Episode 210: There is an order to things (3) As
Changryongdae retreated, Baekgyu approached in confusion.
Both hands were still on his waist, as if the tension had not yet subsided. He was in a position where he could pull out his twin swords at any time.
“Brother, who are they? They seem to be high-ranking officials, but how could there be so many experts like that...”
“Ah. They must be seeing their younger brother for the first time. “They are executives from Changryong University.”
Baek-gyu craned his neck and asked back, as if he had never imagined it.
“Is that true? “Why did such big guys come all the way here?”
“It was because of the blood messenger. Let’s go inside first. “There’s a lot to talk about.”
Jinsan Yu entered the manor with Baekgyu.
Their favorite place was always the pavilion in front of the pavilion. The view of the mountains in the distance was spectacular, and the cool breeze also made me feel good.
“Did he keep his promise?”
“That’s right. “He committed suicide after giving me some information.”
“You mean you killed yourself?”
“I don’t know why. “He ate the food I made and died.”
“What a strange guy. “Have you had any income?”
Jinsan Yu nodded and continued his explanation.
He told Baek Gyu everything that had happened so far.
About the interrogation of the blood messenger and the information obtained from the Great Lord Changryong.
Baekgyu’s expression changed every moment as he listened to the story.
He was also a person with great responsibility as the commander-in-chief of the Apostolic Alliance before becoming the head of Paedomun. This may be because they know that the current situation is serious.
“Are you saying that that incredible guy was just one of the Eight Great Protectors?”
“I thought that with that level of skill, I would at least be within one finger of the ranking. “I confirmed it with the Great Lord Changryong, so it must be true.”
“It seems like this problem is more serious than I thought.”
“Even if the Murim Alliance, the Four Soldiers, and the Changryongdae join forces, we will not be able to guarantee victory or defeat.”
As expected, Baek-gyu reacted with difficulty.
“Don’t you know well, brother? Our Apostolic Alliance can never be together with the Murim Alliance. Even if I have to bite my tongue and die.”
“How can I not know? “It means that we also need arrangements.”
“Is there any good way?”
Jinsan Yu crossed his arms and pondered.
After a moment of silence. He spoke slowly.
“The biggest problem is that their attacks will come from all over.”
This was information I heard from the Great Lord Changryong. The story was that they were trying to conquer the martial arts with a quick decision.
“What does that matter?”
“How can we defend the whole thing? “Most of it will collapse except for the places where the experts are gathered.”
“If you follow what my brother said, even if I win, I don’t think I won.”
“That’s right. So while there is still time, we must train the best elites to defeat them. “As much as possible.”
Baekgyu tilted his head and asked back.
“Wouldn’t it be helpful to at least get past the peak? “How do you quickly train such experts?”
Jinsan Yu said with a faint smile.
“Aren’t children born with the best qualities gathered at Paedomun now? “I think I’m stronger than your subordinates now.”
These were children brought from Amisan.
There are as many as three hundred masters of sword techniques. Some of them are also skilled in swordsmanship, and some of them have reached the highest level.
“That’s right. However, until now, I had been neglecting it as requested by my brother.”
I had told them not to let the children get caught up in the Moorim incident until they were ready.
But you can’t avoid storms forever.
Murim was a place where once you set foot, you could not escape, regardless of whether you wanted to or not.
“Now is the time when we can choose our own path. Accept children who wish as formal disciples. But it shouldn’t be compulsory.”
Most of them were two or three years older than Yuseol.
Even if we look at it on average in the martial arts world, it was time for him to break away from the ranks of youngest members, so he was no longer considered young.
“I understand, brother. “We will accept all children who wish as disciples of our Paedomun.”
Even if I became an official disciple, it wouldn’t have changed much. You have the opportunity to learn the martial arts of a monk in earnest and begin to follow the rules of the school.
It was not a cause for concern as the children had already adapted to the Paedomun culture.
And it was time to break up.
After hesitating for a moment, Baekgyu spoke out the last words he had kept.
“And brother. “There is one piece of top-secret information that has recently become known only to executives of the Apostolic Alliance.”
“I don’t know what it is, but it’s okay if you don’t feel burdened. “Because I fully understand my brother’s position.”
“But I think it would be good for you to know.”
“Um... you decide.”
Baekgyu took a breath and then spoke softly.
“It seems like Geomhu has returned to the central plain.”
Jin-san Yu opened his eyes and asked again.
“Is that really true?”
Who is Geomhu? He was the supreme leader of the previous martial arts world who retired and left for heaven.
My relationship with my grandson was also deep.
Although it was only a one-time encounter, she was a welcome noblewoman who cured her chronic illness and gave her granddaughter a chance to learn.
“This is news I heard directly from Lord Ryeon, so it must be certain.”
Her appearance was like a new variable in the current gloomy market situation.
I had to find out for what purpose he came back to the midfield.
Anyway, it was good news after a long time.
At that time, Yoo Seol, who had been silently following along with a stick, spoke up.
“Sister Soso?”
“You mean my sister? “How do you know the afterword?”
“I know. “My sister told me I was pretty and hugged me.”
This happened when Yoo Seol was only two years old.
Do you remember what happened back then? It was truly an unimaginable memory.
“I’m sure you remember our Seol.”
What Geumhu Soso and Yuseol have in common is that they both have the constitution of Seonumjiche.
Therefore, she must also have a memory that exceeds that of a normal person.
“really? “I want to see you~”
At that time, Jinsan Yoo said quietly to Baekgyu.
“If you ever get the chance, it would be nice if you could arrange a meeting between the two of us.”
“Are you saying that Geomhu and Seol will meet?”
“Don’t you say you miss me? “Anyway, it will be really beneficial.”
Of course, it wasn’t a simple intention.
No matter what she has in mind, there will probably be something helpful to both of us.
More than anything, I had a strong intuition that we had to meet.
“hmm. I will at least make an excuse and tell you about it to Lord Ryeon. “But I can’t guarantee.”
“Thank you. But don’t overdo it.”
After all the guests had left, Jo-Son was having a private time for a long time.
I made the dongpo pork that my granddaughter wanted to eat.
For the first time in a while, he was able to demonstrate his skills using his family’s secrets.
“Eat slowly, baby. “Is it worth eating?”
“Yes, it’s so delicious! “Grandpa, hurry up and try it~”
Yu Seol picked up the meat with chopsticks and held it out.
I didn’t really have an appetite, but how could I refuse?
Yu Jin-san, who accepted it quickly, said with a happy smile.
“Whoever made it is really delicious. But did you hear what I said earlier?”
“Didn’t Grandpa ask you to invite Soso for Seol’s sake?”
“Thank you, grandpa.”
“Hmm. “Is that it?”
Yoo Seol closed his eyes while chewing the dongpo meat.
“Yes? “Then what do you have?”
Eugene San cleared his throat and continued saying what he couldn’t say because of the guests.
“Hmm. “I actually have a favor to ask.”
