Episode 346
“Yes?”
At Jinmu’s sudden declaration, a panicked voice bursts out in the Daejeon Pavilion.
Hwangsin and the children had faces that did not understand the situation itself, and the heads of the Demonic Sect, including Il-il Goechung, couldn’t help but be embarrassed.
“Do Dongcheon Lord. That’s not going to happen.”
In response to Il-il’s question, Jinmu sips tea with a nonchalant expression.
“what?”
“What? What kind of nonsense are you talking about asking for a ranking match in the current situation?”
“....”
Request a ranking match to Neung Seo-hyeon in Sadongcheonju.
There is nothing wrong with that in itself.
rank war? can apply Because Jinmu is capable enough.
But timing is an issue.
Ranking matches were permitted only twice a year.
It was customary to hold a ranking match on a set day and notify everyone to get notarized, and there was no case of a ranking match taking place on any other day.
“...Dongcheon Lord, this is impossible. Even if it is unavoidable for Dongcheonju to change, it is necessary to obtain approval from the head of the church. If you ignore this, Cheonsan...”
“I forgot that bastard already.”
Jinmu, who snorted and cut off some of his words, looked at the crowd.
“Did you guys forget what I was about to do?”
“...”
“As I said before, I am a person who wants to fight on an equal footing with Bukri Docheon. You said you don’t need ashes.”
yes it was
It’s not that I don’t know that this nobleman is such a person.
“However, there are laws that must be obeyed.”
The law says the same thing. are you jeongpa?
“If you try to destroy the system that has supported the Demonic Cult, the entire heavenly mountain will move.”
As if sympathizing with Il-il’s heavy voice, the pest nodded with a serious expression from the side.
Jinmu looked at the two for a while and then smiled.
“They? Maybe you can’t move?”
“...yes?”
“You did that before. If you don’t get official permission from Bukri Docheon, Cheonsan will move.”
“Yeah.”
“So did you move?”
“....”
“Did that bastard Cheonsan or the religious leader ever contact you?”
“No, that’s...”
“That’s it.”
“but.”
“What do you keep doing? You have to run when you start. But because of this, but because of that. If you start chasing everything, there is no end. Don’t talk nonsense, just trust me and follow me because I made the decision.”
“...”
Despite Jinmu’s decision, the faces of Il-il and the pest were full of displeasure.
Really, how far do I have to make them understand this...
“Tsk tsk, anyway, Suhara doesn’t even know the owner’s personality properly.”
“Personality?”
“Why does North Lidocheon seem to be standing still?”
“....”
“It is true that Bukridocheon is concerned about the power of the Twelve Dongcheons uniting. If it wasn’t for that, I wouldn’t have put my servants in Dongcheonju. But worry and fear are different things.”
“....”
“People like us are usually similar.”
I can’t understand what Jinmu is saying.
someone like us? What kind of person is that?
“I’m waiting.”
Wait... wait? what?
Il-il, the pest, and even the emperor and the children looked at Jinmu’s eyes with a curious look.
to wonder
No wonder.
I don’t know about the pest, but Il-il will run wild, saying that he can’t even get a knife in his throat.
Anyway, this is the problem with a guy whose loyalty has become excessive. Deni Won keeps trying to speak directly. You say the right things, but you can’t beat them.
“What are you doing? Do you have a lot of time?”
When Hwangshin didn’t move, Jinmu glared at him slightly and added an evil remark.
“...All right.”
The Emperor lowered his head as always.
I don’t know what’s going on, but even if things went wrong and I died next to him, that was also something to look forward to.
Even the emperor and the children had left, and Jinmu, resting his chin on the place where only Wooyangjin remained, smiled sinisterly.
Seohyeon Neung.
An iron woman who confidently competed among the men and rose to the Dongcheonju with a single golden arrow.
It touches that confidence and pride that will surely overflow.
If you don’t appear in the yard where other Dongcheonju are watching, it’s obvious that you will be pointed at as a coward.
I have no choice but to run because of face rather than pride.
What about the other Dongcheonju?
You may have laughed at the absurdity only when you announced your intention to challenge the seat of power, but you can’t help but feel threatened when you see Neungseo-hyeon and Sadongcheon, which are ranked twelfth in the hierarchy, collapse.
Then you will have to choose. Will they unite against Jinmu or climb Cheonsan holding Jinmu’s hand?
That way, you don’t have to go around annoyingly occupying this place.
No matter how much I do, to learn such an amazing strategy from a child.
When I thought about it, I wondered if he was doing well when he said he would challenge the big village leader?
“Yangjin.”
“yes?”
“I need to meet them then.”
“...?”
In any case, it would take a day or two to prepare for the departure.
I should give the child who gave me a big realization, at least a lifetime purchase ticket.

Food is good.
Letters prepared at the center of the Hocheon branch flew to various parts of Xinjiang.
Each of the burly fighters changed direction and stared at the flying globes, then took off their tops to reveal their brown muscles.
“Two!”
His firm determination was contained in the saliva he spat out in the palm of his hand, and the three-cheok-long drumstick with cloth tightly bundled at the end of the birch wood was vigorously swung along with the movement of his muscles.
Wow!
A tough drum made of taut cowhide is struck by a drumstick and resonates, making the mountains and streams resonate.
Whoa!
Taking over the sound of the drums, the leading warriors blew long horns cut from buffalo horns, and the following warriors raised their spears and swords in unison.
Steps toward the battlefield to attack the Sadongcheon Hyeoncheon branch.
“Six Dongcheon! Let’s go!”
When Il-il and the puppet announce the march, the spirit of the unmanned soldiers who step out in unison shakes the ground.
But it wasn’t fast.
The horses slowly trampled the ground, and the soldiers advancing after them were slow and solemn, like a royal procession.
As if they were announcing their advance to the mountains and rivers and making known to all people, they walked slowly to the sound of drums and horns.
“The emperor.”
“yes!”
Hwangshin responded politely to Jinmu’s low call.
“You don’t have to be fast. Get enough rest and get moving. Tell them to rest every ten miles and organize camp every hundred miles.”
“....”
“And give them enough wine and meat to hold a party every night. Do you know what I mean? I’m going as slow as possible If you’re bored, tell him to take a look at mountains and streams.”
“All right.”
The Hwangshin, who answered, turned around and gave the order to Il-il and the puppets following.
Jinmu laughed in satisfaction.
A road of about four hundred li to the Hyeoncheon branch.
They inform Sadongcheon of their advance with the sound of a drum and wait for the Twelve Dongcheonju, who received the message, to come running out of curiosity.
To show them who you are.
In this way, Jinmu left the Hocheon branch and moved towards the Hyeoncheon branch, where Sadongcheon’s headquarters held out, at a very slow pace.
