Episode 393: Bond of Friendship (2)
Yu Seol sat down in a guesthouse with two heads of the family from Anhui Province.
It had been a while since the food was served, but the atmosphere was extremely quiet.
This is because the heads of clans with different inclinations kept their mouths shut.
An even worse rumor pointed to Namgung Cheolhu.
“The head of the Namgung family should talk to me first. Why did you hate each other?”
“Can I be honest with you?”
Yu Seol nodded as if there was nothing to think about.
“It’s okay, so I’ll tell it like it is.”
Namgung Cheolhu glanced at King Munjong, who was sitting close to him, and expressed his grievances.
“Why would you do this, Lord Hoe? In fact, this person is a stooge of the Four Sects representing Anhui Province and has committed countless unscrupulous acts.”
Kuuk-!
It was the sound of Munjong, who was quietly listening, clenching his fist.
If Hoeju wasn’t sitting across from him, he would have swung it long ago.
But before that, Yoo Seol hit the table with his chopsticks and shouted.
bang-!
“You can’t talk like that! Have you already forgotten the rules!?”
In Cheonyuhoe, there was no distinction between political and non-partisan factions, and the principle was to forget past benefactors.
He was caught up in Hoeju’s questions and unknowingly made a serious mistake.
“I’m sorry.”
“The apology should be to the head of the family, not to me!”
Yu Seol strengthened his eyes and looked intently at Namgung Cheolhu.
“....”
When the situation reached this point, the face of King Munjong, who was wearing a bamboo hat, brightened and an expression of conversion appeared.
I felt like I wanted to smile and cheer, but how could I show it? I gritted my teeth and endured it.
“Ugh.”
Namgung Cheolhu, who was looking at that scene, bit his lip.
He had to apologize with his own mouth to the Black Snake Light Sword, whom he considered his lifelong nemesis.
But he had no choice.
“...I’m sorry.”
“good job. This time, let the head of the Moon family talk about it. “What happened in the past?”
King Munjong glanced at the stunned Namgung Cheolhu with a bright smile and opened his mouth.
“I just defeated the mean and pretentious political faction bastards. Among them were the henchmen of the Namgung family. Besides...”
King Munjong, who had been telling the anecdote without thinking, was startled.
This is because Hoeju was looking at him with the intention of emitting rays of light from his eyes.
“You just called me a tomboy!?”
“That’s just...”
Yoo Seol looked at Namgung Cheolhu with his trembling fists clenched.
“I don’t stand by when someone criticizes my family. “Isn’t that right?”
“That’s right. “No matter how dirty your mouth is, isn’t this going too far?”
King Munjong, whose face had turned ashen, could not raise his head.
Yu Seol nudged her face towards him and asked in a whisper.
“Cheon Yuhoe is all family, right? Yes?”
“That’s right.”
“If the head of the Namgung family is my family, then the Namgung family is also my family. “Then who is the head of the Moon family insulting now?”
“I committed a deadly sin against the family of the Lord of the Society.”
Yu Seol leaned back on the chair again and crossed his arms.
“Then say that you are sincerely sorry. Or fight me.”
King Munjong, who was wearing a bamboo hat, closed his eyes tightly.
Then, he began to kiss his lips that would not fall.
“...I am sorry that King Munjong of this dark sword has brought shame to the Namgung family. “I will make sure something like this never happens again in the future.”
Didn’t I know he would say something like this? Namgung Cheolhu looked at him with a puzzled expression and cleared his throat.
“Hmm! “Well, that much...”
As the awkward atmosphere flowed, Yoo Seol grabbed the bottle and filled their glasses.
The glass of Yoo Seol, who does not drink alcohol, was already filled with white milk instead.
“Now then, everyone who empties this cup will become friends. “Only people who want to drink will listen.”
For some reason, they both immediately grabbed their drinks without hesitation.
What more do I need to say?
The three of them exchanged glances for a moment and began gulping down their glasses at the same time.
widely-!
The moment the three of us put down our glasses on the table. Moonjong said, wiping his lips with his sleeve.
“The alcohol tastes really good. And what I said to Namgoong a little while ago was sincere.”
King Munjong of the Heuksa Light Sword is a famous drinker and does not make false statements when drinking.
When he first showed his sincerity, Yoo Seol looked at Namgung Cheolhu.
Namgung Cheolhu, who hesitated for a moment, quickly nodded his head and said.
“From now on, if someone insults Brother Moon in front of me, I won’t just sit back and watch.”
Only now will we truly understand each other.
Yu Seol smiled brightly and waved one hand at Jeom So Yi.
“Mister, here are two more bottles of alcohol!”
* * *
The next morning.
The group who came out of the guesthouse went straight to the Murim Alliance’s gun room.
Contrary to the leisurely rumors, the faces of Namgung Cheolhu and King Munjong showed signs of anxiety.
“Yes, one step~”
Doesn’t that mean he doesn’t stop there and just keeps walking?
“dare!”
The Great White Dragon, whose face was red, extended his sword forward and signaled.
As the swordsmen of the White Dragon Corps approached, Yu Seol shook his head.
“It’s not like that. “If you mess up with your sister, you’ll get scolded.”
Wherever crowds gather, there are always curious people.
The three energetic White Dragon members began to rush towards Yu Seol from the lead.
Ta-tat-!
“Fuck you, bitch!”
“die!!”
The sharp tip of the sword darted towards Yu Seol’s vital spot.
But Yu Seol didn’t even give them a look. Because it wasn’t even worth avoiding in the first place.
“Ouch...”
An amazing scene was unfolding before my eyes.
The swords that the White Dragon members were wielding stopped before attacking.
Moreover, their expressions were changing all the time. This is because his body did not move at all, regardless of his will.
His eyes were shut as if his body was fixed on something invisible.
But that wasn’t the end.
When Yu Seol waved his right hand once, their new form ‘boomed’ into the air.
“Ugh!”
“Tsk!”
“Kaaak!!”
They were thrown back by an unknown force, and the three pieces flew and rolled around on the floor.
dump-!
The White Dragon members who were charging after them momentarily hesitated.
They instinctively sensed that they were not a being they could deal with.
There was an inexplicable silence accompanied by a suffocating tension.
After a while, someone’s shout was heard from behind the White Dragon members.
“What are you doing if you’re not attacking!?”
Finally, the senior leader of the Murim Alliance has arrived.
A white-haired veteran led other members of the White Dragon Corps and rushed towards Yin Kai.
The movement itself was different from the crews I had encountered so far.
Yu Seol glared at him who was approaching silently without moving.
After a while, the gap between the two narrowed to less than a day.
Suddenly, Yu Seol’s palm shot up like lightning towards the sky.
“Eight!”
Wow-!!
Noh Go-su, who was hit on the chin, bounced in the opposite direction faster than the speed at which he was running.
He flew as many as a dozen feet and landed awkwardly on the roof of a certain building.
Kwaaang-!!!
I was struck by a single blow without even being able to scream.
When the situation reached this point, the members of the White Dragon Team began to visibly panic.
“...This can’t be right.”
“Is that the shaman?”
What if the absolute experts who are rallying to the political battle come flocking to us? The fierce warriors alone could not do anything against Yin Kai.
“Tsk. “If you don’t get out of the way, you’ll get scolded.”
As Yoo Seol clicked his tongue and rolled his eyes, the members who were blocking his path retreated to the left and right.
There was no one to stop them anymore.
Even at this moment, numerous crews were flocking in, but everyone just watched. The sight of them arriving at the entrance to Jeongmujeon.
After a while, Yoo Seol arrived at the entrance of the grand palace and spoke softly to the back.
“The heads of the family prevent anyone from coming in here.”
For a moment, Namgung Cheolhu and King Munjong could not believe their ears.
“yes? What do you say, Lord Hoe?”
“I didn’t hear what you said.”
Even at this moment, aren’t countless warriors of the Murim Alliance staring at them?
Guarding the entrance against them. Even with his wrists tied.
Nevertheless, Yoo Seol’s decision was firm.
“I’ll be back soon, so just hold on until then.”
Sigh-!!
In front of everyone, the head of Cheon Yu-hoe disappeared alone into a political battle.
Inside, the elders of the Murim Alliance will be gathered.
No one could predict what would happen there.
And the two heads of clans left behind were flinching as they looked at the numerous warriors of the Murim Alliance.
“Hyung Moon. “Please tell me that this situation is not real.”
“I’m dumbfounded too, but I guess we’re done here. “I had a good time last night.”
The gathered warriors of the Murim Alliance seemed to have no intention of leaving the two alone.
Is he trying to make up for the humiliation he suffered a while ago? Numerous swords were closing the distance towards them.
Kuuk-!
Namgung Cheolhu and King Munjong held hands.
It was to ensure that the bond of friendship that Hoeju had tied was not broken in the midst of the melee.
And then, with the other hand, each person raised their sword.
The great leader of the White Dragon Corps began to give attack orders.
“Those guys are the Namgung Cheolhu of the Namgung family who betrayed the Murim Alliance and the bastards of the Sapa, the Black Snake Light Sword! Kill them!!”
