Episode 541. Like most wicked people,
the one-eyed demon was not a one-eyed demon from the beginning.
Originally, his name was Hwa-pung.
It is because of Shin Cheon-eung (神天鷹) that the Shinsoo, who was called the ‘Wind of the Grassland’, turned into a one-eyed [獨眼] ghost horse.
Shin Soo Hwa-pung lost an eye after being defeated by Shin Cheon-eung.
And, like most of the gods who lost their divinity, their painting style turned into a monster.
The one-eyed demon has only one goal.
It is to regain his godhood and take revenge on Shin Cheon-eung.
So, he ate strong beasts and filled up his lack of aura.
In the meantime, he met a human called Yeonjeok, and obtained his spirit with difficulty.
But what is this?
The spiritual energy of Yeonjeokha began to grind away the spiritual energy of the one-eyed demon that he had worked so hard to build up.
The one-eyed demon was shocked by the unexpected result.
The pain of losing an eyeball to Shin Cheon-eung was nothing.
Reiki is the driving force and source that will one day reach godhood.
That spirit began to dissipate.
The one-eyed demon remembered death.
After Yeonjeokha’s aura changed his own aura, it seemed that he would eventually swallow even himself.
Suddenly, Yeonjeokha’s words came to mind.
– But will you be okay? It doesn’t matter to me...
-I’ve seen people like you who had a hard time being greedy for aura.
I thought it was a pity.
It’s because you’re not the only one who absorbs spirit energy.
Didn’t even humans eat Yeongji Seoncho and Beast’s Naedan to get spiritual energy?
I did, but I feel like I’m melting from the inside.
While I was thinking about it, I heard Yeon Jeok-ha’s voice.
“I thought I’d leave if I had nothing more to see. Are you okay?”
-good.
Looking at the back of his head as if he had waited for it to turn around, I feel confused.
Just go and go
He must have had a little bit of responsibility for what happened to him
.
– Am I going to die like this?
Yeonjeokha returned.
“What are you talking about?”
One’s own bet is not poison.
Of course, that alone doesn’t kill anyone.
But will you die?
– I am asking if I will become like that after I change the spirit energy.
“Is there a spirit that can change the body?”
-....
The one-eyed demon couldn’t answer.
Even if you think about it, belated regret that it was a little stupid came over.
“You said it earlier. He said that he had seen people who suffered from being greedy for spirit energy. don’t die I just suffer enough to die. You will have to avoid strong beasts for a while.”
-Did you tell me, who was a divine beast, to avoid beasts? Were there predators avoiding their prey?
“If the predator’s teeth are weak, you should avoid it. Do you know that other beasts live without notice because they have no pride? If you’re weak, you have to hide. Is it the weak meat diet?”
– How long will I have to live like that?
“I don’t know. I only know one thing. You don’t die just because your spirit energy is scattered.”
– Do you mean living a life worse than dying?
“Have hope. who knows Will I be able to recover my spiritual energy and become a Shinsoo again?”
-Did the human you mentioned covet your aura?
“uh. And at my old age, I paid a heavy price.”
– He... How is it?
“An old man who was groaning all of a sudden had a half-romp one day. So don’t give up either.”
-That’s comforting. If it goes as you say, one thing at a time...
The one-eyed demon was speechless.
“What if? Will you tell me more about where Yeongji Seoncho is?”
-joy! Don’t compare my reward to such trivial things. good.
The one-eyed demon turned around with the horse and walked to the cave where the two-legged black dragon lived.
He waved his hand furiously at the one-eyed demon that was making a rivalry.
“okay! well thought out! Don’t wander around and get eaten, stay hidden!”
When the one-eyed demon disappeared, Yeonjeokha also left the cave.
In the bright moonlight, a man was running like the wind on top of a tree.
It is a relationship that broke up with the one-eyed demon.
I wonder if he came out late because he was seriously injured in a fight with a one-eyed demon.
However, there were no visible injuries on the outside.
“Are you hurt anywhere?”
“yes. are you okay.”
“Why did you come out so late? Do you know that five days have passed since you entered the mountain?”
“Ah yes.”
Yeonjeokha nodded his head with a lukewarm face.
He didn’t even know that it would take this long to find the snowy mountain in Woraksan.
“Are you late because of the one-eyed demon?”
“That’s right.”
“I knew I would! You’re so late to avoid the poison-eyed demon!”
Gong Ji-yu shouted with a triumphant face.
It had happened several times before, so she had no doubts.
“You didn’t fight a one-eyed demon, did you?”
“once?”
“ah! you fought So how did it go?”
In the meantime, I reached the campsite before I knew it.
Before Yeon Jeok-ha could reply, Yu-hyeon Yoo grabbed a ladle—hot and steamy—and crept closer.
“Kite grand bargain! Are you very late? What about meals?”
“You have to eat. I think I will die of hunger.”
For five days, Yeonjeokha’s gaze did not leave the caldron after wandering between inner and outer music.
Lee Yoo-hyeon hurriedly poured the porridge into a bowl and handed it out to Yeon Jeok-ha.
It is time for him to hold a bowl of hot porridge and wait for it to cool down.
Gong Ji-yu sat down next to him and asked again.
“How did the fight with the one-eyed demon go?”
“I was reconciled.”
“....”
Gong Ji-yu and Lee Yoo-hyeon narrowed their eyes at the unexpected answer.
Are you reconciling with the monster?
I don’t know what kind of ghost washing and forgetting sound it is.
Gong Ji-yu, who barely came to his senses, tilted his head.
“Are you angry? Didn’t I hear that wrong?”
“Reconciliation is right. I didn’t expect much, but surprisingly, the words worked well.”
“Did you communicate well with the monsters?”
Gong Ji-yu glanced at the enemy enemy.
Come to think of it, he said he had talked to the one-eyed demon before.
Did you say that the name of the one-eyed demon was originally ‘Hwa-pung’?
“Yes, just like that.”
“So you said you wouldn’t attack people anymore?”
“I will.”
“really? Then, can I enter Naeak from now on?”
Gong Ji-yu’s eyes twinkled.
The outside school was too crowded.
It is because even those who should have gone to Naeak in the past are flocking to Outerak.
“That’s a bit...”
Yoo Yeon-hyeon slipped in at Yeon Jeok-ha’s rather negative reaction.
“Isn’t it that far yet?”
“You don’t have a single ear.”
“ah!”
That one word was enough.
Gong Ji-yu and Lee Yu-hyeon no longer showed interest in entering and exiting Naeak.
After having lunch with chowder, Yeon Jeok-ha and his party immediately left the Worak Mountain campsite.

Saneumhyeon.
Hyeoncheonmun.
Yushicho (5 p.m.).
Around dusk, Yeon Jeok-ha and his party arrived at Hyeoncheonmun Gate.
It was when Yeon Jeok-ha and his party had just entered the yard.
As if they had received the call from the gatekeeper, So Chun-wu, the head of Hyeoncheonmun, and the general manager hurriedly approached.
As soon as So Chun-wu’s eyes met Yeon Jeok-ha, he spoke in a resentful tone.
“Yeondaehyeop Why did you come so late? I thought I was going to lose my eyes while waiting.”
“Me?”
It was difficult to understand So Chun-wu’s words.
There was no reason for him to wait so anxiously for himself.
“Five days ago, a person from Cheonjimun visited. He was angry about what happened in Unmun-hyeon. He made the elder Geumbujin a crippled person and hurt his disciples.”
