will I do if they see you flying?’

She fell silent at this as if she was feeling bad. I then heard Iron Sword ask me in a trembling voice.

-Wo-wonhwi. Can I move like Short Sword?

I don’t know.

All of this suddenly happened when the 5th star of the Big Dipper was opened.

We didn’t know how it worked. Looking at the back of my hand, I saw that the 5th star was shining blue.

-Maybe you can move too?

-I cannot. How was she able to move?

-I don’t know, brat. I just wanted to help Wonhwi, and then I suddenly moved.

-You wanted to help Wonhwi?

At that moment, the 5th star shone again on the back of my hand. Then, Iron Sword slipped out of the sheath on his own.

-Oh myyyyy! I moved, Wonhwi!

I am watching this as well.

Iron Sword was able to move on his own, just like Short Sword. He was flying in the air.

I could even see what Iron Sword was seeing. I saw my own head right next to Short Sword’s field of vision.

-Wonhwi, does it hurt? What is with your expression?

Just a bit dizzy.

In addition to my vision, I saw two other perspectives, making my head spin. Additionally, the amount of innate qi was being used faster.

Could this ability work like this?

I focused my senses just like I did with my innate qi.

Short Sword’s vision slowly disappeared.

‘I did it!’

At the very least, maintaining Iron Sword’s vision was fine enough.

How was it? How does it feel to move on your own?

-The best! This is the first time I am doing this. I never knew that moving on my own would make me this happy!

Iron Sword was clearly happy. Short Sword then grumbled.

-Tell him to do what I do.

Don’t pout now.

Iron Sword was only floating in front of me. You, on the other hand, wanted to fly in the sky.

Once we leave, I will let you move as you wish.

-Promise.

Iron Sword, return now as well.CHeCk for new stories on no/v/el/bin(.)c0m

-Yes.

But why was Cho Seong-won not coming?

-Does he also like her?

No.

He wasn’t that interested in women. At that moment, a group began to form in the corner.

‘What?’

The escort services were gathering. One of them had an armband which signified him as the leader.

But they were the only ones around us. From behind them, the Beggars Union came with their beating sticks.

-What happened?

I don’t know, but their looks were hostile.

I wasn’t sure what happened, but they looked as if they wanted to hit someone. I then heard someone’s voice.

“Hands off the sheath, sajae!”

The person who spoke to me was Hyuk Cheon-man. He then came through the crowd and approached me.

“Sahyung?”

“Hands off the sheath.”

Was he messing with me?

They were holding weapons but then were asking me to release mine?

So I asked.

“Shouldn’t I be informed about what is happening?”

“There is suspicion.”

“What do you mean?”

“I cannot speak of it right now.”

The Wind Wave King was being firm now. So what did he want to do?

Hit me?

“We need to take weapons off everyone’s hands.”

This was said by someone from the Beggars Union.

He wanted me to be unarmed now?

At this, the Wind Wave King shook his head.

“It is still a doubt. Nothing is clear, so do not act rashly.”

“But this is a big thing.”

“I said NO. Sajae, leave your weapons in your cabin.”

I had no idea what was happening.

“Sahyung.”

“I will protect sajae until the charges get proven, so trust your sahyung and leave the weapons in the cabin.”

“...”

Just what was all this?

Did they figure out my identity?

If that were the case, they wouldn’t simply act like this.

If I disagreed here, then we would have to fight again.

Since things could go wrong, I decided to follow along for now.

“... I understand.”

I eventually entrusted my weapons to the rest of my party. Sima Young and the others tried to follow, but I stopped them.

The door was being guarded now. It was as if they were being held in detention.

I told them that I would signal them if there was a problem, and they might have to run.

‘So far away....’

It had been quite a while since I was apart from Iron Sword and Short Sword. I could hear their voices becoming further away as I moved.

On the side of the largest deck, I could feel the presence of many people.

‘Around fifty.’

Among them, two seemed to be super master warriors.

As we passed the corner and reached the upper deck, I could see people wearing gray robes and those from the Beggars Union. In the middle was an old man in a white robe as well as a beggar with a cane in his hand.

‘...!!’

It was impossible for me to not recognize them.

I had met them prior to my regression.

The Southern Edge sect’s leader, Do Wook, and leader of the Beggars Union, Hong Gu-ga.

I had guessed that someone from the top of the alliance was here, but this was too much.

Well, it seemed like they were really determined to destroy the river families.

But that wasn’t the problem. Someone was kneeling in front of the leader of the Beggars Union.

‘Cho Seong-won.’

The Beggars Union leader looked at me hesitantly and gestured with his hand for his beggars to lift him up.

‘... ah.’

Cho Seong-won’s mask had been peeled off.

The leader of the Beggars Union then looked at me and asked.

“Do you know this person?”
