Episode 115: Children of Mt. Amisan (4)
Today, training seemed to be replaced by a lucky breakfast.
It was natural that normal training would not proceed. Five of the instructors were dead, and the rest were also in bad condition after being beaten by the warden.
Jinsan Yu, who had an opportunity, first collected information through conversation with Cheongpung.
Information about the structure and instructors here. And there were various training methods and rules. Among them was some shocking content.
– Only 100 people can become members of the Changryong Team?
Cheongpung, who was sitting cross-legged next to him, nodded.
-Your grandfather. Also, I heard that 50 people will be drafted separately and that if you are included, you can become a reserve member.
Given the circumstances, the reserve members would be tasked with kidnapping and training children from all over the central plains for the next rider. Like the guys who attacked the head of the Yu family to kidnap his granddaughter.
‘Anyway, if you don’t make it into the hundred and fifty, you won’t be able to survive.’
It was said that seventy percent of the children here were destined to die. Moreover, even if you become a Changryong University student, how can you live a normal life?
These were children who had not yet lost their innocence. I could never let that happen.
Eugene San closed his eyes for a moment and was lost in thought.
‘All the children here can use sword energy. If we take over the armory first, it might be worth a try with the instructors.’
Of course, there was a prerequisite that the children must unite. It may be impossible now, but it was something worth trying if more people followed him.
And one more thing.
The most important thing was how to outwit the warden. Even if we attacked him as a group, he wasn’t an opponent we could do anything about.
– How did you get your friend to escape? I wouldn’t have been able to outrun the warden.
– There are times when I am away.
– how much?
– He always came back the next day.
If what Cheongpung said was true, that day was an opportunity.
– How did you figure this stuff out?
– On days when the warden is not there, there is no training and the instructors gather together and eat something.
Jinsan Yu looked at Cheongpung with an expression of pride.
I can’t believe they conducted such a detailed investigation in such an environment. He wasn’t usually a smart guy.
– Your brain is as sharp as your martial arts skills. It’s not as good as my granddaughter’s, but it’s very good.
– Does your grandfather have a granddaughter?
– huh. He’s probably about three years younger than you. If we had come together, we wouldn’t have had to worry about this.
Cheongpung, not understanding the meaning, tilted his head.
– Are you strong?
– You probably can’t even imagine. I can’t come with you because I’m in the middle of a closed-door training right now, but if my granddaughter comes here, she’ll all die.
– Wow...
Is it because I met someone I can rely on for the first time? Although they had only met for a short time, Cheongpung had deep trust in Jinsan Yu.
Yujinsan also didn’t like the blue wind.
When the day got a little dark, Yujinsan quietly stood up.
– I’ll take a quick look around, so please wait.
– Where are you going?
– I don’t know when I’ll have another opportunity like today, so I’ll take a look.
The purpose was to learn the structure of this place by taking advantage of the instructors’ lack of supervision.
I was confident that I wouldn’t be discovered if I just avoided where the warden was staying.
There was nothing to worry about because the approximate location had already been confirmed through Cheongpung.
– I will go with you.
– It could be dangerous.
– Don’t worry, I’m the best at stealth here. It won’t be a hindrance.
Jin-san Yu had already noticed. The children were even being trained in the art of killing.
It seemed like Cheongpung, the most talented and clever person here, would be helpful.
He thought for a moment and then nodded.
– Be careful and if something goes wrong, run away first.
– yes.
The only places where children were allowed to move were the barracks and back rooms.
The two secretly came out and looked around.
Fortunately, there was not a single instructor in sight.
There were three barracks facing each other in the shape of a poom (品), and a tent with all four sides closed was installed in the middle of them.
The voices of adults muttering softly could be heard from inside.
– That tent is where the instructors stay and monitor. But something is a little strange.
“Shouldn’t someone stay and protect those poor things? “This is not the time to be stubborn, so let’s move on.”
Eugene San pulled Cheongpung and headed towards the entrance to the training ground.
In front of the cave leading to the waterfall you entered.
Two instructors were guarding the entrance with their backs turned.
Yu Jin-san, who hid himself, first explained to Cheong-feng the way to Sima Hyeon’s residence.
– You can do it. Did you understand?
– Yes...
Yu Jin-san nodded and took a breath.
At that moment, a whistle sounded from somewhere, signaling a summons.
Now that there was a little bit of commotion, it was a perfect opportunity.
Taaa-!
He jumped out at once and immediately targeted the instructor on his left. Because he seemed completely caught off guard.
“What is this...”
The instructor opened his mouth in shock, but it was too late to defend himself.
Because Yu Jin-san was already holding out his palm from his waist.
Yuga Gungonjang’s one-second diet, one wave, and one muheun (一破無痕).
Tsk-!!
“Keuuk!”
It was a herbivore with high destructive power by maximizing its strength.
The blow, which contained tremendous power, knocked away three pieces of him.
At that time, another instructor next to him grabbed his sword and quickly attacked.
“You crazy guy!”
The sword energy was attacking so mercilessly that it was difficult to block it with bare hands.
Yu Jin-san, who had no weapon, began to dodge his attacks by shaking his upper body.
There was no need to prepare for a counterattack. Just in time, a small shadow was secretly approaching behind the other person’s back.
Quang-!!
It was the sound of Cheongpung’s fist hitting the instructor’s lumbar spine from behind.
“...Off.”
The instructor’s movements stopped for a moment. And Eugene Mountain was not the one to miss that gap.
The sharp blade struck the opponent’s throat mercilessly.
Byak-!!
After killing the two instructors in an instant, the two said their final goodbyes.
“There are a few nuns guarding the area below Geumjeongbong, but you should be able to break through.”
Cheongpung’s eyes filled with tears as if his steps were not falling.
“...grandfather.”
Jinsan Yu picked up the instructor’s sword that had fallen on the floor and placed it back in Cheongpung’s hand.
“It’s not the guy crying. Hurry up and leave. “I have to go back quickly too.”
If other instructors were to notice the situation here, Yujinsan would not be safe either.
Since Cheongpung knew it well, he could not hesitate any longer.
“I will definitely come back.”
Jinsan Yu waved his hand with a kind smile.
“Don’t worry about this place, just go.”
The back of Cheongpung, which was moving away, looked solemn.
After a while, the child disappeared from sight and Yu Jin-san also quickly turned his back.
‘I’ll have to try everything I can.’
The reason Cheongpung was sent was just in case.
There was a belief that Yoo Seol would quickly learn the Unwritten Master’s Skills and come out, but it was impossible to guarantee.
Before that, if there was another way, I wanted to find it and try it.
When we returned to the barracks, all the children were standing in line.
They all look tired and nervous.
And one of the instructors who was standing behind him spotted Yu Jin-san and glared at him.
“Where have you been?”
Yu Jin-san responded by slyly dancing his pants.
“I had a stomachache for a while, so I went to the back yard.”
The instructor rolled up his sleeves and approached me as if he had been waiting.
“You come here.”
