The World’s Best Childhood Friend Episode 919 (919/1020)
The place I returned to after leaving Gubong behind was the building I had been in before.
Fortunately, it wasn’t too far, and I had memorized the route, so it was easy to find. However, it took a while to get there.
The reason is.
‘I’m still angry.’
Because there wasn’t enough time to untie the hair that had grown all the way to the tip of the head.
‘Damn it.’
The more I think about Gubong, the more irritated I become.
‘I should have just thrown it a little harder.’
So much so that I couldn’t even wake up and couldn’t come to my senses.
I should have prepared it so that I could prepare it after half a year. I was disappointed that I couldn’t do that.
“Hoooo… .”
He sighed and ran his hand through his hair.
Of course, that didn’t make me any less angry.
‘Even that kind of guy is my disciple.’
I tried to look at it favorably because it seemed like Noya cared for him. Or maybe I was a little sorry that he had torn it up.
‘What are you doing with such a idiot?’
All those feelings subsided in an instant.
It was the moment when Gubong finally gave up his pride and knelt down.
bang.
When I roughly open the door and go in, everyone inside is startled.
Before I knew it, there were more people inside than before.
These are the disciples we saw earlier and those waiting inside.
They are busy rolling their eyes at me.
The meaning of the expression was simple.
‘Who the hell are those guys?’
Although I could clearly feel that expression, I put aside the explanation and pointed to one person with an annoyed face.
“there.”
“Uh, yeah? You mean, me?”
“Yeah, you. Come here.”
As I kept snapping my fingers, the person I was pointing at came over with a bewildered look on his face.
The guy was the disciple who had raised his voice and confronted the man who was called Baek Do-ryeong or something earlier.
“What was that guy just now?”
“yes…?”
“There’s that guy called Baek-something. He’s like a life-size bastard. What’s he like?”

When I asked what the guy just before was, his expression changed to a puzzled one.
Rather than an expression that said, “Why are you asking that?”, it was closer to an expression that said, “How come you don’t know that?”
“Explain quickly.”
As I growled and frowned, the guy flinched and opened his mouth.
“Pear, I am the successor to the White House.”
“The White Family?”
“Yes… There is a person there named Baekul.”
Baekul. I think that’s the name of the guy named Baek Do-ryeong.
Okay, that’s enough, next thing.
“What is the White Family?”
“yes…?”
“If you ask me again, I’ll pull out your tongue so you can’t do it again?”
“…These are the three major noble families that exist in the Yawol Palace.”
“Three generations… Is that great?”
“… That’s… That’s right. It’s one of the few pure-blooded families that directly receives the protection of the general…”
Pureblood maintenance. It’s a word I hear so often that it’s annoying, but what’s important is what comes after it.
General’s protection?
“What is a general?”
“…?”
“expression.”
“Ah. Yes… .”
He looks like an idiot, but when I point it out, his expression softens.
Only then did I ask again.
“What is the general?”
“You are the four beings under the Lord of the universe… .”
“…hmm.”
I narrowed my eyes. I am under the master.
Every time the topic of my mother came up, I was quite hesitant to react.
So I try to ignore it and then ask what’s going on.
“… And the nobles?”
“It refers to the pure-blooded people that the general has protected.”
“And that pureblood guy is Baek-something?”
“Yes… that’s right.” “Is being a general or a noble that so great? Something to be so afraid of?”
“…”
“Fuck, expression.”

“… The word of those who are protected by the country is law. It is only natural, since they are chosen by the master himself.”
hmm.
When I hear that, many thoughts cross my mind. The fact that I can say that without even a shudder means that what I said is true.
The idea that it is natural because it is the master’s choice may also be considered natural here.
That means.
‘Here, the master and his subordinates are in a considerable position.’
I’m being treated as something much greater than I thought.
underneath.
“Why do those guys have friction with volcanoes?”
“that….”
The disciple who had been speaking looked around. It seemed like he was considering whether to speak or not.
At that moment, I was thinking of forcing him to open his mouth because he kept hesitating.
“Okay, let me explain….”
A voice came from behind. It was Gubong, who opened the door late and came in.
I glanced at the guy.
His expression was quite rotten and he seemed to be thinking a lot.
“… The Volcano Sect… has no pure-blood members and most of them do not even receive protection from their master, so they do not have much power.”
“I didn’t receive any protection….”
I’m not exactly sure what that means, but judging from the reactions of the gatekeeper and the white guy I saw when I came in, I can tell that this is a pretty big deal in this world.
“This is also a problem that arose because the long-time leader took pity on us, who were lacking, and accepted us without rest… ”
The disciple’s eyes were filled with sadness as he spoke.
“Of course, the General’s protection. Since these people have gathered without the Master’s permission… . After all, the eyes of the world are…”
“therefore.”
I interrupted my disciple and said:
“I think it’s a shame that there are so many people gathered here, so I ignore them. Is that what you’re saying?”
“…”
The disciple’s face was distorted as if he had answered correctly.
“So you’re going through all that trouble just to exchange groceries?”
“There’s nothing I can do… . I barely made it through this… .”
“No. Everything is fine.”
There was something I didn’t understand.
Well, I know that Gahogo, Janggun, and Nabal are in bad shape, and I understand that.
“Does your elder brother know about this situation?”
“…”
Does Shin Noya know that his disciples are going through something like this? I could only answer this part with certainty.

‘I don’t know.’
Given that old man’s personality, he would never have stayed still if he had known.
“…I don’t think you know the details.”
As if to prove it, the disciple answered in an awkward manner.
As expected.
then.
“Why don’t you know? It seems like a structure that you can’t not know.”
“Your Majesty… It must be because you are forbidden from accessing other countries.”
The answer to the question was not given by the original disciple, but by Gubong.
“It’s forbidden?”
“That’s right. Jang Moon-in is not allowed to approach other countries, let alone interfere in their affairs.”
“why?”
“Because that is the contract that allows the volcano to exist.”
“Hmm… .”
Hearing that, I vaguely remember what happened last time.
Was it the leader? That black calf said something.
‘Did you say that you were breaking a contract or a promise?’
Noya had argued about that statement, saying that it wasn’t true.
“So Noya wouldn’t know since he can’t go anywhere else?”
“Yes. The long-suffering man probably doesn’t know… and I hope he doesn’t know.”
“why?”
I asked with a question about Gubong’s words. It was strange that he said he hoped I didn’t know.
“You are the one who embraced us and raised us with love when we had nowhere to go… I don’t want to worry you any more.”
I held back a look of contempt at the words, “I raised you with love.”
And he asked with a blank face.
“Is that why you keep saying that I should be the only one to kneel?”
“…”
Gubong’s silence was affirmation.
haha.
I burst out laughing when I saw that.
I thought about it before, and it’s the same this time.
“fool.”
“…”
Gubong didn’t say anything to me either.
‘What? You don’t want to worry me?’
Advertisements
It’s not even funny. It’s just so absurd.
“You guys, you don’t know anything about that old man.”
“what….”
“Do you really think that old man doesn’t know anything about this?”
How could that be?
There was no way that a quick-witted and wise old man would do that.
‘I was wondering why you sent me.’
Now I know for sure.
‘You’re like a fucking old man.’
Are you saying that since you can’t do it yourself, you’re going to make me do it?
It’s ridiculous.
I walked with that in mind. At the same time, I looked at Cheonma and said.
“Don’t follow me and stay here quietly. If you follow me, you’ll get screwed.”
“…”
The horse, which was already about to move, stopped in its tracks.
When I suddenly move, Gubong looks at me and asks.
“…Your Majesty. Where are you going? You should go back to the volcano right now-.”
I answered without even looking at the bastard.
“I’ll go and pay for the meal, so wait.”
Now was the time when I had to run errands that I didn’t even know about.
**********
A huge mansion located east of the Yawol Palace.
It was a place that others called the White House.
People rushed in and made noise.
“Emergency-!”
“Your Majesty is injured…!”
Suddenly, chaos came over the interior and people came in carrying someone.
Baek-ul, the heir to the family, is carried in by his escort with his face a mess, and those who see this gather in panic.
“The Lord is in danger…! Call a therapist immediately!”
“Move quickly!”
“Ugh… .”
A huge commotion breaks out.
Baek-ul continued to bleed from his mouth, and the servants had to run around with pale faces.
Are you worried that Baek-ul got hurt? No. That was absolutely not important.
What they were afraid of now was not the white wool.

Even though he was the heir to the family, he was still just an heir.
What they are really afraid of now is….
“What’s going on-.”
A low voice shakes the inside.
After hearing that, all the servants stopped moving at the same time.
At that moment.
Krrrrrrrr-!
A soft roar like that of a tiger is heard.
Living with him was overwhelming.
“Ugh… Ugh… .”
“Cough… .”
Everyone fell to their knees at the sensation of their throats being strangled.
Among those who can’t control their bodies properly, someone walks slowly.
Every time he moves, his pure white hair sweeps across the floor.
It was extremely long and coarse hair.
Moreover, since the creature’s physique was only about eight feet tall, its hair appeared to be comparatively longer.
The being that had passed through the servants looked at the fallen Baekul.
As soon as he sees that, a vein appears between his eyebrows.
“What’s going on?”
“Sir… Chief…”
“I asked what was going on.”
Krrrrrrrr—!!!!
As the man spoke, a roar was heard.
The whole building shook at that voice.
“Eek… .”
The man’s body trembled as he heard the question. His body was gradually being crushed by fear.
“Answer me.”
“… That… That…”
Kkeuggeuggeuk… The man dug his nails into her trembling body. If she couldn’t answer like this, she would die. It would be better to be in pain.
I had to come up with an answer somehow or I would die.
So the man forced his trembling mouth open and spoke.
“… Fire, fire… mountain…”
Two words. I just spit those out and lose consciousness.
Thud. The man fell to the floor.
“volcano?”
Advertisements
The eyes of the being who heard the words burned blue.
“under.”
The corners of his mouth went up roughly.
“Those bastards dare….”
Even though I showed mercy and compassion to you, you still did this?
Kwak-!
The being turned around, clenching its large fist.
“Where are they now?”
“I just finished the transaction, so I’ll be leaving the palace soon with the city and groceries.”
“okay?”
The corners of the man’s eyes went up when he heard that.
“Tell me. I have to come find you and tear you to pieces myself.”
The name of the being is Baekwol.
He is the head of the noble White Family and a general of the Night Moon Palace. He was Liu Shi’s apostle.
