Chapter 318

Episode 318

“As promised, the Lord of the House of Lords must come forward and help with the relocation plan.”

“I will keep my promise. “You provoked your junior for no reason and then you ended up bleeding needlessly.”

King Hwang Bo-gak let out a bitter smile.

Seeing him dejected yet obediently accepting the outcome, the bitterness in my heart melted like snow and disappeared.

There were many twists and turns, but in the end, I was able to eat an absolute master whose name was listed in the Ten Thousand Emperors.

It was literally the best result.

With this, all preparations for the Shandong Akga relocation plan were made.

“It was a great skill. “The nickname that calls you may change in the near future.”

“If it wasn’t for the condition that I only had to endure 300 sums, I would have lost.”

I must have felt relieved.

I returned the sword to its scabbard and saved the king’s face with a loud voice.

“There is no need to be humble. Even if it were Botaam’s sword, he wouldn’t be able to withstand three hundred sums against me. “You are truly one of the best players in the midfield.”

“There is still a long way to go. “I’m just finally able to look up at the wall.”

“The reality is that an ordinary unmanned person cannot even face that wall.”

“It was a good sparring. Thank you for your teachings.”

“It’s been a long time since I had fun.”

After politely hugging him, he turned around and walked away.

Just before leaving the training ground, the sound sent by Hwang Bo-gak pierced my ears.

-Before you go, can you tell me one thing?

-Do you have any questions?

-Even if I think about it again, I still don’t understand it. What exactly is the method that broke my finger?

-That’s one of my secret tricks, so I can’t give you a detailed explanation. But I will tell you this much. At that time, what Taesanggaju hit wasn’t my abdomen.

-if?

-It was a sword sheath.

-It was a sheath? No way.

-It is an illusionary sword because it deceives the other person’s senses.

This has become clear through the current conversation.

The fact that the skills I have honed over the past few years are also applicable to absolute experts.

I hummed a song inwardly and headed to the dormitory where the Cheonan inspectors were waiting.

* * *

“I can’t believe it.”

“No matter how much the conditions for victory and defeat were set, it was the head of the Taesang family who lost, not anyone else.”

“I can see it with my own eyes. “The rumors about the Heavenly Dragon are by no means exaggerated.”

“I heard that the martial arts people of Sichuan support and praise Cheonryong like that.”

The training ground where Yeonsun left.

A roaring noise filled the stands.

Hwang Bo-gak handed the removed gauntlet to the waiting warrior and sighed.

‘Is it unfortunate or fortunate? ‘The mood seems to be more focused on Heavenly Dragon’s unreasonable inaction rather than the fact that I was defeated.’

It didn’t feel as bad as I thought.

On the contrary, I even felt willing.

How long has it been since I last saw a junior with such high expectations for the future?

For the first time in a long time, I felt my blood boiling.

‘Why don’t talented people like that come out from home?’

As I turned my head and scanned the audience, Hwang Bo-jin, with a very depressed expression, came into view.

Hwang Bo-gak clicked his tongue.

‘He’s not a bad guy.’

It was clear that he had talent, as he crossed the threshold of transcendence without even being able to stand upright.

The problem was my frustrating personality.

“I’m asking you to quietly eliminate the person I designated.”

“...I’m a little perplexed that you suddenly ask me to kill someone. “I will listen to it until the end and then make a decision.”

I pretended to be troubled and scratched my head.

For some reason, before I started talking, I felt like I was surrounded by energy.

Contrary to his appearance, he still had a cautious personality.

“The name of the person I want you to deal with is Hwang Bo-hoon. “He is a collateral figure who has recently been rapidly increasing his position within Sega.”

“May I ask why you want to get rid of him?”

“I don’t think you’ll care about that, but I’m not instigating something that goes against the right path, so don’t worry.”

“I will listen and judge for myself whether it is against the grain or not. First, please tell me the reason.”

“It’s simple. Because he crossed the line.”

“......?”

“Even if it was said that he had pushed out his rivals in a dirty way and ascended to the center of power, I couldn’t bear to see him rise to the top of the family.”

“Is it possible to take over the position of head of the family? “Didn’t you just say that he was clearly a collateral figure?”

“It was originally impossible. But what if all the children born to the head of the family at the time gave up on succeeding to the head of the family?”

“Are you saying that the family head’s biological children are not interested in martial arts, so we have to select an outstanding person from among the family’s blood relatives to become the next head of the family?”

“It’s similar. It’s not that there are no children who learned martial arts, but all of them have limited talent and have achieved low levels of achievement. “It is said that the head of a large family requires abilities other than military force, but does that mean the head of the five generations must be a weakling?”

What Hwang Bo-kyung said was right.

In the end, the most important thing in martial arts was power.

The head of the family is the face that represents the family.

If such a family head’s martial arts skills were poor, he would inevitably be ignored by those around him, no matter how great his skills were.

“I roughly understood the situation. “The reason why the elder wants to get rid of Hwang Bo-hoon.”

“Let me tell you this, I don’t hate him simply because he is a sidekick. “I just decided that there would be no future for the Hwangbo family if he ascended to the top of the family.”

“I don’t understand why you’re so worried. “Even if there is a fight for the position of head of the family anyway, isn’t it unlikely that someone from a collateral line will win the competition?”

“Just as there are various factions within the Murim Alliance, there are also factions within Hwang Bose. And behind Hwang Bo-hoon, there are three elders from collateral backgrounds.”

“Hmm.”

“I’ll say it again, if Hwang Bo-hoon had the ability and character to be the head of the family, I wouldn’t have instigated your assassination.”

“What on earth did he do that makes you say that? Did you join hands with local black thieves to raise funds through fraudulent means?”

“That would be better.”

“......?”

“One of my direct reports discovered that he was involved in human trafficking.”

“Human trafficking? Is that really true?”

“Do you think I’m going to try to deceive you by making up words that don’t exist?”

“If you are an elder, I think you can get by with that.”

“.......”

“It’s a joke.”

“Unfortunately, we were unable to secure physical evidence. “He was so meticulous that he created double and triple escape holes.”

“Well, if you found solid evidence, you wouldn’t have asked me to assassinate you, but you would have taken it to Gajujeon.”

“It’s okay if I don’t give you an answer right away. If you have any doubts, conduct your own investigation. Perhaps he or she is working with a certain intelligence group, right?”

“.......”

“I’ll wait for a positive answer.”

After finishing her business, Hwang Bo-kyung left the dormitory at a brisk pace.

Left alone, I stared at the steaming teacup and muttered.

“If you’re not going to drink even one sip, why did you ask me to bring you tea?”

* * *

First of all, there was a need to gather information.

Unfortunately, Chen Jialing was currently in Jiangsu, so he had to find a local Hao Wen Dao and submit the request.

I walked down the street with the jade tablet, symbolizing Hao Wen’s guest, hanging on a ring at the end of my sword.

How much time has passed?

A man carrying a load of firewood on his back approached me and spoke to me.

“Please come this way.”
