Chapter 433

Episode 433

: Quaaang!

An arrow passed over the shoulder, shattering the wall and digging into the ground.

The man, who managed to avoid the arrow by tilting his upper body, took a vain breath.

If I had been a little late in reacting, I would have died by accident.

‘Damn it!’

It didn’t take that long to understand the situation.

I saw it clearly for a split second.

The strong energy surrounding the arrowhead.

In the entire Baekdo Martial Forest, there was only one being capable of performing such a feat.

Changmyeonggung (彰明弓), an archer ranked among the top 100 great masters.

A member of the Cheonan Prison Enforcement Team.

‘You’ve been caught!’

The fact that a member of the execution team attacked him meant that the Cheonan Inspectorate had dispatched its members to catch him.

I didn’t know why I was discovered.

Follow-up scent?

It was unlikely that he would have come here following a scent.

I knew from their appearance the night before that the Cheonan Inspector General’s location of the attackers was determined by smell.

So, before coming into contact with Namhakgeom, he identified the parts of the body that had Chujonghyang on them, ripped off the flesh, and burned it.

It may be a bit ignorant, but it could be said that the possibility of a chase was completely blocked in the most reliable way.

‘Did you get information about me by interrogating the captured believers? No, this doesn’t make sense either.’

Unlike priests, he did not reveal his identity to other believers.

I just recognized them as superiors and exploited them.

Above all, there was no way he could have obtained information through interrogation that he was disguised as a White Wolf member.

‘Could it be Namhakgeom?’

The man suddenly thought of one possibility and quickly scanned his surroundings.

The sight of White Wolf members struggling without understanding what was going on came into view.

‘Looking at their reaction, it doesn’t look like they got stabbed in the back again.’

My mind became confused.

The man shook his head to shake off his thoughts and pulled out a sword from his waist.

There was no time to leisurely reason.

What mattered was that he was in a desperate situation.

For now, I just had to focus on getting out of this place safely.

‘What should I do?’

He was not the possessor of transcendent inaction like the Demon Cultist.

I couldn’t handle all the Cheonan Gambu members who were flocking in alone.

What is the best move to choose in this situation?

The conclusion came quickly.

The man took a deep breath and shouted with energy in his voice.

“It’s an attack! Cheonan Gambu has attacked!”

* * *

‘this.’

The eyes of Bangcheoksam, the man pulling the bowstring, distorted.

He was a smarter person than I thought.

I never thought I would find a way out like that.

At his instigation, the members of the White Lang Corps were on high alert and began preparing for an attack.

‘If this goes wrong, Baekrangdae and Cheonangambu may end up in an all-out war.’

I wasn’t worried about running out of power.

If the members gathered here attacked all at once, they would have been able to wipe out at least the White Rangdae, which had no demons.

The problem was that if a collision occurred with Baekrangdae, the aftermath would not be small.

Currently, the Cheonan Government and the Senate were in a confrontational relationship.

It happens at a moment’s notice.

I didn’t know that if I recklessly engaged in a sword fight with the Baekrangdae, I might end up giving the elders an excuse.

If that happened, Yeonsun would be in a very difficult situation.

Because a clear justification will be placed in the hands of political opponents.

‘There if.’

Cheolongseong (鐵甕城) has no gaps to be found.

Especially for assassins, it could be said to be a natural enemy.

The effectiveness and versatility of the sound technique was not comparable to that of general martial arts.

Puff poop!

While I was distracted by the sound waves coming from all directions.

Three arrows hit my shoulder, waist, and knee.

The Cheonan inspectors who were waiting all rushed toward Cha Seong High School, who had collapsed, letting out a high-pitched scream.

Some time passes.

“.......”

Cha Seong-go, who was in complete disrepair, was overpowered by Hyeoldo and ended up being dragged around by the Cheonan Gambu members.

The members of the Baekrangdae looked at the scene with shocked expressions.

* * *

Noon.

An unscheduled meeting was held.

The air in Maengjubu’s conference room was extremely cold.

It was because of two people arguing with a sharp confrontation.

“They did it in the Senate before, and they did the same thing again this time.”

“What are you saying?”

“Are you asking because you don’t know? “I’m talking about the incident in which the Cheonan Inspectorate officers stormed in and arbitrarily took away the members of the Baekrang Unit!”

“It was to capture the ganja planted by the Demonic Cult.”

“Having a reason doesn’t justify your actions! “It looks like you didn’t reflect at all during your probation period!”

While the executives of the alliance were watching, Namhakgeom and I glared at each other and exchanged words.

Those watching could not have even dreamed of it.

That Namhakgeom and I are performing a play according to a pre-written script.

This is why I was scared of politics.

It was impossible to understand the essence of the matter by only looking at its surface.

Because there is no way for anyone other than the person involved to know what kind of plan is hidden in each trivial remark or action.

“So, are you saying that an official letter requesting cooperation should have been sent to the Baekrangdae first before dispatching the members?”

“Of course it should have been. “There are clear procedures and rules.”

“Wouldn’t it be a big deal if Ganja felt anxious and ran away?”

“Isn’t it a big deal that Baekrangdae and Cheonan Kambu almost started an all-out war? Do you know how surprised I was when I heard this story? “I heard they even launched an attack without prior warning!”

“In the end, it ended well without any major damage.”

“Isn’t that just a consequential story? “I’m saying the process is wrong!”

Namhakgeom is gradually raising his voice.

Looking at his red-hot face, I felt like he was really angry.

Other elders probably thought this way.

He’s turning his arrows at me to cover up the fact that Ganja came from Baekrangdae.

“What Namhakgeom said is right.”

“Lord! “This must not be overlooked!”

Several elders agreed with Namhakgeom’s words and uttered one word at a time.

I cleared my throat and slowly looked away.

I almost pursed my lips and laughed.

Perhaps because they thought it was an action to embarrass the elders who had spoken earlier, those who were closely watching my reaction looked displeased.

Joo Hwa-baek, who was quietly observing the situation while tapping the table with his index finger, finally opened his mouth.

“It’s hard to listen to you any more.”

“......?”

“How long are we going to keep criticizing each other and fighting?”

“Lord Hawk.”

“Aren’t there things we need to discuss before deciding between right and wrong? It turned out that so many ganja were hiding in the main altar, but it seems like the people here didn’t feel anything, right?”

“.......”

“I can only sigh as I see them focusing on belittling the achievements of Director Cheonan Inspector throughout the meeting. “Isn’t it shameful!”

what?

I ended up with a blank expression on Joo’s unexpected words.

What did this guy eat wrong?

Why is this happening all of a sudden?

What can we do if we are shown to be so blatantly biased towards one side?
