Episode 360: Pride of a famous family (1)
The Ark’s residence in the drawing room.
Baek Yo-ran was sitting cross-legged in a dark and quiet room.
Her complexion was pale and she looked so haggard that it would not be surprising if she died at any time.
But what it seems like is only appearance. Inside, the energy of life was overflowing.
‘Now that I have absorbed the energy of the Millennium Snow Flower, I can finally cure this terrible incurable disease.’
He was able to survive thanks to the yin-yang twin monsters bringing the requested items in time.
No, it is not just about being able to maintain life.
It was a situation where an enormous amount of energy was shaking in the dantian to the extent that it could not be controlled.
It soon circulated throughout the entire bloodstream and began to bring amazing changes to the body.
Wow-! Wood-duk-!
Every bone in my body was twisted.
And there was no way Baek Yoran could not notice this process.
‘A complete metamorphosis at this late age... Will my old and weak body be able to withstand this process?’
Her worries didn’t last long.
Because the human body, full of mystery, has undergone another change to protect itself.
The skin on my entire body was constantly peeling off, like a snake shedding its skin.
A drastic physical change that feels like turning back time.
It was very clear what that meant.
‘Can’t it be true that I also go to Banro Hwan-dong like my brother San!?’
A lighter physical sensation and a vigorous heartbeat.
Youth beyond the vitality of his prime was felt in every cell.
The question was how long this change would continue.
‘If possible, I wish I could become just 50 years younger.’
Soon, I felt the energy of the Millennium Lunar New Year flower circling through my entire body gradually fading away.
We may be approaching the end of the anti-Roh turnaround.
It wasn’t over yet, but I was so curious that I couldn’t hold back.
Baekyoran’s blue eyes, which had been closed, slowly revealed themselves.
‘Is this really who I am?’
Because I couldn’t move my body yet, what I could see was limited.
However, both hands as beautiful as white jade and slim, moist wrists were clearly visible.
A person of this size would probably be in his twenties or thirties.
If the anti-Roh turnaround ends in this state, what more can one wish for?
Baek Yo-ran, who had regained her youth, could not control her joy. Until now.
Suddenly her eyes opened wide as if they were torn apart.
“Ha!”
A moan escaped from my mouth without me realizing it.
This is because a huge amount of energy suddenly poured in due to a power outage.
‘What is it? ‘What is this incredible energy?’
Clearly, the energy of the Millennium Lunar New Year flower had almost disappeared.
The new energy that was shaking inside my body was something I had never felt before.
It felt like the warm energy of a fire.
What on earth does this mean?
Due to that energy, the anti-Rohwandong movement, which seemed to have stopped, began to proceed again.
‘Stop, stop!’
The eye level is lowered little by little.
And even the forearms that gradually become thinner.
It wasn’t difficult to figure out what these changes meant.
The body has returned to the size it was when it was in its prime.
And in that state, like a lie, the anti-Rohwan movement stopped. This is because the energy that was fluctuating within the body evaporated at once.
I didn’t know what happened, but that wasn’t important right now.
When everything was over, a clear and refreshing voice flowed from her mouth.
“...I became a kid?”
* * *
An empty lot about 30 miles away from where the drawing room is located.
Eugene San was squatting there and stirring the floor with a tree branch.
It seemed like he was bored waiting for his granddaughter.
“I’m back, grandpa!”
From a distance, my granddaughter was running with her back to me.
Because there was no way to explain it.
After a while, Seok Mun-hyuk arrived at the workshop in the front yard and was very surprised.
“What is that?”
Isn’t there some kind of strange creature lying in the yard?
A four-legged beast covered in scales with a horned dragon head.
It was a ferocious appearance that could only be seen in ancient murals.
And next to him, a beautiful girl with a small face and big eyes was smiling brightly.
“Nice to meet you, Grandpa.”
“Hmm...?”
“I came here after being introduced to you by Mr. Namgung-hyeon. “I heard this place has the best armor-making technology?”
Seok Mun-hyeok’s son approached him and whispered to him in a low voice.
“I don’t know the English language, but if the Grand Duke of the Namgung family connected me, I think I can trust him and accept the request.”
His voice did not even reach Seok Mun-hyuk’s ears.
I was already mesmerized by the sight of a giraffe for the first time in my life.
“Kirin... Are you asking me to make armor out of it?”
“that’s right. “I also brought a spirit stone with me.”
When Yoo Seol gave a glance, Yu Jin San, who was watching from behind, took something out of his pocket and held it out.
It was a spirit stone taken from the body of a giraffe, a bead that gave off rainbow-colored brilliance.
“How in the world can you get these ingredients....”
“Can you make it for me? Invincible giraffe armor.”
Seok Mun-hyuk was unable to answer and was trembling.
He looked at the giraffe and the spirit stone alternately and spoke to his father-in-law next to him in a trembling voice.
“Bring my personal tool kit.”
“Yes sir!”
After a while, two craftsmen came carrying a box and placed it in front of them.
It contained a lot of special tools used by Seok Mun-hyuk.
He picked up a red-colored hammer from among them.
Then he started hitting the giraffe’s body mercilessly.
Kwaang-! Kwaang-! Quang-!!
Even though I hit it several times with all my energy, there wasn’t even a small scratch.
After confirming this, Seok Mun-hyuk put down the hammer and grabbed the giant tongs again.
Soon after, he grabbed the giraffe’s scales with it and started pulling with all his might.
“Big!”
The tendons in both his arms swelled to the point of bursting.
I whined for a long time, but in the end, I couldn’t make any changes.
“how is it?”
Seok Mun-hyuk took a deep breath and shook his head.
“I’m sorry, but we cannot accept requests.”
Yoo Seol, who had been looking forward to it, asked with a puzzled look on his face.
“What do you mean? Do you know how hard we worked to get here?”
“I can’t help it. “This is a material that cannot be handled by human power.”
“Why? “They say Shakyamuni is the best armorer in the world!”
Seok Mun-hyuk sighed and said.
“Didn’t you just see it? To make armor from this material, you must first remove the scales one by one. But since he won’t budge, what can I do...”
Seok Mun-hyuk couldn’t continue speaking and opened his mouth.
No sound came out of his mouth, which was fluttering like a goldfish.
Because an unbelievable scene was happening before my eyes.
“Aaaah!!”
Yin Kai was tearing the giraffe’s scales with both hands.
Incredibly, he does it by force and without even tools.
“....”
“See? “I’ll take the scales off.”
Seok Mun-hyeok, who had been dazed for a moment, came to his senses and said.
“Ha, but there are more ingredients we need. “Most of it is in our Shijiazhuang, but we need more than one bundle of Cheonjamsa.”
Cheonjam thread (天蠶絲) is a thread that can be obtained from a spirit creature called Cheonjam. It is well known as an expensive material that never breaks and is very difficult to supply.
However, whether it was Chanjamsa Temple or Manjamsa Temple, the rumors were none of their business.
“Grandpa. “Hurry up and go to grandma and borrow it on credit.”
Yu Jin-san, who had been watching indifferently, asked in shock.
“I? “You want me to go to the drawing room alone?”
“Yeah. I have to get the scales off here.”
