“Nice to see you again.”

“I don’t know how long it’s been like this.”

“Long time no see.”

An inn owned by Hwayang Sangdan.

Me, Geomhu, and Hwagon Daju sat around a large table.

Even though it had been several years since they last saw each other, they didn’t seem to have changed much.

In the case of post-mortem examination, he actually looked younger than before.

‘Have I reached a new level without seeing you?’

It was noticeable that his skills had clearly improved compared to before.

It felt like I had stepped into the realm of absolute perfection like Woo Ga-jin.

As I remember, in her previous life, she did not achieve that level of true heights during this period.

It meant that her growth was accelerated due to some variable.

‘...Is it because you lost the match with me?’

It was a well-known fact that Geomhu Yeo Hwa-yeon was a female warrior who was the embodiment of martial arts and competitive spirit.

How resentful a person like that must have felt when he lost to a mere late Jisoo.

[I was so passionate about winning that it was hard to hold back. If it’s okay, can I apply for a job in the future?]

I remembered how in the past she had a competitive spirit when she saw me.

After the dance was over, they insisted on competing again.

‘If you look at the conclusion, is it a good thing?’

They say you don’t know what’s going on in the world.

At the time, the post-mortem examination felt like a burden, but it was a strange feeling to think that it was an opportunity for her to grow.

Of course, it could have been an illusion.

It is true that due to my regression, Geomhu grew faster than in his previous life, but whether that was due to indirect or direct influence was unknown to anyone other than the person involved.

‘I can’t even ask you outright if you were so angry at losing to me.’

It was literally just a guess that rubbing against me would have stimulated her.

Originally, enlightenment was something that suddenly came to you even when you looked at a rock on the side of the road.

It wouldn’t be surprising if a small factor, far from a grand cause, changed her greatly.

“I never thought that you two would apply to the Cheonan Inspector General.”

As I continued to make formal remarks, I glanced sideways in the direction where the Great Master of Hwagon was.

Jin Hyeong-gon, the Great Lord of Hwagon.

He was a master of the pinnacle of wielding an iron gun one length long.

His skills have also improved much more than before.

Mu-wi, who is capable of competing with a hundred great masters.

Although my memories are vague, the Great Master of Hwagon in his previous life must have been listed among the top 100 great masters around this time.

A thought came to mind recently when I heard a story from the owner of Hwayang Sangdan about those who wish to join the company.

‘I was just surprised because it was a somewhat unconventional decision, but in fact, it was not that strange that Geomhu applied to the Cheonan Inspectorate. The one that feels uncomfortable is the Hwagon Daeju.’

Basically, Geomhu, as he is known to the public, has a personality that cannot tolerate injustice.

And my relationship with him wasn’t bad either.

On the other hand, what about Hwagon Daeju?

Although he has never openly confronted me, he had several minor conflicts with me when he joined the mission.

He had a secret relationship with me under the pretext of testing whether he was qualified to serve as the representative of the delegation, and he also showed support for Hwang Bo-kyung, who often disagreed with my decisions.

It would have been difficult for him to join the Cheonan Inspector General, where I was the head.

“You both are responsible for important positions at the monastery. Is it okay for you to be away for a long period of time?”

“it’s okay. “The head of the family also gave permission.”

“The entire Murim is suffering from measles due to the Demonic Cult, and we can’t just sit back and watch forever because it’s something happening in a distant land.”

“.......”

“Not only me, but also several of the monk’s disciples came to Honam to apply for Cheonan Gambu. “He should be taking the entrance exam by now.”

Unlike Geomhu, who drew a soft smile at the corner of his mouth, Hwagon Daeju appeared to be carefully observing me.

At first glance, it seemed that he had not decided to join the alliance of his own volition.

A writer like this has the nickname of dragon.

“Please allow me to return to my family.”

“.......”

“If a coward like me remains in the department, it will only ruin the atmosphere. So...”

“Hwangbo Sohyeop.”

I cut off Hwang Bo-jin’s words without even listening to the end, and released my energy with my whole body.

Hwang Bo-jin’s complexion turned white.

“Please don’t ask too much of me.”

“Yes yes?”

“This is an act that violates the department’s strict rules. “You don’t know?”

“That’s...”

“The Murim Alliance is not a children’s playground. “It’s not a place where you can come in and leave if you want.”

Squeak!

I tore the document in half while holding it with both hands.

Hwang Bo-jin’s eyes shook violently.

“After experiencing the war, I lost confidence in living as a military man. I guess you want to say something like that. “I’m not a generous person enough to listen to a fool like that.”

“Ha, but.”

“I want to do a safe job that doesn’t put my life at risk. Please leave the paperwork to me from now on. If the request had been made like this, I would have listened to it. “It would be a shame to throw away outstanding martial arts talent, but if that is the will of the Hwangbo Sohyeop, then what can we do with respect?”

“.......”

“But you’re leaving. “This has gone way beyond the line.”

Cheonan Gambu was a department with a fixed period of activity.

However, in other words, it also meant that the withdrawal process could not be carried out at will until the war was over.

If Hwang Bo-jin was allowed to leave here, a bad precedent would be left.

I couldn’t tolerate that much.

“Why do you think it is a little uncomfortable for Sohyeop, whose name is a dragon, to come out of the armed forces and carry out paperwork?”

“.......”

“Seeing as there was no answer, it seems that such thoughts were not absent. Do you know that the current attitude of the cooperative is disparaging other members who are working fine?”

“I swear I didn’t mean to.”

Hwang Bo-jin shakes his head with a puzzled expression.

It didn’t look like he was lying.

It was probably true that there was no intention to disparage the paperwork team.

But I wasn’t planning on stopping here.

The points that needed to be pointed out had to be clearly pointed out.

If you don’t, the same thing will happen again.

“Whether you leave the execution team and move to the paperwork team, or leave the group and return to your family. “In the end, becoming a fugitive is the same.”

Grumble!

The torn paper caught fire.

After creating a samadhi fire and burning the documents, he opened the window to remove the acrid air that had filled the entire office.

“If you are going to become a fugitive anyway, don’t abandon your duties and responsibilities.”

“.......”

“I’m not doing this because I have a favor from the head of the family, Hwangbo. “It’s not like I don’t want to miss out on Sohyeop.”

“.......”

“Unmotivated members are rejected from my side. “The Hwangbo Sohyeop must know that they are holding back what they want to throw out immediately.”

“.......”

“I will issue a probation order. The period is one month. “Not only will you be prohibited from entering the department, but you will also be prohibited from going outside the department.”

“All right.”

“Once the probation order is lifted, I will assign you to the administrative team. “If you have any objections, please speak up now.”

Hwang Bo-jin, who politely handed over his power, left the office with heavy steps.

As I quietly stared at the back, I buried myself in the back of the chair and let out a long sigh.

‘What should I do with that person?’
