The World’s Best Childhood Friend Episode 922 (922/1020)
“Where on earth have you been?”
As soon as I entered the residence, Gubong looked at me and said this.
Not only that, the other disciples were also looking at me with anxious eyes.
“I just went for a walk.”
“…Suddenly…?”
“uh.”
“…”
Gubong looks at me with a suspicious look at my answer.
It seemed like he didn’t believe it.
Of course, but that doesn’t change anything.
What can you do if you don’t believe it?
“What are you looking at? Do you have time? You don’t have time to do this.”
“For whom… .”
“what?”
“no….”
Even as Gubong speaks, he makes a troubled expression.
It seemed like something was bothering me.
“It’s fortunate that your Majesty has returned. You won’t be able to leave right away anyway… .”
The expression was quite dark.
“Perhaps since we’ve already touched Baek Do-ryeong, the White House has already set up camp-.”
“That’ll be okay.”
“…hmm?”
Gubong narrowed his eyes at my confident words. Will it be okay?
“What is that…? Why do you think so…?”
“Oh, I heard it while I was walking.”
He answered Gubong’s question with a sly smile.
“It seemed like something big had happened outside.”
“…?”
Gubon tilted his head.
*******
The streets of the bustling Yawol Palace were filled with a much more chaotic atmosphere than usual.
-What’s going on?
-How did this happen all of a sudden…?
-No, you still haven’t heard that?

Half-beast-like humans were gathered together and talking.
There is an inexplicable anxiety and tension in their eyes.
There was no choice.
-They said the chief was attacked.
-What…? The chief? Who on earth was attacked?
-I heard you’re the Baekwol chief…?
-her…?
The four clans that make up the night sky.
Among them, the master of the White Family is said to have a particularly violent temper.
He is a warrior who is blessed by the moon and runs wild, and is so wild and ferocious that people say that just looking at him makes your flesh tremble.
Everyone was surprised that it was Baekwol, of all people, who was attacked.
What’s more,
-They say he barely resisted.
-Is that the Baekwol chief?
-Yeah, you said it wasn’t even a surprise attack?
-That’s nonsense… .
The rumor gradually spread.
The speed at which it flowed outward and into the crowd was so fast.
– Then, who on earth did the attack?
-Well? I asked your employee… What did he say? Ah.
Heavenly Demon.
-That’s what he said.
-Cheonma…? What is that…?
In the midst of all that chatter.
Gubong kept frowning.
“… This is.”
What on earth is going on?
Gubong couldn’t understand the strange sight.
‘… Baekwol was suddenly attacked?’
When it comes to Baekwol.
‘He must be the head of the White Family?’
A pureblood superior with long, rough hair and blue eyes. That was the Baekwol that Gubong remembered.
-It’s half-baked. It’s useless.
“…”
A soft voice penetrates Gubong’s thoughts.
Advertisements
It felt like hidden memories were coming back to me.
‘… slap.’
He shook his head, his fist clenched. I wonder when he was thinking of that story.
There’s no need for that anymore.
He has changed. He is different now than he was then… .
-He just ran away.
“…”
Gu Yangcheon’s words intervened.
Gubongi, who remembered that, tightly shuts his eyes.
“Phew… .”
The sigh I exhaled was terribly deep.
When Gubong was stopped in his tracks, feeling slightly dizzy.
“I said it before.”
Shudder.
Gubong’s body trembled at the sound of the voice.
Because it was like a voice that just came to mind.
“Do you have time to fool around like that?”
“…”
“I think I should go right now. Or not?”
I opened my eyes that had been closed at Guyangcheon’s advice.
It certainly was.
‘… Things have turned out well.’
It was nothing more than beating up a nobleman.
Moreover, it is a White family directly related to the contract.
Even without that, Baek Do-ryeong would have been displeased with himself… .
I expected that he would use this to his advantage.
‘In this situation.’
If my chief had been attacked and was in shambles, it wouldn’t have been the time to be concerned about such things.
So Gubong frowned.
‘…How could things turn out like this?’
The circumstances under which the incident occurred were strangely fitting.
As if he had done something to ensure that he could get out without any problems.
“…no way.”
Gubong stopped walking and looked at Guyangcheon.
Surely not.

‘…Did the author attack Baekwol?’
Perhaps they intentionally created an opening by attacking Baekwol.
That thought comes to mind though.
‘No way.’
Gubong immediately denied it. No matter what, it was too much.
He is the head of the White Clan. He is known to be a formidable warrior in terms of strength.
‘The nobleman defeated him?’
And in that short period of time? Gubong thought it wouldn’t be like that.
but.
‘…no way….’
I don’t believe that either, not completely.
Gu Bong-i looks at Guyangcheon with suspicious eyes.
“What are you looking at? Look ahead.”
“…”
As Guyangcheon growls, the gaze naturally dies down.
I felt it and flinched.
Why are you so nervous?
My pride was hurt, but I didn’t turn my head away.
As I approached the entrance, the chaotic atmosphere was clearly visible.
“Move! We have to find him!”
“Don’t let them go outside carelessly!”
The men who were guarding the gate were also looking around with nervous expressions.
Gubong frowns at the sight.
‘If it goes on like this… I don’t think I’ll be able to get out.’
You won’t be caught directly, but once the raid starts, you’ll have no choice but to control who goes out.
Is it even possible to go out in this situation?
As Gubong was hesitating with such doubts.
“excuse me.”
“…!?”
Out of the blue, Guyangcheon spoke to the gatekeeper.
He’s already busy, but his expression suddenly crumples when I talk to him.
“What are you doing?”
“Oh, I need to go outside. I was wondering if I can go out now.”
The gatekeeper’s expression became even more crumpled at Guyangcheon’s words.
“Don’t you know what the situation is right now? There’s no way I can get out-.”

“Hey, don’t do that.”
As he was speaking, Goyangcheon handed something to the gatekeeper.
The gatekeeper who received it flinched.
“… Ahem… .”
“We have a proper contract and we received the goods in good condition, so can’t we just leave?”
“… A contract? What the… Ah.”
Without saying a word, the gatekeeper checks Guyangcheon’s clothes.
“Volcano, are you here for groceries?”
“That’s right. I’ve already finished all the work… How could it not work?”
“No matter what… . That’s what getting things done is.”
“Hey… Don’t do that… .”
As he speaks, he puts one more in the gatekeeper’s hand.
“… Ahem… .”
After receiving it, the gatekeeper’s expression continued to relax.
“You know what? Why would a volcano have the power to attack you, sir?”
“… That’s true too.”
“So please don’t be like this and be flexible… You know what?”
“Ahem… .”
The gatekeeper, seemingly persuaded, steps aside and points to the entrance with his hand.
“-Check it properly.”
And then he pretended not to notice and looked elsewhere.
It was an implicit message to pass quickly.
“Okay.”
Gu Yangcheon’s expression disappeared, he looked at his disciples and waved his hand.
“let’s go.”
What the heck? Gubong couldn’t even understand the unexpected situation.
Why does that work? It’s ridiculous.
He went out pulling the cart.
The disciples still look dumbfounded.
How on earth did this come about?
Gu Yangcheon, who was looking at everyone’s questions, said.
“It would be good if you came out, why are you all hesitating?”
“… No, your highness. What on earth… .”
At Gubong’s question, Gu Yangcheon clicked his tongue and said, “Tsk!”
“There is nothing in this world that you cannot ask for kindly.”
Advertisements
“… That can’t be true.”
If it had been such a peaceful world, it wouldn’t have come to this, Gu Bong says firmly.
When Gu Yangcheon heard this, he just laughed.
“That’s because you weren’t kind.”
“what-.”
“Kid, kindness isn’t an attitude.”
Goyangcheon makes a shape with his fingers and shows it to Gubong.
Roll it into a ball using your index finger and thumb.
It was called Manryuguijong.
Or maybe it was called an immutable law.
“Money.”
If the world is not kind, it is because there is not enough money.
Guyangcheon gave money to the gatekeeper.
“…”
Gubong’s expression darkens when he hears that.
That means.
“Are you saying that you gave a bribe…?”
“A bribe? I said it was kindness.”
“no….”
Gubong, who was about to speak, stops.
It’s all good. It’s good that they got over it by bribing.
“… Where did you get the money?”
How on earth did he get the money to give to the gatekeeper?
As far as he knew, there could be no money in the Guyangcheon River.
How could something like that exist when you’re a human who doesn’t even know what the Night’s Gate is?
if.
“Did you steal it…?”
Did you steal the money?
At Gu Bong’s words, Gu Yangcheon narrowed his eyebrows.
“What are you talking about, you crazy bastard? What did you take away? Who do you think you are as a thug?”
“…”
“…What’s with those eyes? Why don’t you deny it? What the hell?”
“…”
Why don’t you deny it? Are you asking because you don’t know?
“Then you stole it….”
Advertisements
“Would you like to get hit?”
“…”
What if it’s neither?
If you didn’t steal or rob, then where on earth did you get the money?
“Tsk, I got it just right. It won’t cause any problems, so don’t worry about it.”
Goyangcheon clicked his tongue and stepped forward.
Gubong still looked at him suspiciously, but there was no real situation to be suspicious of.
It wasn’t stolen or anything.
only.
‘I just made it.’
Created using the power of the net.
I briefly looked up the form and value of money and confirmed it.
It wasn’t that difficult. It was just a little annoying because it was different from the central plains.
He came out, handing it to the gatekeeper.
‘It should be gone by now, though.’
The money you gave me like that would have disappeared over time.
He’s probably having a seizure because he thinks it’s been lost or stolen.
‘That’s how it came out, though.’
I looked back. The castle called Yawol Palace was getting further and further away.
‘… I guess.’
I felt like I had to go again.
Realizing this, I tried to take another step.
“…the darkness that the sky gave birth to.”
“…”
“Son of the universe.”
Cheonma muttered so that only I could hear.
This is crazy.
I tried to ignore it and barely managed to move forward.
********
Hwaruk.
At a time when the lights embedded in the wall were barely illuminating the darkness.
A man in black clothes was walking quickly.
The man bit his lip as if he was in a hurry and moved, and ended up in front of a large door.
“Phew.”
He takes a quick breath to erase the look of impatience.

since.
dripping-.
The man knocks cautiously on the door with his hand.
Despite the noise, silence continues.
dripping-.
I knocked twice again.
Is it silence this time?
The moment the man was about to knock on the door again.
-Who is it?
A voice was heard from inside the door.
The man swallowed his breath slightly and spoke in a dry, murky voice.
“This is a warning, sir. I have something urgent to tell you….”
-Come in.
Squeak-!
As soon as permission is given, the door opens.
It wasn’t a man who opened it.
Yeom-eon pushed her trembling toes into the open door.
Whoa whoa whoa.
At that moment the light disappeared.
A terrible darkness comes over Yeom-eon. All he can see is the table in front of him.
And there was someone sitting there.
It was painted so black that you couldn’t even see the face.
I wasn’t curious.
Anyway, Yeom-eon immediately knelt down and didn’t look at the man.
It’s literally dark.
If you look at it for too long, you will be painted black yourself.
“What’s going on?”
The darkness asked.
Hearing that, Yeom-eon answered while hiding his cold sweat.
“… The White Chief was attacked and is currently in a hospital bed.”
“Hmm?”
Shows interest in Yeom-eon’s words.
“Baekwol?”
“Yes… that’s right.”
“To whom?”
Advertisements
If you were hit, who hit you?
Rather than hearing that Baekwol had been harmed, I was more curious about who had done it.
“… We still haven’t identified it.”
I couldn’t figure it out. The air shook slightly at those words.
The leader must have been feeling uneasy.
Yeom-eon, who felt that, quickly added.
“Ha, one. This is not the problem.”
At Yeom-eon’s words, the air became still. It did not stop.
This is waiting.
It’s as if he’s telling me to say something.
“Today… . It is said that the white bloodline has changed.”
“If it’s blood relations. Are you talking about that guy?”
Despite being of noble blood, he was an incompetent person who didn’t even need to memorize his name.
“you’re right.”
“however.”
“But… about that…”
Yeom-eon swallowed his saliva for a moment and then said.
“The first prince… is said to be involved.”
Woohoo.
“Ugh…!!”
Yeom-eon stopped spitting out words and grabbed his heart. The surroundings shook violently.
“okay?”
In the words that darkness spits out.
“That’s interesting.”
Despite his calm tone, he seemed to be filled with anger.
